Chapter 86 84. Kill the hostage first!
Osprey retracted his gaze from his phone and looked at the man in a blood-red robe and a demon mask. He saw him walk into the equipment room and close the door.
"Who are you? If you want to ask me for divination, it's best to come during the day. Also, don't wear such an old-fashioned mask," Osprey said dissatisfiedly.
Violet suddenly trembled violently, as if she sensed that some extremely terrifying energy was gathering on the masked man. She turned her head to remind her roommate:
"No, this person is terrible, very terrible."
As the man closed the door, the black iron scepter in his hand gently tapped the ground.
As the characteristics of the magic weapon were activated, it seemed that there was an invisible seal that isolated the sound interaction between the inside and the outside. The faint cicada and bird sounds suddenly disappeared, and only a dead silence remained in the abandoned equipment room.
The man wearing the devil mask put his index finger against the bloody mouth of the mask and made a shushing gesture:
"Don't try to ask for help. No matter how loud you shout, it won't be transmitted to the outside. The same applies to all electromagnetic wave signals that have not been allowed by me.
"I really didn't expect that such a hidden arrangement would still be discovered. Fortunately, I have a trick up my sleeve. When the magic circle is seen, I will automatically sense it."
If Russell were here, he would definitely question the man, why he had to explain the reasons for his actions and the means he mastered like a standard villain.
If he doesn't say anything, won't he reveal any information to the righteous?
Osprey was shocked and finally reacted: "Did we meet a bad guy? I remember the divination result told me that today is suitable for adventure!"
Violet turned her head and exclaimed: "Then we are dead, right? The divinations you demonstrated in front of me several times before were all accurate when viewed the other way around!"
Osprey argued: "Don't talk nonsense. How can my divination skills be so bad? "
The masked man in red robe coughed twice, interrupting the two people's argument:
"Tell me, why did you come to this abandoned equipment warehouse in the middle of the night? Has anyone told you that there is something abnormal in this room?"
Osprey explained tremblingly:
"Well, recently, there have been rumors on the college's official website forum that a ferocious ghost appeared in the abandoned equipment room of the primary school gymnasium. Before, in addition to us, several teams of students have come to explore. "
"What?" The man wearing a demon mask snorted, "Is this room haunted, not the abandoned tower next to it?"
The man was furious and clenched his fists: "Damn it, Feng Ling actually betrayed us!"
Violet and Osprey looked at each other, confused, not knowing who Feng Ling was, and not knowing the cause and effect.
"Thank you both for your answers." The man wearing a demon mask regained his composure.
"So you can let us go, right?" Osprey asked weakly, trembling.
"So you want to silence us, right? "Violet mustered up her courage, looked straight at the man without fear.
The purple-haired girl held her palms up, one holding a red flame and the other holding an icy blue cold vortex.
Osprey was terrified: "Violet, don't talk nonsense. Do you think he looks like a big villain who would kill people to silence them? Well, he does. The key is that if a student dies in the academy's barrier, it will trigger an alarm, so that the dead can be thrown into the school hospital for resurrection as soon as possible, otherwise the critical time for resurrection will be missed..."
"Ahem." The masked red-robed man coughed twice and interrupted the two again: "Don't worry, I won't kill you."
Osprey patted his chest and panted violently: "I'm scared to death."
"I will knock you two out first, take you to the jungle and kill you, pretending that you died accidentally."
"Ah?" Osprey's face turned pale.
The moment this sentence came out, the red flames and icy blue cold currents in Violet's hands were thrown at the red-robed man at the same time.
"Melt! "
The red-robed man did not move at all.
A wide filthy water wall was "created" out of thin air and appeared in front of him, blocking the energy attacks of ice and fire.
Part of the dark water wall was frozen into black ice, and part of it turned into boiling pure white steam.
"Water wall technique! I've seen students of the Creation and Summoning Department use it!" Osprey immediately pointed out the ability used by the red-robed man.
The red-robed man pointed the scepter in his hand forward and chanted a filthy spell in a low voice.
A huge dark magic circle appeared on the ground, and mysterious and obscure runes rotated in the magic circle. One by one, tall demons with goat heads crawled out of the magic circle.
Summon demons!
...
Russell and Subway rushed to the door of the gymnasium equipment room, but found that the door could not be pushed open. It was not that the door was locked, but that there was an invisible force inside that pushed against the door, isolating the inside and the outside.
Russell tried to insert a piece of paper into the crack of the door, but even the crack of the door had an invisible barrier, and it could not be inserted at all.
"It's a barrier! A barrier that separates the inside and the outside and blocks sound. Something is wrong inside!" Subway, who had a foundation in mysticism before entering school, recognized it at a glance.
"How to remove this barrier? Can I break the door?" Russell asked quickly.
"The walls and doors are difficult to destroy because of the barrier. With the ability of a first-year student, it is impossible to break them by force. Unless someone inside can open the door."
Russell understood and understood that the actions of "opening the door" and "closing the door" themselves have mystical meanings, symbolizing the smoothness and closure of space.
"Feng Ling, see if you can get through the wall and open the door from the inside."
Feng Ling received the order from the contract master and tried to pass through the iron door.
This barrier is mainly to prevent the entry of physical substances. It seems that there is no deliberate preparation for the invasion of spirits, but Feng Ling still feels a huge repulsive force.
This ghost with the strength of the middle of the second grade, using all his strength, can only maintain the repulsive force and the force of his own forward movement to achieve a force balance.
Seeing this, Russell used psychic magic to drive an elephant ghost to push on Feng Ling's back, as the last straw that broke the camel's back, and finally pushed her into the door.
While driving the spirit, Russell aimed his mouth at his left hand and passed the information to Professor Black Amber through the spirit "Hidden" parasitic on his left hand.
Creaky.
The iron door was opened from the inside, and the scene in the room came into view.
……
Osprey fell in the corner of the room, unconscious. She was not good at fighting and had been knocked unconscious.
Seven or eight tall and strong goat-headed demons surrounded Violet by the wall.
Violet was covered in blood, with a shocking blood hole on her left shoulder, and the gem necklace on her neck, which was a magical weapon, was emitting a dim light.
She held the ice-cold blade in her right hand and waved it left and right to prevent the demons from approaching; her left hand hung down weakly, dripping with bright red blood, and it was obvious that the bones in her arm were broken.
Each goat-headed demon summoned was comparable to a mid-first-year student who was good at fighting. With the cooperation of each other, even most second-year students could not resist, and Violet could not contend with them alone.
In the corner of the room, a man wearing a demon mask and a blood-red robe couldn't help but sigh when he saw Violet's brave fighting posture:
"She is so tenacious, it's a problem."
The main problem is that if she or the summoned creature hits too hard and accidentally kills Violet, it will be bad because the death of the student triggers the alarm of the academy's barrier!
It was a pity that his specialty was summoning deployment and dividing the battlefield, and he had no mental attack means to knock out the enemy or the sleeping target.
Otherwise, with his strength as a strong man in the early third grade, he would have knocked out the two first-year students with just a few flicks of his fingers.
"But you are already at the end of your strength, right?" The red-robed man raised his hand and was about to order the demons to launch the final attack.
Suddenly, his intuition was touched, and he instinctively turned his head and looked behind him.
"Stop!"
Russell and Subway rushed into the room and shouted.
While speaking, Russell had clicked on the photo of the emerald cat in the mobile phone album.
The photo disappeared, and a red fireball condensed in the air in front of Russell.
This is a storage photo containing a trace of the soul fragments of the emerald cat, which can cast a single "fireball", and the power is only 70% to 80% of the original.
"Are you going to threaten me with such a childish trick?" The red-robed man wearing a demon mask chuckled and disdained.
He clearly felt that the energy contained in this fireball was weaker than the flame of Violet just now.
Unexpectedly, Russell lowered his phone directly and aimed it at the unconscious Osprey at his feet. In the face recognition of the camera, he locked the Osprey as the target of the suspended fireball:
"If you and the goat-headed demon dare to move again, I will use a fireball to blow up this girl! When a student dies, the alarm will sound. When the teachers come, you, the cultist, will definitely not be able to escape!"
