The Whispering Verses Chapter 1759: The chain of promotion

Shad tried to pick up the black metal scale for inspection, but the boy who had not dared to speak now supported Mrs. Miles and said carefully:

"Maybe you can determine the direction by looking at the heights on the left and right sides... just like a compass."

The boy is right, the balance is not in a balanced state. When you hold it and rotate it in place, the left end of the balance is always pressed down, and when the left end points in different directions, the amount of pressure is also different.

So Shade turned around and found the direction with the lowest pressure on the scale. It pointed to the left front, so everyone held torches and walked dozens of steps along the path between the stalls, allowing the group to completely enter the black mist camp. During this period, the witch let the scale float from Shade's hand and let it spin slowly and evenly to help everyone adjust the direction better.

For this reason, after only taking a few dozen steps, they confirmed that the location pointed by the scale was deeper into the camp and not to the left hand side of the road ahead.

"Mrs. Myers, can you still hold on?"

Once deep into the camp, it takes longer to get out, and the depression and cold deep in the camp make it even more confusing. So Miss Higgins asked her employer in advance. Although the latter was tired, he still nodded:

"No problem."

The boy Andorra Ade was a little bolder. He continued to support the old woman consciously. Although no one asked him, he nodded shakily.

But at a glance, the path at the entrance of the camp was narrowing just as far as the field of vision could see. The stalls will become denser deep in the camp, and based on previous experience, once it is determined that you want to buy goods, you may not be able to leave without paying a price.

So Shade and the Witch discussed it, and finally decided that the four of them would move forward in a vertical row, with each person putting their hand without a torch on the shoulder of the person in front of them. The witches Leah Higgins and Scales walked in the front, followed by the old Sarah Miles, then Shad, and finally the boy Andor Ade.

"The reason why we didn't arrange you at the end is because as long as we don't violate the rules, the possibility of being attacked is very low, so there is no need to let you be at the end to guard the end of the team. On the contrary, you walk in the middle and can take care of both at the same time. Things before and after."

The witch explained this to Shade, but everyone could see that she was deliberately trying to protect the safety of Granny Miles.

Shad was fine with this arrangement and would protect everyone if possible. And probably because she was not at ease with Shade, the young witch also made a promise to Shade:

"If we have any coins left after Granny Miles' transaction is completed, all of those coins will be yours."

Shad still had no objection, but he didn't think he had a chance to use those coins. Judging from previous experience, neither the boy nor Mrs. Miles would be able to complete their deal if he could not find the god.

The best thing to do now is to find a way to get all the coins, and then use the coins to find possible gods. After finding the gods, help everyone fulfill their wishes through transactions with the gods.

But obviously the witch couldn't hand over all the coins easily, and Shade never thought that his first conflict with the witch of the fifth era would happen here. Anyway, this is only the first time to use this key. He is willing to wait and try his best to familiarize himself with the rules of this camp before making plans later.

So the four of them put their hands on the shoulders of the first person in turn, and then silently moved forward in the camp shrouded in black mist. Shade could feel the old woman in front of him and the boy behind him trembling, but no one wanted to give up because of this. It was hard to tell whether the behavior of the four of them was more bizarre at this time, or whether the completely motionless black shadows in the camp were more terrifying.

After entering the camp, the path between the stalls became increasingly narrow and rugged, until only one person could move forward without touching the surroundings. Most of the stalls here have three items on display, one is revealed and the other two are covered by the black mist. But there are also some stalls where the quantity of goods is far above average.

Furthermore, the name here is "Black Mist Camp" rather than "Black Mist Market", so in addition to vendors selling goods, there are also some black figures doing other things.

When the torch in the hands of Miss Higgins, the leader, illuminated the black figure standing on the rotten wooden bench, maintaining the action of "raising her head and swallowing the sword into her mouth", the originally motionless black figure Ying actually pulled the sword out of his mouth, then swallowed it into his mouth again, and then took it out again, repeating the process.

Miss Higgins paused obviously, and then continued to move forward as if she had not seen this strange scene. Shade originally thought something would happen, but she didn't expect that she passed in front of it smoothly, and then Granny Miles did not touch this strange black shadow. But when it was Shade's turn, the black figure's continuous movement of swallowing the sword suddenly stopped.

Everyone wisely did not choose to leave quickly, but also stopped. Shade and the Witch stood in front of Mrs. Miles and the boy Andor Ade.

The black shadow's hand holding the black mist sword dropped, and then jumped down from the rickety bench. It pointed at Shade with its other hand, and then pointed at the boy behind Shade.

While everyone was confused and nervous, it pulled out a tattered blood-brown cloth bag from behind the bench. After a few shakes, the sound of the contents of the bag colliding with each other resounded in the silent camp in the dark fog.

The black shadow pointed at Shade and the boy again, then tore open the zipper of the bag, opening a small opening and pointing it at Shade.

Of course it wasn't trying to **** Shade into its pocket, but it just stayed motionless.

Although the four people in the group had some guesses about the intentions of its actions, they still couldn’t believe it:

"Is it going to give you a gift?"

The witch's body trembled slightly, and the torch light illuminated her pale face. She endured her panic and asked the strange man beside her in a low voice:

"But that's not right. Even if the magician in the camp wants to give gifts to others, why only give them to men? I would understand if it was only given to children."

Shad understood when she said this, he was probably judged as a "child" again.

The boy hid behind Shade and did not dare to reach out. Shade stared at the pocket and suddenly moved a step away from the crowd.

Immediately, everyone heard the sound of chains clattering in the black mist. As expected, those dark, blood-stained chains emerged from the fog again, but this time the chains were no longer [Greed]. The chains that made up the chains were the language runes [Suicide] from different eras.

Shade hurriedly returned to his original position, and after confirming that the chain had retreated into the black mist, he put his hand into the pocket. This was completely different from touching [God's Gift Box]. The extremely cold chill traveled down his right hand to Shade's whole body, making him shiver. If it weren't for the initial fire still burning in his body, he doubted that he would even be able to hold on for five seconds.

There is far more than one thing in the pocket, and the tentacles are amazing whispering elements and chaotic spirits. Shade originally wanted "her" to help see what is the most valuable, but before asking, a kind of... The instinctive attraction had already allowed him to get in touch with what he wanted. It's not Shade who chooses the gift, it's the gift that chooses him:

"What is this?"

He didn't hesitate and took out the cold metal piece he touched.

It was a small black metal cube, its deep color was very similar to that black scale. The six sides of the cube were all engraved with the "Greed" rune, and as Shade watched, the metal actually melted into his hands, and he couldn't even shake it off.

[Outlander, your sin of "greed" has increased. 】

[Your Thaumaturgy - Chains of Sin has been affected, please wait... Thaumaturgy has been improved, and you can manifest two chains at the same time. 】

Amidst the clattering sound, [Sin Chains] were protruded from the left and right sleeves at the same time. They originally looked like metal that could absorb light, but now under the light of the torch, the metal texture became deeper and colder. When Shade had just fought against those numerous "greedy" chains, he realized that he might also be able to increase the number of [Sin Chains]. Unexpectedly, before he could take the initiative to do anything, this key thaumaturgy was actually improved. .

For the non-aggressive "Sin Chain", the most important thing in exerting the imprisonment effect is actually how to catch the opponent, and the increase in the number will bring immeasurable improvement.

"But, is there something wrong with the God of Wealth...greedy...?"

No one else said anything to Shade, not even the witch expressed an opinion.

"It's you next. Don't keep your hands in the bag for too long, not more than a second."

Xia De said to the boy behind him that the boy was just an ordinary person, and he was worried that he would be too affected.

So the boy tremblingly put his hand into the pocket. Almost in the next second, he pulled out his frost-covered hand, and there was a small dagger with a scabbard in his hand. . The scabbard and handle were decorated with black gems. Because of the cold, the metal had even stuck to his skin. It took Shade to cast a spell to revive him.

This item is also a relic, or a derivative of a relic. Of course it would be dangerous to put it on the boy, but when Shade suggested that he or the witch should keep the dagger temporarily, there was another clattering sound around him.

"I don't want it anymore, put your chains away."

After giving gifts to the two "children", Black Shadow got on the bench again and continued his magic show. The group of people learned more about the rules of this camp. In addition to vendors, there are other shadows here, but whether they encounter them is a blessing or a curse, it depends on them.
