Mystery: Mr. Witch and Miss Hunter

Chapter 390 The Harpy's Protection

"Now, can we get down to business?"

Adele's voice sounded at the right time, causing Eileen, who was immersed in inexplicable loss, to raise her head in a daze.

"The magic item you want is in the drawer."

Elena buried her face in her palm, exhaled, and said in a muffled voice.

"Thank you."

Adele walked to the desk, opened the drawer, and took out a small box wrapped in flannelette.

Opening the box, inside was a pair of curled black stockings, the tentacles were cold and slippery, like snake skin shed from a giant python.There is a pair of protruding wing-shaped carvings at the ankle, and there is no trace of sewing at the joint, as if the wings grew out of stockings.

Adele scratched her fingernails on the stockings and found that the stockings were so tough that it was difficult to cut them even with a knife.

"I named this magical item 'Protection of the Harpy'. According to the records of the blood race, the Harpy is a fast-moving creature with the ability to travel through the spirit world."

"This magical item allows you to travel through the spiritual world that can sense the self-positioning of the outside world. Extraordinary people of different sequences have different strengths of their own spirit bodies, and the transmission time they can withstand is different. The effect and distance of the spiritual world shuttle are also obviously different. .”

There was no spirit in Elena's words, but she still introduced it to Adele in detail.

"In addition to the long-distance spirit world shuttle, you can also use it for short-distance teleportation. There is almost no cooldown time. The maximum distance is 100 meters."

"In addition, the person wearing this pair of socks can create a small-scale gust of wind under their feet, and use the wind pressure to move quickly; even if they don't actively use the ability, they can still get a running speed bonus, making the wearer's speed no less than the fastest Excellent horse race."

"Then, what are the negative effects?"

Adele is obviously a little moved. After all, whether it is short-distance teleportation, long-distance spirit world shuttle or acceleration effect, whether it is an assassin who is good at close combat or a witch who is good at long-distance spell casting, it is very useful equipment. .

"After wearing these stockings, you will fall more easily, not only in complex road conditions, sometimes even if you stand still on open terrain, you may step on your feet when you take the first step. tripped over his trousers."

I am an assassin with excellent balance ability, am I still afraid of falling?Adele agreed on the surface, but she was a little unbelieving in her heart.

"You'd better not underestimate this negative effect too much."

Seeing Adele's thoughts, Elena didn't hide anything, and said bluntly: "This kind of fall can indeed be relieved by controlling the body, such as quickly supporting the body when the foot loses balance, and once Falling on the ground is not a serious injury for Extraordinary, but this kind of accident will be affected by luck."

"You mentioned to me before that you have a magical item that has a negative effect that brings you bad luck, right?"

Elena pointed to Adele's left arm, "The curse of falling, plus bad luck, plus the ability to move at high speed brought by this stocking... If you are not careful, it may cause irreversible damage .”

"...I know, I will use it carefully."

Adele imagined the scene where she suddenly fell and rolled into a wheel while running at a speed of fifty kilometers per hour, and couldn't help shivering.

Not only that, frost is also a very important part of the witch's combat skills. If the ground is covered with ice, the negative effect of this stocking may be triggered more frequently.

The more I get to this time, the more I envy Sister Vespa's magical ability to properly match various sealed items so as to offset the negative effects of each other...

Adele sighed in her heart, she didn't have so many magical items to carry before, so she didn't have these troubles;

And now she has the Night Veil, Heart Stealer Lip Gloss, Survivor Hidden Blade, and now this stockings, the cumulative negative effects include drowsiness, forgetfulness, color blindness, unlucky, drowning and now easy to fall, To some extent, it has seriously affected her fighting style, and forced her to make some choices.

When I turn the extraordinary characteristics of the marionette master in my hand into a magical item, I may have to add a new negative effect.At that time, I may have to sell some of the magical items to prevent the negative effects of the magical items from forming a closed loop...

Adele felt that she gradually began to understand the troubles of the rich, and began to worry about too many magical items.

If it really doesn't work, you can take it back for Venata and Sophie to use. Now Adele is also the leader of a large organization, and there is never a shortage of people waiting for magical items.

"By the way, this stocking has a self-cleaning function. It doesn't need to be cleaned like ordinary stockings. The material is also quite tough and can withstand the cutting of a sword."

Elena was still introducing, absent-mindedly, she didn't notice the other party and didn't pay much attention to her own explanation, and continued to talk about the negative effects of magical items.

"Thank you for your hard work, here is the processing fee."

After getting the magical item, Adele didn't want to stay here for too long, so she prepared to leave.

She placed the box containing the [-] pounds exchanged from the sun on Elena's desk, and processed the five-level mystical items in the sequence. Two thousand pounds was quite a generous price tag.

"You're leaving here soon, aren't you?"

When Adele was about to leave, Elena asked reluctantly behind her.

"If the situation over there goes well, I will come back to the Southern Continent."

Adele didn't look back, she whispered comforting words, lowered the brim of her soft hat, and was about to open the door and leave.

"...Are you going to meet your fiancée?" Elena hesitated for a while before asking.

"That's right." Adele nodded, suddenly seemed to remember something, reached out and groped in her pocket for a while, then turned around and walked towards Elena, and put a vial made of crystal glass in Elena's hand inside.

Elena took it suspiciously, and inside was a small bottle of dark red liquid, which shone seductively under the light of the chandelier.

"I always carry this with me as a material for casting spells. It can be used as a souvenir for you."

Adele touched her cheek with some embarrassment, "It contains my blood, which has been treated with black magic and can be stored for a long time."

Elena's face turned rosy again, and she couldn't hide her joy and said: "Thank you, I will cherish it."

I hope that donating blood has no special meaning in the culture of blood clans...

Seeing Elena's joyful expression, Adele felt a little worried for a moment, for fear that her actions would be a prelude to confession in the culture of the vampires.

However, seeing that Elena had no reaction other than joy, Adele was also slightly relieved, and left Dijin Manor.

The small vial of blood was pre-processed by her, retaining the inner spirituality, but the connection with Adele's own mysticism was cut off, and it was only used as spiritual material, not directional, so Adele was not worried about Adele. Linna would use that bottle of blood to cast a curse on herself for her refusal.

After she got into the rented carriage by the roadside and came into the closed compartment, she took out the pair of silk stockings from her pocket and put them on her feet.

When she put the pair of thin stockings on her feet, a wonderful feeling suddenly rushed from the soles of her feet to the top of her head, making her feel as light as springs under her feet. If she wanted to, she could even jump with one step. out a few meters.

Although the weather is not too warm now, and the heater is not turned on in the car to save money, Adele, who only wears a pair of stockings, does not feel cold at all. The thermal performance of these socks seems to be good.

"Next, try traveling through the spirit world..."

Adele thought for a while, took out all the change in her pocket, about ten soli, put the change on her seat, and then activated the "flash" that came with the Harpy's protection ability.

Almost without any warning, Adele found herself directly on the side of the road outside the carriage. Fortunately, there was no one on the road, and no one noticed her, the witch who suddenly appeared.

It's really teleportation, there is almost no sign, and there is no obvious direction trend, and there is no necessary connection with the direction you are facing. As long as it is within the effective range, you can teleport almost wherever you want, making people Unstoppable and impossible to counter...

When she thought that such a guy was finally killed by Feysac's airship because of exhaustion of spirituality, Adele felt a burst of embarrassment in her heart.I'm afraid that traveler never dreamed that he was killed because he couldn't escape in the end.

Adele pretended to be careless and walked along the bluestone embankment for a while, wanting to find a place where no one was around and try out the new ability again.

However, this time she only walked less than 50 meters, and suddenly her feet slipped for no reason, as if the land where she had originally landed suddenly sank, and Adele lost her center of gravity and fell forward.

Fortunately, Adele's balance ability is really good. At the moment when she was about to fall, she bent her knees to lower her center of gravity, and at the same time stretched out her other leg backwards to maintain the balance of her body. She squatted on one leg in a very weird posture down.

Good guy, I just relaxed for less than a minute, and the negative effect came out...

Adele was very helpless. From the moment she put on these stockings, she realized through spiritual connection that the negative effects of these stockings have always existed since she put on them. The more, the greater the chance of falling.

I only used one teleport, and almost gave me a flat fall...

Adele sighed depressingly. There were three days and five hours before her advance luck could be fully paid off. At least before this deadline, she still couldn't use this magical item frequently.

Let's try long-distance teleportation next...

Adele bent down, rubbed her ankle, which had been greatly impacted by the encounter just now, and poured spirituality into the stockings, and at the same time outlined the appearance of her office in her mind.

Afterwards, her feet began to become transparent, as if carrying the reflection of the spirit world. The black in front of her eyes became more intense, and various colors were distinct and layered together.

Those fast-moving colorful lines appeared again in Adele's field of vision, and countless almost invisible figures retreated backwards. Adele's feet stepped on those slender lines of the spirit world, jumping and shuttling non-stop.

This process sounds very long, but it actually took less than two seconds. Adele found that her body was plummeting, the heavy colors around her faded, and everything returned to normal.

Looking around her again, she had already appeared inside her office, and everything in the room was as usual without any difference.

At this time, there was a sudden sharp pain in her toes, and Adele lowered her head, only to realize that in the process of emerging from the spirit world, she had subconsciously made a balance to maintain her balance because she was not used to the feeling of being out of the spirit world. He moved and kicked the table in the office.

Adele almost jumped up in pain, but just as she was about to lift her foot, she found that she lost her balance, and finally fell heavily on the office carpet.

Leaving aside the unlucky negative effects, the maximum range of teleportation is quite far...

Worried that she would fall if she stood up, Adele simply sat on the carpet and took off the pair of stockings first.

After one teleportation, Adele discovered that with her current sequence level, one teleportation can reach Bayam from here at most, and five to six long-distance teleportations at most can reach Port Indo from here.

However, teleportation consumes a lot of spirituality. I only teleported a distance of tens of kilometers, and the spirituality consumed is equivalent to igniting a black fire.

Don't underestimate the spirituality of a black fire. With Adele's current level, the spirituality will be completely consumed if she touches up to 140 black fires in a row. This is because she is already rich in spirituality as a witch of the source material faction. .

Long-distance teleportation requires even more spirituality. If you want to rely on this magical item to "travel" from the southern continent to Indo Port in the northern part of Fusac, I am afraid that Adele's spirituality will be consumed at least a quarter three.

What's more, in the later stage of long-distance travel, the consumption of spirituality will almost increase exponentially. If you want to complete this trip, you must stop in the middle.And in her doomed state to do this kind of thing that requires multiple links to be correct, Adele asked herself that she didn't have much confidence.

Still can't compare to the "apprentice" demigod like Miss "Magician". If she wants to, I'm afraid it won't be a problem to cross the continent directly. How can she look forward and backward like herself...

Adele couldn't help but yearn when she thought of Miss "Magician" relying on her extraordinary ability to travel back and forth between Bayam and Backlund, leading the demigods of the Tarot Society to the battlefield.

It's a pity that she was sent to the starry sky by accident, and she doesn't know when she will be back...

Adele glanced at the gradually gloomy sky outside, and thought about Miss "Magician" again.
