The Whispering Verses Chapter 1813: Circus and Tiger
Chapter 1813 Circus and Tiger
Ordinary people in the circus could not see this strange soul, and Rusty Edwards, as a spirit body, was not afraid of the sun at all, so Shade took her away from the tent. With Megan's ancestor guiding him, Shade no longer had to wander around the camp this time, and he easily found out that the tiger was in the largest tent in the center.
The people who looked at the tent originally did not want Shade to go in, but Shade said that he paid to visit and paid a 10-pence entrance fee, so he was allowed to enter.
The size of this circus is considered medium-level, so although there are no groups of animals in the troupe, there are also horses and tigers that are used for both performances and pulling carts, many cats and dogs that are used for pet performances, magician's rabbits and parrots wait.
Among them, the tiger is of course the most important animal in the entire circus. When animal performances are performed in public, the tiger is the best gimmick to attract guests.
On this Thursday morning, the tiger was locked in a cage, lying there lazily as if sleeping. Because Shade paid money to come in, the young animal trainer apprentice who was playing cards with the clown did not stop him from approaching, but only warned Shade:
"Please don't feed food randomly, and don't reach into the cage casually - the two things can actually be the same thing."
"Great sense of humor."
Xia De approached the cage, but did not notice anything unusual about the tiger. Looking at Rusty Edwards aside, the girl shook her head quickly:
"This is not a tiger."
"Isn't it?"
Xia De was a little hesitant and glanced back. When he saw the two players playing cards concentrating on their hands, he quickly reached into the cage and touched a tiger. The tiger who was touched opened his eyes and looked at the person outside the cage suspiciously, not sure what he was doing.
[There is an elemental reaction, suspected of deformation. 】
Xia De understood somewhat and asked the little girl beside him:
"He's not a tiger, so what is he?"
Rust Edwards said without thinking:
"Of course it's a trainer, but now he thinks he's a tiger, which is really funny."
Shad nodded, turned around and walked to the two people playing cards, and asked the young apprentice of the animal trainer:
"Where is your teacher? I am very interested in communicating with him about his experience in raising tigers. I also raised a similar thing."
Little Mia, who was basking in the sun and watching pigeons on the windowsill at home, lazily rubbed her face with her paws.
"How do I know."
The apprentice said without looking back, but then, the coin dropped from Shade's hand to the table. The clown quickly grabbed the two coins in front of him and answered first:
"Dear guest, Mr. Tiger said he wanted to take a look around. It's too stuffy in the tent. You leave the camp and go east. There is a river over there. He should be there."
"Oh, this is mine!"
The animal trainer apprentice reached out to grab the coin, so the two started playing around. From beginning to end, they never raised their heads to see who Shade was.
So Shade left the tent and walked east through the farmland with Rust. After a few minutes, they saw the river that the clown talked about. This is a tributary of the Duin River that runs through the cities on the north and south sides of Green Lake, and will eventually merge into Green Lake. As expected, the animal trainer with the head of a tiger and the body of a human was here. When Shade saw it, it had its back to the direction of the camp and was lying on the belly of a dead cattle, eating the body.
Hearing the footsteps, the "Animal Tamer" immediately turned around, allowing Shade to see the furry face and the blood stains near the mouth.
No need to say any nonsense, the tiger-headed trainer pounced on Shade, and at that moment the shadow of the real tiger flashed behind it. Shade frowned slightly and took a step back. The next second, he appeared behind the animal trainer. The animal trainer who threw himself on the ground forced a large hole half a meter deep into the ground.
Crazy laughter came from its mouth, and as its mouth opened wide, dozens of translucent monsters with human heads and tiger bodies emerged from its body. Approximately a spiritual body, but possessing the properties of a physical entity. After the "Beast Tamer" suddenly waved the whip wrapped around his waist, the monsters pounced on Shade.
"It turns out it's really the beast tamer - the Seal of Heaton!"
The long sword in his hand pointed forward, and the exploding golden shield knocked all the monsters that jumped forward at once and flew back.
With a bang, the whip in the trainer's hand exploded, and the dim-colored monsters got up and walked slowly towards Shade again. At the same time, the animal trainer's long whip was swung at Shade's head, but in the air, it was stopped by the chain flying out of Shade's sleeve.
The whip and the chain were entangled, and Shade and the trainer pulled hard in their direction at the same time. And those monsters with human heads and tiger bodies also took this opportunity to pounce on him again.
"Ha!"
Rust Edwards suddenly appeared from behind the "tamer", holding his right wrist with his left hand, and while slashing his right hand from the top of his head to the lower right, he was separated from her by the "tamer" who was three meters away. The body of "Beast Master" also had cracks with the same trajectory.
The whip dissipated, and the human-headed tiger monsters exploded into clouds of smoke. After a scream, the animal trainer's body split into two halves and fell to the left and right. He shivered a few times on the river beach and then became motionless. The black blood dyed the river bank red, the whispering elements gradually dissipated from the tiger, and the battle was over.
"Very beautiful Dimensional Slash, well coordinated, Mr. Durut Gilles will be proud of you."
Xia De smiled and praised, and the girl raised her chest slightly to make a proud expression, and then said rude words that she didn't know where she learned, while spitting around the tiger's body.
As a soul, she naturally has no saliva.
Xia De came to the tiger's body and put his hand on it. As it dies, the tiger's head remains unchanged, while the human body is covered with tiger hair and is changing back to its original appearance. But this corpse must not be left alone here. Any corpse contaminated by the whispering element must be dealt with strictly, otherwise it will definitely cause other troubles.
"So, the cognitive-altering relics that appear here in the circus are to replace the things in the circus with the humans in the circus?"
"Yes, the sage-level relic [Dark Moon Circus]. Fortunately, this relic is still in the advent stage and has not been completely assimilated to the circus. Otherwise, even if the lady comes in person, it will be difficult for this matter to be Completely solved."
A clear female voice came from behind, but Shade did not look back. They did not hide themselves. Shade had just noticed the arrival of the maids:
"Darkmoon Circus? That's a nice name. Is it really a sage-level relic?"
He clapped his hands and stood up from the corpse, then asked Tifa behind him, who nodded slightly to Shade with a smile on his face. Two other maid ladies from Central came with them. Although the three of them were not wearing the iconic black and white maid skirts, but were each wearing casual clothes, their walking and standing postures all showed the elegance of maids. temperament.
Rust Edwards did not hide from the stranger's arrival. She floated above the tiger's carcass. He looked at Tifa, then down at himself, and then showed an interesting shocked expression.
"The lady specially sent us to deal with this matter. This matter is very important."
Tifa gave Shade a hug.
The companions behind her covered their mouths and laughed and whispered, probably making jokes about maids, knights, and duchess. Rust covered his face with his open-fingered hands, and He looked embarrassed to see it.
Tifa also noticed this soul that she had seen at Tobesk's banquet, but she and the other two girls came in disguise, so they were not afraid of revealing their identities:
"Sage-level relic [Darkmoon Circus], event type. Usually, it will infect and assimilate medium-sized or larger circuses in stages, or other groups with animal performances. When all of [Darkmoon Circus] After all the members have completed their descent and assimilation, the complete sage-level relics will massacre the entire area. Their combined power cannot be resisted by any single Thirteenth Ring.
The arrival of the circus is divided into three stages, and each stage will have a strong core presence. The current status should only be the first stage. ”
"Core? Is this it?"
Shad glanced at the tiger's body, Tifa shook her head slightly:
"According to the information provided by the lady, this is just an animal trainer in the circus, and there are at least three animal trainers in the Dark Moon Circus. The core of the circus refers to: The Fool - the clown, the wise man - the fortune teller, and the leader -Darkmoon Rabbit."
"Well, what's the last one?"
Xia De raised his eyebrows in surprise, and the black-haired girl smiled and explained:
"No kidding, that is a black-haired rabbit with at least thirteen rings of strength. The circus is named after it. The shape of that rabbit is similar to that of Little Mia, but it is far more powerful than Little Mia. . But fortunately, the leader only comes in the final third stage. It is not sure which one will appear in the first two stages, but as long as the core is removed, the Dark Moon Circus can be expelled."
"It shouldn't be a clown. I just asked in the camp. There are only two clowns in the circus. One is performing ball tossing for the children, and the other is playing cards with people in the tent. They are both normal people."
As Shade said, he looked at Rust’s soul, and the little girl nodded:
"Yes, yes, clowns are normal."
"Then things will be much simpler. When the lady sent us out, we were originally worried that the second stage had already appeared. Detective, you helped us solve many problems."
Tifa winked at Shade with a playful look that would never appear when she was around Miss Carina.
