Whispering Verse

The old lighthouse on the island in the middle of the lake is located at the back of this ancient noble courtyard. First, walk through the snow-covered courtyard in the snow and fog, and enter the dead woods behind the manor through the small door at the back. Continue along the path in the dead woods, and the end point is the lighthouse in the northeast corner of the island.

Compared to other buildings on the island, this lighthouse is probably the only one that is constantly in use. After all, no matter what organization occupies this island, as long as ships are needed to transport in the Great Lakes, a lighthouse will be needed to guide the way.

The pier under the lighthouse is also the largest of the three piers on the island.

As expected, a group of ghosts lived in the old manor. When Shade and Iluna passed by the courtyard, they stood at the window, watching without saying a word in the dark window that had no glass or curtains. Looking at two people walking in the snow. These are the souls bound here by this island and this manor, so Shade deliberately used the "Death Door" to open a gap when passing by the side of the mansion, so that the ghosts who voluntarily left could continue to walk from here. After all, they are not bound by the evil things of the Pantanal like the "Swamp Witch".

But unfortunately, none of the men and women in gorgeous dresses in the manor used this door. They probably had other stories and other wishes, but Shade didn't have time to investigate tonight.

In the abandoned back garden, only the remains of the stone fountain pool and the fence to prevent animals from intruding still remain. The shape of the fountain is an angel with wings on its back. Unfortunately, the head and left arm are missing.

After entering the dead woods behind the manor, Shade thought he would encounter the enemy again, but nothing happened.

The two of them just watched quietly as the blurry lighthouse in the fog became clearer and clearer, and the light of "first fire" in Shade's eyes became more and more obvious.

It wasn't until he was about to pass through the dead forest that Sha De took the initiative to stop. The heavy fog here only blocked the line of sight and would not interfere with the transmission of sound. However, after arriving on the island, they did not hear the sound of high-level warlocks fighting with all their strength. Seeing that he was about to reach his destination, although Shade couldn't guess what happened, he could see the faint normal light of fire.

By the light of the fire, I could see that outside the dead woods, the paths branched off to the left and right. The uphill road on the right leads to the high lighthouse, while the flat road on the left leads to the ancient ruins Stonehenge under the lighthouse. Braziers erected from wood, placed along the path to the left, light the final approach to Stonehenge.

The road to the "Observation Ceremony" was right in front of him. He looked at the two roads to the left and right, and then said to Iluna:

"Sister Devlin looks like she hasn't arrived yet. I think I need to go to the lighthouse first."

The nun asked the witches to tell Shade that both of them could stabilize the entire seal by stabilizing the flame of the first fire. There is now less than half an hour before the Chosen Ceremony. Although you can directly see Lykins Plisha by taking the left road, Shade still thinks that what he needs most is to go to the lighthouse.

Witnessing the ceremony of the chosen one and confirming the identity of the fourth chosen one is the real task Luvia gave Shade. Compared to Lykins Prisha, once the evil thing in Pantanal is released from its seal, it will cause greater harm. After all, even if they can't defeat Lykins Prisha this time, they still have many years to resolve the matter of this chosen one before the thirteenth chosen one appears.

Iluna also knew what Shade was thinking. She stood in the snow, pursed her lips and looked at Shade, whose smaller body was illuminated by the fire in the distance:

"This time, I will face the new chosen one alone?"

"You are the protagonist of the Sixth Age epic. Be more confident. Your opponent this time is not as strong as Joey Barton."

This is true. Although Barton only had one link, he was standing in death at that time. Shade suspected that there was no one in the entire material world who could resist him except himself who was simultaneously amplified by nuns, priests and Iluna.

Although Sir Prisha is in the middle, the current environment does not give him much advantage.

Shade hugged Iluna, hesitated, and then gave her the hand crossbow and the "Arrow of Knowledge of Akenora". But [Night Watch] is still held by him, and his next journey may not be completely safe:

"I failed to shoot this arrow. Let's try and see if you have this chance. Don't be too nervous. Once Sister Devlin arrives at the lighthouse, I will go to you immediately. Try to delay as much time as possible. After I arrive at the tower, I will burn Start a flame. I will watch you in that light. If you use this arrow, shoot it at the lighthouse. Even if this arrow is ineffective, I can give him a surprise on the tower later. He will definitely not expect this. "

Shade said with a smile.

Iluna took over the weapon, and with the knowledge of the Chosen One, she could also make good use of the power of this arrow:

"But the special crossbow..."

"Sister Devlin's first fire can be shaped into a weapon, just like water. Once the nun arrives, everything will be easy... maybe you can defeat Prisha with arrows."

Iluna still thought that Shade wanted to make a sneak attack. After nodding lightly, the seventeen-year-old girl mustered up the courage to kiss the side of his face:

"Be careful too."

She mounted the skeleton horse and ran towards the end of the dead forest.

Shade stood there and looked at Iluna's back, confirming that she had left the dead forest. Finally, he pulled the scarf to cover the lower half of his face, lowered his hat below his eyebrows, and then walked out in the wind and snow. Dead woods.

The fire in front of him seemed to have turned into an illusion. It was clear that Shade had already seen the fork in the road at the end of the dead forest, but when he actually stepped out of the forest, he was surprised to find that everything around him had changed.

Snow was still falling in the sky, but at some point, huge gray stone slabs appeared around them. There are no traces of the dead forest behind them, and there is also a huge gray stone blocking the retreat.

Looking up at the sky, countless gray stone slabs are slowly changing positions floating in the air, and higher up there is a completely invisible white mist. These gray slates looked very familiar to Shade. The last time he saw Lykins Plisha, he summoned a bookshelf made of similar material from the snow.

"Could it be that......"

The silver moonlight in his hand illuminated the stone slab on the right, and as expected, he saw densely packed text on the surface of the stone slab. After carefully reading these Carson-like texts, Shade recognized that they were the content of "Snowy Night Elegy", a very famous collection of poems in the South. Miss Writer and Shade had discussed this collection of poems.

"Chosen Talent, Library Maze?"

He walked forward along the road in the center of the two stone slabs, and sure enough he saw roads leading to three directions at the fork in the mist ahead. He tried to use the "frog's leap" spell to jump directly into the air, but after jumping high, he hit the ground and returned directly to the ground from the air.

This is not even a mythical lock or a word of sublimation, nor is it a space-type power. It is purely a strange space built by the talents of the chosen ones.

"If I'm not mistaken, every stone slab in this labyrinth contains books that Lykins Prisha has read and the knowledge he has mastered."

The [Night Watchman] in his hand chopped the stone slab, but did not even leave any traces on the stone slab.

[The night watchman cannot cut off knowledge and wisdom. 】

"She" whispered in Shade's ear, and Shade released the [Source of Chaos] stored in the small box, but the relic that should have been able to guide the way in this scene was not there at this time. Point Shade in the direction of the exit of the maze.

"Either his power can even suppress the relic, or there is actually an exit in any direction."

Shade took back this dangerous relic, looked at the huge maze in front of him, and then tightened his collar:

"But since this is the labyrinth of the library... the exit!"

He directly assumed that the "exit" was a book, and the spell [Library Search] obtained from the old god [Grey Robe Sage], the "Library Guardian", immediately took effect.

Of course the exit will not fly towards Shade, but he has already sensed the location of the exit. Even at that moment, the structure of this so-called library labyrinth was completely "seen" clearly.

Sir Lykins Prisha still doesn’t know that although the [Secret Master] has the power of wisdom and knowledge, the library at night is truly the territory of the moon.

As the time for the stars to reach their correct positions grew closer and closer, Shade almost trotted forward. There are no dangerous monsters or relics in this library labyrinth. It is purely built with the knowledge of the chosen ones, so what hinders Shade's progress is naturally related to this.

"What has four legs in the morning, two legs at noon, and three legs in the evening?"

A stone wall with no words but a huge face stood in front of him. After hearing the familiar question, Shade muttered in his heart that someone plagiarized the question he asked at the Lakeview Manor night banquet, and then answered without thinking. :

"Humanity."

The stone wall automatically slid aside, allowing Shade to continue moving forward. After bypassing the wall engraved with "Primary Guide to Mechanical Technology", what blocked the road this time was a large tree with a human face on its trunk.

The big tree in the snow had blood-red branches, and there were densely packed mummies of rabbits and chickens hanging on the trunks. Shade suspected that these were the images of the relics in Sir Prisha's memory, but he didn't know what these animal mummies were. mean.

He knew the next thing.

"A chicken and a rabbit are in the same cage. Counting from the top, there are 35 heads, and counting from the bottom, there are 94 legs. How many chickens and rabbits are there in the cage?"

The human face on the tree trunk asked after Shade approached. Shade was stunned, squatted down and scratched twice with his fingers in the snow:

"23,12."

The big tree withered and turned into a pile of ash in the snow, so Shade continued to move forward.

The third strange guy I encountered was a mummy standing in the snow. It was wearing a bright red exaggerated banquet dress that would have been worn by nobles at least three hundred years ago, and a white wig on its head. After Shade approached, he asked:

"I want to move forward, but I don't know whether I should move my left leg first or my right leg first. If I move my left leg first, then..."

Shade is in a hurry now and has no time to listen to what he has to say:

"Then let's move forward together. Don't discriminate against any leg. You should give them the right to be number one."

The mummy was convinced, so it jumped away on its legs in the snow.

Shade turned to look at him, suspecting that Lykins Prisha had some serious mental illness, and continued to run forward.

At 11:11 a.m. on Thursday, Shade finally arrived at the exit of the library maze with the guidance of a spell. It was a door made of a large book with a brown cover. After Shade struggled to open the pages, the dark passage finally appeared.

He took a few steps back, then rushed toward the door, and what greeted him ahead was the last stretch of the road to the lighthouse.
