Whispering Verse

Then everyone discussed their plans again. After they dispersed in the study, Shade went to Luvia alone and asked about the candidates:

"I have been busy with Mrs. Jude's affairs the past few days, and I forgot to ask you, is Miss Elisa a candidate?"

Luvia shook her head decisively:

"Although she is a dragonborn and has a special gift of light, she is not based on her power. She does not qualify as a 'newborn dragon', right? I have recently made up for the knowledge of dragons. Miss Eleser at least Is he also a young dragon?"

"It's okay if it's not."

Shade had no regrets and leaned against the wall of the corridor easily:

"In a few days, I will arrange for you to meet with a group of people from the [New World Mutual Aid Association] to confirm whether the top-ranked John Flynn is the first pick. This matter cannot be postponed. I feel that the final battle will happen at any time. It may break out, it just depends on when the cultists complete the god-summoning ritual."

"Just listen to you. Anyway, the thing in that huge dragon egg cannot become the chosen one. This is our bottom line. As for the others, it is up to you to judge. After all, you know each of them best."

Luvia said this, looked towards the end of the corridor, and then changed the topic with a smile:

"Where are you going to spend the night tonight? Megan and Audrey have reunited with you after a long absence. You should stay in their room, right?"

"Ah, this"

"I know you guys show up together in the evening, so you must have done nothing good during the day."

The purple-eyed girl complained softly, then pursed her lips and said:

"Go back and rest tonight. I know that the two sisters definitely didn't spare you during the day. But if you have time recently, can you come to my place?"

"Of course, I'm sorry, have I been neglecting you a bit lately?"

Luvia smiled and shook her head:

"What are you talking about? I know you are doing serious things. Sometimes I feel that the tasks we have placed on you are too heavy."

She stood up on tiptoes and kissed the corner of Shade's lips:

"Go back and rest. I see that you have been frowning in the past few days. You must have a lot of worries, right? Don't worry, Shade, because if you are worried, I will be just as worried as you."

Of course, Shade's troubles are not his own mental internal friction. The evil god [Dragon-Eating Demon] that will almost certainly appear in Moon Bay will be the strongest enemy that outsiders encounter when they come to this world.

Although he has Miss Isabella, the vampire Duke and "Gluttony" as his trump cards, it's really hard to say how many he will be able to call upon by then.

If possible, Shade would also like to find those ocean gods who are hostile to the evil god [Dragon Devourer] to see if he can get help from them. But unfortunately, today's ocean gods are all evil gods, and Shade has only interacted with the "Three Evil Gods of Coldwater Port" among them, and the intersection is not deep.

Shade has not even had direct contact with the fish-men's protector [Lord of the Scarlet Spiral] and the furious ocean storm controller [Rage Storm]. He has only obtained the divinity they left behind in the material world and communicated with their teachings. The regiment was seriously at odds with each other.

As for the original drowned person [God of the Deep Sea Drowned], although Shade had met him once when he fell in Green Lake, he had no "contact information", and the relationship between the two parties was not good or bad enough to Shade communicated with him.

Thinking of this, he became even more troubled, so early on Saturday morning, after being woken up by the "Little Mia Alarm Clock" beside his pillow, Shade sat up and looked out the window at the rainy morning, and planned to go to the hotel while today was the weekend. Take a tour of the cold water ports on the northwestern coast of Delrayon.

He didn't expect anything to be gained, but he had to give it a try after all.

"Meow!"

The cat rubbed Shade's hand gently, as if it understood Shade's troubles, but then it happily jumped out of bed and ran to the living room.

The reason why little Mia was not put in the closet last night was that Dorothy had been "unwell" in recent days, and Carina had a meeting this morning, and she was worried that she would not be able to get up if she stayed in Shade's bedroom overnight. So the red-haired witch slept on her side, which only intensified the duchess's deep hatred of morning meetings.

Until Shade and Dorothy had breakfast with the maids, Carina still had not returned from the parliament. But the good news is that the unusually bright night sky last night subsided on its own after dawn, and at least so far, there has been no problem with the sun's rays.

After asking Dorothy about her plan to write a manuscript at home today, Shade left little Mia at home. However, he did not go to other cities first, but first took a carriage to Old John's pawn shop to pick up the "Broken Holy Emblem of the Ancient God [Dragon of Glory]" ordered by Luvia.

The price of this thing must be quite expensive. Although there are almost no traces of miracle elements on the physical object that Shade saw, no one would doubt its value.

The holy symbol of the "Dragon of Glory" is the pattern of a luminous dragon head, and its meaning is easy to understand. The holy emblem of the evil god [Dragon Devourer] is also a dragon, but the whole dragon is not just the dragon head.

"How is things going in Moon Bay?"

When Shade was confirming the goods, the old man behind the counter suddenly asked. Shade raised his head and glanced at him:

"Dad John, how do you know that we are in contact with Moon Bay?"

"Did Anat buy this just for fun?"

the old man asked as he opened the morning newspaper.

"Yuewan is in a lot of chaos right now. Things are very lively this time. There are even traitors in the Zhengshen Church. Now the Dawn Church in the local parish is still solemn."

Shade said simply:

"The [Dragon Feast Order] seems to be working hard for the chosen ones. The turmoil in Tianyue Bay a few days ago should have spread throughout the material world. But I am very curious. What does the [Light Worshiper Training Association] want this time? What to do. Although they also intend to get involved with the chosen ones, there is almost no news of their actions in Moon Bay."

Old John shrugged:

"Haven't that group of lunatics been committed to turning everyone into light so as to complete the evolution of life forms? This time, their purpose is of course still the same."

"Didn't your monastery take action in Moon Bay this time?"

Shade asked again, and Old John did not hide it:

"Why didn't you take action? Our people are investigating [Eternal Light] locally. I think you should know about this organization. We are more interested in this organization than [Dragon Feast Order] and [Light Worshiper Training Society]. interest."

He raised his eyes over Shade's shoulder to make sure no one was eavesdropping at the door, and then lowered his voice and said:

"The Priory intends to observe and observe again. If they are really an enthusiastic organization that helps civilians, we hope to absorb them as part of us. However, it seems that we have encountered some problems at present. Some people in this organization are really too extreme. "

Shade suddenly became interested:

"Can you tell me about your investigation results? How about selling me information?"

"Forget selling information, detective, how about information exchange? Anat always buys strange things, and you always go to cities where big things are going to happen. No matter how stupid I am, I know there must be something fishy with you."

The old man knocked on the counter table:

"What's going on with the local vampires? Do they really want to break the secret agreement? I want to know this."

"It has nothing to do with most of the local vampires. You are very lucky. I happen to have a few local vampire friends."

So Shade briefly talked about the problems currently faced by the vampires in Moon Bay, as well as the suspicion of the local vampires towards their compatriots in the New World. He has a very good relationship with the Guiding Light Monastery, and an even better relationship with Old John, so he did not hide it and said that the local vampire race was trying to find ways to "prove their innocence" for themselves.

Old John was very satisfied with this information. After all, the vampires were scattered throughout Moon Bay and kept a relatively low profile. No one knew their specific situation without introduction from acquaintances. The information provided by Shade was already very detailed.

As for the information on [Eternal Light], Old John will sort it out and send it directly to Shade’s home. Shade can just wait at home to get it:

"We only know their structure and have sorted out the various things they have done in Moon Bay in the past three years. We don't know how many ring warlocks are behind this organization, but the ring warlocks behind them are definitely very strong."

After returning home, Shade went to Coldwater Port again for the first time in a long time. There was also light rain in Coldwater Port today, and the temperature was even colder than Tobesk.

Shade first went to visit Mr. Edmond, and then went to the Aurora Mansion to sit for a while. Nothing happened during this period.

Because today was a Saturday afternoon and there was still a meeting, Shade thought he would only stay in Coldwater Port for one morning, so before lunch time, he went to the black market in the Coldwater Port dock area to check out the special acquisitions he had listed. Coin commission.

Unexpectedly, the commission actually came to fruition. Although I only acquired a clerical grade [Dragon Blood Treasure Coin], this was an unexpected surprise.

This relic, Shad, was previously obtained in the "Balance of Life and Death" event in Fort Mibas (Chapter 649). Its function is to stain the coin with blood and place it in the center of a piece of parchment that is large enough and is at least 20 years old. A bloody line will extend from the center of the coin to outline a simple map to help find the dragon's treasure.

Of course, the prerequisite for triggering the effect is that there really is a "dragon treasure" near the user. And in the end, no matter what is marked, even if it is just a relatively worthless herb like "Ambergris", the coin will be consumed.

As for the clerical grade rating, it comes from the fact that after the relic effect is triggered, the triggerer's luck will become extremely bad before the treasure is found. Extremely bad luck will seriously affect the treasure hunting trip, and the "spiral of doom" effect produced by this will often cause considerable trouble.
