Whispering Verse

After the death of "Charming Lady" and "Stalker in the Dark", perhaps because the story only needs to focus on one person, large-scale environmental and psychological descriptions appeared in the narrative of the black-robed keeper.

Yin Luna didn't care about those psychological descriptions that were obviously nonsense. She was very sure that Shade was fully aware of the current situation, and might even have known the characteristics of [Collection of Dice Stories].

This is not only trust in Shade, but also trust in Luvia. On the road of pursuing the Chosen One and the great prophecy of "The Whispering Psalm", Yin Luna Bayas sometimes felt that she, the real Chosen One, was actually the unnecessary one.

All actions are carried out by Shade, and all information is given by Luvia. Sometimes, she doubts her place among the three. But this doubt about herself also just proves her trust in Shade and Luvia.

No matter when, she will not doubt Shade's fighting ability, no matter when, she will not easily question the information given by Luvia.

"Since I am in charge of this incident, I will not let them down. I am not like Shade who can always make surprises, and I am not like Luvia who knows all kinds of information, but at least I can do my best. things and fulfill one’s responsibilities.”

Amid the sound of whistles and bells, the glow of brass rings illuminated the darkness. The life ring transformed into a dark golden scale, and the light shone in all directions. Amid everyone's surprised expressions, the power of the chosen one shines onto the table in the light.

"I can't bring you victory, but I will use my wisdom to at least prevent you from losing this game."

"When entering the combat round, please roll the dice and make a 'boxing' decision."

There was a muffled sound, and Shade's fist was blocked by his raised arm. Then a black-gloved fist also swung at him, and Shade also used his arms to block.

After a brief confrontation, the two men fought only with their fists and arms at close range. Although Shade has not systematically learned boxing, his excellent physical fitness itself is the most powerful weapon, and the guy who is wrapped in black clothes and whose face under the hat is a shadow at any angle has strength and body. The quality is obviously on par with Shade.

[Strength] Obtaining the spiritual runes itself increases strength, and Shade also has a relic [Impure Dragon Blood] on his body. When Dr. Schneider and four others came to the door of the room, they happened to see the two of them waving their fists and hitting each other's arms. As a professional psychiatrist, Bill Schneider received professional fighting training when he was a student. He could see that neither of the two parties knew anything about boxing. They just relied on strength to swing their fists, and no one could stop the other for a while.

[Thief Jack]'s action mode is not biased towards fighting, so after fighting with Shade, he immediately tried to move towards the window.

"Surround them!"

whispered the doctor, rushing into the room with Priest August, "Dorothy" and Luvia.

Priest August moved the slowest, so he blocked the door and window of the room. Doctor Schneider was the fastest and blocked the direction leading to the dining room and the side bed. "Dorothy" walked side by side with Luvia, blocking the way. In the direction leading to the master bedroom and study. The four people formed a triangle, surrounding the two people waving their fists from a distance.

As Shade fought and retreated, he and the thief officially moved to the center of the living room.

Under the light of the gas lamp, the shadows of the four people around him stretched out in long lines, as if they formed a triangular cage.

Of course, because the four people did not directly affect the story, they just stood there, so the people on the second floor of the Prophet's Association who were doing the last part of the story could only see the two puppets shaking their fists at each other, but they had no idea what was going on. There were actually four other bystanders in the scene.

"No, we can't catch him like this!"

Priest August reminded him that although the old priest only had the second ring, he was quite knowledgeable. He said with a serious look:

"[Jack Thief] becomes stronger when he is strong. Shade, this won't work. You can't beat him with boxing. If you keep going like this, sooner or later you will become negligent, but he won't."

"We must think of a way. Since we have driven this thief to this point, we cannot let him escape!"

The doctor then said.

"Shad must not use the power of a ring warlock, otherwise the church will immediately know that he is a ring warlock."

Luvia and "Dorothy" stood together, the blonde girl looked a little nervous:

"You can't use extraordinary power. Maybe ordinary people's methods can also be used. [Jack Thief] is suppressed by [Dice Story Collection]. Maybe we can let Shade come into contact with additional symbols and add extra judgment points for him."

"I can literally hear the dice falling now!"

Shade squeezed out a sound through his teeth. The enemy in front of him was as bad in boxing skills as him, but his strength and speed were extremely amazing. Priest August's worries were actually unnecessary. Even though Jack the Thief became stronger when faced with a strong threat, the relic did not have an "other self". At this time, the gentle female voice in Shade's ear was helping him correct the direction of his punch, trying to make him At least he wasn't left behind.

"Even if you find additional tokens, Thief Jack will become stronger when he gets stronger."

The doctor reminded, but Luvia already had an idea. She is the one who is most familiar with [Dice Stories]:

“Thief Jack becomes stronger when he encounters a strong one, which means that when he encounters an enemy, he must be stronger than the stronger one.

When encountering Thief Jack in the real state, it is stronger than the strongest of the two, so no one can stop him, because the power exerted by the two fighting together is not equal to the sum of the powers. But in [Dice Stories], as long as two people have a cooperative relationship, their points can be added up, and Jack the Thief still has the points of the 'strongest' one. This is also the reason why the other two characters actually found [Jack the Thief] when they cooperated in the investigation at the beginning! "

When she said this, both Shade and Lesia suddenly realized. Although the doctor and the August priest did not know what they were talking about, they also knew that a method had been found.

"That's why the professors of the [Truth Society] will give up the mission directly after a character dies!"

The blonde girl also understood:

"That makes sense."

"So, there is only one way for Shade to win. To help him find someone who can cooperate with him and add up the points."

Priest August guessed, and the blue-eyed psychiatrist suggested:

"Annate, could I take a step to help Shade. Even though I am not included in the story because of this, I can say that I happened to visit him."

"No, only the manipulated characters in the story comply with the rules of assistance and addition. We are just background characters in the story. Even if we help Shade, there will be no effect of the rules of [Dice Stories]. On the contrary, with Shade's current performance Without showing extraordinary strength, who among us would dare to go directly to help?"

Luvia immediately shook her head, and Dr. Schneider glanced at the two people shaking fists at each other and understood her point of view.

"Is it okay to [awaken the undead]? Awaken the corpse and control the undead."

Priest Augustus spoke quickly. Although the people in the group knew more or less that this old man knew the art of necromancy, it was still surprising that the priest said such words so indifferently.

"No, the other two have already quit, and their bodies are now also the background of the story."

This time it was "Dorothy" who gave the answer. Among the people here, she was the only one who had seen the game with her own eyes.

"Don't worry, I feel like I can still hold on for a while. But the whisper element seems to be getting stronger and stronger, and the power of [Dice Stories] is affecting us."

Shade whispered. Although the crackling sound was exaggerated, it was indeed the result of fists shaking each other. Shade never knew he could punch so fast. This was his first attempt to fight with his fists without holding back his hands. This experience was very interesting and useful.

"In other words, only Shade himself can help Shade himself, but this is a paradox. Any power exerted on him will also be possessed by Thief Jack."

Dr. Schneider said, but suddenly frowned:

"It must be part of Shade or belong to Shade in order to comply with the game rules of the angel-level relic [Dice Story Collection]; but it cannot be the power of Shade himself and his items, otherwise the sage-level relic [Jack the Thief] will be When he meets the strong, the strong one belongs to him, but it is not him, and he must be able to cooperate in throwing, which is part of the story.”

"Luvia's guess is basically consistent with my original idea. It will become stronger when it encounters a strong force, but when it encounters 100 people, it cannot become the sum of the power of 100 people."

Shade smiled, staring at his opponent intently, swinging his left and right fists alternately, blocking the opponent's kick with his right foot, and hitting his head against the opponent's hood:

"Belonging to me but not me, and possessing its own traits, skills, and characteristics that work with me. Throw it over, Dorothy!"

"Due to the characteristics of [Jack Thief], its boxing points are exactly the same as Shad Hamilton's, and its basic strength and speed are exactly the same as Shad Hamilton's. The battle is even, please continue to roll the dice and fight in the next round."

A familiar voice sounded again, and Yin Luna, who had already rolled the dice three times for this battle, reached out and took the two dice again.

"That does not work."

People around also knew whether they could capture [Jack the Thief] tonight. At this opportunity, even Princess Agelina and Princess Margaret became nervous.

Miss Green, who was behind Yin Luna, lightly patted Yin Luna on the shoulder:

"No, if you continue like this, you will throw 53 for the first time, 54 for the second time, and 55 for the third time. Even if you throw the dice every time, you can get a higher number than the last two times, but Hamilton Sooner or later, sir, you will lose."

At the time of judgment, [Jack Thief]'s first score was consistent with Shade's, and the next two times maintained the extreme value of the previous number.

Yin Luna also knew this truth. At this time, the dark golden scale above her head was emitting light. The power of [Balance] enveloped the table, directly affecting the relics with the power of the chosen one, barely controlling the points. This was how she let the points count every time. The reason for increasing one by one. After her opponent died, Yin Luna also grasped the key to the game. Although she had no sacrifice, she was the balance.

But the maximum value of the dice is 100, and sooner or later she will make Shade's decision points reach the real extreme value. Yin Luna knew that Xia De was thinking of a way, and what she could do was delay it for a longer time.
