The Whispering Verses Chapter 2099: Hunters in the woods
Chapter 2099 Hunters in the Forest
[Outlander, you have come into contact with a "miracle". 】
As the voice reminded him, Shade also saw clearly that it was a piece of dragon scale. Judging from the color, it should come from a golden dragon, and it is an extremely powerful golden dragon. Just the appearance of a dragon scale here, the influence of dragon power has already exceeded that of the dragon nest that Shade discovered.
Of course, the impact on Xia De is still not great.
He raised his head to admire the beautiful scales, and then noticed Miss Belindel beside her covering her chest.
"What's wrong?"
He asked worriedly, and the blonde witch shook her head:
"It's nothing, I suddenly felt palpitations, this afternoon too. In fact, my divination before the trip told me that I will encounter danger tonight, but I will also get unexpected results. Don't worry, fate did not tell me Death is such a beautiful scale."
She reached out and took off the scales embedded in the rock wall. The scales from the powerful ancient dragon were suspended in her hands. The slightly glowing scales also illuminated her face. She wanted to talk to Sha De Talking about the scales, I found that Shade lowered his head and looked at the fragment of the sealing stone slab:
"There is text on the back."
He bent down and pieced the six pieces of stone together, and sure enough he saw words on the back. But this time it is no longer the ancient dragon language runes, but the universal script at the end of the fifth era. The translated meaning is roughly:
[The dragon with broken shell, seven-color dragon scales. 】
Miss Belindel’s eyes widened for a moment, and then Shade spoke first:
"Remnants of the Psalm?"
"Have you seen other fragments before?"
"I went to Green Lake with Miss Bernice and was lucky enough to see it. But now that the fragments of the Psalm have appeared."
Xia De looked at the golden dragon’s scales:
"There were speculations when I met the Dragon Feast Cult. Now it seems that it is indeed the case. Something big is really going to happen in Yuewan City. However, how to understand this passage? This refers to the identity of the chosen one. Or does it refer to the content of the Chosen Ceremony?"
Touched the [Lord of Immortality Ring], took a deep breath and turned back time, making the slate whole again, but without the power of the seal:
"Miss Belindel, you and Miss Bernanise found this tablet together. I am not involved in the interpretation of the remaining chapters of the poem, but Miss Bernanise's share of the credit must be counted. ”
"You are really loyal."
She said this deliberately. While taking the slate, she observed Shade's expression and felt that something was wrong with her tone. She quietly glanced at Shade again and found that Shade didn't care, but carefully put away the glove.
"Speaking of which, can you tell me what this glove is? I don't feel too many traces of elements."
The witch asked again.
"Dragon leather gloves are made from the scales, skin, hair and some knitted materials of the dragonborn when they transform. This is a gift given to me by a dragonborn girl, but she is not local and will not interact with the people in Yuewan. Things are related.”
"Dragonborn girl."
Thinking of the "butterfly" thing, Miss Belinder was not particularly surprised. I want to make fun of Sha De, but I am worried that my inner thoughts will be revealed:
"But when you do these things, I mean being friendly with the girls, do Vanessa and Miss Lassers know?"
"I think I know."
Miss Belindel blinked:
"Oh, it seems the Golden Dawn Opera is more complicated than I thought."
It is unclear whether the Witch Emperor who left the fragment of the poem was also the one who left the golden dragon scales. But they can study these slowly after going back, at least now they have obtained the key items.
After a short inspection to make sure there was no other discovery, everyone returned the same way. At the same time, the witch also noticed that the roots of the giant tree above the hill had wrapped around the rock wall where the dragon scales were originally, so it could be affected and draw power. Now that the ancient dragon's scales have been taken away, although the ancient trees above the hills will not wither, they will lose the possibility of growing taller in the future.
Of course the middle-aged woman who was left in the cave could not escape, so the maid from Jiuhuan took her away with everyone. Miss Belindle was curious about where she came from, and werewolves were really rare these days.
Leaving the cave from the side wall of the low hills, the moonlight in the forest made Shade feel that his field of vision was much wider. The stench in the cave disappeared, and even the air became extremely fresh. There is no sound in the silent forest, so when the invisible wind arrows shoot from the forest, the sense of danger in the inspiration seems so abrupt.
"Enemy attack!"
That wind arrow was by no means a test, but had been lying in wait for a long time, waiting for a fatal blow when the few people in the cave appeared.
Shad and Miss Belindel walked in the front. The powerful sixth sense of the Great Witch of Destiny and "her" reminder in Shad's ear made them aware of the crisis almost at the same time. The witch opened her mouth to cast a spell, but Shade moved faster and touched the hilt of the sword at his waist, silently thinking:
"Seal of Heaton!"
The spherical shield formed by the escape of the golden stream of light blocked the entrance of the hole. The moment the golden shield came into contact with the wind arrow, a clanging sound overflowed, and the exploding wind arrow counterattacked with the [Heton Seal] The energy of success rolled back, causing a violent wind to suddenly rise in the dark forest.
"There are three people on the other side."
Although the witch protected by Shade was surprised that the move just now looked so similar to the Heaton Seal of [Sun Church], she still remembered what she should do at this time:
"One with ten rings, one with nine rings, and one with eight rings."
"I'll stop one and leave the rest to you."
As he spoke, Shade stepped forward with the sword in his hand, and then disappeared directly. He used the casting materials before encountering the werewolf. It was also difficult for him to judge the attacker's level from a long distance, so when using [Raglai's Jump], he directly selected the enemy who shot the wind arrow just now.
The field of view in the dense forest is very small, and the sound of the surrounding wind greatly disturbs the hearing. When Shade chased into the forest, the archer had disappeared. When he heard the sound of grass on the right, he instinctively looked to the right, but invisible wind arrows flew from the left.
At this moment, far away from the great witch of fate, Shade didn't care what ability he used. The long sword slashed diagonally towards the side, and then the bright arc-shaped moon blade collided with the wind arrow, and another storm was born in the forest.
"At least nine rings."
Shad understood the level of his opponent and continued to swing his sword forward while the surrounding vegetation swayed and rustled. Long swords and invisible weapons clashed in the air, and sparks produced by the metal collision appeared one after another amidst the clanging sound.
The opponent at this time is the person who shot the arrow just now. The opponent's invisibility ability is extremely good. Even if he is right in front of Sha De, Sha De can't see him at all.
[Cut diagonally to the left, turn sideways to the right, block with your sword, and thrust forward. 】
Fortunately, it doesn’t matter whether you can see it or not. Shade’s cooperation with the gentle “her” in his ear has already become an instinctive reaction. Besides, Sister Devlin had trained Shade Meng’s Eye Sword at the mountain top sacrificial site. Fighting skills.
At the entrance of the cave behind him, the witch and the maids had already fought against two other opponents, but Shade didn't care about what was going on there at all. He focused on drawing the sword into the air in front of him. The speed of drawing the sword became faster and faster, and the moonlight attached to the sword became brighter and brighter. Until the end, when Shade once again deflected the opponent's charged diagonal slash, taking advantage of the opponent's inability to counterattack, he raised his sword and swept forward a moonlight sword mark with a radius of at least 10 meters. Jiu, who was not actually good at cold weapon combat, The ring warlock finally hid in the forest again.
Shad also used "Ragrai's Jump" to disappear at the same time as his opponent disappeared. The leaves that had been rolled up due to the battle slowly fell to the ground at this time. The trees slowly collapsed due to the sweep of the moonlight sword marks, stirring up fallen leaves and smoke in the forest. There were sounds of other people fighting in the distance, but there was silence in the forest. Both sides were waiting for the other side to reveal its flaws first.
The silence did not last long. When the red butterfly suddenly appeared among the treetops, the wind arrow appeared almost immediately and penetrated the butterfly. But the next moment, the moonlight arrow also shot towards the wind arrow and appeared. direction.
The silver arrow did not seem to hit the target, because immediately afterwards another shadowless wind arrow passed through the treetops in the dark night, and immediately received another silver arrow counterattack.
No one can determine the other's true location. The two of them are hiding in the forest like the most experienced hunters in the forest, waiting to give the other a fatal blow when they reveal their flaws. This unknown nine-ring warlock was definitely not the toughest enemy Shade had encountered this time, but the opponent's caution was commendable among all his previous opponents.
The opponent seems to have the ability to sense the wind, and Shade's slightly larger movements in the forest will be easily detected. In the battle under the hills not far behind them, the witch and her party seemed to have encountered some trouble. Shade, who didn't want to wait any longer, decided to take a little risk.
When the arrows from both sides stopped again, he deliberately exposed a flaw in the forest. Then the wind arrow that locked directly on his head appeared in front of his "eyes" almost in the next second. Such an attack would also expose the nine-ring warlock's position at the moment, but based on the experience of the previous two confrontations, Shade at this time would have no time to counterattack, whether he was defending or dodging.
Only this time is different from before:
"Adele's time stands still!"
The pocket watch is held close to the body in the pocket, and the eyes are staring straight ahead at the distorted air. The still wind left a bloodstain on Shade's face one moment, but the next moment the bloodstain squirmed and recovered, and Shade stood there and opened the "Star Trace" whose color was barely concealed by the spell:
"Madman, do you want to die with me?"
The ring warlock in the forest hurriedly jumped from a tree to escape, but because he did not expect the counterattack to come so quickly, half of his arm disappeared after the silver light streak passed by his side.
