Gid Sheen straightened up from his seat, squinted slowly, stroked his chin, and stared at her with a slightly playful gaze. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

"Kratos." "It's funny," he said, word for word, a little man who should have been obscure, but I heard his name more than once. Perhaps, this is a joke of fate. ”

"So, you know where he is?"

"Unfortunately, I don't know." The man chuckled, "But, the man next to you knows, doesn't he." If my sources are correct, it is he who killed Kratos Miltyn. ”

"No, I didn't—" Fael jerked to his feet, his expression terrified.

"You did it." Gid Sheen's voice was suddenly full of demagogy, "Have you forgotten? You send him home drunk, watch him fall asleep, take out a syringe, plunge it into his bony arm, and slowly push the colorless, tasteless and deadly poison into the veins. Then you stay by his side and watch him ...... without pain Fall into eternal sleep in your sleep. ”

"No, it can't be! That, that's just a dream of mine! Fael waved his arms vigorously to drive something away, "When I woke up, it was in my bed at home, and I was the only one around—"

The girl's mind raced. The power of the Lord of Heaven can dissolve toxins, but she is not good at identifying them, and her previous examination does not say anything. Maybe Gide is telling the truth, maybe there's something else going on in that, but that's not the point. By now, anyone can see that things have taken a direction that is difficult to control.

Yuffie quickly stood up, and Elena leaned against her, also on guard. She stared at Gid and quickly asked, "What are you doing here?" ”

The young man sighed, "Miss Yuffie Stanmez, I remember telling you that this man named Fael is not worthy of your trust. ”

She wanted to continue asking, but was stopped by a fierce warning in her heart. She turned her face sideways to see Fael slamming towards her. The muscles of his arms bulged, and the huge fist was swinging with all its might at the bridge of her nose—

The fist was pushed to the side at the last moment, but the man's body crashed into her with unabated momentum. The massive impact knocked Yuffie into the air, knocking over a chair in the corner, and slamming it over there. She endured the sharp pain in her back to support her body, and saw that Elena had already met Fael, and the two were scuffling, and neither of them could have the upper hand for the time being.

Yuffie tried to move her body, but the sensation from the waist down was still there, meaning that her spine was not damaged. She looked up and stared calmly at the young man with a cold smile on his face as he walked slowly towards her.

"That's not the way to treat regular customers." She said lightly, silently reciting a protective spell in her heart, "And Gide, do you want to watch your house be demolished?" ”

"Don't care." The young man sneered, "I won't be living here anytime soon." Also, it's best not to expect anyone to disturb you, for the inhabitants of this neighborhood are already one with me—I suppose you, so clever, know what I mean. ”

Of course she understood. Gid brought the people of the neighborhood into the psychic network as well, monitoring and controlling their every move, just like the Raven Knights and Fael. To make matters worse, the condition of the Guild receptionist shows that Gid can control those who have taken the drug through words and even mental cues. The residents of the surrounding area, who seemed normal when they arrived, are likely to have fallen into a deep dream by now...... Or worse.

Yuffie looked out the window, and his bad premonition was confirmed. A dense crowd surrounded the outside of the house, standing motionless, like a group of clay wood sculptures. She knew that with a mental command, these citizens would turn into mad beasts, desperately pounced on any 'enemy' in front of them.

Naturally, their combat prowess could not be expected, but not everyone could harden their hearts and swing their blades at a group of unarmed ordinary citizens - and even if they could, it was not the result she wanted.

There is only one conclusion that can be drawn: defeat the man in front of him as soon as possible and force him to free all the souls he has imprisoned.

Magic enveloped her silently, obscuring everything about her form, voice, and smell for a moment. She struggled to stand up, careful not to touch anything, and pointed her fingertips at the center of the young man's eyebrows—

"It's a shame, it seems that you are even more stupid than I thought." Gid said contemptuously. He turned in her direction, as if the girl's invisibility was completely ineffective, "I thought you should know...... I've always been impressed by the 'visitors' who used to come uninvited. ”

A sudden mental shock pierced her brain, containing illogical and meaningless babbling, swearing, and cries from countless souls. It shattered the incantation she was chanting silently, shattering even the invisibility spell that was in effect. Yuffie clutched her head and staggered back to the wall, trying her best to stay awake.

"You...... Not a wizard. She affirmed, "You're a warlock." But to be able to tap directly into the soul power of those people - what the hell have you become, Gid? ”

Warlocks, or some of them call themselves the "Chosen One", are people who are born with the ability to sense and use magic. Warlocks come from a variety of sources, some are the offspring of humans and other magical creatures, such as dragons, some are the product of magical experiments, and finally some are purely accidental.

Unlike wizards who learn the basics of arcane art and try to grasp the truth, they focus on improving their unique talents, preferring practical application over theory. Many warlocks will even further modify their bodies to increase the strength of their innate powers.

Obviously, Gide's talent has to do with the soul. But this kind of simple but rough spiritual impact is impossible for even a mid-level wizard who is good at spiritual secret arts to achieve easily.

"Who knows." The young man said noncommittally, "I just know that your secret skills are not worth mentioning in my eyes. ”

The current situation is quite unfavorable for her, and it is not a good idea to continue to fight hard, and Yuffie quickly makes a judgment. Psychic Shock requires little to no spells or gestures, meaning that most of her powerful arcane spells are impossible to cast in one-on-one situations. Moreover, with the souls of hundreds of people as backup, if you want to compete with Gid for endurance, I am afraid that it is also a fantasy.

Elena is still at war with Fael. The traveling nun was shrouded in a faint golden holy light, and the "Lord of Light" gave her far more physical strength than ordinary people, but the man's attack method seemed to be desperate for her life, so she was helpless in a short time. The two of them used every piece of furniture they had at their disposal as weapons, shields, and even throwing weapons—a ceramic teacup whizzed past Yuffe's ear and slammed into pieces on the wall behind her.

There had to be a way to distract him, and it only took a split second. No sooner had she had come up with the idea than she heard the door of the house pop open, accompanied by the familiar voice of a friend.

"Really, I told you to stay safe!"

Lynn spread her golden wings and slammed into the wall, slamming into Gid like a bird of prey. The young man had no choice but to take his attention off Yuffie and retreat to the side of the house. He narrowed his eyes and cast a mental shock on Lin as well, but it only made the blonde girl frown, and the effect was obviously not as good as expected - the dragons were so resistant to mental attacks that they were one of the few on the entire continent.

Another figure with a sword flashed into the room, joining Elena and Fael in the battle. Her steps were like a magnificent dance, and each sword stabbed out of a blind corner that the man could not care about, and Fael was immediately overwhelmed.

That's Annaville of "Wind Dance", Lynn's biological mother. Yuffie had known for a long time that she was a good swordsman, but he had never expected her to join the battle herself.

"Stop, Gid." Anne Vale forced Fael back with a sword, took the opportunity to leave the warband for a while, and shouted at Gid, "The Sheriff's guards have arrived, and you have lifted your control over those people, this is your only chance to gain forgiveness." ”
