Whispering Verse

The middle-aged man, who looked like a deformed boy, drooped his eyelids slightly and exhaled deeply through his nose:

"Yes, I have no happiness worth remembering in my life. I only have her. I have seen so many deaths and experienced so many things. It all seems to be destined."

Dark pus flowed from the palm of Shade's right hand:

"Everyone is mortal, and you should understand this."

Joey Barton's eyes seemed to be shining at this moment. Shade was determined to witness the epic of the Sixth Age, and he was also determined to find the one he loved:

"Yes, mortals are mortal, and all things are destined to perish. So, if Fort Midhill is destroyed, then this is destiny. If tens of millions of people die here, then this is their destiny. death."

"In this case, Joey Barton, we are no longer friends, and I will definitely stop you."

"Mr. Watson, yes, if you want to stop me, then we are enemies! I really appreciate you, but the paths we take are not the same."

Before he finished speaking, dark traces of light fell from the fog. At some point, the huge figure in black robes appeared in the thick fog behind Joey Barton. . The death scythe slashed down in a manner that brought about the end of all things, and even the surrounding fog became thinner.

He didn't hold back at all with this blow. But the dark light that seemed to be able to penetrate everything fell, but failed to touch the cold and solid earth in the narrow room.

Shade raised his dark arms that were already covered in pus, holding the fallen sickle tightly in his hands:

"Sorry, I'm immune to instant death attacks."

The demonic power is slowly dissolving due to contact with the scythe. In the end, it became Shade holding the huge scythe with his bare hands. It could not bring Shade to the end of his life, because Shade had already understood the power of false immortality:

"All death is false to me. No one can bring me death except myself!"

Even as the Chosen One, Joey Barton couldn't let the shadow of Death appear behind him for a long time, and as the scythe disappeared, Shade also disappeared into the fog.

The short middle-aged man looked at the dense fog around him with vigilance. Then, dense red light spots appeared in the dense fog. If you look closely, you will see translucent red butterflies flying in the fog, bringing gorgeous colors to this world of black, white and gray.

A bright silver light appeared directly in front, and as the silver light bloomed, cross marks of light came straight towards him. A short scythe appeared in Mr. Barton's hand. He swung the weapon with all his strength. The scythe collided with Silver Moon Slash, and both disappeared at the same time.

At the same time, there was a sound of wind above his head. Shade, who held the sword in both hands, fell from the air. Barton had no time to fight back and could only roll to the ground to dodge. But before he could stand up straight, the dark chains had already wrapped around his feet.

As Shade's right hand once again expanded into a huge black form and tugged violently, Joey Barton was thrown into the air by the chain.

With the huge power of the devil, Shade raised his right hand and swung the chain. The high-speed rotating chain even stirred up the surrounding white fog and made a noise that broke through the air.

When Shade felt that the rotation speed of the chain had reached the limit, he released the restriction on the length of the chain and stopped swinging. Joey Barton, who was at the end of the [Sin Chain], flew to the edge of the square with the chain like a cannonball, and hit the second-floor wall of the gray building head-on, directly destroying the building with a muffled sound.

"Ahem~"

Before he could get up from under the stone slabs of the ruins, the chains wrapped around his ankles tightened, and the chains dragged him out of the ruins again. Then a figure appeared in the sky. Shade, who was jumping high, reached down and fell from the air. Amidst the earthquake, he used his huge right hand to firmly pin Joey Barton to the ground, leaving only his head outside the giant hand.

Priest August is right. No matter how deceptive the death-killing effect of [Death Scythe] is, Joey Barton, the chosen one, was only a first-level warlock before the ceremony was held. In Hazama's dream where the power of the soul is prominent and even assisted by demonic power, he is no match for Shade.

"Mr. Barton, those who should leave should leave. Forcing those who leave to come back will only bring tragedy. Even if there are gods to help mortals escape the punishment of death, mortals will have to bear a huge price. There are people around me. Good example. You are only human, how do you want to bear that price?"

Shade's dark palm exerted a little force, and Joey Barton looked at this young man with a strange face with a ferocious expression:

"But if you don't try, how can you know the result? Since this damn fate made her leave and let me know how to bring her back, shouldn't I try?"

His eyeballs were bloodshot, and black mist seeped out of his pores:

"Ah~ah!"

With a roar, thick black mist burst out from his body. The sudden burst of power actually broke away from the devil's hand and even knocked Shade away.

This is not the power of a warlock. Shade sensed the strong whispering elements from the fog. This is the power of Hazama.

By the time Shade got up, Joey Barton was already holding on to the ground, slowly getting up among the ruins of the house. Then his feet lifted off the ground and started flying. The life ring appeared behind him, still a ring, but the flashing spiritual runes were indeed so abrupt and obvious:

Whisper - [The narrow space between life and death].

"Can such a thing still happen?"

Shade had a premonition that something was wrong.

"Mr. Watson, please forgive me and may you rest in peace."

The spiritual rune [The Narrow Room of Life and Death] bloomed with a dazzling black iron-colored spiritual light, and a transparent water film that was very difficult to observe was rising from the surroundings, covering the area where the two of them were.

The scenery in Mingming's field of vision has not changed at all, but the core spirit rune [Time and Space] is reminding Shade that the space is undergoing changes. The whispering elements are becoming more intense, and the life ring behind Joey Barton, who is flying low in the air with his feet off the ground, is getting bigger and bigger, until it swells to be larger than any building in the hazy fog.

The core spiritual runes are [Death] [Bird], the first-ring spiritual runes [Cemetery] [Spirit Summoning] [Black Hand] [The Gap of Life and Death] [Music]. The seven spiritual runes are taller than Shade, and the expanding and radiating spiritual light seems to be spitting out energy beams at the next moment.

"Her" reminder comes at the right time:

[Outlander, you have entered the "mysterious lock". 】

"Mystery lock?"

Only then did Shade understand:

"[The Narrow Room of Life and Death] is his secret lock? No matter how talented the chosen one is, is this time too exaggerated?"

At this time, he could no longer hide his strength. The life ring behind Sha De appeared, and the [Little Match Girl] and [Tree Kiss] bloomed simultaneously. Even with the third ring, he couldn't use the Mystic Lock completely, but at least at this time, snowflakes were falling in the narrow space, and the faint tree crown rustled, showing the power of the Mystic Lock.

Using its own incomplete Mystery Lock to offset the opponent's power, it only allows Shade to remain within the opponent's Mystery Lock without negative effects.

Compared with the huge life ring, Mr. Button in the air is like an ant at this time.

He stretched out his right index finger, and a jet-black beam of light shot out like a sharp arrow. Shade immediately dodged, and then there was only a boom~ a muffled sound, and all entities within a radius of 20 feet were blown away along with Shade and the flying snowflakes.

When he got up from the ground vomiting blood, the place where he had been standing had become a deep pit.

I thought it was a point-to-point attack, but I didn't expect it to be a range attack.

"There's something wrong. I'm a third-level person, and I even have divinity attached to me. Under normal circumstances, I still can't fully open the mystery lock. How did he do it? Even if his talent is amazing, where did he get so many spirits?"

Joey Barton extended his right hand and pointed a finger again, and Shade immediately pressed his right hand to the ground. Dark pus gushed out and enveloped his whole body like an eggshell.

There was a violent vibration accompanied by a muffled explosion. The demonic power barely protected Shade, but it still made Shade feel like his internal organs had been injured. This was just a casual blow from Joey Barton, not his full strength at all.

[If the perception is correct, Hazama is actively providing him with power. 】

"I never thought that one day I would be pulled into the Mystery Lock by someone else. I have always done this before. What should I do now?"

The demon runes on the palm of his hand faded, and the demon's power could not last long. Without Iluna's "balance" to suppress the talent of the chosen one, Shade would not be able to defeat the opponent.

"She" is chuckling:

[Run quickly. 】

"Run? I want to run too, but this is inside the mystery lock and I can't open it, oh!"

The third beam of black light and the fourth beam of black light struck together. Shade hurriedly jumped to high altitude. Before the explosion, he used [Raglai's Jump] to move ten meters higher.

It was difficult to borrow power at high altitude, but facing Shade's face, the huge black scythe slashed towards his body.

"Moonlight Great Sword!"

Orange and holy silver weapons appeared on each hand. The two weapons were crossed above the head and were smashed to the ground together with Shade at the next moment.

[Joy Barton must be in the narrow room to use the narrow room to open the mystery lock. He himself is still only a first-level warlock. 】

"So the best place to fight is away from the narrow room? Otherwise, he can use this level of thaumaturgy at any time?"

Shade crawled out from the crack in the ground, and the vague voice of Miss Aurora came again:

"Shad, where are you now? Why can't we hear your voice? Also, the church has also found the location of Joey Barton. You will be able to see them in a few minutes. Is it easy to retreat now?"

"I think I have no chance to see the people from the church. I'm in the Mystery Lock. Can you take me away from the Mystery Lock? It seems that I really can't beat them this time."

The more important reason is that the [Night Watcher] is not on him, otherwise Shade would be least afraid of the Mysterious Lock.

"Mysterious locks? My God, what happened? Wait five seconds!"
