Chapter 288: Homing, Scattered Puzzle Pieces
As Xuan Yu's voice fell, the gentle tone was like a pearl falling from a porcelain plate, leaving a crisp sound of 'bell-'.
The aftermath lingers.
After this charming call, the sunset outside the window also completely fell at this moment, ushering in darkness......
It was a kind of gloom that swept over in an instant, without excess.
It sprang out of the sky, like a pool of ink splashed in the sky, quickly dyeing everything that could be seen, touched, and covered with a bottomless pitch black......
"It's time."
Suddenly, Xuanfu, who was standing in the depths of this abandoned hall, stood up and patted the dust on his body casually.
Rin heard the prestige, though he didn't know what he meant by time.
However, just as the Xuan Yu words fell, they saw that the ground under their feet suddenly lit up with a slightly dazzling light.
Fragments of light gradually converge and agglutinate on the ground.
At first, it was like a bright spot like fireflies, but after gradually expanding the range of lighting like a connection from end to end, Rin finally found that those lights were now solemnly chained into a cage hanging from the ceiling, forming a perfect counterpoint, a seven-pointed star array......
As shown in the spiritual power books, the seven-pointed star is a very complex spiritual power array technique. It is also the only singular number, but it can still be evenly distributed in a special array body.
It has long been recorded that the gods made man in six days and rested for seven days; There are seven deadly sins in man, and in the darkness there are seven great monarchs, who dominate and dominate.
No one knows what the seven-pointed star's array activation will summon.
But the more unknown it is, the more intriguing it is, and in the ancient books of spiritual power, from the initial secret record to the final direct statement, there is only one place, and that is - "Space Secret Technique".
At the same time, the "elemental spirits" hanging from the ceiling and placed in cages were also as if they were attracted by some kind of power at the moment, and they were dripping their spirits downward like an hourglass.
Blue water, brownish-yellow earth, lilac thunder......
Each element corresponds to its own same attributes, colors, like water droplets on a slender silk thread, forming a thin line that flashes with brilliance, which is merging with the array on the ground.
But Rin didn't have time to care about anything else, she just went straight to the pale green silk thread in the center, connecting Mercury's body!
Filled with the breath of life, the wind attribute silk thread is connecting to Mercury's arm at this moment, silently eating away at life, and making Mercury's face become more and more pale.
"Talos!"
Rin called back, exchanging glances with Talos.
Talos immediately comprehended and half-crouched down.
The low-hanging arms and shoulders form a perfect stepping ladder, almost without thinking, stepping on Talos's arms and using force to climb his shoulders!
With the force rising from under his feet, Rin flew over the cage that closed the mercury.
The chains rattled in mid-air, and when Xuan Wu saw this, he raised the beast claws behind him and it was a swift blow!
But Talos wasn't a pretty vase, and before the beast's claws could get closer, the sword in his hand was already in the surface......
"Ice Barrier Openβ"
With a cold spell from Talos, the sword descended into the ground and instantly blocked a thick layer of ice crystals.
The ice wall is fast wind, sharp as a blade, and the moment it rises from the ground, it seems to form a thousand-year-old wall that will not penetrate, not to mention blocking the mysterious attack, and cutting off the chains connected to the cage together!
The heavy iron cage fell violently.
But Rin Rin got into the cage without thinking about it and hugged the mercury tightly!
'Boom-'
The iron cage fell heavily to the ground, and the violent vibration seemed to make people's internal organs be wantonly stirred and moved, and they felt nauseous and uncomfortable.
Seeing this, Talos hurriedly stepped forward.
But before he could get closer, a broken boulder on the ceiling suddenly fell down!
ββ¦β¦β
A muffled sound came to my ears.
Rin opened his eyes, only to see that Talos was standing in the cage at some point, using his body against the falling stone slab.
On the stone slab, a clear spiritual seal emerged from it.
In the spirit seal, objects like garden eels floating under the deep sea were swaying out of the mark wantonly, wrapping around Talos's body, making him unable to advance or retreat.
"Rin, Rin...... Find a way to get out ......"
Talos held on to the slab to keep it from falling, and said intermittently to Rin who was trapped in the cage.
Rin nodded, glanced briefly at the mercury she was holding in her arms, and made sure she wasn't hurt before relieving herself for the time being.
However, just as she picked up Mercury and was about to leave, the silk thread wrapped around Mercury's arm that was eroding the spirit in her body little by little could not be torn off.
Looking around, I looked at the huge "Spatial Secret Technique" that was almost completed under me......
"Xuanfu, you should know what the consequences of rashly activating the 'Spatial Secret Technique' will be. Once this formation starts, it's not something you can control with just one force! β
Looking at the formation technique that gradually became clear under his feet, Rin Rin wanted to stop it, but he couldn't do it for a while.
She could only delay as much as she could, trying to find a way to rip off the silk threads that were wrapped around Mercury's arm.
"Originally, I just wanted to use that kid to create a doll for me and help me. It's just that I don't know what that guy Ikeme did that actually made Mercury's heart shake......
I can't, I can't allow a plan that has been in the works for a long time to be disrupted by Ikemeichi! So ......"
As he spoke, he saw that the beast claws behind Xuan Yu suddenly stood up, and they were actually dense barbs like scales on the claw arms, hooking down all the broken curtains hanging on the wall.
In an instant, the dust was raised along with the scattered wooden planks, debris, and dust-stained curtains.
Behind the black flannel, countless "armed dolls" stood inside.
Each of them had their eyes closed, and their respective production numbers were engraved on their arms, divided into groups from 1 to 10, like a small army, ready to go.
Rin was shocked by this scene, and she couldn't imagine how Xuan Wu could have so many puppets under the dual supervision of the Cloud Hidden Association and the armed puppet system.
And these puppets are obviously not the kind that circulate between large families, but a large batch of "humanoid weapons" specially made for Xuanfu's use......
"Well, these kids are beautiful, aren't they?"
Xuan Yu walked into the dolls, reached out and stroked the white cheek of one of the armed dolls, and suddenly revealed a strange smile.
"I've really done a lot for this kid. Although I really wanted to help her fulfill her wish and make her a puppet and keep her best moments. But in the end, mercury still let me down......"
Between the words, Xuan's hand stayed on the puppet's cheek, constantly rubbing. And as he became more and more agitated, the strength of his men also increased.
The rough palm almost rubbed the smooth skin surface of the doll, and made fine scratches.
ββ¦β¦β
Suddenly, the movement of Xuan Yu's palm rubbing came to an abrupt end, and he looked distressed like the armed puppet, looking very pityful.
"I'm sorry, I was so excited!"
He opened his mouth to apologize, but his gaze suddenly turned to Rin and smiled, "By the way, you should know this puppet, right?" β
This clueless sentence suddenly gave Rin Rin a stunned question.
But Xuan Wu had already expected her reaction, just smiled, rearranged the clothes on the doll's body, and then took out two throwing knives from his pocket and put them in the doll's hands.
"Maybe the appearance of the puppets will be different when they are made, but their spirits will not change...... If you remember this throwing knife, you probably won't forget him, right? β
After saying this, Rin Rin's eyes were finally attracted by the flying knife.
"That's ...... Chis's Throwing Knife! β
At this moment, Rinrin's eyes suddenly dilated. From disbelief, to extreme shock......
And when she found out about this, one after another, two, countless familiar figures, weapons and physical characteristics under her control all emerged one after another like duckweed pressed under the water.
"You...... You were the one who destroyed the Eight Wonders Circus, it was you who used illusion to create the illusion of a magic attack and a fire, and then killed everyone in the circus......"
Memories of the past are reawakened, the fire in the circus, and the fragments of a puzzle scattered in my mind.
Those who originally explained different things like a mystery, those who were in the circus, who promised to leave together and wanted to promise themselves a better future, but suddenly chose to resist and then died in the fire, the circus friends......
Everything finally found the final answer in this mysterious remark.
"It's all you......"
Rin Rin's eyes were red, staring at Xuan Yu who was standing not far away.
"Finally, remember?"
Seeing Rinrin's eyes full of resentment, Xuan Yu suddenly laughed.
"You're all right, but there's one thing I have to correct. It's not that I ruined the circus, it's that the circus, which I founded in the first place......"
ββ¦β¦β
As soon as the words came out, Rin Rin was suddenly stunned, only to feel that the amount of information was too great.
But she soon reacted.
It turned out that Xuan Yu had been preparing since that early on.
The smuggling of spirits in the Eight Wonders Circus is nothing more than a covert behind his back, as a cover for mercury to capture spirits, a tool for him to release from the outside.
All the preparations are just to create this team of armed puppets that are exclusively driven by the mystery today, at this moment......
