Everyone has overlooked one problem.
Since Dean's new ability can summon the shadows of everyone in the venue and then transform them into "Shadow Dolls", then why do the three magicians who are clearly members of this group not react at all?
It was clear that their shadows should be the focus of Dean's attention, and the possibility of problems should be the greatest, but from beginning to end, there was no obvious abnormality.
Whether it was the light screen or the "Shadow Doll", they all tacitly avoided these three people, as if they were deliberately excluded.
Such a simple detail, but the audience never noticed anything strange.
This is the same principle as "darkness under the light". The more attention is paid to it, the easier it is to be ignored.
At first, even Dean didn't take it seriously. He just thought that they were too wary of him, so the heraldic ability didn't work successfully. But as time went by, he gradually began to notice something strange. .
He vaguely felt that something was wrong with the shadows at the feet of the magicians.
As if pregnant with something.
In order to verify whether his perception was correct, Dean went into battle personally and fought against Basil and Maya. During the battle, he became more and more sure of the existence of that strange feeling.
It's definitely not an illusion.
But what the strange feeling meant was something that Dean had no idea about.
With this doubt, he repeatedly tested the magician, trying to get more information, and combined with the vague description given by the other party when he just communicated with Kana, he finally summarized the final answer.
Looking at Basil, whose eyes were full of anger but whose body was completely unresponsive, Dean walked closer and looked up and down his body, which was gradually covered with black liquid, as if he were admiring a test subject, with a look of contemplation on his face.
This coat of arms was far more domineering than he thought.
It's not that it didn't work, it just took effect in a place that no one noticed.
It’s also because the previous scenes were too high-profile. First there was the light curtain and black rain, and then the materialized “Shadow Doll” appeared. The audience and the magicians were attracted by these big scenes, and their attention was diverted, and they only saw these. Although there was a threat on the surface, he didn't notice the presence in the shadow behind him that was ready to move.
Compared with the obvious "shadow doll", these are the real hidden murderous intentions.
Sneak directly into the shadows of the magicians, find the most suitable time, and then erode their power, bind and replace them.
To be honest, they are the most successful intruders, and they are much more threatening than the "Shadow Dolls" that appear on the surface.
Moreover, by controlling the body from the shadow, he also successfully avoided the fixed template of "Shadow Doll"...
Just as Dean was summarizing, Basil was completely submerged in the black liquid.
He was wrapped into a huge lump of black mud, and the black liquid around him was like a ball of plasticine, slowly adjusting its shape.
Then, in Dean's surprised eyes, this huge ball of black mud gradually grew claws and ears. Two long rabbit ears hung down behind him, swaying, and it was quite comical.
Ears, claws, eyes... After several adjustments, the black liquid finally succeeded in shaping itself into the shape of a large "Shadow Doll". The eyes flowing with black liquid looked towards Dean, revealing a look of desire. The meaning of praise.
...It seems that he still hasn’t escaped.
Shocked by what could be said to be the most eye-catching "Shadow Doll" look today, Dean took a half step back, showing an expression that he couldn't bear to look at.
It seems that the "Shadow Doll" template cannot be bypassed. I don't know if it is because of Kana's race problem, or because he has only bred this kind of shadow-related magic pet, so there are no other shadow dolls. s Choice.
It would be great if a second breeding plan for shadow familiars could be devised as soon as possible.
Dean wrote down this idea, then turned his head and looked at Maya in the distance.
Maya didn't know if she favored girls over boys. Mira over there was unconscious and she was so anxious. Basil here saw that everyone was about to die, so she just released the puppet and rescued them meaningfully.
Dean couldn't stand it anymore.
And he was also good at helping others seek justice, so he immediately waved his hand and asked Basil to seek justice for himself.
After receiving the order, Basil immediately summoned the demon spirit and attacked his companions without hesitation.
Seeing him running towards her, Maya gritted her teeth, squeezed out the little remaining magic power, and directly released a puppet wearing an eagle mask.
The puppet skillfully set up a bow and shot arrows, using special arrows that could detonate, forcing Basil back.
However, this kind of attack was obviously not enough to wake Basil up. He ignored the possibility of being injured and stepped forward again. His reckless look made Maya's face look even more ugly.
The situation is too unfavorable for me.
Looking at Mira in her arms and Basil, who was being played with like a puppet, Maya's heart instantly sank to the bottom.
The situation of the battle was indeed very bad, but she still had a trump card. If she revealed this trump card, not to mention turning defeat into victory, she was absolutely confident that she could win the game.
But Mira’s body can’t be delayed any longer.
Companions or origin guild qualifications, which one is more important?
Maya made her choice without hesitation.
She raised her hand and signaled to the referee to admit defeat.
The sound of the end of the competition also sounded.
Maya's act of admitting defeat naturally fell in the eyes of the audience. Although they knew that the wizard made this choice for the sake of his companions, it still caused a sigh of relief.
Even in the observation room, there were discussions from time to time.
Looking down at the venue that was entering the final stage, Sigrid leaned back in her chair and couldn't help but chuckle.
"A surplus of emotion."
Knowing what she was laughing at, Lensak shook his head and denied.
It is indeed a good thing for a team to value every member. But in such a high-stakes competition, it would appear weak to put too much emphasis on feelings.
Lensak didn't feel moved, just pretentious.
If the knights were all like this, then he, the leader, might not even be able to collect the corpses.
Too fragile.
They seek life and death for trivial matters, and even force a breakthrough, which ultimately affects the entire team.
Others actually looked like they were willing to be implicated by her.
Lensak didn't understand what these people were thinking. Anyway, from his standpoint, he couldn't appreciate this kind of professional culture.
Sigrid was noncommittal.
"You are too harsh, and you always like to use this set of harsh standards to demand others... I think this kind of unity is good."
Her gaze passed over the slowly dissipating "Shadow Doll", as if it was just a casual glance, and she quickly turned away without even waiting for the blurry figure to come into her eyes.
