MTL - Throne of Magical Arcana-v9 Chapter 25 Hole cards or hidden dangers?

The cold wind blows, the cold sweat on his forehead almost freezes into scum, and cold Downey trembles, but even so, he still does not wake up, still looks at his right hand with a look of joy and fear, recalling the previous picture.

Monotonous black and white and gray, as if it can affect the solidification and silence of the surroundings, completely restrain the breath of the evil spirit, and can directly penetrate the grasp of the evil spirit's defense spell. His right hand is so strange and so powerful!

And this is very similar to the black full body armor that he encountered in the nightmare, and it is similar to the black and white gray anomaly that was sealed in the center of the "Universe Star"!

Could it be that something went wrong in the nightmare and he was infected by the "monster" without notice?

The thought of a dream that can manipulate himself and others, looking at it is like looking at the purest and most essential death monster. Downey's fear and fear from the depths of his soul, so he shook his head suddenly, awake from his heart, his heart Shouted frantically, hurry up, find Carl, only he and the big man behind him can help me solve this problem! They should be very interested in this monster!

The inner shout drove Downey to take a step towards the gate of the real castle, at which time he saw a little powder shimmering on the carpet.

Evil dust?

Downey stopped abruptly. Is this what was left after the death of the evil spirit?

"Evil Spirit Dust" is a much rarer and more precious intermediate-grade material than "Wraith Dust". It is a harvest that Donny would never dream of!

But Downey stayed in place, without leaning over or casting spells. A clear and obvious voice sounded in his heart:

"The evil spirit just now should have the strength of the five ring mage. Maybe it is close to the high level. To kill me is like killing an ordinary person, but it is under the strange black and white gray and under my right hand. , But without resistance. I pierced like a bubble ... "

"... My right hand is so strong?"

"... I'm so powerful just by the monster's breath?"

Really feeling the power of his right hand, Downey hesitated. For a civilian like him who worked hard from ordinary people to magic apprentices to formal mage, this kind of strength was not dare to expect.

"With it, I can gain the power to restrain the undead below the high level, maybe even the high level can affect ..."

"Also, it seems to be able to eliminate below-level superior abilities like‘ eliminating ’blood. It may even be stronger ...”

"In this way, I can take risks in various places in the necropolis, and I can explore various tombs that are regarded as dangerous places, so as to harvest all kinds of materials, get astrological digital wealth, and greatly improve my strength ... ... "

"... strength is equal to status. Even in the face of the great aristocracy, I will be treated with respect ..."

"... This will make my father and mother no longer have to worry about the grocery store, and enjoy the convenience and enjoyment of various alchemy items leisurely ... This will allow Lili to go to school to study, instead of having to help with housework at home Waiting to marry, there is no life of your own ... "

Downey's facial muscles were twisted like never before, showing a frightening nagging.

"Anyway, nobody can see that we have a weird right hand! At least Carl and the big man behind him didn't notice it!"

Gradually. Downey put his right hand back into the pockets on both sides of his magic robe.

boom!

The strong wind blew and a window that had not been opened hit the window frame severely.

Donny woke up, felt the bitter cold, cleared his mind, and just now all the desires were suppressed by fear.

"... What happened to me just now ... Although the smell of the monster hidden in my right hand can make me strong, who knows if it will gradually infect me and turn me into a zombie without my own thoughts ..."

"... forces from uncontrolled sources of unknown origin must be studied carefully ... how many high-level magicians have died in rash attempts ..."

"As long as you live, you have a chance!"

Downey finally made up his mind. I plan to return to the town immediately to call Carl-Carl left him a personal communication number. At that time, the most serious thing would be the loss of his right hand, and maybe not so miserable, and there will be a little power that can be controlled without hidden dangers.

Outside the castle, the tall and upright figure chuckled: "Fortunately, this guy is quite good at restraining his desires, otherwise it is not just an infection of death. Maybe it will also provoke the 'greedy' devil. . "

Such things as ancient devil, as long as there is intelligent life, can never be completely eliminated, and will condense again at most ten or twenty years later. It's just not that powerful for a long time.

…………

Darkness envelopes the forest, and Downey travels alone through this quiet and dark place. The roar of beasts that sound from time to time is even more frightening, but for Downey, this is much safer than the castle. These beasts and ghosts add up Can't compare with the "paralysis breath" of the evil spirit.

He left a note to Baron Herdos, stating that he had solved the problem of the evil spirit, and then returned to the town without any delay.

Under the blessing of spells, two hours later, Downey saw the town he was familiar with. Except for the bright street lights near the platform of the magic steam train, the rest was dark and silent.

Downey chose the platform, walked to the "duty room", and knocked on the closed door.

"Who?" The staff member on the platform asked in fear, wouldn't it be a robber?

Many magic steam trains carrying goods will pass at night. In addition to long-distance trains, the platform must be dispatched at any time. However, in such a small town, it is difficult for the staff on duty to have the power of magic apprentices and face various dangers Can only rely on the "burst gun", and now the robbers have learned shrewd, know how to evade, and no longer wait for death as silly as before.

If they still have the power of a knight's attendant or a magic apprentice, it is even more dangerous. After all, the "burst gun" requires manual aiming and cannot provide the mental force lock function.

Downey took off his magician badge and shook it in front of the window. "I'm Downey. I need to borrow the landline phone. This is the right of the magician."

According to the joint regulations of the Magic Parliament and various countries, in emergencies, formal mages can use the badges to borrow communication facilities at platforms, police stations, city halls, town offices, and other places.

The staff inside breathed a sigh of relief, and after discerning the authenticity, opened the door: "Mr. Downey, please come in. The wired telephone is on the table."

Downey nodded slightly, no time to thank him, hurried to the table and dialed Carl's number.

Beep, beep, beep, after three beeps. Carl's lazy voice sounded: "Who? Call me early in the morning! Don't you know this is very inhumane and cruel?"

He seemed a bit upset after waking up.

Downey froze, and Karl's voice from the phone seemed less magnetic: "Carl, I'm Downey, and I've encountered a very strange thing."

"Donny? What a weird thing?" Carl felt sober, then said habitually, "if not strange. You have to apologize to me, disturbing others' sleep and dreams is a crime to go to jail, I will tomorrow You have to keep your spirit and listen to Grandpa Victor's concert. This may be his last concert. You must not miss it. You must not yawn ... "

"The black armored monster in the nightmare is attached to my right hand." Downey said bluntly, only in this way can Karl interrupt the east pull.

in fact. He also knows that Victor's concert will be held in Lentat tomorrow, and was introduced in "Voice of Mystery".

The music teacher of His Excellency Evans, even after taking the magic potion, decided to bid farewell to the concert because of his age. It is said that he held a closing concert in Aalto and Lentat to show classical music. No difference with pop music.

Although Victor is well known because he has a good student. But music lovers are well aware that Mr. Victor's achievements in the field of music are enough to be called masters, and his other students also have their own achievements in the field of music. Even if he is not as good as His Excellency Evans, it is not bad. Therefore, he is known as the best musician to teach students.

Carl's voice rose. It was sharp: "The black armored monster in the nightmare? Does your right hand show the characteristics of solidified black and white and gray? It has the suppressive effect on the necromancer and the elimination effect on the spell?"

"How do you know?" Downey was very surprised.

Karl laughed: "Of course I know that my father has seen it before and told it to me. Hey, thank you for telling me, otherwise your vitality will flow away quickly, maybe in a few years, your body will start to rot ... "

"What then?" Downey was glad he made the right choice.

Carl groaned: "There will be no problem in a short time. I will come to you after Grandpa Victor's concert, or, if you come to Rentat by the earliest train tomorrow, I will arrange for someone to pick you up."

"I'll be here tomorrow!" Donny dared to delay and decided to go to Lentat tomorrow morning. "Thank you, Carl, I won't bother you, I'll go back and take a rest first."

Karl said, "You wake me up and go to sleep by yourself? No, you have to chat with me!"

"You have to watch a concert tomorrow ..." Downey could only refuse so, he felt very exhausted.

Although Carl talked a lot, he was not willful. After hearing Downey's reluctance, he hung up the phone.

Back home quietly, Danny didn't dare to sleep and was afraid of having nightmares again, so he started meditating.

…………

Vaguely ~ www.novelbuddy.com ~ Hazy, during Downey's meditation, his body suddenly trembled, only to notice that the scene in front of him had changed greatly, surrounded by solidified black and white gray, chaotically reflecting the mountains and rivers In the urban and rural areas, countless undead creatures walked around, without a sound or extra color.

"Necropolis? I have a nightmare again?" Downey thought in amazement, and went into a dream without sleeping.

"Although the city is chaotic, it seems familiar ... It's Aalto mentioned in the Sky TV documentary," The Music Capital! "

Downey had no idea he would "come" to a city on the other side of the mainland.

Outside the city, two phantom figures looked at it all quietly, one of them whispered, "Brother, shall we just watch this?"

This seems to be Carl's voice, he can actually speak in the necropolis, although he himself only has black and white gray! (To be continued.
