Chapter 227 012: Capture
A man and a ghost waited quietly among the ruins.
Time passes by every second.
However, Luo Xi's plan did not seem to go smoothly. After waiting for a long time, there was no sign of the unicorn. The Mosheng Fruit was eaten up several times. Even later, the snow deer was almost out of food, but there was still no sign of the unicorn.
Lina looked suspicious: "Can you do it? It's been almost two hours, why is there no effect at all?"
Luo Xi said: "Don't worry, we are just getting started."
In the blink of an eye, another two hours passed.
The snow deer in the magic circle had no more food to eat, so it crawled around in the magic circle and fell asleep.
Lina sneered: "Haha, you think others are fools. Look, these guys are very smart and don't want to be fooled."
Luo Xi looked puzzled: "It shouldn't be like this."
Lina questioned, "Did your potion fail?"
Luo Xi shook his head and said firmly: "Impossible, I have tested it with test paper before, and the taste of unicorn has been completely extracted. There is absolutely no mistake."
Lina rolled her eyes and said, "That means the unicorns can't smell it. I don't know when they were here before, and I don't know where they are now. There's no way you can attract them by putting something like this here."
Luo Xi frowned, but quickly shook his head: "No."
"Unicorns are different from other creatures. They have a strong sense of territory and are very vigilant. They only defecate in the territory they consider safe. Since there is their feces here, they must be active in this area."
"Their sense of smell is very sensitive, and they mainly rely on it to demarcate their territory. Wherever their sense of smell can reach is the boundary of their territory. As long as we are in their territory, they will definitely smell the scent of unicorns here."
Could it be that he noticed we were standing nearby and sensed danger, so he didn't dare to show up? But that shouldn't be the case. The invisibility cloak can conceal all auras, and it's impossible for the unicorn to detect it with its strength.
"rustle."
Just then, suddenly, a slight rustling sound came from the distance.
At the same time, Luo Xi clearly felt an abnormal mental force field coming from that direction.
“Here it comes!”
The previous doubts disappeared, and Luo Xi immediately turned his head to look over there.
Suddenly, several white lights appeared among the broken bricks and tiles. It was already night, and the white lights were particularly obvious in the darkness. Vaguely, three strange creatures walked out.
Their appearance is not much different from that of ordinary horses, but they are completely snow-white without any other colors. What is even more strange is that they have a straight, sharp horn about one foot long on their foreheads.
Unicorns!
Magical creatures that often appear in fairy tales, they really exist in the wizarding world.
This strange species is born with the ability to control magic, has a gentle personality, and is particularly fond of cleanliness. It is one of the most popular magical pets among women.
Three unicorns came to the outside of the ruins, stopped and looked inside, sniffing constantly, as if they were looking for something, and soon, their sights turned to the magic circle in the center of the ruins.
From the unicorns' perspective, there was obviously one of their kind there, but they were not quite sure because they had lived in this territory for a long time, and it had always been just the three of them. This sudden appearance of the tribesman was obviously a bit strange.
Unicorns are not low-level magical creatures like snow deer that have no cognitive abilities. On the contrary, they have high intelligence.
Seeing that the unicorn was suspicious, Luo Xi quickly used mental communication to let the snow deer resting in the magic circle stand up and move around, and shake its head. The book records that this is the way the unicorn tribe greets each other.
The snow deer did as it was told, and after seeing its actions, the three unicorns outside the ruins immediately dispelled their doubts, quickly walked into the ruins, and jumped towards the magic circle set up by Luo Xi.
Fifty steps. Thirty steps. Ten steps Now is the time!
At the moment when the three unicorns stepped into Rosie's magic, Rosie on the outside quickly opened his cloak, squatted down and pressed his hands on the outside of the magic circle.
In an instant, the originally silent magic circle seemed to come alive, and beams of light suddenly lit up. The circular magic circuit quickly transformed the entire magic circle, and the originally dark earth seemed to be rushed up by a beam of strong light from the ground.
“Crash!”
The temperature in the air suddenly dropped, and strong winds mixed with countless goose-feather-like snowflakes rolled towards the magic circle and quickly condensed around the magic circle. Only a series of crackling sounds were heard, and the top of the magic circle was quickly covered by a piece of ice crystals, as if a piece of ice cover was suddenly added to the earth.
The moment the magic circle was activated, the three unicorns inside realized that they had been tricked. They quickly swung the sharp horns on their foreheads and moved forward immediately. The space in front of them was distorted, which was a sign of space magic.
Unicorns are naturally good at space magic, and teleportation is a skill that almost every unicorn has mastered. This is also one of the important reasons why unicorns are difficult to capture.
Under the influence of the power of space, the figures of the three unicorns twisted and disappeared from the spot in an instant. Under normal circumstances, the unicorns would have teleported away at this time, and it would be almost impossible to catch them.
However, the unicorns' always-effective instant teleportation lost its effect this time. The spatial force failed to penetrate the ice crystal cover outside. It only twisted the cover and caused ripples. Then the three unicorns were bounced out.
Luo Xi curled his lips.
Of course he knew that the unicorn had spatial abilities, so how could he not prepare for it in advance? When setting up the ice barrier, he deliberately added a closed space spell formation, which was specifically designed to target the unicorn's instant movement. With these spells blocking the way, the unicorn would not be able to escape by relying on spatial spells.
“The real battle is coming next.”
Luo Xi did not get complacent with the present victory. He knew that he was far from trapping the unicorns, and the real battle with them had just begun.
He then raised his hand and summoned Hellfire and the blacksmith Balder, controlling them to rush into the magic circle. The ice barrier was a one-way barrier, and it was extremely difficult to get out of it, but there was no obstacle to get in from the outside.
At the same time, the unicorns' breakout began (end of this chapter)
