Chapter XXVIII
At the entrance to the sewer in the middle of Berklund Street, several figures in thin trench coats suddenly appeared, all wearing red gloves that were as red as blood.
Cessima was carrying a silver-white suitcase with a metallic silver chain wrapped around Sessima's left wrist.
Looking around her surroundings, Cesima confirmed that she had reached the approximate location of the enemy she had previously been prompted by the ritual magic, and she prepared herself and ordered a member of the Red Glove Team to open the chest.
The surface of the silver-white box rippled illusory ripples, and then the ripples cracked, and the orange light emitted by the surrounding street lamps was sucked into the box at once, and then the white and soft light floated, and a bone sword that exuded a moist brilliance floated up holding a silver mirror.
The night watchman in charge of opening the box held the mirror in his hand, took a few steps back, and pointed the mirror in the direction near the sewer entrance, including the surrounding houses.
The silver mirror clearly shows the neighborhood of Bercolnd Street, which seems to hold more than a normal mirror.
The dim glow of the street lamp came back on, and Cesima picked up the bone sword and said aloud, "Let's go down first, find the enemy's specific location, and force her out of the sewers." ”
Flora sprang out of hiding place as soon as she sensed something unusual, and all creatures without extraordinary elements became illusory, and she was even willing to parasitize the rats in the sewers, but even this could not be done.
Her body is seriously injured, and if she can parasitize others, she can still use most of her abilities, but if she does not have a target that can be parasitized, her seriously injured body will greatly drag down her fight.
She doesn't plan to fight the official Extraordinary, she just wants not to come to the Machine Heart, because the Machine Heart has too many strange magical items, and likes to cover attacks with thermal weapons with extraordinary abilities, which makes it difficult for her to escape. As soon as she got out of the sewers, she planned to steal as much distance as possible and run away.
Sesima and the others entered the dark and filthy sewers, the darkness did not cause them any difficulty in their vision, and they held a specially treated third-level seal corresponding to the thief's path, ready to use the occult connection to sense the location of the hidden enemy.
This seal is less harmful, and after each use, you will not be able to restrain yourself from stealing other people's property until the value of the stolen property is equal to the value of the thing affected by the ability to use it this time.
A female figure with light gold, almost silver hair, suddenly appeared in the eyes of Cessima and the others, and the members of the Red Glove Team who were holding the seal in their hands suddenly felt a strange touch coming from their palms.
The figure quickly approached, and Sesima immediately clenched the bone sword.
The Extraordinary Sequences of the Dark Path lack the means of attack quickly and powerfully below the high Sequence, and the Lower Night Watchers rely more on their athletic skills and extraordinary bullets or seals.
Cesima rushed forward, and the invisible spirits surrounded Flora, and they stretched out their arms to pull at Flora's body, slowing her movements. Sesima swung her bone sword and stabbed straight at her enemies.
As Flora ran, she stretched out her right hand and twisted her wrist at several of the night watchmen, and Cesima suddenly felt like she had lost control of her spirits. The spirits betrayed Sesima at once, and they all turned around and tangled up a few red gloves. Losing the ability to drive the spirits of nature, Sesima prepares to fight with only the bone sword, while the other Nightwatch Keepers immediately use their Nightmare abilities to try to pull their enemies to sleep, even if they don't succeed, they can also bring sleepiness and sluggishness to their enemies.
Cessima's tumbling and jumping stabbed forward several swords, blocking all of Flora's escape routes, Flora struggled under Sesima's high-speed attack, and finally found a gap in the battle, she immediately stole from the enemy again, and Cessima suddenly froze in place, as if forgetting why she was here and why she was fighting.
The other Red Gloves used their abilities as they took out their pistols and fired wildly at the enemy, when suddenly, their pistol hand paused, and they collectively forgot how to pull the trigger.
Taking advantage of the brief pause in the Nightwatch's attack, Flora avoided the crowd, stealing the distance, quickly moving away, and running towards the entrance to the sewers.
Above the entrance to the sewer on Berklund Street, a team member with red gloves was also holding a black box.
The box seemed to be dyed with the thickest and deepest darkness, and the atmosphere of tranquility lingered on it.
"Be prepared to open the box as soon as the enemy comes out."
The red glove holding the black box chose a position that was not far or close to the entrance to the sewer, and he firmly held the bottom of the box with one hand, and the other hand was clasped on top of the box, ready to open the box as soon as he saw the enemy.
Suddenly, there was the sound of climbing an improvised staircase at the entrance to the sewer.
Flora quickly climbed out of the sewer, and was greeted by several flying bullets, which suddenly fell straight to the ground, seemingly losing their original trajectory.
Then a flash of red appeared in front of her eyes.
This is a pair of red dancing shoes with bright colors and delicate styles. It greeted Flora happily, like a little girl in a beautiful dress.
Gasping for breath, Flora was about to steal the distance and run away according to the original plan, when suddenly she felt something special establish a connection with her body, and a cold feeling quickly spread from the soles of her feet to her whole body, which had an impact on her spiritual output, just interrupting the process of using her most basic ability.
She looked down at her feet, and the red dancing shoes that were still in front of her eyes and some distance from her were now on her feet, and they were the right size, as if they were her own shoes.
Flora was about to steal the occult connection to the shoe and pass it on to the Red Glove, who was present.
Sesima suddenly leapt out of the sewer entrance and stabbed her with her sword.
Flora's location was not far from the entrance to the sewers, and Cecima's sudden sword was as fast as lightning, and if she was stabbed by this holy sword blessed by the power of the goddess of the night, she would be severely damaged, and even if she escaped, she might not have time to find a cure.
She had no choice but to steal the position of the other Red Glove team member first, so that the enemy could accidentally injure her companion.
It's just that Flora, who didn't have time to get out of the possession of the red dancing shoes, changed his position by stealing, and was horrified to find that the power of the strange curse was eroding too fast, and was swimming quickly in his body at this time.
Flora's body begins to dance uncontrollably, raising her arms, swinging, bending her knees, kicking, leaning forward, leaning back...... It's like a novice who has just learned to dance, breaking down the smooth dance into movements and practicing them one by one.
The thought came to her mind again, stealing the distance, fleeing quickly, the curse of the magical item, she could escape and solve it, but she found that she seemed to have lost most of her extraordinary characteristics and abilities out of thin air, and she could not use the ability to steal intangible concepts.
She was terrified, unable to control herself, Huo De unfolded her incomplete mythical creature form, various parts of her body had changed, unable to maintain her normal human appearance, and small insects with seven or eight rings of mysterious patterns crawled in and out of the monster that was still dancing.
The Red Gloves immediately moved away from Flora and closed their eyes at the same time.
The monster could not escape the control of the red dancing shoes, and the curses accumulated more and more, like balloons that were constantly inflated.
Suddenly, the monster's body cracked, and the red dancing shoes that had been put on its feet disappeared at some point, and they actually came out of its body.
The monster was still writhing, but the breath of life was fading, and mysterious bugs began to crawl out of their bodies.
"Can't let these bugs escape!"
Saisima and the others had already opened their eyes and saw that the enemy had no ability to fight back, but it seemed that they still had some spirit to escape, so they hurriedly shouted as a means of resurrection.
"The threat of fear, the hope of crimson!"
“……”
As the midnight psalm sounded, the insects crawling around slowed down and seemed to have a tendency to fall asleep.
Sesima and the others endured the dizziness and headache caused by looking directly at the insects, and attacked the insects that were still trying to crawl with precision, until there were no more living insects crawling out of the monster's body.
The red glove team member holding the black box had already opened the box and was facing the red dancing shoes that broke out of the body.
As if hiding the starry sky of the night, thin black lines stretched out from the inside of the box, and they wrapped around the red dancing shoes, making the restless red dancing shoes gradually quiet, as if they had also fallen into a permanent sleep.
