It has to be said that even though she is one of the "Thirteen People" in the Walpurgis Royal Academy of Skills, Xia Lu is still a student after all.
Perhaps, in terms of strength and technology, Xia Lu is not inferior even to the puppet masters in the army, but in the face of actual combat, there are still some shortcomings.
Therefore, when the black shadow swooped out from the woods, Xia Lu's mind was almost blank and she was unable to react in time.
Sigmund reacted in advance, but because the puppet user did not provide magic power, he was unable to respond at all.
And this scene, Luo Zhen, who was in mid-air and flying over at the fastest speed, also saw it.
At that moment, Luo Zhen's eyes narrowed slightly.
Within his body, the magic power was turning into a curse.
"Namo Hachiman Great Bodhisattva"
Luo Zhen, carrying endless fire powder, flew over at high speed while singing such a mantra in a low voice.
"Snapped!"
A crisp sound rang out as Luo Zhen clapped his hands together, and the spell power instantly burst out from his overlapping hands.
This burst of magical power was like a supersonic wave. While passing through the space, it hit the black shadow approaching Xia Lu head-on like an invisible cannonball.
"Boom!"
Amidst the heart-stopping sound of gas explosions, the black shadow seemed to be hit by an invisible impact and turned into a ball, tearing the air while being blown away in front of Xia Lu.
If there were professional Onmyoji here, they would be surprised to see the spells performed by Luo Zhen, right
Because that's not a spell.
If we talk about classification, then it should indeed fall into the category of Type A spells.
However, unlike the spells that are performed using spells, this is just a way to release the power of the spell and spiritual power to form an impact. Although the principle is simple, it is the original technique before the emergence of the technique called spells. Conjuration.
And precisely because it is primitive, its power is completely determined by the amount of curse and spiritual power released by the user.
Taking Luo Zhen as an example, if only a small part of the curse power is released, its power will at most be to knock people away or knock them unconscious. However, if one releases his own curse power in one breath, even if it can knock out a person, The entire forest was blown away, and even the mountain peaks were cut off, right
Now, Luo Zhen used this method to turn the power of the spell into a pure impact, knocking the black shadow away.
Of course, Xia Lu, who was extremely close, could not avoid being affected by the explosion so close at hand.
"ah!"
Xia Lu screamed, her whole body was blown up and she fell to the ground.
"it hurts... !"
The moment she fell to the ground, Xia Lu let out a cry of pain.
But no one could care about Xia Lu at this time.
"who... !?"
Sigmund flew in front of Xia Lu, staring at the blown-up black figure with sharp eyes, and asked in a deep voice.
Unfortunately, the other party didn't even reply. Instead, he used the aftermath of the impact to fly a certain distance, turned over, swept into the shadows, and disappeared.
Luo Zhen then fell from the air wearing a dark coat.
"It's you?"
Sigmund stood up startled.
"you... !"
Xia Lu was also surprised and wanted to speak out, but for some reason her pretty face turned pale, with a hint of pain.
"Luo Zhen!"
At this time, Ye Ye also jumped out of the woods and jumped down from the top of the tree.
"Catch up, Ye Ye."
Luo Zhen gave such instructions to Ye Ye.
"yes!"
Yeye immediately stepped on the ground, jumped high into the air, and flew into the air like a rocket. Then, with the sound of howling wind, he headed towards the direction where the black shadow disappeared.
Silence returned to the scene.
Luo Zhen turned around, looked at Xia Lu and Sigmund who were sitting in front of him, raised his brows, and said something like this.
"Why are you here?"
Luo Zhen asked such a question.
In this regard, before Sigmund had time to say anything, Xia Lu had already spoken.
"I should be the one who said this!" Xia Lu said angrily: "Why did you suddenly jump out and scare people!?"
Xia Lu complained loudly.
"Who scared you?" Luo Zhen half-squinted his eyes and said, "I have warned you to be careful and even saved you, but why did it end up scaring you?"
Speaking of this, Luo Zhen was completely unhappy.
"Who... who wants you to save me!" Xia Lu said angrily, "Even if you don't jump out suddenly, I can handle it myself!"
This is just showing off.
"Really?" Luo Zhen suddenly said playfully: "Then why did I just see someone completely stunned? Huh?"
Luo Zhen said this in a joking manner.
"you you... !"
Xia Lu herself seemed to know that her performance was embarrassing, and she was so angry that her whole body trembled.
"Calm down, Xia Lu." Sigmund then flew to Xia Lu's side, landed on the ground, and said, "First, let's figure out the situation."
With these words, Sigmund turned to Luo Zhen.
"Thank you so much for your help, Lorelei Agnieshen."
Sigmund bowed his head to Luo Zhen and thanked him.
That way, he looked like a calm and collected elder, which was very awe-inspiring.
"No need." Luo Zhen also turned his eyes to Sigmund and said with a smile: "It seems that the doll is much more qualified than its owner."
Hearing this, Xia Lu raised her eyebrows. Just when she was about to get angry, Sigmund spoke up at the right time, as if it was a good time.
"Did that Xiao Xiao try to attack you just now?"
Sigmund asked.
Attacks like this are not uncommon at the Walpurgis Royal Academy of Artificial Intelligence.
Just like Magnus, because he is the number one and closest to the Demon King's throne, there are countless people who want to deal with him by any means, so the people in the team must protect him at every step.
Although Luo Zhen's current ranking has not been rearranged, who would doubt his strength now
Therefore, there must be many people who regard him as an enemy that hinders them from ascending to the throne of the Demon King and want to deal with him secretly.
In view of this, Sigmund said this.
but...
"I'm not sure yet who the other party is and what his purpose is." Luo Zhen shook his head and said, "But will the academy allow such a sneak attack from behind the scenes?"
"Of course not." Sigmund replied directly: "If it is an attack without malicious intent, both the disciplinary committee and the guards will clamp down on it. It should be here soon."
As soon as these words came out...
"That... that's not okay!" Xia Lu was still sitting on the ground, her expression suddenly stiffened, and she became panicked, and said quickly: "You have to leave quickly before the disciplinary committee comes!"
With that said, Xia Lu wanted to get up.
"ah!"
However, the next second, Xia Lu cried out in pain again and sat back with a look of pain on her face.
This finally made Luo Zhen and Sigmund notice.
The ankle of one of Xia Lu's feet was abnormally swollen and red.
Apparently, Xia Lu accidentally sprained herself when she fell.
Seeing Xia Lu sitting on the ground, holding her ankle and crying in pain, Luo Zhen couldn't help but laugh.
"It seems that even the rumored Tyrannosaurus is just an ordinary girl."
That's it.
