The two of them did nothing that night. Luvia hugged Shade and gave Shade a perfect sleep.
He closed his eyes at around ten o'clock on Wednesday night, and he woke up at seven o'clock in the morning on Thursday after a dreamless night. Mia didn't even wake him up at six-thirty on time, probably because she also understood that Shade was really exhausted. When Xia De
When De opened his eyes, he even thought that this was the best night for him to rest in this world.
"I didn't even have that dream of looking up at the silver moon."
When he sat up from the bed, he felt refreshed. A night's rest allowed Shade to completely return to his normal state. The girl with purple eyes was no longer on the bed. She had to go to the Prophet Association, so she had left, but the bed was still warm.
It was hot, so I probably didn’t walk long.
Shade, who was in a good mood, hooked his fingers at the closed curtains. With a soft sound, the curtains opened slightly, allowing the late autumn morning light that passed through the hazy mist to shine into the bedroom on the second floor.
"Meow~"
A cat meowing that sounded aggrieved came from the door. Mia, who heard Shade getting up, walked in from the living room with short legs and stood at the door urging Shade to get breakfast.
Shade opened the quilt and was about to get out of bed, but suddenly he smiled and stretched out his finger:
"Sunrays."
A slender beam of positive energy shot out from the finger, leaving a small round spot on the floor in front of Mia. Normal [sunlight rays] can only last for a very short time, using strong energy to fight undead creatures. Xia
This is the spirit that controls itself and outputs light at the lowest power, so that the light can appear for a long time.
"Meow?"
The cat looked at the bright spot in front of him in surprise, and then suddenly stretched out its furry right front paw to pat it. Mia is an orange and white cat. Most of the fur on its back is orange, and most of its four short legs are orange.
White.
It hit the bright spot, and then found that the bright spot appeared further forward, so it stretched out its left front paw to slap it, and saw the bright spot moving forward and shaking again:
"Meow?"
The small orange cat was confused for a moment, then suddenly jumped up and jumped in place and slapped the ground back and forth with its front paws.
This look made Shade laugh.
The new day started with a friendly interaction between Shade and the domestic pet cat Mia. He hoped that he could be in such a good mood today.
Now that the danger at home has been resolved, Mia can stay at home alone. During this period, she often took the cat out, but it did not like the feeling of going out.
After breakfast this morning, Shade did not call Mia when he was preparing to set off. This made Mia, who was standing on the stairs looking at Shade, very happy.
Perhaps for this cat, staying at home every day and waiting for Shade to come back is the simplest happiness.
It is still foggy in Fort Miba today, but perhaps because of the statue of the ancient god, the mountain fog did not invade the basement of the ruined tower. But looking up from the basement through the trap door, the thick fog even made Shade see
There is no early morning sunshine.
"The seal on the mountainside has been reinforced. What happened?"
After leaving the abandoned tower, the heavy fog in the mountains became even more exaggerated. After walking a few steps, Shade even had the illusion that he had entered the space of the ancient gods. This was obviously due to the mist escaping from the narrow space, and there were a large number of people who should be patrolling.
The departing undead. But fortunately, the side effect of Shade's use of the relics to attract the undead has long since disappeared. With "her" prompts and the blessing of the Witch Emperor Violet, he barely avoided the possible battle.
Arrived in the city at nine o'clock in the morning.
The situation in the city is not better than in the mountains. Fort Midhill under the heavy fog is no longer as lively as it used to be. It is obviously a Thursday morning, but there are not many people on the street at all. The people I see occasionally are very...
He hurriedly moved forward holding on to the low wall on the street.
Even on the way to the Church of the Sun, Shade didn't see any carriage. In this weather, even hanging lanterns was useless, the whole city was wrapped in white mist.
Without a carriage, Shade could only walk through the city. The most common thing he saw on the way were the policemen hurriedly running through the streets with kerosene lamps. The sound of police whistles occasionally sounded from distant neighborhoods, and this kind of strange heavy fog
The weather is indeed a good time for people with evil intentions to commit crimes.
Shade wanted to know about the changes in the city today, but for some reason, he didn't even meet a kid selling newspapers along the way. Fortunately, when he passed the intersection of Evergreen Street, he met a kid selling newspapers on the street.
The little flower seller who was too timid to cross the street directly.
The little girl is very short, carrying a basket that has been scrubbed but is still worn out. The shoes on her feet are very big, and her gray skirt and deflated hat are all patched. She is very thin and must have been malnourished all year round, so
Shade was also unable to determine the exact age of the other party.
The little flower seller also noticed Shade coming from the heavy fog. She hesitated for a moment before approaching, but she didn't dare to get close. So Shade stopped and put his hand into his pocket to get money.
But this action made the flower seller hesitate even more.
In the foggy weather, if Shade had taken out a handkerchief that could stun someone, no one could have saved her. The children selling flowers and newspapers on the street had already learned how to do it in their hard life.
protect yourself.
"This is the wallet."
Shade shook the wallet he inherited from Detective Sparrow and motioned to the flower seller to come over:
"I want to ask something. When did this fog come up? Yesterday evening, I remember that the fog seemed to be dissipating."
He flicked the 1 shilling coin in his hand and then caught it. The thin flower seller stared at the flying coins and walked over slowly:
"Sir, the fog came out last night."
Fort Midhill has a very strong accent, and people here are used to stressing the depressor when speaking.
"From the mountains?"
"No, it just appeared from the city, just like the usual autumn fog."
The girl could not describe the situation when the fog appeared very well, but based on what she said, it was inferred that the heavy fog had nothing to do with the narrow seal in the mountain. It was not that there was an error in yesterday's seal.
"Ok, I see."
Shade nodded and tossed the one-shilling coin to the girl who refused to approach him. He wanted to leave, but stopped and asked:
"With such bad weather, you should go home as soon as possible. This kind of weather is not suitable for going out."
"But...but my flowers haven't been sold out yet."
The little girl said timidly.
Of course, Shade knew the reason why she refused to go home. Going home now not only meant no profit, but also meant that the money spent on flowers in advance was given to the florist in vain. The reason why he asked this was to elicit the following words
:
"How much do you spend on these in total? Sell them all to me."
With the physical strength of a little girl who has been malnourished all year round, there are not many flowers in the basket. And the flower girls selling on the street usually do not buy too expensive bouquets, so Shade's expenditure is not
Not big.
"Sir, I."
She didn't know whether it was because she was surprised or because she couldn't give an answer for a while, but she was so hesitant that she couldn't speak.
So Shade took out the change from his wallet and pocket, about 12 shillings, put it in his hand and handed it to the girl selling flowers, and then took out all the flowers in her basket.
The quantity was even less than Shade thought, and he could catch it all with one hand:
"Take the money and go home quickly. Remember not to tell others that you have so much money. I wish you good luck!"
The girl hurriedly wanted to say thank you, but Shade shook his head and turned around, waved with his back to her, and walked into the fog again. After confirming that no one was around, the foreigner took the flowers with his coat
Wrap them up, turn them into toys and stuff them into your pockets, except for a bouquet of red roses that are not brightly colored.
Different from the Church of Nature and the Church of the Dawn in the center of Middleburg, the Church of the Sun is in this parish, in the southwest of the city near the mountains. Shade entered the city after going down the mountain, then circled a small half circle outside the city and came to Mead
Saint Laurent Square in Fort Sill, which is also the core of the old town in the west of the city.
Unlike the Church of the Dawn in Tobesk Parish, which is located in the center of Dawn Square, the Church of the Sun in Miburg Parish is only on one side of St. Laurent Square. But because this is an old city, there is a lot of land that can be developed and utilized, so the Church of the Sun is better than the local church.
The most prosperous natural churches are even larger.
Due to the influence of the magical power radiated by the church, the dense fog near Saint Laurent Square has become lighter. Scattered merchants can be seen hawking in the square, but the number of pedestrians is still not many.
At the Church of the Sun, Shade discussed the topic of special Rhodes cards with the vendors selling sundries before waiting for Iluna. She found a suitable reason to leave the church, so she walked out of the church without any hesitation.
"Is it for me?"
Seeing Shade holding a red rose, Iluna asked with a smile. Shade nodded immediately:
"Yes."
He handed over the red rose, which made Iluna smile even happier.
The two made an appointment to meet today in order to exchange information with each other. They found a teahouse on the street and sat down. Iluna told Shade the results of the [Truth Society] siege and suppression campaign, while Shade told how the witch followed yesterday.
We went to the narrow room.
So far, the three passages between life and death have all been reinforced to a certain extent. Among them, the seal at the foot of the mountain is reinforced by Shade's Tree Kiss Mystery Lock, and a weak bonfire is still lit in front of the Door of Death; the seal on the mountainside is reinforced by the Witch
They and Shade worked together to reinforce the shaking silver threads and the witch's hair to ensure that there would be no problems with the seal; and the seal on the top of the mountain was stabilized by Sister Devlin on the Monday after seeing the red butterfly twins.
This is only preliminary reinforcement, and a large-scale magical ceremony by the church will be needed later. As for the four nails that fix reality and the narrow space, one of them has been killed by Sister Devlin, and has been kidnapped into the narrow space by Joy Barton.
I missed one. The four nails correspond to four strong emotions. The woman in the deserted village should be "fear", and the clown should be "joy".
As for the remaining sorrow and anger, Priest August will try to search with Shade in the afternoon, and the Zhengshen Church has also locked one of them:
"The Narrow Room itself is a level 0 relic, and Joey Barton is the first candidate for the Chosen One, so it is difficult for the church to divine him. But for the nails that are resurrected from the dead, with the cooperation of the Seer Association, since we can
If you find the clown, you can also find the second one."
Iluna sat across from Shade, holding a teacup, and her tone was very confident. In her hand was a small bottle bought from a teahouse. After filling it with water, she inserted the withered rose.
"Have you found the other two people?"
"Only one was found, and its approximate location is north of Fort Midhill. Once more accurate information is determined, action will probably be taken on Friday or Saturday."
Shade took note of this information. He and the priest's search in the afternoon could start from the south of Middleburg:
"The other thing about the chosen one is that there seems to be unplanned changes every time. It's not yet known what means Joey Barton wants to use to retrieve the deceased. But after you are sure that what he wants to do is irreversible, you
Make sure to kill him with your own hands. Joey Barton may not know the Chosen One Ceremony, so your opponent this time may not be as powerful as Darkness."
