The Whispering Verses Chapter 1106: The last fifth era year 903
The dark lake is so deep, even if you just take a look at it, inexplicable fear will well up in your heart. In the wind, there seemed to be the sound of giant objects lapping the water from the depths of the lake, but if you look closely, you can't see anything.
Xia De fiddled with the bonfire with the long branch in his hand, thought for a while, and took out a ring from his pocket:
"[Epidemic Doctor Ring] can be immune to some special diseases. Wear it, it may be useful later. The way to use it is to rotate the ring counterclockwise. There is no need to refuse, my physical fitness is probably stronger than yours. ”
Eluna naturally did not refuse. After accepting the ring, she asked Shade if she still wore her Holy Emblem of the Sun brooch. After getting a definite answer, we talked to him about the topic of the Evergreen Leaf.
Snowflakes fell from the black sky, swaying in the wind and falling on their shoulders. Muffled sounds were heard from time to time in the swamp, followed by low cries, but no one knew where they came from. The dark lake reflected the light of the fire, swaying and slapping against the shore. The swaying revealed the figures of the girl and the stranger by the bonfire.
Even if she is forced to face a difficult battle next, Iluna still thinks that she will remember this moment and the short rest she and Shade sat by the campfire by the dark lake deep in the swamp. time.
Compared with the four people on the beach of death in the autumn, this time, it was only her and Shade.
Twenty minutes is not long, and Shade kept paying attention to the time. When the time was about to pass through the late night of Wednesday and reach the early morning of Thursday, he stopped discussing with Iluna about the special rules for the chosen ones about "wisdom and knowledge", and took out the weapon that had only been used once from his arms. The time key of opportunity:
"I won't save it for use in battle."
"Okay, I wonder if the witch from the past can help you."
Eluna held her chin with her right hand and looked at Shade's side face illuminated by the firelight, but found that Shade had a very melancholy expression at this time:
"If I could see her reach the top of the mountains, I think she would be able to help me."
He dug out the relics and special items that he could not bring to the past and temporarily placed them on the ground. He then pulled out the door-shaped pendant from his chest. Snowflakes fell on it and melted due to Shade's body temperature. :
"See you in three seconds, Iluna."
Shad temporarily handed over [Night Watch] to Iluna, who took the sword:
"See you in three seconds."
Xia De inserted the wooden key into the keyhole of the door and watched as the "huge" wooden key was "sucked" in by the small keyhole like the eye of a needle:
"May the World Tree protect me in time."
The pocket door was opened, and the white mist inside the door wrapped around Shade. When the white mist dissipated, Iluna could only see the small door falling to the ground.
"One."
She looked at Shade's original position and counted in her mind. The bonfire danced in the wind, and a large shadow covered Shade's position. Suddenly, she heard a strange laughter coming from her ears. The laughter was so tempting that Iluna's heart, which had been gradually calming down, suddenly became restless.
"Two."
She heard the sound of water, and it sounded like human hands stirring up the water. The sound was very close, and the long sword in his hand almost immediately lit up with a silver light that almost illuminated the dark night.
Eluna immediately raised her sword and turned to look at the dark lake not far away. As she stood up, she used the light of the sword in her hand and the reflection of the lake to see a beautiful woman's head exposed on the dark lake. out of the water.
Thump~
She almost heard her heart beating at this moment. Iluna could not describe how beautiful that face was. Even though the light was dim at the moment, the face still seemed to be under the only light on the stage. Just as charming. It's just that something beautiful seems to be abnormal.
"Three.
The rune of [My heart is clear, my sword kills demons] has lit up, and the girl holding the long sword high is walking toward the lake, as if she wants to split the dark lake surface with the silver long sword.
Shad is coming back.
(Little Mia is running...)
[Outlander, you have stepped into the "corridor of time". 】
[Message from the ancient **** "Father of the Infinite Tree":]
[Winter 903 of the Fifth Epoch, Northern Continent, Silver Mountains. 】
[Event: Lost in the Snow Mountain. 】
【Duration is forty minutes (3/3). 】
[You have obtained additional information. 】
[The figure of the father of the infinite tree is watching you. 】
【The test given to you by the ancient **** of time will continue. 】
[Assist the **** ‘Winter Maid’ to **** the lost people to the top of the mountain. 】
[The Father of the Infinite Tree will give you rewards: Thaumaturgy - Light of Confinement, and Curse - Flying Flower Curse. 】
Shade took a step forward in the vast white mist, and then fell directly into the snow.
"That's it again."
The tightly wrapped Shade complained. Although it was still very cold here, it surprisingly didn't feel too cold this time, probably because the lakeside of the Pantanal Lake was not a very warm place to begin with.
Xia De, who was already familiar with this strange snow mountain, took a bite of snow, then climbed out of the snow layer and looked around. Under the colorful black sky, the highest peak of the snow mountain seemed to be right in front of him.
"Oh!"
It can even be said that the current position is just below the last snow **** of the highest peak. While Shade was away, Miss Chloe and her group moved at an alarming speed.
"The scenery on the top of the mountain is probably different from that in the snow-capped mountains."
He whispered in his heart, then shrank his body and looked at the white surroundings, the smoke in his breath dissipated with the strong wind.
He is also familiar with this vast white environment. After all, the Everglades is also like this. It's just that the mental pollution and snowstorms in the Everglades are far less serious than here.
The body was wrapped in heavy clothes, and his eyes scanned the surroundings through the gaps in his hat, cloak and scarf. Under the colorful black sky, the snowflakes shone with silver light. Apart from the sound of the wind, it seemed that there was nothing here.
"Where did they choose the camp this time?"
Looking around on the spot, I decided to go to higher ground first:
"Or maybe it's still the **** who's waiting for me this time?"
We braved the wind and snow to climb up hard. This time we were not walking on the ridge, but actually climbing the mountain. Shade has not forgotten that what he really wants to do is not to climb to the top, but to find the witch and her party. He kept looking left and right, asking "her" if she saw any signs.
Obviously, he only walked for less than ten minutes the first two times before he saw a very conspicuous sign or light, but this time Shade quickened his pace and failed to see Miss Chloe when the tenth minute came. A group of people.
"Forty minutes and half an hour left."
So he quickened his pace and walked down from the high place, and finally almost climbed back to the original height. This time Shade chose to search downwards, and not far below where he appeared, he saw the ruined camp that was almost covered by snow.
Without a campfire, there is even less light and warmth. The expensive tent brought by Shade and sponsored by Miss Carina was almost one-third destroyed by the snowstorm. While Shade pushed aside the snow covering the tent and squeezed in, he saw Miss Chloe, Mrs. Marquez and the unknown man huddled in the dark corner of the tent, the three of them tightly closed. Both eyes and even the eyelashes are covered with frost:
"What happened?"
He held Miss Chloe's hand nervously. The short Miss Witch huddled in the blanket, her hands as cold as ice. After testing her breath with no results, Shade put his hand on her neck.
【Still alive. 】
I breathed a sigh of relief and went to check on the other two people, but their conditions were not much better. Mrs. Marquez's face turned blue, and the man whose name Shade still didn't know was leaning against the tent with his eyes closed, and his life had almost come to an end.
"Miss Chloe~Miss Chloe!"
Holding the short lady in his arms again, Shade tried to shout a few times, but the silver-haired and red-eyed witch didn't respond at all. Her body temperature was extremely low, and when Shade held her in his arms, it felt like he was holding a big ice cube.
There were still traces of the campfire in the center of the tent, so Shade lit the campfire again, using his own spiritual power to make the flames surge. But the fire didn't bring any warmth, let alone return the three people here to normal. They were all still alive, but no one could react to Shade's arrival.
[This area is very special. You cannot use flames to affect the temperature of the area. 】
I tried calling a few more times, but still no response. This symptom is somewhat similar to that of a ring warlock who shrinks his own mental power after suffering a huge mental blow, forcing himself into a semi-coma state. In other words, this is a self-protection mechanism of the body similar to that of a vegetative state to prevent immediate loss of control.
This also means that shortly before Shade appeared, they encountered another enemy that would have a major impact on their emotions and spirit.
"The enemies they encountered were all of this type that affected the mind."
This also further supports Xia De's guess about the current situation.
He didn't have much time to stay here, and he thought he didn't have the ability to carry, drag, and drag three people up to the distant peak. So he carefully walked out of the tent with Miss Chloe in his arms, stood barefoot in the snow and looked into the distance:
"O God! Are you still there! Your believers need help."
The three people in the tent all claim to be followers of the winter **** [Winter Maiden].
In order to prevent another avalanche, Shade did not dare to speak too loudly, but his voice still echoed in the empty sky. However, the gods did not respond to this. Helpless, he could only temporarily return to the tent and search for things that might be used in the tent.
The food he brought last time has been consumed, leaving only the remains of some vegetables that are more durable in cold weather. In terms of personal belongings, just as Shade had guessed, neither Mrs. Marquez, the "servant of the witch" nor the man who stole the Impermanence Card, had any luggage with them.
In addition to his own clothes, the former had a boot, which was the boot of Mrs. Marquez's original owner; the latter's pocket contained [Imcurity and Darkness], a card that Shade was all too familiar with.
Miss Chloe had a small package that she originally put under her head as a pillow. After opening it, I found two books, two notebooks and some miscellaneous items inside. The miscellaneous items included rings, spellcasting materials that Shade could not identify for the time being, paper and pens, women's hair accessories, perfume, etc.
