Chapter 110: The End of the Conference (I)
The defeated Lin Ya was ready to leave directly, he didn't want to challenge anyone, the ranking was worthless to him, and this time he came here just because of the invitation letter issued by the council, and now that Tang Yin has taken his place and stood in the forty ring, he has no reason to stay.
"I'm sorry Senior Lin Ya, you can't leave yet. ”
"You are?"
Passing through the side door, as soon as he walked into the passage leaving the venue, Lin Ya was stopped by a man wearing a white monkey mask.
"I am the shadow of the Magical Society. The man lifted the sleeve of his right hand and showed off the eagle tattoo on his wrist, "This sign is proof of identity." ”
"Shadow?" Lin Ya narrowed his eyes, "I haven't heard of this organization, and I've never seen this tattoo." ”
"I don't think about that. Look at this," the man took a half-step back, coincidentally blocking the way, holding out a token, "This is the token of the Magic Guild, and the Council will announce an important matter after the conference, until then, all S-class mages are not allowed to leave the venue." ”
"As a freelance magician, no one can decide whether I go or stay. Lin Ya looked at the gray-robed guy in front of him, and there was no trace of fraud on the token, "Even the Magic Association does not have such power. ”
"We are also acting on orders, and I hope that our predecessors will not be difficult for us. ”
"I ...... Guys?"
Out of the shadows behind Lin Ya came a person in the same outfit, but the mask on his face turned into a white wolf.
"Hmph, it looks like you're pretty well prepared. ”
"Ink Eagle acts, foolproof. ”
"When did the Council start taking action on the Free Mage, and has the struggle for power been so fierce?"
"Senior Lin Ya, you misunderstood. The White Monkey Mask shook his head, "This operation is not aimed at freelance mages, but all S-class mages. ”
"I don't care what you want to do, just don't have anything to do with me, and take your leave. ”
Lin Ya stepped out, and an aqua blue light appeared under his feet.
The two stood silent, silently watching him perform the spell.
With a flash of light, Lin Ya's figure disappeared and reappeared in an instant, and his position did not change at all.
"......" Lin Ya's face was calm, but his heart jumped, the teleportation technique was obviously completed, and there was no hindrance halfway, why didn't he move successfully?
"Senior, you do this? It's going to make it hard for us. "The two took out their wands? It seems to be standard, and the two wands are indistinguishable from their appearance.
"It seems that the council's determination to keep people is stronger than I expected?" Lin Ya's hands? A ghostly light gradually emerged, "But freedom is still stronger for me than the council's commands." Can you keep me? It's up to you. ”
"Ahh "Liu Ye stretched a long lazy waist on the hanging stands and stood on the floating stones all day? It's a bit sleepy. Is the last day coming to an end in the blink of an eye? But almost no one can successfully defeat the S-level magicians in the ring, except for Matsushita Kao, who is still ranked 100th, is a newcomer, and the other rings where the rankings have been changed are all old people for old people, and there is nothing worth paying attention to.
None of the top thirty-nine powerhouses has dared to touch porcelain so far? The fights that took place in the rest of the ring have proven to all the challengers that the gap between man and man is greater than that of man and dog? The techniques that A-class magicians are proud of are shattered at the slightest touch in front of S-class, and many people don't even deserve to have the opportunity to make a move, and they are kicked out of the ring in a daze as soon as they are ready for battle.
"Uh-huh, it's boring. Shi Lan sat on the ground with her face crossed, blowing the hair hanging down from her forehead repeatedly, "There are not many impressive battles. ”
"There's no way? In the final analysis, the rating conference is just a social occasion, and the competitive assessment is only its subsidiary function. "Ouyang Gu's gaze is on the stands in the air? " With so many big names coming out of the list, it seems that the council has something important to announce? Did you reveal the news to the family alliance in advance......"
"What will be the important thing?" asked Shilan, tilting her head.
"I don't know. Liu Ye shook his head.
"It's stupid. ”
"I don't know, we don't know. "Liu Ye knocked on Shi Lan's Heavenly Spirit Cover? " We have been together during the day for more than ten days? Director Yan is nowhere to be found? There was no time for research, no special channels for information, and no chance to know what the council was thinking. ”
"If you don't know, you don't know, don't you just say you're stupid, why hit me. Shi Lan covered her head and stepped on Liu Ye fiercely.
Just when the two were arguing, Ouyang Gu silently pushed his sunglasses, reflecting a strange light.
In the passage out of the venue, two people wearing white masks fell to the ground, Lin Ya touched the walls on both sides, the dense cracks like spider webs on the wall were gradually disappearing, unlike the self-healing magic of the ring, the cracks on this wall did not need to recover the rubble, its material was more like growing out of thin air.
In Lin Ya's experience, he had never seen this anywhere else.
"There's no trace of forbidden magic. His hand against the wall glowed a faint red, "There are no interference techniques set up,"
It's strange that after fighting here for so long, no one has heard such a big movement.
And...... The cause of the malfunction of the space magic just now has not been found.
"What do the people from the Magic Association want to do?" Lin Ya walked to the man in front of him and squatted down, reaching out to take off his white monkey mask, "Do the rats who hide their heads and tails dare to call themselves eagles soaring in the sky...... What? This ...... This...... This...... How is this possible!"
When he saw the face behind the white monkey, Lin Ya's hand holding the mask trembled violently, his teeth trembled uncontrollably, his eyebrows unconsciously twisted together, and angry flames danced in his deep eyes.
"Don ...... Ming Zi ......" Lin Ya slowly closed his eyes, his chest rising and falling violently, "This ...... What the hell is this ......?"
He wouldn't be wrong, he would never be wrong with this face. Although this person's eyebrows looked very immature, and although his voice had changed, he was Tang Mingzi! Tang Mingzi who had been confirmed dead fifteen years ago!
"No, calm down. Lin Ya said to himself, "Calm down Lin Ya, think about it, there will definitely be a reasonable explanation for this matter." ”
Yes, he is not Tang Mingzi, absolutely not.
If it was really him, he couldn't have won so easily.
Maybe it's just two people who look alike...... Yes, it must be so. After all, this man looks much younger...... Could it be that Ming Zi's descendants and relatives were deliberately arranged by the Magic Association to deal with him without knowing it......
After the flames of anger burned out, Lin Yazhi felt a chill down his spine, and the cold that penetrated deep into the bone marrow rushed from the soles of his feet to his head, and he forcibly resisted the nausea in his heart and walked to another person wearing a white wolf-head mask, taking a deep breath while stretching out his trembling hand to the mask.
The fingertips were attached to the edge of the mask, and the mask made of ceramic material had a cold touch, and you could see the face under the mask with a slight flick, but Lin Ya hesitated at this time. He suddenly felt very frightened, afraid that the face under this mask was also his familiar face, afraid of seeing the nightmare that had been haunting him for so many years.
"Huh...... What's wrong with me? I've lived to a dog, and the older I get, the less timid I get?"
Lin Ya suddenly laughed self-deprecatingly, he didn't expect that he had reached the age of timidity in doing things.
The hesitation in his eyes was swept away in an instant, and Lin Ya held his breath and slowly unveiled the white wolf-headed mask.
"Whew-"
Seeing an unfamiliar face under the mask, he couldn't help but let out a long sigh of relief.
If it's really an acquaintance, he really doesn't know what to do.
Right now...... What to do?
Lin Ya stared at the door not far away, thought for a while, and then turned his head to look at the darkness behind him.
It's not far from the main venue, but the corridors are so deep that there is no end in sight.
"Should you just leave and leave it alone, or stay and find out what the Magic Association wants to do......" Lin Ya fell into deep thought, compared to this trip to the troubled waters, leaving directly freely and freely was more in line with his style of acting over the years, but the fact that someone who looked exactly the same as Tang Mingzi appeared and came to intercept him really made him care.
Leaving means safety, staying means danger.
Alone against the Magic Association, even if it is him, it is the end of nine deaths.
Do you really want to do this?
"......Shh Sure enough, the older you get, the more timid you become, and the older you get, the more afraid you are of death. ”
In the past, I would never hesitate to do this kind of thing.
So what, even if it's a god, I'm not going to back down.
Thinking about it, Lin Ya turned around and walked towards the place he came from.
"You're really, haven't changed at all. There was a ripple in the darkness ahead, and out of the ripples came a graceful long-haired woman. Suddenly, a beam of light illuminated each other, it was the glow of the jade flute in the woman's hand.
The voice...... This flute...... These hands...... No, it can't be!
All of Lin Ya's psychological defenses collapsed at this moment, reason was so unable to stand the test, he was easily knocked down by a face, a word, a person, and the feelings of warmth, sadness, regret, happiness, and joy burst out of the closed door of his heart, flowing in his mind like a surging river.
He struggled to maintain a semblance of calm, trying to control his expression and tone, but tears and snot flowed unfettered, uninhibited and uninhibited across the plains.
"Green ...... Green Frost ...... Really, really...... Is it really you?"
"It's me. The woman smiled lightly, "Lin Ya, long time no see." ”
“...... Who are you. ”
"Huh?"
"Who are you, I asked. Lin Ya shook it lightly, and the wand in his right hand appeared, "First Mingzi, then Qingshuang...... How long do you have to pretend? ”
"What are you talking about?" Facing the imposing Lin Ya, the woman smiled and stepped back, "I'm Qingshuang, Shen, Qing, Shuang." ”
"Shut up, you don't deserve to pronounce that name. Lin Ya raised his wand, "However, you don't have a chance to read it again." ”
"Ding-" An arrow flew from behind him, hitting the wand in Lin Ya's hand with precision, and nailed it diagonally into the wall beside him.
"This arrow?"
"I recognize it. "There was a flash of brilliant light, and it was a longbow of great magnificence, illuminating the face of its master.
The angular face, a pair of bright eyes like stars, and a little stubble on both sides of the chin, the years have not left too many traces on this face, only adding a bit of vicissitudes to it.
"Lin Ya, is this how you treat your old friends who haven't seen you for many years?
The man with the ornate longbow raised his head and smiled.
"Mingzi, is it really you?" Lin Ya's eyes showed a blankness, he was truly shaken, "You are not dead, what happened fifteen years ago, where have you been in the past fifteen years, and what are you here for?"
"It's a long story, you go with us to a place first, it's not safe here. You should be aware of it, since the moment you walk out of the door, you've come to another separate space, even if you walk through the door over there, it's useless. Tang Mingzi pointed to the exit behind him that seemed to be close at hand, "And maybe you will see something terrible." ”
"It's full of people like them, and it's too dangerous to walk alone. Shen Qingshuang kicked away the corpse in front of him and walked to Tang Mingzi's side, "It's better to act collectively." ”
"What the hell is this place. Lin Ya looked at the two of them with half-squinted eyes, it felt as unreal as a dream, Tang Mingzi's statement was reasonable, which could explain why he had been fighting here for so long but no one appeared in the venue, but from beginning to end, he didn't notice any traces of magic related to illusion and space.
If there was a real negligence, it should have happened at the time of the battle, and not at any other time.
Lin Ya is still confident in his perception ability.
"Get out of here first, you can't finish talking about this place in a few words. ”
"Mingzi, I'll just call you Mingzi. Lin Ya recalled his wand, "If you don't explain it, I can't trust you." ”
"When the old people reunite, do you have to make trouble to this point?" Tang Mingzi turned sideways and looked at him with slanted eyes, "I thought there was still the trust between us in the past. ”
"Trust certainly exists, but it is based on the premise that your identity is real. ”
"Is that so...... Then there is no way, since you want to know so much, I'll tell you. ”
Tang Mingzi smiled slightly, his right hand grabbed Lin Ya's forehead at an incredible speed, and six black runes spread out in an instant, and a red six-pointed star was reflected in Lin Ya's eyes in the blink of an eye.
"This is, hell. ”
