The Whispering Verses Chapter 747: Re-entering the narrow room
Chapter 747 Re-entering the narrow room
Today is Wednesday, and Shade will follow the witches into the narrow room to deal with the seal on the mountainside. Therefore, for safety, he carried the [Night Watch] and [God's Gift Box] with him.
Little Mia is now under the care of Dorothy. Yesterday's lesson taught Shade that it is better not to take the troublesome cat with him when he goes out for adventure.
After meeting the old witch at Cassandra Auction House with Miss Aurora, a group of people including the witch's followers set out for the mountains.
Although the location of the seal hidden by the Witch Emperors on the mountainside is already known, it is not possible for the witches to open the passage to the Dreamland and use it to reach the narrow room through the Dreamland.
The real "open door" location is still far away from the mountainside passage. After entering the narrow room, they still had to walk a long way.
On this trip, except for Shade, all of them were sorceresses above the sixth level. In order to prevent the body from being damaged by the death force in the narrow space, Granny Cassandra bought several complete elven wood branches at a high price. To confirm the correct time, in addition to Shade's [Time Perception], there is also the poet-level (level 5) relic [Indestructible Time Hourglass] in the hands of Miss Aurora's followers.
This relic is quite famous. Together with the [stone that detects gravity] and the [flag of Dylan Kingdom that senses wind direction], it is also called the most useless poet-level relic.
Anyway, after everything was ready, everyone stood together in the clearing of the forest with the autumn leaves. Shade was surrounded in the center, which also meant to protect him.
Miss Aurora held Shade's left hand, and Granny Cassandra held Shade's right hand. As the two great witches chanted incantations softly, the scene of the late autumn forest with fallen leaves around them gradually became blurry.
As if the richly colored oil painting has been splashed with water, after the colors are blurred, everything in the field of vision turns into colorful patches. Those color blocks are not fixed, but are constantly merging, deforming, and changing colors. This makes many incredible hallucinations appear before our eyes. There seems to be something indescribable lurking in the rich colors, but if you look closely, it seems to be just a wonderful combination of changing color blocks.
Time and space are distorted here, and the door to the dreamland is opening. But the purpose of the group was not to dream, so before the space was completely transferred, the thick white mist representing the narrow space poured out from the gaps between those color blocks.
The fog completely obscured his eyes almost instantly, and then as the fog gradually faded, only the black, white and gray narrow space of life and death appeared in front of Sha De's eyes again.
[Stranger, you have left the world of the living. 】
[You feel the miracle, the blasphemy, the enlightenment, the whisper. 】
[Note that Hazama is even more repulsive to living people than before. Even with the protection of the Evergreen Leaf, you should not stay here for more than 900 days. 】
The reminders in his ears kept coming, and the "900 days" deadline also reminded Shade that this place was completely different from the last time he entered. You know, last time "she" said she could stay here for a thousand days. Although the difference is only one-tenth, it is already quite incredible considering the strength of Shade's soul in his divine afterglow state.
When I came to the narrow room from the real world, the surroundings still looked like woods. However, in reality, the scene of golden autumn leaves all over the ground has turned into a terrifying scene of dead trees and mud everywhere.
The surroundings were extremely quiet, with no sound at all. The sky was shrouded in gray fog, and there was only white mist in the distance. This fog is very similar to reality, and the two are really gradually overlapping.
Entering the narrow space, the recovery of a living person's spirit and physical strength will be greatly reduced, and the power of the soul is more prominent than the power of the body.
Therefore, although he felt a little uncomfortable breathing, for Shade, it was as if he had broken free from the shackles at this moment, and his own strength had once again taken a step up.
Contrary to him, except for the two great witches, the other sorceresses all had different abnormal reactions.
However, warlocks above the middle ring adapt to the narrow space very quickly, so after slightly adjusting their status, as a large number of life rings appear in the steam, they can use vigilance, defense, counterattack, reconnaissance, detection, lighting and other thaumaturgy techniques. and the effects of the spell unfolded in an orderly manner around a group of people.
The two great witches used the power of the witches to launch a huge dark golden ritual array. This is the spell [Defense against the Undead], but it can usually only be attached to objects such as doors. It can surround people and follow them. Shade has never heard of the [Defense against the Undead].
"How do you feel?"
Before setting off, Miss Aurora specifically asked about Shade's situation.
"Not bad."
He held the leaf in his mouth and said in a vague voice:
"Better than normal."
Although I had entered the narrow room the day before yesterday, on Monday, there were large red butterflies flying around me at that time. The scene was not scary, but rather dreamy.
At this time, if you really rely on the power of mortals to walk, the Sikal Mountain in the narrow space is more terrifying than the city in the narrow space. The ferocious dead trees in the fog are like the bones of the dead underground, and the souls of different shapes floating in the distance seem to be about to pounce on the living people in the next moment.
Compared to the last time Shade broke into the narrow space alone, this time they encountered more attacks. A steady stream of dead souls were attracted by the life force of living people like a sea wave, and were subsequently eliminated by the counterattack magic of the ring magicians.
Even mid-level warlocks cannot easily destroy these evil spirits now. A team of more than twenty people, plus two great witches, actually spent six hours in the narrow room before reaching the cliff where the entrance was hidden.
During this period, even Shade also joined the battle, replacing those sorceresses who were tired from continuous fighting. Although he only has a low level, the [Night Watch] in his hand does very obvious damage to the evil spirits. Holding an angel-level relic, he does not appear to be a laggard among his companions, but is able to join normal battles on his own.
During these six hours on the mountain road, Shade tried his best to avoid using moonlight thaumaturgy, but only used [Night Watch] to fight. The cold weapon combat skills inherited from this sword were taught to Shade in this way. Even if the sword will leave Shade after the incident at Fort Midhill, he has already benefited a lot from the sword.
"Aren't you tired?"
The cliff was right in front of him, and Shade returned to the crowd from the outside. Miss Aurora looked at her suspiciously. The dark golden light was shining in the witch's hand, which was the key to maintaining the [Resisting the Undead] spell. The two great witches were about to enter the deepest part of the narrow space, so they did not take action during the journey, but chose to save their own consumption.
"Not too tired."
"Are you sure you are okay? When you rushed forward just now, you were more enthusiastic than my followers."
"Of course it's okay. Sister Devlin helped me some time ago and let the flames of the phoenix burn my body, thereby improving my physical fitness."
Xia De replied, making Miss Aurora even more confused:
"Does being burned by the flames of the Phoenix still have this effect?"
"No? That's what the story says."
"The story also says that bathing in dragon blood can make you stronger."
The witch said what Luvia had said before, looked at Shade up and down, and said jokingly:
"But there's no harm in having better physical strength."
