Returning from the abyss

The shadow of death has arrived, and everyone's preparations only made it come a moment late.

Mint, who was blocking the apostles' invasion at the back door, suddenly saw changes in the air. Grass blades were flying, and a cyclone suddenly formed.

"Special enemy attack! Polar Apostle!" Mint shouted immediately, and a golden page formed in her palm, "Law Order!"

Powerful magic burst out from the paper, carving golden marks under her feet.Mint's reaction was already extremely fast, but she could not match the apostle's speed.

In a tearing explosion, as if she was pushed by someone, she crossed the golden boundary drawn by herself.

In the whirlwind, an eye appeared. The upper part of the eye was white and the lower part was black. The pupil was like a sun, but it exuded a dark purple brilliance.It stares at Mint as invisible forces swirl around it, turning things with "relative" characteristics into reverse.

Mint threw out the golden page in her hand, and the page immediately turned gray in mid-air. The content of the order had been controlled by the other party, and her next order might not be issued as she expected.And under the "insurmountable" boundary she drew, if the peripheral beings wanted to come over, they would have to at least spend some time to disintegrate her magic.

There is no need to hesitate at all in which one to choose.

The pages of the book exploded instantly, giving a final warning to the people in the main library. Mint immediately gathered all its magic power and pounced directly on the eyeball in the whirlwind.Her body has been controlled by "polarity", but the pure magic power does not have any polarity characteristics. She raised her hand that was turning from the inside out and drew a simple drawing of mint.

Boom!

The second explosion caused Escher's expression in the main hall to change. His lips trembled and he said, "Mint has activated its magic to self-destruct."

"What?" Jasmine had just healed Ou Baizhi's injury when she heard the bad news and suddenly raised her head, "Mr. Escher, you said..."

"I said that I will try my best to let everyone go, but I also said that this is a life-and-death battle." Escher shook his head, "Kid, look at them."

Jasmine raised her head and found that Bay Leaf, Rosemary, Ambergris and others seemed to have been prepared for it. They were undoubtedly sad about Mint's death, but they all accepted the ending.

"It might be you next, or it might be me." Rosemary said calmly, "Jasmine, don't have any illusions. We are attacking the god who dominates magic, and we are also facing the aftermath of the god."

At this time, Ou Baizhi snorted and opened her eyes.

The penetrating injury was not fatal, but it also deprived him of most of his combat effectiveness.He stretched out his hand with difficulty and took out a handkerchief with the Oubaizhi badge in his pocket.

"How's the battle going?" he asked.

"Don't worry." Bayleaf still kept smiling, "It's not time for us to fight for our lives yet."

To everyone's surprise, after midnight, at two or three in the morning, the intensity of the battle seemed to decrease.

Watanabe Fuchiko slowed down slightly, the origins of magic's invasion of this space and time slowed down, and the arrival of the apostles was also much slower.Most magic origins only have a small number of apostles that can be deployed. Everyone only needs to eliminate the previous apostles, and then only need to fight against a few specific elites.

Linewood fell on the sofa and rubbed his forehead, which was already starting to feel dizzy. This was a side effect of excessive use of magic power. Although he had huge magic power, he did not have such high talents, and he drove another powerful magic power. After the prop shattered the "man outside the window", it was already difficult for him to even stand.Milia poured a bottle of medicine into his mouth, which only relieved the physical fatigue.

"Milia...do you think we can last until the time?"

Lanewood felt that his physical condition was on the verge of reaching its limit, and only Milia by his side could keep him going.Milia also knew this, she didn't say anything, she just helped Lanewood prepare the medicine.

"Okay, Milia, but you have to listen to me. You have the ability to become invisible and you are not a magician. Most of the apostles cannot find you directly. If the situation is really irreversible, you can activate your ability and start by yourself. Walk."

"No, if you..."

"Milia, we are different from my younger brothers and sisters. We also have Lista. Our family needs to continue. To do this, we each have to give full play to our abilities." Lionwood looked at Milly. Ya, "Of course, this is just the worst-case scenario. Help me up, Milia, I can continue to fight."

"Drink this." Milia poured another dose of potion into his mouth, and then helped Lanewood stand up.

At this time, she saw a shadow appear in the window. For a moment, she thought it was the "person outside the window" coming back, but the next second, with the help of the light in the hall, she saw a face with a familiar outline.

Lista stood outside the window, raised the hand holding the knife and waved it, with a stiff smile on her face.

She no longer knows how to get along with her parents.

"Milia?" Lionwood looked at the stunned Milia, then turned his head and followed her gaze, and naturally saw Lista.

Even though he had heard about his daughter's "future" from Fuchiko Watanabe, Lanewood had not actually met her, and this meeting may be the connection between relatives. He and Milia instantly They all realized that Lista came to say goodbye.

Milia opened her mouth, not knowing what to say; but Lionwood smiled like Lista, clasped his thumb and middle finger, and popped a bunch of magic fireworks upwards.

That was the first magic he performed for Lista when he led her into the path of magic.

After Lista saw this bouquet of fireworks, she suddenly felt relieved. Her smile was finally no longer stiff, but filled with a hint of relief.

Then, she left the window, her final farewell was completed, she would never leave the island again, and her future would disappear.

This is... a good thing.

"Lista, 'Chaos' has arrived."

A voice came to her ears, which was a message from Watanabe Fuchiko through the props.Lista looked up at the sky and saw for the first time the form of the origin of the magic she had learned.Most of its body is a clock dial with hundreds of hands on it, and the scales on the dial are also totems that almost overlap each other. Outside the dial, a large number of black bubble-like floating objects extend.Compared with its apostles, "Chaos" itself seems to have a clearly identifiable shape.

However, Lista knows that chaos itself represents the beginning and the end, from analysis to the end of no solution. Therefore, the manifestation of chaos itself must be all-encompassing but indicates the demise of order.

The moment "Chaos" appeared, violent vibrations spread to the surroundings.It can naturally feel that everything that makes up this place belongs to its magic. However, the problem lies here. It cannot completely restore the magic here, otherwise the magic of replacing reality with history will no longer exist, and this excellent opportunity will also disappear.

It just took part of the magic power back under its control, and the sky turned into its shield, blocking Watanabe Fuchiko's immediate attack on it.And then, it launched the black bubbles floating around itself.

The "Compiler" was intercepted in advance and could not respond to its call at the moment, but Chaos did not necessarily need its own apostles.Since it has the magic power to simulate the origin of any magic, it can naturally create fake apostles through simulation.

These apostles are indeed not as good as the genuine ones. They are just fabricated by Chaos with the residual magic aura. The problem is that there are too many of them.The apostles who had been defended by the people on the island climbed up again from the shadow of the black bubble. Even though the characteristics directly belonging to the origin of their magic were no longer there, they still had the powerful bodies of the apostles themselves, as well as some magical abilities. characteristic.

A group of dark "people outside the window" smashed the window and jumped directly into the main room. Just as the blade-like arm was about to be cut out, Cynthia shot it to pieces.But then, two more "people outside the window" emerged from the window.

Immediately afterwards, several black figures that seemed to be wrapped in rags staggered towards the main entrance of the supervisor.They no longer have the ability to snipe from a distance, but they can still use their arms as weapons to attack enemies.

Crazy plant roots sprouted from the ground, and dark flower ants spread their roots outward, trying to destroy the entire structure of the main museum from underground.

"Justina, start in full force!" Gustav shouted loudly, "We can no longer hold back in this round of attack!"

In an instant, a colorful magic light curtain enveloped the Eight Eyes Pavilion, and various counterattack magics were thrown out like magic forts, exploding into clouds of fire on the mountain roads and forests.Lionwood felt that a large amount of magic power was being extracted from the Eight Eyes Island, which also gave him a feeling of emptiness, as if his whole body had been hollowed out.I'm afraid that this feeling of overdraft of magic power will not disappear from him until he leaves Eight Eyes Island and leaves the magical connection here.

At this time, an illusory figure suddenly appeared at the back door and stretched out his hand to Mint's body.With the gentle pull of the palm, another illusory shadow emerged from the body.

Musk smiled slightly at Mint.

Mint looked down at himself, his face blurred for a moment, and then turned into another face.

"We can't leave," Musk said softly, "but we can still fulfill our responsibilities."

"The last Mint also has regrets in her heart." Mint said, "She also wants to live."

"It's a pity." Musk looked up at the apostle of "Polarity", "The last Musk didn't want to die."

Then, the phantoms of the two servants activated their magic again without hesitation, and joined forces to suppress the apostle.For them, they only need to control the apostle's actions, because as Watanabe Fuchiko's collaborators, they know that there is additional support.

A crack suddenly appeared in the middle of the black and white apostle.

"Cut."

With a soft drink from Han Xizhe, his crushing cut, which took a long time to prepare, finally landed on the apostle, cutting him into pieces.

Amidst the defensive magic circle that completely enveloped the main hall and the attack from Chaos, people finally had their only chance to rest.

"The defense of the magic circle can last at least two hours, and with our control, it can be longer. Everyone, this is your only rest time." Gustav said to everyone, "In case of an unexpected situation, , someone will call us out, please seize this opportunity."

As soon as he finished speaking, several people fell directly onto the sofa, including Lane Wood.

Gustav shook his head, found a place to sit down, closed his eyes, and began to recharge his batteries.

At the same moment, Lu Ning started her hunting operation in the outside world.Compared to those in the main hall, she could act unscrupulously on the island. Those apostles could do nothing to humans, but they could not do anything to her.The only people who pose a threat to her are the tourists, and now the tourists have united.

Her energy was enough to sustain the all-night battle, and at least ten special apostles were reduced to ashes or penetrated by the soul-returning pillar in her hands.Countless other derivatives were destroyed, and half of the chaos bubbles thrown by Chaos shattered directly in her hands.

This is more consistent with the characteristics of the "confrontation scene" set up in the distribution center. Except for the top existence, the tourists are in a low-pressure environment, and all pressure should be exerted on each other by the tourists who confront each other.

It was precisely because Watanabe Fuchiko knew this that she dared to use this rather risky plan to directly modify the origin of magic to accomplish her goal.

Unfortunately, the number of tourists still alive is too small.

Lu Ning discovered after penetrating an apostle again that before she knew it, a ray of morning light had fallen on her body, but she was still holding half of the apostle's twisted arm.

"Its daybreak?"

She blinked before standing up in confusion.A long period of fighting will have some impact on a person's mind. Although it will not reduce her ability to judge the battlefield, it will make her immersed in this atmosphere.In fact, Lu Ning has never had this kind of long-term battlefield fighting experience so far. It is more of a quick assassination or a one-on-one confrontation with the enemy.

She looked at her palms. Some apostles had blood, and she was inevitably stained with a lot of blood.

"Fifth order..."

In some guidance books of Rosicrucian, one of the necessary qualities for fifth-level tourists is strong psychological adjustment ability. Not only for ordinary killings, but also in the face of monsters and other situations, tourists have good resistance to many strange situations. sex.The most dangerous thing is the weakness rooted in the human heart, and the distribution center does not care about the treatment of such mental or psychological diseases.

It took about ten seconds for Lu Ning to break away from the fierce fighting state.This time she killed all monsters, so she didn't need to feel too much psychological pressure, but she couldn't help but think about it, what if there were such a number of people next time?What if she really got into the most ordinary war between people?

Lu Ning is very aware of her state. She cannot complete the killing in this kind of war without any guilt.
