Mystery: Shadow of Order

South of Backlund, White Cliff Town.

This is a small town not far from Backlund. The Stratford River flowing out of the nearby mountains turns beside a cliff, leaving a large area of ​​fertile land, but the residents here are not living very well.

Before the passage, the land was valued by some gentlemen from Backlund and leased. Although money was given, it was far less than the output of the land itself after the passage. Even if the men here go to work in Backlund's factories, the benefits they get are not enough.

After the abolition this year, these gentlemen gave up the leased land and returned the land to the residents here. The plummeting land and food prices have caused residents who have regained their land to give up planting and go to work in nearby factories.

The easternmost part of this town is the home of Wood Johnson, who used to be a coachman for a decent gentleman in Backlund. Although the income is much less than that of factory workers, the income of 27 pounds a year, and no need to consider their own room and board, is still much better than that of workers.

But Wood was fired last year and was sued by his former employer in March for theft. Fortunately, with the help of a kind barrister, Wood not only won the lawsuit, but also received compensation.

Wood, who received the compensation, quickly renovated his house and built a new house for his son who was admitted to the Backlund Institute of Technology, but the son who lives in the Institute of Technology will only go home on weekends.

But on the bed in that uninhabited room sat a lady, a pale lady. Although no candles were lit, she could still see her facial features clearly from the faint light, with a high nose bridge and plump lips, but she lacked the feeling of a person, like a wax statue.

In a dim room, a woman with a pale face who doesn't look like a real person will only give people the feeling of seeing a ghost.

Alysia leaned against the wall, her breathing was a little short, she was hit by the small-caliber artillery on his doll's left arm during the battle with the "alchemist" this morning, even if she made a move in advance. A little bit of preparation but also not lightly injured.

But this was not without gain. In order to lure the Beyonders of the Church of Steam away, Alysia calmly retreated after a brief confrontation with Horamick. But as long as she leaves the spiritual world and returns to the real world, she will be found soon.

This made Alysia realize that she should be locked by some kind of ability. Holding the "Free Walker" can isolate the induction, not to mention that as a favored person of "Uncertain Mist", only an angel-level divination can divination her whereabouts.

In the later battles, she could feel that the ability to lock herself came from the alchemy puppet, but she was not sure whether that ability would last forever, whether she would be locked as long as she appeared near Backlund.

But she couldn't leave Backlund. As for killing the "alchemist", not to mention that the alchemist puppet was always fighting with her, it would be extremely difficult to destroy that puppet, even if she was used. Another seal on his body.

The battle at the demigod level is impossible to end in a short period of time. This is Backlund. As the archbishop of the Church of the God of Steam and Machinery, Horamick has plenty of helpers. Once entangled for too long, it will only be detrimental to Alysia.

She herself has very little combat experience, and it is difficult to gain the upper hand in the face of the alchemy doll, so she laid a trap this morning to try to destroy the alchemy doll.

But after eliciting the doll, Alysia discovered not only the doll, but also a Sequence 3 "Bishop of Fear". As soon as he appeared, he used a spirit body the size of a mountain to block the vicinity, preventing Alysia from entering the spirit world.

Although it is dangerous, Alysia knows that this is the last chance, and the helper who may come next time may not only be a Sequence Three. What surprised Alysia was that the "Bishop of Fear" didn't take action after blocking the vicinity, and just let the alchemy doll fight her.

Alysia used another demigod-level magical item on her body, a pair of gloves called "Iron Reaper". With the "weak point attack" ability given by this magical item, it was clear that the alchemy puppet locked herself. The ability comes from the right eye.

After that, the alchemy puppet was introduced into the trap prepared in advance, and the "fatal attack" ability was used to forcibly pull out a pair of eyes of the alchemy puppet at the cost of bearing the alchemy puppet's left-arm artillery, and directly disassemble the puppet. unravel.

Although the "Iron Reaper" gave Alysia the ability to temper her body, she was seriously injured by a mysterious artillery gun, even with a small caliber.

However, the terrorist attack power of the "Iron Reaper" made the "Bishop of Fear" unresponsive for a while, and Alysia found a "loophole" that was blocked, and used the ability of "Free Walker" to leave directly.

After dismantling the doll, Alysia tried several times to escape from the spiritual world and returned to the real world, only to be sure that the Church of Steam could no longer lock herself. But after a period of delay, her injury became more serious.

Although Alysia also has a magical item called "Crimson Heart", which was formed by a blood clan viscount killed by the Tamara people of the Fourth Epoch. But the healing power of the "Pharmacist" pathway comes from the configuration of herbs. To heal her injuries, she needs a lot of herbs rich in spirituality.

She had already written to Rawls and asked him to help her collect herbs. After that, she came to White Cliff Town, where a small amount of herbs grew, and prepared some simple potions to treat herself and keep her injuries from getting worse.

With the rapid breathing, Alysia's eyelids gradually became heavy, and the scene in front of her was also blurred and ghosted, but she was woken up again. In front of her, in this small house, a magical scene appeared.

The green pea vines fell from the unknown nothingness, covering the surrounding area like a torrential rain. They intertwined and intertwined, quickly forming an indoor forest, spreading up in layers.

The original roof and surrounding walls seemed to have disappeared, leaving a magical space composed of green pea vines, and even the simple wooden bed under Alycia had become a hammock woven from vines.

Alysia was just about to use the "Free Walker" to enter the spiritual world, but it seemed to be completely isolated from the spiritual world, and her attempt failed. Before she could find the loopholes in this space with the help of the "Mist of Uncertainty", a soft but emotionless voice entered her ears:

"I have no ill will towards you, otherwise after you escape from Anthony's blockade, I will attack you."

Alicia watched the pea vine forest above her head slowly drop two arm-thick vines, and then quickly intertwined to form a hammock-like seat, and a figure appeared on the seat.

She has waist-length chestnut hair, straight eyebrows, and a pair of blue and deep eyes that seem to condense an ocean. She was only wearing a white Intis-style shirt on her upper body, a pair of close-fitting black trousers on her lower body, a thin rapier on her waist, and a pair of black boots on her feet.

Even sitting on a hammock-style seat woven from pea rattan is extraordinarily heroic.

Gu Shuyalishia didn't try to get up from the hammock under her, and there was no fluctuation in her dark gray eyes looking at the woman. In this mysterious and fairy-tale space, the mysterious powerhouse who suddenly appeared did not let her. There are emotional ups and downs.

"Bernadette Gustav, the owner of the Dawn, has a hostile relationship with the Church of Steam." When speaking of the Church of Steam, Bernadette's face showed instinctive disgust and hostility.

"Are you the 'Queen of Mysteries'?"

Although Alysia lacks a lot of knowledge of this era, she still knows who the owner of "Dawn" is. That is the king of the sea, who is tied with Nast, the "King of the Five Seas". In her, Alysia felt an instinctive fear, which she did not feel when facing the "Bishop of Fear".

And Gustav? This surname Alysia is not unfamiliar. The Great Emperor of Intis is this surname, and it is also the focus of the Tamara family's investigation, because the "Dark Emperor" who was promoted more than 100 years ago is very likely to be Rose. El Gustav.

Bernadette's straight eyebrows wrinkled, she saw that the woman in front of her seemed to be very wrong, her body was trembling, and it didn't seem to have anything to do with her injury.

But she still stretched out her right hand, and outlined words in the air that were different from Giant, Dragon, Elvish, and Ancient Hermes. Those words with star-like brilliance, intertwined into strange symbols, seem to open a secret door leading to the depths of the spiritual world.

The "secret door" opened, a gust of wind blew out, and the upper body turned into a man wrapped in white cloth.

"The Stone of Life." Bernadette said in a soft but majestic voice.

The man with the upper body and the lower body responded respectfully, and took out an emerald green stone from a white cloth.

It is only the size of a baby's fist, and its whole body is emerald green, but it is very different from jade. It is not transparent, but is like a moss-covered stone picked up from a stream, and the fine moss-like fluff on it.

In Bernadette's palm, a dull rhythmic sound gradually came from within the "Stone of Life", "Boom"..."Boom"..."Boom"...It was like a human heart beating. As the sound got louder, the fine hairs began to grow, and the turquoise pea vines around them seemed to be more emerald green.

Bernadette raised her right index finger and **** together to outline a word again. Alysia understood, it was the ancient Hermes language - "life"!

The words with star-like brilliance were integrated into the "Stone of Life", the sound in the stone gradually became smaller, and the growing fine hairs also shrank back to their original length. The "Stone of Life" flew above Alysia, emitting an emerald green light of life, covering her.

Alysia only felt that the light shrouded her body seemed to come from her mother's touch, warm and genial, which made her just want to sleep, but the stronger fear that seemed to come from inside her body made her dare not fall asleep. But as the light shone, the injury in her heart was improving rapidly.

A few minutes later, the "Stone of Life" floating above her seemed to have exhausted its strength and restrained its light. The fine fluff on the surface completely disappeared, and it completely turned into a stone not much different from a cobblestone, trembling. Flying back to Bernadette's hands.

When Bernadette just handed the "Stone of Life" in his hand to the man with the upper body and the lower body who was standing beside him, a strip of white cloth wrapped around the man's upper body was suddenly untied from him. The surface of the shrunken kettle is covered with mysterious and complex symbols, and a section of the wick protruding from the mouth of the kettle appears in the air.

Immediately afterwards, the wick at the mouth of the pot ignited on its own, and the light emitted by the wick was extremely viscous, like a stream of water mixed with a lot of sugar.

And Bernadette, who was sitting on the hammock formed by pea vines, responded very quickly. The moment the item appeared, she shouted to the man with the upper body and the lower body:

"'Pale Death'!"

Although the man with the upper body and the lower body was a little panicked for a while, Bernadette's shout made him react quickly, and took out a pale mask with a metallic luster from a white cloth. The mask only has holes in the eyes, and there are no gaps in the rest of the mask. .

Without reaching for it, the mask floated out of thin air~www.wuxiaspot.com~ toward the head of the figure formed by the abnormally viscous light emitted by the wick, covering the figure's face.

As the mask firmly covered the face of the golden figure, the metal on the surface of "Pale Death" instantly softened, and a new face was reorganized, but the eyes of that face were still sticky golden.

The pale lines in the viscous gold stood out, sketching out a very complex and mysterious three-dimensional symbol, like a bird with unusually long feathers, or a coiled-up feathered snake.

With the appearance of the symbol, the viscous light that formed the figure quickly disintegrated, and little by little, it flowed into the object again, and the mask also fell.

Without waiting for Bernadette to give another order, the man with the upper body and the lower body stretched out three white cloth strips, and rolled up the "Pale Justice", "Stone of Life", and the item that looked like a shrunken water bottle. wrapped around the body.

Immediately afterwards, the man turned into a gust of wind and immediately plunged into a secret door leading to the depths of the spiritual world that had just appeared.

With the closure of the secret door, Alysia found that the fear from her body's instinct gradually dissipated, and most of the serious injuries she suffered from the frontal shelling also disappeared.

Bernadette looked at the disappearing secret door and breathed a sigh of relief. It seems that "Pale Death" can indeed seal the lamp **** in the rampant "Wishing Lamp", at least I don't know how long it can be sealed.

It's just why the lamp **** in "Wishing Lamp" suddenly appeared. According to him, as long as the surface of the lamp is not rubbed, the lamp **** who claims to be "eternal" will never appear.

Bernadette turned her attention to Alysia, whose complexion had returned to normal, but still lacked a normal expression.
