Chapter 737 Aleister's Frappuccino!
Count Dawn waved his hand casually, and a mirror shone with rainbow light.
It was the light flowing from the mirror. As if a radiant object were reflected in front of it, something appeared in the mirror... but in front of it was nothingness.
As it suddenly burst out with a ball of light, a person really appeared in front of it.
He was a middle-aged man, neatly dressed and with a serious face. He wore the uniform of a butler, and a crow with blood-red pupils perched on his shoulder. After being teleported, he methodically adjusted his tie and said nothing.
Earl Dawn's pupils contracted slightly.
——Because he vaguely felt a sense of crisis.
The middle-aged man before him looked like an ordinary person, without a trace of Daoist power. However, his intuition kept warning him.
This person seemed to be hidden in a shadow... Any means of investigation would be meaningless to him.
...Could it be an adapter?
This thought came to Earl Dawn's mind, but he quickly rejected it.
The only adaptor who could make him sense danger was a fifth-level assassin. However, even if an assassin of this level did not belong to the Hawkeye Organization, he must have a close connection with it.
But Heinrich is an evil vampire. Although he loves talent, he won't recruit an assassin... Isn't he afraid that this man is a master assassin in the Hawkeye organization in disguise?
However, only those at the fifth level who have adapted to the Dao are adept at concealing their extraordinary traces...
Therefore, he is either an assassin of Hawkeye, but not under the command of Count Leipzig; or he has some extraordinary item on him that can hide the fluctuations of the power of the Tao - and the one who needs to cover up the traces is nothing more than an extraordinary person who transcends or loves.
——He comes with ill intentions.
The moment Earl Dawn saw the visitor, he regretted inviting him in.
At the same time, he felt a faint murderous intent towards the Mirror Demon he had contracted - that guy probably deliberately did not mention the other party's strength and identity.
Haha, do you really want to escape from me?
He made up his mind that he would activate the contract and severely torture the mirror demon that had become dishonest again.
At the same time, he also awakened the winter demon sleeping in his body.
His pupils turned purple for a moment, but a friendly smile appeared on his face: "Oh, Your Excellency, you are so polite...
"Didn't you say you'd be back in Leipzig in a few days? Then we'd have to hold a banquet to welcome the Count..."
What he meant was to warn the other party that "Count Leipzig will be back soon."
If this person was not Count Leipzig's man, he would have been somewhat hesitant if he mentioned it this way; if he was Count Leipzig's man, then he would show goodwill - in any case, he would never mention Viscount Conlai who was sealed in the mirror by him.
Earl Dawn said this before he finally lowered his head to look at the ice sculpture of the girl who was blocked behind by the middle-aged man dressed as a butler.
It was an incredibly gorgeous, colorful, rainbow-colored ice sculpture.
A young girl who looked to be in her early twenties was kneeling on the ground, with her hands folded, praying devoutly.
Her face was exquisitely beautiful, radiating a strange sense of sacred tranquility, while her tightly closed eyes conveyed a faint sense of despair, a silent weeping.
Earl Dawn widened his eyes slightly, a hint of amazement flashing in his eyes: "This is simply art... No, this is great art!"
He subconsciously stretched out his right hand and gently touched the cold surface of the ice sculpture.
Because from his perspective, he could see clearly that there was a soul frozen inside.
From the faint light of the path, it can be seen that the girl seems to be a transcendent of the fourth level.
Her soul was still alive, but seemed to have fallen into a special state, filled with the power of the Twilight Path, and entered into complete stillness.
Earl Dawn had heard of similar situations - it was said that the elves would be transformed into amber due to the influence of the power of dusk, and turned into colorful crystal sculptures, while at the same time they were still alive.
He began to believe that this was really a gift from Count Leipzig.
Of course... apart from the gift, it's more like a warning.
—As if to warn him that he had mastered the technology that could seal the Transcendents inside!
As everyone knows, starting from the fourth energy level, the demonologist will advance to the demon incarnation. Once the demon incarnation is killed, the demon in the body will leak out.
From this perspective, high-level demon scholars are actually very difficult to kill... If you kill them, you will immediately have to fight against a powerful phantom demon that is even more difficult to fight against, even more difficult to kill, and in full health.
The girl who was frozen in ice was a fourth-level transcendent. As long as she remained sealed, the demon within her body would not leak out.
……snort.
Earl Dawn raised the corner of his mouth slightly and withdrew his hand.
So that's what it means.
The old vampire was warning me... He had found a way to deal with the winter demon in me and could he seal me away?
Was this his intention, or Hong Xiang's? Well, considering the dusk-colored glow, it's not impossible that the Ziggurat was involved...
Earl Dawn thought rapidly, searching for his enemies—but unfortunately, he had lived too long. In this century-plus, he had made too many enemies, so he couldn't immediately figure out who was responsible.
But he continued to contemplate the ice sculpture, maintaining his expression of joy and wonder, and couldn't stop praising it, "It's so beautiful! I think we should hold an art exhibition. Invite all our old friends over and let them see this magnificent and fantastic art!"
——The implication is that you'd better consider the cost of angering the "Society".
Faced with the ability to seal the devil's incarnation, even if the major academies are used to fighting each other, they will surely be able to unite now.
There is a saying among the Xing people: no one in the world can resist the united Xing people.
This statement was also circulated among demonologists. The entire Star Antimony Society did not dare to oppose a truly united society.
But the middle-aged man just looked at him silently, without moving.
Earl Dawn was stunned for a moment, and his heart skipped a beat.
Without thinking, he drew the power of the winter demon in his body and raised his hand -
He saw several transparent and invisible air blades flying in front of him, suddenly cutting the middle-aged man in the butler's uniform into pieces!
Accompanied by screams and the hoarse cries of crows, black feathers flew around and the man's limbs were instantly shattered to the ground!
——Winter Demon.
It is the twilight demon that symbolizes silence, death and decay, and the death of all things!
Even the Moon Child, who is difficult to kill and possesses a certain degree of immortality, will eventually freeze and shatter into pieces under the Winter Devil's devastating breath!
"……etc?"
At this moment, Earl Dawn suddenly felt something was wrong again.
If this man had really been torn to pieces by his winter demon... his limbs should have withered and decayed, not been so full of vitality, with blood flowing all over the ground—
If you think about it carefully, have Viscount Conlai and Mirror Demon been silent since just now?
This is... an illusion!
If you want to break the illusion, you must break the most prominent point!
The most outstanding thing is——
Earl Dawn frowned and immediately reached out his hand to press the ice sculpture.
An invisible and intangible force then seeped in—the ice sculpture that was touched was shattered into pieces along with the girl inside!
“Uhh—”
With a scream, the world before his eyes suddenly became colorful, but then shattered.
Earl Dawn felt his brain suddenly become clear.
When he opened his eyes again, he saw that the girl in the ice sculpture had lost her life and had broken into several dried pieces inside the ice sculpture.
The fantastical and gorgeous ice sculpture of the girl was still intact, but it no longer emitted that breathtaking rainbow light. Instead, it became an ordinary ice sculpture.
——It is obvious that the one using the illusion is the girl hiding in the ice sculpture!
At this moment, the middle-aged housekeeper looked astonished: "How could it be..."
"Hmph, I knew it..."
Earl Dawn raised his head proudly and snorted coldly: "It's hundreds of years too early to use such a trick in front of me!
"—Do you know the kind of suffering a demonologist must endure and the vigilance he must maintain in order to defeat the demon that harbors malicious intent day and night? Even a moment of hesitation will lead to eternal damnation and the annihilation of the soul! In front of me, any abnormality is so clearly visible!"
At this moment, the mirror demon he had contracted appeared in the huge mirror.
Her face was full of flattering and fawning smiles at the moment: "My Master, why do you say that..."
"Oh? Did I say something wrong?"
Earl Dawn's lips curled up slightly, and he tightened his collar with a reserved look. He said slowly but majestically, "You released these two people... I believe you already know the price, right?"
"No, no... Master, please! Don't—"
As the Mirror Demon begged for mercy in fear, Earl Dawn let out a cruel and triumphant laugh.
——And at this moment.
In the real world.
Earl Dawn maintained an expression of amazement and touched the ice sculpture, and had already turned into an ice sculpture.
As the "shell" of the girl's ice sculpture melted and evaporated, Aleister opened his eyes and slowly stood up. The crow that had been standing on the honey badger's shoulder also flew up and landed on Aleister's shoulder.
The moment the honey badger's shield was lost, the powerful force that permeated the crow caused Viscount Conley, who was still sealed in the mirror and hanging upside down, to suddenly tremble violently.
The incomparable power of the path of love, like an irresistible ocean, constantly washes over his consciousness.
“Please…”
He looked at Earl Dawn who had turned into an ice sculpture, then looked at the terrifying crow, and was about to speak for help.
But at this moment, he suddenly lost consciousness and fell into a coma in an instant.
"It is indeed... great [art]."
Aleister glanced at Viscount Conley, who was unconscious with his neck tilted in the mirror, and said slowly.
——This is the Phantom Card that she sealed not long ago, a spell card made with "Sea Bride" as the material!
[Spell Card: Star Ice (Art)]
[Required: Water 4]
【Action, Summon, Non-Contact】
[Effect: Summons a colorful star ice, briefly shaping it and leaving it there for a while. Anyone who looks directly at the star ice and attempts to destroy it or understand it will fall into an increasingly deep hallucination; those caught in the hallucination by this effect will be frozen; those completely frozen by this effect cannot voluntarily escape the hallucination, even if the star ice no longer exists.]
The star ice summoned by Aleister silently froze a fifth-level extraordinary being!
