The Whispering Verses Chapter 431: Wings

After the soul dissipates, the corpses below the ground will no longer riot. The priest who had his hands free looked at Shade in surprise:

"I just wanted to ask, what kind of thaumaturgy is this? Although power does not distinguish between good and evil, this..."

"Priest, try to channel the soul again."

Xia De waved his hand and didn’t want to say more, pointing to the body on the ground:

"The body can be restored after destruction, and maybe the soul can too. If successful, we will try to communicate again; if the soul is really completely destroyed by me, then the body can be safely delivered to the church."

"No problem."

So the corpse was slapped by the priest again, and the soul that appeared later was in a normal state, and it obviously remembered what happened just now.

As soon as it appeared, I wanted to move quickly into the distance. But Shade, who was already prepared, manipulated the chains to tightly bind the soul.

The tip of the slender chain, a rune chain symbolizing [Gluttony], points to the soul's head. The soul was a little crazy at this time. I don't know whether it was the experience of soul distortion and collapse that made him crazy, or whether the influence of the [Sin Chain] was not eliminated by the rebirth of the soul.

"If you want to experience again the feeling of being on the verge of losing control, I can help you,"

Xia De said that this threat is enough to deter him.

"No, no, I won't run away."

The soul shook its head hurriedly, with a confused expression on its transparent head, but its eyes were aimed at the black metal dagger on the ground.

Priest Augustus asked:

"What on earth are you doing? What is the purpose of this resurrection ritual? In other words, why is there no whisper element on the dagger, but it is on your body?"

The soul did not want to answer this question, but Shade tightened the chain, and he was forced to say:

"Actually, it's nothing. I'm using the resurrection ritual to seize the power of the relic in the nine resurrections...that is, to integrate myself with the relic. This is a poet-level relic [Death Curse Dagger] 】, can enhance the abilities of the undead and control the undead through the dagger."

"Integrate with the relics?"

Hearing "her" laughter, Shade frowned, and the priest turned red with anger:

"How come there are always lunatics like you? Even churches and colleges only dare to contain and use relics to a limited extent. How dare you... What kind of organization are you, a ring warlock?"

"Let me go, otherwise the organization will definitely retaliate against you... Oh."

The tip of the chain tapped his face several times.

"I said, remove this **** chain quickly. The Truth Society! I am a member of the Truth Society!"

He was probably really afraid of what was in front of him.

"Truth Society?"

Shad heard the name [Truth Society] once, when Iluna mentioned it. Like the silver-eyed ones, the girl with long brown hair also had an inextricable grudge against the [Truth Society].

"The Society of Truth is an illegal ring sorcerer organization rooted in the primeval forests of the southern part of the Old World. It has its own secret castle deep in the forest. The Society of Truth is said to have originated from the chaotic era of the Fourth Age. This group of people claims to be an academic organization. , come together to pursue the truth, but their crazy actions will cause big trouble every time."

The priest asked Shade about this. He knew that Shade definitely didn’t know this:

"Detective, kill him. Everyone in the Truth Society will die. There is no need to keep him."

Shad nodded and raised the sword in his hand.

The soul immediately shouted:

"I have almost succeeded. Don't you want to take a look at my research information? In extreme cases, it is possible for people and relics to fuse into one! This is especially possible for those weird and powerful relics. Sex! ”

He looked at Shade and the priest in turn:

"You can do it too! You are all very potential ring magicians. You can definitely perform the ritual I am performing now! You can merge with the relics!"

"Detective, don't listen to his nonsense. Kill him and I will report the matter to the church. All the research materials he left behind should be recycled and destroyed."

The sword in Shade's hand fell, and his soul screamed frantically. He seems to want to use the word of sublimation to fight with the two, but the [Chain of Sin] has the effect of blocking the power of the ring warlock:

"Until my death, I have never seen a real person who is integrated with the relics!"

The soul was split into pieces by Shade for the second time, and then dissipated into the air.

But this time, Priest Augustus suddenly stretched out his hand and grabbed it in the air, and Shade once again saw the illusory sight of white feathers falling behind him. The priest's hand caught some black traces. The old hand struck in the air like playing a piano string. A series of white runes appeared in the air and then disappeared.

Following the traces captured by the priests, the two dug out a purple-gold locket in the dirt in front of the coffin. The resurrection ritual requires real death, and in order to prevent the soul from actually leaving and causing the ritual to fail, the ring wizard who uses the ritual must prepare a container to hold the soul.

This information was all told to Shade by Priest August, who knew a lot about such rituals.

Sealing the locket and the dagger that could not sense the whisper element for the time being, the two of them took the coffin out of the tomb to prevent anything else nearby.

There is indeed something under the coffin, but it is the body of an ordinary person. Come to think of it, this is the real remains of the peasant woman’s husband.

Confirming that there was nothing wrong with the second body, Shad and Priest August reburied him. Shade even picked a bunch of wild flowers by the fence where little Mia was standing just now and placed them in front of the tombstone as an apology for digging the grave tonight.

During this period, the lights in the tombkeeper’s cabin were never turned on. Shade didn't know whether the other person was really asleep, or whether he was awake but didn't dare to make a sound.

"Priest, what should I do with the body, soul and dagger of this ring warlock? Do you need me to call a carriage?"

Xia De asked after confirming that all traces had been dealt with.

"You go back first, Detective. You worked hard tonight. I will give you the weak angel potion next week."

The priest rolled down his sleeves that he had rolled up while digging and waved to Shade:

"I have done similar things many times. Next, I will find a way to notify the church and ask the church to take the body back."

"Okay then, I'll take Mia and leave first. I feel like I won't gain anything from tonight's actions."

Shad yawned and said, while Priest August looked very happy:

“We successfully stopped a guy who was going to cause trouble in Tobesk Parish, and returned an unfortunately implicated corpse to its coffin. Isn’t this a gain?”

"It was indeed successful. Well, priest, I'll go back first. Oh, it's almost two o'clock, and there is a doctor's study meeting this afternoon."

Shad nodded, and after saying goodbye to the priest, he walked briskly towards the exit of the cemetery with the cat.

Priest Augustus kept smiling, standing next to the body and in front of the tomb, watching Shade's figure disappear on the path in front of the cemetery.

The smile on the old man's face disappeared. He returned the lantern to the tombkeeper's hut, then bent down to pick up two shovels and clamped them on the left side of his body, and put the box containing the dagger and soul into his big pocket. Tie it around the waist, and finally take the corpse's hand with your right hand.

Looking around vigilantly to make sure there was no one there, he turned around to face the moon, closed his eyes and frowned. After a long time, with the sound of birds waving their wings, a pair of broken white feathered wings with their skeleton and flesh exposed appeared behind the priest.

The moonlight shines on the priest, and the light shines through the gaps in the blackened feathers, causing strange shadows to appear on the ground. The shimmering feathers fall to the ground, but disappear before touching the ground. The wings are translucent.

The wings flapped twice behind his back, and the priest slowly rose into the air. Then, under the moonlight, under the moonlight night, he dragged the body with a shovel and flew towards the city.

"This scene is the weirdest thing tonight."

Silver mist suddenly appeared behind the tombkeeper's hut. Shade walked out of the silver mist carrying the cat, and looked up with Mia at Priest Augustus, who was only a small black dot in the moonlight.

He didn't mean to peek into other people's secrets, but he was curious about how the priest would get back if there was no carriage nearby.

"Vice President Professor Sanchez said that thirty years ago, in the third year after Latte August joined the Church of Dawn, he, as an ordinary person, was involved in an incident in which the containment of a Level 0 relic went out of control. And August Priest Gus was one of the few survivors..."

Xia De narrowed his eyes and looked at the priest who had disappeared into the deep night sky:

"What creature does that pair of weird wings belong to? Perfect, broken, holy, bloody...interesting, everyone has their own secret."

Thinking back to Professor Sanchez’s evaluation of the five people in the group, maybe the professor’s conclusion that Shad was the only normal person among them was really the correct conclusion.
