Diablo Destruction

"By the way, how is the research on that huge magic circle going?"

This is the second question I urgently want to know. The existence of a huge magic circle makes me sleepless every time I think about it. Will this magic circle be popularized? If so, for the entire Dark Continent, It will be an unprecedented disaster.

This problem is also the most serious problem I have encountered since I came to Dark. The previous tasks, such as monsters attacking villages, rescuing the Horadric clan, supporting the elves and the alliance dwarves and orcs, etc., although of great significance , but it will not cause destruction or disaster to the entire Dark Continent.

But that chilling giant magic circle that can transport monsters from the third world directly to the second world can do this. Its existence is like a tunnel, which can bypass the Dark Continent without any effort. The major races and the angel clan built strong city walls in the third world and came to the weakly defended city to carry out massacres.

When this issue was mentioned, Akara's expression became serious.

"There is no result yet. Farah has gone to the place you mentioned twice to investigate, but he didn't get any useful clues."

"That guy traveled to the second world twice?"

My eyes widened, damn, this guy didn't even say hello when he came.

"This mission is too urgent. He came in a hurry both times. Not to mention that he didn't say hello to you. Not even the Mages Guild in Lu Gaoyin knew about it."

"So that's it."

I nodded. No wonder Taba didn't tell me. It turned out that even he didn't know.

"It's really weird."

Akela suddenly murmured.

"What's weird?"

While dodging the naughty harassment of the little ghost lying on my back, I paid attention to Akara's expression.

"Although no useful clues were found, Farah carefully studied the entire structure of the huge magic circle..."

Akara made a meeting appearance and murmured.

"According to Farah's inference, this huge magic circle is very likely to be based on the World Stone Teleportation Magic Array and has been appropriately transformed. Belial is probably the only one in the entire Hell clan who can do this.

Although he has not fully figured out this magic circle, Farah is certain of one thing. Just like the World Stone Teleportation Array needs the World Stone as its core, this huge magic circle also needs something as its core. "

"So what?"

With doubtful eyes, I waited for Akara to continue speaking.

"According to your explanation of the battle that day, something at the core should still be there."

Akara turned her head and looked at me with a questioning expression.

"..."

After carefully recalling the situation that day, indeed, according to Evelina, all enemies should have been eliminated. There would not be any enemy secretly holding that precious (?) core or something like that. Even if it ran away, I didn't take it, so it should still be there.

Of course, there are still two possibilities. First, Evelina secretly stole that thing. However, although she does not think highly of this broken sword that seems to exist as a comedian in heaven, but I just don’t think it would do this. Maybe it didn’t notice that thing at all. This broken sword has a very high standard and won’t pick up any weird junk with unknown uses.

The second possibility is Sister Sharna. She was the one who brought me back from a coma that day, so if anyone else can see that thing, it is only Sister Sharna. Could it be in her hands? Up?

Soon, I dismissed this idea again - it couldn't be in the hands of Sister Sharna, let alone whether she had discovered it or not, would she bother to pick up something with an unknown purpose, even if she picked it up, Given her character, I should take it out and ask about it after I wake up.

"Didn't you think of any clues?"

Akara looked at me and thought hard. After a moment, she raised her head and asked immediately, impatiently.

"No, I really can't remember who took it."

"That's really strange. Farah has already dug three feet into the ground there. Logically speaking, if it's there, it's impossible to find it."

Akara sighed in disappointment, but then smiled to console himself.

"It's okay if you can't find it. It's good news to confirm that the core exists."

"What's the meaning?"

I still can't wrap my head around it.

"If the teleportation of that huge magic circle only relies on the magic circle itself, of course, huge energy must also be necessary, but does the Hell clan do this?"

"Well, that's right." I nodded understandingly.

"If that's the case, there's no need to continue the investigation and just start preparing to fight the real hell clan in the second world and the first world."

After thinking about it, Akara showed a bitter smile: "If this is the case, the entire Dark Continent will most likely fall within a hundred years."

One hundred years... In these one hundred years, what kind of hell will the Dark Continent be?

I couldn't help but ask myself, and took a breath... This kind of thing is absolutely not allowed to happen.

"Fortunately, I now know that the conditions for using a magic circle include, in addition to the magic circle itself and the energy required for its operation, a core."

"I understand what you mean, Grandma Akara."

Yes, at least this way, we can still hope that the core production will be difficult... No, it is not an expectation, it should be a very confident judgment.

I have said before that God is a very lazy and irresponsible guy, which can be seen from the extremely rough rules he has formulated. But at least, although it is very rough, it does not lose its balance and authority, and it has actually been formulated. Since one can only go from one world to another through the World Stone, then even if others come up with other methods, this method will definitely not be too simple. Even the conspiracy demon Belial will be the same, unless his wisdom has already Able to rival the power of God.

After thinking about this, I, like Akara, breathed a sigh of relief for the time being.

In short, now we can think about it in a better direction, that is, the production of the core is very difficult, and looking at the number of fallen demons in the past, it is probably only possible to produce them, and there are some transmission restrictions, otherwise the four demon kings will bring them with them. Tens of thousands of powerful subordinates descended together, wouldn't the entire second world be turned upside down by them?

"You can think on the bright side, but the preparations cannot be vague. We must treat this matter as the top priority of the league."

Probably seeing how relieved I was, Akara couldn't help but remind me.

"I understand, Grandma Akara, I will pay more attention to this matter." I nodded.

"Xiaofan Xiaofan~~"

Perhaps seeing that her little movements could not attract my attention, the little ghost finally refused to be left alone, grabbed my collar and started shouting.

"Little guy, I'll talk to you later, after Grandma Akara and I finish talking about the business."

Without moving my head, I put my hand behind my back, pinched the little ghost's soft face, and said.

"Does the alliance have any countermeasures now?"

"Don't worry, I have arranged people everywhere, and also conveyed the news to the elves, dwarves and orcs, plus prophecy, a three-pronged approach. If that magic circle appears again, we will definitely be able to If you get the information in time, it won’t be so easy to let the clues slip away next time.”

Akara said confidently.

"Xiaofan~~Xiaofan~~"

There was a dissatisfied voice from behind, playing with the cute ending, and I could just imagine the cute little ghost looking angry with his mouth puffed out.

They all said that I would spend enough time with you later.

I continued to reach out my hand without looking back and caress the head of the little ghost behind me.

"Do you need my help in any way, Grandma Akara?"

Because the problem this time is so serious, so serious that it affects the survival of the Dark Continent. One mistake will seriously affect the happy and stable life pace of me and Vilas, so even if we take eating and waiting for death as our first goal in life, I, too, had to take the initiative to ask for help.

"Not yet, but we have to be prepared at any time. If it does appear then, I'm afraid it will take a few of you to take action to eliminate the enemy."

Akala seemed very happy with my sudden positive attitude and smiled.

"Xiao~~Fan~~!!!"

The sound of the little ghost behind me gnashing her teeth came to me for the third time. I could already imagine that she must be licking her white and shiny teeth with her soft pink tongue, just like a butcher grinding her teeth before killing them. Like sharpening a knife.

"Okay, may I ask my saintly lady what important matters you have? Can't you let me finish talking to Grandma Akara first?"

Feeling the pressure of a real sense of crisis coming from the back of my neck, I turned around helplessly, hugged the angry Highness the Saint in front of me, kissed her beautiful round eyes, and held her on the elastic The big hand on her buttocks also gently rubbed it a few times and asked.

Anyway, Akara is blind, she can't see, she can't see my little movements, that's it, okay.

"Woooooo~~~"

A charming whisper leaked from her delicate lips, and the little saint was like a deflated ball, and her anger could no longer be aroused.

"Tell me, my dear Holy Lady, is there anything important?" At this time, I smiled slightly.

"I don't know! No! This saint will not say anything to a useless and indifferent arrogant servant!!"

Alice, who felt that she had been tamed by the other party's despicable and dirty methods inexplicably, was still unconvinced.

"Wu, you can't let Your Highness Alice be wronged." Akara smiled and tried to smooth things over.

So what should I do if I am wronged?

Secretly rolling my eyes, I said all the good things, and finally made our little saint happy and said what I had been trying to say just now to interrupt the conversation between Akara and me.

"You just talked about the core of the magic circle or something, I know!!"

After whetting our appetite, the little ghost confidently told us a piece of news that surprised us.

She actually knows what the core clue is?

Yes, I remembered it! !

I remember Sister Sharna did say that when she found me, the little ghost kept hugging me. It was clear that there was a strong wind and sand outside, but she didn't know how to hide in the necklace. As a result, both of us were buried in the sand. got up. They almost became a ghost couple under the gravel world.

According to my speculation, when I lost consciousness and fell from a high altitude, the little ghost ran out and grabbed me. Otherwise, given the height at that time, coupled with the extreme force caused by the use of complete rage and punishment, In a weak state, if I fell during a free fall, I would most likely die.

What happens after it falls?

I slapped my head! !

Besides Evelina, the second person who is most likely to come into contact with that core object is not Sister Sharna, but the little ghost. How could I have forgotten this matter.

Moreover, don't forget that the little ghost always has the same interest as the dragon in shiny things. Of course, the ultimate goal is somewhat different. The dragon's purpose is to collect, and her purpose is... ahem.

So, if she had discovered that thing at that time, then the criminal...well, sorry, then the murderer...well, I admit that I was too excited, for the last time, then the perpetrator must be her! !

"..."

Even though I changed my words twice, I still felt subtly sorry for the little ghost.

"You took that core thing, right?"

All in all, like a famous detective, I pushed up the bridge of my nose and pointed at the little ghost to tell the truth.

"It can be said that..."

Contrary to the high-spirited look just now, the little ghost showed a slightly troubled look.

Sure enough! !

I jumped up excitedly, hugging the little ghost and cheering.

"Xiao...Xiaofan, that...that..."

Probably because he felt a little sorry for someone's current excitement, the little ghost's voice became hesitant.

"Well, what's the matter? If there's no problem, just give the core to the old stingy Farana as soon as possible."

Saying this excitedly, I took the little ghost's little hand and was about to take steps.

"Listen to me, you stupid servant!!"

There was a click and the arm was bitten.

"Okay, if you have anything else to say, just say it."

Rubbing the familiar and clear row of teeth marks at the bite site, I stared at the little ghost faintly.

Akala, you see, who of the two of us has suffered the most injustice.

"Sit down for this saint... No, squat down for me, raise your hands, and listen carefully to what this saint has to say, you bastard!!"

The tone that sounded exactly like a gangster policeman was uttered by this little saint with a holy and beautiful melody. It was spoken from those moist and beautiful lips, which made people feel like they were bursting into tears.

I really want to see what kind of virtuous face the guy who taught her this way of speaking and turned a good, holy, dignified, kind, gentle, innocent, beautiful, candidate for a saint with a moving singing voice into a female hooligan has.

"This saint indeed discovered it at that time. It was probably the core thing you mentioned."

After I acted like I was all ears, the little ghost finally began to explain hesitantly.

"That feeling is good, that feeling is good." I nodded like a chicken pecking at rice.

"Then I thought it was not far away anyway, so I took Xiaofan, who was unconscious at the time, and ran to pick it up."

"Well done, well done."

I nodded more frequently, almost to the point where it seemed like a ghost.

“But right now!!!!!”

Suddenly, the little ghost made a huge turn without warning, as if she saw three demons suddenly appearing in front of her. Her pretty face was full of solemnity, panic, anxiety, fear and other emotions. The plot leads to shocking and huge suspense.

"What...what happened?"

I swallowed without nervousness and was completely immersed in the suspenseful atmosphere created by the little ghost.

"Just then, I got hungry."

After a pause, the little ghost touched her flat and slender belly and said aggrievedly.

"..."

You are hungry. Is this something as serious as the invasion of the three demon gods?

No... wait, instead of complaining about this...

I suddenly had a bad feeling in my heart and asked almost out of the blue.

"Little ghost, tell me, is that core sparkling like a diamond?"

"How do you know?" The little ghost showed a surprised expression.

"..."

It's over, everything is over.

I cast my sad eyes on Akara. The old fox Akara, who knew what the little ghost usually ate, now looked completely panicked and helpless.

"I'm a little tired of eating diamonds all the time, and I also want to help Xiaofan save a little bit."

The little ghost was depressed for a while, then finally said, he raised his head a little proudly, as if he really helped me a lot.

Don't save when you shouldn't save, you bastard. What time did you choose? You bastard, and you just bring it with you. You said you should take it with you. The main reason is that you are tired of eating it, bastard! !

I resisted the urge to lift the coffee table, and looked towards the morning sun with tears streaming down my face. I felt like a snowman now, about to melt under the rising and increasingly hot sun.

"So, it looked delicious, so I bit into it and washed it clean before biting it."

As if she was afraid that I would blame her for being unhygienic, the little ghost paused and added another sentence at the end.

"..."

I think about Xiaofan very much, right?

The little ghost, who seemed to realize that he was causing trouble, looked at me with pitiful eyes.

"Yeah...yes, tell me, I'm happy."

Facing such a little ghost, I couldn't say a word of reproach. I could only caress her long moon-colored hair like a puppy.

"Little fool, remember, don't eat anything that falls on the ground."

"Wu Gu~~"

The little ghost lowered his head in frustration, then suddenly raised his head as if he remembered something.

"But it's not over yet." After a pause, she said.

"at this time!!"

Okay, so what? One of them was not full, and another one ate?

Because I had already experienced the cry of wolf, I was somewhat immune to the little ghost’s “This is it!!”

"Just when I took a bite, the strange gem suddenly cracked and split into many pieces and almost flew away."

"..."

Hey, hey, this is too nonsense, it's not like the seven [beep] beads, they will scatter and fly away after the wish is fulfilled.

"Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu My tongue is hurt, Xiaofanli is in his mouth, Liuri is in his mouth (look, it's here)!!"

When she said the last few words, her voice was slurred because she opened her mouth and stuck out the cute little pink tongue hidden inside. There were no scars on it, and some of it was just shocking. Ran's heart flutters, and she can't wait to get closer and hold the pink temptation in her mouth.

Even if he was really injured at that time, as an adventurer's physique, he would have fully recovered immediately, and it would be impossible to leave any traces.

However, it was as if I really saw the little ghost being hurt, and I felt distressed. I held her in my arms lovingly, stroked her gently, and comforted her softly.

"Be good, it doesn't hurt. Remember in the future, don't eat anything of unknown origin."

"Yeah, I understand."

Feeling the distressed tenderness in the words, the little ghost sat contentedly in my arms and refused to get up.

"correct."

She suddenly exclaimed again, raised her head, dug through her fingers, and then handed me a fragmented gemstone that looked like a diamond.

"This is one of the pieces after it cracked. I only had time to grab one piece. I originally wanted to wait until I had time to chew it into pieces and throw it into the pit."

The little ghost stared at the broken piece in her hand that had hurt her tongue. The thing that was treated as food actually hurt herself. Her eyes did not hide the resentment of hunting geese all day long and being pecked by geese in the end.

"..."

I was stunned for a moment, staring blankly at the core fragments close at hand.

It takes no effort to find anything even though I have worn iron shoes. This is probably a description of my current mood.

"Grandma Akara, only the core fragments are left, is that okay?"

Akara had been listening on the side and should be very clear about the situation at hand, so I didn't waste any more words and asked directly.

"You should ask Farah this, but I think it should be enough. It's better than nothing."

Akara is also smiling.

From just now, she has been acting as an observer almost all the time, because she knows very well that with the character of this ghost saint, if she rashly interrupts, she will either be ignored, or she will be resented, and she will not be able to forgive her in any case. good.

"Without further ado, let's go to the Mages Guild now."

I nodded, put away the broken pieces, and the three of us walked towards the Mage Guild.

"By the way, Grandma Akara, what did you want to say just now?"

I suddenly remembered how Akara seemed to have something to say just now, but was interrupted by a little ghost making a fuss at the side before he could finish his words.

"Oh, that's right."

Akala answered while walking.

"Madam, I also know about the unique skills of the Saintess profession from the book. I think that for Her Highness Alice, the most important thing is level, is that right?"

"Yes, it is indeed so."

I nodded with deep understanding. The saint profession is very different from other professions. The power of the weapon she is proud of [Sacred Domain] depends on the level of the little ghost itself. Compared with it, combat experience and Abilities such as the use of skills must be pushed back.

"But even a saint doesn't have many attack methods, so I think, if Her Majesty Alice allows it, I can find some sparring partners for Her Majesty Alice from the second world."

"Lord Akara, you don't know something..."

I told Akara the supernatural incident of the little ghost eating the crystal tree and upgrading.

"is that so?"

To my surprise, Akara never showed a surprised expression from beginning to end. In the end, he just sighed and smiled slightly, as if he knew something.

"Grandma Akara, do you know what the relationship is between the little ghost and the crystal tree?"

I couldn't help but ask. Eating the Crystal Tree to upgrade is such nonsense. If there is no relationship between the little ghost and the Crystal Tree, then it is called time travel.

"This matter..." Akara smiled bitterly.

"I only know a little bit. If you really want to know the answer, you have to ask Teacher Yalandan. Only she knows everything and has the right to tell you."

After giving the two of us a meaningful look, Akara lowered his head silently, as if he didn't want to continue this topic.

We have the right to?

What does it mean? Yalandlan knows all the inside information. I can understand this, but why is she the only one [who has the right] to tell us?

What kind of secret is hidden here? ! !

I was completely confused by what Akara said. It seems that next time I go to the Elf Clan, I have to find something on Yalandlan, otherwise this matter of little ghost will be in the clouds. The situation is really disturbing and maddening.

"Unexpectedly, Teacher Yalandlan is willing to give the Crystal Tree..."

Before Akara finished speaking, the little ghost suddenly interrupted.

"I promise."

she said loudly.

"Aren't you looking for a partner for this saint? I just agree."

Seeing that we didn't react for a moment and showed a confused expression, the little ghost put his hands on his hips and announced loudly and proudly...
