Whispering Poems

Chapter 1815 The Fortune Teller of the Circus

Xia De knew just now that the four target apples were not normal fruits. Firstly, they were surprisingly hard, and secondly, there were whispering elements attached to them, which meant that these apples were also one of the items produced in the "Dark Moon Faire".

Seeing the end of the "competition", the onlookers off the stage also dispersed, and Ruster Edwards floated around in front of Shad, praising him for his outstanding performance.Tifa walked onto the stage with the two maids and explained to Shad in a low voice:

"The Darkmoon Faire produces a variety of unique derivative specialties. This kind of event relic is always like this. It is dangerous but also has great value. For example, this one-Golden Apple."

Xia De picked up the apple and found that it turned into a heavy piece of pure gold.But if you smell it carefully, there is still a fragrance of apples.

"After eating it completely, it can heal almost all injuries, including irreversible injuries caused by relics. It is a top-level healing item. In addition, after using a specific technique to make potions, it can temporarily increase luck. However, this requires Only a master pharmacist can make it."

Fortunately, although Priest Augustus is not yet a true master potionist, neither Grandma Cassandra nor Audrey and Megan are.

So Xia De temporarily put away the golden apple, discussed it with Tifa, and treated the target boy's injury first, but did not take him off the many nails rashly. The key point is very close, and it is not easy to rescue it rashly for follow-up treatment.

However, Shad promised the boy that he would come back to rescue him after solving the circus troubles, and helped him remove the matchsticks from his eyes and the string from his mouth.The boy had just gone through a nightmare experience, and now he is satisfied with the promise.

He told Shad and the maids what he knew:
"I saw just now that the regimental commander was dragged into the tent by a centaur, oh yes, a strong female centaur, after returning from the village! Oh, and I also saw our new accountant, Mr. Merkel , rushed out of his tent with two guns in hand, and was killed by a parrot with wings! Yes, those were the wings of the parrot Kreacher raised by my teacher, it must be those wings! Mr. Merkel was The winged monster grabbed it and flew south!"

While sobbing, he provided important information to Shad. Leaving aside the situation of the head of the circus, the new accountant should not be able to master the skill of "using two guns". The accountant should not have this skill.

Therefore, the unfortunate Mr. Merkel was very likely to be the gray glove agent sent by Samuel Anjou to the north shore of the lake that Margaret had sent Shade to find.

"This is God's punishment, and we deserve it."

At the end, the boy with a nail in each palm said something shocking:

"I have known for a long time that if you recruit children into the regiment and then take them to the next place to sell, you will definitely be punished by the gods. Even if this can save some children who may be starved to death, more boys and Girls, they lost their lives because of us. Their parents probably thought that they really had the skills to eat, and they didn’t know that they might go to other villages to be slaves. This is our sin , I helped them guard the children who wanted to escape, I, I should be punished."

Shad opened his mouth, and Tifa, who was listening to the conversation beside him, said softly:

"Detective, we can't waste too much time here. Fortune teller."

"Do you have a fortune teller in your circus? Where is it? Have you met each other today?"

The boy was sobbing, and finally answered the question:
"Yes, in that tent over there. I haven't seen her today. She doesn't like to be disturbed. She's a very bad-tempered old woman."

The fortune tellers in the circus are different from regular fortune tellers like Luvia who are registered with the Fortune Teller Association and are actively preparing for the "Registered Fortune Teller Examination".The latter rely on real talents, outstanding talents and acquired hard work to achieve themselves, while the former are a bunch of liars.

If someone dared to compare Luvia with the fortune-teller in the circus, even the purple-eyed girl with a good temper would definitely take action to teach that impolite guy a lesson.

In short, this is Xia De's first impression of the circus fortune-teller. As for the skills of the fortune-teller after being associated with the relic "Dark Moon Circus", then he can only go and see for himself.

After leaving the magician's stage with the girls and Ruster Edwards, the group found a stall selling normal souvenirs in the camp. At this time, a guy with an octopus head and a foul-smelling black slime dripped all over his body. Watchers, are peddling vicious spells of damning nature.

As for the head of the circus that the boy said was taken away by the mare, Xia De originally wanted Rust, who was the most mobile here, to check the situation.But then he was worried that something unsuitable for children was happening in the carriage, so he went to check it himself, and then found that the man and horse just tied the chubby leader wearing a top hat to the door of the cage, and kept beating him with a bloody whip.

If he didn't know the tricks of this circus, Xia De might consider saving him first.But now that he knew what the other party had done, Xia De decided to deal with the fortune-teller who was the core of the "Dark Moon Circus" first.

"What did you think would happen in the carriage?"

Tifa, who was walking beside Xia De, asked softly, seeing that Xia De faltered and refused to speak, a bright smile appeared on his face.

The fortune teller's pointed tent is located in the northwest corner of the entire camp, between the open space where the circus members hang their clothes and the exclusive carriage of the circus leader.Because this "Blue Star Circus" itself is not very rich, although it can be seen that the owner of the pointed tent has carefully maintained the tent, the oldness of the tent still cannot be concealed.

"There is not a lot of information about the members of the relic [Dark Moon Faire], which is polluting knowledge. However, according to the information that the lady gave us, we must first defeat the fortune-teller, and then face her fortune-telling before we can exile her. "

Tifa provided the news, and Shad directly felt something was wrong with the tent:

"Space power. The space inside is probably far larger than what we observed from the outside."

"Be careful."

The black-haired maid said softly, getting ready with the two girls behind her.Xia De looked at the floating girl's soul again. She looked very excited, and obviously understood that the worst enemy was inside.

"Let's go."

Xia De opened the curtain of the tent and walked in first. Even though he was mentally prepared, he was immediately shocked by the scene in front of him.

Above his head, in front of him, on his left and right sides, and even under his feet, there are boundless galaxies in the black deep sky.The stars twinkled with each other at a wonderful frequency, and the sea of ​​stars seemed to flow in all directions. The vibrating four elements and the wonderful spirit that made up this space made Xia De really sense the power of the starry sky.

"No, it's not a real starry sky, I can't feel the moon!"

The three girls and souls behind him also followed in. The entrance is a curtain that seems to be integrated with the deep space, but after entering, they can no longer be found.They were also surprised by the sight before them, but then they saw, together with Xia De, a woman with three heads riding on a broom.

She is wearing a fuchsia robe, and each of her three bewitching and beautiful heads is wearing a black peaked hat embellished with the sun, moon and stars.Of course, this kind of dress that only appears in fairy tales is very useful for scaring country people, but in fact, the fortune tellers of the city's prophet association will definitely not wear it like this.

"Wearing something so corny and weird to work will make your co-workers laugh."

This is what the purple-eyed girl said when Xia De asked about Luvia.

"on a broomstick"

Xia De resisted the urge to comment on the image of the other party, and saw the three-headed fortune-teller in the starry sky, riding a broom and circling around the crowd.Each of the three heads speaks different languages, and they are all languages ​​of an older era that are extremely difficult to distinguish:

"You're all going to die!"

"You can live!"

"I want you to live rather than die!"

The noisy noise made people upset, and the laughing fortune teller shook his fingers. The galaxy, which originally had a magnificent and magnificent aesthetic feeling, was going into chaos because of her command.

Xia De was about to make a move when Tifa beside him said softly:

"Can we come?"

She clasped her hands together in front of her body:
"Since the maids are here, you don't need to do it. Of course, if the maids are not strong enough, please help me with Miss Edwards."

"Ok."

Xia De then gave up the chance to do it to the three girls. Since they were assigned by the great witch to accept the task, they naturally came prepared.

The three faced each other and held hands, forming a standard triangle, and then closed their eyes together and turned their faces upward.

Tifa's eight-ring life ring appeared behind each other with the seven-ring life rings of the other two, and the light of the life rings illuminated their beautiful faces.But what lit up was not any of the spiritual runes on the life rings of the three people, but the life ring itself flashed an ambiguous and indistinguishable white light.

Those rays of light gradually converged to the center of everyone's life ring until they formed an abstract question mark representing the holy emblem of the ancient god "Chaos Witch".Although the symbol in the center of Tifa's life ring is still translucent, it is relatively clear. After all, she is a Witch Apprentice, while the symbols of the other two girls are extremely vague.

Although it was the first time they met, Xia De also understood that they were using the power shared by the Great Witch of Balance.
