MTL - Whispering Verse-Chapter 28 Remnants of the Old Gods

Satisfied, Xia De planned to turn around and leave after receiving information that had nothing to do with him in a very safe situation, and planned to tell Dr. Schneider what he had learned today.

But at this moment, the woman's elegant whispering voice sounded in my ears again:

[You have come into contact with 'Enlightenment'. 】

He stopped in his tracks and frowned. The [Enlightenment] element is related to civilization, but strong traces of thaumaturgy and spells may also cause it to appear, but here...

Standing in the narrow space between the pipe and the wall, because this is a dead corner, there is no garbage, but there are more animal feces.

Xia De carefully looked at the wall in front of him. The wall was almost covered with chalk and paint all kinds of dirty words and shapes representing private organs. Besides, there were many strange traces that he didn't want to imagine.

The only two spiritual runes he has do not have the effect of enhancing eyesight for the time being, but what really sets him apart from ordinary people is his ability to decipher almost all characters.

Below the insulting sentence, higher than Shad's waist, some strange patterns were caught by the eyes of the young detective. He regarded it as words, and sure enough, he got the meaning and pronunciation of those words:

"appear."

The ancient language used a full six syllables to express such a simple meaning.

In the thin mist, a white light flashed in front of Xia De. He stepped back, but still kept himself between the pipe and the wall.

The curious cat was awakened by the white light, while the person holding it saw a dilapidated stone statue slowly rising from the ground.

Its base is square, and the statue is only half the height of Shad. It is an image of an aristocratic man with bat wings and a cloak.

Xia De closed his eyes, letting blood and tears overflow from under his eyelids. He covered the cat's eyes, turned quickly, and heard a whisper in his ear, a whisper of joy, reciting a story he had never told:

[You have come into contact with the remnants of the old **** "Vampire Duke Rael". 】

[Old gods born from the first filthy blood, thirsty for blood, and crazy because of blood. In the dusk of the old days, he developed his family with the curse of blood, blinded his soul by the curse of blood, and roared in the depths of the castle in the dark night. 】

[You have listened to the story of the old **** "Vampire Duke Lauel", and you have learned one of the miracles of the old **** "Vampire Duke Lauel". 】

"Can you engrave spiritual runes?"

A moment later, after confirming that there was only this information, Xia De, who came out of surprise, asked in a low voice full of expectation, and the headache caused by the close contact with the statue of the old **** was relieved.

Later, Xia De heard the woman's voice chuckling in his heart:

[You have acquired the spell, Echo of Blood. You haven't got enough stories of this god, outsider, and miracles are not so easy to come by. 】

The whispering voice in his heart fell silent, and the statue of the old **** conveyed new power to Xia De. The life ring hidden behind the soul rotates, absorbing a little golden element, making the brass ring stained with gold particles, and condensing the spirit that belongs to the soul.

Xia De's right eye suddenly turned blood red, and he gained the power to see the imperceptible residual blood.

After fully understanding what happened at this moment, Xia De did not check the power he had obtained first, but first checked the cat in his arms.

Although the cat and Shad saw the whole process of the appearance of the statue of the old god, fortunately, the cat's sight was attracted by the scattered white light at that time, so it did not observe all the appearance of the statue of the old **** at the same time as Shad appearance. Therefore, apart from being a little sluggish, "Mia" did not suffer a mental shock like Xia De.

As for the power that Xia De gained, to put it simply, his right eye can now see the imperceptible blood stains left on the air and the surface of objects when the spell is actively activated.

This ability can also be achieved through certain technological means in Shade's world. But when he used spells, he didn't need any equipment, he only needed to open his eyes, and as long as there was still blood left, no matter how faint it was, he could see it.

Although this is not a powerful ability, it unexpectedly matches Shade's detective career very well.

Xia De has never heard of the name of the old **** "Vampire Duke Lauel", in fact he has never heard of any name of the old **** except for the "Father of the Infinite Tree".

The story of this old **** makes him sound like an unlikely good god. This judgment is completely correct, so after obtaining the spell and the story, the voice in his head also reminded Shad that he is in contact with the silver element [blasphemy], which is an element only evil gods have.

But maybe it’s because he doesn’t have a deep understanding of the old god’s [blasphemy], or the power of this stone statue with a base is more of a [miracle], Xia De didn’t gain anything from [blasphemy].

But the harvest of incantations is also very good. Incantations do not need to be used through elemental spirit runes, and are common mystical abilities for ring warlocks. Although it is "universal", in fact, some spells also have usage restrictions. Judging from the doctor's notes, the spells obtained through contact with the remnants of the old gods usually cannot be learned through other methods.

Therefore, Xia De also cast a rare spell for no reason, but unfortunately the effect is not very obvious. UU reading www.uukanshu.com

Now that the benefits have been obtained, the next step is of course to leave immediately.

Shad couldn't take the statue of the old **** with him, he didn't even dare to touch it directly with his skin. The existence of the stone statue is obviously related to Mrs. La Soya, and the statue of the old **** cannot exist naturally in the city. It must be the other party who brought it to hide in this alley.

Bringing the statue of the evil **** into the city like this is a serious illegal act, so Xia De finally judged that Mrs. La Soya is not a good person.

So he read the six syllables of the ancient text meaning "appearance" in reverse order, causing the statue of the evil **** to slowly enter the ground again.

Then he carefully slipped away from the alley, and without even caring about saving money, boarded the carriage directly at the next intersection, took the cat without any hesitation, and set off for Dr. Schneider's psychological clinic located in the eastern district of Tobesk City.

But unfortunately, Dr. Bill Schneider was not in the clinic.

The people in the clinic also knew Xia De who was invited by the doctor yesterday, so Dr. Clay, who was in charge of receiving him, informed Dr. Schneider of his whereabouts.

The wife and daughter of an unnamed earl in this city have recently suffered from bulimia. The earl's personal doctor thought it was a psychological problem, so he specially invited Dr. Schneider to come for diagnosis and treatment. Dr. Schneider will spend the night in the viscount's manor outside the city, at least he won't be back today.

As for the address of the manor and the surname of the viscount, in order to protect the privacy of the patients, Shade cannot be told.

"But Mr. Hamilton, you can leave a note for Bill, and he'll see it when he gets back."

Dr. Clay said kindly, but he firmly refused to disclose the location of the Earl's Manor.
