Whispering Poems

Chapter 1877 Enlightenment - Clock Tower Lovers
"Speaking of which, the black mist camp is also full of chains of great crimes"

Xia De thought about this again, and then decided to ask himself the question at the moment:

"Is there any reason why you ask me this question?"

"The chains you hold are not the power that anyone can hold. Cherish this power. Now you may not understand what it means, but one day you will realize that the person who gave you this power , What kind of gift did I give you?"

This answer is basically equivalent to no answer, but at least it shows that the [Great Sin Chain] is a very unique power. Xia De knew it was unique from the beginning. After all, he has only Been exposed to this one.

You know, even if it is a relic that can directly affect the Ring Warlock's life ring and "another me", so far he has only seen that mirror in the underground ruins of Tobesk.

The transaction has been completed. In the raging flames at the other end of the rift, on the right side of Mr. Richard Jackman who used his spirit body to seal the rift, a corpse lying on the ground unexpectedly appeared in the flames. And the corpse was clearly the same as the soul.

The soul couldn't move because the crack was blocked, so the corpse couldn't move either.But in the eyes of Xia De and Miss Higgins, the two are gradually approaching until they become one.

"Spatial coincidence? Or is the earth moving?"

Naturally, no one answered this question. After obtaining his body, the man who was suffering in the flames actually stood up.The god at the top of the bell tower waved his hand, and a golden light appeared, temporarily blocking the fissures in the ground where flames spewed out.

Although the flames were still burning behind the crack, the young knight with scars on his body still staggered against the flames, step by step to the crack opened by the gods.He could see everyone at the top of the clock tower through this crack, and naturally he could also see the elderly Mrs. Miles.

Even though his soul was enduring severe pain at this time, even though there was no power on this long-dead body, he still relied on his last wish and the guilt of his life, and finally came to the bell tower with difficult steps.

The promise made half a century ago, after waiting year after year, after countless sunrises and sunsets, is finally realized in this dilapidated and weird clock tower.When she saw the figure that appeared countless times in the dream coming from the fire, and heard the heavy footsteps appearing in the clock tower, even though Mrs. Miles had prepared her whole life for this moment, she still trembled all over her body. Welling tears blurred vision:

"Richard!"

The stumbling knight also called out that name:

"Sarah!"

Xia De frowned slightly. Although the young knight walked out of the crack, although the soul and the body reunited, it didn't look like a living person, it was just a body manipulated by the soul.

However, the soul can be regarded as being free in this way, which is at least much better than sealing the fissures of the demonic flames.

Miss Higgins, at least, didn't care whether the man lived or died at all.For the sake of being moved, she returned the rusty knight sword in her hand to the man who still smelled of sulfur. Xia De reached into his pocket and took out a sword that could be worn on The wreath on his head, and handed it to the trembling Mrs. Miles.

The agreement between the two back then was that Mrs. Miles would weave a wreath of parsley, sage, rosemary and thyme blooming at the intersection of her hometown to welcome her lover back, but Shad could not know this in advance, so his wreath was Woven with roses, laurel, baby's breath and tulips.He didn't even make it himself, but bought it from the florist on Silver Cross Avenue, run by Adelina's maids—garlands were also a common ritual symbol.

Mrs. Miles took the garland with trembling hands, and stared at the young knight who put the sword back on his waist with eyes blurred by tears.

Then, both of them walked towards each other.The young Richard Jackman bowed his head slightly, and the elderly Sarah Miles put the wreath on his head.

The two pairs of eyes stared at each other, and then they embraced tightly:
"I'm back, Sarah."

"Welcome back, Richard."

Sentences that should have been uttered many, many years ago have not been uttered until now.

The god watched this scene with a smile, and was very satisfied with the stories unfolded before the eyes of mortals, which are more precious than gold.Miss Higgins' yearning for love reappeared in her heart, and at the same time she complained that when she was young, she didn't take the initiative to pursue the beautiful girls around her.

At this moment, Xia De also has many new ideas in his mind.He really admired the two people in front of him, whether it was Mrs. Miles who spent her whole life waiting for a promise that was unlikely to be fulfilled, or the young knight who used his soul to block the promise of a reunion. The terrible demon flames are enough to be written into poetry, and have been sung and praised for thousands of years.

"Is this loyalty to love?"

He thought silently in his heart, and thought of himself, and his relationship with the girls.However, he was no longer confused.Even if he can't be like the two people in front of him, he only cares about one person for the rest of his life in his heart, but he can still do it. In order to wait for a person, in order to fulfill the promise he made, even if he uses all his strength, he will definitely Live up to no one.

The two hugging were sobbing, this scene had been waiting for too long for both of them.Their hugs were so hard, as if they were going to rub each other into each other's bodies, and they would never be separated again.

"Oh!"

Miss Higgins suddenly let out a sigh of horror, because she really saw that the body of the living Mrs. Miles was merging with the body of the dead knight.The souls who missed each other wanted to embrace each other tightly, so the bodies that separated the souls really merged according to their ideas.

First the chest, then the arms, then the head.They slowly sat down by the fire, their bodies gradually hunched until their bones touched each other and forcibly fused together amidst the teeth-piercing sound.

"That's why I said, it's a horror story at all."

Xia De thought in his heart, stopping Miss Higgins to prevent her from approaching:
"Look carefully, this is not something we can stop."

Black smoke drifted out from the two twisted bodies, and the choking sulfur smell became stronger than before.The knight's soul with demonic flames is so hot. When the temperature of the soul itself bursts out due to emotion, the temperature melts the body, conforming to the master's will, so that they will never be separated.

Mrs. Miles did not resist, and the melting of her body could not prevent her from touching the soul of her lover.After the scorching heat gradually radiated, Shad and Miss Higgins were forced to retreat, and the black flames completely engulfed them.And when the flames dissipated, what was left beside the bonfire were only two bones fused together.

Since the Green Lake incident, Shade has seen many different fusion monsters.But only the white bones he saw at this time, in his opinion, not only was it not scary and weird, but also had a sense of holiness.

Skeletons are twisted and intertwined with bones, and bone spurs are intertwined with each other.And the skeleton itself has the color of white jade, with strong elements of miracle and blasphemy.

Next to the bones, the souls of Mrs. Miles and Mr. Jackman holding hands, looked at their corpses blankly.The god smiled and pointed to the strangely shaped bone, and let it come to Shade and Miss Higgins:
"Do you understand?"

The two touched the bones with their hands respectively, and then different visions appeared behind them.

Behind Miss Higgins, at the end of the nine steps, the phantom of the tenth step slowly appeared.And behind Xia De, in the thick steam fog, accompanied by the sound of sirens and bells, on the huge brass ring that slowly emerged, a brass-colored aura that symbolized "enlightenment" appeared, just like in the dim bell tower. A copper-colored sun emerging from the top.

[If you love someone, you will wait for her all your life; if you love everyone, you must guard all the happiness.The attraction of soul and soul, the fusion of body and body, and loyal love can span a long time and distant space.The furthest distance in the world is the longing of soul and soul. 】

[Outlander, you have witnessed the story of "Lovers in the Bell Tower". 】

All of this is logical, as if it should belong to Shad:

[Outlander, you have engraved the brass Enlightenment Rune - Clock Tower Lover. 】

Unsurprisingly, the last spiritual rune of Xia De's sixth ring appeared the moment his hand touched the skeleton.

He turned his head to look at his life ring, and understood that this spirit rune was a fusion of his heart's true understanding of "loyalty" and the emotion of witnessing this story.

Mysuo has not yet appeared, which means that he only understands the story, but has not yet understood the power of the story.But this is enough, Xia De has countless things in his heart at the moment, and he wants to talk to his girls.Others' stories are over, but his story has just begun.

"Your soul can exist in the material world for 365 days, and then it will go to the end."

God said to Mrs. Miles and the young knight, and they bowed deeply in thanks.Later, Shad and Miss Higgins also bowed together, expressing their thanks to the gods.

As for the fused skeleton, it slowly floated towards the still existing crack, and then replaced the original knight's soul, sealing it on the huge gap in the ground.The pitch-black flames wanted to escape from the gap, but were absorbed by the bones, making them hug each other more and more closely, and gradually melting them, merging with the crack.

In the end, the holy white bones completely filled the cracks, perfectly blocking the exit of the flames.As for the remaining black flames on the ground, they were all absorbed by the strange bones.
