Chapter 254 Behind the Scenes (Ask for Recommendation Votes)
——Asking for recommendation votes, I was almost pushed to the list last week~
………………………………………………………………………………
"Maybe we relaxed at that time, and the monster saw a rare opportunity, so he wanted to try to dominate Sandra, as long as he succeeded, he could make us die unclearly. And at that time, Mr. Evans was trying to contact the outside world, and once you found out that you couldn't talk to Mr. Gaston, you could quickly realize that he was not completely dead." Charlotte expressed her opinion, "In addition, according to Bill's description, this monster is related to greed, hatred, jealousy and other emotions, and they often cannot control their own reason, and they will not weigh the odds of success between risky attacks and hidden opportunities."
Although he couldn't cast spells and run yet, he could walk very smoothly with a little help from Charlotte's power: "If it's just this one thing, Charlotte, your explanation is completely fine, and even the most in line with the truth of the matter, but don't you think there are still many doubts?"
The two girls walking a little ahead heard Lucian's words, Sandra searched around guardly, constantly recalling the previous scene in her mind, while Susan cried and said in a trembling voice: "Mr. Evans, you, don't scare me, isn't that monster dead yet? You have all reached this level!"
Obviously, a little bit of wind at this time can scare Susan, who is riddled with nightmares, faint.
"Indeed, the monster's behavior pattern is somewhat contradictory to what we cannot understand." Charlotte affirmed Lucian's problem.
Susan, who heard his words, her knees went weak and she almost couldn't support her body, and she finally managed to stand still.
Charlotte paused for a moment and continued: "It can be seen from many travelogues and notes that the demons of the abyss and some nightmare monsters themselves are chaotic.
"Huh, Mr. Charlotte, you, you scared me to death just now." Susan couldn't help but complain, Charlotte actually stopped halfway through speaking, making herself think that the monster would still appear, and almost scared herself to death.
Lucian was not angry that his suspicions were refuted by Charlotte, and nodded gently in agreement: "The demon types of the abyss are many times greater than hell, especially in the Bone Wasteland, where new undead races are created every day, and it is normal for us not to know each other."
Susan breathed a long sigh of relief, even Mr. Evans gave up his suspicions, the monster was really dead!
But Lucian changed his subject: "But no matter how chaotic the demon is, it is impossible to miss the opportunity to kill us, according to the strength he showed in the bondage, when the apprentice hall attacked for the first time, he had enough ability to kill me directly, whether it was a malicious transfiguration or a shadow well, I have no corresponding magic to prevent it for the time being. As a result, it used methods similar to the four-ring magic 'Evil Gaze' and the five-ring magic 'cardiac arrest' that directly attacked the soul and spirit, and under the protection of the anti-death barrier, the latter could not directly kill me."
Speaking of this, Lucian began to review in his heart, he was currently only specializing in elements and astrology, and he did not have enough magic research on other factions, and when faced with souls, spirits, curses, and strange and extremely changing attacks, he did not have enough magical means to defend.
"Maybe when attacking through a mirror, it can't use malicious shapeshifting, etc., it can only send out attacks on spirits and souls, for example, it later tried to dominate me." Sandra has her own understanding of this, and it is very realistic. When using other extraordinary powers, the monster was not in the mirror.
Lucian smiled slightly: "It seems that the discussion will help solve the doubts, thank you for answering my question, but there are still two last questions, why is the restraint room arranged like that? Mr. Beltrand should not have used the restraint room for that ridiculous summoning ceremony, and Bill could not be qualified to borrow Mr. Beltrang's exclusive restraint room."
"Also, why did that Special Summon ritual parchment happen to be seen by us? Since Bill controls everything in the castle and has the eerie power of monsters, why would he think of burning the books? Okay, let's just assume that he wants to hide the council and continue to use his status as a magic apprentice, but do you think such a monster will only burn most of the things, and you don't notice that a small part of it has fallen under the desk?"
Charlotte explained with some difficulty: "The first problem may be that Bill wanted to disguise things as Mr. Beltrand did, so he arranged the restraints like that, and later used the restraints to delay time when he failed to attack us. The second question, I don't think Bill thought about burning the parchment, but in the heat of battle, there were flames burning everywhere, and the parchment was accidentally ignited."
"As for being seen by us, it can only be said that it is indeed a coincidence." Sandra took Susan into the corridor where there was energy.
Lucian took out his pocket watch from his pocket with his right hand and looked at it: "Then I have no doubts, it's 5:25, and the high-level magician who will handle the follow-up affairs will arrive around 40 minutes, let's wait patiently."
"Okay, Mr. Evans." Charlotte, Sandra, and Susan answered at the same time.
Although Lucian's every question was explained, a series of questions still made Sandra and Susan palpitate, making Charlotte very vigilant, so they did not lift their defenses, the colorful energy orb was still swirling above Sandra and Susan's heads, and the spell absorption wall protected Lucian and Charlotte together.
After walking some distance in this corridor, a house with an open door appeared next to it, Susan subconsciously looked over, and then snorted softly.
Lucian and the others followed her gaze and saw that the room was empty and there was nothing, so Sandra asked strangely: "Susan, what kind of room is this? Is there anything wrong?"
Susan frowned her burgundy eyebrows a little confused: "This is Mr. Beltrand's vault, which contains his savings of gold, silver and precious magic materials, but now there is nothing......"
"Monsters will like these things?" The palpitations that did not subside easily hit everyone's senses again, and these things disappeared so strangely!
Sandra gritted her teeth: "Maybe if the summoned monster wants to survive, it needs precious gold, gems and magic materials." With that said, she looked around more and more vigilantly, and she really couldn't imagine that after destroying and destroying all the mediums several times, the monster could still come back to life!
"Do you need to pay like summoning a dragon?" Charlotte said a little ridiculously, "Let's not move any further, just arrange the magic circle here and wait, there are indeed many mysteries in the matter. But I think it's for other reasons, it has nothing to do with the monster, it definitely can't be resurrected again."
Susan began to cooperate with Charlotte and Sandra to arrange the defensive magic circle, while Lucian leaned against the wall without much strength, and with a little mental power, his soul and head throbbed together, and could only barely activate the magic items.
Soon, the magic circle was arranged, Charlotte, Sandra, and Susan all sighed frequently, no matter what enemies there were, as long as it did not exceed the five rings, it would take at least ten minutes to break the magic circle defense, and there were two four-ring magicians inside, so it was more than enough to persist until the high-level magicians arrived.
After finishing, Charlotte and Sandra stood on both sides of the gate, Susan was in the corner, Lucian was leaning against the side wall, opposite the smooth patterned rock, reflecting everyone's blurred figures, but Sandra's cracked neckline, Charlotte's broken vest, Lucian's monocles, etc.
After quietly watching their hard work Lucian, he went through the whole thing in his mind and said seriously: "Maybe that monster is indeed dead, but it seems that someone is manipulating everything behind the scenes from the beginning."
When Lucian said his judgment, his shadow wearing a monocle suddenly grinned, no longer weird, but triumphant!
When did it come in?! Lucian ignored the headache, and subconsciously stimulated the Crown of the Sun, and a holy light blasted over.
"Mr. Evans, what's wrong?" Charlotte and Sandra turned around defensively, but there was only the light of the magic circle inspired by Lucian's "Holy Light Strike" on the wall.
Lucian examined himself carefully and found that he had not been attacked by any secrets, nor had his soul and spirit attacked.
"Could it be that I was too nervous, coupled with the soul chaos caused by the use of elemental vortexes beyond the level, so I had hallucinations?" Lucian felt that he was overreacting, but he still described the scene he had just seen.
"If it's that monster, how could it not take the opportunity to attack you, Mr. Evans? And if it doesn't attack, why does it expose itself, there is no benefit!" Sandra and Charlotte clearly thought that Lucian was hallucinating under his weakness.
Lucian pushed the monocle: "I can't tell if it's a hallucination created by myself, anyway, let's continue to be vigilant, there are still a few minutes left, the high-level magician is coming."
…………
In the apprenticeship hall, the black corrosion marks in the secret room suddenly wriggled, and then it suddenly rose high, condensing a giant creature in the hall, it had a strong body, a thick neck, a head like a lizard, and a pair of transparent and beautiful bat wings-like wing membranes on its back.
This turned out to be a giant dragon!
In the corner of the apprentice hall where no one was around, stripes like water waves suddenly appeared, and a figure slowly emerged.
This is a handsome middle-aged man in a flaming magic robe, holding a notebook and a quill in his hand.
As soon as it saw him, the dragon pounced suddenly, two huge front paws resting on the black-haired middle-aged magician, its bright red tongue sticking out, and licking it over in a gesture that wrapped around his whole body.
Sizzle, the middle-aged magician's close-fitting force field wall shook to pieces under the dragon's licking, and he smiled and nodded while writing something in his notebook: "Well done!"
"Yes!" The dragon hummed a sound from his nose, looking very happy and proud, and continued to stretch out his tongue to lick the middle-aged magician.
The middle-aged magician stopped writing with a quill and whispered: "Be cautious, react quickly, do things decisively, and perform better than most magicians in the face of danger, but there are many problems in magic matching, combinations and use choice......s, and you need to specialize in this area of learning.
Putting away the notebook, the middle-aged magician looked at the dragon with a serious expression: "Afrith, hand over those treasures quickly, they belong to the council."
The dragon pressed its front paws on the middle-aged magician, licking it more and more, refusing to answer the question of treasure.
Seeing that his close force field wall was about to break, the middle-aged magician shook his head helplessly: "Okay, you can take some of it as a reward for you to kill that monster and play it."
"Yes!" The dragon snorted unusually happily, and then licked it again enthusiastically, and the force field wall was shattered with a snap.
