The Whispering Verses Chapter 2040: Pluto and Silver Moon


The calm did not last long. Mr. Bernhardt’s ghost appeared again, standing next to the fountain statue in the center of the square that was mostly covered by yellow sand. Except for the figure that seemed to be swaying with the wind, it itself was He remained motionless under the strange black sun, paying no attention to the witch standing by the wall.

It did not catch up with Shade just now. After Shade absorbed part of the essence of Grace and Helen, the two thaumaturgic skills of "Red Butterfly Incarnation" and "Red Butterfly Illusion" almost became his own talents. The effect has been improved to a very high level. Although the immortal soul is powerful in other aspects, its illusion resistance has not yet reached a level that can break the red butterfly.

But it didn't wait too long, and soon looked up and looked ahead. I saw that the gorgeous silver bow at the top of the crooked building had been opened at this moment. On the drawn bow string, a slender silver-blue arrow made of twinkling starlight was shot out the moment it noticed the bow.

The ghost figure next to the fountain disappeared and appeared ten meters away. After the arrow penetrated its afterimage, it directly hit the fountain statue, but nothing happened.

The ghost who discovered that the attack was an illusion had no time to dodge, because Shade, holding the "Thunder Gun" in both hands, appeared directly behind it after its figure became clear.

This time, there wasn’t even time to react. The [Yectrasil Staff] attached to the thunder penetrated directly through the chest of the vampire ghost. The paralysis effect brought by the jumping silver-white thunder made it unable to move, but what was more deadly was the pink crystal that appeared at the "wound" that penetrated the spirit body.

The effects of the Love God's Thorn were superimposed on those of thunder and lightning. Although the vampire's ghost could not be completely crystallized because of its extremely powerful soul, in the end, this strange soul was still dispersed in the lightning.

"It's finally over."

The panting Sha De just wanted to breathe a sigh of relief, but then he turned around suddenly and saw the pale soul appearing behind him again.

His hands were pinching Shade's neck. While he was retreating to dodge the floating ghost, he asked in his heart:

"What's going on? Isn't that the original body just now?"

[Yes, it is indeed the original body. But how do you destroy a soul that has reached its end? 】

"You don't want to say that the other party cannot be eliminated, right?"

Astonished Shade asked, but all he heard was "her" laughter.

"She" did not give Shade the answer, so Shade had to find it on his own. But Shade didn't have much time left. If he stayed in the doomsday for too long, his body and mind were becoming more and more seriously affected. Although the perfume vial can replenish the spirit, the liquid in the bottle will always be consumed.

"Do you need help? This enemy cannot be killed by normal means, but if you just want to defeat it, I can help you. The seal of time is effective for immortal souls."

The witch at the door saw Shade's predicament at the moment, so she asked, but Shade refused:

"Please wait a moment, I have one last idea."

Although this may be a bit whimsical, Shade decided to give it a try.

As he was retreating and dodging, his free left hand lit up with the light of the silver moon, and then the light gradually grew stronger until a silver ball of light appeared in his palm.

Although Shade has not specifically learned the basic spell - Light Ball Spell, as long as he masters the "Light Spell", this basic spell can be developed by himself.

After the silver ball of light appeared, Shade stood still and did not retreat. With a slight throw, the light ball flew behind him, and then grew larger and larger until the diameter of the silver light ball exceeded Shade's height, making Shade seem to be standing in front of the moon in the yellow sand in the sky.

The ghost was still floating toward him, and Shade was ready, with the hand holding the staff and his free hand spread out to the left and right. A huge life ring emerged from the steam mist, slowly merging with the huge silver light behind it.

On the life ring, the whisper - [True Death] originally exuded an ambiguous and fuzzy black iron-colored aura, but in the face of the strong moonlight, it seemed to turn into silver.

Shad didn't try to defend or attack, he just opened his arms, as if waiting for the soul to "come" in front of the moon. He desperately recalled the mood when he stood on the waters of "real death". When the soul had arrived in front of him and wanted to touch his heart and throat with his hands, he asked softly:

"Armand Bernhardt, do you want to continue?"

The young man in black in front of the "moon" asked the soul who tried to take his life in the yellow sand. The silver light seemed to melt him into the light, but it also seemed like the silver moonlight was hiding behind him to show its tenderness. The wonderful combination created an even more wonderful sense of holiness, but the mere sound of the vocal cords vibrating the air made the soul stop.

The witch on the edge of the square looked at this scene, her golden eyes reflecting the light of the silver moon. For some reason, this scene actually made her want to cry.

And the strange soul was bathed in the moonlight, and the blurred and distorted face was finally completely clear, completely revealing the appearance of Mr. Bernhardt. It said nothing, retracted its hand, and bowed its head slightly towards the young man in front of it under the moonlight.

Shad hesitated for a moment, then gently tapped his shoulder with [Yuktrasil's Staff]:

"Now, you have reached the end."

The soul disintegrated into points of light and flew farther away with the strong wind and yellow sand. Under the dim sky, only the cards drifted into Shade's hands with the wind. Behind Shade, the moonlight dissipated, and the life ring was hidden in the soul again.

He took the card and exhaled deeply.

[Outlander, you have sent away a soul that cannot leave, and the soul is forever at peace. 】

[Your soul strength has been slightly increased. 】

Pause a moment:

[Very good, how did you come up with the idea of ​​doing this? 】

"She" asked gently in his ear.

"Last time when I bid farewell to Sloth Edwards and welcomed back Rusty Edwards, I inexplicably gained a soul enhancement. At that time, I also said, when did I become a mourner. Silver Moon, Ming Yue. If everything comes to an end and even death ceases to exist, then let me send the last ray of Ming Yue's light to this time and space."

【How arrogant, a foreigner~】

Although "she" said this, her smile became more and more gentle.

Shad did not look at the card in his hand first, because the previous two experiences showed that once Shad read the memory of the "past life" in the card, it would mean the end of this adventure, and he would It's time to leave.

Miss Adele Isabella was walking towards him in the square with a strange pilgrim mood. Shade took out the pink perfume bottle and took a sip to restore his consumption. Because of the birthday "party", the concentration of the essence in this bottle is now such that the bottle itself can be illuminated at night.

"Look, I just said I can solve it myself."

After regaining his energy a little, he smiled and said to the witch in front of him. The great witch of time pursed her lips and didn't know how to evaluate what he had just done. The holy moonlight almost made her think that the **** had appeared again.

"My idea just now was to freeze its time, make it incapable of action, and then use sealing to banish it outside the square. In my opinion, that soul does not have any possibility of elimination."

She explained her thoughts, then looked at Shade quite formally and said:

"I admit that Luvia Anat's vision has always been so good, and she was right to choose you."

With a certain stubbornness in her golden eyes, she stretched out her hand to Shade:

"Formally introduce yourself, Adele Isabella, the last speaker of the Witch Council. In this era of doomsday, this era that should have been destroyed, there are only a few survivors left, but it is also the last Poor man. I hope I can get your help, I hope you will accept my guidance, stop Luvia Anat for the sake of this world, and then face the end."

"Of course it's okay for this world. As for stopping Luvia, we still have to see what the 'Hope Diamond' will tell me."

Xia De said equally seriously and held her hand. Miss Isabella was obviously not very used to such contact with a man, but her hands only trembled and did not shake him away.

Xia De then took the initiative to let go:

"The power of time is so fascinating. If you are willing to teach me, of course I am willing to accept it. It's just that the sixth era I am in is very different from your time. Although you say you don't want to know what happened in my time But I still want to tell you the story of my experience."

The witch nodded this time:

"Okay."

"Let's go home and talk. Oh, I forgot to introduce you. In my time, No. 6 Saint Teresa Square was my home. It was left to me by my uncle Sparrow Hamilton before his death."

The great witch of time nodded slightly again, but could not say what she wanted to say.

The two returned to the building. After sitting down on the sofa on the second floor, Shade briefly talked about the six chosen ones who had appeared in the Sixth Era so far. He was increasingly affected by the apocalypse, so he couldn't tell in detail what happened each time this time around. But even the brief introduction has already surprised the great witch of time.

For a moment, she thought Luvia had given up on her plan this time, but then she immediately thought that these might be part of Luvia's plan. And when Shade finished summarizing the story of the Edwards family in a few sentences, he didn't even have time to explain the complicated situation of the space chosen ones, and he had to cover his forehead to resist the strong feeling of dizziness.

"If this doesn't work, you should leave first. We will meet again, and we can tell your story another time."

The blond witch with a tear mole under her right eye said worriedly, and Shade also knew that he couldn't force it anymore:

"Well, next time we continue to tell these stories, I will definitely call you out again."

The latter pursed his lips and nodded:

"I will also organize the knowledge I want to teach you, and I will not forget it."

"That's not what I mean. What I mean is that if you survive in such a doomsday era, you will always be alone looking at the dim sky. If no one talks to you often, even if you still have the protection of the power of the parliament, sooner or later Will you lose all your humanity?"

He smiled at Miss Adele Isabella:

"I will chat with you every time I come here until I have to leave. I should be the only person you have left to chat with. If you are willing to teach me knowledge and power, I will try my best to help you."

It's a pity that Shade can't leave any daily necessities here. Unlike ordinary time keys, the reality of the end of the world is that even the concept of time is blurred. Any changes he makes here will be forgotten after he leaves. Completely disappear.

[No, if you only leave a few items, it should be fine. Of course, only a small amount. 】

"She" reminded quite gently.

Listening to Shade's words and looking at the smiling face of the young man in front of her even though she was depressed, Miss Witch felt that her cheeks were getting a little hot for some unknown reason.
