Despite Peter's resistance, Jack dragged him to the Dust Avenue. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
The two of them, dressed in black night clothes and wearing masks against the wall, walked sneakily in the drowsy night.
"Is this going to work...... It's too dangerous......" Lowering his voice, Peter still chattering with concern, "It's a bit too risky for just the two of us to brave the enemy camp......"
"Of course the risk is high, do you know how I feel right now? The whole heart feels like someone is being pulled up, and the tension reminds me of what I felt before I did the first roller coaster......
"I'm sorry, what did you say?"
"I told you about roller coasters, well, you don't care what it is, adventure is like that anyway, you will be nervous before, but once you are in it, you will be extremely happy. ā
"Are you sure that's what a normal person thinks?"
"Normal, of course normal, you are just bound by the world, and when you abandon the eyes of the world, you will find that this is indeed the case. Jack beckoned to Peter and motioned for him to follow. Then, the two of them walked silently to the edge of the fence on the outermost part of the City Lord's Manor.
"Just flip in?" asked Peter.
"Hmm!" Jack nodded, and he looked out at the rustling forest in the darkness, and he didn't know how many demons and traps were hidden in the hazy light.
"Normally, this kind of base or something will have a perimeter guard, right?
"Of course we'll be discovered, but, I'll ask you a question, Peter, do you think we're not found now?" Jack smiled slightly, and pulled out a silencer pistol from the space ring, "This is exactly knowing that there are tigers in the mountains, and favoring the tiger mountains!"
Jack grabbed the top of the fence with a jump, but he was pulled back to the ground by Peter the next moment.
"Don't, calm down, you're obviously sending you to death! Otherwise, let's discuss, I won't go, okay?"
"What do you say?" Jack winked innocently and shook the gun in his hand at Peter, "I think, as comrades, shouldn't we fight side by side?"
"Uh...... Okay, so do you have any plans?"
"Plans? If I don't find a way to open the Reflection City here, I won't be able to sneak in before the demons, and I won't be able to bury the mechanism in it in advance, so how can I fool them? You see, all the plans depend on the present, on this level that can only be brute-forced...... Well, don't think too much, come on, follow me!
Jack helped Peter climb over the fence first, and then he climbed over himself, and of course Jack and Peter knew how bad their infiltration skills were, so they simply broke the jar and broke it, and walked straight into the dark grove without concealment.
"Do you know why I'm going to let us both wear this black tight?" said Jack as he walked away to dissipate the tension.
"No, I don't know. Peter clenched the stick in his hand and looked around nervously.
"It's very simple, just to make those demons not recognize who we are, so as to weaken their vigilance, do you think, if you are engaged in perimeter security, if you see a weak chicken who comes to provoke, will you immediately nervously inform the upper echelons?"
"No, I definitely want to do it on my own to show my ability. ā
"That's right, that's what we're trying to hide our identity. Do you know why I have to bring you?"
"Why?"
"Because I need your astrological spells, I need you to predict good fortune and evil, and even where the enemy is, how about it, Peter, now that you have predicted where the enemy's outer guards are hiding?"
"Uh...... No, I don't think astrological spells have an auto-seek feature. ā
"Of course not, after all, you're not Peter......" Jack said, stopping suddenly, he raised his left hand, pointed the muzzle of the gun firmly at Peter's forehead, smiled confidently, and said, "Don't move, you don't know what it is, but I'm sure he can easily gouge through your head." ā
"What? What the hell are you crazy about? Jack, I'm Peter!! "Peter pointed at himself, his face full of disbelief, he waved his hands, trying to keep his voice down, but still shouted with a hideous face, "Why the hell do you think I'm not me?"
"Your expression is very convincing, I almost believed it......" Jack raised an eyebrow and said, "I didn't say you weren't you, I was just doubting you, Peter, I've been thinking about this for a long time, you said someone told you to work with your boss to restrain me, right?"
"yes...... Is there anything wrong with that?" Peter spread his hands innocently.
"The problem is not that you restrict me, but why no one restricts you, in the previous incident, my reasoning may have made other demon believers hidden in the human race think that I am a trouble, so they will trouble me, but, they did not find your stupidity, as a famous detective in Aster City, your intelligence is admirable, when it comes to blocking the demons, you also have a part, someone came to assassinate me, why didn't anyone assassinate you?"
"No, how can your mind be so dark, and you don't want others to be good? How can there be so many conspiracy theories in this world...... And, tsk, no one assassinated me, no one assassinated me, how do I know why!"
"Yes, even if what you say is reasonable, but you still have a flaw, you don't seem to know anything about [Destiny Radiance], you were stunned for 0.3 seconds when I mentioned this word, and at the same time, I recorded your stunned expression, of course, you may say that I was wrong, but when I was just asking you to use the astrological spell, I clearly saw that you didn't react at all, Peter's eyes will glow blue when he uses the astrological spell! If you want to convince me, please use the magic again. ā
"Use it, who is afraid of whom~"
āćsćā
Peter opened his mouth to whisper a rune from the Astrological School, and then, as the magic flowed, his eyes faintly glowed with blue light.
Seeing this scene, Jack couldn't help but laugh out loud, he lowered his head suddenly, and when he raised his head again, he was already expressionless.
"For the sake of you deliberately memorizing the runes of the astrology school, I will give your performance a score of five, but unfortunately, because of your lack of common sense, you can't get the remaining five points. ā
"Hey, what's wrong? My eyes are shining, and you can't believe me yet. ā
"It's not that I don't want to believe you, but have you ever read Introduction to Magic? The mages of the Astrology School have golden light in their eyes when they cast spells, golden light, stupid!" Jack looked around, and at this time, in the shadows of the forest, the shadow of the demon's outer guard had already appeared, "When I knew from Lucy that there was [Ancient Demon Transfiguration (Four Rings)] I've been wary of you since this kind ......of thing, and then I learned that there are two people who can do this spell, so I have to be even more cautious, who knows if anyone will get around me?
"Why did you suddenly doubt me? I thought I didn't have any flaws when we met in the afternoon...... Even Peter's mantra I learned very well, didn't I?"
"Yes, yes, so do I...... Oh, of course, I can't tell you, but now you understand your true role, there are only two users of the [Ancient Demon Transfiguration Technique], and they are also a precious resource for demons, so!" Jack looked up and shouted at the demons around him, "If you don't want to let your remaining Thousand Faces die, just get out of the way and let me go to see your boss." ā
"Hahahaha, hahahahaha!" Fake Peter suddenly burst out into a low laugh.
"What are you laughing at?" Jack asked, raising an eyebrow.
"I thought you were smart, Jack, but you're more stupid than I thought, do you really think the devil would make the same mistake? Do you really think your little iron pipe can threaten me?" Fake Peter put his finger in front of the muzzle.
"Why can't it threaten you? anyone who is a professional under the four rings will be pierced by it......" Jack said as he pulled the trigger, and then he found the chamber exploded, "Hey, no!"
The exploding barrel wounded his hand, causing him to gasp in pain.
"Shhh...... This, I really didn't expect that......"
"I didn't expect that, if I wasn't strong enough, how would I dare to ask you to come and find you? Hey, you know what? I'm not that Lucy idiot! Goodbye, Jack!"
Looking at the fist beckoning to his face, the corners of Jack's mouth suddenly curled slightly.
Stupid, I expected it~
Goodbye!!
