The Whispering Verses Chapter 1069: “The Book of Fools” and [The Source of Chaos]


After noticing Sir's right hand behind his back and making the agreed movements, Shade, who was walking behind the two of them, coughed suddenly and said to Mr. Booker:

"Mr. Booker, what do you think this is?"

His left hand touched the "Psychic Crystal Ring" on his hand. When Mr. Booker turned his head, his eyes looked directly into Mr. Booker's eyes. Under the strong mental shock, the fat and half-bald man passed out directly, but after falling to the ground, his whole body twitched, then he closed his eyes and stood strangely in a posture that seemed to be controlled by silk threads. got up.

"He has indeed been controlled by the Book of Fools."

Sir Prisha said, then nodded to Shade:

"Mr. Hamilton, according to the plan, I will stop him while you go find the book."

Because Shade said in advance that he had a special ability to find objects, Shade conducted the search.

"No problem, but don't you need my help here?"

Xia De asked. At this time, the five-ring life ring behind Sir Prisha had appeared.

At the same time that the core spirit rune [finger] showed its aura, a very disgusting huge seven-fingered palm appeared in the void, the skin looked like it had been soaked in water.

This seems to be an ability to summon the undead. When combined with the core spirit runes, it becomes even more powerful.

"Detective, it would be the greatest help to me if you find that book as soon as possible."

As he spoke, Sir Prisha had already faced Mr. Booker, whose whole body was twitching, and his body was being opened layer by layer like a page of paper.

Shad nodded and left the basement along the stairs. He had just confirmed that the book was not in the basement.

Seeing that Xia De had left, the middle-aged noble from the southern country took out a small pocket book and threw it to the life ring behind him.

"Obviously, relic-level books are very resistant to my [Library Search]."

Shad, who returned to the first floor of the library, tried to cast a spell, but nothing happened. This is not that nothing happened without results, but that there is very obvious resistance, which means that the relic is indeed here.

"Can you find the source of resistance?"

Xia De asked in his heart.

[Only with you as the center of the circle, you can sense the approximate range of where the resistance is. 】

So Shade walked a few more places in the library and cast spells continuously to try to call the book. "She" recorded the possible sources of resistance, and finally determined the overlapping range in the southwest corner of the library, which was the reception room where Mr. Booker received them just now.

Once the approximate location is determined, there is no need to use [Library Search] to search for relics. Shade reached out and touched every object that might hide the relic, sensing the traces of the "Whisper" element at close range.

Judging from the current state of Mr. Booker, the relic is close to a semi-out of control state. For relics in this state, the whisper element will be more obvious.

So just as Shade thought, it didn't take much effort for him to detect traces of elements near the chair where Mr. Booker was sitting just now. After careful inspection, he cut open the soft lining of the chair's backrest and took out the book sewn inside.

"Found it!"

The cover of the book is tan, and it looks like a new book that was just printed last week, without any stains or folding marks. The title written on the cover is "The Book of Fools", and underneath is a complex rhombus geometric symbol. Shade heard Luvia introduce this symbol, which represents the "Gnosis School" of the divination school, which means that he can capture the vague destiny directly by his own inspiration without the help of divination props.

In Luvia's opinion, the [Spiritual Order] to which Sister Devlin belongs is most likely the "Gnosis School". Although the nun has not shown any divination ability, Luvia learned a lot of things that Shade didn't know when she had a detailed talk with the nun last time.

【Want to open it and take a look? Try it and see if you are a fool who can only see the page. 】

"She" suggested with a smile. Shade put the book on the table, took out a bottle of holy water from his pocket, and suppressed the book that was shaking constantly, as if there was something inside that wanted to come out:

"This is what Sir Prisha wants. I won't open it without permission. Besides, if I ask him later, he won't mind if I open it."

"She" smiled, and Shade took out the containment items that Jazz had given him in advance. First, a red silk thread was used to tie the book in a cross shape, and then the book was wrapped with the skin of a three-horned antelope.

After feeling the trembling of the book and the obvious weakening of the whispering element, Shade pressed his hand on the piece of sheepskin:

"Prophets are all liars, soothsayers are all lies."

He said softly, and the book became completely motionless.

Of course, for safety reasons, Shade did not take the book out of the sheepskin, but took it to the basement. At this time, the battle in the basement has ended, and Sir Prisha is using thaumaturgy to modify Mr. Booker's memory.

Shad also stepped forward to help. When Sir saw Shad pouring holy water into Mr. Booker's mouth, Jazz smiled and sighed. The detective living in Saint Teresa Square is indeed rich enough.

Mr. Booker's luck is quite good. Just like Professor Manning, the influence of the relic on him is not irreversible. Although he will have migraines and neurasthenia for a long time after this incident, at least he There is still a possibility of returning to normal.

But unlike Professor Manning's time, Mr. Booker's memory of the incident was completely erased. Since Sir Prisha will leave Tobesk with the visiting delegation the day after tomorrow, Shade will visit him frequently in the next period of time to confirm his recovery symptoms.

As for the "Book of Fools", it was naturally taken away by the two of them as a reward for saving him. And this operation, which lasted just one and a half hours, was enough to be called a standard relic collection operation.

"I didn't expect it to go so smoothly. In the past, we often encountered trouble when collecting relics."

On the carriage ride back, Shade was still sighing, while Sir Prisha checked the book, and after opening it, he showed a thoughtful expression. But after flipping through a few pages, he showed a disappointed expression.

"Why, this book is of no use to you?"

Shad asked curiously, Jazz shook his head:

"Useful, but not as useful as expected."

He hesitated for a moment and handed the book to Shade:

"This is yours, detective, as a reward for helping me collect the relics this time."

"Huh?"

Xia De took the book hesitantly:

"Are you sure? I came to help you store the relic, but the reward is the relic itself?"

"I have already seen the contents of this book, and what I am looking for has been found. This book is of no use if it is left in my hands. I will go on a long journey next, and it is not suitable to carry this kind of book with me. Unfamiliar Relics ”

The middle-aged gentleman from the South said helplessly:

"Besides, knowledge itself needs to be passed on. Do I want to be like the collector just now and lock the knowledge firmly in the basement?"

Seeing what he said, Shade accepted the book, but he insisted on giving Sir Prisha another sum of money as if he had bought the "Book of Fools", thinking in his heart that he could This book was given to Luvia as a year-end gift.

"Give Dorothy the [Pen of Etlaine] left by the devil, give Luvia the "Book of Fools", give Iluna the 'Fire of the Sun', what should I give to Lesia? ....."

The carriage moved forward slowly, and Shade followed Sir Prisha's example and opened the book to check its contents.

Of course what was displayed in front of him was not a blank piece of paper, but a short piece of information about the relic:

[Sage-level relic [Source of Chaos], also known as [Huang Yue’s Orb], is a round bead with a flawless appearance and self-luminous properties. The containment method is to hide in a dark place, and the time in direct sunlight should not exceed three hours a day, otherwise the probability of a solar eclipse and associated disasters in the area will be greatly increased.

Note: The disasters associated with a solar eclipse usually have immeasurable consequences.

Positive Characteristic 1: Moon

This item can be seen as a yellow moon in any scene. Throw it overhead to make it levitate and follow. The light of this item can only be directly suppressed in a few ways, and cannot be extinguished under any other circumstances.

Note: The original moon was the silver moon, but the yellow moon inherited the meaning of the moon itself.

Positive Attribute 2: Guidance

Carrying this item will give you guidance in the right direction when you are in complex scenes such as mazes, primeval forests, and large cities.

Remarks: It can only guide the direction to find a way out, it cannot be used to find a target that you are not aware of.

Positive Trait 3: Chaos

If you embed this item into the right eye, you will gain the properties of the magic eye, and you will gain at least five material-free and cost-free spellcasting abilities such as [Chaos], and will greatly enhance any ability that directly causes intelligent creatures to fall into madness and lose their minds. . Inlaying into the left eye is ineffective.

Note: In occultism, it is believed that the left eye is related to the sun.

Positive Characteristic 4: Moon Sanctuary

This item is placed in a closed or semi-closed location for a long time, and the location acquires the characteristics of the Moon Sanctuary. If you use the moon's rituals or learn related knowledge in this scene, your efficiency and success rate will increase.

Note: Since it requires uninterrupted placement for a long time, using relics in this way is very wasteful.

Negative Characteristic 1: Confusion

When the item is directly illuminated by the light of the true yellow moon for a long time, the light of the item will have an effect similar to the "group chaos halo".

Note: This effect ignores most resistances and is very likely to cause mass accidents. When it is exposed to direct moonlight for more than three years, ten months and three days, no mortal object will be able to approach the object.

Negative Characteristic 2: Nightmare

Carrying this item for a long time will increase the probability of entering a nightmare. The specific content of the nightmare cannot be described, but it is suspected to be related to the split of the original moon and the departure of the ancient **** [#¥@%]. Nightmares increase the probability of a transcendent being losing control. If you encounter a nightmare, you need to refrain from touching the item again within the three-phase cycle.

Note: This relic most likely comes from (unreadable).

Message: This is an immeasurable treasure for astrologers and moon worshipers. 】
