Under the "comfort" of the devil, Anna picked up her self-motivated again.

The next day the promotion assessment result was announced. When Anna arrived, the one-star wizards around the notice board stepped aside.

Anna paused and walked over as if the stars were all over the moon. It was really uncomfortable to be stared at by so many people without going over.

She was hesitating, Rothgar took her arm and walked into the enclosure with a confident expression.

Before reaching the notification board, Anna quickly found her name.

All four subjects are excellent, and of course the total score is also excellent.

"Look, it's qualified." Rotgar raised his eyebrows.

Anna couldn't help touching the badge on her chest, and today there will be one more gold star on this badge.

"Yes, I am qualified." Anna said emotionally.

When she turned around and wanted to walk away, she found that the surrounding one-star wizards looked at her more enthusiastically. After all, she was promoted from a mage apprentice to a two-star mage within three months. have never heard of a genius like her so fast!

Anna was actually a little ashamed of the title of genius.

She did not start from scratch. She has more than ten years of training and knows how to learn a new thing. She has a whole set of built-in ways of thinking, which can help her master spells quickly. It's not so much that she has amazing talents, it's better to say that her compulsory education is awesome.

Anna avoided the sight of the surrounding wizards, and went to the registration office to add stars with the demon and Natalie.

She has a hunch that her life will be turbulent next.

It would be great if five-star wizards could be attracted.

Compared with when came to register half a month ago, the staff at the registration office did not speak as much as before. They were very courteous and a little respectful when they added stars to her.

After all, with her talents, a four-star mage is stable, and the probability of becoming a five-star mage is also very high. How can they not respect it?

After getting her two-star badge, Anna poked the one that was pinned to the devil's chest, and smiled a little, "Now we are the same."

Of course Anna knows very well that she can't beat the ten demons who use Raymond's body in total, but at least their stars are the same on the surface. This gives her the illusion that she seems to be very close to the strength of the demons. NS.

Rothgar grabbed Anna's finger and sneered: "Same?"

Anna struggled to escape and smiled: "At least the star is the same. Don't you hurry up, maybe I will be able to surpass you soon."

Of course what she said was big talk. She rose fast for the first two stars, but it was not so easy for the latter. Of course, it will definitely be much faster than ordinary people.

Rotgar sneered at the corner of her mouth and didn't refute it. In less than a month, she didn't have time to upgrade.

The leisure time passed, and then he was going to get serious.

Anna will not continue to take the test in the short term, and the time will not be as tight as the previous three months. She also intends to relax herself a little bit.

Although she has become accustomed to the days of studying hard as before, but a few months is okay, no matter how long the pressure is too much, she may be bald, she doesn't want to personally try whether the potion can really cure hair loss.

The following day, Anna was congratulated by people she didn't know.

Sure enough, as she expected, she had connected two levels within three months, causing a huge wave of waves in the entire Mage Association, and even President Bella found Anna and asked her if she was interested in finding a teacher.

Of course, Anna couldn't say that she was just a four-star mage and she still looked down on her. She could only say that she would consider it again and send President Bella away politely.

"Anna, you are really amazing, President Bella wants to accept you as a student!" Natalie was as excited as she was.

"Yeah, it's really annoying." Anna said pretentiously, "Who should I choose?"

"I think President Bella is very good! She is a very powerful four-star mage!" Natalie gave Anna an idea.

Anna glanced at the devil, he was indifferent, after all, even if she really asked President Bella to be a teacher, she couldn't do anything about him, he didn't need to care at all.

"I'll think about it again." Anna said perfunctorily.

On this day, Rotgar had a rare good intention to leave Anna a relaxing day for the last day. His time is running out and he will try all kinds of methods to make her surrender. Therefore, he went home early in the afternoon—he had an afternoon tea with a son of a nobleman who had a good reputation and was popular with ladies.

Anna was busy during the two-star assessment, and he secretly met a lot of men who are very popular with women, wanting to see what kind of characteristics they have that attract women's attention. Although Anna is different from other women, he believes that some things are common, and now he has a lot of ideas to be put into practice.

Anna was very happy to see the devil left early, and when she couldn't see his back, she said to Natalie: "Let's go and eat something good, I invite you. Celebrate my becoming a two-star mage."

Natalie's eyes lit up: "Okay!"

"Is there anything you want to eat?"

"Um... ah, by the way, I heard that Chengxi has just opened a new restaurant. The chef seems to come from the capital of the country, and the food is said to be delicious."

"Then let's go take a look!"

Anna has enough savings now, but after upgrading to a two-star mage, the money will only come sooner, so she looks rich.

Because there are always demons around, Anna and Natalie rarely have the experience of going out alone, and both are very excited. They arrived early and the restaurant was still very empty. The two enjoyed a feast comfortably, and it was just dark when they came out.

The two got into the carriage of Wright's house, and Anna did not want to move when she was full and did not refuse Natalie to send her home.

When Anna got downstairs, she got out of the car, and Natalie suddenly said, "Anna, can't I sit up there?"

Anna was taken aback, then laughed. Natalie's words are almost like a common quotation when men send women home. Usually "sitting" will develop into "doing".

Natalie blushed a little. For so long, only Anna has been to her room, she has not been to Anna's residence yet. If you are good friends, shouldn't they understand each other's bedroom to the same degree?

She hurriedly said: "If it is not convenient..."

"No inconvenience, come on." Anna smiled and stretched out her hand. It was really inconvenient when Eppe was still there, but it was very convenient if Eppe left.

Natalie's eyes lit up, holding the robe of the wizard in one hand and Anna's hand in the other, and jumped out of the carriage.

"I live in that attic, which is relatively independent. The landlord is very nice and often invites me to eat." Anna said as she led the way, walking up the stairs, "It's just a little bit small, so I can’t share your room. Compare."

"The bedroom is enough to live. It's too big and the space is too scary." Natalie followed Anna and said embarrassingly, "When I was a child, I used to think that there were monsters in the room, so I hid in the dark to eat me. I'm scared!"

"That's normal. When I was a child, I also felt that there were monsters under the bed..." Anna said, opening the door, and stepped aside, "Please come in."

When Natalie looked inside curiously, Anna suddenly felt anxious.

In the invisible dark place in the innermost part of the room, it seems that there is a monster that eats human beings.

"Natalie, wait..."

Before Anna's warning, a black light flashed in the dark, something came straight at Natalie, Anna hurriedly condensed the gold element on her right arm, raising her arm to block Natalie's body.

The black mang hit the barrier created temporarily by Anna, only to be blocked for a moment, and then penetrated her arm.

Anna snorted, but when she was blocking, she had already pushed Natalie away with her left hand at the same time, but the black light that penetrated her arm did not pierce Natalie.

Natalie was standing at the junction of the stairs and the door. With Anna's push, she stomped on the air and exclaimed. She hurriedly used the wind gathering technique, just before landing, she lifted herself up. Some fell to the ground in embarrassment.

And Anna realized the strength gap between the two sides after taking a blow, and did not intend to head-on with the other side. Just as she wanted to jump out of the room, she felt that her mental power seemed to be imprisoned by something in an instant. There seemed to be a vacuum, and the natural elements that could have been felt were no longer felt.

Anna was shocked, and several black arrows aimed at her appeared before her eyes.

There was a low voice in the room: "If you don't want to die, don't move."

The mental power was imprisoned by an unknown power, and Anna was just a girl without the power of a chicken.

She didn't dare to move, and from the corner of her eye she saw Natalie below who was also controlled. It was a person covered in black clothes. The other party held a stick-like staff in her hand and leaned against Natalie. Li's neck.

A man covered in black also walked out of the room. He approached Anna and suddenly raised his hand. A piece of black cloth covered Anna. She felt that the cloth seemed to have something special, and the other party twisted her hands directly. Going behind, took her downstairs.

Anna can yell, but she is worried that her screams will attract Giverny... These people in black are definitely not good people, Giverny will be killed by them.

Anna and Natalie were taken into the carriage, which seemed to be the one she and Natalie had sat in.

Her arm was still bleeding, and the pain was so painful that she couldn't help biting her lip. But she can't feel the spiritual power now, and can't perform holy healing on herself.

She breathed deeply, guessing who the other person was.

Is it for her or Natalie?

She is already a two-star mage, and she believes that her actual combat ability is not weak. The other party can easily restrain her. In addition to making sufficient preparations in advance and confining her mental power, his initial attack was also very extraordinary, at least a three-star mage. Level.

And... the opponent used a dark spell.

Anna thought of Eppe directly. Although Dibian is also a dark mage, he has been away for so long, and the troubles related to him will not erupt until now, and her relationship with Dibian is so secretive, how could anyone find out?

If it was Eppe...she always knew that he had a secret, could it be said that after he left, he actually went to his organization and then involved her?

Anna couldn't move, so she could only think about it in her mind. She didn't know how long the carriage stopped, she was pushed out of the carriage, and then the carriage left again.

The carriage belonged to Natalie, and it was probably taken away and destroyed.

Because she couldn't see the way, Anna walked a bit staggering, and she couldn't hear any sounds around her. She felt that she walked along the flat ground for a while, and then a spiral staircase, occasionally she could hear Natalie's exclamation because she was frightened, letting her know that she was not separated from Natalie. Peace of mind.

After walking down the stairs for a while, Anna was suddenly pushed and staggered, and then the black cloth covering her body was torn away, and the sound of locking came from behind.

Anna looked around and took a breath.

According to the feeling when they came, they should be underground now, and where she is now is a small wooden dungeon.

And she still couldn't use mental power.

"Anna..." Natalie's trembling voice came from the side.

Anna took a deep breath. The damp and musty smell in the air made her frown. She quickly walked aside, and Natalie was in the cell on her right.

"Don't be afraid, we'll be fine." Anna took Natalie's hand through the gap in the wood and calmed her softly.

No matter who these people are, they don't know who they provoke. If the devil finds that she is missing, he will definitely come to her and dare to snatch the devil's prey. They are done.

"Well, we'll be fine!" Natalie's eye circles are a little red. She rarely encounters such a dangerous situation. Last time she was on the line of life and death. She couldn't help panic at this time. It was only because Anna was there that she could maintain a certain level. Calm.

"Is your mental power imprisoned?" Anna asked.

Natalie nodded: "Yes."

Anna let go of Natalie: "Let me look around."

This underground space is about the size of two basketball courts, all of which are piled up of stones, with torches for lighting inserted on the side. Wind blowing in from somewhere, changing the time here, is quite suitable for shooting horror movies.

In this circular space, except for the cells on this side, only the middle is something special, but she can't see the situation in the middle from her.

And among the several cells here, she and Natalie are not the only ones.

Anna looked at the cell on her left. Someone was lying motionless there. She slowly walked over and squatted down by the cell. Seeing that the man was thinking about asking aloud, she noticed the other person's clothes.

This is……

"Ep?" Anna looked surprised.

Judging from his clothes and body shape, this person lying on the ground without seeing his face is the same Eppe who left in the middle of the night more than a day ago.

Is it what she guessed?

Aipu was a little far away from Anna, she couldn't reach him, he seemed to be in a coma, Anna called him for a long time but couldn't wake him up.

At this moment, someone came over, the footsteps were light and rhythmic, it seemed to be a woman.

Anna looked at the door suddenly, and saw Magnolia in a black dress walking over with a white thick fan in her hand, standing in front of Anna's cell, the ruby ​​pendant on her chest was so gorgeous that she seemed to bleed.

Anna hadn't seen Magnolia for a long time, and she hadn't thought that this matter would be related to this ordinary person who is not an illegal teacher.

The corners of Magnolia's mouth twitched slightly, and she looked at Anna in the cell with a haughty attitude.

"Dear Anna, it's been a long time. I heard that you have risen two stars one after another. You are already a two-star mage now." Magnolia's eyes fell on Anna's chest, and the two gold stars on the badge stabbed her. After closing her eyes, she covered her mouth and chuckled pretentiously, "It's such an excellent talent, I can't bear it."

"What do you want to do with us?" Anna asked.

Magnolia smiled at the corners of her mouth, her eyes deep: "Yes, what shall I do to catch you?"

She touched the pendant on her chest, and suddenly talked about another topic: "You are not curious, where did the people who arrested you come from?"

Anna pointed to Eppe next door and said, "I'm more curious about what happened to him."

Anna's words did not reveal that she recognized Eppe, and Magnolia did not hear the hidden meaning of Anna's words. Being interrupted by Anna made her a little unhappy. She glanced at the cell and said casually: "It's just the dark magician picked up on the road."

Anna frowned slightly, it turned out that Ep had nothing to do with her being caught? According to Magnolia, she didn't know that Ep and her were old acquaintances.

Anna also pretended not to know Eppe, looked at Magnolia and said: "If you catch a dark magician, you should turn it over to the church."

Magnolia seemed to have heard something funny, and the thick fan opened, covering the lower half of her face with a smile: "Turn it in to the church? Hahahaha, Anna, do you know what I'm talking about?"

Anna didn't know what was ridiculous about what she said. Wasn't she talking about the common sense of ordinary people in this world?

Until she saw Magnolia stretch out her white fingers, a cloud of black smoke suddenly appeared in her palm.

"Are you a dark magician?" Anna was surprised. She always thought Magnolia was just an ordinary person.

Magnolia smiled and said, "And it's pure dark."

Her eyes fell on the cloud of black smoke, like love and hatred in her eyes.

Elemental affinity actually has a certain genetic factor. Anna thought of the two dark magicians who had captured her and Natalie, and suddenly realized that the entire family of Magnolia was probably a hidden dark magician.

They were hiding so well under the nose of the Black Cloud City Church.

Anna once had a very good impression of dark magicians because of Dibian. Seeing a dark magician like Magnolia, she couldn't help but sigh in her heart.

There are always good and bad in a group. She is lucky when she meets Dibian, and can't expect all dark magicians to be good people.

"So, what are you going to do to catch us?" Anna said, "I have no prejudice against Dark Masters. If you let us go, I won't expose you."

"Don't be so naive, Anna, you are making me laugh." Magnolia smiled and shook her head. "Since I tried to catch you, how could I let you go?"

Anna looked at Magnolia and sighed: "I am not praying, but warning you. If you don't let me go, terrible things will happen."

"Anna, do you want to say that Raymond will come to save you?" Magnolia laughed very happy, "Raymond may be fascinated by you, but how did he find you? Even if he Knowing where you are, how can you get in with the strength of his two-star mage? You really shouldn’t put your hope on an unreliable man. If I were you, I could study in the Mage Association with integrity, I wouldn’t care about any man. , But put all energy on cultivation."

She clenched her fist, and the black mist in her palm instantly disappeared: "You really don't know how to cherish."

"You're talking nonsense! Anna obviously works harder than anyone else! It's obviously Master Raymond who has been pestering Anna!" Natalie suddenly retorted. She was shocked by Magnolia's true identity before, and never dared. Speaking out, I finally couldn't help hearing this.

Magnolia glanced at Natalie coldly: "You shut up."

Anna didn't want Magnolia to focus her attention on Natalie, and forcibly took the stubborn words: "If I don't work hard, how can I become a two-star mage from an apprentice apprenticeship within three months?"

Anna paused, but still didn't use the devil to warn and threaten Magnolia. One is that the other party probably won't believe it, and the other is that if the devil learns what she said, she will help.

Just wait now, she knows the devil will come.

After hearing what Anna said, Magnolia did not refute, she knew that what Anna said was true.

Seeing her embarrassed appearance as a prisoner, Magnolia felt much better. Actually, it wasn't Anna, but who told her to make her unhappy?

She glanced at Anna again, and turned to leave.

"Magnolia, what are you doing after arresting us!" Anna asked, clutching the railing of the cell.

Magnolia stopped and smiled charmingly at her: "Anna, all I want to catch is you, and Natalie is your burden. But who told her to accompany you home today? That's the case. , She had to die with you. As for how to die...I can’t tell you now, you will know tomorrow.”

This time, no matter what Anna called her, Magnolia left without saying a word.

"Anna, don't listen to Magnolia's nonsense! It's obviously that she is bad, and we are caught. How can you say that you are causing me to trouble me!" Natalie grabbed the cell door and quickly said to Anna, she didn't want to Make Anna blame herself.

Knowing Magnolia's intentions, Anna turned her head and smiled soothingly at Natalie: "I know, don't worry."

Having said that, Anna still has a bit of self-blame in her heart. If she can resolutely reject Natalie today, Natalie will not be involved in this kind of mess.

She took a deep breath, but didn't panic.

According to Magnolia, she would die tomorrow, and the devil would find her missing tomorrow morning, and he would definitely be able to find her.

The only thing she can count on now is a demon who will kill her soul, which is ironic.

"Natalie, we have nothing to do now, let's sleep." Anna looked at Natalie and smiled, "Wake up, everything will be fine."

Anna's calm tone infected Natalie, and she solemnly nodded her head: "Yes, everything will be fine."

Anna touched Aipu's side again before lying down. She looked carefully this time. Aipu was unconscious, the dark lines on her face were very light, and her skin looked a little red, as if she had a fever.

Anna had long been used to Ep's twitches from time to time, but this time it was very different. He did not convulse, and it seemed that he was in a coma for too long.

But at this time Anna couldn't do anything. She lay down and curled up, thinking about what Magnolia was going to do to them, thinking about when the devil would find her missing and come to her and force herself to fall asleep.

She hoped that when she opened her eyes tomorrow, she could see the handsome and hateful face of the devil.
