Chapter 980: A group of cats in the middle of the night
The sound of cats meowing spreads far on the streets at night, but apparently the most indispensable thing in the city is cat meows.
There were only two people who were attracted by the cat's meow. One of them was of course Shade. He looked at his cat. He was quite sure that little Mia looked directly at him. But considering that this cat had also been seen with him before,
Evil God, this cat has even absorbed a ray of divinity. It doesn't seem to be a big surprise to see him now.
Lesia, who also heard Mia's cry, subconsciously looked in the direction Mia was looking at, and then was surprised to notice Shade standing there. The Shade just now did not disappear in her eyes, but she subconsciously ignored him.
position. Only when I really noticed it now did I feel that the neglect just now was so strange.
"Shadow, now"
The blonde girl quickly walked towards Shade with the cat in her arms.
"Take a breath first, don't be so anxious. Don't get close to me now, hold Mia tightly, and don't let her touch me."
Shade continued to walk forward and recognized from his eyes that the person in front of him should be Lesia:
"[Collection of Dice Stories], I know."
"Iluna Bayas"
"The friends of the church I once spoke of."
He responded one after another in Lesia's surprised eyes, and then asked:
"Lecia, I need to know what's happening now."
"no problem."
Lecia held on to the lamppost nearby, but let go after a few seconds.
"Meow~"
Mia shouted softly, looking up at Shade who was walking away. Shade immediately asked:
"Iluna and others, do you know that you appear next to me?"
Dorothy, who had just opened her eyes, was startled, and immediately shook her head as she followed:
"We only know that you have slowed down. We don't know what you are looking at."
"Then keep moving forward."
Shade said, and then said with some worry:
"I know the rules myself, and now I know that you have not appeared in the story for the time being, so you and Lesia should not exchange easily. Such frequent exchanges will greatly damage your spirits."
"But this is angel level"
Shade saw the worry on Dorothy's face, and he explained quickly:
"Is this the first time I have come into contact with an angel-level relic? Don't worry about me. The current situation is that only a target that directly affects me, or poses a direct threat to life, can appear in the narrative of the story, so
Just hold Mia and continue talking to me. What's going on inside the relic now? Have the three storytellers found Thief Jack?"
"Two of Iluna Beas's opponents have been found."
Dorothy directly made it clear where [Jack Thief] was. The two of them walked past the edge of two street lights and walked under the next gas street light. The patrolling policemen came from a distance, and Dorothy held up her sword.
Hidden under Shade's loose coat, the tall policeman in the team just glanced at her, thinking she was a girl who came home late at night and walked alone.
"Miss Bayas is in trouble. It seems she doesn't want to expose your identity as a ring magician. Lecia cannot communicate directly with Miss Bayas. There are many church magicians over there. I need to arrange the church in Silver.
Did you attract the ring warlock team on the Cross Avenue? Let them enter the story and capture Chogori Dius and Lydia Pengelo. Since Mia can let me see you, I should also let the church
The high-level warlocks saw those two sneaking guys."
"No, for rules and story-based relics, never try to cheat, just use the rules reasonably. Moreover, we cannot easily introduce other variables into the story."
Shade looked at the front of the street and said softly:
"Introducing additional variables, each of us has to pass the additional judgment of the dice. Iluna, I mean Miss Bayas, if she can't reveal my identity, I will be the one who suffers every time she makes a judgment."
“What needs to be done now?”
Dorothy asked, hugging little Mia tightly. The cat also rarely remained calm. Although Miss Writer has not experienced similar things, she has a very broad mind:
"I'm not a character in the story yet, so how about I just go ahead and kill Djogori Dius and Lydia Pengelo? They only have one ring, and I have five rings."
"We can't let you take risks. You are a normal person. They are story characters affected by the rules of relics. Who knows what they will do? I would rather not catch [Jack Thief] than let you suffer any harm."
Shade emphasized. Dorothy raised the corners of her mouth and was about to say something when she suddenly saw Shade's face change:
"I received the next order. Miss Bayas asked me to return home directly? It's strange. Even if she didn't know what she wanted me to do, she shouldn't have let me leave Silver Cross Avenue."
"Let Lesia answer you."
"etc"
Without waiting for Shade to stop, Dorothy hugged the cat and leaned against the lamppost again, and immediately stood up again. The short-term soul exchange made her face look ugly, but the blonde girl did not complain at all.
The princess opened her eyes and told the current situation:
"Jack the Thief is moving, moving in the direction of St. Teresa Square. The church's judgment was wrong, and its target was not Yodel Palace at all. The high-level warlocks and cultists of the Truth Society passed a judgment of up to 1,200 points and learned that
The destination is St. Teresa Square, and let Chogori Dius and Lydia Penglo successfully follow behind [Jack the Thief]. Miss Bayas has no choice but to issue an order for you to return.
Home."
While she was speaking, Shade clearly sensed the two people in "Stealth" passing by them in a hurry, but he still could not sense any trace of "Jack Thief".
"Yes, Thief Jack does not exist if he does not steal. Although he has the power of [Dice Story Collection], the judgment required for arrest at this time must be extremely harsh. Iluna's opponent should be thinking
Wait until the theft occurs before arresting him."
Shade's footsteps did not change. After all, he had just been heading home:
"Place Saint Teresa? I wonder which of my neighbors would be so unlucky."
Hearing Shade's words, the blonde girl glanced at him, but did not express her inner suspicion:
"In addition, Miss Bayas's opponents are high-level warlocks from the [Truth Society] and cultists who believe in evil gods."
She turned around the corner with Shade and left the Silver Cross Avenue. The lights suddenly dimmed, and they were still about seven minutes away from entering Saint Teresa Square.
"But who would that thief be targeting?"
Lesia asked again, and Shade shook his head:
"Including tenants and homeowners like me who own the entire house, there will be no less than 100 families living in Saint Teresa Square. Anyone may be his target, and our only advantage now is that we
As a character in the story, I can learn things from the secret keeper directly through you that I should not know because of my identity."
"Shad, this situation is very unfavorable to you. Maybe I can do something for you."
Lesia whispered from the side, while the cat stared at the surrounding darkness with wide eyes, its piercing amber eyes seeming to have noticed something.
"My knight, I must do something for you at this time."
"Lecia, you have done enough for me. Now come with me, and then return to Saint Teresa Square with me. We have to confirm which unlucky family was robbed before we can take action. Now
The two people walking in front of us will enter the Saint Teresa Square area in a few minutes. Although Miss Bayas cannot control me to use the power of the Ring Warlock, we actually have other methods. Once we have to enter the battle
scene, I need your help."
"Okay, Shade."
Lesia was about to nod, but found that Shade stopped on his own initiative. She looked around in surprise, and suddenly found that all the lights around her had been extinguished at some point. The floating dark clouds blocked the stars and the moon, covering large areas.
Darkness enveloped the place, and even the light from the surrounding building windows disappeared.
The surroundings were extremely quiet, and this silence even brought some inexplicable fear. Lecia subconsciously hugged little Mia tightly, and then moved closer to Shade:
"I sensed the whisper element? The relic? But how?"
After she finished speaking, she noticed that her voice was so hoarse. The blonde girl was surprised at the body's instinctive reaction, and then she finally saw pairs of green eyes appearing densely from the surrounding darkness.
With those gazes, the darkness was slightly illuminated, and Lecia and Shade saw densely packed wild cats surrounding them. They were like swarms of locusts, or dense white cats in a decaying corpse.
maggot.
The whispering element suppressed all the light and sound around them, and the group of wild cats stared at them, and they all stood up from the crouching position together:
"Meow~"
"Meow~"
"Meow~"
A series of shrill meows swept over like waves, making Lesia's hair stand on end in the dark night. She had never known that cat meows were so terrifying.
The shrill cry was like the last cry of a dying person in the dark night, or like the low roar of an unspeakable thing hidden in the darkness in a horror story. Thousands of wild cats gathered towards the two people in the darkness, with cat eyes.
The light became more and more terrifying.
Lecia subconsciously wanted to summon the life ring, but was shocked to find that the thick air seemed to be suppressing her own power.
In a trance, a group of cats were surrounding her. They were black, white, orange, and brown. Cats of various colors had similar weird temperaments. When the wild cats came screaming and approached, Lecia felt that she might never like them again.
Cat.
Just when she was about to unleash her magical power desperately, her cold body felt warmth, which was the temperature of the cat in her arms. In an instant, it seemed as if she had gone from cold winter to spring, and little Mia's body temperature was so warm at this moment.
People feel at ease, and Her Royal Highness thinks she will still like cats.
"Relics related to cats."
Shade's voice clearly reached Dorothy's ears. Only then did Lesia come back to her senses. She quickly took a step forward and pressed against Shade's back at a distance that did not touch him.
Above. Shade's body is glowing in the dark. Lesia knows that this is one of Shade's unique abilities. She has seen it several times in the dark.
At this time, the stable silvery white moonlight was so joyful that Lesiya even felt that she was blushing for some reason:
"What should we do now?"
"My luck is not bad enough to encounter dangerous relics while walking at night. It seems that the story has changed. But this time I am lucky. Although I am on the verge of losing control, the whispering element is not very strong. This kind of relic is probably
Clerk-level Lesia, you probably need to take action. Take [Night Watcher] and try it."
Lesia is not a character in the story. If Her Royal Highness were to expel the relic, the story might develop into "encountering a relic on the road but being dispelled by a powerful ring warlock".
But before Shade could finish speaking, little Mia, who was held in Lesia's arms, stretched out her little head from the blonde girl's arms quite unhappily and looked at the surrounding cats.
It has never been afraid of its own kind, and has always hated any other cats approaching Shade. Its amber eyes stared at the surrounding cats, and was about to make a cry in response to the meows one after another, when the moonlight and starlight suddenly appeared.
As the light falls from high in the sky, the gas lamps and window lights around me return one after another.
The whispering elements gradually subsided, and those eyes emitted a strange light, gradually moving toward the group of cats surrounding two people and one cat. When the small Mia saw them, she stopped, and then lowered her head slightly, receding like a tide.
It fell into the shadows and disappeared.
In the middle of speaking, Xia De was stunned and looked around in surprise:
"Huh? Where are the relics? Why did they disappear before we even took action?"
