Whispering Verse

Although she had danced with Shade more than once, Iluna was still a little nervous when the two came into contact. Her colleagues from the church were also at the Fire Worship Festival banquet, so she could only find the area outside the bonfire to dance with Shade.

Like Shade, who is not very good at dancing, Iluna's dancing level is not very high either. But they had skipped many times, so now under the moonlight, in front of the forest at the edge of the bonfire, they were happier than those people in the light of the bonfire.

"Louvia asked me to say hello to you."

Shade whispered, dancing and talking about how he was certain that the person who sealed the passage to the top of the mountain was a crazy phoenix.

In fact, the church has also investigated this point. Even before Iluna arrived at Fort Midhill, it had sent three groups of ring warlocks into the narrow room and found the approximate location of the passage at the top of the narrow room.

"The top of Mount Sikal in the material world is a beautiful mountaintop lake, but the top of the mountain is a terrifying crack. The church has not yet determined where the terrifying crack on the top of the mountain leads to, but the closer it gets, The stronger the power of death, the stronger the power of death. There is reason to believe that the Phoenix and the passage are at the bottom of that crack."

Iluna also revealed the information she had, and then accidentally stepped on Shade.

"It doesn't matter. So what about the chosen ones? I can only confirm now that the candidates for the chosen ones of death are among Priest August, Sister Devlin and the strange boys from the Crow Club. Luvia got the information, It is confirmed that the [Spiritual Order] is a branch of the Ancient Death Church, so now Sister Devlin is the most suspicious..."

he said again.

Iluna carefully controlled her pace and moved to the music in the distance:

"This time the church is progressing faster than you and Luvia. There were at least four candidates in the city when I arrived at Fort Midhill."

"so much?"

Even if the three candidates provided by Sha De are all right, there is still one unknown person missing.

"The church has determined the number of people, but not the candidates. I saw some fragments of the poem locally, which was a handkerchief used by the Witch Emperor. The characteristics described in it are that the true chosen ones will save the city. . Moreover, one of the talents of the chosen ones, in addition to the special eyes you find, is that they can almost resurrect from the dead. This is the talent of the first candidate, and I am not sure if the candidates who follow in the pick have similar ones. ability."

"Is that so? Doesn't Priest August fit the bill? Well, now the suspicions of Priest August and Sister Devlin are almost the same."

The wind blows through the treetops, making a rustling sound, which reminds people that it is now late autumn.

"But you still can't rule out others."

Iluna hugged Shade and whispered, and then added:

"Professors from Zarath, Serkses and St. Byrons have also arrived, and they also have some fragments of the Psalms. Although there are not as many parts about death as the Five Gods Church, there may be clues. Wait until I have access to that part of the poem and will tell you again."

"Okay, that's a good idea. Iluna, when do you have time, come with me into the mountains to touch the statues under the ruined tower. After finally arriving at Fort Midhill, road signs must be set up."

Only ring warlocks or any officially chosen person who possesses the "Space" spirit rune can use [Space Maze]. But except for Shade, no matter who it is, they can only establish road signs by contacting the statues of gods in different locations, instead of sacrificing white stone crystals like Shade.

"Wait until you have time. I just got here and I was a little busy."

After hesitating for a moment, Iluna looked up at Shad. She had the average height of a normal human woman in this era. She raised her head slightly at this moment, allowing her to see the three moons above Shad's head:

"This time, can we and the church solve the problem? Just like the night of God's descent in Tobesk and the Darkness incident."

She was a little worried, after all, she was only seventeen years old.

"It's no problem, it must be no problem."

Shade also looked at the girl dancing with him. Even though he was not sure, he still nodded firmly:

"May the sun and balance be with you, Iluna."

"May the moon be with you too, Shade."

Nothing new happened in Fort Midhill that night. Shade and Iluna danced three times before they separated. After dancing with the girls, Shade finally had time to play Rhodes.

Captain Rades welcomed Shade very much. Although there was no bet, Shade also saw the city's card players and interesting special cards here. It wasn't until the fireworks started to go off and it was almost eleven o'clock that Shade left the Fire Festival banquet and went home.

Compared with the lively Midhill Fort tonight, the royal capital Tobesk City is much calmer. To the residents here, tonight is just an ordinary night.

It was already twelve o'clock when we got home. Luvia had already left early because she had an appointment to meet someone at the black market tonight to inquire about the special coins. Therefore, it was only little Mia who greeted Shade.

Put the scabbard given by Granny Cassandra and the [Night Watch] together and hang them in your bedroom. After washing up, he went to bed and got ready to rest. Tomorrow (Wednesday), he planned to go to the [Sin Mansion]. If everything went well, Luvia might be able to lock in the first overall pick this week.

The autumn night in Tobesk was so quiet, and in the dim bedroom on the second floor, both Shade and the cat slept soundly.

The curtains were closed tightly, but a gap was left, allowing the faint moonlight to shine in from the window. The moonlight is not strong, but it is so reassuring and calm.

In the quiet night, at some point, the orange cat huddled next to the pillow suddenly trembled, then opened its big amber eyes and looked at the top of its head in confusion. In the dark environment, the cat's eyes seemed to be glowing, and its expression at this moment seemed to have encountered a completely incomprehensible problem, as if it did not understand why Shade always went out.

The small cat stood up from the pillow, but before it could make any move, a new light source suddenly appeared in the room. It was the [Night Watcher] that Shade hung on the wall as a decoration. The sword vibrated slightly and emitted a silver light.

At this moment, Shade, who was looking up at the moon in his dream, suddenly heard a voice in his ear:

[Maybe you should wake up. 】

"Um?"

Shade opened his eyes in the darkness. It seemed that he was observing the huge silver moon above the fields in the wilderness just now. Therefore, in a trance, he actually thought that he had seen through the floor and higher ceiling upstairs, and saw the reality at once. night sky.

But with just a blink of an eye, the illusion disappeared. He sat up from the bed and was surprised to see the sword above the bedside table glowing and buzzing. He also saw Mia making a threatening expression towards the bedroom door with a "ferocious look". The cat even All a bit fried.

"What's wrong?"

Because he was the only one in the house, Shade didn't have the habit of closing the door when sleeping. After the incident in the dark realm was over, he had the ability to barely see in the darkness. At this time, looking at the living room outside the door, he could only see a thin layer of white mist gradually dispersing, sweeping the white mist. The edge of the fog even touched the bedroom door.

"What is this?"

He gently stroked Mia's back with his hand to reassure her, then left the bed while trying not to make a sound, and got the long sword. For the convenience of movement, he did not put on slippers, but walked barefoot on the floor. Noticing that Mia also wanted to follow, he pointed to the bed and signaled the cat not to move.

This very smart cat understood what Shade meant, so he really lay down on the bed and looked at him pitifully.

Shade holds a long sword in his right hand. The sword body is still emitting a faint silver light, and the civilized yellow light of the sword talisman is even more conspicuous:

"What exactly happened here?"

The white fog stopped at the door of the bedroom and did not come in, but the fog outside the door became thicker and thicker, even worse than the fog in Tobesk when the summer pollution was at its worst.

With the sound of the bell and the whistle, the life ring behind Shade was completely revealed. He took a deep breath at the door and inhaled the white mist outside the door into his lungs:

"What's this?"

【fog. 】

He nodded, passed the door and entered the living room with a long sword in hand. The sword in his hand no longer vibrated, but the string of bright yellow runes on the sword became brighter and brighter.

Shade squinted his eyes and looked at his specious living room, and then heard wet footsteps coming from the doorway connecting the living room to the stairs. The voice was very similar to the mermaid he had encountered in Coldwater Port, but upon closer inspection, it was different.

Holding a long sword and facing the door of the living room, green flames appeared floating in the white mist, and the cold and damp wind, as if it could freeze the bone marrow, blew along the ground. The miserable green light became stronger and stronger, so much so that the entire fog in front of him was reflected into a penetrating green.

At the same time, the sound of palms slapping against the wall appeared from above. Shade looked up and saw a string of red footprints forming on the ceiling above his head.

"This is best a special effect caused by the power of the spirit affecting the space when the evil spirit appears. If you really dare to pollute my ceiling."

"Meow!"

[There is something behind you. 】

When Mia's warning and "her" voice came from behind, Shade also felt the biting wind blowing towards his neck. Before the body could react, the long sword in his hand actually turned around and stabbed back with the sword in his right hand. The silver light on the sword body completely converged, but the bright yellow runes became extremely shiny at this moment, so much so that they were in the air. Leave a trail of light.

The spirit body with seven orifices bleeding seemed to have used space power to move behind Sha De, and was stabbed into the head by the sword in Sha De's hand. Shade didn't even have to attack anymore, the evil spirit just collapsed.
