Whispering Poems

Chapter 1460 Chase

Last time at Watsons Manor, the demon didn't do his best because he was still counting on Shade to complete the commission. This time, Shade had to deal with the complete stone mirror demon, Goethe.

"The Witcher's Ring"

It cared more about the ring on Shade's finger than the potion whose effect was time-limited:
"I really miss it. The time of the third era seems to be just yesterday. I miss those demon hunters very much. Although most of them are just ordinary mortals, there are a few of them who have left a deep enough impression on me. Now in the Sixth Era, I am really relieved to be able to see this ring again. I just don’t know, do you really understand what kind of power the human beings who lived in the ancient era possessed.”

"Does the witcher you miss include the one who sealed you after the fall of Stonewell Kingdom in the sixth era?"

Xia De asked, in just a few seconds, without any exercise, the effect of the golden potion has been exerted to the extreme.

"It's no use trying to provoke a demon."

The demon reminded, and Shade raised his long sword in the snow:
"So are you ready? This time, I must seal you."

After he finished speaking, his whole body seemed to turn into a stream of light, and he rushed towards the demon with his sword in his hand. The latter watched Xia De getting closer.But when Xia De took a certain step, his figure suddenly disappeared into the snow, and then appeared closer to the gate of the manor. After the figure appeared, it was very silky, and it turned into a group of red butterflies and flew directly to the outside.

"Run away? It will make me look down on you."

So Goethe also turned into black smoke and chased after him.

The effect of the "Golden Elixir" is not limited to increasing the lethality against demons, its enhancement to the Ring Warlock itself is also considerable.

Xia De, who turned into a group of red butterflies, even pulled out a golden streamer during the flight.And the demon seemed to be playing tricks on him, the black smoke followed him, and flew with him into the chaotic forest on fire outside the manor:

"I thought, you have enough courage, how did you escape?"

The devil's whispers were directly transmitted to the ears of Xia De in the form of a butterfly swarm. Fortunately, he was unable to speak in this state, so there was no need to answer.

There was smoke everywhere in the burning cedar forest, and Shad chose his flight path in the thick fog and the hot fire. He knew where he wanted to go.

"You don't think you can escape by yourself, do you?"

The sound of laughing, ground chirping and beeping burning were intertwined, trying to disturb Xia De's thoughts.But Shad had been preparing for this night for so long, and his plans had so far gone pretty well.

"Your fate will be as tragic as Oxenfurt. Your family, your lover, and everything you have will eventually fall under my control."

If it hadn't been for encountering different demons one after another last year, Xia De might really be affected by the whispers of demons at this time.

He couldn't maintain the red butterfly form for too long, and after recovering to his own body, he continued to run forward without saying a word.

Under the manipulation of the devil, the flame blocked him, and different illusions appeared.Xia De hugged a woman and cried, Xia De shouted outside the burning house, Xia De knelt in front of the grave and covered his face and wept bitterly.
But Xia De ignored these, he ran through the flames like a maze, ignoring the inducing voices and various strange sights.The black mist transformed by the devil followed behind him, and instead of attacking vital points, it kept creating various wounds on the surface of his body.

And Xia De would only turn around and point the [Cross of Blasphemy] behind him when he was in danger, forcing the black mist to retreat a little, and then run forward again.

All he wants now is to get to the destination.

Finally, Shade, who was covered in wounds, rushed out of the burning forest and came to the Elon River outside Oxenfurt Manor.

Oxenfurt Manor is actually adjacent to the Elon River, and there is a small pier outside the manor that is convenient for smuggling, and Shad and Oxenfurt also passed the bridge here last time when they raced horses.

Xia De, who rushed out of the fire scene, felt the power of the golden potion weakening, and at the same time, he also felt the obvious space barrier, just across the ice-covered Elrond River.

He rushed towards the direction of the river, but was forced by the devil to stop at the river beach.At this time, the blood on Xia De's forehead slid down his cheeks, and a gap was opened in the back of his clothes, exposing his bloody back, but it was all worth it.Although he would definitely not be able to defeat the demon in a head-on battle, he was the one who won in the end.

The figure of the devil appeared on the edge of the burning forest amidst the black smoke, with his back to the manor and the burning forest behind him, and farther away were the noisy mountains in the heavy snow, and indistinguishable monsters flying in the night sky:

"There is a superstitious saying that demons and vampires cannot cross the river because the water is clean. If you are walking towards the river in such a hurry, you can't believe in this superstition as a ring magician, right?"

Xia De shook his head, the flames reflected the ice surface [-] meters behind him red, he tried to stand up, but still did not choose to call the doctor:

"Do you really know who I am?"

"Pseudonym John Watson, but you have an inexplicable and mysterious connection with the summoner. In recent months, important events in the Randall Valley have all had your faint shadow. But who you are It's not important, what matters is that you made the wrong choice."

The demon on the shore looked at Xia De, and the fire on the shore illuminated Xia De's face. Xia De held a silver cross in his left hand, sliding from upper right to left, and held a long sword in his right hand, sliding from upper left to right.

Two bright moonlights intertwined into a huge silver cross in front of him, the light at that moment was even more dazzling than the burning forest in the distance:
"Moonlight - Slash!"

He slammed forward sideways, and the big silver cross containing the power of gold hit the demon on the shore.This time, even the ancient evil spirit didn't dare to be slighted, it took a light step back, trying to enter the mirror that suddenly appeared behind it.

But Shad's voice has appeared behind it:
"Don't want to go!"

He kicked the demon, trying to kick it towards the approaching position of the Moonlight Grand Cross.But with a snap of his fingers, time was stopped, the dancing gray snowflakes were still in the air, and the moonlight cross was still in the air.

The demon turned and grabbed Shad by the ankles, throwing him violently to the ground.Xia De supported the ground with one hand, used his strength to break free from the demon's hand, and then turned around with a sword.

Click!

The long sword was grabbed by the demon, and then snapped off abruptly:
"I said, this thing is useless!"

But then, it had to avoid Xia De's left hand wearing the [Demon Hunting Seal].

The black light from the demon's left hand shot towards Xia De's left chest, but was blocked by the silver [Cross of Blasphemy] immediately, and the silver moonlight sword pierced the demon's throat, but was also easily blocked by the demon.

While the devil reached out to block the moonlight sword, Xia De clenched his ring-wearing left hand, and directly hit the enemy in front of him with his fist.The demon didn't dodge this time, and also responded with punches.

After a bang, Xia De flew far away, landed on the ice and rolled several times before stopping.

"If your golden potion can last longer, maybe you really have the upper hand."

The demon looked at the hand that showed signs of severe corrosion due to contact with the [Demon Hunting Seal]:

"You don't think that you can really hunt demons with that ring on. What are you doing?"

It saw Shade hammer the ice with his fist, and then threw something into it.

Xia De, panting heavily, stood up on the ice. Even though the effect of the potion dissipated, his eyes still seemed to be glowing:

"You don't want to play games with me, do you? I used to think about what would happen if someone stronger than you took away Oxenfurt's soul in advance."

With a smile on his face, he slowly retreated away from the devil on the ice, and away from the hole he smashed on the ice:

"I don't know many evil gods, but I know other things. It's just that my nun friend dismissed my idea. Because she thinks that Oxenfurt is just an ordinary person, like most people in this world. I think After thinking about it, I think what she said makes sense. His desire is not stronger than other strange guys I met, so I gave up the idea of ​​letting other existences take away his soul. Stone Oxenfurt, Just a vulgar person."

A huge black shadow slipped under the ice between Shad and the demon on the shore, even the firelight in the forest on the shore could not illuminate the shadow.

The stone mirror demon - Goethe, instinctively felt the danger.

It squinted at Shad:

"What do you want to say?"

"Do you know why I chose the last reward just now?"

Xia De stopped backing, and he took out the rolled up note:
"Because I want to confirm again what your attitude is towards her."

At this moment, Xia De even felt that his heartbeat was louder than the neighing of giant beasts in the distance.The night is already very deep, the first thing of this night is also coming to an end:

"Then I got a very clear answer, you are not as good as her."

"You wouldn't be—"

For the first time since Shad knew this demon, the face that belonged to Oxenfurt showed an expression of astonishment:
"You madman, you actually called."

Click!

Amid the clear cracking sound, the first clear crack appeared on the ice between Shad and the demon.The crack protruded upwards, as if something at the bottom of the water wanted to break through the ice.

And in the next moment, a strong earthquake caused roars in the entire Randall Valley area.In the loud noise, in the light of the fire, in the gray snowflakes flying, under the watchful eyes of Shade and the devil, the entire ice surface of nearly a kilometer downstream of the Elrond River burst, and a person who could not be illuminated by any light Liang's beautiful and noble figure, that huge figure resembling a mermaid, leaped from the ice, danced with the snowflakes in the air, and then fell into the ice floe on the other side with an elegant posture.
