The place that had been lively for a while became deserted again. Alpha looked at the shadow dolls that had disappeared and gained a new understanding of this kind of magic pet.
Although it looks short-handed and short-legged, it is not a magical pet that is stronger than the physical body. When it comes to use, it turns out to be unexpectedly reliable. After a while, it is completely invisible.
Even excluding the help of Kana's balloons, the quality of these magic pets themselves, or the quality after being strengthened, is definitely not to be underestimated.
The assassin glanced at the strong black field on the ground and the mist that gathered together and was trying to repair the cracks, but with little success. He was even more worried about the strength of the breeding house.
He originally didn't expect to rely on those little magic pets to find Lucy and complete a search that was almost like finding a needle in a haystack, but now he was suddenly a little uncertain.
With Dean’s endless trump cards, it really makes people afraid to draw conclusions.
Feeling the energy that had not yet fully recovered, Alpha curled up his lips, and his mood, which was originally a little irritable because of the idle work, suddenly became happy.
Worth it.
Based on what he saw after coming in, today's trip was definitely worth the price.
If the ability to select and breed demon pets shows the breadth of Dean's abilities, then what he has shown now, being able to develop a kind of demon pet to such a degree of "exquisiteness", reveals this "art" depth.
Just having a glimpse of the leopard makes people... amazing.
Covering up all kinds of complicated emotions, Alpha glanced at Kana and asked: "Can you still contact those shadow dolls?"
"Here."
Kana nodded and said yes.
The balloon is its "tentacles", an extension and expression of its power. With this medium, it can communicate with the Shadow Dolls through the diffuse shadow world.
Seeing that it was confident, Alpha stopped talking.
Don't forget that they found the person here, but the Shadow Doll disappeared over there. When the time comes, they find the person and lose the magic pet, and they find the magic pet and lose the person. This matter will not be solved.
The assassin yawned and hugged his shoulders, showing a passive and lazy look.
…
Facts have proved that Dean's reliability will soar as long as it is in the field related to magic pets, and 99% of the judgments he makes are reliable.
This time is no exception.
With the activities of the Shadow Dolls, the power of the Shadow Realm began to spread and penetrate outward quietly. The Demon Pets were like soldiers charging into battle, and the power they carried was also full of aggression.
Kana was immersed in the beauty of this territory expansion, and was about to pass the contract and praise Dean, when she felt a familiar breath appear behind her.
Dean, who was returning, had an eagle-winged cat in one hand and a doremi in the other. Although he only brought two magic pets with him, he seemed to be in a hurry. As soon as he landed on the ground, he let go of the latter's hand.
"Did you find anything?"
Not caring about the curious Doremi, Dean hugged Garfield and shook him twice urgingly. After a moment, he received a slightly hesitant look in response.
"no feelings?"
He frowned, then clicked his tongue in disappointment.
"It seems like I overestimated you..."
Um?
Garfield narrowed his eyes and kicked Dean's chest with his hind legs. Without any mercy, he directly used the power of this kick to complete the take-off and landing movements with a flexibility that was very inconsistent with his body shape.
After brewing for a moment, the demon pet slowly waggled its tail, and invisible energy fluctuations accompanied its movements, like ripples on the water, gradually spreading outward.
Dean also opened the Eye of Destiny and made two decent efforts at the side.
But after all, he was still a little experienced in this area. He looked around and saw nothing. Finally, he simply gave up the struggle and put his hopeful eyes back on the hawk-billed winged cat.
Time passed bit by bit. I don’t know how long it had passed. Just when Dean couldn’t help but start to wonder if he had put too much pressure on the hawk-winged cat, the tail like a pendulum clock finally stopped swaying. , moving slowly, pointing in a certain direction.
And in this direction, an unknown number of meters away, Lucy and others were running for their lives non-stop.
"twitter."
Another direction was blocked by the box. Lucy looked at the tired knights and couldn't help showing an anxious expression.
The current situation is really unfavorable to them.
The improvement in visibility may be a good thing for Dean and others, but if it is placed here, it will make things worse.
Because as the fog dissipates, its inherent interference and covering effect also begins to gradually weaken.
And this also means...
"twitter."
Stop it.
Looking at Lucy's pale face, Xia shook his head as he felt the danger that was approaching.
There is no need to run.
Lucy looked at the knights who seemed to have realized something, and said reluctantly: "...Everyone, hold on a little longer. If the fog suddenly changes so much, something must have happened. If we hold on a little longer, we will definitely be able to wait for rescue!"
After saying the words of encouragement, the atmosphere was still extremely dull. Lucy looked at the knights who were already on alert and sighed, feeling very unsure.
With a lineup like theirs, let alone being attacked by several parties, as long as they were caught up, they would basically be dead.
No matter how much comfort you give, what's the use?
She looked down at her feet, ready to wait with everyone for the Sword of Damocles to fall.
But unexpectedly, just when the atmosphere was tense and everyone was preparing for the fateful announcement, the first thing to break the calm was a call that Lucy was all too familiar with.
"What?"
what?
Lucy raised her head reflexively, and the next second she saw a shadowy doll holding a balloon sticking its head out of the shadow.
Shadow... doll?
Lucy's eyes widened, a look of confusion and disbelief on her face.
She couldn't help but rub her eyes, and began to wonder if she had inhaled too much mist and was beginning to hallucinate.
Otherwise, why would you see the Shadow Doll in such a ghostly place?
"What?"
The demon pet tilted its head, as if it didn't quite understand what Lucy was performing, and looked strange.
However, this does not affect the signal it sends to its companions.
Surging energy was released from the balloon held in the hand of the Shadow Doll, and the rich elemental fluctuations spread outward like a tide, like a lighted signal light in the dark night.
Soon, more little heads squeezed out from around it. Lucy, who had just confirmed that this was not an illusion, paused and her expression gradually became trance-like.
…who am I and where am I?
What are you doing? ! !
