Chapter 28 Remnants of the Old God
In a very safe situation, getting it has nothing to do with me Satisfied Shade turned to leave, and planned to tell Dr. Schneider what he had learned today.

But at this time, the woman's elegant murmur sounded in her ears again:

[You touched 'Enlightenment'. ]

He stopped and frowned, the [Enlightenment] element is related to civilization, but the strong Mystic Art and the traces of incantation may also lead to its appearance, but here
standing on the pipeline The narrow space between the wall and the wall, because this is a dead corner, there is no garbage, but more animal feces.

Shade surveyed the wall in front of him, almost covered in chalk and paint with all sorts of dirty words and shapes that represented the organs of privacy, among other things he didn't want. Strange traces of imagination.

The only two spirit runes he had were not able to enhance his eyesight for the time being, but what really made him different from ordinary people was his ability to read almost any text.

Below the abusive sentence, above Shade's waist, some strange patterns were caught by the young detective's eyes. He saw it as words, and sure enough he got the meaning and pronunciation of those words:
"appearance."

The ancient language used six syllables to express such a simple meaning .

In the thin mist, a white light flashed in front of Shade. He stepped back, but still put himself in the gap between the pipe and the wall.

The curious cat was awakened by the white light, and the person holding it saw a dilapidated stone statue slowly rising from the ground.

Its base is square, and the statue is half the height of Shade, a caped aristocratic man with bat wings.

Shade closed his eyes, letting the tears of blood spill from under his lids. He covered the cat's eyes, turned around quickly, and heard a murmur in his ear, it was a murmur of joy, reciting a story he had never told: The remnants of Duke Laurel". ]

[The old gods born from the original filthy blood, thirsty for blood, and crazy because of it. In the twilight of the old days, he developed his family with the curse of blood, blinded his soul by the curse of blood, and roared in the depths of the castle in the dark night. ]

[You listened to the story of the old god "Duke Lauer of Vampire", and you learned about one of the Miracles of the old god "Duke of Vampire Lauer". ]

"Can I engrave spirit rune?"

After a while, confirming that there is only this information, Shade, who came out of surprise, asked in a voice full of anticipation, because he came into close contact with it. All the headaches caused by the statues of the old gods are relieved.

Then, Shade heard the woman's voice in his heart chuckle:

[You have obtained the spell, the echo of blood. You haven't acquired enough stories belonging to this god, outsider, Miracle is not so easy to get. ]

The murmured voice in my heart fell silent, and the old god statue conveyed new power to Shade. The life ring hidden behind the soul rotates, absorbing a little golden element, making the brass ring stained with gold particles, and condensing the spirit that belongs to the soul.

Shade's right eye suddenly turned blood red, and he gained the power to see the imperceptible remnants of blood.

After fully understanding what was happening at the moment, Shade didn't check the power he gained first, but first checked the cat he was holding in his arms.

Although the cat and Shade saw the whole process of the appearance of the statue of the old god, fortunately, the cat's eyes were attracted by the scattered white light at that time, so it was not observed at the same time as Shade. The full appearance of the statue of the old god. Therefore, apart from being a little sluggish, Mia did not suffer the same mental shock as Shade.

And the power that Shade gained, to put it simply, his right eye can now see the imperceptible bloodstains left on the air and the surface of objects when the spell is actively activated.

This ability can also be achieved in Shade's world through some technological means. But when he used the spell, he didn't need an instrument, he just needed to open his eyes, and as long as there was blood left, no matter how weak it was, he could see it.

Although this is not a powerful ability, it is an unexpected match for Shade's detective career.

Shade has never heard the name of the old god "Vampire Duke Laurel". In fact, he has never heard of any old god except the "Father of the Infinite Tree".

The story of this old god makes him not sound like a good god. This judgment is completely correct, so after obtaining the spell and story, the voice in his head also reminds Shade that he is touching the element of silver [Blasphemy], which is an element that only Evil God has.

But I don't know if he himself didn't have a deep perception of the old god [Blasphemy], or the power of this stone statue with a base is more inclined to [Miracle], Shade did not learn from [Blasphemy]. any gain.

But the harvest of the spell is also very good. Mystic Art needs to have a corresponding spirit rune to use, and the spell does not need to pass the spirit rune. It is a general mysticism ability for ring warlock. Because it is "universal", the effect of spells is often not as good as that of Mystic Art, but in fact, some spells also have usage restrictions.

From the doctor's notes, the spells obtained through contact with the remnants of the old gods cannot usually be learned by other means.

So, Shade is a rare spell for nothing, but unfortunately the effect is not very obvious.

Now that the benefits have been obtained, the next step is of course to leave immediately.

Shade couldn't take the Old God statue with him, he didn't even dare to touch it directly with his skin. The existence of the stone statue is obviously related to Mrs. La Suoya, and the old god statue impossible exists naturally in the city, which must be brought to this alley by the other party to hide.

The act of bringing the Evil God statue into the city like this is a serious illegal act, so Shade finally judged that Mrs. La Soya is not a good person.

So he read the six syllables of the ancient text meaning "appearance" in reverse order, making the statue of Evil God slowly enter the ground again.

Only then did he cautiously slip out of the alley, and without even thinking about saving money, he boarded the carriage at the next intersection, without any hesitation, took the cat and headed towards Schneider in the eastern district of Tobesque. Departure from the doctor's psychological clinic.

But unfortunately, Dr. Bill Schneider was not in the clinic.

People in the clinic also knew Shade, who was invited by the doctor yesterday, so Dr. Clay, who was in charge of receiving him, informed Dr. Schneider where he was going.

The wife and daughter of an unnamed count in the city recently developed bulimia. Count's personal doctor thought it was a psychological problem, so Dr. Schneider was specially invited for diagnosis and treatment. Dr. Schneider will spend the night at Count's manor outside the city, and at least he won't be back today.

As for the manor's address and count's surname, Shade cannot be told to protect the privacy of the patients.

"But Mr. Hamilton, you can leave a note for Bill, and he'll see it when he comes back."

Dr. Clay said kindly, but refused to reveal it. count The location of the manor.
