115 And I have taken the head of the enemy here as if I had probed for the ears of things
"Strange, how did the world become so quiet?"
With the anti-gravity levitation ability of the Lingzi incarnation body at this moment, Bai Ze, who was slowly flying through the air, was silent everywhere he looked.
Although there were dots of life in his perception, it was as if he was frozen in the air, and there was no trace of activity - in this seemingly vibrant but dead environment, even if he did not have the body's nervous structure to control his emotional changes, there was still an inexplicable panic.
However, because in this state, the ability to observe the outside world by receiving light and transforming visual information into visual information through both eyes has been completely lost, and the skills of perceiving the outside world by releasing and receiving mental fluctuations have not yet been familiarized, so everything "seeing" is blurred, and if you look at a place carefully, it will be too concentrated and the "visible" scope will be too narrow.
Therefore, when he floated up, he diverged his perception through the thoughts that suddenly flashed in his mind, and after locking on to a distant target, he did not stop on the way, lest he lose his position on that target once he diverted his attention.
Although the target he had locked on through his netherworld senses was very far away, the way he was flying was slower than walking when it was first activated, but when it continued to fly in a constant direction, the speed would quickly superimpose over time, and before you knew it, it was much faster than it felt.
So every time it took him to feel like he was out of the forest, and within his perceptual range, a large number of man-made structures appeared.
Even though it has now entered the urban area of Fuyuki City, the population has gradually become denser, but it is still like a static painting, everyone is frozen in place, and even the birds are "suspended out of thin air" in mid-air - until this moment, Bai Ze is sure that the time of all creatures in this world has been stopped, and only he, a special existence with the magic furnace as the core and the form of consciousness descending here, can go beyond the limits of this place and walk between the time dimension and the space dimension!
"Isn't it because I went straight to the main space that has been suspended from time as soon as I came here?"
The teenager, who finally realized this with hindsight, sighed a lot about it, and realized that this state at the moment was really suitable for doing something that was not convenient at other times - for example, going to the homes of several other contestants!
Perhaps among the participants in the Holy Grail War in the past dynasties, Bai Ze, who has been in the library of the three imperial families for a period of time, has mastered the specific location and opening method of the three secret rooms, and in addition to this action, he can completely search for those spell books that the other two have not had time to get in the past - now after flying for a while, as the knowledge that poured into his brain was quickly sorted out and archived, the young man who had regained his freshness was a little ready to move again.
Of course, there are more important things to do before that.
"Hopefully, only the active players can get out of this place at halftime, otherwise it will be almost impossible to catch that old man."
The muttering young man, standing in front of the mansion of the Jian Tong family, recalled the layout of the room he had memorized after wandering around here some time ago, and after adjusting the model of the house structure that had faintly appeared in his mind according to his position at the moment, he immediately set off and dived into the ground - the huge barrier around the mansion also completely failed and fell into stagnation with the suspension of time, allowing him to pass through the floor tiles and walls that were imprinted with countless vicious charms for a moment, and after sneaking for about ten meters, Suddenly, the obstacles around him were gone, and he had appeared in a dark cellar in the darkness of the day, but he fell into a brief stiffness.
The magical aura that completely appeared in his eyes after passing through the wall because it had lost the blocking effect of the runes suddenly dazzled his "eyes" the moment he entered this place—the impact of countless dense points of light suddenly appeared in the originally empty sensing range, no less than a flashbang suddenly received in a dimly lit room.
After a while, he regained his sensitivity to distinguish the difference between different aura, and it was finally not so confusing to look at the white expanse with his "eyes".
"Sure enough, even the Engraved Worm that looks exactly the same will show different colors and brightness from this special perspective where you can directly observe the light radiating from spirit, life, and magic at this moment."
He didn't go to the room above to find the location of the Tong Dirty Yan who always acted in the image of a short old man who was about to die, and went directly to the most secret and well-guarded room in the entire Tong mansion, and sure enough, he didn't let him run in vain—just under the almost uncountable magical brilliance, two humanoid lights and shadows, one tall and one short, stood in the open space in the middle of the room, as if they were discussing something.
"It's really dazzling - such a pure and huge magic, only the Servant can have such a dazzling brilliance here, but he didn't leave this world for the time being like a classmate's servant, could it be that this is also a black household left over from the previous version?!"
Although I have long known that this old man of the Jian Tong family is full of shady scenes, it is likely that he has stayed here illegally since the last version, so relatively speaking, it is still a bit of incense, and most of the Tosaka family's group has been whitewashed, and it is more likely that it can be successfully captured here, but I didn't expect that there would be unexpected surprises.
"Although I can't tell what this heroic spirit looks like and what kind of job it is, but in this current situation, there is no difference and meaning to me, and I am basically waiting to be killed."
Because time has stopped, even if it is as strong as a heroic spirit, as long as it stays here, it will still be limited by the solidified material and energy base of this realm and will not be able to move a bit, even if it exists in the form of a spirit, it will still not change anything.
Slowly stretched his "hand" into the most dazzling place in the humanoid body that symbolized the existence of the servant, which was the heart of the heroic spirits, and the foundation and even the power core of their spirit bodies to exist in this realm—and when he pulled out his hand, a rune ball flew out of his body—
However, before he could make any next move, a white and delicate little hand suddenly broke through the air!
After slapping Bai Ze's outstretched invisible hand away, he turned his palm and fished it away, and then withdrew it, only a delicate and lovely cold snort was left here with the rapid closure of the spatial rift......
"Uh......"
An extremely embarrassing and slightly weak atmosphere arose, which made Bai Ze stunned for a few seconds—but he was also secretly glad that the goddess who was also the administrator was quite dissatisfied with the bad behavior of stealing her two magic furnaces, but she didn't seem to want to investigate, and was slightly relieved.
"Hawkers, what I did before was indeed a bit excessive, prying away two heroic spirits in one go, it seems that I still have to stop a little, don't really mess with the organizers......"
Bai Ze, who muttered a few words, looked away from the servant who had quietly disintegrated with the removal of the core, and the spirit body was thrown towards the servant where the Great Holy Grail was located, and looked at the short figure standing not far away, which was also as stiff as a stone statue.
For Bai Ze at this moment, any means of confusing or misleading others from the material plane no longer have any meaning to him, and any existence will appear in front of him in the most essential and distinct posture - therefore, the engraved worm in the old man's body containing his complete soul and all his magic power, that is, the sense of existence is extremely strong to show its brilliance that is only slightly inferior to the previous heroic spirit!
"Although I accidentally learned from a certain notebook of the Maki family in the library before, the Matong clan has a secret "soul parasitic technique", and I was worried about not finding the location of the soul parasitic thing hidden by the great magician, and whether it can be intercepted before it can be transferred - but at this moment, it seems that all the previous calculations have been completely useless - but this feeling is not bad, but it is easier than the best situation made before. ”
The smiling young man reached out and took out an ultimate luxury version of the "Engraved Worm" composed entirely of magic circuits from the old man's body, and as the Engraved Worm left his body, the energy that was still in the human form in the young man's eyes quickly collapsed and dissolved, and ceased to exist.
Looking at the "bugs" in his hand, which were skillfully combined with countless spell runes, even if he had long understood that the Jian Tong family was nothing more than a declining magic family that had long been eliminated by the times, he still couldn't help but be amazed by their profound attainments in spells - this ability to form special magical creations like creatures with just runes was simply miraculous, completely comparable to the alchemy of the Einzberen clan, which was famous for its android technology.
Although the engraved worm was taken out of the old man's body, he inferred from the aura that flashed on it, representing the mental activity and soul fire, that he found that the Jian Tong Dirty Inkstone was actually still alive in a rather peculiar state, and he could even communicate directly with the soul in the insect's body at this moment—after all, he also existed in this world in the form of a consciousness at the moment, and this kind of contact directly constructed on the spiritual plane was easier for him.
It's a pity that he doesn't want to pay attention to this old-timer who has lived for an unknown number of years - the experience of short contact with him in the past has already left him with the impression that the other party is cunning and cunning, and at the same time, he is not interested in the "crooked and evil way" of the Jian Tong family in modern times from puppetry to insect manipulation, so at this moment he just wants to solve him as soon as possible, and then hurry up and go to the library to search for it!
"Hey, you seem to have a lot to say to me, but I'm in a hurry, I'm sorry, please put this bento away-"
Bai Ze showed his usual shy and slightly tangled smile at the various words of pleading and temptation that were constantly passed on in his hand, and even a few powerful magic structures that had been cut off from the core spells.
Then the thunder that quietly bloomed at his fingertips shattered and burned the soul hidden in the engraved worm, along with the mental messages that tried to invade his spirit, and the slightly noisy environment suddenly returned to the quiet and peace that the boy was accustomed to.
"In this way, the cheaters on the side of the Maki family should have been swept out, and the only thing left is the pair of the Tosaka family, right? Although it was only a few glances from a distance, the impression left was too shallow, and there was no way to locate the location of the red-clothed and white-haired heroic spirit, but it was also enough to vaguely sense its existence - in this way, he should have been taken to the inner world, so there was no need to rush to take this opportunity to block him. ”
After closing his eyes and meditating for a long time, after the radiation of the perception was fruitless, Bai Ze relaxed his mind and found that he didn't need to kill the Tosaka family like a rush, and now that there was no target around, he could spend more time looking for valuable magic books here - there was no forerunner like Senior Sister Lilia and Ye Kexin, who counted and sorted out all the valuable books in the library in advance, so that he could directly read and study.
"Fortunately, I have spent a lot of time here in the past, and I still have some understanding of the classification of books here, so in this case, the classical spells used as archives should be on this side of the bookshelf, the magic circuit construction research should be near here, and the insect manipulation part should be located here......"
Although the scenery he saw with his eyes now was very different from what he remembered in the past, the general layout had not changed, so after spending some time, he was able to identify the layout of the stacks, and then found the direction and order of the subsequent selection.
- After his previous experience in the underground library, he has actually mastered some methods to help him identify spell books that are "valuable" to him, such as books with burning magic that can be used to perform will emit a strong magical aura and will appear different colors depending on the school of belonging, and books with a large amount of magical knowledge will emit a strong spiritual light, and will also show different colors depending on the content inside, Ordinary books that only write about human geography are relatively dull, and the more esoteric the spells burned or recorded, the higher the intensity of the aura.
With this simple and easy method, he saved a lot of time and effort when selecting the books he needed from this library of tens of thousands of books.
He also found that the number and quality of the books in the library of the Jian Tong family were much higher than that of the Einzberen family, perhaps this was also the balance made by the "organizers" for the three families.
——Compared to the Tosaka family, which has a powerful battle spell no less than that of a servant, and the Ainz Belen family, which has a huge amount of magic power and auxiliary spells that can greatly enhance the ability to make magic, the Makiri family, which can basically be called without any strengths, will naturally make compensation corresponding to the cost of the contestants who choose the Makiri family at a price that is no less than the other two.
And Bai Ze believes that the advantage of the Maki family is that it gathers the huge collection of books accumulated by the Marich clan in the spell for 500 years - this is unmatched by the Tosaka family, which is only a hundred years old, and the 1,000-year-old Einzberen clan will not put really valuable books in a fortress used for battle purposes - this unpopular but extremely valuable library is the greatest treasure of the Maki clan that has been unnoticed and opened despite several rituals!
