The Whispering Verses Chapter 1603: Recognition, agreement and escape
Shad wanted to explore more possibilities through dialogue, but the soul of the blacksmith who used language to trigger dialogue, except for responding to the "key", has been floating above the tombstone in silence.
"My knowledge can explain this situation."
Xia De’s abrupt words prevented the pharmacist lady from immediately realizing that Sha De was talking to her. After understanding who Xia De was talking to, he looked at him in surprise:
"Stop joking, do you think this is the first time I encounter this situation? Why do you think I collect adamantine, mithril and orichalcum? I have checked a lot of information, but I don’t have any precise knowledge. , can explain the cause of these weird souls, this is not an ordinary method, these souls are very natural, there is no trace of being modified or manipulated, even if you are born in St. Byrons, I can be sure that even St. The Thirteen Rings Red Moon Witch in Byrons can’t explain the origin of these souls.”
She is very confident:
"As for wisdom and knowledge, although I will not be arrogant enough to think that I am better than everyone else, there are not many people in this era who can compare with me."
Shad withdrew his eyes from the blacksmith's soul and turned to look at her:
"Three possibilities."
"Huh?"
"First, the ancient messenger of death, who manipulates and even transforms souls on a large scale here. He is the most devout believer of the ancient god, helping the ancient **** of death to bid farewell to the souls that refuse to leave in the material world."
"But in our era, there should be no such life form that approximates the rules themselves. Even if it exists, it cannot easily appear here."
The pharmacist lady is obviously well-informed and knows what Shade is talking about. But she was wrong about one thing. Joanne Patton and Ms. Marilyn Handel were definitely the messengers of death. And Sister Devlin, the chosen one of death, if she is willing to put in the effort and time, she might not be able to transform such a soul.
Of course, the situation here cannot be related to them.
"Wait, you actually know this?"
She asked Shade suspiciously, and Shade continued:
"The second possibility is the evil spirit demon of the third era - Bishop the Soul Stealer. This is a soul-stealing demon, and he likes to use the souls he stole to build a story stage, and then never stops. Let those souls perform tragedies one after another. This is very similar to the situation here."
Moon 9’s [Devil and Soul Stealer Bishop] was won by Shade from the demonologist Mr. Sean Asmon when he first met him at the Pink Rose Inn in Coldwater Port. card. Later, Shade and Dr. Schneider discussed various demons, and the doctor mentioned this one.
"Are there evil spirits from the third era? It is indeed possible. If the Edwards family prayed to the devil for the elixir of life and then ended up like this, it would be consistent with my understanding of those evil monsters."
The sorceress murmured to herself, but Shade thought this possibility was very small.
First of all, he failed to detect any demonic power, and there was no trace of the thaumaturgy [Seeing Demon]. Moreover, Dr. Schneider, the "demon expert", told Shad many demon stories. If this was really a story stage set up by demons, what they would see would not be an abandoned town in the white mist, but the ruins everywhere in the black mist. , a dirty and strange place of night.
"Your knowledge is indeed very profound, and you understand this kind of existence in the third era."
The pharmacist lady praised again:
"This is the first time I have seen a man as powerful as you. Keep talking, you have won my friendship. What is the last possibility?"
The sorceress asked again. Shade narrowed his eyes slightly, touched the tombstone in front of him and said:
"The last possibility, angel-level relic ["Soul Storybook"]."
This is the knowledge that Shade gained from [Witch Reverberation Luvia]. Although this memory is not complete, because it is partial information of a level 1 relic, he is very impressed:
“I don’t know much about this, I only know that the relic itself is a book. By demarcating a certain area, you can write stories to regulate the behavior of the souls, and even give them powers related to the stories. The reason why I guess this is because it meets the characteristics of strange environment, soul gathering and soul interpretation of stories."
"What kind of relic is this? Why haven't I heard of it? What force took it in?"
The pharmacist lady asked hesitantly, Shade glanced at her and did not answer directly. Because this book is not recorded at all now, this book was contained and recorded by Luvia Anat. Because ["Soul Storybook"] is also related to "destiny", it is one of the main relics of Long-haired Luvia, similar to Shade's [Night Watch] and [Twenty-sided Dice of Destiny].
"Ma'am, be humble, no one can know everything."
"But I am... the most outstanding sorceress."
The lady with short light brown hair raised her head slightly, and Shade laughed:
"These are my guesses, and maybe all three are wrong. I'm not interested in the key, I just want to find all the Edwards. If you want the key, I can give it up without you Fight, but you have to tell more about Edwards."
The pharmacist just thought about it for two seconds and nodded:
"Okay, but after I collect the materials, you have to go to the island with me and see this soul again. You just made a mistake. Regarding the memory of newborns, it is not about retrieving memories, but taking out a Symbolic items related to the birth of the Edwards family’s newborn, such as blood-stained cloth and umbilical cord.”
She stared at Shade one meter away:
"I admit that you are a peculiar man. Originally, I only helped you because of your relationship with Mother-in-law Natalie. Now I know that your skills are outstanding. With your help, what I have to do It will go more smoothly. When my affairs make progress, I can give you the information you want, and I can even give you wealth, relics, knowledge and power. The sorceress of the Eleventh Ring has this confidence, but you still have to guarantee it. , cannot come within 1 meter of me in any way."
"Yes, when you are ready to leave, send a letter to Green Lake Hotel, and I will go to the island with you again. After all, I had planned to go to the island again, but don't forget your promise."
This is a good cooperation, and Xia De naturally agreed, but he added:
"But why are you so wary of me? Madam, although it is offensive to say this, I have a woman I like, and she is much more beautiful than you."
[Are you deliberately irritating her? 】
The voice in my ear asked with a chuckle, and the pharmacist lady showed a dismissive expression:
"My current face and your current face are both fake. Can you guess my real beauty? Mr. Watson, please don't be too confident in your female companion. If one day in the future, you have that It’s an honor to see my real face, I hope you won’t be too surprised.”
Xia De laughed secretly in his heart, and his guess about the identity of the pharmacist in front of him was further confirmed. He wanted to say something more to test further, but a strange buzzing sound in the distance interrupted him.
The two stood up from the tablecloth together and looked into the white mist. Unfortunately, due to the limitation of their field of vision, they could not see anything.
[Something came to the normal material world through the fragile space. Be careful, it's a big guy. 】
While I was wondering, the fog suddenly faded away from the surrounding area, allowing the originally restricted vision to return to the way it looked when I landed on the island. They saw more tombstones in the town cemetery. The rows of tombstones were arranged without any regularity. Even the styles of the tombstones were different. It was as if whenever someone died, the location and style of the tombstone were chosen at random. .
"The time for losing your sense of direction has passed? So quickly? It's only been less than twenty minutes?"
Xia De asked the pharmacist in surprise, but the latter was not very clear either;
"Whenever I have experienced this kind of thing before, I have to wait at least an hour... to be careful!"
The dark tentacles covered with abscesses and black mucus silently shot towards the two of them from the woods on the side of the cemetery. The tentacles were as thick as Shade's two waists.
Shad was already wary of the attack. After being reminded, he immediately turned back and swung his right leg back like a whip. The dazzling silver moonlight attached to the leg, collided head-on with the thick tentacle, and pushed it along Kicked back to the forest:
"The power is smaller than mine, but if the tentacles are so big, it's hard to imagine the size of the body. What is this? Isn't this island safe except for the fog?"
"I don't know either, what is this?"
The pharmacist lady was equally surprised, even more surprised than Shade:
"Never encountered this before."
"Come on, something is starting to look wrong here! Which direction leads to the dock?"
Xia De looked at the mist in the direction where the tentacles disappeared and asked. The sorceress hurriedly pointed the way, and they walked quickly among the tombstones in the cemetery. But before he took a few steps, Shade suddenly threw the thunder gun at the sorceress in front of him, and then the thunder gun passed over the side of her face and penetrated the mist in front of her.
There was nothing there, but the sharp screams showed that there were indeed invisible enemies around.
"Madam, since you are the eleventh ring, cast a spell to protect us quickly. The situation here is very wrong. This is not an invisible enemy. The enemy is hidden in other spaces, but it can interfere with our space. The island's Space has become more unstable! ”
"I didn't lie just now, I can't cast spells at will now!"
As she spoke, the pharmacist lady wanted to retreat to Shade, but thinking of her own situation, she did not come over. Instead, she took out a few bottles of potions from the small bag and drank them, then threw two completely transparent bottles to Shade:
"Potion that enhances perception and restores spirit. Save it, you know the value of the latter."
[Left. 】
"She" reminded softly in his ear, so Shade flew out the shadow ball with his right hand. The light-absorbing black ball touched the air, and then the petrified outline appeared in the air. It looked like a four-dimensional shadow ball. monkey with hands.
