Whispering Verse

Chapter 2947 The end of the Moon of Dead Leaves

"It's ten rings now? Doctor, I remember you were still nine rings on Monday."

Shade said with some surprise, and the material of the life ring is still brass. If it weren't for the addition of a blasphemous [Devil] in the core spirit rune, he would even doubt whether what happened on Monday night really happened.

"The [Demon Hunter] spirit rune is enough as the nine-level sublimation language spirit rune. After I digest the power of the fire demon, it is only a matter of time before I am promoted to the tenth level."

The doctor didn't look back. As he spoke, dense cracks appeared on the surface of the brass life ring. As there were more and more cracks, the brass peeled off and sparks flew everywhere, revealing the flowing fire obsidian material wrapped inside.

The cat barked at the doctor unhappily, probably because it didn't like the smell of sulfur, but Shade judged after careful observation:

"You've basically balanced those two forces."

"Yes, and these two forces did not cancel each other out due to mutual checks and balances. Instead, they made me stronger than before."

Only then did he take back his life ring:

"This week I listened to the hunter from the past tell a lot of stories at home - you don't have to look for it. He said that I had learned almost everything and had left. I also roughly understood the lofty ideals held by the ancient hunters. I know that I am far less great than them. If it were not for my personal experience, I would definitely try my best to avoid anything related to this.”

He crossed his hands and looked at Shade opposite:

"Of all the people I know, you are probably the only one who has nothing to do with demons but is still willing to hunt them."

"Doctor, I didn't come here so late just to hear you praise me again."

Dr. Schneider then laughed:

"Next week, next week I will be able to fully recover, which is much faster than I thought. If you still need my help then, you can always call me to the Vista Grove."

"Is your clinic no longer in business? A lot of things have been delayed some time ago, right?"

Shade's "detective" career does not require business every day, but being a psychiatrist requires frequent diagnosis.

"Detective, I'm not a little doctor who does consultations. I opened my own psychological clinic and hired others to do consultations with me. So as long as I don't go out for two or three months, it doesn't actually affect the business here."

He directed the poker in front of the fireplace to stir the charcoal in the furnace to make the flame more intense:

"It's you, why do I feel that you look worried? The situation in the Vista Woodland is not optimistic, isn't it?"

"Some things are not going well, but they are only temporarily unsatisfactory. I'm just still thinking about what decision I will make in the end."

Of course the doctor didn't understand what he was talking about, so he comforted him a little and then talked about the devil again:

"After successfully obtaining the third Core Spirit Rune and possessing the power of a hunter, our actions in hunting demons may have to change in the future."

"You no longer need the power of devouring demons?"

"No, no, of course I need it, and the more the better. I mean, if I want to advance to the next level through the power of demons, ordinary demons may not be enough for me. I need things like human pus, The Stone Mirror Demon - Goethe is a real ancient demon. I plan to go out for a while to find the relics after helping you solve the problem in the Vesta Grove."

"The old hunter said that there are two other weapons forged by hunters in the third era, [Witcher Encyclopedia] and [Lightless Path]?"

Shade asked, and the doctor nodded in surprise:

"Yes, I didn't expect you to guess it. This is not only to continue to devour demons in the future, but also to prepare for my promotion to the Thirteenth Ring. Now that the end of the road is clear, the oldest guy and I must have something. war.

If I make preparations by then, it will definitely be too late. I think with my current progress, or the progress of your encounter with the devil, maybe by this time next year or the year after, I will have already reached the top of the Thirteenth Ring. "

Shade raised his eyebrows:

"So, do you know where the Demon King is? Or can you find him directly?"

The doctor shook his head, looked around, and then mysteriously raised his fingers in a silent gesture. The firelight in the fireplace seemed to dim a lot at this moment, but Shade didn't know what he wanted to express.

"Meow~"

The cat continued to meow, and Shade discovered that among the five people in the group, little Mia had always disliked the doctor.

The doctor has been recuperating and regulating his strength this week, so he has no time to prepare special potions or alchemical weapons for Shade. But of course he wouldn't let Shade leave empty-handed. After completely devouring the power of the fire demon, he accidentally got another important piece of information.

Of course, that's not news about the Ancients of Vesta Grove:

"You know the [Original] series of playing cards, right?"

Shade put down his tea cup and leaned forward:

"Doctor, are you sure you want to ask this?"

Bill Schneider smiled and shook his head:

"Okay, let me tell you the truth. There is a scene in the demon's memory where [Creation Time] appears, and that is the memory of the Vesta Grove, not thousands of years ago. Your expression now If you use psychological analysis...well, you don't have to be a psychiatrist to see your excitement.

[Origin·Time] is in the Vista Forest. It knows that there is a secret gathering in the local area. The gathering is quite secretive. The card once appeared in that secret gathering. This memory is recent, so you should still be able to find it. "

"Doctor, please tell me directly how to enter the so-called secret gathering."

The doctor continued to smile:

"Only at this time can we see your emotions. You are too serious at ordinary times. The gathering is held in the city. Only members with special invitations can enter in a specific way."

"Invitation? Does the devil have it? Or does Director Kant have it?"

"Don't worry, the person holding the invitation appeared in the devil's memory. There is an old bookstore in the old city in the northeast of Vista City. The old store manager has the invitation. "

Shade carefully wrote down the information, but the doctor warned:

"You must remember that this is the information I got from the devil's memory."

"So, this could also be a trap? ”

The doctor did not deny this conjecture:

“I know you have always wanted to collect a complete set of the original series of Rhodes cards, and I don’t object to your hobby. But you must be careful. At this time, we suddenly learned a piece of information that you must investigate. This is really a coincidence. "

Perhaps the doctor's suspicion is indeed justified, but Shade must go to that place to see it.

Before Shade returned to Vestal Forest from Tobesk that night, Tobesk encountered a small earthquake, but it was later found that the earthquake was just a natural earthquake. After all, Tobesk is not the kind of place where there are no earthquakes for hundreds of years.

In Vestal Forest, where there are no earthquakes, perhaps ordinary citizens are relieved because of the arrival of the weekend, and complaining about the early end of the First Snow Music Festival. But in those corners of the city and the vast forests that they cannot see, the ring warlocks of the Orthodox Church are still solving disasters that ordinary people cannot imagine.

The end of Friday means the official end of the tenth month of 1854 - the Dead Leaf Moon, and the beginning of a new month means that Shade can go to the destroyed era to see Adele again.

He has experienced too many things in this month, and he now has a lot to say to Adele. This thought The method was not expressed in action. That is, when midnight arrived, Shad opened his eyes in bed.

He did not have the habit of sleeping with the lights on. At this time, the only light source in the room was the halo of the moon that penetrated the curtains.

Luvia hugged his neck, and Dorothy on the other side hugged his arms. The girls who fell into a deep sleep after playing were sleeping soundly, so he carefully pulled his neck and arms out of their arms and temporarily left the bedroom under the pretext of "going to the bathroom".

He changed his clothes in the bathroom - obviously he could not go to see Adele in pajamas and slippers. After listening for a while to make sure that the writer lady and the fortune teller lady in the bedroom were sleeping soundly, he sat on the edge of the bathtub and aimed the black key hanging on his neck at the small keyhole on the door pendant. The key was almost longer than the "door", so he successfully entered the keyhole.

Shad said in a very light voice:

"May the world tree bless me in infinite time! ”

[Outsider, please pay attention. Message from "Father of Infinite Trees": You are allowed to bring an extra relic this time.]

"Perfume bottle."

With a gentle push, the door of the pendant opened to the inner layer, and the endless white mist that diffused from it almost immediately submerged him.

[Outsider, you have stepped into the "Time Corridor".]

[Message from the ancient god "Father of Infinite Trees":]

[Past life·Sixth Era, Old World, End City·Tobesk.]

[Event: Tobesk, the last era.]

[Duration is arbitrary (7/∞).]

[You have obtained additional information.]

[You have stepped into non-existent history.]

[The figure of the Father of Infinite Trees is watching you.]

[Note that during this exploration, you cannot leave the range of Saint Teresa Square.]

[Note that you are allowed to bring any spellcasting materials into this time.]

[Note that you can return to the "present" time by defeating any powerful enemy with the Time Key.]

"The evil things encountered in the previous six times all correspond to different types of disasters. So will the enemy this time be the evil creature of time - the paradox worm? "

With this thought in mind, Shade stepped forward in the white mist.
