Chapter 353 – Brute Force

After getting Lin Xiao’s response, Elena wept tears of joy and hugged him, unable to contain her excitement.

She even almost wanted to jump up and give him a kiss.

But the next thing Lin Xiao said poured cold water on her.

“No, I don’t have a way.”

“… What did you say I didn’t hear you” Elena couldn’t believe her own ears and asked again.

“I said, I don’t have a way.”

“…”

“…’

The two looked at each other in silence, cloaked in an awkward atmosphere with only Adele’s screaming echoing behind them.

“Are you serious” Elena still didn’t believe it and thought that this pervert was just messing with her.

“Sigh… it’s the same no matter how many times you ask.

I already told you before, I really don’t have a way.”

“Y-you… if you don’t, why did you agree to help me Is fooling me that interesting!”

She had wanted to kiss Lin Xiao earlier, but now she just wanted to bite him to death.

“No, I’m not fooling you.

If I said I’ll help, I’ll definitely help.”

“Are you still treating me for an idiot … If you don’t have a way to deal with the black magic, how are you going to help me”

“Hehe, true, I can’t get rid of the black magic… but, I can find a way.”

“Find a way”

“That’s right… since it’s magic, then it can definitely be canceled.”

Lin Xiao faintly smiled and even though his tone was as calm as usual, but Elena heard the dominance and resolution that could stop a thousand men.

“Even if I don’t know the way, but I can still save your aunt.”

“Lin Xiao, you…”

Elena stared at the youth before her and didn’t know whether he was serious or he was still joking.

He clearly knew nothing about black magic and was already at a loss and was prepared to retreat but because of her willful begging, he actually was willing to do something that was nearly impossible.

If it’s magic, then it can be canceled, such a simple logic to Elena’s ears eclipsed a thousand words.

That feeling was so profound, it was like the instant Lin Xiao promised her, she unconditionally believed him.

It was like as long as he wasn’t joking and was seriously promising, then no matter how ridiculous and impossible it was, he could easily do it.

That harmless smile and his tone that was as calm as water… this man who passed his days lazily, even now, Elena couldn’t see any emotion from his face… no, rather than that, there was never anything that he faced that made him nervous, so he could still use his lazy attitude to resolve everything.

Perhaps compared to him, she was indeed lacking in experience, since she fell into turmoil even though nothing had happened yet… But if you were to say what she could do to compensate for her lack of experience, then setting her dignity aside and begging Lin Xiao for help would be the smartest choice.

“If it’s magic, then the source is magic power, the reason there are so many different types of magic is because of all the different transformations and combinations applied.

Even though there were a numerous amount, but there were fixed steps that they all followed, as long as they could get a grasp of the core of it then they could find how the magic was composed and then dispel it!”

Lin Xiao recalled the knowledge he learned and quickly thought of a plan.

There were two things that he had to do…

First, he had to control Adele and couldn’t let her lose control.

At the same time, he had to keep his power in check and couldn’t harm her life.

Secondly, while keeping Adele under control, he had to think of a way to get rid of the black magic in her body, that was the only way to solve the problem.

The first thing wasn’t hard, the only problem was the second thing.

Lin Xiao had never read anything regarding black magic, he didn’t even know what kind of black magic she was affected with let alone being able to get rid of it.

“Sigh, it would have been nice if Snow was here…”

Lin Xiao couldn’t help but think of that little brat.

Snow was a weird girl, she looked pure and innocent but was pitch-black on the inside, coincidentally, her personality was very compatible with black magic, and she herself was also interested in it.

So she was proficient in various black magics at a young age, especially magic that controlled one’s mind.

What Adele was affected by seemed to be of that type, so if Snow was here, she would be able to find a way really easily.

But now…

“Hmph, I just don’t believe that I can even deal with unorthodox black magic without that little girl!” For some reason, Lin Xiao was angered by someone that wasn’t even there.

Wasn’t Snow just a little brat, what’s so great about her Lin Xiao didn’t believe it, when Snow first left him behind and called him trash, that he really became trash and wasn’t able to do anything!

Today, he was going to prove himself for Snow to see!

Snow couldn’t see though… in various senses of the word.

“Elena, I have a plan!”

“What is it”

“I need you to listen to all of my directions, it might be a little troublesome… but, I hope that you can cooperate with me.”

“No problem!”

In order to save her thirteenth aunt, a little trouble was nothing to her.

“Good… if I’m not wrong, she’s probably affected by the branch of black magic that affects the mind.

It’ll affect their mental state and recognition, so that’s why she kept on attacking us like crazy.”

“Un.” Elena nodded and remembered everything Lin Xiao was saying.

“I don’t know how it’s cast, but I vaguely remember that people who are affected by mental magic have a specific magic circle left on them that can continue to mess with their mental state and suck their magic power to maintain it… since your aunt doesn’t have magic power, then it’ll take her vitality.

So those wounds she has been probably left behind from having her vitality drained.”

“What a vicious magic…” Elena clenched her fist and cursed the one who made her aunt like this, “So Lin Xiao, are you saying that we just have to find the circle and destroy it”

“That’s the idea… but the key lies in how to destroy it.”

“How else, can’t we just break it” Elena naively asked, “Since you have so much magic power, can’t you just directly use it to get rid of it”

“Cough… that’s easy to say.” Lin Xiao almost choked on her ignorance.

Even if he didn’t know how to get rid of it, there were two basic principles that he knew…

First, that crucial circle is definitely hidden in a concealed place so that it isn’t easily destroyed.

Second, if someone who doesn’t know black magic rashly destroyed the circle with external forces, then the victim would definitely receive severe mental trauma.

They would go crazy in less severe cases, and in more severe cases they would lose their memory and become the living dead with no soul.

“Anyways, we have to find the circle first and then find a way to break it.”

“Okay, I’ll listen to you… so, how do we find it”

“With your perception skill.”

It would be too difficult for Lin Xiao to find it, especially since Adele couldn’t hold on for much longer, so he had to use Elena’s power.

He quickly told Elena about the plan, even if he got a strange look, Lin Xiao had no choice but to use the dumbest and most brute force method.

Elena silently nodded after she heard the plan, and thus the ‘dumb’ plan started!

First, he had to make Adele settle down.

“Judgment light… change!”

A large amount of magic power was channeled into the barrier, all the chains shook and let out a sharp buzzing and dispersed the corrosion leaving clouds of black mist in the air.

The thirteen humanoid shadows pulled the chains they were holding tight, not giving the enemy a single inch!

“Elena!”

“Yep!”

With just a single glance and a call out, Elena immediately understood as she ran towards Adele.

When Lin Xiao saw her get into position, he took a deep breath and concentrated.

He bit open his finger and smeared his blood over the back of his right hand.

The invisible and large amount of magic power quickly flowed and filled the entire cave.

Lin Xiao didn’t hide it anymore and brought out his skills.

“Multicast… chain lightning arrows!”

Multiple milky white circles appeared in midair and folded on top of one another like the vast milky way.

“Fifth-level magic chain lightning It’s not too strong but has a paralysis effect, along with multicast… that’s probably the best way to deal with the current situation!”

Elena understood that the lightning arrows will fall in a moment and with Lin Xiao’s precise control, it will nail her down to the floor so that she couldn’t move.

It was up to her now…

Elena took two steps forward and stood next to Adele.

She ignored the lightning arrows above her and slowly closed her eyes.

They will soon get the answer to whether Lin Xiao’s dumb idea works or not.
