The trains that run on the land of Ilufu have a solid defensive array that resists magic and physical attacks, especially anti-teleportation. Otherwise, wouldn't it be possible for anyone to teleport to the train at will? What's the point of waiting for the train and selling tickets?
In addition to the defensive array, there is also a law enforcement team on each train to deal with various accidents and incidents that may arise during the journey.
Jane Fairbairns and her thirteen companions quietly occupied the entire carriage and rewrote the inscriptions on the defensive array of the carriage. They were well prepared and therefore neither Sigourney nor the law enforcement team guarding the train could detect their secret moves.
Therefore, the destruction of the carriage should have caused a lot of noise, which could have attracted the attention of the law enforcement team, but at this moment it became silent. The roof of the car was like a piece of thin paper and was easily torn open by the black-robed wizard.
They originally planned to use potions to control Ivan and the others' minds, and then deal with Sigourney. You know, once a vampire appears in the sun, even a child is enough to kill him, so there is nothing to be afraid of.
If the plan goes well, they might be able to kill the notorious Fallen Elves on this train without alerting anyone.
But something went wrong.
The small silver fish that had been added with magic potion was actually identified by an unknown boy.
Ivan and Yelena were not controlled, and subsequent fighting was inevitable.
Even if the black-robed wizard was confident that he could kill the two young wizards quickly, the fluctuations of the battle could not be hidden, and would inevitably attract the law enforcement team on the train. Then it would be impossible for them to escape unscathed.
There will definitely be casualties.
In order to avoid any accidents, they tried their best and even disrupted and confused the divination results of the gray-robed wizard Nans. However, they did not expect that at the last moment, it was still ruined by an unknown young man.
Although the twelve people behind Jane were prepared to sacrifice when they joined this operation, the casualties that could have been avoided became inevitable because of the boy's words. It must be said that the person they hated the most at this time, besides Sigourney, was probably Ash.
After hearing Jane's order of "quick victory", they used their brewing magic to attack the three people, with the focus of the attack first being the black coffin and secondly being Ash.
Grind the person into ashes.
It’s over!
Yelena felt the surging elemental fluctuations in the air, her face pale, unable to stop it! Even ten more layers of "Shield Spell" couldn't stop it! Who are those people under the cloak? Are they all high-level wizards!
It’s over!
Ivan's stomach twisted violently. These people were targeting this moment to attack, bullying Sigourney for not appearing in the sun! But he actually understood the enemy's approach. Sigourney was invincible in the dark. The only thing that could defeat or even kill Sigourney was the sun.
Signe is ice and snow, melting in the sun. She is a dead leaf, burning in the sun.
A ray of sunlight that seems gentle in the eyes of ordinary people can also cut a piece of flesh and blood from Sigourney.
What's more, the carriage is now unobstructed by the midday sun, and the whole ground is golden.
To vampires, this space is filled with blades and blazing flames, burning everything.
Sigourney couldn't come out, couldn't come out.
Once he leaves the black coffin, he will be reduced to ashes in just a few breaths without anyone having to do anything.
In these few short breaths, he was suppressed by the sunlight and didn't even have the strength to kill someone.
Dead end.
An absolute dead end!
Ivan and Yelena could not help but feel despair.
However, Ash, who had attracted enough hatred and was the first to bear the brunt of the attack, did not show any panic. At the moment when the dazzling magic light and shadow completely submerged him, he thought of what Nance had said in his heart. He did not avoid or give way, but went straight to the place where the attack was the heaviest.
——"Two people are one."
——"It's not you and me, but (us). When one of us is in danger, the other will automatically enter a stress state for (our) safety."
He stood in front of the pine coffin without hesitation, his heart determined that he believed what Lord Nance said.
They are a community. When faced with a threat, if the contract determines that he cannot resolve it and will be harmed, then Sigourney, who is capable of facing the threat, will be allowed to replace him and save him from danger.
Now his life is in danger and he will be dead in the next second, so... the contract should also take effect, right?
As he thought about this, he felt the familiar dizziness and a faint smile appeared on the corner of his lips.
Ah, it worked!
It is true, Mr. Nance. Such a knowledgeable astrologer is really amazing.
You are absolutely right!
His eyes went dark, and when he regained consciousness, he was already in a small, soft space. The light was dim all around him, with only a gap on the side, through which a beam of sunlight peeked in and landed on the right side of his chest, leaving a bright mark.
The skin beneath the bright marks, even through a layer of magic robe, still felt like it was burned by fire, causing excruciating pain.
However, compared with the torture-like pain in his right hand, the severe pain in his chest seemed nothing.
His right hand stretched out from the gap, completely exposed to the sun. From fingertips to forearm, every inch of it seemed as if a dull knife was peeling off the skin bit by bit, removing the flesh, and scraping against the bones with a harsh sound.
The pain made his brain emit a low buzzing sound, and he almost fainted again after just regaining consciousness. He blinked and tears of physiological pain fell in strings.
"Why are you crying!" An irritated voice came from outside, and then the right hand, which was almost numb from the pain, was quickly stuffed in by the person outside. Then with a "click", the open gap was closed forcefully, and the surroundings returned to darkness, and no more rays of light leaked in.
Only the lingering pain in his chest and arms reminded him that everything was real.
Ash's thoughts, which had been interrupted by the pain, finally started to move.
Yes. He succeeded in exchanging with Sigourney.
The reason why her right hand was so painful was because Sigourney opened the coffin lid a crack and stretched out her arm towards the sunlight.
Although it was only a few seconds... Ash tried to move his almost unconscious right hand, and was surprised to hear the sound of bones colliding. He couldn't see anything in the darkness, so he subconsciously touched his right hand with his left hand and felt the flesh and blood tissue that was slowly healing and still beating.
Ash: “…” It seemed as if his right hand had been melted by the sun until only a skeleton was left.
Sigourney should also know about Lord Nance's speculation about the contract, right? She should also know that when he is in danger, they can switch bodies, right? At that time, the sun will not be a hindrance to him.
But why did he open the coffin in advance and extend a hand?
Is it to protect them from the first wave of attacks?
Yelena had said before that high-level vampires all had their own unique talents. Sigourney's vampire talent was "withering". He could make everything visible and invisible that his hands touched disappear without a trace.
Including magic.
So, were they worried that Ivan and Yelena would be harmed by the spell before the bodies were swapped, so they opened the coffin from the inside?
Ash endured the pain and forced a smile in the darkness.
Sigourney is really a vampire who is not afraid of sunlight.
Jane Fairbairns asked Sigourney if she dared to come out?
If there was no contract, Sigourney would have come out before he provoked her, right?
——Hiss, it hurts so much!
Another string of tears rolled down, and the smile on his face suddenly twisted into a strange shape.
