Chapter 516 Cornfield

Hearing Shade's question, Luvia in the dark laughs sorry a moment. Shade noticed that her eyes had an imperceptible purple shimmer in the horrific darkness, which was especially evident in the current lack of light:

“Part of that is why , but more importantly, President Stan is not good at head-to-head combat."

She let go of Shade's hand and could barely stand up by herself:

"President is in The road of divination and divination has gone so far that other aspects of research have been neglected."

Shade nods to prophecy and expresses understanding. After all, everyone's energy is limited.

[Truth Society] appeared in this area, probably for the second chosen person. As for what the fight with the Prophet Association was for, Shade and Luvia didn't know.

They didn't try to intervene in this battle that had little to do with them, but before leaving the town, Luvia asked Shade to help, gather the fortune-tellers sleeping on the street, and place them in a place. In the shops on the street, ceremony is arranged around them as protection to prevent them from encountering demons.

Afterwards, Luvia left another letter telling President Stan that she would leave alone after waking up, to find the church ring warlock squad in the nearby area to come and help. In this way, there can be a reasonable explanation for Luvita's sudden disappearance.

"Do you know where Iluna might be now?"

Leaving the town and planning the next direction, Shade asked the most crucial question, female divination After thinking for a while:
"It's time to go to the Core Zone with the church team."

She also has a map of this area on her body, and the records about herself in [Darkness Domain] will not disappear. :

"From what I learned before I passed out, the Core Zone is around here."

Shade looked towards the map by the dim light of his fingertips, and was exposed. The location that Via pointed to was a forest. The countryside far from the city is full of farmland, wilderness and woods, and this area, named Millwood Forest, is a larger forest farm south of Tobesque that supplies the city's winter fuel.

Shade has no memory of this place, after all, when he came to this world, the neighborhood had disappeared.

"Go to Millwood Forest immediately?"

Luvia asked Shade's opinion, Shade frowned thought for a while:
"Your [Pirate's Blood] Money] still with me?"

"Yes, I always carry it with me."

"Use your divination to choose the direction we're going."

It was dark all around, Shade only knew where the two of them were 1 mile outside the town, and no one knew what was around.

"The current situation is very complicated. We don't know what happened to the Core Zone of the relic, and we don't know what we will encounter if we continue to move forward. You are the third ring, and I am the second ring. We simply can't win against powerful demons. So, using divination to indicate the way forward, I just need a direction or an exact destination."

Luvia nodded, out of pocket Unearth the blood money that Shade harvested from the Fishbone Pirate Ship. Trading with myself activated the characteristics of blood money, and then closed his eyes and threw it into the air.

In the dark surroundings, it is easy to see the purple shavings floating from her fingertips, as well as the dim pure white light on her body at this moment.

The coin begins to fall at the very top, quickly decaying and dispersing into fly ash in the air, which signifies the conclusion.

"Strange, the divination shows that we should go here first."

She took out the map again for comparison, this time pointing to a block about half a mile from her current location farmland.

"What do you mean? Can we find help here?"

Shade frowned asked:

"But who will help us? Miss Na's manor was also engulfed by darkness, but obviously she will also go directly to the Core Zone. Could it be that the doctor is coming? Or, is there any weapon against demons nearby, but isn't this an ordinary country?"

"Why do you think of the doctor?"

Luvia asked in surprise. She had heard about the doctor and the demon from Shade, but she did not associate Darkness and the doctor. Linked together:
"And it doesn't have to be a helper or a weapon, maybe there is other information there. Let's go as soon as possible, Shade, I'm not like you, I can't last long."

"However, you don't seem to have asked, how did I move here intact."

Shade said curiously.

"What happens to you is normal, and isn't it more normal than what you're doing on Tobesque Night and Cold Harbor?"

Compared to walking alone, being able to act with others in this darkness gave Shade a lot of psychological comfort. The surroundings were extremely silent, and when Shade and Luvia exchanged information with each other, they tried to keep their voices as low as possible.

Luvia's spirit is gradually becoming sluggish, so in order to prevent Shade from having no way to seal the demon after she fell asleep again, she gave Shade the ceremony information and materials she prepared to seal the demon. With the [God Gift Box], even if Darkness is killed, there is no need to worry about letting go of the human pus demon.

Shade can't do anything about Luvia's situation. Now that Luvia can insist on walking with him, he has been extremely surprised. This is definitely not only because of the four dive technique talismans, Luvia must also have a way to resist the erosion of darkness.

It's just that this resistance is not strong, the darkness is absorbing her spirit strength, melting her will, and grinding her sanity. Coupled with the risk of using a price divination just now, Shade knows very well that he is probably the only one who can finally go to the dark Core Zone.

And before that, Shade needs to find a safe place for Luvia to sleep.

Because there was no reference in the dark, even with a map in hand, it took them at least three times longer than normal to find the location Luvia had learned from the divination.

It was just that Shade's eyes had just observed those corns that had been dyed black at the edge of his field of vision, and Luvia suddenly pulled him and pointed to his ears, signaling Shade to listen carefully.

Holding his breath, sure enough, a very slight singing came into his ears from the cornfield in front of him, and there were intermittent sounds of stones knocking.

The vocals that make up the singing voice come from hundreds of shrill voices. A normal person would probably have to strangle their necks to make a similar sound.

"What's the situation? Who sings in this kind of place?"

Shade wondered, and wanted to enter the cornfield, with the help of the tall plants dyed black Explore forward. But just after entering the range of the cornfield, the rays of light on his body suddenly weakened, and the headache caused by the singing almost made Shade fall into the field with one wrong step.

The situation around Luvia was even worse. The four amulets on her body made a cracking sound at the same time. If you look carefully, there were cracks on the four pieces of metal. She shook her body a few times, holding onto Shade's shoulders to keep from falling:
"The Power of Darkness is stronger here."

"The singing is part of the ceremony, the ceremony held in this place, Strengthening the power of darkness. I've encountered similar situations on the road, but not as exaggerated here."

Shade helped Luvia to sit down in the black cornfield, thought for a while, and put her behind him. The metal box he was carrying was removed, and Luvia, who could barely keep her eyes open, hugged it. The brilliance of those golden lights illuminated Luvia's face, and her breathing finally calmed down:

"Wait here for me, I'll go ahead and see what's going on."

>

"These low-intelligence demons should have gathered together to hold ceremony within the realm to spread and enhance the darkness."

Luvia pulled Shade's sleeve:
"This is This kind of thing has also appeared in the previous records, Shade, don't go, you can't deal with them."

"How do you know if you don't try? Our target is in the center of the cornfield, I must see What else is there except the devil inside."

Shade asked with a serious face:

"Witness to the thirteen chosen ones, this is your wish. Or, Lulu Via, are you willing to quit with me and wait for good news or bad news from the church?"

In the worst case scenario, Shade still has two drops of divinity on him. Even if his life is threatened, Shade will not be stingy with the power of divinity.

"Do you have a pocket watch?"

he asked again.

"I'm taking it."

"I'll be back in twenty minutes."

Shade assuredly took out the [weak effect] from his pocket. Angel Potion], after shaking slightly, the potion itself seemed to sense the surrounding environment, emitting an extremely weak white fluorescence, but it was quickly extinguished.

"You take this, to prevent any other danger."

He put the test tube into Luvia's hand, then turned and bent over, walking towards the center of the cornfield .

Luvia tried to stop him, but Shade disappeared into the darkness in a blink of an eye.

She held the bottle in her hand, not knowing what to say for a while. In the dark package, there seemed to be something invisible peeping at her. Luvia clung to the box in her hand, thinking of Shade who was far away.

"It's okay, I'll protect you."

She heard the voice in her ear, mouth showing a smile, so she closed her eyes and wanted to take a break. And behind Luvia who couldn't see, the transparent silhouette of white, the more mature Luvia, hugged her gently, put her head on her shoulders and rubbed her ears:

“ You've done a great job."

The halo of white and the golden brilliance of [God's Gift Box] together hold up a small area of Safety Sector.

“meow!”

And it seems that because of Shade's departure, the metal box vibrated slightly. But because the box itself has a sliding lid, even if there is something inside, it is impossible to open the lid by itself.

Luvia had closed her eyes and fell into a short slumber, so naturally she couldn't hear the sound. The white silhouette behind her didn't care about the slight cat meowing, but hummed a lullaby softly.

It's not loud, but it's reassuring.

PS: Shade has two leaves at the start.
