Chapter 181 The Colorless Hunter
The road has been changed.
Even the stupidest person can notice that the road he had walked before was forcibly blocked by the wall, and the scratches left on the wall even passed through the edge of the wall. His actions were discovered - watching Curt wave his hands and slap the wall, Liqi immediately realized this.
Like the walls surrounding the surroundings, the walls blocking the passage have exactly the same burn marks, and even the patterns on the edges are completely connected together. It can be said that the walls on both sides just now folded over and combined to form this wall under the control of some mechanism.
There is no doubt that the wall is solid - so no matter how much Curt slapped, only dull echoes were heard through the wall. There was no sign of the mechanism structure that could be adjusted around the wall, and there was no sign of something moving in the cracks at the corners of the wall.
"Mr. Leinster, what's going on?"
A guard in a grey reinforced uniform walked behind Curt and asked, revealing a little doubt in his tone: "Didn't you say you had a companion entered the underground passage first? Why did we come to such a dead end according to the signs left by your companion?"
The guards following Curt were mostly puzzled on their faces, and only a few showed faint smiles as if they were about to watch the show. Without Curt introducing their identities, Liqi quickly recognized that they were members of the talent dispatch.
Even in the talent dispatching agency, they are directly obedient to Dean François' elites. After graduating from the academy, they have already thought it was their honor to join this group. Now Dean François has allowed an iron-level mercenary subordinate to the Mercenary Management Office to lead them. How could they be willing to do so?
Intrigue among members is a problem that occurs in most groups, especially in some bad interpersonal relationships. The Mercenary Management Office is mortal enemy of the talent dispatching agency, and even if a temporary community of interests is reached, it is impossible for these magicians to easily obey the command of "a mere mercenary".
Sighing. Curt pointed to the remaining scratches by the wall, which were left by Liqi with a simple spell: "Did you see the intersection of the wall? There should have been a road here, but now it has been blocked - it has been blocked in a short time, and this should be your territory."
Curt swayed around the wall with a lantern, signaling the magicians to see the scratches left by Liqi on the wall. Under the light, the scratches drifted with pale magic—even though the corners of the wall were connected closely, it seemed to seep into the wall.
No matter what the wall is blocking in front of you, the magician who uses a little bit of magic can follow its direction through the magic left on the scratch. However, in just a moment, the few guards who had previously maintained a good look on the show discovered that the scratch did pass through the wall in front of you.
"I am just an ordinary mercenary, and my magic power is just a layman's level." Curt acted like a casual spell how the spells choose. "I think since you are the elite among the elites, it should be no difficulty to solve this level of problem."
If there is no way, Curt wouldn't mind violently dismantling the wall - this is of course a downside, and he can't guarantee whether the other party will install traps behind the wall. Compared to using this unguaranteed method, it's better to find a way to mobilize the magicians who are following you.
So as soon as Curt finished speaking, several magicians who had previously looked unwilling to be instructed by him pushed away their colleagues and began to check the walls. They seemed to have a more status than other companions, and most of the people who were pushed away looked like they dared not speak out.
Merit and honor are the bait that is easiest to convince those who are obsessed with fame and fortune. People in the world say that magicians have power, honor, tradition and ideas... but they all seem to ignore one thing - most magicians are just ordinary people, and their desires are the same as ordinary people.
Looking at the academy guards who had just ignored their attitude, Curt once again confirmed that the personnel François gave him were not the core members of the small group of people under his command.
"Liqi, how are you doing there?"
Although the material barrier was blocked, the soul connection was not cut off, so Curt was not anxious: "Maybe the guys on the other side might want to destroy your mouth. But please don't use this as an excuse to kill them all. The living people are more useful to us than corpses."
Curt believes in Liqi's ability than anyone else, not only the ability to cast spells but also the knowledge she has mastered. As a spellman, Liqi has extraordinary combat power and uncontrollability at the same level as her - it is precisely because of this that it is called "disaster" by some people.
But those are already past...
The "raven" with its wings broken has been dead for a long time, and the disaster accompanied by the ravens has naturally dissipated with time. The two people who are staying in Katris are just the debris of the past, and what they long for is just a stable and unpredictable daily life.
But things often don't develop according to people's hopes, even if Curt and Liqi just want to get the simplest peaceful life. This insignificant demand seems to have become a luxury - they did not expect that they would make this hope vague.
This is a mud, the more you struggle, the deeper you fall.
The old man used the pre-stored spells from almost the entire studio to interfere without success. Curt was sure that they could not do this with Liqi. Curt was worried that Liqi had made another old problem, and accidentally used violent spells to tear the people who dared to provoke her.
"Everything is normal, I haven't seen it yet..."
Liqi originally wanted to tell Curt that she had not found an enemy nearby, but before she could finish her sentence, she was stumbled in her throat. Even if she just stood there, Liqi could clearly feel that the atmosphere in the nearby space had changed, and the subtle sense of crisis slowly climbed up.
call--
It was a while since Liqi's afterthought, something suddenly appeared in the corner of her vision. The "something" hiding in the dark was rushing towards her from the dead corner of Liqi's vision at a strange speed, and only the sudden rolling air was proving its existence.
"Sorry, it seems I have to take back my original words." I said sorry, but I couldn't hear any signs of apology in my tone - in fact, there was nothing to apologize, "Thank you, your good words, trouble will come to you soon, and I don't think it will become a big trouble in a long time."
Before she finished speaking, Liqi's body suddenly tilted. She leaned lightly to the left, and then staggered a few steps towards the loss of center of gravity. She seemed to have staggered a few steps inadvertently to avoid the sudden storm with a slight difference, and also allowed Liqi to distance herself from the thing that was coming.
"But can't I really destroy it? I don't think it's worth the same as you said."
Her cold eyes were in the direction of the gust of gust of storms, but in the dark passage, there seemed to be nothing. It was not just that vision could not capture it, heartbeat or breathing, or even reactions that all living things should have could not be found around.
However, there is indeed "what" in the direction in front of you, but it is difficult to perceive it with the usual methods. Since you have determined the other party's existence, you only need to use the same trick again - Liqi almost released magic power around in the blink of an eye and used them to explore.
Like a strong wind blowing by breath, the magic power surged into the surroundings into the air, and then quickly connected to each other, forming a "field" with Liqi as the center of the circle. The pale magic power slightly retreated, and also allowed Liqi to sense the things around her through magic power.
Using spells to hide the body does not mean disappearance. As long as the flow of air is through the flow of air, you can easily discover something that is clearly in the field of vision but cannot be discovered by conventional means. Everything has a certain volume, even the "air" itself is the same.
In the brilliance of magic power, the things that were trying to hide were nowhere to hide. Although Liqi could not see it with her eyes, the flowing air had already outlined its outline.
It was a tall body that gave the impression of a "hunter". The slightly human-shaped body was larger than Gulinius. Just standing with a slight arch, it almost filled the entire passage. The arms extending from the shoulders were thick and long, almost as long as Liqi's height. The part of the hook that grew from the apex was longer than her waist, enough to cut her into two pieces in the blink of an eye.
Although it seemed huge and bulky, its movements were silent and swift. Almost the moment Liqi used her magic to see its existence, it launched an attack. The colorless claws cut through the stagnant air and stabbed in front of her with the fishy smell as before.
The advantage of tall figure is undoubtedly revealed at this time. Just taking one step, it surpasses the space where Liqi must run forward several steps before she can pass through. Although its body is colorless and transparent, it cannot eliminate the pressure brought by volume. Her huge body presses towards Liqi like a wall.
At that time, the sharp hook claws broke through the wind, and Liqi could even feel the strong wind brought by the hook claws blowing on her face.
But this attack ultimately failed. Liqi kicked her legs suddenly towards the ground. Her thin body was immediately bounced up under the action of recoil force and flew backwards. The straight stab of the straight stab contained power, but it could not escape the range of the arm. Before the hunter's nail tip touched Liqi, she quickly pulled the distance away. The old straight stab could not continue, so she could only watch Liqi escape. (To be continued, please search for Astronomy, the novel is better and faster!
