The Whispering Verses Chapter 87: The unfortunate doctor
In the night outside the window, there is actually the garden of Dawn Church. Shade could see from the window a huge holy symbol of [Mr. Dawn] made of blooming flowers in the middle of the garden. The holy symbol was illuminated by a circle of candles on the edge of the flower bed.
He breathed in the air outside the window and said after a long time:
"I was also present when the doctor used the word of sublimation. The power was a bit too scary."
"Of course. Generally speaking, using the word of sublimation requires the coordination of large-scale rituals and magic potions to exert the strongest power. And even if it is used with preparation, it will definitely lead to a permanent decrease in lifespan and loss of power. Decline and short-term decrease in mental resistance, there is even a saying that using the power of sublimated words will make it more difficult to engrave spiritual runes. Bill used it with a certain death mentality this time, if it were not for your spell. , his situation would probably be even worse. Probably the woman who confronted us at the time didn’t expect him to be so crazy.”
The priest sighed.
"So how many times has the doctor used the word sublimation?"
Xia De inquired again, and got the answer for the first time.
After asking about the doctor, he talked about the other two girls in the group:
"Miss Anat is at Miss Louisa's place now? Do you know Miss Louisa's address? I think I should go see them."
Actually, he couldn't let go of the matter of "The Whispering Psalm" and "The Thirteen Chosen Ones", and he wanted to see the purple-eyed soothsayer immediately.
"When we go to see Bill tomorrow, can't we see him?"
Although Priest Augustus said this, he still gave the address and continued the topic:
"The situation last night was not bad. Anat terminated the ceremony in time, and you did not collapse in front of the shadow of the evil god. Even the 'Mrs. Lasoya' who saw our appearance was beaten to death by you."
The conversation has progressed here, and finally it came to the blow under the silver moon last night. Shade considered his words and wanted to speak, but the old priest shook his head with an I-understand expression:
"Everyone has their own secrets, just like I also have secrets that I can't tell you, so if you don't want to explain, you don't need to explain, we will keep the secret for you, and no one will know that the person under the silver moon is you. .
But I want to advise you, young man, power comes at a price. I don't know what it cost you to do what you did last night, but don't be tempted by power. ”
"Yes, sir."
Xia De answered seriously, but couldn't help but ask:
"Since you mentioned that Mrs. Lasoya is dead, what about the Silver Eyed One? Will [Mercury Blood] be destroyed because of this?"
He still remembered that the Silver Eyed One was protecting "Mrs." Lasoya.
"The man with silver eyes was seriously injured, and then ran away from the church's siege before the ten-ring warlocks from this parish arrived. Not long before you woke up, I heard the news that the church suspected that the man who ran to the New World decades ago [Blood Spirit School] sent people to help them, haha~another group of crazier lunatics came."
Shad heard the two professors from St. Byrons talk about the [Blood Spirit School], and the man who fired the gun under the grape trellis yesterday also said it.
“But no one knows what we have done, so there is no need to worry about being retaliated by [Mercury Blood] or cultists who believe in the evil **** [Lord of Blood Feast], let the church’s ring warlocks worry about this kind of thing Come on, the rest of the matter has nothing to do with us. The ritual of calling the evil **** requires meeting many complicated conditions, such as 'Gluttony Man', 'Night Banquet', etc. There won't be any more in a short time. This is great."
The old priest nodded, but his face was still worried:
"It's just that more than one person saw you kick that last night. The church actually thinks you are a twelve- or even thirteen-level warlock. This is really a headache. In the next few months , I'm afraid you should be careful not to be linked by others. This kind of thing cannot be explained clearly.
But you did a good job. You had a mask on your face and the clothes on your body were not yours. You even remembered to use illusions to pull Silver Moon behind you to cover your body. The church now calls you 'Under the Silver Moon' Masked Man' and push the headless Ring Warlock corpse in the garden maze onto you. The church believes that you are a ring warlock who is proficient in the miraculous elements of [Silver Moon]... Detective, have you wanted to do this for a long time? That’s why you’re so well prepared, even bringing the [Twenty-sided Dice of Destiny] with you so that the church can’t divine your identity. ”
When he asked the last sentence, the old priest's tone became more relaxed.
"No, it's just a coincidence."
Shad shook his head and said that the cause of everything last night was just the good luck caused by the dice. Unless the attack of fate is rebounded again, this will never happen again.
He stopped stroking little Mia and looked at his hand in the orange cat’s dissatisfied eyes:
"The power last night...can no longer be used, and I don't think I will miss that power..."
The old priest showed a true expression.
Xia De actually felt guilty for deceiving his friends, but the road to divine sublimation must not be known to others. Becoming a **** is a temptation for everyone, and if he is the only one who can take this path, Shade will not let anyone know this secret.
"It's good that you understand the price of power, but having power is definitely not a fault. Your kick last night was quite good. I think after this incident, your understanding of your core spiritual runes may have to be better. If you’re profound, you might even have the chance to create your own thaumaturgy.”
Priest August's tone was a little more brisk. He walked to the clothes rack in the room to get Shade's coat (note):
"So the ending last night was actually very good. We worked together to stop the evil god, and our identity was not revealed. You killed Mrs. Lasoya and experienced power, and the price was just a day's sleep. I really I have to pray to my Lord [Mr. Liming], this is really extremely lucky.”
Of course, there are also flaws. Dr. Schneider failed to get the [Forged Philosopher's Stone], and he definitely couldn't get the high bounty on "Mrs. Lasoya" killed by Shade or even the relic ring.
But nothing is perfect. Everyone is safe now, which is pretty good.
Besides, he now has a more important goal than the gold pound and the ring, a more important goal than becoming very rich in this steam age:
"Divinity...twelve sublimations...becoming a god..."
The priest didn’t know what Shade was thinking and was still talking to himself:
"Speaking of which, it was a coincidence that all five of us showed up there last night without any prior discussion."
"Yes, what a coincidence."
This should not be caused by his "luck", after all, it would be better if the other people didn't show up.
"But it turns out that Bill has the worst luck."
The priest shook his head and sighed.
"Priest, what does this mean?"
Xia De asked curiously.
"Same as before, if everyone goes together and one person is injured, there is a high probability that it is Bill. If many people are injured, then there is a high probability that Bill is the most seriously injured. He can meet you and get you smoothly Joining our group is probably the luckiest thing that has happened to him this year, oh, may God bless him."
