Chapter 1044 The Veil of Concealment
Claire is taken aback by Lisa's warning.

Turning his head to look at the enchanting and sexy lady in the transparent gauze, he couldn't tell that she was acting.

Lisa guessed that she was dubious, and explained in a low voice: "Before entering the ballroom, I blessed the second-level spell 'Detect Thoughts', but the surface thoughts of creatures that enter my field of vision will be nakedly exposed in my mind, including That woman with evil intentions... Judging from her psychological activities, she is probably a demon in disguise, there are at least eight or nine other guys like this in the ballroom!"

"Uh, Lisa, can you really read people's hearts?" Claire was inexplicably nervous.

"Not all of them. If someone is particularly determined, I can't see what he is planning, such as Brother Umberto."

Lisa took a deep look at Claire, with a weird smile on her lips.

"Sister Claire, in fact, your secret love for Brother Umberto is all on your face. You don't need to use any 'detection'. Anyone with a discerning eye can see it. Why do you need to cover it up?"

"Ah?! I'm not... I don't! Don't talk nonsense!" Clareton blushed with embarrassment, and quickly changed the subject, "Lisa, is there a way to strip off the disguise of demons and distinguish them from normal people? "

Lisa groaned, thinking about it and said: "The group of demons lurking in the ballroom is probably a trap set by Saratus, plotting to murder us."

"Among the spells that the glabra is good at, including the 6th-level 'Concealment Veil', it can make many creatures change their appearance at the same time, which is equivalent to the effect of group disguise... Let me try to see if I can dispel the disguise of the demons."

Lisa held the holy emblem of the Sun God and chanted a prayer in a low voice.

Casting the 3rd ring "dispersion technique" was commonplace for her, but this time she seemed particularly cautious.

Usually, the targets for dispelling are all magic effects below level 3, which can be 100% guaranteed to succeed.

What needs to be dispelled this time is the 6-ring magic "Concealing Veil". There is a possibility of failure, and if it fails to dispel, it will alarm the demons in the crowd. If the situation gets out of control, the consequences may be very serious.

To use the "dispel" spell to dispel spells higher than the 3rd level, a spellcasting attribute test is required, and the check difficulty (DC) = 10 + the level of the target spell.

Bringing in the "veil of concealment", the difficulty of the check is 16.

Lisa's spellcasting attribute (perception) is 22, and "Owl's Wisdom" increases her perception by an additional 6 points, and her final perception correction is +9.

In addition, her class "judgment" has a divine ability-it automatically gains advantages in attack, saving throws, skill and attribute checks made against evil creatures, that is, double dice take the higher.

A simple calculation shows that if Lisa rolls 6-sided dice twice, and any one of them is greater than [-], she can pass the check.

As a result, her luck greatly exceeded the required limit, and she cast 18 points for the first time!
A green curtain of light swayed from the girl's palm, covering the people on the dance floor.

In the blink of an eye, the demon in the crowd was unmasked, revealing its ugly face.

On the dance floor, there are a total of 12 cowards disguised as human nobles, including the noble lady closest to Claire—after the magic disguise is removed, her beauty is no longer, and she has transformed into a short, bloated, ugly demon with teeth and claws rushed over.

A look of disgust appeared on Claire's face, and he swung the "Whip of Thorns", wrapped around Coward's stubby neck, and fell to the ground.

Coward, who was lying on his back on the carpet, wanted to get up, but suddenly found a huge shadow flying towards him, and the next moment, he was bitten by the throat by the lion Simba.

Umberto and Mario also showed their weapons, broke into the dance floor, and hunted down demons.

Half of the people on the dance floor were real human beings. Under the effect of "Shen Shenqu", they regained a little bit of sanity, and suddenly realized that the dance partner with whom they were hugging each other was a demon in disguise, and they panicked in shock!

These frightened noble men and women ran around screaming, and the scene in the hall was extremely chaotic.

The violin stopped abruptly.

The pianist also seemed to be frightened, and he didn't care about playing the piano. He stood up with his hands on the keyboard, and ran towards Gao Fei staggeringly.

At first, Goofy didn't pay attention to the pianist until Lisa's urgent warning came from behind him.

"Watch out for the pianist!"

Gao Fei's heart trembled, and without thinking he triggered a "thunder wave", which shook the pianist who was about to approach him and flew away.

Up until now, he hadn't seen anything suspicious about the pianist. It was purely out of trust in Lisa that he cast a spell to blow him away.

Gao Fei kept his guard up, and looked sideways at Lisa with doubts in his eyes.

"That pianist...has evil thoughts in his heart, trying to sneak up on you!" Lisa hurried to her fiancé and explained to him in a low voice.

Gao Fei knew that she had turned on "Detecting Thoughts". Since he saw that the pianist had murderous intentions, he could see that the other party was also pretending to be a demon, so he cast "dispel" on the pianist, intending to remove his disguise.

The result was somewhat unexpected.

The pianist who was enveloped by the green light curtain remained unchanged.

At first, Gao Fei thought it was because he failed the dispersal test, but he opened the astrolabe to check the real-time battle report, but he couldn't find a reminder that the test failed.

This can only show that there is no camouflage magic on the pianist, whether it is "disguise" or "veil of concealment", casting "dispel" on him is not the right medicine.

If this pianist wasn't transformed by a demon, why did he try to assassinate himself? Could it be that he really worshiped Saratus and volunteered to work for the demon as his assassin?

Under Gao Fei's puzzled gaze, the answer was revealed automatically.

A strange black figure, like thick boiling smoke, was emerging from the pianist.

Seeing this scene, Lisa's complexion changed drastically, she whistled hastily, and called the "Holy Light Angel" over.

The light emanating from the "Holy Light God Envoy" is equivalent to the second-level spell "Immortal Flame".

Illuminated by this ball of light, Gao Fei noticed that the black shadow that was peeling off from the pianist turned into a thin human figure.

There are horns on the head, a pair of deformed wings on the back, and sharp claws at the end of the slender limbs. The torso and face are indistinct, as if it will melt into the darkness at any time and disappear without a trace.

Gao Fei was no stranger to this weird phenomenon.

"Looks like an incorporeal creature...a ghost?"

"It's an incorporeal body, but not a ghost." Lisa corrected beside him, "It's a 'Shadow Fiend', a rare incorporeal subspecies among the Tanari!"

Hearing the word "shadow demon", Gao Fei immediately thought of various legends about "demon possession".
