Chapter 132 The Magical Use of Suggestion
Are you hurt?
That... Chris... No, Qianmian, who used the power of Chris's relic, was actually injured? !
Not only Qianmian himself was shocked, but Maru and Carol also looked incredulous.
The key reason why [Illusionary Soul Lock] ranks among the top among many special relics is that under certain conditions, it can allow the holder to ignore any damage! And this specific condition is to lock oneself in an illusory state.
The holder in a virtual state cannot be attacked by anything real.
On the contrary, the holder of the illusion state can choose to attack others.
Of course, this is something that only the original relics can do. The relics simulated by Qianmian are only one tenth of the original ones. Once you exit the virtual state, it will take a long time to re-enter the virtual state.
But even so, she should be invincible in her virtual state!
Why was she able to be attacked by Li Qi? "...What did you do?!"
Feeling the pain on his cheek, Qianmian suppressed his contempt and looked at Li Qi warily.
However, Li Qi did not give Qianmian the proper response. No emotion could be seen on his calm expression. Only his fingers were moving.
The silk threads were flying in the air. Although his true form could not be seen due to the high speed, Qianmian could still feel the silk threads passing through his illusory body.
Swoosh——
Another special attack passed through Qianmian's body, and this time a long and narrow wound appeared on her exposed arm.
This wound is deeper than the one on the face! "!?"
It's like this again! If the first attack could be considered as the opponent's luck, then the second attack was enough to confirm that the opponent had indeed mastered the method to attack Qianmian in the illusory state!
And judging from the second wound, he was even gradually becoming proficient in this method!
The first attack only left a shallow wound, but the second attack left such a deep scar on the arm.
If the third attack can still hit and leave a wound on Qianmian, even if the wound will not continue to deepen, as long as it hits a vital part, such as the neck, Qianmian will definitely die! 'No, we have to think of a way...'
In times of crisis, Qianmian immediately began to think about countermeasures.
For Qianmian, things have not yet reached the most dangerous point.
Judging from the wounds on his body, although Li Qi has a way to injure Qianmian, this method does not always succeed.
As long as he could find a way to deal with it before the third attack hit him, Qianmian would be out of danger! His thoughts were spinning wildly, and his eyes fell on Carol and Maru not far away.
At that moment, Qianmian's eyes lit up and he rushed towards Carol at a high speed! Carol was still surprised that Li Qi could actually hurt Qianmian. When she saw the damn Qianmian rushing towards her, she was stunned for a moment and understood the other party's thoughts.
Qianmian wanted to get close to Carol so that Li Qi would be cautious and give up the tactics that could attack on a large scale!
Carol laughed out of anger at the thought that she was being used as a hostage by the other party.
Did he really think she was an easy target? Carol was angry, but she also knew that she had no effective way to deal with Qianmian in his illusory state.
He immediately prepared to retreat temporarily to avoid delaying Li Qi's attack.
But Carol soon discovered that she didn't have to worry about affecting Li Qi.
Although Qianmian's reaction speed was fast, it was still a little slower than Li Qi's.
Qianmian was about to reach Carol, and his hands were almost touching her, but when he noticed Carol's gaze, Qianmian suddenly froze.
Because she saw some pity in Carol's eyes.
mercy?
Why do we have such emotions?
Qianmian didn’t quite understand. Before she could figure it out, she felt a sense of weightlessness coming from her body.
My body felt lighter, as if I had lost something.
The illusory body fell to the ground, and waves of severe pain came from the lower body.
Qianmian turned his head and looked behind him, his pupils dilated instantly.
Behind her, the legs that were supposed to be connected to her body were completely disconnected from the middle of her thighs and fell to the ground.
Blood flowed along the broken parts and Qianmian's body lying on the ground.
The contrast between the bright red blood and the grayish white surroundings was so eye-catching and glaring. The intense pain also distorted Qianmian's face.
It was not until then that she understood the meaning of Carol's look just now.
Li Qi actually cut off her legs! "When exactly... did it happen..."
Qianmian didn't understand when she was hit and when Li Qi cut off her legs.
What is even more incomprehensible is that since Li Qi had a way to hurt her, why didn't he just take her life directly?
"The moment you pounce, you've already lost."
Li Qi stood in front of Qianmian and looked down at the woman lying on the ground.
The way he was able to attack Qianmian was actually not complicated.
Li Qi noticed that when she was in the illusory state, her body was not floating in the air, nor did it sink into the ground.
This proves that in Qianmian's subconscious mind, even if she is in a virtual state, she will not sink into the ground and her clothes will not fall off.
By judging this point, Li Qi determined that Qianmian's illusory state might be related to her subconscious.
As long as Qianmian subconsciously believes that something should exist, it will not be affected by her illusory state.
And Li Qi happened to master a magic that could work on 'ordinary people'.
'The art of suggestion'.
This is the magic that Li Qi mastered after he was promoted to the second-level magician.
By pulling the silk thread and applying suggestion to it, Qianmian's consciousness would ignore the silk thread and regard it as an existing part of her body.
By being able to do this, Li Qi will be able to cause effective damage to Qianmian.
But there is a problem with this move, that is, Li Qi's magic needs to touch the opponent's body to be successfully performed.
At first, he was not sure whether his thread attack on Qianmian, who was in an illusory state, could be considered as "contact".
But this time, goddess of luck was on Li Qi's side.
Although the contact sensation transmitted by each attack is very weak, this kind of "contact" does exist.
With the accumulation of little by little, Li Qi successfully used the technique of suggestion, making Qianmian's body think that the silk thread was just like her clothes.
So Li Qi hurt Qianmian.
From the small wound at the beginning to the big wound.
When Qianmian tried to approach Carol, he attacked her flaws and cut off her legs.
The above is the whole process of Li Qi’s battle with Qianmian.
What really defeated Qianmian was actually her own subconscious mind.
Pulling the silk thread, Li Qi controlled Adam to come in front of Qianmian. Adam placed the blade of his right hand on Qianmian's neck, as if he was ready to fall at any time.
Li Qi stared at Qianmian expressionlessly and asked softly, "Do you have any last words?"
"Wait...wait! You can't kill me!!"
Qianmian didn't dare to bet whether Adam, controlled by Li Qi, could also cause harm to her like Li Qi.
When she saw the murderous intent in the boy's eyes, Qianmian panicked. She raised her hand and said to Li Qi:
"Don't you want to know why your mother entered the sea of fog? Aren't you curious about how we turned the Tanwu family into fog beasts?"
"Not curious."
Reacher answered instantly, and Adam's blade was about to fall.
Qianmian's voice became sharper, and she stepped back and screamed, "Maru! Carol!! Why don't you stop him! Do you want Rubino to be completely swallowed by the fog area?!"
"Li Qi... spare her life first and see what she has to say."
At the critical moment, Malu grabbed Li Qi's wrist and asked him to stop temporarily.
Although Maru and Carol also want to kill Thousand Faces, he cannot die now.
We need to figure out how the Light Chasing Society turned the Mist Explorers into fog beasts, how they pulled the city of Rubino into the fog area, and what they want to do with the relic next to them that surpasses the special-grade relic.
Before the problem is solved, they need to save Qianmian's life.
Li Qi stopped instantly, looked at Malu, and then took back control of Adam.
In fact, Li Qi had already heard a general idea from Jinghua about how to turn the safe zone into a fog zone.
According to the Light Chasing Society's theory, the fog area has always existed, but it is separated from the real world.
When barriers exist, the safe zone and the fog zone will be clearly distinguished.
When the barriers disappear, the fog area will appear.
What Zhu Guang will do is to destroy the balance point between the safe zone and the fog zone, allowing the fog zone to descend directly.
But Jinghua had no idea how it would happen.
There is a strong emphasis on division of labor and cooperation within the Light Chasing Society. Jinghua is responsible for spying on the kingdom's intelligence, while making the fog area descend into a safe zone is the job of other departments.
The only thing Jinghua knew was that the Zhuguang Society had developed some kind of device, or relic, and it was this "relic" that eliminated the barrier between the fog area and the safe zone.
Qianmian must have brought this relic with him before coming to the association. What Li Qi wants to know now is the location of this relic.
And...the duration of this foggy area.
This time the fog area lasted too long.
According to Maru's request, Qianmian changed back to his original appearance, and Maru took away the pure white mask on his face that he used to change into other people's appearances.
The thousand faces beneath the mask is actually an ordinary female face.
Her appearance was not outstanding, her figure was ordinary, and she was even a little fat, which was completely different from her appearance after the transformation.
When Carol saw her, she immediately started to mock her: "Oh, no wonder you always pick beautiful women, it turns out you are so ugly yourself."
“…”
Qianmian's mouth twitched slightly, and he didn't speak to Carol.
She sat on the ground with a pale face. When Malu was bandaging her to stop the bleeding, before anyone could ask, she spoke directly:
"The method to turn the safe zone into a fog zone is a special relic... It is rated level one and its ability is... to pull the fog zone to the safe zone."
"I know this. Just tell me the location of the relic."
Li Qi asked directly.
Qianmian was a little surprised:
"…You knew? How did you know?"
Li Qi didn't say anything, but just showed Qianmian the ring on his right hand.
Jinghua's mirage ring was worn on the index finger of his right hand.
When she saw the ring, Qianmian understood everything. She curled her lips in disdain and said:
"I was wondering why I hadn't seen that woman for several days. Turns out... you had killed her a long time ago."
