Demons Beside You (The Demons Beside Me)

"What is that thing hidden under the library?"

"It's not a hide, it's a seal." Alas said, "That thing has been sealed underneath for two hundred years. No one knows what it is."

Chen Zhao sneered twice. The history of this thing is really long.

How old is New York's history?

How old is the history of the United States?

This thing has been sealed for two hundred years.

Fali was also listening.

She is quite interested in these things.

But she also knew that Chen Zhao might take another risk.

To deal with an ancient existence, this seems to be Chen Zhao's mission.

Fali is also worried about Chen Zhao's safety.

Of course, Chen Zhao would not admit what kind of mission this was.

It's just trouble that comes to your door.

What can be done now?

Pushing Arras into the rain? And then close the door?

If he really did this, Fali would probably despise him to death.

Why fight? Nothing to be afraid of.

In the past six months, I haven't encountered any monsters or monsters.

A two-hundred-year-old monster is not necessarily that difficult to deal with.

However, the powerful witch coven.

He was actually burned completely by a fire like this.

This is something Chen Zhao didn't expect.

There are so many witches, but none of them can do elemental magic?

It wouldn't be so bad if we lost water magic, right?

"Since a few years ago, the seal in the library has become unstable. Every once in a while, witches will be bewitched by the power leaked from that thing. As long as they come into contact with that thing, they will all become corrupt without exception. Witch," Arras said.

"Then how do you tell whether a witch is bewitched? Or take you for example, how do I know that you are not bewitched, and then you come here to lie to me?"

"I can't prove it," Alas replied.

"So where is the magic book you mentioned? Bring it to me and have a look."

Alas looked at Chen Zhao, hesitated for a while, and then untied his hair.

"Can I have a pair of scissors?"

"do what?"

"Haircut."

"Have your hair cut? Here? Are you free?"

Fali gave Alas a pair of scissors, and Alas put his hair in front of his face, and then the scissors cut it.

The cut hair was piled together by Alas, and then Alas snapped his fingers, and the hair burned.

In the ashes of the flames, a magic book gradually emerged.

"What kind of magic is this?"

"You Chinese have a saying, which is that the body, hair and skin are influenced by the parents. My teacher hid the magic book in my blood." Alas said.

Chen Zhao picked up the magic book from the fire and read it.

Chen Zhao saw the confinement magic that Catherine used on him after it was done, the Cage of Light.

There are also a lot of sealing magics, all of them.

Some complex, some simple.

And there are some seals in it that also work on Chen Zhao.

This also reminded Chen Zhao that he was not invincible.

So I still need to keep a low profile in the future.

If a person deliberately wants to deal with himself, it is not completely impossible.

"Which sealing magic is used to seal that thing?"

"This." Alas pointed at a pattern: "Star Spirit Seal."

Chen Zhao could understand most of the seals.

However, this seal is a bit complicated. It should be based on the star position in the starry sky as a guide for sealing magic.

"This magic is activated by the direction of the Big Dipper. It requires seven people with magic power to activate it."

"Seven people? Then find someone from the Wizarding Association."

"The Wizards' Guild...the Wizards' Guild has also been completely wiped out."

"What?"

"Last night, Charlotte and Cindy attacked the wizarding society overnight, and all the members of the wizarding society were wiped out."

"Are wizards so weak? Charlotte and Cindy wiped out all the wizards?"

"The Wizards' Association is not strong to begin with, and the strength of Charlotte and Cindy has become very terrifying, and they are even close to the strength of the Great Witch."

"What do they want to do? Or what does that thing want to do?"

"I have no idea."

"Forget it, don't worry about it for now. I think that thing might wait until the rain stops and then come out to cause trouble. Rain and other things are the most annoying thing."

"..."

Fali took Alas to change her clothes. Although Alas was too frightened before, staying with Chen Zhao could at least make her feel at ease.

Chen Zhao is also the only person she knows who can protect her.

It's raining harder and harder in New York City, and water has begun to accumulate in some places.

The news on TV began to show some disaster-stricken places.

Chen Zhao found that the water level on the coastline was much higher.

Although the villa area is still several meters away from the water level.

However, if the waterline continues to rise, seawater is likely to pour in.

"Chen, will this seawater flow in?"

"No, even if it rains at this rate, it will take half a day for the water level to rise to the height of the villa area."

Then...then the rain seemed to get heavier.

In the afternoon, the water level finally rose to the height of the villa area.

At this moment, the entire New York City has been affected by the disaster, and there is water everywhere.

Everyone could only go up to the second floor of the villa.

"That's why I hate going down there." Chen Zhao and Fali were sitting on the balcony, looking at the heavy rain falling outside.

"Chen, I feel like the rain is abnormal. Do you think it's some kind of magic?"

Fali is not familiar with supernatural powers and only has intuitive ideas.

"I don't know, I hope not." Chen Zhao looked at the pouring rain: "I hate going out for activities when it rains. I hope that sealed thing can be more honest and responsible."

"Do you really dislike rain?"

"Very annoying, very annoying," Chen Zhao said.

"Do you have any bad memories that happened on a rainy day?"

"Fali, don't read too many novels. My past is not that complicated, I'm just annoying."

Fali leaned on Chen Zhao's shoulder, even though the sea water had poured in, flooding the first floor.

But she still felt safe, and it seemed that as long as this man was around, she would not panic.

What Chen Zhao can still accept now is that the electricity hasn't stopped yet.

Water has entered the first floor, but the power supply is still continuing.

Are all the administrators of high-end communities so arrogant?

If any residents were electrocuted at this time, I wonder how they would feel.

According to U.S. law, if an electric shock occurs in this situation, the resident will almost immediately be sued.

Almost all channels on TV were broadcasting this sudden heavy rain. Without any warning, this heavy rain just came, and no one could tell when this heavy rain would end.

Many people were trapped by the heavy rain and were waiting for rescue.

In some neighborhoods, the water has even reached the second floor.

The originally well-developed sewer system is probably now blocked and paralyzed.

The place where Chen Zhao and Fali live now is quite good. After all, it is a coastal community, and the water level has just reached the first floor.

However, this will be the most dangerous for them. Once strong winds blow, the waves may turn into huge waves.
