The bearded man said, sitting in the snow and looking at Shade. He was a sixth-level man, and the injuries this time were not light. Even if Shade did not restrain them, it would be difficult for them to escape from Shade.
"Event-type relics. Let me tell you briefly."
The cultist nodded and supported his body on the snow with one hand. When he looked into the fence gate, he still retained a look of fear:
"You can understand that the ghosts in Watson Manor are now controlled by an ancient ghost from the fifth era. They still remember what happened in their lifetime, but think that they are at an unknown time in the fifth era.
Members of a large noble family. As long as they enter here, men will be given the status of servants. If they cannot find a way to recall their status, they will become slaves forever and serve in this haunted manor."
"That's it"
When he said this, Shade remembered this relic. He heard Dr. Schneider mention it during a casual conversation:
"Although it is a secret keeper, it will basically not have any impact on the outside world. All the impact is limited to a certain house, like a farce set in the previous era. But correspondingly, as long as there is no intrusion from the outside world,
, it is also difficult to discover the situation inside. Moreover, this relic will not give the affected person any power. The difficulty is just that they cannot forget their identity. I remember that the way to expel the relic is to find it among the ghosts.
The ghost that really comes from the fifth era. Therefore, the larger the scene, the more ghosts there are, and the more difficult things will be. Fortunately, it’s okay, it’s a secret keeper level, but if it’s a sage level, it will be troublesome.”
Shade nodded with satisfaction, and then said to them:
"The thing you are wary of is also my opponent. You are lucky. I need you to send a message to your cult - that thing is afraid of the special cross, and the so-called weapons in the manor, unfortunately, cannot be used against it.
Cause too much damage."
Xia De said sadly:
"If you want to fight it, my suggestion is the weapons of the demon hunters of the Third Age. I think you and your allies should know this more or less."
He took back the Chain of Sin, but did not cancel the [Light of Imprisonment] for the time being:
"It only takes one person to deliver the message, but you are lucky. I don't have time to deal with you now. I will kill you here. If you are also absorbed by this manor, you will be in trouble."
He stretched out his hand and rubbed his thumb and index finger:
"Money to buy life."
The three of them looked at each other. The bearded man at the head first took out a bottle:
"Holy water No. 2 is not pure pure water, it is diluted. We originally planned to use it to deal with the ghosts of the manor. Unexpectedly, the situation here is so complicated. This is not a simple haunted manor. Although this bottle of holy water is useful, it has little effect.
.”
Holy Water No. 2 is a real scarce commodity, and this bottle is probably circulated on the black market.
"This is all I have."
The man who vomited blood gave Shade a book. This is a book written by a ring wizard. It records the story of the Fourth Age. By reading it, it is possible to obtain thaumaturgy or spiritual runes - "The Secret of Earthquake: Worm Colony".
As for the young man with yellow hair, he shiveringly put his hand into his pocket, and then his expression suddenly turned ferocious, and he threw a shining metal charm at Shade:
"Exploding Talisman! Go to hell! I will never surrender, for the glory of my Lord!"
"don't want!"
The bearded man wanted to stop him, but his voice was drowned in the explosion.
"Interesting."
Of course, this kind of attack will not hurt Shade. Shade, who came behind the three people through [Ragrai's Jump], shook his head and said. While the young man turned his head in horror, Shade reached out and pointed at him.
Mouth:
"Thorn of the Moon!"
Bloody vines emerged from the soil and penetrated densely through his mouth, nose, ears and eyes. Even without the blood-sucking effect of the vines, the vines had already pierced his head. When he fell, his entire head was covered with blood.
Already wrapped in vines.
Blood flowed from the gaps in the vines, staining a large area of snow red.
"This thaumaturgy can indeed be used like this."
Xia De thought to himself and looked around:
"Very good, his soul was not snatched away by the manor. This is good news."
After saying that, he looked at the other two people who were surprised:
"Since you have already paid for your life, I won't embarrass you. Just take his body and leave. I will definitely kill you next time we meet."
[Light of Confinement] was still not cancelled. Shade planned to wait until they were far away and let the thaumaturgy automatically fail.
So the two men helped each other stand up, then picked up the body and prepared to leave. Before they left, Shade asked again:
"I heard about the Zhengshen Church's raid on your stronghold, and I have some speculation about what you want to do. Although I don't think you can succeed, I still want to ask, are you really sure you want to do this?"
"This is the glory of being a believer."
The bearded man said, and then he tensed up and dragged the body forward with his companions. Fortunately, the expected attack from behind did not appear, and they left like this.
"There is no cure."
Shade murmured something, and as "her" chuckled, he took out the ring from his pocket and put it on his hand, then picked up the suitcase and pushed open the fence door again.
Only this time, before Shade could touch the door, the door opened by itself, as if the place was welcoming Shade to enter.
He raised his eyebrows:
"Well, let me see what the Watson family has found to deal with Stone Oxenfurt and that devil."
So he walked in calmly.
The "Crazy Land" in this area still needs to find the core of the problem to solve. When Shade entered the courtyard, he felt that the originally gloomy sky suddenly turned into night, but the snow was getting heavier and heavier.
Some kind of force seems to be trying to change Shade's perception of his own identity. Unfortunately, Shade is the most resistant to this kind of power to control the mind. He carried his suitcase, turned up his collar, and walked in the dark night
Zhong walked through the courtyard with difficulty in the heavy snow, arrived at the door of the mansion, and knocked on the door directly.
Dong Dong Dong~
The heavy sound seemed to echo inside the house, so much so that even the snow on the eaves was falling. Feeling increasingly cold, Shade slowly exhaled and saw the long smoke drifting away with the wind.
The door, which was in decay because it had not been repaired for three years, was quickly pushed open through a gap. Shade could only vaguely see the light and shadow of the spirit body, followed by a woman's voice:
"Who comes to visit the Watson family?"
Before Xia De could answer, his initially respectful voice turned vicious:
"Oh, it's actually a man. Who asked you to break in here casually, or are you the humble servant who escaped?"
Following her words, some great malice began to exert an extremely targeted influence on Shade. Shade frowned slightly and asked softly:
"Can the Watson family neglect the emperor's special envoy like this?"
"special envoy?"
The woman's voice became a little sharp, but the malice disappeared a lot:
"Which emperor's envoy you are? Can you prove your identity?"
"I am the ruler of Widun and the most loyal servant of the Witch Emperor Violet. This is the seal she gave me."
As he spoke, Shade showed off the ring he was wearing on his hand. The ring was quite thick, and both the ring surface and the ring were made of gold. The pattern on the ring surface was a complex symbol that resembled a curved cross. This was a
In addition to the decorative function of the ring itself, the power ring is also a seal. This is a "souvenir" given to Shade by Miss Violet when he completed his final adventure in the Lost Lake in 5177 of the Fifth Era.
The Keeper-level relic "Noble Family" symbolizes the aristocratic tradition of the Fifth Era and does not refer to any specific point in time. Therefore, this relic can identify with the identity of any era in this era. Of course, it does not mean that you can just hold anything
As a status symbol, it must be a status symbol truly obtained by the ancestors, such as inherited rings, seals, medals, etc.
Although Shade didn't know what his ancestor in this body had done in the Fifth Era, fortunately, he himself had gained many identities in the Fifth Era.
The reason why this precious ring is in Shade's pocket instead of in the basement of his home is because he exchanged it for the relic on Mia's tail a few days ago, and then turned it into a toy and put it in his pocket.
Sure enough, just as Shade thought, when he showed the ring in his hand to the crack of the door, the maid immediately said in panic:
"Oh, it turns out you are really the emperor's special envoy. Please wait a moment."
As she spoke, she moved towards the inside of the mansion. Because she was a ghost, she couldn't hear the footsteps at all.
Soon, the crack in the door was once again illuminated by the light of the soul itself, and this time the door was completely opened. I saw that the huge hall was dilapidated, with mold and dust attached to every corner, and there were only a few left on the walls.
Many hanging paintings and photo frames also look gray.
The dim light of the gas lamp created large shadows in the foyer, and standing on the moldy carpet that was almost integrated with the ground to greet Shade was a transparent soul dressed as a maid, and a man carrying a cane on his back.
The black ghoul, whose body was severely deformed, had a putrid smell on his body, and when he spoke, it seemed like there was a mouthful of phlegm stuck in his throat:
"Welcome to Watson Manor, I am the butler here. Distinguished guest, I wonder what the purpose of your visit is."
"On my way to the Serksess Medical School to deliver an urgent letter, I encountered heavy snowfall while passing through the local area. I hope it will disturb me for one night."
Shade said that even though he had the ring to prove his identity, he couldn't talk about his background story casually. Entering this manor was equivalent to entering a story that was based on reality but did not exist, and the story naturally required
