Volume 1 The Philosopher's Stone Chapter 34 The Palette of the Moon God

"Do you know why the moon is white?"

Horn suddenly asked the crowd such a sentence with no beginning and no end.

While everyone was pondering the implications, he continued:

"Actually, the moon is the largest gem in the world."

"Legend has it that its body is the Sunset Diamond, the world's largest gem acquired by the Angel of the Throne and made into a magical item capable of holding and wielding all the power of all 16 'Contaminant' decks, except for the Heads. It's called: "

"Luna's Palette."

"This palette has the colors of all 16 decks of the Tainted cards, almost to the power of genesis."

"Then, the [Angel] was strangled by a number of human [masters], and in this battle, the [Lunar God's Palette] was beaten to only half and shattered into the moon in the sky, and the other half of its shattering became the [Dark Side of the Moon], and no one knew what was there."

"The [Angel] also disappeared after being seriously injured and dying, and it is rumored that he hid in the [Dark Side of the Moon]."

"That's why the moon only appears at night, because it's only half left."

"It's also why the moon is white, white is a mixture of all the colors, and these colors all come from that half of [the Luna Palette]."

"And since then, there have also been incidents of ordinary people seeing the full moon polluted and becoming werewolves, and no one knows why."

"So, this blood moon indicates that we may have come to the place where the legendary [Seat Angel] is hiding, the mysterious..."

"The Dark Side of the Moon."

After listening to this secret news, everyone was shocked.

"You mean, we're on the moon now?" Anne asked in a surprised tone.

"No one knows where the [Dark Side of the Moon] is, maybe on the far side of the moon, maybe on some continent other than the Mir continent, maybe in some dilapidated tent around the corner of the block."

Horn said with a wry smile, after all, no matter where they are, they can't get out in a short time, and they can't be found, and they may have to face the 'Little Ace' level xenomorph that will appear at any time.

"Woo~"

At this moment, outside the tent, a wolf roar suddenly came, and it sounded not far from the tent.

When everyone heard this, their faces changed, and the wolf's roar seemed to confirm the middle-aged gentleman's words just now, and what they had feared had finally happened.

Even the steady middle-aged man showed a look of despair, and he said to everyone in a solemn tone:

"Ladies and gentlemen, whether this is the Dark Side of the Moon or not, our situation is not optimistic. So, please give your full strength. ”

After the middle-aged man said this, he took out a withered monkey paw from his pocket, which seemed incompatible with his dress and identity.

He said to Monkeypaw:

"I need the power of 'protection'."

"I will pardon ten thieves who have no other crimes."

The monkey's paw moved, then it stretched out its index finger and shook it, then flexed its thumb and index finger in a "three" gesture.

"Okay, thirty." The middle-aged man replied a little helplessly.

"But no other crime has been committed." He added.

The withered monkey paw gestured for a moment, then snapped its fingers.

A purple ball of light appeared in the monkey's paw and rapidly expanded, and Martin felt a warm aura envelop him, as if it could give him the most solid support, as well as the others.

"It's kind of like the guardian power of the amethyst I used before, but the effect is much more powerful, almost enveloping the entire tent... And that's the role of this monkey paw, this man doesn't seem to be the [savior], and he doesn't contain the savior card..."

Martin thought to himself.

The others were also ready, the two waiters seemed to have no belongings and could only hide beside the middle-aged man, while Xixian walked up to William, who was the only one to whom she could be trusted.

Anne pulled out a small obelisk statue, and William pulled out a small square box like a music box.

The surface of the box is painted with a layer of black lacquer, and a small goblet symbol is engraved in the lower left corner, and there is a shallow relief on the lid, which vaguely depicts three maids dressing up a beautiful woman in front of a floor-to-ceiling mirror.

The lady was dressed in a cumbersome court dress, with a gorgeous necklace around her long neck, and she turned sideways to the mirror, the corners of her mouth curled.

The strange thing was that one of the three maids had one eye closed, and there was nothing in the eye socket, and two lines of blood flowed; There are only two hollows left in the other ear; The last mouth was roughly sewn up, and thick threads ran through the upper and lower lips.

Seeing the item William took out, Martin suddenly had a familiar feeling.

He felt the churning smell of blood, as if a small red snake was moving and jumping with joy because it had seen its true owner.

"This feeling... It's the card that made me become a woman before! ”

"There's still a remnant of Xixi'an's out-of-control aura at that time..."

"This William... Is there anything to do with Stanley..."

Martin looked at William with a solemn gaze, this man held the cards that had been separated from him before, and he was afraid that it would be difficult to get rid of the relationship with the second prince, so he kept an eye on it.

William's breathing became a little heavy as he pulled out the box, and he pulled out a small glass bottle from his lined pocket, which contained an unknown scarlet liquid.

He pulled out the soft stopper, drank the liquid from the glass bottle, and discarded the empty bottle as he could.

His lips became full and rosy, scarlet liquid trickled down the corners of his mouth, and dense streaks of blood instantly filled his eyes like cobwebs.

Martin frowned as he watched William's change, he smelled the heavy smell of blood in the glass bottle.

Martin is not in a hurry to ignite the [Twin Flames], as Hines said, this is his hole card that cannot be exposed casually, and he is still wearing [Time Slices].

Through his previous battles with the sutured mastiff, he became familiar with the use of the glasses, and gradually became proficient in them.

This pair of glasses allows him to sense his opponent's intentions the moment before he attacks, which is a bit like the "spider sense" he has seen in his previous life.

This greatly improved his reaction speed and was the reason why he was able to detect Hines in advance when he was attacked.

"Woo~"

"Woo~"...

Wolf roars rang out outside the tent, and unlike the last time, this time it sounded like it was outside the entrance to the tent, very close to them.

"Bang-"

There was a sound like a limb collision, followed by more and more collisions, and Martin felt a violent impact coming from multiple parts of the tent.

A somewhat strange voice sounded outside the tent:

"I smell... The smell of filthy blood... I didn't expect any vampire to dare to come here. ”

"For years, no other creature has been here, except for the occasional intruder...... I really miss the joy of chewing the hearts of those betrayers..."

His words are slurred, a bit like a child just learning a language, but his voice belongs to that of an adult man.

"Vampires? Could it be the box in William's hand? ”

Martin keenly captured the word, and the familiarity he felt on that box was the same as when he transformed into a blood-thirsting woman.

He glanced around the tent and saw that the others were looking puzzled, and the two waiters were even more pale and snuggled up to each other, slightly away from Horn.

"Bang-Bang-Bang-"

The sounds of crashing in all directions increased, and the sounds of chaotic footsteps, roars, and limb collisions could be heard all around, and excited shouts came from all directions, and the werewolves seemed to enjoy the process.

This means that more and more werewolves are gathering here.

Martin felt the warmth of the monkey's claws fade, and he knew it meant that the amethyst barrier was thinning, and it might not be long before the barrier disappeared into thin air, and the werewolves could break in without hindrance.

Then Horn said to them, "Gather towards me." ”

Everyone leaned towards Horn.

I saw that he clenched the monkey paw with his left hand, and then, a light purple halo barrier slowly retracted from outside the tent, shrinking to one-third of its original size, covering the people around him with Horn as the center, and the space for everyone's activities was greatly reduced.

As the barrier narrowed, the curtain at the entrance of the tent was blown up by the wind, and a sturdy figure rushed into the tent.

He was tall, his muscles swollen, his two pointed ears towering, and his brown hair like steel needles fluttered in the wind.

He opened his mucus-stained mouth and stared at the crowd excitedly as he ran, like a beast that had seen its prey.

As he approached, a thick silver bolt of lightning suddenly appeared in the air, slashing at the werewolf who was rushing towards him in the blink of an eye.

It was Hithean, who had the whites of her eyes gone, and once again unleashed the ability of the 'Tower' Heart III [Priest] card - "Entropy Lightning", and was much more proficient and shorter than the last time she cast it in the Plantagenet.

And the werewolf suddenly twisted his body the moment before he was slashed, and his legs kicked on the ground with a sharp sound of violent friction, and changed his direction like a ghost, dodging the entropic lightning.

The werewolf also twisted his waist with the power of the forward charge, and spun and threw a heavy giant axe covered in old blood.

The giant axe made a sound that shattered through the air, and in an instant it slashed at the barrier in front of Xishian, shattering the purple light barrier on the surface, but finally stood still in front of her eyes, trembling and unable to go further.

Seeing this, the werewolf stretched out his hand, and the axe spun and flew back again, and a cruel smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and he roared:

"Women, or two?"

"The last time I ate it was more than 100 years ago, and the tender meat on my tongue is almost as good as my heart."
