Chapter 228 Waiting

"How long are we going to stand here?" Alai looked at the demons making strange screams and rushing towards the distance. Although they knew that they were summoned by cheese, they still felt uncomfortable. This is also

Normal things, for mages, demons are very convenient creatures.

They have intelligence and can communicate; they have strength and can be entrusted with important tasks; they have many types and are highly selective, and the sacrifices they want can be adjusted according to them. There are few servants in this world that can compare with them.

But this is only the caster's point of view, the wizard's point of view.

Wizards know many things that ordinary people don't understand, those magics, those knowledges, those crucial information that can influence the situation. But they paid a lot for this, one of which is losing the ability to understand the world as ordinary people.

, when they devoted themselves to the vast sea of ​​knowledge, they forgot how dangerous the things they came into contact with were good or bad, or evil. They didn't care. As long as these methods and knowledge can bring practical benefits, they can accept it.

.This kind of cold examination is what they call objectivity.

Objectivity has its advantages. When everyone is obsessed with the right and wrong in front of them, and is forced to move forward by the various chains that have been wrapped around them since birth, objectivity can give them the opportunity to break out of the chains and weigh the pros and cons.

An objective wizard, even if his mastery of magic is not enough, the difference in his way of thinking is enough to make him stand out.

However, keeping oneself under an objective way of thinking for a long time will often make people fall into the opposite extreme of being bound by chains, which is extreme self-interest and resulting indifference to others. This is a common problem among spell casters.

This is also the reason why they are disliked. Even if the personal interests of wizards are temporarily the same as those of a certain group, a certain settlement or even a certain country, they are not worthy of long-term trust.

Only such people will unscrupulously summon demons as their servants. They only care about their own convenience and are so arrogant that they think they can completely control demons, ignoring the possible consequences of such a terrible summoning and the demons.

His own evil qualities. Demons are not of this world.

Creatures in the world, they have irrepressible malice towards everything in this world. Countless people have tried to prove that there are a few individuals among demons who are not hostile to this world, but these people failed without exception in the end.

Demons are called demons for a reason.

"It's time to leave. All I need to do next is to keep standing in the magic circle." The mage said to his companions. The excitement when summoning the demon quickly dissipated after seeing the discomfort on his companions' faces, "Sorry,

This is the longest way I can think of to delay this. Although demons are not good things, they are good tools. I apologize if I make you uncomfortable."

Lothar was the first to enter the magic circle and the first to come out. He picked up the battle ax stuck in the ground and put it on his shoulder. A slight roar sounded in his ears, but it was not strong.

After he stood still, he turned to look at Batu behind him. Of all the people present, he was the one who was most qualified to be dissatisfied with Cheese's actions, because the material used to summon the demon was the flesh and blood of his war horse.

"The great shaman of this tribe told me that wolves will eat sheep, but if the wolves don't eat the sheep, the sheep will eat all the grass. I think it's very appropriate to call those things devils. The scavenging maggots also come from

People will not find it strange that it grows out of flesh and blood, because that is the survival of maggots.

way. If the maggots don't do this, the rotten flesh will breed disease. If you don't summon these demons, we won't have more time to prepare. The scimitar can kill, but it can also be used to save people. I don't care what you use

It doesn’t matter whether it’s a scimitar or a devil, as long as the person holding the handle is you.”

The mage pressed his right hand on his heart to express his thoughts to the falconer. Cheese is not the kind of person who relies solely on objectivity to judge things. He was not that way many years ago, so even now he still follows

plan actions based on practical principles, but in

In his scale of measuring the weight of things, human feelings are also a very weighty weight. He is very happy to get Batu's understanding, but in addition, he must also take responsibility and use this resource more efficiently.

The precious time gained by summoning demons.

"Although the devil will block most of it for us, I'm afraid something will still slip through the net. I'm going to use the remaining materials to perform a long spell. Your task is to keep out those fish that slip through the net." Cheese

After saying that, he faced the bones, leather and other things piled on the other side and began to recite the curse silently. His companions looked at each other, but none of them understood what the so-called fish that slipped through the net was.

It wouldn't take long for them to understand, because behind Alai, more black shadows began to emerge. A thunderous sound came from the group of black shadows, vibrating in their ears.

"What are those? Did Alai have these around him when you last saw him?" Lothar waved his battle ax and squinted his eyes to try to distinguish the black shadows. As a result, he only saw some unknown shapes.

The limbs and grotesque outlines. The warrior's intuition made him feel great malice from those shapes. If there were no accidents, Cheese told them that their enemies were them.

"Those are..." The cat fairy's pupils shrank, and her voice unconsciously contained a low tremor, "Ah, that's right, of course they will be here. How could these pests miss this feast?"

"I saw many colors. Those things didn't seem to come from the same source. They seemed more like they gathered around Alai." Atta said hesitantly. Her fairy eyes could use a special visual method to identify those things.

Some characteristics of the black shadow. But in the face of quantity, the halos symbolizing different characteristics are all mixed together, making it impossible to accurately identify them.

"Yes, those things are various pests on the grassland, skinned ones, evil witches, resentful spirits and others. They usually dare not move openly in the sun, and can only hide in caves and pray for the sun to set.

People on the grasslands have heard stories about these pests since they were young, and therefore know how to deal with them.

The skinned ones are afraid of the sun, the evil witches dare not approach the roosters, and the resentful spirits cannot pass through the water... Even if they have to pay some casualties, they cannot be unscrupulous on the grassland. This is the result of the knowledge accumulated over generations.

Effect." Kailas called out the true form of those black shadows in a low voice, with contempt in his tone.

"So, Alai is like a lion, and these guys are the vultures and hyenas following the lion, right? As long as they follow Alai, they can get a share of the chaos." The count already understood what his companion meant.

, make a concluding statement. Such situations are not uncommon either in nature or in human society. Speculators and echoers are often more disliked than the saboteurs themselves.

"They want a piece of the pie, but today, they get nothing."
