Chapter 1418 Summer Flowers
"What do you want?"
Eluna asked impatiently:
"I don't like guessing riddles, and I don't like staying in this smelly place all the time."
This is a sewer after all, and the only lighting is the ball of light summoned by Iluna.
Then the girl pointed at Shade:
"I want his blood."
"My blood?"
Shad, who had been silent for a long time, raised his eyebrows and asked before Iluna could object:
"I can give you my blood, but you have to answer me, why do you need my blood?"
He frowned slightly:
"I once used a strange relic to identify my ancestry. As far as I know, I am 100% human."
The young girl selling flowers pursed her lips to prevent herself from laughing, to prevent herself from being hit by the falling moon when walking at night:
"I'm just a flower seller. I don't understand what you're saying. Give me your blood, I don't need a lot, and then I'll leave this city. The twisted soil and the blood of the noble will Water the most beautiful flowers, that’s all I want.”
"Shad, the witches said that you just fell seriously ill a few days ago."
Eluna looked at Shade hesitantly, Shade shook his head and continued to say to the girl:
"If you don't answer me, you have actually told me the answer. What is the difference between my blood and other people's blood?"
The girl blinked:
"Well, you have great power in your soul, so your blood also has a power that is different from that of mortals. Yes, don't think about it. You are an ordinary human being. My words have definitely not given you anything. Answer."
She said as if she was a little scared, and "she" in Shade's ear laughed, but this time the laughter was a little strange.
"Okay, I'll just treat it like that."
Xia De said softly, raising his wrist:
"How many are needed?"
"Just drop it into my flowerpot and wait until it blooms."
"Let me help you."
Iluna said worriedly.
So the two of them and the little girl went to the depths of the room, to the table against the brick wall. The girl carefully jumped on the stool to see the flowerpot.
Eluna took out the knife, carefully cut Shade's finger, and then pinched out a drop of blood.
"Iluna, are you too conservative? Shouldn't it be a matter of skill?"
"You have just recovered from a serious illness. Don't engage in bloodletting therapy. That should have been eliminated in the old times."
The seventeen-year-old girl said.
The first drop of blood fell into the flower pot, and the seedlings in the pot grew rapidly and soon grew into tall branches. The second drop of blood fell into the flower pot, the branches grew, and the buds appeared one by one. The third drop of blood fell into the flower pot, and white daisies bloomed.
That at least looks like a daisy.
"My blood still has this effect?"
Xia De was doubtful about this, and decided to find a flower pot and try it out if he had time.
"Of course there is no ordinary situation. It was my flowerpot and my strength that contributed to this result."
The girl looked very happy when she saw the flowers in the flowerpot blooming:
"Take those four girls with you. I don't need them anymore. I'm leaving this city now. After all, something big is going to happen here. It's also good to leave early to avoid the limelight."
She picked up the flowerpot, which was a bit larger than her body, with a bright smile on her face. But then I thought of another thing, so I put the flowerpot down again:
"There are also gifts for you."
"I don't want your gift."
Iluna snorted, and the girl smiled without speaking to her.
She put her hand into her little basket and took out the scissors specially used for pruning flower branches:
"Since you don't want my gift, then both gifts will be given to this gentleman. Can you give me a drop of your blood? For this pure white flower prepared for this gentleman, dye it with your Color."
Eluna reluctantly reached out and dropped a drop of her blood on a small white flower that had just bloomed in the flowerpot. The blood soon dyed the flowers as crimson as the summer sun.
So the flower seller cut the little flower off from the branch and handed it to Shade:
"This is a summer flower born from the twisted earth. Eating this flower may bring you the power of this young girl."
She smiled and repeated what Iluna had just said about her age. Shade took the flower and immediately felt warm all over his body.
"Carry this flower, you will not be afraid of the cold of winter. Born from the twisted earth, born from the blood of sages, born from the gift of the heroes of destiny. This is the most beautiful flower, this is the bravest Flower."
She said in a childish voice, as if singing. Then he picked up his small flower basket and picked up the big flowerpot:
"In addition, I chose this place because there is a twisted land nearby. If you are interested, you can go and have a look. Goodbye, destined hero, don't be so angry next time you meet me, anger will It makes girls age faster."
"you"
Iluna felt that she could not control her temper today, and the flower seller smiled and asked Xiang Shade:
"Sir, do you have anything else to do? It's okay, I'm leaving."
Somehow, Shade actually felt that he saw the shadow of [desire] in this girl. This does not mean that the girl in front of him has the same almost infinite charm as [Desire], but it means that as humanoid relics, they are not much like relics.
"Desire?"
The girl suddenly asked, and Shade was surprised:
"Can you read minds?"
"Of course not, but you literally have it written all over your face."
The little girl said with a smile, her voice was very sweet:
"But your idea is correct. Autumn is the season of abundance and harvest, which is very similar to the ability represented by [Desire]. If you want to find autumn flowers, you can ask her for help."
After saying that, he said goodbye to Shade and Iluna, who was still angry:
"Goodbye, I look forward to our next meeting."
After saying that, she hugged the flowerpot and the small basket, and skipped away from the iron fence. When Shade followed her out to see where she had gone, the relics had disappeared, leaving only a nursery rhyme-like song:
"Praise the earth and you,
Praise the earth and me.
Buy little flowers,
Harvest the fruits of sincerity.
Bless the flower girl,
The gods of other worlds protect us.
May the earth be with you and me,
May the delicate childhood never go away. ”
The second half of the song was blurry and Shade did not hear the full text.
"Do I look old?"
Eluna didn't care about the girl just now, but hesitantly tugged on Shade's sleeve.
Xia De twisted the flower in his hand:
"Why do you think so? Even Princess Agelina, who is the same age as you, looks more mature than you."
"Why do I feel like you are not complimenting me? Forget it."
She put her hands behind her back and asked Xiang Xia De hesitantly:
"Knight, can you give me some help? Let me be more confident in my charm."
Xia De also looked at her:
"I've always thought you were very attractive, even compared to the big witches. Okay."
He moved closer to Iluna, and while Iluna closed her eyes and stretched her head forward slightly, he kissed her.
In this way, the investigation of the "missing flower girl" case officially ended, and Shade also harvested a summer flower. After completing the task of the "Worm Cave" Time Key, the white flower composed of petals given by friends was a spring flower. In this way, Shade had gathered together the sacrifices for the Chosen One Ceremony. part.
Of course, they cannot leave the sewer area yet, because when the flower girl left, she said that there was also a twisted earth nearby, which represented the existence of the "Crazy Earth".
Because they did not know the specific location, Shade and Iluna could only search on both sides of the sewer pipe after confirming the safety of the four sleeping girls. Even Shade could only become aware of its existence after coming into contact with the "Crazy Land".
But unfortunately, the search at both ends did not go smoothly. Neither Shade nor Iluna found any abnormalities.
After meeting again in the sewer hut, Iluna came up with another idea:
"Since that annoying girl just wanted to use the twisted power of the earth to plant flowers, it means that the location where she planted flowers should be very close to the Crazy Earth."
So Shade turned his attention to the stone brick wall behind the table. He walked over and touched it with his hand, but did not find the power of Crazy Earth:
"Is there something empty behind this wall?"
"Can't you just open it and try it?"
Eluna was eager to give it a try and asked Shade to move the table aside:
"I learned a new trick recently, look."
She rubbed her palms, then asked Shade to step back and face the brick wall:
"Look at me - ha!"
A palm shot forward, like a white mist flying out of the palm. The invisible force field formed a huge impact, directly denting the wall backwards:
"The back is really empty, let's do it again - ha!"
Eluna smacked her palm forward again, and this time the bricks of the wall finally broke away from the wall and flew backwards in pieces, causing waves of sound that continued in the empty sewer. echo.
And her move made Shade inexplicably think of the blow he received from the long-haired Luvia when he was in the Night Temple.
Behind the brick wall was a sealed secret room without any other exits. Shade lowered his head and as soon as he crossed the hole, he felt the power of the crazy earth.
The situation here is not serious, and it is probably not even felt on the city ground directly above. Because there was a layer of black mud on the ground, Shade did not let Iluna follow him. He lit up the moonlight on his fingertips to check the general situation of the secret room, and then said to the girl outside the wall:
"I don't see any special characteristics of the crazy land here. It seems to be just pure pollution."
