226 Chapter 26, Huge Insects
While the Scharnhorst battleship was searching for the missing nun at sea, thousands of miles away in England, somewhere in a dark crypt.
Three male wizards knelt on the ground back to back. They raised their hands and were twisted into strange postures. Under their knees were circles of sacrificial circles. The circles shone with green light, constantly changing from three Life energy is drawn from the nostrils of each victim. The life energy fluttered in mid-air, continuously absorbed by a group of vortex image fragments.
A flickering figure sat on a chair, staring at a transparent swirling image fragment in front of him without blinking.
In the fragmented image is an industrial hall filled with steam and gears. In the hall, countless clocks and hourglasses can be seen everywhere. In the center of the hall, a huge golden planetarium is displayed. The planetarium rotates slowly. Every time it rotates, a white electric light will flash in the hall.
Numerous wizards in standard robes stood beneath the giant rotating planetarium, waving wands. With each wave of the wand, a clock or gear shifts its position. They seem to be holding some kind of sacred religious ceremony, or they are conducting some unknowable magic experiment.
"Grand plan...huh." Behind the fragmented image, the flickering figure muttered.
Footsteps sounded.
Another tall figure appeared next to the black shadow: "Leviathan is ready, no accident, you will never see him again."
"Not surprisingly?"
Hei Ying sneered: "No, there must be accidents."
"I have seen the strength of that monster, no one can escape." The woman whispered.
"Do you want me to be careless? Sister." Soi Ying said in a cold tone.
"No, you misunderstood. I just think that you haven't closed your eyes for so many days. Maybe you need to take a rest."
"A real wizard never rests. I believe Bach will find a loophole and execute a backup plan."
After a moment of silence, the woman asked in a low voice, "But what if he really can't come out?"
"That means that he is nothing more than that, and he is not worthy of being my opponent."
"Chloe!?"
Hoffa slowly stood up from the boat, uneasily calling his companion's name, but the companion did not respond.
A thick layer of fog is shrouded in front of the eyes, the fog distorts the sun, and it is like a wall across the woods and beaches of the deserted island. The visibility is only five or six meters, but the only thing that can be seen clearly is that the feet are not pure sea water. It's a white sandy beach.
There are some round boulders on the beach, and some seaweed that has been rotted by the sun hangs on the boulders. Countless seabirds are flying and circling in the sky, chirping and chirping, not afraid of people at all.
In a coma, the lifeboat was rushed to an unknown island.
The wound Dominique left him is still throbbing. He didn't care about the pain in his body, he climbed up the huge slippery boulders with some difficulty, and stepped on the sea water to the beach step by step. The sandy land here is barren of grass, the road is rough, and there are some potholes from time to time, making it very difficult to walk.
He stopped and walked on the beach, sometimes yelling a few times, and sometimes carefully distinguishing whether there were any abnormal sounds on the sea other than the screams of seagulls and herons. In his opinion, if Chloe had already landed, he should let himself know the location.
So he listened carefully, but there was no sound except for the sound of the sea lapping on the shore, and occasionally the screams of seagulls.
At this time, he saw a row of footprints on the beach.
He thought it was left by Chloe, but upon closer inspection, the footprints were large, left by an adult man, and there were traces of dragging behind them. He became cautious and followed the footprints without saying a word.
Not far away, he saw two other strange guys, they were wearing black wet wizard robes, one of them was sturdy, standing on the high tide beach, covered in sand, like a tracker.
The other skinny one was dragged up from the sea by him, and he leaned limply in the arms of his companion, coughing non-stop.
Coughing, the dragging wizard saw Hoffa standing not far away, let go of his companion abruptly, pulled out his wand from his waist, and pointed at him tremblingly.
The dragged wizard fell back into the sea with a plop, choked several mouthfuls of sea water, then stumbled up from the sand, and drew out his wand.
It was those German black wizards who were rushed to this small island with him.
After Hoffa flashed to the reef, he leaned against the reef tightly. The magic glove was taken away by Chloe, and the wound on his body has not healed. This is not a good time to fight.
"come out."
The condition of the two black robes on the beach was not very good either. They raised their wands horizontally, swayed and vomited sea water, and roared in German.
He poked his head out from behind the reef and glanced at them.
The two dark wizards watched him emerge, and swung their wands wide open and closed.
"Smash everything!"
"Critical Carpal Bone!"
Hoffa quickly retracted his head and leaned against the reef.
However, he waited for a long time, but he did not hear the sound of the curse hitting the rock. I didn't even notice any magic shocks, and some only had the sound of monotonous waves hitting the reef.
So he poked his head out again, and the two dark wizards were checking their wands in the sunlight with puzzled faces. Like a Muggle examining a waterlogged gun.
Seeing him sticking his head out again, the two German wizards checking the wands kept shaking their wands nervously: "Disarm, Avada Kedavra, fainted."
Countless spells came out of their mouths without money.
Hoffa pulled his head back again.
I tensed my heart and waited for a while, but still no magic spell appeared, and the waves crashed against the rocks, making a clattering sound. It seemed that only the three of them were left in the whole world.
Something is wrong.
For some reason, the two wizards over there did not release any magic. He didn't know what was going on, but the enemy had a problem, and Hoffa, as the opponent, would naturally not be merciful. He immediately jumped out from behind the rock, holding his claws forward with five fingers.
Seeing his move, the two black robes thought he was going to release the Transformation Curse, and immediately fell back to the ground, rolled back in embarrassment, and hid behind a rock.
But after they hid well, they stretched out their heads to see that the ground was not deformed, and nothing happened.
The sea breeze blew over the boy on the reef. He raised his right arm and held the wrist of his right arm with his left hand. He looked like a Muggle with a second-degree illness.
The two black robes behind the reef also held their magic wands, their vigilant eyes turned straight, and the two sides fell into a silent confrontation. The scene was weird like a comedy in the era of silent movies.
About three seconds passed.
A trace of cold sweat trickled down Hoffa's head.
Something was wrong, his magic couldn't be used, not so much that he couldn't use it, it's better to say that he felt his body was hollowed out. This is completely different from the experience after drinking the anti-magic potion. The anti-magic potion blocks the use of his own magic power, and it is like magic power flowing from nature into the body, and then from the body into nature. His body is like a leaking balloon. Can't store magic power at all.
Is it because Chloe took away her magic gloves?
He thought of this, and although it was completely different from the lack of magic power, he couldn't find any other explanation.
"Aldo, that kid is dead, let's act first!"
"good!"
The two dark wizards in the distance saw the fact that the boy could not use magic either. They looked at each other, put away their wands, picked up a piece of wood washed up on the beach by the sea from the ground, and rushed towards Hoffa danglingly. past.
Seeing two adult wizards rushing over like this, holding a big stick as thick as his own thigh in their hands, Hoffa immediately jumped off the rock and ran to the distance without looking back.
"Damn god stick, don't let me find you!!"
While running, he cursed Chloe viciously, and cast the Disillusionment Curse, Shield Curse, or other Transformation Curse by the way.
None of them can be cast.
"stop!"
"Little thing! Hand over Flamel!"
One of the chasing wizards fell down, and the other picked him up from the sand and continued his pursuit.
Hoffa clutched the wound in his lower abdomen, and ran limping on the beach in embarrassment, his eyes rolling straight. I need a weapon, I need a weapon.Damn it!
As if he heard his prayer, there was a metallic reflection on the beach in the distance, and he took a closer look.
Dominic's super-large cross sword did not sink to the bottom of the sea, but was also washed up on the beach, half buried in the sand.
He was overjoyed, stepped on the waves and rushed into the shallows, grabbed the hilt of the cross sword, and pulled the giant sword out of the sand bit by bit.
Fortunately, he has never slackened in his physical training, and this extremely heavy weapon did not crush him at critical moments.
With a weapon in his hand, he immediately gained confidence. He stopped running away and looked back with a smirk.
The two black robes saw him kneeling on the beach with his buttocks pouted, thinking that he was desperate and began to pray. After approaching, he raised his big stick and smashed it down.
The distance between the two sides was no more than three meters, and Huo, who was kneeling on the ground, rounded the cross sword. With a flash of the sword arc, the rotten wood was cut in half by the iron edge, and several shipworms hung down from the broken part.
At this time, the two black witches issued the extra weapon in Hoffa's hand.
"Anker..."
"Walk!!"
They were also bachelors, and when they saw the powerful weapons in front of them, they immediately threw the wooden sticks and rushed towards the distant woods without looking back.
"Want to run!"
Hoffa, who had the upper hand, was unwilling to let the tiger go back to the mountain, and chased after him dragging his epee.
The Cross Sword weighed nearly 30 kilograms, and his body was still injured, so he ran very slowly. Fortunately, those two had just crawled out of the sea, and they were in extremely poor condition, their footsteps twisted left and right, and their speed couldn't get up fast.
The three rushed into the woods at the speed of a turtle two in front and one behind.
The plants in the forest are lush and luxuriant, covering the sky and the sun. Most of them are some strange and ancient ferns whose names can't be pronounced. There are some palm-sized flying insects flying in the air, and the scene is like an alien.
Hoffa, who was red-eyed, didn't notice the strange scenery around him. He gritted his teeth, with an expression of wanting to kill the two people opposite him.
Passing through the dense and strange forest, they came to a dry sandy river bed, rushed down the narrow river bank, and suddenly opened up in front of them, and the ground turned into yellow sand that could not be seen at a glance.
While running away, the two black robes picked up sand from the ground and threw it backwards.
The smoke and dust billowed, Hoffa's vision was blocked, his secret path was not good, and the terrain was so open, if the two chose to run separately, which one should he chase after?
Just when he was worried that the other side would split up and run away.
In the smoke and dust ahead, the two black robes went back and forth, and rushed towards Hoffa.
This reckless gesture stunned him for a moment, he thought that the other side had a sudden plan to kill him, so he swung the cross sword in a circle.
But immediately, he understood the reason why these two people left and returned.
In the billowing smoke and dust, behind the two black-robed wizards, several huge worms hovered and rushed out. Their body length was several meters, and they were very frightening.
Rumble!
Not only that, countless potholes suddenly opened on the dry river bank, and huge sand worms and many-legged creatures crawled out of the potholes. They wriggled and entangled with each other, their multi-layered mouthparts were densely covered with sharp teeth, and they secreted disgusting acid saliva.
"I rely on it!"
He cursed loudly, ignored the two German wizards, turned around and ran into the distant forest.
Soon, two black robes passed by Hoffa, leaving him behind. Hoffa gritted his teeth and looked at the oversized cross sword in his hand, and reluctantly threw it on the ground.
After losing more than 30 kilograms of weight, his footsteps also became brisk, so he caught up with the two black wizards in front again.
Two dark wizards, one with red hair and one with golden hair.
The red-haired guy saw that the boy was about to overtake them soon after throwing away his weapon, so he suddenly slanted his leg and tried to trip him.
Don't forget to trip yourself up while running away! !
Hoffa jumped up and kicked the red-haired wizard in the waist, knocking him to the ground. Without looking back, he got into the forest.
"Anker!!"
The blond-haired wizard quickly helped the red-haired wizard to his feet.
The red-haired wizard clutched his waist, "Go, hurry up!"
Hoffa took the lead and ran into the forest. At this moment, bugs of various sizes emerged from every corner of the damp and dark forest. The largest number of them was a giant insect the size of an adult. Among the centipedes or gnats, the hooked paws glisten in the sunlight.
Damn it, fell into the bug nest?
He wasn't afraid of bugs, but was overwhelmed by their sheer numbers. So he rushed towards the beach with all his strength, and the insects followed behind him keenly and precisely, and the number increased.
Soon, a large area of darkness was formed, so much that the original appearance of the forest could not be seen clearly.
After returning to the beach, his eyes first locked on a reef in the shallow sea. The reef stood in the rough tide and looked very safe.
Looking back at the bugs that were about to occupy the beach, Hoffa jumped into the shallow sea without hesitation and swam to the reef. The bugs chasing him stopped on the beach one after another, either waving their claws or spitting acid, but they didn't enter the water after all.
He breathed a sigh of relief.
But before he could think about what was going on on the island, there was another sound of splashing into the water in the distance.
It turned out to be the two German black wizards, who also escaped from the island full of giant worms, and swam towards the reef they were looking for in a panic.
This shocked Hoffa, and he immediately accelerated his paddling speed, and the two naturally made similar moves to him.
In the end, almost at the same second that Hoffa stood on the reef, the two dark wizards also stood on the reef.
