Advent of the Archmage

Chapter 249: Celine's nightmare

Views:

Link came across the black magic letter as soon as he returned to the territory, so he didn't have time to understand the current situation of the territory.

At this time, he saw the soldier saying that Doras was out on patrol. Although he was a little startled, he didn't rush to draw conclusions, and continued to ask, "Has Doras go out often recently?"

"Occasionally, it will go out for a walk, especially after eating. It just ate a cow." The soldier didn't feel anything wrong.

Well, since Doras is not there, Link can only use magic to catch up with Mirda. Fortunately, she has only been away for less than five minutes, so she should not have gone far.

Thinking of this, Link walked all the way to the east gate of the Scorched Earth Ridge camp. After walking a few tens of meters, he saw Lucy walking from the civilian area outside the camp to the camp, and immediately stopped her.

"My lord, are you back?" Lucy's face showed joy.

"Well, I just came back not long ago. Now I have something to do!" Link said solemnly.

"Tell me." Lucy shivered and became serious.

"Go find Yake now and ask him to strengthen the patrol of the magician's residential area at night. You tell him that someone may sneak attack those magicians at night, and nothing goes wrong!"

The sneak attack is just Link's guess, and it may not happen, but there is always nothing wrong with strengthening the defense.

Lucy looked serious, nodded and said: "Don't worry, nothing will happen!"

"okay."

Link continued to walk towards the east gate, and when he passed a wooden house, he suddenly heard a familiar voice: "Link, hey, this way, look this way."

Turning around, it was Celine. She was lying on the window of the wooden house, with her head sticking out, and she was beckoning to him gently. Seeing her appearance, she bowed and hid in the window, showing half of her face, like a thief of.

Link looked funny, and his solemn mood became a little more relaxed. He walked to the window and smiled, "What are you doing?"

Celine had no intention of joking at all. She ran to the door and opened a crack, revealing only a small face: "Come in quickly, I have something to say to you."

Link was a little embarrassed, he was about to chase Mirdad back, and said: "Why don't you wait, I have something urgent here."

Celine pouted, unhappy: "My matter is also very important."

Well, let that proud elf princess go, Link opened the door and walked into the cabin: "Sure, we don't have much time, five minutes."

"Five minutes is enough." Celine smiled like a flower. She took Link to the corner of the wooden house, then reached out and took out a basic wand. After a while, the tip of the wand suddenly showed white light. There is a very strange breath.

Link felt a slight movement in his mind, and he was actually affected.

There was also a voice in his mind, it was the sword spirit of the Storm Lord Sword: "The little girl's blood talent has begun to awaken, this is the mysterious power."

Link was genuinely happy, and lightly patted Celine on the shoulder, praising: "It's really good."

"Oh, it's not this." Celine's face was still full of anxiety, she said: "The point is not this power, but the changes this power brings to me. I don't know what's wrong recently, I always do it when I sleep. nightmare."

"Nightmare?" Link's heart skipped a beat.

There are two situations where a person has continuous nightmares.

One is that there are hidden dangers in physical health. During sleep, the weak signals sent by the body are received by the brain, which is reflected as a nightmare. This condition is more common in ordinary people.

The second is that the soul of this person has a premonition that something terrible is about to happen, but because the future is uncertain, it shows some vague horror scenes in sleep. This usually happens among magicians, and some magicians with special talents will be particularly sensitive.

Before the level 8 demon Taluvis escaped, both Link and Verola had nightmares, which were later confirmed to be true.

Celine's body must be fine. Seeing that her face is ruddy, her skin is crystal clear, her skin is plump, her eyes are even more radiant, and she is extremely healthy. Then there is only the second situation.

Here, Celine is still struggling with her nightmare, and said worriedly: "I don't know why, but I suddenly have this power. Do you think my nightmare is related to this power?"

In Celine's eyes, Link was the authority on magic, and the two were very close, so she naturally turned to him for more intimate issues like nightmares.

Link comforted: "There should be some relationship, but it's not a big problem. Tell me, what's in the nightmare?"

"It's scary." Celine's eyes showed horror: "I dreamed that the Scorched Earth Ridge turned into a pool of blood, corpses were floating everywhere, and there were black figures that couldn't be seen clearly, running around at a very fast speed. It was so fast, they killed anyone they saw, a black shadow spotted me, and I ran, but I couldn't run away. I also saw you, you were covered in blood, you were shouting at the top of your lungs, and Sister Lucy, she fell to the ground, her eyes were open, but she was dead... Ah~ I can't go on!"

As she spoke, Celine seemed to be touched by the tragedy in her dream, and tears appeared in her eyes, and tears flowed from the corners of her eyes.

Link was even more startled when he heard this. Seeing Celine like this, he felt pity in his heart, and he couldn't help reaching out to hold her in his arms, and comforted her softly: "It's okay, this is just a dream, and I'm here."

"Yeah." Celine nodded slightly.

Link was calm on the surface, but turbulent waves had already started in his heart. In his mind, the voice of the Storm Lord's sword sounded again: "Boy, the blood of the soul master has a very powerful predictive ability. This dream may come true."

"I know." He is a magician, how could he underestimate such an obvious premonition of danger.

After thinking about it, Link said, "Celine, let's go, I'll take you to find someone."

Originally, he wanted to go after Mirdad alone, but after hearing this dream, he no longer dared to leave Shilin alone in Scorched Earth Ridge.

Celine didn't think much, and nodded in agreement.

Taking Celine out of the cabin, Link happened to see Jacques. This big man had been notified by Lucy, and he was busy arranging the defense of Scorched Earth Ridge. When he saw Link, he stepped forward and acted seriously. He gave a military salute: "My lord."

Link took a look and found that Yake's fighting spirit had increased a bit, reaching level 5. The epic fighting Qigong method was really extraordinary, and Yake broke through in this short period of time.

This is very good!

Link said: "I feel that the situation is not good. I'm afraid there will be some accidents. You go and inform all the magicians in the camp to be more vigilant."

"I see."

Link remembered something again and asked, "Is Ellette still in Scorched Earth Ridge?"

Yake nodded: "He has been, recently helping to build the magic tower."

"That's fine, if... I'm talking about protecting him if something happens."

"Yes." Yake looked awe-inspiring, and felt a dangerous breath from Link's tone.

"Very good. The high elf princess Mirda left the camp. It was too late. I was worried that she would encounter danger on the way, so I was going to chase her back. During this time, the safety of the camp depends entirely on you."

"Bang!" Yake clenched his fist and smashed his chest, making the promise of a soldier.

Link finally nodded, summoned the giant wind wolf on the spot, helped Celine climb up behind the wolf, and climbed up to sit behind Celine himself.

'Howl~~' The Gale Wolf let out a low growl, and rushed out quickly.

The speed limit of the Gale Wolf is about 70 meters per second, which is quite fast, but Link has been chasing out of the camp for more than ten miles, but there has been no figure of the elf princess in front of him, and he can only vaguely feel the demon left by the other party. Can breath.

"It seems that the elf princess also used the magic of rushing." Link smiled at Celine in his arms.

The Scorched Earth Ridge is very small, and Celine had seen Mirdad and his party before, so she was a little puzzled: "Are you talking about those high elves who are arrogant? I just saw that they seemed to be very rude to you."

Link nodded: "It's indeed very rude, and I don't think they are too pleasing to the eye. But compared with the racial alliance, this is a small matter. She must not have an accident in our territory."

A mature lord will never confuse personal disputes with politics. In politics, there is no friendship, only interests. Without benefits, even brothers can turn against each other.

Of course, Link won't do this, he has his own bottom line, but for the elf princess Mirda, his current bottom line is, don't let her cause trouble in his own territory, just let him make a fuss.

While talking, he ran for more than a mile, and Link suddenly stopped: "Yeah? Why did the magic energy disappear?"

This place is about four kilometers away from the port. It is a low-lying land surrounded by rolling hills. The vision is very bad, and there is no magic energy to guide it. Link paused and prepared to control the Gale Wolf to run up Observe the situation from the side mound.

However, as soon as he had this thought, more than a dozen black figures emerged from the surrounding mounds. The next moment, Link heard a hoarse voice: "Shoot!"

The sound of 'click click' appeared, followed by the piercing sound of the sharp crossbow.

"Be careful!" Celine yelled subconsciously, and then she fell silent. She was once a powerful fighter with rich combat experience, and she knew that the most important thing she should do at this time was not to distract Link.

Link's reaction was extremely fast. When the black shadow appeared, he focused his gaze and instantly triggered the level 5 defensive magic Edelweiss. Then, he released a directional Pyroblast on one side of the shadow.

When the opponent shot a crossbow arrow, the Pyroblast technique also exploded, and there was a loud 'boom', and the conical stream of flames pushed towards the black shadow.

However, what happened next surprised Link.

The reaction speed of these black shadows is also extremely fast. The time for Link to release the directional pyroblast technique is only 0.3 seconds. From 30 meters away, the coverage area of the directional pyroblast technique exceeds 20 meters, but the opponent unexpectedly hides out.

Not only did he hide, but he still didn't forget to attack during the avoidance process.

Link's heart moved slightly: "Why are they so confident that they think the crossbow arrows can break through my defensive magic?" '

Just in case, Link entered a state of absolute concentration, and the passage of time suddenly slowed down. Immediately afterwards, he found that there was something wrong with the crossbow bolts. They were blue-black in color, and were shrouded in a faint blue light. Through these rays of light, you can see a large number of finely divided rune lights and shadows.

'No, it's a powerful magic-breaking arrow! My edelweiss can't stop it! '

The powerful magic-breaking arrow uses magic gold specially made by alchemy, and it is engraved with a disturbing magic circle up to level 5. Its principle is also different from that of ordinary magic-breaking arrows. Can structure to make magic collapse.

Usually, such magic arrows can break through the top level 6 defensive magic, and with the fast attack speed of crossbow arrows, most magicians cannot activate level 6 defensive magic within this period of time.

Therefore, the powerful magic-breaking arrow is also known as the 'mage nemesis'

Link reacted quickly, sensing danger, and Shengsheng used his special skill in the last tenth of a second: space lens.

With a soft sound of '嗡~', the space distorted, and strange ripples immediately appeared in the space around Link and Celine.

In the next moment, the crossbow bolt penetrated into the distorted space.

The power of space can affect all mortal things. As long as the power of this mortal thing does not exceed the limit of this magic, Link can block it by controlling the degree of distortion of space.

This limit is the peak of level 7. This is not because the space magic is not good, but because the magic reaches the peak of level 7, it will affect Link's space magic energy structure, causing the magic energy structure to collapse.

Obviously, the strength scale of a few crossbow bolts is far from reaching the peak level of level 7.

'Swish swish~' In the distorted space, crossbow bolts crossed curves, and these crossbow bolts just brushed against the bodies of Link and Celine and flew out without posing the slightest threat to Link.

"withdraw!"

Soi Ying is extremely straightforward, if he misses a hit, he will flee away immediately.

But how could Link let them just go
