The Whispering Verses Chapter 622: Itch spell


Chapter 622 Itching Curse

"The explosion of death will impact three channels at the same time."

When talking about this topic, the priest seemed a little worried:

"I am not a church ring sorcerer, so I cannot know the more specific situation. Judging from the current known situation, the local Natural Church believes that there may be problems in all three channels."

[Church of Nature and Evil Thoughts] is the first church among the Five Gods to preach locally. Currently, all the seals of the door at the foot of the mountain are carried out with the Church of Nature as the main body. Even the actual location of the Natural Church corresponds to the location of the door in the narrow room.

"There may be problems."

Xia De can't do anything about this kind of thing, but fortunately this is not his responsibility. The only thing he has to do in this city is to collect enough intelligence. After Luvia divines the information about the third chosen one, he can use the preliminary preparations to find the target in one fell swoop.

"The door on the top of the narrow room was suppressed by an ancient one, and the door on the mountainside was hidden by the Witch Emperors. The church also knows this information, but obviously it doesn't know as much as I do."

This is not because the church is incompetent or that Priest August is too powerful. Shade believes that this is simply because the level 0 relic on the priest's body that is suspected to be related to the "Primary Angel" is too powerful.

Before the food was served, Shade expressed his thoughts:

"Priest, I have also made some friends at Fort Midhill these days. After dinner, we will go to the House of the Blind. They are actually the local stronghold of the [Spiritual Order]."

"Spiritual Cult? You mean those who use blindfolds? It turns out that the House of the Blind is the stronghold of that sect!"

The priest said in surprise that he knew about the spiritual sect, but obviously did not connect the two.

"You can hand over your current information and the information you will master in the future to the [Spiritual Cultivation Order], and the order will definitely be able to find a way to inform the church."

"That's not bad but I'd better not show up."

Priest Augustus shook his head and took out his pipe from his pocket, but after thinking about it he put it back:

"I'll leave everything I know to you, and you can hand it over to the Spiritual Cult. After all, I am a priest of the Zhengshen Church, so I'd better not take the initiative to contact them. However, are you sure you know the senior leaders of the sect? ”

"Yes, I also met with the leader of the sect in the morning. When I rescued you, the nun from the eleventh ring also provided a lot of help."

Shad nodded, and the priest looked at him in surprise:

"You've only been here for a week, haven't you? Detective, you really have a lot of friends."

"Don't talk about this."

Xia De shook his head and ignored the topic, not wanting to involve the witch again because of the spiritual cult:

"Unknown-level relics are really dangerous."

He sighed softly. The priest wanted to speak, but the waiter came in again pushing the dining cart. After he left, the priest continued:

"In fact, even the least dangerous poet-level (level 5) relic can bring us a lot of trouble. Do you know the poet-level relic [Itching Curse]?"

"I don't know."

Xia De shook his head, looking very interested, so the priest said:

"This is a relic in the form of information, similar to a curse. Specifically, the cursed person's back will be very itchy, and once someone sees him reaching out to scratch the itch, he will also feel itchy, thereby transmitting the curse The curse continued to spread. In the later stage, as long as someone mentioned that they felt itchy on their back, or even wrote about it in a book, the curse would spread. ”

"Oh, that sounds really scary."

Xia De rubbed his back against the back of the chair without any trace. When the priest mentioned this, he subconsciously thought about whether he felt itchy on his back, and then he really felt itchy on his back.

"Such a bad curse, is it only at the poet level?"

"Yes, because the characteristic is just itching. And it's the kind of itch that can be relieved comfortably by just scratching it. Detective, what are you doing?"

Xia De, who was rubbing quietly on the back of the chair, shook his head:

"Nothing, so how to cure this curse? You can't endure the itching on your back for the rest of your life, right?"

"No, no need. Just find the first person affected by the relic, peel off the skin from his back, and use tanning to make leather, so that the information will be retained there. On a piece of human skin. Sadly, there are currently 193 known sources of the [Itching Curse], and this is still known to the church."

The priest shrugged:

"Even if the source cannot be found, as long as two-thirds of the people infected with the curse apply a special ointment regularly, the contagious properties of this relic will disappear, so the harm is really not great. Oh, Ring Warlock Generally, they have varying degrees of resistance to poet-level relics, so this curse is ineffective against high-level warlocks. Oh, and there is also a spell [Itching Curse] developed based on this relic. This mischievous spell is effective against all levels. Warlocks are ineffective, but people who learn this kind of spell are really boring."

Xia De, who still felt a little itchy on his back, vowed that he must ascend to the high level as soon as possible to prevent himself from encountering these not dangerous but extremely disturbing curses in this dangerous world.

The two agreed to meet again tomorrow. The priest would consider what thaumaturgy Shade's spiritual rune [True Death] could be associated with, and then take advantage of tonight to tell all the things he had learned about the hazama and the outbreak of death. write down. But the priests still have church work to do. These senior clergy who were summoned have already begun basic ritual training, so they will not be able to meet with Shade often at Fort Midhill.

However, it is now completely certain that the purpose of summoning the August priests to Fort Midhill is really for a large-scale magical ceremony.

When the priest took out his wallet to pay for this sumptuous dinner, Shade, who turned to look at the scenery outside the window, remembered another thing:

"Oh, priest, you owe the doctor three thousand pounds."

Priest August, who was counting out the tips, shook his hand and almost dropped the coins in his palm:

"Huh?"

He looked at the young detective opposite in surprise, as if hoping he could tell it was a joke.

Xia De reminded:

"This is the cost of opening the door. You know, although my friends can help for free, they can't let them pay for the tools in vain, right?"

"This is it."

The priest said tremblingly:

"It seems that I have to save some money recently."

Priest Augustus did not have much expenses except for studying as a ring warlock. He just habitually donated his money. The 3,000 pounds this time is not a small amount. It seems that the priest has already planned to consider selling potions on the local black market after returning to Tobesk.

"But where did the doctor get so much liquidity? Why did he get it himself? Normally, shouldn't four people get it?"

The priest thought about this matter again. Shade still remembered that others warned him that they must not tell the old man in front of him about their collective gambling:

"Doctors made a lot of money investing some time ago."

He said vaguely.

"What investment can make a doctor earn so much?"

The priest was very curious and put the tip under the cup. The two stood up from their chairs, and the waiter led them away.

"Related to a minor noble."

Xia De’s eyes wandered:

"And it's also related to foreigners. Does the Principality of Set know about it?"

"I know, it's not far from here."

The priest nodded:

“It turns out to be a multinational business.”

"It can be said that there are many foreigners. Specifically, it is related to some special wooden materials and inks. It is said that this business has a great influence."

"Doctors actually dare to get involved in this kind of thing? As far as I know, the risks of this kind of business are very high."

Going down the stairs, the priest took his pipe from his pocket.

"He has received inside information and believes that the probability of making a profit from this investment is more than 60%."

"This is very good. It seems that the doctor has indeed made a lot of money. Bill is really lucky this time."

The two of them walked out of the restaurant as they spoke, looking up at the sea of ​​​​stars above Mount Sikal almost at the same time.

On the outskirts of Fort Midhill, on the edge of the mountains, this sea of ​​stars is extremely dazzling and brilliant.

(Little Mia is running.)

Shad did not return to the city of Fort Midhill with the priest, but went directly into the mountains and returned to the ruined tower in the mountains. It was eight o'clock in the evening when I returned to the basement of my home through the basement of the ruined tower.

When we arrived on the first floor and saw the lights on in the foyer, we knew that Luvia, who was playing with the astrological equipment, had not left yet. And when Shade came to the second floor and caught the cat that rushed towards him excitedly, he saw the seventeen-year-old girl also there:

"Good evening, Luvia, good evening, Iluna."

Xia De said hello and saw two ladies sitting on the sofa playing chess. There are card games like Rhodes in this world, and of course there are board games, but they are relatively less popular.

"Good evening, Shade. Have you seen Priest Augustus?"

Luvia asked, staring at the chessboard. Shade took a look and found that he didn't understand this kind of chess at all, so he walked into the bedroom with the cat who was so excited that he wanted to jump up and rub his chin with his little head to change into the clothes he wore at home.

"I saw it. Priest Augustus seems to be in good condition, but Fort Midhill has a big problem. If it doesn't work well, it will be an accident no less than a 'sea repatriation'. I understand today Let’s take a look at the local folklore and legends. Those stories are very interesting. ”

"I thought you went to Fort Midhill to play Rhodes for a day. Don't those poker players like to play cards in other places?"

The girl with long brown hair asked. Now she is at a disadvantage on the chess board. Luvia is very good at playing chess:

"But why do you always encounter such dangerous things?"

"This is what I have always wondered."

Luvia said, picking up her white chess piece and kicking the largest soldier piece on Iluna's side out of the chessboard. The latter immediately covered her face:

"I lost again, Luvia. You didn't predict how I would play chess in advance, did you?"

"I won't do such boring things."

Luvia stood up and went to the kitchen to prepare tea. Priest August was safe, so Shade could have his hands free at Fort Midhill. Therefore, tonight the three of them are going to discuss the third candidate.
