Chapter 1051: Nun, Fire and Two Butterflies (asking for votes)
Shade, who was holding a box in one hand and an oil lamp in the other, was led by Sister Devlin through the elevator inside the sacrificial site and arrived at the true "First Fire Sacrificial Site" located on the ground floor.
The flames of the original fire were burning in the center of the circular sacrificial field with layers of upwards. The nun's weapon "Ashes" long sword was stuck diagonally in the center of the bonfire, and the flames were licking the strange long sword.
"Offer firewood."
A blind nun wearing a gray nun's robe stood next to the brazier, her silver eyepatch reflecting the dancing unstable firelight.
Shade handed the narrow-necked bottle containing the "Devil's Remains" to the nun, who put her right hand into the flame. The first fire almost immediately ignited her right hand, and at the same time as the burn marks appeared, the cracks that appeared on the surface of the skin spontaneously
The flames covered the nun's body, until sparks appeared at the tips of her long gray hair.
Sister Devlin, who was ignited by the first fire, also stretched her left hand into the flames of the bonfire. As the "Devil's Remains" held in both hands were completely engulfed, the not strong flames rushed upward violently, like
In celebration the new firewood was lit.
At the same time, traces of the "remnants of the original fire" also appeared on Shade's body. The strength of the original fire also made the flames in his body even more powerful.
"The Romance of Fairy Wood"
"Offer fire."
The nun spoke softly again, her voice as steady and soothing as glacier water.
Shade opened the lampshade of the lantern, and Sister Devlin still stretched out her hands directly. This time it was both hands. The hands with cracked surfaces and the color of magma flowing through them enveloped Shade's home and had been collected for 8 days.
A weak flame produced by "the fire of the sun".
Compared to the First Fire she was guarding, the sun's flames burned the nun's porcelain-like skin more mercilessly. The nun only trembled slightly, but Shade still noticed a flush on her fair cheeks under her eyepatch.
The nun took out the lantern and put the flame into the brazier. The two strange flames merged together and naturally became the same flame. The first fire that merged with the "fire of the sun" appeared a pale golden color.
But it soon returned to its original color.
Ignoring the burn marks on her hands, Sister Devlin drew her hands inward in the brazier. All the flames immediately gathered into her hands, until the flames in her palms turned into Shade's familiar, circular flames pointing upward.
Drag the flame tail to look like it.
She did not take the "primordial fire" directly into her body, but turned her trembling body towards Shade:
"Hero who inherited the first fire, please touch the darkness within me at this moment."
The grammar was quite ancient, and in a trembling voice, he spoke words that Shade didn't quite understand.
【She wants to give you strength.】
"She" said in Shade's ear with a smile.
Sure enough, the nun with flames flowing all over her body held the weak first flame toward Shade, so Shade knelt down on one knee and stretched out his right hand between the nun's hands.
At this moment, it was like a hero who was given power in an old oil painting. When his hand was placed between the nun's burned hands, the flames followed Shade's right arm and also engulfed him.
In that firelight, the original fire gave Shade new powers:
[Outlander, your cold resistance has been greatly enhanced, and your fire resistance has been greatly enhanced.]
"I'm sorry, even with new firewood, the flame is still weak, and I can't provide you with more power."
The nun said softly. She was not as excited as Shade thought.
"It doesn't matter."
Shade stood up and looked at the flames between Sister Devlin's hands:
"Although it is not 100% certain, the selection ceremony of the fourth selected person will most likely be held in the Pantanal area. By then, we will not only have the opportunity to go to the center of the swamp to recover the split
The flames may even confront the evil in the Pantanal.”
Sister Devlin showed a faint smile on her face:
"I will act together with the witches, and then you can go to the ceremony site with us."
Shade nodded and looked at the [Ash End] sword that was still burning in the brazier:
"Sister, I have something to ask you. I know that the [Spiritual Order] also has the tradition of worshiping the moon. Do you have any method to enhance the power of perceiving the moon? I wonder if you have heard about Tobesk.
I'm looking for an item that represents the yellow moon."
The nun nodded:
"Follow me to the library to get books. As long as you are interested in the knowledge here, you can borrow it. However, you need additional ritual materials to enhance the perception of the moon."
"Can I use moonlight water?"
"Pure moonlight?"
The nun "looked" at Shade:
"That's enough."
"Then, do you have a way to temporarily integrate me with the fire of the sun, and then take out the flame at the right time?"
This is for the witch Miss Cloyin who is trapped in the "Silver Mountains". Shade cannot carry extraordinary items to the past time at will, especially that item is not a "mission item". But if he can temporarily assimilate the "sun"
"Fire", then this flame can appear in the past with Shade just like the first fire.
"The original fire can accommodate any flame it has swallowed. This requires the skill of manipulating flames. I will teach you."
Her hand held Shade's hand. Shade was startled and looked up to see Sister Devlin's face flushed, but he was not sure whether it was an illusion in the dim light.
After bidding farewell to Sister Devlin that afternoon, Shade went to Cassandra Auction House to visit Grace and Helen. It was also snowing in Fort Midhill today, and the Red Butterfly Twins were chatting with the Witch
Together with the apprentice Miss Swift, they inspect the contained relics in the basement.
It happened that nothing happened today. Before leaving from Fort Midhill, Shade finally fulfilled his promise, took sisters Grace and Helen, and borrowed the power of [Magician's Escape Box] from Fort Midhill.
Went to No. 6, Saint Teresa Square.
The fifteen-year-old girl, who was wearing a black dress and a white dress respectively, seemed particularly excited about this short trip. But little Mia felt particularly unhappy about the arrival of two more strangers.
"Sir, this is where you live now?"
Even though Helen, as "Miss Black," had peeked into the place where Detective Sparrow lived, it was still extremely interesting to appear here with her sister and Shade this time.
The twin girls did not ask for more. They just had dinner with Shade at his home and sat in front of the fireplace to listen to him telling his stories. They left for Fort Midhill at 9:30 in the evening.
According to the experiment, just as Xia De guessed, the Red Butterfly Twins can use the [Space Maze] to move by touching the statue of the ancient god.
After all, the power of the Geminis comes from the old gods [Gemini Gods], and the old gods [Gemini Gods] carry the power of the ancient gods [Primary Crack] whose statues are "two-headed". Although Grace and Helen did not inherit
The power of space, but as relics, the source of their power is indeed the ancient god.
After establishing the road sign at No. 6 St. Teresa Square this time, they will no longer have to go through the [Magician's Escape Box] to travel between Middleburg and Shade's home. But it is a pity that although they are following Shade or in Saint Teresa
Square Six allows the Geminis to leave Fort Midhill for a short time, but this short "trip" also tells them that they cannot do this frequently.
Therefore, Helen, Grace and Shade made an agreement to visit Shade once a month. After Shade agreed, the two girls kissed Shade on the cheek, smiling.
After saying goodbye to Shade, he held hands and touched the statue in the basement and left here.
"Speaking of which, when I saw them this time, they seemed to look a little more mature than last time."
Shade thought when he walked out of the basement. He put his hand into his pocket and touched a handkerchief he had never seen before. Then he realized that this was probably the handkerchief Helen secretly stuffed into his pocket when they parted. The handkerchief had a black lace edge.
There is even residual heat from the body temperature. Among the Geminis, Helen prefers this color scheme.
[As their injuries heal, their appearance will change towards their true form, which is in their twenties.]
"She" said softly, Shade nodded, looked at the handkerchief in his hand, and stuffed it into his pocket again:
"Although they can't accompany me to participate in the final battle of the Chosen Ceremony this time, they might be able to help me with something in the future."
【Is this really the only thing you think of?】
she asked with a smile.
The time came on Wednesday, which was the Day of the Red Butterfly. Shade had planned to go to Dorothy early in the morning, and then wait until the official start of the Day of the Red Butterfly at noon. But while having breakfast, Miss Danister passed
The news from the poem manuscript page made Shade put down the half-eaten bread and went to the St. Byrons Library through the projection.
It was still the open space in the center of the library, still sitting on a chair facing the coffee table and sofa. After Shade came back to his senses, he immediately saw the very familiar stone slab placed on the coffee table.
It is about the size of a palm, with the ancient rune number "three" on its surface. The three corners are clearly the corners of a large yellow gemstone.
The tablet obtained from Mr. Edmond has the number "two" and silver corners; the tablet obtained from the Apner Library has the number "one" and ruby corners.
He even forgot to say hello and asked in disbelief:
"This is......"
The librarian lady put down her teacup:
"Yes, what you are looking for is indeed in the library. I hired a dozen students to help search for it, and it took me half a week to find it. There are too many books and treasures in the college library. This kind of
Items whose dangers have not been discovered and whose value is unclear are often placed in a suitable place by a certain generation of librarians, and no one pays attention to them anymore."
Miss Denister said, and then told Shade some bad news.
