Looking at the still effective defensive barrier, Eloline felt relieved. Doris, who was hiding in the basement, could hear the sounds of fighting outside. Even though she was inside the barrier, the explosion just now caused her to lose her balance and fall to the ground. But not long after, Eloline's voice sounded from outside: "Mother, I have dealt with the attacker." When Doris heard Eloline's voice, she immediately used her identity verification barrier to open it. Seeing the familiar figure of Eloline, Doris rushed over and hugged her. "Mother, I'm glad you're okay." "I'll be fine." Doris looked around, "Where's your sister? Isn't she with you?" "She went to rescue her father. We are separated for the time being." Eloline couldn't help but want to catch up with Licaro. She was not at all confident in letting Licaro act alone. Doris said, "Lin, go find your father and your sister. I'm safe hiding here."
"Well……" Eloline wasn't sure if there would be a second wave of attackers, so her mother might still be in danger. But when it comes to the risk factor, Licaro and Wilfin outside are more likely to be in danger. At this moment, Eloline wished she could be split into two. "Don't hesitate, hurry up." Doris urged. "Please remember, no matter who you are, do not open the barrier again." Just now, when Eloline called her mother, her mother immediately opened the barrier. Although she was indeed the real person, if the voice was disguised by the enemy, the consequences would be disastrous. "I understand. I won't open the door again even if I hear your voices." "Well, take care of yourself, mother." Eloline left the basement and watched the barrier re-engage. She did not leave immediately, but closed her eyes and felt the concentration point of magic in the ruins. Today the house has been razed to the ground, but it is unknown whether the staff she kept in the room on the second floor survived. Fortunately, Eloline found the location of her staff, and after removing the construction debris, she discovered that her staff was intact. This may be the effect of the previous solid magic pattern. Without hesitation, after getting the staff, Eloline can finally cast decent dragon language magic. "[Detection Barrier] - [Secret] - [Warning]" (Dragon language) She used half of the magic power of her staff to set up a secret detection barrier at the entrance to the basement. If someone approaches, Eloline will be warned. As long as she does not leave the range of the city of Ed Fallon, she will be within the warning range.
It was really unfortunate today. If father had come home earlier today, the family would not have to be separated. Eloline was worried about her mother, Licaro and her father, and in the end she had to make a choice between the two. The environment where the mother is should be the safest. Eloline has just explored the defensive barrier in the basement. Even if she attacks with all her strength, it can hold out for a long time. The most important thing now is to find Licaro and her father. Speaking of which, what about the many strong men who are responsible for guarding the Duke’s mansion? Could they have all been taken care of? But now is not the time to think about that. "【Fly】" (Dragon language) Holding the staff, Eloline spread the wings behind her, and then flew directly into the air. This dragon magic can grant her the ability to fly in her human form. The black rain hit Eloline's body, making her frown. Apart from the color, this kind of rain seems to be no different from ordinary rain. But to be on the safe side, she still opened a shield for herself to prevent herself from being splashed by more rain. By flying, Eloline can reach the City Lord's Mansion at the fastest speed. Damn it, why didn’t I think of using magic to fly before? I was so busy chasing Licaro that I even forgot about the staff in a hurry. ------------------------------------- 【Not long ago】 Licaro ran desperately towards the City Lord's Mansion. She used the magic power of the wind element to speed herself up. Her speed was so fast that her afterimage could be seen. An arrow suddenly shot from behind her, but fortunately it was bounced off by the magic shield on her body. There are enemies! Licaro looked back, but in the pouring rain and fog she didn't see the enemy for a moment. There was no time to think about anything now. She simply ignored the attacker behind her and continued running towards the City Lord's Mansion. The City Lord's Mansion and the Duke's Residence are both in the inner city, and are actually not too far apart. In less than two minutes, Licaro arrived at the City Lord's Mansion. In the past, there would be many people coming in and out of the City Lord’s Mansion even at night, but now it is as silent as death. Licaro became more alert, holding the magic gun in one hand and gathering magic power with the other. She is always prepared to deal with any sudden enemy that appears. The silence of the City Lord's Mansion made Licaro feel very strange. Even if it was attacked, why were there no bodies of the guards? There was no blood or signs of a fight on the ground.
The city lord's mansion was very dark, but it blocked out the sound of rain outside. Licaro ran anxiously to where her father usually was, and did not encounter any emergencies along the way. "Father!" Licaro saw her father lying on the table, motionless, which made her heart beat violently. The feeling of uneasiness exploded directly in her heart. She walked forward tremblingly, and tears came out prematurely. "Father……?" Licaro stopped walking and stood still. There was a large pool of blood on the chair where my father was sitting, and there was a dagger stuck in his heart, and the blood had not yet dried. She's late. "..." Licaro felt like her brain had gone blank. She instantly lost the ability to think and stood there in a daze, unable to believe what she was seeing. call out! An arrow shot from behind hit Licaro's arm. The arrow had a barb and the severe pain brought her back to her senses. Her magic shield actually lost its effect and was directly broken through by the arrow. Licaro turned around blankly and looked at the attacker in black robe, and the tears in her eyes stopped flowing. The intense grief in her heart turned into anger. Licaro broke the arrow on her arm and stared at the attacker with extremely terrifying eyes, as if she wanted to skin her alive. But what she didn't expect was that the attacker actually pulled off the black robe on his body. "This is impossible……" Likalo's eyes widened, because the person in front of her was... herself. No, maybe the attacker deliberately turned into his appearance to confuse himself. The attacker, who had the same face as Likalo, slowly walked forward with an evil smile on his face. Licaro didn't think about anything and fired several shots at her with the magic gun in her hand until she ran out of bullets. However, the bullet seemed to penetrate the liquid directly, passed through the attacker's body, and embedded in the wall behind. Just then, a familiar figure rushed in. "What's the situation now!" Eloline finally arrived, running as fast as she could. "Lin, father, father she..."
[Likaro] suddenly threw herself into Eloline's arms and cried. "Lin, she's not me! She's a fake!" But no matter how the real Licaro shouted, Eloline seemed to hear nothing. At this moment, Eloline looked at her father lying on the table, and then saw Licaro crying in front of her, and she suddenly understood everything. She hugged Licaro tightly, but then she felt a sudden pain in her heart. Eloline looked at Licaro in front of her with some disbelief. The dagger in her hand was piercing into her heart. "Why……" She didn't understand why Licaro attacked her, and she didn't understand why her body became so fragile. Then she soon discovered that she had become an ordinary person. Power, any power of being a dragon no longer exists. She realized that the Licaro in front of her might not be real, so she tried to raise the magic gun, but she no longer had any strength. With a thud, Eloline fell to the ground and lay motionless. Lika Luo licked the blood on the dagger, looked at Lika Luo with a smile and said: "Did you see it? This is the taste of killing. The person you love is dead too." Likalo's emotions completely exploded. She resented why she just stood there and watched, but when she wanted to move, she couldn't control her body. "Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu" The strong emotional fluctuations caused the magic spring in her body to become restless. Licaro knew very well what the consequences would be, but all the people important to her had died, so what was the point for her to live? Now she just wanted the attacker in front of her to be buried with her. However, the attacker simply snapped his fingers, and the magic power in Licaro's body immediately calmed down. "Don't be too naughty." The attacker slowly walked up to Likalo, pinched her cheeks with his hands and gently pulled them apart. Licaro found that she had no ability to resist at all. Now she had become a wooden man and could not move at all. But she still looked at the attacker who had turned into her appearance with hatred. "Hahaha, this is really interesting." The attacker covered Licaro's eyes with his hands, plunging her into darkness. Then Likalo felt her consciousness gradually dissipating, and the last words she heard were - "This is just a fun prank, hehe." ………… Licaro got up from the ground and rubbed her dizzy head. There was no attacker around her anymore, and she could control her body again.
But when Licaro came to her senses, tears began to flow uncontrollably again. "Hmm...what's going on..." Eloline sat up from the ground, and Licaro looked at the familiar person in front of her with some disbelief. But she stepped back and began to mobilize the magic power in her body. This is most likely what the attacker has transformed into. There were many books scattered on the ground. Licaro took a quick look and found that they were bought in the library today. She looked out the window suddenly. Although it was already evening, the sky was very clear and there was no black rain at all.
