Shameless Warlock
Chapter 239: Xingyue Gate and the Pioneer Ship
Horford has the ability to freely enter and exit Halsey Palace, so he did not go with Xu Nan.
According to yesterday's plan, he would go to the Twilight Hall alone and try to steal the "Book of Healing". Anyway, there are people coming and going in the Twilight Hall today, and many alchemists will come to listen to this debate. Even if they really lose the healing book, they probably won't suspect that the leader of the artifact is a ghost for a while.
Xu Nan walked aimlessly along the corridor on the side of the Sanye Hall.
Halsey Palace is simply too big.
After the seal was lifted, Stephen Sang did not have enough manpower to check and monitor every corner, which gave the Soul Thieves a lot of room for action.
After all, the owner of this palace is no longer there, and even An Suli cannot control the overall situation through the fixed magic circle of Halsay Palace itself; Lost home advantage.
With the stealth ability of the soul stealer, if it hadn't bumped into Xu Nan, it would be really difficult to identify it.
Therefore, just in case, the law enforcement team prepared a large number of live rabbits.
They are going to release this batch of rabbits when necessary, so as to catch the Soulstealers by surprise.
Of course, the premise of all this is that Akai's information is correct.
"I heard that the Soul Stealer on Heiwo Island was captured by a team led by Senior Sister Jiang."
"She mentioned before that she was doing errands outside the city, but she was also catching soul stealers."
As for the parts of the law enforcement team's operations outside the city, Xu Nan only read the dossier provided by Akai—from the description, the process was quite thrilling, and someone was almost caught by the Soul Stealer and turned into nourishment.
No wonder Jiang Yuanchi has been staying in Stephen Sang. An enemy of this level is indeed very troublesome.
There is a bend ahead.
Xu Nan couldn't help slowing down.
"Over there, is the Twilight Hall."
"It seems that there are quite a few alchemists joining in the fun."
He glanced at the other side of the passage, and could vaguely see the figures of many people.
Compared with the two-day purification ceremony, for most wizards, today's upcoming debate is the highlight.
Everyone is looking forward to the identity of the anonymous person.
"It's really troublesome. The dead Helena can be resurrected...huh?"
Just when he was thinking wildly, Xu Nan suddenly saw a familiar face in his peripheral vision!
That's a fat woman!
She was wearing a very standard alchemist's uniform, and she had just walked over from the Twilight Hall, her steps were steady, she was smiling, and she looked quite amiable.
It's Miranda!
Xu Nan's pupils shrank slightly.
When they were at the Rapunzel Inn, they didn't catch the innkeeper who was suspected of being a high-level soul stealer. Although Akai sent elite members of the law enforcement team to search afterwards, Miranda showed superb anti-search skills, and no trace was found.
Xu Nan once thought that she had left Stephen Sang.
Did not expect to appear here!
And it's still true.
"She came in as an alchemist?"
"Where is this going?"
Xu Nan walked past her calmly, without much hesitation, but slightly raised his chin at a certain angle.
Miranda obviously saw him.
There was surprise and hesitation in her eyes.
After a few steps, Xu Nan heard the gentle and familiar voice behind him:
"Thomas?"
Xu Nan ignored her, instead quickened her pace and walked deep into the passage.
Xu Nan's reaction made Miranda even more hesitant, but he didn't give her much time to think, and the figure was about to disappear into the shadows.
Miranda still stomped and followed, leaving Xu Nan half a body away.
Xu Nan sneered in his heart, and he didn't speak, just bowed his head and walked away.
Miranda was very patient. She seemed to have misunderstood something and followed Xu Nan all the time.
Xu Nan was even less anxious. His every move was under the watchful eyes of the law enforcement team. It is estimated that Akai and the others are discussing countermeasures at this moment.
He only needs to cast doubts and hold Miranda back.
Wait for Akai and the others to figure out a strategy and what they need to do, just execute it.
But not long after, Xu Nan suddenly felt that something was missing behind her.
He looked back abruptly—
Miranda, gone!
"She found me!"
Xu Nan wasn't annoyed, it was just a pity.
"Where did she disappear?"
Not far away, two members of the law enforcement team who were secretly following also ran over.
They looked at a wall next to the passage with some doubts, and fumbled lightly.
"There should be a secret door here."
"The woman just passed through the secret door."
"found it!"
A wizard chanted a spell in a low voice, and his hand pressed on a slightly raised particle, and suddenly, white light radiated.
A laser-like secret door was revealed in the thick wall.
"Soul Stealers are more familiar with Halsay Palace than you..."
Xu Nan couldn't help but complain.
"It looks like Miranda is much alerter than you expected."
Now it seems that Xu Nan's disguise did not deceive the high-level soul stealer, but revealed that the law enforcement team was setting traps, waiting for the soul stealers to take the bait——
Miranda chose to follow Xu Nan on the surface, but she was actually ready to leave at any time.
This completely caught the law enforcement team by surprise.
No one would have guessed that Soulstealer would know Halsey Palace so well. Judging from Miranda's skillful skills, it shouldn't be the first time she has done this.
No wonder the young lady that Xu Nan saw in the Hall of Dawn disappeared so cleanly!
"Be careful of the trap."
Xu Nan reminded me. The two members of the law enforcement team nodded, and they quickly did a [trap test] to make sure they were safe before walking in quickly!
Xu Nan seemed to be ready to follow, but at the last moment, he stopped suddenly.
He just stood there for a long time, until the secret door disappeared, he didn't move.
He seemed to have suddenly gone into trance mode.
"Um?"
After a long time, there was a sneer in the air: "You are more vigilant than those wizards."
Ten steps away.
The air was slightly distorted, and Miranda's chubby figure appeared leisurely.
"It really is fake." Xu Nan sighed lightly: "You soulstealers are really insidious."
Miranda smiled proudly:
"Strictly speaking, we all learn from your anthropology."
Xu Nan looked at her expression, a little curious:
"Shouldn't Soulstealers have no emotions?"
"Compared to the last time we met, you seem to be more emotional..."
Xu Nan has been driving the superspirit vision, and of course knows Miranda's situation well.
Although she is still at a particularly low level compared to normal people, for Soulstealer, her current emotions can be called rich.
Is the human body subtly changing her?
Xu Nan was a little curious.
Hearing this, Miranda became tense like a cat whose tail had been stepped on.
She pretended not to care and said with a dry smile:
"Don't you care about the situation of your two companions?"
Xu Nan nodded: "It seems that the secret door is actually a portal."
"How are they now?"
Miranda sneered:
"This is a very standard Xingyue gate."
"As for your two companions, of course I sent them to our mothership...I believe you will see them again soon, oh no, if it was you, there should be no chance."
Xu Nan let out an "oh", took out a hyperspace remote control from his crotch, and pressed the detonation button.
Although it was a pity that he couldn't hear the sound, he could imagine the scene where the alchemy bomb he placed in the two inflatable puppets exploded on the soul stealer mothership.
Well, remember to ask Akai to reimburse the money for the alchemy bomb.
Well, remember to increase the price.
"Fortunately, I kept an eye out."
"How can the soul stealer know Halsay Palace better than the wizards!"
Xu Nan sent a signal to inform Akai to close the net.
Miranda didn't react, she couldn't understand the meaning of Xu Nan's operation, and she didn't expect that the two "wizards" who were abducted by her to the mothership were actually just two inflatable puppets.
But she is still clear about the situation at the scene.
The real members of the law enforcement team show up.
There were four of them, and two of them were still carrying rabbits.
"You humans are really conceited and stupid."
Miranda taunted again:
"Do you think we are a race like yours that knows we have weaknesses but can't make up for them?"
Xu Nan reminded:
"I don't think so, but you are becoming more and more human."
"Everyone, go ahead, don't hold back, give me a hard beating."
While talking, the four wizards started to do it!
The two rabbits rushed to the front. Sure enough, when they encountered the Soulstealer, the rabbits seemed to become the most ferocious predators, regardless of the size difference between themselves and the other party.
"Go away!" Miranda shouted in a low voice.
A rich black-purple color suddenly spread from the back of her hand.
Her nails became extremely long, and with a single grasp, the two rabbits were disembowelled.
It seems that soulstealers have indeed evolved.
The wizards began to use instant spells in an attempt to imprison Miranda's actions.
But the strength shown by Miranda is really scary.
She looks as if she is completely immune to low-level instant-cast spells.
The fireball the size of a washbasin and the arrow of acid strong enough to melt metal hit her, but they didn't affect her at all.
On the contrary, the spells of confinement can have some effects, but they are also very limited!
"Her body..."
"Is this blood fusion?"
Xu Nan frowned.
He didn't make a move, but chose to observe.
At this moment, Miranda is completely different from the beginning.
Her skin turned purple-black, and fine scales grew from the neck down.
Like a half-human, half-snake monster.
This situation was unexpected by Xu Nan.
He hadn't fought Soulstealer before. Thomas was knocked out and taken away by Akai, and he wasn't as scary as Miranda.
"By the way, where is Akai? Didn't you send him a signal just now?"
Xu Nan felt a little uneasy in his heart.
"You look surprised."
"I might as well tell you that on the way to exile, we successfully reached a symbiotic agreement with another race, and we are one step closer to a perfect form."
"This time, this suspended fortress can no longer stop our mothership."
Miranda retreated towards the secret door while enduring the high-intensity magical attacks of the wizards.
The wizards of the law enforcement team are all the best of the best.
Miranda was able to resist these witchcrafts, and she also saved many transfiguration spells in front of Xu Nan, showing the magic resistance rarely seen among soul stealers, which finally made Xu Nan a little bit unbearable.
He's about to make a move.
However, at this moment, Miranda's back completely leaned against the purple secret door.
The light gate that had been extinguished turned on again, and a moon symbol even appeared above the light gate!
"This is... the Xingyue Gate of the Soul Stealer!"
"What is she going to do?"
Xu Nan shot violently.
Element throwing knife.
The gatekeeping skills of the apostles that had been accumulated for a long time were finally activated, but at this moment, it seemed a bit too late.
Because from the hidden door behind Miranda, there was already a sound of mechanical starting.
A sharp triangular bow just appeared on the stone wall!
That is, the vanguard ship of the Soul Thief Legion!
...
In the cold meteorite belt, fleets like space fortresses are gathering.
On the bridge of the mothership, a large number of creatures are waiting.
These creatures have different shapes, some are like bugs, some are like beasts, and some have long wings. But they have one very distinct thing in common, that is, their bodies are the most powerful weapons of war!
"We are riding the wind and waves on the road of evolution, and we are finally about to reach the other shore."
There is such a voice in the hearts of all creatures.
"During the long years of exile, we have finally found the race that best suits our souls in the multiverse. Let us pay tribute to the great brood!"
"The body of the Zerg, the soul of the Soulstealer, the super individual ability plus the unparalleled war wisdom..."
"We are destined to level everything."
"Go, we who are today will definitely leave a strong mark in the history of biological evolution in the multiverse..."
The soul thieves had no feelings, but the Zerg beasts that carried their souls began to get excited.
In the void, one after another Xingyue Gate was opened.
Small vanguard ships rushed in forcefully.
The scene was a bit chaotic, so that people ignored the information that a vanguard ship exploded automatically before entering the Xingyue Gate.
In the self-destructing vanguard ship, a stream of blue light poured into the Xingyue Gate and disappeared quickly.
...
Snapped!
In Xu Nan's hand, there was an extra expensive scouting ball.
This was originally something he had prepared to track down the Soul Stealer, but unexpectedly it came in handy in this situation.
He quickly checked the situation observed by the scout ball, and his pupils shrank!
His bad premonition came true!
A Kai's intelligence went wrong.
Today is not the day when the Legion of Soul Thieves launched a small-scale attack on Halsay Palace!
but...
Massive invasion!
...
