Whispering Verse

Of course, before officially setting off to go deep into the island, Shade placed the two newly obtained [Eternal Youth Leaves] in front of his eyes. The thaumaturgy given by the leaves can be obtained directly without any learning rituals. Shade also obtained the thaumaturgy "Light of Confinement" and the spell "Flying Flower Curse" belonging to [Silver Moon].

When Shade took the leaves away from his eyes, Iluna asked Shade to try his new power so that he could use it for a while.

The casting of "Light of Confinement" does not require casting materials. Iluna watched Shade's right hand draw a circle in the air. After the silver trace of light remained in the air, his right hand passed through the circle of light and struck the horse behind Iluna from the air:

"Light of confinement!"

The halo of light was strung on Shade's arm. As the arm shot out, it turned into five silver haloes and flew towards the skeleton horse, encircling its head, neck, body and tail respectively.

"The effect is very good. My mount can no longer move."

Iluna said, and then asked Shade to cast a spell on her. This time Shade used the smallest force to cast the spell, but three glowing and rotating circles of light still flew out, strangling Iluna's neck, hands and feet respectively.

"In this state, I cannot move or cast spells, but speaking does not affect it."

Iluna said, then frowned and tried to break away. With a crisp sound, the three apertures shattered like glass, and only the silver light spots left were blown away by the wind:

"The confinement effect is not as good as your [Sin Chain]."

"But the casting speed is faster, the distance is longer, the target is automatically tracked, and the spell can be cast on multiple people."

Shade was quite satisfied with the new thaumaturgy, and thought about trying it on little Mia when he got home, so that he wouldn't be afraid of not being able to catch the cat the next time he washed it.

Then he tried the spell [Flying Flower Curse]. This spell requires the casting material "petals of any kind", which Shade has in his body.

Iluna watched as Shade held the petals in his palm, then put his right hand in front of his mouth and blew a strong breath on the petals.

"oh!"

Iluna sighed in a low voice, watching thousands of pink petals being "blown out" in the dark night, and flying into the thick fog in front of her. They fell in the air at an extremely slow speed, intertwined with snowflakes, and there was some pink miasma in the space filled with petals.

"The flying flower spell blows out a petal and turns it into more petals. If I want, I can make the flying petals stronger and sharper than a flying knife. And if I consume a lot of spirit, these petals can be poisonous, but It's not fatal, it just makes people faint. It's the equivalent of a large-scale 'stun spell'."

Shade also watched the petals fall with Iluna. Compared with the thaumaturgy "Light of Confinement", the effect of the curse "Flying Flower Curse" is indeed not very strong. But Shade has never been a greedy person, and he knows better than Iluna what the "Flying Flower Curse" is.

Manipulating plants is a "natural" force, and "one flower turns into many flowers" is vaguely similar to the time effect of "The Blade of Disrupted Time and Space".

The Ancient God [Father of the Infinite Tree] is the god of time and nature, and the "Flying Flower Curse" is the first power that combines "time" and "nature" that he gave to Shade. Shade was more concerned about its symbolic meaning than the actual use of this spell.

"At least I don't have to bring my own knife when I go out."

Shade waved to Iluna:

"lets go."

The Pantanal Voodoo Society and their collaborators seem to have deployed most of their defense and resistance methods in the area outside the central lake of the Everglades. There is nothing on the island except the thick fog.

This may sound unbelievable, but consider that the island is not safe now, and there are many important ceremonies that will be held here soon. In order to prevent those dangerous relics or summoned objects from harming the ceremony itself, it is indeed very important to damage the environment of the island itself as little as possible.

Of course, this doesn't mean there aren't any dangers in the fog.

Shade and Iluna first carefully walked a few hundred meters along the shore. After finding the abandoned small pier marked on the map held by Iluna, they planned to continue deeper into the island along the path of the pier.

This pier was built by the army that once garrisoned here. Although it has been hundreds of years since the army left the island, the pier is still usable and seems to have been used frequently recently.

Blood stains were sprinkled on the snow on the dilapidated pier at the pier. Shade bent down and wiped it with his fingers, and found that the blood stains were very fresh.

"There should be dangers in the lake. If Desire were not with us, how to cross the lake would be a problem."

Shade straightened up and said to Iluna. He used [Blood Wine Brewing] to turn the blood stains into blood wine and dripped it into his eyes, and then used [Blood Echo] to see the bloody figure of the strong man.

After Shade's description, Iluna recognized that it was the Thirteenth Ring Warlock who created the Church. He led a team from the west of the Pantanal region into the swamp area and seemed to have successfully landed on the island.

This thirteen-ring warlock seemed to have a way to prevent tracking. The bloody figure extended into the fog and disappeared, and the footprints on the snow were also cleaned up.

Shade and Iluna moved forward together, walking along the path toward the lighthouse's light. After a while, a faint black figure appeared in the fog. In the heavy snow in the middle of the night, as the stench became more and more obvious, the monster lurking in the fog finally showed its figure.

It was a humanoid creature crawling on the ground. Its skin had turned a disgusting brown due to high levels of decay, its head was swollen, and its scorched teeth were turned outward.

"Ghouls."

Iluna said softly, but this kind of ghoul is different from normal ghouls. Not only is the individual larger, but there are actually three gray-green mushrooms the size of a fist growing on its body. Those mushrooms squirm spontaneously, and every time they move, they spray a faint green smoke into the air.

"Affected by the power of evil."

Shade nodded and saw that the monster still had clothes on it. Those were the uniform uniforms of the old-style Kasenlik United Kingdom Army. Those ordinary people who had disappeared here had obviously turned into undead.

"It's probably not a summoned one, it's a monster that was already active on the island."

Shade expressed his conclusion and kicked his right foot forward. The curved moonlight flew against the snow and flew towards the ghoul who was hesitating whether to move forward. The latter was frightened by Iluna's undead horse. Attack immediately.

Although the silver moonlight is silent, its holy power is extremely conspicuous to the undead whose only instincts are eating and murdering. It let out a frightened cry like a beast, and after its right foot was cut off by the moonlight, it limped away into the depths of the thick fog.

"It's a pity. The mushroom on it seems to be the extinct 'Ghost Mushroom'. I remember it was very valuable..."

There are many native monsters on this large island, but they will not pose much of an obstacle to Shade and Iluna. It's just that the environment on the island is very different from that old map. After walking along the path for five minutes in the snow, I saw a circular pit as big as a house. The deep pit was man-made. From the outside to the inside, there were stone steps descending step by step. At the bottom was a large circular flat land, but it was also covered with snowflakes at this time.

"The ceremonial site looks like it was dug out decades ago."

Iluna judged that this had nothing to do with their goal tonight. The Pantanal Voodoo Society had obviously done more than one thing in the Everglades over the years.

Continuing forward, there is a dry forest with intermittent barbed wire fences on the edge of the forest. According to the mark on the map, it was left behind by the Kasenlik Army before its retreat. The dry forest in the snow was originally supposed to be a garrison camp, but now no trace of it could be seen, and instead it became a gathering place for ghouls.

As Shade and Iluna moved along the path, pairs of brown and cloudy eyes peered at them in the dead woods, but no one dared to jump out of the woods and attack them.

When they got here, there was still no ring warlock appearing in front of them to block their way.

"Did the Pantanal Voodoo Society and the Society of Truth send all the ring magicians out to intercept them?"

Shade muttered quietly.

Continuing forward, the path in the snow forked. To the left leads to another old dock and old warehouse on this island in the middle of the lake, and to the right leads to an old manor and lighthouse with a history of hundreds of years.

The correct direction of travel was of course to the right, but at this time a series of vague footprints appeared on the snow, all heading to the left. After checking, Shade and Iluna confirmed that these footprints were left almost ten minutes ago. If they had come a little later, the footprints would have disappeared in the snow.

"Who went to the left?"

It was impossible to see very far in this late-night snowy fog, and coupled with the power of the "Pantanar Evil" diffused on the island, even Shade's perception couldn't tell him what was happening in the distance.

Fortunately, he still had Iluna by his side. The church team had already thought about the situation that they would be separated before setting off, so they were prepared in advance to contact each other after they were separated.

In addition to the candle ends mentioned by Iluna, they have other methods. The seventeen-year-old girl bent down and searched for Shade in the snow at the fork in the road for a while, and soon found the small pink conch hidden in the snow.

"Iluna Emilia Bayas."

She said her name to the conch, then put it to her ear to listen, her face gradually becoming serious.

"What's wrong?"

"The situation is a bit complicated. The ceremony locations on the island are not just under the lighthouse. Specifically, the Stonehenge under the lighthouse in the northeast of the island in the center of the lake is for the ceremony of the chosen ones. There are also three other directions that will be held simultaneously. Ritual to free the evils of the Pantanal and other weird things sealed in the Everglades."

Shade frowned slightly:

"Persecuting the church to separate?"

"Yes."

Iluna nodded and said to the conch:

"Beas went to the direction of the lighthouse."

Then he hid the conch in the snow again:

"The church's plan is perfect. For others, the main task this time is not to prevent the ceremony of the chosen one, but to prevent the evil things in Pantanal from lifting the seal. To prevent the ceremony of the chosen one, or to arrest or kill It is my mission to be the chosen one.”

She pointed at herself, then looked at Shade.

For Shade, preventing the Chosen One's ritual is not the first priority either. The task that must be completed is to confirm the identity of the chosen one and witness the chosen ceremony with your own eyes. Stopping the evil in the Pantanal is also something he wants to ensure.
