Looking at the magician who was tied up and unconscious, Xignom muttered in a low voice.
"What's there to apologize for, Xignom? It's just to seize their magic power. This kind of thing is nothing at all" Vita glanced at Xignom who looked slightly sad, then turned to look at The magician whose magic power was eaten away by the Book of Darkness had a trace of crazy obsession in his eyes, "As long as it's for the wind, I won't hesitate to kill someone"
Xignom and Zafira looked at each other silently, and they did not deny Vita's words.
Because they are the same.
"Everything they do, even if it is considered evil, doesn't matter.
Xignom calmed down her mood, then raised her head to observe her surroundings. The sudden uneasiness in her heart always made her very concerned.
Will something happen tonight?
Xignom is still very confident about her intuition. After all, she has experienced countless battlefields, and the intuition honed between life and death is already one of her abilities to survive.
"But are the local magicians only of this level? They are really useless at all"
Vita looked at the number of pages filled in the Book of Darkness and couldn't help but feel disappointed.
"Don't complain so much, Vita" Xignom warned lightly. Although she was also eager to complete the Book of Darkness as soon as possible, as the team leader, she must remain calm enough, "What we are doing now has caused We have caught the attention of the local Magician Association, we must be more careful in our next actions, and we must not let them discover the existence of the master"
"Well, it's just that under the current situation, it is too difficult to continue to collect magic power, not to mention that these magicians don't have much magic power. For the Book of Darkness, it is simply a drop in the bucket" Vita frowned, and then He looked at Xignom with a hint of danger in his eyes, "Xignom, the school where the Magicians Association is located here must have many qualified magicians. How about we"
Regarding Vita's proposal, Xignom showed a little struggle on her cold face under the mask. When she wanted to say something, she suddenly felt a slight strangeness.
"who!?"
With their sharp eyes piercing in a certain direction, the other two people immediately understood and immediately assumed a battle stance.
Soon, there was a rustling sound, and two short figures appeared.
The girl in black looked solemnly on guard against the three of Xignom, but their attention was mostly focused on the boy walking in front.
The boy seemed to notice that everyone's eyes were focused on him, and a warm smile suddenly appeared on his lips.
¡°Good evening, current criminals, you have the right to remain silent, but everything you say will be used as evidence in court~~¡±
When Neil saw the mysterious man present, he couldn't help but exclaimed in surprise.
"Neil, do you know who they are?"
Tifa glanced at the scene, turned to Neil and asked quietly.
"Actually, I'm not sure, mainly because we fought against each other before in the Holy Stone Seed incident, and they were dressed like this at that time" Neil explained in a low voice, and then frowned slightly, "But now it seems that they were dressed like this before. The attack on the magician that the old man heard about was caused by these guys"
"Then what are they doing now?" Tifa's face changed slightly, and then she pursed her lips towards the center, "And what's going on with that book?"
From the beginning, Tifa felt a sense of uneasiness from that book, as if it was a darkness that would swallow everything up.
¡ª¡ªJust like Neil used to be.
Many images that she didn¡¯t want to think of again gradually appeared in her mind. The girl felt as if her chest had been hit hard, and it was difficult to even breathe.
"It should be swallowing magic power" Thinking about the information in his hand, Neil still gave the answer, but he didn't hear Tifa's response. He couldn't help but look over strangely, only to find that Tifa's face was a little pale. In a daze, "Hey, Tifa, are you okay?"
"Ah, it's okay!"
Tifa was brought back to her senses and smiled reluctantly at Neil.
"real?"
Feeling the boy's worry, Tifa's smile became a little warmer, and Neil looked at her smile and felt as if he had gone back to a long time ago.
"who!?"
At this time, the voice from the other party seemed to indicate that their existence had been exposed.?
¡°What a sharp guy.¡±
Neil murmured a little, and after looking at each other with Tifa, he jumped down and came to them.
Tifa followed Neil closely, holding the contract card tightly in her hand, looking at the opponent warily, as long as they made any move, she would take action immediately.
Neil glanced at the magician who had been thrown to the ground, feeling that he was still alive, he felt relieved, and then looked at the trio with a smile.
¡°Good evening, current criminals, you have the right to remain silent, but everything you say will be used as evidence in court~~¡±
"Ha!? Who cares about you, you perverted and lustful gay devil!!"
The little man standing on the right sneered unceremoniously.
"Hey, what's going on with this title? Who is that gay? He's slandering me for no reason!?"
Neil felt very hurt. He just said he was horny, but this time he added a gay guy. Is he like a special group of people? ?
"Neil, I think you need to explain to me what happened afterward."
Tifa blinked her shining eyes and smiled at Neil with a slightly curved mouth, and then Neil changed into a lifeless expression.
Ah, death, I can bear it this time.
The atmosphere at the scene became a little subtle. Although Xignom wanted to complain, it was still important to escape at this time. The uneasiness in her heart turned into reality. She actually met a troublesome guy. In public and private matters, she They didn't really want to fight with this young man who had a close relationship with their master.
Although she really wanted to chop off one of Neil's hands.
The sudden resentment on his body made Neil think that Tifa's punishment on him was going to be doubled again.
¡¾Vita, Zafira, let's go. ¡¿
Xignom's words reached the hearts of the two of them, and they were in perfect agreement. When Nier and Tifa's attention was diverted, they started to move at the same time.
However, before they had even taken a step forward, Neil's figure came from behind them, with a cold magic sword pointed directly at them.
"Hey, since you're here, just finish your coffee before leaving. Don't worry, our service attitude here is very good, and you will definitely feel at home."
¡¾So fast! How can it be! ? ¡¿
Xignom had already calculated that several of her people could take advantage of that gap to escape. As long as they escaped a short distance, they could use magic to leave instantly, but she really didn't expect that the other party could intercept their way so quickly.
Did they expose that gap on purpose just now?
¡¾It seems that they need to be re-evaluated. ¡¿
Behind them, unnoticed by them, Tifa let out a small breath, and the pair of gloves that appeared on her hands from unknown time were shining with a charming light.
It was really dangerous just now, and someone almost ran away. Fortunately, Tifa activated the contract card ability in time to slow down the opponent's time, and Neil immediately chased him out.
¡¾Don¡¯t let your mind wander during the battle. Let¡¯s deal with Neil¡¯s matter later. ¡¿
Tifa calmed her mind, clenched her fists, and concentrated all her attention.
"There is no other way, let's fight quickly."
Xignom groaned, and after exchanging glances with Vita and Zafira, the three of them immediately started to move.
"Neil!"
Tifa noticed that two of them were rushing towards Neil, her eyes flashed, and she ran towards them quickly, but her front was blocked by a burly man.
"Let me be your opponent for now, young lady."
A deep voice came from the man's mouth, and he clenched his fist, bringing a violent storm towards Tifa.
Tifa slowed down her steps and turned sideways to avoid it. The opponent's punch made her little face feel a little painful.
"Girls don't like men who keep pestering"
Tifa slid forward and struck Zafira's chin with an uppercut wrapped in magical power. Zafira did not make a hard connection, but simply changed her direction and dodged away. But strangely, the fist that originally came from the attack suddenly disappeared. In Zafira's eyes, the change of direction was like a random splicing together. The incongruous feeling made him unable to take any measures. Tifa's uppercut turned into an elbow and hit Zafira's head. At the moment when the opponent was shaken away from her abdomen, she crossed her hands and stood upside down on the ground, attacking in a strange posture. Her slender legs rotated at high speed, rushing towards the opponent like a blue tornado.
"The dragon dances against the will!"
The magic power exploded,Two figures emerged from the raging magic power.
"Did you miss it? But this is enough"
Tifa did not pursue the victory, but turned around and threw herself into another situation where the battle was more intense.
When Neil faced the combination of Xignom and Vita, he felt the pressure from them for the first time. One was fast and the other was fierce, but the cooperation was extremely perfect.
Constantly waving his double blades, he blocked the incessant attacks from all directions. Xignom's fast attack almost required him to concentrate on dealing with it, while Vita's burst of pure power hit him hard. My hands are a little numb.
¡°Let me stop you, what¡¯s wrong with them!? Have their skills been increased!? Anders, have you notified them yet?¡±
"I've already sent out the SOS signal, but boss, I'm about to be knocked unconscious."
"Can you stop being so humane!"
Neil can suppress him alone, but if they two attack at the same time, it's not as simple as one plus one. The two of them have been working together for a long time, and their tacit understanding is excellent. Their complementary attacks almost make Neil breathless. The combat effectiveness is simply doubled and doubled again.
"Well, it seems we have no choice but to live or die"
This is not the time to show mercy, and he is still powerful enough to play tricks on an enemy of this level.
Neil narrowed his eyes, and the double blades in his hands shook. A dangerous aura made the two attacking people a little nervous.
With a little magic on his toes, he instantly moved in front of Xignom in the void. Under the sudden change, Xignom saw Neil's eyes glowing with an ominous red light, and a cold feeling quietly flowed through his body, but the movements in his hands did not move at all. Without delay, the long sword blocked in time, and Vita had already reached Neil's rear.
¡°Give me a nap!!¡±
With the violent shouting, Vita's giant hammer has arrived.
"Didn't you notice that there is a sword missing from my hand?"
"Huh!?"
"Vita suddenly felt that his body seemed to be entangled with something. The joints were tightly clasped and unable to exert force. The giant hammer in his hand could only stop. He was unable to move as if he was hanging in the air.
"This is a string?"
Vita struggled hard, but the restraint on her body became tighter and tighter. Her throat felt like it was being strangled and she couldn't breathe. She reluctantly opened her eyes and looked around, only to see extremely thin threads wrapping around her. The end of these threads is Neil's free left hand.
Xignom did not expect that the situation would be reversed so quickly. She retracted her sword and stepped back a foot, looking at Neil calmly.
"Hey, I caught you, surrender"
Neil put the sword on his shoulder and tightened the string slightly. Vita, whose breathing was restricted, couldn't help but let out a painful groan.
"Whowill surrenderI am justcareless"
While breathing the air, Vita refused to admit defeat and retorted intermittently.
"Ha, you still have time to talk"
Neil laughed a little in anger. From Vita's eyes, all he could see was persistence without flinching.
¡¾Ah, what a nasty guy. ¡¿
"Be patient for a little while"
However, what Neil was waiting for was not the response he was expecting. He saw a brown hard-cover book in Xignom's hand. The book floated in her palm and she automatically opened the pages towards Neil.
"you¡¡"
Seeing that the other party did not care about the safety of his companions, Neil hesitated a little. Could it be that this guy was sure that he would not kill him?
But the current situation really didn¡¯t allow him to think too much, because Xignom had already slashed at him with his sword, and at the same time, the uncontrolled Book of Darkness stretched out countless black tentacles and rushed toward Neil.
"Ah, tentacles or something, I'm not a magical girlthe 30th Archer of Light!"
Neil pulled Vita away with a headache, barely blocking Xignom. Facing those black tentacles, Neil instinctively felt the danger, and there was always a voice in his heart warning him not to come into contact with them. .
Otherwise, unimaginable things will happen.
However, when the light arrow came into contact with those tentacles, there was no collision between light and darkness. Instead, it was completely swallowed by the other party, just like a black hole. Then, as if it had received a delicious tonic, it danced more and more crazily. .
Neil couldn't help but be stunned. At this time, Xignom attacked Neil's left hand. Neil had no time to react, and he didn't even have time to use the Vita in his hand as a shield.
Could it beDo you want to sacrifice one hand to fight hard?
However, while his thoughts were still running, the scene in front of him suddenly changed into slow motion. Neil could clearly see the movement of everything around him, including the fine dust in the air.
"Huh, it looks like we've caught up"
There was a female voice of relief in his ears. Neil looked at Tifa's relaxed face and couldn't help but clenched his fists.
In the end, was he the one being protected?
"Hey, Neil, don't be distracted, there's still work to do next"
Tifa¡¯s heart sank when she saw Zafira appearing unharmed next to Xignom. She turned her head and looked at Neil, only to find that he seemed a little out of sorts, and she suddenly became anxious.
"Ah, sorry"
Neil shook his head, and then used his fingers slightly to bring Vitara a little closer.
"Signom, that girl is a little strange."
Zafira always had an unspeakable feeling in her heart about the scene during the fight. The girl named Tifa seemed to have abilities that they had never been exposed to before.
Hearing this, Xignom looked at Tifa again, and was also surprised by Tifa's sudden appearance just now. It was not so much about speed, but more about a kind of mutated magic.
¡¾Xignom, Zafira, be careful with this girl, she seems to be able to control the flow of time. ¡¿
At this time, the words from Vita brought them an answer.
When Neil was taken away, Vita could naturally feel the strange feeling of everything in the world slowing down. He felt wary and immediately sent news to his teammates who still didn't understand the situation.
The two were stunned for a moment, and then became even more wary of Tifa who was ready to attack. At this moment, Tifa seemed to be more difficult to deal with than Nier.
Sensing the change in the other person's eyes, Neil's mind was racing, and he turned to look at Vita in his hand, "It seems that keeping you with me is not a good thing" Then he turned around and said, "Tifa, be careful. Well, the other party seems to have a vague understanding of your abilities"
Tifa nodded, pulled the black gloves on her hands, and showed a confident smile, "Well, I understand, but I don't think I will lose"
Neil shrugged and did not deny it. He had no intention of attacking his teammates at this time. What's more, he didn't have the courage.
"Zafira, we will evacuate immediately after rescuing Vita"
As soon as she finished speaking, Xignom flew out like a red cannonball. She gently stroked the sword body, her eyes as sharp as a knife.
"The flaming magic sword is filled with magic bullets."
"Explosion!"
The long sword in his hand clicked and a smoking empty shell popped out. At this time, the sharp sword edge was surrounded by a layer of blazing flames, like a dancing fire snake, biting wantonly.
Neil took a step to block Tifa behind him, raising the magic sword in his hand, but the force stronger than expected forced him to move away.
"The power has become stronger!?"
At the moment Neil was repulsed, Zafira's figure had already come to his side, her five fingers formed into claws, aiming directly at Neil's left wrist.
"Don't forget me"
The slender leg whip swept across the tip of Zafira's nose, and the magic power condensed on the toes was like a blade, leaving a shallow scar on his face and curling up a few blood flowers.
There was no regret after being hit on Zafira's face, but a rare smile. His other hand appeared like a ghost and clasped Tifa's ankle.
"caught you¡ª¡ª"
The silver sword shadow with murderous intent flashed coldly in Zafira's eyes. Before he could finish his words, he quickly retracted his hand and jumped back several meters.
"Don't touch her with your hands"
The cold eyes reflected Zafira's figure, and the red stream of light seemed to dye him with blood.
"Neil"
Tifa called out a little, Niall frowned, and the terrifying aura on his body became much weaker.
"Be careful, let's go together."
"Um."
After getting Tifa¡¯s answer, Neil looked down at Vita, who he had just used as a shield, and curled his lips.
¡°It¡¯s really a hindrance.¡±
At this time, I was about to chop the guy in my hand.
After hearing his whisper, Vita glared at him fiercely. This stubborn attitude was very familiar to Neil.
¡°She looks quite similar to the violent lolita from Hayate¡¯s family. ¡¿
??At this moment, Neil felt a strange feeling in his heart.
But the other party would not wait for him to think things through. A new round of offensive was launched again. Nier and Tifa's eyes instantly exchanged, and they took steps at the same time.
Xignom swung the flaming magic sword and slashed it down from top to bottom. Neil endured the scorching heat and stepped aside. The big sword in his hand slashed towards the opponent's neck. At this moment, Zafira, who was acting as a backup, punched It smashed over with a bang.
In an instant, a faint light flashed.
"Hey, as expected"
The proud laughter came from behind, and Zafira and Xignom only felt chills running down their spines. The young man in front of them had disappeared, and was replaced by the girl who was in the gap between their attacks. Xignom's skills were better than his brain reaction. Faster, the blazing magic sword turned subconsciously, just in time to block Tifa's palm from hitting the abdomen. The two forces collided and disappeared, and the two sides were slightly shaken several feet apart.
And Zafira concentrated all her magic power on her arms, as if she had put on a thick wrist guard, crossed and blocked, and cut with the cold and sharp sword body, creating countless coquettish magic sparks.
Neil turned around, and the magic sword in his hand rubbed a bright meteor in the night sky. He joined hands with Tifa who was shaken away at the same time. For a moment, Xignom and Zafira rushed over again, and Shige Nomu's long sword turned into a snake-shaped chain, swinging in weird curves like a fire snake. Zafira moved straight back and forth, blocking the two's retreat with his heavy fists.
However, a strange sense of dissonance came again.
Speed ??up, slow down.
The world in front of you seems to have stopped time.
Only those two people are still moving freely in the world where time is stuck.
Nier took Tifa¡¯s hand and pulled it forward. Tifa swept away the magic power in her fist at infinite acceleration.
"Hidden Dragon Thorn!!!"
A piercing sound was shot out like a sharp arrow, passing through the center of the chain, all attacking Xignom's body.
Tifa used the reaction force of the attack to retreat back, and placed her palm on Neil's back. Neil turned from extremely still to extremely active, holding the hilt of the sword tightly with both hands and placing it in front of his eyes. His plain eyes reflected Zafi peacefully. The figure of La.
"Yue Qian"
The figure flashed and the light flew by.
"The stars move."
A light golden light filled the sky, Nier and Tifa fell at the same time, and opposite them, there were two knocked down enemies.
"It was successful!"
Tifa bit her lower lip to suppress the smile on her lips, but the excitement in her eyes was still clearly revealed.
The first time she cooperated, she was able to achieve such results just through eye contact. In this way, she could really be his helper.
Tifa looked at Neil, trying to find the same look on Neil's face.
"I just repelled it once, don't be careless."
But what disappointed her was that the boy's expression was very dull, and what happened just now seemed to be just a trivial matter.
¡ª¡ªIt¡¯s just like this, it¡¯s not enough.
"You can't get close to them"
Xignom stood up holding his abdomen. The two of them had a tacit cooperation just now. They easily defeated the slightly stronger ones just by using the ability to control the flow of time. It seemed that the two of them knew each other very well.
"Leave me alone and leave!"
If it were not for being caught in the hand, Vita, who had long been forgotten, screamed out and angrily refreshed her presence, while the comrades on the other side who stood up again just glanced at her silently, without any gesture of leaving.
"No, I can never leave you behind."
Xignom said lightly, if Vita is caught, Hayate will definitely choose to go into danger, not to mention, Vita is an indispensable partner of their Knights of the Storm.
"Wow, this line is so good! Sure enough, everything on the jump is the truth!!"
Neil nodded excitedly, not abandoning or giving up is the fine tradition of young jump. Gintama almost forgot this after watching it so much.
As a partner, Tifa sighed helplessly, couldn't this guy take a look at the atmosphere? No matter how you look at it, now is not the time to support the enemy.
Xignom was not affected by Neil's words. He just glanced at Zafira, and the two of them surrounded her from both sides again. Only this time, the two did not rush to attack, but maintained a proper offensive and defensive distance.
"Heh, it seems that I have taken precautions"
Neil chuckled lightly, and looked side by side with Tifa at each other's movements.
Zafira suddenly lowered her body and?Slammed to the ground, stabbing countless pieces of gravel. Neil frowned, and swung the sword in his hand. The sword net formed by dancing at high speed blocked all the gravel, while Zafira just kept coming around. Creating a nuisance and not approaching.
"Neil, be careful."
Hearing Tifa¡¯s shout, Neil turned his eyes slightly and saw that Xignom was attacking from the other side. Tifa clasped his fingers, and the clock pattern on the glove glowed again.
However, this time, Xignom did not hold a sword, but rushed over with the Book of Darkness. At the same time, he muttered words, and an ominous feeling passed through Neil's heart.
The black magic circle suddenly appeared, and the previous tentacles emerged again. Tifa immediately activated the ability of Rhythm of Time, but something unexpected happened to her.
The tentacles passed directly through the circle of Rhythm of Time, completely ignoring Tifa's magic and extending with ominous magic power.
"careful!!"
When the previous tentacles emerged from the black magic circle, Neil's eyes widened. He didn't care about the Vita in his hands and directly threw it away. He hugged the dazed Tifa into his arms and subconsciously reached out to block the rushing tentacles.
"ah¡ª¡ª!!!"
The tentacle seemed to have pierced Neil's arm, and the blood vessels on his arm suddenly stood out. Neil couldn't help but scream in pain, his face was extremely ferocious, his eyes were blood red, and his body felt like a riot, with strange forces running around in his body. , every nerve seems to be enduring the pain of tearing.
"Walk!!"
Xignom shouted, and Zafira immediately picked up the escaped Vita. She didn't care about Neil's weird situation, and immediately activated magic to escape. When they disappeared, the original tentacles also turned into light spots and dissipated. Neil's painful expression gradually faded away. He reluctantly opened his eyes and glanced at Tifa, whose face was full of panic. He tried hard to open a reassuring smile on his lips, but he couldn't do it. He could only faint as if he was relieved. past.
¡°Neil!! What¡¯s wrong with you!?¡±
Tifa hugged the weakened Niall tightly, and gently stroked the boy's pale face with one hand. She bit her lips to hold back the tears, but the hot tears kept dripping uncontrollably. The boy's face.
Why? Why is this happening?
Although he was a servant, his master was injured.
Once again, saved by him again.
Obviously, I no longer hope for such a thing to happen.
She is indeed very weak.
"Miss Tifa, the boss just fainted now. Let's leave here first."
At this time, Andles floated over, and the pleasant electronic sound recalled Tifa who was immersed in sadness.
Tifa wiped away the tears from her eyes, nodded, and then turned to look at the previously unconscious magician.
"What to do with that person?"
"I have already sent a message back, and someone will be here to deal with it soon. Don't worry, just wait until the boss wakes up and explain."
"I see."
Tifa took a deep breath, stared at the boy in her arms for a moment with her reddish eyes, and then quickly left with the boy in her arms.
