Chapter 768 Kidnapping?

The girl's body trembled in the air, and the tentacles wrapped around her body and limbs couldn't help but extend forward. Finally, the girl restrained by the tentacles began to tremble crazily like a doll about to collapse, and then fell heavily to the ground and disappeared. movement.

"Phew... finally done."

Duanmuhuai silently wiped the cold sweat from his forehead. It can be said that it was really dangerous. Fortunately, as an old god, he already had the ability to summon other similar beings, and Duanmuhuai happened to know that the Lord of Tindalos was the mortal enemy of Yog-Sothoth, so he was able to summon him successfully, and was killed by the Lord of Tindalos. The entangled Yog-Sothoth naturally could not continue to descend, and Duanmuhuai took this opportunity to quickly erode the "terminal" and successfully cut off her connection with Yog-Sothoth.

but………

This is really tricky stuff.

Looking at the sleeping girl lying in front of him, Duanmu Huai frowned. Although he had closed the "terminal", the girl's soul was already connected to Yog-Sothoth. To put it simply, if Yog-Sothoth is the pool, then the girl is the faucet, and now the two are connected by a water pipe. Even if you break the faucet, it will only cause the water to flow out of the pipe faster.

But seal off the faucet...

"It's really troublesome. I can't kill her, and I can't keep her alive. Well, let me see if there is anything useful..."

Duanmu Huai muttered and opened the inventory. In order to prepare for a rainy day, he got a lot of magic props in the world of Faerun. He didn't know if there were any in them... Oh, sure enough, there were still some.

Duanmu Huai took out his right hand and took out a crystal prism. This was the trophy he got from the Shadow King's treasure chest after killing him. It was an artifact that could specify a target to perform the confinement technique. Of course, not everyone will fall victim to this, but as long as they are imprisoned, it should be fine. I heard that the confinement technique will completely freeze the flow of time like putting the subject in a stasis chamber. From the current point of view, this is not a bad idea.

Duanmu Huai took a breath, then looked at the sleeping girl, and raised the crystal prism in his hand.

"Come in you."

As Duanmuhuai's words fell, the next moment the girl disappeared without a trace, as if she had never appeared. At the same time, in the crystal prism of Duanmuhuai, there was the silhouette of a sleeping girl. It looks like a crystal sculpture.

"That's it for now."

Looking at the girl imprisoned in the crystal prism in his hand, Duanmuhuai nodded with satisfaction and then put it away.

Although it is sealed, it is not useless. In any case, it is also a channel connected to Yog-Sothoth. If you encounter the evil god in the future, you may be able to use it.

But before that... just to be on the safe side, you'd better just sleep with me.

Putting away the crystal prism, Duanmu Huai looked around. The town was completely weathered at this moment. Perhaps because the core that maintained the magic workshop was destroyed, the small town that originally seemed lively has now turned into a desert. Like the thousand-year-old ancient city, only some ruins remain.

Thinking of this, Duanmuhuai stretched out his hand again.

"In the name of the Command Seal, come back, Medea, Irisviel."

As Duanmuhuai's words fell, the next moment the two figures appeared next to Duanmuhuai again, staring at him uneasily.

"MASTER, are you okay?"

"I'm fine."

Facing the worried inquiries from the two men, Duanmu Huai shook his head.

"Medea, Irisviel, please investigate this place and see if there is anything missing. Although I think there should be no problem, but you should try to be careful. This magician himself is not a big deal. , but he has caused trouble, so you should be careful."

"yes."

A magic workshop that had stopped functioning was no problem for Medea and Irisviel. Soon, they found the core area of ​​the magic workshop and unexpectedly discovered the magician’s corpse.

Fortunately, this idiot had the habit of writing a diary, which allowed Duanmu Huai to know the whole story.

This magician was once a nobleman. Like other magicians, he also longed to open the vortex of the source and enter the inside of the source. Because of this, in order to find a way, this magician also wandered around the world when he was young. Then during the Revolutionary War, he went to the American continent as a British soldier and arrived in a small town called Salem.

After investigating the witch hunting incident in that small town, the magician came up with the idea of ​​using religious beliefs to lay a spiritual foundation and open the root vortex. He found the surviving descendants of a clan that was targeted for witch hunting at the time, and brought them back to England. He used necromancy to force it to be in tune with the witch back then, and then imprisoned it in the crystal, and then used it as the core to create this town.

Of course, as Irisviel said, this is simply not something that ordinary magicians can do. Even the Twelve Monarchs of the Clock Tower would find it difficult to perform a magic ritual of this level. But this magician is different. He found a mysterious magic book from the ruins of the witch's residence in the small town of Salem. It was with this book that he completed this great undertaking.

And that book is...

"The Book of the Dead..."

Looking at the book handed over by Medea, Duanmu Huai felt a stomachache. Although he had guessed it long ago, he was still speechless when he actually saw the book.

And of course, the idiot magician didn't know what he was holding at all, and eventually went crazy and committed suicide, leaving only such a self-operating magic workshop - that is to say, even if the ritual was really successful in the end, he would not be able to see the Root Vortex.

However, the witch in this world actually possessed the Book of the Dead, which shows that the witch's trial was probably not groundless, and most of it was her own fault.

"………………"

Duanmu Huai took the Book of the Dead handed over by Medea, and he didn't even have the interest to look at it. He just raised it up, and then black flames appeared instantly, and the book was burned to ashes in the blink of an eye.

"How is the spiritual vein?"

"The workshop has been cleared, and the spiritual vein will continue to flow downward. The Fulvegi family should not have to worry."

"That's good. Remind Fiore to ask the Fulvegi family to monitor this land. Although it is now resolved, it is better to keep an eye on it just in case."

Duanmu Huai collected his thoughts and stood up.

"Let's go."

"By the way, MASTER, your Command Spell..."

"Oh, I forgot."

Looking at the traces of the Command Spell that had disappeared on the back of his hand, Duanmu Huai patted his forehead, and then he raised his hand--soon, a red light flashed, and three Command Spells appeared on the back of Duanmu Huai's hand again.

That's right, the Command Spell is nothing more than a condensation of huge magic power. Ordinary magicians do not have such power to charge the Command Spell, so they can only be thrown away after use. But for Duanmu Huai, this is just like a rechargeable battery. Just recharge it after use.

Simple and convenient, not a big deal.

Of course, for Irisviel and Medea, the Command Spells are not just tools to restrain them, they can also be used to play some fun games - for example, using the Command Spells to order that they cannot go before obtaining permission, or using the Command Spells to increase sensitivity several times... Well, I have to say, it is quite exciting and interesting.

In this way, the spiritual vein incident came to an end, and Fiore also agreed to Duanmu Huai's request, saying that she would send the artificial people of the Fulvegi family to monitor the ruins day and night to avoid problems. Chaldea also confirmed that the abnormal point was eliminated, which also meant that the danger of the world being destroyed again disappeared.

However... the Animusphia family has not made any moves.

To be honest, Duanmu Huai was a little anxious. He even began to consider building Chaldea in the name of the El-Melloi family in Antarctica... But there must be a reason. The reason for building Chaldea is to observe the past and the future. This is a topic in the astronomy class. The El-Melloi family is not good at astrology and divination. What excuse can be used to easily obtain the consent of the clock tower?

Just as Duanmu Huai was thinking about these questions, he received a call from Lanis. When he followed Lanis to the room, he unexpectedly found that a thin young man was hanging upside down on the ceiling, shaking left and right.

"When did you start learning how to kidnap again?"

"Oh, brother, this is not kidnapping, I just invited him to be my guest."

"This is not kidnapping... You've already hung him here, who is he?"

"Oh? I thought brother would know him."

"Me? Know him?"

Hearing what Lenis said, Duanmu Huai frowned, then he turned around and walked in front of the young man, lowered his head to look at him, and the latter saw Duanmu Huai, and was immediately frightened and his face turned pale and his whole body trembled.

"Hmm......"

Duanmu Huai looked carefully, then shook his head.

"I don't know this kind of long-haired pretty boy, but it does seem a little familiar."

"Oh? Then how about this?"

While talking, Lenis gestured, and then a servant next to him reached out and covered the young man's hair. This time, looking at this useless face again, Duanmu Huai seemed to finally think of something. He stared at the young man carefully, then clapped his hands, as if he finally remembered it.

"You are... RIDER's Master?"
