The Whispering Verses Chapter 1281: The third guardian
"But I still completed it after all, and I didn't use any tricks or tricks."
Xia De said, the stone statue fell silent again, and then spoke:
"Yes, you completed it. I admit that this is better than I could imagine. In the material world, it may take hundreds or thousands of years to give birth to a person who can carve out such a The artist of the work. Ordinary craftsmen cannot give the statue this kind of beauty and this wonderful sense of mystery. The combination of the two is so wonderful that even if it is placed in a temple, people will be willing to worship it... …You passed the test, and there is no doubt that I can’t ask for a better piece of art.”
Xia De let out a sigh of relief. Although he was very confident in the memory of his hometown, he was finally relieved after hearing these words. Luvia didn't react at all, and still looked at the statue in wonder. As for the old stonemason Humphrey, at this moment, spots of light escaped from his body again, and this time he was really leaving:
"It's great to be able to see this kind of work before leaving. Young man, you are very good."
The old stonemason said, and Shade stretched out his hand to draw a dark crack so that the soul could go home directly.
"Thank you very much for your help, may your soul rest forever."
He sent his sincere blessings, and the old stonemason smiled and shook his head:
"I should thank you...Oh, maybe I should give you a little gift. Before I died, I once found a metal medal inside the stone when I was digging it. God knows where it came from. . I hid it in the association's warehouse. Unexpectedly, something happened to me before I could sell it. "
After telling the specific hiding place, the old mason's soul completely turned into a stream of light and entered the dark crack. The stream of light converged on the calm, dark water, and the old stonecutter reappeared. He turned around and waved to Shade and Luvia, and the glowing soul, together with thousands of departing souls, calmly moved away towards the half-sinking moon.
The cracks closed again, Xia De sighed slightly, and then asked the stonemason's stone statue:
"Now that I have passed the test, what can you give me?"
Luvia thought that what Shade said was a bit too straightforward, but the statue didn’t care:
"The master who created this place has left you with some power."
The sound of gears turning came from inside the stonemason statue. With a click, the surface of the stone statue, which had no trace of connection at all, actually opened a small door, and inside the small door was a smaller stonemason statue. Its appearance was completely different from that of the tall stone statue. consistent.
The statuette is densely covered with golden luminous runes, and you can feel the element of miracles even without looking at it. There is also a letter and some documents pressed under the statuette.
Shad took the small statue and handed the document to Luvia to read, while he himself read the letter:
【Latercomers:
Put the statue on your chest and sink your consciousness into the earth, and you can learn to "call the stone statue with the power of the earth". If you are interested in the power of the earth, if you want to understand the secrets of the Randall Valley, the stonemason statue that gives you the test can give you the next clue. It will be a long road of exploration, and I will be on the road. The end of the world awaits you. The document below the letter represents one-tenth of the shares that belonged to me when the Masons' Guild was established. Hope this helps. ――Mason Fleming】…
"Huh?"
"Xia De, these documents are..."
Luvia had already seen the contents of the file and handed it to Shade in surprise.
"I know, but the original shares of the Masons' Association have long been divided or sold by subsequent successors. It is difficult to say whether the current Masons' Association recognizes these original documents."
Xia De said that the share documents were not important. He frowned and handed the letter to Luvia:
"Look at this. The deed I just saw in the president's office shows that the association was founded in 1037 of the Universal Calendar. And Fleming, the stonemason who lived about 800 years ago, actually also had the power of the earth. It is very interesting that after disappearing, it is very interesting. What mission do these souls shoulder? Inherit the power of the earth and guide them.
The guardian of a generation. Everyone will leave more or less one or even many clues, waiting for latecomers to discover. This is obviously an older clue. If we follow it up..."
He looked up at the stonemason statue:
"I need further clues, and I am very interested in the secrets of the Randall Valley."
Unexpectedly, the mason statue refused this time:
"Sorry, you are late. The chain of clues left by the founder has been broken in this era. If you want to know the secrets of the Randall Valley, you can look for answers elsewhere."
"After all, it's been so many years."
Luvia said softly, and Shade felt slightly sorry. But at the same time, I also understand that the guardians of the past generations must have left more clues and more power in this city. In addition to them, the possibility of other inheritances of "Power of the Earth" cannot be ruled out.
As he spoke, everything in front of him began to become blurry. When the surrounding scene stabilized, Shade and Luvia once again stood on the third floor of the Masons' Association, as if everything just now was just an illusion.
But it was definitely not an illusion. The documents and letters were in Luvia's hands, and the small statue was in Shade's hands. Even the broken-arm statue "carved" by Shade still stood in front of him. And everything else, those densely packed statues, the charcoal stove, even the works of the old stonemason and Luvia, have disappeared.
"It's really amazing. How did that space appear independently just now?"
Luvia sighed and looked up at the ceiling, but she could not find the hidden secret room again. After Shade passed the test, the secret room completely disappeared.
"The establishment of the secret room should not be just the work of the stonemason Fleming. I guess the other guardians of the year should have helped him. Otherwise, given his age when he disappeared, there is no reason for him to have so many skills."
Shad replied, jumping up suddenly and touching the ceiling with his hands, but felt nothing.
Luvia thought for a moment:
"Judging from this incident, it seems that the secret guardians of the Randall Valley are just pulling people around...well...it is certainly not appropriate to describe them as liars, but obviously they did not explain that there are Maybe all the guardians are dead souls."
"For so many years, they have not been discovered by others and have maintained a relatively intact inheritance. There must be a reason for this. I am really curious about this, how did they do it"...
Xia De said, taking out a small handkerchief from his pocket, and after restoring the canvas toy to canvas, he covered the artistic stone statue:
"This can't be wasted. It happens to be Princess Agelina's birthday this weekend, and I'm still worried about what gift to give."
Although the princess got the crown on Monday, it is now kept with him, so he promised to send another gift.
"Agelina Cavendish? That sister of Princess Lesia?"
Luvia raised her eyebrows, indicating that she approved of Shade's approach, and then raised the document in her hand:
"What are you going to do with the original shares of the Masons' Association?"
"I will cash it myself, but the association will most likely not recognize it, or will only give me a few kroner as compensation. I plan to give this to Margaret. For her, this document is The symbolic significance is far greater than its practical significance. If she can really realize this share after handling the matter of the Masons Association, she will not treat me badly."
"You really know how to take advantage of others."
Luvia smiled and thought this method of treatment was appropriate. The two turned around to go down the stairs and go to the warehouse to see the medal that the old stonemason Humphrey mentioned before leaving.
"As for [The Power of the Earth Calling the Stone Statue], although it is a free power, I already have a healing aura. Learning new powers will not make my healing aura stronger. Summoning spells or thaumaturgy , usually very useful, but... this is not suitable for me, and I also want to try to see if there are other possible candidates."
Shad said and looked at Luvia again, but the purple-eyed girl was not interested either
Interest:
"I also have the power of the earth and the field of fertility. So who are you going to give it to? Iluna?"
"Iluna made it clear that she does not want the power of the earth, and she has already shouldered enough responsibilities."
"Miss Lassers? Or Miss Benanis?"
Luvia asked again.
"Miss Benanis. After all, she is the Eleventh Ring. She can exert greater power, which will increase her combat effectiveness and help us in our subsequent local operations. And if she is the chosen one, I I know this is very unlikely, but if she is, then things in Randall Valley City will be much easier to handle."
Although Luvia has met Miss Benanis many times and is very sure that she is not the chosen one from "Earth", this does not mean that Ms. Benanis is not a candidate for the next one. Later candidates need to be closer to their own destiny to be revealed. Just like Priest Augustus, Luvia had known him for so many years, but it wasn't until almost the end of the Fort Midhill incident that she recognized him as the successor to "Death".
"I'm afraid it won't be that simple, right? In my opinion, Mr. Lassus and Mr. Granger are more likely. They must be related to the Chosen One."
Luvia shook her head slightly, but this was just a guess.
When I came to the warehouse again to look for the medal, nothing went wrong. The old mason hid it in the gap between the tool cabinet against the wall and the wall, and even found a stone to cover it.
Fortunately, no one discovered it in the past six months, so Shade just used a spell to "move the object", and the metal medal flew out automatically.
The official medal issued by Kasenlik, with the name of the medal stamped on the back by the Metropolitan. Luvia didn't know much about the medal system in the South, while Shade knew a little bit about it from Margaret, so he knew it was a "Kasenrik Third Class Combat Hero Medal."
The "Kassenrik Combat Hero Medal Third Class" is a very low-end medal, so there is not even a number on the medal. But the owner of the medal had words engraved on the back. The light from Shade's fingertips illuminated the words and the slightly familiar last name:
【In memory of Fury Oxenfurt's lost left index finger. 】
