Chapter 384 Internal
readx; Cott had wanted to find a solitary magician and get information from his mouth about Sein Democra's ongoing plans.
But after carefully observing the actions of the spells, Curt quickly gave up on this idea - this idea was too risky. Because he knew very clearly that as long as he dared to act like this, the attacked spell would inevitably attract the attention of other enemies.
Without exception, these spells were all affected by the "chaotic bloodline", and bloodlines from the same source lurked in each person's body. This made them connect into a whole, and as long as one of them had an abnormality, they would be immediately discovered by the person who controlled them.
Not long after the monster attacked the magician, they noticed the abnormality of their companions and immediately began to organize human searches.
Curt didn't know how they got in touch, but he felt that the magic of these magicians was connected with the bloodline in their bodies. Their power came from the "chaotic" that was integrated into these blood, which also made them a member of a certain whole.
This is somewhat similar to the "soul connection" used by Liqi to connect her and Curt, but it is decisively different in the way of implantation. Cot and Liqi only use magic to connect each other so that some of the knowledge and memory can be simply shared; while Sein Democra is different, he may have built a huge tree map to make himself the top operator.
Is it a spider web or a pyramid? Although such a metaphor may be a bit inappropriate, Curt cannot find a more suitable way to describe it - he is not clear about the specific description in the theory of spells, and can only describe it in his own sense.
He peeked at the spells gathered at the edge of the ruins. The magic power that oozed out of their bodies clearly told Curt that they were all connected by a special connection. Logically, these spells should have long noticed the changes in their bodies, but they didn't care.
It was such an incredible situation. Sein Democra connected the power of a large number of magicians through the "chaotic bloodline" and allowed him to gather in a reservoir of magic. Various magic powers flowed in the network he built, so that those who use it could master the power beyond the past.
The magicians who use these magical powers do not seem to care about where their power comes from. It is enough to just be able to use this magic at will. They should have known for a long time that the "chaotic bloodline" was squeezed out of the Slots' body by Sein Democra, but they willingly serve the magician and enjoy the powerful blood stains he provided.
Justice or kindness has nothing to do with them, because from the very beginning it did not exist within their considerations—they only have their own interests in their eyes. As long as they are profitable, it doesn't matter what they do, so they are quite willing to work for Sein Democra.
Seeing the figures of the magicians hidden in the mist that emitted glimmer, Curt tiptoed away from the small room in a corner of the ruins. Several blocks nearby had been captured by the enemy's magicians, and in addition to the squad patrolling the streets, there were also some key places guarded by the enemy.
Curt hid in a corner of the ruins of the street, peering at the barricades seized by the enemy near the main road - the nearby houses had been burned by the enemy shortly after the battle began. There was no value in protecting the nearby neighborhoods, and the guards who made this judgment quickly retreated.
However, this barricade, which should have been abandoned for a long time, became the enemy's stronghold, and a large amount of combat power was left as a guard. What's even more strange is that the existence guarding near the barricade was not a magician, but a creature that was exactly the same as the monsters that were killed by Curt before.
They seemed to be assigned a task to stay here by the spells in charge of control. These "guardians" who looked like skinned gorillas were concentrated in groups around obstacles piled up near the barricade. Although their thinking was not as clear as humans, their perception was better. Even Curt spied around them from afar, it seemed that they had alerted them.
A slightly larger monster looked at the direction he was, and immediately called on the other monsters around him and asked them to investigate the direction where Curt was. At the same time, it seemed to have used some method to notify the magicians in the distance. Curt soon heard a series of rapid footsteps behind him. Those who were still investigating the scene of his murdered colleagues had rushed to the place where something strange happened.
It was beyond Curt's expectation that the enemy would actually discover it in this way. The other party seemed to have some special way of easily distinguishing one's own place. No matter what it was, he had been discovered by the enemy's hound. If he didn't leave immediately, he would probably have to fight.
Just estimate it a little, the remaining time may be less than a quarter of an hour.
Curt was not worried about the enemy's strength and was already ready for battle - but now it is obviously not suitable for fighting with the enemy. The nearby area seems to have been transformed into a stronghold by the enemy. If you are alerting the enemy now, the information you could have obtained will disappear.
The monsters were approaching his hiding position. The spells were also slowly approaching, and there was not much time for him to think. At this point, Curt's gaze immediately looked at the shaft where the lid was disappearing, which was the road leading to the city sewer.
It was soon after that, before the enemy was about to reach his position, Curt jumped and jumped out of the city's sewer. This was obviously telling the enemy that someone had escaped, but Curt was also confident to avoid the enemy's pursuit in the intricate piping system.
"But there are even places like this... it's really surprising."
However, the fact once again exceeded his expectations. The enemy not only existed on the ground, but even the nearby sewers were filled with the breath of enemies. Obviously, the neighborhoods near this road were transformed into strongholds a long time ago and were used quite thoroughly.
It seems that Sein Democra's plan has been prepared for a long time ago, and both him and others who have been exploited are working hard to succeed. He Curt had thought that the other party was just a reckless man who took risks, but it was not until he saw the sewer used by the enemy that he realized that the spell was not only crazy, but also worked hard for his crazy ideas.
Curt couldn't help but want to blame what the spells garrison in the city were doing so that they could be penetrated so deeply by the enemy. No matter where Curt went, traces of careful cleaning could be seen everywhere. Obviously, many people have used these roads recently.
Not long after, Curt arrived in a lobby that looked like a kind of lounge, with more than a dozen spells resting inside. A subtle aura lingered inside the hall, covering the spells in blood-colored robes in a layer of mist.
The lounge was built underground and was already airtight, and the door leading to the interior was locked tightly. The fog in the hall was isolated from the inside, and the erratic atmosphere and the outside world seemed to be two worlds that were difficult to interfere with.
Looking closely, the appearance of these magicians was also very strange. Almost all of them were immersed in a slightly drunk state, and they could no longer distinguish between reality and illusion. Curt could not assert what was going on, but he vaguely felt that something was wrong with the mental state of these magicians.
He remembered that Liqi once said that a long time ago, some schools that had been denounced as heretics by the current spells had used some kind of potion to improve their casting level. They named this behavior "scented incense", ignited suspicious spices in the closed room, allowing the spirit of the spell to escape from the constraints, and feel the power of the superior world... and try to gain powerful power in this way.
To put it bluntly, it is to abuse some drugs that will affect the spirit, hoping to improve the individual's mental state. As for whether it is effective, there is no conclusive evidence to investigate now, but the bodies of those magicians have been damaged in an invertible way.
From the only documentary description, those spells who have performed "scented" behavior have become fragile and have difficulty in carrying out difficult work for a long time. At the same time, they even have hallucinations, and some of the spells even lose their ability to live normally due to mental disorders.
Although Curt did not see the content described in the literature with his own eyes, he inexplicably felt that the conditions of the magicians in front of him were somewhat similar to theirs. Now they can only call them "boring people", but the magic and vitality in their bodies are still supplying the network continuously.
In terms of the degree of magic power utilization, even to the arrogant Liqi, she must admit that her level is not as good as this crazy magician. Although the magic capacity in her body is much higher than that of the other party, he turned a large amount of magic power from others into an inhuman existence.
At least Liqi dared not let so much messy magic into her body, because it was too dangerous. However, Sein Democra used these magicians to spread the bloodline he created to all parts of the city of Katris, and used this as a basis to monitor the movements inside the city.
It can almost be said that it can move the whole body by a single blow. Now the abnormal magic powers scattered in the city will be discovered by the magician immediately if there is a slight abnormality. The organization that claims to be the "Eye of True Vision" may have thought that this spell was designed for them.
But they are just chess pieces of Sein Democra. (To be continued.)
