Section E: Chapter 57: Accident (Lucina)
"Why is he still in control?!" this was completely unexpected by York, and he quickly raised his shield to the Frost Knight's side, ready to do it at any moment.
"This ...... I don't know!" Holding the frost spirit, Lucina was also surprised: "It shouldn't be......"
But in terms of appearance, the only difference between Jenas and last time was that the shadow aura rising above him was much weaker, and the eyes exposed under the helmet looked the same as he normally did - only in appearance.
The eyes are the windows to the soul, and the window of Jenas has become full of malice and threat because it is controlled.
Lucina, who hurriedly glanced back at the black ball to make sure it was still frozen, immediately gritted her teeth and released a fixed freeze in the icy light, wanting to freeze Jenas as well, and then slowly research a solution.
However, as soon as a circle of blue magic spells flashed from the feet of the captain of the guard, Jenas reacted quickly, and took a quick step forward to dodge the frozen aura of the moment the circle was generated. At the same time, he pulled out the long sword at his waist and slashed at the Frost Knight in front of him.
"Damn, why couldn't this guy move when he was possessed before?!" Although he expected the battle to be inevitable, the actual attack still made the Frost Knight a little incredulous.
"It must have been because a part of the Shadow Orb was left in him. Because the body is frozen, it's time to control your host!" Lucina exclaimed in frustration, already guessing the matter: "Don't kill him!
It would have been a simple battle.
Despite being the most elite warrior in the North Sea, Jenas was now surrounded by so many people that he couldn't withstand a few rounds of flanking - and York decided that thirty seconds would solve the problem at most.
However, a rather headache-inducing accident happened.
The door that had been closed and reinforced by Lucina's ice freeze was instantly dispelled from the ice created by magic and automatically unlocked. A drunken old man, holding a staff in one hand and arranging his collar in the other, hurried down the steps and appeared in front of everyone.
It's Leo. It seems that the guards who were sent out have finally found him.
"Uh...... Sorry I'm late. Do you still need me here?" he looked at everyone in embarrassment, and found that Lucina was looking at him in astonishment, so he subconsciously touched his beard, and looked in a hurry: "Is the dirt and mashed potatoes sticking to it? No, I remember that I used the cleaning technique—uh, what is this?"
Seeing Janas's figure disappear in an instant, a wave of panic came out of Lucina's heart. She hurriedly warns Leo to watch out for his back, but it's too late.
Janus shifted behind Leo in the shadows. A small shadow lurking within him immediately abandoned the host and burrowed into the body of the librarian. At this moment, Janus stumbled down the steps due to the loss of balance, covered his head and gasped for air, and regained his senses in the exclamation that he had not yet reacted...... But Leo, it's the complete opposite.
Because it wasn't the entire Shadow Ball that burrowed into the body this time, it didn't trigger rejection. As soon as the old man, who hadn't figured out the situation yet, turned around, his body trembled strongly, and he was inexplicably controlled. In the next moment, he staggered in place, suddenly flicked the mage cloak that rose out with a faint shadow, and turned around and shot a large ball of fire towards the frozen shadow ball, trying to free his own body.
"This dead old man is going to be bad! This is good!" Seeing that the success was falling short, Lucina was so annoyed that she gave the command to magic, allowing Nathatia to release a wall of water more than two meters high to intercept the flames, while she flashed towards Leo with York in the hazy steam of the evaporating water of the flames. At the same time, he didn't forget to give Tia an order to release a protective barrier around the frozen Shadow Ball in case someone approached and had an accident
Flash, one of the most important secondary spells for mages and demon warriors. Flashing is flashing with the person you designate next to you. Many mages are addicted to the sensation of flashing and the powerful sense of security it brings. After all, if there is no Demon Mark Reaction, then it will be difficult for ordinary people to hit a mage who flashes away in front of your eyes at every turn.
The duration of the active stigma reaction of this spell (the amount of time it takes for a spell to be unable to cast the same spell again for a period of time.) Some spells share a sparkling reaction), depending on the mage's personal nature of the flash magic itself and the space-time magic...... and the distance that flashes.
This means that if you only flash at short distances, you can use him more often to adjust your position.
Because it is so important that it has become one of the hallmarks of magic - it has been fully developed by countless mages, has many variants, and has been widely incorporated into many composite magics. Each mage has their own unique style of using flashing, and Lucina is no exception.
And the auxiliary magic of the flash technique is naturally diverse.
For example, after use, it can ignore the reaction of short-range flash scars: flash overdrive.
That's a trick that many demon warriors are proud of.
After all, the ability to dodge multiple attacks and attack in any direction of the enemy at will can turn the tide of battle, even if it only lasts for a short time.
But it's not the same as a Phantom Raid after all. Because it doesn't have to be used to attack the enemy.
Because the opponent was replaced by Leo, the situation suddenly became even more complicated. Jenus was just an ordinary man after all, but what about Leo? he was a powerful archmage. If you want to defeat him without accidentally killing him, the spells that can be used are limited to a considerable extent.
Almost the same as using non-lethal spells on him alone.
And all the magic in the opponent's possession can be poured on this Aya under the control of the Shadow Ball, with the aim of killing her.
In addition, there is another cause for concern - the fragments of the Shadow Ball are now unexpectedly difficult to deal with. Except for Aya, who is immune to her possession because of her magic resistance, everyone else is in danger.
However, the Shadow Ball was certainly not stupid enough to choose a host weaker than Leo. What I'm more afraid of now is that when I go out to fight, there will be stronger people like Charlotte and Alice joining the battlefield, and then being possessed by defenseless after controlling Leo.
The same goes for the water spirits Tia, Guladan and other envoys.
The only thing I don't worry about...... It's the Iron Knight York.
This soul that dwells on armor is immune to all foreign controllers.
