Chapter 671: Steiner's Secret Friend

In front of the workbench on the fourth floor of the restored library tower, where the damage caused by the explosion had been restored, Sally reopened her eyes to the rough piece of iron in her white hands, which was flickering at a fixed frequency.

As a very low-level strange object, the one-way iron piece has a limited range of transmitting messages, and it is a good tool for some weak transcendents.

But for transcendents of the level of Tang Qi and Sally, they can no longer be described as chicken ribs.

Even with the help of the power of Sally's mantra, it can only pass the message to Tang Qi in the form of "sending an email", and the delay generated in the middle is not only the distance, but also the filter of the dream country.

However, there are also advantages, the security and privacy of this old thing are extremely high, and the information transmitted inside can only be received by Tang Qi.

Sally looked at the piece of iron at work, the panic on her face gradually subsided, but her brow was still furrowed.

"I'm missing something, some threads of fate have escaped my gaze...... The existence behind that disgusting thing was not only aimed at me, but also other people, who could bring danger to him. ”

As she whispered, an indescribable aura burst out from Sally's body, it was an extremely high level, as if it touched some kind of "origin" power, it was fate.

The whole person was shrouded in invisible power, and Sally seemed to be completely detached from this world and in another dimension.

A look of hesitation flashed in her gray eyes, but it was quickly dispelled.

An important decision she'd been thinking about had an answer.

"I need to be stronger to help him. ”

As Sally's voice sounded, the fourth floor of the book tower seemed to be cut directly, an invisible and qualitative "line", densely enveloping everything, I don't know where to start and where to end.

Sally's palm leaned forward slightly, as if fiddling with something in the void.

As she moved, the space in front of her became a little distorted, as if it had been covered with a layer of gray color.

In the next moment, in the gray dimension, broken "threads" converge to form strange symbols, and no matter how proficient a polymath is in occult and semiotics, he cannot know the meaning of these symbols.

To understand them, one needs to have the power associated with fate.

For example, Sally, her current profession is not a Merada witch, she has chosen another path in the "Tree Secret Realm", she is a Witch of Destiny.

The symbols represent a transaction.

She, a deal with a terrifying and great will in the dark.

She didn't wait long at all, and in the face of her "inquiry", the great will hidden in the depths of the infinite dimension and seemed to be in a difficult situation gave a direct response.

But I saw wisps of gray and black mist gushing out, containing divine power very similar to Sally's body, and these mist quickly entangled, polluting those strange symbols one by one, causing them to disintegrate, and finally condensing a picture.

A pair of gray-black curved antlers against a blood-red background.

Beneath the antlers, a pair of eyes emerge that seem to bring endless bad luck.

The moment they looked at each other, the dimensions collapsed.

"Whew"

In front of the workbench, Sally seemed to have just woken up from a nightmare, and her breathing involuntarily became short.

But the corners of her mouth hooked up a smile.

In her mind, she received the response:

"The deal is done!"

......

Deep in the Sutron Mountains on the edge of Mihuang Prefecture, an area of wind-eroded stone pillars and huge ravines, there are remnants of an ancient civilization called "Sutron", mostly temples or caves with strange structures.

At this moment, among the stone pillars, Stana was running at great speed, her armor engraved with mysterious symbols was riddled with holes that had been corroded by some kind of attack.

Including the shield in her hand and the knight's sword she carried, they were all pitted.

Just as she was about to leave the area, something happened suddenly.

Her eyes, or all directions, plunged into darkness at the same time.

Snort!

Without warning, a viscous liquid like "black needles" completely enveloped Stana from the top of her head, under her feet, and around her body.

Stanna, whose body was still frozen in the air, her red hair was agitated, and her eyes were still full of tenacity, as if she would never give in.

Even though she already knew that something was going to happen to her.

As the strongest Knight of Light in Mystro today, she already has a good reputation within the Church of Light, and she also has many followers, and some fanaticals even think that sooner or later she will surpass the future Knight King Tristan Sophia.

The reason is simple, Stana has not been in the transcendent world for a long time, but her combat power has left the professional level and launched an attack towards the "legendary level".

But these are unpredictable futures, and now she faces attacks that she can't resist.

Just half an hour ago, the knight team that was exploring the "ruins" was suddenly attacked by these black liquids of unknown origin, and almost "annihilated" her subordinates in the blink of an eye.

A dozen knights of light bought her time to escape, and Stana, convinced that her subordinates had been attacked and had only fallen into a coma, unleashed all her combat power and tried to get out of danger first and go to the Secret Phoenix headquarters for help.

Now it seems that her strength is still not enough.

Feeling the remaining power in her body, Stana suddenly let go of the light sword and shield in her hand, which were already on the verge of limit, ignoring the "black needle" that shot towards her, without any space to dodge, and looked straight down, a large ugly black spot that had covered the ground at some point.

Composed of black liquid, it condensed into a hollow, ethereal face, with its large mouth opening and twisting in an exaggerated arc, as if it were emitting an incredibly disgusting grin.

"Let me see, what the hell are you...... What the hell!"

"Bang!"

Before Stana could finish her sentence, her whole body had turned into a meteorite and smashed down from the sky.

She let those black needles speed up and pierce into her body, just a white fist, the unimaginable power that had been brewing for a long time, exploded at this moment.

Strange powers!

It used to be one of Tang Qi's usual methods in the early stage, and after falling into Stanna's hands, it bloomed with extraordinary brilliance.

It was as if it was a "sun of light" and fell down.

The black needles melted and evaporated before they could fully invade Stanna's body.

And the ugly, disgusting hollow black face on the ground, at this moment, was like those knights who fought with Stanna but were accidentally hit by her punch, their mouths were already wide open, and they grinned to the extreme, and their empty eye sockets were distorted and opened in an instant.

Bang!

In the crumbling pit of the ground, white steam mixed with dust swept in all directions under the blast current.

Stana's armor was almost completely shattered, half-kneeling at the bottom of the pit, the strength of her whole body was gone, and the price of unleashing the power she had accumulated for a long time was that the muscles on her body were torn in large areas, and red blood spilled from the cracks in the armor.

Stana struggled to stay awake, her gaze piercing through the dust, and instantly, her pupils contracted violently.

Everywhere, in the crevices and corners of this almost destroyed ruin, black liquid began to gush out, and they surged and converged like leeches, forming a hollow and smiling face again, only many times smaller.

Ignoring the scorching steam that was still spewing, it swam towards Stana.

At its edges, the finely furred edges gradually alienated into strange tentacles, like a black, ugly skin that would envelop Stanna's whole being.

Unlike when she had attacked her men before, Stana felt an undisguised malice.

"This way of dying is too embarrassing!"

Just in the back of Steiner's mind, the thought crossed her mind.

Suddenly, the "black face" froze in mid-air, and the edge was alienated into a mouth again, and together with the exaggerated grinning mouth, an extremely sharp hiss was found, and the sound wave surged, it shrank into a ball, and then turned into a black arrow, shooting towards the inexplicable crack in the void in front of it.

Is it going to escape?

Why......?

Stana had just wondered in her mind, and suddenly she seemed to sense something, and her face flew with unconcealable joy, and in her eyes, an old, short figure condensed little by little.

It's a nun!

She was dressed in a gray-white and somewhat shabby nun's robe, her body seemed to be too old, and she seemed to have a kind smile on her wrinkled face, but in her eyes, it seemed to be sympathetic.

"Teacher!"

As Stana exclaimed, the old nun, who had just appeared, wordlessly looked at the black spot liquid that was about to escape.

Silently, an incomparably soft light appeared above the crack and the liquid.

The light shone down, and both began to fade.

No matter how sharp the liquid is, no matter how sharp it is, it can't prevent it from being erased.

Stana, who witnessed this scene, did not show surprise, her teacher personally took action, even if the other party was a "legendary" transcendent creature, the ending would not make any difference.

The next second, she felt the teacher's rough palm on top of her head.

The same soft glow spilled out, and Stana felt that the lost strength was quickly returning.

"Teacher, what's that?"

In Stanna's eyes, in addition to doubts, there was an undisguised desire for revenge.

She had thought that she could get the answer from her teacher immediately, and anyone in the Church of Light knew that her teacher was not only a terrifying powerhouse, but also a knowledgeable and wise man.

It's just that what she saw right away, but it was the old nun who thought about it for a while, frowned and shook her head.

"What does it want to do?"

Stana remembered that the strange dark spot liquid could have killed her subordinates, but she hadn't done that, and her goal seemed to be .......

The old nun seemed to fully understand Steina's thoughts, and before the word "I" could be uttered in her mind, the old nun shook her head again, and said in an old and soft voice: "No, the real target of that foreign object is probably your secret friend. ”

"Boom!"

As if hearing the words that shocked her, Stanna's movements as she stood up were visibly frozen, her red lips slightly open, and she fell into a speechless surprise.
