Chapter 243 The Mystery of Gold
In the center of Kinoko Town, there is a very wide park.
The trees here are densely shaded, the jasper is lush, and there is a shallow lake in the center, reflecting the full moon tonight.
However, almost no one would come here, and it was almost deserted, so it was set as one of the five fulcrums covering the barrier of Kinoko Town.
Qingzi's task tonight is to patrol around this park.
There are only the last two fulcrums of the enchantment. If Cheng Zi takes action tonight, he will definitely focus on the two fulcrums, so the probability of encountering Cheng Zi is 1/2.
Qingzi is ready for a decisive battle.
But she never imagined that the final scene would be so ironic.
"Uh... ah..."
Feet dangling.
The throat was locked by a slender arm.
The trachea was blocked, the air could not enter the lungs at all, and the sound could not be made, and could only struggle to make difficult syllables.
Her hands tightly clenched the opponent's arm, and her legs kept kicking the opponent's abdomen, but the opponent was completely indifferent, just looking at her with pure green eyes, as if studying how she suffocated to death .
to die.
really want to die.
Qingzi felt that the oxygen in his chest was getting less and less, his brain gradually went blank, all his strength was drained from his body, and even a little bit of struggle gradually disappeared.
Unreasonable at the end.
The suffocated death has no grace to speak of.
But she is indeed going to die like this now.
—by the blond boy who squeezed her throat tightly.
It was a short boy who looked to be around thirteen or fourteen years old. He was wearing a white down jacket, his blond hair was left to his neck, and his facial features had European characteristics.
What's more important is his eyes, those green pupils seem to have no idea what cruelty is, they just have a simple face, and they are killing Qingzi as a matter of course.
"Now, Beo, put her down."
From the shade came the voice of a mature woman.
"Okay, Miss Orange."
When the blond boy was called by name, he happily put Qingzi down, then took a few steps back, and handed over the scene to his master.
A woman in a green dress came out from the shade of the trees. She had dark red short hair that was deeper than dusk, and wore a pair of black-rimmed glasses on her face. She looked very gentle.
"I haven't seen you for three and a half years, Qingzi."
Aoqi Chengzi came in front of Qingzi, reached out and took off the glasses on the bridge of the nose.
As if a switch was pressed, her edges and corners suddenly became sharp, her red pupils instantly became extremely sharp, and her whole person was full of aggression.
"After such a long time, you still haven't improved at all."
"Ahem!"
Qing Zi slumped on the ground, covering his throat with his hands.
Her face was flushed red, her lungs heaved violently, sucking in the air greedily.
"Heh...you have changed a lot...ahem...Mother Fruit!"
She said the title she had held back for a long time in a mocking tone.
Even after experiencing a near-death experience, the strong look on her face has not worn off in the slightest, and she still carries out her strong self, without the slightest decadence of being frightened by death.
"Mom...?!"
Cheng Zi's breathing stagnated, and his face turned ugly instantly.
"I'm only 21 years old! I'm far away from my aunt!"
That's right.
Don't look at her mature appearance, she seems to have the temperament of a twenty-seven or eight-year-old sister, but that's just that she was born precocious, in fact she is only 21 years old.
Cheng Zi is like a cat whose tail has been stepped on, looking at Qing Zi more and more unkindly.
"Forget it, I originally planned to talk to you a few more words."
Chengzi immediately became less interested.
"Beyo, I leave it to you. You can torture her like this. It doesn't matter if you lose a few legs or break a few bones, as long as you don't kill her."
"It's really capricious, Miss Orange."
The blond boy named Beo stepped forward and complained to Cheng Zi.
Then he looked at Qingzi on the ground, and a simple smile appeared on his face again, as if darkness never existed in him from the very beginning.
"I heard Miss Chengzi say that you have the strongest mystery in the world, is that true?"
He squatted down, keeping his eyes on Qingzi's level, and then stretched out his right hand.
"I came out of the village to fight against a powerful mystery, so I am very interested in what Miss Orange said about 'the strongest mystery in the world' - if you don't use it anymore, I will take your The body is dismembered?"
His right hand was shrouded in a layer of golden flame.
In that layer of flames, his right hand gradually began to deform, from a slender human wrist to a beast claw covered with golden hair, and it fell towards Qingzi.
His movements are not fast, like a cat playing with a mouse.
His demeanor was very calm and contemptuous, as if he looked down on everything in the world.
But Qingzi felt as if he was facing a formidable enemy.
Facing the approach of the blond boy, she quickly jumped back, but the golden beast claw approached like a shadow, as sharp as if it could grab her slender body with a single blow.
"A familiar?"
While Beo was playing with Qingzi, Chengzi looked up at the sky.
A black gray starling hovered in the sky. Its pitch-black appearance was enough to blend into the night sky, but it couldn't hide from the eyes of Cheng Zi, a professional magician.
"Is there a familiar with beads?"
Chengzi knows that kind of bird, and only Youzhu can make that kind of familiar to monitor the situation in the city.
"The situation on her side is much more difficult than here, and she dares to pay attention to this side?"
Cheng Zi sighed inwardly.
In all fairness, she didn't want to kill Youzhu, but the situation didn't seem to allow it.
In the face of that enemy, Youzhu must surely die.
After all, the level of mystery is too different. It is impossible for a modern magician to face that enemy head-on, even the familiar of the Great Witch.
Orange ignored the gray starling.
Her sister's screams could be heard in her ears, but she was completely indifferent. She even took out a cigarette from her pocket and lit it, puffing.
As long as she doesn't die, it doesn't matter how much she tortures her. This is an order she personally gave to the envoy Mobeo, so of course she won't soften her heart in the slightest.
"call--!"
But suddenly, a violent wind came from a distance, and quickly approached here.
"what happened?"
Cheng Zi looked into the distance inexplicably.
It was a little dark shadow.
It was very small at first, but it grew rapidly, and gradually emerged the outline of a human being.
"Flying? No, floating...not at all, it's landing—could it be a projectile?!"
Cheng Zi's expression suddenly tensed up.
She concentrated her attention and focused her gaze on the human being ejected at extreme speed, and then saw a very familiar and extremely aggressive face.
"Is that boy?!"
