Chapter 871 Snake Skin and Temple Oil Painting (please vote for me)
He held the sword in both hands and swung a [Moonlight Slash] forward. The bright moonlight temporarily illuminated the corridor, but it went straight through the snake's head, as if the snake was really just an illusion.
The snake looked at Shade and swam towards him slowly but with an increasingly strong whispering power.
[Because I don’t know the characteristics of the relic, I can’t know the specific reason. But when I touched the snake just now, I can confirm that the other party is in the physical state. 】
"Then why"
[When your attack touches the opponent's snake skin, the corresponding position is transformed into a special state of nothingness. You did hit the target, but you just failed to hurt the opponent. This should be one of the characteristics of the relic.]
"Wherever you attack, there will be nothingness?"
Shade came to understand, and the best way to deal with this kind of enemy seemed to be to attack the opponent's whole body in an instant, but there was also the possibility that the opponent's whole body could become insubstantial.
"It is indeed a very troublesome relic. No wonder I dare to carry out such a task with only three rings. I didn't do it when I was three rings."
Thinking of what he was doing when he was in the third ring, Xia De thought again:
"However, since it is not avoiding the attack, but making the attack ineffective, then it is not really without weaknesses."
He thought of another method, and the dark chain of sin flowed out from the sleeve of his left hand. The runes of "Gluttony", "Greed" and "Sloth" written in the languages of different eras were intertwined in series on the chain. Through the ritual, [ After "Laziness" was also linked to this thaumaturgy, the strength and length of the Sin Chain became more outstanding than before.
Coupled with the spell-[Living Rope Trick] learned from the "Pink Book", Shade can now control the chain more freely.
The slender black chain climbed towards the big snake along the carpet in the darkness, and the dark snake also crawled towards Shade. When the chain and the big snake came into contact, the latter did not pay attention to this slender "similar" at all. Just as Shade expected, the Sin Chain tried to bind the snake, but it still passed through the snake's body.
And at this moment, the climbing snake paused suddenly, and at the same time, Shade also felt that the spirit in his body was being consumed rapidly because the chains were imprisoning an extremely powerful guy:
"Sure enough, although it can't attack, it can still be imprisoned!"
The big snake did not stop completely, but its squirming body seemed to have been affected by a not-so-skilled petrification technique.
Taking advantage of this opportunity, Shade took a step forward and appeared directly in front of the big snake. He waved his sword with both hands and the light traces of the silver moon left a brilliant afterglow in the darkness. But at this moment, the huge imprisoned The black snake actually melted into the darkness, and Shade's attack failed again:
"Relying on dark space to move? What kind of creature does that snake skin originally belong to?"

Qiang~
The big sword he swung swept across the strange triangular snake head that was biting to the left. The snake had obviously broken free of its chains by relying on its ability to move in space, but Shade's sword did not go through the snake's head, but actually chopped it on the snake's head. There was a heavy crashing sound:
"Space power and virtual power cannot be used at the same time?"
The moonlight sword flicked the snake away hard. After landing, the big snake hissed and spat out the message towards Shade. It looked directly at the human in front of it in the darkness. It was getting stronger and stronger.
"Space stabilizing halo!"
Shade stepped on the ground with his left foot, and invisible ripples spread in all directions. The black snake seemed to have sensed something, and turned around to retreat.
"Chains of Sin!"
The chain slid out towards the ground again, and the big snake quickly wanted to avoid it, but the [Live Rope Trick] in "The Pink Book" specifically restrained this kind of flexible movement. No matter how agile a lady is, it would be difficult to avoid being manipulated by the trick.
A rope, let alone a snake. Therefore, in the brief confrontation between the snake's tail and the chain, it was still penetrated by the chain.
The snake's head slowly turned to Shade, and opened its mouth to reveal its fangs, as if it wanted to make a desperate blow, but Shade would not give it another chance. The last thing the snake saw was the extremely gorgeous moonlight.
"Moonlight Great Sword!"
The silver sword fell behind the big snake, passed through the snake's head, and scattered into little glows in the darkness.
Pa da ~
The snake's head fell on the carpet, and the heavy body fell with it.
Shade breathed a sigh of relief and noticed that as the giant snake corpse burned, the gas lamp in the corridor quickly turned on. But he still frowned, because inside the burning snake corpse, a man's body actually appeared again, and the corpse
The head was broken like a snake corpse:
"This relic is really evil."
When the last dark firelight disappeared, the giant snake's body was completely burned to ashes, leaving only the man's body lying on the carpet, but strangely no blood flowed out. In the mouth of the man's head, a small piece of snake
A corner of the skin was exposed.
Shade bent down and pulled the piece of snake skin out of the corpse's mouth, confirming that it was the relic itself. Probably because Shade had just defeated it, its whispering element was much weaker than before:
"A clerical grade (level 4) trophy, but this thing is really disgusting."
Putting the piece of snakeskin in his notebook, Shade briefly searched the man's body, but found nothing:
"He goes out without a wallet, confidential letters, or even a diary? Is he poorer than me?"
He complained softly, used a handkerchief to turn the canvas toy into a canvas, and then used the canvas to turn the corpse into a toy.
Looking at the corridor that was damaged due to the short battle just now, he took a deep breath and used [Breath of Time] to flow back time and restore everything to its original appearance.
Without staying here for long, Shade continued to walk along the corridor. After walking up the stairs, he soon came to the door of Miss Sylvia's lounge, but after knocking on the door, he did not get any response.
"Sorry, please forgive me for being rude."
Shade said softly, turned the handle and pushed open the door.
It was a pity that although the lights were on in the room, there was no one there. The window in the room was closed tightly, and the thick embroidered curtains blocked the moonlight outside the window.
"Where did Miss Sylvia go?"
He quickly walked to the window, opened the curtains and looked outside. Outside this room was the garden of the manor. The garden where there should have been gas lights was dark at the moment, but relying on dark vision, Shade could see the three buildings of the church.
A low-level warlock is fighting a fifth-level warlock holding a flower pot. You can also see a sixth-level warlock from the Church of the Machine building a machine in the void and fighting a sixth-level warlock who is manipulating vines.
In the garden of this mansion, there were at least a dozen people fighting. The two sides were the church and the hired Pantanal Voodoo Society. It was obvious that the church had the upper hand, but everyone tacitly agreed not to use their belts.
Spells and thaumaturgy with obvious sound and light effects.
Shade found no trace of Miss Sylvia in the garden. He frowned and looked indoors again. Then he suddenly closed his eyes, holding his breath and concentrating. Following some vague inspiration, he opened his eyes.
When I arrived at the door, I looked at the oil painting facing the door:
"There's something wrong with this painting."
The gas lamp in the corridor was very bright, and the red carpet under my feet even looked scarlet in the light.
The oil painting under the gas lamp is a gray temple like a pyramid located in a dense forest. The temple is made of square bricks and is almost completely submerged by giant trees and vines. At first glance, there is nothing special about it.
It's an ordinary ruins landscape painting, but when you stare closely at that painting, you actually feel like you're being sucked into it.
As he blinked his eyes, the painting suddenly turned into a weird and indescribable thing, a terrifying thing composed of trees, vines, grass, flowers, and thorns. But when he blinked again, it changed back to its original appearance.
Shade took a step back in surprise, but quickly came to the wall. He reached out and picked up the oil painting, and felt four elements at the same time when he touched it.
He stretched out his hand to touch the screen, but his hand was immediately bounced away by a huge force:
"what's the situation?"
[There is a subspace sealed in the painting, similar to the 'Language of Sublimation' and the 'Mystery Lock', but not the first two. Emma Sylvia is most likely to be in it and can feel the power of the witch in the painting. 】
"Can I get in?"
Shade frowned slightly. Although he didn't know what the situation was, as long as he found Miss Sylvia, all the problems could be solved.
[Use your sword to pierce it. But you have to be aware that similar spaces are easy to enter but difficult to leave.]
"I know."
His right hand pulled out the moonlight sword from the air again, but this time it was the slender yellow sword. Shade held the sword in both hands and pointed the tip of the sword at the oil painting with a serious expression:
"I want to see what happened."
The tip of the sword pierced the oil painting, and the bright light in the corridor suddenly went out. Everything around him was fading, and the illusory colors were rapidly reorganizing.
Shade looked around with vigilance. The stench and rotten smell came over him. He was now standing in a corridor with sewage flowing on the ground. The surrounding stone walls were covered with green plants.
Lighting is done here.
This looks like the interior of an ancient building that has long been abandoned in a large swamp. This desolate corridor exudes a sense of antiquity and vicissitudes of life. Nature and mystery seem to be perfectly blended here.
Carefully observe the stone walls covered with green plants, and carefully look at the shallow running water under your feet. Moving forward along the corridor, the shimmering things on the walls look like tree roots, or like ivy-like things. He became stronger and stronger. The air gradually became thinner, and the unknown mental pressure made every step forward for Shade more difficult.
He quickly followed the corridor to the end, which was a square temple space. The six sides of the entire room were all made of gray rough ashlar, and there was a stone platform on the innermost wall. There is a horrific statue made of plant remains.
