The Whispering Verses Chapter 1539: The ceremony of [Spiritual Cult]

The cat was watching pigeons on the second floor window and spotted Shade at a glance. So when Shade opened the door from downstairs, he was warmly welcomed by his cat. Hall

We will have dinner at home tonight. Before the maids left yesterday, they stocked up enough food in the kitchen. And those who cook are naturally the Gemini girls who come to visit.

In their long lives, they have learned many useful life skills. Helen and Grace are much better at cooking than outsiders who can only cook simple meals.

"I thought a long time ago that I could cook in the kitchen with my sister and not have to worry about one of us strangling the other next week and then waiting alone for another 21 years."

Grace was preparing the last soup in the kitchen. Helen took off her apron and was already sitting next to Shade.

Gas lamps illuminated the restaurant, which was simply decorated but had a homely atmosphere. The oil painting painted by Hella Oxenfurt for Shad hung on the wall behind Shad. The young girl in a black skirt sat next to Shade, holding her chin with one hand and turning her head to look at her sister in the kitchen.

Xia De held little Mia who was looking forward to dinner:

"You will have plenty of time to live together in the future, just don't get bored." Tang

Helen turned to look at him:

"How can I be bored? My sister is me, and I am my sister. Sometimes I feel that maybe God divided a whole into two individuals when he created us. We are destined to be together, forever and ever. There will be no difference."

"Helen, I would be embarrassed if you said that."

Wearing a white skirt and an apron, Grace walked over. To be honest, Shade still felt weird watching two girls of fifteen or sixteen years old preparing dinner for him. Especially since the two of them have the same appearance, and they look inexplicably mature.

"Sit down and eat. After dinner, you have to go see Sister Devlin. The nun asked me to take you with me. I need your help to help me learn thaumaturgy."

"Of course no problem."

Grace said, pulling up her sister and sitting opposite Shade with her. Shade stood up and took out Mia's special small bowl from the cupboard and put it aside to prepare dinner for it. Hall

"Actually, I'm a little afraid of that nun."

Helen sat relaxed in the chair. She really liked this night.

"Why? Sister Devlin can't beat you, right?"

Xia De asked curiously, picked up a spoon and served soup for everyone.

"Most relics are difficult to destroy, let alone humanoid relics like ours, and the blind nun's original fire..."

Helen pursed her lips and took the soup bowl:

"We can become firewood." Tang

Xia De looked at them in surprise:

"Don't say such things, how could Sister Devlin do such a thing?"

However, this also reminded Shade that in addition to subspace evil objects and ancient evil spirits, humanoid relics also fell into the category that could be burned.

"In short, I just feel that the nun is scary."

Helen swayed her legs under the table, and Grace tied a napkin for her:

"Before Xina, we knew almost every great witch of darkness, so we have known the [Spiritual Order] from a long time ago. Those fire-wielding nuns are all great, even better than the Guardians Even among the previous fire-bearing nuns, Sister Devlin is a special one."

Grace tied her sister's napkin and then went to deal with her own napkin: Tang

"She is simply a natural fire-proof woman, she seems to be born for the flame. But correspondingly, it is as if the [primordial fire] also sucked away all her heat. Sir, don't watch her treat you Very gentle, in fact, the nun was so cold that she seemed..."

"Charred wood."

Helen added, then explained:

"This is not talking bad about others behind their backs. She really looks scary."

[Desire] also once commented that Sister Devlin looked like "charred wood" on the edge of the island in the middle of the Pantanal Swamp.

"What exactly is the Primeval Fire? Is it just the first flame in the world?"

Xia De asked curiously, and the Red Butterfly twins looked at each other: Tang

"Strictly speaking, no, the sun is the first fire, the first light, the first thunder in the world."

"Meow~"

Mia shouted while eating dinner.

"The original fire comes from before everything, from the very beginning. It is an existence that is older than this world, so it can represent our world."

Helen said very cautiously:

"The mystery of that flame is absolutely no less than any special item in your hand. Even the old gods..."

"Helen!" Hall

Grace said very seriously, so the girl who knew she had said something wrong covered her mouth and made an apologetic expression to Shade:

"We are just guessing about some things. You just need to know that [primordial fire] and the fire-wielding nuns are very important to this world."

Grace tied the napkin and gave an example:

“Fire-wielding nuns have never been the protagonists of epochal epics like ‘The Chosen One’. They are the ones who protect everything. When everything comes to an end, the fire will still light up the world. Therefore, all the sisters who hold fire will still light up the world. Fire Sisters are very cautious in their inheritance. We heard from Zina that this generation of Sister Devlin has not yet found a suitable candidate."

But Shade knew the right candidate, Luvia. However, he had seen in his dream the scene where the nun passed on the fire to Luvia before she turned into ashes and died, and he would never let it happen again.

After enjoying dinner at home, Mia was unwilling to follow at home as usual, so Shade went to Fort Midhill with Helen and Grace.

Because it was getting late, they went directly to the Snake Heart Hospital in the city, and then came to the sacrificial site located on the top of the mountains. Hall

Shad rarely comes here at night, so when he and the Red Butterfly Twins stepped out of the picture frame, they were immediately attracted by the boundless sea of ​​stars above their heads.

"This is really..."

The galaxy seems to be hanging upside down above your head, and you can even reach out and touch it. All the stars are so bright, even the stars that are rarely observed on weekdays can shine with their own brilliance.

"It's beautiful."

Grace asked softly from the side, Shade nodded, and then realized that after a long time, they must have seen similar scenery countless times.

"But only this time, I have someone with me."

Helen suddenly said, Shade was startled: Don

"Have you learned to read minds?"

"Oh, sir, you just wrote your thoughts directly on your face."

Although the Red Butterflies said they were a little afraid of Sister Devlin when they had dinner just now, they behaved very naturally when they greeted the nun after seeing her.

The weather near the top of the mountain tonight is excellent, and there is not a single cloud. It is the most suitable time to study [Moon Dream]. Sister Devlin was already waiting for them, but the learning venue was not in the sacrificial site, but in the fire-proof female building that Shade had visited once before. It was connected to the mountain-top sacrificial site through steps and was located slightly below the mountain. Cemetery (note).

Although this is a cemetery, it is actually just a very empty and open open space, because the body of the fire prevention girl will be turned into firewood after death, and there is actually no remains that can be buried. The empty square-like cemetery is flanked by stone walls and stone gates on both sides, and on the opposite sides are cliffs and nearly vertical cliffs of tens of thousands of feet.

The nuns of the [Spiritual Order] have been preparing for the ceremony here this afternoon. To be precise, the "sun, moon and stars" pattern in the open space of the Randall Valley [Night Temple] was painted on the flat ground sprinkled with white ash.

After making preparations, the blind nuns left one after another, leaving only Sister Devlin and the Red Butterfly girls. Hall

Shad took off his coat and shirt according to the nun's instructions, and then Sister Devlin used the tail hair of a strange alien creature, the "Moon Rabbit", to apply special paint to Shad's body. With the chest as the center, there are a few mithril fragments, and the shimmering pigment extends to the throat and the center of the back.

The "Moon-shaped Rabbit" is an extremely ugly rabbit with a crescent-moon face. Shade had only seen them in books before, and these rabbits were considered the ugliest rabbits ever to appear in the physical world.

After everything was ready, Shade, with his upper body naked, sat cross-legged in the center of the huge ceremonial array on the ground, while the nuns and the Hongdie girls retreated outside the venue.

After looking up at the stars and remembering the appearance of the stars, Shade closed his eyes and gradually entered a meditative state - this was very simple for him. For this world, since the "spirit" of a ring magician is not pure energy, meditation alone cannot quickly restore the spirit. This leads to the fact that meditation, which seems to be very useful to extraordinary people, is actually just an auxiliary ritual and spiritual enhancement. power and means of echoing certain thaumaturgy.

Correspondence students have not been guided by professional professors to meditate, but the mastery of their own minds and bodies by high-level ring magicians allows them to quickly master meditation techniques even without frequent practice.

Shad is a person who is very talented in "meditation". After relaxing his mind, he slowly let the physical senses disappear, and then forced the spirit body to gradually sink in the dark field of vision to the "just memorized" "Starry Sky" in the illusion.

Deep meditation is very close to the state of sleep. When Shade found that he could vaguely see the boundless wilderness around him, he knew that he had succeeded. Hall

In the real world, the silver lines on Shade's body took the lead in emitting light like real moonlight as his spirit entered a deep state of meditation. As the light "ignited" the ritual matrix on the ground, the images of the sun, moon and stars simultaneously emitted the faint light of the silver moon.

The light spread like ripples on the ground, and the sparkling light adhered to the surface until it was like a galaxy projected on the ground of the fire prevention female cemetery.
