Chapter 3371 The Talent of White Hair
Shade stood beside the corpse ghost and prepared to cast a spell:
"Ms. Larson, it looks like this is what's knocking on the door. Let me get rid of it, so that Mrs. Reinhardt doesn't have to worry about being woken up in the middle of the night again. When I go to the castle next week, I'll check with the maid to see how many other strange things have been let loose in the castle besides the living."
"Meow~"
"Okay, okay. We'll have lunch right after we finish this. Mia, your biological clock may be a little too punctual."
The body and soul of this mutant ghoul were too weak, so Shade's time stillness could trap it for quite a long time. He let the ghoul remain still and raised his hand to summon a ball of blazing flames, but the girl beside him pulled his sleeve at this moment.
"What's wrong?"
Miss Larson looked at the body lying on the ground and said in a low voice with some embarrassment:
"I want to try to make it fully regain its sanity, or at least talk to us. Since its soul is still there, it is theoretically possible to talk to us. Now it behaves like a beast because its soul is frozen by the cold. It may not even realize that it is dead. It is so pitiful, I want to help it."
She thought Xia De would disagree, or give some reason to prove that what she wanted to do was meaningless. She also knew that it was best to dispose of the body directly at this moment. But Xia De just thought about it and nodded in agreement.
The flame in the hand disappears:
"You can try to wake it up, and I'll help you. But this is considered as you entrusting me to do something, so you have to pay me - you have to treat Mia and me to lunch today."
"why?"
The white-haired girl blinked, and Shade said with a smile:
"You asked me to do something extra, so of course I have to treat you to a meal."
"No, I mean, why would you let me do this extra thing?"
She looked up at Shad, her emerald eyes a different shade from Dorothy's green eyes and Amelia's green eyes.
"Because there's nothing to do today, and you said you have a way to awaken its sanity, so it doesn't matter if you give it a try."
Shade took a step to the side to allow Miss Larson to get in front of the corpse:
"But you have to hurry up."
"Why as soon as possible?"
"Because Mia obviously needs lunch, and she will hate you if you delay her lunch."
Cats are not that stingy.
Miss Larson couldn't cast spells on a target whose time was frozen, so Shade first used the [Moonlight Ring] to imprison the corpse and then canceled the time freeze.
The ghoul was too weak, and couldn't even move after being tied up by the three-color moonlight ring. So Miss Larson carefully knelt on the snow beside it, summoned her life ring, put her palms together, and moved her palms forward to approach the ghoul's body.
Of course, this corpse is a male and as an undead creature, its surface must be poisonous, and the white-haired girl did not actually touch it with her hands.
After she closed her eyes and began to sense the coldness in the other person's body, Shade saw wisps of frost continuously flowing into Miss Larson's palm.
Her body was not frozen, but a layer of ice-blue light appeared on her surface. Xia De, who had come into contact with the "Winter God" [Winter Girl] in the Silver Mountains, was very sure that this was the power of that god.
However, this is not divinity. Stella Larson should have just come into contact with the holy objects of the cult during the past trial, and then absorbed the power somehow.
This was a sign of talent in Shade's eyes - she was very compatible with the power of the old god, so she had the talent to become the divine body of the old god [Winter Girl]. Even her natural white hair was a proof of this.
However, the old god who helped Chloe become a demigod with Shade has long gone, so Shade does not need to worry about everything Miss Larson is going through now, which is just a test woven by the Winter Choir to make her "know her own mission". Her destiny belongs to the winter, there is no doubt about that, as for where this destiny will lead her, even Shade cannot say for sure.
As Miss Larson continued to absorb the special chill from the mutant ghoul's soul, the frost covering the ghoul's body began to slowly melt. Seeing the white-haired girl's face getting paler and her breathing getting weaker, Shade frowned and couldn't help but remind her:
"Ms. Larson, please stop for a moment. I think you can't hold on any longer."
But the girl kneeling in the snow did not respond, so Xia De reached out and pushed her, then he found that her body was as hard as an ice sculpture.
It’s not that she doesn’t want to stop, but she can’t stop now.
Shade sighed helplessly and tried to pick up Miss Larson and move her away from the zombie, but the transmission of the cold did not seem to be weakened by the increase in physical distance.
"Inner Fire" only gives warmth but does not cut off the connection, so this magic will not work, but he is not without other methods. He held the girl in one hand and snapped his fingers with the other hand. The red moonlight sword appeared out of thin air in front of him and pierced into the snow under his feet. Then the golden light of "Hedon Seal" enveloped the two of them.
After obtaining the [Sword] Spirit Rune, for some reason, Shade no longer had to hold the sword directly when using the seal. He only needed to have his own sword pierced under his feet. After the shield symbolizing the power of the sun enveloped the two of them, the coldness transmitted by the corpse ghost was immediately cut off.
Xia De confirmed that the corpse ghost was still lying obediently in the snow, then comforted the cat who wanted to eat lunch again, and put his hand on his chest:
“The fire within.”
I have to admit that this magic is really convenient.
The warm yellow light was then pressed into Miss Larson's forehead. She shuddered and opened her emerald eyes. After looking at Shade, the girl, who was still held by Shade with one hand, blushed. She figured out what was going on and looked away in embarrassment.
Xia De didn't care much:
"I also got into a lot of trouble when I was at a low level. For example, when I first met Karina, I accidentally let a box that could produce darkness go out of control. People always make mistakes, but as long as there is no next time, it's fine."
"I understand. Thank you."
She broke free from Shad's arms and shivered again from the cold.
Although the chill was no longer transmitted, she had absorbed too much chill just now. Although she was not completely unable to move like she was on Friday night, her pale face showed that she must be feeling very uncomfortable.
But Shad was not Carina or Iluna, he did not have the ability to balance the power in other people's bodies. So he wanted to suggest that they go back and rest now, since the ghoul had been controlled anyway, and they could deal with it however they wanted.
But Miss Larson shook her head slightly, then asked Shade to turn around:
"Can you please stop looking at me for a while?"
"Okay, but if you run into trouble, remember to remind me."
He nodded hesitantly, and really turned his back to Miss Larson, staring at the ghoul. Mia was curious about what was happening behind her and climbed onto Shad's shoulder, but was also pulled down by Shad.
【She is watching you.】
This time Xia De did not refuse "her" help. After all, the girl was indeed a bit reckless in doing things.
【She waved at you, wanting to make sure you weren't peeking. 】
[She turned her back to you. No, now she turned sideways to you. She was probably worried that if she turned her back to you, she wouldn't be able to see if you were peeking.]
"She" smiled lightly, and Xia De also smiled.
[She cupped her hands together, looked at you again, lowered her head, and put a blue gem into her mouth]
The pause lasted for five or six seconds, during which time Shad heard a strange sound coming from behind him.
[She spat out the gem in her mouth. What she spat out into her palm was a beautiful oval-shaped ice jade.]
【She hid the ice jade in her pocket.】
"Mr. Watson, that's enough."
Miss Larson said, and then walked to Shade's side. At this time, her face had regained its rosy color, and it seemed that she had attached the excess coldness in her body to the gems through the "gem technique" taught by Claire.
However, this method should only be able to deal with situations where the coldness in the body is slightly out of control. It cannot deal with situations like the one on Friday.
"You didn't peek, did you?"
She asked again in a low voice, and Xia De immediately shook his head:
"Not only me, I also controlled Mia so that she wouldn't look at you."
"Meow!"
The cat in Xia De's arms called out like this, and the white-haired girl smiled shyly, thinking that the man next to her was really interesting:
"Let's continue. I'll 'purify' it two more times, and it should be able to speak."
"Are you sure you can hold on?"
"Mr. Watson, although I am weaker than you, I am also a witch's apprentice and if something really happens, you will save me, right?"
Miss Larson was really concerned about Mia's lunch, so she acted very quickly. The specific process was that she would absorb the coldness, and Xia De would interrupt her at the right time, and then she would quietly send the coldness that she could not integrate into the gemstone to turn it into ice jade.
The process will become very fast after you become proficient in it, and the "purification" process can be completed smoothly in just over ten minutes.
The soul of the corpse was not tainted with too much resentment to begin with, and after the external chill dissipated, its soul gradually recovered from numbness. Even the skin of the corpse seemed to become plumper, no longer like bacon in an ice storage.
Because the body and soul were still there, Shade even felt for a few seconds that it might be "resurrecting", but after a quick inspection he realized that the organs inside the corpse had long been completely necrotic and the blood had long been frozen together with the blood vessels.
