Chapter 214 Unlucky Macao
Macao felt that he had been really unlucky recently.
The experiment is going well and the results are almost out.
The "celestial conjunction" that is rarely seen in a century suddenly occurred.
The strong vibration caused by the intersection of the celestial bodies caused him to accidentally break an important intermediate compound.
The experiment was in vain and decades of hard work went to waste.
The talented apprentice who had been carefully trained for several years died in the mouth of a water ghost because he was curious about the duel with the witcher.
then.
There was no time to feel sad about the experiment that had to be started all over again and the apprentice who died.
Because of the recent death of the king, the academy assigned tasks to all wizards.
But the task assigned to him was not bad, just chasing a few apprentices.
What's more, I can consult Professor Thomas Moreau, who is knowledgeable and has made outstanding achievements in the field of gene mutation, so it is also beneficial.
But who could have thought that those two apprentices could be so capable?
Who would have thought...
Among the tasks arranged, this task which has almost nothing to do with the witchers is actually related to the two witchers?
God!
When Thomas Moreau heard that his apprentice had followed the two witchers, he ran like a mad dog and refused to let them stop to rest!
For the sake of experiment, Macao hasn't ridden a horse for more than ten years and has almost forgotten how to ride a horse.
He traveled day and night and stayed on horseback for more than ten days.
My waist was almost broken from riding, and my hips were covered with blisters and bruises from being rubbed by the saddle. I finally caught up by taking a shortcut.
That's fine, just a little tiring.
Who the hell could have thought that this madman Thomas Moreau's target was not the apprentices, but the two witchers?
Damn it!
I'm a college wizard, not a combat wizard!
I didn't expect to risk my life for the school's mission!
What do you think?
Those monsters of the Demon Hunters are all professional warriors, monsters created by Alzu specifically for killing!
How can we, with just two old arms and legs, win?
Macao hid behind a tree and watched Thomas Moreau summon four giant centipedes, which rushed towards the witcher from underground.
Psychological activities are complex.
He hesitated for a moment.
He looked at Thomas Moreau's face, which was flushed with sickness, and whispered:
"Professor Thomas Moreau, the dean just asked us to take these two apprentices back."
"I'm afraid it's... inappropriate for you to provoke a dispute with the Wolf School without authorization?"
Thomas Moreau turned his head sharply and stared at Macao fiercely.
The bloodshot eyes embedded in the lenses in the eye sockets looked like a terrifying hungry wolf.
Choose people to devour.
Makao was so scared that he took two steps back and almost fell down.
"This is my personal matter and has nothing to do with Ban Ade Academy. I will spare the lives of those two apprentices..."
"Do you have any other opinions?"
What could Macao say as he was being stared at fiercely by Thomas Moreau?
Given this madman’s current mental state, if he went against Thomas Moreau’s wishes, he might even dare to kill Dean Henry Gedimides!
"What a lunatic!" Makao, who knew the inside story, cursed in his heart, "It was you who killed my son, not me..."
"And those witchers from the Griffin School took your son away, why are you looking for the Wolf School?"
Yes.
He knew a little about Thomas Moreau's story, but he never expected that the wizard known for his rationality could be so crazy.
of course.
He only dared to curse these words in his heart.
In order to save his own life, he could only stare at the battlefield and pray that the four giant centipedes would be more powerful and not leave the witcher any chance to turn the tables.
"Don't worry, it's just a master demon hunter and an apprentice. Nothing will go wrong."
"These white widows have been specially trained by me. Their shells are extremely hard and cannot be harmed by the demon hunter's silver sword."
Thomas Moreau noticed the uneasiness of his companion.
Considering that the support of other wizards would be needed to eliminate the witcher, his expression softened and he said something comforting.
"That's not an ordinary apprentice. I heard that he personally killed two large monsters called Water Ghost Kings in the arena..."
"The apprentices watching the battle nicknamed him the Blue Death..."
Macao was afraid that Thomas Moreau would be careless, so he quickly reminded him.
“Hahaha~” Thomas Moreau laughed contemptuously, “Blue Death? It’s just a nickname given by children for fun.”
"And that Water Ghost King can't catch up to my masterpiece, the White Widow."
"I hope so." Makao laughed dryly and sighed.
Although the Wolf School has a good reputation, it is impossible for them to not fight back after being attacked.
For the sake of his own life, he could only believe that Thomas Moreau would be the winner.
Unfortunately……
God does not fulfill one's wishes.
It had only been a few seconds since Macao had reaffirmed his confidence in Thomas Moreau when he suddenly widened his eyes in shock and exclaimed:
"How can this be!"
……
Go back a few minutes.
The hard black shell is shiny and glossy, and it looks difficult to break through at first glance.
Moreover, among the attributes identified, except for agility and mysticism which were slightly lower, the other attributes of White Widow were far superior to Aylin.
His physique is even nearly three times as strong as his.
but……
After seeing that the monster's name matched the one in his mind, Ailin calmed down.
"Rumble~"
After the White Widow missed her attack, she quickly retreated into the ground at lightning speed.
"Black shell and white belly, has this kind of monster appeared around here?"
Vesemir frowned in confusion.
He held the sword tightly in one hand and maintained the Quen Seal - an active shield - with the other.
He scanned the ground carefully, not missing any slight movement.
"Alin, be careful... This monster looks a bit like a giant centipede, but I've never seen a giant centipede like this."
Ailin's mind was always connected to the wolf emblem, staring at the four yellow-brown light balls darting around underground:
"Master Vesemir, this may be a man-made monster..."
“What?” Vesemir was stunned.
A monster that even he had never seen before.
How did Ailin know that?
he wanted to ask.
However, we are at a critical moment in the battle now, and it is obviously not the time to ask the reason.
With trust in Arryn, Vesemir tilted his head:
"What are you going to do?"
Ailin did not reply immediately, but protected Bogdan, keeping his eyes on the ball of light underground while scanning his surroundings.
in the game.
When the White Widow emerges from the ground, she will become paralyzed if she encounters the magic trap sign of Aden.
So using the Sign of Y'den is a good way to deal with White Widow.
But there are still great risks.
Reality is not a game.
In the game, after using Yaden to freeze White Widow, you can attack her however you want.
But in reality, the monster's shell is so hard that you must attack the white area on its abdomen.
With half the attackable positions missing, this is difficult in itself.
The sharp front feet of the White Widow are still on the abdomen...
It's harder.
But these difficulties are actually not a big deal for Arryn and Vesemir.
As long as you try a little and get the hang of White Widow's attack rhythm and movements, there won't be any problem.
The key is.
These big centipedes are most likely controlled by humans.
Even Vesemir, who often walked this road, said that he had never seen the White Widow, so it was almost certain that she was summoned by someone else.
This also makes it almost impossible to exploit the White Widow's weakness of being stiffened by the Sign of Aden in the game.
What if the wizard in control has any way to break the stiffness?
At the critical moment, the sharp front paw would chop off either the hand or the foot.
He is still young and doesn't want to become disabled so soon.
"found it!"
Ailin's eyes suddenly lit up.
About fifty meters away.
Behind a few dense oak trees, colorful elements gathered there in large and abnormal numbers.
The real enemy who controls White Widow must be there!
then.
Ailin quickly turned his head and said:
"Master Vesemir, help me protect Bogdan."
The next second, the active shield disappeared.
Vesemir didn't ask any more questions.
They had been through a lot of things. At the critical moment, Ailin had never let him down.
He pulled Bogdan, who was still confused and had no idea what was happening, and put him under the protection of Quinn's shield.
"be careful!"
"Yeah!" Ailin nodded slightly, then pushed the ground hard with his feet.
Like a tiger or leopard discovering its prey, he rushed towards the oak forest with sword in hand.
Thomas Moreau opened his mouth in shock as he saw the young witcher rushing towards him.
"How can this be!"
"We were discovered?"
Macao also turned his head with a surprised look at Thomas Moreau.
Thomas Moreau's art of hiding in the wild.
This is a must-have spell for wizards when they travel.
It can use magic to change the direction of light propagation in almost any terrain, achieving a stealth effect while forming an invisible space to block the smell in the space from escaping.
And you can tell who invented this spell just by listening to the name.
With Thomas Moreau's strength, even if the most agile tigers, leopards, jackals or wolves passed by them, they would not be able to detect them.
How did the young witcher find out!
"Tap tap tap~"
The sound of rapid footsteps was heard.
With Ailin's speed, the distance of fifty meters was gone in a flash.
Thomas Moreau had no time to think about how he had exposed their position.
In a panic, he quickly controlled the four white widows to rush towards Ailin.
"Rumble~"
The vibration coming from the ground suddenly intensified.
Ailin seemed unaware and continued to rush towards the oak forest.
It was not until the yellow-brown ball of light rushed to his feet from the perspective of Wolf Emblem that he suddenly ducked and rolled.
"Bang~"
A huge noise broke out behind him, as if the dwarf's black gunpowder suddenly exploded.
Gravel and sand kept hitting him, breaking out the Quinn shield on his leather armor.
The pale golden light alternates between light and dark.
“Chi-chi-chi”
The sharp and strange roar was filled with panic and anger.
"How can it be!"
Seeing this scene, Thomas Moreau didn't care that his disguise had been exposed, and stood up suddenly and screamed loudly.
His proudest work, the four white widows.
After they emerged from the ground one after another, their bodies suddenly froze.
They turned into stone pillars that were impossible to move.
It could only wave its countless legs around in panic, but was unable to retract into the ground.
Beneath them, two circular magic circles were flashing with a mysterious purple magical glow.
Arden Magic Trap!
He rolled on the ground and released two seals in succession, freezing the four monsters.
Ailin glanced back to make sure the seal was working, then slammed his right foot into the ground and continued to rush towards the oak forest.
at this time.
The wizard who secretly controlled the White Widow has been exposed.
They were all dressed in black robes.
A wizard with an old face and wearing silver glasses embedded in his eye sockets, his appearance has an inexplicable sense of familiarity.
The other one looked like he was just middle-aged, but his hair was already gray.
"It's the Ben Ader wizard again!"
"Did they discover that it was me who did the conjunction of the celestial spheres?"
The cat's blue eyes, which were as straight as needles, stared coldly at the two wizards. Ailin felt somewhat doubtful.
but.
As the distance between them continued to increase, the determination in the young demon hunter's eyes became more and more intense.
never mind!
As long as we catch them, we will naturally know the purpose of these two wizards?
The sharp sword blade shines with a cold light.
Quickly approach the oak forest.
The distance between the young witcher and the wizard was only about ten meters.
At this time.
The two wizards seemed to react suddenly, chanting spells with trembling mouths and waving their hands in a hurry, leaving afterimages.
pity.
That's too late!
The magic power in the air had just begun to surge when the young demon hunter rushed in front of the two people.
this moment.
He was surprised to see the huge difference in the two wizards' reactions.
The one with glasses pounced on Aelin with his hands clenched into claws and his mouth opened wide.
His entire face seemed twisted with anger and hatred, as if it wanted to tear his flesh off piece by piece.
The other wizard also gave up casting spells.
But he kept backing away, his eyes wide open with fear and pleading for mercy.
strangeness……
Why are the two wizards so different?
Ailin was confused.
But at the same time, his hands did not stop moving.
He flipped his wrist, dodged the bespectacled wizard's attack by leaning sideways, and tapped him lightly on the back of the head with the hilt of his sword.
Then he clenched his free left hand into a knife and cut the other wizard's neck artery.
"Pfft~"
"Pfft~"
Both wizards fell unconscious.
"A bit weak..."
Ailin thought.
"Ha-"
"Ha-"
A shrill cry sounded behind him.
Ailin looked in the direction of the sound.
After the two wizards fainted, the four White Widows broke free from the control of the Aden Seal and burrowed underground.
But it was different from before when they all attacked Ailin together.
Among the four white widows, two of them headed towards Vesemir and the two wizard apprentices.
The remaining two.
One of them was targeting Ailin.
The other was Radek's horse.
"Master Vesemir, use the Sign of Arden!"
Ailin gave a loud reminder and then ignored it.
Vesemir is a master witcher, so even if he has to protect two wizard apprentices, they will not be in danger for a while.
"Click~"
"Click~"
In order to prevent the two wizards from waking up and causing trouble, Arlin dislocated their arms.
of course.
With the way Ailin had knocked them out, they would have been unconscious for at least half an hour.
After all, this is a professional skill from "Cat School Two-handed Sword LV5".
But it's never a bad thing to be a little more stable.
Lost the wizard's control.
The White Widow with her tough shell and sharp claws is certainly not easy to deal with.
However, with the Demon Hunting skill, all types of defense are equal to Ailin.
therefore.
It only took about ten minutes for Ailin to clear out all four white widows.
The only loss was one of Radek's horses.
"Qiang!"
Sheath the sword.
A satisfyingly familiar mechanical sound reached Aelin's ears.
"Ding!"
[Defeat the monster "White Widow"! ]
[Rewards settlement: …]
