The Whispering Verses Chapter 665: Lost Moon
Chapter 665 Lost in the Moon
The sword of the demon hunter hidden in the Sikal Mountain originally belonged to the previous owner of the [Demon Hunting Seal] in Shad's hands, who was the ophthalmologist's ancestor in the long past.
As for why the high-level warlock didn't put the two relics together, this was not clearly written on the parchment Shade got from the ophthalmologist Mr. Alfred. The parchment merely records the location of the sword, as well as the means of concealment and defense to prevent it from being taken away by others.
Although that was eight hundred years ago, it was arranged by a high-level warlock after all, so Shade believed that the possibility of the sword being taken away was very low. But the world has changed, and even Sikar Mountain itself has changed a lot in eight hundred years.
So, even with the location determined by dusk sunlight and the detailed map of Sikal Mountain, Shade still couldn't guarantee that he would be able to find it.
We set off from Hongshui Camp at almost five o'clock in the afternoon, followed the Fengqi Trail all the way down the mountain, and then got into the forest. It took a few minutes to deal with the evil spirit that appeared out of nowhere, and then unfortunately, we encountered a black bear with one eye blind that was looking for food in the mountains.
Shad didn't intend to kill it, but it attacked the stranger very brutally, and then its head was cut off by the moonlight.
However, Shade did not waste the body of the bear that was raising autumn fat. Instead, he turned its body into a toy and carried it with him, thinking whether it would be sold to local businessmen or brought to Tobesk. Restaurants are OK.
The hazy mist appeared out of nowhere at dusk. Although it was not as good as the avalanche-like white mist that Shade encountered in the mountains last time, it still brought the evil spirits floating out of the narrow room.
This made Shade's sword-hunting plan more difficult, but fortunately before the sun set, he successfully found the stream described by the ring warlock eight hundred years ago, and with the cooperation of the compass, he continued Head due east.
Although he did not find the "huge cedar" mentioned on the parchment - it had been turned into a hunter's cabin, he then found the "black wood forest" mentioned on the parchment under the stars. . The so-called "black wood" is not a certain species of tree, but a tree that turns black due to geological conditions and soil environment.
Shad guessed that this was a special tree growth environment caused by the influence of volcanoes and narrow rooms. As long as the problem of narrow rooms is not resolved, this "blackwood forest" will always exist.
Walking around in the mountains, the sun completely disappeared into the sky without even realizing it. But the arrival of night did not make Shade panic and frightened. On the contrary, walking in the mountains and forests, bathing in the moonlight in the sky, made him feel that his condition was getting better and better. Even the feeling at this moment was warmer than before. After a bath, it’s not bad to lie on the bed with an interesting storybook and the cat in your arms.
[Weird metaphor. 】
The road in the forest was not easy to walk, but when Shade once again stretched out his hand to push aside the grass, his eyes suddenly became clear. This is a cliff standing on the mountainside. There is no grass on the cliff, but it is completely illuminated by the starry sky and moonlight.
He found the right place, this cliff.
"The moon"
When he came to the cliff on the mountainside, Shade looked up at the bright stars above his head and the three moons. Looking up at the moon from the cliff in the mountain, the sea of stars is so close to the top of the head. This picture-like scene cannot be seen in the city.
Having found the destination, Xia De felt a little more relaxed. He looked up at the moon and remembered what Luvia had said. The ancient stargazers eventually fell into madness because of their excessive worship and fascination with the moon, so that even their bodies were transformed into piles of flesh and blood, and they could only worship crazily. Moon monster.
"But the moon is so sacred, how can it make people crazy?"
Squinting at the moon in the starry sky, Shade even felt that the moon was getting closer and closer to him with every breath. In a daze, he seemed to be standing on the field ridge of the huge wilderness in his dream again, looking at the huge moon disk above his head.
The energy gradually faded. The yellow and red moons remained unchanged, but the silver moon seemed to be getting closer and closer to him on the edge of the cliff.
In a daze, Shade stretched out his right hand, wanting to touch the silver moon that was almost close at hand.
But a woman's hand grabbed Shade's arm from behind, preventing him from truly "touching" the sky.
"you"
Xia De suddenly woke up from that strange state.
[Not me. 】
That arm is not transparent. Under the woman's fair right hand is the sleeve of a black silk nun's robe.
"Oh, I just"
Shad turned around with a heavy breath and saw Sister Devlin.
Seeing that Shade had returned to normal, the nun retracted her hand, holding her two hands together and hanging naturally in front of her body. Under the starry sky, her silver eyepatch with intricate and detailed patterns looked even more magical than before.
Behind Sister Devlin, two teams of "blind nuns" wearing the same attire and eye patches lined up on both sides. Although their heights and hair colors were different, they all maintained the same standing posture.
Obviously everyone was wearing blindfolds, but Shade still felt as if he was being seen by more than twenty pairs of eyes. He was a little embarrassed, but also very curious:
"Good evening, Sister Devlin, you are going."
"Go to the lake at the top of Sikal Mountain to hold a ceremony and observe the current situation in the narrow room."
The nun said softly, moving her head slightly from bottom to top, "observing" Shade:
"Mr. Hamilton, do you know what just happened?"
"I looked at the starry sky and was in a daze"
I wanted to say "a few minutes", but suddenly realized that it was already past eight o'clock in the evening. He actually stood on the cliff for more than an hour without noticing at all.
This is almost impossible for Shad, who possesses the [Time and Space] Spirit Rune and Thaumatology-Time Perception.
"Why didn't you remind me?"
[Why do you need to remind me? This is not too dangerous for you. 】
The wind carried "her" voice to my ears.
"Although you are illuminated by the silver moon, you must be cautious when facing it and don't be fooled by the moon's appearance."
The nun reminded.
"It's the first time this kind of thing has happened. Yes, something was wrong just now."
Xia De patted his head:
"It's hard to imagine what would happen if we really touched the moon. Oh, Sister Devlin, how did you find me?"
This mountainside cliff is located deep in the mountain, and any road up the mountain is very far away from here.
"My eyes 'saw' the strange moonlight here, so I found you."
She said softly.
"I understand."
Shad still felt a little dizzy and didn't understand what happened just now, but being interrupted by Sister Devlin from touching the moon was definitely a good thing.
"If you want to get closer to the moon, we can guard you. Do you want to go up the mountain with us? The best place to watch the moon in this area is by the lake on the top of the mountain."
Xia De thought for a while and shook his head:
"Thank you for your kindness, but I have other things to do."
Using the thaumaturgy [Silent Moonlight] [Cyndia's Silver Moon Gift], while the moon above his head seemed to cast a beam of light to envelope him, he pressed his radiant fingers against his temples:
"I have other things to do in the mountains, so I won't go up the mountains with you this time. Thank you for your kindness, Sister Devlin."
"You're welcome."
The nun nodded slightly, her voice harmonious with the silent forest at night:
"In addition, you need to be careful when moving in the Sikal Mountains at night. Not only the evil spirits have become more powerful, but also the vampires in the city have often appeared in the mountains recently."
"Vampire?"
Shad thought of Bernhardt and his nephew:
"Aren't the local vampires always very peaceful? Do they want to get involved in the affairs of the chosen ones, or do they also want to contribute to Hazama's problems?"
"No, in fact we don't know what those people are doing. But there is evidence that the vampires who originally lived here have three sage-level relics in their hands. There is reason to believe that they came from Obtained from other clans."
"Oh? Three pieces of sage level?"
Shad was a little surprised. When he first came to this world, he had already caused a storm in Tobesk for a sage-level [God's Gift Box].
"Sage level-blood crown, sage level-vampire ring, sage level-blood thorn scepter.
The first item represents the power of the vampire clan. Any vampire who obtains it will unconditionally increase his level by 3 levels, but cannot achieve breakthroughs in the middle and high levels, and the holder will be afraid of the sun.
The second item is the race transformation ring. If held by a non-vampire, it will be regarded as a vampire. If held by a vampire, it will greatly enhance the unique thaumaturgy of all races, such as the transformation into a swarm of bats. But the holder will be afraid of silverware.
The third weapon is a powerful weapon. The holder's magic and magic are comprehensively enhanced, and the enhancement related to blood is even more obvious. However, the holder will lose his immortality and quick recovery ability, and when using it, he will feel himself being penetrated by thorns.
People's traditional superstition believes that vampires are afraid of sunlight and silverware, but this is actually because of the first two relics. ”
The nun introduced.
"What are the local vampires going to do? Wait, the vampire ring."
Xia De raised his eyebrows:
"Sister, the activation spell of the ring you mentioned is not [the replacement of flesh and blood, the sublimation of flesh and blood soul], right?"
