The Whispering Verses Chapter 1137: “Burned Wood”


Snow is still falling on the islands in the middle of the Pantanal Lake, but the islands covered in silver are covered with dense vines and dead trees. It seems to have grown in just a few days, and these strange plants have elemental reactions, and they are special plants that can be used as potion materials. Although due to the residual power of the evil, it is difficult to use these plants to prepare Potions can be quite dangerous.

Looking from the front of the tower towards the bottom of the hill, you can still see the current appearance of the Stonehenge ruins. The bonfire has long been extinguished, but traces of the battle still remain on the ground. The deep crater left by the dead forest destroyed by Lykins Prisha's blow has been covered with snow.

Thirteen thick giant trees stand at the original location of Stonehenge. This ancient ritual formation has completely lost its power due to excessive use by Shade. But these giant trees will still protect the island and use their own vitality to spread more life.

Their destination is the small dock below the lighthouse. Along the way, the nun and Shade told more about the aftermath of the Battle of Pantanal, and Shade also learned that Iluna was already on her way back, and the three great witches returned to Huntington City.

"Recovering the flames of the original fire on the lighthouse and burning the huge firewood. I can give you more power."

The lighthouse is not far from the shore. A path leads to the shore through the remaining dead woods on the east side of the lighthouse. While seeing the big lake from a distance, Shade was surprised that the Pantanal Lake looked like this during the day.

To be honest, although there is still a miasma and weird plant communities grow on both sides of the lake shore, the scenery here is surprisingly good.

The nun spoke softly to Shade. As Shade continued to move forward, he turned to look at her. There was a faint smile on his fair face under the silver eyepatch:

"There is no need to go back to the sacrificial site, you can do it here."

The two of them walked to the shore. There was thin mist above the lake, so they could not see the situation on the other side of the lake. The Church of Nature is currently mobilizing teams to rush here. From now on, the Church of Nature will be responsible for the Pantanal. Of course, responsibility also means power. This swamp can really be called a treasure house.

Standing on the shore, the nun bent slightly and held her hands together. The round black flame core and slender red flames appeared in her hands, and the flame tail swayed in the cold winter wind:

"Heroes who bear the fire, please touch this original flame."

As before, Shade knelt on one knee on the snow on the shore and touched the nun's palm.

The fiery red light stream wrapped around the arms of Shade and Sister Devlin, and mottled cracks appeared on their bodies at the same time. The flame flow flowed into the cracks in Shade's arm, and the rising fire made his whole body seem to be on fire.

The flames melted the snow, revealing a faint light in the mist. "She" whispered in Shade's ear:

[Outlander, the original fire in your body has been further strengthened. 】

【You can sense the flames of the first fire in a wider range. 】

【?无禦尦 Su涫?? Flame is attached to increase the power of the initial fire for your weapon. 】

[When you light a bonfire, the physical and spiritual recovery speed and resistance within the fire range will be enhanced. 】

[The power related to flames has been further enhanced. 】

The flames gradually gathered around the two of them. Sister Devlin used her slightly burned hands to pull Shaa up. Her palms were very warm:

"Using the evil things in the Pantanal as firewood, I passively gained part of the power of the evil things, about the dying plants, but I cannot share this with you."

Xia De smiled and shook his head:

"Sister, do I seem to be such a greedy person?"

The nun lowered her head slightly, her long gray braid swaying in the wind on her back, and her silver eye mask reflected the not-dazzling winter sunlight. She seemed shy and still looked like her original self, but her voice was still so gentle:

"I gave Miss Anat some flames, and she can contact me at any time. She has informed me about the arrow, and you can decide on your own as to who will qualify for the fourth place."

Shad looked at the lake and the nun continued:

"Although I am also the chosen one, this qualification is what you gave me. I agree with you on everything about the chosen ones."

Xia De nodded, and while exhaling, white smoke was spit out like a long dragon. The temperature of the original fire spreads from the heart to the whole body, coupled with the blessing of the old **** of winter, winter is no longer an unbearable season for him.

He took out the pink perfume bottle from his pocket in a good mood, and then walked a few more steps towards the shore, while the nun followed Shade quietly. After his boots were slapped by the lake water, Shade looked at the calm water shrouded in mist.

Suddenly, a huge shadow flashed across the lake in the distance. Just seeing the general shape of the shadow, Shade felt as if his heart stopped beating for a second.

The whisper element spreads in the fog, and the woman's laughing voice comes from all directions. The sound of paddling got closer and closer, and a series of bubbles appeared under the water near the shore.

Suddenly, a small black shadow appeared from under the bubble, and then, the beautiful woman's head emerged from the water. Her long black hair was wet against her cheeks, and water droplets slid down her fair cheeks toward the water.

She was very close to the shore, and the lake was fairly clear, but Shade still couldn't see her shoulders under the lake. He carefully took a step back, then bent down and placed the perfume bottle on the water:

"I brought what you asked for."

The perfume bottle was half-immersed in the lake water, tilted and automatically floated towards the beautiful woman's head. The purple eyes looked at Shade with a smile.

As the lake water was stirred, smooth arms with water beads stretched out from under the water. The pearl-like color even made Shade have the urge to take a bite.

"Very good."

The arm picked up the vial, and then a white arm dripping with water stretched out from the lake and uncorked the vial. However, no matter what angle he looked at, Shade could not regard the head and the two hands as a coordinated part of a complete human body.

The winter sunlight passed through the hazy mist and shone on the raised vial. The pink bottle and the pearl-colored arms seemed to be glowing.

The arm held the bottle above the woman's head, and then the head slightly raised, the small mouth covered with lipstick and water opened, and the pink tongue lightly licked the lips. The bottle was slightly tilted, so the pink transparent liquid with a strange aroma slipped out of the bottle like some kind of gel and poured into the mouth.

"Yeah~"

Seductive moans gushed out from the mouth of the head on the surface of the water, which made Shade, who was watching this scene, really feel that he couldn't stand it anymore. His teeth bit the inner wall of his mouth to calm himself down, and [Desire], who drank the pink essential oil, also smiled and gave his evaluation:

"Beautiful works of art, this kind of desire is really amazing. Unfortunately, only in the epics of the chosen ones can such quality be harvested."

The beautiful purple eyes looked at Shade, and there was even water on the eyelashes:

"Even better than I thought."

"I didn't do anything."

"But you've done everything."

She bit her lip with a smile and said, licking her lips gently with her tongue again:

"The desire of a demigod witch, even in the fifth era, is not so easy to collect. So, should I give you some extra rewards?"

The corners of Shade's mouth trembled slightly, trying to wake up a little. Compared to seeing desire at night, seeing that face more clearly during the day will have a greater impact:

"You let us cross the lake, and I gave you what you asked for. We are settled."

As he spoke, he stepped back. The woman's head did not stop him. Instead, he re-corked the empty pink vial, placed it on the water and pushed it gently. The perfume bottle floated along the lake water. Shade's feet hit his boots:

"This is for you. You don't have to pick it up, let it stay here and be picked up by others, which is also very interesting."

Xia De could only bend down to pick it up, and decided to put it in the [God’s Gift Box] and would never take it out easily.

"Interesting soul, if you need to see me, liquefy the crystal of desire, put it in a bottle, throw it into the body of water and call my name."

The "Mermaid" of [Desire] raised her head, and her head moved backwards in the lake, creating distinct ripples. A huge shadow flashed under the water again, but the whispering elements had begun to decline:

"Looking forward to our next meeting. What you need to understand is that when the final day comes, power knows no good or evil."

The head "slided" on the water into the fog in the distance, and gradually disappeared.

Shade held the small pink perfume bottle tightly, closed his eyes and let out a long breath. After a long time, he turned to look at Sister Devlin:

"I probably lost my temper just now."

Although her back was turned to the nun just now, Sister Devlin did not rely on her eyes to see things, so she could definitely see Shade's positive expression.

"After all, it is an unknowable relic, even more powerful than what is recorded in ancient books."

Despite saying this, the nun's expression didn't seem to change at all.

"Fortunately, she doesn't seem to be interested in you."

Xia De said happily and stuffed the pink perfume bottle into his pocket. But just as he finished speaking, the shy girl-like voice came from the lake again, accompanied by a light laughter like a silver bell:

"Why would I be interested in a piece of wood?"

Sister Devlin remained expressionless.

"Especially since she was still a burnt piece of wood."

Xia De turned his head to look into the lake in panic, but there was no trace of [Desire] in the mist. Sister Devlin was still expressionless, and Shade admired the nun's self-control.
