Chapter 593: Flaw

Heavy rain, strong winds, thunder and lightning... When the three gathered in the upper city, the scene outside was no different from the end of the world.

"Azure Castle...it's over."

Many people sat down on the ground with pale faces, seemingly giving up resistance.

Even the count himself, who had always been as steady as a mountain, showed a hint of fatigue.

In the face of natural disasters, personal power is really insignificant. But as the leader of the team, he must not express such thoughts.

But Fumi discovered something strange.

The group of evil spirits did not take advantage of the situation to surround them and storm the house where they were hiding, but they disappeared for a while.

Why? Is it possible that the enemy also wants to use fear to torture his opponent?

He came to the window, cautiously looked around, and was suddenly surprised to find that the demon was frantically escaping from the thunder!

Several small demon species were hit by the dazzling lightning and turned into a ball of smoke on the spot.

Not only that, even the twin icons in the distance had a clear reaction to the thunder - it rolled up its huge wings, continuously shot out feathers, and used those differentiated evil spirits to resist the thunder, as if it didn't want the thunder and lightning to fall on itself. On your body!

A strange idea suddenly came to Fumi's mind.

Could it be that this thunder was not caused by evil spirits?

When he told everyone about this discovery, everyone couldn't help but feel refreshed.

More people got up and ran to the window to observe the situation outside.

"Look! That big evil demon seems to be unable to withstand it!"

"Fumi is right, this thunder is aimed at the enemy!"

"The question is who in Azure Castle has such an ability? Master Carmen?"

"It's impossible... Even if he had it, it would only be used to protect St. Blainey's Palace. I think he should be packing up valuables in the villa and preparing to evacuate."

Holy Palace?

Fumi suddenly remembered that the forest seemed to have been burned by high-heat air waves, and that witnesses had seen blue lightning flashing in the forest——

"Could it be that... legendary mage?"

Earl Cleveland frowned, "Isn't that the murderer who attacked the Holy Palace? What reason does he have to help Azure Castle?"

"It would make sense if that person was not going for the Holy Palace, but for Achie." Fumi said solemnly.

"How to say?"

"I have investigated through some connections that Achie's investments in the past year have all been outside Azure Castle, and he has also transferred a lot of industries to Sun City. In addition, the trial team has asked me many times to learn about Achie. , I suspect that he has smelled the smell of this evil disaster in advance."

Cleveland's face suddenly turned livid.

"Hey, look over there! There's a Dragonborn flying towards us!" Someone suddenly exclaimed.

Fumi looked around and saw a flying dragon with lightning all over its body quickly swooping down towards the ground. Thunders fell on its side, but it couldn't hurt it at all. And there was a familiar figure lying on the Dragonborn's back——

Now he knew who the triggerman was.

"That's...the Eastern Ambassador?" The old count doubted his own eyes for a moment.

"That should be true." Fumi nodded, "And he is probably also the legendary spellcaster who caused trouble in the Holy Palace."

…

Taxis had to admit that Ambassador Xia was not lying when he said that there might be a way to deal with the twin evil spirits.

This hand shaping technique really amazed her.

For a moment, she thought she would also be engulfed by lightning, but the electric grid surrounding her not only did not harm her, but also diverted all the lightning that struck her. This was the first time she had experienced this kind of shuttle in the sea of ​​thunder. Return to experience.

Not only the four-winged demons chasing them, but also most of the monsters on the ground were destroyed, and the upper city area was temporarily restored to cleanliness. Unfortunately, only a few of the thunders in the sky fell on the big demon and did not pose a substantial threat to it. If she could get close to the icon, the situation might be completely different, but she knew that such an opportunity would no longer be possible.

After catching Xia Fan, Taxis planned to send him back to the White Sands, but saw another team of people coming towards her.

She landed on the ground and transformed into a human form, and found that the people who came were none other than the lord of Azure Castle and the Split Tooth family who served as guards.

"It turns out to be the priest." Cleveland stroked his chest and saluted, then looked at Xia Fan carefully. "I didn't expect that the one who helped Azure Castle the most was an Eastern envoy. On behalf of this city, I would like to express my gratitude to you."

"Organize an evacuation of personnel and rescue as many residents as possible." Taxis wiped the rain off her face. "The trial team has exhausted all means. I'm afraid this city cannot be saved."

"But the energy evocation spell just now seems to be quite effective against evil spirits..." Someone in the team couldn't help but say.

"We can't enter the center of the vortex." Taxis briefly recounted the encounter just now. "If we don't get close to the enemy, we won't be able to severely damage the target. Moreover, such a powerful spell must consume a lot of magic power. You It shouldn't be possible to perform it continuously, right?" At this point, she looked at her partner.

Xia Fan spat out a mouthful of salty rainwater, "I think I can do it again."

Thanks to constant practice, the amount of Qi he can incorporate has also been greatly improved. Even a spell like Jiuxiao Tianlei, which consumes an astonishing amount of energy, will not cause him to lose all combat ability after casting it.

Taxis was slightly startled. Is this guy really a human? Why does it feel like it's more than a dragonborn who is born to know how to cast spells?

"But if you can't get into the center of the vortex, it's useless to try again, right?"

"That's true." Xia Fan nodded, "But I think this storm barrier is not invulnerable, we still have a chance."

"We have confirmed that it won't work on the ground." Fumi sighed, "It seems that the evil demons are endless. They keep pouring out from dark corners, and some even appear suddenly from behind. We can't even get close to the block where it is. If it weren't for the thunder just now, we might still be surrounded by the enemy."

"What exactly do you mean by chance?" Taksis asked.

"This evil demon is indeed powerful, but it seems to be too deeply influenced by the Holy Spirit Twins." Xia Fan pointed to his eyes, "When the Nine Heavens Thunder fell just now, I noticed that both of its heads were facing the direction of the thunder, one looking up at the sky and the other looking down at the ground. Compared with some headless evil demons, this is not a good habit."

Taksis couldn't help but shudder, "You mean, this evil demon perceives the surrounding world through its eyes?"

In theory, evil spirits are a collection of qi and accumulation, and do not have human internal organs, mouth, nose, ears and eyes, so there is no sight and hearing. They will instinctively chase the qi of living things with the goal of destroying all living things. Even if they are in human form, their facial features should only be decorations.

The girl suddenly thought that every time the wind direction changed, the evil demon did stare at her with one head.

Two heads that can be flexibly rotated, plus four eyes, the range that can be covered is definitely not small, and can even be called quite wide.

But it is no longer watertight.

"I can't be 100% sure, but at least it's worth a try." Xia Fan replied calmly.
