Chapter 523 Weak Lights

Carrying [God's Gift Box], Shade's support is getting better and better Luvia, who was getting worse, immediately entered the manor.

In the courtyard, they didn't see any sleeping maid, and after pushing the door that was locked from the inside with difficulty, no one appeared.

Because it's pitch black everywhere, it doesn't look any different inside the building and outside, just be careful not to hit the walls. Seeing no one appeared, Shade was a little uneasy, but fortunately the pendant he carried with him could detect the surrounding demoness. Even if [Darkness Domain] hinders the effect of the pendant, at least it does not completely disappear.

According to the different positions of the pendant to dissipate heat, Shade took Luvia to the third floor of the manor and stopped at the door of the manor's master bedroom. This is Miss Galina's bedroom, only Tifa can come in and out without permission, Shade has never come in before.

At this time, the two doors were tightly closed in the dark, Shade reached out and pushed it, didn't expect the scarlet gold rune on the door flashed, and pushed Shade away.

Instead of being surprised, Shade smiled:

"I knew that even though Miss Galina might not be in the manor, the servants of the manor were impossible all because of the darkness. He fell into a deep sleep. Luvia, do you know the ceremony on the door?”

Shade turned to ask, Luvia tried her best to open her eyes and shook her head:
“ ceremony It doesn't matter, why don't you just knock on the door?"

"Oh, that makes sense, if anyone is still awake, we'll just knock on the door."

Because this door will Blocking touches, so Shade finally chose to shout a few times into the door. After waiting for more than ten seconds, a faint voice came out from behind the door. Inside the [Darkness Domain], the sound would also be swallowed by the darkness, so the person behind the door should also be shouting loudly:

"Is it Shade?"

"It's me, and I'm carrying my friend with me."

Shade heard that the distorted voice was Tifa, it seemed When it happened, Miss Galina did not leave the manor with her.

"Prove your identity."

The voice inside the door said again.

"Last time we investigated the ophthalmologist together, I asked you to put blood in my eye when I was using the potion."

"Oh, it's really you."

From the inside, Tifa carefully pushed open the double door on the right side of the bedroom, but only left a gap large enough for Shade to enter sideways. Shade restored a mask from his pocket and handed it to Luvia, who shook his head;

"No, I think it's fine even if I let the Demoness know what I look like."

Shade entered the door first, and after confirming that the room was safe, he probed through the crack of the door and pulled Luvia in as well.

A long-lost indoor light source that was not very powerful appeared. The light source was placed on the carpet in the center of the bedroom. More than 30 girls in maid costumes were either lying on the desk, or sleeping in groups of three or two. On the carpet, sleeping soundly or whispering across the room, the light source covers their bodies, making their shadows sway slightly.

This scene is quite shocking no matter what angle you look at it from.

Tifa is still wearing her usual maid dress. From her point of view, Shade with silver moon shimmer all over her body, carrying a glowing box on her back and leading a very temperamental lady. Come in, this scene has a more dramatic impact.

Tifa was not the only one who didn't rest in the room, besides her, there were four maids in maid skirts and three ladies in their respective dresses.

These seven ladies are also the ring warlock beside Miss Galina, two are second ring, one is third ring, and the other four are all middle ring, but none of them exceed Tifa's level.

At this time, five of the ring warlocks were sitting around the only light source in the room, and the ceremony traces of the hexagram were outlined on the carpet with some ashes. The remaining two stood in front of the door with Tifa to welcome Shade. Shade was a frequent visitor to Miss Galina's manor, and all the maids here knew him.

"This is my friend, the soothsayer."

"Luvia Anat."

Shade wanted to say a pseudonym, didn't t expect Luvia said her real name herself.

Tifa smiled and introduced herself, and then arranged for the awake maid to wake up her sleeping companion and prepare hot tea for the two who came from afar.

"What's the situation now? Miss Galina isn't there?"

The door closed behind her, shutting out the darkness. There was a strong fragrance in the bedroom, and Miss Galina probably liked to light incense in the bedroom.

"This morning, before the dark expansion, the young lady went out alone. When the incident happened, the manor itself resisted for less than five minutes. During this time, I summoned the servants of the manor to enter the mansion to hide, only five The individual didn't come back in time in the back garden. Now the male servants in the kitchen on the first floor should have fallen into a coma. The other maids were led by the female steward to the restaurant on the second floor. I think they should also fall asleep. The people here are all It is the maid who is responsible for taking care of the young lady, so I brought them up without notifying the young lady. They are not falling asleep due to the influence of the relics, but because they are too mentally stressed, so they must sleep often.”

Tifa said softly.

Although Miss Galina hates men, but some of the heavy manual work in the manor requires male servants, and if there is no male servant in the manor, it is easy to be associated with others, so there are male servants here, It's just that they are not allowed to enter the second floor and above.

"Are you all right?"

Shade asked concernedly, and he kept his voice down to prevent waking up the others who were asleep.

"It's alright for now, Miss foresaw the worst, so I left this."

Tifa pointed to the light source behind her, which was a cylindrical kerosene lamp. Bronze metal material, the main body is cylindrical, and the bottom is supported by three feet. The kerosene lamp was roughly as high as Shade's chest, and was divided into five sections, each with a separate wick. The lampshade is made of glass, and there is an undying bird pattern on the metal that fixes the lampshade. There is also a beautiful bronze undying bird statue on the top of the lamp post.

This is a relic.

"Secret Keeper Level (Level 3) [Unying Bird's Lamp], the only positive feature is that it can continue to emit heat to illuminate the surroundings, and will not go out anyway. The negative feature is that if this light If it is not contained in a closed refractory material, the probability of a fire around it will be greatly increased, and if the fire is not handled in time, there will be some monsters in the flames that the young lady finds troublesome."

Tifa explained to Shade Dao:

"Because there is only one characteristic, we can insist on shining in [Darkness Domain]. However, the difference between [undying bird's lamp] and [Darkness Domain] is still too big, we must use ceremony to assist. Enhance the rays of light to make it cover a larger area. But as long as there are no new incidents, these lights should be enough to keep us going until the end."

"Miss Galina anticipated this in advance. The situation? She's amazing."

Shade whispered admiration.

"No, in my opinion, it's amazing that you can come here with the relics out of control, and the situation outside should be terrible, right?"

Tifa said , Shade shook his head:

"It's not my credit, it's the friends I know who gave me strength. Don't talk about that, Luvia, you'll stay here for a while. You can't follow me forward Now, I'll go down alone."

The purple-eyed girl who had already sat down looked towards Shade regretfully, but what Shade said was indeed the truth.

"Tifa, does Miss Galina have a map of the [Darkness Domain] Core Zone? I have something to move on."

"Yes, right here. But I'll go with you, no, please don't rush to refuse."

She still had a peaceful expression on her face, looking up towards Shade:

"I'm also very worried, miss, She's probably also in the Central Zone of the relic. It happened so suddenly, I'm not sure if the lady is ready to deal with it. Since you want to go there, why don't you go with me. After all, I don't know what the hell is out there I need your help."

She said this as if she needed Shade to accompany her.

Shade knew that Tifa was trying to protect herself, and after thinking about it, she didn't refuse. But he had one more thing before he set off:

"Is [Dark Box] in the manor now?"

Although the extreme fear has passed, Shade is also afraid see power. But that is the power of courage, for the sake of [Light] spirit rune, it is necessary to try again.

"Yes, but I advise you not to use it lightly."

She brought Shade to the bedside of the bedroom. The four-poster bed on two steps above the ground is even bigger. However, the curtain was lowered to cover the situation on the bed, and Shade did not rudely search.

The rays of light of [undying bird's light] only extend to the edge of the big bed, but the light and darkness do not transition smoothly. The boundary between the two is very obvious, as if there is really a line to separate them .

The brass gear box is placed on the boundary line of light and dark, and the boundary line is completely coincident with the central axis of the upper surface of the box.

This is the [Dark Box] that I haven't seen for a long time.

"How did you bring it to Miss Galina's bedroom? Did you foresee my coming?"

Shade asked, but Tifa shook her head and crouched down. The lower body carefully transferred the box to the area covered by the rays of light. Shade discovered that there were disgusting black uneven stains on the large and small gears on the side of the box.

"We were able to escape here successfully because we used this relic."

Tifa explained:
"The [Dark Box] itself has the characteristics of, Rotating the six-sided gear according to certain rules can controllably release darkness from the box. Darkness and darkness are also different. When the darkness of [Darkness Box] covers us, the darkness of [Darkness Domain] cannot affect us temporarily. .”

Shade raised his eyebrows, which was a lot of fun. Augustus priest said before Shade set off that it is not necessarily light that defeats darkness, but he didn't expect that darkness can also fight against darkness.
