Chapter 612 The Third Form
Staggering out of the white mist door, he gasped and looked at the ancient stone door standing in front of him. The terrible wind of death blowing from the stone door suddenly woke up Shade:
"No! It's going to be dawn soon!"
Without any time to think, he bent down and picked up his belongings from the ground. After confirming that nothing was left behind, he immediately rushed out along the passage.
Inside the church, he did not encounter any obstruction, and even the soul of the church ring warlock at the door of the church, with his hands on his chest, congratulated him on successfully rescuing his companions.
Running out of the church onto the street filled with white mist, Shade stopped before taking a few steps.
In reality, the Natural Church and the Church of the Dawn are both on Santa Carla Avenue, but they are located at both ends of the street. At this time, on the narrow Santa Carla Avenue, two figures of evil spirits were patrolling in the strange fog, and then they suddenly noticed Shade at this time.
"Damn, why are there so many evil spirits? Wait, isn't it because I used the mysterious lock behind the door just now, and there is feedback in the narrow room and in reality?"
Without any time to think, those evil spirits with terrifying faces had already swept over the white mist and rushed over silently. They almost blended into the white mist, and it was like a wave of mist and a wave of ghosts rushing in together.
If they were in the outside world, the burst of silver moon light or even Feliana's witch's light could seriously injure them all, but in order not to attract more attention, Shade could not do this.
"There are too many, and we cannot use [Silver Moon Great Sword] for close combat. There is not enough time."
Thinking in his mind, he took a step back and drew a horizontal line with his right hand in front of him. Silver light traces parallel to the ground immediately flew out, but they only pushed back the tall man at the front who was like being cut in half. His upper body and lower body could be separated, so he could attack alone, as well as the tall man who was holding his own head and dragging several people behind him. A noble evil spirit with a hundred heads.
"The instant [Silver Moon Slash] is not powerful enough."
Shad continued to retreat while crossing his arms in front of him. The trace of light stayed in the air. Shade bent down slightly, then punched forward suddenly. Cross light marks flew out immediately, but because the casting time was too long, all the evil spirits easily dodged the blow.
"It seems that the power is enough, but the speed is not fast enough."
[What do you want to do? Use mind blast to repel an entire street of evil spirits with one punch? 】
"She" asked with a chuckle.
In the real world, Shade's power is not that strong, but in a world like Hazama that highlights the power of the soul, it is indeed possible for him to use up 80% of his current soul. But there is still a long way to go, and Shade cannot fall into the dilemma of lack of strength again.
"If you want to be fast and ruthless, I have another trick."
Seeing that the terrifying spirit was approaching, Shade closed his eyes, took a deep breath and meditated on the silver moon in his mind, and at the same time tried to grasp the further influence on the moon when he drank the "moon wine". Enlightenment.
Stop retreating, Shade opens his arms——
Bah!
Stretch your arms straight in front of you and slam your hands together:
"Moonlight——"
The moment I opened my eyes, countless pairs of pale arms were already rushing to reach out to Sha De's head from the white mist in front of me:
"--Cut!"
The two hands suddenly separated towards the upper left and lower right respectively, and as the hands separated, a bright arc of light was pulled out between the palms. Due to the movement trajectory of the palm, the light mark protruded in the middle and the tail end was backward. It almost flew out the moment the arms were fully opened.
The white mist left a long-lasting afterimage. Almost at the next moment, the arc of light cut all the evil spirits piled in front of it into two pieces, and then flew into the depths of the white mist. The incision of the spirit body shone with bright moonlight, and after a second of silence, the soul's "last words" sounded one after another:
"If I can get home in time"
"I want to live another hundred years."
"Actually, I didn't lose, it was him who lost."
"Forgive me"
"The fear under the ground is unimaginable to mortals."
While this chaotic sound sounded, Shade looked at his hand with a smile:
"At the first level, I learned [Moonlight Slash], which is weak in power but does not take time to cast. At the second level, I learned to let the light mark stop and then strike out. It has strong destructive power but takes a long time to cast. At the third level, I I have also mastered the method of drawing arcs of light with two palms. The power is medium and the casting time is medium. Perhaps, this magical technique is the most suitable for me if it has one change per ring, even if it is not as essential as [Echo of Blood]. This thaumaturgy is enough for me."
【Not enough time. 】
"Oh! Let's go!"
The sky in [The Narrow Room of Life and Death] was covered by a strange white mist, and the stars, sun and moon could not be seen. But at this time, the city of Fort Midhill has reached the last moment before dawn. Shade used [Ragrai's Leap] and [Frog's Leap] to move forward quickly, crushing countless evil spirits along the way. When he entered the courtyard of Russell Manor, there was only the last half-hour before dawn. minute.
"There's still time, there's still time!"
The arrival of the dawn of the material world seems to be able to suppress the [narrow space between life and death]. The white fog is thinning, allowing much improved visibility.
Shad didn't even have time to walk through the main entrance. He directly smashed through the corridor window of the dilapidated manor and ran forward along the corridor.
When he turned into the corridor at the deepest part of the manor, due to the time mismatch between the two spaces, there was clearly half a minute left just now, but now there was less than five seconds left.
With a fierce dash, he crashed directly into the rotten wooden door deep in the corridor. Behind the door was the normal world. But even if it can span space, time in the normal world still passes quickly.
Xia De crossed ten meters in one step, and his hand was about to touch the wooden door, but it seemed that it was too late.
"There is no other way but to use Raglay's jump twice in a row!"
This is very likely to attract those terrible things that live in the cracks of space, but Shade can't control so much at this time.
However, before he could cross space again, the closed rotten wooden door opened automatically, and then an old hand stretched out like stretched plasticine and grabbed Shade. ’s right hand, and then with a fierce tug, at the last moment, Shade was pulled from a position 15 feet away from the wooden door directly into the door that connected the two worlds.
The thin burning thread on his right hand was completely turned into ashes, and the last sparks fluttered in the deserted corridor.
"Oh!"
Shad, who had passed through the door, had already fallen heavily into the corridor of Russell Manor, and rolled several times to offset the huge momentum. Looking up, there was no one in front of him. The interior of Russell Manor had returned to normal. As for the black vortex on the wall behind him that connected to the "Challenge of Life and Death", it has also disappeared.
"Successful."
Hold on to the wall and stand up slowly, feeling tired from not sleeping all night. Returning to reality, the numb body returned to normal perception. At the same time as the warmth emerged, Shade also felt that he was really tired.
Not only did he not sleep all night, he actually stepped into death and faced the blood-sucking saint again. Even if everything is over, after the tense nerves relax, the mental pressure cannot be relieved like this.
Yawning and resisting sleepiness, I walked out of the manor house, wanting to thank Sister Devlin and the [Spiritual Order] for their help. At this time, the bonfire in the courtyard had been extinguished under the eastern sky, leaving only extremely weak embers still radiating heat on the blackened wood.
The nuns and monks from the order are also pouring into the building, preparing to clean up the traces of rituals inside the building. Sister Devlin was still standing in front of the bonfire, but there was an old woman beside her.
She has silver hair, but her face is still healthy. Although the wrinkles on her face cannot be concealed, her eyes are still so bright.
Wearing a very old style black skirt, like a half-century-old style, and a black wide-brimmed hat on her head, with huge white artificial flowers on the hat.
Xia De suddenly stopped at the door of the mansion, and then put his hand into his right pocket. Having just returned from the past, he had no time to put the pendant around his neck, so he stuffed it directly into his pocket.
For this reason, his skin was not directly attached to the pendant that could sense the witch. It wasn't until this moment, when the heat was strong enough to affect his waist through his coat and shirt, that he realized who the old woman standing in front of him was.
The other party nodded and smiled at him, with a kind expression on his face, and he didn't look malicious. Shade hesitated for a moment, then continued to move forward, passing by the blind nuns of the order, and came to the gray-haired Sister Devlin and the old witch:
"Sister Devlin, I had some accidents inside, but the priests have rescued me. Not only the priests, but most of the people who disappeared this fall, they should be scattered in the Sikal Mountains now. Someone helped We, a people with wings, I think there should be strange phenomena in the Sikar Mountain area in the real world."
After reporting the "facts" he had fabricated to the nun in detail, Shade bowed slightly to the old woman:
"Hello, Ms. Cassandra, thank you for giving me a hand just now."
The hand that pulled Shad out of the [Challenge of Life and Death] should belong to this witch.
"Good morning, Mr. Hamilton."
The witch directly called out the stranger’s surname in this world, but the nun on the side didn’t respond at all.
The old man looked at Sha De very kindly:
"You are right, something did happen just now. I think someone should have used the mystery lock deep in the narrow room, but it also helped you. It seems that you are really lucky.
Although she is old, you can still see from the details of her face what kind of grace she had when she was young:
"Actually, before I met you, I still had some doubts about what Carina said."
"Miss Carina asked you to help me?"
Xia De asked. He could see that the witch in front of him didn't seem to be hostile to him.
"Oh, yes. Yesterday Devlin told me that Carina's friends came to her for help, and even had to enter the narrow space of life and death personally. It happened that I met Carina in the parliament last night, and we talked to her Talking about this."
Shade could imagine the Duchess's surprise and shock at that time. Shade did not tell her before taking action because Miss Carina would definitely not agree to him doing such a thing. After all, the red-haired witch doesn't care whether Priest August lives or dies.
"I heard rumors some time ago that the duchess of Saladir danced with a lucky man at the queen's birthday party in Tobesk. At that time, I thought it was her who asked her maid to I pretended to be a man to cover up some facts and put down bad rumors, but I didn’t expect it to be true.”
