Chapter Eighty-Nine: Infiltration
"The defense of the City of Light is very tight."
Lin Yi borrowed [Enhanced Farsightedness] to observe the situation in the City of Light from a distance.
This ancient city has walls taller and thicker than the Forgotten City, and the surface of the walls is carved with strange spell symbols, all of which serve as defensive magic.
There are cannons every few meters at the head of the wall, towers every few tens of meters, and in addition to this, there are tactical airships and various flying cavalry in the sky, which is really a solid defense like an iron barrel.
"Xida, are you sure that you will break into the City of Light?"
Lin Yi lowered his head and asked, Xida looked at the city in the distance and replied, "I can break in, but I may not come out." ”
Yes, don't think that there is only the outer wall of defense.
From the very beginning of its design, the City of Light had already predicted that an enemy would break through the defenses and break into the city.
Therefore, in the interior of the city, a lot of overt or covert attack settings are also laid to ensure that the enemy who intrudes will not be able to move an inch.
"Well, it looks like it's not going to work."
Lin Yi nodded.
Xida is now his slave, which is equivalent to private property, and Lin Yi can't let her be cannon fodder.
A good knife naturally has to be used on the blade, and Xida will have a greater use in the future, so he has to keep it.
"Well, now there are only two ways to go."
Lin Yi said to Farina and Hilda, "First, we secretly infiltrated the City of Light and assassinated Leomund. ”
"Second, we'll lure Leomond out of the city and kill him."
"Which of you two do you think is better?"
Farina: "The first! ”
Hida: "The second! ”
Lin Yi: "...... Forget it, I'll make up my own mind. ”
"Our goal is only Leomond, not against the entire City of Light, so we secretly infiltrated and assassinated Leomond, and it was decided."
Lin Yi looked at Falina and Xida and said, "Falina, your identity is too obvious, it will be found out, so don't go, this time I will cooperate with Xida." ”
"Master, I can use [Transfiguration]!"
Falina didn't want to miss this opportunity, and she wanted to ask Leomund about her father's whereabouts herself.
"Can your Transfiguration survive Leomund's eyes?"
“…… No. ”
Falina shook her head helplessly, she was not on the same level as Leomund in magic, and in the eyes of the other party, she was at most a trainee.
Lin Yi touched her hair and said, "You can stay here with peace of mind, and I will help you interrogate Leomond." ”
"Thank you, host!"
Falina raised her little face with a grateful expression.
"Sida, you turn into a human form, and then I'll hide on you, and we'll go into the city."
"Yes, master."
There was a flash of light, and Hilda was back into the red-haired beauty, but she was still covered in black scale armor, and she had to find a set of ordinary clothes to change into.
Luckily, there was a village nearby, and they had secretly stolen a peasant woman's clothes for Sida to wear.
Hilda doesn't like to wear clothes, especially human clothes, and feels awkward all over her body, and wants to tear her clothes apart.
But under Lin Yi's threatening gaze, she could only obediently obey, dressed herself as a beautiful peasant woman, carrying a small basket containing Lin Yi, and walked towards the city wall with a twist of her waist.
After being inspected by the guards at the city gate, Xida and Lin Yi successfully blended into the city.
Lin Yi opened the lid of the basket and saw the shadows of players everywhere on the street, and said secretly in his heart: "It seems that the player and the natives of this world get along quite well, well, when Falina's matter is over, I will go to the ten people on the list and complete the second condition." ”
When passing by a shop, the player has already surrounded the shop, holding up the items in his hand and asking for sale, and the shopkeeper is too busy to do so, but his face is smiling.
Along the way, Sida finally found the Mage Guild, a palatial tall building with a tall flagpole at the top of the building, and a four-color flag representing the four elements fluttering in the wind.
Diagonally opposite the Mage Guild is the most authoritative organization in the Dieters Continent, where the Church of God is located.
The two are so close, and it is not difficult to understand why they are so close.
The gates of the Mage Guild were not guarded, but magic was set up, and the two iron lizards lying on the door remained motionless, their eyes glowing red, scrutinizing everyone who entered and exited the Mage Guild.
"Sida, can you destroy these two iron lizards?"
Lin Yi had a conversation with Xida in his heart, and he couldn't let these two things reveal their identities.
"No problem."
Hilda's eyes glowed with two red lights, exactly the same as the red light on the iron lizard's eyes.
It didn't take long for the eyes of the two iron lizards to dim and become lifeless.
"I've ruined them and can safely enter the Mage Guild."
"Very well, let's go."
The two of them walked into the Mage Guild, and the mages on either side looked at Sida in surprise.
Why did a peasant woman come to the Mage Guild?
This is a place for the magical elite to learn and do things, why can such a lowly person come in?
"It's still getting noticed, forget it, let's go straight to Leomund!"
Sida quickened her pace and quickly rushed up the stairs, shouting from behind her: "Woman! Hold it! ”
There are six floors in the Mage Association, and Xida was stopped by someone as soon as he ran to the third floor, and the two male mages in blue robes were panting: "You ran quite fast!" Who let you in? This is the Mage Guild, not the vegetable market, get out! ”
Sida looked at them, her lips opening slightly, and she uttered a spell.
The expressions of the two of them suddenly calmed down, and their eyes looked directly at Xida, as if they had been hooked.
Lin Yi emerged from the basket: "Where is Leomund?" ”
"The Elder is in the office on the top floor, but now he's not there."
One of the male mages replied mechanically.
"Where did he go?"
"I don't know."
Lin Yi pondered for a moment and said to Xida: "Erase their memories, let's go to Leomund's office and wait for the rabbit!" ”
"Yes, master!"
……
Leomond, who had returned from bidding farewell to von Ayn, frowned as he walked to the gate of the Mage Guild.
He discovers that the two iron lizards guarding the gate have actually broken down.
"Is it too long and the mana has been exhausted?"
He stepped forward and reached out and touched the bodies of the two iron lizards, and he infused them with powerful magic.
The iron lizard's eyes lit up red again, as if it had been reborn.
Stepping into the Mage Guild, everyone who met him respectfully saluted him: "Lord! ”
Leomund nodded majestically, climbed the magic elevator, ascended to the top floor, and walked to his office.
Just as he was about to push the door open, his eyes narrowed and he took a step back.
But where he was standing, another "Leomund" appeared, which was his vision.
Leomond writhed at the doorknob, and the illusion matched him, unscrewing the doorknob and walking through the door.
Brush!
A dark shadow appeared behind the illusion, a slender finger, but a sharp finger pressed against his neck.
"Leomond, I've been waiting for you for a long time."
Lin Yi opened his mouth and said.
Shida suddenly said, "Master! This is not Leomund, it's an illusion! ”
Lin Yi was stunned for a moment, and then saw a red light suddenly flash outside the door!
Rumble!
There was a violent explosion in the room!
Leomond put down his staff, his face gloomy, he knew that the other party was not dead.
Sure enough, in the smoke, a figure appeared.
The clothes on Xida's body were burned to tatters by the flames, revealing a black scale armor, Lin Yi lay on top of her head, looking coldly at Leomund outside the door.
"Who are you? …… Slime? ”
Leomund suddenly remembered something and whispered, "Where is Farina?" ”
Lin Yi also opened his mouth and asked, "Where is Farina's father?" ”
Leomund sneered: "Her father is already dead!" I killed it with my own hands! ”
"Well, kill your best friend with your own hands, you are a very qualified villain!"
Lin Yi's body turned from turquoise to fiery red because of anger, of course he didn't know it.
"Then there is no need for you to live, I will send you on your way!"
Lin Yi unleashed a powerful magic power, and hundreds of magic spells rushed towards Leomund like a raging storm!
[Enhanced Flame Burst] launches!
[Enhanced Boulder Hammer] launches!
[Enhanced Hail Technique] launches!
[Enhanced Thunder Sword] launches!
[Enhanced Whirlwind Blade] launches!
……
Leomond's eyes widened, he couldn't believe that a single slime could unleash such an astonishing amount of magic, and no less powerful!
He knew that he couldn't resist it, so he immediately used the [Teleportation Technique] and fled to the hall on the first floor.
Rumble!
There was a loud bang overhead, and the entire mage guild trembled, as if an earthquake had struck.
Everyone was so frightened that they crouched down with their heads in their hands, and their faces showed a look of surprise.
Leomund shouted, "Get out of here, there's an enemy up there!" ”
"Inform all the red-robed mages to come back and fight immediately! And you, go to the Church of God to report to the Sect Master, and ask him to send the Cult Army to help! Just go! ”
As soon as he finished arranging, he heard someone outside shouting: "Black Dragon! It's a black dragon! ”
"What?"
Leomund was shocked, why did the black dragon come here? Does it have anything to do with that slime?
He immediately rushed out of the door, and when he looked back, he saw a huge black dragon lying on the roof, a pair of huge dark golden beast pupils staring at him tightly.
And on top of the black dragon's head, a red slime was lying on it, it was Lin Yi.
"Slime and Black Dragon teamed up? What's going on? ”
Leomund felt a little confused, it was ironic that two of the weakest and strongest creatures on the continent were now intimately together!
"Leomond, I only want your life today, stand there and don't move!"
Lin Yi threw away another "magic package", and in an instant, the ground fell into a frenzied magic storm.
Leomond's figure appeared in a hidden corner, his face turned pale, even if he was the strongest mage, he didn't have the confidence to be able to deal with Lin Yi.
What's more, there is a black dragon under Lin Yi!
Sida's eyes kept locking on Leomond's location, and she opened her mouth, and the flaming dragon's breath poured out, instantly setting the house where Leomond was hiding!
The flames were everywhere, and there were figures fleeing in panic everywhere, and the place was in chaos.
Occasionally, a few mages used magic to attack Lin Yi and Xida, and were solved by Xida's random magic.
Soon, a group of heavily armed soldiers arrived, and they lined up in two columns, with shields more than a man tall in the front row and weapons like firecrackers in the back.
"Aim, shoot!"
Woohoo!
Smoke rose from the firecracker, and red magic bullets flew towards Xida and Lin Yi.
Sida folded her wings to fend off the attack, but what she didn't expect was that those magic bullets actually pierced her wings!
"My body can't stop me?"
Xida's face was shocked, and Lin Yi was also surprised, what was the weapon used by those soldiers, so powerful?
"Now is the time! Hida! ”
Lin Yi saw that the soldiers in the back row were loading ammunition, and he asked Xida to seize the opportunity to attack this group of soldiers.
But Hida's dragon's breath was blocked by the shields held high by the soldiers, and there were no casualties.
Lin Yi then also threw a magic package in the past, although it caused some confusion to the other party, but it still had no effect.
Seeing that the soldiers were reloaded and ready to shoot a second time, Lin Yi immediately let Xida fly away.
If she doesn't go, Hilda will most likely be shot into a sieve!
"Hehe, it's really time for the Sect Master's Divine Sect Army to come!"
Leomund stepped out of the flames, and he cast the [Water Shield] on himself, but the flames could not harm him.
One of the leaders of the Cult Army saluted Leomond: "Elder, the Sect Master has ordered me to come to assist you, and more Cult Army will come in the future." ”
"Very good, Captain!"
Leomund nodded in satisfaction: "Kill that black dragon, just as I want to make a zombie dragon!" ”
In the sky, Hida's flying posture was crooked, because her wings had been knocked out of large and small, hundreds of holes, and the wind passed through it, making her unable to control her body, and there were already signs of falling.
Lin Yi used the [Enhanced Levitation Technique] and landed on the ground with her.
"Sida, are you hurt?"
Lin Yi found Xida lying on the ground wilting and without energy, and when he looked closely, he found that she had been shot in the abdomen, and blood was flowing out of it.
"You're a black dragon, and this kind of injury can't heal itself?"
Lin Yi frowned.
Sida said weakly, "Master, they are not using ordinary bullets, but ...... With bullets made of black magic stones, my wounds won't heal...... Ahem......"
As she spoke, she coughed up blood.
"Expose the wound and I'll help you heal it!"
Lin Yi asked Xida to turn over, revealing the wound, where the flesh and blood were already blurred, and he could vaguely see that Xida's flesh and skin tried to heal on their own, but they couldn't heal together due to the impact of something.
"Looks like the bullet is inside."
Lin Yi lay on the wound and sucked hard, and a black bullet the size of a thumb was sucked out by him.
"Such a small thing can kill a black dragon...... The power of the weapons in the Holy Capital seems to be not low! ”
Lin Yi tried to swallow the Black Magic Stone bullet, and a hint appeared in front of him.
