Whispering Verse

Priest August, who personally ordered Shade not to kill anyone here, would certainly not kill Joey Barton.

This deformed middle-aged man with a penetrating hole in his forehead stood up tremblingly surrounded by thousands of white shadows. Iluna squinted at them and saw a large white mist pouring out over the water. :

"Look, it's a Mystery Lock. Finally, someone is going to use it!"

This is not a juncture between life and death. No matter how good Joey Barton's condition is, using the Mystery Lock means that he has to fight to the death.

After noticing the change in space, Shade, who was standing on the water, was not panicked. After the second ring was upgraded to the third ring a few months ago, he was even able to open the Mystery Lock and seal the human pus. Of course, he can do it this time.

[Tree Kiss] is not very lethal, and [Match Girl] may let Priest August and Sister Devlin know that he is the God Caller, so:

"Sleeping Princess!"

He held the sword in one hand and slashed forward. The darkness was split open, and the rich colors spread to the left and right. It was like a dark curtain was lifted, revealing the splendid royal palace.

The dilapidated city filled with white mist and the royal palace were spliced ​​together, but neither of them could completely cover the water. They were just like colorful fragments spliced ​​together on an oil painting, forcibly appearing on the water.

Iluna still looked at the scene in the distance with her face raised, and then she saw Shade turning around with a sword in one hand, and quickly climbed up the steps of the palace. The ice coffin fell from the sky and hit the highest platform of the palace. The lid of the coffin opened silently. Shade stretched out his hand and held the white hand deep in the ice coffin.

The witch with crimson hair walked out of the ice coffin, leaned slightly behind Shade, and stood with him.

"Another witch, I guess."

The seventeen-year-old girl whispered in a monotonous tone, squinting and looking at the two spliced ​​puzzle locks. Joey Barton charged towards the palace with the undead, and then the blazing dragon's breath swept away the undead.

The Mystery Lock can provide the caster with a home field advantage. Judging from the results, when both sides have the Mystery Lock open, Barton is being beaten by Shade and the Witch.

"Oh, that lady still has a tail. It looks like a dragon's tail. I killed a dragon some time ago."

Iluna continued to mutter.

The old priest smiled while sipping the tobacco, but said nothing, while Sister Devlin stretched her hand towards the flame in front of her.

"Feliana's Witch's Light!"

Shade and "Princess" stretched out their fingers at the same time, and the spreading golden light washed over everything. The "Sleeping Princess" mystery chain continues to erode the "narrow space between life and death", and Barton is retreating steadily. He never expected to encounter such a situation.

The red-haired girl breathed out the fiery dragon's breath again. Although Shade had never seen this move in the Gaddis Library, the dragon breath of the mixed dragon clan should not be underestimated.

But the fire didn't just come from the shadow of Miss Drago beside him, the [Night Watcher] in Shade's hand suddenly drew a bright red mark towards the ground. In the firelight, Sister Devlin, whose body was glowing with flames, slowly straightened up.

"ah?"

Shade didn't expect this scene either.

She bowed slightly to Shade, then stepped on the red carpet under her feet and walked towards the chaotic space at the junction of the Mystery Locks. Joy Barton looked at her in horror. The nun said nothing and threw a ball of flame with her hand. The flames fell inside the Mystery Lock [between life and death]. The next moment, the ruined city burst into flames, and the Mystery Lock was actually burning.

Sister Devlin is a genuine eleventh-circle warlock.

Mystery belongs to an independent space, and it is temporarily out of the waters of death. It weakens Joey Barton, but it strengthens Shade, a living person. Sister Devlin's shadow disappeared, Shade took advantage of the primordial fire to burn Barton's Mystery Lock, and [Night Watch] sprayed dazzling sunlight rays forward, completely destroying the dilapidated city that was on fire in the white mist.

Joey Barton was hit head-on by [Solar Ray] and fell back onto the water. All the illusions around him disappeared, and he rolled a few times before getting up with difficulty.

The red-haired girl also bowed slightly to Shade and returned to the ice coffin. Shade, who was a little exhausted, ended his mystery lock, stood on the water with his feet, and looked at the embarrassed middle-aged man, or rather a child, not far away.

Sister Devlin, who was beside the bonfire on the shore, took her hands with burn marks away from the bonfire and hid them in her sleeves.

Iluna stood up immediately:

"I think it's my turn and this fight should be over."

She also walked towards the end of the beach.

On the water surface illuminated by the dark moon, Joey Barton stood up with a wry smile:

"Mr. Hamilton, I didn't want to do this."

Holding the Rhodes card in his right hand, he raised it with trembling hands and placed it in front of his right eye. Although Shade didn't know what he wanted to do, he hurried forward and swept the moonlight sword forward, but the strange darkness behind Barton actually swallowed him.

He seemed to melt into the endless darkness at the end of the water, and even the darkness swallowed up the light of the dark moon.

There was no sound, everything was quiet, but Xia De's heart suddenly beat violently. He knew something was coming, coming from the deepest depths of death.

A giant bone hand wearing a bright gold bracelet slowly stretched out from the darkness and slapped onto the surface of the water. The bone hand had seven fingers. Then, another giant seven-fingered bone hand, also engraved with runes, stretched out from the darkness and slapped the water.

Shade felt that his blood pressure was almost so high that blood spurted out of his pores. The extreme sense of panic made him know that this was definitely not an existence that mortals should come into contact with.

"what?"

[The old god in charge of death left a mark here. 】

"ha?"

[Don't worry, it's just a mark, and it was borrowed by the power of all things and all things are impermanent. 】

"No one told me in advance that there is such an enemy! Why can he use cards like this? It's not fair!"

[Because he is the chosen one. Foreigners, what should you use to fight against the all-things-impermanence card? 】

"She" chuckled.

With two giant bony hands pressing on the water, a huge skull wearing a golden crown finally emerged from the darkness silently. There were golden flames in the eye sockets, and between the neatly arranged upper and lower teeth, there was a darkness that seemed to be able to swallow everything.

Shade waved the Rhodes deck flying in the sky back to his hand.

"Sunshine Gun!"

A clear and sharp sound came from very far away. Shade raised his head and saw hundreds of dark vortices forming above his head at the same time. Following the loud shout, Iluna on the shore suddenly moved forward. Run, and then jump into the sky, with long brown hair flowing behind him, and a dark golden scale floating above his head.

The golden thunder spear in his hand was dyed with a dark gold color, and the light illuminated the young and handsome face, and the sunlight spear penetrated the dark vortex in front of him.

Even death could not eliminate the sound. Amidst the thunderclaps, hundreds of thunder spears appeared from above Shade's head, bombarding the giant skeleton that had just emerged from the darkness of the end. Gu Zhen

"Today's scene is really..."

The old priest beside the campfire couldn't help but sigh.

The skeleton was disintegrating, but it still opened its huge mouth against the sunlight guns. The black ball of light between the teeth was rapidly expanding. Joey Barton's voice came from nowhere:

"Granted to you—death destined."

The black ball shatters, time freezes at this moment, everything ends, and great power spreads to everything around it through the power of the chosen ones and the impermanence of all things.

But the water was still so quiet, and the black light penetrated Shade, but he still stood where he was, unscathed.

"Why."

The marks left by the old gods were blown away by the sunlight gun thrown by the balanced chosen one. Joey Barton, who was completely out of power, reappeared, with the dark moon shining on him. He knelt on one knee on the water, having no strength to continue fighting.

Although the chosen one has powerful talents, he is only a first-level warlock after all. He is not like Darkness, who can still crush Shade's enemies without demons and talents.

"First of all, here is the end of everything, here is death itself, the power of death and the power of the end, which has no meaning here."

Shade said, then stretched out his hand and let the two Rhodes cards in front of him fly back. Those are [Impermanence·Balance] and [Impermanence·Darkness]. These are also cards that Shade can control like his arms:

“Moreover, you shouldn’t borrow the power of the Wanxiang Impermanence Card to unleash that attack just now.

Just when I was about to face the attack head-on, I discovered that the Impermanence Card can counteract the effect of the Impermanence Card. And your mastery of that card seems to be far inferior to my mastery of these two cards. "

"Everything is impermanent."

"Where did the cards in your hand come from?"

Shade asked, lowering the [Night Watch] and pointing to the water.

"After her death, I took her ashes to many places. In the winter of 1849, I traveled to the New World. Outside the town of Umr, a settlement in the southern part of the New World, I fell into an ancient relic. From a bronze I discovered this in the hands of the skeleton. From then on, my talent became stronger and stronger."

Joey Barton said, holding the cards tightly, huddled there and sobbing:

"As expected, it still doesn't work. Even though I've made a big mistake and gotten to this point, I still can't see her."

Seeing that the battle was over, Sister Devlin and Priest Augustus beside the bonfire also stood up and came to the edge of the beach. Together with Iluna, they looked at Shade and Joey Barton from a distance.

The dark moon shines quietly here, and the soul that originally stopped quietly walks towards the end of the water again. Everything is silent, yet so solemn and solemn, everything is very sacred.

Among the souls that were gradually moving away, only Mr. Shade and Mr. Barton stood still, and their figures became somewhat blurred by the receding white shadows.

Everything is over. Xia De doesn't mind talking to the other party for a few more words and letting the other party follow him back to the shore:

"You really want to take her back?"

"Yes, even if I have to sacrifice everything. My rebellious life does not have much meaning. She is my only glory and my only happiness."

He stumbled up, but not trying to struggle, but turned around and looked into the depths of the water:

"That's fine. I've made a big mistake. It's better to leave here. Leave and go find her. It's time to end. I'm a child now. The next step is to move from new life to death."

He staggered forward following the white shadows, but only took two steps before falling onto the water again.

The deformed man did not struggle anymore, but curled up into a ball, held his head and howled in pain. Shade had seen many people cry, but he had never seen anyone cry so miserably.

"Fort Midhill is really full of tragic stories."

"ah!"

Joey Barton, who was howling and crying, suddenly screamed again. His body was gradually covered with some gray lines of decay. These lines seemed to have climbed up from under the water. The strong curse power even made Shade feel frightened. Even he could not bear this curse:

"Where did the curse come from?"

Below the feet is the water surface that sparkles with silver light. There is no curse under the water surface.

[Outlander, you gained part of the information from death. 】

[The chosen ones of death, in death, lose to mortals who use other powers. You can think of this as the curse of the ancient god of death, or the curse of death itself. He was spurned, completely disqualified from being chosen, and this curse could not be removed by any means.

"I still don't understand why the God of Death cursed him?"

"She" is chuckling:

[He shouldn't be here, losing to you. 】

Shade turned around suddenly. Just now he clearly felt the wind blowing in his ears when he was talking, but there was nothing behind him:

"Is this so? This can be regarded as the price he pays for everything he has done."

Shade thought slowly in his mind and did not look at Mr. Barton who was huddled on the water.

He held his sword and looked up at the dark moon shining from his dream. The moonlight was so pure and charming, and he enjoyed this moment very much.

【somebody is coming. 】

"What?"

Enduring the pain in his soul and crying, Mr. Barton held on to the water and managed to hold himself up. He wanted to leave with the souls, but when he looked up, he saw a pair of translucent boots stopping in front of him.

They were a pair of brown women's short cloth boots with black decorative laces. Continuing to look up, the shoes are connected to the translucent legs, then a black floral skirt, then a women's white shirt, then a platycodon flower pinned to the chest, then a neck that can hold a photo pendant, and then .

Mr. Button knelt on the water, looking at the face with tearful eyes; Shade put one hand in his pocket, sighing and looking at the two people in front of him; the three people in front of the shoal looked at the people on the water with different expressions. silhouette.

Everything is so quiet, and the dark moon shines on everything. Although it is not bright enough or warm enough, it is very gentle.

On the dark waters, there are still stars like stars. This light illuminates the way out, guiding the souls to pass them by and toward the end of everything.

Although it is death here, Shade likes the environment here very much. It is really beautiful here.
