The Whispering Verses

Chapter 1480: Night Road

Views:

The basement where we are now is also a very small "crazy land". The distortion here is the opposite of gravity. That is, after entering the basement, we must stand on the ceiling of the basement and fight against the earth element giants that are not affected by the crazy land.

"So why are these building materials not affected by the crazy earth?"

Because they themselves are part of the distortion.

The voice in her ear whispered, and Yin Luna muttered a Tobesk slang to complain about her misfortune. She tried to move a few times in the dark to make sure she had no broken bones, and luckily she lay down in the gap between the construction waste:

"Looks like I have to dig it out myself. If I had known earlier, I should have asked Luvia for divination in advance. Maybe I could have avoided this bad luck."

Although the house collapsed and directly crushed the basement, the inversion of gravity still existed. Therefore, it was more accurate to say that Yin Luna was floating upside down in the gap rather than lying on the ground.

"Thaumatology - Echo Chasing."

Yin Luna closed her eyes and gently tapped the bricks at hand. After a few seconds of exciting echoes, she constructed a simple three-dimensional diagram of the surrounding area in her mind:

"I'm lucky. As long as I push this big stone slab away, I can get out."

She tried to move her body, first trying to push upwards, and then she found that her normal posture was still pushing downwards in her subconscious mind, which made it quite inconvenient to exert force.

So, Yin Luna put her hands on the real ground, then raised her feet and kicked the huge stone slab above her in an upside-down position.

Various magics added the effect of enhancing strength, and Yin Luna stretched out her legs in an inverted position. In the process of exerting force, she actually felt that she was holding up the ground and doing simple squats. Then, with the sound of scattered bricks and stones rolling down from above, the stone slab under her legs began to slowly move upwards.

This was a very novel feeling for Yin Luna. She maintained an inverted posture. Because of the opposite force of gravity, it was as if she was holding up the earth, using the power of the earth to move the heavy objects under her feet:

“Is this the power of the earth?”

At this moment, she did not directly come into contact with any extraordinary power belonging to the earth. Just by relying on the movement of standing upside down, she felt a very extraordinary feeling in her heart.

His hands hold up the earth, just like the Titans in ancient legends who assisted the ancient gods in creating the world, as if holding up the entire world.

Yin Luna felt dazed for a moment, and then she heard the sound of digging coming from above her feet. It was obvious that her teammates outside were also trying to dig themselves out:

"Luckily, Shad isn't here. If he had seen me in such a mess... I don't know if he has returned from Oxenfurt Manor. I'll have to confirm later whether Luvia has given me any new instructions."

With both hands pressed on the flat ground, he continued to lift the huge stone slab upwards with his legs:

"Thaumatology - photosynthesis."

First, a ball of light representing the power of the sun emerged from her chest, illuminating the small space. Then, a pale green light appeared from her hands that were "holding up" the earth, and quickly spread to the surroundings.

This is the magic that Yin Luna learned from the thirteenth ring magician of the Church of Nature, the "Dream Witch" Miss Maria, after the Battle of Pantanal. Its essence is to absorb the power of the sun like a plant, and restore the physical strength and spirit of the ring magician. It is one of the core magic of the Church of Nature.

When this magic fell into the hands of Yin Luna, who was good at the power of the sun, and was influenced by the power of "balance", it evolved into a plant-like ability that absorbed the power of the sun and the earth at the same time, and could even promote the growth of surrounding plants.

Sure enough, as the magic was used, the sense of strength of the body became stronger. So, grasping the subtle feeling of holding up the earth, Yin Luna almost completely straightened her body and stood upside down in the collapsed basement.

The image of "hanging upside down" itself has important significance in mysticism, not to mention that whether it is the card face of "Impermanence and Balance" or the ritual of balancing the chosen, they are all closely related to "hanging upside down".

For a moment, Yin Luna felt that she understood something. Miracles and enlightenment elements slowly accumulated on the life ring in her soul. She tried to connect this with the new magic she had recently tried to develop, but unfortunately the accumulation was insufficient, and she was not yet fully satisfied with the key points of a new magic.

At the same time, she also heard voices coming from "under her feet", and it was obvious that her teammates had also dug nearby.

“It’s still very simple.”

The young girl said to "her" to her own amusement, and in the midst of "her" light laughter, she suddenly heard a rustling sound coming from nearby.

In the dim light, she turned her head slightly and saw that the gravel on the ground beside her was shaking abnormally. Of course, with Yin Luna's inverted posture at this time, this was what was happening "above her head":

"Another earthquake? I finally managed to push it open... No, the ground isn't shaking..."

Then, as Yin Luna was shocked, the green bud that was bent by the stone "pushed away" the stone, and the flower buds bloomed. In the reflection of the brown-haired girl's eyes, the blue and white flowers bloomed beside her ears at a slow speed visible to the naked eye.

"Randall Flowers?"

At the moment when the flower buds bloomed, Yin Luna Emilia Beyath seemed to hear the sound of new power sprouting in her heart.

(Little Mia is running...)

"Professor Danister, there is news from the Church of the Sun in the city. The first Randall flower has bloomed."

On the outskirts of the city, in Elderon Tahiti, the light of the bonfire illuminated the simple camp built with magic. The camp was next to the stream flowing in the stream. Although it was snowing heavily, the stream was not frozen due to the influence of geothermal heat.

After another battle, the team of 12 people is resting.

The 12-member team was led by Miss Danister, the "Red Moon Witch", a thirteenth-ring warlock from St. Byrons Comprehensive College. Other members included two high-ring professors from St. Byrons, two twelfth-ring warlocks from the Church of Peace, and seven other middle-ring warlocks.

The group was at one of the seven possible locations where the Chosen Ceremony was held, which was one of the two places that Shad had not been to. Although Shad had never been to this area, it was actually very close to the Saint Perry Cemetery and the place where he had met the elf girl Emilia several times.

It just looks a little far away because of the sparse forests and the complex terrain of the river valley.

Except for Miss Danister, the other four high-ring warlocks in the team are all twelfth-ring warlocks, and the remaining seven middle-ring warlocks are not combat-capable, but are responsible for logistical work such as liaising with the city and exploring the terrain.

In addition to them, there are several ring warlock teams led by high-ring warlocks around this area, responsible for clearing out the earth elemental creatures and the fossil monsters that have been revived by the madness of the earth.

At this time, the previous round of fighting had just ended. Around the camp, broken black rocks covered the gray snow surface, fire shot up to the sky in the east, the skeleton of a fossil dragon lay in the thawed stream in the southeast, and Miss Danister was playing with an interesting stone found in the monster's body:

"The Randall flower bloomed? When did it happen?"

She asked the seventh-ring warlock from the Church of the Sun who had long curly black hair and very fair skin. The lady who looked to be in her thirties immediately answered:

"About half an hour ago, the Chosen One of Balance witnessed its opening. The flower has now been sent to the Prophet's Association. The fortune tellers believe that although the flower's opening process was stimulated by supernatural power, it was originally a power of the earth, so it can be considered a natural opening. As an important witness during this special period, the blooming and withering of the flower can represent the overall health of the Randall Valley tonight. After the fortune tellers finish their divination, they will send it to the Sun Church for continuous observation."

"Professor, according to the enlightenment received by the Chosen Ones of Balance and the information shared by the witches of the Witch Council, the Guardian will appear one and a half hours after the first Randall flower blooms."

The person who spoke was not Professor Lemar or Professor Mason, whom Shad was familiar with. It was an old lady with twelve rings wearing a brooch that looked like the St. Byron's school emblem and holding a relic that looked like a compass in her hand.

"There's still an hour left."

The sorceress casually threw away the stone she was playing with, and looked up at the monster with four wings spread out flying overhead. Then, the twelve-ring sorceress of the Peace Church took off into the air and chased after it, while Miss Danister continued:

"There is definitely a great witch in this area. During the incident of the Chosen Ones of the Earth, the Witch Council knew too much, sometimes even more than the Church combined. They even hinted that they would be the ones to deal with the local ancient evil spirits. If I didn't know that these women don't like to come into contact with men, I would even suspect..."

She looked around and saw that most people in the camp were busy with their work. For the time being, only Professor Anna Bell from the School of Astronomy was listening to her.

"I even doubt whether the Witch Council has sought help from the 'God Summoner'. It is hard for me to imagine what kind of reward they would pay to the God Summoner... ...themselves?"

Although Professor Bell looked old, her blue eyes were bright. She smiled kindly and responded to the jokes of the college librarian:

"Professor Danister, no one can determine the gender of the God Caller right now. Yes, most of the time, his or her silhouette is seen as a man, but that doesn't mean anything. Even the most skilled fortune teller in the Prophet's Association cannot know his or her gender, and this is already the most basic information about the 'God Caller'."
