Chapter 1994: Underworld Moon and Silver Moon
The calm did not last long before Mr. Bernhardt's ghost appeared again, standing beside the fountain statue mostly covered by yellow sand in the center of the square. Except for the figure swaying with the wind, it stood motionless under the weird black sun, ignoring the witch standing by the wall.
It didn't catch up with Xia De just now. After Xia De absorbed part of the essence of Grace and Helen, the effects of the two miracles "Red Butterfly Avatar" and "Red Butterfly Illusion", which had almost become his own talents, had been raised to a fairly high level. Although the undead soul was powerful in other aspects, its resistance to illusions had not yet reached the level of seeing through the red butterflies.
But it didn't wait long, and soon looked up to the front. I saw that on the top of the crooked building, the gorgeous silver longbow had been drawn. On the drawn bowstring, the slender silver-blue arrow composed of flickering starlight had already been shot the moment it noticed the bow.
The ghost figure by the fountain disappeared and appeared ten meters away. After the arrow pierced through its afterimage, it hit the fountain statue directly, but nothing happened.
The ghost, who discovered that this blow was an illusion, was too late to dodge, because Xia De, holding the "Thunder Spear" with both hands, had already appeared behind it after its figure became clear.
This time, there was not even time to react. The 【Staff of Yggdrasil】 attached with thunder directly pierced the chest of the blood-sucking ghost. The paralysis effect brought by the jumping silver-white thunder made it unable to move, but what was even more fatal was the pink crystal that appeared at the "wound" penetrating the spirit body.
The effect of the Love God's Thorn and the effect of lightning were superimposed. Although the blood-sucking ghost could not be completely turned into a crystal because the soul was extremely powerful, in the end, this strange soul still dissipated in the electric light.
"Finally over."
Xia De, panting, just wanted to relax, but immediately turned around abruptly, and actually saw the pale soul appear behind him again.
Both hands pinched toward Xia De's neck. While retreating to dodge the floating ghost, he asked in his heart:
"What's going on? Wasn't that the main body just now?"
【Yes, it was indeed the main body. But for a soul that has already reached the end, how are you going to destroy it?】
"You don't want to say that the other party is indestructible, right?"
The astonished Xia De asked, but heard only "her" laughter.
"She" didn't give Xia De an answer, Xia De had to find it himself. But Xia De didn't have much time left. Staying in the doomsday for too long, his body and spirit were being affected more and more seriously. And although the perfume bottle could replenish spirits, the liquid in the bottle would always be exhausted.
"Do you need help? This enemy cannot be killed by normal means, but if you just want to defeat it, I can help you. The seal of time is effective for an undead soul."
The witch at the door saw Xia De's predicament at this moment, so she asked, but Xia De refused:
"Please wait a moment, I have one last idea."
Although this might be a bit whimsical, Xia De decided to try it.
So in the process of retreating and dodging, the silver moonlight lit up on his empty left hand, and then the light gradually became stronger until a silver light ball floated in the palm of his hand.
Basic spell - Light Ball Spell. Although Xia De had not specifically learned it, as long as he mastered "Light Brightness Spell", this kind of basic spell could be developed by himself.
After the silver light ball appeared, Xia De stood in place and stopped retreating. With a gentle throw, the light ball flew behind him, and then became larger and larger, until the diameter of the silver light ball exceeded Xia De's height, making Xia De stand in front of the moon in the sky-filled yellow sand.
The ghost was still floating toward him. Xia De was ready, spreading his hands holding the staff and his empty hand to the left and right. A huge life ring appeared from the steam fog, slowly merging with the huge silver light behind him.
And on the life ring, the whisper - 【True Death】 originally emitted an ambiguous and blurred black-iron spirit light, but in front of the strong moonlight, it also seemed to turn into silver.
Xia De didn't try to defend or attack, just opened his arms, as if waiting for the soul to "walk over" in front of the moon. He tried his best to recall the mood when standing on the water area of "True Death". When the soul had reached in front of him and wanted to touch his heart and throat with his hands, he asked softly:
"Armand Bernhardt, do you want to continue walking?"
The young man in black in front of the "moon" asked the soul that tried to take his life in the yellow sand. The silver light seemed to want to melt him into the light, but it also seemed that the silver moonlight was hiding behind him, showing its gentleness. The wonderful combination matched a more wonderful holiness, and the sound made by the vocal cords vibrating the air stopped the soul.
The witch at the edge of the square watched this scene, her golden eyes reflecting the silver moonlight. For some reason, this scene actually made her want to cry.
And the strange soul bathed in the moonlight, the blurred and distorted face finally became completely clear, fully revealing Mr. Bernhardt's appearance. It said nothing, took back its hand, and bowed slightly to the young man in front of it under the moonlight.
Xia De hesitated for a moment, then tapped his shoulder gently with the 【Staff of Yggdrasil】:
"Now, you have reached the end."
The soul collapsed into light spots and flew toward the distance with the strong wind and yellow sand. Under the dim sky, only the playing card drifted into Xia De's hand with the wind. And behind Xia De, the moonlight dissipated, and the life ring also hid in the soul again.
He held the playing card and took a deep breath.
【Outsider, you sent away a soul that could not leave, and the soul is forever at peace.】
【Your soul strength has slightly improved.】
Pause for a moment:
【Very good, how did you think of doing this?】
"She" asked gently in his ear.
"Last time when I sent away Sloth Edwards and welcomed back Lust Edwards, I inexplicably gained soul enhancement because of this. At that time, I said, when did I become an undertaker... Silver Moon, Underworld Moon... If everything goes to the end, even death no longer exists, then let me send the last ray of Underworld Moon light to this space-time."
【How arrogant, Outsider~】
"She" said so, but the smile became more and more gentle.
Xia De didn't look at the card in his hand first, because the experience of the previous two times showed that once Xia De read the memory about the "past life" in the card, it meant that this adventure was over and he was about to leave this time.
Miss Adele Isabella, with a strange pilgrimage mood, walked toward him in the square at this moment. Xia De took out the pink perfume bottle and took a sip to restore his consumption. Because of the birthday "party", the concentration of the essence in the bottle now allowed the bottle itself to illuminate at night.
"Look, I said I could solve it myself."
Having recovered some spirit, he said to the witch in front of him with a smile. The Great Witch of Time pursed her lips and didn't know how to evaluate his approach just now. That holy moonlight almost made her think that the gods had appeared again.
"My idea just now was to freeze its time, make it unable to move, and then banish it out of the square with a sealing technique. In my opinion, that soul does not have any possibility of being destroyed."
She explained her idea, and then looked at Xia De quite formally:
"I admit that Luweiya Anate's vision is always so excellent, and she was indeed right to choose you."
Golden eyes with a certain stubbornness, she reached out to Xia De:
"Formally introduce myself, Adele Isabella, the last Speaker of the Witch Council, the only survivors of this era that has entered doomsday, this era that should have been destroyed, but also the most pitiful person. I hope to get your help, I hope you are willing to accept my guidance, for the sake of this world, stop Luweiya Anate, and then face the very end."
"For the sake of this world, of course, no problem. As for stopping Luweiya, it still depends on what the 'Hope Diamond' tells me."
Xia De also said seriously, and held her hand. Miss Isabella was clearly not used to such contact with a man, but her hand just trembled and did not shake him off.
Xia De then took the initiative to let go:
"The power of time is so fascinating. If you are willing to teach me, of course I am willing to accept. It's just that the Sixth Era I am in is very different from your time after all. Although you said you didn't want to know what happened in your time, I still want to tell you about the story I experienced."
The witch nodded this time:
"Okay."
"Let's go home and talk. Oh, forgot to introduce, in my time, No. 6 St. Deran Square is my home, left to me by my uncle Sparrow Hamilton before he died."
The Great Witch of Time nodded gently again, but could not say what she wanted to say.
The two returned to the building. After sitting down on the sofa on the second floor, Xia De briefly talked about the six Chosen Ones who had appeared in the Sixth Era so far. He was increasingly affected by the doomsday world, so he couldn't explain what happened every time in detail this time. But even just a rough introduction made the Great Witch of Time extremely surprised.
For a moment, she thought Luweiya had voluntarily given up her plan this time, but then immediately thought that these might all be part of Luweiya's plan. And when Xia De summarized the story of the Edwards family in a few sentences, he didn't even have time to explain the complex situation of the space Chosen One, and he had to cover his forehead to resist the strong dizziness.
"This won't work, you should leave first. We will meet again, your story can be told next time."
The blonde witch with a tear mole under her right eye said worriedly. Xia De also knew that he couldn't force it:
"Okay, let's continue telling these stories next time. I will definitely summon you again."
The latter pursed her lips and nodded:
"I will also organize the knowledge I want to teach you, I will not forget."
"That's not what I meant. I mean, you survive in such a doomsday era, always alone looking at the dim sky. If no one talks to you often, even if you still have the protection of the Council's power, you will lose all humanity sooner or later, right?"
He smiled at Miss Adele Isabella:
"I will chat with you every time I come until I have to leave. I should be one of the few people you can talk to. You are willing to teach me knowledge and power, and I will try my best to help you."
It is a pity that Xia De could not leave any daily necessities here. Unlike ordinary time keys, the reality that doomsday even blurs the concept of time determines that any changes he makes here will disappear completely after he leaves.
【No, if it's just a small amount of items, it should be fine. Of course, just a small amount.】
"She" reminded him very gently.
And listening to Xia De's words, looking at the handsome young man in front of him who was still smiling even though his spirit was sluggish, Miss Witch felt that for some reason, her cheeks were a little hot. ===== CHAPTER 1995 =====
