Hyperdimensional Warlock

Chapter 361

The moon was dark and the wind was high, a crow with bright red eyes streaked across the sky, flapped its wings and landed in the magician's hand.

A note was tied to the crow's paw, and the magician let the crow go away after removing the note.

There was a line of characters written on the note: "The forest of resentment, the cave for hiding corpses".

"Why are you meeting here this time? What is Michelle thinking?" The magician frowned after reading the typesetting, and handed the note to Angel beside him.

Angel arrived at the magician's stronghold at 8 o'clock in the evening.Because the magician is his guide, so if you want to go to the extraordinary party, you must first meet the magician.

But what he didn't expect was that the note at the meeting place was not delivered until close to midnight.

"Who is Michelle? Is it his real name?" Angel took the note and glanced at the location above. He was completely confused about the location mentioned above.

"I don't know if it's his real name." The magician explained, "He is the leader of this gathering. We have a leader every time we have extraordinary gatherings. This time it's his turn."

Angel frowned suspiciously: "With such a rotation system, isn't it afraid that someone will set up a special trap to ambush?"

The magician shook his head: "It is impossible to set a trap. For us, communication is the only way to promote strength."

Angel originally wanted to ask, aren't you afraid of murder and robbery?But thinking about the wealth of this group of people, it is estimated that there is nothing worth robbing. The only thing they can make good use of is probably-to live well.Only by living can we communicate, and communication can grow.

"Let's go, if I don't want to introduce you today, I don't want to go to this place." The magician complained and left first.

"What's wrong with this location?" Angel asked.

The magician shook his head: "There's nothing wrong with it, it's just that it's said to be haunted. I've visited it before, and there's nothing weird about it, but it's too dark and smells bad."

Angel pondered: "The corpse cave, the name seems a bit inappropriate?"

"It's more than inappropriate, it's a large corpse cave! The Forest of Resentment is in the Byzantine Mountains, and the corpse cave is actually a place where the forest guards dispose of the corpses. For poachers, or people killed by wild animals, the forest guards will Throw the corpses of these people into this cave, and over the years, there will be countless corpses." The magician complained all over his face.

Angel remembered that the magician mentioned their previous gatherings, and most of them were champagne and wine, feasts and delicacies.Occasionally there are low-key ones, but they are also first-class in the old castle, and it is also the first time to go to a party in a corpse cave.No wonder he looked disgusted.

Angel also felt that this gathering seemed a little different. Why did you choose a dead man's cave for a good exchange gathering?
The two of them left the city, their footsteps began to speed up, and they ran all the way towards the mountains and forests.

The more he ran, the more familiar Angel felt... Isn't this section of the road the same as the road he walked when he left the forest?
When he arrived at the Forest of Wrath, a glint of light flashed in Angel's eyes.

This forest happened to be the forest that Angel had passed after he came out of the forest watchman's cabin.When he passed by this place at the beginning, he had doubts about it.

Because of this forest, the plants are too lush and dense, the trees are tall and the branches are luxuriant, covering all the sunlight, even at noon, walking here is as dark as night.But these were not enough for Angel to take it to heart. The reason why he was so impressed with this place was also because there was a faint resentment here.

At that time, he also speculated whether there were many people buried underground... Now it seems that his guess was not wrong, but it was not underground, but a corpse cave.

"Here, here is the corpse cave." The magician pointed to a dark underground cave.

The burrow was located in the middle of several lush trees, with an opening of about five or six meters, and it was so dark that the bottom could not be seen.Before Angel approached, he could smell a strong rotten smell.

"It's thanks to this hole that the plants here are so prosperous." The magician looked at the hole with disgust, and the strong stench made him really not want to step into it.

However, thinking that Angel would inevitably provide a kind of knowledge when he joined the Extraordinary Party, he held his nose and jumped into the hole.

Angel also jumped down.However, after jumping into the hole, he secretly alerted Toby. He still felt that the magician's complaint when he received the note was a bit hypocritical.When he actually came to the corpse cave, saw the environment here, and felt the filth around him, he understood why the magician was angry... There is indeed a problem with the wizard gathering in such an environment.

"Damn Michelle, I must let him know later how wrong it is to choose this place for a party!" The magician cursed angrily after he landed, and prepared to light the book.

"Wait, don't light the fire." Angor smelled a strong pungent smell in the air, both rancid and gas.

With a thought in his mind, Angel used the light technique.

With the lighting of the light technique, the surrounding situation instantly became clear.

There are corpses all around, some have turned into white bones, and some are still rotting. The magician found that beside him is a half-rotten corpse. There are still maggots crawling on the corpse, and the ground is covered with small black shells that carry rotten flesh. insect.

The magician kicked the corpse's head away: "In this kind of place, who has the appetite to eat at the party tonight! Isn't Michelle just trying to get our attention?"

Angel silently glanced at the magician: You still want to eat?
"Is the meeting place inside?" Under the light of the light technique, Angel saw a winding passage in the cave.The end of the passage was dark, like a huge mouth waiting to be swallowed by people, exuding a strong stench.

"It should be." The magician walked towards the passage first, while Angel lowered his hat, lowered his sense of presence, and followed behind the magician.

"Is this the light technique?" The magician looked at Angel enviously as he walked, "That's great, you know far more tricks than me."

Angel smiled and didn't answer.

The magician originally wanted to take advantage of the situation to blackmail, to see if he could get some information about the light technique, but Angel didn't even reply, so he had no choice but to remain silent.

Such a cold atmosphere lasted until the end of the passage.

At the end is a door, the door has been opened, and you can see that there are many people sitting outside the inner circle table, only one seat is still vacant.

Everyone sitting at the table looked at the magician with a smile.

"Magician, you are really slow in coming, you are the only one missing." The brown-haired young man sitting in the main seat greeted.

The magician yelled at the young man viciously: "Michelle! What the hell are you doing, why did you choose to meet here?"

The brunette young man Michelle said with a smile: "Every time it's a luxurious banquet, this time it's a little different. Are you surprised or unexpected?"

"Accidental fart." The magician cursed.

"You're not bad, I haven't seen you for half a year, and you can actually use the light technique." Michelle didn't care about being scolded at all, and walked out from the seat, grabbed the magician's arm and dragged him towards the door.

"The Light Art is..." The magician turned around to introduce Angel, but found that there was no one behind him, and the Light Art disappeared.

Just then, Michelle had dragged him into the room.When the magician entered the room, he still wanted to break away from Michelle's hand, and was going to look back to see where Angel had gone, but before he could go out, Michelle stopped him.

There was a weird smile on the corner of Michelle's mouth: "Come on, don't go."

These words, combined with Michelle's expression, made the magician feel a little alert.He looked around at the other people in the room, everyone was looking at him with a smile, but no matter men or women, their expressions were as stiff as puppets.

"You...what's the matter? Pooh? Captain? Long ears? Pluto?" The magician called out one by one, but no one responded, until he saw a man wearing a wide-brimmed short hat. , finally got a response: "Shadow?"

The man took off his hat, smiled and waved to the magician: "Ah, it's been a long time."

"Shadow? What's going on here?" The magician had fear in his eyes. He already sensed something was wrong, and stepped back step by step.

But when he stepped back, he was stopped by Michelle.But at this time, Michelle's expression became as dull as the others, with a faint smile on the corner of her mouth.

"What's going on? A party? Take your seat, I'll tell you something useful today." Shadow pointed to the only vacant seat and said to the magician.

The magician tremblingly refused: "No need, I, I have something to go back first."

However, before the magician could turn around, the door behind him closed with a bang.The thick copper gate made a violent sound, and also set off a wave of dust on the ground.

The magician ran to the door and tried to open it.But helplessly found that the door was locked and could not be opened without a key.

"What are you going to do? Robbing? I don't have anything on me!" The magician remembered that not long ago, the mask asked him, isn't he afraid of being ambushed by someone setting a trap?He also vowed at the time that no one would do this, but the present report will come soon.

By the way, the magician's eyes lit up, isn't there a mask?Where is the mask?Did he notice something was wrong in advance, so he hid it aside?

Think of this possibility.The magician shouted loudly: "Fake..." Help me!

But before he could utter the words, the magician saw a small black shadow descend from the sky and fly towards him.Just when the magician was about to say something, he saw the little black shadow stretch out his hand lightly, pulling out a struggling shadow from the magician's body and putting it into the gray cloth bag...

When the little black shadow saw that the shadow was in his hands, he let out a strange "hee hee" laugh, jumped back to the shadow's shoulder, and then handed the small gray cloth bag to the shadow.

Yingying touched Xiao Heiying's head, as if to praise him.

"What's that?" The magician felt weak for a while, but he didn't pass out like other people who lost their shadows.

Shadow touched the small cloth bag, "This is my trophy."

loot?The magician seemed to have thought of something, and lowered his head to look at the ground——

"My shadow... disappeared?! Sure enough, you are the one who stole the shadow in the city!"

Shadow raised his eyebrows: "Ah? When did you find out?"

The magician gasped: "Blonde hair and blue eyes...you always sit next to Kabasha and Little John..."

Shadow suddenly realized: "So it's because of this... Unexpectedly, you are still the smartest person present. Then, now we need to give some rewards to the smart people."

While talking, Shadow suddenly opened his hand, and white lines emerged from his ten fingers. The white lines rushed into the gray cloth bag containing the magician's shadow with a surge of magic power.

A miniature black figure was dragged out of the cloth bag.

If you look carefully, you can see this palm-sized black figure, which is similar in shape to a magician, but it is all black, without any distinguishable features.

The shadow used the white line to hold the black figure, and slowly moved on the table.

At the same time, the magician's expression suddenly became dull, and he followed the black shadow on the table, moving slowly... The black shadow raised his left foot, and he raised his left foot, and the black shadow raised his right foot, and he raised his right foot.

It's like a real puppet.

And the puppeteer is the shadow!
