Holding the cat, Xia De looked back at the moonlight outside the window again:
"We didn't find the relic during the day. It seems that it's not just the wrong time..."
Amid the whistle and bell, the rotating brass life ring slowly emerged from the depths of the steam mist. The spiritual light of the core spirit rune Silver Moon illuminated the wall, but after waiting for a long time, nothing appeared.
"Could it be that I am wrong, and this is not the routine this time?"
Maybe you could try it a little more.
"You mean, because it's the source of chaos, we use the Yellow Moon Spirit Rune?"
Xia De asked in his heart, but he did not try to do so immediately because he saw the circular shadow of his own life ring reflected on the wall due to the thin moonlight.
"oh?"
He looked at the perfect circle on the wall and himself inserted into the circle like a vertical bar, and felt that it was some kind of interesting mysterious symbol.
Then he suddenly had an inspiration, and he moved his feet slightly, while moving the life ring behind him up and down, until the center of the circle reflected on the wall was right in front of the original ink mark. Then, Xia De squatted slightly, so that his eyes were also at the center of the circle.
In this way, the moonlight outside the window entered the room, then passed through the core spirit rune in the center of the life ring behind Shade, and then shone on the back of his head, while also reflecting his head and the life ring itself on the wall.
When Xia De carefully moved his position until his own height and the reflection of the life ring on the wall reached a certain position, the black shadow was fixed on the wall and then gradually turned into a yellow moonlight ring.
Xia De looked at the scene in front of him in surprise, and saw that his shadow on the wall also moved. The shadow was like a figure in a flat picture, standing to the side of the ink stain, but still within the moonlight ring.
The shadow stretched out his finger and pointed at a location on the wall, then tapped three times with his fingers, and then disappeared.
Now you should understand.
"Yes, this method is really hard to find. But it is really interesting."
Holding Mia in one hand, Shad also approached the wall. He looked at the beautiful moonlight ring on the wall, kept the life ring on his back unchanged, and tapped the wall with his fingers.
Boom!
The first sound was indeed hitting the solid wall.
Boom!
The sound of the second knock was slightly different.
Boom!
The third sound hit the surface of the wood.
The yellow moonlight ring formed by the reflection of Xia De's life ring gradually shrank inward on the wall until the yellow ring was embedded in the abrupt palm-sized wooden surface on the wall.
This is a palm-sized brown wooden door, which looks somewhat mysterious after being decorated with glowing rings.
Shade stretched out his hand towards the small door. Seeing Mia's excited expression, he was going to use magic to move objects and force it open. However, he didn't expect that as he stretched out his hand, the left end of the yellow glowing ring remained embedded in the wood, while the right end slowly floated upwards and turned into a pull ring:
"Interesting. It seems that even if we find this small door, we won't be able to open it without the correct method."
He hooked his finger on the pull ring and applied a little force, and the small door was pulled open, revealing a secret compartment embedded in the wall behind it.
And in that secret compartment, the flawless bright yellow gem, facing the thin moonlight behind Xia De, emitted an alluring and dazzling glow.
"oh!"
"Meow!"
The eyes of the man and the cat immediately became blurred.
The empty room without lights on gradually became colorful in front of Shade. He turned around with an uncontrollable giggle and saw dozens of little Mias crawling on the ground.
Looking around again, I saw more and more little Mias rushing in from the door and window of the room. They stood only on their two hind legs, hugged each other in pairs, and danced to the moonlight song coming from nowhere.
“Lots of cats... Lots of cats... ..”
"Would you like to dance, sir?"
Suddenly, he heard a voice from the side. Xia De turned around with a silly smile, and saw a girl with a very good figure, wearing a red dance dress that seemed to be simply wrapped in silk, appeared on his left side. She was wearing a pair of red high heels that revealed her toes painted with red nail polish.
But what makes this girl different is not only her figure and clothes, but also her face. That face is actually the cat face of Mia, but it is enlarged several times.
"Hmm? Oh!"
The extreme shock woke Xia De up immediately. He admitted that Mia was cute, but if Mia's face appeared on a human body, it would be too scary. He only liked innocent girls or innocent cats.
I thought you would like a girl like this.
"That's Professor Manning's hobby!"
Frightened, Shade slowly slid down the wall until he sat on the floor. The powerful chaos spell had a significant impact on him. Even though he was proficient in the power of the moon, he was still not immune to the power of the relic above his head:
"No, I need to slow down a bit."
He gasped and looked at his home, which had returned to normal. The colorful blocks in front of him had disappeared. Then he looked down at the cat he was holding. The cat also looked silly at this time, rubbing its face against Xia De's chest desperately. After being patted by Xia De for a few times, it made a suspicious "meow~" sound, as if it didn't understand why the cat in front of it had suddenly changed.
"Not a very smart look."
Shade commented.
It took him a long time to stand up again, but the secret compartment on the wall had disappeared. So Xia De summoned the life ring again and followed the same steps to make the secret compartment appear. This time, when he pulled the yellow moonlight ring to open the small door, Xia De was fully prepared and did not look inside the compartment.
He reached inside and indeed touched the relic. But inside the small door was not only the orb, but also a letter underneath it.
“You found it!”
The sudden sound startled Shad, and he turned around to see a young man sitting on the windowsill of his house, wearing a big green hat with feathers on it, holding a lyre in his arms, and wearing a smart white shirt, green jacket, flared pants and brown leather boots.
"Congratulations, brave warrior who defeated the devil. You have found the yellow moon that I wanted."
Gently plucking the strings, the bard looked at Shade with a smile:
"So, what kind of reward do you want?"
"Nothing."
Shade said calmly. The bard smiled and shook his head slightly, placing the familiar blue teardrop-shaped crystal on the windowsill.
"The moon is so beautiful, but staring at it for too long can drive people crazy."
He sang softly, and Shad asked:
"You knew from the beginning that this relic was in my house?"
"Yes, I came to this city a hundred years ago and saw with my own eyes what this relic looked like a hundred years ago. The owner a hundred years ago was almost swallowed by this house, but fortunately he ran fast."
His fingers passed over the strings again:
"But I believe that this house now has its true owner."
The bard smiled and sang:
"Brave man, there are greater challenges waiting for you."
Nodding slightly at Xia De:
"I look forward to you writing more great chapters."
His body fell backwards and directly out of the window. Shade did not bother to check the window to see if the bard had landed safely. He knew without thinking that he must have disappeared.
"Thief Jack, the devil, the source of chaos... the third wise pyroxene."
Picking up the teardrop-shaped crystal on the windowsill, Shade turned around and looked at the secret compartment on the wall. This time, he was well prepared before he dared to pull the ring again and look at the round and flawless gem. Relying on his own homologous power and the wisdom of the old god's unstable wise man, Shade managed to stabilize his mind and took the relic out of the secret compartment.
It was indeed a flawless gem, and the bright yellow halo was so tempting. Xia De only dared to look at it for a few seconds before looking away. This item was not something that could be used casually, it was quite dangerous.
Xia De slapped away Mia's outstretched paw, and amid the cat's angry cry, he carefully raised the orb in his hand towards the life ring that appeared again behind him.
The sealed Red Moon Spirit Rune gradually approached the gem in Xia De's hand, and when the two came into direct contact, a clear "crack" sound of shattering appeared in Xia De's ears.
He was delighted, but then he realized that it was not the relic that directly shattered the seal of the Red Moon Spirit Rune, but the relic that caused Xia De's Yellow Moon Spirit Rune to resonate, which in turn triggered the resonance of the core spirit rune Silver Moon.
The two spirit runes called upon the power of the red moon. The red moon spirit rune that was sealed as a price by the sleeping princess trembled slightly, but the seal could not be completely lifted.
Xia De frowned and thought for a while, then took out the letter from the secret compartment, then went to the basement and took out three stone tablets containing the mystery of time.
He went up to the attic again and sat in the center of the Moon Resonance Ritual, which had not yet been cleared.
Three slates were placed around him in a triangle, and the Source of Chaos was thrown out casually, then floated in front of his forehead to illuminate according to its own characteristics.
The life ring emerged from behind, and the bright yellow gem first triggered the resonance of the spirit rune, and then the spirit rune affected the three stone slabs.
Xia De closed his eyes and meditated. Mia stood by the wall and watched him. She watched the silver moonlight radiating from Xia De's body, and the three stone slabs on the ground slowly rise into the air and rotate around him at a constant speed.
The light from the source of chaos spread all over his body, and clear red, silver, and yellow lights appeared on the stone slabs.
In such a peaceful moonlight, the three spiritual runes on the life ring trembled slightly, but the spiritual light of the red moon was the weakest.
But as the moonlight around him grew brighter, with a "click" sound that only Shade himself could hear, the blasphemous spirit rune - Red Moon, finally burst into the light that originally belonged to it.
