The Whispering Verses Chapter 724: The ownership of wishes
Chapter 724 The ownership of wishes
"In this way, we have obtained two of the three books. Miss Olanode, the "Unknown Book of Sacrifice" that I just mentioned about the secrets of the sun has also been found, but it has been sealed. What does this mean?"
Xia De asked while sitting by the campfire.
"The previous manager of the library sealed the book, and the stone slab was placed in the center of a sacrificial table. There are five grooves around the sacrificial table, and five different items with solar power need to be placed in order to Remove the seal."
Miss Olanold said, pointing to the lit bonfire:
"This flame can be regarded as a kind of fire. This is the fire given to me by Teacher Feiliana. It contains the power of the sun, so it can protect us in the Valley of Death."
"There is also this, a relic [the body of a sunworm], which I borrowed from the club for heating. I heard it is extremely cold here."
Although it is an insect corpse, the item in Miss Samuel's hand looks like a so-called hot water bottle used by ordinary citizens.
"We are still short of three items."
Miss Olanode looked at Shade and said, Shade understood what she meant. Rather than preparing daily necessities for the witches, collecting essential materials or information is what he is most familiar with.
He's done it many times.
Although you can travel through time through the time key, you cannot carry any extraordinary items. But the experience of the cocktail party has shown that the items that must be carried in order to complete the task of the tree father are allowed to be taken to the past time.
[Relics cannot be carried under any circumstances. 】
A voice suddenly appeared in my ears.
"Understood."
But even if they are not relics, items with the power of the sun are not difficult to find. For example, the Holy Emblem of the Sun made by Iluna and can be used as a disposable sunlight gun. It is not a relic but an alchemical item, and it definitely meets the conditions.
"So there are still two pieces missing."
Xia De thought in his heart and promised:
"I will try to bring it when I come next time."
"There is no other way. We still have the qualification to make a wish to the great one. If I pull out my secret technique [Solar Ashes], it should also be regarded as an item related to the sun."
Miss Samuel, the witch of Zalas, said, but this situation should be avoided as much as possible.
"So, should I keep this book first, or sacrifice it to the [Grey-robed Sage]?"
Shad shook the slate in his hand again, and Miss Samuel shook her head:
"What you find, you decide for yourself, I will not participate."
Miss Olanold pursed her lips:
"Leave it to that **** now? I'm worried that other situations may arise if it is left in our hands."
"Yes, this is the safest way. But, what is the second wish?"
Xia De asked again, glancing at the red dragon girl sleeping in the ice coffin. All three of them felt that there was no need to use a second wish to revive Fiona Drago. After all, as long as she leaves the Valley of Death, there are plenty of ways to wake her up.
"Shad, come and make a wish. I remember that you have always wanted a way to enhance your perception of time."
The witch tilted her head and said to Shade, her face illuminated by the firelight.
This proposal is very attractive, and Shade is indeed pursuing the answer. But after hesitating for a moment, he still shook his head:
"The last wish must be for you to leave safely. In other words, the next wish is the last free wish. Miss Olanode, compared to me, you and Miss Feliana should Do you have more ideals and pursuits?”
Xia De’s highest pursuit is to become a god, but this [Grey-robed Sage] will definitely not be able to achieve this. To him, knowing the secrets of time in the Sixth Age is just a scenery on the road to divine sublimation. It is indeed important, but it is not the goal of life:
"Miss Olanold, this is not polite. This wish belongs to you. The wish of the guardian **** of the library will definitely help you."
He looked at Miss Olanold's face under the firelight:
"Go and make a wish."
【You are really generous. 】
The whispering sound coming from his ears was very gentle, and Shade asked in his heart:
"So, is it unexpected that I do this?"
[It is better to say that if you don’t do this, it will be unexpected. Stranger, you really haven’t changed much since you came to this world. Neither power nor money can change you. 】
"Thank you for the compliment, I think it's just because power and money are not enough."
"Xia De, you have to know that the opportunity to make a wish to God is not always available."
Miss Olanode said seriously. Her eyes are almost golden in color, and it seems that all high-level witches have such characteristics. Under the firelight, those clear eyes seemed to glow slightly, but Shade still thought that purple eyes were more beautiful.
"Yes, not all the time, but for me."
Xia De nodded his chest:
"About once a month."
As he spoke, he also laughed.
At the end of every time key, when the outsider achieves a certain goal, God will not hesitate to fulfill some small wishes. A key needs to be opened three times, with an interval of 7 days between each time, so it is indeed almost once a month.
"Shadow."
"Miss Olanode, I know that you think that my strength is very low, and you want to give me this opportunity so that I can lay a solid foundation in the low level."
He looked at the half-elf witch holding her legs with both hands, her face reddened by the firelight. Shade's eyes unconsciously looked at the pair of brown long lace-up women's cloth boots. As the bonfire swayed, shadows danced on the arms holding the legs and the uppers of the shoes.
This pair of boots really suits her leg shape:
"I traveled through different time and space, and under the witness of the tree father, I went to those eras that I had never heard of, not to gain power."
Although Shade gained power from the Time Key, he did not strive for it on his own initiative.
Both witches looked at him, Shade's expression was serious and serious:
"Time witnesses stories, and I want to witness time. What I really want to do is to understand the stories of the past, meet people I shouldn't have met, until I discover the truth of history and time at the end of time ."
He pointed to the bonfire in front of him, and the [Fire Plasticity] spell obtained by contacting the phoenix flame came into effect immediately. The surging flames gathered under the yellow moon and gradually turned into a giant tree of flames, with three tiny people standing under the giant tree.
Miss Olanold looked at the fire in a daze. It was an adventure 22 years ago, and it was her first encounter with Shade.
"Just like in the Forest of a Thousand Trees, although I came to you to seek help, what I ended up doing was to witness your success in meeting the great one in the trees. Miss Olanode."
He suddenly squeezed his palms, and the giant flame tree collapsed into normal flames again. The half-elf witch looked at him.
"This wish belongs to you. I don't have much time left, please stop trying to shirk it."
"I understand."
Miss Bryony O'Lanold sighed, with an expression of relief on her face:
"Then this opportunity to make a wish to God belongs to me. But I owe you a favor, and I will remember this."
Shade then smiled, stood up with his hands on the ground, and walked towards the shrine on the pile of old books with the stone slab in hand.
The witch of Zarath carefully moved from the side of the bonfire to Miss Oranold:
"He does not belong to this time."
The voice was very soft, and it used the power of the witch, so Shade couldn't hear it.
"I know, you want to persuade me"
"What I want to say is that if you need me to avoid you, I can leave temporarily."
Miss Olanold glanced at her companions on this adventure, snorted and said nothing. The witch wearing round glasses smiled and said:
"The private lives of witches are mostly chaotic. I know that you and your teacher are very clean. But with your age, thirteenth level, and normal personality and aesthetics, I don't believe that you have never slept with those young and cute people. Girl, after all, we had no other choice before. But this time is different. Destiny can give you two opportunities to meet, but will there be a third time? I promise to help you keep the secret here in exchange for learning about his relationship with me. The secret of time, but I want to advise you as a friend."
She glanced at Shade, who was facing away from the two of them and was about to open the small door of the shrine:
“.The poets of the Fourth Age said——
If you are in the most beautiful wilderness,
Encounter the scattered dandelions;
Please grab it,
Don't let time and wind take it away. ”
She quoted a small poem, and Shade on the other side had already opened the small door of the shrine.
Immediately, a strong smell of tobacco almost rushed out from it, choking the unprepared Shade, squinting his eyes and coughing, and retreated.
When the thick smoke dissipated, the old man in gray robe holding a staff was already sitting on the pile of books:
“I really don’t know how to appreciate it. This is the extinct Gerati tobacco.”
The **** complained about Shade's "no taste", and Shade, who was covering his mouth and coughing, had already noticed golden scars on his palms. The cracks spread before his eyes, and the process looked particularly terrifying:
"Hello God."
He heard the two witches behind him stand up and stand not far behind him.
"Hello, time traveler, may the moon and time bless you."
The old man in gray robe wearing a pointed hat said with a smile. He looked around and seemed to be in a good mood. His tone was very brisk:
"Look, you have found the second book, but the unfortunate girl has fallen asleep. Is there any interesting story that happened here? Do you want to wake her up with a second wish? I can still do such a small thing ”
Xia De shook his head slightly:
"We will use mortal means to awaken it later. The sage in gray robes, the guardian of the library, this is the "Yager Scroll"."
He respectfully handed over the slate in his hand. The **** in front of him turned serious, threw his pipe into the void, and then reached out to take the slate. After caressing the surface of the stone slab with his old palm, he squinted and looked at the words on it:
"From the first year of the First Era to the present. I really hope this line will never change."
? He inserted the slate into the air, and a large transparent bookshelf appeared next to him. Between those standing books, there is just enough space to accommodate this stone slab:
"It's even better than I thought. So, what do you want to achieve?"
