The Whispering Verses Chapter 2522: New relics
Chapter 2521 New Relics
In short, no matter how unhappy Carina is, life must go on. The Duchess seemed to have nothing to do in the morning, but she was still taken away by Lesia when she left, telling her not to do anything that would damage the reputation of the Cavendish family in broad daylight.
She usually does this kind of thing at night.
Luvia also left with them. Today is Wednesday, and she also has to go to work at the Prophet Association. So in the originally bustling house, only Shade and little Mia were left.
Tifa had already put away the breakfast dishes with the maids before she left, and Shade didn't have any housework to do. So after returning to the second floor from the foyer, he went to the bedroom in Room 2 where Miss Feliana lived these days.
The bedroom has also been tidied up, and the quilt is spread flat on the bed, bathed in the morning sunshine together with the desk.
Shade has never taken the initiative to enter this room in the past two days, and the room now looks like it has never been used.
He sat down on the bed facing the window, touched the cat for a while and then stood up. He put little Mia on the windowsill to bask in the sun, and he lifted the quilt, intending to fold it and put it away in the cabinet.
Miss Feliana must have used thaumaturgy to clean it. The quilt and pillows are very new.
[Don’t you want to collect this bedding set? 】
"She" asked in Shade's ear with a smile, but Shade ignored it. Just after folding the quilt and picking up the pillows to put them together, a letter appeared under the pillow.
"Oh?"
There was nothing written on the white envelope. After opening the envelope, there was only a folded piece of letter paper inside. There is also no text on the white letter paper, but there is a clear red lipstick printed on the folded top.
The lip lines are quite clear, and the faint red color is not clear to Xade. He only knew that he was very happy at this moment. After putting away the letter, he went to the window and opened it, letting the warm summer breeze blow into the room.
Today's weather is rare in Tobesk, just like Shade's mood at this time.
After writing a letter to Miss Danister and informing Miss Feliana and Fiona of their departure, Shade took little Mia out.
Miss Daniste should talk to him about the "Teacher's Clues" soon, and although Shade listened to the two witches talking about their visit experience, from Miss Daniste's perspective, this matter should It will be more interesting.
As for going out with little Mia, of course it's not because Shade and Cat can't stand the empty "lonely" atmosphere at home, but because he still has things to do.
Soon, we arrived at Old John’s **** shop in a carriage. As the doorbell rang, the old man reading the newspaper behind the counter raised his head, and then smiled at Shade:
"Look who this is, I didn't expect a busy man to come to my place."
"The matter in Yuewan is over, what else do I need to do?"
Xia De also said with a smile, put the cat on the counter, looked at the familiar furnishings of the **** shop and sighed:
"Dad John, I really envy you such a leisurely life."
A few weeks ago, in order to find the [Star Sword Stone], Shade asked Old John for help, and therefore knew that the relic was in the hands of Mr. Chekov who opened a second-hand bookstore in Yuewan City, so Old John knew that Shade was in Yuewan City Activity.
"I don't know if you are praising me or sarcastic."
The old man put down the newspaper to prepare hot tea for Shade, but he did not ask anything about Moon Bay or even the War of Gods:
"Are you buying information or relics this time?"
"Relics, I have said before that I have long been acquiring special coins and relics that can absorb energy, spirits and other entities or non-entities and transfer them to the user. Do you have the goods now?"
The [Profane Cross] that followed Shade for more than half a year has been consumed in Moon Bay. It was given to him by Granny Cassandra. Although it is unlikely that he will encounter an evil **** again immediately, he cannot prepare for such a thing before it happens.
Old John also remembers Shard’s acquisition commission:
"Of course there are goods, don't underestimate my channels. However, the relics this time are only poet-level. Although they meet your conditions, I don't know if you are satisfied."
He quickly retrieved the relic. The relic this time was also not big. In other words, if you didn't look down, it would be hard to even see the thin silver needle embedded in the alloy.
"The containment condition is to place it in this special iron alloy. The poet-level relic [Renyi's injection needle], yes, this is not a sewing needle but a syringe needle.
When using it, you need to pierce any end into your own body, and then use it to pierce other people's bodies. Remember, don’t get the order wrong, otherwise it won’t be you sucking others, but others sucking you. ”
The old man motioned to Shade to take out the thin silver needle and have a look:
"Of course, because it is only a poet-level relic, its use is very limited. The hardness of this needle is very low, and ordinary [Petrified Skin] can easily defend against its attack. And it can only absorb spirit, The conversion efficiency is also surprisingly low.
Because spirit itself is an aggregate of energy, information and various things, it has characteristics that are immeasurable and unobservable. Therefore, I cannot give you the exact conversion efficiency, but it should be between one tenth and fifteenth. Between.
In other words, if you use this to absorb other people's spirits, absorbing a spirit that can release ten fireballs will almost allow you to obtain a spirit that is enough to release one fireball. ”
"How is the absorption speed?"
Xia De asked again, and Old John shook his head regretfully:
“The longer the piercing time is, the more spirit will be absorbed, which means that you need to keep the acupuncture action to do this. Its absorption efficiency is extremely slow, and it’s hard to describe the specifics. In short, this It’s not a relic for you to use in actual combat situations.”
"So its greatest function is actually to share souls among companions in a resting state, right?"
For example, in special areas such as the "Golden Sand Sea" where it is difficult to recover the spirit, Shade can use this relic to share his abundant spirit with his companions. Of course, if you can carry the relic, you can actually use [Perfume of Desire] Vials] are more efficient.
"Yes, this is what it does. The low conversion efficiency and absorption efficiency are indeed shortcomings, but at least as a poet-level relic, it is safe enough. But I must remind you, if this relic is extremely poor in spiritual energy, If used by ring warlocks or ordinary people, what they absorb is life force."
"What are the negative characteristics?"
Shad is very interested in this relic.
"Sharing extreme emotions and body-related curses. Note that it is not sharing, but sharing. After all, we are poets, and the side effects are not big."
"Does this relic meet my needs?"
Xia De asked in his heart.
[Yes. 】
So Shade carefully took out the thin silver needle from the alloy. If this relic fell on the ground, it would be very troublesome to find it with just your eyes. And no matter how slender the relic was, when Shade's fingers touched it, he still touched extremely tiny carvings on the surface of the silver needle——
[Noble people know how to share, but they should also be wary of human greed. 】
"Father John, please make an offer. For such a low-level relic, general cash transactions are sufficient, right?"
"Of course. However, this relic can share souls and is useful to a certain extent, so the price is on the high side, 13 pounds."
Xia De didn't even negotiate the price this time. After putting the relic back, he went straight to his wallet.
But the old man behind the counter told him not to be so anxious, and he said with a smile:
"I also have a deal to make with you. If the deal is concluded, maybe I will give you money in the end."
"What, Dad John, what do you want to buy from me? Let me state in advance that little Mia is not for sale."
Xia De stroked the cat and joked, and the old man behind the counter smiled and shook his head:
"I know you were in Yuewan some time ago, so I want to buy some information about Yuewan."
"What kind of information is it specifically?"
Shad asked again, so Old John put the teacup in front of him and considered it for a moment:
"I would like to know if the two distinguished guests from afar are still with us?"
"I've gone back."
Old John nodded in surprise, not surprised that they had left, but surprised that Shade actually spoke so happily:
"So, can the 'hero' who invited three unexpected guests to Yuewan last Sunday be able to invite unexpected guests to our place at any time like he did then? What?"
Xia De thought for a moment:
"I don't know much, but I think it shouldn't be possible. After all, what happened to Yuewan this time was also an accident. If the righteous gods can appear, there is no need to invite those dangerous guests."
Old John nodded clearly and praised Shade:
"I'm not against that hero using this method. Even though I'm older, I'm a very open-minded person. As long as he can control the power, he can use any power. Hiding The purpose of our society is to inherit civilization, and we don’t mind using any means to do this.”
“But that’s not what everyone else thinks, right?”
Xia De asked with a smile.
"Don't worry about this. As long as the hero is strong enough and can solve such big troubles every time, people will understand even if he invites more guests next time. Besides, do you think After what happened, who else in the material world would dare to provoke him casually?"
The old man who belonged to the [Guiding Light Hermitage] looked at Shade:
"Some time ago, you were probably too busy entertaining your Duke at home and had no time to go to the black market to inquire about the new situation. Now people have recognized that the 'God Caller' is the strongest ring warlock in the material world of this era, proficient in the moon, With the power of time and summons, there are even rumors that the chosen one of light and justice who has never shown up is actually his subordinate."
Xia De smiled and did not comment on this sentence. He would not talk about the coroner in Moon Bay with anyone.
