Murphy staggered to his feet, covered in blood.
The solemn nun's clothes on her body had become tattered, and vaguely outlined the curves of her body.
She stood blankly in the middle of the ruins, looking at the collapsed buildings and flying dust around her, as well as the huge hollow in the center.
In the middle of the pothole, where the altar was originally located, there appeared a black coffin buried in the ground, covered with pale skeletons, as if they were scrambling to reach out to the red gemstone inlaid in the middle of the coffin with a longing hand.
The "Coffin of Eternal Sleep" inlaid with the Stone of the Sage.
It is the iconic spell-casting tool of the destruction-level dark wizard - "Prayer" Murphy.
For wizards, ordinary spell-casting props are just props, which can only play a supporting and simplifying role.
In the end, what determines the power of the spell is the amount of ether that can be mobilized and its own fighting skills.
For example, when casting fire spells, low-level wizards often use sulfur and saltpeter as spellcasting props, while high-level wizards only need to sing incantations.
Therefore, most people's impression of black wizards is that they wear large and mysterious black robes, and they can pull out some strange things from various places on the body to cast spells at any time.
It's like the kindling used when making a fire. It can simplify the steps and increase the power, but it doesn't, it's just a little bit more laborious, and it doesn't have much impact.
But if it is a powerful spell-casting item with extraordinary power, it can play a role far beyond just being an assistant.
The coffin of eternal sleep is a powerful spellcasting item with the ability to "resurrection", and it is also an extremely dangerous taboo item.
Murphy used the coffin of Eternal Sleep to resurrect Wilde's disciple Charles and turned him into his puppet, thereby approaching Wilde's attempted assassination.
This plan is not an impromptu one.
As early as when another of Wilde's disciples, Yoai, was still alive, he was included in the steps of their entire plan.
According to Youai, his teacher's preference for Charles was that of a father's treatment of his son, rather than a teacher's treatment of his disciple.
Youai, who was also a disciple and had a better talent, eventually murdered Charles out of jealousy and greed, and then defected.
Although Wilde is a destructive dark wizard, he was once defeated by Joseph and has such a fatal weakness.
It is the best nourishment for the magic mirror egg.
As a dark wizard of the same level, Murphy also had contact with Wilde.
According to her judgment, this Wilde, who was defeated in the battle two years ago, is still hiding his head and dare not come out.
Even if you think about it with your toes, your strength is definitely not as good as before.
But I didn't expect that even with such an idea, an assassination that carefully selected the opponent's weaknesses and actually failed? !
Everything even went smoothly.
until just now...
Wilde only went out for half an hour, and when he came back, he did not hesitate to kill Charles, who he regarded as his son.
What happened in between
Why did he suddenly discover the truth and have such a great determination? !
Judging from his previous performance, even if he discovers it, it is impossible to just start without any hesitation!
"Damn, what the hell did he do out there?"
Murphy took a deep breath and waved vigorously, and the chaotic invisible ether was rearranged.
"Shh!"
The rain curtain falling from the sky was blocked outside, forming a waterfall-like spectacle.
The collapsed secret room was rebuilt, and the broken and sunken ground returned to its original appearance.
And the dark wizard who was affected to death just now spread blood all over his body, was resurrected by the coffin of eternal sleep, staggered and stood up and turned into a new puppet.
The dark wizards next to them were used to it and continued to help clean up.
A dark wizard stepped forward from the crowd and knelt on the ground, saying, "Lord Murphy."
"cough cough..."
Murphy coughed twice, wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, and said coldly, "What's the matter?"
She felt the severe pain coming from her whole body, and the small part of her soul that was lost, and she felt more and more angry.
Any spell involving the soul has a very high risk factor, even a destruction-level dark wizard is no exception.
What's more, the one who destroyed this spell and made a counterattack was also a destruction-level dark wizard.
Although the opponent did not cause any real damage, it was only a tentative stage, but this alone made Murphy feel disgraced.
This represented a defeat in a confrontation.
But Murphy still believes that this is not a gap in strength, but just a reversal of the poor information, leading to an exchange of light and dark status.
Originally, she was in the dark, Wilde was in the light, and the opponent's weakness was firmly grasped, and it was her who was unexpected.
But Wilde's sudden reversal made the positions of both sides reverse directly.
The unexpected became Wilde, and the victim, naturally, became Murphy.
The half-kneeling black wizard said respectfully, "Heris, the leader of the white wolf, came to visit and said he wanted to see you."
"Harris?"
Murphy sneered and stretched out his hand, the blood on his body and the surroundings gathered into a floating smooth ball of blood, which she received into the robe: "What is he here for?"
Just as she was about to say no, the subordinate said again, "He said he knew the reason for your failure."
Murphy's sneer froze at the corner of his mouth.
"… let him come over."
"Yes."
…
Harris saluted Murphy who was standing in front of him and said, "Lord Murphy, it's a great honor to meet you for the first time... I visited you many times before, but I didn't get what I wanted. Today I can finally fulfill my wish."
Murphy has put on her new nun clothes.
Before she became a dark wizard, she was a prayer nun of the Plague Church, responsible for blessing and praying for the dead, and then she became a dark wizard after she obtained the coffin of eternal sleep and the inheritance of the previous owner.
The base that was attacked by Ji Zhixu that time, the abandoned Plague Church, was the meeting place she provided.
Her character is very arrogant, and she is also very disdainful of the hunters who cooperated this time.
Harris visited many times, but was refused even to meet, and never showed up.
Murphy's eyes were full of exploration and threats, and he said directly: "What makes you confident to know the reason for my failure, and... rush over from the hunter's territory before it happened."
"If you can't convince me, then I have reason to suspect that you are involved in this matter."
The pressure of the destruction level made Harris sweat cold and his face was a little stiff, but he still smiled and said: "With all due respect, the reason for this failure... it is you."
"Me?" Murphy narrowed his eyes.
Harris said: "Do you still remember... Youai's death report?"
Murphy gave a pause and said, "Of course I remember that the corrupted flesh is the remains of some kind of dream parasite. From my judgment, although it can kill the panic level, its vitality is very short-lived and does not pose a threat. "
"That's why you gave the order to give up investigating the bookstore and make every effort to ensure that the eggs of the magic mirror hatch."
Harris raised his head, his eyes flashed coldly, and said meaningfully: "But you know, just half an hour ago, Wilde just went to the bookstore."
"It was the owner of the bookstore who caused Wilde's sudden change. Your plan failed."
