Arcane Lord

————It will take about half an hour~~

The next moment, Bugif saw strong spiritual energy fluctuations erupting above the temple not far away, and an almost visible pale purple spiritual energy barrier enveloped the entire city.

"Guard the temple!"

Bugif roared subconsciously, and then turned into a stream of light, throwing away his subordinates and rushing towards the temple. He knew very well that no matter how badly Toxent was destroyed by the enemy, as long as the temple was not lost, he could succeed. The faults offset the faults, and the merits even outweighed the faults.

Once the temple is lost, even if Toxent is preserved, it will be difficult for him to achieve any good results. There is only one reason, and that is that the temple preserves a vital spiritual artifact.

Perhaps to put it another way, it is not that the artifact is kept in the temple or in Toxent, but that Toxent and the temple exist because of the artifact.

When Bugif rushed to the temple, psychic scholars and warriors who lived or stayed in other places in the city had also arrived one after another. Not only Bugif, but almost all the Zhamdas people were deeply aware of the significance of the temple.

At this moment, on the floating city.

Sha Duo looked at the detection feedback from Niya with some surprise. At the moment when the floating city had just arrived, under Niya's guidance, he fired a low-yield light of annihilation towards the lower city.

What he didn't expect was that the tried and tested Light of Annihilation encountered effective resistance for the first time. A barrier that could not yet be ascertained enveloped the entire city, and the Light of Annihilation began to dissipate little by little before it even got close. .

When it actually arrived in the city, the impact was not even as great as the impact of ordinary elemental turbulence.

Of course, facing a protective power that can block even the light of annihilation, the elemental turbulence may not even be qualified to scratch it.

Faced with this situation, Xia Duo did not panic, but was very happy because he finally found an existence that could withstand the light of annihilation. Although it was only a psychic version for the time being and it was not in his hands yet, he believed that based on reality The magic system can also find alternatives.

"Niya, seal off the surrounding area and synchronize the location of the psychic mage outside the unknown barrier to me!"

"yes!"

Niya received the order and immediately transmitted it to the high-level mage in the control room next door through a spiritual link. This was a new order. There were previous orders to synchronize the battlefield situation and were still being executed.

Xia Duo himself continued to use the reduced power of the light of annihilation to test the unknown barrier below. On the one hand, it was because he didn't know where the limit of the barrier below was. If the stud failed, he could only run away in despair. On the way.

On the other hand, he also wanted to try to analyze the realistic basis of the enchantment below. Although psychic spells or creations can be imaginative, they basically have a realistic basis.

Shado has never seen a psychic spell purely generated by thought. Maybe there is one, but even if there is, he believes that it is very unrealistic to fight the entire reality with just one power.

As long as he can find the foundation of the barrier below in the real world, he can continue to develop new spells belonging to the Nese magic system based on it.

For this reason, even if this revenge action does not meet the ideal expectations, it is acceptable.

…

Here Xia Duo is testing, and the city of Toxent below also started a counterattack on their side after experiencing the initial chaos.

Xia Duo's brain received alarm messages one after another, basically saying that the Mystery Lock environment was continuing to change, but the related systems were running stably.

In everyday terms, it’s probably——

The enemy is trying to attack the floating city, but cannot even break through the protection of the Mystic Lock.

The main job of the Floating City Mystic Lock is to provide a stable operating environment for all equipment and facilities in the Floating City, and at the same time, it plays the role of connecting all equipment and facilities in series to provide control convenience for Xia Duo.

The protective function is just incidental.

Although Shado's adaptive mythic locks are different from the traditional Elf Mystique Locks in the main plane, Zhamdas dared to assassinate the next generation crown king of Ketmir, so he couldn't be so crotchless, right?

Sha Duo carefully raised the protection level of the floating city, and soon he was in sync with the position of the first Zhamdas psychic mage to leave the barrier.

So he swept the light of annihilation without hesitation, and the feedback from the wide-area detection arrived almost at the same time. The psychic mage who left the barrier was annihilated into a ball of bright light without any room for resistance, and then quickly dissipated in the air. .

But psionic energy once again surprised Xia Duo. A faint purple figure visible to the naked eye appeared where the psionic mage was annihilated.

It's like the soul, but Xia Duo knows very well that once the soul is separated from the body, it will be pulled to the outer plane, whether it is the Kingdom of God or home, where is the soul's final destination.

But now, what is that pale purple figure in the lake?

Before Xia Duo could figure it out, the pale purple Mohu figure plunged into the city barrier and disappeared. Then the city barrier reached the light of annihilation and the strength of the test increased a bit.

"Is it a sacrifice? Or is it a sharing mechanism between spiritual energies from the same source?"

But no matter which one it is, Sha Duo cannot ignore the psychic mages running out of the city below, and he believes that even if the thoughts, spirits or other concepts of those psychic mages have survived, their physical bodies will never be found again. gone back.

No, given the spiritual nature of spiritual energy, it may not be impossible to reshape the physical body.

Thinking of this, Xia Duo slightly strengthened his testing of the city barrier below. Although this did not help him much in discovering that the barrier corresponded to the foundation of reality, it allowed him to test the reality in the city.

Sure enough, the next moment, the pale purple city barrier below began to have different colors. The outermost layer was the thickest, while the inner part was especially blue, almost non-existent.

Correspondingly, it can still remain intact in the face of the slightly strengthened low-yield light of annihilation.

Sha Duo originally thought that he could project the light of annihilation directly into the barrier, but the barrier below was different from the normal magic barrier. Even though it seemed that there were loopholes inside, it actually distorted the boundaries between inside and outside.

All the light of annihilation projected into the barrier appeared on the surface of the barrier, and was then blocked by the sacrificed or strengthened barrier.

However, the essence of the Light of Annihilation is not an energy attack, but an ultimate entropy increase spell. The barrier seems to block the annihilation effect of the Light of Annihilation, but the entropy increase is not so easy to resist.

Invisible hidden dangers already exist inside the barrier. Even if Xia Duo keeps testing with low-yield light of annihilation, he will be able to break through the city sooner or later.

…

At the same time, in Toxent City.

A group of psychic scholars and warriors gathered around the city lord Bugif. There was worry on their faces, but their overall mood was relatively stable.

One of the scholars asked the city lord: "Lord Bugif, when will the support from the Zeqi School arrive? If it relies solely on the support of divine artifacts, I'm afraid it won't last long!"

"Don't worry, I have already contacted Mr. Zalan Monai."

Although he said that others don't have to worry, the expression on Bugev's face was not relaxed at all. "The problem now is that the enemy's floating fortress may also have an artifact, and its impact has almost frozen the area. transition channel.

"However, Lord Zalammonai has decided to use the capital's number one artifact to allow the psionic masters from behind to quickly arrive at the Toxent battlefield in the form of psionic incarnations. What we have to do now is to protect the temple while doing our best to protect the temple. Find out the details of the enemy's methods for future reference."
