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

So after his talent was damaged, the strong bond that this talent brought became less strong.

Once he judges that the benefits brought by the former are lower, he will probably re-bet.To put it more bluntly, although he is no longer young, it is not difficult for Straw, who has powerful magic power and is well maintained, to have a few more children.

So this is a test for him.

It's not just the fight for an heir apparent that will determine whether Straw gives up on him.

But even though he thought of this level, Hyde didn't intend to act exactly as he wanted.

After Nod, he has come to understand more and more that it is impossible for him to stand calmly outside the chessboard and hold his pieces forever.After all, he is not a person like Straw, who cannot turn a blind eye to those precious things, let alone regard them as his pawns.

What's more, as the chessboard expands rapidly and almost out of control, even that man will be sucked into the torrent sooner or later.

So even in rituals and competitions, he chose to participate more than plan, taking more risks than comfort.

Is this the right thing to do?

Hyde asked himself this way, although he had already made a choice, he was still not sure.

He raised his head and met a pair of green eyes among the crowd in the auditorium,

In those eyes that used to be full of sarcasm and malice, like demons playing with people's hearts, the emotion contained now is recognition and pride.

For some reason, his heart suddenly calmed down, as perfect as he tried to pretend before.

"Ah - at least she approves of me, that's enough."

Judging from his current performance and preparation, there is probably no suspense anymore.

In addition to Straw's prediction that several branch families would succumb to the huge economic pressure brought about by market changes, Hyde also found another unexpected help.

Through the news he received from Ella, Hyde became quite interested in Elaine's real thoughts.

Unlike Jerome, who showed complete hostility, he believed that there was no absolute conflict of interest between himself and this succubus cousin, or—at least—there was a possibility of cooperation.

If she just needs resources and allies, he feels that he can fully satisfy the other party's appetite.

Unexpectedly, he persuaded Elaine almost without much effort, and the other party agreed to his conditions immediately when more than half of the prepared chips were left.Strangely enough, this mixed-race succubus girl who was even a bit too active in the past looked a little sleepy.

She just added a few strange conditions at the end, such as "I want to see Ella Williams again" and "have an unreserved conversation".

"Is that guy naturally attracted to women?"

Hyde is not without malicious speculation.

He signed a magic contract with Elaine, and after receiving the help of this force, the selection for the second round of ceremony can be said to be a certainty.He didn't need to use that hole card to win.

Hyde had noticed Ayla hadn't been in the hall a few minutes earlier, and he was relieved by that.

He ended his brief speech.

The faint dizziness coming from his head made Hyde feel a little strange.

Indeed, it was a bit difficult to catalyze the emotions of dozens of wizards through star power and his ability.But his physical condition has recovered a lot, how could he feel in a trance after using such a little mental and magic power?

Hyde nodded to the shadow from a distance, as long as he persisted for a while, and took a rest after getting the exact approval rate.

"According to the selection results of the council, the final selected ■■■? ⊙§◆〓?!━━━"

But why... the surrounding voices became a little blurred, what strange words were they talking about?

The young man couldn't help shaking his head, but this movement brought on more severe dizziness. He felt that the ground under his feet was softening, and his consciousness was gradually withdrawing and becoming farther away.

"What's wrong with me?"

At the end of his consciousness, he noticed that the serious pride of the puppet lady turned into extreme astonishment and panic at some point.

-

Everything went very smoothly, and all of Hyde's secret actions were seen by the shadow, which was absolute trust.

Everything is going as he arranged, and there is no chance of any surprises. The final selection has been announced, and his approval rate is only slightly lower than Jerome, ranking second.

The latter looked stunned, as if he hadn't imagined such a result at all, and this stupid expression was the source of Shadow's happiness.

Although it was just some boring rituals and procedures afterwards, Miss Doll still planned to see the end. She would never do such boring things before.

Suddenly, her glass pupils shrank suddenly, because a black figure on the high platform was falling softly to the ground.

Like a dark angel falling from the sky.

Chapter 98 Turbulent Times

Hyde tilted his body, staggered a step, and then fell from the high platform with his head and feet on his head.

The accident happened so suddenly that few people could realize what happened.

Landing in such a dangerous posture, even a platform with a height of only three meters may break his cervical spine.

But after all, there are many powerful wizards present, and any one of them can make him avoid this injury.

Several different magical waves came from all directions, and Straw grabbed the silver-white staff head tightly, causing a whirlwind to rise from the ground out of thin air.Its power is strong but not violent, and it can completely lift a heavy object of about [-] catties to the ground smoothly.

And two black and white figures shot directly from the crowd. They subconsciously regarded each other as enemies to attack, so they attacked each other dozens of times in a short period of time!

Ling was holding a wooden spike that could not be called a dagger at all. It looked like a half armrest that had just been ripped off from a chair.

She staggered back three steps before steadying herself, and snorted slightly.

The opposite shadow was Elaine's personal maid, Lydia. Her wrist almost doubled in width, and her slender, white fingers were replaced by furry black animal claws.

She only took a step back and stabilized her body, but the wooden thorns cut several half-inch deep wounds on her arm.The maid lowered her head and licked the wound, and the area touched by the saliva was immediately stopped from bleeding. Although this self-healing speed is far from comparable to that of dirty blood species, it is far faster than that of humans.

"It turned out to be a werewolf. The water of your branch family is very deep."

Lydia's face changed, but she didn't answer.

After they realized that the reason for the shot was just a misunderstanding, they each kept a distance and continued to act.

Another figure stepped out of the black smoke, caught the blond boy in the air, and then staggered and landed on the ground.

The figure of the shadow swayed for a while and finally sat down on the ground. Her magic power was in an extremely poor state, and she almost failed even if she wanted to use a flash in a hurry.Forcibly completing this magic overloaded the alchemy circle in her chest, and there was even a crisp cracking sound from the joints of the puppet body, and black smoke mixed with strong magic power escaped.

The use of magic this time almost made her attempts to restore magic power in the past few days completely useless, and even deteriorated to a state worse than before.

But she didn't care about it, and raised her right hand instead, condensing an incandescent light ball in her palm.

There is a powerful blessing and purification power condensed there. God knows what kind of random method the shadow, whose abilities are mainly curses and darkness, used to create such a ball of light.

The power of the light ball is enough to instantly purify most curses and filthy forces, and its powerful healing ability that is instantly activated can also deal with hidden injuries and hidden dangers that may exist in the body.

Ling and Lydia are separated on both sides of the shadow. With their reactions and reaching out, they can block attacks that may appear from any angle within this range.

It was only then that the senior wizards in the Sanming Council reacted and cast three magic spells: "Torrent of Life", "Steel Blessing" and "Blessing" on Hyde.This was followed by countless layers of dazzling magic shields. In this state, it would be difficult for even one to take any further damage to him.

"Seal the leyline nodes of the manor and open the barrier. Anyone who dares to use space magic to leave the White Rose Manor will be regarded as a declaration of war against the Belusa family!"

Straw's voice echoed and overlapped in the space inside the auditorium, overwhelming the commotion that was about to erupt, and the venue fell into a dead silence again.

The door of the auditorium slammed shut, and mottled colored light curtains appeared around the walls.

"The Mephisto family and the Wizards Alliance will fully support the alliance's decision in this matter. Ladies and gentlemen, as long as you dare to leave before Mr. Straw gives permission, your names will be recorded in the alliance's On the execution list.”

Lucien's voice came from the audience, although it was just a threat shouted without any magic, just relying on his excellent lung capacity.But it still made nearly half of the people in the venue change their expressions instantly.

This means that anyone who dares to escape from White Rose Manor at such a time will be doomed. Even if they escape the pursuit of the master's wizard hunters and executioners by chance, it will be difficult for them to gain a foothold in the mysterious world!

The shadow's fingers were trembling slightly. As an alchemy life hosted by a magical soul, the coordination and stability of the body was far greater than that of an ordinary human body.In addition to being the body to rely on, most of them are used by alchemists as their assistants to complete some precise details.

But such a pair of originally very stable hands were trembling, and she didn't even dare to touch the opponent's body with the incandescent ball of light that was constantly expanding and contracting, full of blessing and purification power.

Ling, who had a keen intuition, immediately noticed the abnormality, and her pupils instantly turned dark yellow like a bird of prey,

Straw seemed to have discovered something, pushed away the wizard in front of him and strode over.A few seconds later, his face turned ashen.

The terrifying killing intent spread around this man, and the temperature in the room seemed to suddenly drop a few degrees. People with weak will even felt that they were frozen from head to toe and could not even move a finger.

There were even a few extremely weak people who fell from their seats to the ground. They forgot to breathe and live because they were too frightened. If they were not awakened in time, they might really die.

No one has ever seen this man standing outside the chessboard like a poisonous snake so furious,

The ball of light slowly roasted the black silk lace gloves into ashes, and the slender and delicate right hand, which was full of cold and inhuman qualities, suddenly closed, causing the ball of light to shatter and annihilate.

Miss Doll puffed out a wisp of water mist mixed with black particles, which was part of the alchemy circle and the source of her body.

She let out a long sigh, picked up the pale boy and walked slowly into the door on the side of the auditorium.

Her actions attracted everyone's attention, and these few dozen steps seemed as long as a century.But the puppet was unaware of these gazes, and just continued walking surrounded by several other vague figures.

Among the people present, only the shadow could clearly feel that Hyde's weight had almost lost half.

-

Several teleportation points of the Belusay family were set up in the remote turret of the White Rose Manor, the train station in the small town on the outskirts of the manor, and in several relatively hidden and remote streets.

At this time, a large number of wizards are flocking to these areas. They have been crowded in this area just like everyone else in the past half month.During this period, there were even a lot of familiar wild wizards, drinking whiskey together in the bar and talking about the close combat and unprecedented public form of the ceremony.

But this evening they walked towards this area in unison and left quickly.

A piercing scream came from near the transmission point of the train station, followed by a series of curses and pleas, and then a mass of intensive screams and a large amount of blood spreading from the door to the street.

A wizard turned his head and walked into a remote narrow alley with a sneer on his face.He has a fairly good status in the manor, so he also has the right to know the secret teleportation point not far ahead that only a few people know.

Unlike the guise wizards who were being killed, he wasn't a planned victim.As long as he can leave here now, the threat of the main family and the alliance will not be taken seriously by him at all.

He was about to reach that inconspicuous shop soon, but at this moment, something unexpected happened to him.

An unrecognizable twisted figure flew out of the shop, hitting a large depression on the brick wall.The wizard could barely recognize it through his clothes, that should be a guy with a slightly higher status than himself, but now he died here without even making a sound.

The narrow door of the shop was propped open by some kind of giant, and the whole thing collapsed.A wide and chilling figure completely blocked the narrow alley, grinning at him with fists stained with blood and brains, showing two rows of white teeth.

"You're doing it against the rules—"

Before the half-sentence of the wizard's condemnation was finished, the head and neck turned around several times in a strange direction.

"Rules? I am the rule now, and everyone within 20 meters of here will die!"

Adolf's big feet crushed the wizard's body a few times, trampling him half a foot deep into the hard stone slab.
