Chapter 121 Plan: "Three Flying Birds"
Converging her memories, the Witch of the East watched the birds flying from a distance fall into the lake, unable to float in the dark and black water, sinking unstoppably to the bottom of the lake.
Only a few birds flew around the top of the lake in time to avoid the fate of drowning in the lake.
"Come out, magician. Don't hide!" shouted the Witch of the East.
Unexpectedly, when she shouted, one of the colorful birds among the surviving birds actually left the team and flew to the front, mouthing human words:
"Okay, I'm out."
The voice in Cainiao's mouth was the clear and clear voice of a young man.
So simple?
It actually came out!
The Witch of the East was startled.
"No wonder I didn't find where you were hiding just now. It turns out that you yourself have turned into a bird." The Witch of the East laughed.
"The magic and transformation of flying birds are a very interesting combination. If you don't take the initiative, I will really have to spend some time looking for you... That's weird, I will just kill all the birds equally!"
This most beautiful bird with colorful feathers like a rainbow stopped on the branch and continued to speak:
"I took the initiative to show up, naturally because I want to negotiate with you."
Dozens of other birds still surrounded the Witch of the East vigilantly, hovering in the air, seemingly ready to serve as their master's human shield to block the Witch of the East's attack.
"Are you Sage Rhine?" said the Witch of the East. "Do you think you can defeat me and save the queen just by yourself?"
Sage Rhine...the queen vaguely felt that she had heard of this name.
"That magician from the Kingdom of Rose in the north? He seems to be involved in the neighboring Kingdom of West Asia and the Sea Kingdom Alliance? That should be the right name, right?"
"But Rhine is a sage from the Kingdom of Rose and an ally of the Kingdom of West Asia. It should have nothing to do with the Kingdom of West Asia. Why did you save me!"
The queen was confused and completely confused about the situation.
"What do you want to talk to me about?" The Witch of the East had a ferocious expression, and her body slowly floated up from the ground and hung in the air.
"I must kill [the Queen] today and take away her soul. But if you cooperate a little, I can consider sparing your life!"
Uh... The Witch of the East really hates the queen. If she knew that the "queen" who drove her away was actually played by me and Aurora, her expression would definitely be wonderful. Rhine laughed in his heart.
The bird with colorful feathers raised its proud neck:
"I want to make a deal. The content of the deal is that you give me the pair of magic silver shoes and leave immediately. And I will pay the equivalent in chips."
"It's really whimsical." The smile on the ugly face of the Witch of the East deepened, "What reward can you give?"
"The reward I can pay is..." The colorful bird on the branch paused deliberately mid-sentence, and then said after a few seconds:
"I won't kill you."
The Witch of the East, suspended in the air, laughed.
It's like hearing the funniest joke in the world.
The next second, her eyes instantly became sharp, filled with murderous intent and anger.
"You are just a magician who is famous in two or three small kingdoms. You are not worthy of it!"
The Witch of the East pointed her wand at the colorful bird on the branch, and purple magic gathered at the tip of the wand.
Just as she was about to cast the spell, all the birds surrounding her shot out like arrows and rushed towards the Witch of the East, wanting to protect their master!
The Witch of the East completely ignored the birds rushing from all directions.
She knew her methods and was sure that these birds couldn't hurt her at all!
And, it’s too late...
Whoosh!
The purple-black ray shot out from the tip of the Witch of the East's wand and hit the colorful birds on the branch without any deflection.
Snap.
The colorful bird completely lost its life, fell from the branch, fell to the ground, kicked up bursts of dust, and turned into ashes.
It's dead.
"Is it that simple?"
The Witch of the East was a little surprised.
The next moment, her eyes narrowed.
"Wrong!"
"The most beautiful bird with colorful feathers is not the magician's true body, it's just a bait!"
The Witch of the East's premonition of danger suddenly triggered.
She is not proficient in prophecy and divination, but she has learned a lot and has dabbled in this aspect. Premonitions arise instinctively in situations where life is at risk and heavy losses may be suffered.
"The real magician Rhine is..." The Witch of the East instantly understood the enemy's trick and was about to react.
It's too late.
The birds that rushed towards the Witch of the East did not attack her with their pecks, but flew past the Witch.
One of the birds - the most common one, completely indistinguishable from other birds in the flock, gently raised its wings as it flew under the Witch of the East in mid-air, letting its feathers caress it gently. The Silver Shoes of the Witch of the East.
At the moment when the premonition was triggered, the Witch of the East suspended in the air instinctively raised her feet to prevent the bird's feathers from touching her silver shoes.
——Her intuition told her that this would bring misfortune!
However, because her attention was distracted by the previous bait, the Witch of the East still moved a step slower. Her left shoe avoided the bird's feathers, but her right shoe was still lightly scratched by the feathers.
But that's about it.
"Strange, after being touched by a flying bird, the magic power of my silver shoes is still there, and there is no problem."
The Witch of the East was surprised to find that the silver shoes were not affected.
The flying bird circled in the air and landed on the clearing in the forest, transforming back into the silver-haired boy in a cloud of white mist.
"What a pity, I only encountered one shoe..."
Rhine turned his right hand, and the silver shoe of the Witch of the East that he had touched just now appeared in the boy's hand.
As for the Witch of the East's pair of silver shoes, only the left one is left.
Everything that happened just now, from the flying birds in the sky that disturbed the attention, to the colorful birds that appeared on their own initiative, was a strategy designed by Rhine specifically to target the Witch of the East!
For this core member of the Witches, Rhine believed that it would be extremely difficult to kill him, much more difficult than dealing with the old witch from Ender.
Since the Witch of the East in this world has gathered the magic of many people, she must have some means of self-protection that are difficult to kill.
Therefore, Rhine's main purpose in this battle, from just now until now, has been to snatch away the silver shoes of the Witch of the East and make her lose the ability to travel around the continent at will!
"I see, you can take away items you have touched."
"Your body is the most ordinary flying bird, mixed in a large group of flying birds, not that very conspicuous bird with colorful feathers and a mouth that speaks human words. The latter is just a bait to distract my attention."< br>
The Witch of the East narrowed her eyes and stared at Rhine.
The young man stood in the wind, his silver hair and white robe swaying in the breeze.
She felt deeply troubled by this child-like magician.
"That's right," Rhine shrugged. "Actually, I can't speak human language when I turn into an animal. But I can give birds the magic of talking."
Rhine weighed the silver shoe in his hand again and looked at the Witch of the East's left foot, which only had one silver shoe left.
"Unfortunately, my original plan was to take away two shoes from you at once. Now I am very disappointed."
Rhine said with a smile, and judging from his expression, there was no trace of disappointment at all.
As expected of a core member of the Witches' Association, he is indeed not easy to deal with... Rhine sighed in his heart.
The Witch of the East in this world, after gathering the leaders of hundreds of families, is several times more powerful than the passerby villain who was crushed to death by a house in the original work!
In order to deal with this powerful enemy, Rhine and Aurora discussed and finally formulated a layer-by-layer plan specifically targeting the Witch of the East.
This plan is called——
【Three Flying Birds】!
……
at the same time.
The queen quietly left the battlefield and was running in the green forest.
In order to prevent being discovered by the Witch of the East, the queen no longer dared to ride a broomstick and could only walk.
She became more and more confused as she recalled the scene just now.
"I've seen that silver-haired boy. He was right next to me when I wanted to kill Aurora."
"So, he is the famous magician Rhine!"
"What the hell is going on? I wanted to harm his partner before, why did he save me? Wait, since my poison apple is ineffective, he probably doesn't know that the apple is poisonous. Maybe he doesn't know that I want to harm him. Partner? ”
"Forget it, never mind. Let's go back to the kingdom first."
The queen walked through a forest, and the front suddenly opened up, and she had a panoramic view of infinite beauty.
At the foot of the mountain is the royal city she is familiar with!
"My palace, my city, my kingdom. Your queen is coming back!"
