Whispering Verse

Chapter 2813 [The Ring of Ending]

The box didn't have a lock, but it was locked using the magician's method. Although ordinary people couldn't open it, the box automatically popped open after the sorceress cast a spell, and there was a folded letter and a ring inside.

She opened the letter first, and the handwriting of the letter immediately confirmed who the "astrologer" was:

[If the stars are not kidding me, then I am very happy that in seventy years there will still be people like me, following the footsteps of the moon. Unfortunately, the answer does not lie in Ximu Town, nor in Vista Grove. Although there is a statue of the Moon God here, it is not left to us.

The answer is probably further north, and I don't know if I can find it, and I don't know if you can find it. Please use the ring to resolve the curse here so that this little girl's home will not be sealed off by the church after her death. After this, the ring is left to you as a gift in the hope that it will also curb your curse. 】

The signature is - the astrologer Euclid, and the time is indeed 1750.

"He foresaw your coming more than seventy years ago? Is his divination ability a little too exaggerated?"

Shade asked, and the sorceress shook her head:

"This astrologer was able to foresee the disaster of the 'Red Moon Change' in 1750 (Chapter 2583). What's the surprise when he foresaw my arrival? Although I have thirteen rings, I don't think I am better than A disaster like the 'Red Moon Change'."

This letter is not a forgery. It has the same handwriting as the letter Shade found in the wall of his home with [The Source of Chaos] saying "The Chosen One of the Moon will spend the night at No. 6 Saint Teresa Square."

"But don't take the astrologer too seriously. You see, he obviously doesn't know that I came with you. He only saw me, not you. Don't underestimate the soothsayers, but don't underestimate them either. I’m so in awe of them, this group of people.”

She didn't know what she thought of, so she closed the letter and picked up the ring in the box. This is a relic. Nothing has happened to it for so many years because the ring has been properly stored. A thin and short silver chain is wrapped around the ring's ring. The silver chain has miraculous elements.

As for the ring itself, it’s obviously a women’s ring based on the style. The band of the ring is silver, and the surface of the ring is a very, very small gray gemstone, which is surrounded by two small snakes, one black and one silver, biting each other's tails.

There are obvious ancient words about the size of rice grains on the outside of the ring. When translated, the meaning is probably——

[The cycle of new and old is the answer to the change of destiny. 】

Shade felt that this wording method was quite familiar, and the librarian lady directly recognized what it was:

"The Keeper-level relic [The Ring of Endings], why is this thing here?"

Seeing that Shade didn't seem to know what it was, she explained:

"Although this relic is of the Keeper level, its effect is quite powerful: it reverses the effects exerted on the user. In other words, it is a very effective relic to expel the curse. Wearing it, it can even rebound to a certain extent. Powerful spell attack."

She checked it carefully and made sure it was genuine:

"This relic has not appeared for hundreds of years. Over the years, countless people have tried to find it, hoping to use it to expel some weak but very troublesome curses. I didn't expect that it would be in the hands of an ordinary person."

Shade nodded in surprise. He was thinking about "Mia's Seven Commandments" at this time. The first seven rings each have their own effects, but each has its shortcomings. The [Metamorphosis Ring] can provide a second body, but it requires speaking and chanting;

[Fish Training Ring] can make speechless creatures speak, but the user cannot be a creature that likes to eat fish, such as cats;

[Vampire Ring] can turn other races into vampires, but it also gives the user a chance of being infected with blood thirst;

[Epidemic Doctor Ring] can make people resist natural or supernatural diseases such as blood thirst, but if the user is not a human, the life span will be reduced;

[The Ring of Immortality] can increase people's lifespan, but unfortunately it can severely weaken their emotions;

[The Ring of Mood] can be used to store emotions to resist the grinding of the former, but this ring will cause blindness;

[Eye of the Crow] Obtained from the "Crow's Nest" after defeating the demon in Moon Bay not long ago. It allows the user to increase vision and offset the cost of blindness, but the user will also be cursed to grow crow feathers.

Among the negative characteristics of the first seven rings, they are either "price" or "disease", but "growing crow feathers" is the purest curse, which means it can be offset by this [Ring of the Ending].

"So what are the negative characteristics of this ring? Can the negative characteristics be offset by 'transforming into another body'?"

Shade asked expectantly, and the sorceress certainly didn't know what he was expecting:

"Your statement is strange, but you will probably be disappointed. The negative characteristics of this relic are ordinary. Did you see the two snakes biting each other's tails surrounding the ring?

This means cyclical and interconnected. If you use this ring to offset a certain curse, the curse does not actually disappear, but becomes a physical tail that appears behind you. At a certain point in time, the curse stored in the tail will erupt again, but it will soon reappear. It will become a tail.

During this cycle, the effectiveness of the curse will gradually weaken until it disappears completely after several cycles. Of course, some secret techniques can also be used to remove the tail to achieve the effect of solving the tail and the curse in advance. "

"So the negative effect is growing a tail, which is not very difficult to accept."

Shade said, thinking of Mia growing two tails, but then he asked again:

"What if the person using the ring originally had a tail?"

The black-haired sorceress glanced behind Shade subconsciously:

"This is another situation. The curse will flow into the tail and exist there permanently. It will no longer erupt. The curse will no longer affect the body, but soon the tail will fall off and become another you and try to kill you. Kill you so that it can be freed from its curse."

Shade then imagined Mia losing her tail, and the "dark version" Mia chasing the "tailless version" Mia, and then shook his head violently, feeling that this was a bit too scary.

"However, apart from counteracting the curse, basic spells such as rebounding fireballs do not have much negative effects. The academy's containment records even say that this ring can reverse other effects, but no one has ever found out how to do it. "

She suddenly raised her eyebrows and looked at Shade:

"Guess, can this ring help you go back? Reversal the effect of time exile?"

Shade did not give his opinion immediately, but thought for a moment before saying:

"Isn't this impossible? This is just a keeper-level relic, and you yourself said that its other effects are all written in books, but in fact we don't know how to do them. What's more, This is the relic that the astrologer gave you to suppress the curse. If we really succeed, who knows whether it will stay in the present or follow me directly to the future?"

The black-haired sorceress shook her head:

"But haven't I postponed the curse until after my death? This relic has little effect on me now.

Okay, okay, let's first see how the story of the actress and the knight ends. Since you have taken other people's things, of course you have to help them solve their troubles. As for the astrologer Euclid, I was about to give up, but I didn’t expect that there were still clues. "

The two did not go out immediately, but went to Marissa's room on the second floor. Although they didn't find the crow feather as Shade said, they did find the girl's diary.

Unlike the outsiders who don't like to keep diaries, but still force themselves to make up diaries like "Nothing to do today" every day, girls who are actively preparing for the music conservatory actually have the habit of writing diaries.

Judging from the diary, the girl would uncontrollably turn into a crow every evening starting three months ago, and then return to form at a random time between eight o'clock and twelve o'clock at night.

She was quite frightened and distressed by this, because she didn't know what was happening to her, so she didn't even dare to go to the church to seek help, for fear that she was haunted by demons and would never be able to leave once the church found out.

She fully expressed her fears in her diary, and she also mentioned her relationship with Knight Farris. She also loved that young man deeply, but because of her current situation, she no longer dared to contact him for fear of injuring him, but she was reluctant to say cruel words to completely sever ties with him.

Judging from the pain, entanglement, fear and despair that the girl expressed in her diary, I am afraid that she will soon be on the verge of collapse. But even though he figured out what happened to her, Shade still didn't understand how this curse appeared.

Marisa herself also wrote in her diary. She carefully recalled whether she had ever experienced disrespecting gods or coming into contact with strange things, but she thought she had not.

"Why are you thinking so much? Since the church has already sent people, maybe the matter has come to light. Let's go and see the end of this story."

Because the two of them started relatively late, when they arrived at the nameless lake in the dense forest outside the city, it seemed that the most sensational part was over.

The two ring wizards of the church stood helplessly by the tree, watching the young men and women by the lake hugging each other and crying.

Now, although the setting sun has completely disappeared and night has fallen, it is not yet eight o'clock, but the young girl has fully recovered. But there were traces of feathers on her palms and face, and there was obviously something wrong.

Shade and Ms. Carter did not cover up their footsteps, so the two ring warlocks, respectively the fifth and seventh rings, quickly discovered them.

The arrival of the stranger certainly made the Ring Warlocks wary, but a look from the sorceress made them subconsciously take two steps back, and they immediately realized that this was not an opponent they could beat.
