The sword of the witcher hidden in the Sikal Mountain originally belonged to the previous owner of the [Demon Hunting Seal] in Shad's hands, that is, the ophthalmologist's ancestor in the long past.
As for why the high-level warlock did not put the two relics together, this was not clearly written on the parchment Shade got from the ophthalmologist Mr. Alfred. The parchment only recorded the
The location of the sword, as well as the means of concealment and defense to prevent it from being taken by others.
Although that was eight hundred years ago, it was arranged by a high-level warlock after all, so Shade believed that the possibility of that sword being taken away was very low. But the changes in the sea, even the Sikal Mountain itself, are still there.
A lot has changed in eight hundred years.
Therefore, even with the location determined by dusk sunlight and the detailed map of Sikal Mountain, Shade still could not guarantee that he would be able to find it.
We set off from Hongshui Camp at almost five o'clock in the afternoon, followed the windy trail all the way down the mountain, and then got into the mountain forest. It took a few minutes to deal with the evil spirits that appeared out of nowhere, and then unfortunately, we encountered another
A blind black bear looking for food in the mountains.
Shade didn't intend to kill it, but it attacked the strangers very brutally, and then its head was cut off by the moonlight.
However, Shade did not waste the body of the bear that was raising autumn fat. Instead, he turned its body into a toy and carried it with him, thinking that he could sell it to local businessmen or take it to a restaurant in Tobesk.
.
The hazy mist appeared out of nowhere at dusk. Although it was not as good as the avalanche-like white mist that Shade encountered in the mountains last time, it still brought the evil spirits floating out of the narrow room.
This made Shade's sword-hunting plan more difficult, but fortunately before the sun set, he successfully found the stream described by the ring warlock eight hundred years ago, and with the cooperation of the compass, continued to the east.
direction.
Although he didn't find the "huge cedar" mentioned on the parchment - it had been turned into a hunter's cabin, he then found the "blackwood forest" mentioned on the parchment under the stars... the so-called "
"Blackwood" is not a certain species of tree, but a tree that turns black due to geological conditions and soil environment.
Shade speculated that this was a special tree growth environment caused by the influence of volcanoes and narrow spaces. As long as the problem of narrow spaces is not resolved, this "blackwood forest" will always exist.
Wandering around in the mountains, the sun completely disappeared in the sky without realizing it. But the arrival of night did not make Shade panic and frightened. On the contrary, he walked in the mountains and forests, bathed in the moonlight in the sky,
It made him feel that his condition was getting better and better, and even the feeling at this moment was better than lying on the bed with an interesting storybook and a cat in his arms after taking a hot bath.
【Weird metaphor.】
The road in the forest was not easy to walk, but when Shade reached out his hand to push aside the grass again, his eyes suddenly opened up. This was a cliff standing on the mountainside. There was no grass on the cliff, but it was completely illuminated by the starry sky and moonlight.
He found the right place, this cliff.
"The moon"
When he came to the cliff on the mountainside, Xia De looked up at the bright stars above his head and the three moons. Looking up at the moon from the cliff in the mountain, the sea of stars was so close to his head. This picture-like scene was best seen in the city.
Not available.
Having found the destination, Shade felt a little more relaxed. He looked up at the moon and remembered what Luvia once said. The ancient stargazers eventually fell into madness because of their excessive worship and fascination with the moon.
The body has been transformed into a monster with piles of blood and flesh that can only crazily worship the moon.
"But the moon is so sacred, how can it make people crazy?"
Squinting at the moon in the starry sky, Shade even felt that the moon was getting closer and closer to him with every breath. In a trance, he seemed to be standing on the ridge of the huge wilderness in his dream again, looking at
There is a huge moon disk above the head.
His energy gradually faded, and the yellow and red moons remained unchanged, but the silver moon seemed to be getting closer and closer to him on the edge of the cliff.
In a daze, Shade stretched out his right hand, wanting to touch the silver moon that was almost close at hand.
But a woman's hand grabbed Shade's arm from behind, preventing him from truly "touching" the sky.
"you"
Shade suddenly woke up from that strange state.
【not me.】
That arm is not transparent. Under the woman's fair right hand is the sleeve of a black silk nun's robe.
"Oh, I just did"
Shade gasped and turned around, seeing Sister Devlin.
Seeing that Shade had returned to normal, the nun retracted her hands, held them together and let them hang naturally in front of her. Under the starry sky, her silver eyepatch with intricate and detailed patterns looked even more magical than before.
Behind Sister Devlin, two teams of "blind nuns" wearing the same attire and eye patches lined up on both sides. Although their heights and hair colors were different, they all maintained the same standing posture.
Even though everyone was wearing blindfolds, Shade still felt as if he was being seen by more than twenty pairs of eyes. He was a little embarrassed, but also very curious:
"Good evening, Sister Devlin, you are going there."
"Go to the lake at the top of Sikal Mountain to hold a ceremony and observe the current situation in the narrow room."
The nun said softly, moving her head slightly from bottom to top, "observing" Shade:
"Mr. Hamilton, do you know what just happened?"
"I looked at the starry sky and was stunned for a while."
He wanted to say "a few minutes", but suddenly realized that it was already after eight o'clock in the evening. He had actually stood on the cliff for more than an hour without noticing at all.
This is almost impossible for Shade, who possesses the [Time and Space] spiritual rune and thaumaturgy-time perception.
"Why didn't you remind me?"
[Why do you need to remind me? This is not too dangerous for you. 】
The wind carried "her" voice to my ears.
"Although you are illuminated by the silver moon, you must be cautious when facing it and don't be fooled by the moon's appearance."
the nun reminded.
"This is really the first time this kind of thing has happened. Yes, something was indeed wrong just now."
Shade patted his head:
"It's hard to imagine what would happen if we really touched the moon. Oh, Sister Devlin, how did you find me?"
This mountainside cliff is located deep in the mountain, and any road up the mountain is very far away from here.
"My eyes 'saw' the strange moonlight here, so I found you."
she said softly.
"I see."
Shade still felt a little dizzy and didn't understand what happened just now, but being interrupted by Sister Devlin from touching the moon was definitely a good thing.
"If you want to get closer to the moon, we can protect you. Do you want to go up the mountain with us? The best place to watch the moon in this area is by the lake on the top of the mountain."
Shade thought for a moment and shook his head:
"Thank you for your kindness, but I have other things to do."
Using the thaumaturgy of [Silent Moonlight] and [Cindia's Silver Moon Gift], while the moon above his head seemed to cast a beam of light to envelope him, he pressed his radiant fingers against his temples:
"I have other things to do in the mountains, so I won't go up the mountains with you this time. Thank you for your kindness, Sister Devlin."
"You are Welcome."
The nun nodded slightly, her voice harmonious with the silent forest at night:
"In addition, you need to be careful when moving in the Sikal Mountains at night. Not only the evil spirits have become more powerful, but also the vampires in the city have often appeared in the mountains recently."
"Vampire?"
Shade thought of Bernhardt's uncle and nephew:
"Aren't the local vampires always very peaceful? Do they want to get involved in the affairs of the chosen ones, or do they also want to contribute to Hazama's problems?"
"No, in fact we don't know what those people are doing. But there is evidence that the vampires who originally lived here have three sage-level relics in their hands. There is reason to believe that they were obtained from other clans.
Got it."
"Oh? Three pieces of sage level?"
Shade was a little surprised. When he first came to this world, he had already caused trouble in Tobesk because of a sage-level [God's Gift Box].
The first one represents the power of the vampire clan. Any vampire who obtains it will unconditionally increase his or her level by 3 levels, but cannot achieve breakthroughs in the middle or high levels, and the holder will be afraid of the sun.
The second item is the race transformation ring. If held by a non-vampire, it will be regarded as a vampire. If held by a vampire, it will greatly enhance the unique magic of all races, such as transforming into a swarm of bats. However, the holder will be afraid of silverware.
The third weapon is a powerful weapon. The holder's magic and thaumaturgy are comprehensively enhanced, and the enhancement related to blood is more obvious. However, the holder will lose his own immortality and quick recovery ability, and when using it, he will feel
He was pierced by thorns.
People’s traditional superstition believes that vampires are afraid of sunlight and silverware, but it’s actually because of the first two relics.”
The nun introduced.
"What are the local vampires going to do? Wait, the vampire ring."
Shade raised his eyebrows:
"Sister, the activation spell of the ring you mentioned is not [the replacement of flesh and blood, the sublimation of flesh and blood soul], right?"
