Volume 1: Through the Demon Race Chapter 19: The Battle of the Demon Spirits (1)
In a blink of an eye, it was twelve o'clock in the middle of the night, before the gate of the abandoned mansion, the street was already empty at this time, but today there was an abnormal standing a little boy with a height of about 1.50 meters and an age of 11.
Karl seemed to notice something and turned around all of a sudden, but he didn't find anything, and his heart couldn't help but be afraid, his sister Eleanor Vera had clearly said that she was just going back to the mansion to get something, and asked him to wait here for a while, he didn't know that Eleanor had deliberately left him here, the reason was just to attract Sherlock, he was the Marquis of Hobert Vera, the youngest son, Count Carl Vera.
Suddenly shocked, he knew that this mansion was a ghost mansion, thinking of this, his heart suddenly became afraid, just when he turned around to go down the stairs, the door suddenly opened, a bloody hand grabbed his ankle without warning, Carl was defenseless and fell to the ground all of a sudden, his heart was so scared, he couldn't help but struggle desperately.
He clung to the ground with both hands, as if he wanted to grasp something that could save his life, but he was dragged in, and the ground was left with only ten long blood marks, and the door was tightly closed.
Early the next morning.
Inside Vera's mansion, Eleanor was wondering why Carl hadn't come back until now, and Carl's maid, who had been looking for her, suddenly ran in from outside with a frightened face, looking like she had seen a ghost: "Miss, Master Carl is missing." ”
Eleanor suddenly stood up from her chair when she heard this, her eyes widened in shock, and she couldn't believe what her ears had heard, didn't she let him stay where he was. This damn stinky little ghost will cause trouble for himself, and he must not let his father and mother know about this matter, otherwise, the consequences will be unimaginable.
The two of them take care of Carl as a treasure, if they know that they lost each other, when the time comes, they will definitely break one of their legs, because as the eldest sister, she should protect her younger brother, in fact, she wishes that the other party died early, so that no one will compete with her for the head of the Vera family, although Britain is not without a precedent for women to be in charge, but it has always been dominated by boys.
Even if the previous head of the family died, the real estate of the family still fell into the hands of the head of the family as a matter of course, and the woman could only get a part of the inheritance.
It's just that now is not the time to think about this, but to find a way to hide it, just when she was thinking of a way, Hobert suddenly broke in angrily, and without saying a word, he raised his hand and gave her a hard slap, and the slap suddenly resounded throughout the room, and everyone was stunned, only to hear Hobert pointing at her angrily: "Eleanor, you think I don't know that you deliberately left Carl there last night, listen, even if he dies, this position of head of the family will not be yours, never!" ”
Eleanor was dumbfounded, she was already terrified to the extreme, she didn't expect the other party to break in and give her a slap, and she didn't expect the matter to be revealed so early, between the lightning and flint, she looked at the maid Ivy on the side, but saw the panic on the other side, and immediately understood that it was her secret, but she didn't expect that the person who betrayed her in the end turned out to be the person next to her, and after Hobart left, she jumped up and gave the other party a slap, almost slapping her face in half.
Hobert and the guards searched for three days but could not find Karl's figure, and in anger he reprimanded Eleanor, and it was useless to let the Marquise persuade him, one midnight, a drunkard passed by the abandoned mansion, but saw an eleven-year-old boy standing there, as if waiting for someone, as soon as he saw him, he raised his head and asked: "Uncle, have you seen my sister, will you take me to find my sister?" “
The drunkard suddenly woke up and thought about how could there be a child at this time, not to mention, he looked at the mansion behind the other party, this is still a famous ghost mansion, and seeing that this child turned out to be the count of the Vera family who had been missing for three days, and then looked down at him, and saw two lines of blood and tears flowing out of the little boy's eyes, all the way to the position of his chin, which looked extremely terrifying, the drunk didn't scream and quickly broke free of the little boy's hand, and ran away as if he was running away.
Karl's face, which was originally very calm, suddenly became extremely hideous, and in the blink of an eye, he was dragged into the mansion by hundreds of pale hands behind him.
The drunken took Detective Arthur Randall here the next morning, and told him exactly what happened to him last night, but when the two of them arrived here, they found that there was nothing, let alone any children, and the doors of the mansion were well locked, and the seals were intact, and there were traces of tearing off.
Chad was so surprised that he couldn't speak, what was going on, could it be that he was really hallucinating last night, it must be a hallucination, otherwise if he said anything, those people would probably put him in an insane asylum as a psychopath, that kind of ghost place is not a joke.
He couldn't help but look at the other party with some annoyance: "Mr. Chad, you must have drunk too much last night to hallucinate, if you say any more haunted stupid things, I don't mind throwing you directly into prison for the crime of maliciously spreading rumors." ”
Before Chad could come back to his senses, he turned around and walked away, so that he couldn't even see his shadow.
It was midnight in a blink of an eye, Sherlock came all the way to the abandoned mansion in a black suit, and sure enough, he saw Carl standing there, Carl saw that there was a trace of fear on his face, and he didn't ask that sentence as long as someone passed by, but turned around and was about to enter the mansion, but only heard a voice behind him: "Do you want to find your sister?" ”
Karl paused suddenly when he heard this, turned his head and looked at him in surprise, and only after a long time did he ask, "Can you really take me to my sister?" But there's no way I can get out of here. ”
"As long as you trust me, I'll help you get out of here."
Carl was hesitating to believe the demon contractor in front of him, but he wanted to leave here in his heart, after all, he was not dead yet, and it was about to dawn at this time, thinking of this, he walked back to the other party, and raised his hand to grab the corner of Sherlock's clothes as before: "You take me to my sister." ”
A purple beam of light burst through the roof of the abandoned mansion and burst out into the sky, and a huge purple "pentagram contract array" appeared in the dark and boundless sky
Early the next morning, Vera Mansion Hobert was about to take someone to find Carl again, no matter how much it cost, he had to find the other party, at this moment, a doorbell rang, the housekeeper opened the door, as soon as he opened the door, the whole person was stunned in place, and then there was a burst of surprise, the person who came was not someone else but they had found Carl for four days, he almost couldn't believe it was the truth, just when he saw Sherlock, he was stunned for a moment, and he listened to Carl explain: "Butler Benson, he saved me." ”
"Daddy!" When Hobart heard this, he looked up and saw Carl running towards him, at first he thought that he was hallucinating because he was too worried, and waited until the other party held his hand to believe that it was real, and Carl really came back alive.
Eleanor came out of the room and saw Carl alive in front of her, but her face showed an extremely frightened expression, as if she had seen a ghost, and she suspected that it was only the ghost of the other party standing there.
Carl turned his head to look at her, and a smile appeared on his face: "Sister, do you seem to be afraid of me?" ”
Eleanor didn't know why he felt that his smile looked very weird, and there was a bitter hatred in that smile as if to say: Sister, I've been to hell once, and this time it's your turn.
"Sister, didn't you leave me there just to use me to find Sherlock Ford Heslett, and sister also has resentful people?"
Carl asked this very directly, and he was so eager to let everyone know that it was her sister who left him, and he was immediately furious: "Carl, what nonsense are you talking about, when did I say this to you?" You-"
She couldn't say anything the moment she saw Sherlock, because she understood everything, it was he who saved Carl, so the person who should have been dead was able to come back alive today, Carl should not know anything, but because of this person, he can know the truth of the matter.
Sherlock stepped forward to look at Eleanor, a smile on his lips, but there was an indescribable coldness in this smile, and Eleanor only felt a chill down her spine: "I don't know Miss Eleanor, what's the matter with me?" ”
"No, it's fine."
Eleanor couldn't help but scold Carl for his life, but Hobert couldn't show it here, so he could only say with a smile, but this smile was very stiff, and it was even more ugly than crying.
Sherlock had a smile on his lips and became extremely indifferent, saying goodbye to Hobart before turning away.
Suddenly, in the distant sky, several purple-black gases gathered together from all directions, and a huge whirlwind had formed in an instant, and the emperor pressed the remote control switch, and the buildings in the residential area and the commercial street were added with double protection devices.
"Wisp invasion?"
Sherlock looked at the strange purple-black whirlwind.
On the main street of the United Kingdom, a group of Lorentlan people riding on a green celestial phenomenon had broken through the defense and attacked, and the middle-aged man in a purple-blue military uniform raised the sword in his hand, the tip of the sword pointed at Edwina, and his tone was extremely provocative: "Is your Earl Ford Heslett afraid of death and dare not come out!" ”
Edvina was annoyed and was about to reply, when she heard a long roar of an eagle, which suddenly resounded in the sky, Edvina and the five million demon knights behind her all looked back and saw a fiery eagle with a body of sixteen feet, it was a golden flame eagle, it was covered with black feathers, with a fiery red light and shadow at the end, a pair of golden eyes as large as lanterns, emitting a terrifying light, waving wide wings and slowly stopping at the extremely sharp blade of the sword that Edwina blocked for her.
Sherlock stood on it and looked down at the hundreds of thousands of demon soldiers in the country of Lorrantlan, and with a "snap", he opened the ghost branch in his hand and fanned the fiery "five-pointed star" fire wall technique to block the sword blade that the opponent stabbed directly.
"I didn't expect that Emperor Grant would be so condescending to the point of going to battle in person, and it is also by doing everything himself to win the love of your whole clan." This sounds like a compliment to Grant's love for the people like a son, but in fact it is a sarcasm that he, the emperor god, is just unworthy of his name.
The black smoke of Grant's sword body slowly condensed into an ice-based three-pointed star formation at the tip of the sword, water and fire have been incompatible since ancient times, and neither of the two was helpless who was stalemate on both sides for a while, and the magic hurricane on the two of them was also undiminished, and it caused great changes in the world, at this moment, no one noticed that Grant's left hand fingers were holding a beast emperor demon whip at some point, and he waved the whip high in his left hand, but it was in the direction of Edwina, and the powerful magic air flow broke the puppets summoned by Edwina. The golem let out a terrible scream and then vanished, but the air did not abate, and it headed straight for Edvena.
Sherlock closed the ghost branch fan in his hand and turned into an extremely sharp ghost branch sword, and the powerful fire wave and the water blade canceled each other out at once, but unexpectedly, the long sword in Grant's hand instantly pierced his body and pierced his left abdomen, and Grant was also abolished by his flame forbidden spell on his right arm, and fled in panic with hundreds of thousands of demon spirits.
Sherlock couldn't help but spurt out a mouthful of blood, Edvina couldn't help but feel very guilty when she saw this, Ian, who originally participated in this defense against the attack of the Glen Gran Star Attack, should have had thunder magic, but in order to save himself, he was pierced through his left abdomen by the poisoned arrow of the sneak attacker, and now Sherlock is also in his body to save himself.
As the other party's servant, she was saved by the two of them one after another, and she really felt that she was too useless, but fortunately, Heloise's magic was healing.
Today is just a small-scale war, and the next one is estimated to be very troublesome, not to mention that now two more people are injured because of her Edwina, and the two strongest magicians are injured one after another, fortunately, the emperor god accidentally sent two magicians of the wind and gold magic The two of them are a pair of brothers and sisters, saying that they helped their brother is called Carey, and the sister is called Anna.
On the morning of the second day, the toxins in Ian and Sherlock's bodies had been detoxified, and they were discussing how to defend themselves against the next attack of the people of Grantland in the study, when they saw Heloise burst in angrily, and the two of them were stunned at the same time, looking at him strangely and not knowing what medicine she had taken wrong.
In the end, it was Sherlock who was the first to notice the visible slap mark on her left cheek, and couldn't help but be surprised: "Your face? ”
