"Are you curious about the changes in your body? You absorbed my flesh and blood. If there is no change at all, then wouldn't I be a little too weak?"
The head said with a smile:
"Look, I really didn't do any tricks this time, right?"
Shade nodded and took the chain back. However, the chain did not disappear out of thin air, but retracted inward toward Shade's sleeve, but he did not feel anything getting into his sleeve.
"I can feel the flame of desire in your soul, it's very pure."
The man continued to praise in a low voice, and Shade shook his head violently, took a deep breath to adjust his condition, and after confirming that he was fully recovered both physically and mentally, he planned to leave.
The first ray of sunshine shone on Coldwater Harbor dozens of minutes ago, and he was still thinking about the red-haired princess.
Just thinking about Lesia, the distracting thoughts in his heart made him think of more things. This is the sequelae of that piece of flesh and blood. Of course, power has a price. Within a month, Shade will always think about strange things like this.
"I"
"You don't want to thank me, do you?"
The head in the pool continued to laugh.
"Of course not, I just want to ask, what do you want to do?"
Shade stood in front of the exit door and asked backwards.
"I was born from desire. As long as there is desire in this world, I will never disappear. What I want to do is to witness your desires and help you. I just want to see if you can go
To what extent?"
That seductive laugh was no different from when Shade came. It didn't look disappointed at all when it failed to obtain Shade's soul:
"After this separation, we will definitely meet again. I hope you can give me new surprises next time we face each other."
Shade opened his mouth, but in the end he said nothing. He knew that he could not trap this thing, and the failed seal could no longer trap it. The danger level of the opponent would never be lower than the angel level, although there was no
It showed no fighting power in front of him, but even if a thirteen-ring warlock encountered this thing, it was hard to say what the result would be.
You know, Shade, who had a drop of divinity in his soul, was almost completely lost in desire.
"Goodbye then."
He whispered politely, turned around and left, passed through the open iron door, and ran towards the direction where the sea breeze was blowing.
As the footsteps moved away, in the pool, there were dozens and hundreds of times more hands and legs than what Shade had seen just now. They were like spread out peacock feathers, stretching out from under the water one after another and then again.
Retract.
There was a splash of water, but her head did not move. Her chin rested on the ground beside the pool, and she looked towards the direction where Shade left with a smile:
"Do you really think that a mortal body can absorb my flesh and blood as perfectly as you can?"
With a slight hum, she hummed an ancient song and returned to the water:
"It turns out that you have no idea what you are."
The passage behind the iron gate is very similar to the rugged narrow passage of the damp chapel, but it is probably because of the obstruction of the dark room that it does not look like the road from which it came has collapsed.
As Shade moved forward, the humid sea breeze ahead became stronger and stronger, and the sound of rushing water in his ears became clearer and clearer. However, the further forward, the narrower the passage became.
Until Shade could almost see the light in the distance, the narrow passage could only allow him to pass sideways.
He was forced to use his moonlight sword to chop stones to open a path. Under normal circumstances, the journey only took a few minutes, but it took Shade twenty minutes to complete it.
All the way up along the narrow rock gap, it was almost seven o'clock in the morning when Shade's hand, which was covered in dirt, finally came into contact with the not-so-bright sunlight.
Shade estimated that his current location was probably behind the cliff on the side of Aurora Manor.
"It's finally coming out."
When he finally used the sword in his hand to break through the last stone barrier and climbed out of the gap with great effort, he realized that the weak light was due to the current position.
This is a pier that is sunken inward under the sea cliff. It is probably as if a piece of the bottom of the sea cliff has been hollowed out. Sea water continues to flow into the bottom of the cliff and slaps the ground. The ground slopes upward until the rock wall that Shade broke through.
The rotten wooden trestle and the wooden boats with only wreckage on the ground all mean that this place was once used as a dock. Reminiscent of the predecessor of Aurora Manor, it was the stronghold of the Scarlet Secret Cult, and the damp chapel and sealed relics
Darkrooms were also built by fish people.
This is enough to infer that hundreds of years ago, the cultists in the manor used the wine cellar and the small dock at the bottom of the sea cliff to transport some dangerous items and used them as escape passages. However, as the relics were sealed inside the passage, this
A small secluded dock was also abandoned until Shade came here.
"Although the witch only comes to Coldwater Port occasionally and doesn't live in the manor for more than a few days a year, does she really know nothing about what's going on underground in the manor?"
With things in mind, Shade checked the ramp above the pier. It was close to the wall and leaning against a white skeleton. Due to the long-term wind and humidity, the clothes on the corpse had almost completely disappeared, and the bones were
There are remains of flesh and blood attached, but it is completely impossible to judge who it is based on this.
In addition, w.; there are a lot of garbage and fish carcasses washed up by the sea. But there are no signs of recent human activities. It seems that the people of Aurora Manor really don’t know about this.
place.
Going down the ramp, Shade prepared to enter the water directly and then swim back to the cold water port. As Shade got closer to the outside of the sea cliff, the sound of the rough waves he heard became louder, and the sky outside was finally covered by him.
Saw it clearly.
It was obviously a summer morning, but the sky showed a pale yellow color. Along with the surging waves, the raindrops that continued all night were blown by the strong wind in the direction of Coldwater Harbor.
The water surface could not be clearly seen in the darkness under the sea cliff, but when Shade stepped into the water with his boots, he realized that the water was actually blood red.
It wasn't that there were red things floating on the surface of the water, but that the water itself turned red. Shade took the risk of touching the sea water and gently tapped it on the tip of his tongue. He didn't even need a sound in his ear to remind him that there was an element of blasphemy in the water.
.
This kind of water, concentrated by chemical means, can even be used directly as potions or ritual materials.
"It seems that the return ceremony of the sea has begun. Is it true that such a large-scale ceremony will come with free potion materials on time? It was also the case at Lakeview Manor last time."
