Arcane Lord

Fenowita couldn't believe her eyes, but that was the fact, and the most important thing was that what the human was holding in his hand——

Stardew Scepter! !

Although Fenowita has never seen the family's symbol of power, the Stardew Scepter, with his own eyes before, he has seen related albums, projections, and even imitations with slightly different shapes countless times!

He was sure that it was the Stardew Scepter!

It's just that it was acquired by a human for some reason, but it doesn't matter, he can take it back soon. The treasures of the Stardew family cannot be interfered with by others!

Taking advantage of the magic network from the outside world to fill the "blank" within the Mystery Lock range, Fenowita activated the protective magic weapons on his body one by one, and blessed all the protective spells he had mastered.

Finally, he pulled out a long sword from his waist and walked into the chaotic area of ​​​​the magic network with the sword in hand.

If it weren't for the purpose of obtaining the Stardew Scepter as soon as possible, he wouldn't need to take this risk, but the family guard may arrive next moment, so he has to do so.

Just one step into the chaotic area, several protective spells on his body were destroyed. Fenowita's expression remained unchanged and he calmly added them again.

In the next step, a dark red fireball suddenly appeared out of thin air and crashed straight towards him. Fenowita did not try to avoid it.

He had the experience of exploring the ruins of Mystery Locks. These random magics were just chaotic magic nets that sensed him as the source of interference and were activated independently. He couldn't avoid them and could only bear them.

And not only was he attacked, everything in the entire chaotic area would be attacked at once. Fortunately, the power of these attacks was not great.

Just add a few protective spells occasionally.

If you want to save trouble, you can even forcibly comb part of the magic network around you to avoid those random attacks, but this method saves trouble but not effort.

It is generally used when multiple people are exploring. Perhaps the family guards who arrive later will adopt this method.

But at this moment, Fenowita must have room to deal with the human in the ruins - or the Stardew Scepter.

The Stardew Scepter was only used as a symbol of power and a demiplane key thousands of years ago. Few people know its specific function, but there is no doubt that it is a very powerful magic item.

The rebound of the magic network caused various magical phenomena to appear frequently within the scope of the original mystery lock. The images of humans in the distance had long been submerged behind various strange phenomena. Fenowei Tower just locked in that direction from a distance and kept moving forward.

All the attacks that hit him along the way had no impact on his agile pace. A light leap was enough for an ordinary human to take two or three steps.

After a while, Fenowita's pace slowed down, and he became extra cautious, because the human was less than a hundred meters away!

He could already see the other party's gray hair, as well as the ruins of the damaged magic circle on the ground whose function was unknown. The Stardew Scepter was in the hand of the human mage. The other party seemed to be studying it?

"This is not a good place to do research!"

Fenowita secretly complained in his heart and stopped. Although there were various strange phenomena here that blocked the sight of both parties, they were only slightly obstructed.

No one knows whether the human mage holding the Stardew Scepter can detect his existence.

“This location is just right!”

Fenowita is very familiar with the human mage's tactics. He wants to run away when something goes wrong, and lacks respect for fighting and opponents. Therefore, if he wants to deal with the human mage, he must first cut off his retreat.

Only in this way can they dare to face each other head on.

Now that we are in a chaotic area of ​​​​the Magic Network, the wide-area [Restriction Technique] is basically equivalent to confronting the Magic Network in the entire chaotic area, so the most appropriate approach is to block the opponent itself.

Fenowita first forcibly combed the half-foot magic web around him to create good conditions for the next spell, and then silently chanted the spell.

It is said to be a spell, but it is actually a poem. Fenowita hides the magical elements in the voice and intonation. It is not that this step cannot be omitted, but it is more calm and elegant to cast the spell in this way.

Rather than being as rude and impatient as human mages!

Of course, in the fierce magic confrontation, the elves also have ways to adapt, but this opening poem is still indispensable!

…

At the same time, Epps, who was only a hundred meters away from the Elf Archmage, looked at the mysterious scepter in his hand and felt worried.

According to his original plan, after obtaining the plane crystal, he would use the balancing effect of the magic circle to teleport out randomly. As long as he left the chaotic area of ​​​​the magic network, he could immediately teleport back to his territory.

However, the facts are always unexpected. First, when the magic circle "obtained" the plane crystal, what it retrieved was not the plane crystal, but a mysterious scepter. As a result, the magic circle was completely destroyed, causing him to lose the ability to teleport.

Later, he discovered that this mysterious scepter could automatically sort out the surrounding magic network environment, but the half-foot "balance field" was not under his control. It was only mechanically controlled by him, either opening or closing.

Epps has tried many times, but as long as he holds this mysterious scepter and turns on the "Balance Field", he cannot cast spells, and of course it is impossible to teleport away.

Correspondingly, outside spells cannot affect him as long as they cannot break this layer of "balance field", which is equivalent to being protected by the [Magic Immunity] effect at all times.

But that’s not what Epps wants!

He wanted to leave this chaotic area of ​​​​the magic network quickly. If he left, he might meet other people outside, and someone might even have come in now!

There isn't much time left for him!

Epps groped for this mysterious scepter again. He thought he knew a lot about elves' magic items, but he was really powerless when it came to this mysterious scepter inlaid with plane crystals!

"how so!"

He felt as if he was trapped in some kind of whirlpool. If he couldn't get out as soon as possible, there might be greater trouble or even disaster.

Just as Epps was struggling with the scepter in his hand, he suddenly caught a glimpse of a green ray from the corner of his eye, heading straight towards him from a hundred meters away from the left!

Epps’ first reaction was not to defend himself, but—

"Someone has come to investigate so soon?! We can't let him recognize me!"

But then he realized that the other party had already launched an attack on him. How could he not see him? As long as he knew his appearance, it was easy to find out his identity!

Epps was about to dodge the opponent's attack, but the ray dissipated as soon as it flew in front of him. This was not because of the "balance field" of the mysterious scepter, but because of the influence of the environment.

And when the ray disappeared, he also recognized the hidden information of this spell——

It's an elf!

This is the last situation Epps wants to see, and the opponent will imprison his teleportation ability as soon as he takes action, even though he no longer has the teleportation ability at this moment.

But how could such an action not make him angry!

The two restrictions that casters are most afraid of are the restriction of flying and the restriction of teleportation. Apart from these two, spellcasters have nothing to fear.

"We can't let him leave!" Epps made an instant decision.

Although he cannot cast [Teleportation] at this moment, there are no big restrictions on other low-level spells.

As long as the "balance field" of the mysterious scepter is turned off, his own ability to sort out the magic web is enough for him to use low-level spells. But in this chaotic magic network environment, he was not sure whether those spells could still hit the opponent.

Must be closer!
