Chapter Eighty-Eight: The Black City
Ian's words surprised Alan a little, because in his impression, Ian is the kind of cowardly type, who has always been able to hide when he encounters anything, but he didn't expect that he would take the initiative to take on this responsibility that does not belong to him now.
"Then come up. "It just so happens that I have something to tell you...... About your brother. ”
For the rest of the day, until they arrived near Krivari City, Alan had been telling Ian what Ivan had been doing for so long, and what had happened to the whole thing.
When Ian heard that Ivan had attacked them several times and killed them, he lost control of his emotions for a while, and he was incoherent with excitement all the way, and kept saying sorry, but fortunately, before they reached their destination, Alan pulled him back from the brink of collapse.
Frey, on the other hand, has been busy finding a suitable scouting spot. Although he was familiar with the structure of Krivari City, it was not easy to find a safe search place because the Krivari outside had changed so much, so he first drove the carriage around the city several times, and only after confirming that there was no suitable place did he reluctantly enter the city.
He used a telescopic charm to shrink the Spectacle to the size of a palm, so that he could see through it what was going on outside, and while the smell might be detected by the werewolves, they could only detect it, and nothing could be done with them. After observing for a moment, he noticed that the structure and architectural distribution of the entire city did not seem to have changed in any way, at least the locations he knew of such as the headquarters of the Magic Society and the Guardian Statue Monument were still in place, except that the materials that made them were no longer gray-white marble, but instead unified into that black-gray unidentified object.
So in the end, he chose a high-rise building in the southeast corner as a temporary foothold for this operation.
"Come out, it's safe here. He was the first to step out of the Magic Mirror of Passuri, and said, "This is the downwind place, and the floors are high, so our scent should not be detected." ”
To be on the safe side, Cynthia put a camouflage spell on them all.
It's the top floor of a high-rise building that resembles a school library, and you can see the magic eye that looks like a hill in the northern part of the city. But now its huge one-eyed eye was tightly closed, as if it was closing its eyes to recuperate, which made several people feel a lot more relieved.
"What is this?" Riel touched the ground and noticed that the black thing looked like it
Like powder, but solidified together, and incomparably hard.
"It's better not to touch these things. Alan stared at a castle-like building next to the MONOCULUS and said, "I don't know what strange effects Burrestu's magic has, so it's better to be careful...... And there wasn't such a castle there......"
In fact, it's more like a palace than a castle. It has no walls, and its components are large and small, and they are connected together, and at first glance it is pitch black.
"Please help me guard my surroundings, I'm going to start. Frey crouched down and began to use the Earth Listening Spell, "If the size of this city doesn't change, it may take about half an hour to fully understand the situation here." During this time, you must be careful not to reveal your position. ”
"Hmm. A few people nodded, and then went to guard the four directions.
Although there were many werewolves patrolling the streets, the werewolves did not notice them because they were on high ground and wearing camouflage.
But it didn't take long for Riel to suddenly whisper, "Hey, come here...... Look at this!"
He was in charge of guarding the north.
"Its eyes ......," Rare's voice was filled with panic.
A few people looked over and found that the eyes of the demon eye opened at some point......
"Did we wake it up......" Riel tried to keep his voice as low as he could, "I feel like it's staring at us......"
"Don't scare yourself!" Cynthia reprimanded, "If you're so scared of it, you might as well stay in the mirror!"
As soon as she finished speaking, she heard the Demon Eye suddenly cry out, straightened up and waved her arms a few times, and then lay down again and closed her eyes.
"Whew...... Scared me......" Riel patted his chest, "I just woke up and stretched......"
It seems like it was just a false alarm.
At this moment, Frey's voice suddenly rang out: "Found it!"
Several people hurriedly surrounded him.
"So fast?" Alan asked. Only about ten minutes had passed, much earlier than the expected time would take.
"Hmm...... Since this castle was so suspicious, I searched it first, and I found it......" Frey said, staring at the castle, "and she was imprisoned in the rightmost one."
in a room in the tower. ”
"How is she doing now?, is she okay?" asked Alan.
"Rest assured, she's still alive...... It's just ......," Frey said and stopped.
"Just what?" Allen's heart tightened, and he hurriedly asked.
"It's hard to say, and I don't know exactly what kind of state she's in...... It's just very strange...... "I can feel her life force running out, but she's full of magic...... This is completely counterintuitive. ”
"It's good she's still alive, it's good to be alive......" Hearing this, Alan finally relieved himself a little, "What's the garrison there? How many werewolves are stationed there?oh...... Also, where is Bresto?"
"There aren't many werewolves, and Burrestus is in the central hall far away from where she is, so it's not hard to sneak in...... It's just ......," Frey suddenly hesitated a little, "the castle ...... Very strange......"
"Very strange?" Alan was stunned.
"Hmm...... But it's not so much that the castle is strange, it's that the whole city is strange......" Frey said with a puzzled look, "Originally, I could only feel living things in my earth, but at the same time the outlines of these buildings came to my mind......"
"Do you mean that the whole city has a life?" Cynthia was startled.
"I don't know...... I'm a little confused......" Frey said, stamping his foot again, and finding that the ground under his feet was as hard as rock, "but it really doesn't look like a living thing......"
Several people fell silent when they said this.
"I suppose we should try it anyway......" Alan spoke after a moment, "it's not heavily guarded, and Brestu isn't near her...... On top of that, he didn't know that we had already infiltrated, and if we were quick enough, he wouldn't have had time to react even if we alarmed the werewolves...... This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity!"
Alan was already a little impatient, and he didn't want to delay for a second after hearing about Alyssa's situation.
But Frey still looked a little hesitant: "Well, you can try...... It's just ......"
"Why, are there any other strange circumstances?" asked Allen.
"It's not ......," Frey hesitated for a moment, then slowly spoke, "but I don't know why, I always have a ...... Not...... Not so good hunch......"
