Heaven's Formula

"You didn't notice it wrong." Qian Yan on the side whispered coldly, "The flow of Qi has changed."

Qi is somewhat similar to the essence of force, it can spontaneously maintain a certain existing state, and only when an external will changes it, it will produce changes and corresponding effects.

In other words, a technique was quietly triggered just now, and the range of effect is not small.

At this time, a guard hurried up to the stage and whispered a few words beside the abbot, the latter's complexion changed, and then he said loudly to the audience, "Dear guests, I must apologize to everyone, because some Due to special events, the auction has to be temporarily suspended!"

"What did you say? Stop?" The scene suddenly exploded.

"Then what should I do with the things that have been photographed? Is it possible that they should be invalidated?"

"What happened in the end, can't you tell me in detail?"

"Yes, we are all regular customers of the Holy Palace, there is nothing to hide!"

The attendees shouted in unison.

The host also knew that at this time, he had to come up with a statement - the people who could enter this hall were basically the upper echelons of Azure Fort, no matter how big the background of St. What a guest. "Everyone, please rest assured that the results of the auctions that have been completed will not change in any way. We will hand over the payment and items according to the rules, and it will be postponed for one to two days at most. In addition, the items that have not been auctioned will also be restarted on another day. Whether it's the participants or the goods being photographed, I guarantee that it will be exactly the same as today's list."

Fortunately, the situation of people is much more complicated.In a sense, this can already be seen as a demonstration of the strength of the Holy Palace - the itineraries of all the people present are different, and the other party must pay corresponding benefits to guarantee that they will be gathered again.

"As for the special incident, I will not hide it from everyone... It was found that someone secretly invaded the upper room area of ​​the villa. To ensure the safety of everyone, the Holy Palace made this decision. If there is any inconvenience, I hope everyone understands."

"Xia Fan—" Qianyan's expression darkened.

"Yeah." Xia Fan nodded incredulously. As early as the moment his breath changed, he had some bad premonitions in his heart. Now the host's words confirmed his guess, and Li's whereabouts were exposed! "But they haven't caught Li yet."

Otherwise, there is no need for the Holy Palace to interrupt the auction, or even disclose it to let the guests know - no matter what, letting unknown people into the villa will always have a certain negative impact on their reputation.

"Li's Transfiguration can't keep her hidden in the room all night, even if it is forced to be lifted, it will cause fluctuations in Qi." Qian Yan warned in a low voice, "It will be a matter of time before the villa finds her."

"Indeed, we have to find a way to join her." Xia Fan was calm on the surface, but he was more worried about the fox demon's safety than anyone else.Now that Li failed to return to Qianyan's side, it means that something went wrong on the road. It is undoubtedly unrealistic to expect her to return by herself without revealing her whereabouts. get away.

The most direct way is to create chaos and attract the attention of the guards——

"Then what should we do?" Suddenly someone asked loudly, "Not everyone can be assigned to the upper room. It is impossible for the Holy Palace to let us spend the night in the lounge, right?"

"Of course not." The host replied hastily, "Everyone only needs to pass the fan lock inspection once before they can leave the villa."

"what is that?"

"A comprehensive large-scale spell is also the most powerful means for protecting the rights and interests of the guests in the Holy Palace." The host pointed to the entrance and exit of the hall, "The method is very simple. The fan lock has been activated at this moment. The only thing everyone has to do is to pass through the gates one by one. .”

"The villa is chasing away guests!" Qian Yan suddenly realized, "They have considered the fact that there is an internal reaction among the guests!"

Since the "intruder" is also an invitee, there is a high probability that there will be cooperation between the inside and the outside. As long as all the guests are invited out of the villa one step in advance, the method of creating chaos and taking advantage of the chaos to escape will be self-defeating.

And without the worry of accidentally injuring distinguished guests, Sheng Gong was able to let go of his hands and feet and conduct a comprehensive search in the villa.

Olina also realized something was wrong at this moment, she looked at Xia Fan, her eyes seemed to be asking about Li's whereabouts.

There is a small audio device in Xia Fan's pocket, through which he can know Li's situation immediately. The problem is that once contacted, the other party may also lock on Li's movements immediately.

So he could only shake his head slightly, and at the same time asked, "Do you know anything about mythos?"

"That's something mages are good at. It's a bit similar to Qiguo's formation technique." Dragon Girl replied truthfully, "As for the specific effect, it depends on the caster's thoughts and abilities. But the magic lock used on the villa, It must not be too complicated."

"Since it resembles an array technique, does that mean it has a way to crack it?"

Olina nodded.

Xia Fan suddenly had an idea in his mind, "In this case, let's do what the other party said first!"

Chapter 544 In danger

The moment Azie's gaze stayed on the table, Li became alert.

She got out from under the bed without hesitation, ran towards the door, bit the handle, opened the door, and ran out of the room without a sound.

Just less than five steps away from her, there were two guards standing guard.

It's just that their eyes were all fixed on the direction of the aisle, and they didn't notice the fox demon sneaking out from behind at all.

Li leaped from the floor to the beam after several horizontal jumps back and forth, and at this moment, the sound of a sharp knife piercing the air came from the room.

She lay on her stomach at the top of the aisle, holding her breath, completely merging with the shadows.

After a while, Azie came out of the house, "Take me to the manager, someone has invaded my room!"

His shout alarmed all the patrolling guards on the third floor. For a while, people came and went under Li's body, completely blocking the corridor.

This method is effective for ordinary thieves, but it is meaningless for Li.

Obviously they lack experience in dealing with oriental monsters—half beasts cannot transform, but monsters can. For any "small species" that can give full play to their own advantages, the entire roof is an unimpeded open space, let alone spiritual intelligence An even better fox demon.

What she really needs to beware of is the person in the room who is sensitive.

He just waited for a long time, but the man didn't come out of the house for a long time.

Seeing that the situation below gradually stabilized, Li felt relieved.She stood up and began to crawl along the shadow of the beam.The auction hall is on the first floor, and she just needs to return from the corridor entrance by the same route.

The stairs are the most exposed place, because the floor here is the upper stairs, so she has no place to hide, so she has to run to the end in one breath.

Li squatted at the entrance of the corridor for a while, and found an opportunity when no one was there, and jumped down.

The moment his feet left the crossbeam, the surrounding atmosphere suddenly changed, as if a stone had been thrown into a calm lake——

Before Li had time to think about what that meant, his head hit an invisible wall!

Waves of light swayed around, and she fell heavily to the ground, her mind buzzing.

Just now... what happened?

She staggered up, and found that she did not jump into the corridor as expected, but fell beside the first step of the stairs.

Li tentatively stretched out her claws forward, and found that she could no longer cross the stairs for half a step—an invisible barrier was placed horizontally in front of her, and its length and width basically occupied all the space of the corridor!

To make matters worse, there were also footsteps behind her.

Li could only resist his dizziness, climbed up the roof beam again, and continued to move towards another corridor entrance.

This time, however, her method of disappearing doesn't seem to work.

No matter which fork in the road, there will be guards following her, as if they can see her footprints.

"There's something wrong with this path!"

"That's right, it's like trying to avoid us on purpose. Wild cats and the like can't do that, can they?"

"Notify Lord Carmen quickly—we may have found the intruder!"

The guard's conversation made Li's heart sink suddenly.

Listening to their words, it seems to be able to capture the trajectory of all the moving objects in the room!And his intention of constantly looking for new routes, on the contrary, hastened to expose his whereabouts.

Li suddenly realized that the change of breath before was not just a problem of a wall, but now the whole villa might be shrouded in spells, and there was no secret about her actions in the house.

The room leak happened to be raining overnight, and she felt that the Qi in her body was being consumed at an accelerated rate—more precisely, it was being sucked away.This was the first time Li encountered such a situation.There is no doubt that this is a restriction deliberately imposed by the Holy Palace on those who are sensitive. As long as they stay in the house for half a night, even if they are not discovered, they will become ordinary people. There is no chance of winning in the face of a large number of guards.

If it goes on like this, if she lasts for more than a quarter of an hour at most, the Transfiguration will lose its effectiveness.

The situation is already very critical.

Just when Li was hesitating whether to tell Xia Fan the news, the audio device on his back vibrated first.

That's a reminder of the induction of electromagnetic signals!

She immediately connected to the intercom.

"Hey... Li, are you okay?" After a burst of noise, Xia Fan's eager voice came from the loudspeaker.

"It's okay for now, but they seem to have discovered my movements." Li continued to circle the guards on the roof to ensure that they couldn't see him directly with the naked eye, "and there are spells in this house that hinder my actions , I can’t go back to the first floor to join you.”

"That's the mountain villa's fan lock at work, you can understand it as a formation." Hearing the news of Li Wushi, the other side let out a sigh of relief, "Where are you now?"

"In the corridor on the third floor, I can't tell the exact location."

"Can I go to the surrounding rooms?" Xia Fan asked again.

"It's not a big problem, they haven't surrounded me yet." Li replied while running.

"Very well. Now you go to the house on the west side—any one as long as it's the outermost row by the windows."

The formation can even seal the corridor entrance, and it is impossible to miss the common escape exit such as the window.In other words, there is still a chance to dodge and move around in the aisle. Once you enter the house, if the door is blocked by the enemy, it will be a dead end.

However, based on his trust in Xia Fan, Li still agreed without hesitation.

"What about after entering the house?"

"Stand by the window and let me see you."

……

"Your Excellency Azie, I heard that the guards have locked the position of the intruder, and Lord Carmen is going to arrest him."

After listening to the report from the attendants of the Holy Palace, Azie suddenly recovered, "Take me there quickly."

"But...the other party is a demon possessor, there may be some danger—"

He lit up the ring in his hand, and interrupted the other party directly, "Do you think I have no defense at all? What's more, there are mystic restrictions here, and Master Carmen is in charge, even if he has great ability, he can't make any waves Come." At this point, Azie's voice suddenly turned cold, "Listen, this guy has invaded my room, and now he is my prey, and I will not hand him over to anyone else. Before I die, I want to Hearing his most sincere confession—if anyone gets in the way, I don't mind a replacement, do you understand?"

The attendant swallowed, and did not dare to say another word, "I understand, I understand, please come with me."

Surrounded by a group of people, Azie arrived at the "trapped place" of the intruders, in front of a vacant upper room on the third floor.

There were several guards lying on the floor at the door, their eyes closed, life and death unknown, obviously the first round of confrontation had already taken place between the two sides.

And Master Carmen stood in the center of the hall, confronting the intruders head-on.

There were no candles or oil lamps in the room, and it was basically pitch black, with the only source of light being a ray of white moonlight shining through the window.With the help of this little light, Azie saw the thief who was forced to the window sill.

Judging from the outline, the opponent is a female half-beast.

Chapter 545 Thunder Arrow

How... is it a half-beast?

Azie was a little surprised. It should be impossible for these marginalized people from Azure Fort to be put into St. Blaine's Palace.

Did she sneak in by herself?

impossible.He immediately rejected this idea. The half-beast's talent is extremely low, even if its physique is stronger than that of an average person, its upper limit is far lower than that of a normal demon possessor.Those legendary thieves who came and went without a trace in history had to start out as a human being.It is undoubtedly a fantasy to escape the detection of the garrison mage at the level of a half-beast.

"Master Carmen, this man..."

"Be careful, she is an illusionist, you'd better not get too close." Although the voice of the old mage was calm and confident, the content of the words still surprised Azie.

Half-beast... mastered the ability to use spells?

Is this also the work of the Church of the Sun God?

Being able to confront a high-level mage has already proved the opponent's strength.The reason why Master Carmen doesn't do anything now is that he wants to wait until Mysuo drains the magic power in his body, and then no matter how incredible the origin of this half-beast is, it can only be slaughtered.

Azie looked at her coldly—under the dim moonlight, most of her figure was covered by the shadow of the house, and her face seemed to be covered with a veil. Except for the pair of eye-catching long ears on the top of her head, her most distinctive features It should be those pale gold pupils.

It's really a beautiful color, like gemstones inlaid with golden sand... He couldn't help but think to himself, if such eyes were dug out and soaked in embalming fluid, they would surely be a good collection.

Of course, for such a rare half-beast, it might not be bad to make a specimen as a whole.

"Master Carmen, ask my subordinates to go up and try." Azie said in a ferocious tone, "Since she has provoked me, I am naturally duty-bound to deal with it. Even if I can't deal with her, I can spend more magic power on her." It's easier for you to grab it."

The old mage nodded slightly, agreeing.

Just when Azie was about to give the order, he suddenly heard a strange voice.

The sound was not loud, and if it wasn't for the silence in the room, he might not have been able to hear it.If I have to describe it, it is like the rustling sound of the wind blowing through the sedge field, but the former is much denser and less like the sound that exists in nature.

"Hey...get down..."

Is this someone talking?

The moment Azie noticed the sound, the half-beast had already bent over and lay on the ground.

He hadn't realized what was going on, when suddenly a loud noise exploded outside the house, and the violent bombardment made the whole main building tremble!

The blue waves fluctuate on the wall, flickering and flickering, like candles swaying in the wind.But this kind of vision only lasted for a short while, and the wave of light dissipated and disappeared without a trace.

The old mage's expression changed drastically!

"What was the sound just now—" Azie hadn't finished asking, when he saw Master Carmen chanting a spell quickly, and at the same time took out a silver spell scroll.

In an instant, a transparent barrier protruded from the floor of the hall, blocking everyone behind.

"Everyone get out! Get out of here!" the mage shouted.

His words were cut off by another explosion.

This explosion happened directly inside the house, and the violent air flow that swept through instantly broke through all the doors and window sashes.The barrier was shattered like glass, and a mass of fiery red flames spread out, knocking all the people at the door to the ground almost in the blink of an eye.
