The Whispering Verses Chapter 334: Distribution of coins


Half an hour later, Luvia, who had returned to the second floor, finally learned from Shade about the statue of the ancient **** and all his experiences in Coldwater Port City. Of course, in order to protect Dorothy's privacy, Shade only said that the young girl who took the adventure with him was a friend he met when he went to Coldwater Port last time.

"Although there may have been other accidents in line with the predictions of "The Whispering Canto" in the past six months, you appeared there inexplicably, and I knew something was wrong no matter how you thought about it. Shade, even without divination, I am almost certain that you will find something from the New World The new "Mumbling Poems" fragment refers to the accident you encountered."

Luvia looked a little anxious:

"But how could it be? How could it happen to you by chance?"

"It's useless to think about it now. The key is to confirm the identity of the other party."

Xia De picked up the small bag containing coins and shook it:

"Actually, I have other things that I want you to help me divine, but judging from the current situation, the matter of the second chosen one is equally urgent. Luvia, I want you to help me divine a summoning god. Can you estimate how many coins the ceremony will cost?"

"It's hard to say that divination pointing to gods will definitely not be simple. Moreover, the efficiency of different coins is also different."

"Okay then."

Xia De thought for a while and made up his mind, handing her the [Universal Currency]:

"First of all, help me divine. I entrusted Professor Manning to help find the doomsday academic organization. When can I find it? Can it help me find the [Hermitage of Light Guide]? Does the latter have what I need? Message."

Luvia didn’t know Professor Manning, nor did she know about the [Light-Guiding Hermitage], but she vaguely guessed that it was related to Shade’s time travel:

"If you spend one coin, you will lose one. Are you sure you don't use all the coins to help you get the answer directly?"

She was very worried:

"You found these [relics], and you are free to choose what to do with them."

"There's more than one way to get the answer, ask for divination."

Xia De said.

Strictly speaking, there was no need to worry about the third time in 3002. Shade could even spend his whole life searching for the answer. That's why he took the risk and first wasted a coin to divine Professor Manning's harvest, and then determined how the remaining 10 coins should be distributed.

"Okay, then I'll start."

The purple-eyed fortune teller closed his eyes and took a deep breath, then flicked the coin in his hand away. As the coin flew to the top, it quickly rusted and decayed until it scattered into a pile of fly ash in the air. Before all the fly ash fell, it had already melted into the air.

This time, Shade did not see the more mature but physically mutilated figure behind Luvia during her divination.

"How was it?"

Luvia opened her eyes, and her purple eyes seemed to flash for a moment:

"It went very well. Although this [Universal Currency] has a low rating, its usage efficiency is higher than blood money. Your professor friend has a wide range of friends and will find you what you are looking for within this week. people and bring you the answers you want to know, although there may be some minor troubles, but overall, you will get everything you want to know."

This answer made Shade very relieved. Although Professor Manning's hobbies were a bit unique, this senior archeology professor was still very reliable. Shade was right to ask him for help.

"In this case, let's first take a look at what the remaining ten coins are."

He pointed to the small bag on the table:

"Wear gloves and try not to touch them. Once you find a problem, immediately put it into the [God's Gift Box] for containment."

"No problem, I'll check. Shade, there's no need to refuse. I am the third ring and you are the second ring. There is no reason for you to come. And even if I am cursed, as long as I consume it, the curse will naturally disappear. Dismissed."

Shad controlled his cat, and Luvia, who put on gloves, carefully untied the straw rope on the bag. The bag is just an ordinary item. It is actually just a piece of rag. After opening it, ten coins are revealed. There are three types in total.

The two of them are most familiar with [Pirate's Blood Money], there are three of them, and it is these three coins that made Shade sense before the pirate ship appeared.

I don’t know the other two Shades, but Luvia does. In order to raise coins for divination, she consulted a lot of information:

"Don't worry, the other two coins are not cursed."

Despite saying this, Luvia did not take off her gloves.

First, twist the smallest black coin. The radius of this coin is only about two-thirds of the size of a small copper coin of one penny. But the temperature of the coin itself was very low. Even if Shade didn't touch it directly, he felt the coolness that seemed to freeze his bones when he passed it through the bag.

"This is a poet-level relic [Death's Atonement Coin]. Don't be frightened by the name. Its effect is very small. For people who are about to die naturally, holding coins in hand, each one can make you live one week longer. And During this week, the coins cannot leave the skin, and each person can use up to 5 coins."

"What? Isn't this very useful?"

Xia De asked doubtfully:

"How do you become a poet?"

"Useful?"

Luvia shook her head, her short brown hair swaying with the movement:

"Xia De, how many people in our era do you think can live to die naturally? The definition of natural death is the natural end of body functions, not death due to illness. Think about it carefully, Sha De, do you think How many people can die naturally?"

Xia De was stunned for a moment, then slowly leaned back and let himself lean on the sofa. Even in my hometown, it is very difficult to die naturally. In this world, the life of the people at the bottom determines that they basically cannot live beyond the age of 50. As for the upper-class nobles and wealthy businessmen, they are also limited by the lack of medical resources in this era, and their health is affected by the environmental problems caused by the development of the steam industry. .

It is even more difficult for a ring warlock to die naturally. This is not a safe profession.

"The negative characteristic of [Death's Atonement Coin] is that long-term contact with living people will accelerate their own aging and make their luck worse, so we will consume this first. There is no benefit in keeping this thing. I have been I think that instead of preparing for death, it is better to think more about the things in front of you."

She handed the coin to Shade for inspection, and Shade found a small inscription on the side of the coin:

[Atone for your sins from the God of Death, and you may be able to gain mercy. 】

There are three pieces of "Pirate's Blood Money" and five pieces of "Death's Atonement Coin". The last two were gold coins, about the same size as a silver shilling. Compared with the first two coins with simple styles, the last two gold coins have extremely complex patterns on both sides.

The front side that Shade thought was a cluster of flowers, and the reverse side that he thought was a portrait of an unknown man with a big nose.

Luvia still picked one up casually, it seems there is no curse on it:

"I also know this, a clerical relic [Colmo Empire Civilization Gold Coin]."

"What is the Kolmo Empire? A kingdom from the Fifth Age? Or from earlier times?"

Xia De has only studied one book of history and is not familiar with pre-era history.

"I can't answer you. When people found these gold coins, there was a document that called them this name. No information from the church or the academy can find the Kolmo Empire. Judging from the analysis of that document, This may be the human kingdom of the Fourth Age, but the traces and information of the entire kingdom have been erased by the mighty force."

Xia De moved on the sofa uneasily and asked again:

"What is the specific function?"

"Unlike the [Death God's Atonement Coin], which exists in an unknown number, there are definitely 285 [Colmo Empire Gold Coins] in total. Each one has the same effect. If you blow the gold coin and put it to your ear, you can hear some wonderful things. If you listen to it at high frequency for a long time, you can get some weird knowledge. The academy has always believed that that kingdom and civilization were minted into 285 gold coins by some kind of existence. ”

This statement made Shade feel even more uncomfortable.

Luvia folded three kinds of 10 coins into three piles and placed them on the table, looking at Shade with her purple eyes:

"So, what divination will you choose?"

"Louvia, can your body bear the use of so many coins for divination?"

Xia De asked this question first, and the purple-eyed fortune teller smiled:

"It's okay, it's not permanent damage, it's just a little draining."

"Well, I have left a blood money here, so you should also have a blood money in your hand so that you can continue searching."

Shad took out one from the table and pushed it to Luvia, leaving only nine.

"There are two things that need divination now. Although Professor Manning can find the person I am looking for, I must be prepared for other situations. Moreover, in our daily life, we may encounter other needs Divination matters."

Shad put a [Colmo Empire Gold Coin] and a [Death's Atonement Coin] into the box. Now there are seven coins left, that is, two blood money, one gold coin and four atonement coins. coin.

"Okay, let's use these for divination. First, determine whether the pirate incident pointed out in the newly discovered tablet is the one I encountered."

Shad said, while Luvia picked up the atonement coin. The coin was thrown away and disappeared into ashes as it fell:

"The divination efficiency of [Atonement Coin] is much worse than blood money. But you have given specific information, so it is easier to divination. Yes, it was the time you met. Shade, you are like this But I met the chosen one twice in a row."

She teased, and Shade shook his head:

"Then determine the gender of the selected person. In the end, there were more than ten people who jumped off the ship and escaped. We will screen the conditions one by one."

"No problem."

She picked up another atonement coin, but nothing happened after tossing it away. It seemed that there was no answer to the specific information about the chosen person.

Two coins still yielded no results, and after spending three coins, the two finally saw the coins turning into fly ash in the air:

"A definite answer, men."

Shad breathed a sigh of relief, now it couldn't be Princess Lesia. But he immediately realized something and pointed to himself with some hesitation:

"Luvia, is it possible?"

"Although you are also a male and are on that ship, there is absolutely no way it is you, Shade, I have said it many times. You can think carefully about what special abilities you have related to 'darkness' Can it match Iluna's special power of 'balance'?"

Her tone was gentle, as if Shade was a child who kept saying stupid things.

Xia De thought for a while:

"Does it count if I can glow in the dark?"

Now, Luvia looked at him as if she were looking at a stupid child.
