Arcane Lord

From the moment he entered the magic network riot area, Xia Duo's spirit has been tense. The moment he saw the shadow, he threw it with a mental shock shot without thinking.

This blow was like the same amount or even more water was suddenly added to a ball of ink, and it was even stirred a few times. After the shadow withstood this blow, it twisted like a ball of ink after it was dispersed. look.

Immediately afterwards, Xia Duo heard a sharp roar that penetrated his soul. Even after passing through the heavy protection, Xia Duo still felt like the electric scream of the old-fashioned loudspeakers in his hometown, which made people very uncomfortable.

But before he could take any further action, the twisted shadow changed shape again, turning into a twisted red cloud. The next moment, the red cloud turned green and then yellow.

It keeps changing like this, like a distorted alien RGB ambient light with an internal program error. If it hadn't been for the thing that still emits a shrill scream of the soul when it changes form, Xia Duo would have wanted to keep it for a while longer.

But unfortunately, there is only one thing Sha Duo can do about the unknown etheric creatures, and that is - destroy them!

But before completely annihilating him, he wanted to see what the opponent was, and then used [Disintegration of Will] + [Psychic Shock], and [Cluster Lightning] triggered by the bloodline ability [Control Thunder], one after another.

The former came in an instant, and the latter was also extremely fast. However, this attack still failed to destroy the unknown etheric creature. It only made the opponent change forms much faster.

In addition to red, yellow and blue, there are many other colors. At first it was just a single color, but after "seeing" Chateau again, there were even signs of turning into Chateau.

Just affected by Xia Duo's attack, even if the other party transformed into his appearance, what he finally showed was a twisted, mottled humanoid form.

At the same time, the other party's spiritual scream never stopped, and even became more fierce because of Sha Duo's attack.

For a moment, Xia Duo wondered if it was his active attack that angered the other party. If he hadn't attacked, would the other party have remained quiet?

But there are no ifs for this kind of thing. Xia Duo is sure that if someone with less understanding of the spiritual realm comes over, he will hardly be able to withstand an attack from the opponent.

This kind of weird thing, just because it exists, no human spell caster can leave it alone if they see it. It is nothing more than the difference between elimination and utilization. Xia Duo chose to eliminate it at this moment.

The etheric creatures he encountered in the ruins of Innocent's Mage Tower were invisible, but this one was tangible, and from the looks of it, it seemed that it could change a lot.

In addition, this thing is naturally good at psychic magic, and it is almost certain to be an intelligent being. Once it gets outside, it might cause a lot of trouble!

…

After the mind spell, Shado tried force field spells and energy evocation spells, but neither achieved good results and only made the opponent weaker.

If you keep trying, you may be able to kill the opponent, but the efficiency can be imagined. Basically, high-level mages should not consider going against it, as they will almost certainly die if they encounter it.

Especially in the current environment, the etheric plane overlaps with the main plane, which makes all teleportation spells based on the etheric link ineffective.

As for teleportation spells that use the astral realm as a medium, due to the natural repulsion between the astral realm and the ether, it is difficult for the caster to connect to the astral realm here, and therefore it is almost impossible to use it.

The high-level mage has lost the maximum mobility, which is actually not much better than the mid-level mage.

"Sigh - I don't know what Iolum is doing. I'm afraid it will be difficult to end the mess here!"

Originally it was just a normal magic network riot, and it was not even as serious as when the Mystery Chain collapsed. As long as it was carefully suppressed, channeled, and repaired, it would not be difficult to quell it.

But now it involves ether overlap and there are too many variables. Even Xia Duo instinctively feels that this matter is very difficult to deal with.

Judging from his own experience, he simply cannot handle it properly on his own.

"I hope Iolum has some magical powers!"

Taking one last look at the unknown etheric creature that was still changing its form, Sha Duo suddenly lost all interest and killed it with one finger.

It is difficult for a high-level mage to kill the opponent, but for Xia Duo, it doesn't mean that he can be killed with just a flip of his hand, at least it doesn't take much effort.

After the death of the unknown creature, its form turned into a transparent smoke after a rapid distortion, and it became thinner and thinner.

"Bata——"

What looked like a colorless transparent crystal bead fell to the ground from the dissipating smoke. Xia Duo took a closer look and saw that the crystal was not a complete sphere, but had dozens or hundreds of facets.

Even in the slightly dim etheric mist, it looks completely transparent and sparkling.

"Did you lose your equipment when you defeated monsters?"

To this, Xia Duo's first reaction was ridiculous. If equipment can be dropped by killing monsters, then what should craftsmen and factories do? They can just kill monsters.

But then I thought about it, there are many mysteries in etheric creatures, and we cannot treat them with common sense. How can we know that they will not lose equipment?

No matter what, let’s put things away first!

Thinking like this, Xia Duo made a move, but the bead didn't respond. The [Mage's Hand] that had been tried so many times failed to work at this moment?

Sha Duo suddenly became interested. This was the first time he had seen such a thing. Since he ignored the transformation spell version of the mage's hand, he could directly shape it with a force field and get a force field hand. Can he pick it up? ?

It doesn't have to be the same as a real hand. Xia Duo directly created a clamp that looks like two bowls put together to pick up the multi-faceted crystal bead.

This time it was successful. As the clamp was retracted, the upper half disappeared, turning into a small palm-sized bowl with crystal beads at the bottom and returned to Sha Duo.

Observing and sensing it at close range, Xia Duo always felt an inexplicable sense of familiarity, but after thinking about it, he couldn't think of where he had seen it before.

Simply tracing back memory cannot search for things like intuition and inspiration. It can only search for memories based on objective information actually received by each sense organ.

If you want to search further, you need to trace it back from your subconscious. Standing here, Xia Duo can't worry about doing this.

He hasn't forgotten that an elf just slipped in here not long ago, and it was an elf that had overcome the blockade of more than ten archmages.

Although there is an element of surprise, it also shows that the other party is not an ordinary elf, at least he is also a powerful elf mage.

After hesitating for a moment, Xia Duo did not touch the beads directly to obtain stronger inspiration, but temporarily put them into his portable space.

Anyway, the thing is already in your hands and you can study it anytime. There is no need to risk being attacked by elves and study it here.
