Chapter 15 Under the Devil's Claw

Morriss closed the door carefully and listened to the sounds on the first floor.

"What is the old man talking about...Forget it, just make sure he won't come up." Morses nodded and walked towards the end of the corridor.

"The balance of arcane energy was broken here..." Morses stopped in front of the window at the end of the corridor and inspected it carefully.

"Sure enough..." Morse touched the window and said softly, his eyes staring straight at the piece of glass at hand.

There was a small hole there that was small enough to be ignored.

Morsis turned his head, glanced at the other staircase beside him, and frowned little by little.

"Could it be that..." Morses murmured to himself.



Five minutes ago, after confirming that Trey had entered the orphanage, Lennon Sivens came to the other side of the building.

As a third-class "assassin", he has many ways to invade the house.

As long as Krabi's attention is not here.

After looking around to confirm that no one was around, Lennon raised his hand and used the Assassin class's transcendent ability "Hidden Arrow."

Hidden Arrow is one of the basic skills of the assassin class, but it is very practical. It allows assassins to release an invisible arrow out of thin air without any preparation.

This hidden arrow went straight through the glass on the second floor. Different from the general situation, the glass penetrated by the hidden arrow did not shatter completely, but only a small hole appeared.

Seeing that the hidden arrow hit the target, Lennon put a little force on his feet and easily crossed the fence of the orphanage, landing silently under the window.

As an assassin, Lennon was best at sneaking, concealing and assassinating. He easily climbed up the wall, quickly came to the window, and "drilled" into the small hole previously created by the hidden arrow.

This is also the transcendent ability of the Assassin class, which allows these killers to pass through holes of any size.

After entering the orphanage, Lennon quickly looked around, confirmed his location, and quickly ran to the third floor without making a single footsteps.

After arriving on the third floor, Lennon raised his hand to cover his left eye, looked around, and immediately locked onto his target.

He was unable to see through the void on the ceiling at the end of the corridor, which indicated that there was a specially set up magic circle located above it.

"Haha, Krabi Creevey...I've caught you now." Lennon took back the hand that was pressing on his left eye and sneered in a low voice.

He calmed down his emotions a little and walked towards the target, ready to explore the reality.

"Huh?" Suddenly, Lennon stopped and turned around suddenly, crossing his hands to protect himself in front of his body.

A fireball the size of a human head flew over and collided directly with Lennon's hands.

"Tsk, luckily I reacted in time, otherwise it would have been really painful." The fireball exploded instantly, but Lennon seemed fine. Even the clothes that collided head-on with the fireball were not damaged at all.

"You must be Morrissey, right? Mr. Perval's son..." Lennon looked around leisurely and said slowly, "Come out, don't think you can hide it from the eyes of an assassin."

As he spoke, Lennon walked towards the other end of the corridor, staring at the corner of the stairs.

"Come out...huh?" Lennon looked into it, but showed a very surprised expression.

There was no one there, but it was different from his perception.

Assassins have a very strong sense of the surrounding life forms, so there is no reason why they should make mistakes.



"I didn't expect to be able to deceive him..." Morsis was hiding in the utility room at the moment, only a few meters away from Lennon.

"What should I do? I haven't fully learned the substitute magic circle yet. The time is almost up. Once the magic circle fails, that guy will be able to target me very quickly..." Morsis was thinking crazily in his mind, trying to find a way to break the situation.

.

As soon as he discovered Lennon's trace, he followed him to the third floor and hid in a dark place until the other person headed towards the attic.

In desperation, Morsis fired a fireball as soon as his mind got hot. If he hadn't made up a substitute magic circle in time, Lennon would have caught him long ago.

"Interesting, a magic circle that hides aura? Let's see how long you can hold on..." Lennon shook his head and smiled, seeming to have forgotten about the attic-like walking around, and said as he walked, "Come out and tell me how to find the meteor."

A waste of treasure, I won’t kill you.”

While talking, Lennon sneered and opened a door, but found nothing.

"It doesn't matter, how long can your magic circle last... Is your level one or two? I don't think you can maintain that thing for more than five minutes." Lennon said with a sneer, his tone seemed very relaxed.

In his eyes, the other party is just an elementary transcendent person, and he has no reason to let the other party escape.

"But before that, how long can your luck last?" Just as he was saying this, Lennon was already standing outside the door of the utility room, and his right hand held the handle.

"Oh, I'm sorry." Suddenly, Lennon's eyebrows raised slightly, and his perception alerted again, indicating that there was a living being behind this door, "It seems that I overestimated you, but...

That’s it.”

Lennon said as he opened the door.

Light!

Extremely dazzling bright light erupted in front of Lennon's eyes, and at the same time, bursts of thunderous noises were heard in Lennon's ears.

This sudden interference caught the assassin off guard, and he instantly lost his ability to sense living things.

Morse took the opportunity to escape from the utility room, passed Lennon who was suffering from the strong light and thunder, and ran downstairs.

"The old man actually set up a defensive circle on the third floor. I thought he was joking with me." A few days ago, Morses joked about breaking into the attic, but Krabe said he couldn't break into the third floor.

defensive array.

As long as he reaches a certain amount of arcane energy, the defensive array on the third floor will be activated. In the utility room just now, Morsis has been working hard to speed up the consumption of arcane energy to achieve this goal.

But now, he could only escape from the third floor quickly. After all, those magic circles attacked indiscriminately, and he had just suffered a small part of the damage from the magic circles.

"That guy is Lennon Sivens?" Morsis looked back at the figure wearing a top hat and a Tussock suit, and then quickly fled from the third floor.

At this moment, Lennon Sivens' situation was not optimistic. After experiencing a series of attacks from the "Strong Light Array" and the "Thunder Array", he was also attacked by a mental oppression array.

"No, no...you can't move any more." Lennon was trying to calm down while enduring mental pressure.

At this moment, the strong light and thunder have gradually faded away. The two magic circles are not very aggressive, they just block vision and hearing.

"The entire third floor has a magic circle arranged by that scholar... Damn it, it was all caused by that kid. Now we have no choice but to retreat. Fortunately, we have mastered the location of the secret." Lennon said in his heart, and here

As time went on, the strength of the mental oppression gradually weakened.

Lennon picked up the plane and tried to calm himself down, and began to try to communicate with Ao Neng.

Whether you are a fighter or a spellcaster, the way to communicate arcana is to use mental power. The difference between them is that the fighter does not pay attention to the strengthening of mental power, but only uses it as a tool to communicate arcana, and uses arcana to strengthen the body.

Spellcasters, on the other hand, focus on the exercise of mental power and directly use mental power to manipulate arcane energy to release spells.

A burst of black air gradually appeared around Lennon, which was the unique use of arcane energy of the "Assassin" class.

A few seconds later, Lennon closed his eyes and walked straight to the end of the corridor.

According to common sense, Lennon should have triggered several magic circles at this moment and stood there to accept the attack, but in fact he did not receive any damage.

Lennon sometimes turned and sometimes paused, sometimes jumping or bending slightly... He kept this weird way of walking and reached the stairs safely.

"Danger Instinct", the third level skill of the Assassin class, allows the transcendent to have the ability to instinctively detect danger and avoid it.

For assassins who often walk on the edge of life and death, this skill is their ultimate trick, something that can save lives at critical moments!

Of course, it also has its upper limit. When faced with an enemy that can restrain its malicious intent or a desperate situation where death is inevitable, the "danger instinct" cannot save the assassins.

But at this moment, it undoubtedly helped Lennon a lot, but it also made Lennon lose his ability to continue fighting.

"Every time I use this, I feel weak..." Lennon whispered as he walked downstairs. He was ready to leave immediately through the small hole and go to the first floor to call Trey Mark back.

Lennon soon came to the window and transformed into a stream of air, passing through the small hole.

But what he didn't realize was that at the other end of the corridor on the second floor, Morse witnessed his whereabouts.

Because of the consumption caused by the "danger instinct" and the need to reserve the arcane energy in his body needed for retreat, he turned off the life perception ability that was always open.

Because of this, he did not discover the existence of Morses.

"What is that, the assassin's class ability? It seems to be described in the book..." Morrissey looked at the place where Lennon disappeared and muttered to himself.

He stood there blankly, not knowing what to do next.

"It's okay, let's go back." After a while, a slightly older voice came from the first floor, and it also startled Morsis.

The sound of footsteps was heard, and after a while, Morses saw Krabi walking upstairs.

"Old man, I have something to tell you."

"Kid, there's something we need to talk about."

After the two were stunned for a second, they said together.

So they continued to be stunned for a few seconds.

"Let's go to my office." Krabi smiled, pointed to the door not far away, and said.
