Three Philosophical Questions for Travelers

Isrit and the Bronze Tree, [-]

The light flickered, and the witches chanted scriptures again.Ultralan spoke an ancient spell, and a huge map of the stars and the moon appeared above people's heads.This is underground, and Xingyue can't be seen, so Aozhuolan has to summon the phantom of Xingyue to help her cast spells.

Strengthening the seal requires three rounds of casting, and the first round of spells will be chanted quickly.After the stars and the moon began to twinkle, Ultralan and the other witches stopped.The red-eyed witch named Hela said, "The idol told me it was in pain."

"I heard that too. The seal is loose this time, and we're going to plan for the worst," Aldrom said.

All the witches nodded resolutely, and Estherite also decided to share troubles with everyone.

Then the ceremony entered the second stage, the stars and the moon began to twinkle, and the light fell on the statue.The fiend's blood on the statue began to boil, turning into a fetid vapor.By this point, many witches had already shown their physical strength, their brows were furrowed and their heads were sweating profusely.Estelle was a little tired, but she could hold on.

At the third step, Ultralan chanted hymns, and the statues of the ancient gods glowed, shining in the dark night.Everything seemed to be going smoothly, and Estherite also breathed a sigh of relief.

But the good times didn't last long, the light dimmed in a blink of an eye, and the ferocious blood reappeared—this blood overflowed from the statue's body, which shocked Isrit.

Ultrablue called a halt to the ceremony.

"Let's take a break and do it again in a while." She said to the witches, "The pollution of the fierce demon has penetrated into the body of the god, and we can't finish it in a moment."

So they stopped to drink water and eat.It is already night outside now, but there is always a certain amount of light here, neither bright nor dark, like daytime on a cloudy day.

After they rested, the second round of exorcism began.The second ceremony is divided into three parts like the last one, and all witches need to work together to complete it.Under the leadership of Aozhulan, everyone chanted scriptures and exorcised demons again.However, it failed this time. At the last step, blood flowed from the inside of the statue of the ancient god, and the ceremony was forced to end.

So the witches rested again and exorcised the demon again.Ultralan is determined to complete the seal reinforcement today.In this way, the witches exorcised, rested, exorcised again, and rested... a total of seven times, but they still did not complete the exorcism ceremony.By the end, people are exhausted.

According to the time, it is already late at night, and everyone has been on the road all day, and they are already exhausted.Now continuous spell casting makes them physically and mentally exhausted.The only ones who can still stand at this moment are Aozhuolan and Yisruite.Isrit felt that many witches were watching her, and she thought to herself: Maybe I should sit down too and pretend that I am very tired.I'm being too loud.

Ultrablue took a sip of water, then wiped off his sweat and caught his breath.After a while she asked Isrit, "How do you feel, Isrit?"

Estelle didn't want to lie to her mentor, she wiped the sweat from her forehead and said, "I still have some magic power."

"That's right, I didn't see the wrong person." Aozhuolan showed a motherly smile, "We two do it again?"

"Can we both do it?"

"Better than doing nothing."

What Alzhulan said is very reasonable, it is better to do it than not to do it.So this time, other witches acted as guards on the outside, and the main casters were only Esrit and Ultralan.The master and apprentice stood shoulder to shoulder in front of the voodoo doll, and Aldram said, "We must succeed, Isrit."

"Yes, Lord Ultramarine," she said.

Ultralan chanted scriptures, and the star and moon map appeared above their heads again.This time Esraite obviously felt the pressure, because the two of them had to operate a magic circle of ten people.But since there was no interference from other people's magic power, Estherite also felt that it was easy to use the magic power, so this time the exorcism was very smooth.

Soon came the last step, and this time Estherite really felt the evil blood in the ancient god's body.She realized that she couldn't expel this kind of thing with her own magic power.Aozhuolan obviously succumbed to the facts, she sighed helplessly, and said, "Isrit, give up, we are not its opponent."

Isrit asked: "Then what should we do?"

No one among the witches spoke, and everyone was silent, with heavy and peaceful expressions on their faces.Estelle realized that this was not the first time these people had encountered this kind of problem, and they knew what to do.

At this time Ultralan picked up a witch doll and said, "It's nothing more than adding another person to the doll." After saying this, Ultralan took off his coat, tiara and all the metal jewelry on his body, and put Shoes were also taken off.She kneels in front of the statue wearing only a single garment.Isrit asked: "Mentor, what are you..."

"My spirit will be integrated with the tree elf ancient god, so that I can purify the seal. After a year, my body will become like this doll." She said very calmly, "In the next ten years, The seal can be calm."

"What?" Estelle stared wide-eyed, "Is there no better way?"

Ultralan remained silent, and Estelle looked at the other witches again, and saw that everyone was silent, like a piece of sculpture.

Although Isrit has not known her mentor for a long time, Ultralan has always been very kind to her.The Countess treated Isrit like a family member, taught her witchcraft, and took care of her life.Therefore, Estherite is very grateful to her and has affection for her like a family member.Now this person was going to turn into a voodoo doll in front of her eyes, and Estelle couldn't accept it.

"We can try to exorcise the demon again!" she said loudly, "Maybe we are all too tired, wait until tomorrow, we can..."

Ultralan shook her head and said, "No, tomorrow will be too late. Today is the peak of the tide of magic in my body, and tomorrow I will only be weaker." At this point, she put her hands together and raised her head above her head, "Ah Lianxina, Wilhana, Goddess Xingyue, answer my call!" Xingyue appeared above her head, the ceremony had already begun, and no one could stop her.Isrit knew that if she forcibly disrupted the ceremony now, it would hurt Lord Ultralan instead.So she could only watch and weep silently.

The other witches also prayed, the stars and the moon illuminated the sky, and the cool and holy light enveloped the witches.Under this light, the statue also became awe-inspiring.

When Ultralan finished chanting the spell, her body began to melt like a snowman.It was a very terrifying scene. She turned around and leaned against the statue of the ancient god, her body gradually melting and seeping into the statue.At this time, she suddenly said:

"Israet, come here, I have something important to tell you."

Isrit and the Bronze Tree, [-]

Isrit and the Bronze Tree, [-]

"Yes, my lord!" Yisrit hurriedly walked over.At this time Aozhulan said: "Put down your magic weapon, my magic power is too fragile, it will hurt me."

Isrit did as she did, taking off the gloves and putting them on the ground.The witch next to her immediately picked it up, "Don't put such a precious thing on the ground." The witch said to Estelle.

Esritre came to Aldram with bare hands, and her mentor's back had completely penetrated the statue, as if she had fallen into a swamp.There was still a quiet smile on her face, and seeing this smile, Isrit felt her heart ache.

"Isrit, you are my best student, you are a genius among witches."

Estherite nodded, but did not speak.

"After I die, you will inherit the title and become the king of Hummingbird City. You will inherit everything from me," she said.

Isrit nodded again and said, "I may not be able to do well, but I will do my best. I will never forget you, Master."

As the cold wind blew past, the bronze branches made screeching noises. Isrit felt her feet shaking, and she had goose bumps all over her body.At this moment the smile on Ultralan's face changed, and she said in a strange, deep voice:

"Dare you really believe it?"

At this moment, Aozhuolan's silver hair suddenly burst out, entangled Isrit like a snake.Then her face twisted, her expression was ferocious like a demon, and a terrible green light radiated from her eyes.The light shot into the pupil of Isrit, and at the same time she heard Uldralan say: "Isrit! My dear apprentice, the person who will sacrifice today is you, not me."

Eastraet suddenly realized this.She felt like her soul was being sucked out of Aldram, and she knew she had been tricked.All this is a trap designed by Ultrablue!She tried to break free from the ultramarine hair, but it was tighter than a wet fishing net, and she couldn't break free.Then she called out to the other witches for help, but she was ignored.Apparently, the disciples of Ultralan all knew about this, and only Esriette herself was the victim.

In the end, she had no choice but to use two schools of witchcraft.She can't use Xingyue witchcraft, but she can still use liberal witchcraft.She quickly sifted through her mind for useful witchcraft, and finally she found that she could only use the one she was least proficient at.

I have to imagine myself as a bear so I can break free.

It will not be easy!Isrit is a thin girl, she is too far from a bear.But she has no time, she can only think that she is a bear - I have the strength of a bear, the muscles of a bear, the fur of a bear, the claws of a bear...

But she can't lie to herself!She's a human, not a bear!She didn't become infinitely powerful, but was entangled even tighter by Aozhuolan.The silver hair is like spider silk, the witch is like a spider, and Isrit is melting like prey on a spider's web.She felt that her spirit was gradually becoming chaotic, and she couldn't think anymore, only Ao Zhulan's wild laughter remained in her ears.

No!You can't take my life, let alone kill my child!The thought lifted her spirits, sending the tide of magic within her surging.This time she clenched her hands into fists, trying to summon the berserk air elemental.An ice-cold air mass condensed in the palm of her hand, and the storm blew across her palm like a blade.And that's when Ultramarine laughed and said, "Small tricks!"

The silver-haired witch uttered the truth, and Estherite suddenly felt in a trance. When she came back to her senses, the air mass had disappeared.She had no choice but to cry, "Why me? Why did you hurt my child?"

Aozhuolan said to her: "Isrit, I will not hurt your child, I want to exchange bodies with you, your child will be fine - relax, relax!" She suddenly changed into the old With that kind of gentle tone, and the warmth like spring in her eyes, Isrit felt the hatred in her heart disappearing, and she knew that it was Ultralan who was using the "sedation technique" on her.

"After we exchanged souls, I will continue to lead the witch with your body. Do you know that the magic power in your body and your understanding of witchcraft are far above mine. When I get your body, I will be able to lead the witch." The renaissance of academics can even make academics and liberals shake hands-what a great peace! What a great initiative!"

"Nonsense!" Isrit screamed, "You can't bewitch me!" As she spoke, she gathered her magic power again, but Uldralan continued to use magic on her, hypnotizing her with words.

"Isrit, my child, how can I have the heart to hurt you? You are just 'dead for a while' that's all, when I understand the real tree elf magic, I will come back and revive you." She transformed into silver silk Make a soft hand, caressing Isrit's face.

So soft, so gentle, Islet looked into her eyes and thought, just like her mother.

"I will not hurt your child, I will love him as much as you - even more than you! Do you know how much I want a child? Isrit!" Tears welled up in Aozhuolan's eyes, "I want to be a mother, please help me! I will raise him up and make him an indomitable man or a beautiful lady."

"You..." Isrit's spirit was eroded to the point of piercing by the magic, and she couldn't think of a single thought of fighting Ultralan in her mind.

"Isrit! Don't be obsessed, think about other people, think about your children, think about this world!" Ao Zhulan said emotionally, "Your sacrifice can save countless people! You can benefit all A witch, you can save a country, even the world! Oh, you can save your child, and I will teach him magic! I will be the Witch King, and he is the son of the Witch King!"

Isrit burst into tears and said, "No! I want to avenge my husband, I won't die like this!"

"I will take revenge on your behalf, Isrit." Aozhuolan smiled reassuringly, "When I become you, I will get your memory. I will inherit your hatred and your will. Those things that you can’t do, I will do for you, I am the king of Hummingbird City, and I am also the leader of the academic school, as long as I want to do—” She twisted her face fiercely, “—I can do it! "

Isrit couldn't beat her.

Isrit found herself defeated both mentally and intellectually.

That's all, she thought, that's all, let it be over.Let her take care of my child, let her avenge me, I'm going to another world to meet my husband, I...

"No one can harm the spirit of the Earth Mother!" The orc's roar tore apart Isrit's thought. As soon as she raised her head, she saw a spear flying towards her!

It's iguana and ginkgo!

Isrit and the Bronze Tree, [-]

Isrit and the Bronze Tree, [-]

The spear flew towards Ultralan's forehead, and the witch made a big net with her silver hair, and entangled the spear with a swipe.Then she roared, "Kill these orcs!"

Isrit didn't know where these orcs came from, they might have been following the witch.Bai Guo has learned some witchcraft, maybe she memorized the spell of Ultralan, so she opened the door and slipped in.But that doesn't matter anymore, I saw the iguana bravely charged into the witch, roaring and waving its double knives.Then, Bai Guo also brandished an ax and joined the battlefield.

They are brave orc warriors, but the witches present are all academic elites. These people hold magic tools and possess all kinds of strange witchcraft.The bearded witch chanted the earth spirit spell, causing a swamp to appear out of nowhere on the ground; then the blue-skinned witch called for poisonous snakes, and many snakes came out of her sleeves and trouser legs, and attacked the orcs; the dwarf witch screamed Howling, with bristles sprouting from her whole body, and black and hard claws growing out of her hands and feet, she turned into a wild beast to kill the orcs...

Ultralan's apprentices were numerous and powerful, and each possessed supernatural powers, and the orcs were quickly defeated.But at the same time, the second round of battle between Isrit and Ultralan also started.Just now, the iguana's flying spear interrupted Ultralan's magic and distracted her. At that moment, Esriette felt that the restraint on her body was much weaker.

At this time, she suddenly remembered what Geralte had taught her back then. She remembered that the crazy witch said: You should imagine yourself as the closest thing to you!Estelle, what you most resemble, you imagine yourself to be!

yes!I'm so far from a big bear, how can I imagine myself as a bear?

So what do I imagine myself to be?What am I like?

a butterfly?A doe?A black cat or a reed?

She didn't have time to think about it, Aldrom's hair restrained her again, the silver-haired witch laughed wildly, and her hair inserted into Isrit's neck and scalp, she suddenly felt delirious.

"No!" Isrit shouted loudly.

What am I supposed to imagine myself as?

I'm a witch, I'm a skinny girl, I'm a mother seven months pregnant, I'm a widow who has lost her husband... What is there like me?

I……

I……

Do not bind your mind, Isrit!You can become anything!Even if it's something that doesn't exist!Geralte's warning echoed in her ears.Isrit suddenly realized, she was muttering to herself:

"I am the vengeful ghost, the sworn enemy of all liars and traitors."

In an instant, the liberal power in her body boiled, and this imagination was so real that it was equal to reality.Then the vengeful ghost let out a scream—her hair stood on end, the nails on her hands and feet bulged, and her veins protruded from her face and neck like earthworms.Her eyes were red, and she roared angrily, "Liar! You liar!" She grabbed Aozhuolan's hair and yanked it hard—"Crack!"

Ao Zhuolan's hair was pulled out forcibly by a section!Her silver hair is different from ordinary people. The hair of ordinary people grows on the scalp. If you pull it hard, it will be pulled out by the roots, exposing a small hair follicle. , these things are connected to her head, allowing her to manipulate her hair.At this moment, Aozhuolan screamed loudly, his head was covered with blood, and the picture was horrible.

"You evil witch!" Aozhuolan gritted his teeth and said, "Stop struggling! We will exchange souls soon, and all my pain will be borne by you!"

"Really?" Isrit pierced Ultralan's abdomen with her claws, and then stirred vigorously inside.But Ultralan laughed out loud, and then a mass of silvery thread emerged from her wound, entangled in Isrit's hand. "My gut is rotten!" she said.

Esritre bit her neck with sharp teeth, while Aldram wrapped her in more silver threads.

Isrit hypnotized herself again: I am a demon from hell, I should have fire and hot oil!So hot oil poured out of her body, soaking the silk thread, and then the firelight shot out from her eyes, lighting a big fire on both of them.

This time Ao Zhuolan screamed, the silk thread burned violently, burning along the wound in her abdominal cavity and burning into her stomach.Isrit ripped open the silver thread, then raised her sharp claws and said, "Go to hell!"

But at this moment, something hit the back of her head hard.Her vision was in a trance for a while, and she was almost dizzy.Isrit turned her head suddenly, and saw the witches were pointing at her with their wands, and the ginkgo and the iguana had already fallen to the ground.

The iguana had a broken arm and its back was scorched, emitting black smoke; the ginkgo was tied to the ground by more than a dozen vines, moaning in pain.Both of their weapons were also broken.If ten vs. ten orcs may still have a chance of winning, but two vs. ten is too difficult for them.

The iguana was lying on the ground dying, gasping for breath, spitting blood foam from his mouth; Ginkgo raised a hand and shouted: "Mom! Go!"

The bearded witch stepped on Bai Guo's hand with her foot, and crushed it hard with her heel.Bai Guo screamed.

"Let her go!" Isrit said and raised her long claws towards the witches, the huge force struck again, the blue-skinned witch pointed at her with a magic weapon, and said in a high voice: "The water of the place, the water of the sky, The water spirit is colorless, to purify the evil spirits!" Then the white light enveloped Isrit, and she suddenly felt pain like scorching all over her body.She thought to herself: This is the holy word to purify the devil!I must give up my identity as a devil, or I will be burned to death by this scalding water.

In desperation, she had to lift the incarnation magic.This time she completely lost the ability to fight the witches.Isrit was already exhausted from casting spells continuously before and the last round of fighting.She looked around at the witches and said, "You vile people! Does stealing someone's soul and murdering a mother earn you any honor? Honor the academic witches?"

No one responded to her taunt, and these witches were like logs.At this time Ultralan wrapped her hair around Isrit once again, and this time she had no strength to break free again.

The iguana struggled to stand up, but was kicked down by the witch.The witch cast a spell on him and turned him into a goat.Immediately, Bai Guo was enchanted by witchcraft and turned into an ugly big mouse.Then a witch released the cat, and made the cat run after the mouse.

This time the sour-faced witches burst out laughing.Weird laughter echoed in Pantoras, and in Isrit's opinion, this sound was more terrifying than the scream of the ogre.

"It's time to end, Isrit." Aldralan said to her.

Surrounded by these people, Estelle thought to herself: It is better to fight to the death than to kneel down and wait for death.She still has medicine powder and spells in her hands. Although these things can't help her break through, they may be able to pull her back.

At this time, the air seemed to cool down, and there was a dead silence around, only the witches kept laughing, and the laughter seemed even harsher here; Estherite felt a little strange, but she couldn't express that feeling.Faintly, she saw a reddish mist filling the surroundings, and she also saw...

At this time, a familiar voice came from above the head, and the man said:

"What's the matter, ma'am?"

She raised her head and saw the man in black robe squatting on top of the stone sculpture, his blue eyes were brighter than the stars and the moon.

Chapter 21: The Razor and the Witch-King, I

Razor crouched on top of the statue, looking down at the men below.
