Chapter 1577 The meaning of whispers (please vote)
Shade, who was still feeling dizzy, looked at the strange spiritual light in a daze. He was not surprised by the spiritual rune itself, but he vaguely understood something:
"Whisper - End... The element of whisper can only appear in relics or related powers. But now I have not come into contact with any relics other than the black time key, and that key is not the source of this spiritual rune. The spiritual rune
The article comes from this world of time and space. Whispers...whispers...relics and whispering elements represent, is it really the 'darkness of the world' that Dr. Schneider told me (Chapter 14)?
"
He took a deep breath of the choking air, and recalled another of the doctor's original descriptions of the "whispering element" - "Whispers are almost natural phenomena, reverberating throughout the material world."
"What the whisper represents...can't be the lingering sound of the world's imminent demise? So, the relics actually belong to the world...but that's not right. The appearance of relics has been around since the Second Era.
It has begun. Moreover, shouldn’t the Sixth Age, which is closer to its final destruction, have more relics?”
The more Sha De thought about it, the more he felt something was wrong, and the spirit in his soul became violently agitated as he thought. Finally, Sha De made a "pop" sound, covered his chest and spurted out a mouthful of blood, and then wiped
His face, nose, ears and eyes were all bleeding.
Although he had not gone through any battle, he was already seriously injured. Knowing that he could no longer think about it, Shade quickly stopped thinking and suspected that this perishing world was inducing him to die as well.
At this time, I feel that my body has recovered a little, and I have time to look around. Of course, this is also to distract myself and prevent myself from thinking about those strange things.
The windows in the living room were boarded up, making the place dim with almost no light. There was an astonishingly small amount of furniture in the living room, not to mention Shade's knight sword, shield, honorary degree certificate, there were even clothes racks by the door, and the wall.
There are no cabinets.
The few remaining pieces of furniture were covered with white cloth and placed on the dirty floor covered with white dust and mold. The only piece of furniture that was not covered with white cloth was the sofa in front of the fireplace.
The style of the fabric sofa was very familiar to Shade. It was the one that was in the living room when Sparrow Hamilton died. When the strangers arrived, this old sofa had been replaced by Lesia and is now in the living room.
Went to the basement:
"Sure enough, there was no me in the past life and the sixth era."
Shade thought in his mind that he had guessed this the last time he saw that the side sleeper that originally belonged to him didn't even have a bed and was used as a storage room for storing sundries (Chapter 1154).
In the Sixth Age, when the Strangers had not arrived, Sparrow Hamilton did not even meet the blind and foolish original owner...
"Um?"
He tilted his head slightly, something seemed wrong. The Stranger's awakening should be the day Detective Sparrow died. The history before that was not affected by the arrival of the Stranger. Therefore, even if there is no Stranger's past life,
·In the sixth era, that side sleeping room should also have an owner.
"Although I can't explain this situation, the change must have occurred in the spring of 1853, that is, half a year before I woke up. What exactly happened at that time?"
He cooed softly, waited for a moment and then continued to look around when he didn't hear "her" voice.
"Although I know that this is not my home, such dirty floors, peeling walls, and choking, musty, humid air...it's really uncomfortable."
Because the time he can stay is not limited, Shade doesn't have to race against time like he used to when using the time key. He looked around, then walked to the sofa, sat down slowly, and let out a long breath:
"First of all, the specific time point now is..."
The thaumaturgy [Father of Contact with the Infinite Tree] was used, but the answer he got was very surprising:
【Now is not any point in time, time is also broken.】
Although there is no specific time for the location of the previous Time Key mission, at least there will be reminders such as "Spring, Summer, Autumn, and Winter" when using the key. This time, it only said "The Last Era" at the beginning, and Shade could guess some of it.
matter:
"Is this the end? Everything ceases to exist, and time and space are completely chaotic."
And the chaotic time means that Shade probably won't be able to touch the long-haired Luvia.
"Is there anything moving around here?"
Shade asked in his heart.
【No.】
"Well, let's start exploring."
If possible, Shade would actually like to use [Moon Dream] on this sofa to sleep for 4 hours to restore his energy. But this world is still showing him the horror and malice of the doomsday without reservation, so even if
There is no time limit and you can take a short rest. Shade feels that it is best not to stay in this place for too long.
Last time in the dream at the end of the year, because he met little Mia with silver eyes on the second floor, and then chased the cat in the dream all the way to the third floor, entered the attic and climbed to the roof, so Shade didn't actually explore it carefully.
this house.
Since he had the opportunity this time, he walked down the stairs, intending to confirm everything in the house from the basement. Of course, he did not forget to be on guard against the appearance of "strong enemies".
What is very interesting is that just like the stairs connecting the second floor to the third floor are filled with several doors connected by adhesion spells from unknown sources, so in this doomsday home, the brick wall that originally blocked the first floor has also been filled.
was opened.
However, it is obvious that the users of the house in [The Past and the Sixth Era] did not regard this place as their home, because there is not even a piece of furniture on the first floor. The windows are also boarded up, and the ground is filled with white ash.
Underneath the ashes was a damp floor corroded by mold.
After entering the basement, the debris that Shade accumulated here, as well as his potion workshop and alchemy workshop that should exist in a real home, did not exist. Only the things that existed when he opened the basement were the only ones here.
Items left behind by your previous owner or previous owner.
But that was not what Shade was concerned about. With the moonlight lighting up his fingertips, he came to the wall at the deepest point of the basement, and the life ring slowly emerged behind him.
Regardless of whether the outsider arrives or not, the hidden wall in the basement will always exist. After all, when he first entered the space behind the hidden wall, the things existing inside already showed that at least hundreds of years ago, the [Light-Guiding Hermitage]
The forerunners found it here.
Then the [Time and Space] spirit runes bloomed with spiritual light, and the light shone on the wall, and the wall disappeared just as Shade expected.
With a smile on his face, he stepped forward to go deep into the black passage in front of him, but unexpectedly he hit a completely invisible transparent wall.
"Oh, my nose!"
【Outlander, a tip from the Father of the Infinite Tree.】
[You cannot leave the Saint Teresa Square area.]
"I know, but doesn't it belong to Saint Teresa Square behind this wall?"
Shade covered his red nose and complained in a low voice, but all he got was a light laugh from "her".
Since the "Space Maze" still exists, Shade is naturally thinking about the other doors in his home. Among them, the [Dark Dungeon] in the basement requires "Impermanence and Darkness" to open, and the "Secret Keeper's Hall" on the second floor requires "Aiken"
Aura - Arrow of the Chosen" can appear.
Therefore, the only things Shade could investigate were the [Earth Furnace] in the basement and the [Soul Cemetery] on the third floor.
What surprised him very much was that these two special spaces actually existed. Among them, the [Soul Cemetery] appeared because of the "edge of life and death" that originally existed in the house, so it was still located in the corridor on the third floor. And still
The [Earth Core Furnace], which exists in the form of a trap door, is still in the basement, but its location has changed from the side of the stairs to the center of the basement.
Of course, Shade couldn't enter these two places either, so he could only watch the door appear in front of him.
"In the past and the sixth era, some people also placed many doors at No. 6 Saint Teresa Square, just like what I did."
Apart from those doors, there are no other clues worth paying attention to in this house. Except for Room 1 on the second floor where Sparrow originally lived as a detective, there is not even furniture in other areas. This is still a "haunted house" before it was repaired.
state.
Shade opened each room, and then remembered all the things he had experienced in different rooms, which made him even more unable to accept that the ending of No. 6 Saint Teresa Square was like this.
He originally thought that he might be able to find old newspapers and other debris, and at least understand the news that he had not experienced. But there was really nothing here. Instead, he himself was mentally exhausted because he stayed at this point in time for too long.
The condition is getting worse and worse.
"Only the last roof remains."
With his last hope, Shade climbed up to the attic. However, after looking up at the small door leading to the roof, he did not leave immediately. Instead, he came to the decorative wall of the attic and used the spell "fossils to mud" to turn it into mud.
His hand reached into the wall.
Soon, he grabbed a small cardboard box with his hand and pulled it out. There were not many things in the cardboard box. They were travel postcards and old photos from various places in the old continent, and there were only scenery and no people in the photos.
"Sure enough, this also exists."
This was discovered by the workers in the wall when Shade renovated the house after Detective Sparrow died (Chapter 463). Shade speculated at the time that this was a souvenir left by the "Grey Eagle" when he performed missions in various parts of the Old World.
.Since these photos also exist at this point in time, Shade can be absolutely sure that at least the history of Detective Sparrow once owning this house still exists.
"So, the difference between this place and the time I was at probably only appeared in the spring of 1853."
He put the box on the floor, then finally opened the small door on the roof and jumped onto the roof.
