Chapter 2381: Bridge in the Mist
Shad thrust forward with the sword, and the long sword with moonlight attached to it pierced the heart of the undead accurately. But Shad immediately found that the chest of the spirit had turned into a ball of light, allowing [Ocarina of Time] to pass through directly, and the moonlight did not cause any damage to her.
"Feature 2: The spirit can partially lighten to avoid light damage. It is not clear whether the lighten effect of the entire spirit can be achieved. Of course, because the current sword has no special effect on the undead itself, if it is another sword, even if it turns into light to avoid light, it will not be unscathed."
As Miss Belindel spoke, the slowed-down undead bride spun again and disappeared in the fog.
The four ladies all heard Shad speak:
"When this sword manipulates time, it consumes too much spirit, right?"
"After all, it manipulates time, and this is an angel-level relic."
Miss Sylvia said, and then looked to the deep fog on Shad's left, which was located on the east side of the dilapidated Belindel Manor.
The reappearing undead bride did not spin to attack again. After she overlapped the rabbit doll with the axe in the fog, she put her hands in a strange posture.
"What is she going to do?"
The giggling laughter had stopped at this time. As the undead raised her arms, the faint abnormal light attached to her body all gathered towards the two objects in her hands.
Shade could have interrupted her immediately, but just like he did not use moves such as [Chain of Sin] just now, he wanted to see what other skills this special undead had, so he waited for the other party to make a move.
The blood-stained axe and the worn-out doll turned into dazzling balls of light. After a creepy cry of "Ah~", the undead bride suddenly aimed them at Shade.
The violent light turned into a stream of light in the next second and rushed towards Shade, and then hit the shield that exploded around Shade and emitted golden light, causing light fragments to splash into the thick fog.
Theoretically, as long as it is not broken at once, [Hedon Seal] can defend almost all attacks before Shade's spirit is exhausted. But this time, the golden light that came into contact with those abnormal lights was gradually dyed silver-white.
Although the defensive effect of [Hedon Seal] has not changed, this means that this energy attack can penetrate defensive spells such as "Hedon Seal".
"Characteristic 3: Can mobilize abnormal light to achieve energy attack. This should not be the talent of the undead itself. The talent of the soul is related to the experience before death, but her soul does not look like it will release energy."
Miss Belindel continued to summarize, and Sister Davelin's indifferent voice also appeared in the fog:
"It is indeed not the power of the soul itself."
And the blue dragon girl frowned slightly:
"Knight, end the battle. She is fighting desperately, and she probably won't have the strength to show more characteristics afterwards."
"Understood."
Shade said and stepped back suddenly, and then his body suddenly disappeared and appeared in the fog 20 meters behind. The dazzling white light immediately chased after him, but Shade, who had freed his hands, kicked his feet off the ground, and a rotating galaxy phantom appeared behind him. The [Ocarina of Time] pointed forward with the chirping sound of the flute.
"Regression principle! (silently)"
After the white light touched the tip of the sword, it seemed to be absorbed by the sword, and as Shade turned in the air, the rotating white light left a halo-like afterimage around him, and then turned into a more violent energy light cannon, returning to the "bride" along the original path.
When Miss Isabella introduced the [Regression Principle], she said that if this magic was used to return the continuous output of the light cannon, the consumption would be much greater than returning the energy attack of the hands-free type, so it is better to find a way to dodge it.
But the "bride" faced this time was not strong, so as the white light column returned along the original path, the violent energy directly penetrated the abnormal spirit, completely destroying her spirit below the neck and above the waist.
After a scream of "Ah~", the remains of the soul dissipated in the mist during the fall, leaving only the tattered rabbit doll on the ground, surrounded by spirit dust and colorful luminous diamond chips, which are the materials left after the death of the "light bulb man" in the real world. It seems that the two types of monsters have similarities.
And the last sound she made was an understandable lament:
"If I could see my heart clearly at the beginning."
Miss Sylvia waved her hand, and the rabbit doll flew into her hand. She carefully examined it and threw it to Shade to let him put it away temporarily:
"After a little processing, it will be a good alchemical weapon. Leave it to your little princess, and don't give her too many relics."
Shade then turned this "toy" into a smaller toy and put it away.
Miss Belindel, who came out of the fog with the others, asked in confusion:
"Why does the last move you used just now look familiar?"
Shad himself was testing whether the magic he used, which was quite different from the genuine "Regressive Principle", would be recognized, so he was not surprised:
"Is that so? But before I turned into a dragon for the first time, didn't I use this move to fight back the thunder on the sea outside the dock?"
"At that time, I only noticed that you turned into a dragon, but I didn't feel anything at the time. Now it feels more and more familiar."
The witch of fate frowned, and Shade stood there without saying anything. Miss Blue Dragon knew nothing, so of course she wouldn't say anything. Miss Sylvia didn't think of the speaker of the parliament, so she just waited hesitantly for Miss Belindel to recall.
Sister Develyn suddenly said:
"Shade has browsed the books in the cult. He probably read the chapter about mirror reflection in "Multiple Mirrors: Time and Silver Mirror."
"Oh, that's it."
Miss Belindel suddenly realized, and then smiled and praised Shade:
"Your talent is really amazing. The move just now has a little bit of the charm of the speaker."
Shade didn't actually remember reading the book, but he nodded and admitted it.
Of course, he didn't know until a long time later that Miss Adele Isabella had indeed read "Multiple Mirrors: Time and Silver Mirror" in the collection of the [Spiritual Cult] before creating the "Regression Principle".
Although the "Edge of Life and Death" is a reflection of the world of the living, the space inside is not regular. When Shade was in Midhill Castle, he knew that in this gray and white world filled with fog, perhaps one step forward could lead from the edge of the city to the edge of the city center.
This abnormal spatial specificity, under the guidance of Sister Defulin, the divination of Miss Belindel, and the spatial positioning of Miss Sylvia, became a convenient condition for the group to move forward.
Sister Defulin sensed the restless core position of this "edge of life and death", and the more he moved in that direction in the fog, the more Shade felt the badge on his chest trembling slightly.
The five people acted quickly, and all the undead they encountered along the way turned into white ash and scattered in the fog under Sister Defulin's "watch", and they didn't even have the chance to leave their "last words".
The silver eye mask reflected the light in the fog, and the silent nun was becoming more and more proficient in using the power of death.
After they set out, they all tacitly stopped talking, and when they left the dilapidated Belindel Manor for seventeen minutes, a fierce dragon roar in the thick fog finally dispelled the brief calm.
"We are almost there."
Sister Defulin said softly, and the Countess who was most familiar with Moon Bay pulled Shade's sleeve almost to his body, and carefully observed the surroundings and identified the current location:
"We are close to the lower city in the south of the city, and the Taton River is just ahead."
The bone dragon flew quickly through the fog above their heads, and the chaotic tide of spirits in the distance seemed to be the Thirteenth Ring Warlock using extremely powerful magic. But all traces of this were soon swallowed up by the white fog symbolizing death.
As they continued to move forward, the destination ahead became very clear:
"The unfinished Yuewan Bridge!"
The Countess said very confidently, pulling Shade's sleeve tightly:
"Why is it in this place? When the location of the Yuewan Bridge was selected, it was my final decision. I have used divination many times to confirm that there is absolutely nothing special about this place. Why did it become the core location of the mutation when it was reflected on the edge of life and death?"
"If it is not because of coincidence, then it is probably due to human factors."
Although the Yuewan Bridge is now close to completion, in fact, this bridge, which is divided into two floors and can be raised when large ships pass, has not yet closed.
But in this gray and white world, when Shade and the ladies came to the entrance of the bridge and barely saw the whole picture of the bridge, they found that the "Yuewan Bridge" here was actually in a completely completed state:
"So, what is reflected on the edge of life and death?"
To go to the upper level of the Yuewan Bridge, you need to take the stairs or take the elevator. The lower level of the bridge is directly connected to the street and can be walked or taken by carriage. When the group arrived at the entrance of the lower level of the bridge, it was not empty.
And Shade actually knew the people who had arrived here in advance.
The "Sword of the Wind King" with a green sheen broke through the dense light bullets with one sword. John Flynn frowned and stood in front. The elegant middle-aged man in a robe who looked like a clergyman cast a spell to restore him. The young woman holding a staff used spells to weave a shield to defend the blind spot. The strong man holding a mace stood behind the other three and stared at the backs of the crowd.
The strong man was the first to discover the group of people walking out of the thick fog, but after seeing Shade, because Shade's clothes were the same as before, the man also recognized that he was an acquaintance, so he was not overly vigilant.
