After talking about other things, we officially started talking about the topic of the chosen ones. This is also the main purpose of Miss Aurora coming to this place:
"No targets have been locked so far. Except for the fragments of poems that Carina obtained from Tobesk, the council currently only knows that the ritual of death of the chosen ones is closely related to the narrow room and the three passages. So finding or even
Mastering a channel is also very useful for us to find the chosen one."
"I heard from Miss Carina that the Society of Truth has already entered Fort Midhill? Will it attract a large number of foreign ring magicians like Coldwater Port this time?"
Shade asked Miss Aurora, who shook her head:
"This time the church blocked the news very well, and with the incident in the Death Narrows as a cover, there are currently very few organizations that know the news that the third chosen one will appear in this city. However, we have relaxed our vigilance because of this. The Truth Society's
I don’t know what those crazy people will do.”
The characteristic of the "Truth Society" is to conduct illegal and taboo knowledge research, pursue "truth" and obtain more powerful knowledge. Similar lunatics exist in every era, so the "Truth Society" has actually inherited the knowledge of at least two eras.
Organization. Two months ago, Shade and Priest August met the guy who was trying to fuse the relics with his body in the Tobesk Cemetery. He was a member of the Truth Society, and people from the Truth Society also appeared in the dark realm.
But before they could enter the core area of Millwood Forest, they were defeated because they mistakenly provoked the Prophet Association.
"Then the only enemy this time is the Truth Society? Does the opponent have thirteen-ring warlocks? How many are there?"
"This is not important."
Grandma Cassandra shook her head:
"The three major thaumaturgy academies also sent people to the area for the reason of 'helping the church hold the ritual of sealing the narrow room.' Although the Truth Society has more lunatics, its power is not as powerful as the Blood Spirit School you have encountered.
The contemporary leaders of the Truth Society are twelve-ring sorcerers, and they are notorious only because they are good at harnessing the power of relics."
"Does the Academy now know who the Chosen One is?"
"You probably don't know yet, at least that's what the Speaker thinks."
Miss Aurora said, looking at the bonfire outside the window again, and suddenly invited:
"Xia De, the atmosphere is really good tonight... let's go dancing together later?"
"Huh? What? Oh, okay."
Shade wasn't sure how the topic jumped to this point.
"In addition, the vampires in this city seem to be planning something."
Shade took out the blood brew he just bought, but the witches didn't care about it as much as Shade. Granny Cassandra has lived in this city all year round, and this is not the first day that vampires have been selling banned blood brew.
So this matter is not important.
The witches still wanted to discuss business, so Shade didn't stay with them for too long. After leaving the lounge, he calculated that it was almost time for the auction. Because he was thinking about the special rules card, Shade thought
Let's go and join in the fun.
But when I looked towards the courtyard from the corridor, intending to take a breath of fresh air, and waiting for the auction to begin, I actually saw Iluna's figure.
Although she only arrived this afternoon, she was not tired from the steam airship trip, so it was indeed possible that she would appear at this night banquet. But she did not stop, but instead moved toward the outer edge of the bonfire, toward the forest behind the college.
Gone.
"What is Iluna going to do?"
After confirming that he had read correctly, Shade quickly left the castle and returned to the courtyard, then followed him.
No matter what Iluna wants to do, Shade must go and see it.
The castle of Fort Midhill Mechanical College was originally the base camp of the Sikal Mountain garrison hundreds of years ago. Therefore, the castle is close to the mountain forest, and the forest behind the castle is the private property of the college. Young students also like the night
I have a private meeting here sometimes.
When Shade came to the edge of the forest that was not illuminated by the firelight of the courtyard bonfire, Iluna's figure had already disappeared, but he only walked a few hundred steps into the forest when he saw a faint light ahead. Again
Moving forward, he saw two people confronting each other in the dark forest.
One is Iluna, and the other is a brown-skinned man wearing round glasses that I have never seen before, and there is a snake-like tattoo on the back of his hand. The two sides are obviously hostile, and it looks like they will be killed in the next second.
Take action.
He took out the mask and put it on his face. When the four-ring and five-ring life rings appeared behind the two sides, Shade took out the prepared casting materials.
"Sunshine Gun!"
Golden thunder appeared in Iluna's hand, and on the life ring behind the five-ring warlock, the enlightenment rune [Hound] suddenly lit up. As the light flashed, a ferocious hound with three heads actually appeared.
It really jumped out of his life.
The hound was covered in black smoke and covered with bone spurs and abscesses.
"Similar to Dorothy and Lesia, this is a ring magician who is good at stories and the power of fairy tales!"
Shade immediately made a judgment.
The huge hound blocked the sunlight gun thrown by Iluna in the air, and was directly hit hard by the sunlight gun. Half of its body was evaporated. The man with the fifth ring was quite surprised. He didn't expect that the young girl opposite him was so powerful.
He was one level lower, but he was able to carry out such a powerful attack:
"What grudge do you have against me?"
As he spoke, he called out a hound again, and at the same time reached into his pocket, obviously looking for something.
"You are a member of the Truth Society, that's enough."
Iluna said in a deep voice, and then Shade remembered that Iluna once said that she not only had enmity with [Mercury Blood], but also had enmity with [The Society of Truth].
"However, I haven't met the Truth Society in Fort Midhill for so long, but Iluna actually met me on the first day she arrived. Is this the fate of the chosen ones?"
The sound of thunderbolts appeared in Iluna's hands again, and the golden spear took shape in her hands and was held by her. This was the first time that Shade saw that the "Sunshine Spear" was not thrown immediately after it was formed, and therefore guessed [
Can the Sunshine Gun be regarded as a spiritual weapon similar to the Moonlight Great Sword and the Deathbringer's Sickle?
The three-headed dog was summoned again, and its three mouths opened at the same time, spitting poisonous mist, fire and cold air at Iluna respectively. However, the speed at which they accumulated strength and sprayed out was too slow, and Iluna jumped high to avoid it.
He reached a fan-shaped attack range, and then threw a sunlight gun in the air at the summoner of the three-headed dog.
In order not to attract too much attention, she obviously did not use her full strength. But even so, once this blow hits, the opponent will definitely be dead without unique defense skills.
But the man's hand that was placed in his pocket stretched out to the sky at this time. In his hand was a hand-held makeup mirror. From the appearance, it was very similar to the [Corpse Mirror] that Sha De once owned, but the frame
Smaller and the handle is shorter.
The mirror hit Iluna's Sunshine Gun like a racket. The two collided head-on, and then the Golden Thunder Gun was sucked directly into the mirror.
Iluna, who jumped up high, did not panic at all. After landing steadily, she rolled to avoid the claws of the three-headed dog, and then collided with the dog's claws again with her fist that lit up with a hot golden light.
:
"Sun Fist!"
The man behind the three-headed dog twirled his bronze ring, held a mirror in one hand, and began to recite the incantation. The enlightenment rune [Ghoul] on the life ring behind his back began to flash, and he suddenly turned around after reciting the incantation halfway.
.
Clang!
The relic mirror in his hand held Shade's moonlight sword, and the moonlight on the two-handed sword also illuminated the mask on Shade's face:
"Who are you? I'm just here to participate in the auction. What do you guys want to do? This is too much!"
The man complained loudly, and suddenly raised his hand to block the sword in Shade's hand. While Shade silently slashed at him again, he suddenly opened his right eye.
Originally, the color of both eyes were the same brown, but at this time, the blue halo spread rapidly in the left eye. Shade, who was wielding the moonlight sword, felt that the sword in his hand suddenly seemed to be frozen in space.
, actually became motionless, and even the additional effect of [Sword of Chaotic Time] was erased.
"Magic Eye!"
He was wary, so he backed away suddenly, but the [Moonlight Sword] that was solidified in the space after he let go of his hand still did not disappear. This did not comply with the rules of this thaumaturgy.
The five-ring warlock still held the makeup mirror that absorbed the sunlight gun in his right hand. Then he reached out with his free left hand and "plucked" the moonlight sword from the space and held it in his own hand. Shade was surprised and wanted to call it out again.
A sword, but found that the thaumaturgy of the [Moonlight Great Sword] didn’t work:
"What kind of magic eye is this?"
The mirror was swung again like a racket, and as the golden light lit up on the surface, the absorbed sunlight gun was projected out of the mirror.
"Raglai's Leap!"
Shade's figure disappeared into the darkness of the dense forest. At the same time, Iluna had killed the three-headed dog again. Of course she saw Shade who was wearing a mask just now and the ring warlock of the [Truth Society].
Fighting, so there was no close attack, but both hands condensed into a golden spear at the same time:
"Sunshine Gun!"
Two sunlight guns were projected at the same time. The five-ring warlock held a mirror in one hand and a sword in the other. The mirror held high absorbed one of the guns, while the sword in his right hand shattered the other gun.
"You got Fooled!"
A black vortex suddenly appeared in front of him, and Iluna stretched out her hand and directly grabbed the mirror.
At the same time, the bright cross moonlight flew out from behind the man, and Shade in the dense forest kicked out the strongest form of [Moonlight Slash] frozen in the air.
The big sword in his right hand slashed at Iluna's hand, forcing Iluna who had not yet grasped the mirror to retract her hand. When Shade's moonlight slash was about to hit his back, the [Eclipse] on the life ring
A terrifying ghoul emerged from the spirit rune. While the ghoul was neatly divided into four, the man leaned on the ground to avoid the moonlight slash:
"Let me think about it, are you a survivor of the Singhdi Village Massacre? Or are you a collateral relative of the family that was turned into half human and half dog during the Keystone Barking Incident?"
No one answered him. Iluna, who was not far away from the man, saw the cross moonlight flying towards her and hurriedly dodged to one side. The cross moonlight hit the big tree behind her and stopped.
"Where's the rest of the church?"
Shade asked, holding his voice.
"I am attending this banquet in a private capacity. I wonder if other ring magicians from the church are also here. What is the weakness of the Moonlight Great Sword?"
Shade and Iluna surrounded each other one after another, and the man also stood up and looked at the two with ugly expressions.
Shade answered confidently:
"There are no shortcomings except that it can't be taken away from my hand. But don't worry, although his magic eye has robbed me of my thaumaturgic effect, the power of the sword in his hand has also become smaller."
It's a pity that the newly acquired [Night Watch Long Sword] was not brought with him because it was inconvenient, otherwise Shade would have dared to continue fighting at close quarters.
"but."
Xia De raised his head over the branches and looked at the three moons in the sky, and a bold idea came to his mind:
"May the moon be with me."
PS: Shade can't hold a sword and wear formal clothes to attend the banquet, that's no problem.
