The Whispering Verses Chapter 1960: Tree canopy melee (lead update)
Chapter 1960: Canopy Melee (Additional update from the leader)
The girls in the hotel, who were also shaken by the earthquake, saw this scene from the window. They were all worried about Sha De's current situation.
Luvia's purple eyes clearly saw the entire process of the growth of the giant tree on the hills in the distance. Beside her, Lesia and Dorothy, who had never experienced such a catastrophic scene, were holding Agelina's hand, unable to imagine what Shade was doing.
The cat squatted on Agelina's head and yawned. It already missed Shade.
Flying streams of light surround the giant tree, and the roots rising from the ground infuse the blood that will surely surround the diviner to fulfill his long-cherished wish into the towering tree that symbolizes unity.
Soon, when the giant blood-colored tree finally grew to a height of several hundred meters, its growth rate began to slow down. The monsters that were prostrate and worshiping faced the outside humans again with an even more violent attitude.
At one-third of the height of the giant tree's crown that continues to grow slowly, dense blood-red branches steadily hold up the remains of the floor. The ends of the branches drilled into the edge of the wreckage like drills, and the dense branches wrapped the edge of the stone, making the wreckage almost completely integrated with the giant tree.
On the completely level gray ground, the long banquet table and the people at the table finally faced the rain and saw the first ray of moonlight tonight at a height of 100 meters on the "Green Island".
The light of March shines on the giant tree through the gaps in the dispersing dark clouds. The moonlight also shone on the faces of Laplace Howard, Iluna and Shade, giving the three faces an indescribable luster.
The night wind blows at an altitude of hundreds of meters, and the "Green Island" below even looks so small. The growth of the giant tree is still going on, but when the branches sway in the night wind and reach higher, the banquet venue in the canopy remains stable as if it has never been separated from the earth.
The fortune teller stood up and raised his glass of wine to greet Shade and Iluna:
"Thank you for everything you have done for me tonight. Although this is a bit risky for me, during the ceremony, it was temporarily decided that you would help me complete the last node and let your blood drip on this land. This It will make this ritual more successful. You are also my helpers in fulfilling my wish. Even if you also seize the power of the ritual from this process, it is still worth it, O chosen ones of balance, please ask me. Are you satisfied with the venue I chose for the final stage?"
"I'm only asking you once."
Xia De ignored his topic:
"I don't care how complicated your ceremony is, what impact the participation of me and the girl next to you has on you, and how you weigh the risks of our participation. Now listen Now - give up Edwardsden’s magic, give up being the chosen one in space, do you agree?”
The fortune teller also answered Shade’s question seriously:
"We are on different paths. Although you and I have the same goal, we are not the same people after all. I have a lot to say to you, and I have a lot of things I want to discuss with you. But I'm really sorry, Godcaller, this world needs my attempt. Just like I once said to you - even if I fail, it will prove that I am on a wrong path. The moment Edwards Den's magic finally activates, if you think you are right, come and stop me!"
Twenty blood-red branches protruded from higher up in the tree crown like long snakes, reaching across the table to the twenty people belonging to the Edwards family.
But before Shade could swing the sword in his hand, Megan, who pretended to be unconscious, forcibly tore off the cat-shaped mask on her face. She, together with the cultist Nadia Foran and the old ghoul Mr. Green, who stood up suddenly, cut off the branches that tried to penetrate their heads with a wave of their hands.
Megan grabbed the unconscious Green siblings and threw them towards Shad. The old ghoul quickly tore off the masks of the Edwards brothers, and the latter two tried to wake up the Fulan brothers beside them.
Nadia Fallon (5th generation) even opened her mouth and sprayed a fan-shaped crimson dragon fire at her ancestor. Unfortunately, she was blocked by the black flames sprayed from the mouth of Gratoni Edwards (3rd generation). Stopped.
The tentacle man Sloth Edwards (2nd generation) launched an attack on Megan (5th generation). The two floated together in the air, and the thaumaturgy and tentacle groups clashed. It was hard to tell who had the upper hand for a while; Edwards Brothers Zi (6th generation) and Fulan brothers (6th generation) were stopped by the three ghoul brothers (4th generation). The three lich ghoul brothers are still powerful; the devil Pride Edwards (3rd generation) pounced on them The youngest daughter's son, Mr. Green (5th generation). Unfortunately, the devil's wisdom is almost zero. He only has instincts and cannot suppress the intelligent ghoul who is also a ring warlock; the cultist Jarvis Edwards (5th generation) ), then reached out to grab the spirits Rusty Edwards (2nd generation) and Maria Edwards (4th generation) who had just woken up. The girl faced them with a low expression, but still looked around, as if looking for who.
In the blink of an eye, 17 of the 21 members of the Edwards family were fighting in a ball on top of the wreckage of the banquet hall in the sky. Shade, who caught the Green siblings, placed them on the ground and tore them off. The mask also swung its sword and rushed towards the fortune teller together with Iluna.
At some point, a blood-colored translucent mask had risen from the edge of the floor of the irregular-shaped wreckage of the banquet hall, and closed above their heads, isolating the space inside and outside the wreckage located a hundred meters above the ground. , but no one cares about that at the moment.
"Thunder Gun!"
"Sunshine Gun!"
The silvery-white and golden thunderbolts thrown at the same time were swallowed up by the space cracks cut by the fortune teller behind the long table. He jumped upward slightly and floated in the air above the table.
Raising his right hand, he used his palm to catch the [Night Watchman] in Sha De's hand that fell from the sky. The palm turned into gold and stone faced the angel-level relic's sharp blade, but only cracks appeared; he punched his left fist forward, and fought with Iluna, who used Thaumaturgy - Sun Fist, hit his right fists together. The sun's rays, which were enough to incinerate his organs, only made his skin turn a strange red color, as if it was steamed.
"Black Moon Talisman!"
Shad in the air held the sword in his right hand as a fulcrum, and pressed his left hand against the fortune teller's head.
"Pyroblast-Sunshine!"
Even though her strength was weaker than the opponent in front of her, Iluna still let her right fist continue to move forward, and the solar energy blasted out detonated in the opponent's right arm.
The fortune teller raised his foot and kicked Eluna in the abdomen, and the third hand stretched out from behind met Shade's fist.
Iluna was kicked out of the air, but she still stood firm when she landed. Shade's Black Moon Talisman only destroyed the fortune teller's third hand, and then he was punched open by the opponent because he couldn't use it in the air.
The Night Watchman was thrown to Iluna by Shade. The life ring appeared behind Iluna who caught the sword and quickly turned into the dark golden scale. Iluna raised the long sword upwards, the sword crossed the scales, and the strength of both sides resonated. The power of balancing the chosen ones turned into visible ripples and spread towards the confined space in the sky. In addition to the fortune teller himself, the power of the enemy Edwards also began to decline.
Laplace Howard, who was floating in the air and wearing a golden robe, seemed to be affected for just a moment. Two hands stretched out from behind his back again, and the palms of the four hands were all aimed at Shade and Iluna. Gray light **** representing the power of destroying space flew towards the two of them, and some even flew towards them. others in the battle.
"Laws·Copy!"
The seventeen-year-old girl pursed her lips and swung her sword forward, using the witch's secret technique she learned from the red-haired duchess. The same gray sword marks collided with those gray **** of light one after another.
"Chains of great sin!"
The two chains that broke through the air were thrown towards the man in the air, but the gray spherical barrier just flashed around his body, and the two chains hit each other and sparked, and then returned without success.
Shad reached out and hugged Iluna, who was wielding the sword, and their bodies disappeared together under the effect of "Raglai's Jump". The fortune teller also disappeared above the table, and then the three of them appeared at the right edge of the field at the same time.
The sword in Iluna's hand was held by the fortune teller's hands. The sun's rays that appeared on the sword were already the prototype of the sun sword. The silver moonlight sword held by Shade's hands was blocked by the silver shield floating next to the fortune teller, but the next moment the sword disappeared in his hand, and the blood seeping from the fingertips that he pinched turned into a **** whip. Towards the front:
"Soul whipping!"
The soul of the mouse appeared out of thin air and took the blow that ignored physical obstacles on behalf of the fortune teller.
Then the fortune teller's **** and index finger came together and pointed directly at the sword in Iluna's hand. Iluna instinctively felt the danger and wanted to dodge, but her dodge process seemed like she took the initiative to meet the other person's finger——
Buzz~
The long sword was hit by a finger, and the high-speed vibration of the long sword made Iluna's palm numb. In order to prevent the weapon from being taken away by the opponent, she had to retreat again, but the dark golden scale above her head had confirmed that it had the effect of attenuating the power of the fortune teller.
Shad beside her, after his "Soul Whiplash" was blocked by the rat, faced the fist bombarded by the fortune teller. It looked like an ordinary fist, but Shade felt the power of bombarding the space.
The feeling of being unable to dodge emerged again. He held a breath in his heart and used his feet to mobilize the feeling that seemed to be able to draw power from the earth under his feet. At the same time, he summoned the power he received from Fiona:
"The power of the red dragon!"
The loud sound after the sonic boom attracted the attention of everyone in the wreckage in the sky above the tree crown. Shade almost flew out upside down and stopped after hitting the **** light shield on the edge of the wreckage. The fortune teller took two steps back amid the roar, raised his arm and looked at his **** fist. For the first time since the battle began, he showed a surprised expression:
"You are actually able to compete with my current body in strength simply by relying on your own body. I am very sure that you have not undergone human body refining experiments. Godcaller, is your race really still human? ”
