53 The Professor’s Oscillation Hand (2/2)
On the couches, carpets, and even on the long table, pairs of man and woman, man and man, woman and woman, were moaning during coitus. They were having sex as if they were totally crazy. Some women’s dresses were rolled up around their waists, while some other women were completely naked, and men were humping them like beasts.
Only one person in the licentious sex party was totally different. It was a middle-aged man in a silver robe. He did not join these people. Instead, he raised his hands up and closed his eyes, as if he was enjoying the moans and was listening to someone talking to him. His face looked extremely excited, lightened with ecstasy.
Black mist gradually rose up from the crazy people and slowly gathered behind the middle-aged man. The man was standing in the center of the pattern of an argent horn drawn on the altar, from which many silver lines stretched out and enclosed the shadow. Then the shadow became darker and darker, mixing with the colors of pink and black. Gradually, it turned into a tall and big shadow with two horns on its head.
“Are you ready for my power?” The shadow suddenly spoke.
The middle-aged man, Baron Laurent, answered in his lunatic tone, “The Great Master of Argent, the forever lasting silence, I’ve given my soul to you. Please, please endow me with your power!”
Slowly the shadow approached him and started entering his body, bit by bit.
Laurent’s face contorted. Obviously, merging was not a very pleasant process. However, the pain was suppressed by the ecstasy shining in his eyes.
“No one can stop me now. No one can stop me from regaining the glory of my family anymore.” Apart from the ecstasy, there were also tears in his eyes.
…………
Outside the house, Lucien and the other three apprentices did not intrude obtrusively. They first had to make sure there were no magic circles or traps around.
“Mr. Professor, it will take at least half an hour to eliminate all the magic traps here.” Philosopher said to Lucien.
“No, we can’t.” White Honey sounded nervous, “We’re relatively late, and I can feel the demon already. We only have up to ten minutes. Ten minutes later, the demon will arrive in its complete form. Then we will be too late.”
“Going into the hall directly will also cost us lots of spiritual power as well to deal with the traps.” Smile turned to Lucien, “Professor, you must have some more powerful spells that can eliminate all the magic traps at once.”
All the three apprentices were looking at the mysterious sorcerer. Similar thoughts came in their mind. Although they all knew that the sorcerer was very profound, none of them ever saw in person how powerful the mysterious Professor was.
“Is Mr. Professor a real powerful sorcerer?”
“How powerful can he be?”
“Is he even stronger than White Honey’s mentor?”
Lucien knew clearly what they were thinking. He was prepared. Under their gaze, he answered with confidence, “No problem, Smile. I’ll handle this.”
Lucien came close to the wall of the house and pressed both of his hands on it. Moving his lips silently, Lucien started casting the spell.
Invisible waves spread out of Lucien’s hand. The waves hit the wall instantly and were reflected back. The following waves thus became different.
In Philosopher, Owl and White Honey’s eyes, nothing happened. They exchanged worried glances with confusion but did not say anything.
Suddenly, White Honey felt the earth was shaking.
“Are you trembling?” Philosopher asked her at the same time.
“Not me.” She answered with surprise.
“Look!” Smile was pointing at the building, “Look! The whole house’s shaking!”
White Honey and Philosopher immediately looked in the direction of the house. The old three-story house was shaking forward and backward, and the movement was becoming fiercer and fiercer. They could hear the glasses were shattering.
“Earthquake?!” White Honey wondered.
“No, it’s the house itself!” answered Owl.
“Mr. Professor?” Philosopher looked at Lucien and was shocked.
Lucien’s hands were still pressed against the house’s wall. His whole body was shaking along with the building. His lips were still moving.
“The house’s gonna collapse!” White Honey took a step back.
Philosopher could not believe his eyes, “Even a third circle spell Fireball could not completely destroy a whole building at once! What is this spell?!”
“What… is… this…!” Doro, the owl, was standing on Smile’s shoulder, yelling.
No one noticed when the raven caught up with them again. It almost fell down from the tree once more, because of the sudden shaking.
“What’s the circle of this spell!” The raven cried as well.
Only Lucien knew it was just an apprentice spell, the Professor’s Oscillation Hand. The spell could detect the frequency of vibration of a building and created a resonance to destroy the construction. It worked the best with bridges!
