The Whispering Verses Chapter 788: Costs and penalties
"Are you Sister Devlin? Shade mentioned you to me, I am Iluna Bayas."
Out of respect for the eleven-ring warlock and being amazed by the nun’s temperament, Iluna introduced herself carefully.
Sister Devlin still maintained a calm expression and nodded slightly:
"Hello, Chosen One of Balance."
After speaking, she actually handed over a business card to Iluna. It only had the name Devlin, no surname, and the title was the director of the Snake Heart Hospital.
"This is mine."
Eluna also hurriedly looked for her business card. Although she felt a little shabby, she handed it over and then introduced:
"This is Priest Rat Augustus, a friend of Shade, who belongs to the Church of Dawn."
"Hello, Sister, I am from the Diocese of Tobesk."
The old priest said, and he and Sister Devlin also exchanged business cards. The nun "looked" at priest Augustus by the light of the fire, and hesitated:
"Hello."
"Sister Devlin, how did you get in?"
Eluna put away the business card and asked curiously.
"I assisted the two witches in fighting Joey Barton. Barton summoned some terrible things, terrible things from the fifth era, and held the witches back. I chased him into the passage in the heart of the mountain, and then Fell into the well together."
The three people by the bonfire were busy exchanging business cards, and Shade by the beach turned his head again and looked at Mr. Button, who had a sad expression on his face:
"What are you going to do next?"
Mr. Barton sighed:
"Bring her here, of course. Mr. Watson, you once asked me what price I would pay to bring her back."
The three people beside the campfire also looked over at this time. Joey Barton turned to look at Shad, the light in his eyes was very powerful:
"I am willing to give everything."
He held the stone with both hands and jumped down from it with all his strength. Then, much to Shade's expectation, he stepped towards the peaceful dark water.
Mr. Barton did not sink into the water, but stood on the water, like those white shadows, heading towards the distance against the dark moon.
Xia De did not speak, but looked at his feet. Joey Barton's body was lying on his back on the shore of the tidal flat with his eyes closed. His face was pale, and his deformed child-like body was gradually losing its temperature. Looking up again, the soul was gone.
He really gave his all.
"I'm really so infatuated"
All other souls are white shadows with similar looks, and the differences can only be vaguely distinguished. Only Mr. Barton's soul is so unique and real. He did not disappear, but stopped in the depths of the water, as if shouting or crying, but Shade did not observe any white shadows stopping, nor did he see any souls coming out. Return at the end of the dark moon.
"Shad, you must stop him as soon as possible."
The voice of Priest August came from behind. Shade turned around and found that the three people around the campfire were looking at him.
"If he really brings back the soul that has been lost for many years, even if he does not take it away from this door, something terrible will definitely happen - the boundary between life and death is clearly broken. This pair Fort Midhill is not dangerous, but it is a very bad symbol."
Priest August should know many things, Shade believes him:
"What should I do?"
"Catch up and defeat him at the place where the soul wanders away. The water is different from the tidal flat. You can defeat it, but you must not kill him. There are five living people who come in, and those who leave must also be Five living people. He has such pure death, and if he enters true death here, the seal of the Holy Tree will not be able to prevent Hazama from losing control."
The nun said softly, still using the old grammar.
"Wait, let's not talk about whether I can defeat him, nun, do you want me to set foot on this water?"
Shad asked incredulously, Priest August and Sister Devlin nodded together:
"Here, only you can do this."
"Why? Priest, you"
"I'm just an old man and don't have much power. You wouldn't want me to do this kind of thing."
Priest Augustus looked up at Shade, his face reddened by the firelight:
"Besides, my power is not complete."
The voice of this sentence is very low, but everyone can hear it:
"The power you possess is great. If there is anyone here who can step onto the water, it must be you."
"So, Sister Devlin, you."
"I'm just a nun who takes care of Chu Huo. I'm still an ordinary living person. There are some things I can't do."
The firelight danced on her blindfold, and as the nun raised her head, the fine lines gradually became clear. Shade had never been able to accurately describe the pattern on the nun's eyepatch. At this moment, it looked like a sun.
"Ilu."
Looked at the haggard girl again, but immediately shook her head. In Iluna's current state, let alone getting up to fight, she couldn't even leave the range of the Kiss of the Tree bonfire.
"Also, I must remind you."
Priest Augustus said again, looking at Joey Barton standing deep in the water from a distance:
"He is contacting death more deeply than any living person in history. What is that strange gift? On this quiet water, he will become more powerful."
Gan Ze
"Stronger than outside? Oh, priest. Okay, how strong is it?"
Xia De asked.
"It's hard to describe."
Sister Devlin then said:
"But you can think that you are fighting a high-level warlock holding a variety of level 0 relics."
"Yes."
Priest Augustus echoed, a little surprised that this nun also knew so many things:
"This nun is right. Shade, you must act as soon as possible, because none of us know what he can do."
Shad looked embarrassed, while Iluna leaned on her sword and looked at the other two people beside the campfire with her lips pursed. She felt that they all knew a lot, but she seemed to be the only one here who knew nothing. She worked hard to find information that might be helpful to the current situation in her knowledge of the chosen ones. At the same time, she used "another me" to feel this area that seemed so silent that time stopped:
"Shad, if you want to walk on that water, I can use the power of the ancient **** [The Hanging Judge] to give you some help and help you balance the power of life and death. Weaken the impact on you, and at the same time Allowing you to hurt him here."
She said softly.
"Shad, don't worry about how to walk onto that water. I will also give you a short blessing, which will make you immune to some damage and be able to cause more obvious damage to Joey Barton."
Priest August said.
"Shad Hamilton, if you are willing, I can let part of the original fire attach to your sword. Even death cannot extinguish the fire from the beginning of the world. May the original fire be with you. ”
Sister Devlin also said.
Shad nodded, but shook his head;
"I'm just here to be an audience, why did it become like this? Well, it seems that I can only go there. The situation is urgent now, and I should set off immediately. However, if there is a delay of three seconds, I have to go elsewhere first. place to recuperate and ask others for help. ”
He took out the time key from his pocket, walked back from the beach and sat down by the bonfire:
"This time I have to defeat Joey Barton head-on, but even with your help, I think I need some extra means."
He took out the relics from his body and placed them next to the bonfire in front of him. Without the protection of the afterglow of his divinity, the relics could only avoid sudden loss of control if they were close to the first fire:
"Three seconds, I'll be right back."
Eluna already knew the secret of Shade's time travel, so she knew what he was going to do. Although Priest Augustus didn't understand much, he still didn't ask anything. As for Sister Devlin, she is still the same, and it seems that nothing Shade does will surprise her.
Confirming that all five items about the power of the sun were on him, Shade sat in front of the bonfire and pointed the key in his hand at the door pendant hanging on his chest:
"May the World Tree protect me in time."
Click~ The door on the pendant bounced open with a click, and silky white mist overflowed from it. Shade wasted no time and inserted his fingers. From the perspective of the other three people around the campfire, the overflowing white mist quickly wrapped around him.
As the white mist disappeared, the pendant fell to the ground, clattering next to the [Spear of Kindness], with the tether hanging down on the gun.
[Outlander, you have stepped into the "corridor of time". 】
[Message from the ancient **** "Father of the Infinite Tree":]
[In the winter of 3024 in the Fifth Age, in the Central Continent, in the Silent Valley. 】
[Event: Destruction of the Cadiz Library. 】
【Duration is thirty minutes (3/3). 】
[You have obtained additional information. 】
[The figure of the father of the infinite tree continues to watch you. 】
【The test given to you by the ancient **** of time will continue. 】
[Assist the old **** "Grey Robe Sage" to complete the recording of library documents. 】
[The Father of the Infinite Tree will give you rewards: knowledge-the magic of original sin, a piece of true information-the vampire species. 】
After hearing this familiar information, I wanted to take a step forward and leave the white mist space and enter the valley of death. But this time, there was another piece of information:
[Outlander, you violated the rules and used the time key in death. 】
"Huh? Violation? Where is the violation?"
[The father of the Infinite Tree, the power that hates death, the Time Key should not be used in death. 】
The reminder of "her" came to his ears, and Shade looked at the white mist in front of him in slight surprise:
"It turns out that there is such a taboo on time keys, but the professors at the School of History at St. Byrons didn't tell me, oh, and probably no one would use keys in such a place. If I could report this information I don’t know what kind of rewards will be given to the academy. I still lack a lot of practical knowledge, etc. What will happen if I violate the rules?”
[Message from the ancient **** "Father of the Infinite Tree":]
[The opening time of the next time key has been postponed from one week to three weeks later. 】
Such a result is acceptable, but it is just a waste of half a month. Shade just wants to take a break while the incident in Middleburg is over.
[The Father of the Infinite Tree gives you the "green blessing", the breath of death is washed away, and it will not be able to haunt you again in a short time. Your vitality is enhanced, your resilience is enhanced, and your thaumaturgy with nature and trees is greatly enhanced. 】
[Outlander, you have experienced a miracle. 】
[Outlander, you have some understanding of "nature", "life", "trees", "water", "plants", "blessings", "animals" and "coordination". 】
