32 Shadow Eater (3)
Between the prayers, four figures stood in the middle, a young man in armor and another in a priest's robe, an old man dressed plainly dressed in the middle, and a young man with a sad face stood next to the old man. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
The atmosphere between the four of them was very heavy, as if their eyes were frozen in each other's eyes, and they stood quietly and silently.
Finally, someone couldn't hold on and broke the atmosphere.
“…… Lord Dennis, I can't see what's behind it, can I still be saved?" Kazmo said after a long pause, a short moment, as long as a century.
Kazmo cast a rescue look at Dennis, who was stunned and muttered, "I...... Don't worry, Xiaoka, it'll be fine. ”
"Daniel, or Ka himself, whatever, explain to us what's going on?" Dylan spoke, initially horrified at Kazmo's curse by Shadow Devourer, before accepting the fact after a while, and asking the question in his mind.
"I ...... I don't know......" Kazmo held his head, his voice dazed, "I would have avoided it if I knew, I don't know, I was about to use magic yesterday when I got the staff, and my back hurt when I started chanting the incantation." ”
Danielle asked, "Was it the first time yesterday?"
"Hmm......" Kazmo nodded.
"You've been in the temple except yesterday, and it's impossible to get out. Dylan asked.
"I didn't feel anything before, except yesterday, I couldn't use magic...... You said Shadow Eater, I really can't use magic anymore?" Kazmo said in a slow voice, a hint of fear running over his face.
"The former High Priest...... I think you should know the reason he left, it was because Shadow Devourer had made him lose his magic, and he felt that he was disqualified from staying here. Dennis mentions his predecessor, his expression darkening.
"I know, I know it's going to be like this...... I don't want to accept ......"
“…… By the way, maybe it's not that bad, this shadow devouring seems to have a certain amount of time, I've heard Baker mention it before. Dylan tried to reassure.
"The former High Priest...... Is it?"
Danielle nodded at Dylan, who lifted his hand and placed it lightly on Kazmo's head, trying to smile kindly.
"Xiaoka, don't worry, leave this matter to us. Danielle smiled and said, "I was really hit just now, but fortunately, Dylan reminded me that I almost forgot some things about Shadow Devouring, and your situation may not be as bad as Baker's, Beck, knowing that you are in a state of Shadow Devouring, you still forcibly use up the remaining magic power." ”
"Wait, isn't the previous Grand Priest unable to use magic after being devoured by the Shadow?" Kazmo was puzzled by this, why could the former Grand Priest still use magic when he was obviously devoured by the Shadow.
"After all, he's a great priest, didn't I mention it to you in class, Xiaoka. Danielle's face straightened and continued: "The staff of gold in my hand, the staff of reason in the hand of the great priest, they are all staffs, unlike other staffs, in addition to being inheritance, it can also store magical power. ”
"The Great Priest is recognized by the Four Directions God, in addition to the Great Priest, there are also the chief shaman and the chief knight, whether it is magic talent or magic power, it is not comparable to ordinary people. However, there is one difference, and before I do that, I have to say that light magic and shadow magic are opposites, and that's something that many people understand. Daniel continued, "I also wrote a speculation report on this question, what exactly is Shadow Devourer? Is Shadow Magic Devouring Light Magic? Broadly speaking, whenever Baker uses magic, he is affected by the Shadow Devouring in his body, but in this case, Baker can continue to use magic because the magic of the Grand Priest is stronger than that of ordinary people, and Shadow Devouring cannot swallow it. ”
"Danielle, stop talking at length, you said so much, I don't know if Xiaoka can understand it. In short, the magic of the former Grand Priest is too strong, and he is affected by the Shadow Eater just like you, but the situation is different. The essence of Shadow Devouring is to devour the magic of the light system, right, it should mean this, I also read the report you wrote, and the high priests of several other temples seem to agree with this opinion. ”
"Ah, a bit off topic. Dylan patted his forehead, "The Shadow Devourer of Mana is undoubtedly a curse for us. ”
"However, your situation should not be so serious, you have not yet become the next chief shaman, and even if you become the next chief shaman, you can't compare with the previous high priest, who has been in the state of shadow for a whole month. To put it mildly, if you want to use magic at will, you might not be able to last even five days. ”
"This ......!" what is not too bad, it is simply much more serious, Kazmo almost roared angrily at Dylan, the former high priest could use magic to resist the shadow devour, he was just a new shaman, no matter what he could compare.
"You don't know the situation, Baker left the temple because he used too much magic in the month since he was cursed by Shadow, and in the end, it was too late. ”
"Don't say it!" Dennis, who was standing on the side, suddenly roared at Dylan, his eyes staring straight at the other, "Why do you always mention Master Baker!
"Hey, Dennis, it's time to deal with Shadow Eater, and it's useless for you to be mad at me. Dylan shrugged, a little helpless on his face.
"Baker, that's just too unlucky, and this can be said to be a trick of fate. Dylan said, a hint of sadness on his face, in the past, when Baker encountered Shadow Eater, he happened to coincide with the attack of the Ice Dragon, which was also the last time Baker used magic in his life.
The mission of both the priest and the high priest is the same, which is to use light healing magic to help the unfortunate wounded.
"Okay, let's not talk about Baker, Dennis, we're just as sad, we've all been Baker's colleagues and we've known him longer than you. ”
"I'm sorry, Mistress Danielle...... I lost my temper. ”
"Then back to the topic just now, I just discussed it, think about it carefully, Xiaoka's situation is not bad. Danielle said, "The source of the small card has not been harmed by the shadow devour, and the speed of the shadow devouring mana is not the same as the speed of the source of the attack. ”
The source that Daniel refers to is a vague umbrella term, roughly meaning a person's magical talents.
Some people can use magic, some people can't, it's a decision whether or not they have magical talents. Everyone is different, some people are very talented in magic and others are weak. Shadow Devouring has invaded its own magic from the beginning, and in the end, it is to devour its own talent, which may sound impossible, but in fact it happened.
This is the opinion made by the high priests of the four temples after that incident, and Daniel, the priest of the White Tiger Temple, also added some of his own ideas, and summarized the opinions of the other three high priests, and wrote a report to let everyone know about Shadow Devour.
"Can I really, be saved? ”
"I'll go to the Blue Dragon Temple, and when I'm not there, I'll leave it to you. Danielle said to Dylan and Dennis, "Don't be stunned, come with me, little card." ”
"Please come back quickly, this time call the other three great priests over, the chances of success will be much greater. Dennis said solemnly to Daniel.
"I will, there's not much time. ”
"Leave this temple to us, Danielle, and Ka, go and get back quickly!" Dylan winked at them.
“…… I'm really not comfortable with you, but with Joel's child, it shouldn't matter. Danielle looked at Dylan and suddenly felt a little worried.
Seeing Daniel's face, Dennis seemed to understand something, and he assured Daniel, "Leave it to me, Lord Danielle, I'll keep an eye on this guy." Until you return, I assure you that nothing will change to the temple. ”
Danielle then took out the Staff of Radiance and recited a mantra intently to the pedestal in the center of the prayers. In the next instant, centered on where Daniel was standing, a glowing magic array appeared at Danielle's feet.
Seeing this, Dennis turned his head sideways and said to Dylan, "The magic array has been activated, let's go." ”
"Daniel, I hope you come back with good news. Dylan waved at Danielle.
"It's natural. ”
“…… It's time to separate, I haven't told those two little guys yet, I'm going to leave this matter to you. Kazmo hesitated, and then spoke, the magic array had been activated, and if he didn't say anything, he couldn't say anything.
"Don't worry, little card. ”
"I'll wait for you. ”
The light of the teleportation magic array gradually disappeared, and along with their figures, they also disappeared in front of them.
"Alright, let's get out......" Dennis turned, his tone full of exhaustion.
"What is there to worry about, we have been protected by the gods of the four directions, and the gods of the four directions will take care of him. ”
“…… If only that were the case. Dennis's face darkened, and he was a little disappointed in his heart, if the gods of the Quartet would really protect them, then that would happen to Lord Baker. Immediately, Dennis shook his head, what was he thinking, and he actually doubted the four gods in the middle of prayer.
After they left, the door between prayers shut, and darkness filled the empty prayers again.
After a minute or two, I don't know if it was Daniel's mood and thoughts that affected the place, and on the pedestal in the middle between prayers, a light-colored shadow slowly appeared on the position that Daniel pointed to with the Staff of Radiance.
The shadow didn't last long, and then slowly disappeared.
If Dennis and Dylan were to return to the prayer intervals and see this sight, they would be amazed. At a time when they didn't know it, this missed vision seemed like some kind of sign.
