Age of Arcane

Chapter 169 Anti-Tracking (4000)

The meditation and thinking conference room of Oulu College is fully defensive. The light curtain flowing on the wall can not only defend against external intrusion, but also resist external spiritual penetration.In the middle of the conference room is a circular conference table, where all the senior managers of Oulu Academy gathered to discuss the countermeasures for the invasion of the Abyss Temple again.

Dean Willred's expression was extremely serious, after all, an excellent student died.

Clear Sky, who participated in the meeting, recounted how he encountered Potlem: "...the deceased Houston Carey was still alive when I entered the library. Potlem should have discovered me, killed me randomly, and then used the secret The technique turned him into a walking corpse puppet to demonstrate to me.

Potlem must be lurking somewhere in the Academy, and we should find him before he kills more people. "

The vice president of the college, Werner Elwes, asked: "Professor Qingkong, you didn't see the murderer, how did you know that he was the Abyssal Apostle Potlem? Although the other side admitted it, it could be someone else pretending to be Potley Mu, to cloud our judgment."

Qingkong replied: "Deputy Dean Elvis, I know a lot about the apostles of the abyss, but please forgive me for not being able to tell the specific reason. The apostles of the abyss are scattered all over the world, each with their own tasks, and they can be dispatched here so quickly There are not many apostles. Portlem is a guy with a very mouse-like personality, he likes to hide in the dark and kill people through secret techniques."

Who would have thought that Vice President Elvis would continue to ask: "Professor Qingkong, your origin is very suspicious. Because of Dean Willred's reason, we don't need to pursue your identity. But at this time, please hand over the disaster." The book, which is in safe custody by the Academy of Oulu."

Although Raging Waves City gave an explanation for Clear Sky's theft of the Book of Calamity, most of the Oulu Academy's management personnel did not fully believe it.

"Vice President Elvis, the Book of Calamity is absolutely safe with me. What you need to worry about now should be the safety of the college staff and students!"

When Vice President Elvis was about to ask about Qingkong's details, Dean Willred said: "The book of calamity is safest with Professor Qingkong now, after all, I can't get it from her." It's even more impossible for Potlem to take back the Book of Calamity."

"but……"

"Trust me, Elvis."

"Okay." Vice President Elvis had no choice but to say, "We trust you, Willred, but how should we find Perlem? The battle mages are searching for the intruders, but there is no good news yet. come."

Willred said: "As Professor Qingkong said, Portlem is like a mouse. Once he tries to hide, it will be very difficult to find him. Professor Qingkong, you know a lot about the Abyssal Apostle. Is there any way?"

Qingkong replied: "It depends on the results of Houston Carey's autopsy. Potlem must use a medium to control the walking corpse puppet with secret techniques. If I find the medium, I can confirm the secret technique he used.

Perhaps it is possible to find Potlem's hiding place in reverse through secret techniques. "

Clear Sky immediately used ice to seal Houston Carey's body to prevent the media from being taken back by Potlem.

Willred nodded, and gave an order: "All Oulu battle mages continue to search for intruders; each department organizes fighters to protect our students; activate all Abyss leopards...

Let the academy infirmary find the secret medium in Houston Carey's body as soon as possible. "

"Yes, Dean."

Some college administrators were sent out, and the rest were waiting for news in the thinking conference room.

After about half an hour, someone from the college infirmary brought a glass jar.

The occult agent controlling Houston Carey has been found, a slender worm.About ten centimeters, gray-white body, with twelve segments, each segment has a pair of horns and a pair of eyes.

Dean Willred called out its name after just a glance: "Hollmann Wetland Spinal Cord Worm. It can burrow into the spines of dead people and animal corpses, and control them to move in search of food and water. Hall Spinal cord worms generally do not attack living things...

Professor Qingkong, please take a look. "

Clear Sky took the glass jar from Dean Willred, and the Holman wetland spinal cord worm inside was still alive. It quickly crawled along the inner edge of the jar, appearing panicked.

"Yes, Holman wetland spinal cord worms generally don't attack living things, but obviously some secret techniques can manipulate it. Then manipulate it to kill Houston Carey, and then manipulate it to control Houston Carey's body."

"Can you find Potlem in reverse through the secret technique?"

"I'll give it a try..." Qing Kong stood up from his seat: "I want to organize my people to release the secret technique, please allow me to take this Holman Wetland Spinal Cord Worm."

Hearing that Qingkong was going to release the secret technique in the academy, Vice President Elvis said again: "Oulu Academy does not allow the use of secret techniques, especially if you still have the book of disaster! Willred, you forgot that Is it a disaster?

We cannot risk triggering a new disaster just to find the abyss apostle. "

Will Reid said: "Elvis, Professor Clear Sky has a way to safely use the Book of Calamity. And... we shouldn't continue to be immersed in the fear of secret arts. There are many reasons for that disaster. We can’t put all the blame on the secret technique.”

Clear Sky has a safe way to use the Tome of Calamity!

Everyone in the conference room looked at the clear sky, some couldn't believe that the Book of Calamity, which almost destroyed Oulu Academy, was tamed by such a young elf.

"Willed, is what you said true?"

"It's true... Do you think Professor Qingkong was affected by the Book of Calamity?"

Even if the magicians who can sit here have not experienced that disaster, they all know what happened at that time.He also knows what a person's appearance will gradually change under the influence of the Book of Calamity.

The clear sky in front of him was like a blooming flower, showing no sign of withering under the influence of the energy of the abyss at all.

"Well, I choose to believe in Will Reed. Professor Qingkong, please do what you think is right."

With Elvis nodding in agreement, other academy administrators also agreed that Qingkong would release the secret technique in the academy.

After a hundred years of silence, the secret art came to the stage for the first time at the Oulu Academy.

Qingkong left the meeting room with the Holman Wetland Spinal Cord Worm and came to the Department of Occult Arts.At this time, the teachers and students of the Department of Occult Arts had arrived. Under the leadership of Bruce Ban, they arranged magic and occult techniques to resist the invaders.

Therefore, when the clear sky teleported in, several beams of light immediately rose around, and the offensive magic and secret techniques were all in a state of being activated.

"Stop! Stop!" Bruce Ban saw that it was Qingkong who came in, and immediately stopped the attack, and then came to Qingkong's side to salute: "Professor Qingkong...the students are all safe, what happened to the college? I heard that someone was arrested The invaders killed the..."

"Houston Carey in the library was attacked and killed by Abyss Apostle Potlem. The college infirmary found this thing in Carey's body, do you know it?"

After taking out the glass jar in the clear sky, Bruce Ban also recognized the bug: "Holman wetland spinal cord worm, isn't this thing not attacking people?"

"In the secret technique, everything is impossible." Qingkong put the glass jar on the table in the middle of the classroom, and then said to everyone: "We are going to perform a secret technique, through this Holman's wetland spinal cord worm Find the location of the operation. First clear the middle of the classroom, I need a location without debris."

The teachers and students immediately moved away the desks and chairs in the classroom, leaving only the middle table with the Holman wetland spinal cord worm.

At this time, Qingkong has already found the secret words that need to be used through the mobile phone.

"Heidi Siko!"

Class monitor Heidi Siko stood up: "Professor Qingkong, I'm here!"

"You take the students to the secret art material room to get the mysterious props I need... 120 grams of weasel bone powder, 34 Buffalo stones, ten meters of shroud, mourning music score, moon crystal..."

Clear Sky was speaking of a series of mysterious props for the students to prepare, and then said to Bruce Ban and the staff: "Now I will tell you the secret technique of killing Kairi in Portlem. Under the leadership of Professor Ban, Design a set of backtracking secrets as quickly as possible, and then go to the library to deploy the words of secrets.

The dual positioning of our two secret techniques can greatly narrow the scope. "

Bruce Ban replied, "Yes, Professor Clear Sky."

On the blackboard in the classroom, Qingkong drew the words of the secret technique used by Potlem.Then use the fastest speed to explain the details of the subject, auxiliary and formation.

The students were also very fast. They moved the mysterious props Qingkong wanted to the classroom and waited for the next instruction.

Bruce Ban led the staff into a group, some of them designed the reverse tracking secret technique here, and the other went to the library to find the correct place where Kaili was cast.

Qingkong took the students into action.

She first called Lydia to her side: "You go to the Kestrel, and then ask her to take you to find the sandpaper, and then say that I have something to ask her to help, and turn on the boiling."

"Yes, Professor Qingkong."

During Kestrel's examination and treatment at the academy, Qingkong entrusted Lydia, who was about the same age, to take care of her. The relationship between the two girls was very good.

Lydia left the classroom, and Qingkong began to formally lay out the words of the secret technique.

Four students stood in the four directions of the spinal cord worm in Holman Wetland, holding Buffalo stones in their hands, and candles stuck on the stones.Under the guidance of Clear Sky, Heidi Siko and Xiaopang evenly sprinkled the mole bone powder on the candles.

The originally orange-red flames turned pale after touching the bone meal.The flame rose from the candle core, floating like four will-o'-the-wisps above the heads of the four students holding the Buffalo stone.

At this time, all the lights in the classroom were suddenly extinguished, and the will-o'-the-wisps illuminated the place miserably, and there was even a voice of resentment.

"Keep calm and don't be confused by hallucinations." Qing Kong reminded the students who were a little scared, and continued to guide the layout of secret techniques.

Bruce Ban and the others used the fastest speed and relied on the secret art knowledge they had learned to formulate a secret art language that traces the direction of the secret art in reverse.After reading it, Qingkong felt that there was no problem and asked them to go to the library.

The reverse tracking of the library is actually just a backup of the secret technique here.Qingkong doesn't know what effect the secret technique she cast this time can achieve. If it can be supplemented in two directions, maybe it can really achieve precise positioning.

After Bruce Class and the others went to the library, Clear Sky took the students to burn the shroud to ashes, and used the ashes to draw a diagram of the formation in the classroom.The mourning music score is placed under the glass jar, and the crystals are placed on different nodes of the formation.

Other adjuncts have been arranged one after another.

The classroom became more eerie, and the cold energy manifested many translucent floating ghosts.They wandered around the professor irregularly, making miserable noises.

The students all looked terrified.They have never been exposed to this level of secret art, as if they are in the ghost land ruled by the undead.

"Keep calm, what you see and hear is the effect of the energy in the mysterious props being stimulated. Stand still, and they won't hurt you." Clear Sky walked to the front of the glass jar while observing the Holman Wetland inside Spinal cord worms, while teaching the students: "You like secret arts because of its mystery and change. Therefore, before you get in touch with deeper secret arts, you must have a big heart willing to face any unpredictable phenomena.

Holman's wetland spinal cordworm is a creature that feeds on soul energy. After it ingests excess soul energy, it can reflect many scenes that the parasitic host has seen.

And to bring the Holman wetland spinal cord worm here, it must be continuously fed with soul energy to keep it alive.Look...it's starting to suck soul energy..."

The lecture in the clear sky made the students forget the visions around them, and focused on the Holmann wetland spinal cord worm in the glass jar.

At this time, Holman's Spinal Cord Worm clings to the inner wall of the glass jar, surrounded by ghostly phantoms formed by the energy of the surrounding souls, and then turns into wisps of white smoke and floats towards the Holman's Wet Spinal Cord Worm's open mouth.

With the increase of the injected soul energy, the size of Holman's wetland spinal cord worm gradually expanded, changing from a nematode to a silkworm.At the same time, rays of light radiated from its more than ten pairs of eyes, and some swaying images appeared between the white smoke formed by the soul energy.

At this time, Qingkong read out the words of the secret technique: the record of the past life of the spinal cord worm.

The originally shaky light instantly became stable, and the image suddenly became clear.

"Professor Qingkong, is that you?" Hidishiko pointed at the elf that appeared in the white smoke and shouted.

Qingkong also saw herself in the image.

This should be the librarian Carey's perspective.At that time, he had already been parasitized by the spinal cord worm, and what he saw was naturally seen by the spinal cord worm, and of course it was also what Polem saw.

"It's me. At this time, the spinal cord worm is controlling the host to meet me. We need to wait for a while, and we should be able to see its last host..." Qingkong looked at the four ghost fires floating in the sky, and said to Heidixiko : "Watch the shape of those flames, as they start to shake, sprinkle mole bone meal on the candle."

"Yes, Professor Qingkong."

Haidishiko was a little excited to be able to assist Professor Qingkong to release such a powerful secret technique.
