The Whispering Verses Chapter 781: The Bloody Bride
He turned around and wanted to walk in the direction of the Natural Church, but suddenly stopped and looked at Shade again.
Xia De raised his left hand, holding a red butterfly pendant:
"I know I can't beat you now, but you must know one thing - bringing the dead back to life requires a price. I know two girls, even though the gods blessed them, they still paid a heavy price , to gain a life beyond what they originally deserved. Do you know the price? Mr. Barton, what price are you prepared to pay?
"Any price, pay everything."
He paused and looked at Shade:
"Mr. Watson, in half an hour, the power of real death will hit the narrow room again, triggering the third major earthquake in Fort Midhill. This will also be the last major earthquake. At that time, I will guide All the undead in Hajian City will attack the Natural Church; I will guide all the undead in Hajian Sikal Mountain to attack the mountainside and the top of the mountain. At least eight figures of souls will launch the final attack on the three seals, even if the church stops them. Come down, I will also let the remaining undead merge into the final death aggregate. This is the decisive battle.
No matter which one I am, one of me will eventually be able to pass through one of the passages, enter real death, and bring back my true love. ”
"Why are you telling me this?"
"I hope you can get out of here."
Xia De covered his right shoulder and shook his head. His arm was really broken:
"The church will start the ceremony in advance. The advance of the ceremony will make the seal effect weaker and will not be effective for three years. But at least, after the ceremony is successful, most of the souls in the room can fall into coma again."
"Then let's see who is faster, the church or me."
The deformed middle-aged man walked into the fog alone, and his figure gradually disappeared.
“It’s this troublesome race against time situation again.”
Shad walked out of the ruins of the store, took back the [Night Watch], and picked up the kerosene lamp that fell on the ground. For the hand with multiple fractures, I could only suppress the pain with a little treatment with a potion prepared in advance, and then walked along the street to the natural church.
The battle around the Natural Church is not over yet. Relying on a high degree of mobility, the bride, riding on a crimson mount and holding a man's head, is engaged in guerrilla combat with two high-level warlocks from the church.
The two ring magicians belonging to the Church of Creation and the Church of Peace cannot leave the church too far away, so the woman on horseback can temporarily escape from the battle by staying away from the church. But she did not leave. Instead, after recovering a little, she started harassing her again.
Sooner or later, this approach will give the church's ring magicians an opportunity, but before the church can fight back, the woman has noticed Shade limping from the fog, his right arm hanging down, looking extremely embarrassed. .
Tightening the reins, the crimson horse raised its front hooves in the air. The woman in the wedding dress waved the sickle in her hand and rushed towards Shade from above.
Xia De raised his eyes and looked at her:
"Do you think I'm easy to bully like this?"
People in the church also noticed Shade, who was wearing a black coat and a mask. Although they didn't know who he was, they didn't want to see him die under a scythe.
The two high-level magicians in the sky have already flown in, and Iluna, who was standing at the door of the church, also ran over with a small group of magicians.
Shad stopped and watched the woman on horseback getting closer and closer. While the latter swept towards him with a sickle, Shade's body dispersed into a group of red butterflies, allowing the sickle to sweep through the group of red butterflies.
Because the horse was rushing down too fast, after touching the ground, it slid forward for a certain distance before stopping. Shade, holding the red butterfly pendant in his hand, appeared behind the horse.
He gently turned sideways to avoid the horse's hooves that kicked back, raised his hand and made a clang, holding the pitch-black sickle. After seeing Joey Barton's power, Shade actually felt that the power of the scythe was so weak.
He was on the side of the horse, so he could clearly see the wedding ring on the finger of the woman in wedding dress holding the sickle.
The sickle shook off Shade's sword and swept toward Shade's neck again. Shade thrust forward with his left hand, accurately hitting the woman's wrist, and then dodged backwards, avoiding the man's head. Black clouds were sprayed out, and they continued to retreat backwards.
With the sound of horse hooves, the blood-stained bride turned the horse's head, and the undead holding the sickle high appeared in front of Shade again.
This time, Shade also dodged the sickle sideways, and even used [Night Watch] to chop the horse on the body at the moment the two came into contact.
Women are indeed powerful as the last nail, but unfortunately they have been imprisoned by the church for too long, and their strength has been seriously lost. Moreover, she is not good at using a special weapon like a sickle at all, while Shade can barely call himself a "sword master".
The two weapons exchanged blows several times in the fog. Although Shade could only use his sword with his left hand, he caused wounds on the bride and mount one after another.
After a brief exchange, everyone from the church has arrived. Iluna threw the sunshine gun directly in this direction, and the horse carried the woman and flew into the sky in the thick fog.
But on the horse’s hoofs, Shade’s [Sin Chain] was wrapped around him at some point. Even if Shade was not injured, he could not pull the horse down. He was not the strong man in the story. But the [Sin Chain]'s effect of imprisoning mobility still exerted some power.
The horse in the air suddenly stopped for a moment, and the golden thunder spear that followed directly penetrated the woman's heart.
The [Sin Chain] relaxed, the high-level warlocks fell down, and Iluna also came over with the team around her.
The horse slowly dropped to the ground carrying the woman, and then slowly lay down, making an unclear neighing sound. Gray smoke continued to fly upward from the woman's body, but she just caressed the head in her arms.
"What's their story?"
Xia De asked, not intending to stay away from the church ring magicians.
A middle-aged man with a twelve-ring warlock holding a long staff in his hand and a white dove standing on his shoulder said in a local accent:
"This is the undead Lady Maria three hundred years ago. Her husband was a well-known knight. On the night of their wedding, the knight was summoned by the lord and went to the front line. Lady Maria finally waited What comes is the knight’s head and the knight’s horse that the lord paid a ransom for.”
He did not continue, and a group of people watched quietly as the last nail disappeared into the narrow space.
"Oops, we haven't received the signal to kill her yet."
Eluna said with some distress, her eyes secretly glanced at Shade who was wearing a mask:
"Killing her in advance may cause early changes in Hazama."
Of course she knew who the person in front of her was. Even if Shade didn't take [Night Watch], she could guess that the strange person who appeared here at this time must be Shade.
"Don't worry about that, I know something."
Xia De said, everyone looked at him, and the long stick behind him really attracted attention.
I coughed hard to show that I had suffered internal injuries and there was congestion in my lungs. Then he inserted the sword into the ground and took out a letter with his trembling left hand:
"I'm here to deliver a letter. Can you also help me heal my injuries?"
He pointed to his drooping left arm.
"This one."
The twelve-ring warlock of the Peace Church hesitated:
"Sword Master, I wonder what organization you belong to?"
They all just saw the scene where Shade relied on his sword skills to fight against the blood-stained bride despite being at a disadvantage. The extraordinary system of this era prefers to use so-called "conjurations", and there are not many ring warlocks who are good at using cold weapons. Therefore, they did not associate Shad with the Godcaller.
After all, the "God Caller" is characterized by its complex, changeable, and brilliant moonlight series of thaumaturgy.
"I am a lone traveler from the New World, with the goal of hunting demons. I heard that there is a Balrog in Midhill Fort. I came here last month, but the Balrog was not found. Instead, I encountered what happened here. ."
He handed the letter out, and the ring wizard of the Peace Church took it and introduced his name. He was Newman Landau.
"I think you need help, and I need help too."
Xia De covered his right shoulder:
"I just drank some pain-relieving potion, but the effect is almost gone. There should be a doctor in the Church of Nature who can treat it, right?"
Mr. Landau, who had a dove on his shoulder, nodded, opened the letter and took a look at it. After confirming that there was nothing wrong with the letter, he glanced at Iluna.
Eluna nodded, stepped forward and extended her hand to Shade:
"Well, this witcher, you also know the current situation. The church will not allow suspicious people to enter the narrow church. But Mi Ya has gained our friendship, so after a small test , you can follow us.”
Shad held Iluna's hand, and then found that the seventeen-year-old girl was trying her best to hold back her laughter.
A brass ring appeared behind her. As the life ring rotated, in the dazzling golden color, the life ring transformed into the dark golden scale.
The scales, symbolizing the power of the ancient gods, appeared and immediately dispersed the surrounding fog. Iluna held back her laughter and pretended to be serious and asked:
"Good or evil?"
Time seems to have returned to the midsummer night, which was the time when Shade and Iluna gained further trust in each other. Shade misses that time very much, and it can be seen that so does Iluna who is so close.
Shad didn't have to answer this question, because the balance behind Iluna tilted almost overwhelmingly to the left. It seemed that in three months, the good and evil of the outsider had not changed at all, and he was quite content with this.
After all, apart from trying to illegally possess someone else's cat, he really didn't do anything bad.
"Very good, sir, it seems you are a good person, so order, chaos?"
The balance returned to balance, and then in the dark golden light, it fell to the left again as if being pressed by fingers. Shade even thought that if it went any faster, the entire scale would tip over completely.
