Chapter 155: Yang Flame Charm
"If I exorcise like this every day, it won't take me more than a month before I can digest the 'Joker' potion."
With a gloomy face, Crane threw the empty holy water bottle to Leonard, who took it with a hippie smile and said:
"Then I suggest you go directly to the circus in the West End, maybe in a week, Your Excellency 'Sword of the Goddess' will come to help you advance to Sequence 7."
"As long as you're willing to play the curly-haired baboon jumping the fire ring."
Watching the two taunt each other mercilessly, Angel showed a smile and felt that his chest was much warmer.
Oh, it turned out to be the temperature of the Sun Emblem, that's fine.
Removing the "Mutant Sun Emblem" from her chest, she looked at her pocket watch and saw that it was less than two hours before the limit of time to touch the seal.
"Let's hurry back to the church, and then take turns guarding the emblem to regain our strength, otherwise it may be too late."
She interrupted the conversation and proposed.
The trio, or rather the sweaty Crane, had cleared all the "haunted" locations in Morse Town, and there was no additional harvest from a few sucitations.
The few people who had been making their way to the church quickened their pace, and soon returned to the Church of the Goddess of the Night, located in the middle of the town.
After explaining to Priest Sair that he would need to occupy the church for a certain period of time, and vaguely saying that it might be risky to get closer, the priest gave up the church.
Fortunately, no believers came to the church at noon, and after Sair left, there were only three night watchmen left in the church.
"It takes more than three hours to get back to Tingen, so it's better for us to rest for an hour and regain our patience for the negative effects."
Taking the emblem that Angel handed over, Klein said.
"I think taking turns guarding for an hour is the best way to go, starting with my first one."
Although he pretended to be calm, he seemed to be a little excited in his heart, a little inexplicably excited, he specially asked to lend this seal, was it to do something privately?
After being promoted to "Witch", Angel's instigator instinct is more refined, and a trace of Klein's negative emotions can be felt at this time, but it is not strong, and it seems that it only stays at the step of "guilt for cheating his teammates".
"Or two people guard, one person to rest, the rest effect is similar, but it is safer."
Leonard chuckled and suggested, his eyes fixed on Klein, trying to discern something from his expression.
Klein's mood could be clearly felt to be depressed......
Angel secretly laughed at Mr. "Joker's" easy to guess mind, pretended to be thoughtful, and after a moment of silence, said:
"If it's a team of two, the rotation time should be more precise and reasonable, first build a system ......of equations, find the solution with the rest time and rotation method, and then compare it with the results of the one-person rotation to find the optimal solution," she recalled, recalling the long-forgotten math knowledge, and then used the "persuasion" ability, "By the way, Leonard, how about mathematics?" ”
The latter was already as confused as she had just heard about history, her eyes were wandering, and when she heard Angel calling herself, her body trembled, and she hurriedly replied:
"It's still a single guard, each person guards for an hour, so that you can rest for two hours, you see, how simple."
As if to hide from something, Leonard flew towards the door of the church.
"Alright then......"
Klein gave a reluctant expression, but as soon as Leonard turned around, it immediately turned into a happy smile.
Thank you –
He spoke to Angel silently.
"I'll take over in an hour, if you feel like you can't hold it anymore, you can call me over in advance, and we'll be guarding the door."
After a few words to Klein, Angel followed Leonard out of the church.
——————
"Did you just use the ability to 'instigate' on me?"
Leonard, who was under a tree next to the church, leaning back against the trunk of the tree and sheltering from the afternoon sun, suddenly asked.
You're finally coming back to your senses, and you're sluggish......
Angel pretended to have a hidden look and said:
"Actually, to be precise, I didn't 'instigate' you to do anything, it was 'persuasion'."
"So you admit it?" Leonard simply walked around the trunk of the tree, stared at Angel and said, "What would I see if I pushed open the church door now?" ”
I don't know......
Frowning slightly, Angel looked at the church gate, the spire-style church was now facing away from the sun, and the shadows fell between the main entrance and the large tree where they were hiding, gradually approaching as the sun set in the west.
"I don't know," she honestly admitted, "aren't you going to be the 'protagonist' of the adventure?" Why don't you try to figure it out yourself? ”
Leonard sneered, and leaned back into the trunk.
"Remember, we all agreed not to probe each other's secrets, so I won't trouble Klein this time, but if you want to discover my secrets and find my special features in this mission, it's impossible."
It turned out that Leonard was suspicious, since Klein took Dunn's words and took the initiative to participate in the mission, he suspected that Crane and I wanted to secretly observe him and take the opportunity to discover what was special about him?
You're so narcissistic, Mr. Midnight Poet!
Angel sighed, wiped the sweat from her forehead, and stopped answering.
But why did the weather get hot all of a sudden......
She looked up and saw that the sunlight had somehow become violent, and the clouds that had been pierced by the sunlight seemed to evaporate into the blue sky.
"It's a nice day."
She exclaimed.
Unfortunately, in just a few minutes, the blazing sunlight was gradually obscured by the white clouds that reappeared, and it regained its previous intensity.
Leonard, however, looked at the black-painted Morsetown Church again, as if he was still not dying.
……
When it was time for the one-hour shift change, Angel opened the side door of the church and walked in, and she could feel Leonard behind her looking at her with a look of expectation.
Saying that he didn't look at it, he wasn't full of curiosity......
She closed the door with her backhand, and then walked deeper.
The temperature inside the church was much warmer than outside, and Crane leaned against the benches in the first row of the church, as if he was closing his eyes, and when Angel got closer, he found that the former was dripping with sweat, his shirt was soaked, and even the ends of his black hair were a little dry and curly.
It was as if I had been basked in the strange sunlight just now.
Angel frowned, and reached for Crane's body with his right hand, summoning a large number of uncondensed ice crystals with the "witch's" frost ability, which would not form a frost spear or similar object, but would quickly reduce the temperature around him.
In a matter of seconds, the heat in the church was dispelled by the extraordinary ability, turning it cold and cold, and even a fog of condensation of the humid air when it was cooled closest to Angel appeared.
"Ahh
Crane sneezed as he felt the drastic change in temperature in his sleep.
It seems to be a cold......
Angel humbly stopped the power of the frost, let the cold air around him slowly dissipate, and looked at Crane as his eyes slowly opened.
"Sorry, I was a little sleepy just now, I rested for a while, is it time?"
The first thing he did when he woke up was to feel for the pocket of his trench coat, and then he breathed a sigh of relief and said in a hoarse voice.
"It's been an hour, so I'll keep the seal, and you can go outside and rest, or ask the priest for a glass of water."
Pointing to the church door, Angel replied.
"Thank you, I will."
Crane nodded, took off the Sun Emblem from his chest, and handed it to Angel, then staggered to his feet, turning his head to leave the church.
"By the way," he suddenly remembered something, turned and walked back, "this is for you, thank you for helping me break Leonard." ”
He took out a thin piece of gold from the pocket of his trench coat he was holding and handed it to Angel.
"It's called the 'Yang Flame Charm', and the opening spell is the 'light' in the ancient Hermetian language, and I haven't tried how strong its effect is, remember to throw it away."
It is a spell that has already been engraved, similar to the "Sleep" and "Requiem" charms of the Night Church, but the base material is gold, and the pattern is much more complex.
The moment she received the spell, Angel felt a warmth similar to the Sun Emblem seep out of the spell, through her skin, and into her body.
There is no doubt that the hour Crane spent alone just now was to make this kind of charm, and he should have used the power of the seal "Mutated Sun Emblem".
He handed it over to me so directly, which is tantamount to taking the initiative to admit his actions and bribing me?
Looking at Crane who was slowly leaving, Angel smiled and stuffed the charm into his personal pocket.
I didn't save the manuscript, I really didn't save the manuscript......
