Chapter Seventy-Six: The Circle and the Conversation
Then, an extremely dazzling white light suddenly shone from the center of the circle, and the pieces of metal circle plates that had been embedded in various parts of the Golden Cornflower Manor also responded to each other with a dazzling white light, and a ripple suddenly rippled!
"Huh?" the muse saw a flicker, and when the sight was clear again, he saw the frozen snowfield!
The sky was full of gray sedimentary clouds, and it was constantly falling with goose feather snow, and the ground had already accumulated a thick layer of ice and snow, and the biting cold stimulated every exposed skin like a piercing steel needle. And as far as the eye can see, there is only a snow white that cannot be seen at a glance!
Reaching out to catch a little falling snowflake, feeling the little bit of melting ice and snow, Muse silently thought, "It's okay, it's a good illusion!"
Silently clenching his fists, the muse closed his eyes, and when he opened them again, there was still a familiar scene of the golden cornflower manor, the pale blue ice sculpture was still there, but Lydia had left.
"The magic circle was used to create a large-scale illusion, shrouded in the periphery of the Golden Cornflower Manor, in order to trap those low-level wanderers who came to attack?"
"It doesn't seem that simple...... "Muse recalled the magic circle drawings he had read, and the patterns and runes of the magic circle quickly matched the knowledge of [magic circle science] he mastered.
"Understood. Muse looked at the chilly pale blue snowflake ice sculpture in front of him, "The illusion only serves as a confusing and sluggish effect, just a tool to trigger the next ring of the circle, to tell the circle that there are enemies here, and at the same time to assist the circle in locking on the enemy. ”
"The real killing machine should still come from this pale blue snowflake ice sculpture. ”
And looking at the sudden movement on this snowflake-shaped ice sculpture, the muse looked a little playful: "It seems that there are a few 'rats' within the coverage of the illusion now......
"Click, click, click. ”
Under the fierce surging of the white light on the snowflake-shaped ice sculpture, there was a continuous cold and crisp sound in the air! It was the sound of the ice elements gathering and quickly freezing and condensing the water vapor in the air!
Then, crystal-clear ice crystals appeared out of nowhere, and then quickly condensed together, and sharp ice spikes about half a foot long appeared in the air!
After these sharp ice spikes appeared, they directly divided into five waves and flew straight in different directions!
There were faint screams, followed by a commotion among the guards guarding the outer walls of the manor......
Nodding his head, the muse who saw what he wanted to see showed a thoughtful expression: "This magic circle that has been upgraded by Lydia has shown the effect of attacking and trapping the enemy, and it is likely that it also has the effect of defense......"
"It's really her......"
The muse's gaze turned to the guards who were faintly commotioning: "Wait a minute, talk to Uncle Wesker and Uncle Orville, and tell these guys about the taboo of this circle, lest they accidentally fall into the illusion......"
Thinking of this, the muse turned around directly and followed the memory to the exercise ground in the manor. According to the observation of the past few days, Ludon must be exercising himself there at this time.
"Leaving you aside for a few days, you must be very anxious in your heart. A mysterious smile appeared at the corner of the muse's mouth.
In the field of the Golden Cornflower Manor, where the guards exercised, Ludon was holding the jet-black straight-edged knife into the ground with his eyes closed, while his body was sitting cross-legged behind the straight-edged knife.
But his body was not in contact with the ground at all!
The lower end of Luden's body was always about half an inch away from the ground, which meant that the weight of his whole body was pressed on the hands that were clenched on the straight-edged knife!
It's a very hard workout!
The muse stood under the eaves in the distance, watching without saying a word as Ludon remained in this position for a full hour, but in order to be able to get the followers of Luden, a powerful sword master, this little wait was nothing.
After another hour, Ludon finally stood up, and the muse was about to speak, but he saw Ludon slowly lean forward, and the smooth muscles of his legs were beating rapidly.
The muse immediately frowned, and used his spiritual power to transmit the voice: "If you don't want to get the injury of a tearing strain of all the muscles in your legs, you can only be a waste person lying on the bed in the next six months, and even your actions after recovery will be greatly affected, stop now!"
"[Wind Step] is an extraordinary ability that you can't try to master with your current physical fitness!"
"Huh?" Ludon listened to the sudden sound in his ears, his sweaty face turning and scanning around.
After seeing the muse, Luden's eyes lit up, and he quickly stopped exercising and came to the muse, looking at the muse full of mystery in his eyes, and hesitated: "My lord, you ...... Coming?"
"Of course, I'm here for you and know everything you want to know......" Muse said slowly with a mysterious smile.
"So...... Is that note your handwriting?" Ludon hesitated again.
"Of course!" said the muse without hesitation.
"Then ...... [Heartsnatcher] ......" Luden's eyes lit up and he said eagerly.
"Hey, hey, this isn't the place to talk about that. The muse smiled mysteriously again, "Besides, you won't necessarily believe me if I don't have any evidence." ”
"So, I'll give you half an hour, you go back and sort it out, and then I'll take you to a place to talk, and I promise that all your doubts will be answered. ”
After taking a deep look at the muse, Luden also realized that the current sweaty appearance was really not suitable for conversation, and replied very dryly: "Okay!"
Half an hour later, Luden, who had already taken a shower and changed into a set of his own clothes, sat on a comfortable sofa in a small living room, holding a scroll provided by the muse and frowning and reading.
While traveling on the continent of Norlander, in order to find a way to kill the [Heart Grabber], Luden, a half-orc who came out of the wilderness, also learned the pronunciation, reading and writing of the lingua franca from his fellow people little by little.
But for the scroll in front of him, although he knew every lingua franca character written on it, when these lingua franca characters were combined, most of the meanings represented were completely incomprehensible to Luden.
But that didn't stop Ludon from knowing that this was the [Heartsnatcher] details he had always dreamed of, because the beginning of this scroll was a lifelike portrait of the [Heartsnatcher]!
And some of the descriptions of the [Heartsnatcher Whisperer] are exactly the same as those recorded in the ancient texts handed down from the Luden tribe!
