Chapter VII: Detachment

[Antoun, this way.] Pen %Fun %Pavilion www.biquge.info】

Following the instructions given to him by Rogerinti through the telepathic link, Antoun blessed his whole body with his magic and took a step forward in the shadows of the building, and the "instantaneous" effect immediately led him to the two of them to cross another wave of "blockades" of the Holy See.

Listening to the footsteps fading behind him, he sighed heavily.

Originally, there was no need to be so troublesome, but through the special induction between him and Luo Jielinti, he realized that although his master's so-called "forbidden technique" was unsuccessful after the previous duel, it still brought a great burden to her body.

Out of care for her, he wanted to avoid fighting as much as possible, which is why he became the current mode of stealth detachment.

At the same time, I have to say that although the women who are the masters of the puppets seem to be thinking about them in their words, the troops of the "Holy See" are not so dull. Probably drawn to the battle between the two, Antoun encountered more enemies after leaving the duel than before the duel.

So in the interval of hiding and walking, he also took the time to learn some information about this "blockade area" of the Holy See from Luo Jielinti.

Strictly speaking, this is not the real world of the earth where Luo Jielinti and her family live, but a "mirror space" constructed by a large magic enchantment. In this space, which perfectly replicates the structure of reality, the power of all magic is greatly increased, and the damage caused to inorganic objects such as buildings is not fed back into the real world.

To be honest, when she explained this, Antoun's heart relaxed a little, although he was known as a demon god in the other world, he was not a saboteur. After the initial release of "Thunder", he had a second thinking about repairing the block, but fortunately there was no need to worry about it now.

As for the humans who were injured by his attack, if the humans died in the barrier, they were really dead, but what did that have to do with him? He's not a saboteur, and he's not a good man.

Far from it. Therefore, according to Roger Linti, to break away from this "blockade zone" means that they have to find a "special point" in this barrier that connects with reality. This "peculiarity" may be in a building or in an alley.

Although Antoun has successfully transformed the detection magic of this world, making it have an effect that it did not have in the first place, it also brings him the inexplicable sequelae of causing his eyes to turn golden when used, which is enough to prove that his understanding of the magic theory of this world cannot accomplish all kinds of things.

Therefore, the main work of guiding the way to the "peculiar point" still has to be completed by Luo Jielinti.

Incidentally, according to Rogerinti, it would be best to use the "peculiarities" they had when they first entered the space.

Unfortunately, it had been closed by the forces of the "Holy See" that followed it - this was not realized before Antoun was summoned, and the members of the "Yugutrahir" who had come there in order to escape were ambushed by the "Holy See" and suffered heavy losses.

That's why Rogerinti summoned Antoun in that luxury hotel building.

In this way, Antun may have to thank the people of the "Holy See" in a sense, otherwise he might still be trapped in an unknown alien space.

"So, where do we go next?" The smell of the 'Holy See' guys seems to be everywhere, and I can't judge the 'peculiarity' by the number of people gathered. ”

Now that there are no obvious enemies around, there is no need for the two of them to use the telepathic link to talk, that is also an act of consuming mana, and it has already made Antun a little embarrassed to trouble her to find a route, and he doesn't want to bring her more meaningless physical burden.

"Well...... Let's go over there, I feel that the 'mystery' over there is relatively thin. ”

Luo Jielinti's voice didn't look particularly weak because of her body's weakness, probably because the pride in her heart didn't allow her to show weakness. Antoun didn't debunk her as he took the step, but he became intrigued by a word in her words.

"'Mystery'?

Luo Jielinti replied with a "grace", and paused as if thinking about how to explain it to Antoun before continuing.

"In our world, things that are imperceptible, incomprehensible, and uncontrollable are called 'mysteries'. And the so-called magician is actually a synonym for a person who pursues the 'mystery'. ”

"Oh...... Is there a so-called magician in this world?"

Thinking of a certain month's work that existed on the other side of the earth in his hometown, Antoun couldn't help but ask.

"Yes, one step further than the magicians - those who can serve the 'mysterious' among them will be called 'magicians' with awe. ”

Hearing this, Antun subconsciously frowned, although he knew a little about a certain month's works, but it was all because of his friends, and in fact, he didn't study it very seriously. Coupled with the fact that so many years have passed, and the memory loss caused by "incomplete summoning", he doesn't remember the setting very well, but he feels that Luo Jielinti's words seem to be somewhat similar to the things in it, but not quite right.

"Wait a minute, as I understand it, magic is actually a 'mysterious' way, right? But you call yourself a magician and not a magician...... No, wait, is it because of the development of human society......"

"That's right, Antoun, as you imagined. When the concept of magic first took shape, magicians could not use the magic we use today, they were only seekers in search of the unattainable. At the same time, for the people of that time, this world can be described as a world full of 'mysteries'. ”

There was no need for Luo Jielin to say more, Antoun naturally took over the topic.

β€œβ€¦β€¦ However, not only the progress of the magic world, but also the development of human beings has also lost many 'mysteries' in this world. The existence of magicians has gradually been replaced by a large number of magicians, and some "mysteries" that used to be only magicians can perform are also widely spread through methods called magic. I'm right. ”

"Yes. ”

Luo Jielinti affirmed Antoun's reasoning, and he nodded secretly, thinking that it was still expected, but this left a more important question.

"Is there a real magician in this world right now?"

"Yes, there are only five magicians left in the world...... No, there may only be four of them now. ”

For her hesitation, Antoun had some kind of guess.

"You've said before that historically, the culmination of 'humans' was to reach Sequence Four, but now it sounds like magicians can no longer be classified as humans, but can be equivalent to Heroic Spirits?"

In a sense, it is. ”

That is to say, in addition to the other seven who appear as Heroic Spirits, that is, there are at least three Sequence 3 in the full state of true ability, and there are at least four magicians whose level is comparable to that of Heroic Spirits, and there may be similar characters on the "Holy See" side, such as saints and the like.

Thinking about this, the corners of Antun's mouth unconsciously curled, he completely forgot that he was in an "incomplete state" and now only had Sequence Seven on his level, and his actual combat strength was only Sequence Six at most, and he had just been seriously injured by a "puppet" made by another Heroic Spirit.

The experience of being a demon god has more or less changed his personality, and he still expects more opponents who are equal to him than he hopes to be invincible in this world.

Of course, for now, the "doll" woman just now can be counted as one.

After finally calming down the restlessness in his heart and putting away his contempt for the combat power of this world a little, out of curiosity, he asked about the "enemy" in front of him.

"Having said that, can you accept that these people who are pursuing us - what kind of organization is the 'Holy See'? It doesn't seem to be the same thing as secular religion, and it's like a magician. ”

"It is true that the 'Holy See' is not the same thing as many religions in reality, but there are similarities between the two. The unimportant ones aside, their main course of action for now is to protect the stability of the real world, i.e. from 'mysterious' forces. This includes the expulsion of the 'non-human' species that have an impact on reality, and incidentally the restraint of the magicians who use the 'mysterious' for their own ends. ”

"It sounds a bit like 'cop'. ”

"If it weren't for the fact that they sometimes look at us with tinted glasses, I would agree with you. ”

"That's right. Did they act on the premise that they thought that the appearance of the 'Heroic Spirit' would have a huge impact on reality, and then they wanted to punish you and the 'Eugutrahir' to whom you belonged who might summon the 'Heroic Spirit'?"

"That's pretty much it. ”

After understanding the cause and effect, Antun could only smile bitterly, and after doing it for a long time, it was actually only because of himself-oh, it should be the rare magic prop that can summon the "Heroic Spirit" to have this situation. It seems that no matter what world it is, if someone wants to, there are reasons for disputes everywhere.

It doesn't help to think too much. Now that the two of them have already gossiped for a long time, and at the same time they have bypassed many "Holy See" searches during the pause in speech, something different finally appeared in the "mirror world" that is almost indistinguishable from the real world.

This difference is not to say that there is anything visually special, but when approaching the side of a building that looks like an antique shop, Antoun clearly feels that there is a certain sense of dissonance in the space there.

"That's it, let me go first, Anthun. ”

Antoun crouched down slightly as she hugged Artina, and after letting Rogie Linti get off his back, he saw her walk towards the door of the shop.

"Is this really it?"

"Of course, Antun should also feel the disobedience. Maybe because you don't know much about the magic theory of our world, so let's briefly explain - this 'mirror world' is a world full of 'mysteries', and the real real world, 'mysteries' have long been suppressed to unimaginable levels. The junction of the two is the thinnest place in the world, which is what we commonly call the 'peculiarity'. ”

Luo Jielinti put her hand on the old doorknob, and did not mean to insert the key, so she twisted it slightly. Under Antoun's watchful eye, the door opened.

"Come on, to celebrate our success in getting out. Let me show you the scenery of my world. ”

This time, the girl magician smiled a little weakly and held out her hand to him, and he gladly responded.

So, the world changed.
