"The Peak Snow Spider Swarm?"
Still on the roof of the tall building from the beginning, Haierbo looked at a large group of spiders densely packed in the street below, and they seemed to run to the other end in an endless stream.
Even though many of those spiders were actually taller than people, looking down from his height, the largest ones were actually only about the size of a fist.
But even if they are far away, even if the night environment is very dim, Haierbo can still see every detail on them very clearly.
"No," after he observed it carefully, he suddenly shook his head, "The Peak Snow Spider doesn't have dark green scales. Is it a new species that has evolved in recent times? Or..."
Passing by down there was, of course, Maka's alienated Acromantula.
Since their natural enemies are basilisks, they naturally have a long history of species reproduction, which can even be traced back to the era before Helbo was born.
At that time, because their ancestors often appeared in the snow on the peaks of mountains, the wizards at that time directly used the ancient Greek word "peak" as their title.
Just because of some unknown reasons, most of them began to migrate several times on a large scale. As the years accumulated, they gradually became the current Acromantula family.
It is worth mentioning that Haierbo and the Acromantula's ancestors had an unbearable past, which was one of the reasons that led him to later cultivate the world's first basilisk.
At this time, Haierbo's expression was finally no longer as calm as at the beginning, but he narrowed his eyes slightly.
These giant spiders that suddenly appeared in the city obviously couldn't be wild. And if that's the case, it must have been domesticated by someone!
"… spider."
He muttered the word lightly, and then he couldn't help but have some more likely associations, such as -
"Is it the 'boss'?"
Since Haierbo has always been concerned about the demon summoning technique in the magic book "Abatail", and Miriam and Asaph are full of traces of blood transformation, he subconsciously remembered that The "boss" in their memories.
Judging from what is known so far, what he wants must be in the hands of the boss who always remains mysterious.
On the contrary, it is Maka, the real owner of those alienated Acromantulas. Because he has never found anything related to bloodline transformation in the opponent, it is naturally difficult to put the opponent into priority.
However, no matter who the owner of these spiders is, it is actually irrelevant to Haierbo for the time being.
Haierbo suddenly stretched out his right hand and pointed it quickly in the air in front of him. Suddenly, as an inconspicuous spatial fluctuation passed by his fingertips, a translucent rune outline appeared there.
At the next moment, Haierbo was facing the looming rune and said:
"Everyone come back!"
If these are just the "peak snow spiders" he is familiar with, then he certainly cannot care too much, because all he wants is chaos in Haifa City.
But when he discovered that some of his subordinates were beginning to slowly and uncontrollably become petrified in the streets below, he had to make a temporary decision to have the transformed teachers and students of Shibohe retreat.
After all, even if it means risking one's life, as long as it can produce results, it is good. But when they are forced to lose their combat effectiveness without being able to play any role, it is a completely wasteful sacrifice.
As a wizard who pursues his own interests, Haierbo is absolutely unwilling to engage in such a loss-making business.
"The direction these spiders are coming from... is that over there?"
After giving the order, he waved away the rule runes with his backhand, then raised his head and headed in the direction from which the giant spider swarm came.
From his point of view, the square where Maka and Ajinbad were located was completely blocked by another shopping mall, and nothing could be seen at all.
But based on the direction of the tide of spiders surging in the streets and alleys in the distance, it can be judged that the nearby area is definitely the final source of this giant spider ocean.
Haierbo thought about it for a moment, and still thought that the owner of the spider group was the most likely "boss". With the intention of taking a look, he still moved.
Then, in the blink of an eye, the figure that had always been standing still at the top of the tall building suddenly disappeared.
…
The square was deserted.
Of course, there were still spiders, although they were much less than at the beginning, but you could still see black spots the size of rice grains crawling out of the leather pocket.
It's just that Maka and Ajinbad, who were still here just now, are now missing.
As for Haierbo, he did not move directly to this square, but chose the rooftop of a nearby shopping mall. Just standing here, you can have a clear view of most of the area around this square.
His current condition is not the best. Even though he almost looks down on the magical abilities of modern wizards, he will never be careless when he should be careful.
"Um?"
Haierbo was secretly disappointed when he saw that there were no living creatures except spiders in the square. But soon, his eyes froze and fell directly on a bench by the square.
"Is it the human soul... invisible?"
After vaguely discovering someone on the bench, Haierbo, who was originally a little disappointed that he could not see the "boss", suddenly took a small step back and covered most of his body with the building.
This is because, except for the traces of the soul that he could only slightly detect with the help of the rules, he was not able to see through the opponent's invisibility magic at a glance.
However, the moment Haierbo took a step back, he felt a figure suddenly appear in his field of vision.
"Mr. Haierbo, why don't you come down and have a chat?"
Just as Haierbo became more and more alert, the person sitting on the bench below suddenly turned around and looked at where he was from a distance.
"Maka McClain..."
That was of course Maka. From the moment he released these little guys, he was ready to attract Haierbo. But for him, this possibility is only 50-50 at best.
And just now, because Haierbo was aware of his existence through his soul, the Immortal Hidden Potion he had taken in advance immediately lost its effectiveness.
To be honest, this seems to be the first time that the Immortal Hidden Potion invented by Maka has been cracked on the spot...
On the other side, Haierbo on the roof narrowed his eyes again, and his vision became a little deeper.
As far as a pure head-to-head confrontation was concerned, Haierbo knew that there was nothing he could do against this young man at the moment. Correspondingly, although Maka could probably manage to kill Haierbo, all he could destroy was a body that belonged to someone else.
Oh, right! The original owner of that body seems to be the old dean of Xibohe Magic Academy
"Young man... there seems to be nothing to talk about between you and me right now, right?" Haierbo paused and then said loudly, "If this is all over, I think I will hope to have a good relationship with you. A magical exchange—but that's certainly not now."
When Maka heard what he said, she smiled kindly.
"I think so," he said leisurely, still sitting on the bench with his legs crossed, "Then you go-"
Seeing Maka say the words "Let's go" so lightly, Haierbo couldn't help but give him a faint look.
Who would believe this
As expected, Maka then spread her hands and said calmly: "...Yes, that's what I originally planned - just before I heard that there was such a big chaos in Haifa City."
As he spoke, he pointed to the sky in the distance and poked his fingers twice at the helicopter that was still hovering there.
"But who knew that there is such a big scene here now. If it is not handled properly, this era will change drastically!"
"snort."
Haierbo glanced at Maka talking there from a distance, but he just snorted indifferently, as if to say that all this had nothing to do with him.
As for Maka, of course, there is no need to break the barrier, because even if Haierbo already knew that it was Sirius's fault, he would just pretend that he didn't know.
Because this basin full of dirty water is destined to be poured on Haierbo.
Seeing that the other party didn't care, Maka finally said:
"Therefore, before the city is restored to its original state, I will definitely not be able to give you a chance to continue to stir things up. If possible, I hope you can come down... Mr. Haierbo, what do you think?"
To put it bluntly, he just said: Mr. Haierbo, can you come down and let me give you a good pleasure
For Haierbo, this is essentially not much loss. After losing this body, the consequence is that he cannot take another body in a short period of time.
However, this "lizi" is passable, but in terms of his face, he must not be able to live up to it, right? Therefore, it was obviously impossible for Haierbo to cooperate with Maka's "excessive demands".
"If I want to leave, do you think you can stop me? Young man... I am very optimistic about your talent and hard work, but if you are really so 'confident', it will not do you any good."
After all, he is an old monster who has lived for such a long time. Even if his current strength is a little weak, he is always quite calm. Facing Maka's subtle provocation, Haierbo remained calm and looked down at Maka's place with an indifferent expression.
In this regard, Maka said nothing this time... It would be better to say that he had nothing to say this time, right
Suddenly, he saw a staff in his hand, and he waved it like lightning towards the top of the building where Haierbo was.
Immediately, a beam of ice-blue light cut through the night, leaving a slender and slanting trail over the city of Haifa.
