The Whispering Verses Chapter 1732: Love and Desire

"Huh? How can there be a woman more beautiful than the Great Witch?"

I felt suddenly alert, and then the feeling of being charmed disappeared instantly. Shade stood up immediately. He couldn't believe that when his mental resistance was so high and he had so many anti-charm blessings, he was actually charmed by an oil painting that had no elemental response.

I knew I could never look at that painting again, but I still subconsciously glanced at it again. Then I felt that although the face shape, hair color and eye color were very different, the underwater woman in the painting had the ultimate The beautiful temperament, and the unique charm that makes people more and more fascinated the more they look at it, and they even want to kill the current owner and take it as their own, all of which suddenly reminded Shade of something familiar to him.

"This can't be..."

He subconsciously took two steps back. While his eyes widened, he felt that the painting had not changed at all, but it became more and more attractive that he could not resist. Shade swallowed subconsciously, and then, the woman with slightly squinted eyes on the screen moved as he expected, turned her head to look at him outside the screen, and then winked at him and smiled.

At that moment, Shade felt as if his heart had stopped beating. Part of this was because he was shocked by the charm, and on the other hand, it was because he had confirmed what the oil painting depicted:

"Desire!"

To be more precise, this is what ordinary painters think of as desire.

Cold sweat broke out on Shade's back, but Mr. Upton seemed not to have seen the woman in the painting move at all, and was still talking endlessly about the inspiration he got from the painting.

Until this moment, Shade realized that he had been focusing all his attention on that painting from just now until now, and had not heard what Mr. Upton was saying at all.

The woman in the painting also returned to her static appearance at this time. However, her expression stayed as she turned to look at Shade, but Mr. Upton still didn't notice this.

He almost finished talking excitedly about the inspiration he got from this painting, and said with emotion to Shade:

"I am really lucky to get this painting. I think the painter must have seen the mermaid, right? I really hope that I can also see it..."

"Mr. Upton!"

Xia De interrupted him immediately, and after twitching the corner of his mouth, he made up his mind and asked:

"Do you sell this painting?"

But the slovenly man immediately shook his head:

"I will never sell it, not for any money. This is the love of my life, and I will keep it with me until I take it to my grave."

After speaking, he looked at Shade warily:

"I won't tell you where I will be buried in the future."

Xia De pursed his lips and glanced at the painting warily. In fact, when he heard words like "Pink Book" and "Charm", "Flesh" and "Happiness" just now, he should have understood what he was doing. What exactly happened.

The portraits of level zero relics, even if they are just portraits painted by ordinary people, have extraordinary power. He can now feel the suffocating whispering element, but he absolutely cannot say the name and information of "Desire".

"Okay, okay, this visit is over, you should leave quickly."

Mr. Upton seemed to realize that Shade, who was frowning and thinking at the moment, was "plotting evil", and forcibly drove Shade to the hotel corridor, and closed the door in front of Shade. Shade raised his hand to knock again, but finally put his hand down:

"This is really troublesome."

Although "Desire" has always had a good attitude towards him, he will not forget that it is a top-level zero-level relic. Theoretically speaking, apart from the arrival of the evil god, it would be difficult for anything more dangerous than her to appear in the material world.

If "Desire" really appeared in the Green Lake area because of that painting, Shade couldn't imagine what would happen next. This is definitely not his worry for nothing. The painting has just shown signs of activation, and waters like Green Lake are exactly the place where "desire" likes to land:

"This is really..."

He is now nominally a friend of the Fulun brothers. For the sake of the reputation of the Fulun brothers, he cannot steal or rob. In the end, Shade decided that it would be better to report to the church anonymously. There are already three thirteen-ring warlocks from the church in Green Lake Diocese, so this is the safest method at present.

But he did not do so in the end, because when he went to Ms. Hope's room to hand over the gold pound for obtaining the thaumaturgy, and then went to Mr. Richard upstairs to ask for the copy, he Got very unexpected news.

Shad did not take the initiative to reveal what he knew in front of Ms. Hope or Mr. Richard, but when Ms. Hope and Shad arrived on the fourth floor together and the three of them sat down on the sofa, they Mr. Chad asked curiously:

"Mr. Watson, you don't look well."

"Mr. Upton's room gives me a very bad feeling."

Mr. Richard frowned and looked at Ms. Hope cautiously, and the latter asked cautiously;

"He...won't let you see that painting, right?"

Shad was shocked, and immediately realized that the painting had been in Mr. Upton's hands for a long time. Since he could show it to Shad, a person he had just met, there was no way he hadn't shown it to others. . The two Eros believers in front of them obviously knew something.

"Yes."

Xia De nodded and said tentatively:

"That painting is strange..."

While the other two were observing his expressions, he was also observing theirs:

"There is a very beautiful woman on top...like a mermaid."

Mr. Richard's hand suddenly tightened on the armrest of the sofa, and Ms. Hope's brows tightened:

"Did you...see anything else?"

The two of them looked like they were worried that Shade would get violent and take action.

Xia De shook his head:

"No."

The believers of the God of Love breathed a sigh of relief, and then heard Shade’s next words:

"I looked away in time. Because that thing reminded me of the information about a relic I saw before. I couldn't believe that my judgment was correct. After all, the danger level of that relic was very high. ."

Three pairs of eyes looked at each other, everyone was nervous and alert.

"What relic is it?"

Mr. Richard asked, taking a deep breath and not even daring to spit it out.

"Don't say the name!"

Seeing that Shade was about to open his mouth, Ms. Hope suddenly reminded her, her voice became quite high-pitched, but she didn't care about her gaffe at all.

Xia De nodded, raised his hand, and gestured with the number "0".

Mr. Richard raised his hands to cover his eyes, and then exhaled the breath he was holding. Ms. Hope shivered, closed her eyes and prayed to God.

"So, you also know about it?"

Xia De asked, then realized that his palms were sweating. It took a long time before the other two people gave their answer:

"Yes, of course I know. That thing was our biggest enemy before the sect disappeared."

"What?"

“My lord once told me to take good care of its seal before he left...Yes, my lord, the old god-[God of Love], or also known as the [Red Heart Lock], It was sealed in the Fifth Age, but after the Order gradually collapsed, how could we not know who was painted in that painting?"

Shad leaned back on the sofa, his eyes widened and his heart beat rapidly.

But this is definitely not because of nervousness or fear, but because of excitement. Information about [Desire] has always been difficult to find, and even the ancient [Spiritual Cult] only recorded a few words.

And now, the opportunity to learn more about the level 0 relic that always appeared around him finally appeared.

It was also the first time that Mr. Richard and Ms. Hope met someone who also knew the information about the relic, so when they saw that it was noon, they invited Shade to have lunch with them.

However, they did not dare to eat in the hotel, but went to a restaurant two blocks away. Because I was afraid of the painting, after dinner, I took a carriage and walked for a long time away from the city center and away from the water. Finally, I arrived at the tavern in Little Liton Village, which is located in the northern suburbs of Michaela Blast Furnace City and is attached to the city.

Spring is the busiest season for farmers, and it is the afternoon after lunch, so there are very few people in the tavern in the small village. The three of them sat down in the corner, and the believers of the God of Love sat opposite Shade. They didn't start talking until the bartender brought the drinks and put them on the table.

"If you know that thing, there is no reason why Mr. Upton doesn't know it. Why did he still hold on to the painting instead of destroying it immediately?"

This is the issue that Shade is most concerned about. Mr. Richard shook his head:

"Of course Upton knew about that stuff, but he was obsessed. You know what I mean, he was into it. It wasn't that he wasn't strong-willed, it was that stuff... We There was no way to separate him from the painting, or even to tell anyone else about it. The message itself was a source of contamination, and all we could do was keep trying to get Upton to wake up. Fortunately, the painting was unknown. The desire seen by the painter..."

He almost said the word, immediately closed his mouth, and looked around nervously.

Ms. Hope helped him finish the sentence:

"That painting is something reflected in someone else's heart, and Upton has always been very religious, so there is still hope. You can see that he is basically normal now, but his personality is a bit weird, but in fact within a year In the past, he spent all day looking at the painting in his room, and he was on the verge of losing control. He even took the initiative to throw the painting into the lake. His condition is much better now. We believe that he will be able to try it in another half year. 'Borrow' the painting from him."

Xia De nodded to express understanding:

"But this is still dangerous. The longer the delay, the more likely it is that problems will occur. That painting may attract it, this is almost certain."
