Chapter 1696 I Would Rather You Fail
I remember that when Delphi crossed time and came to this age when she was still young, she was still in control of one of the several branches of the soul rule. Especially when she met Hai Erbo for the first time, she even used this to force him to retreat.
But now, Delphi not only lost the ability to cast magic, but even "lost" the soul rule rune she once had.
Obviously, even if the evolution of the world seems to be more and more similar to her past memories, the future has indeed undergone tangible changes under Maca's intervention.
Because she herself is the best proof.
But if this is the case, then...where did the soul rule that she mastered originally go?
"Mr. McLean, what do you... mean?"
When Willy's father saw the thing in Maca's hand, he immediately thought of a possibility. But at the same time, he couldn't believe that Maca would really do what he thought.
"Mr. Blois," Maca looked down at the thing in his palm, but said calmly, "You should understand what I mean, don't you?"
"No! Mr. McLean, this is too dangerous! Yes, if it is you, you must be more aware of its dominance and terror than me! It is too risky to do so—"
Facing Bulova's face mixed with astonishment and worry, Maca paused for a moment, then couldn't help but nodded with a wry smile.
"Well, I am indeed very clear! And, to be honest, I am not completely sure about this attempt... But it is precisely because of this that I invite you to set up the last insurance for me!"
When Maca said this, he couldn't help shrugging, and then said calmly:
"And in fact, this is not the first time I have tried this! I have some understanding of its essence, and then... I have also mastered another kind of power of the same type."
As he spoke, he raised his hand and put the thing in his hand in front of his eyes, and then shook it lightly.
It can be seen that what he is holding with his right index finger and thumb at this moment is a test tube with a seal attached. And in that test tube, a scarlet viscous liquid was shaking slightly with his shaking movements.
That's right,
This is the so-called "cursed substance" that Maca separated from Willie's body. After a series of research on Maca, it can be concluded that it is also a sinful prop of the same type as the Gryffindor sword, the mirror of devouring, the monument of bewitching and other magic items.
In the red liquid in this small test tube, there is also a certain branch of the soul rule!
"I already have one of the branch runes of the soul rule. If I can master the other one, even if the magic power has not recovered, at least I can have a self-protection power when facing Hai Erbo again... um ,perhaps?"
"Just 'probably' won't work!"
Just when Mr. Blois was about to say something, with a soft "click", the door of the study was opened from the outside.
"Delphi?"
Maca glanced back suddenly, then couldn't help shaking his head—because of the exhaustion of magic power, he couldn't even notice that Delphi had followed her secretly, which shows the seriousness of the current situation.
"Mr. Blois, please forgive me for breaking in without saying hello," Delphi first apologized to Willy's father, and then went straight to the sofa where Maca was sitting, and looked at his hands. The test tube inside said slowly, "It seems that one of the reasons for my loss of strength has been found."
"Yeah!" Maca smiled at her, "But, isn't that good? Let me bear such unreasonable power!"
"Dad—Mr. McLean!"
Delphi couldn't help looking at Maca with a slightly complaining look when she heard this, and almost slipped her tongue in front of Willy's father in a moment of excitement.
But Maca just waved his hand indifferently, and said with a smile:
"Everyone has their own things to do - Delphi, go and Luna and Hermione to complete the formation as soon as possible!"
But after hearing what Maca said, Delphi couldn't help pursing her lips again.
"I came here just for this!" She said, "Tell me the truth, can the array you designed really make Hai Erbo completely untraceable?"
"Of course." Maca affirmed unmoved.
"You liar!" Delphi said angrily, "It can't do it - am I right? Otherwise, why do you have to come and talk to Mr. Blois about it now?"
While saying that, she pointed to the test tube in Maca's hand.
"In my opinion, you plan to stay and disturb Hai Erbo's sight after coaxing us all into the transfer map and going to a safe place! You... You did this, did you consider our feelings? !"
Since Delphi appeared, Bulova on the side has never spoken again. One of the reasons was naturally that he didn't quite agree with Maca's approach, and the other reason was that the possibility that Delphi noticed also surprised him.
So until now, he finally couldn't help but say:
"Mr. McLean... are you really going to stay alone to face Hai Erbo?"
On the other side, after hearing Delphi's words and Mr. Blois' question, Maca couldn't help but sighed helplessly.
"Delphi, do you think I should praise you for being smart? Or..." He rubbed his forehead and said softly, "Okay! You are right, as you said, I intend to stay for this The second retreat is over."
"Of course, there is one thing you guessed wrong-that set of formation diagrams can indeed erase the traces of everyone leaving, but it takes time. Because if it is Hai Erbo, even if the remaining magic power is disturbed, there will still be some damage. The possibility of being analyzed by him, so it will take a while for the magic power to calm down naturally."
Hearing what Maca said, Delphi continued his words:
"So, you're going to stay and make sure this transfer is safe...is that right?"
"That's right, that's it." Maca said, shaking the test tube in his hand again, "That's why I need this—it can give me the ability to deal with unexpected situations."
But at this point, Maca shrugged again.
"However, all of this is based on the premise that I have really successfully controlled this power! If I fail, I can only go with you... As for whether Haierbo will find it after that Our whereabouts can only be determined by fate!"
"Then I'd rather you fail!" Delphi couldn't help saying loudly after hearing this.
