It is impossible for the girl to find the evil god in the textbook

This environment with limited spiritual vision and extremely low visibility created good conditions for Elaine.But on the other hand, the signs of her demonization became more and more obvious. In addition to the eyes and the gradually curved sharp horns of the head, the tail came out restlessly.At the same time, she also felt itchy on her waist. According to the image reference of the high-level succubus, maybe a pair of disproportionately short wings would grow there soon.

If it were in the past, Elaine might still be happy about this change.But at this moment, she thought of the words Ella Williams left before she left:

【Have you ever had the feeling that your body seems to have its own consciousness, instinct gradually overwhelms rationality... as if another person is gradually waking up from your body? 】

[Think about what this power means, the price of having it is far heavier than you imagine. 】

A corrosive acid arrow hit the broken wall where she was, and there was a scalp-numbing creaking sound.The splashed acid splashed towards Elaine's position, but her figure flickered and became transparent, and then appeared at a position one body away from the original place.

This is the ability of "false moonlight", using the illusion and defense effects caused by visual errors.

The succubus girl glanced at the blackened and blistered ground, then calmed down and stopped thinking about the words that would shake her state of mind.

Whether it was the freedom outside the shackles or the devil outside the wall, at least this power was indispensable to her now.

She didn't hesitate any longer, and took a long black-handled whip from her waist, and slammed it in the direction of the acid arrow.And the long whip twisted by the metal wire actually forked itself in the air, tightening the exposed wizard, and then yanked it inward, splitting it into a large piece of starlight!

"there!"

The voice came from a distance, and the position here had been exposed and could not stay any longer. Elaine immediately asked a member to stay in the rear, and then led the others into the narrow alley.

At this time, the red light curtain has completely enveloped the city, and when looking at the sky, it seems that the whole world is dyed blood.From time to time, there would be a huge black shadow cruising behind the red light curtain, making it impossible to tell if it was a dark cloud or something else.

There are less than 10 minutes left until the end of the wrapping.

Chapter 72 Queen

Jerome pressed one hand against the broken wall, panting heavily.Although their bodies in this world are made of illusions and not real flesh, they will also feel tired.This kind of fatigue is manifested in the undisguised mental body, and it cannot even be concealed.

In the few conflicts just now, there were only eight people left under his command, and even a few cronies brought in from the outside world couldn't make it to the end.

The succubus took the advantages of street fighting and the environment to the limit, divided the battlefield with bait and carried out sneak attacks in a small area, creating a situation of many versus few, constantly consuming Jerome's power.By the time he reacted, nearly one-third of the team's strength had been lost.

But even so, the advantage of numbers still exists.And with the delay of the battle, he has gradually become familiar with the surrounding environment, so after a few counterattacks, he quickly pushed the situation to balance.

At this time, the light curtain had already converged to the surrounding dilapidated streets, with a radius of less than [-] meters, and there was no longer any condition for a concealed surprise attack.

Elaine stood at the other end of the street, with only six of her men left.With seven versus nine, the fighting power is almost even.

In the center of both sides is a circular flower bed, where the plants that should have been there have long been buried by wind and sand erosion, replaced by a gray-yellow sand dune, a round table and ten simple stone chairs that suddenly appeared here.

Ten cage-shaped hexagonal helmets are placed in a circle on the table. This is the "nightmare cage" worn by the ceremony participants when entering this world.

This is what qualifies as a winner, without a doubt.The light curtain will eventually shrink until only this small flower bed and seat are left. As long as you can wear the Nightmare Cage, you will win and gain the spiritual power gathered by the ritual.

However, the two forces that had reached a delicate balance at this time were unable to take a step forward, and instead stared at one of the seats.

Because a man was already sitting there.

Hyde Belusay, who had already taken off his mask, smiled and played with the iron cage in his hand.

"For a winner's crown, this thing is a bit too ugly, isn't it? What do you think?"

The ashen-faced Jerome Belusay stared at him, and after a long while, he made a difficult sound through his teeth.

"how did you do it?"

-

"How did he do that?"

Ling stared dumbfounded at the diamond-shaped light and shadow suspended in front of his eyes, and even forgot to throw a peeled grape into his mouth for a while.

Ella's figure had appeared behind her at some point. The girl's face looked a little tired but she looked very happy.She lowered her head and snatched the grapes from Ling's hand, and then explained:

"Hyde divided his spiritual power at the edge of the forest. The essence of them in that world is part of the spirit separated and extracted by the "Nightmare Cage". Therefore, even if it is quite difficult to divide again, it is not impossible. of. "

"He split his mental body at the edge of the forest, spent most of his power to create a clone, attracted the attention of everyone present and suspended his death. The real him only retained enough power to maintain his existence, taking advantage of the chaos to take a step ahead Fleeing into the ruins of the city."

"In this way, he has entered the blind spot of everyone's sight. After all, his exit has been observed by Jerome's people, and that part of his spirit has indeed been decomposed into starlight. What about the dead who have already left?"

Ling snorted.

"He was willing to do so. Even the star ring was used on the clone as a bait. If you weren't there, that alchemy item would probably have been destroyed just like that."

Saying so, she suddenly thought of something wrong.Even the magic power of alchemy props may be permanently damaged in that space, so how can the damage caused by Hyde's split mental body be small?

Although he retains a part of the mental power sufficient to maintain his existence, what is the difference between this and losing?

Ella saw her doubts and explained with a smile:

"This is a big gamble. After all, those mental fragments originally belong to him. As long as he is qualified to win, he may not be unable to seize the opportunity and get more shares when absorbing these starlights."

Ling nodded. Ella's words made sense. Wizards like Hyde had a very high degree of control over their own spiritual power.Even if there is only a little connection, as long as there is a chance to retrieve it, it will not be difficult for him to return to his original state or break through his original limits.

"But there is still a problem. Since he only retains enough power to maintain his own existence, isn't it too early to appear now? Even if Hyde has already sat on the stone chair, what can stop Elaine and Jay?" Roma's people?"

Jerome was the first to form a force and obtained the greatest help in this illusory world.Elaine, on the other hand, carried a number of powerful alchemy props, which came from the financial resources and accumulation of her father's generation. "False Moonlight" is very suitable for this peculiar environment. It may not be impossible for her to choose this alchemy item because she has obtained more information about the ceremony beforehand.

But what about Hyde? Is there any chess piece left in Hyde's hand that can be used?What kind of chess pieces will he use to win?

At this moment, Ella kept a secret, and had no intention of continuing to explain.

"This is also an interesting thing, just keep reading."

-

"Sacrificing most of the spiritual power, and then using the final ceremony to complete it, pretending to die and hiding in the dark to provoke us to go to war... This is really a good plan. The three people I sent to find Elaine for peace talks were also sent by you Killed it?"

Facing Jerome's exclamation, Hyde just smiled and said nothing.

"If you look at it that way, I underestimate you."

Elaine also sighed. What the young executive said was indeed true. Hyde Beluse was indeed their formidable enemy.Even though his bloodline was damaged, he was still the genius wizard who was not seen in a century.

"But what are you going to do now? Even if everything has come to this point according to your idea, you still appeared a little too early. Although we have suffered heavy losses, with the power you have left now, we can always Kill you here. Or are there fewer people left on both sides of your original plan?"

All the sorcerers around took a step forward. They only needed to work together to kill this weak young man on the winner's throne. At that time, all calculations would be meaningless, even if they could briefly touch this young man. There was nothing left of him to hold the crown.

"I never thought about it that way. You are not stupid. There are a total of ten seats here that can be divided up. Of course, you can't fight until you die together."

"Elaine Belusay, you are right. Jerome has the greatest power in this world, and you are the alchemy tool with the right location and suitable for this environment. If I just rely on some quick wits, I will survive to the end The stage is meaningless, right?"

"But in chess, the king is never the strongest piece, the queen is—come out, my queen, you are my last card."

At this time, the originally peaceful space around Hyde was distorted.A figure with black hair and black dress was outlined, and the dark eye shadow set off a pair of seductive and dangerous green eyes like poisonous snake fruit.

She was the shadow who had disappeared before the ceremony. There was only one reason why she did not appear in the outside square as an audience, and that was that she herself was also a performer on the stage.

The black smoke swept across, and the huge magic power made all the wizards present couldn't help being shocked.Those with weaker strength even seeped black grains from their bodies, and were severely injured on the spot.

Miss Doll stood proudly behind the stone chair where Hyde was sitting, with a smile full of malice and ridicule raised at the corners of her mouth.

Hyde helplessly spread his hands,

"It's not easy to find her in this world now. If we can appear closer, I won't have to do such troublesome things."

The person who attacked and killed the three Lynns and Jerome's guards in the wind and sand before was the shadow. Under the command of Hyde, she successfully provoked the flames of war, but she kept the greatest combat power in the dark.

"You violated the rules, she is not from the Belusay family at all! No, no, why can she use the "Nightmare Cage"? ! "

The sudden change made one of the wizards' complexion change drastically, and he immediately questioned.Although the magic power displayed by the shadow was not complete, it was obviously much stronger than the tired ones present. The wizard was not reconciled to the immediate reversal of the good situation, and accused Hyde of cheating.

"Who said I was a ritual participant?"

Faced with doubts, Shadow responded with a smile on his face.

"In the final analysis, they are just magical souls born from alchemy tools, and there is no essential difference between them and the ones you brought."

"Your rules only require that he cannot use the alchemy items from the Beluse family treasure house or the Kraft alchemy room. Now I belong to neither Beluse nor Craft. Even if I help him, it is allowed by your rules. within the scope.”

When she said this, her voice had become cold.

"Or are you going to take the lead in defying the rules you made?"

-

"So this is your arrangement. Indeed, her nature is more like an artifact that can act autonomously than a human being, but isn't this approach too shameless?"

Christopher Engel watched the changes on the long table and couldn't help laughing.He didn't care about the other people in the basement who were looking livid at the moment.

"Where, it's just the most basic means of protection, and it can't afford this level of praise."

Straw Belousse's expression remained unchanged, and he still had that annoying and elegant smile.

He no longer watched the final result of the first trial, but just sat on the chief with a cane and closed his eyes to rest.

Chapter 73 Upgrade

Hyde heard the shadow's voice coming from his consciousness secretly.

"My strength is not complete, and I can't deal with everyone present. It is enough to guarantee the places you need this time."

He nodded secretly, Hyde could still see this kind of thing.

These wizards are currently exhausted, and the Belusay family is notoriously bad at fighting head-on.If the power of the shadow is the same as that of the outside world, then she doesn't have to show up in person at such a time, and just instantly kill everyone present.

After all, she can't bring the puppet body into the illusory world, and the way of existence is mostly the same as other alchemy props, but it is only a part of the power projection that contains magical characteristics.

Hyde couldn't help but feel a little pity. If the shadow power is intact, now is a good opportunity to wipe out all the other ceremony participants.But this kind of thing cannot be forced after all, and the current situation can be said to be quite good.

"What does it mean to guarantee a place for me alone? Then what are you going to do?"

He asked subconsciously, after all, the shadow couldn't use the nightmare cage, what other special method should she use to enter this world.But now the light curtain has converged to the limit, she may not be able to use the same method to return.

"I don't have an entity right now, I'm just a superficial image created by using the illusory world. After that, I need to temporarily parasitize in your consciousness, just like when I stayed on Ayla in the past."

"Okay, no problem."

Hyde's crisp answer stunned Shadow.Agreeing to this kind of parasitism in consciousness is equivalent to giving up control of the body without defense, and can take it as his own if he wants to.Even when she was at the border of the dream, she still vaguely had this kind of thought.

Isn't this person afraid at all?

As if understanding her expression, Hyde smiled subconsciously,

"What can I guard against you?"

-

The current situation is very clear.
