Chapter 408: Following in Clown’s footsteps

“Boom, boom, boom”

Eliza was awakened by a rapid knock on the door. She frowned slightly, with flames of anger in her eyes.

No one would feel good if they were woken up just after falling asleep.

"Ma'am, there is a problem with the airship. Lord Plimpton invites you to the observation room."

It was the voice of her personal maid, Andy, and her tone was filled with anxiety.

"Right away," Eliza responded, quickly got up and washed her face with cold water, then hurried out:

"What happened, do you know?"

Andy bowed slightly and said, "Madam, the airship was attacked by an unknown entity. You will know it when you get to the observation room."

The maid led the way in front, and the two walked quickly towards the viewing room.

From time to time on the road, they met guards who were in a hurry. They bowed slightly to Eliza and then hurried past.

Arriving at the viewing room, Eliza saw a very uncomfortable scene, and then her eyes became blurred.

On the glass, there were ghosts with blurry faces wriggling, and the blood-red color of their surfaces stimulated people's nerves.

Although there was no sound coming from outside the window, she could feel the spirit's desperate cry, as if asking her for help, and she couldn't help feeling pity.

A thought arose from the bottom of her heart that if she opened the window, she could let these spirits rest in peace.

Suddenly, the pair of mind-brightening pendants hanging around her neck emitted a faint glow. At the same time, a powerful cold force burst out from her sea of ​​consciousness, and her eyes immediately regained clarity.

Eliza paused as she was about to take a step. She looked carefully and saw only a thin layer of red mist floating outside the window.

Everything that just happened disappeared without a trace. It must have been an illusion in her consciousness.

"You got rid of the influence much earlier than I expected."

Purinton spoke kindly, then he turned around and said to Lina:

"My dear sister, did you see it? No one reminded Eliza, but she was mentally affected for a very short time. She just took one step."

They had just made a bet to see how many steps Eliza would take when she was mentally affected.

He felt that Eliza's long stay with Crown could subtly influence his mental resistance.

The other party must have also learned the Golden Light Mantra, which can increase some mental resistance again.

He gambled that Eliza would be able to react within two steps and escape the impact.

Lina is hostile to Eliza and thinks that her current state is very inflated, so she bets that she will not be able to break free from her controlled state until she takes more than three steps.

Lina snorted: "Huh, I know, I'll give it to you later."

After saying that, she turned her head and looked away.

Eliza raised her eyebrows and said coldly, "I don't like the way you two play games. Since the airship is under attack, it is now in a state of war. It's not good for you to treat it so frivolously, right?"

After saying this, she suddenly felt the changes in herself compared to before.

When she was still staying at Dehaar Manor, she was sometimes teased, or like just now, her behavior was used as a bet. At that time, she just smiled kindly and pretended not to care.

Do you really not care? Of course I do.

However, her parents died early and no one supported her, so she could only laugh it off, but no one saw the tears she shed when she turned around.

Now, the actions of the Plimpton siblings reminded her of a scene that she once disliked, and this time she immediately expressed her displeasure.

"Huh," Lina turned her head and looked at Eliza in surprise. Her behavior at this moment was very different from before.

Purinton was slightly stunned, then quickly reacted and said:

"We have no ill intentions, if you don't like what we did, we will not do it again.

I’m sorry if I made you feel uncomfortable.”

The person in front of him was no longer the person he once knew.

The other party has a new support, and this support is someone he will never be able to surpass in a short period of time. He doesn't even know if he has the possibility of surpassing the other party's husband in his lifetime.

He turned his head and looked at his sister.

Lina understood what her brother meant and muttered reluctantly, "I'm sorry."

He said "I'm sorry", but his tone did not mean he was apologetic.

Eliza did not expect these two people who had always been the family's favorites to sincerely apologize to her. She just stated her position and told them that she did not like what they had just done.

"It's okay, it won't happen again."

She looked at Purinton and asked, "What happened? Is there a monster that can manipulate illusions following the airship?"

Since the report said that the airship was attacked, it must have been targeted by some monster or evil spirit.

"I don't think it was done by a monster. I can say it wasn't a living being."

Purinton took two steps forward, approached the window, and continued, "This airship is one of the most luxurious airships in the family. Its skin is engraved with a very advanced defensive magic array.

I have confirmed with the airship captain that the magic circle has suffered some kind of corrosive attack, and this attack hit the skin very evenly.

If it was an attack by some creature, it would not look like this."

Eliza frowned: "I have never encountered this situation before, what could be the reason?"

“There are two possibilities. The first is that we have entered a special area where the laws of nature are not friendly to living beings.

The second possibility is that some unknown changes have occurred on today's red moon night.

If it is the second case, the entire continent will be in big trouble."

The source of the changes in Red Moon Night comes from the red moon in the sky. If it is confirmed that the red moon has undergone new changes, it will have a huge impact on the existing situation.

The magic circle that wraps the airship is very expensive and can withstand the bombardment of fifth-level power.

Such a powerful defensive force has been eroded by the laws of the outside world. If the protective magic array in the city is not turned to its maximum power, some accidents will definitely occur tonight.

What worries Plimpton the most is that the changes in Red Moon are just the beginning, and the situation will get worse in the later stages.

If that is the case, all forces will have to consider tightening their control and concentrating the population as much as possible.

Eliza looked out the window, and another illusion appeared in her eyes: a large number of spirits gathered outside, with no eyeballs in their eye sockets, only two black holes.

She felt like she was being stared at closely, and her body immediately had a stress response, as if countless ants were crawling on her scalp.

The hairs on the back of my head and neck stood on end, and a chill surged upward from my tailbone.

"It's endless!"

Eliza cast the Heart Cleansing Spell, but felt uneasy again, so she took out a high-quality Heart Cleansing Potion from her space ring and swallowed it.

The raw material of this potion is the high-quality Sunfire Liquid that Crown visualized using the fifth-level Golden Light Mantra. After the potion is made, no water is added.

The effect of the advanced potion was certainly extraordinary. She immediately felt the powerful force of the Taiyin Law flowing through her body, and the illusion in her eyes disappeared immediately.

Not only that, her body surface actually emitted a soft silver light, which passed through the glass to the outside and dispersed the red mist.

Because the drug was so strong, she felt as if she had swallowed several pieces of eternal ice, and the blood in her body seemed to be frozen.

Plimpton felt a chill emanating from Eliza and spreading in all directions, which immediately made him shiver.

Unlike those gloomy pollution laws, Plimpton felt that his thinking had become much faster and his thoughts were very clear. He did not have the confused feeling when he was shrouded by the pollution laws.

"What did you just drink?"

Lina was very curious. Just now, the two of them were discussing what to do next and how to break the current deadlock.

After studying for a while, I still found nothing.

"Of course it's potion!" Eliza waved the rune crystal bottle in her hand.

"I knew it was a potion. I asked what it was and why it was so powerful!"

There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!

Lina curled her lips. She knew of course that what the other party drank was a potion, but it was obvious that this was a potion she had never heard of before, which could actually dispel the power of the law.

Only the power of law can fight against the power of law. This is the consensus of the extraordinary people.

She had never heard of a potion that could dispel the law of pollution. If this potion could be popularized, the evil god would not be so scary.

Because according to records, the evil god's most powerful abilities are the law of pollution and extremely strong vitality.

As long as they cannot be killed in a short period of time, they will slowly be contaminated by the evil laws, and by the time the fighters find out, they are already on the verge of death.

It is said that at the beginning of the last era, many gods were severely corrupted because they were not aware of their enemies' abilities in advance.

They either died on the battlefield or were transformed into followers by some evil god, turning from guardians of humanity into accomplices in the massacre of humanity. It has to be said that this is truly amazing.

Eliza explained: "This potion is the Heart Purifying Potion, and the reason why it is so effective is because the raw materials are good enough.

If it were to be given a grade, I think it could be considered a top-level fifth-tier potion.

In its current state, the airship cannot continue to fly. I suggest that it be forced to land, and then use the golden light potion to spray a layer of spiritual defense film on the airship. "

The airship will not arrive in Hamers City until tomorrow afternoon. The location they are in now is a barren mountain area.

She just tried to contact Crowne, but found that she couldn't reach him at all. Besides, distant water cannot quench immediate thirst, so they can only rely on themselves.

Purinton nodded: "This is the only way. I will go and inform the airship captain to find a wide place to land.

The wilds on a red moon night are extremely dangerous, and the creatures in the wilds will inevitably become ferocious and crazy. Everyone must be as careful as possible and must not let down their guard at all."

Hammers City.

The red fog hung low, like a pot lid pressing down on the city.

A blazing sacred fire was burning on the bell tower, but the range of the sacred fire's illumination was suppressed to only half of the usual range.

The meeting hall of the central church was filled with noise.

"Sir, several polluters have appeared on Wind Chime Street. They have been cleaned up, and the patrol team is stepping up its operations to ensure that no one escapes."

"Sir, there are also polluters on Plantagenet Street. Patrols have been dispatched."

“.”

Fanny rubbed her temples with her two thumbs. The red moon's polluting power suddenly increased, catching everyone off guard.

There have been many cases of sudden mutations in the town of Hamers tonight.

All the Crusaders gathered together to participate in the defense of the city.

Compared with the achievements, the casualties among the residents are even more shocking.

At this time, Del walked into the meeting room, came to his wife and said, "The power of the protection array has been adjusted to the maximum, and the situation outside has stabilized."

He wiped the sweat from his forehead and continued:

"The pollution law appeared without any signs. I don't know if it's a special case today or because of the influence of the red moon. Have you found anything?"

He carefully looked for the cause of the incident, but found no useful information.

Fanny shook her head: “I have been dealing with trivial matters and have no time to investigate.

By the way, have you contacted Crown?"

Crown is heading to Lorente Town tonight. The two places are not far apart, only about 40 kilometers.

If he flew at full speed, he would definitely reach the designated locations of the two towns within ten minutes.

On weekdays, they communicate with Crown through the Golden Light Dao Seed, and the two sides can establish communication within a hundred kilometers.

Tonight, the contact between the two parties was completely cut off, which made her very anxious.

“No contact.”

Nick shook his head and said:

"The power of the red mist's laws suppressed the communication between Dao seeds. This has never happened before. Our connection with Clown has been completely cut off.

But there is no need to worry, you know how strong Clown is, and those enemies are no match for him.

The protection array of Hammers City has been turned to its maximum power, and the safety of the city can be guaranteed."

I'm not worried about Clown, I'm worried about our Fanny showed a bitter smile, Clown's achievements were brilliant, killing creatures of the same level was as easy as drinking cold water.

Even if he is surrounded by a large number of enemies, he can use his flying ability to leave. Whether to fight or stop, the initiative is in his hands.

Others do not have the strength of Clown, and can only rely on magic circles to deal with the enemies, so their killing efficiency is naturally greatly reduced.

Nick said: “After the red fog disappears, I will contact Crown immediately and inform him of the current situation in Hammers City.

If both parties check the information in their hands, they can draw a conclusion and see whether it is the influence of the red moon.

If it is really the Red Moon that caused the impact, what are we going to do?"

The red moon comes on time once a month, and even if they want to avoid it, they cannot.

It is necessary to make plans in advance so as not to be in a panic when things happen.

"It's not what we want to do, but what Crown wants to do."

Fanny patted her husband on the shoulder and said softly, "We just need to follow Crown's footsteps closely and we can solve all the problems we encounter.

"Don't you realize that as long as we follow Clown, we can win even if we face an opponent that seems to have no chance of winning."
