Chapter 31 Light and Darkness Ye Zhiqiu
Ye Zhiqiu opened his eyes and took off the white towel covering his head, the floor was stained with his own blood, and when he wanted to raise his head, those slimy things firmly stuck his face to the floor, making it difficult for him to separate his head from the floor.
Not only his face, but also his clothes were covered in blood, but he didn't rush to deal with it for the time being, because he still had the metal collar that Sneve had put on his neck, which meant that he would have to die again.
Time was pressing, he didn't hesitate, and directly let the magic power in his whole body boil, not feeling much pain, just sensing that something seemed to be cutting his neck. Then, in his sight, his body with no head appeared.
About an hour later, Ye Zhiqiu came to his senses again, the collar that Sneve used to limit his magic power had fallen to the ground, and there was nothing to limit his ability anymore. Not dying is one of Ye Zhiqiu's biggest hole cards, and this hole card is obviously unknown to Sniff, so he will face him off in the roulette game.
Although Ye Zhiqiu is one of the most powerful prophets in the empire today, it is expected that he was not able to use that ability in the roulette game duel with Kneve that person has part of the power of the King of Crime and Punishment, so naturally there is a way to prevent him from peeking into the future.
So that game had to be played by him, and only in his hands did it not matter whether he won or lost that roulette duel. If you win, it is naturally best to leave Jiangcheng directly with the body of that madman. If he loses, he can also be given a chance to hide from the light to the dark.
On the way here, Ye Zhiqiu left marks on the four children, which were used to track their locations in an emergency, but he had no intention of activating those marks for the time being, although the information showed that Sneve had not received any magic training, but after all, he had the power of the King of Crime and Punishment, and Ye Zhiqiu could not guarantee that activating the mark would be able to hide from the other party.
Not using those marks didn't mean that Ye Zhiqiu couldn't find them, and the snow on the ground clearly recorded their whereabouts for him. It's just that the heavy lead clouds in the sky indicate that snowflakes may fall at any moment, and he has to speed up before his footprints are erased by the snowfall.
Looking at the footprints that stretched all the way to the city, Ye Zhiqiu bent down and squatted, took a handful of snow from the snow, and lightly recited two magic texts, and the handful of snow turned into water and put his face and clothes on it, taking away those blood stains.
He let go of his hand, and when the snow that had turned red fell to the ground, his hands had become strong wings, and the eagle flapped its wings and flew high into the air, and the sharp eagle eyes allowed him to see the footprints on the ground even in the clouds.
Following the footprints, Ye Zhiqiu flew towards Jiangcheng, when he entered the city limits, he felt a trace of strangeness, he was sure that he didn't have this feeling when he came, in order to find out the source of this feeling, Ye Zhiqiu flapped his wings and flew to a higher place, the higher he rose, the more obvious that strange feeling became.
Ye Zhiqiu kept climbing upward, and the buildings on the ground became smaller and smaller in his field of vision, until he broke out of the clouds and could no longer see the ground. At this height, the air became very thin, and his vision was wider, so that something was finally exposed to his eyes, which was a black gas as thin as hair, floating like catkins in the air thousands of meters above the ground.
No, they can't be described as catkins, because Ye Zhiqiu found that these faint black qi were running according to some kind of established trajectory. This is a magic array, covering the entire Jiangcheng, only a part of it can be seen at this height, based on this, Ye Zhiqiu can't analyze its effect, if you want to see its full picture, you have to rise to a higher height. However, the power of the eagle is limited, Ye Zhiqiu can't guarantee that he can fly so high, and in addition, if such a small black silk is too deep, there is no way to see it.
Since there was no way to clarify the role of this magic array, Ye Zhiqiu did not continue to dwell on it, and swooped towards the surface, while raising his vigilance against Sneve in his heart.
A street lit with fire caught his eye, and he swooped down and flew towards it, where he saw several intricate instruments on the rooftops, as well as some aborigines. Not all the citizens left Jiangcheng before the city lockdown, these should be those who did not.
He leaned over the ground and flew through the street where there were still a lot of Mars, he saw the wreckage of **, and the footprints of their group, Xinghe They encountered these citizens here and clashed, the situation in Jiangcheng was more interesting than expected.
Although Dan Huisheng and their magic power are limited, they are real demon spirits, and they still have the mark of Valhalla, and they will definitely not take the initiative to cause disputes when they have a mission, so it is very interesting to see what gave these citizens the courage to attack them, which is completely worthy of the death penalty.
The team escorting Sneve was divided into three parts here, and Ye Zhiqiu couldn't tell where Sneve was based on the footprints alone, but from the footprints, he could see where the galaxy was going, without any hesitation Ye Zhiqiu plunged into the snowdrift with a fierce son, and after a while, a white mouse crawled out from under the snow, in the city, in this season, the eagle is a little too conspicuous, and the common mice on the ruins are much better, and the white rat skin is not bad in the snow.
Before he could run far, goose-feather-like snowflakes fell in the sky, and before the footprints were completely covered, the white-skinned mouse followed all the way to a pawnshop, and on the wall next to the pawnshop, Ye Zhiqiu saw the mark of the secret party, which was planted by the secret party in Jiangcheng.
Ye Zhiqiu searched the memories in his mind, and remembered the personnel who were planted here by the secret party, Dominic, an 80-level student of Tiangong Academy, joined the secret party in 784, and was assigned to Jiangcheng after graduating from the academy in 787, responsible for handling some of the secret party's business in Jiangcheng, and by the way, pay attention to Walit, who lived in seclusion near Jiangcheng, but this duty ended after Walit died in Khiva Town two years ago.
Ye Zhiqiu remembered this person because he found Twilight's necklace, and it was with this news that Ye Zhiqiu finally found Lanyue's traces, judging from the footprints, Xinghe They had been here.
Without hesitation, Ye Zhiqiu climbed into the pawnshop, passed through the door that had been opened by the counter and entered the inner room, and on the sofa in the center of the inner room, a man with gold-rimmed glasses and a goatee was lying on it holding a wine bottle in his hand.
In front of him, Ye Zhiqiu re-transformed into a human form.
Facing the man who suddenly appeared in front of him, Dominic was startled, and jumped up from the sofa holding the wine bottle, "Who are you?"
Ye Zhiqiu bit his thumb, a few drops of blood got angry from the wound, and then exploded into a blood mist, and a maple leaf in the blood mist came to life.
After seeing the maple leaf, Dominic's expression was slightly awe-inspiring, and he took off his gold-wire glasses, and his temperament suddenly changed dramatically, like a sword suddenly out of his body, and that kind of obscene and greedy temperament was replaced by a sharp spirit and vicissitudes, and he respectfully saluted Ye Zhiqiu, "Patriarch." ”
Ye Zhiqiu nodded, "The situation is urgent, I don't talk too much nonsense, have a few children come to you?"
"Did the patriarch mean those children of the galaxy?" asked Dominic, "they did come, I saw your ornaments on their clothes, but I didn't expect you to deal with this matter yourself." ”
Ye Zhiqiu nodded, "What's the situation in their team?"
"There were six people in their team, in addition to their four children, there was a very cold female demon spirit and Snef, although they looked a little embarrassed, but no one was hurt, they said that they were going to take Sneve to the camp outside the city, and they were already on the road. Dominic replied, "I can lead the way if the patriarch wants to go." ”
Ye Zhiqiu shook his head, "No need, I'll handle this matter, you just need to tell me which direction they are going." ”
Hearing this, Dominic took down the map from the wall and spread it out in front of Ye Zhiqiu, "They should be walking along this road, Snake forcibly marked this road in the city, prohibiting everyone from entering, it seems that something was done on this road, I sneaked into one of them to look at it, and saw a newly built family, but only from this road can they not run into any mobs." ”
What exactly do you want to do, Sniff?
Ye Zhiqiu squinted at the route on the map, what is the special significance of this route, from the time he met Sneve to the present, he really acted like a madman, and all his actions were unreasonable.
The route marked on this map is roughly the same as the route marked with red lines in the hut before, seeing that there is nothing more to pay attention to, Ye Zhiqiu rolled up the map, "Dominic, when you were in the academy, you were excellent in alchemy for seven years, right?"
Dominic was stunned for a moment and nodded.
"The academy is being reformed and recruiting more teachers, are you interested?" Ye Zhiqiu put down the map that had been rolled up and raised his head to look at him.
Dominic scratched his head, "It's not proper, I've been losing those things for so many years, and it's really a bit unacceptable to use them to teach people." ”
Ye Zhiqiu shook his head, "You don't have to be arrogant, you can be excellent for seven consecutive years, and your ability is beyond doubt." You don't have to worry too much about things on Jiangcheng's side, the steam bullet train on the Moro people's side is about to open to traffic, coupled with the devastation of this incident, the strategic significance of the city is no longer there, and the family is ready to abandon Jiangcheng. ”
"I'm sorry, Patriarch, but this is ...... I have to think again. Dominic's face was confused and apologetic.
"It's okay, you still have more than half a year to think, think about it. After that, Ye Zhiqiu walked out of the pawnshop without waiting for Dominic's answer.
The snow outside the pawnshop rose a few more points, and this time the snow was really heavy, and all the footprints had been buried. The conversation with Dominic just now had a lot of tentative implications, the effect of those black gases in the sky over the city, Ye Zhiqiu already had some guesses, in this era, people like him who dare not take the demon spirit seriously can be counted on one hand, and those so-called "mobs" can swing knives at the demon spirit are mostly related to that strange magic array.
Dominic has been in the city for a long time, and if there is any real impact, he should also have a change, but his behavior seems to be relatively normal, and there is nothing suspicious, in this case, it is necessary to go to the tavern that Dominic is talking about.
