MTL - Whispering Verse-Chapter 1544 Thaumatology - Shadow Ball

Miss Daniste did not show the letter to Shad, but said seriously:

"On that letter, there is a pattern of the sun, moon, and stars that I found in the open space at the end of the Temple of Darkness in the Randall Valley. But there is only this pattern in the letter, and the content of the letter does not explain it. "

Xia De frowned slightly:

"So, the Edwards family in Green Lake Town is the so-called ring magician family that inherits the ancient tradition?" "Probably not."

Miss Denist shook her head slightly:

"I also just got this clue last week. According to my investigation of the Edwards family, they are just ordinary people's families. However, mortals always have all kinds of insatiable pursuits. The current evidence shows that that The family was trying to obtain the elixir of life before the destruction of Green Lake Town in the middle of the lake."

Ordinary people who don't know anything and don't have any talent to delve into the occult often cause quite a lot of trouble. Among them, the purpose of studying the occult most often appears to be "psychic or even resurrection of dead relatives/loved ones" and "seeking a longer life." Gaining more money and gaining more power is, on the contrary, a rare occurrence.

In fact, seeking immortality is also the research topic of many ring warlocks. "Immortality" in the true sense cannot be achieved, but if you just want a longer lifespan, you can achieve it with methods such as "refining elixir with the Philosopher's Stone". In addition, some special potions and relics can prolong life. Even gaining part of the witch's power can directly prolong life, and the "Youth" gold cup that Xia De gave to Miss Galina can also be formulated with a certain sense of "elixir of life" according to the witch's research.

Thinking about these things, Xia De raised his eyebrows:

"So, the Edwards family's pursuit of the elixir of life is related to the destruction of Green Lake Town?" "Yes."

The sorceress replied very seriously:

"The small town in the middle of the lake has been surrounded by white mist that lingers all year round, but even the church can't confirm what happened that year. The college doesn't have much records about it. After all, there are many more dangerous things on the Old Continent. Yes."

She looked into Shad's eyes:

"Shad, I want to give you a mission. I know that you have deep connections among the nobles of Delarion and Carson Rico. I need you to investigate all the Edwards who left Green Lake Town that year. Descendants of the Edwards family members, yes, regardless of surname change, regardless of gender and age, and whether they are ordinary people or not, I need you to help me collect that list. And I will investigate the Edwards family from another angle, don’t you also Want to help me find a teacher? Shade, this is the first step."

"By investigating the descendants of the Edwards family, to determine the origin of the sun, moon and stars pattern? No problem, when will I get the list?"

Shad asked.

"Before summer comes. It is not clear how many descendants of the Edwards family there are. Green Lake town was destroyed more than a hundred years ago. That family has been multiplied for at least three generations, and the number of descendants may not be small, so It's going to be a hassle to investigate. Oh, and if you need funding, just ask me for it, I won't let you do it with your own money."

"You don't need to worry about that, I still... have some money."

When saying this sentence, an inexplicable sense of satisfaction filled the hearts of foreigners. The sorceress smiled and shook her head:

"That doesn't allow you to spend this money. Although you are asked to complete the investigation before the arrival of summer, it is best to report to me immediately after you have any clues. This will facilitate our two investigations together."

"No problem, I will start to investigate tomorrow, and I hope to have results soon...Please allow me to ask a question, Miss Daniste, have you ever been to that deserted town to conduct field investigations ?”

He asked again, and Miss Dennister naturally didn't mind his question:

"I'm glad for your sensitivity, but unfortunately, I can't go there for the time being. The current situation in the material world..." She considered her own sentence:

"After the Battle of Randall Valley, more and more people and things were involved

in the Epic of the Chosen. The current situation is very complicated. As a Warlock of the Thirteenth Ring, I don't need to appear in other places. This may cause unnecessary suspicion. "

Xia De nodded in understanding:

"So, do you need me to go to Green Lake Town to take a look?" Miss Daniste gave him a surprised look:

"I don't need it for the time being, I will send someone to look at it. After all, it has been more than a hundred years. I am actually pessimistic about what is left. Don't run around casually. You have been promoted to the sixth ring. For a young man like you who has the potential to become a thirteen-ring magician, the road is less than halfway."

She brought up Shad's academic problems again:

"The upgrade exam is not allowed in the summer, but I will make a special case for you to take the upgrade exam in the summer like last year. You are in the fourth grade now? Then in the summer, skip a grade to take the fourth and fifth grade exams. In addition, I have some books here, after you go back in a while, I will pass them to you through the pages of poem manuscripts, and you need to submit a reading note every week."

She assigned tasks to Xia De:

"I know your life is not easy, but if you can, I hope you can meet with me every week, or every two weeks, or every month, like now, to talk about your learning experience, which is also convenient for me. I know whether my only student has worked hard or not."

"OK."

Xia De could only nod, and then thought about what he should report.

"Also, as your teacher, I should give you a gift to celebrate your promotion to the sixth ring." A roll of parchment tied with a black ribbon floated in front of Xia De, and then floated back:

"Thaumaturgy [Shadow Ball], corresponding to [Shadow] [Darkness] [Negative Energy] [Corrosion] and other spirit runes, all four elements can be learned. Since the last spirit rune of your fifth ring is [Shadow], I think This should work for you."

[Shadow Ball] is a fairly basic thaumaturgy. Of course, although it is basic, it is also very useful. The effect of the thaumaturgy is fairly simple, a black sphere of shadows is gathered in the hand and thrown to cause havoc. At the same time, if this kind of sphere keeps not throwing, it will slowly absorb the surrounding light, causing the area where it is located to be in darkness.

"Your way is the moon and time and space. The shadow can be merged with the [moon], but that's not what you should be in contact with now. Therefore, although the ring magician system with "shadow" as the core is very tempting, I will not It is recommended that you learn it, because it is not necessary. As for the [Shadow] spirit rune, if you are interested, you can find some other thaumaturgy to learn about, but don't waste too much time and thought on it, the moon is your way .May March guide you, Shad."

Miss Dennist reminded, Shade nodded and remembered her words, and then got up to leave. (Mia is running...)

The news of the "Ring of Tobesk City Spring Riding Competition" has become the most concerned news of the citizens since Shade was bedridden and recuperated last week. Although this event is held every year, it still does not dampen the interest of the steam-age bourgeoisie who lack entertainment means.

This year's opening ceremony is scheduled for this week's Sunday, which is the thirtieth day of the month of the wind. Before that, Xia De temporarily fell into a state of having nothing to do.

Of course, foreigners don't really waste their time with nothing to do. He learned the thaumaturgy [Shadow Ball] on Tuesday, because it was a very basic thaumaturgy, so there were no accidents during the learning process.

However, under the influence of the "distorted origin of the earth" that Shade had devoured, thaumaturgy was immediately sublimated the moment he successfully learned it. According to "her", and Shade's test when he went to the sacrificial field on the top of the mountain to practice with Sister Devlin, the thaumaturgy [Shadow Ball] associated with the miracle spirit rune "Shadow of the Moon" has the characteristic of "petrification" .

In other words, once hit by this thaumaturgy, non-stone substances will immediately enter a petrified state. Although this petrified state is not as effective as those black mud, it is enough to use in battle.

In addition to learning thaumaturgy, UU Reading www.uukanshu.com On Wednesday, Xia De received another commission to find a cat.

Of course, he did not forget the task given by Miss Daniste, so he wrote to Margaret, Rezia, and Miss Galina, asking them about the "Edwards Family in Green Lake Town" respectively.

It will take about a week for Margaret to reply to her letter from Willendale City, and if she wants to get detailed information, she may have to wait even longer. As for the two ladies of the Cavendish family, they quickly gave Xia De the news.

In the message sent by the maid, Miss Galina said that she would help find it as soon as possible, but she had absolutely no understanding of this unknown and fallen nobleman. And Rezia's letter didn't mention Shade asking her to help at all. She just asked Shade to go to the opera together later on Thursday.

"Watching an opera" is Rezia's favorite code for dating Xia De, and of course Xia De understands what this means.

Xia De found that even if he was rarely idle, time still passed quite quickly. From receiving the commission to find a cat on Wednesday to finishing the commission on Thursday afternoon, and then using my commission fee to pay the garbage disposal fee in the neighborhood, it was only a blink of an eye.

Reading and studying every day, or going to the basement to configure potions and make alchemy items make life extremely fulfilling.

In the blink of an eye, it was Thursday night, and Xia De had an early dinner with the cats at home. Seeing that the lazy cat was unwilling to go out, he boarded the carriage at the door alone at seven o'clock and entered the Maria Opera House at seven twenty.
