Chapter 0439: Spiritual Witchcraft
As night fell, the tower descended into darkness.
After simply filling their stomachs, Sabrina and Bilis hid in a room and never came out again.
There was a dead silence in the quiet, dark tower, except for the faint candlelight that shimmered through the narrow and slender stone windows. In the light and shadow, it seems that a tall figure is inspecting every room in the tower, floor by floor.
Grim strolled through the narrow, empty dark corridor, holding a small candlestick in his hand, and five candles the thickness of his thumb emitted a dim and dim candlelight. The light of the candelabra could not even illuminate the walls on either side, and it could only shroud Grim in it.
As he slowly walked down the hallway with a candlestick, Grim muttered in a low voice.
"Come out...... It's time for you to come out too...... You can't just hide like this all the time, can you?"
Finally, just as Grim walked to the corner of the corridor on the second floor, the wooden door of a secret room suddenly opened strangely.
Grim smiled indifferently and walked slowly to the wooden door with the candlestick.
The wooden door was half-open, and a black footprint was clearly printed on the floor in front of the door, and the shape and size were only half the size of a human, which seemed to have been left by a small humanoid creature.
With a tap of the wand in his left hand, the wooden door opened completely, and the candlelight was cast into it, illuminating everything in the room.
Dusty floors, shabby and rotten tables and chairs, and some red wooden boxes stacked in the corners. And in the darkness that could not be lighted, a miserable white figure with loose hair stood there, scarlet eyes staring at Grim through the gap between his long hair, filled with a chilling viciousness.
Unmoved, Grim strode into the secret room. The candlelight in the room grew brighter and brighter, and there were fewer and fewer dark shadows to hide, and the pale figure could only crouch in the darkness behind the wooden box, letting out a creepy and shrill cry.
Just as Grim was about to make further moves, the wooden door behind him suddenly slammed shut. This made Grim look back, but when he turned his head again, the 'female ghost' was gone.
"Chip, has the situation just been recorded? What have you discovered?" Grim felt a slight chill in his heart, and couldn't help but communicate with the chip.
"Perceive an anomalous force field change...... The subject is within the range of an unknown force field, and the mental fluctuations have been contaminated by unknown causes...... Please stay away from the force field source as soon as possible, please stay away from the force field source as soon as possible......" At the end, even the mechanical sound of the chip became a little fluctuating.
From the awakening of the chip to the present, Grim has never had any doubts about its judgment.
Therefore, as soon as he received the hint from the chip, he swung his wand, and a fist-sized witchcraft fireball exploded the wooden door of the secret room, and then his body suddenly turned into a ball of flames that slowly exploded, and disappeared on the spot.
In the deserted garden in front of the bluestone tower, a ball of fire suddenly appeared, and a moment later, the fire was closed, and Grim's tall body appeared there.
As soon as he left the area of the stone tower, a strange soft 'huh' sound suddenly sounded in the darkness on the top floor of the stone tower.
Grim's red-glowing gaze followed the sound and scanned it, only to notice the strange creature sitting cross-legged on the spire of the stone tower.
It is a beautiful fox with bright yellow fur and a white scarf around its neck.
At this moment, it was looking in amazement at Grim, who had suddenly appeared in the garden, and in its hand, a dark red strange rune was flashing and exuding obscure strange fluctuations.
Somehow, as soon as Grim's mental power touched this fluctuation, the scene in front of him began to become blurry and confused, and a heavy breathing sound sounded strangely behind him, and the sound seemed to be very close to him.
The chip in his mind emitted a slight bioelectric current, and the stimulated Grim instantly broke free from his uncontrollable illusion.
Spiritual witchcraft?
Grim, who understood everything in an instant, didn't dare to hesitate any longer, and the witch wand slammed into the ground, and shot a thick ray of yang flame from the dark red crystal on the head of the staff, hitting the strange fox at the top of the tower.
"There's something strange about you, and you're able to resist the pull of the illusion I've been preparing for so long. Hehe, it's your fortune today, we'll see you later......" The fox's tail at the top of the tower swept away, and the witchcraft shot by Grim deflected strangely, grazing its body and flying into the sky.
And after doing all this, the fox did not stay any longer, crushed the dark red rune in his palm, and disappeared into the deep night with a vertical leap of his body.
Grim didn't try to catch up.
Such strange wizards always like to set up ambushes to lure their enemies into traps, and it is certainly not good to chase them rashly. After closing his eyes and sensing it, the chip still scanned the strange force field fluctuations in the tower, and it seemed that the force field source did not disappear with the departure of the mysterious enemy.
This couldn't help but make Grim slightly stunned, since he suddenly realized.
Immediately, he seemed to remember something, took out three Ayn Stones and threw them above his head, and then forced himself to re-enter the bluestone tower.
Moments later, the flames exploded, and Grim burst out of the tower again, one in each hand, holding Sabrina and Bilis, who had fallen into a deep illusion.
The two of them were obviously sleeping, but their breathing was getting more and more urgent, and their bodies were trembling slightly.
Grim crouched beside the two of them and called softly, but the two of them didn't realize it.
Gently opening the eyelids of the two, Bilis had obviously begun to roll his eyes, and his spirit was on the verge of collapse and madness. And Sabrina, although slightly better than him, can't last long.
Grim frowned.
Although he pulled the two out of the force field source, the mental fluctuations of the two had been seriously polluted, and it would be difficult to get rid of the traction of the mysterious force field on their own.
Grim didn't hesitate any longer, placing the two side by side, and thrust the 'Flame of Destruction' wand between them. As Grim's hands quickly swiped across the void, drawing one eerie fire rune after another, the wand began to tremble slightly, and a sparkling red glow emanated from the dark red crystal.
Under the traction of Grim, these red rays fell on the two apprentices one after another.
As soon as Hongmang touched his body, the two of them couldn't help but tremble violently, and Billis, who had poor endurance, couldn't help but start rolling on the ground.
"It hurts...... It hurts...... What is it...... It hurts me to death......"
Bilis screamed and got up from the ground, flapping the flames on his body as if he had woken up from a dream. But as soon as he opened his eyes, he strangely found that his body was still intact and had not been charred like in his dream.
Just as he was looking around in confusion, Sabrina, whose body was trembling like chaff, suddenly sat up suddenly, and the pupils of her mechanical eyes shone with a dull red glow that she was afraid of.
When her eyes fell on Grim, she immediately rolled over and got up.
"Your Excellency, did you save me?" Sabrina couldn't help but ask.
"Help?" Billis next to him obviously hasn't figured out the current situation yet: "Did the enemy come just now?"
"Well, it's a strange wizard who looks like a fox, and he seems to be good at spiritual sorcery. Even I almost cried out ......" At this point, Grim's black eyes flashed with anger.
"Isn't there a witch circle in the tower?" Sabrina asked in disbelief, "How can we still be plotted by the witch circle to protect us?"
Grim sneered.
"Because it's the witch circle in the tower that is plotting against us?"
"Ah......h
"Ahh
Sabrina and Billis looked horrified at the same time.
"If my guess was right, that guy should have known we were going to be here. Grim squinted his eyes and explained, "That's why he did a little trick in the Witch Circle of the Stone Tower before us. ”
"How can he have control of the Stone Tower?"
"He doesn't need to have control of the Tower. Anyway, due to the lack of energy in the previous stone tower, most of the defensive witch arrays had been closed, so he took the opportunity to add something to the witch array. In this way, when we come and activate the core of the Witch Tower, it will be equivalent to attracting the enemy ourselves. And ......" Speaking of this, Grim couldn't help but squint his eyes.
"And what?" Billis couldn't help but ask.
"And this enemy is very cunning, and I have taken great pains to calculate it, and I have secretly carved a witchcraft assertion in the three-story dwelling, and then lured me into reading it. In this way, he has my psychic sign, which can target my psyche. You two weren't the ones he wanted to deal with, but they just happened to be in the Witch Tower, affected by the aftermath of spiritual sorcery. ”
"That'...... My lord, how did you get us back?, did you also master some spiritual sorcery?"
"Hmph, I'm taking the fire witch route, how can I touch those mysterious spiritual witchcraft. Grim sneered: "If you think back to how you got out of the illusion, you will know what means I used!"
Hearing this, Bilis scratched his scalp, his eyes lost in his memory.
"I remember when I was on an adventure in the Black Forest, I suddenly encountered a horde of terrible zombies. There are so many of them that you can't kill them cleanly. Finally I ran out of magic and was dragged into the tomb by them......" At this point, Bilis's face showed an unbearable look of horror: "Just when I felt like I was about to be torn to pieces by them, a great fire fell from the sky and set me on fire. Those fires burned on the body, it really hurt, it hurt...... It hurt so much that I came out of my dream!"
Listening to Bilis's narration and comparing it with her own experience, Sabrina vaguely understood the methods of Wizard Grim.
The flames induced by the Fire Demon Master have the strange property of burning souls, and it is undoubtedly the most suitable to wake up the sleeping two.
It's just that when I think of being charred by a strange fire in my dream, I have a clear mind and a clear consciousness that remembers every detail of my body when it was scorched. Although this painful experience saved my life, it is still an unbearable pain in retrospect!
