Whispering Verse

Chapter 773: Tears and Correspondence and Owls

Signaling the nun not to make a move, Xia De handed the water treated by [Bloating Food] to that hand. Cyan's hand grabbed the rice bowl, and then exited the door. Xia De immediately closed the door again, leaving only a gap.

The left hand is holding the inner doorknob, and the right hand is holding [Night Watchman]. But Xia De didn't wait for the opportunity to do it. Both he and the nun heard the sound of drinking water from outside. That rice bowl is very big, so the evil spirits outside are the ones who drank the most [Satiating Food] so far.

It drank it all in one gulp, then belched loudly. Xia De squinted his eyes holding the sword, and Sister Michelle was also holding a shiny stone and was about to cast a spell. But the evil spirit didn't rush in. They heard the sound of the bowl being placed on the doorstep, followed by a sigh of relief. .

This time the voice is still old, but not hoarse at all:

"If I could meet you while I was alive"

The sound disappeared, and the [Night Watchman] in his hand returned to normal, and the light on the orange rune on the surface of the sword gradually faded.

"It disappeared?"

Xia De asked hesitantly.

"It left and continued to walk. The undead stranded in the narrow space cannot enter the real death from the narrow space, but when they return to the real world, they can still continue to walk after fulfilling their wishes."

Sister Michelle explained.

This is also the method given by the Witch Emperor Violet, which requires guiding the undead that spanned several eras in the narrow room to the real world, and then guiding them from the stable space crack that connects the real death to the real world. Reasons to keep going.

The undead just now should be very powerful, otherwise the night watchman's reaction would not be so great. Since it is possible to let him leave without doing anything, it is naturally a good thing.

Of course, Xia De did not forget to open the door and recycle the rice bowl at the door. But he unexpectedly discovered that there was a small white stone in the empty bowl. The shape is irregular, but it feels very smooth.

Mia seemed to like it, and stretched out her paw to touch it, but Shad refused.

"What's this?"

Sister Michelle couldn't see things directly without eyes like Sister Divelin, so Xia De described it before she gave the answer:

"This is a very rare thing, soul tears, which can only be produced by the lingering undead after satisfying their wishes. It is an extremely rare special substance. Not only does the wish be fulfilled, but the undead itself must be very powerful. Even if these conditions are met , the appearance of this kind of substance also requires probability. I only heard about it in the records of the religious order, and this is the first time I have actually seen it.”

Hearing the name of this substance, Xia De rummaged through the knowledge of the two witch reverberations, and found the relevant description. Just like Sister Michelle said, this is an extremely precious semi-solid substance. As a potion material, it can be configured to directly heal the soul; as an alchemy material, the alchemy items produced can obtain various effects that affect the soul; even, if directly absorbed by special means, it can enhance the soul strength of the ring warlock without side effects.

Sister Michelle even believed that apart from the legendary sage-level relic [Sage's Stone], soul teardrops can be regarded as one of the most versatile basic materials.

Since Xia De solved the evil spirit just now, then this soul teardrop naturally belongs to Xia De. He also had a very good harvest before the final battle broke out.

I don't know how many scary guys there are on the street. Not long after the evil spirit who knocked on the door left, there was another knock on the door. This time the knock on the door was much more urgent, and even before Xia De asked who was outside the door, the people outside took the initiative to call for help:

"Sister Michelle, open the door. I'm a gray hamster, and our friend the pointed deer is injured!"

This time [Night Watchman] did not give an early warning, and Xia De looked out from the cat's eyes, and saw a young man in his twenties, carrying a middle-aged man in a coma on his back, followed by a man with short hair anxious lady.

It was the woman, who appeared to be in her thirties, who called herself a "gray hamster."

Sister Michelle was still on the first floor, and she came over again when she heard the voice. After listening to Shade's description, she knew who was coming:

"It's the correspondence ring warlocks from the local Serkses Medical College. They also live in a nearby block. They are friends of the Blind House. Our friendship is very good."

Of course, she didn't open the door right away. Instead, after asking some questions, she asked Xia De to avoid the room on the first floor before opening the door to let the three people in the thick fog in. They had a conversation in the lobby, and Xia De also learned that the three major thaumaturgy academies and churches had predicted what would happen today, so yesterday they informed the local correspondence ring warlocks not to go out casually.

The three people from the Serksex Medical College originally planned to spend this boring day together, but the evil spirit invaded their house from the attic that they had forgotten to seal. About half an hour ago, they had a big scuffle with that powerful evil spirit. Although they won in the end, one of their companions was unfortunately affected by the "soul scream" before the evil spirit collapsed and fell into a coma.

Because they didn't know whether the long-term coma would have an impact on their lives, they ventured through the white mist to ask for help, and Sister Michelle was not stingy in lending a helping hand.

Xia De did not show up due to his status, but outside the room prepared for the three of them, he heard the description of the fog by the correspondence ring warlocks of Serkses.

Although it is still daytime, the outside is gloomy and terrifying, coupled with the influence of dense fog, basically the distance that the arm can stretch is the maximum distance that the vision can reach. Because of the sound of the horn just now, the weak souls were all dispersed by the magic power, so there are not so many evil spirits on the street now. But once encountered, it is definitely not something that ordinary people or even ordinary low-level warlocks can deal with.

Compared to Tobesk's Night of God's Arrival and the Great Flood in Coldwater Harbor, the disaster encountered by Fort Midhill seems to be more difficult. Because, this is not a man-made disaster at all, and there is no way to defeat a specific target to end it all.

The Ring Warlocks of Serkses did not plan to leave today. They came here with the intention of going to the House of the Blind. No one knows what will happen next, so more people get together, at least something can be resolved together.

It is late autumn now, and the sunset time of Fort Midhill, which is the time when the ceremony starts, is about 6:42. The anxious Xia De waited until five o'clock in the afternoon, and finally received the reply that the "opening the door" ceremony was ready.

A folded paper crane flew from the fog to the window of Sister Michelle's office on the second floor of the House of the Blind, and was only noticed after knocking on the glass a few times.

The above is the message from [Spiritual Religion] High Ring nun, Ms. Ronal. They have found a suitable location to open the door, but due to the current weird weather, they cannot send a carriage to pick up Xia De, so I hope that Xia De can go to the ceremony site by himself as soon as possible .

"Where?"

Xia De, who had been waiting for a long time, asked.

"At Fort Midhill Mechanical College."

"good."

Turning Little Miya back into a toy and putting it away, Xia De looked at the white mist outside the window:

"It's finally about to start."

Carrying the fishing rod, picking up the sword, putting on the kerosene lamp, putting on the overcoat, and saying goodbye to Sister Michelle solemnly in the foyer on the first floor, Xia De stepped outside into the thick fog.

The damp and cold fog almost made Xia De think that he had reached the narrow gap between life and death, and the silent city seemed to have died in this thick fog.

He had to enter the narrow room before the church ceremony started, after all, it was impossible for Joey Barton to act after the ceremony. Therefore, Xia De couldn't waste too much time on the road. Fortunately, compared with Zaza, there are not too many evil spirits in reality, and the kerosene lamp burning the first fire in his hand can illuminate a bigger range.

In addition to the evil spirits, he also has to avoid the church ring warlock team who are looking for evil spirits in the fog, and the strange ring warlocks who don't know their origins. After the [Truth Society] dispatched to Mibao was almost wiped out, not all foreign forces withdrew from the city.

And on days like today, conspirators are active again.

Of course, none of this has anything to do with Shad, he just wants to reach Fort Midhill Mechanical Academy as soon as possible. Naturally, no carriages could be found on the streets, and it was even difficult to find a horse.

He could only rely on his own legs to go from the home of the blind in the center of the city to the academy in the southernmost part of the city. Along the way he avoided all the fights and even helped two ordinary patrolmen who were attacked by a headless evil spirit.

After leaving the House of Blindness, Xia De also understood more and more clearly what happened on Mibao and Xikar Mountain. Standing on the roof of other people's houses in the outdoor with a wide view, he could see the things that happened in the infiltrating sky. In the fog, five golden beams of light shot straight into the sky. Judging from the direction, it was the direction of the five Orthodox churches in the Fort Midhill Diocese.

At the same time, UU Reading www.uukanshu.com a large number of flying birds of unknown origin patrolled the sky, as if monitoring the city.

Xia De took the risk of sticking a leaf of youth to the fishhook, while he hid in the alley, and sure enough, he seduced an owl that fell from the sky. After capturing that stupid guy, use the [Fish Training Ring] to give it the ability to speak, and then learn that they were sent by the "good guys" of the Church of Nature to monitor the city and search for evil spirits in the city.

The owl, which looks more stupid than Minia, actually speaks Kasenlik with a strong accent. It speaks a dialect, describing itself and its companions as coming from a "very southern" warm area, and complaining about the heavy fog It really bothered Bird, but the light from the kerosene lamp in Xia De's hand made him feel comfortable.

"Very Southern" is probably the Holy See of the Natural Church.

Even if it was caught by Xia De, it didn't panic, and even begged Xia De to give it some food after Xia De asked the question. The church asked these birds to monitor the city and deliver messages from this morning, but they were only fed some food at noon.

The owl said not very bad words, and finally got some of Little Mia's cat food from Xia De.
