85. Defeat magic with magic
The quill record is not emotional, but Xu Fei felt the indescribable complex emotions in these few short sentences. He looked deeply at the last sentence left by Bachelor Lark Law, and then his eyes slightly rise.
[Sir Marcus: Bachelor, the final battle is imminent, how much inventory of Silver Blood is there?
Bachelor of Lack Law: There are still 100 bottles, all sealed on the eighth floor of the tower.]
Then, Xu Fei looked at the end of this record again.
[Guard: Sir! That damn bat is out of control!
Sir Marcus left the office with the guards.
Bachelor of Lack Law: Old friend, I'm here to see you.]
The two paragraphs of text turned into a series of pictures in Xu Fei's mind.
The giant bat that absorbed a large amount of cursed blood lost control. Marcus hurriedly left the Silent Tower and led the soldiers of the Raven Legion to fight the giant bats, and finally won the victory at a heavy price. During the battle, Marcus was forced to drink a large amount of bat blood for some reason, so he turned into a half-human and half-bat monster. After that, he stood under the hanging gate, until today.
Judging from the dates on the manuscript, the battle took place six years ago, and Marcus was probably guarding the door for six years.
Why?
Perhaps because of his obsession when he was a human being, in order to keep the secret of Silver Blood, he wanted to forbid all living creatures from leaving Raven Castle.
Maybe there are other reasons.
According to the experimental conclusions of Bachelor of Lack Law and Bachelor of Fritz, if the cursed person cannot obtain blood, he will completely lose his mind and become a black blooder. Marcus obviously did not become a black blooder, and he seemed to still maintain a trace of reason.
I don’t know how he replenishes blood and provides nutrients to his body over the past six years?
Xu Fei thought about it for a while but did not think of a reasonable explanation, so he temporarily put down this question and prepared to go to the eighth floor of the tower.
Bachelor Lack said that there are 100 bottles of silver blood in the eighth floor, and I don’t know how many are left now?
Hope to get a hole.
With this idea in mind, Xu Fei put the colored magic crystal he found in the office into his pocket, then lifted Mrs. Gray and the Magic Eye Guard, strode away from the office, and stepped onto the spiral stairs.
Although the Eye of Insight no longer issued a warning, out of caution, he still used the magic eye to guard the way first, but there were no mechanism traps between the sixth and seventh floors. After a few minutes, he successfully arrived at the seventh floor.
The seventh floor is located in the middle of the tower, and it looks like an observation deck. There are twelve window holes on the curved wall. The howling wind pours into the room through the window hole, which is bitter and bitter.
There is a tripod in front of each window hole, supporting a telescope with a length of about 1.3 meters. The long tubular objects Xu Fei saw before when he looked up at the top of the tower under the tall tower were these telescopes.
At this height, if there is no fog blocking, you can easily see a large area outside Raven Castle with your naked eyes. Xu Fei really wanted to try to use these telescopes to see the outside world, but he didn't know how long he could stay here, so he suppressed his curiosity and took a step towards the eighth level.
The eighth floor of the tower looks like a warehouse, with a much smaller space than the storage room on the third floor. Through the narrow entrance, Xu Fei saw two rows of shelves, and there were ten rows of silver bottles neatly placed on the shelves, each row of ten, no more, no less, exactly one hundred bottles.
It seems that after fighting the giant bat, Marcus never returned to the tower and was unable to send these hundred bottles of silver blood to the front line.
Xu Fei was overjoyed, and he changed his cautious habit and couldn't wait to walk towards the entrance.
However, an invisible barrier blocked him back.
It was like a stone sinking into the water curtain, and transparent ripples appeared at the entrance.
Xu Fei was stunned for a moment, then raised Mrs. Gray and stabbed gently at the entrance.
Half of the sword body stabbed into the room without any obstacles.
Xu Fei took back Mrs. Hui and tried to extend his finger into the mouth, but the invisible barrier blocked him again.
This is……
He remembered a noun mentioned by Lack Lauven in his conversation with Marcus: Spell Barrier.
No wonder there is no door at the entrance of the eighth floor. It turns out that there is a more effective spell barrier here than the iron gate.
The silver blood was close to him, and was within reach, but Xu Fei could not reach into it. He frowned irritably and thought about countermeasures, but he knew nothing about magic and could not think of a solution.
After a while, he simply put down Mrs. Gray, increased the blood temperature to 64℃, and hit the entrance with all his strength, but the violent impact only caused a large ripples and failed to break through the barrier. He was like he bumped into a spring bed, and his whole body was bounced back.
The brute force was difficult to fight against magic. At least with Xu Fei's current strength, he was not enough to destroy the magic barrier. He vomited a breath of turbid air in depression and rubbed his cheeks hard.
While rubbing his face, Xu Fei saw the demon eye guard under his feet from the corner of his eyes. He moved his heart and leaned over to point the demon eye guard at the entrance. Then he took the colored magic crystal from the exit pocket and filled it into the groove on the back of the demon eye guard.
After changing into the "new battery", the magic eye guard opened his eyes, stared at the entrance, and activated the accompanying spell [Tearing Eyes]. At the focus of its gaze, the spell barrier rippled.
Xu Fei calmed down and observed the changes at the entrance. As time passed by, the magic crystal gradually became transparent.
Seeing that the magic power stored in the crystal was about to be exhausted, Xu Fei couldn't help but feel a little anxious. At this moment, he suddenly heard a short and faint sound. Then, cracks appeared in the transparent magic barrier, like a broken mirror.
The next moment, the cracks and ripples disappeared.
At the same time, the magic eye guard exploded with a "bang", and the thick slurry splashed everywhere. The last wrist foot that remained twisted like an earthworm and stopped moving.
Xu Fei did not expect this result. Looking at the minced meat and slurry on the ground, he sighed regretfully.
Then, he looked at the shelf filled with silver blood and slowly reached out to the entrance. This time, he finally reached in.
Sure enough, only magic can defeat magic!
At this moment, a strong sense of dizziness hit the back of my head.
It's time.
Xu Fei stopped hesitating and walked quickly to the shelf, holding a silver blood bottle in a daze.
……………………
"Dingling-Dingling-Dingling-"
The familiar cell phone ringtone echoed in the bedroom.
Xu Fei stood by the window in a daze for a moment, looking down at his hands.
Mrs. Grey is in her right hand, the silver blood bottle is in her left hand, and the Eye of Insight is worn on the little finger of her left hand.
All the ones that should be brought back are brought back.
Unfortunately, time is tight, he only brought back a bottle of silver blood. However, there are ninety-nine bottles of silver blood in the tower, which means that for a long time, he no longer has to worry about blood thirst.
Thinking of this, Xu Fei suddenly felt relaxed. Then, when he saw the sky outside the window, his heart skipped a beat, and he hurriedly turned around and picked up his cell phone and answered the call.
"Hey, coach."
"Where are you?"
"I...sorry, something happened, it was delayed."
"Where are you? How long does it take to get to the Olympic Sports Center?"
Xu Fei looked at the time and it was 1:10 pm, and it was more than an hour before the finals began. The drive from home to the Olympic Sports Center is only 40 minutes.
"I'll take a taxi right away and I'll catch up!"
Xu Fei shouted and hurried out of the bedroom.
When he ran to the entrance, he suddenly stopped moving, turned around and rushed into the bathroom, and washed away the blood on his right arm.
A few minutes later, Xu Fei stopped a taxi at the intersection and fastened his seat belt, he took a look at the time.
1:14.
