Whispering Verse

"You will pay the price for your actions today, and innocent people will die because of you!"

The water ghost continued to curse, and the whispering elements affected Shad through the ice spikes that penetrated his body. The balance of elements in Shad's body was also about to be broken.

He could imagine that [The Order of the Drowned] would retaliate against their actions today:

"I don't care, the life or death of strangers has nothing to do with me!"

Outsiders will never be affected by a few words.

"Those who are waiting for your rescue will surely fall into deeper troubles and suffer misfortune!"

The water ghost continued to push the ice spike inward, unable to stand on the ground with both feet to use force. In the water at the opponent's home court, Shade's strength was at a disadvantage.

He could imagine that John, the boy in the trash can at the back door of the Green Lake Hotel, would one day die like most homeless children because he had no support of his own:

"I don't care. The needs of others have nothing to do with me."

Compared to the boy's life and death, his own life was obviously more important, and he would never hesitate over such a trivial matter.

"Those who love you cannot wait for your return, and those you love will cry for the rest of their lives!"

The ice spikes had completely penetrated Shade's back. He could feel that his heart had frozen and his blood vessels were frozen, but this little thing had no effect on [Heart of Stone] at all.

Suddenly, he felt that he understood Hela Oxenfurt and the feelings of the previous owner of the Heart of Stone. That cold heart corresponds to the resurrected life of an emotionless woman. Shade has already understood the indifference that the other party has always shown behind the black veil:

"I don't care. Anyone who loves me does so voluntarily. I don't force them to do so."

After saying this, the corner of his mouth trembled, and he suddenly realized what he had said. But it doesn't matter, nothing matters.

The silver-white moonlight falling in the deep sea actually seemed colder than the ice at this time.

Shade took a big breath of the lake water and looked at the water ghost in front of him with wide eyes. The features on his face had disappeared and his face had melted into a thin layer:

"I am the most important, don't use anyone else to influence my mood!"

The ice on the body seemed to blend into the silver moonlight, and on the chains wrapped around the two of them, [Gluttony], [Greed], [Sloth], [Anger], and [Arrogance] shone with the whispering elements of the water ghost. There is also a deep dim light.

[Primal Fire] disappeared at some point, but the water ghost still failed to break free from the chains of sin. He felt the coldness on the chain was even more terrifying than the heat just now. The faintly vibrating chain seemed to be giving birth to more terrifying power, and that power came from his heart:

"You are the same person as me!"

He originally wanted to laugh, but at this time, the inexplicable panic and inner fear made him can only make a sound. Only then did he notice that, except for the pale heart pierced by the thunder gun, his entire upper body had melted in the silver moonlight.

That lonely light, the indifferent light, the light that seems to have been shining on the world from thousands of years ago is far more terrifying than the rioting relics in the chest:

"Your ending will not be better than mine!"

He tried hard to vibrate the water with his damaged vocal cords, and when he discovered to his horror that his consciousness had faded, and this second period of life that was not considered life had come to an end again, and he had lost the battle, he said: The final vicious curse:

"My Lord, I'm waiting for you under the deep sea! Don't even think about knowing the secret of Green Lake!"

Shade's free left hand, with moonlight and ice, grabbed the pale heart embedded in his chest. With the combined force of his left and right hands, he took out the heart, and then held it in his hand with one hand.

The demon eyes peeled off from the corpse's eye sockets and disappeared silently into the dark waters. The water ghost's corpse was finally completely melted by the cold silver moonlight and turned into a part of the water.

The relics accidentally went out of control due to Megan's trap, the fusion of the relics with a one-in-10,000 probability, the right combination of spiritual runes, and the power of the evil god, created the water ghost Barry, an individual beyond normal standards. But what he met was Sha De, and he lost in the end. With unwillingness and resentment, he was integrated with this water area forever.

Holding the staff in one hand and grasping the beating heart with the other, the body in the silver light continued to fall, falling, with dancing black chains surrounding it, as if protecting its master, until the chains also It was dyed with cold silvery white moonlight. And below the abyss, which seemed to have no bottom at all, finally appeared, waiting for Shade's figure.

Shade never knew what was in the abyss. But the loneliness of falling alone made him understand that the abyss may not only refer to the physical terrain, but also the irreparable darkness in his own soul.

Facing the inevitable fall of death alone, or even a fall without an end, the pain, loneliness, indifference and loneliness together constitute the shallowest but also the deepest meaning of the concept of "drowned in the deep sea".

In the light of the silver moon on his body, he glimpsed the shadow that appeared in the bottom of his heart, and he also glimpsed the face of the deceased looking at him quietly in the darkness further down the water.

The pale face lay quietly in the darkness, and most of the body was hidden in the deeper water where it could not be seen. This is not the bottom of the abyss, but the place where "she" comes to welcome Shade as he continues to fall.

At this moment, she saw him and he saw her. So in the light of the lonely silver moon, there was finally a hint of golden brilliance. First, the side of the face seemed to be cut by the cold water, and then what escaped from the wound upward was not bright red blood, but golden blood. afterglow.

Dense cracks appeared all over Sha De's body and penetrated his eyes, but they could not change the cold look in his eyes.

Through sacrifices and sacrifices, as well as a unique environment that is difficult to replicate, the evil god [God of the Deep Sea Drowned] briefly glimpsed the figure who once confronted her in the material world in his true form.

The silver light continued to fall, and the body in the deeper darkness also revealed more details. The swollen arms were lifted up unconsciously as if driven by the current, but this was clearly the way to welcome Shade.

The corpse was wearing a white robe, and the pale face, as Shade continued to fall, he saw that it was his own face.

No, this is not a disguise, this is a reflection.

Shade saw clearly that the corpse was clearly his own reflection. And what reflected him, under the corpse, was by no means the bottom of some deep abyss, but a childlike and scattered eye.

More and more details were outlined under the water at the bottom, as if the moment Shade discovered the truth, the huge figure completely revealed its appearance to him.

The huge, extremely huge corpse sank quietly into the water, and Shade's figure was only reflected in the deceased's childish hole. Even if he is glowing at the moment, even if the afterglow state of his divinity is showing, he is still like a glowing millet grain compared to the huge corpse of incomparable majesty that has been waiting for him.

The huge corpse was like the ancient mountains in the abyss of the sea. The pale skin, swaying hair, and the scattered holes that represented death. This strange and strange sight was completely displayed in front of Shade.

Even if he didn't have a phobia of giant objects, the panic in his heart at this moment had reached the extreme, but was then suppressed by the indifference given by the heart held in his hand.

It doesn't matter.

And the reflection of Sha De in the eyes of the giant corpse suddenly disappeared in the blink of an eye.

He was falling, falling, getting closer and closer to those eyes. Then, the most unacceptable and frightening scene at the moment came as expected - the deceased's eyes blinked. Then, the giant corpse in the abyss followed the current and stretched out its pale and swollen arms towards Shade, just like Shade's reflection not long ago.

The cold heart was extremely firm, and the cold expression did not waver. At this moment, the element of blasphemy had completely suppressed the restless pale heart in Shade's hand, and hymns praising death, praising the abyss, and praising falling were also played from an unknown direction in the water. She is welcoming the new fallen person, this desperate person who, like herself, fell alone.

The arms of the huge corpse approached the golden and silver light spots falling from above. In the light spots, Shade completely let go of his spirit and did not resist. Instead, he followed his own desires to cater to and feel the fall. Be lonely and feel your own indifference at this moment.

It was as if the world really had nothing to do with him.

The scorching steam mist appeared behind Shade at some point, but it only turned into a series of bubbles in the water. The distant whistles and bells blend perfectly with the hymn of loneliness and death. Then, the brass life ring appeared behind Shade, and was almost immediately dyed silvery white by the cold moonlight.

The giant hands of the corpse closed around Shade, wrapping him and the life ring in it.

Complete darkness enveloped Shade. The loneliness of dying alone and the despair of falling into the abyss further aroused the indifference in his heart.

In the cold moonlight, even that pale heart completely "melted". The elements of blasphemy and whispering elements rushed towards the rapidly rotating life ring behind him at the same time. At the coldest moment, Shade suddenly realized.

He completely understood, understood the [God of the Drowned in the Deep Sea] who greeted him, and understood the power she was showing to him:

"Have you always been so indifferent at the bottom of the abyss, watching everything in this world?"

The giant closed hands are covered in silver moonlight, making the unknown underwater world once again shrouded in darkness.

A sigh, accompanied by a chuckle that only Shade could hear——

"Complete darkness and loneliness, but...in my heart...after all, there is still a bond."

The darkness did not last long, and the moonlight shining in the deep sea shone through the fingers of the giant pale hand until it was dyed silver.

He immediately let go of his hands, and his arms dropped to the sides of the body again.

Shade continued to fall, and the golden and silver light spots got closer and closer to the eyes of the underwater giant corpse. But he looked down without fear, not caring about the changes in his life ring or where he was going to fall.

He felt as if he had completely overlapped with the original falling figure thousands of years ago. However, he was not alone. There was a greeter below him, and there were people above him waiting for him to return. The chest shimmers with an imperceptible shimmer, and the cat-shaped doll warms the frozen heart.

He knew that he and she were both lonely falls, but he and she were still different after all. His world, because of them, was definitely not completely dark. He is no longer the wandering outsider who is incompatible with this world in the middle of last summer, and he will definitely not be able to look at this strange place with the most indifferent eyes as he did at first.

The change of emotions triggers the change of spirit and elements. The cold and cold moonlight of holy silver has a just right tenderness. This is the real moon.

But a new question arose from this, so the stranger looked at the huge corpse below, with a series of bubbles coming out of his mouth, and asked the god who died alone:

"At that moment, when you transcended the world and touched the greatness, what kind of despair did you see in your eyes?"

There was no look of a living person in the godless eyes. In the silence, the stranger saw himself in those eyes again, and saw himself falling alone. So real, yet so false.

God was right in front of him, but this time he surprisingly didn't feel any discomfort, as if he was only seeing himself.

Then the stranger knew that she knew that he understood her, so she also understood him.

A long sigh appeared at the end of the hymn when the sound was about to stop. Then, the silver-white figure reflected in the huge eyes turned into a drop of golden light and rose upwards.

There is no light in the deep sea, but golden and silver light spots fall and golden light rises. The two together illuminate the pale face of the silent god of the drowned, but they cannot illuminate the deep darkness at the bottom of the abyss.

Shade stretched out his hand downwards, and the golden divinity touched the fingertips of his curled fingers. The new cold, lonely and desperate divinity became part of his soul.
