The Whispering Verses Chapter 28: The remnants of the old gods

In a very safe situation, after obtaining information that had nothing to do with him, Shade was satisfied and planned to turn around and leave, and planned to tell Dr. Schneider what he had seen today.

But at this moment, the woman’s elegant whispering voice sounded in my ears again:

[You have come into contact with ‘Enlightenment’. 】

He stopped and frowned. The [Enlightenment] element is related to civilization, but strong traces of thaumaturgy and spells may also lead to its appearance, but here...

Standing in the narrow space between the pipe and the wall, because it is a dead end, there is not much garbage, but there is more animal feces.

Shad carefully looked at the wall in front of him. The wall was almost covered with chalk and paint with all kinds of dirty words and shapes representing private organs. In addition, there were many strange things that he didn't want to imagine. trace.

His only two spiritual runes do not have the effect of enhancing eyesight for the time being, but what really sets him apart from ordinary people is his ability to decipher almost all words.

Below the sentence that insulted the gods, above Shade's waist, some strange patterns were caught by the young detective's eyes. He regarded them as words, and then he got the meaning and pronunciation of those words:

"Appear."

The ancient language used six syllables to express such a simple meaning.

In the thin mist, a white light flashed in front of Sha De. He stepped back, but still positioned himself between the gap between the pipe and the wall.

The curious cat was awakened by the white light, and the person holding it saw a dilapidated stone statue rising slowly from the ground.

Its base is square, and the statue is only half the height of Shade. It is an image of a noble man with bat wings and a cloak.

Xia De closed his eyes and let blood and tears overflow from under his eyelids. He covered the cat's eyes, turned around quickly, and heard the murmur in his ears. It was a murmur of joy, reciting a story he had never told:

[You have come into contact with the remnants of the old **** "Vampire Duke Loel". 】

[The Old God born from the original filthy blood?, thirsty for blood, and driven crazy by blood. In the dusk of the old days, the curse of blood was used to develop a family, and the soul was blinded by the curse of blood, roaring in the depths of the castle in the dark night. 】

[You listened to the story of the old **** "Vampire Duke Loel", and you learned one of the miracles of the old **** "Vampire Duke Loel". 】

"Can spiritual runes be engraved?"

After a moment, it was confirmed that there was only this information. Shade walked out of the surprise and asked in a low voice full of expectation. The headache caused by the close contact with the statue of the old **** was relieved.

Then, Shade heard the woman’s voice in his heart chuckle:

[You have obtained the spell, Echo of Blood. You haven't gotten enough of this god's story yet, outsider. Miracles are not so easy to come by. 】

The whispering voice in his heart fell silent, and the statue of the old **** conveyed new power to Shade. The life ring hidden behind the soul rotates, absorbing slight golden elements, allowing the brass ring to be stained with gold particles, and condenses the spirit that belongs to the soul.

Shad's right eye suddenly turned blood red, and he gained the power to see the undetectable remaining blood stains.

After fully understanding what happened at this moment, Shade did not check the power he had obtained first, but first checked the cat in his arms.

Although the cat and Shade saw the whole process of the appearance of the old **** statue, fortunately, the cat's sight was attracted by the scattered white light at that time, so it did not observe the old **** statue for the first time like Shade. All appearances. Therefore, apart from being a little depressed, "Little Mia" did not suffer a mental shock like Shade.

As for the power that Shade has gained, to put it simply, his right eye can now see the imperceptible blood stains remaining in the air and on the surface of objects when the spell is actively activated.

This ability can also be achieved in Shade's world through certain technological means. But when he uses the spell, he doesn't need instruments, he only needs to open his eyes, and as long as there is blood residue, no matter how weak it is, he can see it.

Although this is not a powerful ability, it unexpectedly matches Shade's detective career very well.

Shad has never heard of the name of the old **** "Vampire Duke Loel". In fact, he has never heard of the name of any old **** except the "Father of the Infinite Tree".

The story of this old **** makes him sound less like a benevolent god. This judgment was completely correct, so after obtaining the spell and story, the voice in his head also reminded Shade that he was coming into contact with the silver element [blasphemy], which is an element only possessed by evil gods.

But I don’t know if it’s because he doesn’t have a deep sense of the [blasphemy] of this old god, or maybe the power of this stone statue with a base is more towards [miracle], Shade didn’t gain anything from [blasphemy] .

But the gains from incantations are also very good. Thaumaturgy requires corresponding spiritual runes to be used, while incantation does not require spiritual runes. It is a common occult ability for ring warlocks. Because they are "universal", the effects of spells are often not as good as thaumaturgy, but in fact some spells also have usage restrictions.

Judging from the doctor's notes, spells obtained through contact with the remnants of the old gods usually cannot be learned through other means.

So, Shade came up with a rare spell for nothing, but unfortunately the effect was not very obvious.

Now that you have received the benefits, the next step is of course to leave immediately.

Shad could not take away the statue of the old god, and he did not even dare to touch it directly with his skin. The existence of the stone statue is obviously related to Mrs. Lasoya, and the statue of the old **** cannot exist naturally in the city. The other party must have brought it to this alley to hide it.

Bringing a statue of an evil **** into the city like this is a serious illegal act, so Shade finally judged that Mrs. Lasoya was not a good person.

So he read the six syllables of the ancient text meaning "appearance" in reverse order, causing the statue of the evil **** to slowly enter the ground again.

Then he carefully slipped out of the alley, not even thinking about saving money, and boarded the carriage directly at the next intersection. Without any hesitation, he took the cat with him towards Dr. Schneider's psychological clinic in the east district of Tobesk City. Set off.

Unfortunately, Dr. Bill Schneider was not in the clinic.

People in the clinic also knew Shade, who was invited by the doctor yesterday, so Dr. Clay, who was in charge of receiving him, informed Dr. Schneider's whereabouts.

The wife and daughter of an unnamed count in this city have recently suffered from bulimia. The count's personal doctor believed that this was a psychological problem, so he specially invited Dr. Schneider to diagnose and treat it. Dr. Schneider will spend the night at the Count's manor outside the city and will not be back today, at least.

As for the address of the manor and the Earl's surname, in order to protect the privacy of the patients, Shade cannot be told.

"But Mr. Hamilton, you can leave a note for Bill and he will see it when he comes back."

Dr. Clay said in a friendly manner, but refused to reveal the location of the Earl's manor.
