Whispering Verse

Luvia stayed at the Green Lake Hotel that day and did not leave. Iluna returned to the local church after lunch. She still had many things to do.

The six great witches basically have nothing else to do locally at this time, so they have been staying at the Green Lake Hotel to make various preparations for Wednesday's events.

Except for the meeting with Nadia Foran, Shade was basically ready for everything. The only Edwards he has not seen now are the eldest son with the gift of time and space in the third generation, and the two cultists in the fifth generation.

As for Jarvis Edwards, who belonged to the [Tyranny Club], Shade guessed that he probably wouldn't be able to see him before Wednesday's night banquet. Because the witches received the news in the afternoon, the Church of the Five Gods dispatched three thirteen-ring warlocks, and finally destroyed the remaining local stronghold of the [Tyranny Club] in one fell swoop.

Except for Jarvis Edwards who was rescued by someone who suddenly appeared, almost all the ring warlocks sent to the local area by [Tyranny Club] were wiped out. A large amount of information regarding the conspiracy hatched by the [Tyranny Club] during the Green Lake negotiations has been exposed. After review, this information will be sent to Delarion and Carsonric as part of the cooperation between the church and the secular power.

“The church’s actions this time were really swift.”

But what Shade cares about is not the group of cultists who tried to trigger a war, but unfortunately no plan succeeded under the eyes of the church. What he cares about is who rescued Jarvis Edwards.

"The Truth Society."

Sirius was behind Miss Benanis, wiping her wet blond hair with a towel. The two set out in the afternoon to solve the few remaining tasks on the witches' task list with Granny Cassandra. When I came back from the rain just now, I happened to encounter a battle between the church and the cultists outside the city.

This is not a coincidence, but the impact of the battle between the ring magicians is too great. Miss Benanis has a strong sense of the earth, and Granny Cassandra, the oldest member of the Council, has an astonishing sense of perception. So Miss Benanis asked Mother-in-law Cassandra to come back first, and she braved the rain to investigate the situation and encountered the whole process of the incident:

"It must be the Truth Society. The sage-level relic they used during their retreat is very famous. Moreover, the people who currently hold the thirteen keys have appeared. Only the key in the hands of the Truth Society has not yet appeared. They cannot always Holding the key, but not coming to Green Lake?"

Miss Benenice said, Shade nodded:

"The Truth Society has a strong purpose in everything it does. I don't know if they want to do any experiments this time, or if they simply want the information on Laplace Klein Howard's human body refinement and space-time research. I wonder if Miss Paavo will come."

"I have some friendship with her. Although that woman studies mathematics almost crazy, she is still a reasonable person. If she really shows up, I might be able to convince her to help us. Their purpose is different from ours. There must be a conflict.”

Megan sat on a chair nearby and said, but when she met and cooperated with Miss Paavo, she herself was also in a stage of madness due to abnormal soul. Therefore, it feels really subtle for her to say that Miss Paavo is like a "madman".

"Speaking of which, is something going on in the city? Half an hour ago, I heard the guests dining on the first floor say that many people in the city went fishing in the Duin River today. It is raining so heavily now, which is suitable for Fishing weather?”

Shade looked out the window again. Little Mia was lying on the windowsill taking a nap, and the city outside the first layer of glass was shrouded in violent heavy rain. It is said that the rainfall will decrease tonight, otherwise we will really have to worry about the risk of urban flooding.

"I know this. I sent someone to inquire about it this afternoon."

Hillis, who was combing Miss Benenice's hair, replied:

"Someone was fishing in the Duin River this morning and found an emerald from the belly of the fish. Then someone picked up a gold coin on the side of the Duin River. Then it was rumored that heavy rain washed away the ancient tombs in the upper reaches of the river, causing the buried treasure to appear down the river. In the river section of the city. The people you mentioned are trying their luck. I heard that there are many people who plan to go upstream to see if they can find the source of those 'treasures'."

"Actually?"

Shade asked again, wondering how the cat on the window sill fell asleep when the rain outside was so loud.

"It's probably because of the space connection that some treasure fell into the river."

Audrey said, they don't care about this:

"It's just some ordinary property. If something happens, the church will take care of it. Oh, when I went upstairs just now, Helena asked me to tell you about the homeless man you arranged to temporarily live in the back kitchen yesterday. The child, John, ran out again today holding an umbrella and holding his dog. He said that this kind of weather is perfect for picking up garbage."

"What homeless kid?"

Miss Benenice had never heard of this, so Shade explained about the garbage boy and his puppy who lived in the back alley:

"I am thinking that after the Green Lake incident is over, I will arrange for the Green Lake Orphanage to adopt him, and Lecia can help. Or I may arrange for him to go to the church to receive relief, stay in the church and join the choir in the future, and behave well when he grows up. If he is pious, he can become a local priest, or if he is willing to choose his own life, Iluna can help with this."

"I didn't expect you to pay attention to this kind of thing. You can also let him stay at the Green Lake Hotel to help, with food and accommodation included. Solon and Helena receive donations from Paradise Island Pharmaceuticals every year to maintain the operation of this hotel and let them help. No problem, besides, there is a shortage of manpower here. Since the child is familiar with the environment here, there is no need to let him go elsewhere. "

Audrey said casually, and then saw Miss Bernice looking at her in surprise:

"You have really changed a lot."

"What did you think of me before?"

"It's better not to say anything."

"That's all in the past. Let's do the present things first. The Oracle Association predicts that the recent space instability in Green Lake and surrounding areas will cause bigger problems. I hope it can last until Wednesday night. If the battle It would be ridiculous if Green Lake is gone before it even starts.”

Outside the window, the scenery of the "Glass Blast Furnace" that was originally part of the City of Glass still exists on the horizon, and in the sky covered with dark clouds, fine cracks still exist after the moon disappears and the sun rises.

The meeting time agreed with the cultists was eight o'clock in the evening, so Shade could enjoy dinner peacefully in the hotel. However, he did not rest after dinner. Instead, he went to the cruise ship parked by Green Lake with Miss Sylvia and Luvia. After meeting Megan who had set off one step ahead, the big witch wanted to help determine what Shade had summoned. Whether that small wooden boat has the ability to penetrate space barriers will be quite helpful for Wednesday's operation.

The association's weather forecast was correct, and the rain became much lighter in the evening. As the carriage passed through the streets and alleys of the city, the gas street lamps on the roadside also lit up one by one. The three people in the carriage talked about the test plan for a while. In addition to the three people, Shade also carried a butterfly calling flute. If necessary, Grace and Helen could come to help.

It's just that the journey that shouldn't have gone wrong still went wrong in the middle of the journey. The traveling carriage suddenly stopped, and then the girl driving called the witch in the carriage:

"Miss, it may take us longer to get to our destination."

"what happened?"

The three people in the carriage didn't notice anything unusual just now. When they opened the side window of the carriage, they suddenly saw the "glass blast furnace" standing not far away. This is not an illusion, it is real. Even the surrounding street scene is that of Michaela Blast Furnace City.

"Powerful spatial perception!"

Shade closed his eyes and quickly came to the conclusion:

"We are indeed in the city on the south shore of Green Lake."

"Is there such a thing?"

Luvia glanced outside, then tossed a coin and looked at the result:

"We have no choice but to go back to the north. The border is so tense now, so I'm afraid it will be a little troublesome for us to cross the border."

"It doesn't matter. Illusion will do. You should have encountered a short-term, small-scale space connection just now. I bet that if the matter on the central island of Green Lake is not resolved quickly, you will encounter more troublesome situations than this when traveling in the future."

The carriage could only turn around and start again.

Because of such an accident, when the group arrived on Megan's cruise ship, they were twenty minutes late than planned. If they didn't show up again, Megan, who arrived early but couldn't wait for anyone, would even have to call the hotel for rescue.

Everyone had no choice but to test the boat as planned. As for Megan's cruise ship, it is the second stronghold of the Witch Council in the Green Lake area, so it can be transferred at any time if the Green Lake Hotel is lost.

When the Witches discussed the plan this morning, they also discussed the idea of ​​putting some Edwards on the cruise ship on Wednesday night to form two battlefields to divide the enemy. However, the specific method of how to do this has not yet been discussed. However, there are enough manpower this time, so even if they are separated, there should not be a big problem.

The cruise ship sailed into Green Lake. Under the moonlight, the bone meal in Shade's hand on the edge of the deck fell into the water. With a bubbling sound, the wet boat floated up from the water next to the cruise ship, causing water to splash onto the hull of the cruise ship.

There was still a layer of water on the board of the small wooden boat, as if the boat had been waiting for its owner, Shade.

The first test was to see if the boat could still be used in Shade's absence.

This test is very simple. The first part is to keep Shade away to test whether the ship can still exist. The second part is to have the witches and Luvia board the boat respectively to test whether it can be operated.
