The Whispering Verses Chapter 76: Dead end

"Sir... I actually know a very good psychiatrist. Do you want me to introduce him to you?"

Even though he was horrified, Shade still asked politely. The man in the burgundy formal suit opposite is most likely the [Mercury Blood] Ring Warlock that Miss Anat mentioned just now. Just when he heard the news, he turned around and was caught. His luck seemed to have really run out.

But there was no panic, Shade knew what he was going to do.

"No, I'm just looking for you, this book told me."

The man shook the small book in his hand towards Shade. The book was only the size of a palm. Small books of this size were usually used by people traveling for entertainment.

The cover of the book looks like crumpled leather, with nothing on it except the title and a sentence. Of course, Shade had never seen the language used in the book title and sentences, but he still interpreted it:

["The Puppet Operator's Script"]

[Perhaps people think they can control their destiny, but they don’t know that everything is already in their destiny. 】

"Do you need me to introduce you?"

The middle-aged man shook the book in his hand. He was still sitting at the stone table, at least ten steps away from Shade at the edge of the grape trellis, but Shade did not dare to escape at all:

"Our partner [Blood Spirit School] has not sent anyone here for the time being, but only sent the angelic relic [The Puppet Operator's Script] they found from the 'delivery room'. Of course, this is not a complete script, just a After being divided, the part of the script that can be used ten times is considered to be the Keeper level. It is said that it was written by a crazy puppeteer in the chaotic era of the Fourth Age, but the parts that people get are all blank. Under very harsh conditions, you can use your own blood to write content on the page and pay a price to affect reality. ”

He explained like a talker, looking at Shade with his eyes, and Shade looked at his blackened left arm.

The detective wanted to retreat, but the numbness in his scalp kept him from moving.

"Don't you believe it? Although the people from [Blood Spirit School] have not arrived yet, it is enough to have this. It is fate that is favoring [Mercury Blood], and our goal will definitely be achieved. Maybe you think that [Mercury Blood] will be achieved." The synthesis of blood is crazy, but with this, it's not unreal, it's very convenient for finding things."

This is consistent with Old John's information. The stingy shop owner's information is actually completely correct.

The man motioned for Shade to sit across from him, but Shade did not move:

"So, what does this have to do with me?"

He felt his head running wildly, thinking about ways to escape.

The man is still chattering, as if he has been preparing these words for a long time:

"Not long ago, the [statue of the old **** "Vampire Duke Loel"], one of the necessities for the synthesis of [Mercury Blood], was stolen. We tried to retrieve the statue through the pages of the script, but we did not expect that The bearer of the statue was too strong to be affected by the incomplete script, and Peter the Short Mouse died while searching.

So, I wanted to take a step back, find and punish the guy who discovered the statue, but in a rare case, when I wrote the ending of death for you, I actually failed to write it. ”

Xia De heard the woman in his heart laughing.

The man in a burgundy formal suit waved his blackened left arm to Shade:

"When I was about to finish writing that sentence, a drop of blood accidentally dripped from the wound on my finger during the writing process, changing the written words. [Relic] did not accept alterations, so the smeared area was automatically modified , I paid the price so that before midnight tonight, you would seem to be favored by the old **** of fate."

Among the five righteous gods, no one has "destiny" as their main priesthood. Therefore, what ring magicians usually refer to as "the gods of destiny" are old gods that have fallen.

The smile on his face became distorted, it was a kind of hatred that turned into hatred after a long period of hostility towards the enemy. Although Shade didn't even know the existence of this person a few minutes ago, the struggle between the two has lasted for several rounds:

"You are so lucky, young man, can you tell me how you made that drop of blood drip? The Silver Eyed Man asked me to be responsible for finding the lost statue. Do you know how much I paid for you? ?"

The man's voice gradually became deep and depressed, but Shade still didn't speak. He really didn't expect that someone would hate him so deeply.

"I have been looking for you tonight, through the eighth chance of this book, to increase the possibility of our meeting. But you are so lucky tonight, and I am very curious, why did you come to the banquet? Running around?"

Although the man in the burgundy suit has a distorted expression, his confused tone is not a disguise:

"I set up multiple locations for you and went to look for you, but you kept moving and even ran near the stables, making me almost fight with others. You really came to the banquet , instead of participating in the race?"

Xia De opened his mouth, not knowing how to answer. He couldn't explain this matter.

"While I'm here playing Rhodes, it should be your chance, right?"

I was panicked, but my tone remained calm. Escape seems impossible, but maybe you can use the spell [False Immortality] to pretend to be dead and get away with it.

"But there are too many people here. For the coming ceremony of [Lord of the Blood Feast], I cannot disturb the Zhengshen Church before the ceremony begins... Your luck is even so good that in When I almost caught you, I frequently encountered the ring warlock team of the Zhengshen Church. Young sir, do you know how much I paid for your good luck tonight?"

His tone suddenly became cold, he shook his sleeve to cover his blackened left arm, and looked at Shade with yellow eyes like a snake creature:

"Look, you came to see me after all. Luck is just luck after all, and what I have is power! Damn it, I must take a look at your heart in a while! Do you know how much I have paid for you? ”

This statement made Sha De feel a little numb.

The man placed the small book on the stone table, and then motioned for Shade to sit across from him.

Of course Shade didn't want to do this, but as the man's increasingly terrifying aura appeared, the blood-red chains seemed to be dancing behind him. The chain snaked like a snake, and the tingling feeling in his heart forced Shade to walk to another stone bench next to the stone table.

The man in the burgundy suit does not look like a human being, but instead gives him a violent and dangerous feeling like a wild animal. The current situation is almost a dead end.

"Still too weak..."

The oppressive atmosphere made him breathless, but there was no despair in his heart. He would never lose faith in survival until the last moment.

"Okay, sir, take out all the [relics] on your body. Take your time and don't act rashly."

After Shade sat down, the man said, and then took out the pen on his chest:

"There are two opportunities left to use the script. It's for you. I'm willing to waste one opportunity. But I won't pay the price and let you die directly. I want you to feel greater pain!"

He took off the pen cap and wrote on [The Puppet Operator's Script], reading the content while writing, as if he was reciting poetry:

"Oh, the person opposite,

Please disarm.

Disarm,

Throw away the power,

You,

There will be nothing left. ”
