Marvel Magic Event Book

Chapter 1418 Internal Disputes (Two in One)

Laura Crawford didn't take her words to heart. After all, this woman had said too many inconspicuous words. Apart from reminding her to avoid the invisible cleaners at the beginning, she didn't seem to show any ability The knowledge and ability to leave here.In contrast, she is now more concerned with the stories recorded in the archives, and the drink that is about to be boiled from ice cubes and chocolate into hot cocoa in the pot. "Would you like some cocoa?" she asked, "or would you like a bedtime story?"

"Some cocoa." The woman sat up immediately.She still hasn't taken off her funny blindfold, and her two absurd impressionist eyeballs are darting around.As hard as she was trying to reach for the thermos in Lara Croft's hand, she seemed to have forgotten how she had tucked her arms into the sleeping bag.After struggling a bit, she lay down on the ground again, "Let's also have some bedtime stories. I like listening to stories the most."

"This is a horror story, set in the Kingdom of West Francia and having some ties to members of the Carolingian royal family. After this event, Otto I of Saxony, the first emperor of the Holy Roman Empire, King of Germany, and the Kingdom of East Francia. West Francia After the fall of the kingdom, Pope John XII crowned the first Holy Roman Emperor in Rome, who became guardian and emperor of Rome and supreme ruler of the Roman Catholic world."

Once it came to her own professional field, Lara Croft seemed to be in high spirits, completely oblivious to the weaker and weaker breathing of the woman beside her. "But decades before that, in 911, the last king of the Carolingians, Ludwig IV, Louis the Child, died, and that's the background you need to know before you can tell this story. The story It has a lot to do with Ludwig IV's illness, the dispute between the Holy See and the Kingdom of East Francia, and Ludwig IV's announcement that John XII was involved in heresy, which involves real heresy, which is this story The protagonist of..."

She enthusiastically told stories with the information she compiled, and it wasn't until the hot cocoa in the pot solidified again that she noticed that the woman beside her had stopped moving.She didn't recognize that she reached out and touched the woman's smooth neck. The cold touch made the woman sit up suddenly, and then the buzzer beeped.

"Sorry, I didn't mean it!" Laura Croft quickly waved her hands to explain, "I was just too involved..."

"Now is the time for my favorite TV show to air." The woman shook her messy black hair with a regretful tone.She pulled her arm out of the sleeping bag, and the children's watch in the plastic case kept beeping. "I missed the time when I could watch the show most clearly."

"Do you have a watch? Again?" Lara Croft tried to change the question. "How many times has the watch rang since you came to this place from the closet like the Chronicles of Narnia?"

"What is The Chronicles of Narnia?" the woman asked curiously.She really didn't know what The Chronicles of Narnia was, and naturally she didn't know how similar the way she came to the library from the cupboard was to the behavior of the protagonists of The Chronicles of Narnia, so that Lara Croft began to suspect that Narnia Nia saga is fact not story.

"You don't have to worry about it. You just need to tell me how many times your watch has rung."

"There should be... twelve times!"

"You didn't bring any food or water?" Lara Croft blinked, a little in disbelief.She spoke again to confirm, with a very serious expression, and even grabbed the woman's wrist to examine the child's watch carefully.She didn't believe that someone could survive in this maze for twelve days with such thin clothes and without any food or water. "Shouldn't the show you like to watch only air once a day?"

"Yes."

"This is impossible!"

As soon as Laura Crawford finished speaking, she smelled a strange smell.It was definitely not the smell of burnt chocolate, and she had turned off the alcohol stove.It was a smell like damp dust and torn linen and tears mixed with gnashing hate and futile rage - I couldn't smell any of those things - Lara Croft As soon as he thought of this, he immediately grabbed the woman's wrist and pulled her out of the sleeping bag.She can be sure that the person attracted by the alcohol stove and the sound of talking is definitely not the ghost cleaner from before.

"Can you handle a demon?" She loaded her HK45 as she ran.For safety, she removed the magazine of the pistol that uses 45ACP ammunition from the thigh holster, and did not leave a bullet in the chamber. After all, there is a crazy woman lying next to her, and she must Guarantee the most basic security.Compared with her, this woman is very thin, and Lara Croft believes that even if there is a conflict, she can gain an advantage through hand-to-hand combat.Now she regretted it, the pistol bullets smeared with alchemy silver were very slippery, like a layer of oil, and she even dropped a bullet.

"Or, you're not actually a witch?" She led the woman back and forth between the bookshelves.Without any destination, she just drilled where she couldn't smell.She also turned her head frequently to make sure that the strange woman would not be left alone.When she finally loaded the bullet, she and the woman had come to a place where even the overhead candlesticks were extinguished, and the huge books were like a barrier going straight into the invisible darkness, and they didn't even know how high the ceiling was here.

"I'm a witch! I just forgot the spell!" the woman yelled, "Don't breathe, watch out for the dust demon!"

"Seraphim Serum!"

"It's impossible!" Master Hamel shook his head.He stood in front of the two carved wooden doors, blocking Hammurabi's footsteps.Even though he knew that it was impossible for him to stop the Imperial Guard, he still wanted to explain something here. "Our finished product rate is less than one percent, and the inventory is not enough. This is the closest thing we have to a panacea. We must have a few copies just in case. The mystic family will never agree with your idea .These seraphim serums are life-extending potions second only to the first melissa and the red dragon wet mercury. If you use their share, no matter what power the venerable gives you, the mystic family will against you."

"Haven't I given them something better?"

"But you didn't give them the real panacea. People are greedy, even mystics."

Master Hamil glanced at Master Xiao Wang beside him.This time the Supreme Master left Karma Taj for too long. If the Supreme Master hadn’t handed over the power to Salomon before he left, Salomon would have distributed part of the power to the Supreme Master’s direct lineage, such as Master Hamil and Wu Guiyue. In addition, many armed forces have been arranged to control various important places in Karma Taj, otherwise this power dispute will be more intense than expected, and it is not impossible for bloody conflicts to erupt.

The only person in Karma Taj who can create the Philosopher's Stone is Salomon. This is a height that no one else can reach. Even if there is a mystic by his side, it is impossible to imitate his movements, spells and formulas to create The Philosopher's Stone, because alchemy is a technology related to the soul, and other mystics cannot match him in the height of the soul.

Mages Hamel knew what that meant.

The remnants of the Philosopher's Stone in Paracelsus are also found in Kama Taj, and the fragments of the Philosopher's Stone made by Salomon in the laboratory of the Immortal City are also found here. Only one comparison is needed to know the identity of the two. The difference is that the latter has gone a long way on the road of alchemy and arcane magic, and no one can keep up except the supreme mage.But Salomon couldn't have wasted all his time making the Philosopher's Stone.The only Philosopher's Stone he completed independently was actually Dinah. The other Philosopher's Stones were actually the creations of ether and precious metals separated from gems that reacted with his soul. It was impossible for him to put all his magic into it to create immortality. Medicine - There are many kinds of elixirs in this world. Although the effects are different, the methods of use are different, but the principles are basically the same and they are very rare - even Kama Taj only has one Otkid's Elixr (Otkid's Elixr) ), so the existence of seraph serum is very precious.

"If you are going in," said Master Hamel, "leave the holy sword outside."

"You know, I can kill them without the holy sword."

"It's just a matter of attitude. I don't believe you don't understand such a simple political trick." Master Hamil sneered, "Kama Taj can connect to the Internet, and I know the political games you are playing in Latvinia. Those companies The Lord is much harder to deal with than those old guys."

Salomon glared at him, but the old fellow didn't budge.

"Hammurabi, stay outside. King, come in with me."

Master Hamil moved away to let Salomon open the door to the meditation room. "And your guns, don't bleed," he said, "at least until the Sorcerer Supreme comes."

First the first shot, then the second shot.

Immediately afterwards, Lara Croft dropped the pistol, then dropped the backpack, and dragged the woman to continue running.

The pistol was useless, even with silver bullets, what she did just now was no different from shooting a bee swarm with a pistol, and it was even more stupid. What kind of person would think of using bullets to deal with a cloud of gray mist?Lara Croft shook her head, holding the signal stick in her hand while holding the woman who was still snapping her fingers trying to recall the spell.She took advantage of the corner to pass a rough rock wall and rubbed the signal stick to ignite. The red flame suddenly lit up, and the thick fog that followed them suddenly shrank as if it had been pricked by a needle.The rich experience of adventure made Lara Croft realize something. She suddenly stopped and poked the burning signal stick straight into the thick fog.

Lara Croft thinks back to the past, the anatomy class she went through in middle school.

When she gently touched the dissected frog with a metal rod, the bioelectricity caused the frog's muscles to contract and its legs to twitch.The scene in front of me was exactly the same as that at that time, the thick gray fog suddenly shrank like a frog stimulated by bioelectricity.Only now could Lara Croft see what it was that was hunting them - a vast mist that filled every corner from the rough stone tile floors to the high ceilings - fog creatures Where the clustered bookshelves touch, there is a faint white light, and there is occasional static electricity.Lara Croft felt her scalp go numb, and she didn't know if she was hallucinating, because she saw the appearance of every dust demon.

It is a cluster composed of countless small and invisible extradimensional creatures, and it looks like a large gray fog from the outside.Outer-dimensional creatures have no concepts such as mass and volume, but powerful outer-dimensional creatures can undoubtedly squeeze more of their spiritual power from the gap between reality and illusion—only those extremely weak outer-dimensional creatures, Those creatures whose life course is like a mayfly in the eyes of creatures in the real universe with a time scale will show a dust-like appearance in the material universe.

"N'okii, no, it's N'ooi!"

Lara Croft ignored the meaningless incantations of the woman next to her.She lunged and thrust like a fencing sword, the red flames piercing straight into the cluster of ash. "Now, stand behind me." She pulled the woman behind her, then faced the thick fog of dust, and slowly backed away, "Are you sure you still remember the spell?"

"Of course I remember, I'm a witch!"

"You'd better remember, ma'am." Lara Croft took a deep breath, one of the few times they could breathe freely. "Otherwise we're dead!"

At this time, a steel statue beside them was activated.Originally, Lara Croft thought it was just a decoration installed in the library, but the very industrial statue was walking with heavy steps, the cannon on the shoulder made the sound of loading, and the pincer arms stretched forward Straight, the metal barrel of unknown purpose emitted a blinding scorching white light, striding towards them with agility beyond the reach of Boston Dynamics robots.

"Do you know this thing?"

"No!"

"We are dead!"

When Salomon and Master Wang left the meditation room, Master Hamil immediately checked whether there was blood on their hands and clothes.When it was confirmed that there was no difference between them and before they entered, Master Hamil was relieved, and Hammurabi removed his finger from the power switch of the Garrison Spear.There is no stronger warrior in the material universe than the Praetorian Guards. Hammurabi thought he had the ability to rush into the meditation room and kill those who opposed the emperor, but then the emperor stretched out his hand to Hammurabi and sent the guards The spear is in his hand.

Master Hamil originally wanted to ask about the results of the negotiation, but now he didn't want to ask, because Master Xiao Wang's expression said everything.The Garrison Spear weighs about 120 kilograms, and the weight of the explosive shells loaded into the magazine can be ignored for the time being. The sharp blade of the Garrison Spear is used to cut armor instead of flesh, and no human being can withstand such an attack.

"They stuffed crazy women into the library." Master Xiao Wang looked around and found that no one was willing to speak, so he could only speak. "To make matters worse, they also let go of the library's defenses a little bit."

　Ask for a ticket!
