Whispering Verse

Shade always paid attention to the time. When he was still 10 seconds away from the 47-second limit of [Bordeaux Candle], he led the two girls to the shadow of the building. He stretched out his hand to extinguish the candle and then immediately lit it again. After confirming that it still did not attract attention, he continued walking towards the wall of the three-story building of the printing factory.

The door was locked from the inside, but they didn't try to enter through the door. After walking half a circle around the small building, Miss Anat kept tossing coins to divine luck, and finally chose a window. After Miss Bayas used a special alchemy item to unlock it, the three of them climbed in one after another.

There are many ways to infiltrate. Killing everyone is an option, but tonight the target of the three of them is the ruins, so for the ring warlocks on the ground, if you can avoid fighting, don't provoke them.

There were no lights on on the entire first floor, and the air was filled with the smell of ink, which fit the atmosphere of a printing factory.

In this silence, Miss Anat took Shade's hand and walked at the front, leading the two of them to the room where the night watcher was on the first floor.

Instead of entering, he carefully blew in some black dust through the crack in the door.

The three of them moved away from the door and held their breath, during which Shade extinguished the candle again and lit it. After a full minute, they dared to breathe, and then left here directly, heading towards the underground warehouse, where the goods of the printing factory were piled up.

The entrance to the underground warehouse is on the side of the stairs on the west side of the first floor. An iron door that looks very solid is blocked there. There were two iron locks hanging on the outside of the iron door, and the door was sealed with iron chains. Even if the people inside the door want to come out, they must cooperate with the people outside the door.

The three of them stood still at the door. Miss Anat tossed the coin a few more times and hesitated before nodding to the other two. This meant that she believed there was a high probability of a ring warlock in the warehouse. Although according to the strength of the [Mercury Blood] organization and the suspicion of the injured Silver Eyed Person, the person guarding the gate of the ruins cannot exceed the sixth level, but after all, Miss Anat, the strongest among the three, only has the third level. .

"Silent Spell."

Miss Anat looked at Miss Bayas, who shook the iron triangle in her hand. With a slight exertion of his fingers, the runes on the metal shimmered in the darkness, and then it seemed as if a gust of wind blew past the three of them, and the sound completely disappeared.

Miss Anat looked at Shade, who made a gesture to express his understanding.

He reached out and snuffed out the flame of the candle, then lit it immediately. When the candle was lit again and the 47-second timer started again, Miss Anat reached out and pushed open the door in front of her. The spell took effect and the sound of the door opening completely disappeared. The dazzling light of the gas lamp inside the door immediately shot out from the crack of the door.

Without any hesitation, Miss Bayas, who was standing in front of the door, rushed in first. To prevent herself from using her power and causing the other two to appear, she let go of Shade's hand.

Her left hand shook the silver metal bell [Judge's Holy Bell] hanging on her waist. Amidst the ringing of the bell that no one could hear, Miss Bayas raised her right hand high:

"Sunshine Gun!"

Golden thunder gathered in the palm of his hand, but strangely there was no thunderclap sound. The golden color lit up everything inside and outside the door, and then the golden thunder shot into the underground warehouse with Miss Bayas's hard blow.

Shade and Miss Anat, who were still invisible, quickly entered the underground warehouse, stood on the downward steps and closed the open door. Silence spells were thrown at their feet to ensure that no sound would reach the outside world.

After crossing the talisman, the two of them heard the whistle and bell ringing, which was a sign that the life ring appeared.

Coming from a dark environment to a warehouse with gas lights on, Shade subconsciously narrowed his eyes. But Miss Anat couldn't control that much. She immediately let go of Shade, rushed down the steps, and went to the underground warehouse to help Miss Bayas.

Inside the warehouse, there are cardboard boxes stacked one after another, some of which can even be stacked directly to the ceiling, forming a maze of cardboard boxes in the huge underground warehouse.

At the end of the descending stairs, Miss Anat and Miss Bayas stood side by side. Life rings appeared behind the two ladies, and in front of them, a bald man with a scar on his right eye looked at them with a gloomy expression, covering his left arm injured by the sun gun.

In this case, there is no need to say nonsense like "Who are you?" The man stretched out his hand, and the life ring belonging to the five-ring warlock rotated rapidly, and the spiritual light stretched into a circular line and flickered in the steam mist.

Shade counted down in his mind, took out the [Ancient Witch's Gold Necklace] from his pocket, temporarily held the candle in his mouth, and hung the necklace around his neck with both hands.

At the same time, another golden thunderbolt in Miss Bayas's hand seemed to penetrate the space, and the scar-faced man lowered his waist slightly, and then disappeared into the air.

The shining golden thunder struck the carton, penetrating through the carton and leaving scorched black marks on the wall. The pages scattered by the thunder flew into the air. Miss Anat tossed a coin again, with a firm look in her purple eyes:

"left."

Miss Bayas shook the bell gently with her left hand——

Ding dong~

He stepped hard on the ground with his left foot, and a shock wave composed of golden light spread from his feet along the ground to the left. More cardboard boxes collapsed in pieces, but at the same time the figure of the man also appeared:

"They are all low-level warlocks, how dare you..."

She punched Miss Anat in the air with her right hand. After a muffled sound, the female fortune teller spat out a mouthful of blood, took a step back and fell on the steps, motionless. Then he wanted to punch Miss Bayas from afar, but the appearance of the enemy also meant that Miss Bayas got the opportunity to look at her:

"balance!"

Yellow light spread from the eyes to the surroundings, and as the bell rang, another golden thunder flew out.

The scar-faced man wanted to disappear into the air like he did before, but when he bent down, his legs just disappeared:

"What? What kind of power is this?"

He lay on his side to avoid the sunlight gun, but then a silver light actually lit up from the side. Unable to dodge, he could only raise his arms to resist, and then he saw the gorgeous dreamlike silver brilliance.

Just a little distracted, he immediately let the mercury shine on his arm, trying to block Yin Yue's slash, but the moonlight was not affected at all, and cut his right arm hard like a carrot. break.

The cut surface of the broken arm was abnormally smooth, and blood began to pour out only after the broken arm fell to the ground.

"ah!"

The scar-faced man wailed and jumped up. Shade, whose body was revealed due to the use of thaumaturgy, immediately retreated. The candle flame came on and he disappeared again.

The man was holding the ground with one hand, his whole body trembling, and a terrible black fog sprang out from his pores and wrapped around his body:

"Do you...really know who you're dealing with?"

His entire body melted into the mist, and then a huge, howling and ghastly face swept upwards in the terrifying black mist. There seemed to be countless ferocious faces roaring in the black mist, and in that huge grimace, one could almost see hundreds of souls wailing.

The cold wind shuttled through the closed basement, and amid the strange whispers, the light in the room became weaker and weaker. Shade felt that his physical strength was rapidly draining away, and the black mist was absorbing life.

"This is a necromantic thaumaturgy [Ghost Mist Incarnation]. I know who he is! Ghost Mount, a five-ring warlock with mercury blood, has a bounty of up to 300 pounds. Be careful, don't be touched by those mist arrive."

Miss Bayas shouted loudly, throwing the golden thunder in her hand at the fog again, but only part of the black fog evaporated. The girl with long brown hair gritted her teeth:

"Damn it, we have to attack that fog at the same time. Point-to-point attacks are useless."

"It doesn't matter, he doesn't have the power of a five-ring warlock now, look at me!"

Miss Anat, who was lying on the steps, took off the butterfly-shaped hair accessory from her hair with difficulty, and threw it into the sky. Transparent blue butterflies flew out of the hair accessory in a steady stream, and joined the group of people wrapped in grimaces. The black mist is entangled.

The black mist was actually being swallowed by the blue butterfly, but Ghostface didn't care at all. He roared, dragging the black smoke in the direction of the disappearing Shade. He seemed to be able to tell that among all the people here, the young man was the weakest.

"He asked for it! Good opportunity, Detective!"

"Silver Moon!"

The ultimate silver light rushed out of the fingertips, sweeping the room like the exploding sun. In that light, the black mist melted like ice cubes touching the sun. The harsh roar almost broke Shade's eardrums, but the grimace still pounced on him with all its strength.

Subconsciously, he wanted to use illusions to hide, but then he saw Miss Bayas rushing over with her eyes closed.

He raised his right fist high. Although the fiery golden light on his fist was completely suppressed by the brilliance of the silver moon, Shade had no doubt about the power of this punch:

"Sun Fist!"

Miss Bayas's fist punched through the ghost face in front of Shade. At the same time, the group of blue butterflies thrown by Miss Anat also followed the hole made by the fist and got into the ghost face.

The cold wind gushes out from the big hole in Ghost Face, and the sound of crying can even spread throughout the entire neighborhood if it is not eliminated by the spell.

In front of the ghost face, Shade clenched the luxurious necklace around his neck with his left hand, feeling the rising power. The light on his fingertips quickly weakened, but the entire palm of his hand was glowing.

He waved forward the bright light:

"Silver Moon Slash!"

As if all the light was compressed in the moonlight, the arc-shaped light blade left a radiant afterimage in the space, splitting open the face entangled in the butterfly group, and silently moved on the opposite wall, Leaves a perfect curved mark.

The black fog dissipated, the dark wind and the chilling whispers disappeared, and the light of the gas lamp enveloped the place again.

The blue butterflies flew back to the injured Miss Anat's hands and turned into the butterfly-shaped hair ornament. The scarred man's chopped body appeared in the dissipating grimace and fell at Shade's feet.

Shade breathed heavily and counted the time. From the time he opened the door to the end of the battle, it was only half a minute.
