Selena's fingers drew a circle in front of her chest, then towards her throat, stopping in front of her mouth.

With Selena's prayers, it was like a pair of invisible hands that froze the air around her, as if she was standing in the water, her every movement caused faint ripples in the air, and the big hand drew a scarlet six-pointed star circle under her feet, and countless complicated magic runes appeared under her feet.

And her body was shrouded in a dark light that shot down from the sky and fell directly on Selena through the roof of the thatched house.

A huge dark aura rushed into Selena's body like a torrent, she seemed to have suddenly become another person, her body took on a dark gray, Selena's eyes became cold and ruthless at this moment, she looked at Surdak's right leg lightly, and the corners of her mouth pursed slightly, as if revealing a mockery.

Without even using any spells, with a flick of his fingers, a black light fell on the wound.

A trace of black gas appeared near Surdak's leg wound, which was pulled away from his wound by the black light, and then the wound healed rapidly at a speed visible to the naked eye.

This is not the first time Selena has used the power of the dark goddess Celine, as these dark powers slowly dissipate from Selena's body, her skin gradually returned to its original whiteness, and her deep eyes gradually returned to amber, and she changed back to the same Selena as before.

She has become more and more proficient in the use of dark powers, and has taken on the appearance of a dark priestess.

Surdak saw her become conscious, lying on the chair and propping up her body slightly, hooking her white chin with his hand, leaning over and kissing her soft lips, the sweetness seemed to melt into the water at once, Selena looked at Surdak with some confusion, and did not break free until she was about to suffocate.

She didn't even pay attention to Signa, who was lying on the square table looking at a magic notebook, and looked at Surdak with wide amber eyes, and asked with a look of surprise, "How are you?" ”

Surdak took her into his arms again and said to her, "You cured her, but you don't know?" ”

Selena pillowed on Surdak's chest, listened to the powerful beating sound of his heart, looked up into his eyes and said with a smile: "I just feel that this is okay, I can sense a trace of death around your wound, but I can't be sure, I can't even see it, I just feel that the power that the goddess Celine has descended on me will work......"

"Yes, it's useful!" Surdak bent his legs and touched them, and said with some regret: "I'm already fine, if I knew that this would be okay, I should have come back earlier, I wasted so many sand wolf heads in vain." ”

Seeing Selena's beautiful face draw closer, Surdak asked her, "Can you pray to the goddess for some divine power?" ”

"yes, it's just that sometimes it gets a response, sometimes it doesn't! The Goddess of Darkness is ......" Selena said casually, her gaze a little misty under Surdak's hot gaze.

Suddenly he was crushed under Surdak......

"Hmm......"

……

Surdak's magic notebook was on the table, and Signa was half-kneeling in her chair, looking curiously at the cover of the magic note by candlelight.

This magic notebook was accidentally found by Signa in Surdak's outfit, and it fell to the ground along with her clothes, and Signa initially just wanted to pick up the clothes and items that had fallen on the ground, and then get the magic note that gave her strange feelings.

I knew very well that I shouldn't open Surdak's things, but there seemed to be another voice in my heart tempting me to open it, and Signa told herself in her heart that I would just open it a little bit, and it would close immediately after a glance.

She glanced back at the bed, hesitating to blow out the oil lamp on the table, the time to light the oil lamp today was already out of time, but Surdak is here tonight, it should be okay.

In the past, she could stay quiet all night by lying in front of the square table and watching the flames that kept jumping in the dark, but now the dancing flames of the oil lamp were completely unattractive, she just wanted to open the magic notes and see what was written inside, she had never learned imperial writing, but she really wanted to take a look.

The wooden bed against the wall was rocking gently, and she felt that even if she climbed on the bed, she would not be able to sleep, and it might become an eyesore.

Although there is only a little bit of charcoal ash left in the fireplace, the house is not very cold, the blanket hanging on the north wall blocks the cold north wind, and even a little warm, she doesn't want to go outside the house, such a cold night, as long as she stands outside for a while, she may be frozen into a popsicle, there is a potato buried under the charcoal ash in the fireplace, but she eats very much at night, she doesn't want to take it out at all, she can save it for tomorrow to eat.

Selena was a little noisy on her side, and she kept giving herself psychological hints: I can't hear it, I can't hear anything......

She didn't think she should be touching the parchment, but her hand kept touching it, and she kept holding back, she thought she should stay away from the magic notebook, but there was only one chair in the room, and she didn't have much place to go.

Fighting back the excitement in her heart, which made her a little impetuous, she leaned over to the oil lamp and blew it out, trying to plunge the room into darkness so that she could not see the magic notebook.

'Poof'

The oil lamp went out, and the room was plunged into darkness.

But it wasn't as she thought, she couldn't see behind her.

A beam of bright moonlight through the glass window, just fell on this magic note, in such a night, the faint moonlight can actually make the cover of the magic note clearly visible, Xigna blinked her big watery eyes, looked back at the two people who were immersed in the world of the two, her little hand touched the cover of the magic note, and involuntarily turned the page.

The pages were full of neatly written Imperial scripts, and Signa didn't know a word of what was written on them.

The tips of her fingers touched the parchment, the soft touch made her a little lovely, and she turned to the second page, except for those incomprehensible imperial words, there were many other things on the page, some pictures and texts were sandwiched in those words, and the lines that outlined the general outline became vivid in Signa's eyes, and those exquisite magic lines actually emerged from the words, and Signa was actually addicted to them.

She could even feel something flowing from the magic lines on the pages, and her hands couldn't help but imitate it, and she made random comparisons in the air, her fingertips seemed to be able to attract some kind of force, she closed her eyes, and she didn't even dare to draw the last stroke, for fear that the magic lines in the air would come to life.

Originally, I was only going to turn one page and close it with a casual glance, but I couldn't help but turn to the second page, and after seeing the pattern on the page, I left everything else behind, and Signa casually turned the third page......

This magic notebook looks thick, but since the paper is parchment, it doesn't actually have many pages.

Completely forgetting that she was only going to look at it in the first place, Signa kept scrolling backwards until she reached the last page.

She was stunned for a moment, because she seemed to see another self on the leaves who was smiling happily at her, or that the portrait of the girl should be like she was a little older, and her heart was in a trance, like.

Although a voice in her heart kept telling her that she could not know what she would be like when she grew up, Signa was so sure that the portrait of the girl must have been what she had grown up in, and that the portrait seemed to be alive, and when she saw herself, she was smiling so happily on the parchment.

Although the portrait of the girl on the parchment could not make a sound, she could make some simple gestures on the parchment, and she was gesturing to Signa to follow her movements, tearing off the parchment page from the magic note and hiding it properly.

Signa didn't speak, she made a series of gestures with interest, trying to communicate with the girl in the painting.

"You want to talk to me?" Signa whispered, a voice a little like breathing.

The portrait girl nodded hurriedly.

"So what should I do?" Signa asked again in a whisper.

The girl in the portrait actually crawled out of the parchment, jumped on the page of the magic note, reached out a small finger and touched the finger of Xigna, for a moment, Xigna and the portrait girl stood face to face in the spiritual world, surrounded by endless darkness, one tall and one short The two girls seemed to be standing on the water, and Xigena had to look up to see the face of the portrait girl.

Xigna felt that the dark aura around the two bodies was completely different, behind her was the quiet and silent eternal night darkness, but behind the portrait girl seemed to be burning a black fire, which made Xigna's heart sink, and she involuntarily took three steps back, and the silent darkness behind her also retreated like a tide, and the two of them distanced themselves in the spiritual world.

The portrait girl tried to step forward and catch up, but in the darkness it was as if a huge cage suddenly appeared, blocking her from the other side, and she took a step back quietly, and the cages disappeared before they could fully emerge.

The portrait girl squeezed out a smile and said softly: "Don't be afraid, I'm just like you, I'm also a believer in the goddess in this world, we are the propagators of dark beliefs, but there was a little accident when spreading the dark doctrine, I was caught by a group of heretics who believed in demons, they destroyed my body, and only a little remnant of thought resides on the portrait on the page of the magic note, you won't worry that I can hurt you!" ”

"Why are you so like me?" Signa asked innocently, staring wide-eyed.

"This is the face of the Goddess of Darkness, you are the saint chosen by the Goddess of Darkness, I am an apostle guided by the Goddess of Darkness, of course we will look alike." When the portrait girl saw Xigena asking, a smug smile appeared on her face, with a hint of weirdness in the smile, although it only disappeared in an instant, but the weird smile at that moment was still seen by Xigna.

The portrait girl said to Sighna, "I've been trapped on this page for years, and you can get me out, right?" ”

"But I don't know what to do!" Signa lowered her head, lowered her eyes, and whispered.

The girl's lips curled slightly, suppressed the excitement in her heart as much as possible, and said to Xigna: "It's actually very simple, it's not as difficult as you think......"

"Come and come close to me......"

She beckoned to Signa.

Signa took a step forward.

The portrait girl continued: "Let go of your heart...... Accept me, you don't have to do anything! ”

Seeing that Signa was close to herself, the voice of the portrait girl trembled a little, and she tried to make her voice softer, and said, "Come, stretch out your finger, open your heart, and receive me like this......"

Signa's finger stretched out halfway and stopped, pointing at the portrait girl from afar, and when she raised her head, the prayer in her mouth had just finished reciting, and a beam of dark light descended in Signa's spiritual world, sealing the portrait girl's body in the beam.

"Ah...... What are you doing? The portrait girl saw the change in front of her, and roared angrily.

Her face was a little hideous, and all her original gentle appearance disappeared, and when she saw that her body seemed to be dissipating little by little, she exclaimed in horror, "What is this? ”

With a hint of triumphant smile in her eyes, Xigena said, "You don't seem to know me at all, the Dark Goddess has no other apostles in the Roland Continent at all...... Tell me who you are, and if your answer won't satisfy me, I'll burn this page when I get out! ”

"I'm the same as you, why are you ......" The portrait girl watched her body melt little by little under the black beam, and hurriedly said eagerly: "Ah! Stop, I said......"

Just after such a short period of effort, the portrait girl became extremely weak.

Signa revokes the dark light on the girl's body.

The portrait girl explained to Signa, "I'm Celia. Cooper, one of the six dark mages of the Black Magic Hermitage in the Highlandsa Institute, we have been studying the door of dark summoning, we found that the dark goddess has unlocked the laws of the world here, and sent a messenger to spread the teachings of the dark goddess on the Roland continent, so we plan to borrow the power of the dark goddess to break the laws of this world and summon the demon king in the flame hell, we are seeking the truth and the most powerful power of this world......"

"Don't purify me, maybe it would be more useful to leave me, I've been sealed in the pages of the book by black magic, and I won't hurt you at all."

A moment later, the last page of the magic note was surrounded by lines like a dark cage, trapping the girl inside.

Signa closed the page, carefully climbed up to the top of the bed, slipped into the covers, closed her eyes, and fell into a deep sleep in a few moments. Surdak naturally didn't know that on this night, Signa actually had a deep exchange with the remnants of the dark mage's soul on the page.

The next morning, Surdak left the village of Wall with a whole magical waist bag of sulphur mines, riding a Guborian horse under Rita's glare.
