Kato Megumi wants to learn magic

"Pay attention to the spatial fluctuations around you, and be careful not to overlook the past."

"Yes, I understand, Master."

After getting the answer from the book spirit, Kato Megumi nodded, took out the staff, and walked towards the hospital gate vigilantly.

The automatically opening and closing sliding door seemed to have been deformed and lost its function due to the impact of external force. It was barely hanging on the door frame, shaking.

As Kato Megumi entered, the dim hospital lobby was once again filled with bright light.

The reception desk facing the hospital gate was already empty. The tiles on the cement-poured desk had broken and fallen off, and a black, unidentified object was standing on it, like some heavy dirt fished out of a sewer.

Various messy objects were scattered on the ground. On the left were rows of plastic waiting seats, which were covered with all kinds of dust and shoe machines. On the right was the registration area, but judging from the broken glass on it and the mess inside, it was in a mess.

Two elevators dedicated to the hospital are located near the waiting area, only a few steps apart. Next to the elevator is a safety passage. Under the crooked indicator light is a half-open, unlocked sliding door. Following the light, one can see stairs going up and down from the outside.

In addition, there are passages on the left and right sides of the hall. Judging from the signs above, one leads to Building A (brain department) and the other leads to Building C (psychiatry department). Does that mean that Building B is where the reception hall is now?

Although there seemed to be no zombies at present, as a hospital, it was also a hard-hit area for zombie outbreaks before the apocalypse. She didn't believe that there were no other dangerous mutated species here.

The hospital is not big, but it is not small either. It would take some effort to search through everything.

Kato Megumi frowned and cast detection magic to scan the entire hospital.

However, as soon as the magic was activated, Kato Megumi felt like she was stuck in a swamp. The magic that should have been smooth was severely hindered, just like her feet were stuck in the mud. The more she moved, the deeper she sank. The same was true for the magic controlled by mental power. The further she extended it, the more it seemed as if an invisible net was wrapping around her, pulling, pushing, and obstructing her, making it impossible to extend the detection range.

In the end, it could only barely detect a range of ten meters around it.

Seeing this, Kato Megumi knew that detection magic was useless, and had no choice but to take it back.

At the same time, he asked Shu Ling what was going on.

"It's probably because of the disordered space. I didn't feel any other power. Detection magic is essentially based on the characteristics of space and distance and the use of mental power to detect. It's inevitable that I can't perform it when encountering such a disordered space."

"Not only that, in fact, there are many dangerous places in the magic world that are not so easy to detect, whether it is detection magic or mental power, so you have to get used to this situation, Master."

Modudu explained.

After all, the places where magicians go and exit are basically all kinds of places that mortals cannot enter. Either the power is chaotic, the magnetic field is mutated, or there are special powerful dangerous creatures. Therefore, they often encounter the situation faced by Kato Megumi.

After hearing Modudu's explanation, Kato Megumi had no choice but to give up.

"It seems we have to search them one by one."

After looking at the two passages on the left and right, Kato Megumi decided to start searching from Building A first, and then continue to Buildings BC.

Magic nodes can appear in any space within the hospital.

It could be inside the room, inside the wall, or even underground.

The range of her perception is only about five meters, so if she wants to find the space node, she needs to explore the entire hospital.

She walked through the corridor on the left and passed the departments beside her. The sound of footsteps accompanied her walking, emitting waves of ethereal and creepy echoes.

Da da

Da da da……

The light brought by magic illuminates every corner around her, and the view is unobstructed. However, Kato Megumi is like a tourist exploring a haunted house with a candle, surrounded by the sound of footsteps in the corridor. The empty and silent darkness engulfs the light and pulls it into this strange space.

There was darkness everywhere, and except for the center where Kato Megumi was, there was no place covered by light.

The half-open doors in the corridor seemed to respond to her footsteps, creaking in rhythmic accompaniment.

crunch--

crunch--

The light gradually fades with distance. The departments far away from the light are like big dark mouths, opening their terrifying mouths to devour people, waiting for their prey to approach. It is eerie and terrifying, making people feel inexplicably uncomfortable.

However, as Kato Megumi approached, the light gradually became brighter, and those dark openings were slowly illuminated, revealing the dusty office inside. The eerie feeling was like a mirage created by the unreasonable fear in people's hearts. It was just the suspicion and fear in their hearts that were at work, and there was nothing to be afraid of.

However, behind him, as the light faded away, the huge mouths of the abyss shrouded in darkness reappeared, and a cool chill spread.

The fear in my heart seemed to spread again, over and over again.

If other people encountered such a scene, they would probably be frightened and tremble with fear.

But now here is a person, a book and a flower.

Regarding this strange thing, one person was calm, one was well-informed and not surprised, and the other was a different species and could not resonate with it.

This is the most dangerous and terrifying place in the movies. Ordinary people would be scared to death, fearing that a monster would come out of the darkness and attack them and eat them alive, so they would want to escape from here immediately.

After all, human beings' fear of darkness and the unknown is ingrained in their instincts.

But for Kato Megumi, the scene in front of her didn't even feel right at all.

She just felt strange, why this corridor hadn't come to an end yet?

Da da da--

The footsteps echoing in the corridor became louder and louder. The corridor was obviously not long, but it seemed to have expanded dozens of times. I didn't know when, my ears were filled with the sound of footsteps.

It’s as if there are countless inexplicable weirdnesses in the invisible depths of darkness, watching you and following you.

clatter--

Kato Megumi stopped immediately.

At that moment, the sounds in my ears disappeared instantly, without even a trace of echo.

At this time, even Kato Megumi noticed what was happening here.

"The sound is wrong, and the road is wrong..."

Kato Megumi clenched the scepter and suddenly stopped in silence, then murmured.

The endless corridor is like a destination that cannot be reached. No matter how far you go, you will never reach the end. It is always enveloped in thick and quiet darkness.

Kato Megumi pondered for a moment and wanted to ask the book spirit what it thought, but soon she discovered that the magic book on the bracelet was missing!

Kato Megumi opened her mouth slightly, her eyes flickering, and she was extremely surprised.

"How could it be? The bracelet has always been on my wrist, how could it disappear?"

It had clearly been hanging on her hand and she didn't feel anything unusual, so how could it disappear right before her eyes out of nowhere?

You have to know that I have signed a contract with the magic book...

Kato Megumi tried to use the soul contract to sense the location of the magic book, but the response she got was nothingness, with no reaction at all.

Pursing her lips, she looked at the darkness around her, and couldn't help but calm down and fall into thought.

It's impossible for the book spirit to go away on its own, and it's also impossible for it to be taken away by someone, otherwise I would have noticed it long ago.

Or is it that the person in the dark is so powerful that he can easily take away the magic book right under his nose?

How is that possible? If there really is such a person, he must be very powerful, so why would he be so secretive?

There were so many thoughts in her mind... Kato Megumi thought about it over and over again but couldn't figure out when it disappeared from her hand.

Could it have fallen to the ground?

Kato Megumi thought hesitantly.

She raised the magic light ball in her hand and slowly turned her head. The light followed her movement, and the light and shadow under her feet slowly moved...

Kato Megumi continued walking the same way she came without changing her expression.

However, after walking only ten steps, he found a familiar piece of jewelry on the ground in front of him. It was the small magic book strung together with the silver bracelet.

Because the silver bracelet fell to the ground and was stained with dust, it lost its usual crystal clear starlight. The dark gray magic book also became dusty and not as exquisite as usual.

Kato Megumi's movement of reaching out to pick it up suddenly stopped.

You have to know that your jewelry is a magic prop, how can ordinary dust cover up the light that should belong to you? You have to know that even ordinary magic props are at least spotless and free of dust and water droplets.

Magic items, no matter they are ordinary or legendary, possess extraordinary magical power. The magical power surrounding them will repel the approach of foreign debris in daily life. On the one hand, it is the exclusivity of the magical power itself, and on the other hand, it is also the inherent characteristic given to each magic item by the magician in order to prevent the dust, water droplets, flames, destruction or dust that can be seen everywhere from covering the magic items.

Therefore, it is impossible for magic items to become obscured by themselves, not to mention being easily stained by dirt and dust like ordinary items.

Kato Megumi's heart moved, and a gleam of light flashed across her obsidian eyes.

Besides, how come I was thinking about the jewelry falling, and then I found it just a few steps back? Isn't this too much of a coincidence?

Putting aside the fact that the bracelet has the special feature of not falling off, even if it does fall off, there will be a sound or a prompt from the book spirit.

However, although the bracelet in front of her looked exactly the same as her own, Kato Megumi did not feel the slightest sense of familiarity from it. Looking at the thing in front of her, it was as if she was looking at something strange. Except for the fact that it looked exactly the same, whether it was for herself or other reasons, it felt like a clumsy imitation.

"Modudu?"

Kato Megumi opened her mouth tentatively, but there was no response.

"really……"

Zombie World: Chapter 583 Chapter Illusions and Corrosion

Kato Megumi stood up, her eyes turned cold, and she instantly chanted a spell.

"The burning and endless flames bring both hope and destruction."

The green flame, the size of a fingernail, suddenly pounced on the bracelet at his feet, just like ice cream melting in the hot summer. The fake object in front of him was swallowed by the flame without any resistance, and was easily surrounded and burned, and then turned into nothingness.

But Kato Megumi was not happy at all.

As the fake object turned to ashes, nothing changed, whether it was the endless corridor, the silent thick darkness, or the bracelet that disappeared in his hand.

The blue flame completed its mission and floated back again, landing on Kato Megumi's index finger. It floated back and forth, swaying left and right, as if it was acting coquettishly, or as if it was complaining about not being full.

Kato Megumi frowned and looked at the burnt marks.

Suddenly, she noticed something and turned around.

Suddenly, countless ornaments appeared on the empty ground. Some of them fell on the ground, some hung on the door handles, and some were stuck on the walls. They appeared densely in front of my eyes and occupied the entire corridor.

In a trance, Kato Megumi seemed to feel that the corridor in front of her was like a huge monster, and the countless ornaments in front of her were like its eyes, looking at her greedily and mockingly, as if mocking, and as if provoking.

Laugh at your own ignorance and challenge your own incompetence.

For some reason, Kato Megumi suddenly felt a little angry. She pursed her lips, and the green flame floating in her hand instantly changed its form, turning into a huge net in the air, and suddenly pounced on the densely packed jewelry in front of her.

The blue flame instantly turned into a monstrous disaster, illuminating the darkness and turning the corridor into an endless sea of ​​fire. The flickering light became hot and bright. In a trance, Kato Megumi heard screams. As the flames raged, the bracelets suddenly turned into a burnt eye, struggling and screaming shrilly.

Seeing this, Kato Hui's anger suddenly dissipated, and she felt relieved, and a sense of pride and arrogance arose.

Mocking yourself? Humph, how about I send you to hell?

The corners of her mouth were slightly curved, her pair of clear big eyes were slightly narrowed, and her whole expression was filled with the owner's happiness. Kato Megumi's mood visibly improved.

The green flame turned everything into nothingness, then returned to the size of a fingertip, and came back towards Kato Megumi slowly, looking silly and cute, as if she was full.

Just as Kato Megumi stretched out her index finger and waited for the fire eye to return to her fingertips, the flame slowly fell back to her fingertips.

Suddenly, a light flashed in Kato Megumi's eyes, her pursed lips slightly opened, and cold words with invisible mysterious waves descended into this dark and long corridor.

"In the endlessly cold land, ice and snow are the queen's wrath. You who are playing with people's hearts, bear the wrath of ice and snow!"

The white, slightly chilly magic circle, carrying cold air, unfolded at Kato Megumi's fingertips. The pentagram magic circle slowly rotated, accompanied by endless chill. Countless ice and snow, wrapped in ice spikes, pierced out from the palm-sized magic circle like a sharp blade in the wind, and shot straight towards the blue flame, breaking it in half in just an instant.

At the same time, Kato Megumi mobilized her mental strength and stabbed a certain point with force.

click-

In an instant, the world was like a mirror, gradually breaking apart. The corridor in front of me and the surrounding scenery suddenly had countless cracks and were in a state of imminent collapse.

click-

The cracks are spreading...

Click, click, click——

The sound of breaking was like the ice surface that could not bear the weight and finally met its own end.

In the end, just as falsehood can never defeat reality, this created false world was eventually destroyed by Kato Megumi, and ushered in her final highlight.

In just a moment, the whole world was like a shattered mirror, turning into nothingness.

I heard the concerned voice of the book spirit in my ears.

"Master, are you okay?!"

Kato Megumi came to her senses, looked at the book spirit jumping up and down beside her with concern, and the little white flower beside her chirping to express its confusion, and comforted her.

"Don't worry, it's nothing..."

Kato Megumi patted the little white flower on the head, and then looked at the changing scene around her.
