I'm not that kind of orc

I smacked his face with a fist and sent him flying to the wall of the room.

"Ah! Mr. Bullock! This time it's true, I can see it!" Alsena shouted with bright eyes when she saw me.

So I can't be touched by you like this...

Then, we all focused our attention on the impostor.

He tried his best to stand up against the wall, his whole body was bruised, and he looked very embarrassed.

I noticed that his eyes were fixed on the mirror behind me, as if looking for a chance to escape through the mirror.

Without hesitation, I kicked behind me and shattered the mirror first: "I won't give you this chance, give up."

"Intent to murder His Highness, death penalty!" Vikas showed his claws at the counterfeit, "Although it is a counterfeit, it can finally tear open the throat of you, an orc..."

Hey, I don't care if the enemy looks like me to vent their grievances against me, but there's no need to do it in front of me.

At this moment, a fog of blood surged in front of the counterfeit.

Eh?Beast Soul Summoning?

I froze for a moment, and immediately became alert.

Can this guy even copy my spells! ?

"Stand back!" I yelled at Vikas and Althea.

The blood mist turned into two wargs, and they rushed towards me and Arsena respectively. Wikas blocked Arsena in time, and then he and I reached out and grabbed the beast soul's neck at the same time, slamming it hard. Press down.

But the impostor took the opportunity to break through the door and escaped from the room.

I immediately broke the neck of the beast soul with all my strength, turning it back into a cloud of blood mist, and then rushed out of the room to chase it out.A wolf Vikas can still handle it, the most urgent thing is to catch that damn impostor.

The guy's build was the same as mine, and his footsteps were loud when he ran. I followed the sound of his footsteps and quickly saw his back.Although his physical ability is the same as mine, his injuries are more severe than mine, and his full running speed is not as fast as mine.

Along the corridor of the mansion, the distance between me and him is shortening a little bit.

But at this moment, a woman figure stepped out from the corner ahead.

Oh no!If someone is taken hostage at this time——

Before I could yell out, the impostor suddenly jumped out, wrapped the man tightly in his arms with his arms, and then turned around towards me with his arm, and put a hand on the hostage's chin Up: "Don't move! Or I'll break this woman's neck!"

I stopped immediately, and then looked at the person held hostage by this counterfeit with a dazed expression.

The dragon queen who passed by and was caught by the fake me looked at me expressionlessly, and then looked at the fake who looked like me who was grabbing her, without saying a word.

Seeing that we didn't make a sound, the counterfeit thought he had controlled the situation, so he couldn't help showing a smug smile.

But the smile disappeared within two seconds of blooming.

Because the queen he was holding suddenly turned into a dragon claw, turned around and broke free from him, and at the same time sent him flying out with a palm that hadn't reacted yet.

Under the strange force of the giant dragon, the poor guy didn't even have time to scream, crashing into the wall of the mansion and flying out.

"Hmm..." Then, the queen shifted her gaze to me without saying a word, frowned and turned her head to the side, as if she was thinking about something.

"I'm real!" I quickly raised my hands and shouted, lest this guy rush over and knock me out.

Mirror Devil (4)

After the counterfeit goods were beaten out, I ran to the edge of the wall hole and looked outside.

The queen's strange power made the guy fly more than ten meters away after penetrating the wall, and landed in the training ground outside the mansion, rolling like a ball for several times before stopping.Even if he copied the strong body of an orc like me, he couldn't bear such a blow at all.He lay motionless on the ground, unresponsive, like a corpse.

It's so miserable... even I feel a little sympathetic to him.

"Who is that guy? Do you have a twin brother who likes to die?" The queen blew on her paws and asked me casually.

"It's the enemy. That guy has a special ability to pretend to be someone else." I briefly explained to her, "I won't bother you, I'll catch him first."

After finishing my speech, I stepped out through the big hole punched in the wall.

I didn't rush forward in a hurry, but approached him cautiously step by step.

This strange guy can copy my beast soul summoning, maybe it can also copy some other powers, so don't be careless...

Facts proved that my caution was correct. When I approached him with only ten steps left, he suddenly opened his eyes, slapped the ground with his palms and struggled to get up. At the same time, suddenly appeared behind him A ghostly human figure with a tomahawk appeared.

I opened my eyes wide immediately, and subconsciously called out the power deep in my soul.

The strange force that merged with me responded to me, and I also felt a collection of living fire emerging from behind me-a half-length giant's projection that was exactly the same as that behind the imposter appeared behind me .

Then, across the distance of several meters, we controlled the giants behind us and swung their battle axes at each other.At the moment when the battle axes collided, the huge fire of life overflowed with the impact, and a shock wave centered on the point of impact of the ax blades and spread to the surroundings like an explosion.

I was shaken back a few steps, but that guy was not so lucky, because he was seriously injured, he couldn't stand firm under the impact, was thrown out, rolled on the ground a few times, at the same time he summoned The figure of the giant that came out also dissipated.

Grandma's, even the "Ancestral Heroic Spirit" bestowed on me by Azak has also been copied. The copying ability of this dog monster is a bit exaggerated.

There is just a small detail that is of concern-the hand of the "ancestral hero" we summoned is the opposite, mine is the right hand, and the one he summoned is the left hand.

Like a reflection in a mirror.

The imposter didn't give up yet, he got up again and fled towards the edge of the training ground in a staggered manner.It's just strange that there was no exit in the direction he fled from, and there was a pile of weapons by the wall.

It's all hurt like this, so what's the point of using a weapon, not to mention Her Majesty the Queen who just knocked him flying, now he is fully armed and may not be able to beat me empty-handed.

But when I looked in the direction he was facing, I suddenly woke up with a start.

There was a siege shield that was huge enough to protect the whole body, and it was polished to a shiny finish—this kind of reflective shield was specially designed in such a way that it could reflect light and interfere with the sight of the archers during the siege.

And now, here it is a mirror, a lifeline for the impostor.

I tried my best to chase after it, but it was too late, the shield had already revealed the figure of the impostor.In the next second, the body of the seriously injured impostor became transparent just like before, and then disappeared.

I chased up to the shield, and the shield reflected my appearance, and I couldn't see anything unusual.

Tsk, it seems that he escaped.

Ten minutes later, Arsena and I found Roland and told her everything in detail.

With Roland's knowledge, he might know something.

"According to your description, you probably met a Mirror Demon." After listening to my description, Roland replied thoughtfully.

"What's that?" I subconsciously asked.

"A very rare mutated demon. Unlike the shadow demons and fog demons you have seen before, the mirror demons are basically high-level demons of the great lord level. For mages, the mirror has a role to play. The image of a 'door'. And the mirror demon has the ability to open the entrance and exit of the abyss and this world through the mirror." Roland frowned slightly as he spoke, "Well, this kind of demon usually cannot use the demon ring or The abyss ritual is used, and it is said that in terms of the scale of magic power alone, the magic power of some mirror demons can almost rival the demon king..."

"Hey, don't be kidding, that guy copied me perfectly, but his level is not much better than mine. He was taught a lesson by Arsena at the time." I didn't believe it at all.

"It's not as simple as you think. The huge magic power of mirror demons is based on a restricted basis. Their magic power is very chaotic and has no stable form. They can only obtain form by copying other existences, otherwise they just play together It’s nothing more than a magic block without power. It’s like a dictionary without a catalog. Although the content is rich, if there is no catalog index, it will not be of practical value. But correspondingly, as long as he can obtain a shape that can be copied, As long as it is within the upper limit of his magic power, no matter how strong the opponent is, he can copy it perfectly." Roland explained to us carefully, "And the Mirror Demon can only use the mirror as a medium to copy, and it can only use this to arrange the entrance and exit. The abyss enters the present."

"Then since this kind of demon can't be used with props and rituals, how did the enemy manage to make such a powerful demon obey them?" Arsena asked, raising her hand.

"I'm afraid they negotiated directly with the mirror demon. After all, the enemy holds the corpse of the demon king that all demons covet. Even if they just cut off a hand as a reward, it is easy to persuade these high-level demons whose intelligence and civilization are comparable. Help them." Roland made a guess.

"The mirror demon first copied the messenger we sent to the Marquis and then came back. This time, the goal is to replace Alsena and control this territory instead of her as the lord. It is a tactic of drawing salary from the bottom. If this is the case, then I think that stubborn Marquis may have been replaced." I also expressed my speculation.

"Well, everything can be explained in this way." Arsena punched her palm, "Then the next thing will be easy. We can skip the negotiations and directly enter the territory of the Marquis to expose that guy. Then get rid of that counterfeit!"

Mirror Devil (5)

"Father...was replaced by a demon?" Bridget stood in front of us, her eyes widened in disbelief, "Then now Father..."

After speculating that the Marquis might have been replaced by a demon, we found Bridget right away and told her what had happened.

"Unfortunately, although it is a bit cruel to you..." After a brief silence, Roland stepped forward, looked into her eyes cautiously and said seriously, "There is a time limit of several days for the copying of the Mirror Demon. For long-term replication, they must devour the heart of the target. The rebels want to control your territory, and they will not leave hidden dangers for themselves. Therefore, your father may have been assassinated long ago."

Bridget opened her eyes without blinking, her face was bloodless, her body trembled slightly and she staggered two steps backwards. Arsena, who was standing beside her, grabbed her shoulders and helped her up. Living.

Thinking about it, this kind of sad news of losing a loved one would hit her a hundred times more than when she read that letter.

But right now we have to let her know, because we need her help to expose the false Marquis.

"I know, this news should have a great impact on you..." Arsena grabbed Bridget's shoulders, who was about to faint on the spot, forced her to stand still, and said, looking directly into her eyes, "but now you There is still something that needs to be done, the demon who may have killed your father, and is now acting evil in the name of your father is still alive! We need to convey the truth to your territory now, and we can no longer let your people be deceived In the past. But for our allegations to be convincing, you must come forward!"

When I came back to my senses, I suddenly realized that I was staring at Arthena intently.

At this moment, I suddenly remembered the memories I met with her in the annex by the forest when the magic sword incident happened, and she was devastated because of the basket that was stabbed.

At that time, she was similar to Bridget now.

But now, her position has been changed, and the experience and lessons she experienced at that time have transformed her, making her far stronger and fiercer than before, like a sharpened blade, which is awe-inspiring.

"Now there is no time for you to be sad, Miss Bridget!" Alsena emphasized every word, "If you still want to avenge your father!"

"I..." As if touched, the trembling of Bridget's shoulders stopped, and Arsena looked at each other with flickering eyes.

"I captured the remaining magic power of the Mirror Demon from the siege shield where he escaped, and followed it up briefly. Judging from the traces of the magic power, he probably returned to the Molten Iron Fortress and disguised himself as your father again." Roland He added, "Mirror demons can escape by opening the door to the abyss through the mirror surface, and then go back to this world through the 'door' that was opened to complete the teleportation. This kind of space magic is extremely complicated, even for demons of the great lord level. It is also a great consumption. In the short term, he should not be able to continue teleporting and escaping like this. To solve him, he must be done as soon as possible."

Under their persuasion, Bridget finally regained some calmness slowly. She gritted her teeth and finally responded with a choked voice: "I see, I want...I want to avenge my father!"

"Then get ready to go right away, to the Molten Iron Fortress! I will go with you to expose that demon. As long as you use a holy light, you can reveal that guy's true colors!" Arsena clapped her hands boldly Bridget's shoulders.

"Wait a minute, Your Highness." Wikas, who has been following Alsena, suggested, "Even if you want to go early, we must first gather enough troops as a guarantee. Since the fake marquis has invaded the Northwest Territory, Then the troops deployed in the molten iron fortress on the front line should not be too small."

But Arsena shook her head: "No, if we gather more people to march, it will only leave more time for the other party to prepare to deal with us, which will make us even more disadvantaged."

Indeed, it must be done as early as possible, not only to seize the opportunity when he cannot escape, the mirror demon is completely different from the demon lords we have encountered before, not only surpassing ordinary demons in strength.He is very cunning, he can act as a lord to deceive his family and people, and he can also come up with tactics to sneak into our side as a spy.If he returns to the fortress, he will definitely continue to play the role of the lord and try to mobilize troops to protect himself. We can't give him time to prepare.

"But if you only take a few light horses and rush over there with whips, it is very likely that he will send troops to launch a surprise attack before we file charges. You still plan to go by yourself, isn't this a sheep in the mouth of a tiger?" Wikas said calmly, "Negotiations must be based on a sufficiently hard fist. We must ensure that the other party is forced to negotiate the strength of the troops so that the soldiers in the fortress will not blindly follow the command of the fake Marquis."

"It's okay, we have that Her Majesty the Empress here." Arsena clasped her hands, "In the current situation, I can only ask her for help once more."

"Wait, wouldn't that be dangerous?" I couldn't help interjecting, "That demon can perfectly copy other people's appearance and abilities through the mirror, if he copies to a dragon, it's not a joke .”

Roland thought for a while: "Well... Mirror Demon's copying has a process. He has to use the mirror surface to clearly and completely illuminate the object, then copy it to a flat shape by mirroring, and finally wear the lens surface to complete it. The size of this entrance and exit is the same as that of the mirror, even if the queen’s figure is reflected in the mirror, it will not help if he cannot pass through the exit with that body, if the queen keeps the dragon’s In terms of form, it should be very difficult for him to succeed."

When he was pulled into the space inside the mirror, the entrance and exit were indeed the same size as the mirror. After I smashed the mirror into pieces, that guy could no longer escape through the mirror.

In the end, Roland came to a conclusion: "Although there are some hidden dangers, I personally think that this risk is still worth taking. Only with the help of the Dragon Queen's power can we seize this opportunity, and that demon has been completely copied to Bullock's ability." Even if his identity is exposed and he is under siege, he may still be able to break out of the siege. We cannot let him escape with such a dangerous character. In principle, we need a support force equal to or even stronger than Bullock."

"Okay, then don't worry, there is no mirror in this world that can let a dragon pass through." Arsena folded her hands and nodded, "It's safe!"

...Hey, it's okay if you don't say it, but I feel a little uneasy when I say it like this.

Come and serve me (1)

"So, you want me to help again?" The queen sitting on the cushioned chair rested her chin on her hand, staring lazily at me through the black cloth covering her eyes.

This is her room.
