Chapter 511 Escape

Chapter 511 Escape

However, while launching the attack, the two eighth-level dragon blood guards seemed to have noticed something unusual, and the attack spell that was about to touch the central barrier and the ground rune ring was instantly suspended in mid-air, and then even slowly retracted.

This is the unique control of magic for eighth-level professionals. At this level, because their own magic power and will are completely integrated into one, all their spells are like a temporarily extended arm, completely controlled by their own will.

"Wait a minute, there seems to be some special defense system here."

At the same time, Yasira also reacted. A trace of solemnity flashed in his dark golden eyes. He suddenly raised his hand, and a transparent ripple emanated from the armor on his right arm.

As the ripples passed, everything in the room, except for the spherical barrier in the center, was covered with a layer of bright red light, as if some terrifying creature had opened its bloody mouth, wanting to swallow the three people.

Seeing this scene, the three people's expressions changed slightly.

"It seems to be a self-destruct trap. If it is determined to be an invasion by foreign enemies, this place will be completely transformed into a death zone, and everything in the secret room will be destroyed indiscriminately.

And judging by the feedback from the detection device, the power of this trap is likely beyond our ability to deal with it."

With the help of a special detection artifact, after carefully identifying the area that was particularly brightened by the previous ripples, a dragon blood secret guard spoke up and identified the hidden crisis here.

"My Lords, is there any way to remove the trap here? The sword in the barrier is very important to me!"

After hesitating for a few seconds, Yasira looked at his two personal guards with sharp eyes.

"I'm afraid... it's difficult. Breaking this kind of high-level magic array with non-violent means is not our strong point, Lord Yasira."

The two looked at each other, and finally, the slightly stronger Seamus spoke tactfully, breaking Yasira's expectations.

As everyone knows, the strongest point of the Aslade family is actually the inheritance of the dragon knight, rather than its profound attainments in magic.

"Perhaps, we can set up a delayed detonation spell here? After triggering the self-destruct system here, we can find a way to take away the sword?"

Morag offered another solution. If the bomb cannot be dismantled, why not just detonate it? "But if we do that, what if the things in the barrier are destroyed as well?"

After listening to his colleague's advice, Seamus couldn't help but pour cold water on him.

"...No, wait, Mr. Morag's suggestion does seem to be the best solution right now."

But Yasira suddenly thought of something and raised his hand to stop Simus from speaking.

"As for whether the sword will be destroyed by the self-destruct system, you two don't have to worry. If it is really the sword I imagined, then this self-destruct system without rule power will definitely not be enough to destroy it.

And if it is really destroyed, then it can only prove that the sword is a fake."

The plan was finalized. Fearing that someone else might find the place ahead of time, the three men quickly set up a time-delay magic trap and then evacuated.

Avis, who was hiding in the dark and watching, also quickly moved away. In his perception, the intense sense of death crisis became stronger and stronger, and even though he had left the secret room far away, it still lingered in his mind.

Damn it, could that be the self-destruction device of the entire ruins? While quickly fleeing towards the entrance of the ruins, Avis couldn't help but complain in his heart.

The one who snatched the Sword of the Chosen King from the imperial royal family was a mysterious ninth-level extremely powerful person.

As a secret laboratory of the ninth level, this place also uses subspace technology, and is actually not in the main world at all. If you want to escape from here, you can only go through the original entrance of this fragment space.

Avis didn't think that his clone could withstand the power of the defensive measures left by the other party.

On the other side, three people who were also quickly leaving the secret room unexpectedly met a familiar guy on the road.

"Hey, isn't this Lord Yasira? Where are you in such a hurry to go?"

As a somewhat frivolous voice sounded, a huge magic barrier suddenly rose in front of the three people. The strong and destructive black electric current flowing on it made the three of them frown.

"You are trying to start a war with me by stopping us here, Skarsa Enoch?"

A trace of gloom flashed across his dark golden eyes, and Yasira's hand was already on the hilt of the sword at his waist. He stared fiercely at the young man in front of him with black hair and silver eyes, who was holding a long-handled staff of exaggerated proportions, as if he was going to attack him if they disagreed.

"Oh my, I'm so scared - I'm actually being threatened by the powerful seventh-level expert, Lord Yasira Aslaide!"

But in response to his threat, the young man who blocked his way showed an exaggerated look of fear. But combined with the eighth-level aura he exuded, it gave people a strong sense of yin and yang.

The next moment, his expression suddenly returned to normal, as if his personality had changed in an instant.

"But the direction you appeared from is the core area of ​​the ruins, right? Now you want to leave? Then, can you share your findings? Or do you want me to search it myself?"

As he spoke, three silver-white arcane golems slowly emerged from the shadows behind him, each of which exuded an eighth-order magical aura. And judging by the faint resonance of their fluctuations, the three golems seemed to be able to perform special joint attacks.

Among the high-ranking officials of the empire, Enoch and the Aslade family were notoriously at odds with each other. Even though Aslade's relationship with the other two of the four major families was also bad, it was far from the level of hostility with the Enoch family.

The Enoch family believed that the people of Aslade were a group of uncivilized, bloodthirsty beasts who only relied on their brains full of muscles and their instincts and claws to tear their prey into pieces. Their style of doing things was a complete blasphemy to the word nobility.

The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!

The Aslade family, on the other hand, believed that the people of Enoch were a bunch of arrogant nerds who could only dodge and cast spells from a distance in battle. Their expressions as if everything was under control were simply disgusting.

"Go away, Skarsa! I don't have time to tangle with you right now."

Being blocked by the guy he usually didn't deal with, Yasira became a little anxious. A fierce light flashed in his eyes, and he instantly launched a long-accumulated slash.

Although he couldn't see vague fragments of the future like Avis, a sense of crisis like a knife hanging over his head also lingered in his heart.

For this reason, he did not continue talking nonsense and directly launched his full-strength attack, hoping to take advantage of Skarsa's inattention and forcibly break through the black lightning barrier that blocked them.

But Skarsa just waved his staff, and a series of negative states directly entangled Yasi. Weakness, slowness, freezing, curse, perception distortion, gravity change, space folding...

Even though these controls were blocked by the armor and amulets on Yasira, Skarsa's hard power would ultimately exceed that of Yasira.

When the fierce sword struck the black lightning barrier, its power was only two or three tenths of what it had before.

The barrier easily blocked his attack, and the black lightning that spread along the sword in the opposite direction even injured Yasira a little.

"What are you so anxious about?"

There was a faint light flashing in his silver-white eyes, and Skarsa keenly noticed that Yasira was more anxious than usual.

This is his combat state. In this state, all meaningless emotions will subside, and perception, calculation and mental strength will be specialized and strengthened.

At this time, his golem had entangled the two eighth-level opponents. In no more than ten minutes, he would be able to completely subdue Yasira.

After estimating the current strength of both sides and realizing that he could not break through the opponent's blockade in a short time, Yasira had no time to explain and immediately lifted the delay spell he had cast earlier, not wanting to be buried here with the annoying guy opposite.

But after the magic was lifted, Yasira was horrified to find that the terrifying sense of crisis had not disappeared at all! (End of this chapter)
