Chapter 50: The Dark Magic Array

"It's not there yet!" complained Stannis, who was already on the verge of falling asleep.

Evelyn glanced back at him, and now it seemed as if she had become a guide.

They had crossed the river and wandered in the Black Forest on the east bank for half a day, not to mention the Dark Wizards, not even a single human shadow had been seen.

The white-haired girl relied on her childhood memories to find her way through this dense forest, with a burden that only knew how to complain.

Because it was so boring, Stannis actually took the initiative to talk, "Evelyn, can I call you Evelyn?"

Evelyn glanced at him, not knowing how he wanted to hurt herself.

"I think there must have been some misunderstanding between us. Stannis found himself the only one who couldn't figure out the situation.

The girl didn't answer him, she sensed something unusual around her.

"We were very good friends when we were kids, and it's a precious friendship, so I don't want our relationship to be the way it is. "Stannis, like him in reality, really doesn't talk to girls.

"Friendship?" Evelyn's terrifying eyes reappeared.

Stannis was frightened by this look, he knew that he had said the wrong thing, "Of course, the affection between us seems to be a little bit more than friendship, but I didn't expect to cut your wrist twice for me, isn't it a bit too much, the flower of life is so beautiful, how can you despise your life so much?"

"My life is mine, and what I want to do has nothing to do with you. ”

He was choked by this sentence and had nothing to say, and it seemed that he was still not suitable for making chicken soup for the soul.

But he is still unwilling, how to figure out where he and this woman have happened without revealing his true identity?

So he began to beat around the bush and tentatively, "I know I'm sorry for you, but I already have a fiancée. ”

At this time, he took out Anister as a shield.

But it seems to be counterproductive, "You don't seem to be less sorry for her than I am." ”

"I'm ......" Stannis was about to say something more, but was interrupted directly by Evelyn.

"Shut up. ”

Stannis hurriedly covered his mouth.

The girl rolled over and dismounted, and as if she had noticed something, she tied her horse and began to lean over through the bushes.

The lord also tiptoed after her.

"What's wrong?" he couldn't help but ask.

Evelyn straightened up, two Hidden Blades popping out of her long black sleeves.

"The smell of black magic. With that, she strode forward.

Although he couldn't understand what she was saying, Stannis followed with the sword he strapped to his belt, not to protect her, but to remember the most important principle of going out on an expedition: never to die in parting ways.

They arrived at a large clearing, where the trees were gone, as if they had been uprooted.

"This ...... What's going on?" Stannis looked at the scene in front of him, speechless in surprise.

Evelyn crouched down and picked up a piece of crushed soil, mixed with sawdust and green burnt shavings, and she sniffed again, the smell of death.

"It's supposed to be the Requir, that black mage looks like he's practiced magic here, and those trees must have been turned into powder by the Requirition Charm. She clapped her hands and stood up, judging by the situation here, the black mage should have been gone for a long time.

"So powerful?" Stannis felt that this magic was like an antimatter weapon, and it was indeed a fantasy world where black technology was rampant.

"You, what else is left behind by the mage?" Evelyn said in a commanding tone.

Stannis had no choice but to do so, but he was not reconciled.

"Looking for what the mage left behind......," he said, pinching his throat to mimic the tone of the girl's voice, rummaging through the ruins with resentment.

Suddenly, his eyes lit up, because under an inconspicuous tree stump, he found a small black cloth bag.

"Hey, I've found something!" he shouted to Evelyn in the distance.

The woman responded, but the sharp-eyed man noticed in advance that there was a golden glittering light reflected from the mouth of the cloth bag.

Stannis was overjoyed, and he quickly reached out and grabbed the cloth bag.

"Don't touch it. Evelyn was horrified and tried to stop him.

But it was still too late, and Stannis had already grabbed the cloth bag in his hand and returned it, and there was a crisp sound of coins colliding with each other.

"What's the matter," he looked puzzled, "how can there be a reason in the world not to pick up money?"

Before he could finish his sentence, a large black shadow slowly rose from all around them and formed the shape of a wok to cover them.

"It's!" even idiots like Stannis know what's going on.

A drop of sweat slid down Evelyn's face, "Damn, it's the Dark Magic Array—Death Choice." ”

Stannis said he didn't understand at all.

"Hahahaha, I didn't expect you to be fooled so easily!"

After a standard villain line, a tall, lanky black-robed man walked out.

You don't have to think about it to know that he's the black mage.

"Little Evelyn, I didn't expect us to meet again. The man said smugly.

Evelyn didn't answer, she seemed to be looking for a way to crack the magic circle.

"You know?" Stannis asked curiously, thinking that Evelyn had just been chasing this guy and had never met.

"Of course, she's been chasing us here ever since we stole a scroll of blood magic in the King's Hall. The black mage shook his head in annoyance, looking like he was also in a quandary.

Forehead...... These sisters are really patient.

"In the end, we couldn't stand being chased by Evelyn, so we wanted to sit back and wait for the death, and after setting up the dark magic trap and creating the illusion that this place was long gone, we put all the money on our bodies and threw it on the ground as a trap to induce, I didn't expect the crow to be so greedy for wealth, hahahaha!" The black mage laughed triumphantly.

"Actually, I picked up the money bag...... Stannis admitted, embarrassed as he held up the black bag.

The black mage choked on his own laughter, "Ahem, ahem...... Who are you?"

"I am the lord of this generation, please advise. Stannis rubbed his head.

The two clown-like performances didn't affect Evelyn on the side, and she seemed to be thinking about how to get out of the magic circle.

"It's useless. The black mage shook his head confidently, "You know the power of this magic array, once triggered, even the most powerful mage will have to accept the choice of death. ”

The choice of death? What does that mean. A curious Stannis was about to ask a question, but was interrupted by Evelyn.

"Then let's try. She said softly, her voice like the ice of deep winter, "Try how many chances the negative person has to live." ”

With that, she turned her gaze to the man beside her.
