Returning from the abyss

Chapter 494 Message
An ice arrow shot through the body of a ghost, and the ghost dissipated in an instant, but the significance was not very great.

Because there are hundreds of ghosts visible to the naked eye.

"Oh, bad." Misha set up the next arrow, his tone was still relaxed, but Kaios next to him looked serious.

"The Magic Council didn't respond. I'm afraid something went wrong." Kaios pointed his finger on the sword, and some of the fading thunder and lightning gathered again. "We are alone now."

"What's Jaze doing? She's the protector of the area, isn't she?"

"The actions of the book-burning official must be helped by the council, and they must know who the protectors are ambush in the outer twelve districts. I think the book-burning official will probably send out a emperor to deal with the Opal area. After all, the black Magician." Kaios slashed out lightning with his sword, which was very effective against ghosts, and relieved a lot of pressure on the wandering mages who were still fighting desperately around.

"Isn't the school going to do it?"

"Ewalang's protection of students makes it difficult for the school to send the main force to go out to participate in the extermination. The other party is also sure of this, and has not attacked the school so far. As long as they keep not attacking the school, then all schools must be in [whether the other party] Will attack the school the next moment] wavering on this issue. Not everyone has the support ability of Parcival."

"Sure enough, the incidents caused by people who know Ewalang very well are different." Misha charged up, and the tip of the arrow began to gather cold currents, gradually forming a huge ice ball.

"Are you going to charge?"

"It's not good to be stuck here. People like me must find a terrain that is good for us."

The ice arrows shot out, turned into countless ice cones in the air, and sprinkled towards the group of ghosts.

Pengshan Yuanzi was sitting in the shop of Penglai House. Although the elders in the family had recovered, a day or two was not enough for them to return to the front to take charge, so Pengshan Yuanzi naturally took over the business first.

It's just that the actions of the book burning officials once again left the shop empty.

In fact, it is normal to close doors and suspend operations like this now.But who made Pengshan Yuanzi's original intention not to run a store?Now she has let most of the employees go home temporarily, and those who stay here are all Pengshan family members, the most loyal ones.

The censer lit in the lobby billowed with smoke, and Futoko Pengshan held up the teacup. When she made this action, the surroundings turned into a black and white hell.

"Why did my niece do this?" A man about forty years old, with a short beard, and wearing the uniform of an onmyoji walked into the store.

"Uncle He Mao." Pengshan Yuanzi smiled at the other party, "Now that it's you, why don't you show your real identity?"

"That can't be done, who knows if this will make you send me directly to the underworld?" The man laughed, "Looking at the situation, it is true that you are the most dangerous person as Bai Guihong said."

"There's no need to bluff at this time." Pengshan said with a polite smile, "Hyakkihiro's character, if he wants to deal with me, he will definitely come to the door himself. Although I think I have some strategic skills , but it is not widely known, and few people know that I am dangerous."

"Oh?"

Pengshan turned his gaze and landed on the man's saber: "It's not the standard of the He Mao clan, nor is it a weapon commonly used by onmyojis. You killed a friend of mine."

"I think those of you who are focusing on the entire Ewalang, these small things that happened in Topa District should not be taken seriously." The man raised his hand and pressed it on the handle, "Unfortunately, although the Penglai House There is a magic book inheritance, but you definitely don’t have the ability to read the magic book, so this field is only displayed through the knowledge of the rubbings and your own ability.”

"It sounds like you're sure you can beat me." Pengshan Yuanzi got up, "The knowledge passed down by He Mao's family is indeed richer than Pengshan's, but you may not be able to get it all."

"I don't need it." The man slowly pulled out the knife, a layer of dark light was refracted to the surroundings as the blade was pulled out, and the black and white lines were quickly cut off.It has such power before it is fully charged, which is obviously higher than the level of ordinary magic.

"You chose the side that is doomed to fail." Pengshan Yuanzi clasped his hands.

"This kind of villain that is not under our control will of course fail, but we won't keep it until we are killed by Qiu Hou." The man laughed, "Sometimes joining the villain's side will make the task easier to complete, after all, we can To be the villain's subordinate must have abundant resources and strength."

"Makes sense."

At the same time Pengshan Yuanzi said these three words, the man had already pulled out the knife, and the dark light shone from the tip of the knife, smashing all the black and white space around him, and the color returned to his surroundings, and this In an instant, the knife chopped up Pengshan Yuanzi who was about seven steps away.

"Intangible?"

Pengshan melted into the space with countless lines, and the man was not annoyed. After all, the opponent was also a famously difficult guy, and it was expected that he missed a hit.The bright red mandala spread on the ground that had lost its color, instantly turning the entire hall into a sea of ​​red flowers.

"Yin Yang · Changyue."

The knife cut a round of moonlight all over his body, and the wind rolled up from the flat ground and rushed into the air.The black and white roof was also broken, and it was clearly daytime, but the pale demon moon in the gray sky could be seen through the broken ceiling.

"Mr. He Mao Zongsheng, although he has acquired the power of the magic book, he still uses his best Yin Yang technique."

Pengshan Yuanzi stood on the roof, looking down at the man through the opened hole.The black safari on her body rattled violently in the wind, with a strange sense of rhythm.

"There's no reason to give up one's strengths to learn one's temporary stuff, right?" He Maozongsheng laughed, "Under the moon, even human beings will turn into monsters. How dare you just stand there?"

"Turning a human into a demon, and then using the tactics to kill the demon, doesn't sound like an upright act. But...it's okay." Pengshan Yuanzi raised his hand, holding four exquisitely crafted weapons between her fingers. model sword.

"Please enshrine the gods, but also borrow the power of the gods. Punish, cut, trap, and kill. Four swords are in formation."

As she murmured softly, she threw the four model swords into the air, and the four swords rose in the wind, turning into four normal-sized swords and pinning them around the Penglai House, and a strong oppressive force immediately flooded the Penglai House. , He Mao Zongsheng's expression changed slightly, and he spat out a mouthful of blood.

"Excellent." He praised instead.

Pengshan Yuanzi frowned.

"But even if you set up such a formation, you still can't get over the hurdle in your heart, right?" He Mao Zongsheng wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, "Watanabe Yuanko! No matter how meticulously you arrange the death formation, you can't get over it." There will definitely be a way out! This is your kindness, but it is also your weakness!"

In an instant, countless bright red flowers drowned He Mao Zongsheng's figure, and the flowers passed through the roof, dancing in the wind.Pengshan Yuanzi pressed the suppression of the four swords, pinched his fingers and made an attack.But what she and He Mao Zongsheng learned in this scene are basically the same, and the inheritance of He Mao's family in the orthodox Onmyoji family is indeed a higher level than that of Pengshan.

The only way out in this formation cannot escape the eyes of He Mao Zongsheng, who has already taken advantage of the momentum and rushed to the roof amidst the wind of flowers.

"Report the dead bird, horizontal one character."

Appearing from the sea of ​​flowers is He Mao Zongsheng, who is like a giant bird flying down from the sky. The knife in his hand screams, and there is something ghostly about it. At the same time, the killing formula in Pengshan Yuanzi's hands also When he made a move, the sword energy enough to smash He Maozongsheng's corpse into thousands of pieces came from all directions——

"Hahaha!"

He Mao Zongsheng's clothes were torn apart by the sword qi, but he was not worried. None of those sword qi hit him correctly, which meant that his judgment was not wrong. The next way out!
But his knife cut open the opponent's body correctly, and under the constant moonlight, he was absolutely sure that he had hit the main body.

"The victory and defeat are already divided."

The black and white field is fading, and the sword force suppressing the Quartet is also disappearing, all of which shows that the caster is dead.

He Mao Zongsheng stood still in front of the fallen Pengshan Yuanzi and retracted his knife.

"It is a beautiful death that suits you." He bowed slightly, and then took out a paper crane, driven by magic, and the paper crane flew out.

Just as he turned to leave, he suddenly caught a glimpse of a ray of fire, which was the direction his paper crane just flew away from.Immediately, the message that he had sealed in the paper crane came: [To Mr. Orris: The troubles of the Pengshan family have been cured.Sincerely, He Mao. 】

"...What?" He Mao's footsteps stopped immediately, and he looked back, Pengshan Yuanzi's body was indeed still there, and her skills were indeed disappearing.

He soon realized his failure, but still did not understand the reason for his failure.Both the moonlight and the flowers have lost their color at this moment, and black and white lines are flying around. It wasn't until this moment that He Mao Zongsheng realized that what surrounded him were not mandala flowers, but lines. made of butterflies.

"The so-called 'one glimpse of the whole leopard' is actually wrong in most cases. People's cognition based on the first impression is a big deception to themselves, especially the real information. Use the truth Misleading is far more difficult to detect than deception caused by lies."

After the cigarettes dissipated, Pengshan took out new incense from the box, opened the lid and filled it.At the door lay He Mao Zongsheng's chopped-up corpse.

"I did leave a way... But instead of leaving a way of life in a dead way, I left a way of life in a way of life. If it wasn't for someone with great malice, I wouldn't have stepped into it." She raised her hand Starting, Wu He beside him handed out the saber that he untied from He Mao Zongsheng's waist.

"Although I don't know which friend it is, at least let me worship here. The funeral ritual book handed down by Pengshan's family should not humiliate your death." Pengshan put his hands together, closed his eyes, and started Muttered a prayer.

At the same time, several people also received a message from Butterfly.

Lu Ning and Bai Meigui left the Crow Hotel first.

"Your brother really doesn't follow you?" Lu Ning was a little surprised.

"We are thieves, and it's common for us to go alone, but I'm surprised they let you, an apprentice, leave a safe place."

"Pierre can't control my business. As for Soygo, they hope that I can cause some trouble." Lu Ning is very relaxed, "This scene didn't impose many restrictions on me, which is a good thing. Speaking of it, How many times have the two of us really fought side by side?"

"I probably didn't have that chance when I was promoted, and your avatars are more difficult to deal with one by one." Bai Meigui glanced at Lu Ning, "But this time, we can give it a try."

"Well, let's re-clarify the goal. We don't need, and we can't deal with the inner ghost in the council. So we just need to expose his existence. On this basis, reduce the subordinates he created as much as possible " said Lu Ning.

"The leader of the Book Burning Officer, the Royal Magician, and Heinz... right?"

"These three people are on the list, besides them, there are tourists from the hostile side."

A look of joy appeared on Bai Meigui's face.

"Finally can you let go of your hands and feet to kill people?"

Lu Ning nodded.

"I can't wait~"

At this moment, the two of them suddenly found that there were people running over from another street, they were all strangers... No, Lu Ning had some impression of one of them, as if she had seen it before.

"Hey! You!" The man hurriedly waved his hands, "I happened to meet you here! Listen to me! Heinz planned all this! He killed innocent people and even attacked the parliament, we have to find a way to stop him , or escape from here!"

"Who are you?" Bai Meigui stopped in her tracks and squinted at the two of them.

"My name is... Wumeng." The man opened his mouth, and finally said briefly, "I was traveling with a mage, but not long ago, he was killed because he saw some spell cast by Heinz I escaped quickly, and was chased and killed by the book burning officer along the way. Fortunately, I met this gentleman...Excuse me, what's your name?"

"I'm a patrolling guard sent by the council to help the six districts. You can call me Orris." The man is tall and mighty, and he really looks like a guard. "It's just that we don't have enough people. At first, I thought that yesterday's incident would be over and I would feel at ease, so I separated to deal with the aftermath of various places, but I didn't expect that another big incident happened at night, and it was difficult to assemble."

"Do you know Captain Chen?" Lu Ning asked suddenly.

Orris froze for a moment, then nodded: "That's right, but I haven't heard about you...Captain Chen hasn't mentioned it to me either."

"No, I heard about you two from another friend, Delia... don't know if you remember."

Orris was stunned, and then showed a sad look: "So that's the case, please forgive me."

"We are going to arrest the murderer who murdered her. Mr. Orris, there is a problem within the parliament. I think the place that needs support most is the Violet Library. We have to find out the situation there first and let the emperors You have to have a chance to make a move.”

"That's right, Heinz traveled to many places and fought many famous duels when he was young, and none of us can stop him." Orris nodded, "But it's not easy to walk this way, Burning Books It's not just luck that the senses are holding back Ewalang, there must be a factor of strength."

"But they have to allocate enough people to target Percival of Jiaessen, don't they?" White Rose said aside, "I can't think of anything that can restrict that sage, but it means that we will meet If you don’t have the top combat strength of the Book Burning Officer, there is still a good chance of rushing to the library.”

"Then let's go now." Orris nodded.

"I still want to inform more..." Wumeng wanted to speak, but Orris shook his head, "If you can inform someone who can fight against Emperor St. Heinz, I will not stop you, but you can find that kind of person ?"
