Whispering Verse
Chapter 997: missing witches
"Is there something wrong?"
The cold fog shrouded the lake, and Xia De, who continued to move forward, suddenly asked in his heart.
[Yes, the first two times, they have already thrown the rope at you. 】
At this time, Xia De had already seen the blurred scene of the edge of the island in the middle of the lake through the fog, but the witches did not throw the rope that led him to the island. The group of red butterflies that turned the white mist into red continued to move forward, and Xia De didn't even see the light of the campfire:
"Could it be that my direction of landing on the island is wrong?"
But [Father of the Infinite Tree] has always made him appear in the same place every time, and this time there should be no exception.
The butterfly turned into Xia De again on the lake, and before the dots of red lights disappeared, Xia De squinted his eyes and looked at the edge of the island not far away. He could vaguely see the scenery on the edge of the island in the center of the lake, the extinguished bonfire, the camp surrounded by simple fences, tents and living supplies.
When the fog finally broke through the lake and landed on the island, Shad finally confirmed that there were not any witches in the camp, and they were all gone.
The camp did not look like it had been abandoned for a long time. It was not completely integrated with the scenery of the island in the middle of the lake, and there were quite obvious traces of human life. When Xia De stretched out his hand to the charcoal in the bonfire, he could even feel the warmth in his frozen hand. It's just that the bonfire itself is not a normal flame, so it's impossible to judge the time when Miss Violet and her party left from the temperature.
"Aren't the six maids, the Witch Emperor, and the prospective graduates of the Higher Medical College of Serkses not here?"
The island is not completely safe. When Xia De came for the first time, he encountered a big guy who fell from the sky with the eight witches. The second time, he heard that the witches and their party encountered wildly growing plants. So at this time, Xia De was not particularly surprised to find that they were not there, but he just hoped that these ladies would be safe.
He warmed up for a while with the lingering warmth of the campfire, then searched the camp for any clues left by the witches before they left. Just as Xia De thought, Miss Violet really expected that he might return at any time, so she left a note for him and pressed it in the tent with a gold brick.
As for why Miss Violet had a gold brick in her luggage when she was traveling, this is beyond Shade's comprehension.
【Try not to leave the camp, we will be back. 】
It is not stated what danger they encountered, nor where they went. Xia De has seen their handwriting in the witch's paper, so he can confirm that it was indeed written by Miss Violet. Those letters were very scribbled, and the group of eight must have been in a hurry when they left.
Combined with the inspection outside, it was found that they did not take too many living supplies, and it was a very sudden accident to want to evacuate the camp.
"But I don't have time to wait, half an hour is over in the blink of an eye."
Xia De put away the note, bent out of the tent, and looked at the island surrounded by white mist. There were a few hard thorn bushes on the island the last time I was here, and nothing seemed to have changed this time, at least not around the campsite.
"Let's go find them."
Thinking in his heart, he pulled out the moonlight sword from the air with his right hand, and the holy silver sword body glowed hazy in the fog. Taking another look at the deserted camp, Shad jumped over the crude fence.
【careful! 】
Landing and stabbing the sword into the ground at the same time:
"Sign of Heaton!"
The dazzling golden spherical shield bloomed in the mist, and the silent and invisible attack touched the shield, forming a ripple on the shield.
"Silver Moon!"
The moment the shield disappeared, a silver blade of light slashed forward to the left. The silver moon slash obviously hit something in the air, and then "she" reminded Xia De that the enemy had disappeared. And from the beginning to the end, Xia De failed to see what attacked him.
"An invisible enemy?"
He walked through the mist and walked quickly to the position where the "Silver Moon Slash" hit the enemy just now. He kicked the ground a few times but didn't touch anything. Then he bent down and tried to touch it with his hands, but he still didn't touch anything. thing.
"It's really weird. The enemy is a monster that can't be seen or heard, has no trace when it attacks, and doesn't leave a corpse after death? So, am I really not fighting an illusion?"
Xia De thought silently in his heart, but "her" perception could not be wrong. Enemies do have physicality, they just cannot be perceived by any means other than a sixth sense. Although this characteristic will make the battle very troublesome, the attack power and defense of this monster are not strong. As long as the opponent's position is determined, it can basically kill with one hit.
"The Lost Lake region suppresses perception. I just came here from a normal environment. This kind of suppression has little effect on me, but Miss Violet and the others have lived here for a long time."
The soil on the island in the middle of the Lost Lake was very soft, and the witches left very clear footprints on the ground when they left in a hurry. So Xia De followed the footprints and walked towards the hazy foggy island, but the footprints were not continuous, and sometimes disappeared abruptly for a certain distance, but fortunately, the traces of the thorn bushes they broke were obvious, so Xia De You also don't have to worry about getting lost in the fog, or getting "fogged" from prolonged exposure to the fog.
The real danger was the invisible enemies. They were not many in number, and Shad only encountered them four times in the rest of his journey.
The counterattack process after encountering the enemy is also very simple. First, "she" perceives the attack faster than Shad, then Shad stabs the sword into the ground under his feet and uses the "Sign of Heaton", and finally attacks with the silver moon in the gap after the attack The enemy is a complete counterattack process.
Even when it was attacked for the last time, due to the bursting timing of the golden spherical shield of the "Sign of Heaton", it happened to be the moment when the invisible attack touched the shield. When the special effect of thaumaturgy is triggered, the shattered shield shoots golden light streaks around, and the bursting streamer directly kills the invisible enemy.
The opponent's defense was weaker than Xia De thought.
Moving forward at a very fast speed, in the seventh minute when Xia De came to the Lost Lake, he saw a shadowy figure in front of him. Continue to move forward along the footprints, and after getting closer, it turns out that there are Miss Teresa and five maids except the head maid.
They were not hallucinations. Six people stood in a circle among the thorn bushes, each looking in one direction. The first thing the witches saw was the glowing moonlight sword in Xia De's hand, and then they saw Xia De's figure walking in the fog.
In order to prevent being suspected, Xia De waved the gold brick in his hand:
"it's me!"
He kept his voice down as much as possible so as not to disturb other existences on the island. But the mist itself absorbs sound, so the witches could only see Shade opening his mouth. Fortunately, they recognized what was in Xia De's hand.
Xia De also couldn't hear the voices of the witches, but it could be seen from their expressions that they were very nervous. Miss Teresa was making a warning gesture to him. Along the way, Xia De's direct perception of that invisible monster was also rapidly increasing. At this time, without "her" reminding, Xia De noticed that there were at least 6 people nearby. An invisible monster is patrolling.
"Although we can't see them directly, why not counterattack with ranged attacks like Witch's Light?"
Xia De was very curious about what Miss Teresa and her team did, but he didn't have time to think about it at this moment, probably because he made a sound on his own initiative, and those invisible monsters gathered towards him.
"She" quickly informed Xia De of the positions of all the enemies, and combined with Xia De's own direct perception, the positions of the six monsters immediately appeared clearly in his mind.
Those enemies who don't know the specific image use some kind of materialized "meat arrows" to attack. Although the witches couldn't know the location of every monster like Shad, they at least knew that the attack had begun.
Miss Teresa knew the power of the invisible attack. Regardless of the plan she had just drawn up, she anxiously wanted to ask for a reminder, but at this time the moonlight sword had already been pierced under her feet, and the golden shield bloomed in the white mist.
The silent attack caused ripples on the shield. Shade in the golden shield, at the same time as the sixth attack hit the shield, the left hand gesture ended and the spell was cancelled. The burst golden streamer followed the slight glass The crackling sound directly wiped out all the enemies.
The witches were not quite sure what the situation was, but Xia De breathed a sigh of relief and walked over with a sword in hand:
"Long time no see, Miss Teresa. The enemy has been wiped out. Where are Her Majesty Violet and the head maid? What happened to you?"
"The 'Invisible Sons' are all wiped out?"
The tenth-level witch asked carefully, and then added;
"Be careful and stand over quickly. They cannot be sensed by normal human senses, and the attack can only be effective if their location is determined, otherwise, even if they happen to hit, they cannot be eliminated."
"Only by sensing can we fight back?"
Now Xia De knew why the witches didn't use range attacks.
"A total of six, all eliminated."
Xia De nodded with certainty, and Miss Teresa exchanged glances with the young maids around her wearing black and white maid skirts and black leather boots, and asked a little embarrassedly:
"Well... isn't there only five?"
Although the level of each of the six people is higher than that of Xia De, they can't compare with Xia De when dealing with this kind of enemy that requires high perception to fight.
The attack of the monster known as the "Son of the Invisible" will cause the injured person's flesh to rot into a pulp, which is described as a bit like plasticine melting under extremely high temperature. Although Miss Teresa's six were not directly hit by those attacks, the youngest maid in the team accidentally scratched her arm.
After confirming that the surroundings were safe, the girls gathered together to help her heal. At this time, the upper arm, about the size of a palm, had turned into a shaking "meat jelly".
It was a horrible sight, and no treatment could reverse the damage. In order to prevent the injury from spreading, the "meat jelly" was quickly dug out completely from the arm by a silver knife. The girl who drank the painkiller was lying on her companion's lap with cold sweat on her forehead. Fortunately, after digging out the infected part, the spreading injury stopped immediately.
The piece of meat was directly burned, and the maids were casting spells to try to stop the bleeding as soon as possible. They were exhausted in the Lost Lake, so Xia De offered to help.
The water treated with "Satiating Food" was poured on the terrible wound. [Gluttony] The spirit rune has swallowed the divinity of the [Lord of the Blood Banquet] twice through Xia De, which is stronger than most of his spirit runes. Those liquids exuding an extremely profane aura came into contact with the wound ~www.readwn.com~ and took effect almost immediately.
The missing flesh did not grow back immediately, but a layer of pink meat film had wrapped the wound. Seeing that Shade's thaumaturgy was so effective, Miss Teresa immediately took out the pink potion she was carrying and poured it on the wound.
Sting~ After a burst of white smoke, the young girl who is only nineteen years old this year almost scratched her companion's stockings because of the severe pain.
Fortunately, after the white smoke disappeared, the arm had returned to normal, but the skin at the wound was a little pinker than the skin in other areas.
Everyone breathed a sigh of relief, seeing Shade staring at the stockings of the maids, Miss Teresa smiled and said:
"This is a garment made of ice silk, which can only be made by the top female craftsmen. The price is very expensive, but it is very beautiful, very elastic and breathable. Only someone like Her Majesty Violet... I meant that such a generous person would be willing to give each of the maids a pair, haven't you seen it?"
Outlanders have seen fine stockings made with knitting machines in this world. They are the product of the steam revolution and mechanization, and are very popular among ladies. As a princess, Rezia and civilian writer Dorothy have similar stockings. clothing. It's just that the elasticity is very bad, and garters and rubber bands are needed to prevent it from falling down. In the eyes of outsiders, it is not particularly good.
But at this time, the maids were wearing clothes that were very similar to the fabric of their hometown, which was the first time Xia De had seen in this world. It seems that the technological level in 1853 of the Sixth Epoch was not as good as that in 5177 of the Fifth Epoch.
