"It's easier than you think, isn't it?" Marcos pulled the knife back behind his back and stared at the figurine that had been torn apart. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 info The strange thing is that even with this appearance, Marcos still hasn't been able to discover the source of the magic hidden in their bodies.

Maffeo leaned over to him and whispered and earnestly, "You and I should know why. ”

"What's wrong?" Marcos wondered.

"If it weren't for the strength of those guys, we wouldn't have had it so easy. Also, I don't think you should have forgotten that we are dealing with a whole army. The expression on Maffeo's face was always serious, as if it was the result of the crazy actions of the magic puppet he had just seen.

Marcos narrowed his eyes slightly, as if he understood what Maffeo was trying to say, and said, "I know, so we have to keep going." ”

"Is everything alright?" Karl walked over unconsciously as the two spoke.

"Uh, very good. Marcos hurriedly replied to Karl.

Carl lit a cigarette and tried to relax himself. In this palace that has never been set foot in, perhaps being anxious is the least deserved. "So, tell me you confirmed something. ”

Maffeo pointed to the torn and broken puppets, "You should have seen it, these guys are crazy." ”

"Even if you don't confirm it, I think we know it in our hearts. Karl said in a deep voice.

"That's right. ”

"All right, gentlemen. We shouldn't have whispered again, should we?" said Marcos, teasing.

"So, can you explain to me what this disgusting, viscous liquid is, my honorable Lord Marcos. Maffeo raised his greatsword and placed it in front of Marcos's eyes.

Marcos laughed out loud, "I like the title, it's just a potion that concentrates the dark element, that is, the product of alchemy. Otherwise, how do you think I could easily use the Demon Slash to kill those magic puppets!?"

"Why did you think of using this thing?" Maffeo put away his greatsword, then picked up the empty potion bottle on the ground and held it in his hand.

"They're magic dolls, aren't they? magic-powered weapons, so there's no better way to deal with them with them. ”

"Well, it looks like there may be a magical genius among us. Maffeo winked at Karl.

Carl smiled and flicked his cigarette butt into the distance, then beckoned. "Come on, it's time for us to go. ”

Light and darkness always exist in each other, and people cannot always be in the light. This was even more true in this palace, where darkness once again fell upon the three of them after a short distance of walking a short distance. They didn't know what they were going to face next, and if all the magic puppets were there and some creatures that weren't yet clear, it might give them a little more peace of mind.

In the dark, it often takes total devotion to notice any possible danger. This took a lot of energy and physical strength on the part of the three of them, and their nerves were in a state of high tension all the time, which made them very uncomfortable. But this is the only way to the highest part of Sky City, and since you have already arrived here, giving up may be the most unwise option.

The sea is still some distance away, and the part of the palace outside of the sea looks no different from most of the floors along the way. The only difference is that there are more decorations that make you feel the smell of the sea.

The mechanical voice sounded again, and it clearly poured into the ears of the three men. They knew that the magic puppets had reappeared. They were like ghosts in the dark, waiting for the perfect opportunity to tear the trio apart.

So, in extreme darkness, Maffeo began to look for a possible chandelier switch. However, to his dismay, Carl had not found anything resembling a chandelier above the area so far. If that's the case, then it means that the trio will have to fight these dangerous puppets with very little visibility, which is the worst-case scenario.

Blindly firing a flame bomb that provides light only reveals where you are, though the animated puppets who can see through the darkness already know where the three of them are. But Carl remained vigilant, and his blind actions would only bring disaster to himself.

"Twenty meters from us. Carl whispered to Marcos that he could tell by the sound how close the puppets were to him. "On the left front, the number is probably less than ten. ”

"Wow, you're amazing. Marcos applauded.

"It's nothing, these are must-have abilities in war. Karl had already loaded his revolver and was waiting for the opportunity to shoot.

"Okay, then let me think about it. Marcos thought about how he could fight these guys in the dark without a chandelier.

Karl had already raised his left hand and aimed the revolver at the left front. The puppets were getting closer and closer to the three of them, and if they waited, they would only be surprised. If you want to turn it into a meat skewer, you might want to try staying where you are.

Marcos motioned for Carl not to shoot for the time being, and the latter, though confused, complied. Marcos then waved to the two and motioned for them to come with him. So, in confusion, the two followed Marcos and walked to the right with his light steps. Maybe Marcos was just trying to distance himself from the guys, but it didn't seem to make sense to do so if they could see everything.

After moving a few meters to the right, the two of them realized that there was a row of pillars of light that could provide cover. Although it is said to be a pillar of light, the crystal ball at the top does not emit any light, as if it is in line with the environment here.

The three of them hid behind the row of pillars of light, and if possible, it could at least temporarily slow down the puppets. Because when there are no targets, they will mechanically search the surrounding area. But given their mobility, the three of them had a short period of time to discuss countermeasures.

"God, do you have owl eyes?" said Maffeo in a whisper.

"Hey, don't forget about the things that exist on most of the levels here. Marcos laughed.

"What?" Maffeo didn't understand what Marcos meant.

"The arrangement here gives us some references, just like this row of stone columns, which are present in large numbers in this tower." ”

This time he finally understood, so he quickly nodded. "Yes, that's good. So, what do we do?"

"Karl, can you be sure where they are now, and if they are scattered?" asked Karcos.

After pricking up his ears to listen to the movement in the area, Karl got the answer Marcos wanted, and he replied in a low voice, "They are divided into three groups, and there are probably no more than four groups in each group. Two of the groups were close together, five meters behind us, but they had no intention of coming this way. The other group was about 10 meters away on our left-hand side. ”

"Thank you. ”

"No thanks. ”

"What's the plan?" asked Maffeo impatiently.

Marcos smiled slyly, "If you're confident, then each of us solves a set, is there a problem?"

"Well, I'm going to die sooner or later anyway, I'm going to die sooner or later. Maffeo kept muttering to himself, drew his broadsword, and chose the group of magic puppets ten meters away on his left hand as the target, he was ready to charge.

"Let's get on. "Marcos and Carl bumped fists into each other.
