098 The Mystery of Magic
Magic is mystery.
Battles between magicians are often not a battlefield of bullets, but more of a conceptual confrontation.
In fact, between strength and weakness, there is such an immutable law, or a principle that has been prescribed.
Mystic will lose its effectiveness before the higher mysteries, so magic will completely lose its effect before the more advanced mysteries, and this is the reason why magicians are absolutely unable to fight the Heroic Spirits.
The existence of the Servant itself is a high-level mystery, and magic is completely suppressed in the face of such mystery, so most magic tricks cannot cause damage to the Servant.
In the same way, magic cannot play its role when facing the strongest dragons of the fantasy species, and it is through the power given by the demon god that Kadir has obtained a body equivalent to that of a dragon.
It can be said that he is already a high-level mystery in his own right.
Any magic trick, if you attack him directly, will not have an effect no matter what, although it is true that because of this, his body has also been strengthened, but what blocked the magic trap explosion just now was not a strong body, but a high-level mystery.
And the dragon's keen sense of smell for the flow of magic seems to have been transferred to him.
Kadir grabbed the entity he was holding, the corners of his mouth were already showing a tiny, at this distance, unless Ryry used a powerful magic to knock it back, it was possible to escape, but magic that could be strong enough to have an effect on dragons, that was probably only the existence of the same level as magic.
"I see, thank you for explaining, otherwise I would have almost thought you were just a physical strong existence."
Larry's voice came from behind, and it made Kadir dumbfounded, and at the same time, his expression became dull due to the change in the touch of his fingertips.
It wasn't Larry's hands, feet, or neck, but a strip of stone.
Occult only removed the cold touch from the stone, giving Kadir the feeling of grasping the real thing, but in reality, it wasn't Larry himself.
Although magic will lose its effectiveness before the more advanced mysteries, the MONOCULUS is not in this ranks, and the ability to have the MONOCULUS by nature like Larry is more often in the category of superpowers than in the realm of magic.
Naturally, no matter how advanced and mysterious the opponent is, it will not be able to eliminate the influence of the MONOCULUS on it, and perhaps the characteristics of the dragon will make the MONOCULUS less effective, that is, Kadir can still feel the fact that Larry uses magic.
But as long as Larry turns to using the magic stored in his body, he will never be noticed by Kadir.
As we all know, there are two sources of magic power, one is the magic power generated from the great source of the world, the magic power that exists on the entire earth, this part of the magic power can be used by magicians, and at the same time, magicians can also use the magic power generated by the small source of self that transforms their own life force into the body.
"You.... What an annoying guy! Kadir crushed the stone pillar in his hand, and then began to destroy the surrounding stone walls in a frenzy, after all, he had the body of a dragon, and it was not difficult to tear down a castle with his bare hands.
However, his series of actions were actually expected by Larry, and after saying that, Larry left the place directly.
It's not an escape, it's a strategic shift, after all, after knowing that magic won't work on Kadir, the theory that I had thought about before no longer works.
Only by using his own modern scientific magic system can he defeat this opponent, but since he thought that he couldn't make enough weapons, he had to move the place first and then find the opponent.
Of course, Larry didn't just run away, he would invoke the magic of the outside world from time to time while leaving, in turn to attract Kadir's attention, in short, it was like walking a dog with food.
Kadir is probably also due to the relationship of being given a dragon body, which has caused his own human consciousness to gradually weaken, a person who can patiently plan and wait for such a long time should not be so irritable, but now as long as he senses the traces of the flow of magic, he will pounce fiercely, like a real beast.
The current Kadir gives Ryry the feeling that he has lost his mind, and since he blew up his abilities, his consciousness has probably been a little confused.
It's clear that he's made the same mistakes that many villains have made, and there's too much nonsense, but of course, it's a good thing for Larry, as long as he's clear about what's going on with Kadir's body, then there's still a way to deal with him.
However, Larry's actions also lead to even greater commotion in the castle.
The Guard's vision of Larry can be erased by obscuring the Eye, but Kadir's monster-like behavior is not something he can hide.
The timid guard was so frightened when he saw the new monster that he ran away.
And the dutiful guards will quickly avoid the monster's attack, after all, this monster is terrifying, but it has no aggression against them, they exert a certain block on the monster on the one hand, and on the other hand, they send a wave of people to the upper level of the castle to check, after all, the direction in which the monster emerged, but where the queen is.
In this way, Larry slipped Kadir to the bottom of the castle with great ease.
——————
At the bottom of the castle, the knights were gathering, and although the leader of the Knights of Fiona realized that the biggest enemy was in the air, the height of the black dragon was too high, and even the largest ballista in the city could not shoot at that height of the dragon.
Fortunately, since the first dive, the black dragon has not moved, it seems to be observing, hovering in the air, and let out a howl from time to time.
Taking advantage of this gap, Finn also gathered all the knights in the capital and gathered under the castle, unlike those loose guards, although the knights may have fear in their eyes, none of them chose to retreat.
Because of this, the arrival of the Knights of Fiona also temporarily suppressed the panic in the castle, and it took a lot of effort for Finn, as the leader, to gather the scattered guards together and make them brave.
Next, Finn was about to go to the castle to confirm the queen's safety, but he didn't want to, and before he could step on the castle steps, a monster had already sprang out of it.
It broke through the stone walls of the castle and burst out of it, crushing down on all fours.
Although the monster has the appearance of a human, with its deformed and protruding muscle mass, and its already somewhat distorted face, coupled with strange golden eyes, it is really hard to imagine that this guy is a human.
The guard next to him also said that although this guy has changed, they still recognize it.
Kadir, the Queen's Guard, has now become a monster.
The guards who had just gathered panicked again because of the appearance of this monster, but fortunately, Finn suppressed the riot in time to suppress the possibility of escaping.
And the monster didn't know why, and at the moment of rushing out of the castle, it seemed to be stunned, and was staying in place and watching the guards and knights gathered around it without moving.
However, even the head of the regiment did not expect that before the monster rushed out of the castle, an outsider had already left the interior of the castle under their noses.
