Whispering Poems

Chapter 1939 The Meaning of Blindness

Xia De in the fire had quietly drank a big mouthful of essence, and at the same time splitting the sea of ​​flames, he used his newly recovered spirit to strike another moonlight slash.The gorgeous moonlight was blocked by the giant flame hand, and it did not affect the fortune-teller at all.

"Be careful!"

He said to the two brothers with the life ring floating behind them, the firelight illuminated the faces of the three, and none of them flinched.The giant fortune teller waved his giant hand towards them, and the three of them jumped back together. The Edwards brothers held hands again, and under the combined spellcasting, the huge mirror directly floated in the air.

The mirror reflected the figure of the flame giant. Shade, who was prompted by the two brothers, threw a thunderbolt that hit the mirror and destroyed it.The flames seemed to dim for a moment, but then the ground shook again, and the fortune teller in the fire recovered.

Another large piece of flame was spilled by him, and the flames that fell on the ground quickly turned into different figures of flames.All of these human figures have souls, some of them look like dead spirits, and a few are the souls of living people.

Needless to say, these are the aborigines of Green Lake Town and their descendants. Shade doesn't want to do anything to them, which will speed up the process of the ceremony.But when those flaming figures frantically pounced on the three of them and tried to blow themselves up, they had no choice but to fight back.

Even if there is a fire explosion, black blood will still flow out and soak the ground.Although he didn't know much about the ritual, Shade knew it would only make things worse.

"That does not work!"

Xia De, who felt hot and dry from drinking the essence just now, said to the two brothers:
"Do you still have a way? If there is no way, I will take the risk and try."

"If we have a way, we don't have to wait for you to come!"

The two brothers responded loudly, and the mirrors unfolded around them one after another, and the monsters who came out of the mirrors faced the flame figures so that they could continue to fight against the giant ancestors in the bonfire.

"Okay, buy me some time, don't worry about those burning men, and help me stop the projection of your ancestors."

The two brothers held hands, turned their backs to the burning men who surrounded them from all directions, and let them destroy the mirror summons.They looked up at the huge flaming figure above the bonfire. While it was waving at Shad who was rushing towards it, the Edwards brothers gritted their teeth and used the few remaining spirits to let the ring's core spirit rune [space] once again Blooming with light:

"Stop!"

The huge flaming figure stopped for less than a second before moving again, but this moment of pause gave the two brothers a chance to use their last and most dangerous move.

Xia De took advantage of the space won by the two brothers and quickly approached the bottom of the bonfire. It wasn't that he didn't expect to use [Ragley's Jump], but that the space thaumaturgy around the cluster of flames would be greatly affected.

He can't look back, so he can only listen to "her" describe what happened behind him.

In the blind eyes of the two brothers, in the dark eye sockets, a little gray light appeared.The gray light spots in the two eye sockets rotated rapidly, and as the two brothers raised their respective hands, those dim gray lights drifted out from the eye sockets, annihilating all the surrounding substances in the process of rotating in the air, After touching the flame, even the flame disappeared as a distorted vortex when the gray light spots in the blind eyes passed by.

The effective blocking gave Xia De the best chance, and he finally threw himself into the flames.

The eyes of the two brothers couldn't see clearly what Shade did after entering the flames. They could only see the blurred figure of the man standing in the flames with his arms outstretched.

The flame couldn't hurt Xia De, but made him feel warm.Xia De took a deep breath, and as he communicated the power of the primordial fire flowing in his body, the flames of the bonfire swayed and continued to shrink towards the bottom of the campfire until the strange flame was absorbed into Shade's body and was absorbed by the primordial fire. transformed into spirit.

This is the first time Shade has used the power of absorbing flames after acquiring this ability from Sister Devlin.What the nun said was right. Although he had the ability to transform flames into spirits, the conversion efficiency was extremely low, not even as good as a drop of the pink essence on his lips.

As the flame giant continued to shrink, the continuous stream of fire men that appeared in the sea of ​​fire sprinkled had no follow-up, and were quickly wiped out by the two brothers.The swaying bonfire was continuously absorbed by Shad during this period. When they turned around and planned to continue helping Shad with their blind eyes, the human figure made of flames had already disappeared due to the reduction of flames.

Soon, only the layer attached to Xia De's body remained of the flames jumping above the bonfire.And as Xia De inhaled for the last time, all the fire was finally completely absorbed by his body, and the black firewood under his feet, which was still warm, quickly cooled completely in the rain.

The rain soaked Shade's newly dried clothes, but he had no time to care about it.After jumping out of the remains of the bonfire, the three of them looked back to back at the cemetery that had regained its coldness, looking at the unidentifiable black shadows deep in the fog.

The ground was still shaking, but this time there was no other attack.Under the remains of the bonfire, blood-red trees quickly took root.After Xia De cut it with his sword, another tree grew again.After careful observation, it was discovered that the tree was connected to a huge tree root lurking underground. Unless Xia De could uproot the giant tree whose body was unknown, he would have no way to destroy the red tree.

After waiting for a long time, nothing else happened. After confirming their safety, the two Edwards brothers sat down on the ground of the bloody cemetery regardless of their image. In the area illuminated by the bonfire, except for the fact that the ground became more blood-red and there was a big blood-red tree, amidst the pattering rain, the dense fog in the cemetery was exactly the same as in the gloomy forest outside.

The consumption of the two brothers was too great, but they tried to destroy the souls of the townspeople many times before Shade appeared, and they still told their findings:

"The souls of the townspeople here are just the projections of their soul fragments and other soul energy. The thaumaturgy you just used to annihilate their souls is by far the most thorough way to destroy them. Their soul bodies, it seems I was also injured because of your move just now."

"Their soul bodies are probably contained in an angel-level relic held by your ancestors."

Xia De also expressed his own judgment, and then praised without hesitation:

"The last power you used was space annihilation, right? It's really powerful."

Wood Edwards looked at Shad with empty eye sockets:

"Many years ago, our brother once encountered a rather terrifying enemy. He blinded our eyes, but also made us experience the ultimate madness and destructive power."

He raised his hand to cover that eye, with a complex expression on his face:
"Master Hidden Mirror has the ability to restore our eyes, or at least install a magic eye. But we refused. Only in this state of blindness can we experience and have the power to destroy space. To maintain this power, it is best Keep the eyes damaged, this is the price of power"

They helped each other to their feet, and Glass Edwards also said:

"We met that guy near the Green Lake Hotel. He also came to Green Lake City, but he didn't know what he was going to do. Compared with our ancestors, my brother and I think that guy is the truly terrifying person."

Xia De knew that they were talking about Dr. Schneider, so it was not convenient to continue this topic:
"What are the tree roots entwined on your life rings? Thaumaturgy or rituals that can directly affect your life rings are rare."

But the two brothers didn't know, they could only feel that when they cast spells, those strange tree roots would intercept part of the power, weakening the spell casting effect:
"Probably one of the rituals of the ancestors."

"So can you go now? Time is urgent, I must continue to go deep into the island. Do you stay here to rest, or go with me?"

He thought he had gained two "teammates", but the two brothers shook their heads:

"In the plan prepared in advance, this situation has been expected. It's not too bad now. While we can still move, we want to try to see if we can communicate with the outside of the island. We have to try to contact the 'Hidden Mirror' 'Your Mightiness."

"What are you going to do?"

Xia De asked, and the two brothers held hands again, and then put their heads together.Xia De didn't know what kind of thaumaturgy they used, he could only see that the heads of the two were gradually "fused" together.

But this is not a fusion of flesh and blood, but a certain overlapping of space.Moreover, they didn't completely fuse their heads, but only half of their faces with blind eyes overlapped.

When the two blind eyes overlapped, Wood Edwards took out a red velvet bag with a drawstring top from his pocket.After taking out the bronze eyeball inside, with trembling hands, he put the magic eye, which was at least at the Keeper level, into the overlapping eye sockets of the two.

The metal eyeballs entered the eye sockets, and it was obvious that the eyeballs were not controlled by their brains, moving around in the eye sockets like living things like parasites.

But soon, the eyeballs quieted down.Following the bronze lines, they spread from the eye sockets of the two to the two faces, and a divergent light shot out from the engraved pupil of the bronze eyeball.

In that ray of light, the thirteen-ring magician whom I hadn't seen for a long time, and the "Mirror Man" Al Harken, who wore a strange mirror-shaped pendant on his ear, actually appeared.

It is not an entity, similar to the fortune teller in the fire just now, it is also a form of projection.Shad could even see that he seemed to be on the shore of Green Lake, and the nighttime scenery of Pukhov village was vaguely hidden in the white mist behind the mirror man.
