The Whispering Verses

Chapter 1247: The land that devours souls

Views:

The soul was already experiencing a strong tingling sensation at this time, because the Night Watcher in Yin Luna's hand was also pointing at him. He was not an evil spirit, but the nature of the mad earth had changed the nature of the soul, and the Night Watcher sensed its malice:

"You only have one chance. Do you know where the missing Mr. Thomas Granger has gone? Where are the correspondence between Mr. Granger and your family hidden?"

After Xia De finished speaking, Yin Luna beside him immediately started counting down:

"Three, two..."

"I don't know where he went! But I know where the letters are! In the cracks in the basement wall, those cursed letters caused us to become like this! Damn Thomas Granger, you will never rest in peace after death!"

The baron cursed loudly, as if he had collapsed, shouting and cursing Mr. Granger continuously.

"Take us to the basement."

Yin Luna said, the 17-year-old girl felt a little regretful. Although she came along, she was not able to play a big role. However, it was a good thing that it went smoothly.

"If we get those letters, we can let you go, but you have to tell the truth afterwards."

Although Yin Luna agreed to this, she would report it to the church later and the church would deal with these souls.

Xia De took back the chains of sin, but did not cancel the light of confinement. Relying on his ability to directly contact the spirit, he carried the bound soul and Yin Luna from the third floor back to the first floor.

During this period, none of the fleeing souls appeared, obviously they were extremely scared of the two.

Ghosts can move through walls in the manor, but Xia De and Yin Luna cannot pass through the collapsed basement entrance. They can only dig helplessly, and with Xia De's witch light, they barely melt a passage for entry and exit.

The basement of the manor was very large, and it actually kept wine barrels and some winemaking equipment. Under the guidance of Baron Farmer, Shade used the moonlight lit by his fingertips to find the faded letter in the crack of the east wall. The crack was actually a hole in the wall. In addition to the letter, there were also some jewelry and coins. Shade and Yin Luna took them out and found a dried baby's body in the innermost part.

Of course, it could also be the body of an aborted baby, which could not be identified after such a long time. The body was lying in a pool of black mud, and when Shade tried to pull the body out, the black mud actually began to wriggle:

"So that's it. The source of the crazy land is here!"

He retracted his hand, raised his sword and stabbed into the wall. However, the black mud quickly wrapped around the body, and the body immediately "melted" into the cracks in the wall.

Before Yin Luna and Xia De could react, the corpse emerged from the ground under the feet of the bound baron and quickly climbed onto his back.

With five consecutive crisp sounds, the five silver halos all shattered into pieces. The Baron's soul began to harden and petrify, and like the corpse on his back, he melted into the soil under his feet. Even though the Sunlight Gun that followed closely blasted a large hole in the ground, it could not catch up with him.

"Let him get away!"

"It doesn't matter. He can't leave the confines of the manor."

Xia De carefully put away the letters whose paper had become brittle:

"It's time to wrap up. I've seen the source of the pollution. I can cast a spell to purify the land here. Let's go to the courtyard. The other party won't allow us to purify the land. It will come to us on its own initiative."

The two returned from the mansion to the courtyard on a winter night. When they passed the corridor on the first floor, many ghosts hiding in the dark poked their heads out of the surrounding walls and looked at them, as if countless heads were hung on the wall. They tried to stop the two from leaving, but they obviously didn't have the courage, so they could only watch the two people climb out of the window.

After returning to the courtyard, in order to avoid making too much noise and being discovered by the ring warlocks in the church camp by the lake, they returned to the dilapidated angel fountain at the back of the courtyard.

The night wind was cold, but the stars were bright. Xia De tightened his collar and handed the night watchman to Yin Luna:

"I'll cast the purification spell, Yin Luna, it's up to you this time."

As he said this, he smiled at the 17-year-old girl. Yin Luna nodded with a stern face, and she had already made up her mind that even if she had to destroy the entire manor, she would never disturb Xia De's spell.

This has nothing to do with justice or evil, madness or order, it's just that the innocent girl wants to show herself. Destroying those souls has nothing to do with the souls themselves.

Xia De crushed the normal soil that he had prepared, and after the surrounding light was all focused on him in an instant, the clay holy grail filled with ochre-colored spiritual energy had taken shape.

It was the first time that Yin Luna saw Xia De use this spell. Feeling the majestic and warm power of the earth, she vaguely felt that she seemed to understand something:

"When I was training in the Church, my teacher said that my talent for the power of the earth was also excellent, but not as good as that for the sun."

But now is obviously not a good opportunity to feel the power. When the Holy Grail of Earth entered the ground beneath his feet and the gushing spiritual energy covered all directions, the things in the manor house finally felt something.

The three-story mansion in the darkness seemed to flicker for a moment under the starry sky. As dark clouds from nowhere floated over again to cover the moon, a layer of pale green light covered the surface of the manor's walls. Screams were heard almost immediately from the mansion. The souls were encountering something extremely terrible.

Five blue Wise Pyroxenes floated out of Yin Luna's pocket and hovered above her head in an arc. As her eyes were about to shine, she saw the dark power gathering to a terrifying degree in the window on the third floor.

The wind suddenly swept up the black dust, obscuring the view. Under Yin Luna's serious gaze, the black mud first flowed out from the window behind the banquet hall on the third floor, and then burst out like a waterfall. The black mud formed in the air, and a giant black mud snake opened its huge mouth from the third floor window and pounced on the two people on the ground. On the body of the giant black snake, the stiff faces of hundreds of souls in the manor that the two people had just seen were clearly wrapped.

The screaming sound almost pierced the eardrums. The giant black mud snake was thicker than Xia De and Yin Luna’s waists combined.

Behind the seventeen-year-old girl, the life ring turned into a dark golden scale. She raised the sword in her hand and pointed it at the snake:

"Command - Still!"

The dark golden scales radiated light, and the black mud in the air stood still for a second as if time had stopped. Then, what greeted them was a torrent of azure light:

"The light of wisdom!"

The five Wise Pyroxenes suspended above Yin Luna's head emitted a torrent that was strong enough to penetrate the soul. The azure glow gathered into a stream and hit the black mud snake that was sticking out of the mansion head-on. In an instant, blue light fragments and splashing mud splashed in all directions. Under the influence of the power of the Chosen One, the black mud retreated step by step.

"Sunshine Gun!"

The exploding golden lightning spear flew out of his hand, piercing through the blue light stream, and exploded at the front end of the black mud, completely shattering the front half of the black mud snake. The black mud scattered, and the manor itself let out a long howl like a dream, even making Shade, who was controlling the spell, worried that it would disturb the Orthodox Church on the lakeshore.

But it was not over yet. The black mud scattered in the courtyard gathered together automatically, as if it was giving birth to another monster. But this time Yin Luna would not give them a chance. The power of the "Eye of Death" obtained by the Chosen One of Death made her divine left eye glow slightly. The concept of death changed the appearance of everything in her vision, but it also allowed Yin Luna to see the only weakness of the squirming black mud.

He rushed forward quickly with the sword in one hand, and the color of sunlight covered the blade of the Night Watcher's sword, which was quite similar to the prototype of the high-level magic sunlight greatsword.

The black mud wanted to counterattack Yin Luna, but before it could get close to her, it was evaporated by the light marks around her. Under balance, all things are equal. Yin Luna doesn't care who her opponent is. As long as she finds a weakness, there is no enemy that cannot be killed.

With a wave of his hand, the sword swung down, and the golden sword shadow evaporated the black mud into two pieces, revealing the dried corpse of the baby wrapped in the center.

The corpse trembled under the high-heat sword light, but was eventually nailed to the ground by the Night Watcher. The black mud tried to approach and assimilate the metal sword, but was driven away by the power of the angel-level relic that specifically restrained evil and negative energy.

The black mud completely dispersed, like black rain, scattered all over the courtyard. The half-petrified souls rolled out of the black mud as if they were escaping for their lives, but they could no longer escape back to the house.

Once in contact with the black mud, the petrification process is irreversible. The great witch Miss Benannis was cursed just by feeling the breath of the crazy earth. These simple souls are naturally unable to resist the power of the crazy earth.

The power of the chosen one suppressed the black mud, and the night watchman completely destroyed the baby's mummy. The gushing earth-yellow spiritual energy finally covered every corner of the courtyard. The black mud gradually melted in the spiritual energy, and the baron's soul, which only had a normal head left, also appeared in the deepest part of the black mud.

The clay holy grail emerged from the ground in front of Shade. This time the cup was not big, at least not as big as the one obtained from the "Saint Perry Cemetery". The rune on the cup was sweet, and Shade would have to experiment with it after returning home to find out its specific effect.

He walked towards Yin Luna holding the still glowing cup, and together with her, they looked at the Baron who was struggling to say something. Shade did not give the other party a chance to speak, and directly stretched out his hand and pressed on the spirit's shoulder. The petrified soul felt soft like sand:

"Guide to death!"

The soul wanted to resist, but was forced to show Shade his most precious memory. The images flooded into Shade's mind, and scenes of past memories flashed through his head quickly.
