The area covered by the angel-level relic [Dark Domain] is not just people falling asleep and being forgotten. These darknesses are trying to melt and devour everything around them, until all entities and non-entities become part of the darkness.
As a result, the ground turned black, the trees and wild grass became more and more weird and distorted, and everything seemed to have the property of absorbing light. Even the space itself was affected by the darkness that enveloped everything, and some confusion appeared in the space itself.
It's like a certain space has been ablated by darkness, causing some locations to be connected to incoherent distances, and you may not know where you are going if you make a wrong step.
This disorder did not occur on a large scale, and the space as a whole remained normal. When Xia De almost took a wrong step, he became vigilant because of his core spiritual rune [Time and Space].
If you really get lost in this kind of place, even Xia De may find it difficult to find the right way again. After all, he only has thaumaturgy [perception of time], and no high-ring thaumaturgy [perception of space], which is known as the nemesis of "lostness".
The demon "Secret Servant" is hidden in the darkness. On the outskirts of [Dark Domain], this kind of one-eyed demon in robes is more evenly scattered, because the divine magic rituals arranged by the church on the outskirts of the area will prevent them from spreading more The darkness spread to the outside world.
The power of the relic in the domain also affected Shad's powerful soul perception ability. Coupled with the limitation of his field of vision, he had just set off five minutes before he bumped into the Hidden Servant rushing from the darkness head-on.
But this time, Xia De was fully prepared, with the seal buckled on the [Moonlight Great Sword], holding the sword in both hands to fight against the enemy. When the opponent rushed forward, even though the two-handed sword failed to split this terrifying creature with huge vertical pupils in two, the exorcism power attached to the sword still made it tremble all over. Horrible black fumes.
Taking advantage of this opportunity, Xia De pointed again:
"Mind blast!"
The long-stored strength coupled with the high level of mental concentration caused the pointed low creature to fly backwards, the vertical pupils on its oval face burst open, and then flew into the darkness and disappeared.
Without the [Light] spirit rune, even if the opponent is dismembered, the "Secret Servant" cannot be completely killed, so Xia De didn't bother to chase after him, but took advantage of the [Mind Blast] to temporarily disable the opponent. opportunity to leave quickly.
Before reaching the edge of Forrest Town where the fortune tellers were stationed, Shad encountered the Hidden Servant three times. In addition to the first encounter with a single individual, the second encounter with a pair of individuals, and the third encounter with dozens of individuals performing rituals in the black rice fields.
The second encounter ended with Xia De fleeing with his sword in hand, and the third time he lay on the ground in the rice field for ten minutes without moving, witnessing the demons sacrifice to the black flames, and the expansion of those flames and the dark field related.
At the edge of the [Dark Realm], the hidden servants wearing shabby robes are everywhere like mice, and each individual is not exactly the same, which is not only reflected in appearance, but also in strength. This kind of demonic creature seems to have great differences among individuals within the race. Perhaps in the core of the dark field, there will be demons no less than high-ring warlocks.
Fortunately, the enemies Xia De has encountered so far are not strong.
Like the outside of the town, Forrest Town was completely shrouded in darkness, and there was no sign of any normal life at all. Black shadows roamed the town, and there were some black crystals like table salt on the ground.
Xia De originally thought that those fortune tellers would be able to resist when the domain suddenly expanded, but judging from the current situation, they may have suffered heavy losses when the relic lost control.
Boom!
Xia De was thinking about how to find Luvia, when suddenly an astonishing explosion sounded from the town.
The sound transmission inside the relic is also affected, and the darkness can also absorb sound. At this moment, Xia De could hear the sound outside the town, which only showed that the scene of the explosion was definitely more terrifying than he thought.
"Is it the ring warlock's battle? Or something else?"
[The distance is too far, and the strong whisper elements seriously hinder perception. 】
She whispered in Xia De's ear, which made Xia De subconsciously turn his head to the side again. Every time he heard her voice in the dark, Xia De always thought she was by his side.
Although Xia De and the metal box behind him were glowing, this darkness had a strong ability to swallow light, and he didn't have to worry about being discovered by others from a long distance away.
Therefore, there was no deliberate evasion, and he went directly to the direction where the sound came from.
The voice came from the center street of Forrest Town. Shad entered the town from the east in the dark, and needed to pass Douglas Street before turning into Center Street.
But as soon as he entered the somewhat gloomy town, Xia De saw people lying on the ground. These are the townspeople who have fallen into a coma because of the darkness. About six hours have passed since the incident, and their condition is not bad, and the blackening of the skin surface is not serious.
If the matter is resolved quickly and the treatment is timely, they will not remember anything after waking up, and the church can easily deal with the aftermath of this matter... provided they wake up.
After approaching the intersection of the two streets, besides the local townspeople, there were many outsiders lying on the street, which can be judged from the clothes.
After careful inspection, Xia De realized through those Ouroboros ornaments that these are members of the Prophet Association.
Luvia said that in order to cooperate with the Orthodox Church, the Prophet Association dispatched one-third of Tobesk's ring magician fortune-tellers, that is, 12 people, to this town. Xia De counted in the dark, and found 7 of them near the intersection, and among these 7 people, two of them were wearing the metal magic amulet provided by the church that Luvia mentioned in the letter .
The fortunetellers were only providing support, and they didn't need to enter the [Dark Realm], so the church didn't issue amulets to everyone. Judging from the current situation, they still resisted for a while, and encountered trouble during the collective transfer.
"Is the power of the relic increased? How can it be affected by wearing the amulet... Oh, there is another one here!"
Because the surroundings were too dark, Xia De could only see the person lying on the ground when he was quite close. Therefore, the woman leaning against the low wall at the intersection was the last one that Xia De noticed.
He ran over quickly, and was surprised to see that it was Luvia.
"Oh, my Mia, what the **** is going on~"
Xia De sighed, and knelt down on one knee beside the short-haired brown-haired female fortune-teller very worriedly. She closed her eyes and leaned against the low wall with her head tilted. There was no sign of injury on her body, just like a sleeping princess.
"Luvia, Luvia!"
He yelled softly and shook Luvia's shoulder, but there was no response from the other party. When Xia De let go of his hand, he even fell forward because of his imbalance and threw himself on his body.
"What should we do in this situation?"
Xia De tried hard to think of a solution, and at the same time, the voice from the central street continued. Now Xia De can be sure that this should be two high-level ring warlocks fighting, and he feels the element of chaos.
"let me see......"
Reaching into his pocket, he first fed Luvia some water treated with [Satiating Food], but it didn't work. I put [Youth Immature Leaf] into her mouth again, but it still had no effect. So I took a few drops of [Weak Angel Potion] and put it in her mouth, but it still didn't work.
"Put [God's Gift Box] on Luvia's head, maybe it will be useful."
But after thinking about it, I felt that this was a bit too exaggerated, so I put my fingers on her forehead:
"How about it?"
[She is corroded by the power of darkness, you only need to expel the darkness temporarily, and she will be able to wake up. 】
If Xia De has the [Light] spirit rune, he only needs to call out the life ring and let the aura shine on Luvia. But he didn't, so he had to think of other ways.
He reached out and grabbed Luvia's hand, wanting to pass his light to her as he did when he fought against the enemy with Tifa last time. But the darkness that time was only brought by the appearance of the demon, this time it was a real angelic relic, and this method did not work at all.
"Okay, that's the only way to go."
Take out the red ink pad box prepared for the seal from your pocket, cut your finger with a knife, drip your own blood into it, then take some holy water No. of the leaves.
Glowing grass is a peculiar plant that can only glow spontaneously in the dark at night. It mostly grows in the virgin forests in the southern part of the old continent. It is a relatively common special plant and is often used in various ceremonies.
After mixing all the materials, Xia De dipped the red ink pad with his little finger, and carefully drew a circular ritual matrix on Luvia's forehead, and added some runes representing "light" in it .
This is the basic ritual that Xia De needs to learn in the first grade - luminescence, engraving the ritual on an object can make the object emit a faint light for a short time.
After mixing many materials prepared by Xia De, the completed ceremony did not make Luvia shine. After the red trace flickered a few times, the girl with purple eyes let out a sleepy voice, then trembled a few times and opened her eyes.
"It actually works, what kind of ingredient is it that works?"
Xia De was very happy.
"Oh Shad, why are you here? Am I dreaming?"
In Luvia's opened eyes, there was still a bewildered expression. Those purple eyes blinked hard, and the expression on her face showed that she was weak at the moment.
She is different from Xia De, who has no protection on her body and wakes up directly inside the angel-level relic. The feeling at this time should be even more uncomfortable than Xia De's experience on the fishbone pirate ship.
After a few breaths, the purple-eyed girl finally woke up. But suddenly he covered his mouth, and asked Xia De with some weakness:
"What does this taste like in my mouth?"
It's the smell of [Youth Leaf] and many strange potions.
In the darkness, Xia De told the current situation and helped Luvia determine that the current date is 12:23 noon on Saturday.
Luvia also told Xia De what she encountered, and the situation was probably similar to Xia De's guess. At around 7:10 this morning, the darkness in the distance suddenly spread, reaching the current scale almost instantly.
The amulets handed over by the church to the Prophet Association were still functional for the first few minutes, but when President Stan organized the prophets to prepare to join the church team for transfer, they encountered enemies. In addition, the deep darkness became stronger and stronger, so that the amulet failed, and all the ring warlocks below the middle ring were all comatose.
And Luvia wore two amulets that Iluna gave her, so she lasted a little longer.
"So what happened to the battle over there?"
The voices from Center Street continued.
"Is President Stan fighting a powerful demon individual?"
Shad asked again.
President Stan originally returned to the city after the [Dark Realm] was under control, but because of the Darkness incident, he once again entered the forefront of containing this angelic relic. .
And Luvia was not in the team originally, and she ran to the town temporarily to meet Iluna.
"It's not a demon, it's another ring warlock."
With Xia De's support, Luvia stood up with difficulty. In order to prevent the darkness from falling into a coma again, Xia De originally wanted to give her the glowing box on his back, but the [God's Gift Box] can only be held by children, and Luvia can't carry it at all.
So Xia De collected the talismans from the comatose fortune tellers, plus Luvia's original two, the four talismans could barely allow her to move around in this area.
But she can't be too far away from Xia De, Luvia described it like this:
"You are like the sun now, no, it's the moon. Although the darkness cannot be completely dispelled, your side is the most difficult place for the darkness to affect."
"President Stan is fighting the Ring Warlock... have you found Darkness?"
Shad was shocked.
"No no~www.mtlnovel.com~ In this area, there are not only Darkness and Bloodweepers who are foreign ring magicians."
Luvia reached out and patted her head a few times, trying to clear up her drowsy brain:
"It's the Truth Society."
This organization, Shad, knew that a few weeks ago, he and Priest Augustus had caught a lunatic who was trying to fuse the relic with his body in the cemetery. [Truth Society] is an organization of ring warlocks rooted in the southern part of the old continent. It inherits ancient times and studies taboo rituals and thaumaturgy. It is wanted by the Orthodox Church all the year round.
"The opponent is a nine-ring warlock, a five-ring warlock."
"But isn't Mr. Stan ten rings? And there should be other ring warlocks from your association around him. But listening to the voice, why do the two sides seem to be evenly matched? Could it be that the truth will have a way to not be affected by the [Dark Realm]?"
