Whispering Poems

Chapter 3262: Damaged Relics

The residents of Fatumunster Island experienced the transition from day to dusk and then back to day in half a minute. However, considering that last summer, there was a global incident where day turned directly into night, this did not cause much disturbance.

The spatial anomaly finally subsided. The only impact the strange phenomenon had on the cedar forest was that the spatial crack opened and swallowed up some of the snow on the ground.

The witch, the apprentice and the cult bishop all looked at the cat (dog). The cat turned impatiently to look at the ice hole, worried whether the troublesome Shade cat could get up by himself.

Then the witch's gaze shifted to Kale Watuna. The cultist pursed his lips, closed his eyes, and prayed earnestly while holding the holy emblem on his chest:
"Fate is unpredictable. It seems that the excessive suppression of fate has caused the silk thread to rebound and fate to oscillate."

"If you play with fate, you will be played by fate in the end."

The witch said what Shade had said during the conversation last night, and felt that her luck might not be as bad as she had imagined. So the man stretched out his hand and let the dice fly back into his hand, and gently tossed it to let it fly back into the air:

"No, this is not playing with fate, we choose our fate and the result this time is"

Boom!

With a loud bang, a black shadow shot out from the pool of water and hit the cultist who threw the dice at a speed that was infinitely close to teleportation.

Although the Twelve Rings Warlock dodged to the side in time, the dice he threw was still taken away by Shad who flew out of the pool.

He crashed to the ground with a loud bang, creating a two-meter-deep hole. He then rolled, bounced, rolled, and bounced for dozens of meters on the snow, and finally came to a stop after breaking several hundred-year-old cedars.

He tried to stand up by holding onto the snow, but couldn't help vomiting blood, but swallowed it at the last moment. He covered his chest with his left hand, and the front of his shirt had long been melted by the black moonlight. Although there were no wounds on his skin, the black moonlight was directly imprinted on his chest.

"She was too cruel, wasn't she?"

"She" smiled gently, without any pity for Xia De:
[Stranger, you feel a power that does not belong to this era. ]

[The spiritual power consumed by the magic-"Black Moon Symbol" is slightly reduced permanently. 】

[Magic - "Nightfall Seal" has a new short-range corrosion effect in addition to the defensive effect. ]

[The power of the magic-"Moonlight Slash" is permanently enhanced, and a new probability of instant death effect is added. ]

"Why can't I master that black moonlight slash? I feel like I should be able to simulate it."

[That was the last light when the moon shattered. It shouldn't have appeared now.]

"So what's on my back?"

Xia De barely stood up and reached back, grabbing the transparent white dice that was deeply embedded in his skin. Although the dice did not directly touch the black moonlight, the moonlight still had an effect on Xia De's body.

The surface of the ten-sided dice was now covered with dense cracks, and there were clearly some black light marks in the original transparent white color.

【This relic has been damaged. 】

"She" continued to remind him, and Shade was even more surprised at the cruelty of the long-haired Luvia:

"Just being hit by the aftermath, this relic was directly damaged? If I wasn't so resistant to moonlight and I didn't summon the shield in time, would I still be alive?"

[This is a relic of destiny. There must be a reason why it is damaged at this moment.]

Although he had just spurted out a mouthful of blood, Xia De was not seriously injured. The black moonlight was different from others, but it was still moonlight, and Xia De had been exposed to the power of destruction before.

When he stood up, the cat was already running towards him happily on the snow, and the man with the twelve life rings floating behind him looked at the dice covered with cracks in Shade's hand.

Although he was hit by the long-haired Luvia, Shade would definitely not be angry with her, so after getting up, he would definitely vent his anger on his only enemy:
"Moonlight Slash!"

He stretched out his hands and crossed them in front of him, and his whole body turned into a cross of blood-red moonlight and rushed forward. Because the black moonlight remained on his body and had not completely disappeared, even though Xia De did not master that kind of power, the blood-red cross moonlight still had a faint black color.

The cultist of the Twelve Rings had no defense at all, he just closed his eyes and sighed softly:

"My Lord, is this another misfortune you have bestowed upon me?"

The intersecting moonlight passed through his body, and when the moonlight stopped and turned into Shade again, the cultist wearing the monocle turned into dust and disappeared. But he would definitely not die like this. Although even the witch did not recognize what this method was, she had heard of the other party's reputation:

"These guys who worship bad luck can gain strength from every bad luck. He must have escaped."

She hurried over to Shad, who was only wearing a few rags, and Miss Larson followed him holding Shad's coat. The rope around Shad's waist had just melted under the water by the moonlight, so when he flew out, he did not affect the person on the other end of the rope.

"what's going on?"

Shade and the witch asked at the same time as they bent down to pick up Mia. Shade immediately waved his hand:

"What happened underwater was just an accident. At least the pollution has been cleared. Who was that person just now? What's the matter with this relic?"

As she spoke, she touched the cat that was lying on her shoulder again. Thinking of the cat's behavior just now, the witch actually felt a sense of unreality:
"Before I answer your question, I must tell you one thing: your cat seems to have scared away an ancient evil with its cry just now."

"Oh? Mia, why are you so rude again? No, no, you don't need to worry too much about this cat. It has a rare 'Son of the Sun' bloodline. Maybe the bloodline took effect just now."

Miss Larson returned the coat to Shad, and while Shad was getting dressed, Miss Reinhardt briefly described what had just happened. Shad didn't care about Mia's abnormality at all. This cat even injured a god with one blow in Moon Bay last summer, so her current behavior was not surprising.

The witch also saw that Shade didn't want to discuss the topic of pet cats, so she sighed:
"Your guess last night was most likely true! The chosen one of destiny is going to appear here!"

"I'm more curious about why this incident involved you. If the cultists didn't lie, you've been involved in three incidents related to them in just half a week since you returned to this island."

He put the damaged dice into his pocket temporarily. He probably knew the reason why the relic was damaged. Not only because it was hit by the long-haired Luvia's Shattered Moonlight, but also because it tried to interfere with fate and then was backfired by fate. This kind of thing is very familiar to Shade.

"Before I returned to my hometown, I had never dealt with the [Cult of Doom]."

The girl with platinum blonde hair shook her head slightly and reached out to check the injury on Shade's chest before he buttoned up his shirt. The black moonlight still remained on his skin, but it was a small matter. The moonlight was slowly being absorbed by him and turned into his spirit.

But the witch didn't know this. She reached out and touched Shade's skin, and felt the temperature of his skin, and she blushed again:
"The operation is terminated. We have cleared the filth here anyway. Let's go back first. Are you really okay? Don't hold on."

But Xia De really felt that he was fine:
"Don't leave yet. There's something at the bottom of the pool. I want to go down and take a look."

"You still want to go down!?"

Miss Reinhart grabbed Shade's sleeve and stared at him with her pale golden eyes:
"No, you're already injured and there's no pollution here. It's my turn to go in this time. Tell me what you're looking for and I'll fish it out."

But Shade didn't know what was exactly down there. Although from the remnant he "saw", Luvia had not prepared anything when she went into the water, and obviously didn't think there was any danger down there, but long-haired Luvia was a powerful girl who could penetrate time and space with one blow, and hit the "present" from the "past" across the long river of time, almost knocking Shade out of his suffocation and directly damaging a relic.

So just because Long-haired Luvia thinks there is no danger doesn't mean there is really no danger:

"Although I scared away the members of the Cult of Doom, they may come back. You and Miss Larson wait for me on the shore. I will let you go only if you have reached the twelfth level."

The witch was a little dissatisfied:

"You also only have nine rings, but I am stronger than you."

"But ever since we met, I've been the one who saved you every time. I know this has something to do with your bad luck, but it's also very telling."

The white-haired girl tried hard to keep her expression from changing, but it proved to be difficult.

Claire Rhinehart couldn't think of a rebuttal for a moment, but she wasn't the stubborn type:
"Well, go quickly and come back quickly. But what happened just now? Who launched that terrible attack?"

This question was not explained by Shade either. As he and the long-haired Luvia became closer and closer, and their movements were very similar, it was not completely incomprehensible that they could resonate across time. Moreover, he had just realized the new power of time before entering the water. But this was definitely related to the local environment. Luvia said that the spring in the snowy mountain was not simple, and there might be secrets hidden here besides the things under the water.

Now that the ice has thawed, the sound of water gushing from the spring is particularly pleasant in the cedar forest. Shade did not waste any time. After putting Mia down again, he tied the rope around his waist again, with the cat looking at him like a fool, and then jumped into the water again.

The feeling of the icy cold spring water was completely different from before. While soaking in this spring, Xia De even vaguely felt that the speed of his spiritual recovery was increasing.

On the way here, Miss Reinhardt had already told me that this spring draws fresh water from cracks in the mountain, so when Shad controlled himself to sink deeper into the spring, he knew very clearly that there was a bottom here, not a direct underground river.
