Chapter 456 Kidd Brand Storage Battery Please vote for me (?)
The servant was the sniper who had secretly fired the weapon just now.
The owner wanted to capture the surviving foggy dogs first, so when he fired, he naturally had no killing intention.
As for his magic power, he himself had low magic power. He had been privately instructed by Minamoto Hongna before to consciously avoid releasing magic power. Therefore, he successfully avoided Jiang Xia's hasty search.
Minamoto Kurenai remembered that during the radio contact just now, the servant said that although the shot he fired did not cause fatal damage to Kiriten Dog, it did graze the monster's leg.
Whether it was pieces of clothing or blood, they were excellent materials for divination or curses. Minamoto Kurenai specifically asked him to collect them and take them back.
However……
"I'm sorry, I couldn't find it." The servant bowed humbly, and his already short height became even lower:
"After Miss Hongzi left, I immediately went to the roof to search, but I couldn't find the pieces of clothing he dropped, nor did I see any blood or flesh foam."
Minamoto Hongna was startled, suddenly thought of something, her expression suddenly changed, and she stood up: "...Have you really searched carefully?!"
…
Deep forest outside Tokyo.
An old castle stands quietly.
In the corner room, Kidd was lying on the cold floor, still trying to destroy the magic circle under him, trying to create trouble for the two witches who were trapping the foggy dog.
At first, except for occasionally opening his eyes, he couldn't move an inch.
But idleness is idle anyway, so as soon as Kidd recovers from extreme fatigue, he will try to move his fingers.
After an unknown amount of time, he vaguely felt that some indescribable power gradually emerged from his body.
That force is very weak, but like water in a closed pool, it keeps dripping and slowly increases.
Kidd felt the changes in his body in confusion.
After watching for a while, he tried to use his mind to concentrate the weak power on his fingertips.
The originally cold fingers gradually regained a little warmth. The joints that seemed to have been frozen also showed signs of relaxation.
After having a clear goal, the highlight in Kidd's eyes returned a little.
He looked at his hand intently and moved it towards the nearest magic circle pattern.
Just as they met, there was a sudden sound of the window opening behind them. A shadow followed and fell from the window, covering most of the room under the projection of the wall lamp.
——The window was broken open, and someone flew in with a strong wind, and landed directly next to him with a clear target.
The magic circle holding Kidd loosened instantly, and the invisible restraint seemed to be quickly pulled away by something, weakening rapidly.
Kidd was startled, and when he looked up and saw the familiar hem of clothes, he was a little surprised.
...The foggy dog actually came to the door.
He was about to ask how Kiriten Dog found the place and what was happening to the two witches now.
But before he could say anything, he suddenly saw Wutian Dog squatting in front of him, staring at his fingers with great concern.
Then I couldn't help but reach out and touch it.
Kidd: "..."
The power he had accumulated for a long time was quickly withdrawn. The attention he had just used to stay awake also became difficult to concentrate. In addition, the magic power that imprisoned him in the magic circle completely disappeared. Kidd felt light, and suddenly a wave of energy emerged from his body.
Overwhelmed by overwhelming fatigue, his vision gradually blurred and swayed, eventually turning into darkness.
Jiang Xia looked at the strange thief who suddenly lay dead: "...?"
……what happened?
The little bit on Kidd's finger is so small that he can't even taste the magic. Is it actually very important?
Thinking of this possibility, Jiang Xia stretched out his hand and pushed Kidd with a slight conscience pain - he just suddenly discovered that Kidd had magic power, and that kind of magic power seemed to be different from that of Koizumi Hongzi.
Out of curiosity, I sucked the energy into the pattern and observed it...
The person on the ground didn't move, couldn't be pushed awake at all, and was as dizzy as Koizumi Hongzi a few nights ago.
Jiang Xia was silent for a moment, then stretched out her hand to feel her pulse. She found that the beat was quite steady, and it didn't look like there was a big problem. She was immediately reassured.
He stood up and looked around.
Jiang Xia was able to find this place because of the vague line that appeared on Koizumi Hongzi's body.
What happened in the past few days made him discover that Koizumi Anko seemed unable to see this kind of magical dotted line that represented a certain connection, and had very little control over it - it was difficult to even grasp its existence, so naturally she would not be much good at it.
Make a disguise.
So after leaving the building, Jiang Xia followed the impression and flew straight over.
Then, in the deep forest, I discovered a castle with a spooky and eerie painting style that seemed suspicious at first glance.
As they descended towards the castle, the ghosts they brought gradually let out excited murmurs.
——There seems to be a lot of magic reaction in the castle. Although it is not violent, the bits and pieces added up are almost comparable to a full-strength Koizumi Anko.
Jiang Xia immediately asked the ghosts to separate, and each ghost led a few shikigami to move all the magic power that could be moved.
He himself flew to the room with the most active magic reaction.
Then he broke open the window and saw Kid lying dead on the magic circle.
…
After finishing the magic circle hidden in this room, Jiang Xia lowered his head and glanced at the fainted Kidd, envisioned the magic power of the new flavor, and then kindly moved him to the sofa next to him.
After that, he pushed open the door and went out, preparing to take the shikigami with him to personally search this surprising castle.
Although it is not very kind to break into a house to steal magic power.
But judging from what happened just now, the purpose of the witches sending that notice letter was to make him show up.
Now that he showed up as promised and left without any reward, how could he justify it...
In addition, judging from Kidd's situation just now, it seems that he has not been made into a magic battery by Koizumi Anko - the line connecting him and Koizumi Anko should only be helping Koizumi Anko maintain the "kid"
The appearance of "virtue".
So now, Jiang Xia suspects that there is more than one magician here.
——Besides Koizumi Anko, there must be someone who provides her with magic power.
Koizumi Hongzi should have gone to move the reinforcements, but the reinforcements who were full of magical power refused to poke their heads out of caution.
...In this case, if you wander around the castle for a while, you might have the opportunity to wait and see the new mysterious magician.
…
When Jiang Xia went around beating the witches' magic weapons.
Mihua Art Theater.
On the stage, the male and female protagonists sit together at an ivory white round table, with a night sky full of artificial stars above their heads, a spotlight shining on them, and soothing and sad music flowing.
The play has reached the middle stage.
Now, according to the script, the two protagonists have done everything they want to do and are about to meet to die for love. However, they accidentally obtained the fake poison. After being resurrected, they will face social death and a series of other problems.
The painting style at the back is rather strange, but that is a story for another day.
But now, the atmosphere on stage is just pure sadness.
