Chapter 012: The Wicked
Eli cautiously lit a fireball to illuminate the surroundings.
He wasn't worried about Duoduo, after all, no one could see her except himself. It is estimated that when Eli sees Duoduo again, Duoduo will be able to share with him a lot of information about the Brown Castle Bloodline that she overheard.
As for Jaceline and Wendell, where will they be teleported?Eli pulls out the communication mirror and tries to contact them, but Eli discovers that the message can't be reached!
Let's hope they get out safely, Eli thought. But then again, Jacelyn is strong, Wendell is good at stealth, and among the three who have been separated, the most dangerous situation at the moment should be himself, right? Eli laughed at himself.
It was a reckless operation that would have been a casual 12-year-old wizard with enough curiosity and curiosity to take action. But Eli is a 30-year-old with a mind, and Jaceline has been chased several times, and her psychological maturity is far greater than that of her peers. It stands to reason that they should not have acted so recklessly. Why are they so desperate to come to the ruined castle after just a few words of encouragement from Senior Wendell? Eli felt as if he had overlooked something.
But now is not the time to review the gains and losses of this operation, he must find a way to escape from here first.
He looked around with great vigilance, walking cautiously. However, as soon as he took another step, a scarlet light enveloped him, and in the blinding light, his eyes were briefly blinded.
After he got used to it, he saw an unusually large and dazzling magic array.
Strangely, before he took that step, it was dark all around him. The light of the magic array here didn't even scatter out?
Eli subconsciously took a step back, but it was as if he had touched the wall of an entity, and he couldn't retreat at all!
Eli tried to unleash the elemental magic again, attacking the invisible wall. But the invisible wall was like a black hole, engulfing all of Eli's magical attacks.
Could it be that I have entered a confinement circle, and I can only enter but not get out? Oops! This is a big trouble...... Fear made Eli swallow with some difficulty, and cold sweat broke out frequently in his palms and forehead.
At this time, he saw a faint figure in the eye of the magic array. Is this magic array meant to imprison a person?
Eli didn't dare to step forward. Such a dazzling huge magic array is just to imprison a person, and you can imagine how dangerous this person must be.
He wanted to circle around the edge of the invisible wall to see if he could spot anything, but he was afraid that this would disturb the cleanliness of the man in front of him. So he sat on the floor, trying to calm himself down and think about what to do next.
The man at the eye of the array made a strong voice: "You can sit closer, I can't do without this eye." ”
But the sorcery you unleash can leave...... Eli thought to himself. But he did it anyway. Moved several steps forward.
"It's a child. How did you get here?" the man asked.
Eli says he heard that there is a tomb of the magic book in the ruined castle, so he sneaks in. Then, somehow, he was recognized as a member of the Bloodline, and was taken to a room by a Bloodline, and before they knew what they were going to discuss in the room, they realized that they were not Blood, and a conflict broke out. In the process of escaping, he encountered the Terran wizard again, and was teleported here by the magic teleportation array jointly released by them.
Eli felt that this man should have been locked up here for a long time, and he probably didn't know about the Tomb of the Magic Book. If he is interested in the Tomb of the Magic Book and wants to get more information from Eli, at least Eli's life will not be in danger for the time being.
"You're not telling the truth. ”
"......" Eli really didn't tell the truth and the situation, he omitted to say it, but he didn't say it nonsense. I didn't tell the whole truth, but what I said was not false. Eli felt that he was cheating him.
"I'm not lying. Eli replied.
The man ignored Eli and muttered, "The dragon of laziness, the tomb of the magic book?" and pondered for a moment.
Sure enough, any wizard with a little ambition will be interested in the Tomb of the Magic Book. Eli's hanging heart was a little calmer.
At this moment, suddenly, a terrifying magic force attached to the man's palm, and then he pushed it out, and the air was stirred into transparent ripples, and the magic power released formed a violent explosion of shock waves and smashed into the invisible wall that imprisoned the magic circle, and the magic array shook violently, and the invisible wall was also made a circle of ripples.
But after a while, it was as if nothing had happened. The man sighed: "Unfortunately, I still can't get out." ”
Just the magic power was released, and the magic array shook violently?When Eli first attacked with magic, the invisible wall didn't change at all. The difference in strength is too great.
Eli couldn't help but think of what Wendell had said before that at the World Congress three years ago, the Lazy Dragon only unleashed its magical coercion, and did not perform any witchcraft, which shocked everyone and made them dizzy.
Eli struggled to regain his composure. "Why didn't the seniors use witchcraft?" Eli felt that if this person used witchcraft, he might not be able to break the imprisoned magic circle.
"I'm locked in this array, unable to use sorcery, at most, to cast my magic. ”
"Dare to ask...... Who are the seniors locked in this confinement array?"
"Those old things from the Ministry of Magic. The man snorted.
It's actually a high-ranking member of the Ministry of Magic...... Could it be that this person in front of him was once a heinous demon, and the bigwigs of the Ministry of Magic worked together to detain him here?
Eli was nervous again. Still, he mustered up the courage to ask, "Why?"
"The Ministry of Magic, they don't arrest bad guys, they certainly don't imprison good guys, they only detain, those who stand and don't play with them. ”
This...... Eli didn't expect him to answer like that. Eli didn't know what to say for a moment, so he sat quietly and said no more.
"Child, let me ask you, if a person kills only those who should be killed, is he a wicked person?"
"Dare to ask him whether he was passive or active in the killing, whether he fought back in self-defense, or took the initiative to 'do the right thing for heaven'?"
"There is passivity, there is initiative. ”
"That's the wicked. ”
"Oh?"
"There are passive, there are active, so there are a lot of times...... When that person starts killing people 'on his own initiative', he can't tell who should be killed and who shouldn't. Who hasn't made a mistake, but there aren't many who are innocent......
Once that person named himself 'justice' and began to take the initiative to 'eliminate harm for the people', in fact, he just fell in love with the pleasure of killing......
'Killing' will slowly form a habit, and at this time, his so-called 'justice' is often 'there is no excuse for the crime he wants'. Just now he was still trembling, Eli didn't know why he dared to say these words at this time.
It doesn't seem like it came out of the mouth of a child. ”
"If you wish I was just a kid, I could just sit here and listen to your story, and when it's exciting, I'll clap my hands and applaud. ”
"Unexpectedly, at my age, I learned right and wrong from a child again. So, I'll tell you another story, little friend......"
