The Whispering Verses Chapter 221: Potions, mirrors and mazes


"What does it mean to be a person with a special destiny?"

Shad asked, Miss Anat pointed at him:

"This is the simplest condition in the ceremony, because both you and I can, you are outside the destiny, and I..."

Miss Bayas subconsciously covered her eyes, but immediately put them down and answered firmly:

"It's easier than I thought. The price to pay for gaining power. If it's just one eye, I think I should be fine."

The ritual requires the sacrifice of one's own eyes, so it cannot be replaced with something like a magic eye.

“But if this kind of ritual of sacrificing to the gods requires your eyes, I’m afraid it will probably not be possible to restore it in the future (note).”

Xia De reminded worriedly that he has learned more and more common sense about mysticism recently. She is really seventeen years old, and this decision will affect her whole life.

"Detective, gaining power comes at a price."

Miss Bayas gritted her teeth with a serious face:

“I am determined to be the chosen one, not because I am asked to do it, but because I want to do it.

I am not a very determined person, but this strength has always been entangled with me, it is a part of me. My heart is also eager to explore it. If you are not me, you will not understand that fateful desire. When I dream back at midnight, I often think about what the power hidden in my soul and body is. Now I understand. ”

Both Shade and Miss Anat looked at her, Miss Bayas had a firm expression:

"An eye, a safe exchange for powerful power, I don't think anyone would refuse. Moreover, it is not really irrecoverable. But... Detective, if the sacrificed eye really cannot be recovered, I hope you don’t think my face is very...”

"No way."

"Yeah."

She nodded and said no more.

It is difficult for Shade to understand how she feels at this time, but if he encounters such an opportunity, he can exchange one eye for the potential and extraordinary power to become a 13th-level warlock, he will probably hesitate. Finally chose to accept it happily.

Power has a price after all. In this world, there is no good thing that can be obtained without paying for it.

"So the fateful enemy, Iluna, who do you want to choose?"

After waiting for a while and seeing Miss Bayas calm down, Miss Anat asked.

"The one with silver eyes."

This answer requires almost no guessing, and this is the most appropriate choice. This type of sacrificial ceremony cannot be successful by just picking an ordinary person.

"You don't have to worry about your eyes. Even if it really can't be restored, I can use divination to find a cure for you."

Miss Anat said softly, and Miss Bayas smiled at her:

"It's great to meet you."

"Let's wait until you successfully obtain the identity of the chosen one."

The female diviner picked up a gold coin again. After the first divination, there were only two blood coins left.

"Can I use one more to divine the difficulties that I may encounter when fighting against those with silver eyes?"

She asked Xiang Shade.

"Ask me what to do?"

"Didn't you win this blood money? This is your [relic]."

"Huh?"

Xia De finally understood her logic and nodded:

"This kind of thing has almost no positive effect on the ring warlock. I dare not keep it myself. I will use it as soon as it is used. But Miss Anat, does it not burden you to continue such divination?"

Miss Bayas also thought of this and looked at the female fortune teller worriedly.

Aware of the concern of the two companions, Miss Anat smiled softly:

"One of you is willing to give your eyes, and the other is willing to give precious [relics], how can I hold back? But it doesn't matter, after the divination, I just need to sleep a little longer."

"Okay, but I will still use the fifth blood money."

Xia De said that he believed that he did not feel any curse after using blood money, which was most likely the reason for the existence of the "divine afterglow".

Miss Anat did not refuse Shade. She waited until the images on the front and back of the blood money appeared before taking it from him.

After the purple light disappeared from his eyes, the slightly tired fortune teller gave the answer:

“There is only so much information you can get from a piece of blood money.

First of all, there is the situation of the Silver-Eyed Man. His current power is only at the sixth level. Because he was seriously injured and worried about losing control of the relics, he does not hold many relics. The most dangerous thing is the eyes for which he is famous. Those eyes are sage-level magic eyes. I can't give you specific information. ”

"I know this."

Miss Bayas said, she took a deep breath to suppress her anger:

"The team I was in when I was in the first ring was destroyed because of the pair of magic eyes. The name of the magic eyes is [greedy silver], and both eyes are magic eyes at the same time. The specific effect is actively activated, and activation of the magic eyes requires preparation time, and the effect of the magic eye cannot be maintained for a long time. During the effect, the person stared at by the eye will irreversibly turn into a pure silver statue unless the transformed part of the body is cut off immediately... Irreversible."

"How to fight?"

Xia De asked.

"After that incident, the church specifically produced a batch of amulet spells that could temporarily resist the effects of the evil eye. But they were relics after all. The spells could resist for up to three seconds and could only take effect once."

"Three seconds is enough."

Miss Anat said.

"Okay, I'll be responsible for the spell, and I won't let him go this time."

Miss Bayas took several deep breaths before suppressing her emotions.

Miss Anat continued:

"The passage leading to the deepest part of the ruins is blocked by three extremely dangerous relics. The one closest to the exit is the Keeper-level relic [Thousand-Eyed Gargoyle No. 3765], which is the fourth It is a mutated relic of an ancient alchemy product. It has the manufacturing number 3765 engraved on its surface. It has the dual properties of stone and flesh. It is extremely powerful in combat and is proficient in melee combat and conjuration abilities. After killing the enemy, it will take away their eyes and place them in it. On his own body, he has a field of vision with almost no blind spots."

"Is it necessary to fight head-on? How many levels of warlock are gargoyles equivalent to?"

Miss Bayas asked.

"No, if it can only be solved by fighting head-on, [Mercury Blood] cannot continue to occupy the ruins. Paying three pairs of living eyes each time can make the gargoyles give up attacking living people in a short time. It must be Eyes of a living person cut out on the spot."

But [Mercury Blood] can do this with fear, but the three of Sha De cannot.

"What about paying for the magic eye?"

Xia De asked with a frown.

Miss Anat knew what happened on Monday from the study meeting and also understood Shade’s plan:

"Two magic eyes can keep it quiet for 48 hours, but the magic eyes will enhance the power of [Thousand-Eyed Gargoyle No. 3765]. This relic is a rare relic that can continuously enhance its own power. ”

"Ignore this for now, I have a magic eye in my hand, but I need another one. Can any of you find it?"

Xia De asked, not caring how precious what he gave was.

Miss Bayas raised her hand:

"Coincidentally, last week I encountered an incident where the magic eye was out of control. I haven't been able to sell that eye yet. I will solve the problem of the second magic eye."

Miss Anat nodded:

"The second relic, the Keeper-level relic [Mirror Behind], is ineffective against ordinary people. It is a rare offensive relic that is effective against the 'other self' of ring warlocks. It is effective against ring warlocks below the seventh level. The 'other self' has an almost irreparable harm effect, which is very terrible, and once the 'other self' is injured, we ourselves will also be seriously harmed."

Shad heard laughter, and the woman chuckled in his ear. He was familiar with this laughter.

"Can you?"

[I am you, the afterglow of divinity strengthens you and strengthens me. 】

"No need to say it, I will solve this."

Xia De raised his hand to signal.

Both ladies looked at him suspiciously, and Miss Anat reminded:

"Detective, this is no joke. That mirror can even hurt a 13th-level warlock. You can imagine its danger as much as possible. If it weren't for the simple containment conditions, the classification of this thing would definitely be more than just Most sage-level relics may not be more dangerous than this."

"It's okay, I'm fine."

"But even if there is no problem, it means that detective you have to follow us deep into the ruins."

Miss Bayas said worriedly:

"No one knows the situation of that ruins. Miss Anat's divination cannot see any corner. Not to mention, once Mercury Blood discovers our invasion, someone will definitely enter the ruins in a short time. Intercept us."

"But the action won't be completely safe, right?"

Xia De asked, there is [God's Gift Box] in the ruins, and the gift box contains the gift given to him by the old **** [Creator of Innocence], and that box cannot leave the ruins, so he will do whatever he can on this trip. Also going to:

"You don't have to worry that I will drag you down. When the time comes, maybe I will be the strongest among us."

Seeing what he said, Miss Anat and Miss Bayas did not continue to object.

"Then the last relic, this one is only of clerical level, [Maze Candle]. This is not the guardian of the relic itself, but was placed there by the Silver Eyed One. After being lit, a large-scale hallucination will be formed in the closed space. Maze, you need to get out of the maze to extinguish the candle."

Miss Anat paused to give them a chance to think. Then before the other two people spoke, they shook their heads and said:

"You don't have to worry about this. I still have some respect in the Prophet Association. You can borrow a compass-shaped relic. When the time comes to break into the ruins, I will deal with this candle."

"I also have some friends in the church, and the church ring magicians themselves can also apply to the church for the use of relics. I can also get some good things by then."

Miss Bayas also said.

Xia De doesn’t know many people, but there is one person who is definitely not stingy:

"I also have a friend. She really wants the body of the silver-eyed person to use as fishing bait. I can ask her for help. Even if she doesn't agree to take action directly, she won't be stingy in providing me with some help."

He is talking about Miss Carina. The Thirteen Ring Warlock of the Church of the Sun is now in Tobesk. She probably won’t take action directly, but the duchess definitely has a lot of good things in her hands.
