Chapter 96: concern

　　 The demons who rushed into this narrow alley were completely swept away, and the ones rushing in the front were blown up into the sky by the power of this mixed spell, and fell to the ground after being torn apart. For a time, the rolling head and broken limbs were spread on the ground, and the walls on both sides of the alley were covered with plasma.
"……All right."
　　Villette let out a breath.
　　 "Have you seen it? Just like this, we will definitely be able to stick to it."
　　 Under the encouragement of the girl and the strength and character demonstrated by Willett and Duncan David by example, the fear and threat kept away from this group of people for a while.
　　……
　　 "Miss Edward, are you telling the truth?"
　　 The others all breathed a sigh of relief, some took out the map, and some took the time to rest behind them. But the young man who worked with her to dispel the evil spirits still had a serious expression, and he whispered to the blond girl beside him to confirm.
"......what do you mean?"
　　 "Of course it is a rescue."
　　 Duncan David stared at her profile.
　　 "Will someone on the top floor really send someone to rescue us?"
Willett was silent for a while, then released a shining electric light, knocking down an evil demon that leaped like an ape from the roof. The blue and white electric sparks jumped on the "companions" around the monster, and finally hit the original. A dark coke was left on the ground. Then, she said in a voice that only the two of them could hear.
　　 "I did send out the signal when I found out that the situation was not right. But whether they received it and whether they would come to rescue us is another matter."
"……no surprise."
　　 The other party sighed.
"Let’s not say that the ladder system is probably closed now. If I were the one who planned this attack, I would definitely not forget to release the magic that isolates communication.'Secret communication' cannot be transmitted that far. He will not let it. We have the opportunity to seek help from the outside world."
"Yes."
　　Villie nodded characteristically.
　　 "The only chance we have left is to break through the tide of corpses, go to the location of the ladder, and manually turn on the system."
　　 They were originally top-level residents, so they can pass the certification without additional permission. And as long as you get there, you can get the protection of the most complete defense measures. There are two alchemy golems made by Master Peter of the Rasputin school, which are enough to isolate the lower demons of flesh and blood.
"I say this to everyone just to encourage them and prevent them from giving up hope, so I said that the rescue at the top will arrive before tomorrow. But in fact, I hope that I can break through the siege and return to the ladder before tomorrow. ."
　　 Duncan David looked at her with a strange look, and said with emotion after a long time.
　　 "Miss Edward, you are actually better than I thought... You can still remain calm in this situation, which makes you feel ashamed."
　　 The praise from friends of the opposite made the girl a little uncomfortable, she smiled and shook her head.
"If you want to serve the school as the chief student in the future, this level is not enough. Like my friend Miss Miller, she can be a good assistant to the wizard leader if she performs well in all aspects. I am still too far away from her. Far away."
　　 She is not talking politely.
　　Shi Kodi is Virlet’s best friend and a goal she has been chasing after.
Calm, clever, shrewd, with a keen observation ability to perceive people's hearts... If this kind of person is too sharp, it is easy to be offensive, but Shikoudi's words and deeds are always just right, not only do not make people feel that Hate it, but it's easier to get a good feeling.
　　 The young man's expression became a little strange.
"what happened?"
　　 "No, you are right."
　　 He sighed slightly.
　　 "Miss Miller is indeed the best wizard among the younger generation on the magic tower. Compared to her, everyone else will only be eclipsed."
　　The short conversation came to an end, and they once again began to clear the piled up corpses.
　　……
　　 The work of dispelling demons is not as hard as she imagined.
　　Villette’s original idea was that she thought that the dark wizard who drove the demons behind the scenes was aimed at them, so she mobilized a large army to chase and intercept them.
　　 If this is the case, even if they retreat here, this fragile line of defense will still encounter unimaginable pressure. The black wizard is likely to assemble a troop of walking corpses to besiege this place. Even if they can make continuous substitutions, everyone’s magic and physical strength will be quickly exhausted in the process...
　　 But now it seems that her worries have not become a reality.
The person manipulating the demon--he or she seems to be only in order to control the entire underlying situation, so that the group of walking corpses will gather to kill or drive away all the enemies that can be seen on the street. Chasing them is probably for the same reason.
　　 If you don't get hot-headed and confront the opponent head-on, the dark wizard's eyes may not be focused on them.
　　... However, the crux of the problem is that, as far as the current situation is concerned, it is almost impossible for them to break through.
　　Once they leave the house and leave the alley, the number of enemies they encounter and the intensity of the battle will increase significantly. Every time you push a street forward, you will quickly fall into a difficult situation.
　　 From afternoon to evening, they tried several times, but none of them succeeded. They were just wasting time and energy. The frustration caused by failure is inevitable. Everyone's face is filled with gloom and irritability.
　　 It wasn't until sunset Xishan that the attacking momentum of the demons gradually declined.
　　Villette guessed that this was because the dark wizard who manipulated them behind the scenes was preparing to rest. The walking dead can kill people endlessly, but the manipulators are just like them.
　　 This was originally the best opportunity, but unfortunately, her companions have also been exhausted in taking turns guarding the post, and there is no strength to move forward.
　　 The witch originally wanted to urge them to continue fighting in order to survive; but Duncan David stopped her. He said that the current situation is indeed not suitable for continuing to try to break through.
Using flying skills alone, Willett quietly went to the outskirts of the street to investigate. She found that the closer to the destination, the greater the number of demons. In the wide square below the ladder, there were countless walking dead swaying The ground is squeezed together, undulating like waves on the sea, looking spectacular.
　　 The demons are layered on top of each other, rubbing their shoulders, as if they were holding a grand banquet.
　　 The witch realized that with the current state of her companions, it was indeed impossible to rush into the corpse tide and then retreat, so she had no choice but to give up in the end.
　　 "Tomorrow, I can only wait until tomorrow to see if there is a turnaround..."
　　 Willett returned to the blacksmith's shop, looked at some of his companions who had been lying exhaustedly on the floor, and sighed slightly.
　　 What if the situation still doesn’t improve tomorrow? She knew that except for herself and Duncan David, everyone else had expectations for the illusory "rescue", so they could maintain a relatively optimistic attitude; but she who knew the truth could not do it.
　　 Sometimes being too sensible may not be a good thing, especially when facing difficulties, leaders who know everything often have to bear a heavier burden than others. Since four hours ago, Villette's slender eyebrows have been tightly furrowed and have never been loosened.
　　 "You go and rest for a while."
　　 Duncan said to him.
　　 "But..."
　　Villette, of course, can't sleep with such peace of mind like others. In addition to seizing the time to restore magic power through meditation, she has to find a way to arrange a series of warning measures near the blacksmith shop. Before mastering the area barrier spell, this is a required course for every official wizard.
　　 "It's okay. I just took the opportunity of this group of monsters to retreat, I cleaned the surrounding area again, and I have erected a ‘barrier’."
　　Villette looked out the window, and found a faint halo of blue electric light, covering one end of the alley, and enclosing all the places where he could see.
　　 The girl blinked, not knowing what to say for a while.
　　 Of course she can recognize the origin of this magic.
　　"Electromagnetic Barrier".
　　 can not only make the invading enemies into a paralyzed state where they cannot move, and even be electrocuted into charcoal, it can also provide a warning effect for the wizard who releases the spell. It is a very practical spell.
　　 But what really surprised her was that ~EbookFREE.me~ The level of range barrier magic is above level five without exception. The other party's ability to display the electromagnetic barrier means that he...
　　 "You are already a high wizard?"
　　 Duncan David smiled and nodded, his tone understatement, as if he was talking about a trivial thing.
　　 "I just broke through two days ago."
　　Wellett was silent for a moment, with a smile on his face.
"Congratulations."
　　 "Thank you. Besides..."
　　 Duncan seemed to hesitate for a while before whispering.
　　 "Don't mind, Miss Edward, I think you will catch up soon."
　　 "Well, it's okay, I don't care."
　　 The fringe-like long blonde hair swayed slightly in the wind with the movement of the girl's head.
　　 "That's good. Next, you can go to the back bedroom and rest for a while. If there is any accident, I will notify everyone in time."
　　Villette nodded at him, turned and left the window.
　　……
　　 As the only female member of the team, it is naturally somewhat convenient at this time. She did not sleep together like the others, but stayed alone in the back bedroom.
　　 Willett lay on the dirty bed with her clothes, watching the silent darkness quietly.
　　 A few minutes ago, what Duncan David said, and what was faintly revealed in his manners and behavior, came to mind again clearly. Although he tried very hard to cover it up, the girl could still feel it, that it was a kind of lofty, almost pityful gaze... This made her unforgettable for a long time.
　　 "Sure enough, I..."
　　 She bit her lip tightly, a faint blankness and pain between her lips and teeth.
