During the period of maintaining the false immortal state of the spell, once a more serious injury is suffered, the state will be broken. In order to prevent Mr. Julian from trying to lose his life by biting his tongue, Shade first poured the silver-glowing water in the test tube in his hand on him, and then summoned the chain of sin.
The chain stretched out from the cuffs and wrapped around the young man who fell to the ground. The function of the chains of mortal sin was to restrict a person's mobility, which was not achieved simply by binding. Once the person was entangled by the chains, all the mobility of the body would be affected.
"Iluna, look at his current state, is he affected by the relic?"
Even though he couldn't move, Mr. Julian still stared at the two men with bloodshot eyes, as if he wanted to bite them to death.
"Maybe he was already mad when his sister died. Otherwise, no matter how much you miss her, you shouldn't disturb the dead."
Iluna said, but frowned at Shade's chains again:
"Is this the chain of sin you mentioned? It wasn't obvious in the dark, but now that I'm looking at it from such a close distance under the gaslight, why is this chain so... uh... filthy?"
She couldn't find a better word.
"I am the one who controls the power, not the power that controls me. Don't worry, the darkness will not swallow me."
"I have confidence in you, Shade. I will never distrust you."
Iluna said slowly:
"I just want to say, this chain shouldn't deepen the impact on emotions, right?"
While the two were talking, Mr. Julian, who was already firmly bound with the chains of sin on the ground, turned red in the face and his eyeballs seemed to be about to pop out of their sockets.
He used up all his strength and uttered:
"Annie, come here."
The motionless dead bride under the moonlight by the wall suddenly appeared next to Mr. Julian who was lying on the ground.
In one hand, Shade held the chain extending from his sleeve, and with the other hand, he had already drawn an arc of moonlight in the air. Iluna stood beside Shade, holding a crackling golden sunlight gun:
"Toby Ullian, I advise you not to resist."
The Corpse Bride was severely injured by Shade and now she is no match for the two men.
"Me? Resist?"
The fallen man uttered these words through gritted teeth, while the corpse in a wedding dress, looking peaceful and beautiful, quietly hugged him from behind.
Shade felt like something bad was about to happen:
"not good!"
But it was too late to stop it. They were guarding against the attack of the corpse bride, but they didn't expect that the target of the attack was not them.
In front of Shad and Iluna, the corpse bride Anne Julian held Mr. Julian's head and gently rotated it. Amid the latter's tears of blood and the sound of crisp bones cracking, she turned his head 180 degrees to face her.
Corpse kissed corpse.
All the lights in the house went out at this moment, and the huge mental pressure came like a tsunami. The whispered resentment and murmured resentment kept repeating the anger in Toby Julian's heart.
Shade pointed his silver-shining finger in front of him. Mr. Julian's head had been cut off at some point. The dead bride holding Mr. Julian's head slid towards them in the horrible darkness:
"you... ... "
The ethereal, unreal female voice seemed to come from all directions, and as the corpse bride got closer, the voice became more and more terrifying:
"...will you marry me?"
"Are you kidding me?"
Shade slashed the moonlight forward, but the bride disappeared into the darkness. This was not a spatial ability, the other party really merged into the darkness. This was a unique talent of undead creatures, a high-level ability that blurred the boundary between reality and death.
A cold wind blew past Shad, and it seemed as if something was moving past his side, with no interest in him at all.
“Here!”
Iluna warned loudly. On the side of the two, in the endless darkness, a corpse bride with a white wedding dress and a human head glided out again, emitting white light all over her body:
"Will you marry me?"
This time, Xia De understood that these words were not spoken to him at all, but to Iluna.
"Don't answer that."
Xia De said, gritting his teeth and looking around:
"Iluna, go to the basement downstairs and find the contract. Erase the two names. I will hold her back here."
"May I?"
"When have I not been able to do this?"
Shade appeared behind the corpse bride, slashing with the sword in both hands. As the bride turned around, the second sword summoned by the "Blade of Chaos Space and Time" slashed out almost at the same time.
"I'll be right there."
Iluna ran quickly towards the direction of the original door and soon disappeared in the darkness.
As Iluna disappeared, the piercing scream almost broke Shade's eardrums. The bride, holding the knife in one hand, broke the two swords with one blow, and then disappeared into the darkness again.
The horrible wailing was like the last unwillingness of the dead. She became stronger than before, and killed her ghost marriage partner, which seemed to have brought new changes to the contract.
The bride appeared in front of Shade, but not just in front of him. As far as his eyes could see from the side, dozens of brides with the same look, wearing white wedding dresses and veils and holding Mr. Julian's head, gathered around him. The scene of them gliding forward was silent, but extremely strange. Shade suspected that he would have a nightmare tonight.
His right hand slid from the upper right to the lower left, and then from the upper left to the lower right. The crossed moonlight stopped in front of him, and Shade moved sideways and bumped forward, and the moonlight flew out. The silver glow shattered the corpse that had stretched out its hand to Shade, and the corpse that fell to the ground turned into a cloud of black smoke and disappeared.
"Which one is the real one?"
Xia De asked directly in his mind.
Look to the left, no, more left, yes, that's it.
Xia De stretched out his right hand and pointed upwards:
"moonlight!"
The brilliance of the silver moon burst forth, but it was completely useless to these brides. Shade gritted his teeth:
"Feliana's Witch Light!"
The bright yellow halo spread outward layer by layer. Under Shade's control, the magic did not target the furniture in the room, but only the moving corpses. The halo spread to the surrounding corpses, and the wedding dress melted first, followed by the skin on the surface of the corpses, but it could not continue to melt the deeper muscle tissue. The sharp howls from all the brides made Shade very uncomfortable, but the corpse brides were afraid of the light in Shade's hand and did not move forward.
"Raglai's Leap!"
Shade's figure disappeared again, and then appeared behind the real bride. This time he did not attack, but chains came out of his sleeves at the same time, imprisoning the bride before she melted into the darkness.
Xia De quickly retreated and tightened the chain to make sure the other party couldn't escape. However, the huge force from the chain almost pulled him back.
The bride's illusions disappeared one by one, while the power of the corpse bride grew stronger and stronger. In addition, the head she was holding was laughing loudly, using Mr. Julian's tone to mock Shad's stupidity.
Snap!
It was the sound of a gas lamp being lit, and the room was lit up again. The corpse bride who was wrestling with Shade suddenly collapsed as if she had lost her strength, causing Shade, who was pulling back on the chain, to almost fall to the ground.
Mr. Julian's head rolled on the ground for a few times and finally stopped at Shade's feet. The neck seemed to be cut off by some sharp blade. The head did not close its eyes, but looked up strangely. The blood and tears solidified on the skin of the face, as if frozen by the cold.
"Is it over?"
Shade summoned the Moonlight Greatsword, held the sword with both hands and prepared to pierce the head.
Traces of the elements are disappearing.
He finally breathed a sigh of relief and dropped the sword in his hand.
Soon, Iluna, with blood on her hands and sleeves, returned to the third floor with a piece of parchment that was also stained with blood. Seeing that the lights had returned to normal and the corpse on the ground was no longer moving, she also breathed a sigh of relief.
"Is this it?"
Shade took the blood-stained parchment. The paper itself did not absorb blood, the blood just adhered to it and did not contaminate the words on it. Iluna had somehow cleaned off the two names on the parchment. The black words that originally existed on the parchment, which looked like they were branded with cigarette butts, did not belong to any of the words Shade had learned in the textbook.
"Shad, can you translate this?"
Iluna squatted down to examine the corpse. She had heard from Shad that Shad knew a lot of ancient texts.
"Let me see - I swear on my soul, body and existence that we will be forever entangled with each other until the end of the world. This is the general meaning. There are many words that I can't find the equivalent of in modern times."
After reading this sentence in the common language of Drarion, Shade shuddered violently. This time he did not read the content in his mind with the real pronunciation of these words, otherwise something else would have happened.
"How do we deal with this?"
Shade did not relax.
"I'll take care of it."
Iluna casually threw the head onto the bed beside her, then took out a test tube from her pocket and walked over quickly, pouring a whole test tube of water onto the parchment to dilute the blood.
And when my fingers touched the liquid, the sound in my ears also gave a hint that this was holy water number three.
"No. 3 Holy Water. The church will reimburse you for it anyway, so you don't have to worry about wasting it. My current reimbursement limit is very large."
As she spoke, Iluna very skillfully took out a sun-patterned holy emblem of the old man holding the sun god's lantern. She asked Shade to roll up the parchment, and she used red silk thread to fix the holy emblem and the parchment roll together. The holy emblem was faintly emitting light, but the contract was ordinary and had no reaction.
But this is only a temporary way of storage. It would be safer if relics related to the dead were professionally stored by the church.
“It’s finally over.”
Iluna breathed a sigh of relief and looked at the parchment in Shade's hand in a trance:
"Write the names of two people, let them love each other forever..."
She didn't know what she was thinking, but she quickly shook her head:
"You have to fight for love. People who use this kind of thing are really stupid. It's finally over. I wasted my vacation on something like this."
"Wait, it's not over yet."
Shad raised his hand and handed the parchment to Iluna, then looked towards the door of the room.
"Oh, what's wrong? Can't we have some peace tonight? It's my holiday~"
Iluna turned around helplessly, but saw nothing. Seeing that Shade didn't seem to be joking, she thought for a moment, covered her normal right eye, and only looked in that direction with her left eye created by divinity. Then she actually saw the girl in the dark red plaid skirt, standing there with a sad face.
After a moment's pause, I realized that this was Anne Julian, Anne Julian in soul state.
