Chapter Seventy-Two: The Unavoidable Battle
The countess courted inexplicably, which was obviously not normal. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
Warlock blood, demon blood, abnormal impulses......
Green didn't think of a "vampire slayer", but thought of his own anomalous soul.
After all, Grimm is a traverser, his soul is definitely not ordinary, and coupled with the relationship between himself and the Shadow Demon King, his soul must be very special! Warlocks are a soul-sensitive profession, so Green doesn't know what they're aware of in them.
The mortal soul is imprisoned in the body, the body is the body, the soul is the soul, and the growth of the strength of the body does not affect the soul. However, when you advance to the Silver Tier, the soul and body are highly compatible, and the connection between the two will become very close.
If you want to describe it, before the silver level, the soul was a special energy in the brain, and the soul manipulated the body through the brain and nervous system; After the silver level, the soul energy will be distributed throughout the body, both offensive and defensive will be protected by the soul, and the soul will begin to grow with the body.
After the silver level, the biggest benefit is that the resistance to "mind control" spells will be greatly increased. Before the Silver Order, the soul manipulated the body through the brain and nervous system, so mind control spells could easily replace the control of the body of the mortal soul with a slight "cut" on the nerve center. After the silver level, the soul energy covers the whole body, and any spiritual spell will oppose the will of the recipient.
But after the silver level, there is also a small drawback. After the soul energy covers the whole body, some people with special vision can directly see the "soul light" on the surface of the body, and some people can even see some special information from the soul light - power type, class level, and even personality.
Green suspected that the countess had found something in herself.
"Careless. Mages value knowledge, so I don't care if I find out that my soul is abnormal, but warlocks are a soul-oriented profession...... What if she finds out that my soul is 'nourishing' and wants to eat me...... No, she did seem to have said that she was going to 'eat' me, in another sense. ”
Green didn't know what Count Ladia was up to, but that didn't stop him from being wary of him.
For safety reasons, Green felt that it was better to run away quickly, in case the spell was not stolen, and someone else stole his own person first, then he would have no place to cry.
"Shivena, pack your bags, let's leave immediately!" Green informed Shivina, who was teaching her daughter to read in her room.
"In such a hurry? Did something happen? Shivina looked at Green in surprise.
"I don't know. But Count Radia gave me a sense of foreboding, and it was better for us to slip away first, just in case. ”
“…… I understand. Sylvina hurriedly began to pack her luggage.
Fortunately, everyone had just settled, and not all the things in the suitcase were taken out, so it was quite quick to pack up.
Stuffing the toiletries and some loose items back into the suitcase, Green and the group dragged the suitcase out of the attic and headed for the stable.
However, to Green's surprise, Count Radia was waiting for him in the stables!
Seeing the countess's posture, Green's face couldn't help but become gloomy: "Saqia, Xivina, Arya, if you find that the other party wants to make a move, don't hesitate, drink the fire kang potion immediately!" ”
"Yes."
"Understood."
"Oh......"
After giving instructions on the precautions, Green did not hesitate to put on a layer of mage armor on himself, and then walked over slowly: "Lord Earl, do you have anything else?" ”
Seeing Green's expression as if he was facing a great enemy, the countess's attitude was very normal: "Master Green, stay and have dinner before leaving." If you don't even eat dinner, people will know that they will laugh at our Ladia family for not knowing etiquette. ”
"I'm sorry. Your enthusiasm, Lord Count, scares me so much that I dare not linger here long. Green said bluntly.
The countess stared at Green for a long time, and saw that Green seemed to mean it.
"I'm so sorry for my previous faux pas." The countess said with a social smile.
Green: "I accept your apologies, and if I have the chance next time, I hope to have afternoon tea with you." ”
"Don't wait until next time, you can now." The countess spoke.
"I'm afraid not right now. I'm in a terrible mood right now, and I really don't want to stay here anymore. Green shook his head, stubbornly refusing. Spending the night in an enemy's house? Green wasn't that brave yet.
"Please also be sure to stay and accept my apologies." The countess's tone became a little cold, and the feeling of threat was exposed!
Hearing the countess's words, Green was silent for two seconds: "Lord Earl, I'm just a traveling mage, and I really don't want to grudge a lord like you. ”
Green said as he quickly glanced around the members behind the countess.
A gold-level countess, a silver-level maid, and a black iron earl's second son, and an ordinary groom, if there is a conflict, Green's side has the advantage, but once the guards in the castle detect the battle here, they will soon rush over.
Two minutes...... No, only a minute at most. If you can't end the battle for a minute, I'm afraid you'll have to face the castle guards next.
"Master, you're really joking." With a gentle smile on her face, the countess said, "I'm just asking you to stay for a cup of afternoon tea, and apologize to you by the way." ”
All right. It seems that there is nothing to talk about......
Without hesitation, Shakia poured a vial of flame resistance potion into her mouth, and at the same time, two flintlock pistols instantly appeared in Green's hand!
"Bang!"
"Bang!"
One shot was fired at the countess, and another shot was fired at the second count, who was hiding behind the countess. At the same time, Sakia rushed out from behind Grimm!
The countess only moved a little to the side, avoiding the bullets fired by Green. At the same time, the maid standing behind the countess hurriedly blocked the red-haired little Shota behind her, and met the flying bullets with a flaming fist.
"Smack~" A cloud of lightning jumped on the maid's hand, causing the maid to twitch involuntarily.
At the same time, Shakia, who had drunk the fire resistance potion, had already rushed out and rushed in front of the countess.
After being locked up by Shakia, the countess finally sensed that something was wrong.
"Great Sword Master!? How can it be!? The countess's face changed.
Unless it is deliberately hidden, the body of the transcendent powerhouse has the light of the soul, which is easy to distinguish from ordinary people, but the Great Sword Master is different.
The Great Swordsman of the Golden Rank not only has a strong soul, but also has an extremely high degree of control over his own soul, which is not so easy to see. Except for the fact that he might not be able to control his strength when he had just advanced to the Golden Rank, resulting in the release of his spirit, the vast majority of Great Sword Masters usually looked like an ordinary Silver Rank or even a mortal. Therefore, the countess did not realize that Shakia was actually a golden rank like herself.
But......
It's just a golden tier, which is a bit unexpected, but it's not a big deal.
A stream of flame erupted from the countess's feet and spread rapidly in all directions. At the same time, the countess reached out and pulled out the sword at her waist and met Sachia's sword!
Sakia, who had just drunk the flame resistance potion, completely ignored the flames around her and slashed at the countess without hesitation!
The two swords intersected, but they pierced directly like two phantoms......
Not good! A hint of alarm flashed in the countess's heart, and she quickly changed direction.
But by this time it was too late. Sakia's blade slashed across the countess's waist and sliced through.
"Hmm~" The countess let out a painful snort and hurriedly retreated.
At the same time, the countess was horrified to find that the sword in her hand seemed to have undergone some unusual changes.
How could Shakia give her a chance and continue the pursuit without hesitation!
In the face of Shakia's pressing step-by-step, the countess did not dare to block, so she could only try to dodge, but Shakia's speed was faster than that of the countess! The countess instantly added several invisible wounds to her body.
But in this short moment, the flames have completely spread, igniting the surrounding stables, and the entire stable has turned into a sea of fire! Many of the horses fled in fright, wailing in the flames, and a scorching smell began to fill the air.
At this moment, "Whew~", the countess turned into a ball of flames and disappeared into the flames.
――――
Jump in Fire: Gain the ability to enter and move between flames, teleporting yourself into any other sufficiently large flame at a distance. The duration is 10 minutes/level, and it can be used 1 time/level in a row.
――――
The countess appeared in another part of the fire.
The countess glanced at the sword in her hand, and a hint of anger appeared on her face: "Damn it! I'll kill you! ”
Originally, the sword in the countess's hand had a large eye and a large number of vein-like things entwined, and it looked like a living thing, but now, the sword was lifeless, and it looked like it had lost its life.
Looking at the sword in his hand, and then thinking of the "wounds" on his body, the countess's face was a little gloomy. Apparently, she had noticed something strange about Shakia's sword.
Shakia ignored the countess's anger, took the sword, and rushed straight over, but before Saqia could get closer, the countess disappeared into the flames again, and instantly appeared behind Shakia!
Chop!
The countess swung her sword and slashed at Shakia.
Sakia threw her sword scabbard (broom) behind her and met the sword in the countess's hand......
[Forced Counterattack]!
"Bell!" There was a muffled thud on the ground, and the sword in the countess's hand seemed to be slashed against a heavy shield.
However, before Sakia could turn around and launch a counterattack, the countess had already disappeared into the flames again......
