The Whispering Verses Chapter 744: A fierce battle on the ice
Chapter 744 Fierce Fight on the Ice
The ring warlocks of the Church of the Sun, who had an encounter with the clown on the shore, deliberately moved the battle venue to the ice and gradually approached the members of the [Truth Society]. Of course, the Ring Warlocks of the Truth Society did not want to come into contact with them, so the ice continued to expand toward the distant lake until a group of people all gathered in the center of the lake.
The light of March illuminates the lake, and the aura is twinkling in the moonlit night. To Shade by the lake, this scene was quiet and strange.
And Shade finally found traces of Mr. Joey Barton. This gentleman, who should be between the [Truth Society] and the church team, somehow ended up unconscious on the edge of the lake ice, lying alone. I don’t know whether I will live or die under the moon.
As the battle venue moves away, people get further and further away from him, and this is an opportunity for Shade.
"Be careful, don't move."
Shadra opened his coat and stuffed little Mia into the big pocket on the inner chest of his coat. After refastening the buttons, his left chest seemed to have a bulge.
Put [Eternal Youth Leaf] in your mouth, bend your fingers, and let the flying red butterfly stay on your fingers. As the red butterfly disintegrated into light spots, the light spots entered Shade's chest, and he felt the power from the whispering element.
The essence of Red Butterfly's power is distortion and sadness. Shade must use this power as soon as possible to avoid the elements from affecting him.
Take out the mask and put it on your face. After preparing the casting materials, Shade bent down and carefully walked out of the forest. I looked up and saw a group of people huddled together under the moonlight, so I trotted onto the ice:
"Raglai's Leap."
Moving silently across the ice, the night, mist, and illusions combined to help him hide his traces.
Soon, Shade came to Mr. Barton's side. The shadows of the vast mountains covered the two of them, and the splashing sound of the lake water blown by the night wind was very calming.
"Mr. Button, Mr. Button!"
Shad patted his face gently, and Joey Barton's swollen eyes gradually opened. The pupils were narrowed and the gasping for air looked like the last struggle of a dying person.
"It's me, John Watson. Come with me, there's a fight over there."
"The Truth Society has found the key to resurrection and wants me to determine the date of death of the other party. But that is the person that the church has been targeting for a long time. The church deliberately let the professors of the Truth Society discover him in order to expose the person who came to Middleburg this time. The professors caught them all."
Mr. Barton was breathing heavily, and Shade stretched out his hand to pull him up, but unexpectedly the middle-aged man pushed Shade aside.
Buzz~
Where Shade was originally squatting, the metal Rhodes card inserted into the ice kept trembling.
"Who?"
Shad turned and looked behind, the moonlight shining on the flat ice. The shadowless clown with four arms faced the moonlight, surrounded by the white mist unique to the narrow space, and four weapons were aimed at him at the same time.
"The third clown? Am I involved too?"
He stood up with a frown and put the witch's ring on his right hand. The sense of power emerged again, and even the [Witch's Light] spiritual rune became restless.
"Hehehehahaha."
In that maniacal laughter, the clown disappeared into the moonlight, and in the next second, he held up the black short knife and stabbed Shade in the neck from behind.
The bright yellow long sword illuminates the shadow, and the action of turning around and slashing leaves a gorgeous light and shadow in the mist. When the yellow moonlight sword was chopped into pieces, Shade's figure disappeared from the place, and then appeared above the clown's head:
"Moonlight Sword!"
Hold the sword with both hands and slash downward, while the "space stabilizing aura" prohibits the ability to move in space. The potential energy of the fall was superimposed on the kinetic energy of the slash, causing Shade's sword to hit the clown's head, but the opponent turned into a wooden sculpture:
"Substitute?"
Crazy laughter came from the left side, and red nose **** flew like cannonballs. Shade, who was well prepared, shot a Rhodes card. The card immediately fell into a pile of small pieces of paper after touching the ball of his nose, and was blown away by the night wind.
The clown's metal Rhodes cards reflected the moonlight and shot toward Shade like a swarm of bees. Shade hurriedly threw out his entire deck of Rhodes cards. Facing the night wind, 53 Rhodes cards left afterimages in the air, and then the two types of cards collided on the ice at extremely high speeds. The paper Rhodes cards are attached with the light and shadow of red butterflies, and the phantoms of red butterflies flash above the head, facing the clown's cards head-on. There was a thin sound in the air, like an instrument playing in the mist high in the sky.
Under the Rhodes cards that were fighting in the air, Shade clapped his hands together and then pulled them apart:
"Moonlight Slash!"
Bathed in the moonlight, the slanted holy silver light blade slashed forward. The tall and thin clown laughed and raised the muzzle of the gun. The bullet that could cause fragmentation in the space perfectly offset Shade's full blow.
"It seems...not that strong."
Xia De stabbed with his sword in both hands, while stepping forward lightly. In the next second, with a lunging movement, Shade appeared behind the clown again. When the opponent turned around with a strange waist twisting movement and blocked with a short knife, the dark chains in Shade's sleeves gushed out like a python.
At the same time, the second moonlight sword summoned by [Blade of Chaotic Time] thrust out from the void. The clown's black short knife quickly moved up to block the big sword, and then moved down to block Shade's second thrust.
While the weapons of the two were pinging and pinging, the clown threw the red nose ball towards Shade with his left hand, trying to force him to retreat, but was hit by the [Foundation Silver Moon] among the Rhodes cards flying in the sky. Blocked.
Obviously, the power of the Hazama Nail is not enough to decompose the [All Things Impermanent Card].
The chains of sin wrapped around the clown's left hand and quickly spread throughout his body. The chains imprisoned mobility and extraordinary abilities, and the metal cards that were fighting in the air immediately lost control and fell to the ice.
The clown still wanted to resist the power of the chains of sin, but when the red butterfly landed on his shoulder, his movements strangely paused for a moment.
"The power of Grace and Helen is really useful."
Taking a deep breath, under the moonlight in the valley, among the cards falling from the sky, Shade lunged forward, holding the sword in both hands, and slashed neatly from the upper left to the lower right:
"Ha!"
Under the moonlit night, there was another arc-shaped light mark, and the sword blade cut directly into the ice after falling. As Shade struggled to lift the sword again, the clown's wild laughter finally stopped.
The head fell to the ground, and the head, smeared with oil paint, rolled a few times, and finally stood motionless with its face upward. It rolled from the shadow of the mountains into the moonlight, its face still retaining the mad expression.
Shad walked over with the sword in hand, held the hilt with both hands, and stabbed downwards at the man's head. The moonlight sword penetrated the skull and was nailed to the ice. There is no enmity between the stranger and the clown, but keeping the dead away from the world of the living is what the living should do.
On the ice in the distance, the fighting still did not stop. It seemed that what he killed was just a clone of the clown.
"Mr. Button, let's take shelter in the woods first."
He did not pick up the sword again, but let it disappear into silver shards of light in his hand.
Shad turned to look at Mr. Joey Barton, who looked at the battle just now in surprise, and then came back to his senses. He saw Shade standing on the ice bathing in the moonlight, and saw the phantoms of red butterflies flying around, and for a moment he didn't know how to express his feelings:
"I didn't expect you to be so powerful."
Shaking his head, he struggled to stand up on the ice. He stood in the shadow and looked at Shade, who was standing under the moonlight outside the gap between light and shadow:
"You are one of the few good people I know, but I can't go with you."
With his head lowered, Joey Barton's tone was full of apology.
Shadow frowned slightly, Mr. Barton seemed a little different from a few hours ago:
"No, I'm not asking you to come with me. Even if not all of the people sent by the Truth Society to Mibao were wiped out this time, there are only a few left. I want you to go to the church, and we are still Friends."
This is Shade’s most satisfying ending.
But this middle-aged man who looked like a disabled child still shook his head:
"The scholars of the Truth Society are not good people, but the church will not let me do what I want to do.
Mr. Watson, you are right, I probably do have special powers. The moment I looked at the clown with my eyes, I saw his origin, I saw the narrow space shrouded in white mist, and I even saw his true death as he fell into the deepest and deepest part of the narrow space. ”
"Did you see it? That's where the dead were supposed to go, but what does that have to do with you leaving with me?"
"Mr. Watson, the water area illuminated by the dark moon is the place that appeared in my dream."
Mr. Button’s voice was low, and Shade had a very bad suspicion:
"So."
"I might be able to find her."
Mr. Button lowered his head, and Shade could not see clearly his face in the shadow of the mountains.
"Then."
"Bring her back. The dead, resurrected."
It is indeed a bit cold on the lake in late autumn.
Mr. Button’s voice was very calm. He lowered his head and limped out of the darkness with great effort, looking at the mask on the young man’s face under the moon:
"Yes, I want the dead to come back."
"This is impossible."
"Is it really impossible?"
Mr. Barton raised his palm and then lowered it:
"I am death's chosen one."
He said softly, the meaning in his eyes was something that Shade couldn't understand:
"Mr. Watson, what would happen to you if the treasure in your heart passed away?"
Xia De touched his chest and touched something very soft, which was little Mia. He couldn't imagine little Mia leaving, so he didn't answer the question.
"There are many things that only I can do. Sorry, Mr. Watson, I know you want to lead me on the right path, but there are still many things I want to do. Fate has not treated me fairly. Then I will treat myself fairly. Happiness in life must be fought for by yourself. Don’t follow me.”
He waved his hand to Shade, and the huge black shock wave actually shattered a large area of ice, knocking Shade directly from the lake to the shore, but Shade was not injured.
He climbed up from the fog on the shore and saw Mr. Button running towards the people fighting on the ice.
"Why did he suddenly become so powerful? Didn't he only have one ring?"
[Compared to the immature Iluna Bayas's understanding of balance and the misguided Ivan Darkness's understanding of darkness, Joey Barton obviously understands death better. 】
The sound of murmuring came in the wind, and Shade took a few quick steps and stepped onto the water. Ripples spread under his feet, but Joey Barton had already entered the battlefield in the center of the lake's ice.
"Barton, follow us, you will find more powerful power!"
Professor Johnson shouted loudly, but had to face the Rhodes cards that were shooting wildly.
"There is something wrong with this man, he may be the chosen one!"
Eluna immediately shouted loudly, and at the same time, the sunshine gun in her hand finally pierced the chest of the clown in front of her. The spear shining with golden thunder bloomed in the mist. When Iluna jumped high and threw it towards the last clown, Joey Barton, who was limping while walking, actually took the initiative to block the clown.
A black robe flashed in front of him like an invisible curtain in the fog, completely blocking the sunlight gun.
Everyone stopped. The ring warlocks of the [Truth Society] gathered together and didn’t understand what Barton was going to do. The church’s team was scattered around because of its large number and stronger strength to prevent anyone from leaving the battlefield.
"Barton, what are you going to do?"
Iluna asked in a deep voice. She had met Joy Barton when she followed Shade under the alias "Mary Watson" and knew that the other person was not bad, so she did not take action immediately.
"Ma'am, we seem to be of the same species."
The clown behind Barton held his shoulders and laughed happily, not showing any hostility towards Joey Barton. As thin steam mist spurted out, a warlock's life ring appeared behind the two.
The white mist that escaped from the narrow space quickly rushed towards the simple life ring, and Shade finally came to the edge of the broken ice.
"Do you want to absorb Hazama's power?"
The professor with the red butterfly rust spots on his life ring asked:
"Barton, have you seen our research materials? Fusion of the power of relics, we are more professional, come with us."
"Sorry, Professor, I won't follow you either. I want to go deep into the narrow space, break the boundary between life and death, and find my lost treasure."
He is indeed still a first-level warlock, but the talent of the chosen one has been explored to the extreme, so much so that when Hazama's power is activated, Shade even feels that Barton is a part of Hazama at the moment.
"Now is the time to break the boundary between life and death. Do you want to destroy the narrow room?"
The middle-aged man behind Iluna asked loudly. He seemed to be the captain of this team. Shade just caught a glimpse of the other person being the Eighth Ring.
"Barton, do you know what you are going to do?"
"I have always known, yes, I have always known. Fate has not treated me fairly, but I will not complain about it. I just think that now that I have seen hope, I will never give up. Everyone , please step back and let me take this clown away as a sacrifice."
But no one stepped back, everyone was looking at him under the moonlight.
Joy Barton also looked at everyone, with his back to the moonlight and shadows on his face. But the child-like shadow under the feet is being covered by another huge shadow that suddenly appears:
"Sorry."
