The Whispering Verses Chapter 1618: The Doctor’s Past
"That battle was really hard."
The doctor continued to recall what happened when he was young:
"They and I were fighting and escaping, and we were escaping and fighting. We finally robbed the evil, ahem, robbed the dangerous ancient evil object, seriously injured two middle-level warlocks, and blinded the pair. One eye of each of the low-level twins - they have space abilities, and they kept chasing me. In the end, I was still seriously injured. Fortunately, I finally used the illusion of dreams to delay the steps of the high-level warlock. Before the Mirror Hidden Man appeared, he fled back to Tobesk City."
Bill Schneider smiled as he spoke, obviously very satisfied with the adventure in his memories:
"Later I heard that they had been looking for me for a while, but that was more than ten years ago. They never imagined that I was a middle-class bachelor who opened a psychological clinic in Tobesk City. If I hadn't mentioned the mirror today, Association, I have almost forgotten about this. I don’t know if the low-level warlocks who were blinded by me have recovered their sight. I remember that I was cruel at that time, and the damage to the eyes is difficult to recover. "
Everyone knew that Dr. Schneider had a very powerful past, so they were only slightly surprised to hear him talk about the past.
Dorothy believed the doctor's story ending, but she didn't believe the details the doctor told. After all, the doctor more than ten years ago was definitely not as strong as the Seven Rings now;
Luvia frowned, probably thinking about the angelic mirror and trying to find a way to deal with it. After all, the [Mirror Association] has been deeply involved in the search for the chosen one in space;
Priest Augustus wiped his pipe, the wrinkles on his face relaxed, and listened happily. No one knew what the old gentleman was thinking;
Only Shade still thought about the twins after the story ended, so much so that when he left with Dorothy, he was still in a distracted state.
"What are you thinking about?"
On the carriage that was slowly moving forward, Dorothy, who originally wanted to talk to Shade about Lesia, saw that the detective holding the cat was still frowning in thought, so she couldn't help but ask.
"Twins."
Shad said:
"Recently I keep meeting twins, the Foran brothers during the Ring City Riding Competition, the Green siblings from the Green Lake Hotel, and now there are the two low-ring warlocks from the Mirror Association mentioned by Dr. Schneider. ..... It was a low-level diagnosis more than ten years ago. If you are still alive now, you should be at least a middle-level diagnosis. They probably hate the doctor."
After he frowned slightly, he thought of other pairs of twins.
Grace and Helen are also twins, but he will not let the two sisters who finally got rid of the shackles of fate get involved in the whirlpool of the chosen ones again, so even if he knows about Edwards, he can Looking for help from the two sisters, but he just didn't go; Lecia and Dorothy were not sisters, but Shade was not willing to let them get involved in danger, and he had investigated the Cavendish family and Louisa Home, it is certain that none of them have anything to do with Edwards.
"Speaking of which, Lesia's mother, Queen Diana, is also pregnant with twins. I remember the due date is this fall? Fortunately, by the time they were born, the matter of the space chosen ones would have been over long ago."
He said casually, and then saw the writer's eyes widening in surprise:
"Really?"
"Yes, they are twin brothers...haven't I said that before?"
[No. 】
"No."
Dorothy immediately shook her head, then said with a smile:
"This is really new. Lesia and Agelina will have twin brothers. Just wait a moment."
As he spoke, he closed his eyes and leaned against Shade. But she quickly sat up, and Lesia asked Shade in surprise:
"The mother is pregnant with twin boys? Are you sure?"
It seems that this information is indeed important.
Lecia did not stay in Dorothy's body for long. She seemed to be sorting out some important documents.
When the carriage drove Shade and Dorothy home, Miss Writer went to the basement and took out the old camera that Shade bought from the newspaper office, and then asked Shade to show what he saw in Green Lake yesterday. The Earl of Newcastle in Lacton whom Lesia asked him to investigate.
Xia De then took out a part of his memory from the transparent bookshelf in the color of the starry sky around him. After Dorothy opened the book, she saw a very clear internal scene of the "Ivy Club". There were more than ten pictures in total, all about Count Carsonrick.
"Look at my new magic."
Dorothy said, staring at one of the pictures in the book, and with her free hand, she pressed the button of the camera without flash or focus. The second-hand red leather leather camera worked immediately, and Dorothy explained to Shade:
"Do you still remember my thaumaturgy of 'reading'? It is to write down the words in my mind. I have recently learned a very similar ability to reflect the pictures I see on film. In this way , you just need to give the film to Lesia."
"Printing the pictures you see on film? This is really a strange ability, it is simply a standard equipment for spies... Is this a newly invented thaumaturgy?"
This is inferred because the invention of the camera did not take long, and even if there were cameras in the Fifth Age, there would be no related witch secrets that have been passed down to the present.
"Yes, this is a newly developed thaumaturgy by professors from Zarath Academy of Literature."
Dorothy nodded and printed the remaining ten pictures on the remaining film. However, in order to prevent anyone from guessing which table Shade was sitting at at that time through the shooting angle of the photo, she deliberately used her excellent spatial imagination to fine-tune the camera angle.
This is not difficult for a ring wizard like Dorothy, who is good at scene and summoning thaumaturgy.
"So is there a thaumaturgy that captures the spirit through a camera, defeats it, or seals it on a specific film?"
Shad asked again curiously, Dorothy shook her head:
"Did you get inspiration from the angelic relic described by the doctor? I have never heard of this kind of thaumaturgy. Ring magicians want to defeat the spirit body. There are many simple methods, but it is troublesome to carry a camera."
"That's it."
Xia De nodded, and then his thoughts turned to where to go for dinner.
Saturday night is Shade's class time as usual, and this week's evening class continues to focus on topics related to the fairy tale "The Lovers of the Bell Tower". Although fairy tales are short, there is much more to learn and master when you start to understand the historical roots of the story.
Dorothy enjoyed this kind of teaching endlessly, and when it came to the topics of loyalty and love, Miss Writer had a lot to say:
"Even though they are thousands of miles apart, the knights who died in battle still meet at the top of the clock tower with their lovers who died of illness in their hometown. This is a great love fairy tale. Even the farthest distance cannot stop two hearts from falling apart. Encounter."
She said it in the way of reciting lines from an opera monologue, but Shade shook his head:
"What is the furthest distance?"
"So what do you think is the farthest distance?"
Miss Writer asked, with a tone that said that if Shade couldn't tell, he wouldn't be allowed to enter the bedroom tonight. Of course, even if she was willing to do this, Lesia would not agree.
"The farthest distance..."
Shade raised his face and looked at the window of the study. The appearance of him and Dorothy was clearly reflected on the window glass:
"The farthest distance in the world is that I am right next to you, but we can never touch you."
He said to himself reflected in the glass, and then heard the blonde girl moan:
"Shadow."
Turns his head to look at Dorothy. Dorothy, who was very touched by this sentence, looked at him with watery eyes, and then held his hand:
"Don't forget to make time tomorrow afternoon. Don't miss the appointment carefully arranged by Lecia."
"I know."
"And...tonight, are you going to touch the darkness within me?"
This is a very elegant way of saying it.
On Sunday, Shade finally met the pharmacist lady at the Green Lake Hotel.
This morning he had breakfast at home, and came to the Green Lake area again with the mentality of going out for a walk. He walked around from the back door to the front door of the hotel, opened the door and entered the first floor of the hotel, and saw a familiar woman. Warlock, sitting at the table where they first met, drinking morning tea.
On Sunday morning, most of the guests in the hotel did not get up very early, so there were not many people on the first floor of the hotel during breakfast time. Shade smiled and walked over and sat opposite the pharmacist:
"Good morning, ma'am, I thought I wouldn't see you until next week. How did you know I would show up now?"
"Don't you always show up at this time these days?"
The lady with short brown hair put the tea cup on the saucer. After not seeing each other for a few days, her attitude towards Shade was much better than when they first met, at least not so cold.
"How is your recovery from your injury going?"
Shad asked again, and the sorceress raised her eyebrows:
"Thank you for your concern. That little injury is nothing. You should trust my potion skills."
"So you have collected all the materials to make the key? When will we set off? I have an important appointment in the afternoon, so it's best to solve it in the morning."
Hearing this, the brown-haired pharmacist looked at him with an incomprehensible look:
"Last time we landed on the island, you also said that you had an important appointment in the evening. I didn't expect you to be so busy."
"You may have misunderstood. This time it's not the same woman as last time...I mean, it's just a coincidence."
The corners of the sorceress's mouth trembled, and then she got down to business:
"The key materials need additional preparation. The most important thing is the corpse teeth of the lord's wife. I'm afraid we have to go to the island to dig up ourselves. Because we don't know what we will encounter then, I can't perform at a high level in my current state. Strength, so I need to prepare some extra potions and alchemy items. We set off on Tuesday morning. I don't know how long we will spend on the island this time, so Mr. Watson, please cancel even those appointments with the ladies. No matter how beautiful the girl is and her heart is pure, please spare some time on Tuesday."
