The impact flashed with the light, and everyone was plunged into darkness. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

The source of this impact and brilliance was the red magic array in Brand's hand, which he called the Aurora Core.

Unlike the impact of ordinary magic explosions, the impact of the Aurora Core Burst is dominated by a special brilliance, which is extremely penetrating, and ordinary magic barriers and enchanted armor cannot block its damage at all, but compared to ordinary items such as Alchemy Burst Bombs, the Aurora Core requires an outrageous amount of magic power.

Because of the need to imprison a huge amount of magic power in a small magic array, the core of the entire production process is in an extremely unstable state, and the slightest carelessness will explode and turn into ashes along with the maker, even those well-known mechanical and alchemy masters rarely make such items.

But Brand not only made this Aurora Core, but it also looks like he has made a lot of changes to it.

The light that seemed to pierce through everything did not harm his body, and even avoided the dark shadows that obscured his body around him.

But Brand, who fell limply to the ground, did not wake up.

Blood began to pour from his eyes, nose and mouth, and the magical enchantment on his skin flickered intermittently, as if he was battling some kind of power.

And as the terrifying light finally vanished, a violent blast of magic reverberated back and forth in the space.

The earth first melted into a large piece of glass in the light, and then was shattered into fine crystals by the magic power, which looked like a vast white sand. The frost and lightning of the dust storm were gone, replaced by patches of fire from the clash of magical powers, and the nameless flames burned in the dust like the terrifying dragon flames spewed out by the dragon in the invisible dust storm.

Losing its restraints, the furious magic quickly subsided, piling up and squeezing into the space, but the heat released by the light and flames did not dissipate.

From the sky to the ground, the temperature of the entire area rises dramatically, and it soon turns into a furnace of flames.

The cage of life has not disappeared.

Faith didn't die.

He lay dying on the white sand.

Bruises, or rather, mutilation.

Blood gushed from those horrible wounds, and they dried up in the heat.

He wanted to mobilize the remaining magic power in his body, but found that the magic barrier of the life-sustaining cage was already a great burden, and under the pressure of the rich magic power of this space, under the scorching temperature, he could not pump out a trace of magic power at all, and he could not even take out the potions that were kept in his storage runes.

It's hard to even move.

"Ho...... Ho......" He gasped for breath and turned around with great difficulty supporting himself with his withered hand.

Looking sideways at Brand not far away, the magic enchantment on his body was still flickering, fighting against the power of the contract.

"No...... I'm not dead...... I'm going to kill this traitor with my own hands...... Kill him with your own hands!" Firth gasped, "You can't just wait...... I'm not reconciled to ......"

He fumbled with his withered hand and grasped a silver dagger.

The end of the dagger was inlaid with a red gem, it was the dagger that Eminor had pierced his shoulder before, he squeezed out and fell to the ground, but it was not ruined by the light just now, it was cold, but it was still sharp.

Faith gripped the dagger and began to slowly move towards Brand.

He had only one arm left, half of his leg missing, and his torso even more broken, and he had to gasp for breath for a long time every time he moved, but he stared at Brand like a dying animal, a worm cut off by the waist, clinging to the scorching white sand, struggling to move.

However, after a few moments, his body suddenly stiffened.

Although he was extremely weak, he could still feel the magical enchantment of the Life Cage that was connected to his life.

At this moment, a person slowly crossed the border and entered his life cage.

Faith struggled frantically, he was not willing to end like this, at least let him kill the traitor, at least let him cut off Brand's head himself.

Madness, as if out of thin air, he kicked forward twice and even held himself up low, but then fell on the white sand in a ridiculous position.

"Ho...... Ho ......"

Because of his accident, the dagger brought out a long gash in his thigh, and the blood in the rolled flesh quickly dried up.

But it doesn't matter anymore.

The man's footsteps had come to him.

"Faith...... Professor?" is a familiar voice.

It was Strayer's voice.

……

Strayer hesitated for a long time before the enchantment.

Through the pentagram rune, he sensed the location of the five members of Morin's group, not far beyond the boundaries of the academy, and with some doubts, he cautiously came alone. He had a lot of precious magical items on him, all of which, like pentagram runes, had been thrown to him like garbage, more than enough to protect himself.

As he approached the position he had perceived, he slowed down, using a hidden object, and slowly moved forward.

Passing a shallow valley and a pile of rubble, he suddenly stopped.

On the relatively flat gravel ground ahead, he didn't see a few people.

But there was a clear sense from the pentagram communication rune, and the five members of Merlin's group were not far in front of him, and no matter what, they should all appear in his current field of vision.

He first ruled out that this was a trap for him.

Because there is no reason.

No one but him knew that he had a sixth pentagram rune, and he didn't even tell Osmond.

Then it was determined that the pentagram rune was indeed still on Morin and the others.

Then you can be sure that they are not far ahead of you.

Magic can go wrong, vision can be deceived, and Bob's Prophecy magic can be obscured, but the Pentagram mechanical communication rune won't be a problem, and in many cases, it's much more reliable than those spells.

Strayer probed carefully, and sure enough, he found a layer of illusionary structures a few steps in front of him.

As his perception extended, he was surprised to find that the area covered by the illusion was incomparably large, and from what he had explored, it could be inferred that it should be a hemispherical area, clasped above the earth like half an eggshell, but on closer it looked like a slightly curved wall.

Could it be that something happened to Morin and them?

He carefully sensed the pentagram runes again, and found that although their positions had not changed much, they could be found to be active from close induction.

Strayer frowned.

He inspires a magic card.

A small cloud of green flame appeared in front of him, and in the middle of the flame floated a crystal clear eyeball.

One Ring of Magic [Exploring the Eyeballs].

Unlike psychic perception, the Exploratory Eye is more like an independent signaling device, and does not have a strong connection with the owner, so it is very concealed, and it is difficult to track the owner even if it is discovered by others.

Exploring the eyeballs continued to send one image after another, and gradually went deeper into the illusion.

Strayer's face was shocked, and he realized that the illusion was followed by a dim and manic scene.

He controlled the Exploratory Eyeball to move forward, trying to see more clearly, but for some reason, suddenly lost control of the Exploratory Eyeball.

Nor did any footage come back.

After much trying, he finally settled on an area half a meter wide, where the exploration eyeball could be steadily transmitted back to the picture, although it was not clear, but he could barely make out a few figures.

The five members of Morin's group were the closest, and there was a heavily armored swordsman beside them, and the swordsman and Morin were not in conflict.

Farther away, there was a black shadow and a stocky figure, very vague, Strayer couldn't make out who the two were, and looking at where the heavily armored swordsman stood, it seemed to protect Merlin and they confronted the two figures in the distance.

Before he could look any longer, the stocky man pulled a mark from the black figure.

Then a dazzling flash of light flashed, and he lost control of his exploration eyeballs.

Strayer's expression was a little distorted, and his black eyes revealed an extremely complicated gaze, and he was slightly stunned for a moment.

He didn't know, but he was sure he recognized the mark, it was a pupilless eye, and he had stumbled upon a glimpse of it beside those people. It's the people who have thrown a lot of precious things at their disposal, the people who have to obey even the skeleton that has been near him all the time.

By the time he sent an exploration eyeball in again, the entire area had become unrecognizable.

The sky is a flowing fire, and the ground is white sand.

All of them fell to the ground in an unknown state of death.

After observing for a while, I didn't find any movement, and those who fell to the ground were also motionless, maybe they had lost their life, maybe they fell into a coma, maybe they were seriously injured and dying, although they didn't know what the flashing light was, but the ground turned into white sand, and it was extremely powerful.

He glanced in the direction of the academy, then at the motionless Morin and frowned.

After a moment's hesitation, Strayer took a deep breath, activated two magical items, and stepped into the enchantment.

After taking a few steps, feeling the surroundings become hot, he summoned a small layer of shield around him. Tentatively stepping back, he found that there was an invisible wall behind him blocking his retreat, and he did not panic and continued to move forward.

As his vision deepened, the shock on his face grew.

What was the light that had just burst out of the figure's hand?! Why was it so powerful! Why was the magic of this space so strong and so hot, and he couldn't feel the slightest outside, could it be that even the magic and heat could not escape except for those who entered?

Strayer felt a faint hint of remorse in his heart, but then he erased it, thinking about the pupilless eye mark just now, and he regained his firmness.

Immediately, he saw the Morin and the others clearly, they all still had a slight breath, and Strayer's eyes flickered. Then he noticed that the heavily armored warrior, she also had some magic fluctuations on her body, but the armor was rotten, and she thought that she had helped Morin and the others block most of the light.

Strayer was about to step forward to investigate Morin's condition carefully, but suddenly noticed movement not far away.

This was no small surprise, and Strayer turned sharply to see a stump struggling to move on the sand, and because of the dust, he thought that the broken body was lifeless.

He immediately checked his magic items to make sure there was nothing wrong, and carefully walked to the side.

He immediately recognized the mutilated body.

"Faith...... Professor?" Strayer asked hesitantly.

……

Faith was almost desperate, he had never expected the situation to turn out like this.

He led Minerma and Morin here, although Minelma was stronger than expected, but if he continued to fight, and gave him a few more Orr time, he would definitely be able to win the final victory, after all, the heavy armor had left several scars on him, as long as the perverted armor was slowly worn off, where would the little girl who was less than double ten be his opponent.

He was sure to leave before the Divine Law Enforcement Team from the Temple of Nature arrived.

The whole plan went almost perfectly until the traitor from Brand showed up.

He reluctantly glanced at Brand not far away.

The person who came here at this time could only be Brand's helper. Because of the entire clean-up task, except for finding Brand to engrave the enchantment of this life cage, he did not reveal the slightest thing to anyone, and even Brand did not tell him the specific time of the operation, and it was impossible for others to know.

With so many years of experience, he is convinced of this.

It's just that this traitor has been planning for a long time, not only did he know the time of his action, but he also found a helper......

Faith thought desperately.

He lay in the sand in decay, ready to cut off his life, Brand's traitor was still fighting against the power of the contract, as long as he died completely, the power of the contract would be stronger, and Brand's chances of survival would be smaller.

Even if he died, he would never let that traitor live.

Feith's withered hand gripped the dagger again, ready to pierce his own eyebrows.

He really didn't expect to hear Strayer's voice.

"Faith...... Professor?"

Faith recognized the voice at once, and couldn't help but be ecstatic.

Because he deliberately paid attention to this young man.

Because this teenager is one of them.

To be exact, a member of their periphery, or at least someone they control.

What's more, this information is only known to him, and Brand is not known, which means that he will never be Brand's helper.

He was of a higher rank than Brand, and in the summer he had received an order from above that Strayer was an important member of the periphery, and that he was to be kept safe at Iluvita Academy, and that other specific related tasks were to be taken care of by Strayer's superiors.

The directive didn't say who was responsible, and he didn't ask.

Different squads perform different tasks and are generally not related to each other and do not exchange information in parallel, which maximizes organizational tightness.

This instruction was passed to him by his superiors in one direction, and he did not inform Brand.

"Quick...... The man who hides in the shadows. Faith gestured slightly and pointed at Brand.

The dark shadow still concealed Brand's physical appearance, which was a perfect statement.

"He's a cultist...... I'm trying to protect Merlin, they're seriously injured and can't move, so go and kill him!"

"Huh?" Strayer was stunned.

"Don't hesitate, we'll all die when he wakes up!" Faith screamed with difficulty.

"By the way, stab him in the center of the eyebrows with this, and you may not be able to penetrate his camouflage defenses with magic. He let go of the silver dagger he was gripping tightly, this silver dagger was made of something that was unexpectedly strong in piercing magic, and it must have been able to pass through the black shadows on Brand's body, and those black shadows were a kind of protective magic even if they were disguised.

"Huh?" Strayer hesitated for a moment, picking up the dagger from Feith's withered hand.

"By the way, Professor, I just saw Maureen and they were injured and unconscious—" Strayer said.

"What?!" Faith coughed heavily, he quickly sensed it carefully, and found that Minerma and Morin were not dead, although the breath was weak, but there was really still breath.

Immediately, he sensed a broken rune in Merlin's hand.

"It turned out to be Ed Warrend's rune...... That guy is still alive......" Faith thought for a moment, he knew that he was out of shape, and the expression on his face changed several times, and finally cooled down.

Since he had to kill Morin and the others, he could no longer hide his identity.

"Strayer Victor. He said, "Do you know this?"

A pupilless mark appeared on Fez's forehead.

"Ah! you're one of my superiors!" Strayer looked shocked.

"Yes, there was an accident in the execution of the organizational task, and here is ...... My command," Firth said slowly:

"The shadow man, the female warrior, and the little imps of Morin, all killed. ”

"Huh?" Strayer's face showed trepidation, "What, how?"

"The task of the organization. Feith said.

"Can you tell me more about the organization, my superiors rarely tell me. Strayer asked.

"Wait a minute, let's go and kill those people completely. Faith replied.

"It's so close to the academy—"

"No one will know, there is a magical enchantment here, otherwise those professors in the academy would have come a long time ago. Seeing that Strayer was hesitant, Faith hurriedly persuaded him, he was seriously injured at this time and could not move, and his tone did not dare to be too tough.

"Makes sense, but what about after that?" Strayer asked.

"Then a fire burns to ashes, and no one can trace the ...... on your head," Firth replied as he gasped, "You are a member of our organization, and I will not harm you, swear by the name of the moon god." ”

"Really, even if I kill someone, I won't be tracked down by the great magicians?" Strayer asked in a low voice.

"Of course, quick...... Dot, the shadow man will wake up in a while......" After saying a lot of words, Faith felt that his physical condition was getting worse again.

"Really, can this dagger really pierce the skulls of those men?" Strayer asked again, his forehead being the strongest part of his body.

Faith was a little impatient, this young peripheral member was still so hesitant, how could he be trained, hadn't he killed anyone?

He gasped and snorted, "Of course, it's fast-"

He didn't finish.

Because the silver dagger pierced the center of his brow.

Strayer drew his dagger, blood splattering with his brains on his calm face, staining it a little hideous.

Without hesitation, he stabbed hard again.

Then pull it out and then prick it again.

Pull it out again, stab it again.

Until he chopped Feith's fat head into pieces, and his frightened eyes were cut into three pieces.

He finally stopped, wiped his face, and showed a sneer.

Then he stared at the minced meat that had gradually turned into charred jerky in the heat.

"I forgot to tell you...... You are the one I hate the most. He whispered.

He wiped the dagger, wiping the dried blood and brains from it. He is a legal officer, and his physical strength is not great, but this dagger is unexpectedly useful, but it is a pity that something from unknown origin still has to be left here, and he is afraid of attracting others to track him down.

Even from the very beginning he had woven magic on his hands to avoid direct contact with the dagger.

Then he walked over to the shadow man with a glittering dagger in his hand.

He remembered that a pupilless mark had also flown out of this dark shadow, and no matter what the reason was, there was no need to keep him.

Strayer raised his dagger high, spotted the figure on the forehead, and stabbed it hard.

However, his hands were imprisoned in mid-air.

Closely, almost he could plunge a dagger into this man's head.

However, Brand woke up.

He was weak, but he woke up.

He imprisoned the dagger that had stabbed him, and the boy who held it.

The disguise was delicate, but Brand recognized the boy as Strayer at a glance, and he could even bring together the magical items that the boy was activating.

Suddenly, he saw Strayer appear here, and a hint of surprise flashed in his bloody eyes, and he glanced around.

The silver dagger, the headless corpse of Feth, the minerma with tattered armor, and the faint Morin with a faint breath.

Seeing that Minerma and Morin were still alive, a trace of surprise flashed in his bloody eyes again, and then he found the broken rune in Morin's hand, and after a while, a sudden look flashed in his eyes, Ed Warrend was actually alive, thinking that he was on the fifth floor of Anna Ancient Magic Tower, which was good information.

And he survived the power of the contract and won the bet.

It didn't deviate much from the plan, except for the teenager in front of him.

His gaze returned to Strayer.

Glancing at the pentagram rune in Strayer's hand, and then at the hands of Morin and the others, he finally understood.

Including Strayer's identity.

Because there is only one set of pentagram runes in this world that has a sixth rune, and that set of runes is made by him.

A casual work from a long time ago, it was handed over to it along with many other items.

"You just have to listen. Brand used a female voice and did not let go of Strayer's incarnation.

"You're an outside member of the Order, but since you've chopped off his head, I'm not your enemy. ”

"Although you still want to kill me, for the sake of you not very much like the organization, I will spare your life. ”

"It's just that you must never mention today's events, and if you leak a little, you will die, and no one will be able to save you. ”

Brand thought for a moment and continued:

"You'll wake up in your own room in the afternoon, there's no record from the House Elf, and when asked, you'll say you're tired and go back to your room to rest, and it's better to think of a few more slightly different scenarios, and you'll only repeat the same thing if you're lying. I'll come back to you if necessary, and the rest is up to you. ”

"Finally, I would like to give you another piece of advice, although you are not bound by the power of contract, if you want to break away from the organization, you must at least cross the line of mortal worlds, otherwise it will be a fool's dream. ”

With that, Brand knocked Strayer unconscious.

Then he looked at Feith's headless body.

"Since the cage of life has not been broken, you are not dead, do you have any last words to explain? Brand said calmly.

A mental fluctuation came, condensing a faint silhouette in front of Brand, the image of Feith, who scolded Brand with all his insults.

But Brand didn't have a wave on his face.

After a while, as if he was too tired of scolding, and as if he had finally seen a little away, Faith gradually quieted down, and he sighed:

"You say, can we go back when we die?"

"I hope so. Brand was silent for a long time: "It's not too bad to return to the embrace of the moon god. ”

"If I don't go back, if you go back one day, if they're still around—"

"I'll take care of them for you. Brand said.

Faith nodded, palm facing outward.

To show eternal secrets.

His body was on fire, every piece of charred flesh, every drop of blood that had been spilled, and at the same time it was on fire.

Brand watched in silence as Faith reduced to ashes until there was no trace left.

The cage of life disappeared, the heat and magic quickly dispersed, Brand's figure flashed slightly, and the unconscious Strayer disappeared.

A moment later, several people appeared here one after another, and after another moment, several more people appeared here one after another, including Brand in a black robe.

They looked at the area in shock.

"I'll take these students to Ms. Sinise at the Tree of Life. ”

After saying that, Brand waved his hand and disappeared with Minerma and Morin.
