Chapter 1685: The Verge

"It's really embarrassing!"

After resting for a while, waiting for the potion to take effect, Maca was finally able to move a little. So he laughed at himself as he propped himself up and leaned against a half-collapsed wall beside him.

At this moment, the gray fog is still frighteningly thick, giving the impression that the whole person is immersed in a huge pool filled with milk. If it weren't for the fact that she could still see the floor sitting under her and the brick wall behind her, Maca would probably wonder if she might have blown her eyes out.

And because of this thick mist, Maca's magic perception ability has also been reduced by half. This is clearly a rather unfavorable state of affairs for his current situation.

Because judging from the several encounters with Helbo during this time, the other party seems to be completely unaffected by the gray fog. Not only that, but perhaps the fog will bring some benefits to Helbo.

It is conceivable that if Helbo was getting closer and closer now, he would probably not be able to detect it until he was very close.

But then again, the most puzzling thing for Maca now is, why hasn't Helbo shown up yet?

"Could it be that the explosion at close range just now also caused some kind of damage to himself?"

As soon as this thought came to mind, Maca immediately shook her head, throwing it aside, it was impossible, even he could barely survive under the protection of the temporary magic barrier, how could Helpo, who had the body of a demon, be injured?

But in this case, what exactly was Helbo doing in the period after the explosion?

Just as Maca was secretly hesitating, suddenly, a fierce attraction that Maca felt so familiar appeared from a certain direction, pulling the thick gray fog of the surrounding explosion center like a whale swallowing.

Maka, who was in the middle of the flowing mist, had to expend a lot of mental power to activate the "Arrogance" rune and stabilize her soul.

Yes, this strange suction is exactly the same as the effect of the original Devouring Mirror, at most it is a faint inferior swallowing power.

"Helbo."

Maca is almost certain that the source of this attraction is Helpo herself. At the same time, he finally understood why Helmo didn't immediately chase after him.

It seems that Helbo wants to repair his broken body by using the large amount of mist released after detonating the living corpse.

However, even if Maca could deduce this, there was nothing he could do about it. In his current state, it was already quite difficult to resist this suction alone.

It's just that I don't know whether to say that Maca is "lucky" or "unlucky", Helbo swallows the mist quite quickly. After a while, he only felt that his vision was becoming clearer and clearer, and it was obvious that the part of the fog with the highest density was about to be exhausted by the other party.

Not only that, but according to the current situation, the fog that was previously shrouded even outside London will also shrink by a circle......

But correspondingly, Helbo's body is also rapidly recovering, and most of the weaknesses exposed by the previous hard resistance to meteorites are now mostly gone.

Under the influence of the other, Maca's next fate is obviously self-evident.

After a few moments, the suction that tore at Maca's soul finally disappeared. Apparently, Helbo must have swallowed enough mist.

As for whether he will have to take some time to "digest and absorb", it is not something that Maca can guess.

But no matter what, the moment the suction stopped, Maca immediately dispersed the arrogance rune, and then took out a broomstick and flipped it with all her strength.

At this point, it would be unwise to stay any longer, and if possible, it would be better to leave as soon as possible.

That's right, if possible

"Bang!"

Not long after flying out, Maca's eyes suddenly went dark, and immediately after him, he felt that he had hit something extremely hard.

You know, the buildings around here have been flattened by the previous explosion, so what else can he hit while flying in mid-air?

Perhaps because she had just consumed a lot of mental power to resist the suction, Maca's reflexes had become a lot sluggish. It wasn't until he fell to the ground with a broom that he realized that Helbo had come over after all.

"Bang!"

As she approached the ground, Maca finally unleashed a momentum in time to counteract the speed of the fall. Then, he landed on the ground with a "click".

After this fall, another wave of pain swept through the body, causing Demaka to gasp.

Still, he quickly rolled over and sat up.

By this time, Helbo had already fallen back from the sky to the ground, and stood not far in front of him, quietly watching him.

"Recovered?"

Maca sat cross-legged in the middle of the ruins, looked at the other party's right arm that had grown back again, and asked knowingly.

On the other side, Helbo also cooperated, and then said casually:

"Well, but you're hurt."

There was no lack of ridicule in the other party's words, but they were incredibly bland, and there was no ridicule as Maca expected. But as you can imagine, Helmo is not a man like Malfoy after all, and he doesn't care about ...... In other words, never satisfied with the triumph of words.

"yes!" Maca frowned and said slowly, "This world is like this, no one knows what will become of it in the next second!" But let me say it first, I'm not going to sit back and die. ”

Even though she even looked embarrassed when she sat down, Maca's expression remained the same, mixed with a slight indifference in her calmness, as if she had already expected that she might usher in such a day.

"Oh, of course...... Of course! Helmo nodded, "I didn't expect you to compromise with me, just like you didn't think I'd give up in the first place." ”

As he said this, he suddenly raised his hand, and a ball of flames as black as his body suddenly appeared in his palm, and it seemed to shoot towards Maca at any moment.

Maca didn't move, he just sat on the ground, tilting his head weakly and squinting at Helbo's every move. Looking at his uncontrollable appearance, he probably knew that he didn't have the ability to attack at all in his own state, so he planned to try a defensive counterattack strategy.

For a moment, it seemed that even the surrounding air had frozen, and the whole scene was about to erupt.
