Chapter 272: If the effort is useful, what else do you need a genius to do?

"Who?!" Nicole quickly looked in the direction from which the voice came, and at the same time quickly touched her arms with her right hand, and touched the pen-shaped witchcraft artifact.

But before he turned his head, he felt a chill in his neck, and then a close-range voice came from behind him, "Don't move, your head will fall off if you move." ”

Nicole's body stiffened, and she subconsciously wanted to buckle the utensils in her hand to the ground, and the next second she felt a viscous touch on her neck, and a stream of blood rolled down her neck along the gravity.

Only then did Claire slowly walk out from behind Nicole, put her hand into her arms, and whispered, "I said, don't move." Or if you think the speed of teleportation is comparable to my movements, you can try. ”

Claire said as she reached out and touched the pen holder witchcraft artifact along Nicole's right hand, and pulled it a little harder to snatch the "pen holder" into her own hand.

After getting the "pen holder", Claire took back the dagger against Nicole's neck, and without the "pen holder", Nicole was simply a toy he held at will.

The moment she retracted the dagger, Nicole seized the opportunity to resist, but just as she had the intention to make a move, before her hand was halfway out, Claire grabbed her wrist with her backhand, and with a slight twist of her skill, Nicole was pressed to the ground, and her delicate face was piled directly on the stone bricks.

"Hmm! Let me go! ”

Claire didn't pay attention to the other party, but picked up the pen holder in his hand and looked at it carefully, it looked like a pen holder when he looked at it from a distance before, but when he looked at it closely, he could get more information, this is a bone artifact, it seems to be a bone of some kind of giant beast, it has been polished into the shape of a pen holder, and the ability to affect the spatial structure is attached to the bone.

"Whew!" Claire blew inside, then placed the bone cylinder in her spatial ring.

Nicole was pinned to the ground and asked, "How did you find me?" ”

Claire, who had finished appreciating the back bones, finally had time to reply to her this time, and looked at Nicole with an idiot expression and said, "Didn't I tell you before, your group is organized and has a clear goal, and your purpose from the beginning is very clear, which is to come to this building." Think about it with a little brain, and you'll know that what you want is here. If I don't come here to squat you, where will I squat you? ”

Nicole: "......" makes sense, and I can't argue with it at all.

But Nicole doesn't think it's because she's stupid, you don't think of it when you look at other wizards, if you want to blame this kid for being too smart......

Continuing to press Nicole to the ground, Claire took out a sorcery chain from the spatial ring, which was taken from Martin's corpse to suppress the energy in the bound wizard's body, making it impossible to use sorcery.

After tying up Nico's sorcery chains, Claire picked up the heavy ancient book that had fallen on the ground, and after patting the dust on it a little, Claire flipped through it.

Looking at the book and walking towards Nicole, he stared at the contents of the book and asked, "What is this?" ”

Nicole pursed her lips and turned her head to the side, looking generous and righteous: Even if you kill me, I will never tell you!

Seeing that the other party didn't make a sound, Claire slightly raised her eyelids and looked over, and said with a flat face: "Are you sure you don't say yes?" ”

Hearing Claire's bland words, Nicole's body seemed to have an electric current passing through, and the scene where Claire killed the fat wizard before sounded, and she unconsciously gritted her teeth, and her heart trembled.

After a while, he muttered, "I didn't say I wouldn't say it......"

Claire's expression became friendly again, and she sat down next to Nicole, spread the ancient book in front of her, and asked softly, "What is recorded here?" ”

Nicole said hesitantly: "I recorded the way to open this door, but I tried it and there seemed to be some problems, and I couldn't open it at all......"

Listening to Nicole's words, Claire nodded, her fingers twitching over the page that Nicole had opened earlier, and occasionally glanced up at the mural on the stone wall.

Claire nodded while looking at it, it was quite simple, just like cryptography, to see the special information content marked on the mural, and then refer to the corresponding characters on the book, and then after a certain calculation, you can get the key to open the door.

Seeing that Claire actually studied the book, Nicole's eyes showed a trace of disdain, she had studied this thing for more than half a year before she had a little confidence, and now I will show you that you can see a ghost!

Although Nicole disdains it in her heart, she is only in her heart, she is still in a weak position, and she is afraid of being beaten when she says this.

Then Claire seemed to be fully immersed in the ancient book, her expression became more and more serious, and she looked up at the murals on the stone wall more and more often.

Nicole still kept her disdain in her heart: just look, you can see a flower.

The thought should have flashed, and Claire closed the ancient book in her hand with a deep sound.

The corners of Nicole's mouth turned up slightly, hum, I'll just say, how can you understand, it's a bit wise to give up now.

Nicole's thought just flashed, and the next second, her jaw was about to dislocate, and that kid actually condensed the symbol to unlock the portal?!

You must know that she had practiced for ten days and half a month in order to refine this unique energy operation method and make the energy gathering become a symbol, how could this guy master the technique so quickly?!

"It's okay, it's okay, he's just mastered the art of condensing symbols, right, that's another story." Nicole comforted herself in her heart, didn't she also condense herself? But the difficulty of unlocking the portal is not here at all, but calculating the correct key to open the portal, and it is on this that she made a mistake, otherwise the portal would have been opened a long time ago.

Slowly but surely, Claire wrote out all the symbols she had deduced in mid-air, and then the symbols that had gathered energy disappeared into the stone wall in front of her.

In this process, Nicole's mental journey is like a roller coaster, on the one hand, she wants to see this portal opened, and on the other hand, she does not want Claire to open this portal.

Finally, after five or six seconds, the stone wall still didn't change at all, and the boulder in Nicole's heart finally fell to the ground.

After taking it easy, Nicole said with a slight smugness: "It seems that you are no different from me." ”

Claire glanced at Nicole suspiciously, he hadn't experienced Nicole's complicated mental journey just now, but he still spoke: "The difference is big, let the bullets fly for a while." ”

At the moment when Claire's words fell, the stone wall in front of him began to change, from the physical entity to the illusory, and after a few seconds of change, it finally became like a water mirror, and there were waves on it from time to time.

"Huh?" Nicole was stupid, and her open mouth couldn't close, this and that...... How is this possible!

"This can't be, this is absolutely impossible!" Nicole lost her mind and said, "I haven't been able to unravel it after practicing for more than half a year, and you just watched it for a few minutes, how can you solve it!" ”

Claire has hit her too hard, Nicole is now a little beginning to doubt life, who has never praised her talent since she was a child, how could she be defeated by others in witchcraft, and in a crushing posture.

"How could it be?" Claire glanced condescendingly at the distracted Nicole, "What do you need to be a genius if your efforts are useful?" ”

"Genius?" Nicole looked up and repeated.

Claire smiled slightly, "What?" Don't I look like it? ”
