"Maybe we were too careless at that time, and the monster saw the opportunity to control Sandra. As long as it succeeded, we would die without knowing why. Mr. Evans, you were trying to contact the outside world. Once you realized that you couldn't communicate with Mr. Gaston, you would know that the monster was not completely dead. " "Also, according to Bill's description, this kind of monster is related to greed, hatred, jealousy, and other emotions. They often can't control their rationality, and they won't weigh the success rate of taking risks to attack or hiding and waiting for an opportunity."
Although he still could not cast spells or run, he could still walk steadily with the help of Charlotte's power. "If it's just one thing, Charlotte, your explanation is totally reasonable. But don't you think there's still a lot of questions?" Lucien asked. "Don't you think there's still a lot of questions?" Lucien was a bit surprised by Charlotte's answer. Lucien nodded.
The two girls who were walking in front of Lucien heard what he said. Sandra looked around vigilantly, and she kept thinking about what happened just now. Susan said with a trembling voice, "Mr. Evans, don't … don't scare me. Is the monster still alive? You've already done so much! "
Obviously, the slightest movement at this time would make the nightmarish Susan faint from fright.
"Indeed, the monster's behavior is contradictory, and we can't understand it." Xia Lot agreed with Lucien's question.
Hearing his words, Susan's knees went soft, and she almost couldn't support her body. It took her a lot of effort to stabilize herself.
Xia Lot paused for a second and then continued, "But from the many travel books and notes, we can see that the demons in the abyss and some nightmares are chaotic. If they don't contradict themselves, they will be very strange."
"Oh, Mr. Xia Lot, you … you scared me to death," Susan complained. Susan couldn't help but complain. Charlotte actually stopped halfway through her sentence, making her think that the monster would appear again. She almost scared herself to death.
Lucien was not angry because of Xia Lot's refutation. He nodded slightly and said, "There are many times more kinds of demons in the abyss than in hell, especially in the Skeleton Land. There are many new kinds of demons being created every day. It's normal that we don't know them."
Susan let out a long sigh of relief. Even Mr. Evans had given up his suspicion. The monster was really dead!
However, Lucien suddenly changed the topic, "But no matter how chaotic the demon is, it won't let go of the chance to kill us. According to the power it showed in the Bound Room, when it attacked the apprentice hall for the first time, it was more than enough to kill me directly. Malicious Transfiguration and Shadow Well, I didn't have the corresponding magic to defend against them. However, they used the fourth-circle spell 'Evil Gaze' and the fifth-circle spell 'Sudden Cardiac Arrest', which directly attacked the soul and the mind. Under the protection of the Death Ward, the latter could not kill me directly. "
After saying that, Lucien started to reflect on himself. Right now, he was only good at Element and Astrology, and he did not know enough about the other schools of magic. When facing the attacks of the soul, the mind, the mind, and the curses, he did not have enough magic to defend himself. When he went back, he had to choose another two schools of magic to study. At the same time, he also needed to learn the basic spells of the other schools of magic, in case he was killed by a weak enemy.
"Maybe when it attacked through the mirror, it couldn't use Malice Shapeshifting, so it could only attack the mind and soul. For example, it tried to control me later." Sandra had her own understanding of the situation, and it was very realistic. When it used other supernatural powers, the monster was not in the mirror.
Lucien smiled, "It seems that the discussion is helpful. Thank you for answering my questions. However, I still have two questions. Why is the restraint room like that?" Mr. Bertren did not use the Binding Room to perform the ridiculous summoning ritual, and Bill was not qualified to use the Binding Room that belonged to Mr. Bertren. "
"Also, why did we happen to see the parchment of the special summoning ritual? Since Bill controlled everything in the castle, and he had the strange power from the monster, why did he burn the book? Well, let's assume that he wanted to hide it from the Congress and continue to use his identity as an apprentice. But do you think that the monster only burned most of the books? Did he not notice that some of the books were still under the desk? "
Xia Lot tried to explain, "First, maybe Bill wanted to pretend that it was Mr. Bertren who did it, so he arranged the Binding Room like that. Later, when he failed to attack us, he used the Binding Room to delay us. Second, I don't think Bill wanted to burn the parchment, but during the fierce battle, there were flames everywhere, and the parchment was accidentally set on fire. "
"As for why we happened to see it, we can only say that it was a coincidence." Sandra led Susan into the corridor with the energy room.
Lucien took out his pocket watch and looked at it, "Then I have no more questions. It's 5: 25 now. The senior-rank sorcerer will be here in about 40 minutes. Let's wait patiently."
"Okay, Mr. Evans," Xia Lot, Sandra and Susan answered at the same time.
Although Lucien's questions were all answered, Sandra and Susan were still very nervous, and Xia Lot was very vigilant. Therefore, they did not lift the defense. The colorful energy ball was still hovering above their heads, and the magic wall was still protecting them.
After walking for a while in this corridor, a house with its door open appeared on the side. Susan subconsciously looked over, and then softly exclaimed in surprise.
Lucien and the others followed her eyes, but the room was empty. Sandra asked curiously, "Susan, what's this room? What's wrong? "
Susan frowned, "This is Mr. Bertren's vault. There's gold, silver, and precious magic materials inside. But now, there's nothing left …"
"Why would the monster like these things?" The palpitation in their hearts struck them again. It was too strange that these things disappeared!
Sandra bared her teeth and said, "Maybe the summoned monster needs gold, gems, and magic materials to sustain itself." Although she said that, she looked around more and more vigilantly. She could not imagine that the monster could still come back to life after destroying all the mediums.
"Does it need to pay something like summoning a dragon?" Xia Lot felt a bit ridiculous, "Let's stop here and set up the magic circle. There are still a lot of mysteries. But I think it has nothing to do with the monster. It's impossible for it to come back to life. "
Susan started to work with Charlie and Sandra to set up the defense magic circle. Leaning against the wall, Lucien felt a sharp pain in his head and soul when he tried to use his spiritual power. Therefore, he could only activate the magic items.
Soon, the magic circle was set up. Xia Lot, Sandra, and Susan all let out a sigh of relief. No matter who the enemy was, it would take them at least ten minutes to break the magic circle, and there were two fourth-circle sorcerers in there. Therefore, it was more than enough for them to hold on until the senior-rank sorcerers arrived.
After the magic circle was set up, Xia Lot and Sandra stood on both sides of the gate. Susan stood in the corner, and Lucien leaned against the wall. On the opposite side of the gate, there was a smooth stone wall. On the stone wall, they could vaguely see their figures, but they could still see Sandra's broken collar, Xia Lot's broken vest, and Lucien's monocle clearly.
Lucien thought about the whole thing in his mind and said seriously, "Maybe the monster is dead, but it seems that someone has been manipulating everything since the beginning."
When Lucien said that, the shadow wearing the monocle suddenly grinned. It was not creepy anymore, but proud!
When did it come in?! Lucien ignored his headache and activated Sun's Corona subconsciously. A beam of holy light blasted toward the shadow.
"Mr. Evans, what's wrong?" Xia Lot and Sandra turned around alertly, but there was only the light from the magic circle activated by Lucien's Holy Light Strike.
Lucien checked himself carefully and found that he was not attacked, nor was his soul or spirit attacked.
"Maybe I was too nervous, and my soul was messed up after using the Elemental Swirl, so I was hallucinating?" Lucien felt that he was overreacting, but he still described what he just saw.
"If it was the monster, why didn't it take the chance to attack you, Mr. Evans? And if it didn't attack you, why would it expose itself? "Sandra and Xia Lot both thought that Lucien was hallucinating.
Lucien pushed his monocle up a bit, "I don't know whether it was my own hallucination or not. Anyway, we need to stay alert. In a few minutes, the senior-rank sorcerers will be here."
… …
In the apprentice hall, the black traces of corrosion in the secret room suddenly wriggled. Then, it suddenly rose and condensed into a giant creature in the hall. It had a strong body, a thick and long neck, and a head like a lizard. There was a pair of transparent and beautiful wings on its back that looked like the wings of a bat. When it gently flapped, there would be a strong wind blowing. Its body was also covered with a layer of transparent scales. Under the light of the setting sun, it emitted a cold and dreamy radiance. At the same time, it emitted a terrifying aura that stood at the top of the food chain.
It was a giant dragon!
In a corner of the apprentice hall, ripples suddenly appeared, and a figure slowly appeared.
It was a handsome middle-aged man wearing a flame-like magic robe. He was holding a notebook and a quill in his hand.
As soon as the dragon saw him, it pounced on the middle-aged sorcerer. Its two front claws were placed in front of him, and its red tongue reached out and licked the sorcerer's body.
The force field around the middle-aged sorcerer was shaking under the dragon's lick. While writing something in the notebook, the middle-aged sorcerer smiled and nodded, "Nice acting!"
"Good job!" The dragon snorted, looking very happy and proud. It continued to lick the middle-aged sorcerer with its tongue.
The middle-aged sorcerer stopped writing and murmured, "Cautious, agile, and decisive. It's better than most sorcerers in the face of danger. However, it has a lot of problems when it comes to the combination of spells and how to use them. You need to learn more about it. Your basic spells are too weak. You need to make up for it …"
Putting away the notebook, the middle-aged sorcerer looked at the dragon seriously, "Alferris, give me the treasures. They belong to the Congress."
The dragon pressed its front claws on the middle-aged sorcerer's body and licked even harder. It refused to answer the question about the treasures.
Seeing that the force field around him was about to break, the middle-aged sorcerer shook his head helplessly, "Alright, you can take some of them as your reward for killing that monster and acting as it."
"Okay!" The dragon hummed happily. Then, it licked the force field wall again to show its enthusiasm. With a smack, the force field wall was smashed. (To be continued.) If you like this work, you are welcome to come to qidian.com to vote for me. Your support is my biggest motivation.)
