The losers in daily youth have all become witches

"No matter what happens, don't look back... So that's what you're talking about? The scale is too grand. So how did the magician hide from the past and remain undiscovered in modern society?"

Wen Shui Kazuhiko muttered to himself as if to dispel the worries in his heart and divert his attention.

Suddenly, the little golem snake that had been staying obediently in the shoulder bag suddenly crawled out from it and swam towards the mountain with considerable speed.

"Oops!"

Wen Shui and Yan instinctively reached out to grab the person, but obviously failed to catch him, and could only watch him slip away.

Napoleon must be captured quickly.

He hesitated for a moment and then made a decision.

After all, there is a pink-haired girl in the snake's belly. If the snake is cooked, God knows what will become of the child in its belly - Wen Shui Heyan once read in a novel that there is a Chinese dish called Paotun. It seems that other ingredients are stuffed into the belly of a processed suckling pig. After the pig is roasted into a roasted suckling pig with a crispy skin, the ingredients inside are also cooked. It is said that it tastes tender and juicy, and has the unique meaty aroma of lard. In ancient times, it was called the Eight Delicacies.

"I don't want to see that dish anywhere other than Yokohama Chinatown..."

However, after running with Napoleon for a while, Onmizu Kazuhiko felt something was wrong.

He was originally worried that there were flames everywhere and Napoleon was tall and thin, so if he didn't pay attention he might lose him. But in fact, the other party didn't move very fast, and even in some places with complicated terrain, he would deliberately stop for a while as if waiting for him.

Could it be that this guy was deliberately taking him somewhere?

With such doubts, Wen Shuiheyan followed after hesitating for a moment.

After all, this guy is Yuigahama-san's familiar, he shouldn't harm me, right?

"Is this... the area affected by the landslide?"

As they passed a small sloping mud and rock platform, Wen Shui and Yan Yan watched with some surprise as the little snake Napoleon tried to reach the other side of the broken mountain path with his head, just like a caterpillar. "Are you trying to go over there?"

He carefully picked up Napoleon and stuffed it back into his bag. Then, after running back for a distance, he jumped hard onto the platform not too far away on the opposite side.

"I must be crazy..."

Wen Shui He Yan muttered and looked around. He found that apart from the broken mountain path, there seemed to be nothing special. "Forget it, let's go back quickly."

"It would be great if you could give me a hand before then."

Suddenly a muffled voice sounded from beside his feet.

Wen Shuiheyan was startled, and then he saw that some cloth seemed to be exposed in the mud under his feet.

Could it be that someone was buried alive?

Wen Shuiheyan hurriedly dug hard, but ended up digging out a mountaineering bag.

There is no one else.

"Audio hallucination?"

The boy blinked, thinking that he might be under too much pressure.

"Of course not. Open the bag and take a look."

The voice sounded again.

Wen Shui and Yan opened the zipper, and a shabby-looking pointed wizard hat popped out.

"Oh, fresh air, how precious it is...even though I don't need to breathe it!"

Hat shouted emotionally.

"Are you the Sorting Hat?"

Numizu Kazuhiko remembered the way this hat screamed Hufflepuff on his sister's head: "So, this is Asakura-san's backpack?"

"There's nothing in there except the guy's boxers... Hey, kid, put me on your head quickly, we have to get out of here."

Wen Shuiheyan hesitated for a moment, but still put on the hat as the other party asked.

At that moment, he felt his mind suddenly become much clearer, but the Sorting Hat was still whispering in his ear.

"When I was buried in the earth, I thought, if only someone could rescue me..."

"Just grant him three wishes?"

"Don't expect anything from a hat. I can't even tickle myself."

The Sorting Hat said, "But it's okay if you just answer some questions."

"What's with this strange fire on the mountain?"

Wen Shuiheyan also carried Li Mo's hiking bag and asked as they walked.

"That guy's curse, a flame that will incinerate all the 'weirdness' on the entire mountain, past and future, without harming mortal things... It's already more difficult to control than the Gublai fairy fire, and with this amount... Hmph, I'm afraid he won't feel well either."

The Sorting Hat grumbled.

"Hey, wouldn't that be dangerous for you and Napoleon?"

Wen Shui Kazuhiko said in surprise.

"I am the greatest masterpiece of magical creations created by those four legendary figures. Don't compare me to a mere freak!"

The hat said angrily, and then said vaguely: "As for that little snake... maybe that guy closed the friendly injury."

"Friendly injury..."

Wen Shuiheyan felt that it was a bit incongruous for this word to be spoken by a hat full of mysterious magic: "So what should we do now?"

"Go find that guy."

The Sorting Hat replied unhappily.

"But Asakura-san told me not to go there no matter what happens."

Wen Shui and Yan Yan said in confusion.

"If you go there alone, it will only cause more trouble, but it won't be a problem if I come with you."

The Sorting Hat urged in a deep voice: "In fact, if we don't hurry over, there will be trouble."

Chapter 128: Artificial Rampage.

Just as the Sorting Hat said, Li Mo did encounter some minor trouble.

The moment the campsite owner... or rather the cultist said that he had released all the Mountain Pieces and was going to let these monsters that had lost all restraints wreak havoc in the human world, Li Mo actually activated the spell [Scale], forming an invisible barrier around the convenience store. Even those Mountain Pieces that ran out of the house were trapped in it and could not escape.

But the problem is that Li Mo cannot be sure that all the mountain pieces are here - if that is the case, then when Kakamihara Nadeshiko tried to dig him out after he was buried alive, there should not be any mountain pieces.

This means that there must be other mountain creatures wandering in the forest, perhaps searching for other survivors, or perhaps simply being prepared by the cultist to guard against the appearance of people like the police.

But Li Mo didn't dare to gamble.

In the real world, it is absolutely impossible for a biochemical crisis to break out due to the sudden appearance of a few zombies - unless the zombie virus can be transmitted through the air and specifically attacks humans, the slow-moving zombie epidemic will never cause a devastating blow to human civilization.

But the mountain is different.

They are highly resistant to physical damage, and humans cannot see them, and even observation is difficult to achieve.

In reality, it is impossible for a genius scientist like in the movie to suddenly develop a radar that can detect mountain objects without any technical reserves.

They are difficult to detect and defend against. They special attack against women and can assimilate their victims. Their individual strength is quite strong. Even if they can see them, ordinary people holding firearms may not be able to defeat the Mountain Piece.

It may be a bit of an exaggeration to say that humanity will become extinct because of this, but the trauma it will cause to all of humanity may even surpass the Black Death in medieval Europe.

So not even one of them can be allowed to escape from Yunqu Mountain.

After clarifying this, Li Mo was very clear about what he was going to do: burn all the mountain items on Yunqu Mountain without leaving a single one!

But problems also arise.

Li Mo's curse has a range.

For example, under normal circumstances, the maximum range of [Scale] is actually only about forty meters, [Snake] is shorter, and [Candle] is much farther, but it will not exceed one hundred meters.

But this is not set in stone, as mentioned above, it is just the 'norm'.

If we ignore the activation of magic power, the range can be further increased by about 2 to 3 times. If we give up the precise capture of the target, that is, give up the "100% hit rate", the range can be further increased.

But even so, compared to the entire Yunqu Mountain, the scope of the curse is still too small.

So, is there any way to expand the scope of the spell to an incredible extent?

The answer is yes.

That is the 'runaway' of the spell.

Wu Geng Liuli's control over the spell is far lower than Li Mo's. The magic power in an ordinary girl's body is only about 500 units, which is much less than the magic power accumulated by Li Mo.

Under normal circumstances, the range of her [Cat] is only about ten meters, far less effective than any of Li Mo's spells.

But when the girl's spell went out of control, the affected area directly covered most of Chiba, and even caused some commotion to the stray cats, dogs and wild animals in some surrounding areas.

Thanks to the help of the nameless magic book and the system, he was able to use all the spells quite skillfully the moment he learned them. He had never experienced the so-called spell runaway.

But he had felt the feeling of the curse running wild from Gokou Ruri and Asagumo Chihaya.

So he tried to use his own rationality to block the assistance from the magic book and the system, and tried to control the spell with his own strength.

The result was no different from usual. Even when controlling three spells at the same time, there was no feeling of effort, let alone making the spells go out of control.

Li Mo: It turns out that I don’t rely entirely on Deep Blue, I am actually a genius!

It's just that it's obvious that the genius came at the wrong time.

At this point, we can only implement Plan B!

He directly cut off the part of his brain that controlled magic power, and injected all the magic power into the spell blindly, thereby causing artificial magic power to run wild.

“…violent yet stable, out of control yet controllable.”

Li Mo tried hard to explore. Unlike the rampage that was usually used as a trump card in various anime and animations, which would only appear like a deus ex machina when being beaten by the enemy, he even tried to develop the spell rampage as his own basic attack skill.

In terms of the choice of spells, [Scale] is in his left arm, and it is not as easy to control as the other two spells, let alone in a rampage situation.

After just a moment's hesitation, Li Mo chose the latter between [Snake] and [Candle].

Although he is more skilled in using [Snake], the regular range of [Snake] is not as good as [Candle]. After the spell runs out of control, the coverage range of the two will definitely widen the gap further. Even for the sake of safety, it is a better choice to choose [Candle] with a longer range.

He also did not forget that even after those mountain pieces were cursed into snakes, the snakes peeled off from their bodies were still quite hostile to humans. Although hundreds or thousands of snakes attacking humans everywhere as if they had rabies were not that troublesome for humans, Li Mo still did not intend to leave any hidden dangers.

What's more, regarding [Candle], he had just confirmed some of his conjectures through experiments and had a deeper understanding of the spell itself.

"The flame is just a derivative. The essence of the spell was misunderstood from the beginning... That's right, it's not [fire], but [candle]. What's important isn't the flame itself, but what's chosen as the 'candle' to burn!"

Abandon all delicate operations and only need to set one condition, 'use the monster as a candle'. The rest is just to increase the range and let the effect of [Candle] cover the entire Yunqu Mountain.

"It only takes a moment to burn those monsters to ash... Tsk, once they start going berserk, it's not that easy to stop them."

Li Mo's face turned pale as he felt the magic power in his body being rapidly drained. He tried to cut off his connection with the runaway spell, but it was like a person standing in a force 18 typhoon trying to keep his body steady without holding on to anything. It was too difficult.

In just a moment, his magic power was almost exhausted, and he was like a candle in the wind!

Chapter 129: It’s not tiring to play.

"Asakura-kun!"

Just when Li Mo felt helpless and was planning to use [Scale] to interrupt the maintenance of [Candle] in the face of backlash, Wen Shui and Yan's voice came from outside the convenience store.

"Warm water... didn't I tell you to go back quickly..."

"There was a little accident..."

Wen Shuiheyan looked at Li Mo in surprise, or more precisely, at his hair: "Asakura-kun, your hair?"

Originally, Li Mo's hair was a normal pure black, but now, even in the light of the fire, Wen Shui Heyan could be sure that the other person's hair color had completely disappeared, turning into a head of white hair that looked a little sick.

"This is using up so much mana that it's a bit strange... Rather than that, it's better for you to stay away from me. I can't concentrate anymore..."

"I think Asakura-san needs this right now."

"what?"

Li Mo then raised his head and saw a black shadow flying towards him.

He subconsciously reached out to catch it and found that it was the Sorting Hat that he had stuffed in his backpack and thought he had lost.

"It's really embarrassing."

The Sorting Hat said, "Dumbledore didn't look as frail as you do even when he was one hundred and fifteen."

"So when he was one hundred and sixteen, he was weaker than me?"
