How... could it be half-animal
Achie was a little surprised. It should be impossible for these fringe figures from Azure Castle to be put into St. Blainey Palace.
Did she sneak in on her own
impossible. He immediately rejected the idea. The half-beast's talent was extremely low. Even if his physique was stronger than that of an average person, his upper limit was far lower than that of a normal demon possessor. Those legendary thieves who came and went without a trace throughout history had to start as a human being. It is undoubtedly impossible to avoid the detection of the stationed mage at the level of a half-beast.
"Master Carmen, this person..."
"Be careful, she is an illusionist. You'd better not get too close." Although the old mage's voice was calm and confident, the content of his words still surprised Achie.
The half-beast... has mastered the ability to use magic
Is this also the work of the Sun God Church
Being able to confront a high-level mage has already proven the opponent's strength. The reason why Master Carmen is not taking action now is simply because he wants to wait until the magic lock is drained from his body. By then, no matter how incredible the origin of this half-beast is, he will have no choice but to be slaughtered by others.
Achie looked at her coldly - in the dim moonlight, most of her figure was shrouded in the shadow of the house, and her face seemed to be covered with a veil. Apart from the striking long ears on the top of her head, her most distinctive feature should be Those pale golden eyes.
It was really a beautiful color, like a gem inlaid with gold sand... He couldn't help but think to himself that if such eyes were dug out and soaked in embalming fluid, they would definitely become a good collection.
Of course, for such a rare half-beast, it might not be bad to make a whole specimen.
"Master Carmen, let my men go up and try." Achie said in a ferocious tone, "Since she has offended me, it is my duty to deal with this matter. Even if I can't deal with her, I can use up more of her magic power. It will be easier for you to catch."
The old mage nodded slightly and agreed.
Just when Achie was about to give the order, he suddenly heard a strange sound.
The sound wasn't loud, and if the room wasn't quiet enough, he might not be able to hear it. If I had to describe it, it would be like the rustle of the wind blowing through the sedge, except that the former is much denser and more compact, not quite like the sounds that exist in nature.
"Hey... get down..."
Is anyone talking here
The moment Achie noticed the sound, the half-beast was already bending down and lying on the ground.
Before he could realize what was going on, a loud bang suddenly exploded outside the house, and the violent bombardment made the entire main building tremble!
Blue waves rippled on the wall, flickering on and off like candles swaying in the wind. But this vision only lasted for a short while, and then the waves dissipated and were no longer seen.
The expression of the old mage changed drastically!
"What was the sound just now-" Before Achie could finish asking, he saw Master Carmen reciting a spell quickly and taking out a silver spell scroll.
In an instant, a transparent barrier stretched out from the floor of the hall, blocking everyone behind them.
"Everyone get out! Get out of here!" the mage shouted.
His words were cut off by another explosion.
This explosion occurred directly inside the house, and the violent airflow instantly broke through all the doors and windows. The barrier was shattered like glass, and a ball of fiery red flames spread out, knocking everyone at the door to the ground almost in the blink of an eye.
Achie was also knocked over by the airflow, and the familiar taste of rust overflowed from his mouth. He only felt his ears ringing, and everything in his field of vision was swaying from side to side. The old mage was lying on his back in the middle of the hall, his life and death unknown. The door passage behind him seemed to have been gnawed by dozens of rabid dogs. Even the walls became pitted. The guards who had blocked the door before were even more damaged. The armor was full of holes, and it was unclear whether it was steel or cardboard.
He also saw a large eye-catching hole appear on the wall of the room, and there was an additional area illuminated by the silver moonlight.
Achie finally realized why Master Carmen was so frightened.
The blue wave of light just now was not a strange phenomenon, but the reaction of Villa Misuo when he was attacked! Its disappearance just means that the fascination lock has failed, which is why the old mage personally established a force field barrier.
However, the result was unsatisfactory. The barrier was far inferior to the Mystic Lock in terms of resistance. Therefore, the second attack not only directly shattered the barrier, but also affected the personnel waiting at the rear.
If he hadn't already walked into the room and happened to be standing two or three feet away from the mage, the moment just now would have been disastrous.
Cold sweat broke out on Achie's back instantly. Although his senses were still unable to return to normal due to the impact of the explosion, it was very clear in his head - the thieves' accomplices were brazenly attacking the Saint-Blaigny Palace, and the methods they used were certain A long-range strike weapon!
Wait, these people didn't drag the large-caliber naval gun near the villa, did they
In his impression, only the artillery on warships could have such an astonishing momentum.
Suddenly, Achie saw the half-beast staggering up, as if trying to jump out of the hole in the outer wall.
If she escapes, it will be difficult to catch her again!
He slowly stretched out his hand and pointed the emerald ring on his index finger at the thief.
This is a magic ring worth thousands of gold, which contains a dissociation technique. Even if he is a non-demon, as long as he spends enough money, he can control powerful magic power!
Azieu aimed for the opponent's legs.
If possible, he hoped to catch a survivor alive and learn from her who was behind it.
He pressed the snap on the back of the ring—
The gem instantly shattered, and a ray of emerald green light shot directly at the half-beast woman with her back to the room.
But a giant black wing suddenly swept in, wrapping the woman in it and blocking the dissociation ray at the same time!
It cannot be said that the dissociation technique did not take effect. It burned a large hole half an arm's width into the wing, but compared to the entire outline of the black wing, this wound was far from fatal.
Achie's eyes widened in disbelief. He never expected that the dragonborn, a noble, would actually be involved with the half-beast, and even took the initiative to protect the half-beast from harm.
The resistance of adult dragons to magic power far exceeds that of other races, and Achie knew that he could no longer keep the other party alone.
The black dragon let out a low roar, grabbed the half-beast and flew into the air, turning around and flying towards the deep night.
The guards in the villa also responded immediately.
Soon, two more dragonborns changed their bodies, flapped their wings and lifted into the sky from the courtyard, hoping to intercept the uninvited guests who were fleeing the villa.
But what greeted them was a series of "sharp arrows" wrapped in electric light!
