The Whispering Verses Chapter 750: Witch Reverb Violet
Chapter 750: Witch Reverb Violet
With a deeper understanding of the ritual, he discovered that the basic principles of the ritual left behind by the Witch Emperor were very similar to the principles of the small sealing ritual taught to him by Sister Devlin. It's just that the nun's ritual was reduced in scale and avoided the step of using the witch's power.
This also means that the [Spiritual Cultivation Order] where Sister Devlin belongs has also inherited part of the knowledge of the Fifth Age.
In short, it took a full hour for the three of them to barely complete the layout of the ceremony venue. Shade's hands and feet felt cold, and the two witches looked like they could hardly hold on anymore.
The small bell hanging on the wall made a tinkling sound in the dark wind. The pulled silver thread entangled the witch's hair, forming a five-pointed star pattern with the well as the center.
Most of the runes on the walls have been refilled, and the ground has been refilled with ritual materials.
The witches were exhausted, but they still braved the wind and came to the well with Shade. The power of death penetrated into the narrow space from here, and the golden afterglow on Shade's body and the light of the two witch jewelry became even more shining.
But despite this, they also know that they must leave here as soon as possible.
So far, besides himself, Shade only knows of two people who can stand in such an area intact. One is Priest Augustus who has the power of the original angel, and the other is Sister Devlin who has the [Primal Fire].
"Miss Aurora, let me do it, don't come close."
Shad reached out his hand, and the lady with long brown wavy hair could only hand him the comb. He braved the wind and went straight to the edge of the well. He stretched out his hand and pressed on the outer wall of the well to prevent himself from being blown down by the cold black wind that seemed to freeze his soul. The wind pulled the golden light in the cracks on his body toward the back. In the eyes of the two witches, it was as if he was lit with golden flames:
"I'm going to lose it, get ready."
Xia De shouted loudly, but his voice was very low due to Hazama's characteristics.
The right hand holding the comb came directly above the well mouth, and the golden afterglow and rainbow-colored light spots surged upward with the black wind. He knew he couldn't hold off any longer, so he let go and dropped the comb.
Almost at the same time, a golden light lit up behind her, and Miss Aurora's twelve golden steps and Granny Cassandra's ten golden steps appeared at the same time.
The light from the stairs illuminated this place, illuminating the mottled murals and peeling runes.
The witch's power penetrates all around, and the aura spreads along those silver lines. At the same time, rainbow-colored light erupted from the wellhead at this moment, briefly illuminating Shade's face and the circular space.
Xia De also used this light to see that there were still some antique remains and stone carvings with no apparent purpose beside the wall. Presumably the Witch Council would move them all away in the future.
"It looks like it was successful."
Shad breathed a sigh of relief and wanted to retreat to a safe place and wait for Granny Cassandra and Miss Aurora to resume the ceremony.
But at this time, the voice in my ear reminded me softly:
[Beside the well, there is a handprint. 】
"What?"
It's not that Shade didn't observe carefully, but the wind here has blown him so hard that he can't open his eyes. Fortunately, "her" senses are not restricted by these restrictions.
"Where?"
[Touch to the right. Up a little. Down slowly. Yes, good. You should have felt the fingerprints. 】
Xia De did feel the fingerprints. The fingerprints on the outside of the well mouth actually looked like someone had used force to press them on the hard black stone. You know, even these winds that represent death have not been able to leave traces at the mouth of the well in the span of two eras.
The witches were busy controlling their power and following the incomplete ritual traces to unblock the ritual context, and had no time to pay attention to Shade. So, Shade overlapped his hand with the slightly smaller handprint, trying to see what would happen.
"Oh?"
The woman's hesitant voice sounded in his ears, and Shade also got the hint:
[Outlander, you have obtained "Villet Marshall, the Guardian of Witch Resonance and Weedon". 】
"What?"
He took away his palm in surprise and saw that the handprints on the well wall were slightly emitting golden light:
"The Witch Emperor died here?"
"She" said that Shade can only absorb the reverberation from the place where the witch with the right to vote dies.
[A powerful enough witch can leave a reverberation while still alive. For example, Myrna Feliana. 】
"But Miss Feliana is"
He wants to say that Miss Feliana is a genius witch of the Fifth Age, but if he thinks about it carefully, the talent and power of a witch who can become the Witch Emperor at the end of the Fifth Era is not necessarily worse than Miss Feliana.
Looking down at the handprint on the well wall, it was still glowing and getting brighter. Shade retreated temporarily, and then heard an unfamiliar sigh coming from his ears. That was a woman's voice, very young:
"Is the seal finally unable to hold up?"
In Shade's stunned expression, in the light from the handprints, a figure of a woman wearing a silk robe with an illusory body appeared. She has long hair, and her face is delicate and solemn. There is an earring with a pentagram mark on the left ear, but there is nothing on the right ear:
Miss Aurora and Granny Cassandra looked over in surprise:
"Shad, what did you do?"
The shadow was just talking to itself and had no intention of paying attention to the three of them. She walked from the well to the wall at the same speed as a walk, and then walked around the circular wall. As he walked, the gold color on his body left clear traces on the wall, further strengthening the seal's effect.
Finally, the figure of the Witch Emperor Violet Marshall walked back to Shade:
"The situation is very serious. Witches of future generations, it seems that you are really in big trouble."
"Are you talking to me? But I'm not a witch."
"I'm not talking to you, this is just a shadow that can speak, recording my words, and it can only be triggered by the witch of the council. In addition to helping you strengthen the seal, this shadow can also detect the narrow space. situation. Judging from the current situation, collapse is almost on the verge."
The shadow looked at Shade as he spoke. Shade hesitantly took a step to the right, so the shadow also turned slightly. Apparently, this mark can trace the person who triggered it:
"I don't know how far your time is from mine, but judging from the current situation, the best solution is."
Shadow and the two witches looked at her expectantly.
".Run quickly. The material world is so big. If you abandon such an area and divide it into an inaccessible restricted area, the loss will not be big. After all, safety comes first."
The shadow said with a serious face, as the top witch of the fifth era, Miss Violet Marshall's appearance is definitely top-notch. She has a standard oval face, long hair hanging behind her back, and even if you can't see the details clearly, you can still tell how luxurious the robe is.
"Run?"
Xia De did not expect that the other party would give such a suggestion. Although this suggestion was very practical, they certainly could not do it.
"Of course, there are no other ways. The boundary between life and death is almost a natural phenomenon and cannot be completely solved, but we can change our thinking. We cannot solve the narrow space, but solving the thousands of undead in the narrow space can also rebalance life. and death."
This is a good idea. The cause of the upcoming catastrophe is that the power of death has accumulated too much. But if most of the undead in the narrow room are cleared, the outbreak will naturally disappear.
The smile appeared on that face again:
"It's just that in our time, no witch is confident that she can do this. The specific steps are as follows -
First of all, to open a huge gap from the material world to outer space, the scale must be large and stable enough. ”
But this cannot be done in the Sixth Age.
"Then, at that gap, the passage leading to real death is spliced."
This is even more impossible. Even Shade can only open a crack leading to death, and splicing it is even more impossible.
"Finally, go deep into the narrow space and find a way to lead all the undead in the narrow space to the material world, and then lead them from the material world into the opened channel and then into death."
The last step is even more outrageous. Not to mention how to guide the undead, but to bring so many undead souls to the material world is a disaster in itself.
"The dead souls in the narrow room cannot enter death through the narrow passage, because this is the boundary. Therefore, we can only reopen a gap in the material world, allowing those souls who have been stranded from ancient times to modern times to complete the journey again The material world - the process of real death. I don’t know what kind of power people have in this era, but in short, I wish you good luck, future witch, and may the ancient **** [Chaos Witch] be with you."
In the chuckle, the figure of the Fifth Age Witch Emperor dispersed into golden light spots:
"In addition to the comb, I also left a roll of parchment. I hope it can help you."
Most of the light spots were scattered into the ritual venue, using their final strength to help strengthen the seal. A small number of light spots gathered on Shade's chest and slowly entered his chest.
The warm power swept away the discomfort felt since entering the narrow space. At the same time, the Enlightenment-[Witch's Light] spirit rune responded to the power from the fifth era, and a new power was born.
"Huh? Just a comb and parchment? Where did the [Time Key] come from?"
[Time Key] has no fixed way of appearing. It is always found in remote corners. The key just now appeared quietly after the seal of the Fifth Era was completed.
The witch's power penetrates into the soul, following instinct, and the spiritual runes involve brand-new power. Shade stretched out his right index finger and pointed at the ground. The blazing light shot out, leaving bright traces in the air, and the heat quickly disappeared with the black wind.
However, this ray did not leave traces on the ground.
[Outlander, you have obtained the thaumaturgy "sunray ray". 】
[Outlander, you have received the blessing of the Witch Emperor: the undead in the narrow room have greatly weakened their malice towards you. Lasts about a week. 】
