Light Spirit Epic Chapter 2679: Cut the darkness in the blink of an eye
Chapter 2679 slaying the darkness in the momentary light (sixty one)
Not only Albert, but Eric was aware of the approaching army in the distance - or he knew from the beginning that such a group was approaching.
"Let's go. I'll be your queen." The counselor said dispassionately.
"But why are you helping me?" Albert asked in confusion. Originally, it was incomprehensible that Eric appeared in such a place driving an iron cavalry. It was even more difficult for him to help Albert.
"How to say it. Because I'm also a [transcender], so I can be your companion." Eric walked out of the cockpit of the iron cavalry and floated in the air with a wonderful technique. It is obviously not the [Dance of the Sky] commonly used by magicians, because Eric's body does not emit the [Excess Light] when using magic.
All magic in the world consumes photons when used. When photons are converted into physical phenomena required for magic, they will inevitably be consumed, and they will not be 100% perfect, and there will definitely be wasted parts. This "wasted part of the photons" is actually consumed as light energy, that is, the [excess light] that comes with magic.
There is no excess light on Eric, and he floats purely by other forces. It was a "force" -- he counteracted his own gravity with some kind of propulsive force created out of thin air. Since that kind of "anti-gravity" is not achieved by magic, that is to say------
"[The Second Miracle---Quality Energy Creation]?" Albert narrowed his eyes. He hadn't played against Eric, and Bedivere had never told him anything about Eric, so he could only guess at this point.
"Yes." The strategist replied, "Didn't Bedivere tell you about this?"
This guy is definitely getting close. Albert asked calmly: "So, that's all? Because it's a [companion], come to help me?"
"Of course, I can't help you unconditionally." Eric replied: "You who have caught a glimpse of [Understanding] is my life-saving straw. I have been disabled since birth, and I can be like this now. Action, it's all about the [second miracle] that drives my disabled body. But that's not my end goal."
"Do you want to learn more [truths] from [reasons beyond the strings], so that the disabled body can be restored to its original state." The tiger man asked presumably.
"Yes." The counselor Eric replied: "Walking on these two legs without any external force is the pursuit of my life. Those of you who are born with healthy bodies probably don't understand. ."
"...But even if you ask me, I may not be able to help you." Albert frowned. At most, he can only allow himself to enter the [Transcendental Sanctification] mode, connecting himself in the present world with [Principles beyond the strings]. Asking him to help others to enter the [Principles beyond the Strings] is not something that can be done with words.
"We'll talk about this later." Eric glanced up into the sky and retreated into the cockpit: "If you are captured by the ivory tower people, my wish will not come true. You are still Concentrate on escaping the pursuit of the Great Wizarding Society."
The iron giant that the iron cavalry turned into flew up, hovered in the air like that, and released several large floating shields, which was already in a state of war.
"Okay." The tiger man also ran to his iron cavalry, ready to carry Mutter and run away: "Goodbye (Kama) by fate."
However, when he ran close to his iron cavalry and just wanted to pick up Mutter, who was resting on the beach because of a fever, he found that the cat boy was gone.
"Er... Mutter?" Albert said in surprise, looking at a tiger-striped kitten lying on the beach.
That kitten that can be lifted with one hand, could it be Mutter?
But why?
Albert knew that orcs could use [Beast Transformation] to temporarily transform their bodies into the corresponding animals.
He had seen Bedivere turn into a wolf. Even Albert himself can use [Beast Transformation] to turn into a tiger, but he is not good at controlling this technique, and this technique has little practical significance, so he rarely uses it.
But Mutter has never been trained in transfiguration, so why would he suddenly use lycanthropy? Moreover, why did he become a beast at such a time?
Are you sick with a fever? No, is [Abyss] affecting Mutter? This is the only reasonable explanation for now.
"Damn!" Albert groaned. Running away now is more important than that. He picked up the tiger-striped kitten, put Mutter in his arms with his coat, and jumped onto the iron cavalry.
It only took him a few seconds to fire the cavalry into the air. At this time, the group of mages were very close. The people in the [choir] also noticed that Albert, who wanted to escape on the cavalry, started firing countless snowballs towards the cavalry.
Eric drove the giant cavalry to come to support, and used the shield floating in the air to easily block the non-lethal snowball: "Run! What are you still doing!"
"Understood, what are you urging!" Albert scolded, stepping on the accelerator suddenly. The engine of his iron cavalry rumbled and flew out in an instant. In order to prevent the tiger-striped kitten in his pocket from falling off, he could only reduce the speed of the cavalry, fasten the seat belt, and operate the cavalry with only one hand, while the other hand was held in front of his chest.
[Chorus] More attacks came from there, and Albert swayed his cavalry left and right to dodge, while speeding up to escape. Thanks to Eric's support, he managed to escape from the rain of snowballs, flying farther and farther, and finally escaped the attack range of the mages' snowballs. The snowball that was originally hit by a parabola could only fall in accordance with the laws of physics, and could no longer touch Albert's iron cavalry.
The magicians seemed to take their anger at Eric the strategist, starting with snowballs and gradually switching to more powerful lightning and fireball attacks. They probably wanted to deal with the strategist in the way as quickly as possible, and then speed up to catch up with the fleeing Albert. However, Eric, who was focused on defense, controlled dozens of floating shields, and while retreating, he was airtight to resist the enemy's magic attack.
When Albert's iron cavalry dragged out a long blue tail flame and completely disappeared at the end of the sky, the fierce attack of the [chorus] gradually subsided.
"That's it." Eric in the cockpit didn't know who he was communicating with.
"That tiger has gone away?" A familiar voice entered the cockpit.
"Probably. You can stop acting." Eric replied, letting the cavalry land from the sky and walking out of the cockpit himself. The mages used all kinds of magic to bombard Eric and his iron cavalry as if they were facing the enemy, but now that the strategist Eric came out of the iron cavalry, the mages did not do anything to him at all.
"Aren't you afraid of him eavesdropping?" The mysterious voice still asked suspiciously: "For example, there is a doppelganger or something—"
"That little tiger is not that kind of person, and he can't have that kind of mind." Eric replied, "So, how long are you going to lie there and pretend to be dead?"
The other party paused. Immediately afterwards, the captain of the [First Honor Guard], Reinhardt, climbed up from the pool of blood as if nothing had happened, and patted the dust on his body.
All of this is just a game set up by their partnership.
"This is not the same as what I said." Reinhardt took out a medicine and took a few sips, and complained after recovering a little: "I almost caught him. Why didn't I notify me that the plan changed midway? ? If I hadn't been smart enough to know right away that I would play with you, I'd probably get dressed up right away!"
"No, this was the plan from the beginning, but I didn't tell you [the first honor guard] in advance." Eric said: "If you want to fool your opponent, you must fool your teammates first."
"You must be joking with me!" Reinhardt stomped his foot irritably: "Blood Mist is a technique that consumes my life. I've been fighting for this, but you guys even me It's all a lie! You bastard! And is it really necessary to use this kind of trick? It would be good to just stun him and tie him back to the ivory tower------"
"You should know better than anyone else, that's not feasible." The other party replied: "Brain squeezing can't take out knowledge from [the truth beyond the strings], because that kind of knowledge does not exist in transcendence. In the head of the man, it exists in [elsewhere]. Now clumsily tying him back will only have the opposite effect. If the little tiger refuses to cooperate, you will never ask for any information from his mouth in your life. ."
"There will always be a way. The Great Master Association is full of geniuses. Even if the spell doesn't work, there must be a way to break through the guy's psychological defense from the perspective of physics, pharmacology, and even spirituality."
"You'd better give up this idea." But Eric the counselor suddenly turned from a frivolous attitude to a serious face: "Listen. This is a deal between me and the ivory tower. And it's Snape. The professor personally gave me an order to let me handle this matter completely. Don't interfere, just follow the script given to you."
Reinhardt frowned. He is indeed just dispatched from the ivory tower to work, similar to the role of a mercenary. In the Great Mage Association, the status is high or low, and it is impossible for him not to obey the orders directly issued by the big figures above, even if these orders sound unreasonable. But maybe the bigwigs above have their own ideas?
However, this strategist Eric is just an "airborne" commander. He is not a member of the Great Mage Association. Naturally, Reinhardt can't completely trust the other party. What did the bigwigs above think, to find an outsider to take charge of this operation?
That guy doesn't have the honor and awareness of being a mage~IndoMTL.com~, and he doesn't have the faith and restraint of being a magician. He is just a layman. Who can guarantee that he will obediently share [research results] with the ivory tower, rather than take it all?
"What are you going to do next?" The mage asked tentatively.
"Not much. I'm currently selling my favor to that little tiger. That's enough. Pushing [the script] forward will only create unnaturalness, and he will sense our true intentions." Eric returned to the cockpit of the iron cavalry, and by the way transformed the iron cavalry, from the appearance of the iron giant back to the airship mode, "You guys retreat. Follow the plan and stick to your troops---until you are needed again."
The strategist Eric started the cavalry's engine and swaggered away.
"That guy..." Reinhardt watched the other party away with a slight dissatisfaction, and turned to look at his subordinates. Many mages in the first honor guard have been hit hard by Albert's **, and have been unconscious for more than ten minutes. It is estimated that they will wake up in another ten minutes. Although the tiger did not kill, the method of knocking people unconscious was unequivocal. Reinhardt's men will probably be complaining about headaches for the next few days.
