The Whispering Verses Chapter 1922: The Monster of Green Lake
Chapter 1922 The Monster of Green Lake
When Shade, who was hugging Luvia, opened his eyes on Wednesday morning, the first thing he thought of was not the "strange ceiling", but that this day had finally arrived.
Get up, let the cat out of the closet, wash up, go home to get goat milk and newspapers, and go to the hotel for dinner.
Priest August and Dr. Schneider did not have dinner with Shade today. They went out early in the rain. Priest August wanted to see the old ghoul Mr. Nicholas Green for the last time. The doctor, on the other hand, heard that there was a ghoul with a high IQ, and wanted to meet him together - he seemed to think that the other person's mental state was a very interesting research topic.
It was very rare that Dorothy, who should still be sleeping soundly after seven o'clock, actually got up. She had breakfast at the same table as Shade and Luvia. While Shade was reading the newspaper, the writer lady asked Luvia:
"You spent the night at his place last night, right?"
She is not unhappy about this, but confused:
"Did Shade lock the cat in the closet again? Why didn't he put little Mia in my place? Wouldn't that be more convenient?"
Xia De tilted his head and looked at her from behind the newspaper:
"I spend the night with Luvia and then let you take care of Mia. It will make me look more like. How do you say that word?"
"Slutty man?"
The girl with purple eyes said with a smile. After the cat said "meow~", they smiled even more happily.
Tonight is the time for the Edwards family banquet. All the actions in the past two months have been prepared for tonight. Tonight's enemy is the Edwards family, headed by Laplace Klein Howard, a traitor to the Seer Association and a diviner who transcends the Thirteenth Ring.
Beyond the Edwards family, there is the [Order of the Drowned in the Abyss], which has been relatively low-key recently, the [Tyranny Club], which was recently defeated by the church, the mysterious [Truth Society], which has never shown up, and other diviners that Shade is still unclear about. All alliances will become obstacles for him to land on the island.
In addition to the fortune teller himself, one-sixth of the death angel's skull, [poetry cards], [soul storybook], Envy Edwards, the eldest son of the third generation who transcends time and space, and the ancient evil object [the door in the bottle], These are huge dangers that ordinary ring warlocks cannot overcome.
This day was destined to be uneventful. After breakfast, news came that the entire water of Green Lake had turned green. Later, just after eight o'clock in the morning, as the rain slowed down, the cracks in the sky revealed behind the rain clouds were actually observed by ordinary people in the city.
Beyond Green Lake, the area with cracks in the sky already occupies one-third of the Old Continent. According to the characteristics of its dispersion speed getting faster and faster, this strange "astronomical phenomenon" should be observed in the entire material world tonight.
In the urban area of Green Lake, you can't see many people moving even on the main roads. It is obviously a working day on Wednesday, but due to the "Urban Waterlogging Disaster Warning" issued by the city hall in advance, the city has basically shut down all work and production. The citizens didn't know what happened, but the sense of danger passed down from generation to generation still made most people choose to huddle up at home on this rainy day and wait for the heavy rain to pass.
The phenomenon of spatial fusion is intensifying. In the eyes of ring warlocks, Green Lake City and Michaela Blast Furnace City appear more and more like the scenery of the cities on the other side. Even though the Prophet Association had warned in advance and the church relied on the church to arrange a space-stabilizing ceremony, as of ten o'clock in the morning, two space fusion phenomena still occurred in the urban area, causing nearly a hundred people to become chimera-like monsters.
Although the number of people affected so far in the Green Lake incident is far less than the "petrified plague" in the Randall Valley, the petrified curse can be rescued, and once a space mutation occurs, ordinary people will almost certainly die. undoubtedly.
At 10:30 in the morning, Shade, who was discussing with Miss Aurora in the basement how to leave the island tonight if nothing happened, learned that there was an abnormal element reaction in the alley east of the Green Lake Hotel.
He set off immediately, and after rushing there with Miss Sylvia, he found that the alley that was originally used for passage was only a hundred meters long, and now it was only five meters long when observed with the naked eye.
This is not the garbage alley where Little John used to stay. In addition to the Green Lake Hotel, there are other buildings on both sides of the alley. But those buildings were not damaged, it was just that the space of the alley itself was compressed.
"Small things, not serious, I can solve them myself."
Miss Sylvia put down her umbrella and prepared to cast a spell. Shade stepped forward and covered her head with the umbrella in his hand.
The witch smiled, and after reciting the incantation in a low voice, the power of the witch's secret technique gradually affected the surrounding space. The two of them stood motionless at the entrance of the alley, but saw that the alley continued to lengthen until it returned to its original length.
Miss Sylvia did not relax, but looked around seriously:
"Do you feel it?"
"Yes."
She took out the magic potion made by Megan using the "Colorful Mushrooms" and controlled the droplets to enter her eyes. In just a blink of an eye, she saw the three wolves gradually appearing in the space gap that gradually became stable. , a monster made up of a sheep and a giant fly.
Those creatures are not simply interspersed together, but are embedded bit by bit with different parts of the animals in a way that completely violates normal human logic and aesthetics. Even though Shade had seen many monsters in the past year, he still felt instinctively uncomfortable because of the shape of this monster.
At this moment, he even felt that the ghosts wandering between life and death in Fort Midhill were so cute and charming. After realizing his thoughts, Shade also understood more and more what his opponent was this time.
"Come together."
Miss Sylvia, who was also disgusted by the weird image of the monster in front of her, said softly, and then the two of them took a step forward at the same time, and then disappeared into the rain at the same time.
The four sheep-wolf heads of the space chimera monster look in all directions of the body, and the giant fly-headed compound eyes are densely packed with thousands of small eyes, monitoring all directions at the same time.
Xia De's figure appeared in front of him first, with his right foot on the ground——
"Space Stable Halo."
Leaning forward, the moonlight sword held in both hands fell head-on.
"Zhi buzz~Zhi buzz~"
Strange sounds came from the body of the terrifying monster. It tried to move in space, but the ripples caused by the water on the ground being pushed meant that the space stabilizing halo had been activated. As a result, the sound waves emitted by the monster became deeper and deeper. While the huge energy driven by the sound waves evaporated the rainwater on the body surface, Shade only felt that the sword he swung was as slow as if it had sunk into the mud.
Immediately afterwards, Miss Sylvia appeared behind Shade.
The witch's palm patted Shade's shoulder, and Shade immediately stopped his thaumaturgy to stabilize the space. The witch behind him grabbed Shade's right arm, and then swung the sword with him.
Invisible light flashed from the rain, and immediately turned into dark blue sword marks and fell. Thaumaturgy - Dimension Slash, was wielded by the witch's hand and Shade's sword, and the space-distorting strike and moonlight converged, splitting the monster in half that had just arrived in the material world.
It did not have the ability to split into two separate individuals. After the left and right parts fell into the pool on the ground, they turned into a pinch of white powder and disappeared in the strange light and shadow. Miss Sylvia took out the test tube and let the glass-like powder fly into the container.
These powders are consistent with the powders that Shade obtained from killing the space chimera with the doctor when he went to the island to find Lesia. After being identified by Granny Cassandra, this is an extremely rare "space dust" that can be used as a casting material for most space rituals and even thaumaturgy. For example, when Shade uses [Ragrai's Jump], he can completely replace the "Extract of Weather Vane Blue Grass" with a small amount of powder.
This is a rare material, and the source monsters of this material will also be like the fishmen in Coldwater Port, the undead in Fort Midhill, the plant monsters in the depths of the Pantanal Swamp, and the rocks in the Randall Valley. Like the djinn, it will become an inescapable nightmare for the Green Lake area in the next few hundred years.
Although the operation started in the evening, in order to prepare in advance, after a hasty lunch, the group of people on the cruise ship to Megan left first, planning to drive the cruise ship currently anchored on the Duin River upstream for a while distance.
Compared to Green Lake Hotel, although the defense of the cruise ship is not strong, its advantage is that it has good maneuverability and can even take off on the water. Therefore, although there are only Miss Benanis of the twelfth ring, Grandma Cassandra of the tenth ring, and Sister Devlin of the eleventh ring on the cruise ship, the security there is no worse than that of the Green Lake Hotel. You know, Grace and Helen are also with Granny Cassandra.
Although most of the two sisters' powers were sealed due to the "Sleeping Princess", even Shade was not entirely sure how much their powers had been restored within half a year.
Guests renting at the Green Lake Hotel have been leaving temporarily due to various reasons, either voluntarily or on their own initiative. After lunch, the hotel servants and the kitchen cooks and helpers also left together.
The followers of the witches finally settled in the hotel, and Lecia and Agelina also arrived this afternoon along with many of Miss Carina's maids.
The Day of the Red Butterfly has begun, and Dorothy even took Shade downstairs to greet Lesia. Although they all regretted that they could not have an intimate and passionate three-person date with Shade on this Red Butterfly Day, they also knew that this time was of great importance, so they held hands, hugged little Mia, and took Ajieli with them. Together with Na, we went to the room upstairs that had been taken care of by Miss Sylvia to wait for nightfall.
Little Mia is held by Agelina. She will stay with her sister all night. After all, theoretically it is the safest place in the entire hotel, and the cat and the little princess are in this hotel. The two weakest creatures in the world.
