Whispering Poems

Chapter 1701 Skull and Demon Curse

"you sure?"

Xia De almost stood up and asked this question. Killing blood relatives and living sacrifices represent many things in ritual science.And such a cruel behavior has once again confirmed what Megan and Audrey have always worried about-their ancestors absolutely have no good intentions for all descendants.

"But why?"

Ordinary man Professor Manning could not understand.

"She didn't know either, neither when she was alive nor when she died. I could feel that she was also afraid of that place and wanted to escape from it. She was not very old before her death, and the memories of her life made her dehumanized The soul is instinctively afraid."

"Besides these, what else does she know?"

Shad asked again, and Durut Giles nodded:

"In the beginning, she only repeated very simple sentences and asked me to collect some weird things. I thought they were items that could restore her soul to normal, but after collecting them all, those materials just turned into a Useless keys."

He unbuttoned it, took off the pendant hanging around his neck and handed it to Shad.

It was a white crystal key, the size and shape of the key post were very close to the two Meghan had already obtained.The front and back sides of the key handle are sapphire and obsidian.Hold it up to the light, and you can see a phantom of a little girl swinging on a swing.

"The most difficult material to find is the white stone crystal with natural black spots. It took me a lot of effort to find out that someone had this material in the black market in Tobesk, so I traveled thousands of miles from Weilun for this material. Dale, came to join my distant relative, Viscount Chris Randall. I should call him uncle, but the curse caused by the tomb robbery included keeping me poor, so I didn't bother my distant relative frequently .”

He saw Xia De showing interest in the key:

"Sir, if you need it, it's yours. This thing has no effect on us. However, after making the key, the recovery speed of Rust's intelligence and humanity is significantly faster."

Xia De nodded. According to his guess, it is the angel-level relic "Soul Story Book" that controls all the souls on the island.Then, after completing the duties given by that book, the souls on the island can "go on", and the souls who left the island stay.

So, he asked Professor Manning to be a witness, and exchanged this key for Shade's guarantee that he would not report the other party and would intercede with Edwards' descendants.

The last thing Xia De wanted to know was, of course, about the bones of the angel of death.Durut Giles still remembered the two finger bones and the unremarkable piece of bone, but he didn't know what it was, and he didn't have any more clues about the skeleton.

However, when he tried to ask the soul of the girl who was playing with his hair, the girl actually gave the answer:

"Gills, Giles, father still has half a skull! If you can't touch that skull, you will be sent away!"

This certainly does not mean that only half of the skull of the thirteen-ring magician is left.

After receiving the unexpected information, Xia De finally showed a satisfied smile.Seeing that Xia De had basically finished asking, Professor Manning said to him:
"Mr. Watson, I will be a witness to ensure that he will not continue to rob graves in the future, but will be a teacher in Tobesk honestly. You see, can you solve the curse on him?"

Hearing the professor's request, Durut Giles, who was entangled by the soul, showed a complicated expression on his face.He knew that he had done something wrong to end up where he is now, but he didn't expect this old man to value him so much.

Xia De naturally agrees, but he also has conditions:

"I respect Professor Manning, but it doesn't mean that I fully trust you, the grave robber. If I cure you, I want you to sign a contract with me, promising that you will never rob the grave again."

He had recently finally finished almost his first reading of "The Book of Demons of Malpas" and picked up some new tricks.Unlike the knowledge in "Pink Book" and "Secret of Immortality" that can be practiced at any time, it is difficult to find application scenarios for the knowledge in the Book of Demons, but this time it is very good.

"Thank you for giving me a chance. After this incident, I also understand. I plan to live in Tobesk for a long time and face my life well."

Durut Giles said, and the spirits clapped their hands around him repeating his words, and Shad nodded, making another invitation to reach out and shake hands.

The two hands were held together, and it took Xia De a long time to hear "her" reply:

[The nature and source cannot be judged only by shaking hands.You need to go further.]

"No, I'm not interested in further contact with him."

Xia De said in his heart, and then let go of the opponent's hand:
"It's 03:30. At five o'clock, wait for me on the first floor of the Three Cats Hotel next to the Singing Square in the north of the city. I'll find a curse expert."

This refers to the doctor. Of all the people Shade knew, he and Luvia were both good at curse-related powers.It's just that Luvia has been busy with stargazing recently, so Xia De planned to trouble the doctor.

"Ok."

Durut nodded immediately, and Xia De looked at Professor Manning again:
"Professor, I will trouble you this time too."

"You are so kind, it's nothing. I just don't want to see young people go astray and keep falling. Durute has done something wrong, and he will find a way to pay it back."

Afterwards, Xia De left from Professor Manning's house, and then went directly to the east of the city in a carriage to find Dr. Schneider.At that time, the doctor had just finished treating the patient who had the last appointment in the afternoon. Seeing that Xia De came without saying hello, he thought something had happened.I was relieved to hear that I wanted to ask him to help a cursed person see a doctor:

"You really scared me. The Three Cats Hotel, right? No problem, let's go now. To be honest, every time I see you barging into my place with a serious face, I feel a little bit in my heart."

"Doctor, is this considered a mental illness?"

"No, strictly speaking, it's just a stress disorder. If you're interested, I can tell you about it on the way. In the field of psychology, this is a very cutting-edge research direction."

The drizzle that started at noon had stopped long ago, but the water stains on the ground hadn't evaporated completely.In the evening, the Psalm Square, although it would not be said that it was full of mud because of this, but looking at the smiles on the faces of the shoe shine boys outside the square, I knew it was not easy to walk here.

Durut Giles had arrived early, and was sitting alone in a seat against the wall, reading a book when Shad and the doctor came in.The soul of Ruster Edwards sat on the table, waving desperately, trying to attract his attention.

Dr. Schneider twitched his nose suddenly, then motioned for Xia De to exit the hotel with him.

The two went around to the remote alley on the side of the hotel, and stopped above the entrance of the sewer.

"There is a very familiar smell in this curse, I didn't expect this kind of thing to happen again."

The doctor is half excited and half helpless:

"Cursed by the devil. I smelled the stench trying to corrode the soul as soon as I entered the door. There is no doubt that he was cursed by the devil. There is definitely a real evil spirit on the island you mentioned."

Xia De was taken aback:
"Ah? Is it really a demon? That island is called the 'Island of Demons', and it's actually true. But my [Vision] didn't see any trace of demonic power."

"It's normal. It's not that the devil gave him the power to turn him into a devil like Stone Oxenfurt you mentioned, but the devil cursed him. This is a very hidden curse. If you want to see , unless you take out his soul and look at his soul. However, I can’t confirm what kind of evil spirit it is, this curse is not unique, many guys will know it, and I will too.”

The doctor said casually, frowning and thinking about what it was this time.

Shad knew the seriousness of the problem:
"In this way, the troubles on Green Lake's central island are not only the thirteen-ring diviners and an angel-level relic that manipulates souls. Besides the cultists and other groups of illegal ring magicians, there is another unknown demon? What the hell is he planning?"

"Is the situation so complicated this time?"

The doctor raised his eyebrows, but he wasn't nervous about it:
"I'm not going to see the cursed person inside. His curse is not complicated. I'll go back and make a potion. I'll send it to the Three Cats Hotel on weekends and let him pick it up by himself. As for the demon Although I don't know what you are going to do in Green Lake, but from your description, the other party is your enemy?"

"Yes, there are some difficult enemies. Judging from the current situation, the thirteen rings, demons, and angel-level relics should not be all I have to deal with."

"Relax, when is your enemy not tricky?"

The doctor patted Shad on the shoulder:

"You go to investigate more specific information about that demon, or obtain items that are sufficient to prove its identity. I will prepare to see if I can find a new way to move across space, or I can buy a train ticket myself. Fortunately, Green Lake is not far from our side, at least not as far as Randall Valley."

He shook his head:
"If you need help in the Green Lake area, I can also play a role. The last time I was in Randall Valley, I wanted to help you, but in the end it was just a tour. Oh, and, the demon looks very Good at curse ability, I know your curse resistance is very high, but be careful."

"No problem doctor, leave it to me to investigate."

After finishing speaking, Xia De thought of another thing:

"The [Mirror Association] has already appeared in the Green Lake area. Not only did I meet the [Mirror Man], but I also met a pair of twin brothers who lost one eye each, and they are both eight rings."

The doctor thought for a while, and then he knew that Shade connected them with his own experience in his youth:
"You mean, they are the pair of brothers I met when I dealt with other demons more than ten years ago? They really didn't heal their eyes."

The doctor smiled:
"It would be a good thing to meet them in Green Lake. The grievances many years ago may have a chance to resolve together this time."
