Whispering Verse

"It's safe."

Shade, who had made sure he was completely safe through the "Seeing Demon", said that he put away the beads floating above his head a little tiredly. When I went to see Meghan again, she also looked tired. Walking is not tiring at all, but the characteristics of the Devil's Labyrinth increase the loss of mental and physical strength.

Fortunately, they finally came out now, and the time was 9:43 on Wednesday night. At this time of year, the sun has long since disappeared below the western horizon. Starlight and moonlight cannot penetrate the thick fog that shrouds the island, and naturally there will be no lights in the long-abandoned town. It was pitch black all around. After Megan called out the light ball for lighting, the visibility nearby returned to daytime levels:

"You just let us go so easily?"

Both of them had no intention of doing anything else. Together they left the town along the road they had walked many times today, and returned to the dock through the forest. This took more than ten minutes, and the time was already close to ten o'clock. Even though the lunar eclipse had not yet occurred, the ring warlocks with sensitive senses were able to sense the spirits of the entire world in advance, especially the spirits in the stars. Indescribable changes occurred.

This is a change in nature and the world, but it is also a good opportunity to understand the spiritual runes.

Megan's boat was parked on the pier. When the boat carried the two people away, Shade turned and looked at the pier that disappeared in the fog. He actually didn't relax at all. He didn't think that the devil actually let them go like this. Especially letting him go.

Gently rubbing the [Demon Hunting Seal] on his finger, he then noticed that Megan, who was sitting on the bow of the boat, also looked alert:

"It's not like the devil is trying to trap us at all."

The witch is quite sensible:

"It's more like deliberately delaying time so that we can't leave as early as possible. The lunar eclipse is about to begin. What will the ancestors do this time?"

Nothing unusual happened for the time being, and the boat just rowed across the lake silently, getting closer to the edge of the fog area.

The two people on the boat did not speak, but drank holy water and potions to recover from the bad state at the moment and prepare to face the unknown battle.

The water surface was quite calm, and there were no monsters such as water ghosts to disturb them. However, as they got closer and closer to the edge of the fog, their vigilance gradually reached its maximum level. When the dim moonlight shone on the brown-haired sorceress, she stood up abruptly because her eyes had already seen Green Lake beyond the fog:

"Out!"

The bow of the boat was the first to break out of the fog area. When the evening wind on the lake blew the sorceress's face, she felt that she had never been fond of the warm wind. The starry sky has spread above the head, and the silver, yellow and red moon has also been suspended in the starry sky.

The touch of the starry sky like a picture scroll made her feel that she was about to touch the true meaning of the starry sky. At the same time, the rear half of the ship where Shade was located had also left the fog area, allowing him to be bathed in starlight and moonlight.

The stranger looked up at the moon, and then felt himself shaking unconsciously. He couldn’t understand what was going on, but Meghan came over and said with a smile:

"The third landing on the island ended successfully. We will not come again in a short time, absolutely not, it is too dangerous. When my friends arrive, we will discuss the next plan."

"Look over there."

Shade said, looking to the left side of the bow with Megan. Although they were disguised, they still noticed a small boat heading here.

The other party's goal was not them, they just happened to meet each other. The ring warlocks on the boat also noticed the boat that had just come out of the fog after getting closer, so the two sides stopped their boats in tacit agreement and looked at each other a hundred meters apart.

The small boat of a group of five people from the [Mirror Association], including the Mirror Hidden Man and the Edwards brothers, was slightly larger than Megan's boat. Although the ships on both sides were camouflaged, at such a close distance, one could easily see who the other side was.

"Is it such a coincidence?"

This was probably what everyone was thinking at this time. One of the blind brothers whispered in the ear of the "Mirror Hidden Man" who was wearing a light gray coat and had a small reflective mirror hanging on his right ear as an earring. After a few words, the latter nodded, walked to the bow of the ship and said:

"I have been looking forward to seeing you again since we last parted in the island cemetery."

He spoke in fairly standard Kassenric:

"Mr. Edwards, Miss Edwards, looking at you, are you in danger on the island? Can you share information with each other? My two students respect you very much."

The two blind brothers nodded to Shade and Megan, because the latter stood together, and they still didn't realize that Shade was not Edwards at all.

It seems that the last encounter with the wishing demon really left a deep impression on them. What the devil revealed probably really scared them, otherwise there would be no reason why the Mirror Hidden Man didn't attack Shade and Megan as soon as they met.

The sorceress motioned to Shade to communicate, and Shade nodded slightly:

"There is an evil spirit demon on the island, a demon related to space power."

He didn't reveal too much detail to prevent others from snatching the doctor's prey.

"The evil spirits of the third era..."

The man hiding the mirror nodded slightly, and then said:

"After my students met with you last time, they expressed their desire to cooperate. I think this idea is quite good, after all, our goals are Edwards' secret and... the chosen one."

"We don't want to work with the Mirror Society."

Megan said that this is also Shade's attitude, and he does not need to cooperate with these people.

The man hiding the mirror smiled and shook his head:

"Miss, you may have misunderstood. I haven't decided whether to cooperate with you. After all, there is only one candidate, and I don't want to share Edwards' secret with others."

Behind him, the blind brothers showed apologetic expressions to Shade and Megan, while the sharp brown eyes of the man hiding the mirror looked at Shade:

"I'm just curious, what kind of strength are you? Last time we had a brief confrontation in the cemetery, I could only judge that you were a high-level player, but my students said that you can even threaten a dangerous sage-level demon relic. "

"What do you think?"

Shade asked with a cold face, so the mirror-hiding man nodded:

"I can't guess, so I want to give it a try. You see, the scenery here is really good. Since there is a chance, why not do it here, right now. If you can beat me, [Mirror Association] can do it in the next period of time I will never go against you."

With that said, he jumped out of the boat and came to the water. The remaining four people on the boat quickly left in the boat.

Megan frowned slightly:

"Are you crazy? Don't you know how many ring warlocks from the Righteous God Church are around this lake now? Once you start here, the three Thirteen Rings from the Righteous God Church may appear."

"Of course I know, that's why this is just a brief confrontation, not a real duel."

The expression on the face of the man hiding the mirror remained unchanged, and he suggested to Sha De:

"Mr. Edwards, why don't you let your sister leave first? My students said she doesn't have the same power as you. Let her leave first and don't accidentally hurt her."

It seemed that he really couldn't figure out what kind of power Shade had, so he made the sudden request for a fight. But the problem is that Megan is quite sure that unless Shade shows off the strength of splitting space with a sword on the rainy night last Monday, otherwise even if he is far above the average level of the sixth ring, he is definitely not the "Mirror Hidden Man" of the thirteenth ring. "opponent.

Shade himself knew this, but he also knew how to deal with the current situation. What he is worried about now is not the man hiding the mirror at all, but what the guy on the island is going to do on this lunar eclipse night:

"You leave first."

He said to the brown-haired girl next to him, pulled the key from his chest and turned it into a staff, and jumped to the water.

"But......"

"obedient."

Shade turned to look at her with a stern look. Megan shivered instinctively, and somehow thought of Shade's appearance when he picked up the whip:

"You are really... careful."

She said softly, and then took the boat and sailed to the shore.

On the large lake reflecting the starry sky, only Sha De and the Mirror Hidden Man were left. The two men did not take action immediately, but looked at each other separately.

"Do you know who the chosen one of the space is?"

The man in a gray formal suit suddenly asked.

"I probably guessed it, it must be related to the Edwards family."

Shade replied.

"Did you know? Our association has several very unique fragments of poems, so we can look for clues in advance during the city's riding competition in Tobesk City."

His voice was very low, almost like murmuring in his sleep in the wind:

"Part of it, even my students don't know, but I'm quite worried about it. The ancient god of space has the power of breaking and bridging, and the chosen one of space is related to this. Breaking and bridging, and unity. One, perhaps, you are all just your ancestors, the steps and nourishment to ascend to a higher position."

"I know all these things, what's the point of you saying this now?"

"I just hope that regardless of whether you are the Thirteenth Ring or not, you should consider more seriously whether you want to cooperate with us."

A floor-to-ceiling silver mirror that is as tall as a person rises from the water and stands on the left side of the "Mirror Hidden Man", reflecting his body. Shade shook his left hand, revealing the gold bracelet on his wrist. He put his right hand into his pocket and took out the small red leather book given by Miss Denister:

"We don't want to be caught by the Zhengshen Church, so we can decide the outcome with one move, right?"

"certainly."

Shade raised his head and glanced at the three-wheeled moon in the unusually clear starry sky, then jumped up into the night sky, while the Mirror Hidden Man turned around and walked into the mirror.
