166 The Darkness underneath the Explosion (2/2)

Brown felt that probably he should try this style some day as well.

As he was thinking, Brown was already beside Saugus.

The adventurer-looking night watcher closely followed Brown on his left side to protect him from any sudden attack.

Fifteen seconds, fourteen seconds …

Lucien left the showcase and walked toward Brown.

Six, five…

Lucien brushed past Brown.

As Lucien was walking, he counted silently in his mind, ”Four, three…”

”Mr. Saugus, I wonder if…” Brown talked to the owner of the museum.

”Two, one…”

Bang! There came a thunderous sound of explosion!

The great explosion brought a fierce blast, and the whole museum was shaken by it!

The horrible sound actually consisted of a few waves of explosion, and together with it, the power of magic waves were also very powerful.

The explosion happened one second later than Lucien's expectation, probably because the change of wind or something else, but since Lucien was on high alert, as soon as the explosion happened, he quickly took action.

The first circle spell: Charm Person.

The target of the spell was Brown.

After obtaining the Book of Necromancy and analyzing the necromantic way of meditating, Lucien found that the shared principle of most necromantic spells was to affect human being's hormone secretion and sensorial judgement by using some kind of special brain waves.

Based on this, Lucien developed two new versions of Charm Person. One put more emphasis on the influence of the magic on the individual's soul, which in exchange would reduce the power from the intervention of brain waves. Thus, it worked better on sorcerers, but would also produce stronger magic waves and was hence easier to be noticed or identified. Meanwhile, the other one was the opposite version, which was more for common people.

As the latter was very hard to be noticed, it worked perfectly right now. And also because Brown's power was awakened by the potion, his willpower was not as strong as those knights who made this achievement on their own.

At that moment, the tiny magic waves produced by Lucien's spell were impossible to be noticed, specially because the explosion blast was totally overwhelming!

No one present noticed Lucien's casting.

The white light burst out again from Brown's amulet for the third time, only one second slower than Lucien's movement. However, Brown suddenly looked very confused for a second before he was covered by the feathers.

The great explosion made the whole museum shake fiercely, and the strong magic waves indicated that it was likely that a middle-rank mage was launching that attack. At the same time, the night watcher, Viscount Wright and other knights immediately took action: some of them took a defensive stance, while others rushed to the place where the explosion originally happened.

Noble ladies were screaming. Most people present terribly panicked. Everything here was a great chaos.

And they started to flood out of the museum, pushing and shoving.

Seeing that Brown protected himself well with the feathers, the night watcher alertly looked around when most of the grand knights were away to check the place which got exploded.

Anyone dare set a step close to Brown would be killed by the night watcher right on the spot.

As the night watcher was checking around, he saw the young man wearing the black top hat was also pushing other people to hurriedly get closer to the gate to escape. His elegant monocle was now hanging on his ear awkwardly.

”Useless…” thought the night watcher out of contempt.

And then the young man got out of the museum hall together with the crowd.
