Chapter 61: Poker Knight
With Sean's order, the ghost dogs, who were comparable to military discipline, bowed down neatly, sniffed Hull's residual breath with their noses, and their erect triangular ears kept swinging back and forth, obviously not letting their guard down at all.
And Hull in the black fog obviously discovered this scene, except for the first test shot, he has been holding back and not making a move, as if he was deliberately avoiding Sean, but he didn't know what he was secretly planning.
Sensing the fluctuation of magic power in the air, he was vaguely uneasy, and poured a large amount of magic into his eyes to enhance the effect of 'spiritual vision', but he still couldn't see the essence of this black fog, and could only vaguely see the magic power that belonged to Hull hidden in the mist.
Did he find out where I was by the magic that drifted through the mist?
Procrastinating for time?
Aren't you afraid that I'll turn around and run?
Sean, who couldn't find Hull's figure, seemed a little anxious at the moment, originally planning to rely on the ghost dog's sensitive sense of smell to find Hull's hiding figure, so that he could break the black fog in front of him.
Now it seems that his thoughts are a little simple, the noses of the ghost dogs are disturbed by the magic in the mist, and they can't search for useful signals, and it seems that they are not of much use except for warning.
"Despair Mist. ”
Sean pondered for a moment, knowing that it would always be against him to procrastinate, as soon as he raised his arm, the magic began to pour in, and he tentatively released this rather familiar magic, and in an instant a similar but completely different mist drifted away, blending into the surrounding black fog.
The effect is much better than expected.
After the two mist merged, the originally calm black mist instantly began to tumble like boiling water, and finally gradually dissipated under the interaction.
Seeing this, the corners of Sean's mouth couldn't help but hook an arc, especially when he saw the blurred figure that appeared in the black fog not far away as the fog dissipated, and the smile became more and more obvious.
Although I don't know what he's doing on the ground, it's obvious that he wins or loses as long as he finds you.
Got you, Mr. Hull.
......
The crowd outside the field gathered around a mirror sponsored by the captain, carefully watching the battle in the black fog, but when the final stroke of the magic array under Hull's feet was completed, Lance, who was also a night passer, quickly took out his wallet and shouted: "Captain, I raise, I want to buy Hull to win." ”
"Huh?"
Except for Elf, the others turned their heads to stare at Lance with puzzled expressions.
Hank even opened his mouth and asked, "Isn't Sean the dominant now?"
"No, you can't. Elf simply rejected the shameless Lance, turned to Hank and the others and said, "Sean is about to taste failure, and your money is going to be mine again." ”
"What?"
Just when everyone was questioning, the picture in the mirror changed instantly.
In the black mist
Sean, who was charging with Miss Freya and the ghost dogs with his gun, sensed the magic that suddenly fluctuated violently, frowned and stopped moving forward, without hesitation, and shot directly at the looming Hull.
Click!
It's hard to imagine that the revolver that was still intact just now, and that I still pay attention to maintaining it at any time, actually jammed at this critical moment, the firing pin did not shoot the bullet in the nest, there was no time to clean the bullet, and I was afraid to continue shooting, which led to the explosion of the chamber, thus damaging the pistol that was passed down to my adoptive father.
It's bad luck.
Sean frowned again, and had no choice but to pull out the 'Night' dagger, and the magic power in his hand instantly poured in, and the originally black dagger became deeper and deeper.
"Sluggish. ”
A black light shot out from the dagger, and in the blink of an eye, it turned into a large black net in the air, and shrouded Hel.
Judging from the magic fluctuations on the 'net', it is a few stronger than when it was against Hank before, and after using the dark night as the medium for spellcasting, it will increase the magic power by 20%, but it is much weaker than the second ability, which is to break through the present world and the spirit world.
There are a lot of Gollum babies.
Sean turned his head to look at Gollum, who was still motionless in the distance, wondering if he was borrowing a defensive seal from it.
On the opposite side of the battlefield, with the despair spirit mist released by Sean and the black fog released by Hel, the conflict intensified, and Hull's figure in the darkness was completely exposed.
I saw him raise his head and calmly look at the magic coming towards him in the air, followed by the skeleton lady who slapped his sword at him, and the ghost dogs who surrounded him silently, without the slightest worry.
Instead, he squeezed out a rare smile on his cold face and said, "I won." ”
Before the words fell, when Sean was about to retreat when he heard the words, there was a sudden silver light under Hull's feet, outlining five intersecting circular complex magic arrays, at this moment he was half-kneeling in the intersecting position, his left hand on the ground, looking at his eyes flashing with inexplicable brilliance, opening and closing the corners of his mouth again, and letting out a gentle and kind murmur: "Unreal." ”
What's going on?
For a while, Sean and Miss Freya stopped all kinds of movements at the same time, and they all fell into a strange pause, one of the upper and lower eyelids flew, as if they couldn't resist the sudden sleepiness, and the ghost light in the helmet was reduced, as if the soul fire was frozen, and the body was motionless.
As for the ghost dogs, they were even more unbearable, lying on their sides on the ground as early as the beginning, sleeping deeply.
Hel allowed the unaffected magic in mid-air to fall on his body, and he didn't have time to react, and after falling to the ground with a thud, he used the few magic powers in his body to resist the negative magic released by Sean.
......
Sean, who suddenly came back to his senses, immediately realized that something was wrong, he was obviously in the training ground of the station, but now he was on a battlefield.
A real battlefield.
The smooth stone slabs under your feet are replaced by the rocky Gobi Desert at some point, and the sunset on the horizon reflects the desolation of the scenery.
And hundreds of meters away, there was a group of strange soldiers of various colors and with distinct appearances, riding equally strange war horses, making a gesture of imminent charge.
Dreams?
Sean, who was muttering to himself in his heart, looked at the strange scene in his eyes, and thought of the magic array at Hull's feet, nodded thoughtfully, and shouted to Miss Skeleton not far away: "Miss Freya, prepare to fight." ”
Click!
Freya, who came back to her senses, immediately nodded, stretched out her left hand and snapped her fingers, and a familiar white bone war horse appeared in front of her.
Then she straddled the war horse, stood the rusty sword on her chest, and after saluting Sean in a dignified manner, she dragged the reins and turned the horse, raised her right hand holding the sword, and swung it down forcefully, and the horse that sat down tacitly moved its four hooves and ran forward.
A kind of ambition to fall into battle, and the spirit of death and lifelessness bursts out.
Looking at Freya's tragic figure from afar, the corners of Sean's mouth couldn't help but twitch again, are you performing a drama?
Or maybe I haven't been able to see the real you?
Boom, boom, boom...
Facing the Skeleton Lady who was charging forward, the knights of the enemy lined up neatly raised the knight's spear in their hands, drove the war horses under their crotches, and turned into a sharp blade and swung towards the two.
Following the smoke and dust raised by the horses' hooves, Sean, who was far behind Miss Freya, finally saw what the strangeness of the knights was.
The soldier on the war horse wore a traditional cavalry helmet on his head, but when the distance was closer, Sean realized that this was a soldier who did not have a head at all, and the helmet was directly embedded in their flat rectangular body as a head, and the front of the body was also printed with various playing card suits, and the limbs were made of triangular pyramids as black as ink, and he held a paper knight's spear in his hand.
The crotch horse is also made of pieces of paper, and the head and limbs are made of triangular pyramids, but the body is replaced with a flat cylinder.
Is this Mr. Hull's fairytale kingdom?
Although Sean was secretly mocking in his heart, he was not too careless, judging from the aura of those poker knights, their magic power was not lower than the first rank, especially the knight who was the first and had the king's suit printed in front of him, and vaguely saw that the concentration of magic power was not inferior to his own.
It seems that he should have lost, sometimes quantity is much stronger than quality, there is not a saying in the East, a huge number of ants can bite elephants to death.
Knowing that this should be a dream, Sean still can't crack it, after all, except for the poker knights who have been in close contact with Miss Freya, their strange appearances, there is not much difference between the real and the real here.
Do you want to throw in the towel?
Never mind.
Looking at Miss Skeleton, who was having a great time, Sean gave up this plan, the dagger in his hand suddenly shone gray, and he accelerated the pace of chasing, and when he was about to help Freya, who was fighting a hundred in the distance, he suddenly felt that half of his magic power was empty in an instant.
A wave of weakness that surged inward, causing Sean to immediately fall to the ground on his stomach.
Feeling like your body is being hollowed out.
Sean, who was lying on the ground, endured his drowsiness, looked up at the battlefield with difficulty, and saw Miss Skeleton in the 'hard battle', with a wave of her arm, ten dark blue magic arrays appeared around her in a blink of an eye, and in the gray fog that spread, an astonishing killing intent erupted, and as the magic array dispersed, ten knights wearing black heavy armor, holding spears, and carrying bows and crossbows appeared behind her.
The armored and white-boned war horses, holding the knights on the horses, smelled the iron and blood of war, and the soul fire in their eyes immediately flourished, and at the same time, they raised their spears and struck at the nearest poker knight.
The unexpected came as scheduled.
Just when Freya was happy, the knights summoned by herself behind her did twist their bodies, and turned into wisps of gray smoke and dissipated, and then sensed that the magic power to maintain their existence began to be in short supply, and after splitting the spear that stabbed him, he turned his head to look behind him suspiciously.
Click!
Freya looked at Sean, who was lying on the ground, giving a thumbs up, unconscious, with a puzzled face, obviously he was about to win, why did he, who was the master, faint?
Destined to not get an answer, her body was dragged back to the spirit world by a gust of gray mist.
