Mystery: Good Witch

Chapter 838 The mysterious "wizard"

The "Black Knight"'s "Shadow Command" that controls the enemy's shadow, and the "Blade of Flesh and Soul" that can cut through all defenses and even attack conceptual targets such as the "Mirror World", Angel had already experienced both from the saint of the Aurora Society when he attacked Mr. X.

Therefore, when her legs were bound by the shadow and the giant sword was chopped on her head, she did not panic. Instead, she felt a sense of familiarity in her heart.

I met the members of the "Aurora Club" again!
boom--

The edges of the "Angelica Blade" in her hand ignited with blue flames, and the scorching temperature instantly burned the mutated shadow under her feet to ashes. Even the giant sword in the hand of the Black Knight was burning because of the characteristic of "destruction", and the momentum that seemed to cut everything was reduced.

Bang! The two weapons, one long and one short, collided with each other. The wriggling black substance and the high-temperature flames instantly mixed together, and then separated from each other. The flame color turned orange-yellow, and the temperature dropped. The black sword edge with a corrupt breath broke into two halves again. The tip of the sword turned into flesh and blood, returned to the surface of the black knight's armor, and merged into the lightless darkness.

Before he could summon the same giant sword again, Angel retracted his arm, held the sword flat with both hands, and stabbed the tall black knight directly in the chest.

A bit of black cursed flame ignited at the tip of the sword, instantly covering the entire sword and replenishing the consumed flame.

The black flames merged harmoniously with the flames that gradually changed from orange to yellow-white, forming a gray, strange flame that did not exist in a normal environment. It carried an aura of destruction and was about to penetrate the black knight's breastplate and pierce into his body without any hindrance.

The eyes on the black knight's visor suddenly brightened and turned into two spots of light.

"Psychic piercing!"

Angel's head suddenly felt a sharp pain, as if a dagger had been inserted into it and stirred it a few times.

The pain was sharp and short-lived, but it was enough for Angel to stop what he was doing.

The next second, she was swept into flying mirror fragments by a giant sword. The sword continued to move forward, cutting the big trees on both sides in half, and the leaves fell like rain.

Behind a tree that required two people to hug, Angel's figure was outlined. There was a deep mark on her clothes, revealing the smooth skin underneath. It was the damage caused by the "Blade of Flesh and Soul" crossing the mirror world.

If she had used the "mirror substitute" a little later, it would not only be her clothes that would be damaged, but her flesh and blood and even her soul!

But her hesitation was not without reward. The moment she was hit, a black flame that could annihilate spirits and burn flesh and blood ignited on the Black Knight's body. At this time, the flame of curse was spreading over his body, penetrating the gaps in his armor, entering the interior, chasing after all spirits, using them as fuel to burn everything.

This is the experience Angel gained from fighting against the "Secret Prayers" many times. Their flesh and blood magic is most afraid of the black flames that target spirituality!

boom--

A huge flame ignited at the edge of the woods. The black armor of the Black Knight was surrounded by even higher black flames, almost becoming a burning torch. Angel grabbed the straight sword and jumped out from behind the tree. He infused his spirituality into the weapon, making it light up the blades on both sides again, and was about to step forward to make another attack.

She didn't believe that a Sequence 4 would die so easily under the black flames.

Sure enough, the armor in the black flames twisted and deformed, and quickly turned into a black shadow, almost blending into the ground, and moved quickly under the sunlight, but it did not try to move away from Angel, but approached him rapidly. The man and the shadow walked towards each other and collided with each other in an instant.

The shadow "grew" from the ground in an instant, and transformed into a "black knight" in armor and armed with sharp weapons. He nimbly dodged Angel's stab and chopped the giant sword down on his head.

But the giant sword, which was almost longer than a normal person's height, was very slow in close combat. Angel didn't even use the "mirror substitute" and went behind the Black Knight. She stomped the shadow under her to death with a black flame, and then held her blade with both hands and launched a charged attack.

A teeth-grinding sound of metal friction was heard as Angelica's sharp blade pierced into the Black Knight's armor from the back of his waist and left from his right shoulder, creating a huge wound that almost split the Black Knight in two. There were even signs of melting on the edge of the crack in the black armor, and the flesh and blood inside was burning with flames, pouring out from this wound and other gaps in the armor.

The next moment, the black armor that was more than two meters tall and looked like an ancient giant shattered into thousands of black fragments, which fell to the ground with black and blue flames, and then faded and disappeared.

Is this a "mirror double"?
Angel frowned slightly, not feeling too surprised.

It would be surprising if a "Black Knight" who was promoted from a "Shepherd" did not shepherd any souls and fought only with his own abilities.

She immediately spread the disease, sweeping across the surrounding woods, the nearby meadow, and even deep into the "Fountain of Youth" in the withered yellow grass, capturing the Black Knight who used the grazing "witch" soul to escape a fatal blow.

But these mystical diseases were like a drop in the ocean. Apart from the rapid death of insects in the forest and maggots in the mud, no real "victims" appeared within Angel's perception range.

He was herding a "despair" witch, fighting my occult disease?

Angel realized something and looked at the grass in front of him.

In the sunlight, a figure was outlined. It was a lady wearing a black robe, with her hair and half of her face hidden in the hood, leaving only her fair chin and eye-catching red lips exposed.

Would the demigod-level "herding" also reflect the original appearance of the soul on the "Black Knight"... Angel was dumbfounded as he watched the sturdy man who was chopped into pieces by a sword turn into a weak lady in the blink of an eye, with various thoughts flashing through his mind.

Then, she saw the witch of Despair draw out two cursed black flames beside her, causing the flames to explode, dyeing the black flame waves with an orange-yellow sheen.

Then, two new figures walked out of the flames. They were the "Black Knight" and a short young man wearing a short shirt and wide-leg pants, with short blond hair like a hedgehog.

Flame jumps!

No, it wasn’t the Black Knight who had herded the “Fortune Teller” that appeared with the real “Fortune Teller”, but…

The Black Knight's slower movements, his careless tactics of not caring about being attacked, and the ending of him suddenly turning into mirror fragments all appeared in Angel's mind one by one, and she immediately thought of a terrible possibility.

"A strange wizard?"

she asked cautiously.

The Black Knight, the Witch of Despair, and the young man who looked a bit like an Intis man all smiled in the same way.

This unified movement made Angel feel as if he had seen the pranks that Klein occasionally arranged using the secret puppets, and he confirmed his guess without any doubt.

But why is there a strange wizard guarding near the "Fountain of Youth" controlled by the "Witch Cult"?
If the Black Knight can be explained by the cooperation between the "Aurora Society" and the witches, then the "Fortune Teller" path where the "Weird Mage" is located is almost entirely controlled by the mysterious organization of the Secret Order, and has nothing to do with the "Witch Sect"... By the way, most members of this organization are Intis people, no wonder one of the secret puppets he controls has a strong Intis style... But this may also be his deliberate misleading, the "Fortune Teller" is the best at deceiving people.

Angel kept recalling every bit about the origin and abilities of the "Strange Mage" in his mind. Seeing that these three were obviously secret puppets, and at least two of them were demigods, the men and women kept strange smiles and did not try to attack. He simply asked:
"What is your purpose in waiting here? Guarding the Fountain of Youth? Or waiting for a certain witch to be promoted?"

These were the only two reasons she could think of. Otherwise, which demigod would waste decades of his life hiding in this special mirror world, spending one difficult year after another on an isolated island?

Even if she had the company of a witch, and could even listen to the whispers of the "True Creator" heard by the secret doll, it would be too boring... She complained in her heart, and saw the "Black Knight" standing to the side, who looked like the leader of the three, speaking:

"I said, we just get what we need... I am bound by a certain contract and I must drive away those witches who don't belong to the 'Witch Sect', that's all."

On the other side of the witch, the blond Intis youth took over the conversation in a frivolous manner:
"So, you just leave and no one will get hurt."

He used the Intis language, which was consistent with the identity of a secret puppet. Was it also some kind of "acting"? Angel couldn't help but compare this strange wizard who served the "Witch Cult" with Klein, and was quite tempted by his suggestion.

With her current strength, she has no chance of winning against a Trickster who has released Despair and the Black Knight. If the opponent has no intention of chasing her, then I will leave first.

Her thoughts suddenly became slow and her limbs went into a state of paralysis.

Her "spiritual thread" was controlled by the evil wizard!
As the companion of a trickster, Angel naturally knew all the elements of this powerful extraordinary ability. It could only provide initial control over targets within 150 meters of the trickster, and it would take at least 3 seconds.

Although there is no "trickster" within 150 meters of her, through the transmission of power between the "secret puppets", the trickster can extend the distance of the line of control of the spirit body, and can reach the upper limit of the control distance of the secret puppets, which is more than one thousand meters!

This means that the "weird wizard" may be hidden anywhere in the core area of ​​the island.

Although her disease can spread to this range, it will take more time, and it is being interfered with and offset by another witch of "despair". This time is enough for her to become a secret doll dozens of times...

In her dull eyes, the "Black Knight" suddenly transformed the black shadow on his body into a giant sword, jumped out in the black flames guided by the "Despair" witch, and slashed down at her from the air. The blond young man smiled and snapped his fingers, pointing at Angel, as if conveying some kind of power to her.

But apart from the secret holy emblem on his wrist becoming increasingly colder, Angel didn't feel anything else unusual.

Of course, the idea of ​​becoming increasingly stagnant was not included.

boom--

The giant sword fell, and "Angel"'s soul and flesh were separated in an instant. His body was cut in two, and his soul was shattered into pieces by the power of "corruption".

Then, under the gaze of the "Black Knight", their outlines faded and gradually disappeared.

That's a stand-in!

Without words, the shared thoughts between the secret dolls immediately understood everything that was happening. The witch in black robe kept flashing her eyes and found the place where Angel was hiding in the "mirror world". The black knight slashed to his side with a sword without any hesitation.

There was a faint sound of a mirror breaking, and a deep, dim light flashed above the empty grass, and Angel's figure appeared again.

She held the "Angelica's Blade" in her right hand and placed it diagonally over her left shoulder, cleverly blocking the "Blade of Flesh and Soul". Then, when the opponent's giant sword fell to the ground, she raised the straight sword with her backhand, pointing the tip of the sword at the "Black Knight" and the "Despair" witch behind him.

A blue-purple flame that could destroy everything appeared from the tip of the sword, piercing through the black armor, across a distance of a hundred meters, through the witch's black robe, and burning everything it touched to ashes.
