Chapter 142 Clues to the Second Stage

It is said to be a statue, but in fact, including the base, the whole statue has been torn apart and turned into a pile of rubble lying on the ground. It can only be speculated from the size of the base that it should be a statue with a height of one person. , I don't know if it is "my angel" that Gelion refers to.

"Is this the place?"

Heine looked at the statue in front of him, and took out the paper in his arms. On it was a short word 'Ariel', which was the angel he was given.

At this time, a faint light radiated from the paper at some point, and a new sentence gradually appeared under the angel's name.

"—an angel is a beast, glaring at the sky in the west and devouring the sun."

Heine nodded thoughtfully.

"Only when the wavelength of the magic power of the specific leylines matches, the words will emerge. It is really a simple but practical technique. That is to say, only by finding here can we get the clues to the next step."

While talking to himself, Heine turned around and looked behind him, a faint smile appeared on his upright face.

"I didn't expect that I would become a cicada being targeted, so which mantis is targeting me as a cicada?"

What he said obviously meant that someone was following him.

Luvia was very helpless, so she could only remove the magic that concealed the breath, walked out from the woods, and stood in front of Heine generously, while Lucia still stood behind her like a servant.

There was also a piece of paper in her hand, which was emitting a faint light at the moment, on which was written the exact same sentence as that on the paper in Heine's hand.

"I didn't expect to be cheated by this piece of paper."

There was a trace of helpless smile on Luvia's face, she and Lucia's stalking were not exposed, but because she was close to the correct place, the next sentence as a clue naturally appeared on the paper she was carrying, exuding There was an extremely weak fluctuation of magic power, which was perceived by Heine.

"It was Ms. Edfield."

Heine looked at Luvia in surprise, "I thought it would be that astrologer Frenger, after all, he is the only [Magician] among us, and he has the reputation of 'Master Killer'."

There was a hint of sarcasm in Heine's words.

Firstly, he satirized Frenge's identity as a magician, and secondly, he satirized Luvia through Frenge, thinking that her behavior was close to that of a magician.

He is an orthodox magus, and it is only natural that he looks down on magus.

"You can say whatever you want, but since you have solved the puzzle of the first stage for me, I won't bother with you."

Luvia waved the paper in her hand, with a proud smile like a white swan appearing on her face, "I didn't expect it to be the zodiac sign. I really didn't think of it for a while."

The seventy-two letter names themselves can correspond to the twelve signs of the zodiac, and the twelve signs of the zodiac can refer to a direction, in other words, divide the 360 ​​degrees around itself into seventy-two equal parts , in this way, the direction is naturally clear.

Heine's face became a little unhappy. Anyone who knew that his achievements were stolen by others would be upset.

"Hmph, you may be right, but now I have grasped the clues of the second stage, so what about you, Miss Edelfelt?"

Luvia frowned, with a look of obvious surprise on her face.

The prompt for the second stage has just come out, but does this alchemy genius already have a clue? When she just saw this sentence that newly surfaced on the paper, she didn't think of any clues.

"I'll go back tonight, I hope you can gain something."

Heine had no intention of continuing the search, otherwise his next step would be stolen by Luvia. He cast a look of fear at Lucia, then bypassed the two of them and walked towards the castle from the other direction.

Liu Xia didn't stop him, but let him leave here silently.

After Heine's figure completely disappeared from her eyes, Luvia sighed, and brushed her golden curly hair in distress, "You really deserve to be a genius of the Istari family, I didn't expect to reach this point...Obviously I Nothing has been found yet."

"The clues he was referring to should be those footprints?"

Lucia pointed in the direction of the shattered statue, and said to Luvia, his vision is strong enough to see the whole area within a radius of 1,000 meters. It is impossible to see the scene several meters away.

"footprint?"

Luvia was taken aback for a moment, then walked up to the shattered statue, brushed aside the grass, and immediately found marks of different shades on the dirt.

"So that's the case, he's just playing tricks."

A confident smile appeared on Luvia's face again, she took out a blue gemstone from her pocket, and activated the magic.

"Call (Wake up)."

This seems to be the pre-preparation when she launches the magic. Every magician needs a high degree of concentration to perform the magic. As long as the 'switch' is turned on, you can concentrate immediately.

For Luvia, this pre-chapter is the preparation she needs to concentrate on.

"Search."

Luvia threw the sapphire out of her hand, causing it to fall to the ground, and then the gem lingered on the edge of the footprints for a while, as if a police dog was sniffing the prisoner, and then shot out in a certain direction.

"Let's catch up."

Luvia greeted Lucia, and the two chased after Sapphire.

Sapphire followed the trail of the owner of the footprints, left the woods, and shot towards the castle like an arrow.

"In the castle?"

Luvia looked at the trajectory of the sapphire movement, with a deep look of surprise on her face.

But she did not hesitate, but continued to run towards the castle. At the same time, Bai Nen's five fingers also secretly clasped several gemstones of different colors.

"Roar----"

The next moment, before Luvia rushed to the gate of the castle, a violent beast roar came from the direction of the castle, causing Luvia's complexion to change instantly.

That was not an ordinary roar of a beast. An ordinary roar of a beast would not make the young lady who was born as a famous magician change her face. The powerful magic power is enough to cause a substantial physical blow to the person who heard the sound, causing eardrums and internal organs to be injured.

"It's a monster!"

Luvia judged the real body of the beast almost instantly.

Immediately afterwards, a black shadow of a beast as tall as a person flashed out of the castle, and disappeared into the bushes in the distance at a speed far exceeding that of a cheetah.

Luvia's face suddenly turned ugly.

With her 'enhanced' eyesight, she saw that the beast seemed to be holding a bloody limb on its foreleg, which seemed to be an arm or a leg.

"Could it be that!?"

Luvia seemed to think of something suddenly, her complexion changed, and she hurriedly said to Liu Xia who was following her side by side: "Liangyi, you go and chase that beast, I will enter the castle!"
