The Whispering Verses Chapter 784: The fourth candidate for death

At the same time that the top of the mountain received the information, the witches on the mountainside also learned that the sealing ceremony would start early.

"A powerful ring warlock with a sword?"

The witches did not choose to go inside the mountain to guard the seal, but waited on the cliff where the entrance to the passage was. Miss Aurora held the roll of parchment and looked at Granny Cassandra aside in surprise:

"This won't be"

"It should be."

The old witch sat by the fire, with Sister Devlin on the other side. The burning flame is the original fire. As long as this bonfire exists, the abnormalities in the narrow room cannot affect them.

The followers of the witch and the nuns of the spiritual cult are currently scattered around, preparing for the next round of undead impact. Sister Devlin suddenly looked up to the sky, and the two great witches also frowned and looked upward.

The huge black shadow above the thick fog could be vaguely seen becoming more and more clear, and then they saw that it was a Titan-like skull made of densely packed dead souls, looking at them.

Thousands of wailing souls were trembling irregularly. As the skeletons became clearer little by little, their terrifying expressions were reflected more and more clearly in everyone's eyes. No matter how courageous you are, you can't look directly at this terrible scene, but the two witches don't care at all.

The skeleton's brow is vaguely visible, embedded with a physical human being. Miss Aurora squinted her eyes to observe, and then snorted from her beautiful nose:

"Joy Barton. It's so cliche. Do you think the accumulation of quantity can defeat quality?"

She raised her hands and clapped them twice:

"Girls, get ready."

She raised her right hand high and snapped her fingers, twelve golden light **** spinning around her head; Granny Cassandra picked up the crutches on the ground and stood up, a huge and strange shadow trembled under her feet; Dev Sister Lin reached into the bonfire in front of her and pulled out the lime sword.

Standing up, she grabbed the small scythe as silver cold debris floated in the air. If you look closely. The look of this scythe is exactly the same as when Joey Barton used the "Death Scythe", the huge shadow behind him swung the weapon.

The nun flicked her right hand in the air, and the lime shell on the surface of the angelic relic [Ashes] peeled off. As cracks appeared on the surface of the body and clothes, the afterglow of the first fire flickered on the two weapons.

The battle on the mountainside broke out earlier than at the top and foot of the mountain. Perhaps in Joey Barton's opinion, the witches are easier to deal with than the Orthodox Church. He is only a first-level warlock, not even a core member of the "Truth Society". Naturally, he does not know what the [Witch Council] represents, let alone what a twelfth-level witch who doubles as a twelve-level warlock can do when fighting without scruples. means nothing.

In the natural church at the foot of Hazama Mountain, Shade is still carefully exchanging information with Iluna; on the cliff on the mountainside of Hazama Mountain, the witch who has inherited the power of the Fifth Age and the nun who guards the original fire join forces. Confronting Joey Barton who appears; with the rumbling sounds around the large crack on the top of Hazama Mountain, the ancient souls hidden in the mountain are awakening under the influence of Hazama.

The heavy fog filled the air, like an illusory curtain about to open. Shade by the campfire stared at the flames in front of him, and for some reason, he thought of the fourth death candidate mentioned by Luvia.

He originally thought that the candidate whose identity was not yet known was a vampire, and Armand Bernhard came to Fort Midhill to help the other party obtain the identity of the chosen one. But now that I think about it, maybe the vampires' grand plan really has nothing to do with the Chosen One and Hazama. But even so, the fourth candidate, who has not yet appeared, may appear in this final battle.

"The fourth-ranked candidate has almost nothing to do with the description of the poem, so the power of the ancient **** inherited is almost undetectable. But what is certain is that he or she must also have some of the same characteristics as the first-ranked Qiao Similar to E. Barton. Could it be the eyes that see through death?"

If Luvia appeared at Fort Midhill, Shade even believed that she might be the fourth candidate. Those purple eyes definitely have the power to see through death. But judging from the current situation, Luvia is obviously not

"Then who is it? Is the other party already involved in this matter? Does he know the content of the ritual? Before the ritual begins, a person who has been resurrected needs to be killed."

Subconsciously, he turned to look at Iluna. The seventeen-year-old girl also looked at Shade, and even winked at her playfully.

Under the light of the bonfire, Shade instantly saw her left eye turn bright gold. This is not Iluna's original eye. Her real left eye has been sacrificed during the Balance of the Chosen Ritual. Her current left eye was a gift given by Shade with the power of divinity when he "burned divinity and transformed into a god" for the first and last time.

This eye is very beautiful. Because it is a divine creation, it has many complex functions. And because that eye was supposed to be sacrificed to the ancient god, the replacement eye was actually able to exert the power of [balance] better than Iluna's own real right eye. Sometimes Shade even felt that maybe one day, Iluna would be able to directly see the traces that he could see using [Echo of Blood] without using spells and thaumaturgy.

Thinking of this, Shade frowned:

"The result of Luvia's divination with coins at that time was that by the time Iluna arrived in Fort Midhill City, there would be at least four candidates for the election in this city. Well, there will be such a thing"

He looked at Iluna. Although the seventeen-year-old girl was not as beautiful as the witches, she was still quite beautiful among non-witches. And because of her youth, she has a special sense of youthfulness that Miss Carina and Miss Aurora don't have.

Outlander still remembers the morning when he first met Iluna. He had just arrived in this world a few days ago and was going to "Good Peter's Pet" in Purple Iris Lane, which is very close to Saint Teresa Square. Store" to pick up Xiao Mia and bumped into Iluna at the door of the store.

At that moment, he seemed to feel that all the light around him dimmed, and only a beam of light shone on Iluna. However, neither Darkness nor Joey Barton, the first candidate for the Chosen I met after that, had this strange feeling.

"Is there something weird on my face?"

Valley?

Seeing that Shade kept staring at her, Iluna asked a little embarrassedly. Shade shook his head and continued to stare at the flames in front of him:

"I thought of some strange things, just guessing. No matter what, let's solve Joey Barton's problem first."

Twenty minutes of rest time is enough for Shade to recover his physical strength and spirit by the campfire. When he stood up again, he felt as if there was endless strength in his body.

I wanted to take a look around the church while I still had time. Just as he was thinking about how to convince the high-level warlocks in the church to allow him to go to the basement to take a look, he heard a dull but clear sound of bells coming from deep in the white mist outside the church.

Everyone put down their work and listened carefully. It was nine consecutive bells. After the bell rang, all the ritual supplies and ritual traces prepared for the sealing ceremony inside the church shone with a golden glow. The holy emblem of the God of Nature, two overlapping leaves, hung on the wall at the end of the main chapel, spreading miraculous elements into the church, while outside the church, the white mist became restless.

"Here we go"

Eluna said softly.

Shad frowned and looked at the door of the church, his keen senses allowing him to sense further changes in the narrow space. The whisper element almost overwhelms the miraculous element even within the church. And further away, he heard a sound like the roar of an ancient evil beast, and the ground rumbled and vibrated, indicating that something was coming.

In the real Fort Midhill area, a major earthquake that had been notified in advance in the newspaper came as scheduled. With the rumble of Mount Sikal as if it was about to collapse, Midhill Fort shrouded in white mist endured the devastation from the mighty force of nature. Huge boulders collapsed on the top of the realistic Mount Sikal, black smoke billowed from the mountain pass lake, the lake was boiling, and the extinct volcano was being reactivated.

Ruff Lane, Home of the Blind.

Sister Michelle stood in front of the second-floor window, holding on to the window frame and feeling the vibrations of the building itself. There were many people standing behind her. After Shade left, many ring warlocks came to seek help. Sister Michelle knew everyone's concerns, and she shared them. Sister Devlin had predicted what was going to happen, and she knew better than anyone how terrible the night ahead would be:

"This extinct volcano is finally going to erupt."

Santa Carla Avenue, Cassandra Auction House.

Miss Rita Swift, the young apprentice of the old witch, comforted the staff who had not left the auction house in the foyer on the first floor, and organized the ring warlocks left behind by the witch to prepare for the undead that might appear next. The violent earthquake made everyone look bad. At this time, three strange figures actually appeared outside the door of the auction house. They were three middle-aged men with pale faces, and one was holding a thorn with a ruby ​​embedded in it. Scepter, one wears six gemstone rings of different colors, and the other holds a pair of black and white guns. They all look like nobles:

"Excuse me, Miss Grace White, are Miss Helen Black here? Here are their invitations."

The slums in the south of the city, spider tail alley.

The flower seller, who had been sold out by Shade at once, huddled together with her parents, brothers and sisters in a dilapidated and leaky house, shivering in the earthquake with her eyes closed. There was a howling wind outside the door, and something huge was moving slowly deep in the white mist, leaving a huge black shadow on the window.

This is the Fort Midhill slum, where the propertyless poor living in this city live. No one can help them tonight except themselves. A sudden knock on the door sounded outside the leaky door. The middle-aged man with a slovenly beard and not tall, holding the only kitchen knife in the house, stopped in front of the family:

"Don't be afraid, I will protect you, Mary, Jenny, Dennis and little Harry."

Sikal Mountain, dense forest at the foot of the mountain.

The Delrayon Royal Army stationed in the Sikar Mountain area has found the positions that each team needs to guard in the mountains and forests. The fifty-man team led by Captain Rades is building fortifications and is responsible for Protect a silver stake erected in the forest. The silver stake was driven into the soil like a nail, and the complex and detailed patterns on its surface made the young corporals wonder about its value.

Captain Rades wore a cold-proof cloak and stepped on his leather boots, looking at the foggy forest at night, and then looked down at the rotting corpse on the ground with its head blown off.

He held the amulet sent by Sha De in his hand. Even a sudden earthquake could not disturb the middle-aged man's thoughts:

"I always feel that something incredible will happen tonight. Will the dead be resurrected? It turns out that the story is not a lie, there really is the legendary magic."

Five Gods Church.

The earthquake did not interfere with the ceremony that had been planned for a year. The team of ring warlocks who stayed in the real world were all dispatched and entered the city to eliminate the undead that had become powerful again. Inside the church, as old priests summoned from all over the Old World and local Earth Circle Warlocks participated in the prayers in the splendid main hall of the church, wearing uniform white robes, five golden light pillars broke through the white mist from the church, Stretching high into the sky, the holy emblems representing the five righteous gods appeared under the stars in the thick fog at night.

A golden glow enveloped the entire city, making Mount Sikal in the real world seem to be illuminated by the city below. The sealing ceremony "The Trace of the Holy Tree" has officially begun.

In the natural church in the narrow room, the ordinary clergy who were protected into the narrow room were praying quietly around the bonfire in the center of the main chapel. The hurried ring magicians were holding spellcasting materials and their own relics. In front of the door and window, I watched the white mist that was constantly being stirred.

Hundreds of brass life rings appeared together, but the steam mist did not affect the vision too much. No one spoke, everyone was waiting quietly.

The main part of the sealing ceremony is in reality, and the narrow church does not require many additional ritual steps. What they have to do is to resist the undead's attack on the Door of Death before the ceremony is officially completed.

The final battle is about to begin.
