Can you believe what Haierbo said
Although the series of actions he has made so far, as well as his reputation that has been handed down since ancient times, will make most people stay away from him. Not to mention believing what he said, even getting a little closer to him is an unacceptable thing for many people.
But Maka felt that to a certain extent, Haierbo also had his own principles.
It's just... Of course, regardless of whether Helbo was telling the truth or not, Maka had no intention of letting the basilisk go. In his opinion, since the basilisk seems to be very important to Haierbo, he naturally has a reason to fight for it.
As for Haierbo's purpose of bringing out this basilisk, it's such a trivial matter that he can figure it out after he takes the basilisk back first!
"Mr. Haierbo," Maka replied quickly without thinking much, "Maybe you think she has nothing to do with me, but to me, it has a big relationship... Keep her, you Let’s go! Otherwise, be prepared to give up your body again this time!”
Having said this, Maka gently raised the staff in his hand, and fine ice crystals flew around him.
"You know, actually I don't want to fight you at all right now -" Maka said lightly, "Isn't it boring to fight someone who will be resurrected no matter what?"
In the end, he borrowed the word "boring" that Haierbo had used before, and even the tone was the same, which showed that he just wanted to make the other party angry.
However, if Haierbo could be angered by Maka's words, then his life at such an old age would probably be in vain.
Just as Maka finished speaking, Haierbo shook his head slightly.
"McLean, although you say you don't want to fight me, you are actually pressing me harder and harder. Since you don't want to give in, what else can you say is interesting and boring?"
As he spoke, Haierbo also raised his hand, and a blazing flame began to beat in his palm.
The flame didn't seem to have much power, but it made the basilisk behind it shrink back quickly, and there was a bit of fear in the vertical pupils that humans could understand.
Maka's eyes were still slightly closed, but his subtle perception of magic power did not relax at all. At this moment, he could clearly feel the power contained in the flame... which was undoubtedly also a derivative of the rules.
But unlike Maca's pure cooling rules, the burning rules used by Haierbo are mixed with some soul rules. While the former serves as the foundation, the thing that keeps the flame burning is the soul.
I remember that during the London disaster, this kind of special flame caused many people to be seriously injured and died. The power was really extraordinary.
However, Maka did not study it after the incident, but until now, she has not been able to analyze its specific magic principles.
Obviously, in addition to biological modification, Haierbo's magical attainments still exceed Maka's current theoretical limits in many aspects.
But then again, even if you don't know the complete magic principle, it doesn't mean you are helpless in actual combat.
Maka knew that as long as he dealt with it with the part of the soul rules he had mastered. Not to mention taking advantage of the trend to counter Haierbo, at least competing with the opponent is not a big problem.
Not to mention anything else, since he was able to heal all those who had hurt their souls, this is enough to explain some problems.
But after a while, Maka and Haierbo were still standing face to face. One of them held a staff with ice crystals floating around, and the other stared at the sparks swaying in the palm of his hand, but none of them made the first move.
Could it be said that they are trying to stop the situation with silence, and both sides want to strike later
No, stop talking nonsense!
As mentioned before, neither of these two guys wanted to start this fight at all.
The reason is that Maka seems to be too lazy to waste his efforts - according to what he just said, Halbo can't die anyway, and there is not much point in killing him; and what Halbo is worried about is what Maka mentioned before "Backhand".
Since this encounter was an accident, Haierbo, who hurried here after noticing the strange movement of the Basilisk, knew that he really had no advantage.
However, he didn't know that Maka had also arrived in a hurry this time. How could he have any chance to arrange backup? If he was determined to threaten London above his head, there was really nothing Maka could do.
Therefore, because the two people each had their own concerns, but neither wanted to give up the ownership of the basilisk, they were forced to stalemate.
For a moment, the scene was somewhat awkward.
And in this dead silence, the windbreaker wizard who had been standing behind Maka suddenly moved.
She walked a few steps forward silently, and slowly stood beside Haierbo and Maka under the secret attention of the latter.
Immediately, a large piece of ice crystal began to condense behind her.
In just a few seconds, a pair of crystal clear wings unfolded from the ice crystal, setting off a gust of cold wind in the waterway space.
Obviously, this is the ice bird that the windbreaker wizard controlled when he first helped Maka. Like Mr. Blois's flame dragon, it is also the product of spiritual summoning.
At this moment, when the windbreaker wizard summoned this giant ice bird out of thin air, Maka couldn't help but pay more attention.
Although he had long since lost his intention to find out the other party's identity, when he saw this big guy for the second time, he was still secretly surprised by some familiarity in it.
In addition to the soul rules, which are the basis of spirit summoning, there is no doubt that Ice Bird's body also contains the power of cooling rules.
Of course, what puzzles Maka even more is that she didn't take action sooner or later. What was she thinking about standing up now
However, let’s not mention the doubts in Maka’s heart.
The summoning technique of the windbreaker wizard is quite effective in terms of deterrence alone. Haierbo also seemed to understand that when Maka and the windbreaker wizard joined forces, he would not be able to get any benefits at all.
As time passed, and seeing that the basilisk probably couldn't be taken away, he couldn't help but frown slightly.
There weren't many choices left for her today, either to leave alone or to fight with all his strength. And if you choose the latter, the consequence of failure is to give up this body.
As for which one is more important, the basilisk or his body... Just thinking about his plan, Haierbo knew that the answer was actually obvious.
"good!"
However, he suddenly grasped his right hand, and the flames that were originally fluttering in his palm were immediately caught by him and turned into a shower of sparks that disappeared without a trace.
"You want her, then I'll give it to you... I just hope you don't waste the 'trophies' you took from me, otherwise, I can only deeply regret this."
It can be seen that Haierbo is indeed a little unwilling. It can be seen that he must have spent a lot of energy on the basilisk, and its ultimate goal is also of high value.
As for what that "purpose" is, Maka feels very excited just thinking about it.
The next second, when a slight spatial fluctuation passed by, Haierbo instantly lost its trace in the perception of Maka and the windbreaker wizard.
Yes, considering all aspects, neither of them tried to stop the other person from leaving.
After the sewer became quiet again, Maka's attention returned to the basilisk. He could feel that she seemed to be slightly relieved by Hai Erbo's departure.
Knowing that the other party probably did not understand human language, Maka simply waved to her. But this time, the basilisk did not resist his instructions. Although it was still hesitant, it still twisted its body and slowly swam in front of him.
"She understands the current situation very quickly and has her own ideas... She indeed possesses human wisdom."
Maka thought about this, and then thought about where it would be more appropriate to place her. After thinking about it for a while, he finally came to the conclusion that it was best to keep it with him.
First of all, a detailed inspection is essential, but with Haierbo's methods, he can't guarantee that he will not make any omissions.
In this case, he definitely couldn't let such a basilisk created by Helbo stay alone in Hogwarts - even if he was well prepared, it would be too risky!
Therefore, he felt it was better to just run around with the Acromantula, shrink the Basilisk and keep it in a place where he could control it at all times.
After thinking for a moment, Maka waved her staff, first shrinking all the alienated Acromantulas around her, and then calling them back to the container where the Traceless Stretching Curse had been cast.
After he completed this series of actions in front of the basilisk, he pointed the staff at the basilisk and cast a powerful shrinking spell.
Without the resistance of the basilisk itself, Maka's shrinking spell was cast fairly smoothly. Although the shrinking process was a bit slow due to the basilisk's resistance to magic, he at least succeeded in turning the opponent into a state only as long as an adult's arm.
"Come up!"
After covering the basilisk's eyes with magic, he stretched his hand forward and let the shrunken basilisk wrap itself around his forearm.
"Okay, then..."
Maka suddenly glanced at the giant ice crystal bird behind the windbreaker wizard, and immediately said:
"Let's go back too!"
As soon as he finished speaking, he was seen taking out the door key and disappearing from the place together with the windbreaker wizard who used the Apparition Spell. Immediately afterwards, two figures appeared again at their usual place in front of the Hogwarts school gate.
Not long after, Maka returned to the school gate and immediately saw Charles squatting in a daze on one side of the door - had he been waiting here since Maka and the windbreaker wizard went to London to find the basilisk
"Charles?"
Maka spoke and called him softly.
