The Whispering Verses Chapter 517: Crossing Moonlight
Using the power of his fixed hands, Shade twisted his waist and kicked his legs forward. At the same time, he desperately recalled the last time when his divinity overflowed, and used [Moonlight Slash] to smash the giant mermaid corpse.
It is not that he has not studied improving and changing his own thaumaturgy, but whether it is [Moonlight Slash] or [Moonlight Great Sword], a higher ring warlock level and more spiritual runes are needed to complete the further progress. of sublimation.
But when the divinity overflows, Shade not only realizes the power beyond the thirteen rings, but also realizes how he can still use the power. Facing the oppression of darkness at this time, I suddenly remembered the scene of Miss Aurora writing shining words in the air with her fingers in the [Witch Council] not long ago. Then I remembered the last moment of the decisive battle in Coldwater Port, my own flash of inspiration. Flashing action.
Behind him, the core spirit runes of [Silver Moon] flashed suddenly.
The silver light around the body expanded violently. His right foot was above the devil's face, kicking out a moonlight slanting from the lower left to the upper right. Then his left foot was above the devil's face, drawing a line of moonlight from the upper left to the lower right. moonlight.
The two rays of light formed a cross pattern, but they did not fly out immediately like the previous [Moonlight Slash], but solidified in the air.
"Hey!"
Shad curled up with his legs together, and then kicked his feet forward violently in a suspended position.
Two kicks hit the moonlight cross floating in the air, and then the cross moonlight cut into the devil's vertical pupils with the power of both feet.
The intersecting moonlight was brighter than ever before, and the gorgeous light also gave the devil a sense of crisis. As a last resort, it let go of Shade's right hand with its left hand and quickly raised its left arm in front of its face in defense.
The Moonlight Cross, kicked out by Shade's feet, first easily destroyed the sleeve of the robe after contacting the demon's thick black right arm, and then collided with the black energy seeping out of the demon's skin. The melting black energy cut through the skin, and before the last ray of moonlight disappeared, the demon's left arm was almost split into four.
"Ah~"
Amidst the crazy and terrifying roar, the demon lifted Shade and wanted to throw him to the ground. But Shade had already thrown away the dried frog legs, and used his left hand that was grabbed by the demon to swing hard. While turning his body, he pulled out the moonlight sword from the air with his right hand and stabbed his opponent's right arm.
Because the demon's left arm was seriously injured, he could only release Shade with his right hand to resist the moonlight sword. Shade also took this opportunity to lightly kick his feet on the arm raised by the devil, and then jumped back with the reaction force.
After rotating 360 degrees in the air, he landed smoothly on the ground and successfully distanced himself from the opponent.
The erect-eyed demon in black robe did not attack again out of rage. The surrounding darkness converged on its severely injured left arm, and the arm with black blood flowing was rapidly recovering. It seems that in this dark realm, these demons derived from relics are almost immortal.
"That kick just now is indeed worthy of praise, but you still can't defeat me."
The blasphemous language is indeed true. Although Shade has made changes to the thaumaturgy [Silver Moon Slash], exchanging a few extra seconds of preparation time for a substantial increase in power, but he wants to rely on this It may still be impossible to defeat this terrifying thing in front of me. The opponent was almost suppressing him in the fight, and Shade didn't think he had any chance of defeating the devil:
"Yes, so wait for me for three seconds, and I will fight you again after three seconds."
Shad said seriously that while the demon was absorbing the darkness to heal himself, he had also rummaged through his pocket to find the time key to the Fifth Age 1784:
"May the World Tree protect me in infinite time."
He spoke quickly, holding the key in his right hand and inserting it into the pendant held by his left hand.
There was a click sound, the keyhole was turned, the door leaf of the door-shaped pendant was pulled open with the key, and white mist floated out from behind the model door frame like silk.
The black demon picked up the black fire human bones on the ground and threw them at Shade, but Shade had already put his finger into the door frame:
"See you in three seconds."
The relics he carried fell to the ground together with the door pendant. The black fire human bones passed through Shade's disappearing shadow and were inserted diagonally behind where he originally stood.
[Outlander, you have stepped into the "corridor of time". 】
[Message from the ancient **** "Father of the Infinite Tree":]
[Winter of 1784 in the Fifth Age, Northern Continent, Dreadfort. 】
[Event: Gambling - Game of Life. 】
【Duration is twenty minutes (3/3). 】
[You have obtained additional information. 】
[The figure of the father of the infinite tree continues to watch you. 】
[The ancient **** of time gives you a test. 】
[Help mortals win the "gambling game of life". 】
[The Father of the Infinite Tree will give you rewards: Thaumaturgy - Breath of Time, a true message - Dark Dungeon. 】
"This is terrible. Without the [Box of Darkness], I can't understand the darkness even if I face fear."
Xia De, standing in the white mist, thought with some trouble.
In the shortcut method provided by Miss Aurora to obtain the [Light] spirit rune, you need to stimulate yourself with a relic with [Dark] power. Although Shade is now in the [Dark Realm], due to the protection of the magical power of Priest August, he does not feel the oppression of the dark power on himself at all, but his vision is seriously affected.
Therefore, using this key without the [Dark Box] around, even if fear would stimulate the formation of spiritual runes, it would not be possible for Shade to directly obtain the spiritual runes.
Take a step forward in the white mist and enter the ancient corridors of the Dreadfort. Before the surrounding light began to waver and the feeling of being watched appeared behind him, Shade ran forward:
"But before completing this mission, I still have to go out and see what is chasing me."
Because this time he started running away almost immediately after appearing, so when he saw the door engraved with the symbol of flipping coins, the look behind him that directly aroused the most primitive fear was still a long way away from him.
Shade turned sideways and slammed into the metal door. After entering, he immediately turned around and closed the door firmly.
At this moment, he leaned against the door and started breathing heavily. Mr. Riddle, who was sitting by the wall with his head hanging down, also raised his head at this time.
He was still wearing the dirty brown robe, his eyes were dull and he seemed a little confused. But he quickly recognized Shade and stood up holding on to the wall with a smile on his face:
"You finally came back...oh! Are you injured?"
"It doesn't matter, just let me drink some water."
Xia De shook his head, this is the meaning of the twenty minutes of extra rest time.
"Sometimes I even suspect that all the memories about you are hallucinations."
Mr. Riddle sighed softly.
"Then why don't you think it's an illusion now?"
After Shade drank the water, he put the water bottle into his pocket and wiped his mouth.
"When you appear, the reality of the world is stronger than at any time."
Mr. Riddle used a metaphor that Shade didn't understand. This was probably some kind of metaphor among the prophets.
Although the total meeting time between Shade and Mr. Riddle was only more than half an hour, they both felt like they were reunited with old friends after the meeting.
Compared with the last time Shade came here, Mr. Riddle's mental state was obviously much better this time, and his thinking logic was basically normal. He even remembered the "All Things Impermanence Card" that Shade mentioned when he left last time, so when Shade took out three cards from his pocket and explained his thoughts, Mr. Riddle was surprised and wanted to see these cards. :
"This is really interesting, the playing cards left by the ancient gods. Although they do not have extraordinary power, they can be passed down from the end of the ancient times. There must be a greater secret on them. Maybe among those who have temporarily disappeared, There are clues about these cards in my memories, but I can’t think of anything now.”
Having witnessed these three cards from Shade, Mr. Riddle will probably be able to conduct related research more smoothly after leaving the Dreadfort. The records of the Prophet's Association show that this gentleman actually found a playing card before his death, and that card is still preserved within the Prophet's Association.
The two did not chat for too long. After Mr. Riddle sat back down at the stone table, the thick darkness was temporarily dispelled by the light of a short candle lit on the other side of the table, and the **** in black robes appeared again. .
So far, ? has never revealed his true appearance when he appeared here. What Shade and Mr. Riddle saw was just the black robe, but because of this, Mr. Riddle, as an ordinary person, was qualified to gamble with God.
If it is really the true form of a saint or a god, even if it is just an "innocent creator" with "no power", Mr. Riddle will never be able to persist to the end of the gamble.
"I don't know what will happen after putting down these three cards. It's just speculation at the moment."
Shad, who had golden cracks on his body, stood behind Mr. Riddle and placed three cards on his right hand.
“Everything is impermanent, and everything has no fixed fate, so all we can do is bet on luck.”
Mr. Riddle said softly that this ancient prophet who lived in the Fifth Age, after getting rid of the mental instability caused by loneliness, showed reason and calmness that surprised Shade.
But think about it carefully, this gentleman has experienced so many adventures and is still alive to this day, and according to historical records, he still has more than twenty years to continue taking risks. Therefore, in addition to luck, there is obviously no shortage of courage and wisdom beyond ordinary people.
"Oh God~"
He called softly and took the [Impermanence and Balance] that Shade placed at the top in his hand. The **** and index finger of his right hand pinched the lower end of the card, showing the card face to the god, while also letting the card block his right eye:
"Can I use this card, gifted by an unknown person, to continue this bet?"
He chose to ask the gods directly, but after waiting for a long time, he did not get a response from the gods.
