The old lighthouse on the island in the middle of the lake is located at the back of this ancient noble courtyard. First, walk through the snow-covered courtyard in the snow and fog, and enter the dead woods behind the manor from the small door at the back. Continue along the path in the dead woods.
Go forward and the end point is the lighthouse in the northeast corner of the island.
Compared with other buildings on the island, this lighthouse is probably the only building that has been in constant use. After all, no matter what organization occupies this island, as long as ships are needed to transport ships in the Great Lakes, a lighthouse is needed to guide the direction.
The pier under the lighthouse is also the largest of the three piers on the island.
As expected, a group of ghosts lived in the old manor. When Shade and Iluna passed by the courtyard, they stood at the window, watching without saying a word in the dark window that had no glass or curtains.
Looking at the two people walking in the snow. These are the souls bound here by this island and this manor, so Shade deliberately used the "Death Door" to open a gap when passing by the side of the mansion, and left voluntarily.
The ghosts can continue walking from here, after all, they are not bound by the evil things of the Pantanal like the "Swamp Witch".
But it is a pity that none of the men and women in gorgeous dresses in the manor used this door. They probably have other stories and other wishes, but Shade has no time to investigate tonight.
In the abandoned back garden, only the remains of the stone fountain pool and the fence to prevent animals from intruding still remain. The fountain is shaped like an angel with wings on its back, but unfortunately its head and left arm are missing.
After entering the dead woods behind the manor, Shade thought he would encounter the enemy again, but nothing happened.
The two of them just watched quietly as the blurry lighthouse in the fog became clearer and clearer, and the light of "first fire" in Shade's eyes became more and more obvious.
It wasn't until they were about to pass through the dead forest that Shade took the initiative to stop. The heavy fog here only blocked the line of sight and would not interfere with the transmission of sound. However, after arriving on the island, they did not hear the sound of high-level warlocks fighting with all their strength. Seeing that,
They were about to reach their destination. Although Shade couldn't guess what was going on, he could see the faint light of normal fire.
By the light of the fire, I could see that on the outskirts of the dead forest, the paths branched off to the left and right. The uphill road on the right leads to the lighthouse at a high place, while the flat road on the left leads to the ancient ruins Stonehenge under the lighthouse. It is built with wood.
Braziers, placed along the path to the left, light up the final approach to Stonehenge.
The road to the "Observation Ceremony" was right in front of him. He looked at the two roads to the left and right, and then said to Iluna:
"Sister Devlin looks like she hasn't arrived yet. I think I need to go to the lighthouse first."
The nun asked the witches to tell Shade that both of them can stabilize the entire seal by stabilizing the flame of the first fire. Now there is less than half an hour before the ceremony of the chosen one. Although you can take the left path
You can see Lykins Plisha directly on the road, but Shade still thinks that what he needs most is to go to the lighthouse.
Witnessing the ceremony of the chosen one and confirming the identity of the fourth chosen one is the real task Luvia gave to Shad. Compared with Lykins Prisha, once the evil thing in Pantanal is released from the seal
, the harm caused will be even greater. After all, even if they cannot defeat Lykins Prisha this time, they still have many years to solve the problem of this chosen one before the thirteenth chosen one appears.
matter.
Iluna also knew what Shade was thinking. She stood in the snow, pursed her lips and looked at Shade, whose smaller body was illuminated by the distant fire:
"This time, I will face the new chosen one alone?"
"You are the protagonist of the Sixth Age epic. Be more confident. Your opponent this time is not as strong as Joey Barton."
This is true. Although Barton only had one link, he was standing in death at that time. Shade doubted that there was no one in the entire material world who could resist him except himself who was amplified by nuns, priests and Iluna at the same time.
Although Sir Priscilla is in the middle, the current environment does not give him much advantage.
Shade hugged Iluna, hesitated, and then gave her the hand crossbow and the "Arrow of Knowledge of Iken'ola". However, he still held the [Night Watch], and his next journey would not be the same.
Must be completely safe:
"I failed to shoot this arrow. Let's try to see if you have this chance. Don't be too nervous. Once Sister Devlin arrives at the lighthouse, I will go to you immediately. Try to delay as much time as possible. After I arrive at the tower, I will burn
I will watch you in the light. If you use this arrow, shoot it at the lighthouse. Even if this arrow is ineffective, I can give him a surprise on the tower later. He will definitely not expect this.
"
Shade said with a smile.
Iluna took over the weapon, and with the knowledge of the Chosen One, she could also make full use of the power of this arrow:
"But the special crossbow..."
"Sister Devlin's first fire can be molded into a weapon, just like water. Once the nun arrives, everything will be easy... maybe you can defeat Prisha with arrows."
Iluna still thought that Shade wanted to make a sneak attack. After nodding lightly, the seventeen-year-old girl mustered up the courage to kiss the side of his face:
"Be careful too."
She mounted the skeleton horse and ran towards the end of the dead forest.
Shade stood there and looked at Iluna's back, confirming that she had left the dead forest. Finally, he pulled the scarf to cover the lower half of his face, lowered his hat below his eyebrows, and then walked out in the wind and snow.
Dead forest.
The fire in front of him seemed to have turned into an illusion. It was clear that Shade had seen the fork in the road at the end of the dead forest, but when he actually stepped out of the forest, he was surprised to find that everything around him had changed.
Snow was still falling in the sky, but at some point a towering huge gray stone slab appeared around them. There were no traces of the dead forest behind them, and the same huge gray stone slab blocked the retreat.
Looking up at the sky, countless gray slates were floating in the air and slowly changing positions. Higher up, there was a completely invisible white mist. These gray slates looked familiar to Shade. The last time he saw them was the one of Lykins Plisha.
At that time, he summoned a bookshelf made of similar material from the snow.
"Could it be that......"
The silver moonlight in his hand illuminated the slate on the right, and sure enough, he saw densely packed text on the surface of the slate. After reading these Carson-like texts carefully, Shade recognized that they were from the famous poetry collection "Elegy on a Snowy Night" in the South.
The writer and Shade discussed the content of this collection of poems.
"The talent of the chosen one, library maze?"
He walked forward along the road in the middle of the two stone slabs, and sure enough, he saw roads leading to three directions at the fork in the mist ahead. He tried to use the spell "frog's leap" to jump directly into the air, but he jumped up high.
Then he hit the ground with his head, and he returned directly from the air to the ground.
This is not even a mythical lock or a word of sublimation, nor is it a space-type power. It is purely a strange space built by the talents of the chosen ones.
"If you guessed it correctly, every stone slab in this maze contains books that Lykins Prisha has read and the knowledge he has mastered."
The [Night Watcher] in his hand chopped the stone slab, but did not even leave any traces on the stone slab.
[The night watchman cannot cut off knowledge and wisdom.]
"She" whispered in Shade's ear, and Shade released the [Source of Chaos] that was stored in the small box, but the relic that should have been able to guide the way in this scene was not there at this time.
Point out the direction to the exit of the maze for Shade.
"Either his power can even suppress the relic, or there is actually an exit in any direction."
Shade took back this dangerous relic again, looked at the huge maze in front of him, and then tightened his collar:
"But since this is the labyrinth of the library... the exit!"
He directly assumed that the "exit" was a book, and the spell [Library Search] obtained from the old god [Grey Robe Sage], the "Library Guardian", immediately took effect.
Of course, the exit would not fly towards Shade, but he had already sensed its location. Even at that moment, he could completely "see" the structure of this so-called library maze.
Sir Lykins Prisha still doesn't know that although the [Secret Master] has the power of wisdom and knowledge, the library at night is truly the territory of the moon.
The time for the stars to reach the correct position is getting closer and closer, and Shade is almost trotting forward. There are no dangerous monsters or relics in this library maze. It is purely built with the knowledge of the chosen ones, so it hinders Shade's progress.
The nature is also related to this.
"What has four legs in the morning, two legs at noon, and three legs in the evening?"
A stone wall with no words but a huge face stood in front of him. After hearing the familiar question, Shade muttered in his heart that someone plagiarized the question he asked at the Lakeview Manor night banquet, and then answered without thinking.
:
"Humanity."
The stone wall automatically slid aside, allowing Shade to continue moving forward. After bypassing the wall with the "Beginner's Guide to Mechanical Technology" engraved on it, what blocked the road this time was a large tree with a human face on its trunk.
The big tree in the snow had blood-red branches, and there were densely packed mummies of rabbits and chickens hanging on the trunks. Shade suspected that these were images of the relics in Sir Prisha's memory, but he didn't know what these animal mummies were.
mean.
He knew it the next moment.
"A chicken and a rabbit are in the same cage. Counting from the top, there are 35 heads, and counting from the bottom, there are 94 legs. How many chickens and rabbits are there in the cage?"
The human face on the tree trunk asked after Shade approached. Shade was stunned, squatted down and scratched twice with his fingers in the snow:
"23,12."
The big tree withered and turned into a pile of ash in the snow, so Shade continued to move forward.
The third strange guy I encountered was a mummy standing stunned in the snow. It was wearing a bright red exaggerated banquet dress that would have been worn by nobles at least three hundred years ago, and a white hat on its head.
wig, Shade asked after approaching:
"I want to move forward, but I don't know whether I should move my left leg first or my right leg first. If I move my left leg first, then..."
Shade is in a hurry now and has no time to listen to what he has to say:
"Then let's move together. Don't discriminate against any leg. You should give them all the right to be number one."
The mummy was convinced, so it jumped away on its legs in the snow.
Shade turned to look at him, suspecting that Lykins Prisha had some serious mental illness, and continued to run forward.
At 11:11 a.m. on Thursday, Shade relied on the guidance of a spell to finally reach the exit of the library maze. It was a door made of a large book with a brown cover. After Shade struggled to open the pages, he saw a dark hole.
The passage finally appeared.
He took a few steps back, then rushed towards the door, and what greeted him in front was the last stretch of the road leading to the lighthouse.
