The pot was quickly put on top of the bonfire, and Mrs. Marquez was cooking the vegetables brought by Shad, and simply sprinkled salt on it. The flames were brighter than when Xia De came, and the improvement of mental state can be effectively fed back through the flames.
The exuberant firelight can illuminate the faces of everyone in this small shelter, but considering that there is a terrifying snow-capped mountain evil spirit here, the four faces illuminated by the light seem to be somewhat hideous.
"Can't you just leave here?"
"You really don't know?"
Miss Cloyin held the teacup and sipped hot tea, her attitude towards Xia De was obviously much better:
"Only by climbing to the highest peak of the Silver Mountains is it possible to leave this strange area. There is no concept of time here, and the space is extremely chaotic, inhabited by countless ancient evils."
Pause:
“The black tea is very tasteful.”
When the blood color returned to her face, the charm of a witch was revealed almost immediately. The red-gold eyes stared at Xia De, and that familiar scrutiny made Xia De think of many people.
"In addition to the ancient evils, there are countless things in this snow mountain that ordinary people can't imagine. Demons, relics, and even the legendary snow mountain elves who help the lost will pretend to be human beings to help the survivors."
As he spoke, he looked towards Xia De, and looked around at Xia De who was still reaching out to warm himself up, to make sure that there were no "magical elves" around him. The "Snow Mountain Elf" she mentioned is not an elf race like Miss Olanord, but a strange "spirit"-like creature:
"The Point Guard Is Here"
"I am human."
Shad emphasized.
"Yes."
Miss Cloyin nodded:
"No matter what the purpose is, the three of us will climb to the highest peak of the Silver Mountains. Sir, if you really come to help us, then use your wisdom to find out who is among us Who is possessed by the evil spirit of the snow mountain."
The evil spirits and demons that originated in the third era are very good at hiding. Even Shade can't find them easily. Fortunately, he has other methods:
"Try this."
He took out three more glass vials, which were made by Priest Augustus, which is very close to the No. 4 holy water of No. 3 holy water:
"Drink it, if you are possessed by a demon, you should have a reaction."
He handed out the glass bottles to the three, and Miss Cloyin shook the bottles:
"Holy water?"
Xia De did not expect that witches had already heard of holy water in the early fifth era.
"A good idea indeed."
The witch drank the liquid first and seemed to have no reaction. Mrs. Marquez, who was cooking vegetable soup, also drank the holy water, but also had no reaction. Although the cowering man didn't speak, he also knew that if he didn't do so, he would be thrown out directly. But after he drank the liquid, he remained normal.
The wind howled in the mountains, and the snow fell more and more. The four people in the light of the bonfire all looked at other people in this small space. The shadows of the four were reflected on the canvas and branches, which made the shadows look extremely terrifying.
In the jumping flames, Xia De also drank the holy water to prove that he was fine. He regretted that [Night Watchman] and [Demon Hunting Seal] could not be brought here. No matter how good the devil was at hiding, there was nothing to hide from these two relics.
"Ma'am, what can you do?"
Xia De, feeling cold again, asked Miss Cloyin again, and the young witch shook her head slightly:
"If I had a good idea, we would have solved the problem before you showed up."
After he finished speaking, he hesitated again:
"However, since you just mentioned that winter god, maybe we can rely on the power of that great one to discern demons."
"You want to hold a god-calling ceremony?"
Xia De asked in a low voice, and Miss Cloyin immediately shook her head:
"Don't you think highly of me? Although I am a believer in that god, I'm only at the eleventh level. And do you see that there are decent ritual materials around me?"
She squirmed forward, bringing herself closer to the fire. Xia De didn't know how long this witch had lived in this snow-capped mountain. Her hair was messy, her lips were slightly white, and Xia De had never seen such a miserable look on other witches.
"You seem to be thinking something very rude."
The witch looked at the pot of fragrant vegetable soup:
"We can't hold the god-calling ceremony, but we can call the gaze of the gods. This silver mountain is very special. In this environment, only a few great ones will respond to the call of mortals. And the **** of winter 'Winter Maiden', It is the **** who is most easily attracted to us at present."
She ordered Mrs. Marquez to serve her a bowl of hot soup:
"How will the ceremony be held?"
Xia De asked immediately, the howling wind suddenly became stronger at this moment, and the terrifying "woo woo~" sound made the four of them subconsciously tighten their bodies. The wind blowing in from the air leak in the "shelter" made the bonfire shake, and under the same trembling firelight, the expressions of the four faces were different.
"Crystal snow as a sacrifice."
The witch said softly, her golden eyes looked at other people in this small space:
"Passionate blood as a guide."
The gust of wind that kept howling across the snow-capped mountains made her voice even deeper.
"Immaculate ice as an altar."
The bonfire that was continuing to heat the vegetable soup suddenly became dim, and the surrounding light rapidly weakened. Before the darkness really fell, Shad heard the last words:
"The wish of a mortal is the most sincere calling."
【careful. 】
The whispering in the ear and the danger he instinctively sensed together prompted Xia De to twist his body subconsciously, and something like a bullet grazed Xia De's cheek with huge kinetic energy. And at the same time that Xia De lit the silver light on his fingertips, the fire light came back on, and all three people fell down except Xia De.
The witch clutched her chest and leaned against the big rock with half-closed eyes. The bowl of soup was knocked to the ground, and scarlet bloodstains overflowed from the corner of her mouth. Mrs. Marquez, who was cooking vegetable soup, lay directly on the ground, her eyes closed, not knowing whether she was alive or dead. The cowering man covered his eyes and wailed in a low voice, blood dripped from under his hands, along his cheeks to his chin.
This at least shows that he is not dumb.
All were injured, only Shad was left intact. He turned his head to look for the trace of the bullet-like thing piercing through the rag behind him, but unexpectedly found that the burlap was intact.
The rekindled bonfire illuminated the four people with different expressions, and four weird black shadows swayed in the wind and snow.
"I think, Miss Cloyin, you shouldn't doubt me, right?"
Xia De said softly in the wind, Miss Cloyin shook her head slightly, and then coughed loudly, the blood fell on the shallow snow layer on the ground, blooming like red plum blossoms:
"It wants to make us mistrust each other. Although this method is effective, it is too low-level. I will not be fooled."
"Then I will prepare for the ceremony."
As she spoke, she was about to start, but Miss Cloyin shook her head miserably:
"I don't know the ritual of calling the gods. I'm just a shallow believer, and I'm not a priest of the gods. The Zaras Institute requires full-fledged members who have passed the inspection period not to be priests. I just want it to make a move, so that it will There were flaws. What a pity, it was too fast, and I didn't find anything."
"I didn't find anything either."
Xia De immediately said "honestly":
"Yes, it's really fast."
At the same time as there was a chuckle in his ear, silver moonlight flashed across his fingertips.
The bright moonlight hit Mrs. Marquez who was lying on the ground, but a second before the moonlight hit the target, billows of black smoke flew out from the middle-aged woman's facial features, blocking Xia De's attack like a round shield. Just hit it.
Miss Cloyin moved towards Xia De's direction almost immediately, and the timid young man shrank into a ball, as if wishing he could turn into an ant.
Mrs. Marquez, who sat up straight, opened her eyes, and the scarlet light flickered in her eyes. The power of the snow mountain evil spirit affects everything around it, and the warm red flame turns black.
At this moment, the strong wind finally completely overturned the "shelter" behind the big rock. While branches and cloth were swept by the wind into the thick and dark sky, mortals were completely exposed to the snowy mountains of this blizzard.
In just a few seconds, the originally dry ground was completely covered with snow, and the temperature and sense of security in the small shelter were all gone.
"Moonlight Great Sword!"
The black mist that floated from the facial features of the middle-aged woman turned into wriggling tentacles and swept towards the normal three people. Xia De's hand grasped the silver-white sword in the wind and snow, and in the slightly shocked eyes of Miss Cloyin, he split open the dense tentacles formed by the black mist:
"Why didn't the snow mountain freeze your spirit? The casting speed is so fast?"
At this time, the black mist that seemed to be the devil's body completely left Mrs. Marquez's body, and after a spin~www.mtlnovel.com~, it rushed towards Xia De's face. He rolled in the snow to avoid the black mist, and at the same time he got up, his left hand shot out moonlight:
"Silver Moon Slash."
On the vast snow-capped mountains, the silver moonlight was hidden in the wind and snow, and the black mist was forced to bypass Xia De who was getting up from the snow.
It didn't attack the witch, and didn't care about the cowering man, it circled around Xia De's head in a whirl, Xia De and Miss Cloyin could hear the faint laughter coming from the wind.
"Miss Cloyin, don't get close, I have a way to deal with it!"
Xia De said loudly, he got up from the snow and stood up straight.
The soul is connected with the elements, the elements absorb the spirituality, and the spirituality affects the reality. The siren sounded, the bell rang, and a thick steam mist enough to melt a large snow layer behind him emerged behind him.
The huge shadow of the ring of life approached continuously from the depths of the steam mist until the ring of life radiating four-color aura appeared behind Xia De. The huge brass ring rotates slowly, even making the wind warm.
A spiritual light like the sun shone in all directions, and the light reflected from the shimmering snow surface made Xia De stand in the light. Even though the humble shelter had been destroyed, the short witch somehow felt an inexplicable sense of security looking at the scene in front of her. The frozen power in the body seemed to melt in this light. The arrival of this strange man made the snow mountain even more strange.
