Chapter 248: Miss Pei

In Luke's consciousness, about half an hour or so passed before he rushed out of the colorful sea of fate and came to a . On a small island?

As if due to the interference of the flow of time, Luke did not appear directly in front of the praying, but instead came to the woods outside the castle he saw in the mirror.

Then it doesn't hurt to observe for a while.

Luke inflicted a [Psychological Invisibility] on himself, and then walked in the direction of the castle.

His spiritual power spread throughout the castle, searching for the woman he saw in the "Wanhua Mirror".

No

There were children in the whole castle, but there was no little gothic aunt he saw.

But Luke wasn't in a hurry to look elsewhere.

Although it was just a simple sweep of his mental power just now, he still found a lot of interesting things.

Those children, they all seem to be a little abnormal. To be precise, they all seem to be born with superpowers.

At least a few can be seen on the surface that something is wrong.

a girl with a bloody mouth full of fangs on the back of her head; a boy who is physically invisible, and can only see his clothes running with the naked eye; There are also boys whose mouths are in and out of bees; Two children with fully enclosed hoods, like twins.

Although the other children don't look unusual on the outside, they can play with them and are not ordinary people.

In a moment, Luke noticed a girl heating the kettle with her hands, which seemed to have the ability to fire, and a short little girl with the strength of countless times her own size, and easily lifted a solid wood table by herself.

This is the home for gifted children, and the praying little aunt is their guardian?

After taking a closer look at the place, Luke flashed out of the castle window and came to the back door.

Well, there are two more children here, lying on the fence full of green vines, peeking outside. The little Gothic aunt was also nearby, outside the fence, with a crossbow with a good arrow in her hand, facing the shoreline, and took out a delicate pocket watch from her pocket and looked at it, as if she was waiting for something.

Soon, Luke also spotted the guest she was waiting for.

It is an invisible monster, but it still has nowhere to hide in Luke's psychic exploration. It is a humanoid in general, very tall, about three meters long, with a slender body, different hands and feet from humans, all of which are long, white and filthy spikes, and the same white face has only a mouth that is cracked to the ears of normal humans, full of fangs, and a few slender tentacles. Other than that, there are no other organs on the face, such as eyes, ears, and nose.

After checking the time, the little goth aunt looked at the undulating grass on the ground, and raised the crossbow in front of her.

Although she couldn't see it, her aim was extremely precise, and after waiting a few seconds, she launched directly and confidently just as the monster was about to rush in front of her.

The arrow quickly pierced through the air and stabbed straight into the middle of the slender monster's skull, causing the monster to lose its strength and fall to the ground.

Only then did Luke realize that a rough outline had been drawn on the ground with white powder similar to chalk, and the monster had landed in the outline impartially, and the posture of the fall was exactly the same as the shape outlined by the chalk in advance.

This.

Luke thought in his heart, if it was usual, probably he would have to consider whether this little aunt would have the ability to prophesy. But considering the time turbulence she encountered when she entered from the outside world, Luke now was more skeptical that she should have some kind of time ability.

For example, directly see through the time and find the enemy's position in advance; Or go back in time, see the enemy first, and then go back to the past to kill or something.

Seeing the main master, Luke no longer hid, removed the [psychological invisibility], appeared generously, and flew to the side of the prayer from the air.

"Who are you!"

This little aunt was very vigilant, and directly turned her bow and crossbow and aimed it at Luke.

But

Luke smiled, pointed to the crossbow in her hand and said, "Can you hurt people with an empty crossbow?" ”

Miss Pei realized her gaffe, and also realized Luke's kindness, and lowered the bow and crossbow in her hand to the ground, and said, "It is not a gentleman's act to trespass on someone else's territory without permission. ”

Luke explained, "In a sense, I didn't trespass, you invited me. ”

"Oh?" Miss Pei tilted her head and glanced at Luke, "I don't remember when I invited outsiders in, Perry Green Orphanage only invited gifted children to enter. ”

Luke pointed to the castle, "I think you remember what you said half an hour ago, in front of your boudoir, in front of the mirror." ”

"In front of the mirror?"

Miss Pei fell into deep thought.

Miss Pei continued to ponder.

Miss Pei gave up thinking.

Looking at the little aunt who fell silent, Luke couldn't laugh or cry a little.

No, you don't remember what happened half an hour ago?

He prompted, "I wish someone could help me."

"Oh, I figured it out!" Miss Pei suddenly realized.

Then she asked, "But what does this have to do with you?" I'm just talking to myself. ”

Luke casually summoned the "Wanhua Mirror", showed it and took it back.

"I am the deity in the mirror, and any prayer in front of the mirror will attract my attention, including you."

"Come on," Miss Pei was obviously well-informed and not so easily deceived, "besides God, there are gods there, you are a transcendent, aren't you?" ”

Although she used a question sentence, her tone was very determined.

Seeing that the usual methods such as "gods" and "messengers" did not work, Luke did not continue to force his words, but simply admitted it, and followed her words and said: "Well, as you can see, I am a transcendent person who cultivates the realm of 'mirrors', but I did sense your request. ”

Looking at Luke's sincere face, Miss Pei chose to believe, she stretched out her hand, and said, "My name is Perry Green, and I am the director of this orphanage, you can call me Miss Pei." So, can this transcendent person introduce himself? ”

Luke shook her slender fingers and introduced himself as well, "My name is Luke, Luke Asmo Williams, a transcendent from Phoenix, who practiced the realm of 'mirrors' and came to fulfill your previous wish to 'talk to yourself'. ”

"Phoenix, is that Phoenix in the Lighthouse Country on the other side of the ocean?" Miss Pei was surprised and said, "This is Wales, how did you get here?" ”

"It's like your time barrier." Luke pointed to the heavens: "Extraordinary, there are always infinite possibilities. ”

"Alright," Miss Pei asked, stretching out her hand behind Luke and motioning for her to return to the castle together, "so your purpose. Is it really just to help me protect the children and wipe out the 'Empty Beast' once and for all? ”

The so-called "empty beast" is the lanky monster that Luke has just seen.

Luke glanced back at the monster's corpse, "Your enemies are only those monsters, no problem. If I still need to babysitter these children, then forget it, I won't take the children. ”

Although Miss Pei's combat ability is not particularly strong, as a Shihui bird who has survived for a long time, her eyesight is still very reliable, and at least she can still distinguish between strength and weakness.

After these few minutes of getting along, she had already sensed that Luke was many times stronger than herself, and in her eyes, it could only be described as unfathomable.

The guarantee of the strong is always more effective than that of the weak, because the strong can take everything he wants at any time, so he promises not to take it, that is generally not what he really wants. As a result, Miss Pei maintained a considerable degree of trust in Luke when she did not find out that he had any other intentions.

On the way to the castle, Miss Pei briefly told Luke about the current situation of the castle.

Now they are in a time circle opened up by Miss Pei with the ability of "Time Return Bird", in this time circle, the phenomenon of time rewind occurs every night at 12 o'clock sharp, adjusting the time back to 24 hours ago. In other words, all the children in this castle will repeat this day every day and will never grow up.

However, they don't lose the memory of this time because of the regression of time, but purely physical changes.

Luke looked at Miss Pei who walked with her body straight, her energy fluctuations were not very strong, at most she was only a hero level, she could actually set foot in the power of time, and she could also arrange such a magical time regression enchantment. Sure enough, the world is so big that even low-level transcendents may have incredible abilities.

I just don't know what kind of ability the "Wanhua Mirror" will bring to him when the prayer items are settled this time, or create a time barrier, or something else.

To be honest, there is nothing that is not powerful about the ability of time, no matter what it is.

With Miss Pei's "Time Circle" ability alone, Luke can come up with a lot of uses. For example, if you use this as a training base, although time will be retraced every day, and the effect of physical training cannot be retained, the soul and memory will not be affected, which means that people can use this place as a place to brush up on skill proficiency.

If Luke's plug-in is an ability such as the "proficiency panel", I'm afraid Miss Pei will be a perfect match for him, and she can completely brush it here to become a Shilipo Sword God and then go out of the mountain.

"I have been proficient in the time loop for 100,000 years, and I am still a teenager when I go out of the mountain"

An invincible stream is not coming out.

It's a pity that Luke's golden finger is a monster killing experience, so this thing really doesn't have much effect on him, so he should hurry up and finish it and go home.

As the saying goes, knowing oneself and knowing one's opponent is invincible, and what Luke needs most now is the information of those "empty beasts". He asked, "Are the enemies that need to be eliminated the 'Empty Beasts'?" Can you tell me more about them? ”

Miss Pei listened to him talk about business, her eyes were clear, and she beckoned to a girl with curly blond hair, and said, "Emma, go and get that book." ”

The girl was watching Luke curiously, and when she heard Miss Pei's words, she withdrew her gaze and went upstairs to fetch a delicately decorated hard-shell book.

Jack, a high school student who had a lot of questions, also leaned over and prepared to listen to Miss Pei's explanation together.

"We will take in some children with natural abilities who have been abandoned by their parents, open the time circle at the right time, and protect them in the time loop, from the outside world, and always remain innocent. Many years ago, a splinter faction emerged among us, unhappy that special people had to live in a time loop, and their leader was Barron. ”

As she spoke, she opened the book and found a group photo pointing to an explosive-headed black man on the middle page: "That's him." ”

He believed that by using the power of the Temporal Bird, he and his men could gain eternal life without having to live in a time loop. He devised an experiment. ”

Miss Pei turned the next page.

"They kidnapped a time bird, used a special instrument to activate her power in one go, and used her life to create a time storm."

"However, the funny thing is that although they have gained a long life, they have also become inhuman monsters, the 'empty beasts' you have seen before."

Over the course of time, Barron discovered a way to transform back into a human from an empty beast by eating the eyes of humans with special abilities, especially those of children. Since then, he and his men have been searching all over England for the time circle that the Tempo Bird has created, capturing the children, eating their eyes, and using the Tempo to create more empty beasts. ”

Luke nodded, understanding Miss Pei's feud with those monsters.

This matter is a bit more complicated than the previous prayer events, after all, in the past, those were basically to find the enemy and kill the enemy, and this time the enemy does not know where it is, and needs to take the initiative to look everywhere. And they're scattered and easy to miss.

He continued, "Do you know where Barron and his men are based?" Or where they often stay. ”

"In a seaside city in the north-west of England, I remember it was called Blackpool, and I heard it from other birds, where their instrument for making empty beasts was there." Miss Pei said firmly.

I know where the enemy's base camp is, but I just can't destroy the enemy, and it seems that although these birds have a strong time ability, their own combat effectiveness is very average.

However, he looked back at the special children standing behind him, several of them still had quite potential, and if they were cultivated, they should not be slaughtered. But judging from the demeanor and behavior of these children, they don't have the posture of an extraordinary warrior at all, and they should be completely treated as normal children, without cultivating their combat ability.

These birds, simply, overflow with maternal love.

Luke didn't want to be a babysitter here and wait for the enemy to come to the door, so he stood up and said, "Then let's go to Blackpool, find them, and destroy them!" ”

"It's too dangerous! I'm going to stay here and take care of the kids. Miss Pei firmly refused.

"Danger? Just those ridiculous monsters? ”

"Ridiculous monster?" Miss Pei's face was a little unswerving: "Those monsters are naturally invisible, only Jack's extraordinary abilities can be seen, they are infinitely powerful, and they also have difficult tentacles, which are difficult to deal with." ”

Scold.

Luke pointed to the door, let's go out and put on a good show for you.
