Chapter 679: draw sword

[Traveler's Travel Door] allows Dr. Schneider to appear in Fort Midhill for a short period of time, but because any item with extraordinary power cannot pass through the door, so in addition to the door key, the doctor also gave Shad a The suitcase containing the spell-casting materials and ritual materials was asked by Shad to bring it to Midhill Fort, and arranged peripheral rituals in advance to help weaken the demon's power.

"The local team members of Zaras, are you willing to trade this door?"

Xia De asked with the key, the doctor nodded and patted his chest:

"Don't worry, I am very popular in the local area. The other party has indeed taken a fancy to your mirror. It is a very good prop when you encounter pursuit or need to eavesdrop. But the gold pound that the other party can compensate you does not want to exceed 50 Pound, so you can talk about it tomorrow night."

"Um?"

Xia De originally thought that he wanted to compensate the other party, but now it seems that the value of that [corpse mirror] is really greater than he imagined.

"Okay, then I'll come again tomorrow night."

After speaking, he wanted to leave immediately, but hesitated for a while, and asked Dr. Schneider who seemed to be receiving treatment later:

"Doctor, are you sure that nothing else will happen tonight? If it's not safe, we can wait until Tuesday when a friend of mine arrives at Fort Midhill."

"No, no, other things may go wrong, but there will be no problem with the devil..."

The slightly excited expression gradually disappeared, the doctor shook his head, and said a little lonely:

"After all, it's a demon."

Because the "opening" time agreed with the doctor was seven o'clock in the evening, Xia De didn't care about Mia's dinner. After leaving the doctor's clinic, he went to Quill Street to find Dorothy, asked her to take care of the cat, and promised to pick it up tonight.

"Xia De, are you going on another 'intense and interesting' adventure?"

The blond girl stood at the door of the apartment downstairs, hugged the reluctant little Miya, and asked Xia De suspiciously. The first book of Hammiddle's Detective Stories was coming out to the public, and Dorothy was busy with it while Shad hung out at Middlehill.

"No, no, it's not a dangerous thing this time. The doctor and I are going to store a relic, and it's a very good relic. You will be surprised when I get it."

The witcher's silver sword was indeed beautiful.

"Really? And the doctor...the doctor does seem to be reliable."

She first praised, and then tried again:

"Then do you need me to temporarily return [Youth Immature Leaf] to you?"

Xia De immediately shook his head:

"Of course not, this time I'm just going to contain a relic."

Besides, Xia De still has two pieces in his hand:

"That's it. I'll pick up Mia around ten o'clock."

In order not to lose control of the [Traveler's Travel Door], Shad also had to return to Tobesk at ten o'clock in the evening to return the key.

He waved goodbye to Dorothy, and the blonde girl stared at Shad's back, always feeling that what he was going to do would not be that simple.

It was already four o'clock in the afternoon when we said goodbye to Dorothy. Shad just ate a piece of bread at home, and immediately went to Midhill Castle through the basement, and then after an hour's journey, he came to the cliff in the mountain again, and fell from the cliff in the same way as last time. The opening in the cliff can only be seen by those who have the parchment scroll.

Passing through the narrow and quiet mountainside passage, Xia De saw the stone platform, the broken bridge and the bonfire in front of the broken bridge outside the passageway, on the side of the hollow in the mountainside.

A long sword shining with silver light, the sword body is engraved with the characters [My heart is clear, the sword kills demons]. The color of the characters is close to black, and just by looking at them, one can feel the great achievements and complicated stories of the sword.

Below the sword, in the bonfire with only ashes left, some faint sparks could be seen faintly flickering.

"This sword is really beautiful...and it's free."

Xia De gave out the most sincere admiration in his heart, and then amidst "her" chuckled, he was going to arrange the ritual given by the doctor to weaken the power of the demon first.

In the black suitcase, in addition to the doctor's own spell-casting materials, there are also detailed instructions and materials for the ritual. This ritual is derived from the knowledge of evil spirits and demons, and has no effect on the doctor. After all, demons know demons best.

Among the materials, the most important ones are Holy Water No. 3, the shell of a scarab, holy silver, church books that have been used for 15 years, and a blessed red ribbon with words praising the gods that the doctor got from somewhere. Judging from the description, this ribbon is actually an ornament on the robe that the Pope of the Natural Church of the previous generation would only wear when presiding over Mass.

"The priest also made a fortune this time."

While Xia De was busy, under the long sword

The bonfire only spewed out some sparks occasionally, as if it was about to rekindle. Xia De kept an eye on it all the time, but until he finished arranging the ritual to expel the demons, there was no change in the bonfire.

Of course, the whispers in his ear that tempted Shad to throw himself into the bonfire and live with the flames have not stopped, and the temperature here is also a bit high. It's just that these are not insurmountable difficulties for foreigners who are used to various big scenes.

His movements were fairly fast, and there was still half an hour before the agreed upon seven o'clock in the evening after arranging the ceremony. Restraining my curiosity about the opposite side of the broken bridge, I stood on the edge of the passage and the stone platform, ready to meet the doctor.

The thaumaturgy [time perception] allowed Xia De to know the most correct time. When seven o'clock came, he followed the doctor's instructions, meditated on the [traveler's travel gate] in his mind, and then stabbed the metal key into the air. After two turns to the left, two turns to the right.

With a "click~" sound in the air, Xia De released the key and took a step back, seeing the old brown wooden door with a metal base "growing" from the key that seemed to be floating in the air to the upper and lower sides.

The door was pushed open, and the scene behind the door was not this mountain hollow, but Dr. Schneider's warm and comfortable bedroom.

"Is it okay?"

The doctor behind the door probed his head and asked, seeing Xia De nodding, he stepped across the threshold with confidence:

"Is this the Sikar Mountain? It's the first time I've been here. Look, it's really dark here."

The doctor snapped his fingers, and two **** of fire flew out, hovering above the stone platform to illuminate the place.

"I can smell the devil's stench without looking."

Smiling at Xia De, Dr. Schneider went around the door, stepped on the ground under his feet with black boots, rubbed his hands, and came to the broken bridge impatiently, looking at the bonfire under the silver sword.

He took a deep breath and showed a satisfied expression:

"That's right, detective, this is indeed the evil spirit that mimics the Balrog - the arsonist Sokefis!"

"Doctor, you still have three minutes and two seconds."

Xia De was still waiting at the edge of the junction between the passage and the stone platform, reminding the doctor while looking at the open door curiously. Behind the door is the bedroom on the third floor of the doctor's clinic, and according to the characteristics of this relic, only users who come from the other side of the door can go back through the side that opened the door, so although Tobesk and Shad only have "One step away", but if he wants to return to Tobesk, he still has to walk an hour on the mountain road to the abandoned tower in the mountain.

"Well, detective, just stand there and don't move. No matter what you see next, please don't panic."

"Doctor, I am no longer an ordinary person who didn't understand anything when I saw you this summer."

Xia De said, and then saw the doctor take off the black coat and throw it to him, wearing only a white shirt:

"I hope, don't damage my image in your heart."

The doctor turned his back to Xia De and said in a low voice.

"What shape..."

He shut his mouth just in time, because he saw the doctor roll up the sleeve of his right shirt to expose his arm. Then, he supported his right hand with his left hand, and pointed the palm of his right hand at the bonfire under the silver sword.

The shadow on the wall clearly showed that the doctor's right hand was stretching and lengthening, and then the palm split open suddenly, and the huge mouth even directly made his palm swell.

"The devil's mouth of human pus! The doctor has even mastered this."

Xia De said in his heart, and judging from the current state, Dr. Schneider's utilization efficiency of "human pus" is stronger than that of Ivan Darkness back then.

[The chosen ones of darkness use their dark talent to forcibly coexist with the devil. Your friend directly devoured the demon's power and turned it into his own, which is fundamentally different. 】

Xia De nodded, watching the open mouth cover the bonfire with the long sword inserted.

In the gray embers with only a few sparks, the flames immediately jumped up, trying to make a final resistance. But the doctor's right hand was licked by the terrible flames, but as if it was not affected by anything, it continued to go down, trying to swallow the ashes of the campfire directly.

【careful. 】

"She" said softly

"Watch out for what?"

With a hum~, the long sword stuck in the bonfire vibrated. Silver rays of light soared into the sky, almost illuminating the entire hollow in the mountainside.

At the same time, the black runes on the sword actually lit up from bottom to top. It was bright yellow light, and the bright yellow runes appeared even more dazzling on the sword body emitting silver light.

"My heart is clear, and I will slay demons with my sword!"

The doctor yelled, and read the inscription on the sword body in the devil's language:

"This sword is actually hostile to me, I'm a good person! Oh, **** it!"

Thousands of silver sword glows poured from the vibrating sword body in all directions~lightnovelpub.net~ like raindrops. Doctor Schneider screamed, retracted his arms and hugged his head, and rushed into Xia De without looking back. in the passage behind. The silver sword light followed him closely, but fortunately the doctor had a hard black shell on his back, which blocked a few hits for him.

Xia De was wiser and hid behind the half-open door sideways. Without the effect of space power, the door was almost "indestructible" during the opening period, so it naturally blocked the attack for Xia De.

"Doctor, there is still 1 minute and 53 seconds left, what's the situation?"

The doctor's distance also made the sword return to normal. Xia De turned to check on Dr. Schneider's situation. Although he was a little embarrassed, he was not injured because he ran fast enough.

"No, this sword is more powerful than I imagined. Detective, now I can only draw that sword first, release the Balrog, and then I will swallow it."

The doctor poked his head out from the passage behind him, and beckoned the two fireballs above his head to approach the sword. After making sure that it no longer responded to the outside world, he came to Xia De's side with lingering fear. It seemed that he didn't dare to approach it any more.

"Draw the sword? Who will draw it?"

Xia De looked at the doctor suspiciously.

"What do you say?"

Those blue eyes looked at Shad:

"Detective, there are only you and me here, do you think it is possible for me to touch that sword?"

The firelight above the head reflected the shadows of the two on the ground, and the shadows were severely deformed, and the shadow representing Xia De's right hand pointed at himself:

"You mean... me?"
