Chapter 67: The Strongest Defensive Magic

"What the hell are you ...... Who is it? ”

"It doesn't matter who I am, but since you don't want to say it, I won't force you, after all, it's not the right thing. Now – I'm going to officially begin to make clear what we're here for. ”

The tone suddenly changed to a serious and solemn heaviness, which suddenly made Kemorra even more vigilant.

"According to my observation, you shouldn't be the leader of the Celestial Snake Clan, right?"

"Isn't it?"

"I want to talk to your leader about the next thing, and I hope you can help me convey my intentions."

"Why?"

"Sometimes it's not a bad thing to be brave, but it's also important to look at the right time."

Kurt was right, the only conscious person present was the unarmed Kemorrah.

These words could not help but cause Kemorra to fall into a troubled contemplation.

"You seem to be at pain? Otherwise, I'll reveal our intentions for this time 'slightly'. ”

"Well...... Let's talk about it. ”

"Actually—I want you to attribute all you have to our lords."

"What? You're not joking! Do you want us to submit to your command? ”

"It's not 'us,' it's the supreme 'Lord Fortes.'"

"Fortes......?"

"All in all, that's all I can say to you. If you want to know the future of your race, ask your true leaders to come and talk to us, or we can go in the past. ”

"No need!"

A sudden old rejection appeared out of thin air—but there was no trace of it.

Kurt smiled in anticipation.

"Seems quite self-aware."

The mediocre tone of praise came out of Kurt's mouth.

The voice...... Is it the village chief!? ”

"Kemorrah! You stand down. ”

"But the village chief ......"

"Stand down! They are not enemies you can deal with. ”

"Yes...... Yes. ”

In the end, he was severely persuaded to retreat, and Kemora was unwilling to leave slowly.

Looking at the departing back of the young soldier, Kurt's gaze quickly shifted to the air around him.

"I didn't expect you to be able to meet us in person."

"The villagers who fled to the depths of the camp have already told me that they are enemies with a strange aura."

"Don't you trust your soldiers?"

"Even trust is useless, I didn't plan to come here in person - it wasn't until I felt the power of someone manipulating the space from a distance that I realized that you guys are not small."

"It's an honor to be complimented by you."

"But that doesn't mean I'm going to agree to your request."

The ensuing rejection did not surprise Kurt.

"Looks like you've heard me, right?"

"Even if you have the ability to wield spatial magic, you can't beat me. Even if the little sister next to her goes to war together, it's the same. ”

"Listen to your tone—it seems unconvinced?"

A sharp speculation made the unknown old man's voice stop abruptly.

But it was only a few seconds of silence.

"How do you know if you haven't tried it?"

After dropping this question, an unfamiliar figure rushed out from the right side of Kurt—

"Space Slash!"

"Raven!"

Unhurriedly, Kurt stretched out his right hand to the attacking figure, casting a "crow" that could stop the flow of time.

However, the strange figure was completely out of the Raven's control.

Eventually, it hit Kurt in the waist.

It was the ability to instantly compress the space around Curt's waist to achieve the ability to cut Kurt's body in half.

Theoretically, it should be, but Kurt remains unscathed.

"It's a great way to use it, and it seems that you are quite familiar with the concept of space."

Leaving a high opinion of the raid, Kurt looked to the right in satisfaction.

The scales on the body are shiny silver, different from the dark green scales, not only are they more shiny and noble, but there is also a clear difference in hardness. The stout figure wears a gradient blue down robe, and the necklace of bones of many fish creatures hangs around his neck.

The face looked sophisticated and vicious, full of years carved into the snake's face. There is a thrilling scar on the right half of the snake's eye, and strange fins grow on both sides of the cheek, which fit the long whiskers of the chin.

He was the source of the unknown voice just now.

Although he doesn't look old from his appearance, he doesn't seem to be young anymore from his voice.

Also unarmed, he stayed in a knife-wielding posture.

It seemed to be the end of the attack just now, but unfortunately it didn't work for Kurt.

But he didn't show any panic about it.

"What did you do?"

"It's just to cancel out the amount of effort you've made to change the space, that's all."

"Being able to judge the strength of my exertion so quickly, it seems that you are not easy either."

"After all, this is the only talent I have left, and the level of specialization naturally has to be put on the table."

"But you seem to be too relaxed."

"Huh?"

The old man of the Heavenly Snake Clan smiled meaningfully-

Kurt suddenly noticed something was wrong.

On his left side, a new compression of space suddenly bursts out, and it is coming at him at a super-fast oppressive speed.

"That's what happened to you."

Dropping a calm and relaxed comment, the old man of the Heavenly Snake Clan immediately jumped away from Kurt's side.

Attacks followed.

A violent explosion rang out, and thick smoke billowed out - Kurt had indeed been hit.

The old man of the Celestial Serpent didn't look at the smoke again, but turned to the sirens on the side.

Then make a gesture of preparation to draw the knife.

"I'm going to change you, sister."

"Stupid, just tell you that I'm a lot older than you, how many times do you want me to say it?"

"It's really childlike. Is there anything else you'd like to say? ”

"I don't know if it's a last word—but I advise you to concentrate on dealing with one enemy."

"Do you have any other accomplices?"

"Are you blind? Wasn't my accomplice always by my side? ”

"What!?"

The awakening reminder woke up the consciousness of the old man of the Heavenly Snake Clan.

It was just a blink of an eye—nothing smoky, just an unscathed Kurt.

Standing casually, he looked at the old man of the Heavenly Snake Clan.

In an instant, the old man of the Heavenly Snake Clan realized.

Kurt cast a spell of bewilderment on himself.

With a satisfied smile on his face, Kurt patted his hands appreciatively.

"Use the first wave of attacks as a feint, and condense a delayed space blast in advance where it can hit my weak point. Gradually increasing the power with continuous compression, until it was cast instantaneously when it could no longer be compressed, and finally gave me the fatal blow - not only did I have great spatial control, but also a good brain. ”

"Did you close my consciousness to illusion long before I attacked?"

"Although I'm sorry, this is not to look down on you, I just want to see your strength in a peaceful state."

"You can cast space magic, but you can also control your mind...... Who are you sacred? ”

"Lord Fortes's men—Kurt. Next to him, this is also a subordinate of an adult, a siren. ”

"Who are you talking about Fortes? Why haven't I heard of this big guy? ”

"It's okay if you haven't heard of it, you just need to know that the adults are about to take over this land, and that's enough."

"Why did you choose us? Is it because of our power? ”

"Aha——!ha

The sirens began to laugh heartily.

The shrill laughter echoed through the woods, and the echoes were intertwined with laughter, which was creepy

The old man of the Celestial Snake Clan looked at the siren a little panicked.

"What's so funny?"

"Isn't it funny? What is the selling point of your bullshit strength to attract adults? ”

"Sirens! Don't overdo it. ”

"Oh...... All right. ”

Kurt immediately harshly dissuaded the siren's ridicule, which instantly restrained her rampant laughter.

Then he smiled politely back.

"I'm sorry for causing you upset."

"I didn't ...... Never mind. ”

This was the first time that the old man of the Heavenly Snake Clan had shown his soft side.

But judging from the current situation, the old man of the Heavenly Snake Clan can really only do this.

"That's right! Can I ask your name first? ”

"Reach ...... Darcis. ”

"Mr. Darcis—I would like to state first that although I initially stated that we were visiting this place as invaders, that does not mean that we will use force against you."

"What else are you going to do to us?"

"Maybe it's a peace talk or a minimal deal?"

"Just to fight for the power that can call on us?"

"Trust me - your value is very high for adults. Because you are the owners of this land, and you have the function of killing chickens and making an example of monkeys. ”

"Could it be that your target is 'us' who live in this wetland?"

"That's right. In addition to the Celestial Snake Clan, who can manipulate the space, there are also the Fish-Man Clan, who have strong combat qualifications, and the Snake Clan, who are talented, and you will be our ultimate prey. ”

"I ...... I can't agree with your actions! ”

Dacis left behind his previous fears and turned to a resolute attitude.

This resoluteness is not recklessness.

"Your reaction was already in my prediction. I understand that you, as victims, cannot make the right choices so quickly. To that end, I would like to give you time to think. ”

"Thinking? I'll just tell you that I don't agree! ”

"No—you're going to hesitate. You are a peaceful species that is quite attentive to life, but this positive attitude will make you hesitate. ”

"Why are you so casual about other people's personalities?"

"It's because I have enough power that you can't match. You will never be able to understand it. ”

"What's the explanation?"

"Hahaha, please forgive me if it makes you feel unpleasant. Now that your decision has been confirmed, there is no point in me staying at this time. Hopefully, this time of reflection is not in vain. ”

"Wait...... Where are you going!? ”

Kurt didn't respond.

Just leaving an intriguing smile, followed by a sudden flock of crows bursting out of the surroundings.

Kurt and Siren soon disappeared into the crowd of ravens.

By the time the Sith drove away the dark crows with his bare hands, the two figures had long since disappeared without a trace.

It seems to be an empty scene, but it leaves a lot of things.

This includes the right to make decisions about the future of this piece of land.

In the blink of an eye, Kurt and Siren appeared next to a pond somewhere in the wetlands.

There is a considerable distance from the camp of the Celestial Snake Clan.

The siren grumbled in disgust.

"Who does the old man think he is? How dare you talk to us in that tone? ”

"It doesn't matter if the tone is bad. But thank goodness you didn't kill him, Siren. ”

"I've been patient!"

"I feel your patience."

Calm appreciation. Kurt looked around, as if looking for someone.

He then gave up looking for it, and instead asked the Splinter hidden in his cuff.

"Night Pavilion, can you sense where Chio is by the location of the Splinter traveling with Chiao?"

"Well—it seems to be close to the location of the Fish-People."

"Can you please let me have a few words with Chio?"

"No problem."

There was a brief silence.

Immediately after that, a thousand tails' voice suddenly came from inside Kurt's cuff.

"What are you looking for me?"

"Chiao, I've already had a preliminary conversation with the leader of the Celestial Snake Clan. Don't take the initiative to intrude into the territory of the other two clans now, you know? ”

"I didn't plan to take the initiative to meet, but I don't know much - why only look for the Celestial Snake Clan?"

"Because there's no need to waste time, all three tribes have to meet. A major crisis is coming, and the weak will bring the three tribes together, and then we will also take advantage of the situation to convey our intentions to the other two tribes. ”

"Seeing that you are so confident, then I won't say anything."

"By the way, did you find anything interesting in this decorated land?"

"What's so interesting...... You've got rid of all the monsters, and you don't have a chance to show your skills. ”

"Hahahaha! I'm sorry about that. At this point in the conversation, you can continue to wander around in peace. ”

"Yes."

After a brief yes, Yakaku also cut off the connection with Chiao's conversation.

In an instant, the voice of the Night Pavilion Splinter itself came from Kurt's cuff.

"Although the goshawk has not arrived yet, there is one thing I should tell you first."

"What's the matter?"

"It seems that Lord Forts has something to ask you to meet with your lord personally."

"Of course that's fine - but do you want to tell me what it is?"

"Nope. But not so long ago, the adult passed out for unknown reasons. ”

"Faint!?"

Not only Kurt - even the sirens who had been emptying were surprised to come back to their senses.

What a shocking thing it was.

"The order to meet with you was also conveyed after the awakening."

"Isn't your dragon's body fully recovered?"

"Although I haven't sensed the cause of the disease in adults yet, it's really disturbing to me. Perhaps this summons to meet with adults is to discuss this issue. ”

"It seems that we still need to collect more monster blood so that adults can nourish their bodies......"

"Besides that—I hope you don't mention this in front of adults, maybe adults don't want too many Patronus Spirits to know, but I'm going to tell you first out of concern and let you pay special attention to your health."

"Absolutely. Siren, the follow-up actions of the Celestial Snake Clan will be left to you to continue to observe. ”

"Eun, you can go back first."

"Okay."

With a snap of his fingers, the spatial teleportation was activated, and Kurt turned around and walked into the space he had opened, slightly agitated.

Back on that endless promenade again.

At the door to the corridor into the space stood Griffin, who was already ready to greet Kurt.

"You're welcome back."

"There is no time to wait, and the door to reconciliation with adults will be opened immediately."

"Yes."

Kurt's impatient tone stirred Griffin's nerves.

Quickly reach out your hands and tap them - with a crisp clapping sound as a hint of opening a door.

One of the doors on the right also quietly opened.

"Good luck."

"Yes."

The Hawk-Headed man bowed, watching a nervous Kurt leave through the gate on the right.

Stepping out of the spatial rift, fresh air rushed to his nose and a force that intimidated Kurt and Nightcourt.

"You're here—"

Wu greeted Kurt with anticipation.

Of course, the Night Pavilion also emphasized - to pretend not to know.

"I've kept you waiting, Master Fortes."

"It's fine. Anyway, I want to ask you for a favor. ”

"Gladly."

"I'd like to ask you to sense if there is anything left in this area that can control the consciousness of others."

"Yes."

Curt took off the magic top hat from his head like a hat trick, and the unreadable hand figure turned the top hat, and then three pitch-black crows appeared from the hat mouth.

The trick-like ritual made Wu a little dumbfounded.

The crow spread its wings and flew high, its watery black eyes sweeping everything on the prairie. The pitch-black three figures swirled back and forth in the blue sky, and the seemingly peaceful blue sky was dotted with harmony.

It wasn't until the last crow flew back into Curt's top hat that Curt had an answer.

"As you said, there is 'spiritual magic' around you that can change the memories of others. Judging by the remaining elemental purity, the caster seems to have a good foundation. ”

"But it shouldn't be a threat to us, right?"

"If you're going to be an enemy, you're going to be able to win easily."

"That's good."

The relieved tone also tells the troubles in the heart.

After all, he hadn't been attacked by real magic, and this kind of magic that could change memories sounded dangerous.

But as the strongest defensive magic, can the "hunger strike" also resist the invisible spiritual magic?

"To be honest - I was attacked by a rampaging monster just now."

"You must have easily repelled it, right?"

"I'm not the one who cleaned up the monsters, but that's not the point. I've found that the monsters are scattered with elements that aren't supposed to be what they should be - I have a reasonable suspicion that humans are manipulating them. ”

"Are humans already aware of your presence!?"

"I think it's very unlikely. The other party's attack was very temporary and did not seem to be premeditated. ”

"As long as it is a trouble that you want to be able to get rid of, I will definitely do it for you."

"Don't worry about that, but I'm a little curious - with human qualifications, is there a way to control the number of mid-level monsters that are about hundreds?"

"Report to your lord, if you simply control about ten mid-level monsters, it is indeed possible. If the number comes to about 100, I am afraid that the other party may be a highly skilled person. ”
