Volume 1 - Showers Chapter 118: Goodbye, My Love (1)
"Anthony, don't be impulsive!" Michael stopped Anthony's adventurous advance.
"Mr. Michael! I know these two are not easy to deal with, not to mention the monsters here. Anthony grasped the sword in his hand and held it carefully in front of his chest. Although he was talking to Michael, his eyes were always focused on the woman floating on the sword, the Elephant Summoner Brand, and of course, the monsters floating behind Brand.
According to Anthony's judgment, the monster-like thing resembles the Orzhov Angel - he had seen the description of this creature in Andy Bathilda's "The Kingdom of China", Anna had told him some Jane Goodall's "The Biology of Elsa", and Anna had turned the page of the Orzhov Angel to show Anthony a portrait of a hand.
Honestly, though the Orzhov Angels weren't such good-looking creatures, oh, let's be creatures, because that's how Lady Jane Goodall classified.
Although the Orzhov angels looked crooked and cracked, they were not so abominable and distorted: their smooth gray-white feathers turned into a tarry-black stickiness, as if something had stuck to their wingsβlike a corpse dragon, and their hands and feet, which had been human-like, had become eagle-like talons; Their beaks are grafted and apparently grafted with the beaks of some kind of avian creature, which prevents them from opening their mouths completely, and the corners of their mouths often twist into an angle to look like an eerie smile.
These Orzhov angels were clearly modified, their ribcages were open, there were no beating hearts inside, only a thick cloud of black mist-like strands of flesh - those disgusting strands of flesh were also wrapped in black lines, apparently the effects of black striation.
These angels have no skin on their faces, instead they have rolled up cuticles that look like some kind of shell, or the curled scales of some dragon. Their eyes were purple-black, dark red, and they had no pupils. Of course, there may be, but it's no longer distinguishable.
The most special thing is that their bodies are divided into two parts, their upper body still has a regular biological shape, and from the abdomen, the whole body part is simply some twisted pieces of flesh, still wriggling, as if all the organs have been pulled out and then stirred back together. It was obvious that there was a glowing red core between the wriggling organs, and it looked like some kind of gem, or maybe some mana cluster.
"Mr. Michael, those monsters feel very dangerous to me. It was clearly a modified creature, and the prototype of these monsters was probably the Orzhov Angel, I have seen their hand drawings, and many of the features are very similar, but the differences are also very obvious. Anthony said.
"That's right, I'm afraid these are the things that our Elephant Summoner Lady Brand made, right? Am I right? Ms. Brand? To be honest, if you are still on the right path, you should be a more beautiful creature at this time, after all, the Simic scholars are very good at the technique of grafting, and the general union does not have your technical level, except for Yijie, of course, but Minnie Mouse is obviously not taking this route. Michael shouted to Brand as he put one hand behind his back and gave some code signals and instructions to Anthony and the soldiers they led.
Anthony understood what Michael meant, and ordered the soldiers to move their steps quietly and slowly, while those who had not yet entered the cave brought the captured explosive oil and crossbows, and now Anthony was quietly ordering them to load. In addition to this, there was also a captain who was given a secret signal, and Michael ordered him to lead twenty men around the back of the cave to see if there was another exit to the cave.
"That's right, little Michael. I have to say, you are not like those idiots, you are worthy of being a student of Nicholas. I gotta say, even among the few students in Nicholas, you're the one who stands out, right? Brand's crisp voice rang out. Anthony was surprised, the figures on both sides were far away in the dark, and they couldn't really see it in the shadowy candlelight. Anthony thought that the notorious wanted Elephant Summoner Brand should be a gloomy old woman in her forties and fifties, but she didn't expect this voice to be a little beautiful.
"Don't be so surprised, kid." Michael walked slowly towards the cave as if he were strolling leisurely, in fact his wand was always in his hand, ready to shoot a spell. "Ms. Brand was also a respected Simic genius, and she discovered many surprising and crazy techniques, such as slow metabolism, which is the secret to keeping her young. Of course, Lady Brand was also beautiful when she was young, and there were many suitors who filled Falkenridge's palace. However, she eventually married her husband, the genius wizard of her time, the 'Teenage Killer' Loras Grefa. β
"Loras Grefa? Gray Fa... Gray Fa... Who is Clerk de Grefa? Anthony muttered a moment, then suddenly said a name.
"Ahh It's really another outstanding young man, there aren't many such talents, Michael, it seems that this kid has a lot to do with you, I've heard of your talent for a long time, you have an outstanding talent in cultivating the next generation of nobles and elites, it's a pity, you didn't go to be a professor, I think the Holy Falcon Empire Wizarding Academy didn't let you be the vice principal, but chose the little ghost named Victor who was chasing me with you as the vice principal, it's really stupid! Stupid Dilpet. Young man, you have a keen sense, and de Grefa is my husband's brother-in-law. Brand didn't move, but she spoke to Michael as she ordered the monsters behind her to move forward. The Yanqiu Daoist manipulated the flying sword to rise into the air, inserting his hands into the wide sleeved robe, as if he did not intend to make a move.
"It's true that I'm not fit to be a consultant, but a teacher. But I'm also one of Anthony's fourth-quarter teachers, a hardworking and talented kid from an early age. Ma'am, you're right, Principal Deerpett did offer to have me succeed as Vice Principal after he retired. However, I refused, and after that, the Heavenly Dao Cycle, Yanqiu Dao Chief, I don't know if my name is right, I have been in the Qin'a Empire for a long time, it is really magnificent, the technique of Dragon Teng Dunjia is not something that can be used by a casual cultivator. β
βοΌοΌβ The flying sword at Yanqiu's feet trembled quickly, her brows furrowed, and her hands no longer pinched the magic trick, but the magic trick changed, conjuring a pair of Qiankun circles out of thin air.
"Heavenly Cycle, Mr. Michael. You're strong! Not that mana power, though, I'm talking about your knowledge and insight. Yanqiu said in the air.
"Daoist Yanqiu, this man in front of you is indeed a genius. However, I would like to say, Michael, as a senior, I would like to invite you to join me once again, and yes, I will still give you this opportunity, just as you did when you blinded me in my left eye. I am delighted with your genius and your thirst for knowledge. I think we will be good research partners, and with a few more like-minded partners, we will be able to completely solve the secret of black striat. I think that since you know me so well, you have obviously read a lot of my papers, and you should be able to understand me! Brand said excitedly.
"That's true, Ms. Brand, what kind of gifts have you prepared for this time?" Michael asked with interest.
"Look, Michael, what do you think of Secrets of the Six? I can also add "Forbidden Gold", even, you see what this is! Brand stroked his index finger over a book, and a magnified page appeared in the hole.
Michael didn't speak for a long time, just frowned and looked through the ancient Grimel High Elves until Brand withdrew his magic. "The Book of Border, the power of the High Elves of Guramel, the power of "life and death". Is the Yanqiu Daoist also chasing this force? β
"Me and Ms. Brand have no intention of using it for evil, and I believe Ms. Brand at this point." The Qiankun circle of Yanqiu has shimmered slightly.
"That's right! We just want to ask for a husband from 'some supreme being', you are not a woman, you don't understand. Brand agreed. How, Michael? I can see that you are also hungry for this knowledge, and you can't fool anyone! Your expression just now produced a moment of greed! That's your truest desire! β
"I have to admit, Ms. Brand, you are also a very perceptive person. I have to say, I was tempted, at that moment. β
So, the answer? Michael Donavan! β
"It's a pity, but then I thought about it, what I want more than the power of life and death is the lives of the two of you, and I want it now! Everything penetrates! Michael slammed to the side, dodged the goose hill and threw a Qiankun circle, and at the same time shot a white light at Brand, officially Michael's special skill: everything penetrates.
"Anthony, cover shot! I'll deal with Yanqiu and Brand, you must kill those angels! Don't worry, I've seen through those things! That's not a secondary infection of black striae at all! It was the Orzhov Angel who had been modified by the colonization technology and infiltrated by the third-degree infection of black striate disease and the dragon virus at the same time. Attacking the red core of their abdomen, it wasn't magic, it was the reality of the axis of time wrapped in blood all over their bodies. These things can only be killed by breaking there, which is determined by the characteristics of the real time-axis, in terms of rank, the third-level infection of black striated disease and the dragon virus are not enough qualifications, and it is still possible to change to the second-level infection of black striat, which means that they are still time-axis creatures! Damn, running water film! Michael reminded Anthony and his soldiers to cover themselves as he covered himself with a shield made of water to shield himself from the black-green corrosive gas emitted by Brand's wand.
"Shoot all! Shoot down that woman scurrying around in the sky! In the air, she couldn't flexibly adjust her attitude, the first team forced to shoot, and the second team pre-aimed! I don't have time for that woman in heaven to cast spells! The rest of the troops shoot the red cores of those monsters' bellies! Anthony shouted.
"Even if you see through it? Decline! Do you think these soldiers alone can defeat my angels? Brand defiantly challenged Michael as he unleashed a vicious spell behind a stone pillar. When the two sides are at war, sometimes language is also a powerful weapon.
Michael clearly knows this, and he also colored: "As long as you know the weakness, there is nothing to be afraid of!" Why, is this the only level for ladies? It's not enough, obviously it won't save your husband. β
Brand was not provoked, she knew that this little ghost was very cunning, and once she was guided to her emotions, she would really lose her life in this dilapidated cave. So she took a deep breath, calmed her emotions, and continued to bombard Michael's stalagmites with an endless stream of vicious spells.
With Anthony's order, the crossbowmen were suppressing the Yanqiu in the air, but to Anthony's surprise, all the crossbow arrows that were about to hit Yanqiu were inexplicably deflected in an instant. Moreover, the Qiankun circle in her hand seemed to be bound together by some kind of mana, and the Qiankun circle she threw would always automatically return to her side with her own movements, and all obstacles in the path of the Qiankun circle would be shredded by the spinning sharp weapon.
