The Whispering Verses Chapter 2561: “Succubus”
Chapter 2560 "Succubus"
After the words fell, the gray-black-haired witch wearing glasses was satisfied to see the handsome man who had been a little cold and wary since entering the room, and his eyes suddenly lit up.
Shad is indeed very interested in this card.
"What do you think, would you consider doing this for me?"
She asked with a smile again, clasping her hands on her chest and looking at the man in the sun through the window.
"I need to make sure that the card is not in the hands of your missing uncle. You have to find him to get it, right?"
Xia De asked seriously, and the witch immediately shook her head:
"Of course not, how could I do that kind of thing? That card is in the hands of my apprentice. She is also a Rhodes card lover like you, but that card belongs to me, I just let her keep it temporarily .
I separated from her before entering the Vista Grove some time ago, and asked her to take my followers to Willendale to find another witch to do some things. She'll be here next week, and you'll be able to see the card then. ”
"I don't guarantee that I will find the person you are looking for."
"It doesn't matter, as long as you are willing to help me."
The witch smiled and stretched out her slender white hand to Shade again:
"Knight, happy cooperation."
Xia De held it, and then found that the witch was holding his hand and would not let go:
"What a perfect hand."
Xia De took the initiative to break away from his hand and thought she was rude. The artist lady didn't care at all about Xia De's eyes, but asked happily:
"When this matter is over, let me paint an oil painting for you? I used to always look for girls as models, but now I find that men are also worthy of my painting. You know, others are rushing to give you the painting. I painted, but I refused.
Queen Camilla once wrote a personal letter inviting me to paint her portrait, and that painting still hangs in Cold Spring Palace. ”
Shadow was not interested in oil paintings, and besides, there was already a painting of a snow scene painted for him by Hai? Oxenfurt hanging in his home. But he still nodded:
"It's my pleasure."
So Miss Winslet became more friendly to Shade.
Seeing that her attitude was so good, Shade thought about explaining his relationship with other witches as planned, but unexpectedly Miss Winslet said again:
"But have you discussed it with Carina? What does your existence mean to us?
Fortunately, you only have a clear relationship with Carina and got to know me. If you bewitched many witches at once, I would definitely report it to the Speaker immediately. ”
"Why?"
Xia De was startled, but she smiled and raised her eyebrows:
"Because in this case, aren't you a 'succubus' specifically targeting our witches? This is not acceptable, the devil will be beaten to death.
But if you only have a relationship with Carina, I would turn a blind eye and pretend I didn’t see it. Of course, I'm not saying that other people will be as interested in you as Carina, but you are certainly interesting. ”
She didn't realize the consequences of her words, but walked towards the piano in the room in a good mood. She didn't see the complicated expression that suddenly flashed in Xia De's eyes when he looked at her back.
【Are you going to take her into the basement? 】
"She" seemed to be smiling happily.
"I don't have this kind of hobby."
【Then you won’t tell me the progress of your entire Witch Council plan? 】
"Wait a little longer, I think I should get more familiar with it before telling you the secrets."
Now that she and Shade have revealed their identities to each other, Miss Winslet has also revealed her "curse". Miss Daniste's curse is her own time regressing and "time freezing", while her body is transformed into an "owl form" that enters the past.
"The human form I am showing now is just the effect of transformation. Like Miss Danister, my strength has also declined. In the owl form, it can be regarded as eight levels at most, and in the human form, it can barely be regarded as ten levels, but The consumption is very large, far worse than the normal eleven rings.”
At this time, Shade and Miss Winslet returned to Miss Danister's room, but the witch still maintained her human appearance:
"Even just sitting here talking to you like this, the consumption of my own spirit exceeds the recovery speed of my spirit.
I experimented last night and found that my owl form does not consume spirit; cats, rabbits, sparrows and other small ordinary animal forms consume much less spirit than before I was cursed; bears, elk, etc. The consumption of large animals is slightly less than before being cursed; but the consumption of any transformation state involving extraordinary power has greatly increased. ”
"So you can't maintain a long-term combat status now?"
Xia De confirmed, the witch nodded:
"Yes, although it is better than your teacher, it is not much better. I guess your bottle of umbilical cord should also be able to temporarily return me to normal, but the punishment will probably be that I return to adulthood. It will become more and more difficult."
"So, recently, although Winslet and I can cast spells, we will try to avoid high-intensity combat situations. Shade, you may have to work harder."
Miss Danister ordered, Shade didn’t have any objections to this:
"No problem, and I suggest that you don't show up easily anymore. It's hard to say whether 'cursed people' like you will attract the attention of others, and I'm worried that if there really is a so-called 'time traveler', They might also be able to easily notice you. Were you frequently active in the city before you disappeared?"
The two ladies shook their heads. They both came with their own purposes. The thirteenth-ring sorceress and the eleventh-level witch were very cautious.
"Well, although the three of us are investigating together, I will be responsible for most of the activities in the city, and you are responsible for the areas outside the city. The first is the [Forest Hermit Group], who believe in the old **** 'White Saint' The tree's ring warlock group is active in the Vista Grove. Do you know about this?"
Miss Danister nodded:
"I came here to find the astrologer from a hundred years ago. The initial plan included contact with the [Forest Hermits]. They were here a hundred years ago. No problem, I will be responsible for contacting them. ”
"Also, there are countless ancient ruins scattered in the Vesta Grove. I hope to investigate the ruins related to the ancient **** of time, or to those old gods related to time, such as [ Relics related to "Yaubian Gate""
"No problem, I'll investigate."
The gray-black-haired witch took the initiative:
"My apprentices and followers are rushing over with relevant documents. I can complete this task in the inn. In addition, I will also keep an eye on the inn, especially on the broom room."
Xia De nodded:
"The direction of my investigation is the Bennet family. Since the cabinet can be traced back to the old Bennet house at the earliest, I think we should be able to find some clues."
Of course, although he had determined the direction of the investigation, Shade did not stay for lunch at noon. Instead, he put down the clothes he had prepared for Miss Danister and left, agreeing to come back with him tomorrow morning. Two ladies meet.
He attended the group's study meeting on time in the afternoon. Because the autumn semester has just begun, even the doctor has not urged them to prepare for the "upcoming" winter exams, so this meeting is not important.
During this period, Shade mentioned the topic of time travel to others.
He did not say that someone disappeared and was found by him, but he just mentioned that he found the magical cabinet, and thus talked about the "Tree Cave of Time".
Luvia didn't say anything because she had known about it for a long time, but Dorothy, Priest August and Dr. Schneider had different opinions on it.
The writer cited many examples to prove that such props often appear in fairy tales. Priest August wiped his pipe that he never seemed to light:
"Time Tree Cave, I know, I mean I have heard of this ancient legend.
Those tree holes are not fixed on a certain tree, but appear randomly without any rules. It is a magical gift left by the ancient tree **** in the material world, but if you abuse this gift, it will bring about a punishment more terrible than death. ”
As he spoke, he glanced at Shade. Obviously, this was not "heard" but this part of the information in the angel's knowledge:
"If you don't want to destroy that cabinet, you must not use it yourself. This may cause big trouble."
"I have also heard of this ancient legend."
The blue-eyed psychiatrist also said that he was looking very good now that he had been promoted to the ninth ring, but he was still cautious about time:
“The Time Tree Cave is a power that demons dare not touch easily. Even the ancient evil spirits are afraid of the power of time.
Only those who truly know their mission dare to use the power of the Time Tree Hole. Shade, even you, don't touch that kind of thing easily.
It is rumored that some strange beings continue to guard time after the departure of Tree Father. This may be the 'Guardian of Time' you mentioned. ”
Demons and angels are equally afraid of this kind of thing, and their attitudes towards it are exactly the same:
"Although that cabinet is very precious, you'd better chop it up and use it as firewood."
Xia De has no idea yet, but seeing how cautious the two of them are, he plans to urge Carina to make the imitation cabinet as soon as possible.
After the day's group meeting, Priest August stopped Shade and planned to go with him.
Of course, I was actually talking to Shade about other things:
"Last time you said you were temporarily placing [Angel's Right Arm] with me, didn't I say you were preparing the potion? The potion has been prepared, and you will definitely like it."
The carriage carrying the two people set off from the entrance of the psychological clinic and headed towards the west of the city. The priest took out a glass test tube only the size of his little finger from his robe. The test tube was sealed with beeswax.
The liquid with a pleasant golden color is beating in the test tube, and Shade can feel traces of active elements just by looking at it:
"This is?"
