29. Traces of Shadows
The huge black sphere was suspended in the air, and an ominous aura emanated from its surroundings, and people looked up at this strange thing with strange and complicated expressions. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
The shadow of the black orb looms over the people below, silently staring downward.
"What the hell is this?!"
The people on the street made all kinds of noises, some secretly felt that something was wrong, and some people leaned forward curiously, muttering in their hearts that maybe it was some unknown magical beast?
In any case, the inexplicable appearance of this thing has attracted great attention in itself.
However, in the next moment, people witnessed an even more strange and terrifying scene, the huge black ball floating in the air slowly rotated, and the moment it began to rotate, the huge black sphere actually stretched out a lot of tentacles-like things, stretching in all directions.
"What the hell is it, it's disgusting!"
"I have a bad premonition, we need to run quickly!"
"Those things are coming, what the hell are you going to do?"
"It's, it's coming!" the black tentacles that extended from the black orb grabbed the nearest unlucky one, and the poor unlucky one struggled in panic and let out a terrible scream. In the next second, after the tentacle swept the unlucky egg into the black sphere, the terrible scream stopped abruptly, and it seemed to disappear along with the life of the unlucky egg.
"This ...... Is this being eaten?" A number of people were completely frightened by this scene, muttered blankly, and stood still for a short time without making the best escape response.
"Run, run!! it's going to eat us!!
"Run, !!"
"Wait a minute, save him!! can someone save him? He was just caught up in it, what the hell are those things, those things!!"
Various voices rang out, and the scene suddenly became chaotic, and most people chose to run backwards. However, there were so many people on the street that when they hurried backwards, some of them could easily bump into others.
"Don't push me!"
"Wow, don't step on my !!"
"It's horrible, why would I be in this situation!!"
Extreme surprise, intense fear, deep uneasiness, all sorts of emotions gathered together, like a whirlpool of calamity, causing even greater confusion. Of course, there are also people who resist, and those who resist are only a small part, and almost more than half of them are just ordinary civilians, and it is inevitable to panic when encountering this kind of thing.
In just two minutes, the scene evolved into such a chaotic scene, witnessing this scene was really beyond the expectations of Aesop and the others. Except for Neil Charlie, the other four have the power to protect themselves, although they don't know the origin of this weird black ball, but at this time, time is life, and not a second or a minute can be wasted.
The priest called Neil Charrie's name and took the two children by the hand, and Kazmo followed closely to cover for them, in which case they had to choose a longer route and send Neil and them to the temple branch from the other side of the road. Aesop and another knight, who were left behind, drew their swords and immediately rushed to the front, rescuing a few if they could.
That weird black ball seems to only use one means to attack, in fact, it is not difficult to deal with, the real problem is that there are too many people around, which leads to their movement being restricted, and there is a little more scruple about not hurting others.
Isolt and the other knight swung their swords and blocked them, explaining their identities and calling out the name of the temple, telling everyone to go to the temple branch first, which was definitely much safer than here. There were more than two knights of the temple who possessed strength, and at this time, some aliens with strong strength had already rescued a few guys who were almost caught in their tentacles.
With the help of those aliens, gradually, the scene became stable.
After the scene stabilized, a voice erupted from the crowd, "The people from the temple branch will be here soon, and the soldiers of the patrol will be here soon!" The words reached everyone's ears, making everyone feel a lot more relieved.
On the other side, the priest and Kazmo quietly left with Neil Charly, there were too many people nearby, and the priest cast several spells in a row,
I have successfully left.
Several people kept running forward, towards their destination.
The priest's plan was to go back to the temple branch first, and after placing the two children, he would immediately explain the matter and send a team to eliminate the strange black ball. Of course, it would be nice if you were lucky enough to meet a patrol team on the way.
Neil and Xia Li also understood that time was pressing, in fact, the moment they saw that terrible black ball, they couldn't help but feel scared, but because they were stunned, they didn't react for a while.
It's horrible, it's really horrible.
Neil had only this thought in his mind, and Neil ran forward desperately with the priest, not having time to pay attention to what was ahead, let alone paying attention to his surroundings. Neil's mind kept repeating what he had just seen, and he didn't even notice it, his teeth chattering.
Witnessing the image of the black ball devouring people may leave an incomparably deep psychological shadow for children with simple hearts. Neil turned his face sideways to look at Xia Li, Xia Li's face was even paler than usual, she looked frightened, and she was still in a strong shock for a long time and could not recover.
Xia Li's mind was always stuck on the scene she had just seen, even if she was led by the priest to escape, as far as she was concerned, she didn't realize that she had gradually fled there, and she didn't seem to even have a deep awareness of the action of running and this matter.
The priest and the three of them gradually moved away from the crowd, and crossed the street in front of them, and at the corner there was a downward staircase, which led to the other side, through which it could be used to return to the temple branch, but only by walking a little more, and going back to the path that had entered the front of the center street earlier.
Walking down the stairs, they continued to walk briskly down the stairs.
As the stairs came to an end, the priest couldn't help but stop, and the priest saw two strange men in full-body cloaks standing not far ahead, as if waiting for someone. At this time, the priest could not stop, for some of them saw the people of the temple going down this way, and they followed suit.
"Hurry up, I want to get out of there immediately!"
"We've got to call the patrol here, and we can't delay for a moment!"
The priest didn't have time to pay attention to the voice behind him, he stared at the two strange guys, and the next moment, he made a surprising movement.
The priest took out his staff, moved his mouth, and chanted quickly.
"Divine light, let the shadows disappear. ”
Kazmo looked surprised: "What are you doing?"
A light magic fell on those two people, and the two people did not evade, and directly hit this light magic.
Kazmo couldn't help but cover his face, afraid to see a scene he didn't want to see.
Neil and Charlie were blocked by the priest, and when Kazmo was surprised, the two children were surprised, they poked their heads out and looked forward, only to see two people dressed in dark cloaks, one of them raised his hand, and the moment the priest's light magic touched the man, it suddenly disappeared.
Seeing that his magic had been canceled out, the priest hid his surprise and his face showed indignation.
"That monster is your fault!"
Neil didn't know what was going on, and some of the people who followed him began to talk, puzzled by the priest's inexplicable use of magic. Immediately after that, the people began to be impatient, and the priest and others blocked the road and could not pass for the time being, and they shouted for the priest to leave quickly.
The priest in front of him was in the way, and there were people in the back who kept arguing, and Kazmo, who was caught in the middle, was completely speechless, not knowing what he should do to change the situation, all he could do was to protect Neil and Charlie beside him.
Soon, that changed.
The two cloaked men in front of them walked towards them, and they stepped up the stairs, and the priest stared at them warily, clenching his staff and chanting again.
As the two guys approached, the people in the back finally noticed that something was wrong with the atmosphere, and the movement in the rear became slightly quieter.
Two cloaked people, the one who walked in front raised his hand, his lips moved slightly, and in the next moment, a dark and deep cave suddenly appeared in the air, and the cave seemed to suck and devour everything around it, endlessly devouring, just like the black sphere just now.
"What is this? ”
The cloaked man said to the other cloaked man, "Ah, wouldn't that be too conspicuous?"
"Did you just react? Everything has been summoned by you. "Don't be distracted, the person we're going to deal with is right in front of us, and we just took a blow, so don't forget our real goal." ”
"Don't worry. ”
The priest didn't know what they were talking about, and at this time, he couldn't help but regret in his heart, even if he was the only one who resisted, at least distract himself so that Kazmo could take them away.
However, this is also a real proof that these two guys who are deliberately standing here are most likely the ones who summoned that terrible thing, and I don't know what happened to Aesop now, and whether they can solve that weird black ball.
The priest was slightly distracted, and he said apologetically to Kazmo, "I need your help with me, little Ka." ”
Kazmo suppressed the surprise on his face, something surprised had happened more than once in a day, and it wasn't too surprising to witness such a strange event again.
"I'll try a new weapon!"
Kazmo took out the staff he had obtained not long ago, and Danielle himself asked the dwarf Francher to make a staff.
The priest said to Neil, "The branch is not far ahead, I can't take care of you, you two should find a chance to leave first, go and inform the temple branch, you can't delay any longer." ”
In just ten minutes, something like this happened, and the priest felt that everything he had encountered today was too unexpected, just like attending the first evening in his life, when he invited his beloved girl to dance, he was pushed over and hit the girl before he was ready.
Before he could clean up his feelings, he was forced to participate in this battle, in fact, he was only a priest, and what he was best at was healing magic, and he didn't know much about offensive light magic, and he could only use two or three. It is very likely that he will face failure, and the cost of failure is difficult to estimate.
When Kazmo took out his staff, the two cloaked men unexpectedly stopped chanting.
"That staff is ......"
"The weapons of the chief shaman, what's the matter, isn't the chief shaman an old man? All those rumors are false? When did the chief shaman become a child?"
"The situation has changed, what are we going to do?
“…… Going on, it was the priest who confronted us just now, and the shaman didn't make a move, whether he was the chief shaman or not, anyway, he didn't make a move just now, which is really problematic. ”
"It seems so, we can't let go of the mission target. ”
Kazmo scolded in his heart, obviously in a confrontation, but actually chatting halfway, what two fools.
The priest cast two spells in a row, and the two cloaked men seemed to be wearing some kind of anti-magic clothes, and this kind of mid-to-low-level magic did not leave much damage on them.
The priest shook his head secretly, and had no choice but to throw out the only magic prop he was carrying, which was to construct a mid-level light protection magic that could resist the attacks of external forces and magic.
"I'm going to get their attention, Ka, and you concentrate on that cave. ”
"Understood!"
Kazmo looked at the staff in his hand, and now all he could rely on was it.
"Partner, please. Whispering in his heart, Kazmo began to chant, and when he said the incantation, his back suddenly hurt, like a burning pain, Kazmo let out a groan of pain, and the staff in his hand almost fell to the ground.
"Little card?"
"It's okay!" Kazmo lowered his head, not wanting the other to see his face.
Kazmo endured the pain and continued to chant, and when he uttered the entire incantation, strangely nothing, happened.
"Magic! what about my magic!!" Kazmo cried out inwardly.
