The fighting may stop immediately, but it may continue for several hours.
Shade, who sensed that this place was dangerous and that he might be taken away by some large-scale attack, now had the idea of retreating further away.
He consciously hid himself in the dense forest, looking at the thick fog and thinking about the causes and effects of everything he saw tonight.
After confirming that it was safe, he bent down and hugged the cat and ran towards the depths of the fog. Fortunately, the power of the magical ritual still remained on this land, so there was no need to worry about running into evil spirits in the fog.
The thick fog prevented Shade from walking too fast, and he was still thinking about Joey Barton. At about 7:40 in the evening, Shade, who was hiding in the grass and covered by illusions, bumped into him again in the fog.
Running people.
Although the voice was very close, it was not directed at Shade. He ran through the forest ten meters away.
The fog was hazy, but between the leaves, Shade's eyes still caught the sight of a man dressed like a circus clown. He was tall and thin, wearing a red costume, and even had a red nose ball hanging on his nose.
Generally speaking, if you see this kind of person in the forest at night, then the person must be abnormal, but the clown seems to be just an ordinary person.
"Where did this guy come from? No, it has nothing to do with me. There is no need to go out."
The foreigner thought to himself and carefully put the cat into his arms to prevent it from barking and attracting attention.
Although the man dressed as a clown was an ordinary person, he moved very quickly in the forest and disappeared into the fog in a short while.
At the same time, he felt a slight burning sensation on his shoulder. He subconsciously covered his right shoulder, and then he realized that the red butterfly brand was burning, and that the red butterfly brand actually seemed to be coming from Sha De.
It felt like it was detached from his shoulder, and Xia De spent a lot of effort to press it down:
"That clown is one of the nails that Hazama sent to Middleburg?"
Shade thought in surprise.
This can explain the reason why the [Truth Society] suddenly called away Mr. Barton. Since Joey Barton can see the death dates of others, he can discover those who died in the past.
He did not catch up immediately because there were still sounds in the thick foggy forest.
Tens of seconds later, five or six men in black formal attire caught up, and one of them, Shade, actually recognized him as the [Truth Society] Gao who killed two companions in that deserted village before escaping from Helen.
Ring Warlock "Professor Johnson".
The few people around him were dressed in almost the same attire as him, and they all looked like scholars. These people were very fast, walking through the forest like the wind, obviously borrowing extraordinary power.
"People from the [Truth Society]? Are they chasing that clown? Did the clown escape by taking advantage of the Zhengshen Church's encirclement and suppression?"
But Shade still did not show up, but watched the group of people disappear. Because soon, a third group of people caught up from behind, and this time it was Mr. Button.
He looked extremely embarrassed, and because of his slight physical disability, he was not moving very fast in the forest. It was hard to tell whether the clown or Mr. Button was more terrifying in the forest at night. The weird childlike appearance, coupled with the
With that weird way of walking, normal people would probably turn around and run away when they encountered him.
"Mr. Button actually ran out?"
This scene surprised Shade even more than the appearance of the nails. The situation this afternoon was that the [Truth Society] was obviously ambushed and surrounded by the Orthodox Church. And Mr. Barton, a first-level warlock, was actually able to run to such an outskirts.
It's really unimaginable.
As Mr. Barton ran, he used thaumaturgy to restore the trampled branches and dead leaves in the forest to their original appearance. Compared with the people in front of him who ran and chased without any scruples, he was more afraid of being discovered.
He was stained with blood. Although it was very slight, it was not difficult to track him in the dense forest. Therefore, Shade did not catch up immediately, but weighed the pros and cons in his mind.
He squinted his eyes slightly and looked into the distance. This time, it took a full minute for the fourth group of people to follow him. And this time, the people who came were finally the Zhengshen Church.
It was a team of fully-organized warlocks from the Church of the Sun, and Shade even saw Iluna among them. She was wearing a women's hunting suit that was convenient for movement, with a large sun-patterned holy emblem hanging on her chest, and in her left hand she held the [Judge's Holy Emblem].
Bell], with the cloth sword wrapped around his wrist, and around his waist is the mirror harvested at the Fire Festival banquet.
The group of people followed the traces on the ground, but because of Mr. Button's cover-up, they were unable to find the direction in the thick fog.
This is not because the first-level sorcerer's thaumaturgy is very powerful, but because the forest is foggy at night, it is not an easy place to track.
"Iluna has appeared, I must help."
Thinking in his mind, Shade let go of his right shoulder, which was covered by his left hand. As the burning pain intensified, a red light appeared under his clothes. Then, a transparent red butterfly flew out from under his clothes, its wings turned.
Flying, scattering little red lights in the air.
"Go quickly!"
Shade pointed in the direction of Iluna in a low voice, and the red butterfly actually seemed to understand, and flew out of the range of the illusion and flew towards the church group.
"Miss Bayas!"
The full team of the Zhengshen Church has its own operational responsibilities. The ring warlock responsible for searching the direction of travel soon discovered the red shadow in the thick fog. Then the shadow got closer and closer, coming from the white fog.
It was a transparent red butterfly.
"Red butterfly?"
Hongdie stopped at a location not far away from them, and then repeatedly zoomed in and out, hoping that they would follow in the fog. However, out of caution, the group did not follow immediately, and even Iluna looked a little hesitant.
Shade, who was hiding in the grass, shook his head to dispel the illusion, and then gently patted little Mia on the head.
"Meow~"
A slight meow of a cat cannot travel very far in the forest, because this is a suburb of the city, so even if someone hears the sound, it will not be strange.
Iluna's ears twitched, and she looked at the surrounding fog suspiciously, with a look of realization on her face, and then pointed at the red butterfly:
"Follow it, it is leading the way for us."
Others did not question Iluna's decision, so the group followed the transparent red butterfly away.
"Don't make any noise for a while."
Shade in the shadow behind the tree whispered to the cat in his hand. The squatting little Mia widened her amber eyes and nodded obediently, so Shade put it on his shoulder and confirmed that
After finally no one appeared in the fog again, we followed him into the thick fog.
After passing through this private woodland belonging to the local nobles, we came to the lake at the foot of the mountain. Shade had seen this lake on the sand table at the Red Water Camp. The mountain streams originating from the mountain top lake converged at the foot of the mountain.
It became this lake and connected to the nearby water system. This lake is called "Lake Bena". One side of the lake is woodland and the other side is two small hills.
Perhaps because of the water vapor, the thick fog around the lake has dispersed a lot. You can see the moon at this time, stopping just between the hills, reflecting the three-color moonlight on the lake, making the sparkling waves more vivid.
texture.
When Shade followed the church group to the lake, the battle had already occurred.
The battle took place on the lake. I don’t know who used thaumaturgy to freeze the lake on a large scale. Everyone was standing on the ice at this moment, and the two sides fighting were actually the ordinary clown and the three members of the [Truth Society].
Famous Ring Warlock.
"Hehehehehaha."
The disordered laughter became clearer and clearer as Shad approached the edge of the woodland. The clown was still not a ring warlock, but the concentration of the whispering element in him far exceeded most of the relics Shad had seen.
On the lake under the moon, he smiled maniacally, and his shadow gradually faded until it disappeared. Two extra hands stretched out from behind, and the four hands were holding Rhodes cards, a red nose ball, a black dagger and a knife.
An old-fashioned matchlock gun.
His crazy laughter even caused cracks to appear on the ice, and with the laughter, his figure under the moon continued to disappear and appear. This was actually the ability to move in space.
Shade didn't fight him head-on, so he couldn't tell how dangerous he was. However, even though the ring magicians of the [Truth Society] had revealed their life rings, they were still suppressed and beaten by the opponent. Of course, this was also related to their levels.
Only two of them were in the middle ring, and the others were in the low ring. And the professor who was originally in the high ring actually had red butterfly-like rust on his brass life ring. Obviously, Helen let him run away without worrying at all.
He can also cause other troubles.
The Rhodes cards in the Joker's hand seemed to be endless, scattering in all directions like a continuous machine gun. No one dared to touch the cards with cursed power. And once the thrown nose ball touched an object, it would
It makes objects collapse like building block puzzles; the black dagger is extremely sharp, not only can it throw out a black blade, it can even cut off the spiritual weapon in the hand of a high-level warlock; and the old matchlock gun is even more exaggerated, although it needs to be separated by 20
It takes several seconds to fire a shot, but once it is fired, cracks appear in the space.
"It turns out that the 'nail' who knows his identity is so scary."
Shade was very fortunate that the woman in the deserted village was caught before she could show her strength. Considering that the fewer the number of nails, the stronger the power of the remaining nails, I am afraid that things will be more difficult in the future.
Iluna and her group had followed Hongdie to the lake, and of course the people on the lake noticed them.
They didn't even use the three people from the [Truth Society] to lead the clown to them. The clown actually split apart under the moon. His flesh swelled, and then, entangled in the disgusting black mucus, two identical clowns appeared on the left and right.
split from the swollen body.
One person continued to fight the [Truth Society], and another person appeared next to Iluna while laughing maniacally:
"You are all going to die!"
The holy bell rang softly, and Iluna responded with a sunshine gun.
The scene became more and more chaotic. The clown seemed to be able to adjust his strength according to the number of opponents. Even if he faced the entire team of ring warlocks by himself, he was still not at a disadvantage.
