People are forbidden by magic, just become mercenaries

The girl with small canine teeth is smiling and waving the folding fan in her hand. The girl with the hat like fairy ears is enjoying the tiramisu in front of her. She seems to have a good opinion of this dessert bought from a London coffee shop. .

"But this 'boat' is made of paper! And we're diving nearly 1000 meters below the sea, so it's normal to be worried!!"

"Heh puff puff~ I think little Mary is afraid of this because she can't swim~"

"Jane!! Sister Meili, look at her!!"

"Okay~ Jane don't play tricks on Mary-chan anymore, it's not a lady's behavior to be so noisy."

"Hey......"

He has striking red hair and wears a black priest's attire.Steele sighed, handling the transfer of information with the Puritan sect by himself in a corner.

Originally, his latest mission was supposed to deal with a witch association in the outskirts of London, but suddenly he received a contact from the Puritan sect.

[Which mercenary calls for you to accompany me, the archbishop has already agreed.Pack up and go to the Plymouth Naval Base (hmnbplymouth) in southwest England to gather. 】

Then, as a fire rune magician, Stiyl was dragged to this sea, which can be said to be a combat environment that he was not good at dealing with.

By the way, the other three girls are all magicians who have recently joined the Puritan sect.

And the most interesting thing about the three of them is that they all wanted to become magicians because they heard the story that Sigurd summoned the four angels alone, and then defeated a national sect with one soldier.

Even the magic name reveals the meaning of being on par with Sigurd.

As for the "master" that the girl named "Jane" said, it was their own statement. Although Sigurd himself did not admit it, he did not directly express his objection.

As for the Puritan sect, they didn't say much. If these three girls could really be tied to the mercenary as "apprentices" by the Puritan sect, then Britain would be in blood.

Even if they can't be tied, as long as Sigurd recognizes them as his "disciples", then the disciples will be in trouble. This master can't stand by and watch, and Britain will not lose.

And even if you don't recognize your "disciple", as long as you learn the skills of a magician from Sigurd, the "strongest gold", it will be beneficial to improve the combat power of the Puritans and the United Kingdom.

After all, a similar example is preceded by Stiles. Compared with when Stiles first joined the Church of Necessary Evil, the improvement in strength is not as simple as a star, and all of this is also due to Sigurd teaching.

Currently, Steele's spells not only have a strong Nordic and Christian flavor, but some of them have obvious traces of the "Golden Dawn" style

The most typical one is that of ten rings rubbing sparks, based on the "Sparks" and "Crosses" of "Golden Dawn" member, John William Brody-Innes.

"To be honest, this mission is really not 'safe'. Why on earth do you have to follow?"

"Because the master is coming."

"We also want to learn skills from the master. It must be better to talk about it in actual combat, right?"

"Well, and this time the mission is at sea, my water elemental magic will also come in handy."

Stiyl looked helplessly at the three girls. In his opinion, all three of them were at the level of "interns", with almost zero actual combat experience, and their own magical abilities could only be said to be qualified, and there was nothing special about them. The place.

It's really not that Steele is arrogant. Although he is only 11 years old now, he is a real genius.Over the years, through Sigurd's teachings and his own research, he even developed six "rune runes" that belonged only to him.

But in Sigurd's words:

[You are just the "discoverer" who unearthed other runes that are not recognized by the general public, not the "creator" of the runes.Seriously, don't you think you can match Odin?You're too arrogant, kid. 】

Although it was a bit shocking, Sigurd also admitted that in terms of rune magic, Stiyl was a once-in-a-century genius.

"Don't worry, even if this thing is directly hit by Stiyl's 'King of Hunting Witches (Innocentius)', it is impossible to burn through it, let alone such a little water pressure."

Seeing Sigurd so confident, the blond witch named Meili looked around.

This is a long and dark space.The height and width are about eight meters, and the length is thirty meters. The walls and ceiling are not square, but curved like a tunnel, and seem to be made of old black wood.

It feels as calculated as a wooden roller coaster post.

"Paper is made of wood, and then wood is made of ships. As long as you make good use of this connection, you can create such a mobile spiritual outfit made entirely of paper."

"Is the name engraved on it the guardian angel that symbolizes 'fire', Michael?"

"That's right. The story of Michael's restraint of the highest fallen angel was used to form an 'enchantment' to 'seal' us inside. Even if we encounter a direct missile hit, we cannot be penetrated."

Sigurd affirmed Mei Li's meticulous observation. In fact, Sigurd would not object to imparting knowledge as the "master" of these three girls. Part of the reason was that they had corresponding "talents".

Although it cannot be said that talent determines everything, in terms of magic, it is an undeniable fact that a magician with "talent" can easily get rid of "ordinary people" by several blocks.

A small dog can't become a big dog no matter how hard he tries, and a penguin can't take to the sky no matter how hard he tries.

That is to say, the so-called incompetent people are useless no matter what they do.

People with "talent" and "talent" are not going to become something, but have the so-called "capacity" from the moment of birth.

Magicians and ability users are the same, hard work can only make up for the lower limit, and talent and talent are the factors that determine the upper limit.

Sigurd is not the kind of "talent" supremacist, but "strength" supremacy.

But he also cannot deny that a "talented" person can easily access areas that "ordinary people" can't reach in their entire lives.

This is true in science, and even more so in magic.

Chapter 71: Chaotic music and eerie fog

In the enclosed space, a group of people also fought and fought all the way, without feeling any sense of urgency at all.

Only Steele has been sending all the information back to the Puritan backup force, and did not join this "afternoon tea party".

But instead of saying that Steele is a "workaholic", it is better to say that he is introverted, especially when there is a girl about his age, Mei Li, at the scene, and Mary Bette and Jane are also nine years old, who are not as old as Steele. It's not too far either.

This "precocious" red-haired priest in the physical sense is not used to sitting and drinking tea with girls, so he is "busy with work" in a serious manner.

"arrive......"

Putting down the coffee cup, Sigurd casually glanced at the black "dome" above.

As if he could penetrate the black outer wall, Sigurd squinted his eyes and looked up into the sky.

"The horoscope is wrong..."

"Huh? Astrology? I can't even see the stars?"

"Jane, how can master be like you. But master, is there any problem with abnormal astrology?"

Looking at Maribet who was asking questions in a hurry, Sigurd began to explain directly.

As mentioned before, this mercenary has no aversion to teaching knowledge.

"For the Cthulhu system, the return of the stars is the time when the old rulers wake up and move. On the earth, the most obvious manifestation is that when the stars return to their positions, R'lyeh will rise from the bottom of the sea, and the great Existence will awaken..."

"Are those guys calling Cthulhu?"

"Eh!?"*3

Looking at the three girls who were startled by Stiyl's words, Sigurd waved his hand.

"If you can't wake up, where are you going to wake up a guy who doesn't exist in this 'world'. And if you really wake up, it will really be the end of the world."

"I see......"

"Scared me."

"right?"

For Sigurd, who had no sense of urgency about summoning Cthulhu, his brisk tone and affirmative statement also calmed the emotions of several others.

After all, it would be too bad if you had to fight a guy of this size on the field.

"However, the city of R'lyeh may really float up. After all, if this thing is regarded as a 'temple', it is not difficult to pull him out of the water with human power. And although the deity of Cthulhu may not be there, the other party will make a ' A copycat's squishy tentacle monster would be fine."

"Eh!?"*3

The smirking Sigurd ignored the three screaming girls, and tapped the ground with the soles of his shoes on his own. The regular knocking sound caused the entire "ship" to respond.

Before the other people made doubtful voices, they suddenly felt the effect of inertia.Except for Sigurd himself, the bodies of the other four swayed back slightly.This tunnel-like facility is moving.

The frightened three girls couldn't help being stiff. The younger Mary Bette and Jane grabbed Mei Li's arms from left to right. The three girls were startled by the sudden change and curled up together.

Snapped! !

The sound of the water film breaking came from outside the "tunnel".The line of sight of the group shook violently vertically.

Right in front of the three girls who still couldn't comprehend all of this, the tunnel-shaped roof split longitudinally from the center.With a sound similar to the rattling of wood, it opened like a double-sided door.

The moon can be seen glowing the color of a light bulb in the night sky.

The smell of the tide came to the nose.

Although the overall "hull" did not feel shaken by the waves because of the technique, but as if they were really sailing on a boat, the steps of the three women staggered unconsciously, although it was only a psychological effect.

"Stand firm, we're going 'up'."

"Yes!!!!"*3

Looking at the three girls who forced themselves to respond, Sigurd just shrugged helplessly.

With the sound of "cracking", the floor about [-] meters long suddenly rose up.

The vibration of the gears can be heard, and the height of the floor has reached the ceiling after 40 seconds.

What I see before me is the sea at night.

The place where the group stood was thirty meters in length and eight meters in width, a football-like structure.

The open ceiling extends to both sides like wings, as if an artificial island made of a lot of wood appeared on the sea.

And about 500 meters in front of the group of people, on the huge exploration ship, except for the most basic light, there was no sign of any living people's activities.

A dead ship floats in the sea in the middle of the night.It feels like a ghost ship from an American horror movie.

"Although I heard that it is very big, it is really too big to look at it from such a close distance."

"It's nothing. Academy City's Antarctic research ship is much bigger than this one. It's the ultimate monster ship that can accommodate more than five hundred staff members and hundreds of crew members."

Operating this tentatively called "ship", of course a large-scale transport spiritual equipment, Sigurd cast his sights on the huge ship in the sea fog.

The faintly visible exploration ship looks like a monster floating on the sea.

Because it is still in the deep sea, the ship cannot anchor, and because of the death of the crew, the entire hull has lost power, and now it can only drift quietly with the current.

"It's like 'naglfar' from Norse mythology."

"Hey, is it a big ship full of enemies?"

"The enemy may be a ghost!"

"Jane! Don't say such scary things!"

Different from the noisy three girls, as the elite of the Church of Necessary Evil, and a professional magician who has experienced many battles and killed several small witch associations by himself.
