Well, now doesn't seem to be the time to investigate whether or not this otherworldly creature's thought circuit is normal. (The text is first published in the reading room biquge.info)***
After carefully confirming that the birdmen in the sky who were still spreading light did not notice his existence, Edward calmed down slightly, and used the connection of the magic contract to find the two in a small hotel.
"Damn, Edward, what the hell are you doing, you actually threw us in that hellish place for days, saying, where the hell have you run to be happy, you deserve to die by putting two ladies in danger! I'm going to bite you to death!" Obviously, the previous battle didn't cause too much trouble to these two young ladies, at least when they met, Miss Lisa, who pounced on her at the first time, was obviously not abnormal.
"What's merry...... Didn't I save you?"
"Nonsense, you're too late! If it's a little too late, we'll be caught? Do you know that I was brutally hit by them, and I was hurt so badly, how are you going to compensate us?"
"Yan zhΓ²ng's injury...... Besides, didn't I tell you that you could flee if you encountered an enemy? Who told you to fight them head-on? And those guys are obviously trying to catch you, and they won't be ruthless for the time being, even if they are really caught, they won't dare to do anything to you, it's a big deal I'll get something to ransom you out. β
"Nasty, Edward, we've been caught in such a near miss, do you know what terrible things will happen if such a cute girl is captured by the bad guys?"
"Well...... I'm a little worried about Claudia......"
"Bastard, you liar, you dare to abandon the mess, I can't spare you......"
The little girl tried to bite Edward's ear relentlessly, but her strength was obviously far worse than that of the hunter. The latter pinched her cheek with one hand, and stopped her from messing around, so that she had to rub his saliva on his face reluctantly.
"Still. What is she looking for you for?" asked Edward.
"Don't you want that Gandar leftover thing in your hand?" the little girl pursed her lips, still wrapping herself around Edward like a sloth, "What else do you say...... Ah, it's annoying, you asked her yourself. β
She spread her hands. Pull out a thin silver thread. After a little shaking, a black plane was torn apart in the space.
"Good Fellow......"
Edward's eyebrows furrowed, knowing that this was the Dimensional Cave - according to legend, the phase spider spun its web from the sky and the starlight. It is possible to create an extremely convenient nest, which, when closed, is a tiny silver thread, but when opened, it can expand into an extradimensional space with a hole diameter of 6 feet and a depth of 10 feet. In the hands of humans, this thing is almost as useful as a dimensional bag, and its content is not much larger than that of a dimensional bag. But compared to the dimensional bag. It can be loaded with things, but it doesn't have the slightest weight, and when it is closed, the appearance of the silver thread is not easy to damage, and it can be said that it is far more convenient than the dimensional bag.
This one in the little girl's hand was one of the trophies that Edward had extorted from the Fawkes. Considering the danger of the operation, I entrusted her to keep it on my behalf. It's all important stuff that you can't use for a whileβbut now. She seems to have used it for something else.
It's just unexpected that at this time, in addition to the dozens of things sent by the Fox family in exchange, there is one more thing, a living treasure.
That Miss Anna Su was lying in a dark space at the moment.
This is the difference between the dimensional cave and the dimensional bag, the noodles can be filled with living creatures, although when closed, there is no air and no light in it, but it is nothing to magic - she has a ventilation bottle stuffed in her mouth, and as long as this thing holds the mouth of the bottle, it can breathe fresh air at any time.
Being locked up in a dark place where no sound can be heard, the human spirit is often tested greatly, so although it is not long, the face of this staff lady is getting paler and paler-
"I'm sorry, but I'm a little curious now that Tiberius is where, and if I don't hesitate to tell you, I will thank you. Edward tugged at the corners of his mouth.
The ridiculous tone made the beauty in the dimensional cave furious, although her hands were tied behind her back, and she was holding a bottle in her mouth, a little wolf, but she stared at Edward's big eyes, very imposing-some like in memory, a certain kind of existence with a firm faith, seeking the taste of preferring to die unyieldingly.
It's a pity that this is not the plane in someone's memory after all, and it is actually useless for a heart-to-heart transmitter to keep silent.
Lord Mansion......
......
The mansion is not big, nor is it small.
Adjacent to the residences of a first-class duchess and a third-class count, the bluestone bricks covered with vines and the small garden planted with sycamores blended well with the surrounding environment - not much different from all the private residences of the middle nobles of the twenty or thirty years old in Illyrian cities, not seeking opulence, but with comfort and comfort as their main goal.
The midsummer morning breeze blows through the screens of the floor-to-ceiling windows, carrying the coolness of the night and the fragrance of the petals...... But in the midst of it, Tiberius Gracchus did not relax in the slightest.
Taking a sip of the cold rose tea, he stretched his body and rubbed the corners of his eyes, but he couldn't seem to drive away the sour feeling in his body - too much had happened so far this night, so that his spirit had been in an abnormal state of excitement, but now that the matter was not over, the fatigue had already surged up.
There was a soft, rhythmic knock at the door. A subordinate in black walked in quickly. He whispered a few words to the young nobleman...... As a result, fatigue is temporarily driven away from the body.
In its place, there is anger.
"You say it again, none of them survived, the whole Knights of the Thousand Soldiers, is this possible?"
"Yes, Your Excellency Legion Commander, just as they were heading towards the palace, they were affected by the battle between the two mages, and everyone was instantly turned into undead, and finally, under the purges of the Church of Dawn. It's all ...... Although a few people still escaped by chance, it was basically equivalent to total annihilation. The messenger lowered his head, a little tremor in his voice. Unconsciously avoided a few unpleasant words: "His Majesty is furious about this, King Arriveld has been placed under house arrest in Brickerlin Palace, under the care of the royal guard and ten mages, and his staff are all arrested. Responsible for this qiΔ is ......"
"That's enough!" Tiberius roared, "Anna Sue and Cleion, and there's no news yet?"
"No, when the city defense system placed civilians, it seems that someone witnessed their actions, in line with the original goal. However, there was no detailed information after that, and some people said that the place they passed through seemed to be one of the battlefields where the two mages fought, so maybe they ......"
"Get out!"
"Calm down, Your Excellency, Impatience is a fellow traveler of defeat. The messenger hurried away behind the young nobleman. The old mage spoke.
"But what now? I'm afraid we'll soon be approached by those who have died. Without the containment of the part of the cavalry controlled by Arrichelde, the current Thunder can't compete with Jin Jinhua, not to mention, there is also the stupid bear and the ...... of Fox"
"Don't worry, Legion Commander. The mage sighed, "There is no actual evidence to prove it. What do we have to do with Arley Verde, and the Thunder Knight formed. It has affected the balance of the subordinates in the Jin Jinhua Knights, and it has affected the whole body. Presumably, it is impossible for His Majesty to make any unfavorable moves against you, and he will even try his best to maintain you, otherwise, the greater turmoil will also make him tremble. β
"As long as you take Scarlet Yan into your hands, there will naturally be no obstacles. β
"Who!"
In the silent room, the sunlight projected by the window suddenly began to flicker slightly, and in the change of light and darkness, the young nobleman suddenly noticed something and suddenly turned his gaze! At this moment, a voice also echoed in his head.
"Your Excellency Tiberius. It's been a few days. "That calm tone, the pronunciation is accurate, but with a long tail note that is different from that of the empire, and it is not as pretentious as the aristocracy, which makes people feel friendly.
The young nobleman, however, stiffened suddenly.
β...... Lord Edward. β
Looking at the gray figure sitting upright on the bench in front of him, Tiberio spent a lot of effort not to let his tone be overly surprised and sharp, but the muscles on his face still twitched a little uncontrollably.
The man leisurely sipped a cup of rose tea in his hand. It's as if it's an old friend for many years, and it's chatting.
His pale face was hidden in the dark shadow of his gray hood, revealing his pale chin, and only the glowing silver flames burned in his eyes. The gaze of these flaming eyes almost made the young legion leader's body trembleβ
Eventually, however, he restrained himself, and to disguise that he was barely holding on, he slowly sat back in his chair.
There was a loud bang, followed by a short scream,
"I can't help myself!"
The arcane energy gathered in the black gem at the tip of the staff with that trembling sound, and then a strong purple luster erupted on the staff, but before this luster could turn into energy, it had already exploded in a piercing buzz! The crystal at the tip of the staff turned into a fine mist, and the caster took a few steps back sharply, spitting out a large mouthful of blood!
This right-hand man made the face of the young legion commander suddenly lose the last of its blood, and it was indescribably pale and dark.
His fingertips trembled slightly, and he almost wanted to give a direct order, summon all the combat power around him, kill the opponent on the spot, seize what was on his body, and then use his head to exchange for his own future with His Majesty.
But the terrible rumors before him couldn't make a decision.
An opponent who can unknowingly inflict heavy losses on a high-level mage, regardless of whether his own subordinates can clean it up or not, but his own life is probably completely unguaranteed! What's more, the conditions that the other party just said are what he must get...... He has already paid too much for it, and if he turns his face now, then all the investments will be in vain.
"What do you want?" After a long time, he slapped the table and let out a long breath of turbidity. Calm your face again.
"Simple. Just send us out. The man in the gray robe didn't seem to be interested in his agitation at all: he blew on the floating petals of the tea, and smiled, "With your current status, it must not be difficult to send a small group of men out of the city, as long as we are in the middle of it." When the time comes, he will naturally leave. And that's my last request, and then, you'll get what you want. I think. That's enough to get you out of your current predicament. β
"Not now...... Tiberius frowned...... Then he soothed: "Well, later, Lord Edward." β
He moved his purple body, and a ray of sunlight shone on his cheek. It made him look a little calmer.
...... Partition......
The luster of the magic casts into the space from the polished smooth surface of the crystal, with a slight cyan sheen, making all the qiΔ extremely pale.
"Master. β
The long figure bent down slightly, the black robe looked like a huge raven in the light and shadow, and the chin that only showed the shadow of the hood was the beak of the bird.
"We've sent men skilled in magic to quell those rumors. It is believed that as long as there is no special route of transmission. It should be possible to slowly calm down the matter in a month, no, about two ten-day days, just...... Loss of the Mage Tower...... It's huge. β
The young man lowered his gaze and paused before he spoke: "The damage received by the tower body is not strict, it only needs to continuously transmit energy. It should be after three hourglasses that the old view can be restored. But earth elemental trolls...... The soul core of test item 17 is no longer there. All we have sealed back is a piece of its wreckage. Although there is still some consciousness remaining, intellectually, it can no longer be called a living being. β
"Hmm. At the end of his gaze, the old man, who was standing still in front of a piece of crystal, let out a deep voice.
"In addition, the Eight-Pointed Star Breaking Circle has been re-established with a backup device, but without the magic guide that was originally used to provide power, its power will be reduced by at least three layers. Moreover, the newly generated circle will inevitably be insufficient in terms of the effect of suppression. Unable to play a bigger role. After a pause, the young man's voice gradually weakened: "As for the saboteur, we have used all the prophecy crystals in the mage tower, but we have not found any useful information, but please rest assured, the entire city is now under our surveillance, and I believe that as long as it takes time...... I'm sorry, Mentor Tesla, but we allowed a dangerous spawn into the Mage Tower. β
"Don't be careful, I must admit that I am a little underestimated, and you do have the fault of being unresponsive, but the main responsibility is still with me!"
** Shi turned around, his face trembling slightly with the words, like a lion waiting for an opportunity: "I was already warned at the beginning, but I wanted to test some functions of the mage tower, but the enemy seized the opportunity. So you can inform the mages who are injured today, each of them can get contribution points equal to the rank, some of the mages who participated in the action will get half the number, and several who are responsible for the seal will be doubled. That's it, so that everyone doesn't have to worry too much. Also, about that thief...... Tell all watchers, if you are not a high-level mage, it is best not to overdo it. The guy who has to try it before he knows the result is destined to not go far on the path of the arcane. β
"Yes. The young man nodded, but did not leave: "Mentor, the thief...... Did you steal something very important?" he asked, after a pause.
"Curious?"
β...... Be. β
"Signs will eventually emerge, echo signs, someone who has traveled through thousands of planes to come here and hold on to the silver calamity. The ominous will return to the earth...... In the past, in the future, in the present, it is everywhere, it is everywhere, it has been destroyed, it has been resurrected, and so on, and forever. He holds the key to multiple worlds, so as to open the door to the other world, it is the only one, he is not the only one, only the power, the only way to control ......"
"It's ...... The ancient Suluks, the psalms of the world?" the young man looked up, and his eyes brightened in the shadows of the hood.
"The Suluks, how could those nomadic fellows write something that touches on the truth? They are merely reciters, part of the Ancient Heritage, the Song of Kabbalah, to describe an artifact, one of the five beings that once threatened the entire multiverse. The old mage opened his eyes.
"Somewhat...... It's been too long. β
"But it's true, and I also got some legends about this thing by accident, of course, just legends don't say anything, the key is that there are real things. β
"Could it be one of the eight-pointed stars, but we've all verified that they're just from the time of the Ancient Magic Kingdom, right?" the young man was surprised.
"It should be said yes, but it's not accurate, one of them, the Spark Orb, should be a recast. It was a fragment of that thing. I'm almost certain that that's what he aims, and that the rest of his actions are just cover-ups. The ** division raised his eyes, and the focus of his gaze fell on the unknown distance, "Or, is his personal behavior, but it is not excluded, it is Hawking, Albert...... These two old things, maybe they found something. It's not very important, it's just a fragment, but their plans, it's better to ask about it. β
Dingding.
A small voice interrupted the conversation, and the young man reached out and took out a small crystal, looked at it, and the corners of his pale mouth suddenly twitched twice.
"Master, according to the information transmitted by the leader of the Thunder Knights, the latest formation of the Empire, they have found the whereabouts of that thief. (To be continued......)
