Whispering Poems

Chapter 1849
"I found that this city is really magical. Not only can I see trains on the streets at night, but now I just go around and meet friends who shouldn't be here."

The doctor was joking and enlivening the atmosphere. Seeing that Xia De wanted to thank him, he shook his head and said it was nothing:
"However, in this way, except for the priests, our people are all here now. Why do I suddenly have a bad feeling?"

"Doctor, this is a superstition, don't believe it casually."

Xia De responded casually, and asked the girl in Xiang's arms:

"How did you get here? And, what about her?"

He let go of Dorothy, and asked nervously again.Dorothy and Rezia could get in touch at any time, and it was impossible for them not to know each other's situation.

Goldilocks also knew Shad's worries:

"I was writing a manuscript at home, and then it suddenly appeared here, but it wasn't the city, it was outside the southeast corner of the city. It was an hour ago, and I knew where it was from the children in the village. I wanted to ask directions and how to get into the city, and then I met the doctor who came out of the market."

Dorothy explained the situation as briefly as possible. She is not a weak girl, so she calmed down when she saw Xia De:

"It's strange. My contact with her was blocked by a strange force. But it's not that we can't contact at all, it's just that we communicate through a layer of windows. She said that she was in a foggy place, and there was white fog everywhere. It was a deserted town, and there was no one. I know you can definitely find us, so let her stay still and find a house to rest first."

With a serious expression on his face, Xia De took off the pendant from Dorothy's waist and handed it to Grace and Helen.The Red Butterfly girls used the pendant to perceive it a little bit, and then combined with the map, they immediately came to a conclusion:
"The other hangs on an island in the middle of the lake."

"I will go with you."

Dorothy spoke at once, but Shade stopped her.Not because of distrust of Dorothy's strength, but for another reason:
"I'm sure I can find her, but once I find her, the two of you won't be able to walk together, isn't that more dangerous?"

The last Red Butterfly Day was the farewell banquet for Miss Galina and the second group of negotiating delegations leaving Tobesk.The next Red Butterfly Day will be this Saturday, the 17th of the month of praying for rain.And now, it's only Monday, the 12th day of the month of praying for rain.

Dorothy bit her lip unwillingly, but she also knew that Shade was right.

Xia De looked at the doctor, who nodded and asked in a low voice:
"No problem, I came here to help you, and I can leave at any time. But, have you noticed something is wrong in the city? The wandering spirits wandering in the sky are becoming more and more real."

"I noticed that too."

Dorothy nodded in the same way, confirmed that the guests on the first floor were all in the corner, and no one nearby could hear her, before continuing to explain:

"It took me and the doctor more than half an hour to get here from the city. In the beginning, there was no difference between those ghosts and hallucinations. Now, any ring magician can see them."

Helen in the black dress held up the hem of her skirt and trotted outside to have a look.Although most of their memories are sealed, they are all too familiar with this situation as part of the seal of "Life and Death":
"This is a sign of a problem with the space. It's hard to say what the void beyond the material world is, but at least tonight, the fragile space of this city is connected to death."

This fifteen or sixteen-year-old girl talked about the results that the church has not been able to investigate so far:
"Spatial instability has accumulated to a certain extent, and now large-scale changes are beginning to occur. No, it is not that the dead soul can really leave from death. It is absolutely impossible. This is like a mirror. The instability of space, like a mirror, projects the dead soul into the material world. These are the reflections of ghosts."

"Connect to death? Isn't that tonight, there will be undead walking in Green Lake City at night?"

The doctor asked in surprise, and Grace carefully moved away from him, then nodded:
"If you don't stop it, it will definitely become like this. I don't know how big it is yet. Fortunately, it is not a complete fragmentation of space. At dawn, the power of the sun and the moon will change, which will re-stabilize the order of the world, and then it will be over."

"Meow~"

Mia lazily called out, and Xia De also remembered that more than one person said that the light of the sun and the moon is one of the important foundations for stabilizing the material world, so there will be such a big movement on the night of the lunar eclipse.

"The church should be able to solve the problems in the city. This is the first wave of disasters caused by the unstable space, and the church can withstand it."

Xia De said, and then motioned for the doctor to set off with him immediately.This place is very close to the basement, and he is in his strongest state when he goes home and brings the relic with him.

"Sir, my sister and I will go with you."

Helen tugged on Xia De's sleeve, raised her head and said to him, but Xia De shook his head:
"How long can you survive?"

Summon Grace and Helen with the [Butterfly Calling Flute], and there is a time limit for their appearance. Although the Battle of Randall Valley shows that the 10-minute time limit is most likely because they are worried that Shade will not use the flute and talk nonsense, but the limit definitely exists, but it is not as harsh as 10 minutes.

Helen was speechless for a moment, so Grace also grabbed Shade's sleeve and looked up at him with watery blue eyes:
"No matter how long, we will accompany you until we disappear."

The doctor took a sneak peek at Dorothy's behavior, and was surprised to find that Miss Writer didn't care about this conversation at all.

But Shad still didn't want them to go to the island:

"You are here to accompany Dorothy and protect this hotel. The other ladies should also send people. I don't know what will happen tonight. I need someone to protect this place."

Saying that, he stuffed the cat with a happy face in his arms to Miss Writer:

"By the way, help me keep an eye on this cat, don't let it run around tonight."

Seeing Xia De's firm attitude, they could only promise to stay here.However, they dealt with the red butterfly pendant in Dorothy's hand so that it had the power to locate the other pendant at a short distance, making it easier for Xia De to find it.This is not difficult, after all, two pendants are a pair.

Later, Shad asked Mr. Soren Green to send someone to Megan's cruise ship, informing her to take someone to the lake to pick up Shad and his party who would come back at any time. He went home to get the weapons he needed, and then went out with the doctor under the worried eyes of the girls.

"detective."

The doctor spoke suddenly in the night, with a serious expression on his face.

"Please say."

Xia De thought he had something important to explain.

"If one day you are stabbed to death by a girl, I will not help you. I am a psychiatrist and I have seen many such cases."

"I'll protect myself."

The Green Lake Hotel has a small backyard for unloading, and the horses that pull the cart happen to be resting in the yard.Xia De and the doctor each rode out of the city on a horse. On the way, they noticed that there seemed to be not many police officers patrolling tonight, because the Church's squad had already been dispatched to face the ghost projections in the sky.

After leaving the city, the two didn't need to worry about making too much noise, so they tied the two horses to a tree, and the doctor used the new thaumaturgy "Dark Labyrinth" to protect them. Afterwards, a pair of strange wings grew out of the doctor's back, and Shade quickly approached the lake by relying on [Ragley's jump] and his own speed.

Not only are there densely packed ghosts floating in the sky of the city, but even above Green Lake, but Xia De doesn't care at all.The great lake in the night was unusually quiet. He originally planned to step on the water to land on the island. The difference between the water surface and the land was not big to him, but the doctor had a better idea:

"Look at me."

His hand was lifted, and then a black cube appeared in the palm of his hand.The cube was thrown to the lake by him, and after touching the water, it turned into the coffin made to deal with the labyrinth demon-Aru.

"Spatial items? Or storage space thaumaturgy?"

Xia De was very surprised, this is the ability he wanted from the beginning, but the doctor shook his head:
"It's just that after gaining the power of the demon, the very simple usage developed can only be effective on intangible relics with demon power. Come up, let's go."

"Wait, how do you get up a coffin?"

Before Xia De finished speaking, he saw the doctor jump on the coffin.So Xia De also jumped up, and after the doctor reminded him to stand still, the coffin flew like an arrow off the string, flying on the water toward the direction of the mist in the middle of the lake.

Even though Xia De is still worried about Rezia's situation at this moment, he still finds this scene very strange.

Dr. Schneider's "vehicle" is extraordinary. It would take a lot of time to reach the island by boat or on the water, but after stepping on this coffin, within 3 minutes, the doctor followed Shade's guidance and firmly parked the coffin on the pier on the north shore of the island that Shade is most familiar with.

After they both jumped onto the pier, the coffin turned into a black cube again and was put away by the doctor. Xia De felt that this ability was quite useful:

"Doctor, there may be spatial confusion on this island. You follow me closely, and we should not leave each other's sight. If, if we are really unlucky and separated, you should leave this island first."

Dr. Schneider made a no problem gesture to Shad:
"For space confusion, I also have a certain resistance now, don't worry."

After devouring the demon in the labyrinth, although the doctor failed to obtain the "space" spirit rune, he obviously gained something else.

Shad is already very familiar with this island.The pier is connected to the path in the forest, and through the forest is the town of Green Lake in the mist.

Although Dr. Schneider had seen this place in Mr. Soren Green's dream, he was still quite surprised when he really saw this town this time:

"The vibe here is truly unique, I can only describe it as 'chaotic silence'. My craziest patients would surely calm down if they came here."
