The Whispering Verses Chapter 1674: Relationship
While diverting the attack, the two brothers quickly retreated and threw away their umbrellas. They stretched out their thumbs and index fingers on their free left and right hands to form a right angle. After joining together, they swept around.
Obviously they did not see the two of them, but Megan felt like she was locked. But fortunately, the Shade cat in her arms can also cast spells:
"Space Stable Halo."
Although I don’t know what the other party wants to do, it must be spatial ability. The cat form's spellcasting effect is weakened, but it is enough to withstand attacks through a curtain of rain and a door.
The sense of space lock was lifted. Although the two brothers failed to fight back, they retreated to a safe area. So the three people and the cat stared at each other through a frosted glass door, and the witch reminded Shade softly:
"I feel the blood connection, they are the eight-ringed twins from the [Mirror Association]."
What Audrey and Megan can feel, the two brothers who are soaked in the rain outside the door can also feel it. They frowned slightly and looked at each other. Although they didn't speak, they already understood what the other party meant:
"It's the man and the cat on the island last week!"
Because the opponent had two eight rings, the witch and the men outside the door did not take the first step because Shade could be praised by the [Mirror Hidden Man]. The three people and the cat looked silently at the illusory lights and shadows on the other side of the glass, listening to the rain falling.
Everyone knows the other's plan, but they also know that the other is still hesitating whether to really take action here. On this rainy morning, the remaining members of the Edwards family met again by chance in the gangster territory of the slums, but they no longer had the kinship they had when they left the central island of Green Lake.
For a long time, the two people who were still outside in the rain because their umbrellas were damaged said:
"I don't know, what should we call you. Cousins, cousins, aunts and uncles?"
A smile appeared at the corner of Megan's mouth. She immediately understood that the other party had obviously sensed that the two relatives were here and misunderstood Shade's identity, but she did not correct it:
"If you are really Uncle Hohenheim's grandchildren, then you should call me aunt and him uncle. We are also twins. It seems that the family bloodline is really magical."
Shadcat also understood the witch's plan, but he thought it was a good disguise.
“I don’t know, are they descendants of Grandpa Edward, Grandpa Alphonse or Grandma Maria?”
The men outside the door asked again, which meant that they did not know the situation of any other "relatives".
This time the witch did not answer, but asked her own question:
"Although I don't know what's going on with the family, I don't think joining the illegal ring warlock group is what Edwards' ancestors wanted us to do."
"Aunt, arrogance is the original sin. Please don't use your thoughts to speculate on us. You don't know our growth trajectory, nor do you know what our grandfathers and fathers have experienced."
As they spoke, the two brothers, each blind in one eye, looked at each other again, and thick steam mist appeared in the rain curtain. The high-heat steam partially vaporized the cold rainwater, making the steam mist in the narrow alley thicker and thicker.
Two rounds of eight-ring life rings appeared behind them, and then just like last time, the rings rotated orthogonally, almost forming a three-dimensional spherical shape.
Then the phantom on the frosted glass door in front of Shade and the brown-haired lady began to squirm, and the glass door turned into a mirror, clearly reflecting the appearance of one person and one cat. In the mirror, the two brothers also walked into the mirror image, and then tried to step out of the mirror image and enter the room.
But the witch, who was already prepared, waved her hand forward. Shade only heard the sound like a zipper closing - there were no zippers in this era, and then the glass door that turned into a mirror was completely shattered, and the mirror was in The two brothers disappeared.
This is not simply destroying the mirror, the witch seems to have used some kind of power to forcibly close the opened space. And this kind of power is completely unlike the witch's secret technique or the ability of a ring sorcerer.
[Yes, it is suspected to be the talent of the chosen one. 】
The glass door was shattered, allowing the cold wind from outside mixed with raindrops to flow into the room. The beautiful lady with brown shawl hair took a step forward holding the silver cat and came to the door. Then she saw the twin men retreating back to where they were standing in a somewhat embarrassed manner.
They did not use the ability to avoid the rain, and were completely soaked at this time, which made the two of them even more embarrassed.
Without the obstruction of glass, the three people and the cat can all observe each other. The man and cat turned into a woman and cat. Although it was unexpected, it is not very strange if you think about it carefully.

After all, the species and quantity are still the same.
"The prophecy of the family is that everyone in Edwards will reunite in the family's hometown sooner or later. You are indeed strong, but obviously not strong enough. Also, what's wrong with your eyes? Come here to see the bad eyes. Li, don’t you want to share your experiences of one-eyed life?”
Megan asked deliberately. The twin brothers, each blind in one eye, were probably used to this kind of provocation and did not act impulsively:
"Men are the power to stabilize space, and you are the talent to close space. Sure enough, the family bloodline has magical powers that are different from those of ring warlocks. The twins' powers also complement each other."
They probably misunderstood Shade's "space stability aura" again.
"I don't know if your parents are still alive, but you obviously lack the education to respect your elders. Please call me aunt and my nephews."
She stood on the edge of the indoor doorway with a smile and said, while the serious one-eyed men looked at the woman holding the cat more cautiously. After hesitating, the witch said again:
"Why are you looking for Bad Eye Barry? If possible, we can exchange information with each other. After all, relatives have to take care of each other."
Although the three people and one cat here all knew that the second half of the sentence was a lie, the existence of their biological relationship did not allow them to fight like normal enemies. The twin men looked at each other again, and the almost telepathic power allowed them to know what the other meant:
"We are looking for Bad-Eye Barry because he is connected to that island. Yes, the island is not deserted. Mr. [Mirror Hidden Man] believes that one of the ancestors of the family must still be on the island. , I just don’t know who it is.”
The witch pinched Shade Cat's leg and signaled to him that she was not the kind of person who was good at communication. This was something that both Granny Cassandra and Miss Swift were aware of when they were at Fort Midhill. Said.
"We are looking for Bad-Eyed Barry because of the water ghost thing. He raised water ghosts in Green Lake and had a conflict with us."
The silver cat said, and the twins frowned together. This was something they didn't know:
"Bad Eyes Barry has been transporting various goods to that island since he came to the local area more than 20 years ago. Some people have investigated this matter, but they have disappeared. There is no large storage of goods on that island There are traces of it, and there is reason to believe that his ship sailed to the family's territory, but not to that island."
This news was also unknown to Shade and the Witch. In other words, Megan seemed to know something, but it was only after hearing the twins' words that it was truly confirmed.
The silver cat continued:
"Barry the Bad Eye is a believer of the evil **** [God of the Deep Sea Drowned]. If you have investigated him, you should know that he was formerly a coldwater porter on the west coast of Delarion."
"The Order of the Drowned?"
The expressions on the faces of the two brothers were even more surprised. Although the [Mirror Association] took the initiative because of the matter of the selected candidates, before this spring, the [Mirror Association] had no influence in the local area, so they were not interested in Bali. His understanding is probably no better than that of Sha De at this time.
"Bad-Eyed Barry is related to the strange rumors of the 'Reunifier' in the local lakeside villages. There is reason to believe that he is sending people to spread such rumors-the world will eventually return to a singularity, and the Reunifier will The one who will lead everyone to live."
Shad heard this rumor when he was looking for Bad-Eyed Barry in the tavern in Pukhov Village. At that time, he thought it was very strange, but he did not expect that it was actually related to the Edwards family:
"This is wrong. I also know this rumor, but local villagers said that at least this rumor existed in his grandfather's generation. But Bad-Eyed Barry has only been in Green Lake City for more than 20 years."
The silver cat said, but the two brothers didn't know why.
The witch pinched the cat's leg again to give him a signal, so Shade also told the last message he knew:
"Barry the Bad Eye is the third ring, very close to the fourth ring. He is a ring warlock who is proficient in the study of the undead, and the third floor is his laboratory."
The two brothers nodded, because they looked exactly the same, so Shade could only distinguish them by their different blind eyes. The man who is blind on the right eye asked again:
"Look, isn't this kind of exchange of information good? Why not share with us the information you found on the third floor. Aunt, uncle, the blood of the family will definitely reunite. If you heard about the recent Prophet Association From the rumors circulating, you know what kind of dilemma we are facing - our ancestors have planned it for so long and will not let us go. You and we probably won't believe that our ancestors just want to treat us to a meal and a few drinks. Just a glass of wine."
This time it was the witch who spoke:
"Just such an exchange of information is enough. We have never thought about cooperating with the [Mirror Association]. Moreover, even the Mirror Hidden People have come to the local area. Are you really here just to solve family matters? Don’t you think we don’t know the epic of the chosen ones? Nephews, it’s not good to lie.”
She punctured this short-term false peace, and then asked another question:
"I am willing to talk to you here because I want to wait for some people. But you are standing there in the rain, what do you want to wait for?"
While talking, dozens of sorceresses emerged from the roofs of the two narrow alleys in the rain. Because the distance is too far, Shade doesn't know what level those ladies are, but even if they are all middle-level, plus Shade and Megan, this number is enough to give the two eighth-level warlocks an advantage. .
