The Whispering Verses Chapter 2818: The giant wooden chair and the unhappy sorceress
Chapter 2817 The Giant Wooden Chair and the Unhappy Sorceress
The trunk of the giant tree can be regarded as a building as thick as a building. The canopy not only covers the top of the open space, allowing the sparse starlight and moonlight to leave mottled traces on the open space, the canopy even extends into the forest area. .
If it were not possible to see this place from the air, Shade felt that he could easily detect it even from dozens of miles away.
Right in front of the tree trunk, stands an extremely huge wooden chair. The bottom of the seat looks like a tree stump, and the backrest looks like a thin layer of curved bark. Two vertical lines of ancient characters are written on the surface of the back of the chair facing the seat itself.
This was also the first time that Shade saw vertically written text in this world, but when he tried to identify the content above, he felt that the words were blurry and could not be seen at all:
"Strange."
That huge wooden seat is probably most suitable for a fifty-meter-tall giant to sit on. With this huge seat as the center, there are four other wooden seats distributed in a fan shape along the edge of the open space under the tree, located on both sides of the huge central seat.
The style of the four wooden chairs is similar to the largest one, but they are much smaller. But no matter how small it is, it is not a chair for ordinary human beings to sit on. Such a chair is most suitable for people who can grow to ten meters.
"Look here, the runes here are the only ones that can be seen clearly. Can you translate them?"
The doctor asked. At this time, the two of them were facing the largest seat under the giant tree, and he was pointing to the outermost seat on the left. The backrests of all five chairs have ancient runes written vertically, but currently only the writing on the backrest of this chair is clearly visible.
Those words exuded a fiery red shimmer, and Shade could see them clearly even if he stood far away. He translated from top to bottom and from right to left according to his habit:
"Wait a minute, let me see - the light is like fire, and time will never return."
"What does this mean?"
The doctor asked, Shade didn’t know, and nothing happened after he finished reading the revealed sentence:
“I remembered one thing. When I participated in a charity auction some time ago, I met Professor Uke Wood and bought a folklore book "Ximu Town and the World" through his introduction. "Tree", it is believed that the giant trees in the forest are guarded by many symbols of natural forces, such as the earth, water veins, fire and wind."
The doctor nodded:
"You mean, the so-called giant tree in the forest is the one that injured me and exiled you just now? And the so-called four guards are the things sitting on these four chairs. We solved the problem that symbolizes fire. Devil, that's why 'fire' appears?"
Xia De is not entirely sure:
"It's just a possibility."
"So is there a possibility that there are three other demons here corresponding to the earth, water veins and wind?"
The doctor smiled again and Shade shook his head:
"Although we often encounter demons, there should not be four of them at once. Doctor, do you still remember what knocked you away just now?"
"It looks like a dragon-headed beast, but it's different from the ones we saw at the beach in the summer."
"Is it possible that that corresponds to the wind?"
Xia De asked again, and the doctor nodded thoughtfully:
"It is indeed possible. I was so happy just now that I almost forgot about this."
As he spoke, he waved his hand, and a black cube immediately appeared in front of him. The cube then disintegrated into countless small black squares, revealing what they contained. This trick was also learned after swallowing the demon in the labyrinth in Green Lake:
"After I eliminated the demon, there was no demon body left this time. Only the essence I needed was left in its body. But after it disappeared, this was left. This is not the power of the demon."
What the doctor took out was a small branch, with little sparks burning on the branch. Those sparks seem to have become part of the branches and will not go out even if they are frozen, blown by wind, or pressed. This also leads to the fact that shaking the branches will cause the little bits of fire to leave afterimages in the air.
"The sparks above are not demonic flames, they seem to be just ordinary fire."
As he spoke, he handed the branch, which was not very long, to Shade. The branch was bare and leafless, and looked very thin. When Xia De came into contact with the branch, he immediately felt the special nature of its material:
"The branches of the world tree."
He said with certainty that the Key of Yggdrasil, the elven antique arrows, and the Evergreen Leaf were enough for him to distinguish similar materials:
"Is this the power it was given?"
"I don't know about this, it's not within my professional scope."
The doctor shook his head again and said nothing more when he saw Shade's solemn face. If the tree just now was used as an opponent, he knew how much pressure Shade faced.
Looking at this strange place with no cover at all, the doctor knew that there was a powerful existence, and he seemed not to worry about being defeated by anyone at all.
Although this place looks strange, in fact, apart from the glowing red letters, there are no traces of abnormal elements.
The night was already dark, and seeing that there were no other clues here, Shade and the doctor left.
However, the doctor has no plans to return to the city with Shade. Just as the two of them have agreed, he will make some preparations in the forest that will not be discovered by others until he is ready to obtain the third core spirit rune. Contact Shade again.
The two parted in the forest. Shade watched the doctor's limping back disappear before preparing to return. He was actually a little worried about the doctor, not that he would be in danger in the forest, but that he would lose control.
If the doctor's original action of devouring demons was to crack walnuts with a steam bomb, then what he has to do now is to swim in the magma with a steam bomb.
But now that the doctor has made up his mind, Shade can only do his best to help him.
The location where Iluna and the others met was at the entrance to the deserted village of Gregorian Village. When Shade arrived, the originally deserted village looked like it had been burning just a moment ago. The smoldering flames caused smoke to continue to rise from the ruins of the village, and even the temperature at the entrance of the village rose a lot.
Waiting for him, Iluna, Sister Devlin, Flora and several girls from the High Ring were sitting around the bonfire lit by the nun. When they heard the footsteps, they turned around and saw a silver wolf emerging from the woods, and then stood upright under the moon and transformed into Shade.
"Xia De, you are so slow~ If you don't come again, we will go find you."
Iluna waved her hand and said this first. She had great confidence in Shade.
Xia De breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that everyone was safe:
"We encountered some trouble, but it has been resolved. Are you all okay? Where is Miss Elsa Asberg? I haven't thanked her yet."
"She went back first. She still has some things to deal with in the far north. But she must have guessed that you are the Godcaller when she saw the [Night Watch]. I am very curious how Danist will explain to her."
Flora said, stood up and patted her skirt:
"Anyway, the night is finally over. I have already thought about the idea for the fifth oil painting! "Silver Wolf in the Forest", Shade, I feel that your silver wolf form is better than the moonlight dragon form. It’s beautiful.”
Shad smiled and then asked Sister Devlin:
"Has the First Fire taken away by the devil been recovered?"
The nun nodded silently, but in fact, things were not over tonight. Sister Devlin did not follow everyone into the city. She needed to return to the sacrificial site first and wait until the witches arrived at the weekend before coming together. .
Improving her strength in death delayed other things. She, the leader, is not a symbol for the [Spiritual Cult], and she also needs time to stabilize her strength by absorbing the devil's flame and this first fire. .
But before Sister Devlin left, she gave Shade a package:
"These are things left by the demon hunters a hundred years ago, and the demons that dwell here did not destroy them."
When Shade returned to the Accordion Hotel with the girls, it was already three o'clock in the morning on Thursday.
Of course Miss Danister was still waiting for everyone, but when everyone entered the door, everyone saw that the red-haired girl looked obviously very unhappy.
"Dannister, what's wrong with you? Look, we're all back safely."
Flora asked in a good mood, hunting demons made her very excited.
The **** the sofa looked at Shade, then pointed to the box on the coffee table:
"Shad, this is for you."
Shade almost immediately recognized what it was. On the midsummer evening of 1821, this was the box he and the black-haired sorceress saw in the apartment rented by the actress. Unexpectedly, after 33 years, this box is still there.
So Shade roughly guessed what was in the box, and then immediately guessed the reason why the red-haired girl was unhappy:
"Where did you get this?"
He asked carefully, then his rose-red eyes looked at him:
"About forty minutes ago, the principal asked me to go to the college and said that the teacher left something for me, Shard. Did you go to see the teacher again?"
Flora also understood. She took Iluna, the only one who didn't understand, to take a few steps back, and then explained it to Iluna telepathically, so Iluna also understood.
"I did meet Ms. Carter.
Some accident happened just now, and I was thrown out of the current point in time. Our guess about the remains of the World Tree was absolutely correct, but I didn't quite understand why it just drove me away. Ms. Carter helped me come back, and we got along for about a day. ”
The box was manipulated to fly towards Shade and opened automatically. The note and ring were all inside. Shade guessed that little Mia would be happy for several days.
The note is no longer left to Ms. Carter by Mr. Euclid, the astrologer, but from Ms. Carter to Miss Denise. Shade opened the note and understood more clearly why Miss Denister was unhappy.
PS: Fixed a bug in the previous article. In Chapter 1210, Miss Danister mentioned that her teacher’s core spiritual rune was "Silver Moon". I treated it according to the red moon in this volume.
Fortunately, there are not many parts that need to be modified. They only involve the demonstration of the moonlight sword in the "Dance of Three", the thirteen-ring thaumaturgy when sending Shade to treatment on a flying carpet, and the things mentioned in the previous chapter. Ms. Carter's title.
The red moon has been replaced by the silver moon in the first two places, but it should be noted that Ms. Carter is actually good at all the powers of March.
The title of the previous chapter was changed from "Red Moon Spellcaster" to "Moon Spellcaster", which is also consistent with her character design who is also good at the power of March.
