Whispering Verse

If the six-ring warlock in front of him belongs to the [New World Mutual Aid Association], then we will understand the reason why he cooperated with others last time to intercept the [Remains of the Nameless One] in Tobesk.

As for Sha De's attitude towards this organization, Sha De doesn't care at all as long as it doesn't hinder him.

"That's it."

He lowered his head and looked at the three fossils:

"You take two, I'll keep one."

It wasn't that Xia De suddenly became greedy, but he thought of the fragments of the poem "The Dragon that Broken its Shell, the Seven-Colored Dragon Scales", leaving behind a fossil that might be useful.

This time the six-ring warlock didn't object, after all, he really couldn't beat Shade. So Shade was asked to choose first, but he did not take away the other two dragon eggs directly. Instead, he went outside first to avoid suspicion. When Shade finished his work, he also wanted to clear Freeman Hawthorne's memory in order to Prevent your identity from being revealed.

After the Silence Spell took effect and it was confirmed that the outside world could not hear the sound here, Shade looked at the squirming man on the ground.

After squatting down, put the muzzle of the gun against the opponent's forehead:

"I'll ask you, listen, about ten days ago, you, Herman Wood, and Georgia Black met at Crowley's Steam Baths, with three prostitutes present. What happened that night? "

Feeling the cold muzzle of the gun, Hawthorne's eyes widened slightly:

"What happened? Nothing happened."

Shade frowned, not because of the other party's harsh words, but because judging from his expression, Hawthorne didn't lie.

He then inquired further about the details of that night and learned that the three of them were really discussing business. When they left around 11 o'clock, Miss Lisa and the woman from the Parsifal Club who Shade had been in contact with were left in the bathhouse. Then the three of them took the remaining woman, the deceased, to other places to have fun. , they didn’t separate until after one o’clock.

Hawthorne seemed not to know anything about the deceased, nor did he know anything about what Miss Lisa said, "I vaguely heard that Mr. Black invited the other two people to see something interesting."

Shade also has a lie-detection spell on him. For such a villain who manipulates urban gangs, Shade is not afraid of using methods to force a confession, but in the end he is sure that he is telling the truth. Therefore, either Miss Lisa was groggy at the time and heard the wrong words, or Hawthorne's memory was modified by someone, and the modification method was quite clever.

"That's why the man with the black dragon scales on his face said that I couldn't find any clues at all. Therefore, the church knew about the female corpse, but there has been no progress in the investigation so far."

After figuring this out, Shade called the six-ring warlock waiting outside the door and watched him erase Hawthorne's memory of the last two hours. Shade did not mention what he had done, but knew that the man holding the "Sword of the Wind King" would continue to stay in Moon Bay:

"John Sinclair."

He introduced himself, probably thinking that he would meet Shade again in the future. Shade did not stay on the ship for long, and returned to the dock soon after.

"If Miss Lisa heard something wrong, it means that the body has nothing to do with those three people. The deceased was attacked on the way home. I still think it is more likely that their memory has been modified. "

On the one hand, it was because the ring warlock from the [Dragon Feast Order] appeared, which meant that the three of them were definitely involved. On the other hand, it was also because they believed in their own inspiration:

"The church doesn't know that [Dragon Feast Order] is involved in this matter, and their investigation direction may be misled. Memory modification. It seems that they need help from Siris."

Although the "Order of the Forgotten" has declined, Shade has no doubt about their expertise in memory manipulation. As for communicating with Siris who was far away in Willendale, it was too slow to send letters, so he could only rely on the mutual communication between the witches in the council.

Since Mr. Bernhardt was able to find out the identity of the unknown female corpse, and then find out the identity of Hawthorne, Black and Wood, the church should be able to find out soon. The ring warlock hiding behind the three people did not let the three people disappear, which shows that he is very confident in his ability to modify memory. Therefore, Xia De could only think of asking more professional people to help.

It was already seven o'clock in the evening when I got home. The edge of St. Teresa Square was filled with the light of gas street lamps. In the brightly lit home hidden by the curtains, little Mia circled around the fossil egg, but she soon became aware of it. Shitou lost interest, and Luvia listened to Shade talk about what he had seen in the past few days.

"Light and Dragon? The seventh chosen one corresponds to 'Light'. The ancient god of light, 'Dragon of Light', is the guardian of the dragon and has powers such as light, justice, and power. The legend of this ancient god remains to this day. Spread in the material world, the influence of dragons in ancient legends on modern culture originated from that ancient god."

In the study, the purple-eyed soothsayer lady wrote down the words "The dragon that broke the shell, the seven-color dragon scales", and placed two [Weak Cure] and two [Thunder God's Wrath] in her hands:

"There are too few clues. I don't recommend using these coins for divination now. But the ring magician organizations currently involved in this matter are the [Light Worshipers Training Society] and the [Dragon Eater Order]. The former studies light, and the latter studies dragons. , this is definitely not a coincidence.”

"It's just that they haven't surfaced yet, and it's difficult to conduct an investigation against them. I'm really looking forward to Miss Belindle's investigation of the Seven Glorious Families. This time, the dragon scales and this fragment were discovered because of this. .”

Luvia nodded:

"We haven't taken the initiative yet, and the clues are not clear. Miss Belindel's role is indeed crucial. Shade, don't wander around in Yuewan City. Go find the witch when you have time. Let’s have a heart-to-heart talk and drink some tea. This is the serious business, don’t be distracted by other things.”

"Louvia, don't you think what you said is strange?"

Shade blinked, and the purple-eyed girl said in confusion:

"What's weird? Isn't this wrong?"

In the absence of clues, Shade can only wait for a new turning point. So they didn't keep talking about this matter that night. It happened that the college delivered the ceremony materials he purchased this morning at nine o'clock in the evening, and Luvia assisted Shade in holding the ceremony in the attic. She knew that Shade was learning some kind of time magic, but Shade didn't say what it was specifically:

"This is a very high-end thaumaturgy. Even if the ceremony is held, it does not mean that it can be learned. Luvia, if you have time recently, can you talk to me more about the changes in the stars and the changes in the galaxy? I need this kind of knowledge."

"Um"

The purple-eyed girl smiled and asked:

"Can I understand that you are inviting me to stay at your place more often at night?"

And when midnight came, Luvia, who curled up in Shade's arms and fell asleep, naturally didn't know that Shade had entered that strange dream again.

The dark sun with streaks of fire in the dusky sky seems to be the eternal scenery of this dreamland. The Rapunzel sitting on the roof once again welcomed her beloved. While asking for warmth enthusiastically and boldly, she also once again provided Shade with new information.

However, after the cloud and rain first subsided, Rapunzel, who felt the warmth of Shade's soul, first mentioned another thing:

"Shad, have you met Adele Isabella?"

Shade was startled and looked at Rapunzel lying in his arms. The latter's eyes were filled with tears, not because she felt wronged, but because she would cry every time they had close contact, which was a characteristic that the short-haired Luvia did not have.

"It's not the Adele of today. Have you met the Adele of the past?"

Shade was not at a loss. He expected that the long-haired Luvia might know about it, so he did not intend to use lies to explain it away:

"Yes, last time when I contacted Miss Feliana through [Poem Solitaire] in the Witch Council, I accidentally came into contact with her. I didn't think about how to tell you about this. I'm sorry. You recognized that I held the meeting tonight That ceremony?”

After all, it was Shade who took the initiative to conceal it, and he expressed his apology.

"My knight, never say sorry to me. I don't know that ritual, I just smelled her scent from your soul. She passed on knowledge to you, but she didn't know that she would leave traces, arrogant Adele will never know why she lost to me.”

She hugged Xia De tightly and listened to Xia De's heartbeat on the rooftop filled with yellow sand:

"Did she say don't believe me? Did she mean to stop me?"

"Yeah, she also said, everything is."

"It's all my plan, everything is within my plan."

The long-haired girl pursed her lips and raised her head. There were tears in the purple eyes that were close at hand. This expression almost drove Shade crazy.

"She's right."

He said softly, and then kissed Shade with lips that tasted like tears:

"But only this time, it wasn't my plan. I failed again and again, and this time, I leave it all to you, all to you, my Shade."

This time she was really crying over this matter. She lay on Shade's chest again:

"Believe in Adele, she may be on the far side of time being destroyed, but she is capable. Grab her and let her be your strength too. Just don't tell her what I know about her. , otherwise she will be more suspicious that everything is my plan."

"What did you do to her in the past? Okay, okay. I won't ask anymore, so don't cry."

Soul clinging to soul, Shade saw Luvia raising her head again, and finally couldn't bear the impulse in his heart, and kissed her eyes gently, and then kissed away those tears.

The girl with purple eyes burst into laughter, and "she" in her ear made a vague sound:

【abnormal. 】
