Whispering Verse

"Did you find that the humanoid relics of the secret-keeping humans have normal rationality, and the whispering factor is not particularly strong?"

White mist shrouded the islands, and the large lake in the middle of the swamp was illuminated by the firelight of the island in the middle of the lake. Black drifting snow swept across the land in the strong wind, and this night was destined to be unrestful.

Weak firelight came from the top of the lighthouse in the northeastern part of the island. The man carrying the black suitcase stood on the top of the lighthouse with Shade. Shade frowned slightly:

"Yes, it is very different from those crazy and dangerous relics."

Shade nodded.

"This is because the appearance of almost all secret-keeping human relics is related to the five wise angels."

The two of them looked at the island covered by thick fog from the top of the lighthouse. Snowflakes were flying in the fog and firelight was flickering everywhere. But this lighthouse alone is so peaceful. The light of the lighthouse rotates automatically with the operation of the lens group behind it, causing two fan-shaped lights to rotate around the top of the tower.

"Although our Lord [Secret Keeper] has left, He still hopes that the secrets of the past and the inherited knowledge can be spread to mortals. He still hopes that the light of wisdom and knowledge can still shine in the era when the ancient gods have left. Pass it on among civilizations, so that the flame of civilization that is about to be extinguished can last longer.

Therefore, the five wise angels took over the responsibilities of God after our Lord [Secret Keeper] fell asleep. Because angels cannot directly contact mortals, angels have chosen us to contact and test mortals. This is the meaning of "Secret Keepers". "

Shade turned his head slightly to look at him. The man carrying the suitcase and surrounded by the whispering elements continued to look at the blizzard in front of him:

"I came to this island for the sake of the chosen ones and raised the question of 'eternal beauty' because the angel who guided me near the Great Swamp mentioned that there were mortals on a distant island. Similar questions were asked to the gods on the tower. However, you only need to give the simplest answer."

It lowered its head and drew the Holy Emblem on its chest, which was the Holy Emblem belonging to the ancient god:

"Victims who fell from the tower. Did you know? The meaning of knowledge and wisdom does not lie in whether it is powerful, but in whether it is rational and long-lasting. Praise my Lord [Secret Master], and may the fire of knowledge and wisdom never go out."

"So that's it...every ancient god seems to have made corresponding arrangements when he left."

Shade sighed softly, and then imitated the secret keeper and said softly:

"Praise knowledge and wisdom, and hope that knowledge and wisdom will guide the way forward for civilization."

After his words fell, a soft white light suddenly appeared on the side that was originally empty. The secret keeper bowed slightly towards the light. Shade raised his free left hand to block the light, and then looked to the left.

The flowing white light traces are erected in the slightly narrow space surrounding the light source at the top of the lighthouse. As the light traces open, the scenery of the island-in-the-island lake of the "Lake of Cherubim" with snow falling at night appears. behind the crack of light.

A soft voice appeared in front of the sharp-edged boulders on the lake:

"Praise my Lord [Secret Master]."

The "Lady of the Lake" and the first wise angel "Cherub" stood on the water behind the crack of light in a white robe. She looked at Shade with a smile.

The island in the middle of the Great Swamp Lake was already in a mess, and there were fires and explosions, fighting, and roaring sounds everywhere. But at this moment, only at the top of the lighthouse that was not affected by the battle, Shade was so calm.

"Beloved of the Recorder, congratulations, you have completed all four of my tests. You deserve this power."

Leaving the long staff on the water, the angel held up a golden ball of light in his hands.

Shade's breathing quickened for a moment. Even if the snow on the island in the middle of the lake blew on his face, he didn't care at all:

"Finally finished."

He stretched out his hand to touch the ball of light, but suddenly thought of another thing. Not long ago, the "Swamp Witch" helped him and Iluna guide a shortcut, so Shade thought of something related to it:

"Ma'am, there's one more thing."

The man holding a suitcase by the wall kept bowing to the "Lady of the Lake", while Shade stood on the top of the lighthouse and said in a deep voice:

"Would you like to save a sad soul?"

"Only by completely defeating the evil in Pantanal can part of her soul be freed."

The Lady of the Lake obviously knew what Shade was talking about, so Shade changed the question. His eyes seemed to be shining at this time:

"Do you still remember the wild wolf that strayed into the Lake of Cherubim and lived on the island? It died because of me, and was controlled by the relic because of me. Now that my trial has been completed, I I wonder if you would help me free its soul?"

The angel smiled, so Shade stretched out his hand and drew a black crack on the side.

He heard the sound of animals running, and then the rotten wild wolf appeared on the surface of the Lake of Cherubim and rushed towards Shad.

But it didn't hurt Shade, it just glanced at him and then got into the dark crack. The rotten body remained at Shade's feet, and the transparent soul crossed the beach, stepped on the water surface with twinkling lights, and rushed towards the dark moon together with the thousands of souls.

"It and its companions wanted to attack me and my horse, so I killed them. But it helped me find you, so I had an obligation to free it. Even if I can't help the Swamp Witch now, at least I can Let the wolf go away."

Shade breathed a sigh of relief, and out of the corner of his eye he saw the fire on the island spreading in all directions. There were many things running in the fire, but none of them looked like normal humans.

The night is already dark, and with the new divinity, many things that follow will become relatively simple.

He reached out and tried to touch the ball of light, but this time, the angel on the other side of the light mark stopped him, and his gentle eyes looked at Shade:

"At the end of the Fifth Era, two witches found me."

There was a deliberate pause, as if observing Sha De's expression at the moment:

"The witches once heard about my location from a man (Note 1). So it took many years before they finally entered the Lake of Cherubim."

Aiming at the light source at the top of the tower, Shade knew who the "Lady of the Lake" was talking about. He could even imagine the Witch Emperor, accompanied by a guard of honor, and her distant cousin at the end of the distant Fifth Age. Together with my niece, the back figures are slowly moving forward on the misty water.

"They want to leave a gift for you on the other side of time. But they all know that long time will obliterate many things, and even they may have turned into dust. So, they entrusted that gift to you. They gave it to me, and I hope their thoughts can span a long time."

The angel said in a very gentle tone:

"Time takes away the stories of the past, and the wise bring you the thoughts at the other end of time."

Shade opened his mouth slightly.

"It's like you helped them at that time."

The white-robed angel standing on the water looked at Shade. At this moment, no one cared about what was happening on the island under the lighthouse:

"But if I help them, I must give them a test. This test is not a test of themselves, but a test of you, whether you are as kind as they expected. The appearance of the wolf is not a coincidence, I will leave it here On the island, I just want to test you. Now, the gift given to you by the two witches is in my hands to contain the great power you gained from completing my trial."

The light group in His hands gradually extinguished, leaving only a teardrop-shaped crystal. The crystal is not blue, but golden——

The "Wise Stone" given by the old god [The Uncertain Wise Man] in the fifth era of 5177 was left to Shad by the witches in the distant past through the Cherubim Lake Cherubim.

At this moment it is used to hold that drop of divinity.

"Miss Violet...Miss Teresa..."

The figures of the two witches flashed in Shade's heart, and the golden pyroxene flew towards Shade. The warm power was undoubtedly divinity. But compared to the divinity that he already knew he would gain, the gifts given by the witches were what surprised Shade the most:

"A gift spanning two eras."

The angel smiled and nodded, and then looked down at the tower from the lake. At this moment, the spiritual light in Stonehenge surges, and the time is almost up. Lykins Prisha is about to start his chosen one ceremony, which is the epic of the fourth chosen one.

"Maybe you can try putting the witches' gifts between your eyebrows."

The angel gave a small hint, and Shade's hand holding the pyroxene pointed at the glowing figure in the Stonehenge in the distance:

"cherubi, that is a mortal who has also inherited the power of cherubim. Next, he will go to witness his own destiny and bring a disaster to the material world. If you don't want it...just leave it alone. ?"

"Everything is your choice. Angels will not interfere with the poetry of fate. Moreover, the long time of grinding has left me with only a weak strength."

The lady holding the staff was still standing on the water, but she finally gave Shade the final tip:

"Beloved by the recorder, the rules of the chosen ones cannot be changed. But knowledge and wisdom are meant to be passed on, not to be solidified."

The angel's eyes faced Shade, and some tiny traces of light appeared on the surface of Shade's face:

"what do you mean......"

Iluna mentioned not long ago that there are special features in the rules of the fourth chosen one (Note 2); and the old god [Winter Maiden] also mentioned not long ago that knowledge and wisdom can be recorded.

"If you are willing, you can only use your own wisdom and knowledge to defeat the officially chosen person of [Knowledge and Wisdom] in the field of knowledge. You can use...the power of the recorder to contain the third The qualifications of the Four Chosen Ones, to be given to...the right person.”

After a moment of silence, Shade blinked and felt that his calm state of mind was broken. The chaotic sounds from all over the island flooded into his ears:

"Sorry, what did you say?"
