The moonlight is bright tonight, outlining the shadow of the boulder blacker and darker—when the light is stronger, the shadow is more intense.
Catherine looked at the shadows in front of her.
She could feel strands of dark energy overflowing from under the boulder, the feeling was extremely subtle, as if it was her hallucination.
If it weren't for her keen sense of light and darkness, an ordinary elf might not be able to sense it.
She was sure that there was something under the boulder.
Catherine squeezed the bow in her hand, pointed the arrow at the shadow, and approached carefully.
She dared not shoot an arrow.
If that Highness is really under the shadow, it may hurt him, after all, according to the information she has so far, that Highness has suffered serious injuries.
What's more, the adult's order is to capture him alive.
Catherine continued to approach cautiously, very vigilant, but when she was about to enter the shadows, she found—
She couldn't even move!
Her feet were firmly fixed on the ground, and her whole body could not move at all.
Catherine's eyes widened in horror, but soon, her good fighting qualities allowed her to quickly regain her composure.
Although her body couldn't move anymore, the natural force in her body could still be mobilized, and the force that restrained her was not so strong that she couldn't resist.
Just a few seconds...
Suddenly, her eyes widened again.
From the shadows in front of her, a small white hand suddenly protruded and gently pressed on her forehead.
The elf girl's eyes dimmed.
Although her eyes were still wide open, she seemed to have lost all her spirit, and the energy that had just been mobilized in her body also dissipated.
[Today and He Xi]: Ah, you scared me to death! Suddenly a child's hand stretched out from the shadows!
Yu Xingqiao glanced at the barrage.
He would never admit that he was indeed taken aback just now.
Because they couldn't see Zai Zai at all, their attention fell on Catherine, and they naturally took her perspective.
Moreover, an exciting BGM sounded from the player, rendering the tense atmosphere to the extreme.
So when Zai Zai suddenly stretched out his hand, it was a bit intrusive.
[Xuan Shao]: This is Zai Zai's little hands!
[A little star]: This little hand is too cute!
[Ziche]: Lovely~
[Xiao Jiu is not cute]: I like it, Zai Zai is really a person who doesn't talk too much!
[Changyue]: So what is Zai Zai doing
Yu Xingqiao also wanted to know, but it was not easy for him to ask the system, otherwise it would definitely expose the super intelligence of the system.
He could only watch nervously with the audience in the live broadcast room, and look through Zai Zai's diary later.
Jun Lu put his hand on Catherine's forehead.
The Light Clan is an aggregate of high-level abilities. Theoretically speaking, without energy, they cannot be understood and controlled. Success or failure depends only on their own level.
Jun Lu has seen with his own eyes the scene where the Great Elder split into two dolls after being hit by the light talisman. If this is a spell, one of the dolls must have been constructed by the energy of the spell.
What he is doing now is confirmation and exploration.
What complicated his mood was that the Catherine in front of him was indeed, as he had guessed, a puppet constructed from magic energy.
Then, the reason why the elf, who has always been loyal to the Guangyao royal family, has not appeared after the accident of his father and queen mother has been found.
The crisis of the Mother Tree of Life was only an indirect reason, and the main reason was the decision to call back all the elves and order the closure of the elf forest.
So the elf queen also has problems, which is already a certainty.
In an instant, Jun Lu figured this out, and at the same time, he transformed the source power into black mist and injected it into the center of "Catherine's" eyebrows.
According to Queen Funa's feedback, the copied doll will have all the memories and abilities of the original owner, but it needs to be driven by a magic circle to make the doll available to the caster.
After all, if the puppet completely possesses the memory and abilities of the original owner, what is the difference from the original owner? If you want to make the puppet work for you, the magic circle should be the key.
Perhaps in the process of turning the puppet into a real person, there are still some steps that he doesn't know, but no matter what, this puppet constructed of magic energy must have a very close connection with the original owner.
So, what if this connection is severed
What Junlu is doing is such an attempt.
And after he cut off that connection with the power of shadow, Catherine's puppet fell into a sluggish state.
The imperial capital, the basement of a certain palace.
The silver-haired man looked at a huge magic circle on the ground. He held up the scepter in his hand, and the light shone from the gemstone at the top of the scepter.
As the light on the gem became dazzling, all the sharp corners of the hexagram on the magic circle were lit up, and finally converged to the center of the magic circle, and the brightness of the light increased to the extreme.
It seems that something is about to happen. A hint of joy finally appeared in the blue-gray eyes of the man Gujing Wubo.
However, under his gaze, the light in the center of the magic circle disappeared in an instant when it was extremely bright.
"Well… "
He clutched his chest in pain, blood overflowed from the corner of his mouth, and two drops fell on the ground, reflecting extremely bright colors.
Failed again...
Why this time
He closed his eyes and felt carefully, and then a trace of sullen emotion climbed up his face.
"Jun Lu! That brat!"
He waved his hand, and a puppet kneeling on one knee appeared in his hands. It was Catherine, the princess of elves!
He squeezed the puppet tightly, and a tyrannical light burst out from his palm.
The remote wild prairie.
Jun Lu was still investigating the situation of the Catherine doll, when suddenly his heart moved, and a feeling of extreme danger crept into his heart.
That was an instinct he had cultivated after experiencing death threats many times.
With a thought in his mind, he dodged into the safe house without hesitation.
Yu Xingqiao was still watching Zai Zai's actions when he noticed that the little hand that was pressing on Catherine's forehead suddenly disappeared.
Immediately afterwards, Catherine's body suddenly burst into a burst of bright white light.
The white light covered the whole picture, a vast expanse of whiteness, those who got close would probably be blinded.
There was also a huge roar in the player.
Yu Xingqiao saw that the situation was not good, and his first reaction was to adjust the volume of the player to the minimum.
[Today and He Xi]: Damn, what happened
[July]: Why is the screen blank all of a sudden? The live broadcast is over
[Crispy Fish Skin]: The earphone party almost died on the spot...
[Pineapple Cake]: So what's going on
Yu Xingqiao also wanted to know, but the light didn't mean to dissipate at all, and the nursing lady coughed lightly, obviously reminding him that it was time to rest.
He had no choice but to say something to the audience, and then promised to upload the follow-up video to the column. After getting the understanding of most of the audience, he withdrew from the live broadcast.
He didn't play the game, but put his phone on the stand, rested, and listened to the movement on the player.
After the roar, there was a long silence.
He was so itchy when he heard it, and after ten minutes of hard work, he climbed back on the bed again, and the nurse lady came over curiously—
She didn't realize at all that this game was the Miracle Cub that she recommended, obviously she and Yu Xingqiao were not playing the same game. A huge circular pit appeared in the center of the game screen. Yu Xingqiao adjusted the camera, and after zooming in, the diameter of the pit was about 100 meters long.
The edge is right next to where the elves and monsters fight.
At this moment, the elves and the monsters had stopped fighting, and a few monsters surrounded the edge of the giant pit, carefully probing, their eyes full of fear.
And the elf girls, regardless of their injuries, all rushed down to the bottom of the pit, crazily calling Catherine's name, some burst into tears, and some dug on the ground in disbelief.
But no matter how they shouted, there was no response.
In the basement of the palace.
The silver-haired man opened his hand and looked at the doll that became fragmented after the light disappeared.
Although he knew that the little boy was not going to die, but feeling the fluctuations in the feedback, he knew that there was nothing wrong with the little boy.
He threw the fragment in his hand to the ground, raised his foot, and stomped it to pieces.
Then, his eyes fell on the magic circle in front of him again, and his blue-gray eyes narrowed slightly.
The day when this technique is successful is the day when that brat will die!
At this moment, a system box popped up on Yu Xingqiao's phone screen.
[Ding ~ Congratulations on triggering the side mission [Entertaining guests]]
[Mission description: Zai Zai invited a guest to enter the safe house. This is the first time someone has come to be a guest. Please treat him well and show the friendship of the host and guest]
[Task Content: Entertain the guests [Fairy Queen Funa]]
[Task Reward: Gold Coins +100, Another Pot +1, Number of Lucky Draws +1]
Seeing the system prompt, Yu Xingqiao was slightly taken aback, and quickly switched to the safe house interface.
In the living room of the safe house, Akabane and Laura had returned to their normal human form, standing on the carpet, looking a little dazed.
The Fairy Queen, Funa, sat on Laura's palm, looking around curiously.
The little boy who was the owner didn't pay attention to them. He turned on the TV with the remote control and was watching the scene outside.
Looking at this scene, Yu Xingqiao couldn't help feeling a little puzzled.
"System, aren't Akabane and Laura also brought into the safe house? Why is there only one guest in the mission?"
Is this a bit discriminatory
Then, I saw the system box slowly appearing on the phone screen:
[Babysitters and bodyguards are not counted as guests]
Yu Xingqiao: "..."
The author has something to say: Akabane: Am I really a bodyguard... [Guilty.jpg]
