Release that Witch Chapter 916: Reentering the Hinterland
"... I was the same as you before," Pasha said suddenly after a moment of silence. "Every time a partner goes out, I will stay in front of city gate. Federation also built an high tower there to give Everyone rests, and if the team comes back, you will know immediately.
"Do you mean Taqila?" Tilly asked.
"Yes, but few people will go there after a few years, except for Wei Weijun, do you know why?"
"..." She didn't have answer, but she already guessed that answer.
"Because I always get disappointment and sorrow." Pasha put tentacles on her shoulder. "The identification between witch transcends the bloodline. It is magic power that connects us together, whether it is ordinary combat witch or Holy Army members. As long as we have been together for a while, most of them will become sympathetic. However, this relationship also filled high tower with negative emotions, especially when it was difficult to wait until the return day, but only saw a corpse returned. Wait until the outer defense line was stepped When it was compressed and no one needed to go on the expedition, Federation ordered the dismantling of the high tower. "
"Do you want to say that waiting is unnecessary?"
"On the contrary, what I want to say is not to resist the waiting heart, which proves that you have not really experienced the feeling of loss." Pasha's tone is slow and soft, "I also hope that you will never become like me On such a day, -- indifferently regards sacrifice as usual. "
I haven't lost, whether I left the palace or went to Sleeping Island, I have made many decisions, many of them related to gains and losses, and even abandoning some of the same kind ... As long as I can go in the right direction, I do n’t There won't be too many hesitant. But some people are different. There are always one or two special people that will upset me. Tilly held the electro-optic magic stone ring -- in the handshake. If it was her, she could easily control the two magic stones alternately, but with Ash, she could only fly straight up and down, so the ring stayed in her hands.
But she did n’t say these ideas, just nodded slightly, "Thank you."
"You're welcome, I'll check the progress of the digging line of the desperate line of defense. There is a lounge at the entrance of the main hall. If you want to sleep, you can always go."
"I see."
After Pasha left the same way, Tilly suddenly felt cold in his palm.
She spread her hand and saw that the corner of the ring holding the magic stone was peeled off when she didn't know when, and penetrated into her skin, leaving a small drop of blood on it.
...
"It's the fifth day today, why haven't you seen the shadow of ruins?" Lotus mumbled, "I am underground every day, I am almost moldy."
"Where do I know, wherever you go to make a hole, I'll go wherever I go," a girl with a twisted braid shrugged, threw a piece of jerky into the air, then opened her mouth -- I saw that the jerky disappeared after a flash of blue light, but her cheeks bulged. "Yeah ... Neverwinter City's life is really well-deserved, even dry food can be so delicious."
"Hit, punch? Have you taken me as a mole!"
"It's almost the same."
"That ... it's better to save some food," Iffy sighed, "I don't want to be hungry when I go back."
"Well, I don't want to listen to Blood Tooth Association witch's preaching," the other side tilted his head, "I heard that you have played the idea of His Highness Tilly, if I say nothing about dried meat, I won't even give you the wheaten bread. "
Iffy rolled his eyes.
"Enough," Ash reluctantly said, "joining Blood Tooth Association is not their fault. If Tilly hears this, it will definitely teach you again."
"Uh ... okay." She didn't come down honestly until she moved out of Fifth Princess.
Another energy-saving guy, Ash sighed in his heart. The witch who was uneasy when she looked at it was Orbit, but she was an indispensable role in this action.
Orbit's ability is very incredible. Before under age, she was able to use magic power to create an invisible channel connecting two locations. The channel cannot be seen with the naked eye and there is no distance from --. In other words, she can instantly go from one location to another. Arriving at another location, if there is a barrier such as a door or a wall between them, Orbit seems to disappear suddenly. As long as the ability is not interrupted, the channel will always exist.
However, the limitation range of magic power still exists. The length of the two places cannot exceed twenty steps at most. If she starts with herself, the distance will be shortened to ten steps.
After adulthood, Orbit's awakening branch ability "magic power imprint" makes the practicality and application range of the channel greatly improved. -- gives imprints that she can make others see and use the channel. An unmarked person cannot prevent her free movement even if she knows where the passage is.
Of course, this ability also has certain dangers. For example, after giving a mark and letting the enemy enter the channel, and dissolving the ability while the opponent has not completely crossed, then you get half of the body that appears in both places. .
Relying on the cooperation of Lotus and Orbit to develop a broken bridge-like passage in the underground, which is unknown to the ghost, is the plan formulated by Tilly. Even if the enemy can find a burrow, it cannot locate witch through it. By the time Devil realized that there were still many such caves, they were already miles away, so theoretically it was an absolutely safe plan.
The course of the pedestrian action is from Hidden Forest set off, starting from stone tower of Agatha, and heading towards East north. The advantage is that the forest near the Neverwinter City side has been completely controlled by Leaf, and you don't need to worry about the Evil Beast Hybrid's threat.
However, Ash found a troublesome problem. The distance of several hundred feet during the exercise will hardly cause deviation, but after stretching dozens of times, it is difficult for them to confirm their position. Although the direction is corrected by the stars every night, no one knows right or wrong.
"Stop checking the map brought back by Logia?" Lotus looked at Ash. "Maybe we can find one or two landmarks. As long as we can determine the location, we can know how far ruins is from us. "
Ash nodded, but didn't hope much.
The birdhouses, beehives, and bear dens painted above are really directions? I am afraid that only Lightning and Macy can find the correct direction according to the map.
"Shh!" Iffy suddenly made a snoring gesture.
The three were quiet immediately.
Soon, they heard heavy footsteps from above their heads, and their steps were chaotic, proving that there were at least four to five people. Considering that Evil Beast Hybrid(s) rarely operates in clusters, the sound source is most likely to come from the patrol team of Devil.
After a while, they walked away from them, apparently the enemy did not notice the mystery hidden in the ground at all.
This is the second time today.
Presumably the werewolves' attacks increased their vigilance.
The Iffy was relieved until the sound completely disappeared. "This at least proves that we are in the right direction."
“The problem is that you ca n’t accurately place the light curtain if you do n’t see the city ruins.” Lotus shook his head. “If you want the phantom instrument to act as a warning, the light curtain should be five to six miles southwest of ruins. .In this way, as long as Dread Beast flies to Western Region, it can be seen by Taqila witch. "
Ash decided after thinking for a while, "I'll go for another night today, tomorrow evening, I will fly up to observe the direction of Taqila ruins."
