Poor Xi Xi
Chapter 663 Lan Qi Felt the Beauty of Strength
"Meow!"
Lysandra was also caught in the air by the Cat Boss's psychokinetic magic.
Their figures streaked across the night sky of the flower capital, Parier, like three shooting stars.
The surrounding clouds were like soft silk, brushing past them. Each time they passed through a cloud layer, the city lights below seemed like countless stars reflected on the ground, paving a shimmering path for their descent.
"Cat Boss, I'm counting on you! Your psychokinetic magic will work!"
Lan Qi's hair was lifted from his forehead and began to float weightlessly.
Psychokinetic magic was the most wind-like magic. If wind magic could be used for flying or landing, psychokinetic magic could usually do the same.
Falling through the Parier sky, as they approached the ground, the city became clearer. They were surrounded by an endless night scene, sparkling stars like pearls scattered on a black silk cloth, and the seemingly reachable moon radiated a white light, illuminating them.
Lan Qi experienced the ultimate sense of weightlessness, but he wasn't afraid, only holding the cat tightly.
"Meow meow! I don't want to experience any more shipwrecks or plane crashes with you, meow!"
The Cat Boss felt that whenever he went on a trip with this guy, he never landed normally!
On the other side.
Inside the high-altitude floating castle magic airship.
"Are there any psychokinetic or wind mages?"
Executioner Nigel, the sergeant, stood by the broken glass window, looking remotely at the dust and mist on the ground streets below from the terrace.
He didn't expect that the other party could break the reinforced barrier on the glass of the floating castle magic airship in an instant. Perhaps they were stronger than he imagined.
But that's good too. Now that they jumped down, he could take action with peace of mind.
Immediately, Sergeant Nigel didn't wait for his subordinates to bring over a magic mechanical beast for flight, but directly pressed down on his sword hilt and leaped down.
...
North Parier.
On the street.
When the shadows falling from the sky landed, they created a huge commotion, and the sound that echoed through the night sky reverberated in the bustling street, turning into a sudden thunder.
The wide street surface was deeply imprinted by their impact, and the surrounding air was filled with a slight tremor amidst the flying dust.
This sudden sound quickly attracted the attention of passersby in Parier.
This area, just past the northern shore of Parier, was quite prosperous.
Originally, descending from a high altitude was a dangerous act, but they seemed to have consciously avoided the crowd and found a safe landing point.
Curious pedestrians looked over from all directions, watching this incredible situation.
Some residents came out of nearby cafes and office buildings, holding dinner in their hands or still wearing aprons.
They whispered to each other, guessing what had happened.
In the center of the smoke, Lan Qi slowly stood up, holding the cat.
"Ah, psychokinetic magic is indeed not as stable as wind magic."
Lan Qi covered his head, shook it, and muttered to himself.
The Cat Boss's magic strength and psychokinetic control level were limited. It was already good to be able to make an emergency landing from a kilometer above; he couldn't do it as freely as Loren, soaring into the sky and diving into the earth at will.
"Meow meow meow, that scared me to death."
The Cat Boss felt that embarking on a journey with Lan Qi always involved extreme sports.
Just as Lan Qi and the Cat Boss caused a crowd of citizens to gather due to their descent from the sky, another figure on the street suddenly stood up.
The Cat Boss also protected Lysandra, afraid that Lysandra would die directly from the fall, so he didn't dare use free fall to weaken her.
But at this moment, her body seemed to be deteriorating more seriously, surrounded by strange black mist, and the red light in her eyes was intensifying.
Immediately afterward, she let out another deafening scream, full of desperate pain and anger.
The streetlights flickered erratically around Lysandra, and even the pure moonlight seemed pale and weak under this cursed black mist.
This sudden scream instantly caused widespread panic among the surrounding onlookers.
"A demon has gone berserk!"
"Is she cursed?"
"Run!"
In an instant, the expressions of the crowd that had gathered out of curiosity abruptly turned from shock to fear. They scattered and fled, turning into a chaotic tide, trying to avoid the impending threat to their lives!
"Cat Boss, use Taunt."
Lan Qi immediately commanded.
"Meow!"
The Cat Boss knew what Lan Qi meant.
Lan Qi himself didn't have a card slot right now, and the white, blue, and purple cards were all on him.
Extremely frightened, he took out the [Faulty Slow Healing] that Lan Qi had placed on him and threw it to Lysandra.
Immediately, Lysandra's voice became even more shrill, and after twisting her neck, the red light in her eyes locked onto the Cat Boss in Lan Qi's hands.
"Cat Boss, use psychokinesis."
Lan Qi continued to command the Cat Boss to fight Lysandra.
"I can't do it, meow! I can't control her, meow!"
The Cat Boss discovered that [Faulty Slow Healing] seemed to have aggravated Lysandra's berserk state. The Lysandra who could still be controlled before was now completely insane.
Breaking through the Cat Boss's psychokinetic restraints, Lysandra accelerated in an instant and suddenly attacked Lan Qi and the Cat Boss.
But Lan Qi didn't think it mattered. At this time, using a non-special effect seventh-tier wind magic to blow her away would allow him to connect to control and take her away.
The current downtown area was not suitable for staying any longer.
"Meow!"
Just as the Cat Boss was about to use [Storm Dragon's Roar].
A gray-haired, golden-eyed figure materialized in front of Lan Qi, accompanied by spots of light.
She not only interrupted the Cat Boss's skill with the magic power at her fingertips, but also reached out with the other hand at the same time, grabbing Lysandra's forehead, rendering Lysandra unable to move at all.
"..."
Talia closed her eyes, perceiving the source of Lysandra's berserk state more clearly at this moment.
"Ugh!"
Lysandra roared, and although she felt fear from the depths of her soul, she was still constantly trying to resist Talia.
At the same time, on the other side of the street, accompanied by a loud noise, a black meteor-like figure fell, smashing a spiderweb-cracked pit into the ground.
Executioner Nigel, the sergeant, who had been chasing Lan Qi after landing, had already drawn his sword and turned into a black shadow, suddenly attacking Lan Qi!
"No, sister..."
In this instant, Lan Qi's expression became a little hopeless.
He felt like things had gotten a little out of hand.
Now it had turned into the worst kind of melee situation.
Whenever he thought east, Talia would think west.
He almost forgot.
His former partners were Hyperion and Sigrid, teammates who had perfect chemistry with him!
But this time was different.
His companion was a female demon who clashed with him in every way.
Now he might be forced to fight the Senate's executioners in the Parier city center.
Sorry, Professor Borao, it would be a success if he and Tata didn't end up in prison tonight!
The pursuing Executioner Nigel was like a black falcon in a dive, his blade like the scythe of the Grim Reaper, pointing directly at Lan Qi, who was blocking Lysandra and Talia.
"·S·u·r·r·e·n·d·e·r· ·t·o· ·m·e."
Talia didn't know when she had opened her eyes again, and stared straight at Lysandra, word by word, as she spoke.
She was finally certain that Lysandra's contract as a Poson citizen had been broken, or rather, it had been polluted by a curse, becoming the fuse that triggered the demon's self-destruction.
The berserk Lysandra immediately became like a statue, only opening her lifeless eyes, looking at Talia as if she had heard a divine decree. She gradually slumped until she fainted on the ground.
That hideous, distorted demonic appearance gradually softened, until it returned to Lysandra's original beautiful appearance.
"?"
When Nigel's sword tip was about to approach Lan Qi, he suddenly stopped.
Not only did he sense the danger of the woman who had appeared next to Lan Qi at some unknown time, but he also noticed that the cursed demon had regained her composure.
Nigel's pupils contracted continuously, looking incredulously at Lysandra, who was sleeping like a baby on the ground.
For a moment, he wondered if this was an illusion.
There had never been a miracle of a demon who had recovered after a berserk curse had taken effect.
Just like the sins of his own kind that he had personally killed, those that could not be undone, he had prayed countless times.
In the end, all he got was deeper despair and regret.
The squadron riding magic mechanical beasts quickly descended from the sky, surrounding them.
"What's going on?"
"Her berserk state has been suppressed?"
"Could it be that we misjudged her condition? She's not under Palroni's curse?"
The crowd that had not completely dispersed in the distance and the encircling execution force officers were still retreating, but gradually some people observed the situation and raised questions.
Not knowing what had just happened, the confused officers could only look at their superior, Nigel.
But at this moment, Nigel was like he couldn't even hold his sword, his hand trembling constantly.
This exceeded all of Nigel's previous knowledge.
One day, he would die.
Going to that place of belonging where he needed to atone for his sins.
The shadow of the curse had always been like a shadow.
When he wanted to explore the endless questions beneath that abyss, sometimes he felt like everything was repeating itself as if it was yesterday, and no one could change the situation.
Was it because this cursed demon girl's symptoms were different from before, or did someone really have a way to save them?
"..."
Lan Qi stared at Talia.
He didn't understand what Talia had done to cure the legendary Grand Wizard Palroni's curse in the Poson Kingdom so easily.
Professor Borao probably didn't expect that he would study Palroni's magical device for so long, but Tata could directly crack it with brute force.
Although this descent from the sky was a bit unexpected, it seemed that the result had turned out for the better.
"I used the Demon King's power to forcibly order her to become my subordinate, overriding her original contract."
Talia transmitted the message in her mind.
But this was equivalent to forcibly enslaving Lysandra. If she regained her freedom, she might go berserk again. This method was only a temporary solution and did not address the root cause.
If you really wanted to save Lysandra, you still had to find the real culprit who broke her contract.
Moreover, this method of the Demon King's command could only forcibly enslave demons with too great a difference in strength. If they were seventh or eighth-tier demons, it would be impossible to control them in this way.
"..."
Lan Qi fell into deep thought.
When this curse was born a hundred years ago, it was already after the end of the war between humans and demons.
There was no so-called Great Demon in the Poson Kingdom.
For the humans and demons of the Poson Kingdom, the real Demon King was already a dimension beyond comprehension.
Although Talia might be the most disgraceful Demon King of all time.
Suddenly, he felt Talia's gaze.
But she really got my six marks with her own ability, she's so beautiful and powerful.
Lan Qi thought to himself.
Only then did Talia slowly shift her gaze.
Not far away on the street, the executioner Nigel, holding his sword, finally moved again after a long silence.
"Duke Tiffany, a little change has occurred. The suspected cursed demon has stabilized. What should I do?"
He slowly sheathed his dark red long sword, inserted it into the scabbard at his waist, and picked up the communication magic device again to report.
The other end of the communication was silent for a long time.
"Use your own judgment."
Duke Tiffany replied with an order and hung up.
"..."
Nigel looked at Lysandra on the ground, unmoving.
He was very hesitant, as if he didn't know how to deal with this situation.
