Magician 44 Street Siege
At the moment when the revolver fired four rounds in a row, Arnold naturally thought that the victory or defeat had been decided in an instant, and there would be no surprises. Because at such a close distance, even a "professional" can be hit by a sudden bullet and be seriously injured.
But at the moment when the bullet came out, Arnold's amber pupil saw a very strange scene.
The middle-aged man in front of him, who might be a "sage-level" or "professional", actually tripped over a fist-sized gravel in a dark alley. And this one, by very coincident, dodged all the bullets, and the closest bullet to hit was only just the collar on the wide back.
"What's going on...... Arnold wondered, but he didn't stop moving, and continued to pull the trigger in the air, firing the remaining two bullets.
Two gunshots broke the silence under the red moon, and some people nearby looked curiously, and some hid in fear and did not dare to show their faces...... But no matter what the reaction was, everyone was very careful, and no one dared to go out on the street to see the real reaction.
The middle-aged man twisted after falling, and his body got up while luck dodged the bullet attack.
Stabilizing the center of gravity, the middle-aged man shuttled through the alley with Arnold, seemingly just trying to escape like this, without any intention of fighting back.
Not long after, the figure of Ms. Catherine jumped out behind the two, she relied on her powerful explosive power to jump on the side of the gray wall, and then used both legs at the same time, bypassing Arnold in one fell swoop and heading straight for the middle-aged man.
"It's really difficult, it looks like I need the favor of the 'Goddess of Fate'......" As if knowing the situation behind him, the middle-aged man suddenly sped up and distanced himself from Lady Catherine again.
It was at this time that the stone brick walls on both sides suddenly came loose, and first a red brick, painted gray, fell, and struck Miss Catherine precisely on one shoulder.
The low sound of collision echoed in the alleyway, and the white hexagram on her shoulder oozed a trace of blood, but Lady Catherine's face remained unchanged, and her movements did not stop, and her shoulders continued to shake violently as if nothing had happened, chasing after her.
But fate seemed to not see her efforts, and unknowingly deprived her of good luck.
"Boom! Rumble! Rumble! ”
As soon as one stone fell, the wall collapsed like dominoes, and countless bricks were squeezed out of the top or two, drowning Lady Catherine and Arnold in one fell swoop.
Knowing that such a danger would not cause substantial casualties to the pursuers, at most it was just to buy some time, and the middle-aged man escaped from the alley very soberly, preparing to run towards the area with a complicated road section, trying to escape from capture by relying on the short distance of multiple turns......
Everything was normal in front of him, but after a few minutes of escaping, the middle-aged man's abundant inspiration surged wildly.
This means danger is coming!
Before he had time to make a correct judgment through the reaction of inspiration, the middle-aged man saw a figure in a gray coat and a top hat appear at the end of the street in front of him.
As the distance between the two sides narrowed, Cole Terry's face gradually appeared, and his left hand was raised and extended, as if he had grasped something out of thin air, and made a tugging motion, and in an instant, a scroll written in parchment was held in his hand.
Without hesitation, he tore the scroll, and the scroll was tightly glued to the symbols on it, turning into a faint blue light and scattering at a rapid speed, forming an invisible barrier that encircled Cole and the middle-aged man.
"Here, your little trick about fate is not good." Cole's old laughter came out, vaguely tinged with a hint of teasing.
The previous chase Cole has been secretly observing, and found that the other party's ability is to create all kinds of accidents according to the external environment to achieve the effect of his own needs.
Then it is very simple to restrain this strange ability, just find a vacant lot and forcibly use it as a battlefield.
"Alas~" The middle-aged man sighed lightly, took out a black box from his bag, and took out a crimson human skin glove from the black box and put it on his right hand.
At the moment of putting on the human skin gloves, a strange blood red appeared in the center of the middle-aged man's pupils.
"Since that's the case, let's end this farce as soon as possible!"
The middle-aged man didn't say anything more, and with a move of his right hand, a small red moon appeared out of thin air 10 meters above the ground, illuminating the street where the two were located.
When exposed to the red light, Cole only felt a throbbing pain in his head, dizziness, swelling, and he could faint at any time.
Knowing that he was affected by the red moon, he immediately pulled out a scroll from the air again and tore it open.
The scroll, which split in half, fell to the ground and turned into tiny wisps of plant roots, piercing deep into the ground and inserting into the earth, growing a plant that no ordinary person had ever seen.
The plant is about two meters tall and looks like a long strip the size of a steel tube, densely covered with flower buds, which look like sarcomas stuck together.
The buds burst open, and the thick juice flowed out, exuding a strange taste that was neither unpleasant nor unpleasant.
Taking a deep breath of the extra scent in the air, the strangeness in Cole's head disappeared in an instant.
Seeing that the influence of the red moon was invalid, the middle-aged man did not take back the small red moon, because in addition to affecting the transcendent people who are not "bloodline", the red moon can also increase the effect of the "bloodline" supernatural ability, and his human skin glove is a magical item related to the "bloodline".
The human skin gloves in the hands of the middle-aged man flashed red, and the shadows and darkness around them raised little by little, gradually turning into shackles that formed substance.
The shackles were subdivided into two strands, one attacking Cole and the other spreading around, trying to pry up the illusory barrier and find a way to break through.
At the same time, a thick black qi filled the back of the middle-aged man, and the black qi fluttered from side to side, but it took a long time to divide into two parts, forming a pair of wings with two meters long.
With the formation of the black qi wings, the middle-aged man ejected, leaped into the air, and rushed out in parallel with the chains that exuded a gloomy aura.
Seeing this, Cole dodged behind him, and at the same time pulled out two more scrolls, one of which shattered and turned into a scorching flame, sweeping everything around him and bursting forward, like a former knight, about to destroy the enemy in front of him.
Another scroll was attached to the body, turning into a transparent, illusory, weightless, but real armor.
The armor wraps around every part of the body, the hardness and toughness are twice that of refined steel, and it can also resist a certain amount of magic damage, the only drawback is that the duration is too short, only about 15 minutes, and this is only under normal circumstances, if you are attacked by a strong attack, it may be destroyed instantly.
The chains formed by the darkness intertwined and advanced, making a real sound of chains colliding, and when they crossed with the red-hot flames, the chains wrapped around the perimeter were burned, and most of the chains protected inside burst out of the flames and headed straight for the solemn Cole.
"Alas, I should be old at this age, why do I have to do such a dangerous thing." Cole sighed with emotion, pulled out a scroll from the void and crushed it, and the body disappeared in place, and suddenly reappeared on the corner of the street where there was no danger.
Cole took a closer look at the situation in front of him, then thought quickly in his head, and soon had a way to solve the current situation.
But as soon as he raised his hand, he saw the middle-aged man controlling all the shackles and attacking a little bit of the barrier.
Under the strong impact, the invisible barrier trembled, and the corner of the attacked even appeared, revealing a tiny gap.
The next moment, the middle-aged man smiled and turned into a little red moonlight, blending into the whole night. As he vanished, the visions associated with the dark shadows dissipated and returned to normal.
"Did you rush out?" Sensing that only he was left within the barrier, Cole took the initiative to disperse the flames, and glanced at the small red moon above his head, which was also fading a little bit at this time.
On the top of a tall building near the street, Lady Catherine and Arnold, who looked a little embarrassed, were seriously watching the battle below.
The two of them had just come over after they had come out of the ruins, and when they saw the scene, they were ready to wait for a good time.
As for whether Cole will be dangerous, this is not under consideration.
Because in the case of the same rank, any transcendent class needs to pay more energy and cost when dealing with the well-prepared "Scroll Professor", and even so, it may not be able to cope with the "Scroll Professor" prepared scrolls in advance.
Seeing that the battle below had subsided and the target had fled, Ms. Catherine's eyes turned red and her vision changed in the midst of the change.
Now there were no colorful colors in her field of vision, only a gray patch with a blood clot that represented blood. Although the other party's physical state has changed essentially, under the glance of the "blood pupil", there is still no possibility of escaping.
In a matter of moments, Ms. Catherine saw a target at the end of a street that had turned red into moonlight.
"Found it, follow me."
Still as lazily as ever, Lady Catherine rushed out with a terrible bouncing force, and soon appeared above the moonlight.
As her inertia dropped, Ms. Catherine quickly closed the distance between herself and the moonlight, and when she was in the right position, she stretched out her right hand and grasped it.
Of course, she can't catch the moonlight like this, and she doesn't have the ability to crack this extraordinary ability, but her teammates do.
Arnold, who had been paying attention to the situation ahead, clasped his hands together and whispered: "In the cold night, there will always be a ray of light shining on the road ahead."
As soon as the words fell, a white light shot out of the sky, dispelling the darkness around Lady Catherine, and at the same time dispelling a light that was different from her essence.
The figure of the middle-aged man appeared in the light, and appeared just below Lady Catherine.
Suddenly grabbed by a thin hand, the middle-aged man instinctively glanced at the owner of the arm, and found that his vision had ghosted, and it was gradually increasing......
In the blink of an eye, the middle-aged man was briefly hypnotized by Lady Catherine.
