Ustengra, Section 6

The development of Yiqiē is unexpected, and the changes of Yiqiē are also reasonable. As Alice drew her sword back and watched the blood on her body slide down dripping. She was surprised to find that her troubles had been solved.

Minnie Mouse was unharmed, and the location she was in at the moment was undoubtedly a safe place, and more importantly, the previous assassination had not attracted anyone's attention.

Great.

Except that the effect of shadow protection is about to fade due to the effect of killing intent, Yiqiē is very good. - She picked up the tawny birch staff that had fallen to the ground, and the invisible magic power brought it into the shadows of her will.

- Ghouls are more sensitive to the smell of blood than normal people, but this cane may be able to confuse them.

Well, it's time to go.

But before then, there are a few things that need to be taken care of.

"Stay here, don't move. The swordsman in the shadows tilted his head and said. The coldness and coldness in her tone even she couldn't imagine. But......

[You have to do it like this, if you don't do this, there is no way to suppress the restlessness in your heart. 】

Alice deliberately turned her gaze away from Minnie, she didn't even want to talk to Minnie Mouse face to face. Although the inexplicable attraction will diminish with her own concentration, the influence will still be there.

In extremely focused battles or confrontational scenes, the effect may be negligible. For example, when I saw a dragon in Mosar's basement. At that time, the essence, will, and mood of her whole body were completely concentrated, and she would not feel even if there was an earthquake outside...... However, this is rare after all, and as long as you relax a little, Minnie's influence on her will become noticeable.

It was like a bunch of little paws scratching at the heart. If she stayed, she didn't know what she would do.

Alice is sure she doesn't have strange fetishes. Because when the dragon touched her, she didn't feel any joy other than her body's natural reactions. Not a single slight, not a single bit. But it was precisely because of this that she definitely didn't want to get out of control.

[If you get out of control, something terrible will happen.] 】

Whatever that is, it is never allowed to happen. 】

[It's time to go.] 】

She turned and walked away in the direction of the hall.

The cold wind rolled up.

The moment Alice moved, Minnie Mouse reached out with a slight urgency to grasp the air in front of her. Judging by her movements, she may have tried to grab the corner of Alice's skirt. And under that dark veil, the girl's lips opened slightly, and slightly anxious words blurted out.

"Please wait a minute...... the golden-red eyes brightened.

Of course, she caught nothing. Because Alice's form was always in shadow, it was impossible to determine her position except for the faint blood stains and voices that had disappeared.

It was quiet, and there was no sound in the stone chamber.

Perhaps, she is gone.

The golden-red woman gently pressed her hands to her chest and bowed deeply in the direction of Alice's departure.

"Thank you for saving me. Rosewood's eyes dimmed.

"Please be careful. ”

She bent her knees and prayed quietly.

It took a long time for a deliberate sound of low footsteps to come from afar.

………………………………

The girl felt the magic energy wrapped around her and thought.

[That woman's matter will be put aside for ...... time being]

[There are about two minutes left before the Shadow Asylum disappears.] 】

Alice clings to the antique ornaments on the ceiling and moves swiftly towards the central hall. Passing through the trajectory of her movements, a trace of wind swept away in circles.

Magic scrolls are not good at all. Although the requirements for use have been reduced to the point that any creature with magical power can easily use it, the operability and stability of magical energy have also been greatly reduced at the cost.

The most intuitive expression is that the effect has dropped significantly.

It's the same incineration technique, if it is unleashed by a high-ranking wizard, I am afraid that even the heroes of the legend will not be spared. However, if the caster is replaced with a half-hanger who uses a magic scroll, even a ragtag peasant soldier in the countryside may be able to survive due to his agility or physical strength.

And now, Alice's shadow shelter is facing this problem.

The will of the warrior affects the stability of the magical energy. For example, mercy, such as hatred, pride, greed, **, and even the most primitive killing intent can become the subject of the will to fight. As long as this will is strong enough and cohesive enough, then it can cause some incredible phenomena. For example, let the strength be greater, the reaction faster, and the body longer. Some powerful warriors will even form a substantial [qi] on the surface of their bodies when they are full of fighting spirit, which is enough to isolate the vast majority of magical energy.

It is for this reason that the warriors of the Nords are able to stand up to the wizards of the High Elves. But because of this, it is difficult for high-level warriors to find magic items that can be used normally. Because the effect of magic energy on oneself, whether good or bad, is within the scope of the will to fight.

Alice is not strong enough to make her [qi] manifest, but that doesn't mean that she doesn't have such strength in her. Just now, when she slew the orc wild wizard, she was inspired to kill. And this killing intent made the effect of the magic energy on her body unstable.

[It lasts about a hundred seconds.] 】

Alice glanced at her surroundings and frowned secretly.

That guy named Gu went too far. In this case, even if the shadow shelter is completely gone, the leader of the wizarding group may not be found. And if you can't carry out the decapitation tactics and take out the commander first, then the next situation will inevitably fall into the unfavorable situation of being outnumbered.

Case......

[So, let's speed it up a little bit.] 】

Suddenly, the breeze turned into a violent wind! A mysterious and cold wind swept swiftly along the upper end of the underground palace.

The wind passed through the hanging beams, bypassed the stone pillars, and moved rapidly through the intricate underground tunnels with a subtle, sharp cracking sound, and in the blink of an eye, it crossed the distance that would normally take three minutes to run to the side of the central hall.

In the stone chamber separated by a wall, Carter the Wild Wizard was still bored waiting for his fellow orcs.

[Thirty seconds to go......]

The wind dispersed in the moment it was about to enter the hall. The aftermath of the spread of the wind only had the effect of causing the torch in the hall to shake slightly. A few wizards who were conducting some strange tests looked up in confusion, but quickly turned their attention to where they should have been.

- There are a lot of detection enchantments here. Don't talk about people, not even flies don't want to come in silently.

[Twenty seconds to go......]

The blue light in the pupils of a high-ranking ghoul flickered a few times, and it raised its head slightly, its gaze constantly moving on the ceiling. It could almost see a vague shadow rapidly changing its bearings. And just as it was about to make an attack stance, an intermittent wave of magical energy temporarily calmed it.

The orc wizard's cane has worked.

[Ten seconds to go......]

Alice floated alongside a thick stalactite, looking down from a high vantage point. Her gaze moved quickly, sweeping over most of the wild wizards in an instant.

- If the leader needs to demonstrate his authority, then his appearance must be noticeably different from the rest of the miscellaneous soldiers.

[Eight seconds to go.] 】

There were more and more restless ghouls, and some wizards looked around in disbelief. The enchantment shows that there are no infiltrators around. But their instincts told them that something bad had happened.

[Five seconds.] 】

Clusters of white magic light bounced out, illuminating the dark corners of the surrounding area. The ghouls raised their weapons and roared quietly, but were unable to move because of the emissary's orders.

It's a mess.

However, the more chaotic the better.

Only in this way can the person who is the leader be revealed.

[Three seconds.] 】

An invisible aura spread everywhere. The wild wizards and ghouls touched by this power quickly fell silent. Judging by the nature of the magic, it was supposed to be a tranquil spell - a spell that ordinary wild wizards would not learn. I can't learn either.

The next moment, the hall resounded with the soft sound of a cane striking the ground.

'Tuk-tuk-'

A man with a golden scepter came out of a hidden stone chamber.

He wore a heavy gray-black hooded cloak with gold filigree engraved on the exterior. In the gloom beneath the hood, two blue-green dark flames danced.

[Found you.] 】

In the next moment, Alice moved.

She was like a violent wind, shooting out from the top of the stone wall like an arrow from a string, stabbing at the gray-black fellow!

[Two seconds.] 】

The wind struck, but two burly shadows wearing high-horned helmets suddenly appeared behind the stone pillars on both sides of the wizard.

- It's a high-ranking ghoul!

I saw them slam forward, blocking the gap in front of the wizard. The sharpened Gounod axe sword in the ghoul's hand was raised violently, and then, decisively, slashed down!

[One second.] 】

The wind, cut off.

And the inclusions hidden in the wind also quietly appeared at this time.

Is that...... A birch cane!?

The ghouls screamed sharply and quickly turned to look at their backs. At the same time, the two ghostly lights under the wizard's cloak also suddenly flourished. He jerked up his staff as if he wanted to do something.

【Zero!】

'Pss

The dark blue flames froze abruptly. Behind him, an open Dharmaless shield was turning into countless tiny fragments and scattering.

First the blade, then the fingers, wrists, arms. Alice's form manifested one by one in the murky void. And on her sword-wielding right hand, the direction of the blade pierced the wizard's back accurately.

A sword, through the heart.

“……………”

"Not true. ”
