Chapter 92: Hunting Mission, Random Entry
The puppeteer, in my understanding, is different from the wooden man, the puppet and the puppet, and it is a combination of the three. It is made of wood, like a wooden man, and is manipulated like a puppet, and has sharp joints and a clear face, close to a puppet. Although it is richer than a simple wooden figure and more monotonous than a puppet with heavy traps, it has the appearance of a real person, like a perfect doll.
There are many stories about puppeteers. In my impression, there are few warm stories and many scary stories. "Love a puppeteer, kiss it and inject its own aura into it, it will come to life and accompany you for a lifetime". It sounds romantic, but there are different versions of the same rumor. There is a version that if the master turns his back on the puppeteer, it will become resentful and curse its master. The outcome varies, some go missing, some die β it's not scary to see the remains, but it's a frightening tale if the puppet's owner is missing and someone hears their cries for help or sees them looming in the fog.
We can now be sure that it was the Dark Mage who used the Soulbound Order to free the Silent Puppeteer, most likely for Xiao Hui's Dalai Crystal.
"There was a message from Yu Jingjing on the contact plane, she said that there was a dark mage in this mission, and we should leave the Strange Stone Forest as soon as possible. β
Josh shuddered and replied to Kojiro: "It's too late. β
I still can't think of who the disappeared man in black is, but I understand that in the cold forest, we have nowhere to escape, but to destroy the surrounding golems and the star-level six-dark attribute magical creatures in front of us.
There were four people present, and the actual combat power was three people. If it is less than an hour, it will not be available. There is no doubt that I will be able to destroy this evil creature that harbors a lot of malice towards us, but then the agreement between me and Xiao Hui will be broken.
"The strength of the opponent is obvious to all, and there is no chance of winning in a hard fight, so we can only outwit. Kojiro said calmly.
"Or, peace talks?"
Alex shoved Josh so hard that he almost pushed Josh to the ground: "The prey is standing in front of you unarmed, do you think it will easily let us live?"
"Together...... Be friends......" The shrill voice came from the bad puppet in the arms of the silent puppeteer.
At the same time, the puppets of magical creatures leaning against trees act.
Saying that the things in the forest are puppets is very fitting for their current image. According to the Men in Black and Kojiro, they were made into dolls alive, living dolls. Either way, they are dead creatures, but there are a handful of people whose brains have memories of their lives.
Park Ji-woo said that the Silent Puppeteer usually does not kill its opponents, but being a puppet by it is ten thousand times more painful than death. While the Blue Institute of Magical Science and Technology has discovered a way for the Silent Puppeteers to make living dolls, they claim that the process is horrific. Therefore, in the face of the murderous silent puppeteers, the magicians will destroy them all on the spot, in case they will be immobilized by it, and become a bad taste craft that they are not like people and ghosts. β
After listening to Kojiro, I looked at the wireless puppets who were walking slowly.
"We can't protect ourselves, do you have time to pity them?" Alex was displeased.
I don't have anything to say, because I don't know how to express what I think those puppets are really ugly in a way that is as unscrupulous as possible.
"Come ......" is supposed to be the silent puppeteer speaking from a broken puppet.
"Not coming. I shook my head.
"Come on. The Silent Puppeteer's expression was sad.
"Not coming. I shook my head repeatedly.
"Why?"
Putting aside the question of why I was able to have a normal conversation with the Silent Puppeteer for a moment, I told it the answer: "You're a bad magical creature, I'm a good magician, and the two sides are not friends with each other." β
I meant "Big brother, please don't kill me", and the Silent Puppeteer seemed to understand it in a different way.
"A magician who can't be a friend, I don't want it. "It succinctly gave me a death chance.
Before the phrase "I have something to say" came out of my mouth, the silent puppeteer, who appeared to be a woman, came with the wind and knocked all four of us away.
When I landed and yelled "it hurts", I was worried that my classmates would blame me.
There was lightning and thunder in the distance, and it was estimated that Alex had started a war. After all, he is a second-level magician, and he won't braided his hair in three or two seconds. Still, I have the possibility.
"No, friend. Hey hey ......"
The wind blows the leaves, the shadows of the trees sway, and the strange stone forest turns into someone's lonely graveyard under the sharp sneer of the silent puppeteer.
"I'm sorry, I was wrong. I'm friends with you. "When I feel that something is wrong, I blurt out when I am anxious.
The smiling silent puppeteer approached step by step, and repeatedly chanted: "I, no need, you ......"
I sigh to myself that I am above board, because I am greedy for life and afraid of death, and now I am going to be planted in the hands of a magical creature. Therefore, trouble comes from the mouth, and when you learn about it, you have to think twice.
"People don't struggle in vain. I smiled treacherously and prepared to ignite my soul power to advance.
"Squat!"
As soon as I leaned forward, Yu Jingjing's Hedong lion roar startled me, causing me to fall and eat.
I felt a gust of wind blowing over my head and my hair fell to one side, and I couldn't help but sneeze in this cold environment.
Drying my nose and standing up, I saw the Silent Puppeteer fall to the ground, and its puppet was nowhere to be seen.
"Yi Jiahe, catch it!" Yu Jingjing threw me something.
When I looked closely, I almost threw this horrible piece of.
"You took its toy?"
"What a toy, that's its limiter. β
"Limiter?"
Yu Jingjing made a battle posture and said, "Ah." Only by taking away the Silent Puppeteer's limiter will it go berserk. β
I felt 10,000 alpacas galloping past in my heart, and asked Yu Jingjing uncertainly: "You mean, you took its things to make it crazy?"
"Are you an idiot, memory loss doesn't mean that your IQ will drop. The Silent Puppeteer's weakness is light magic, but until its restrictions are lifted, any magic attacks will have their effect halved to it. Due to its ability to enhance itself by absorbing the magic of the dead, it is difficult to defeat it without a single hit, which is why the Silent Puppeteer is listed as a Star Six. β
I hurriedly ran to Yu Jingjing's side to face the silent puppeteer who was slowly standing up with her, and asked, "Are you sure you can win it?"
"Defeat it? destroy all the puppets that follow it, and then destroy it when the restrictions are lifted, that's it. β
I looked up and thought for a few seconds and asked, "What are the number of puppets trailing it?"
"I've been on patrol for a week, and there are more than 20 of them. β
I looked at the tattered doll in my hand and asked, "How much time?"
"Two me, as long as the silent puppeteer is equinox, dozens of minutes. β
"Too long, huh?"
Yu Jingjing glared at me and said, "Every puppet controlled by the Silent Puppet is one heart and soul with it, once it senses that we are destroying its puppet, it will be unable to deal with the two of me for a while, and it will inevitably turn people away and destroy us one by one by accident." Do you think it's that easy to destroy a magical creature of star six?"
The silent puppeteer in a white dress stared blankly at us, and then it stretched its limbs so that I couldn't help but think of a human figure. A black foreign object erupts from the joints - unlike the pure gas emitted by the Night Ghost, what the Silent Puppeteer spews out this time looks like a liquid - foul foam?
Let's count it as a bubble. I saw this stuff cover the Silent Puppeteer's body, turning it into a disgusting miremon. Then, as if to come to life, the bubble automatically slides down from the Silent Puppeteer, revealing the crusade behind it.
The silent puppeteer, with her blond hair curled up, her black dance suit, and her high heels opens its blue eyes. Others can see the difference at a glance. If it weren't moving, one would mistake it for the perfect work of a brilliant humanoid.
"Is this, Silent Puppeteer?" I was amazed.
"Yes...... Stupid, what an admiring expression. This guy is a magical creature and an extremely dangerous enemy. A living doll is a person who has been killed alive. It has more than 20 followers, which shows how ruthless it is. Don't be fooled by its appearance and forget that it's actually a demon. β
Yu Jingjing's words only aroused my desire to capture the silent puppeteer.
"What, you want to catch it?"
"I'll go, you can read minds?"
Yu Jingjing snorted and said, "That's right." The dark mage is looking for Xiao Hui in the strange stone forest, and the more minute we stay here, the more danger Xiao Hui will be. β
"So?"
Yu Jingjing didn't care about my gaze, reached behind her waist, took out a white card from her leggings and handed it to me.
"Is this a soul binding order?" No wonder Yu Jingjing wanted to persuade me, it turned out that she wanted to catch the Silent Puppeteer by herself. It's hateful, only the governor is allowed to set fires, and the people are not allowed to light lamps.
"One of the ways to isolate the Silent Puppeteer from its followers is to use a soulbound order or soulbound spell to cut their connection. Compared to the Soul Binding Spell, the Soul Binding Order is actually more binding. β
"Yes, yes," I asked Yu Jingjing as I stared at the Silent Puppeteer, "what do you want me to do next?"
"This is a magical creature unleashed by a dark mage. How long is it?"
"Probably, four or five minutes. β
Yu Jingjing was silent for a moment and gave an order: "I'll fight, you wait for the rabbit." β
"What to do?"
Yu Jingjing sighed, unexpectedly lifted her combat posture and put her index finger on the door of my head, saying, "You are really stupid." β
"Sister, I've got amnesia, okay. β
"Okay," Yu Jingjing said, looking at the magical creature that was still dancing and still moving, "I will weaken the power of the Silent Puppeteer first." You'll want to watch carefully and dodge the Silent Puppeteer's attacks if you spot a precursor to its special moves. The Silent Puppeteer will stop after performing its special move, so it's your unique chance to attach the Soulbound Order to the broken puppet in your hand. As a result, the Silent Puppeteer will be sealed in a magic device, and it will not be able to control its followers to attack our classmates. β
Ah, talking to Yu Jingjing almost made Kojiro forget them. It seems that they haven't heard thunder in a while, so they can't have an accident, right?
"Action. β
As soon as I came back to my senses, I saw Yu Jingjing rushing out like an arrow. With Yu Jingjing's charge, I had a flash of inspiration and shouted in my heart: "Jingjing, what kind of attack is the special move of the Silent Puppeteer?"
It's my style to watch the fire from across the river, but it's not my style to be indifferent to seeing my classmates on the battlefield. Anyway, I don't need to meddle. Yu Jingjing is a fifth-level magician, and it stands to reason that a magical creature that beats a sixth-level star will be at a disadvantage, but I don't think Yu Jingjing is struggling.
A slash, a stab, a jump, a stick, a dodge. Their fights were like a glamorous brawl show, and I was the only one watching. If you want to ask me what I need at this time, of course, it is a blanket and a pot of popcorn. It's a pleasure to be able to see the unique solo drama in the wizarding world without a ticket.
A wind blade flew in, and I immediately hid behind a tree. Sensing that something was wrong, I quickly moved to a hidden place.
The branches and leaves of a tree are gone, and the trunk of a tree is cut off...... The arena was full of fallen leaves and branches, and even if the person concerned didn't care, I couldn't bear it.
What makes me even more uncomfortable is that whenever I see the Silent Puppet change pose, I fear that it will unexpectedly perform its special move. If a flesh-and-blood dancer collides with a wind blade and Yu Jingjing's attack in a whirlwind, what is its special move?
"You two, you can't pause and tell me ......"
Two wind blades flew in, and I ducked to the ground with my head in my hands to escape.
"Hehe, I don't dare to interject anymore. β
Five minutes passed, and the trend of winning and losing between the two sides was obvious: Yu Jingjing began to gain the upper hand.
If, as Yu Jingjing said, the Silent Puppeteer draws its magic from its dollsβit seems that it doesn't matter the distance now, after all, I don't see the puppets anywhere I lookβin this case, Yu Jingjing won't last long.
As a manly husband, I can't escape the blame for watching a little woman go to the soup for me. However, their battles were really exciting, and I wanted to see them to the end.
The Silent Puppeteer ceases to act. Very well, this must be a precursor to the activation of the special move.
Yu Jingjing stopped moving, gasping for air. Be careful, Jingjing!
Twenty seconds later, the Silent Puppeteer moved again, and Yu Jingjing responded to the enemy.
The fight continued, and I had some visual fatigue.
"False alarm, a ......"
Before the words fell, I heard Yu Jingjing's shouting: "Yi Jiahe, the nirvana has been launched." Grab the core of the Silent Puppeteer and escape from where you are!"
"When? where to fleeβ"
An imperceptible thread appeared in my field of vision. Instinctive warning, I turned around with a flirtatious flame.
When it was too late, my left hand was tied with a thin thread, and if it weren't for the flames to resist, my left hand would have turned into a miserable tree behind me - a forest behind me, including where Yu Jingjing was, was all cut in an instant.
Holding the broken puppet that Yu Jingjing confessed, I tried my best to avoid the falling broken wood, but I couldn't escape the fate of being buried. I don't know if it was misfortune or luck, because the trees were cut into broken pieces, and with the protection of the flames, I tried my best to remove the fallen leaves of the broken trees, and finally saw the light of day, so I saw the tragic scene of the strange stone forest.
"It's about the same as Green's head......"
Recalling Yu Jingjing's instructions, I didn't care about the 3721 soul binding order attached to the broken puppet, but nothing happened.
"Done?"
"How could it be. β
Roar, under the effect of wind magic, Yu Jingjing, who seemed to be unharmed but looked a little struggling, fell to my side.
"Rank Five Winds Magician Yu Jingjing, Ling, Soul Binding Restraint, Blockade. β
The card that Yu Jingjing took turned black, and then several black lines flew out of it to tie up the bad doll and drag it into the card.
"It's over?" I saw Yu Jingjing take back the card as it was, and asked her, "What about that one over there?"
"The core of the ontology is this. Capture this, and that will naturally disappear. β
"Where's the puppet?"
"Its tailgators, all gone. β
"Are there any wreckage?"
"There won't be. β
Yu Jingjing looked around, and when she found something, she abandoned me and ran away. It turned out that it was Kojiro who was buried by Ki and Ye.
"Yu Jingjing, you ......"
The domineering wind mage threatened Alex with a soul device and ordered, "Give me your contact machine." β
"Don't you have a liaison?" asked Josh.
"My liaison was taken away by the Dark Mage while saving Xiao Hui. β
Hearing the name of my companion, I hurriedly asked Yu Jingjing, "Where is Xiao Hui?"
"Adam was protecting him. Now, give me the contact machine. β
Reluctantly, Alex handed over the phone and said, "Even if you use our phone, you won't be able to contact the teacher." β
Seeing Yu Jingjing accept the contact machine, Josh wanted to say something.
"Shut up and keep quiet. β
The two boys were silent, while Kojiro and I, who knew each other, quietly watched Yu Jingjing operate.
"What's wrong?" I asked.
Letter from Adam. Before the mission began, I deliberately explained to him, and in case of emergency, I used the code to communicate with each other. β
"What did he say?"
Yu Jingjing was silent, and only replied to me after the operation was completed: "Xiao Hui and Adam are together, but Charlie and Ma Chao are nowhere to be found. What about Park Ji-woo?"
"He ......," Kojiro plucked up the courage to answer Yu Jingjing, "Ji-woo is with the two travelers to protect them from the Silent Puppeteers." β
"What kind of silent puppeteer?"
I was the first to answer: "White hat and white suit, white mask and hood." β
"Really?"
You're just saying "yes......
"Let's go to Xiao Hui. Yu Jingjing gave an order.
"Wait, we have to save ...... first"
"It's okay," Yu Jingjing solemnly announced to us, "As a student representative, I order you: the mission has changed, and everyone must do their best to protect Xiao Hui and his soul artifact, Dalai Crystal. "Don't forget the latest chapter of the "Don't Forget the Blessing and Claw Book House of the Past in the Past" is free to read for the first time.
