Whispering Verse

Shade has only now roughly seen the full story of the Edwards family.

More than two hundred years have condensed into roots that have spread for six generations; and the stories experienced by each person have destined the thick family genealogy that Shade "touches" at this moment.

"Actually, what I'm more curious about is, how do you know so many things?"

Both of them were silent for a moment, and then Shade asked curiously. Although the information provided by Mr. Green was not particularly detailed, Shade and the church had never been able to find this information.

Old Mr. Green did not answer this time, but said very cautiously:

"You have to know that not everyone is like me and has no thoughts of resisting our ancestors."

Shade narrowed his eyes slightly, so even within the Edwards family, there were different voices.

"Let's not continue this topic. There are so many members in the family, and there will always be some people with unique ideas."

The corpse shook his head:

"Is there anything else? I've already answered the question you want to ask. If there's nothing else, I'm going to go back to sleep. Although I'm not afraid of the sun, generally speaking, I only get active at night. "

Shade thought for a while:

"For the sake of the roast chicken I brought, I also want to ask you about the strange relics or ancient magical items owned by your ancestors."

"I don't know that. I really don't know this time."

Mr. Green shook his head:

"After all, I haven't landed on the island, and I haven't returned to my family yet."

"I'm just asking about two things. First, does he play Rhodes?"

Old Mr. Green was a little surprised by this topic, but he still said:

"My mother told me that at least up to her generation, everyone in our family loved playing Rhodes cards. As for our ancestor, I heard that he had done a lot of rituals and experimental research based on Rhodes cards, but I don't know the specific details. Not sure."

Laplace Klein Howard betrayed the Prophet's Association because of the Rhodes card issue. He would naturally continue the research, but that's not what Shade wanted to know:

"Okay, does your family have special rules cards? I don't mean ordinary special cards. Do you know about the founding series?"

"Of course I know! That is the origin of all Rhodes cards, the original series!"

Mr. Green talked about this topic with great interest, but he was not sure whether his family had such powerful cards:

"At least I've never heard of it."

It seems that the missing [Origin Space] is still not the moment to appear.

"Then the second thing is flame. Do your ancestors have special flames in their hands?"

Shade asked again.

"I know this! It does exist. I don't know exactly what kind of flame it is, but I'm pretty sure it's not ordinary. You also know that because there is an island on the back of that island, the space condition of the entire island is extremely chaotic. ."

He pointed in the direction of the central island:

"Before mentioning the fire, let me ask another question: Guess what happened when the town of Green Lake was ruined? That caused the island, which had never had any problems, to look like it does now?"

Shade thought for a moment, this has always been a mystery:

"A certain experiment of your ancestors failed and activated the chaotic space?"

"No, no, no, our ancestors have been hiding for so many years. It would be ridiculous if they were exposed because the experiment failed."

He looked at Shade with a serious face, obviously he was going to mention the family's secret past again:

"The descendants don't know that their ancestors are still alive before they die or are transformed. My grandfather, Pride Edwards, the third generation who was forcibly transformed into a demon, discovered the ancestor's secrets before he was alive. He secretly researched and tracked it down to another island. He didn’t want his four children to be turned into inhuman beings by their ancestors, and they wouldn’t even have peace after death, so he made a decision.”

Mr. Green sighed deeply:

"This is also a story I only knew intermittently seven or eight years ago. My grandfather pretended not to know anything and secretly investigated the entire island, fighting against countless mechanisms, monsters and death traps left by his ancestors. At that time, our ancestors were not like Now, with his eyes always on the outside world, his grandfather finally achieved results after countless days and nights of exploration and investigation. He discovered that the problem of the central island in Green Lake was definitely not caused by his grandfather. This lake and this The island, as the most unstable of the unstable spaces in the material world, dates back to the distant past, so far back that it can even be the Second Era. Nothing happened before because some magical devices and rituals stabilized the island's space. ."

"So, Mr. Pride Edwards destroyed the device and allowed the White Mist to invade the normal island, leading to the destruction of Green Lake Town? But he also released his four children because of this?"

Shade asked, and the corpse nodded heavily:

"Yes, the ancestor must control the white mist from continuing to spread, otherwise once the church intensifies its investigation, his hiding for so many years will be exposed. So, my mother and three uncles took a boat with the surviving townspeople I left my hometown, and my grandfather disappeared in that accident. In fact, he almost died, and was later transformed into a demon by his ancestors."

Shade was immediately full of respect for the unmasked gentleman. In terms of seniority, he was also Megan and Audrey's grandfather:

"It turns out that such a story has happened before."

"You see, the family story has been going on since our ancestors came to Green Lake. Comedy and tragedy, every generation has its own legend.

The ancestors of the first generation came to Green Lake alone and discovered the secret of Green Lake;

The second generation he raised experienced his initial experiments and worked with him to develop the town of Green Lake, which was originally only a village.

The third generation has family scandals and dramas of brother-sister incest, which also led to the discovery and sacrifice of their grandfather;

The fourth-generation mother and uncles grew up happily on the island, but experienced the destruction of their homeland when they were children. They missed their childhood home until their death;

We, the fifth generation, are far away from our hometown and have started our own families in various places while listening to the rumors of our hometown. We are the happiest;

The children of the sixth generation, who originally thought they had completely lost contact with their family, now have to face family past events that they have never even heard of.

Each generation has its own stories and legends. Just like roots taking root deep in the soil, everyone is there, and everyone has always been there. "

He squatted there and continued to sigh:

"I am really grateful to my grandfather for his sacrifice. Otherwise, how could I have a peaceful life as an ordinary person? You should also thank him, otherwise the situation you have to face will never be as good as it is now."

"Yes, thank you Mr. Pride Edwards."

Shade said quite sincerely that the history of the Edwards family was so clearly displayed in front of him. The shock he received at this moment was definitely no less shocking than the shock he felt when he saw the family tree in the restaurant when he and Megan first landed on the island.

"Back to the topic, what does this have to do with flames? Or, the devices and rituals that existed in ancient times to suppress the chaotic space on the central island of Green Lake are actually flames."

The corpse nodded:

"According to the information I found and the rumors I heard from other family members, the flame should have arrived here around the Fourth Age. The unstable space worsened over time, and it became a big problem in the Fourth Age. As for the specific device, it is a portable metal kerosene lamp, and the flame is in the furnace. It stabilizes the space and uses firelight and shadow to draw a clear boundary between the two islands. My grandfather irreversibly damaged the oil lamp, so The fog on another island will come to the real island."

Shade frowned deeply. Sister Devlin once predicted that she would definitely be able to find a new first flame in Green Lake this time. It seemed that the blind nun was really right. However, Shade didn't remember that the central island of Green Lake, which was the largest point of spatial chaos in the material world, could be stabilized by just the flames of the First Fire.

In other words, not only was it a flame, but the kerosene lamp was most likely not an ordinary object either. But this also created new problems. Once the nun recovered the flame, the central island of Green Lake was completely out of control.

[Think more carefully. 】

"She" reminded gently, and Xia De suddenly realized:

"Oh, my Mystery Lock - Tree Kiss, is specially designed to seal this kind of unsolvable trouble."

Although Mr. Nicholas Green was unwilling to go to the banquet with Shade, he still said that he could continue to help him in the future. When the two separated, Mr. Green also said in a rather vague way that the two living people of the fifth generation who were not on the island were Jarvis Edwards who became a believer of the [God of Tyranny] and the evil god [Dragon Eater]. 】 Believer Nadia Foran has information that even he doesn't know.

And his ancestor should not appear outside the island in a short time. Laplace Klein Howard seems to be busy with something important and unable to get away.

"I know he won't be able to get out anytime soon."

Shade was not surprised by this:

"He was so restrained on the night of the lunar eclipse, and he even promised not to create chaos during the negotiations between the two countries. Of course he didn't mean well. However, what is it that can actually bother him?"

In short, this Friday morning invitation trip unexpectedly allowed Shade to gain a lot of useful information. This is not only good luck, if Mr. Nicholas Green hadn't kept his promise and let him go last time, he wouldn't be so easy to talk to now.

Of course, Shade thought this was also related to the fact that he didn't forget to bring the roast chicken.

This time, Mr. Green allowed Shade to tell others what he had said. And when Shade asked if he could tell the Green siblings about his current situation, the old ghoul sighed and plunged into the soil.
