Xia Ye looked at the missiles coming towards her, without any movement, as if there was nothing she could do.
——This is a matter of course. "Spider Web" is a contract with ridiculously harsh restrictions, including that it can only be used in a confined space, that all enemies will be affected when used, and that there must be a long period of time between each use. If used again, additional magic power will be consumed each time, and if the cobweb is too large, the magic power consumed will also increase, etc...
But on the contrary, its effect is also very amazing.
"Restrain all creatures within the range, making them unable to move, cast spells, attack, defend, and [most] actions other than the above four categories."
In short, it is almost impossible to make any movements - even if Xia Ye's "rift" is available, she cannot exile herself under the constraints of the "spider web".
At a distance of just a few meters, the missiles arrived in the blink of an eye. Xia Ye could even feel the scorching heat brought by the tail flames. They were getting closer and closer. She instinctively closed her eyes. In the darkness where she lost her sight, she felt the scorching heat. Passing over her skin and hair, and then... gradually moving away.
She opened her eyes and saw a miniature missile about the same length as a pen, like a swimming fish, nimbly moving around her body.
The missile disappeared behind Xia Ye...
When they appeared in everyone's sight again, their flight direction had been reversed 180 degrees, and they pounced on the target on the opposite side of the table at a much faster speed than when they came!
“Boom boom boom boom——!!!”
Along with a series of loud noises, fire exploded on 704 one after another. The spider webs that bound everyone quickly dried up, withered, and disappeared without a trace in the blink of an eye.
The four of them jumped up from their chairs almost at the same time.
Curran raised his prosthetic hand, and the muzzle in his palm clicked open.
Xia Ye held her right hand, and the spear flashing with crimson thunder suddenly condensed in her palm.
Chris pulled out the narrow knife that popped out of the prosthetic spine.
Luka did not rush to unfold the magic sword, but first condensed the blue magic thread between her fingers.
The firelight on 704 finally began to dissipate. There was no charred corpse as imagined under the firelight, but a mirror as tall as a person.
Sigh——
A thin crack suddenly appeared on the smooth mirror surface, and then the crack spread like a spider web, occupying the entire mirror surface. The next second, the mirror cracked and turned into countless irregular glass fragments, scattered on the ground.
But 704 is still missing.
The scene was silent for a moment, and Luka was the first to react. She waved her hand vigorously, and the magic threads wrapped around her fingertips shot out in all directions. These threads seemed to have no entity and could penetrate all objects encountered, but once they touched the room's The wall will reflect like light.
In the blink of an eye, magic threads filled the entire conference room. Although it is far less dense than the spider silk of the "Spider Web" contract, it is enough to find a person.
Luka clenched his five fingers and quickly gathered all the threads towards an open space at the back of the conference room. The witch wearing a silver mask slowly emerged from the restraints of the threads. It was the unscathed 704.
She was not in her seat from the beginning, and Curran's missile hit the mirror image she had created with the "Mirror" contract.
The binding effect of the magic thread is far inferior to that of the "spider web". Black flames ignited on Qi04's body, burning the thread completely in the blink of an eye.
She raised her hand burning with black flames, and from beneath the mask, low witch syllables came out:
"M-..."
The sound just started and stopped suddenly. The next moment, the arm burning with strange black flames left the body and fell to the ground.
Chris appeared behind 704 as if teleporting. The narrow knife in her hand still maintained the slashing posture, and a drop of bright red blood slowly slid down the blade.
That's 704's blood.
The masked witch turned her head and glanced at the flat section of her right shoulder. Blood was pouring out of the fracture, but she didn't seem to care, and she didn't even feel the pain.
She raised her left hand and prepared to release the black flame again.
The sound of cannons rang out and reached her ears.
What was faster than the sound of the cannon was the 25 mm caliber shell fired from the palm of Curran's prosthetic hand. It had exceeded three times the speed of sound and spanned a distance of less than ten meters, accurately hitting 704's left shoulder. .
The shells exploded, blood and flesh flying. The masked witch's left shoulder was instantly shattered, and her left arm spun and flew out. Before she could react, the lightning gun flew towards her.
In front of Xia Ye, Xiu Ji had already turned into a tentacle. To be on the safe side, Xia Ye chose to hand Xiu Ji the thunder spear to throw. The red spear was so fast that only an afterimage remained. Xiu Ji was still there a moment ago. In Ji's hand, it exploded on the wall behind 704 in the next moment.
With a loud bang, the wall of the conference room was blown into a large crack.
And 704's body has become two parts separated from each other.
Only a short section of the chest is left in the upper half, only two legs are left in the lower half, and the waist and abdomen in the middle have completely disappeared under the attack of the lightning gun.
The room suddenly became quiet, and the four people looked at each other in silence, seeming to ask: "Is she dead?"
Curran was the first to walk towards 704 which fell to the ground.
"You knocked her cup away," she complained.
Xia Ye didn't answer and complained to her: "You never told me that you would take action from the beginning. I thought we would at least talk first."
"How could I tell you these things? If I did, I would have a duty to disclose it." Curran curled his lips, "Besides, don't you two cooperate very well?"
She walked up to 704, bent down, and carefully looked at the other person's silver mask.
"Do you think this guy is the same as the 'Aether Whaler'?"
"Ether Whaling" is a company that relies on the name of "Ether Exploration" to pretend to be powerful. After Curran assassinated the other party's chairman, not only was he not retaliated, but he attracted the cooperation of "Seven Venture Capital Departments".
"What did she say to you?" Xia Ye didn't know what 704 said to Kelun.
"She asked me to kill you. In return, 'Yuan Ship Leasing' can get their low-interest loan, I can be the CEO of 'Fourteen Venture Capital Department', and I can live in Uptown in the future."
"You didn't agree to such a good condition?" Xia Ye said in a pityful tone.
"Because their cakes are not as round as yours, and according to the experience of the past two years, if they give something, they will definitely get it back doubled in the future."
"Then you should also know that 704 is not pretending to be powerful, she is really authorized. It's just..."
"Just what?" Curran asked.
"It's just that I guess the upper city is not monolithic. Some people are afraid that the whaling industry will develop too powerful and affect their rule; but there must be some people who are happy to see it happen. Otherwise, it is impossible for 'Ether Exploration' to take the initiative to research and develop 'Ether' Ramjet thruster'."
"I thought the same thing as you."
"Then you still ask?"
"It's only after I asked that I found out that you think the same as me." Curran smiled.
She stretched out her hand and grabbed 704's mask.
"I've always been curious about what this guy looks like."
The silver mask was easily taken off, revealing a young and beautiful face with a shocked expression on it, as if he didn't expect that he would be killed so quickly.
"Look, I just said they are not dolls, right?" Curran said, turning the mask over in his hand and clasping it towards his face.
This action was so natural that no one realized anything was wrong for a while.
"Hey! Curran!" Xia Ye was the first to react.
But it's too late.
The silver metal mask had been put on the gray-haired girl's face, completely covering her face.
Thanks to Sansanlu for the reward~
