The Whispering Verses Chapter 672: Yellow Moon, Red Dragon and Glasses
Chapter 672 Yellow Moon, Red Dragon and Glasses
This yellow-haired witch who looks like she is only 22 or 23 years old is the lady who assisted Miss Mana Feliana in performing the ritual to call the old **** [Yahua Gate] in the Forest of Thousand Trees. . At the same time, she is also Miss Feliana's first-generation student and the first future librarian of St. Byrons, which has not yet been established.
After 22 years, from the Forest of Thousand Trees in the Western Continent to the Valley of Death in the Central Continent, Shade met the witch again. This was also the first time that he met the same person consecutively in the past, and Miss Olanold, who was not supposed to have his memory, obviously also remembered Shad Hamilton.
"Teacher, who is this? Is he a man?"
The girl with crimson hair asked cautiously. Only then did Shade notice that the tail behind her was actually a tail, and it was not his mistake. It was a very thick and heavy tail, with dark red traces on the surface that looked like scales on a lizard, and these scales seemed to belong to a powerful alien creature.
"Fiona, this is an old acquaintance of Teacher Fiona and I, Mr. Shade Hamilton."
The half-elf witch came back to her senses, reached out and took Shade's extended hand, and then introduced it to her students.
"Shad, this is Fiona Drago, my student. Don't be surprised by her physical characteristics. She is a mixed-blood dragon, and can even be regarded as a bloodline of the red dragon royal family."
She introduced to Sha De again, and the red-haired girl nodded to Sha De with some restraint:
"Hello, um, sir?"
She hasn't figured out Shad's gender yet.
Finally, the witch wearing round glasses who looked at them curiously was introduced. The latter looked up and down at Shade with an inquiring expression. Among the three, she looked the most scholarly:
"This is Becky Samuel, an eleventh-level witch from Zalas Academy, and our companion in this adventure."
"Zaras Academy?"
Shad showed an expression of sudden realization and quickly recalled the origins of Zarath Academy of Literature, one of the three major thaumaturgy academies. . To be precise, Zarath has a much longer history than St. Byrons. The establishment of St. Byrons was started from scratch by the legendary thirteen-ring warlock Miss Myrna Feliana, while Zarath Literary Academy It originated from the witch academic organization [Zarath Society] in the Fifth Age. The information about Zarath Academy, just like the information about Miss Myrna Feliana, only has a vague name.
It is a coincidence that the three major thaumaturgy academies were established at almost the same time. In other words, this witch wearing round glasses is likely to be one of the founders of Zarath Academy of Literature in the future.
"Hello."
Xia De nodded politely. Although the other party did not understand what Xia De said, he understood that it was a greeting, so he nodded to him:
"Hello, sir."
This witch is very clear about Shade’s gender:
"Would you mind introducing your origin? I'm very curious about this."
As she spoke, she tried to catch Shade's wrist with her hands. This seemed to be the habit of witches, but Becky Samuel did not succeed. Miss Nord aborted it, and the latter said with some annoyance:
"Becky, he is a friend of Teacher Feliana and I, and he is here to help us now. If you have any questions, you can ask Teacher Feliana after we get back safely."
Miss Olanode blocked the mouth of the witch of Zaras with one sentence, and then motioned for everyone to change places to talk.
So the group of four people returned to the strong bonfire from the entrance of the ruins. Miss Olanode is sitting facing the door. On the left is her student with dragon blood, and on the right is the witch of Zarath. Shade is sitting with her back to the door. Miss Olanode opposite.
In order to make everyone here understand what Shad said, the witch of Zaras, Becky Samuel, rummaged through the pile of books around her for a long time and found a book "Language" Mystery". After chanting a curse in a low voice, he tore a page from the book, burned it to ashes in the stone bowl beside him, and then soaked it in water and gave it to the other two witches.
"Xia De, it's been 22 years since we last parted, right?"
As expected, Miss Olanold still remembered what happened in the Forest of Thousand Trees. Under the firelight, she looked nostalgic:
"Teacher has always remembered you. It was only after I was promoted to the thirteenth level some time ago that I fully recalled what happened back then. Teacher and I often talk about you. If I am not wrong, you appear here again, and above Same thing again, here to help us.”
"Yes."
Xia De nodded, now is not the time to reminisce about the past:
"So, what are you doing here? I can only stay for thirty minutes."
"Sir, for this library."
There was no need for Miss Olanold to answer, and the witch of Zalas beside her spoke:
"The location we are currently in is called the Valley of Death. It is covered with heavy snow all year round, and it is almost impossible to escape once you enter. This is a place where time and space are confused, and countless lost and forbidden ancient ruins are located inside the valley. The current location is the Gaddis Library, which even contains precious knowledge and documents passed down from the First Age. Both Zarath Academy and Miss Feliana want to obtain it from here. Some information, so we were sent here.”
Shad nodded. This incident was described by [Father of the Infinite Tree] as "the destruction of the Cadiz Library. In other words, the exploration of the three witches will lead to this building being even worse than the current Fifth Age." The long-lasting library will completely collapse."
But he still had questions. Looking at the witch across from the fire, he asked cautiously:
"Is your action this time related to the gods?"
"Sorry, what does this mean?"
Miss Olanold asked curiously.
"Do you know."
Xia De subconsciously lowered his voice, and wondered whether this time, there would be a situation where the gods have come, but they just hide their presence:
".The great one - the gray-robed sage?"
In this era, the old gods have not yet left, so they cannot be called "old gods".
Miss Olanode and the witch with round glasses from Zalas looked at each other. The light of the bonfire dyed their two extremely beautiful faces red and illuminated their two pairs of smart eyes. The charm of the witches is unmatched by ordinary people. Even if they are in a bad state, and even Zarath's witch's hair is messy, they are still real beautiful girls.
Miss Becky Samuel, wearing round glasses, replied:
"The **** [Grey Robe Sage], also known as the guardian of the library, can often see his shrine in large libraries. But the purpose of our trip is just to collect the knowledge in the library. No. Could it be that there is also a shrine of the [Grey-robed Sage] in the ruins of this library?"
Shade doesn’t know this, but since the father of the Infinite Tree asked Shade to help the **** collect knowledge, then even if the **** does not come in person, there must at least be an altar, a shrine, a statue, and a holy symbol. Class, it is convenient for Shade to make sacrifices.
"Teacher, when we explored the library for the seventh time two weeks ago, I saw a shrine very close to here, but I didn't pay attention to who it belonged to."
The red dragon witch whispered, still kneeling in front of the flames, with the thick tail behind her wrapped around her waist. Seeing everyone looking at her across the firelight, they rummaged around in the small backpack beside them in a panic and found a hand-drawn sketch of the library ruins, which marked the parts they had explored.
The location of the shrine is indeed very close. Judging from the map, it is only separated by three large rooms from the entrance to the library where it is currently located.
"If there is a shrine, that will be easy."
Xia De nodded:
"But what's wrong with you guys? It seems like you're not in very good shape, and you can't get out again this time?"
"Did you see the blizzard outside?"
Miss Olanold pointed to the door:
“It snows all year round in the Deadly Valley, but it is divided into different stages, namely light snow, black snow, red blood and blizzard.
In the light snow stage, except for the extremely cold weather, there is no other impact; black snow will revive the undead in the entire valley, and the power of all living people will be greatly suppressed, and those who are contaminated by black snow will die immediately; red snow is like Appearing together with the abnormal red moon, darkness will cover the valley, and some weird humanoid creatures will visit here, maybe humanoid relics, maybe evil spirits or something weirder; during the blizzard stage, even if you do nothing, Physical strength and spiritual energy will also disappear little by little, and the recovery of both will completely stop. Most of the people who froze to death here died in the blizzard. ”
"Is the recovery of spiritual and physical strength completely stagnant?"
Xia De didn’t realize this because he had just arrived and had only trekked a short distance outside. At this time, he knew that the witches were all a little weak, so he put on the moonstone ring as a spell-casting medium and activated his own thaumaturgy:
"Silent Moonlight!"
Above the bonfire, an unusually illusory silver full moon appeared, and the cold moonlight shone on the four people. The witches immediately groaned softly, and judging from their expressions, they finally breathed a sigh of relief.
"The duration of the four different stages is completely irregular. After we entered the light snow stage, we only explored for more than a week before encountering black snow. During this period, we found part of the text we wanted to take away."
Miss Olanold pointed to the piles of books next to Miss Becky Samuel of Zalas:
"But before leaving, we encountered a two-week-long blizzard. No one can leave the Dead Valley in the blizzard, we can only wait."
"The situation is better now. Although the effect of your spell is not very obvious, at least the power is no longer lost, but is recovering bit by bit."
The witch of Zaras also said, looking up at the moon above the bonfire:
"This is obviously not the power of a witch. It is like magic, but not like magic. What is this."
"After we go out, you can ask Teacher Feliana yourself."
Miss Olanold interrupted her again.
"I can only stay for half an hour, so I can't keep you recovering."
Shad pointed this out and then asked:
"Can you leave the Valley of Death now?"
"If it is the light snow stage now, we can. Black Snow and Red Blood must not leave the range of the bonfire. In the blizzard stage, unless we recover more than half of our strength, our physical strength will not be enough to support us leaving the protection of this bonfire."
"That's it"
So this time we not only need to help the **** who has not yet appeared to collect knowledge, but also find a way to let the witches leave safely:
"Miss Olanode, please give me a list. The next time I come here, I will bring you some missing things, so that you can at least make your life here better. In addition, I want to see that person. A shrine."
"Okay."
The yellow-haired witch across from the fire smiled:
"Although there is no shortage of food and water, daily necessities still need new ones. I have never used a comb for more than two weeks."
The lives of the top witches of the fifth era are truly unimaginable. Now Shade is very worried about what will be on the list that will be given to him later.
