Chapter 17: The Demon Race (Rewritten)
"Right...... We are now, in the illusion arranged by the demons. Anything else can be an illusion, but when we die in it, we are really dead. Isu said.
Lanaya felt her cuffs tugged at her, and when she looked at it, she realized it was Grint, and she didn't know when she was standing behind her.
"Don't be afraid, everybody. When he said this, Blaze couldn't even settle his mind, especially after seeing the expressions of his students, everyone. He said to Yisu, "Since you can break in, then we should be able to break in." What did you do then?"
"You're going to tell me these ...... now?" Yi Su felt ridiculous and angry, she pointed to the corpses of her companions, "It is impossible to force your way out of the illusion with your strength!
The eight snow elves were all the elite of the clan, and it took a lot of time and mana for them to break through a crack in this illusion. If it weren't for saving the one of them, named Lanaya, there would not have been such a big loss.
In the Alien Realm, no matter what race it is, the demons are their common enemy.
And this Lanaya doesn't seem to realize who she really is.
She was still muttering to herself, "Illusion...... If we can't get out, how are the demons inside going to get out...... If we can get rid of all the demons in it, how can the new demons get in...... It is impossible for the person who sets up the illusion to be in the illusion himself, so how does he maintain the illusion? The illusion cannot always exist, that is too ......."
"Maintain ......?" Blaze snapped into his senses, "oh—I think it might be. The maintenance of the illusion must have a constant supply of energy, and that source is obviously the caster. However, channeling is unlikely, and it takes too long. So he must have used something like an energy crystal. In order not to reveal his illusion and the location of the power crystal, then the energy crystal should be in this illusion. So as long as we break the energy spar and cut off its energy source, the illusion will be automatically lifted. ”
A few students who had never been exposed to illusion magic sounded a little dizzy, but at least they knew that they still had a glimmer of hope.
Yisu's eyes lit up, and she felt that what Blaze said was still very likely, but then Blaze said to her: "If you want to follow us, just follow my instructions." ”
Isu hated Blaze in her heart, but she could only obey, her companions were dead, and she could not do anything alone in the illusion.
Although there is a goal, finding such a stone in the huge fantasy space is like looking for a needle in the sea. And they have been running for a day and a night, and the sky is almost completely bright, and now is the time when their physical strength is at its weakest. I don't know how many demons lurk in the shadows, waiting for an opportunity to attack them.
At Blaze's request, they set their walking speed to the slowest to be ready for emergencies and also to regain their strength.
"The most dangerous place is the safest place. He said, "The central square of Silver Snow City is the place with the most people, but it is also the most open, and it will not give the demons an advantage in terms of location. ”
Everyone knows that everyone here may be transformed into a demon, but this is also the only and best way. They want to rest, and they can't rest in the woods where their view is heavily obstructed.
Early morning is the quietest time. The snow stopped for a moment, and the faint sunlight crept in through the mist, and the snow was dyed with a pale gold, and some of the snow that was about to melt was glowing with thin droplets of water, revealing a dull blue in the hollows of the footprints.
Ted and Blaze walked side by side at the front of the group, marking each route on the map to rule out areas where the Illusion Crystals might exist. Grint has maintained the posture of pulling Lanaya's cuffs for I don't know how long, and the reason for the posture and the steps are also a little more fragmented than the others. Rosen walked in front of Lanaya's left, just blocking out the sunlight, and his gait was the same as if he were walking, but his left hand was taut with the crossbow.
Yisu floated at the end of the queue, looking indifferent, and sometimes glanced at Xiao Zi's back.
The sunlight came to an abrupt halt at the gates, which were projected by a wide wall. Lanaya staggered past the block of the person in front of her and looked inside. "There are no anomalies," Ted said. Blaze still made a "slow" gesture for everyone to stop, "Yesu, go in and have a look." ”
Yi Su came back to her senses from her complicated thoughts, although her face was full of reluctance, and escaping from the illusion was also their common goal, could she resist.
From the point of view outside the door, there is no one inside, but it is not ruled out that there is a possibility of ambush in a blind corner that they can't see. Isu was named, and he had to take the risk for them, who made Blaze only responsible for the safety of his students.
Yisu fell to the ground, slowly walked in, looked left and right, behind the door, on the city wall, on the roof, as long as it was possible to stand on all the places, she looked at it, and after making sure that there were no demons, she turned back to them and said, "You can come in." ”
Blaze let everyone in.
The streets of Silver Snow City were empty, and there was no one but them. There are neat pine trees planted on the side of the road, and they are lined up on one side, and the trees are pressed with thick snow. At intervals, there is a bench with snow on it.
Grint glanced at the bench and wanted to sit down, she was very tired, but she didn't dare to speak.
Suddenly, the bench turned into a demon dog and pounced on her.
"Ah!!h
The scream that burst the eardrums startled everyone, and the demon dog jumped up and became as tall as a human, scaring Grint back two steps and almost preventing Lanaya, who had been holding her side all along, from standing still.
The demon dog roared, revealing a mouth full of fangs, and that terrifying mouth instantly enlarged in front of Griment's eyes, the size of which could directly bite off a person's neck.
A fishy smell rushed to his face, and Grint quickly closed his eyes, only to scream for another second, and then he was splashed by something.
Blood, all of it, red blood, the demon dog had fallen to the ground, his body was in a different place, and his neck was still gushing out.
Ted wiped out the light blade on his sword, gasping for breath, and his gaze stopped on Grint for a moment to make sure it hadn't hurt her, before he looked back at the road.
"Don't put away your sword. Rosen reminded from the side. Ted also splashed some on the back of his hand, and he subconsciously wiped the back of his hand as he reopened the sword, his expression a little uncomfortable.
Immediately after, all the benches they could see in the distance turned into demonic dogs and rushed towards them. The pines also suddenly began to tremble, and after shaking off most of the snow, they revealed their pitch-black branches, and the dead branches that stretched out their arms rose from the ground.
Ted and Rosen found themselves surrounded by an extra layer of shield. Grint was still in shock when she stood still, and she then applied a shield to Blaze as well, "If there is a team mission in the future, I will never encounter this again!"
"Have you forgotten that I taught you to hide?" Lanaya sighed, and tapped the dart on Grinth's wrist three times, "ding-ding-ding" three times, and finally looked at Grint again, and stepped forward.
Only then did Grint react, the demon dog was so close to her, and she pounced on her at once, she was really so frightened that she forgot everything, and didn't remember that she still had these.
Blaze's calm chanting voice sounded beside Grinthe, perhaps because there was someone next to her, which made Grint feel much more at ease, making her feel that she could use buff magic on others without worrying about being harmed.
Then she was stunned by what was happening in front of her.
The spiritual energy that jumped out of Blaze's palm, like a chain of lightning, instantly passed through five or six monsters, bursting out of them with a strong light, and the sound of "buzzing" electric sparks also sounded in the air, which resounded with the screams of the monsters. A few seconds later, all the demon dogs fell down and stopped moving, and the black withered wood demon was still burning with the light of the magic just now, looking painful and crazy, and lost the ability to attack for a short time.
Electric light, only in the middle and late stages of each layer of psionic realm will form electric light, more precisely, every fifth level will form a circle of electric light, full realm is two circles, according to this, Blaze has reached the small Cheng realm full, level 30......
The vast majority of people can only hover below the Xiaocheng Realm in their lifetimes, and she feels that the current team of Lanaya and Lawson are good enough to maintain a stable strength of level 20, but their mentors are not a few years older than them.
Moreover, Blaze's best skill is actually control magic, and under his leadership, the remaining monsters were also destroyed by them one by one.
Blaze's initial strength was reassuring to the students, but now it was a more serious matter, they had to rest, otherwise they would not have the strength to fight next. Everyone was injured to some degree, and fighting with injuries only increased the risk.
However, such a dangerous place could not allow them to have a little room to rest. The ones they encountered were only the lowest demon creatures, and the stronger ones were already waiting for them.
"Knock ......"
"Knock ......"
The ground shook in bursts. It was like a giant walking around the city, and their first instinct was that the guy was approaching them.
"Knock ......"
Their feelings were right.
Behind the house in the distance, a dark shadow poked its head out and looked in their direction.
The thing had six eyes, all of which were red, and it was initially estimated that the height of the body standing up was more than ten meters, which was six times that of an ordinary person.
"That's the Mind Eater......" There was only despair left in Isu's eyes.
