Chapter 555: Containment

Mephistopheles looked up at the barrier in the sky that was indistinguishable to the naked eye. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

"Being able to engrave a magic array on a barrier made of magic is the power of the strongest magician in the world? ”

This level of technology is not to mention humans, and even elves and dragons can't have it, this is an abnormal technology.

But now is not the time to think about these things.

"Do you want to use brute force to break it? It won't work. ”

It's just an idea that is infinitely close to a joke and has no practical meaning. The magic has already started to work, and if it is destroyed by brute force, no one knows where the half-completed teleportation will send the people and objects inside, and it is impossible to say that it will fall into the cracks of space.

Once the magic is established, there is no way to do it with Mephistopheles now, and this is probably the effect that the man wants, right?

"I gave up. ”

With that, Mephistopheles came to Edward and sat down.

"Since the man wanted to leave me alone, he wished to take advantage of this opportunity for a rare vacation. No matter how much he struggled, he couldn't change anything anyway. ”

Edward didn't speak, just looked at Mephistopheles, and Mephistopheles talked about his plans as if he hadn't noticed Edward's gaze.

"I was going to take advantage of the fact that you were one step ahead of the action to get in touch with him, so I could sell the next battle to those monsters as a 'favor', but I didn't expect to be messed up by you, so I shouldn't be too greedy. ”

Soon, the magic was fully complete, and with a sudden noise, the surrounding light was completely cut off, and everything was plunged into pitch black.

That's a bit wrong, because even in the middle of this area, the barrier overhead is more obvious because there is no interference from other light sources.

In such an environment, Mephistopheles was the only one who had the leisure to talk and laugh, and he pointed to the enchantment in the sky and said to Edward.

"You see, now you can clearly see the magic circle above. ”

Edward's face turned pale in the dark, he knew what fate awaited him, no matter how firm you are in your consciousness, it is different when facing death, in such a situation, Edward will not be in the mood to chat with Mephistopheles.

It didn't take long for the noise to stop, but the light didn't return.

"Looks like we've been teleported to a place where there's no light. ”

Mephistopheles stood up and patted the dust from sitting down.

"Hopefully this won't be deep underground, or it will take a lot of effort for me to get back to the surface. ”

Mephistopheles' ability as a demon lord is teleportation, which is not difficult to see from the previous battles, but his teleportation can be used frequently and casually while inevitably having two shortcomings, short teleportation distance, and only being able to teleport point-to-point.

Rather than teleporting, Mephistopheles is able to open a channel within a certain range, this channel is not only short, but also cannot change the entrance and exit after molding, although it can also be used to carry out a similar positioning and teleportation effect by constantly opening and closing the channel, but this is undoubtedly too much trouble.

That's why Mephistopheles said it would take a lot of effort.

"Where are you going?"

Seeing that Mephistopheles was leaving, Edward subconsciously asked.

"Why do you have the spirit to talk to me now?"

Mephistopheles sarcastically replied without looking back, but answered Edward's question anyway.

"Of course it's to find a way to leave, otherwise would you sit here and wait to die?"

Hearing Mephistopheles' words, Edward almost jumped up from the ground.

"Butβ€”"

"You don't want me to cooperate with your plans and stay here honestly, do you? What do you think you are? God? I didn't do teleportation magic before because it was useless, not to cooperate with you. ”

Mephistopheles interrupted what Edward hadn't yet spoken.

Edward, of course, knew what Mephistopheles was saying, but he didn't have that naΓ―ve idea.

"I'll go with you. ”

Edward said.

"Even if I can't stop you, I have to keep an eye on you and keep you from doing anything more harmful. ”

Mephistopheles laughed, and Edward felt humiliated by the mocking laughter that seemed to see everything, but he looked at Mephistopheles unrelentingly, the darkness could not stop his burning gaze, and there was a taste of not giving up until he had achieved his goal.

After laughing for a while, Mephistopheles' laughter gradually stopped.

"What a lame reason. ”

Mephistopheles' reply was mocking, but he didn't say that Edward would not be allowed to follow.

"It's not a shame to want to live. ”

――――[Dividing Line]――――

Lucia returned to the Castle of Osord Mountain with a sad face, don't think that she was bullied by something so powerful that she couldn't be boundless, the reason why she cried and mourned her face was entirely because of Eggies.

As it turned out, Aegis was not good at being a tour guide in addition to being good at jokes, and even having the aura bonus of 'Builder' could not save Aegis from having fun, and the whole afternoon could be said to be no fun, even to the point where Lucia was a little skeptical that Aegis was taking herself to a boring place.

If Lamech hadn't tried everything to stop him, Lucia would have complained to Ejis very seriously, right?

Overall, Eggis was successful in sabotaging Lucia's entire interest in the Academy of Magic.

In addition to these unknown things that happened on the Fear Mountain, there were also quite serious problems in the royal capital.

The battle that took place on the edge of the royal capital was quickly discovered, and unlike the low-key in the process, the traces of the battle caused a lot of turmoil throughout the royal capital, after all, it was an area where people and buildings disappeared along with it, and the fear of the unknown made this area where there was nothing left become the material of horror stories.

In such a period when the influence of the demon king has not completely subsided, this incident has made the atmosphere in the royal capital a little unusual.

However, it was not without grace that Charlotte and the King's faction had gained more than enough from it.

After discovering the change, the king's faction immediately began to advocate for the princess to be crowned early, using such a festive ceremony to remove the negative atmosphere in the royal capital. Of course, the aristocratic faction will not agree, but even if they disagree, they will not be able to change the fact that the princess is about to be crowned, compared to the royal faction, which is undoubtedly much less difficult to make the coronation earlier.

So, ten days later, in early April, the queen was crowned. (To be continued.) )
