Whispering Verse

"Power? You are too weak. The power I have is not suitable for you."

This once again demonstrated the strength of the opponent, which Xia De firmly believed in.

The woman paused before continuing, as if thinking. The indoor temperature has returned to the same level as the corridor, indicating that the other party's mood has also returned to normal:

"But I happen to have a good [relic] in my hand, but it's worth far less than the statue of the old god... No, it's not the [Dark Box], it's just a poet-level (level 5) toy That's all. I'll give you a clerical-level (level 4) relic, and tell you the secret about [Mercury's Blood] to help you avoid danger in exchange for addresses and spells, how about it?"

"No problem, thank you for your generosity, ma'am."

Because it doesn't cost money to speak nice words, Xia De is happy to use the "Northern Common Language Gift Package" in his mind to translate Chinese into foreign language with a translation accent to praise the other party.

But this time, Xia De did not take the initiative to say the content of the spell, and the woman inside the door certainly knew what he meant:

"Recently, a sage-level [relic] appeared in Tobesk City."

The first sentence was a little surprising. He thought the woman was going to talk about the secret keeper relic [forged Philosopher's Stone] related to [Blood of Mercury]. Xia De had seen the college's bounty from the doctor. make.

But fortunately, it is only a sage level (level 2), not an angel level (level 1). But thinking about it carefully, it is unlikely that he suddenly encountered an angel-level relic. After all, Xia De still has a certain degree of confidence in his luck.

The woman in my heart laughed again.

"It's actually not a secret, at least the church and the academy know it, and there are other guys who have spies in the local area... The sage relic is [God's Gift Box], someone who has the ability to create of the old gods, the utensils that were used."

The woman behind the door said in a mocking tone:

"It is Mercury's Blood that is currently in possession of this sage-level relic, and they have been identified as an illegal organization.

For some reason, Mercury's Blood is temporarily unable to move this relic, so [God's Gift Box] is still in Tobesk City. The power of the relic is very strong. Every ring warlock who touches the box for the first time will automatically know a synthesis formula. Putting specific relics into the box in a specific order can synthesize a more powerful relic that must suit him. Detective, do you understand? "

"I probably understand."

Xia De memorized this information carefully. This was the information of the first [Sage-level] relic he came into contact with.

"This is somewhat similar to the synthesis in alchemy, but the side effect of the sage-level relic... Diack, the 'silver pupil' of the blood of mercury, seems to think that he can pass through that box and master the angel-level (Level 1) The synthesis method of the relic [Blood of Mercury]..."

The woman was laughing, but the laughter was far less pleasant than the laughter in Xia De's head at the moment.

"The silver-eyed man is trying to use this sage-level relic that cannot be taken away to synthesize the real blood of mercury. This is also the original intention of the [Blood of Mercury] organization, in order to pursue a [relic] that may not exist. ...That's why this group of people came to this city with some messy things, including the statue. It is said that there are several very good [relics], but unfortunately I only want this statue at the moment."

"Then what do you think of that sage-level relic, [God's Gift Box]?"

Xia De hesitated, he was very doubtful, if what the woman said was true, would the academy who knew about it tell the truth to the ring magicians who taught by correspondence in this area.

If the truth is told, then the reward order seems to be a little evasive. Therefore, the college's reward order he saw at the doctor's office is likely to be "finding traces of the [Mercury Blood] organization" is the real purpose, and the fake Philosopher's Stone is just incidental.

The Academy does not intend to share this information with Correspondence Ringlocks at this time.

"I am not interested in that item at all. I know what that box is, so I will never touch it. It only appeared in the autumn of 1068 of the Fifth Epoch. It is very ancient and powerful... If I am you, for the next few months, I will definitely hide [Blood of Mercury] in this foggy capital of steam, and those people are almost going crazy now."

"Okay ma'am, thanks for the info. Here's the spell..."

It took a few seconds to memorize what the woman had said word for word, and then voluntarily uttered the six-syllable mantra. After finishing speaking, he added that this was only known because of the effect of his core spirit rune.

But the woman doesn't seem to care about this sentence, just like she doesn't care why Shade can make the [Box of Darkness] easily out of control.

"Very good, detective, I appreciate people like you, this is a pretty good commission. Then, please keep this [relic] away."

There was the sound of a drawer being pulled behind the door, followed by footsteps. But when the door was finally pushed open, only a young maid walked out. She looked like she was in her twenties, and she wore a classic thick black and white maid uniform.

The long black hair was covered with white hair accessories, and because she was not working in the kitchen, there was no apron that Shad imagined outside the maid's dress.

This is definitely not the lady Shade was talking to. The outline of the lady behind the door was described by the color of gold in the darkness just now, which is very different from this black-haired maid.

After the maid opened the door at the corner of the bookshelf, she immediately restored the door to its ajar state, preventing Xia De from seeing the "noble lady" inside the door. Then he cautiously held a small square box in front of Xia De with both hands. A ring embedded in the lining.

The faint smell of blood was caught, but neither the naked eye nor [Echo of Blood] could see that the ring itself was stained with blood.

The ring is like sterling silver, and the surface of the ring is yellow amber wrapped with unknown insects. The insect looked like an ordinary flying mosquito, but its whole body was blood-colored, as if it could come alive from amber in the next second.

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

"A clerk-level relic [Vampire Ring], if you wear a ring in an injured state and directly touch the skin of any humanoid creature, you can absorb the other party's blood to heal yourself.

Diseases and curses cannot be cured, but can be alleviated. But if the injury that needs to be healed is too serious, it may cause the blood of the person being contacted to be drained in an instant... But don't use the ring as a means of attack, even if you are willing to self-mutilate, it is a clerical-level relic, Frequently using the ability of the ring to heal yourself will cause you to have performances similar to thirst and blood. "

Here's the woman inside the door explaining that she's not hiding anything about the relic:

"In an uninjured state, don't wear it, at least don't wear it for a long time, otherwise I can't guarantee what will happen. Of course, even if it's not because of the side effects of the relic, it's best not to wear it lightly, because this is also what I learned from [Blood of Mercury] 】It was taken from there, they don’t know who took it, so...you should be so cautious.”

Xia De didn't know for a while whether he should complain about the contradiction between the other party and [Blood of Mercury], or think about the relationship between the collection of so many extraordinary items related to [Blood] and the synthesis formula in [Blood of Mercury].
