Chapter 673: Another Incident
Kismet has never interfered with the sealing matter.
No matter whether the other side is busy and happy about success, or dead silent and anxious about the malfunction of the magic circle.
He was like an outsider. The life and death of the Borderland and who would become the next third-level wizard seemed to have nothing to do with him.
But now, he, an outsider, has become the best person to improve the ice lock seal.
He is very powerful, and no one in the second level present can figure out his background.
He was very used to the pollution and danger of the Borderlands. Before Thor came, he had stayed here for a long time and understood the rules of this place.
But until Thor mentioned this man, everyone seemed to have forgotten his existence.
No matter how busy or anxious they were, no one would approach Kismet who was standing alone in a corner far away from the crowd.
Of course, if Kismet knew that Thor would pull him out at this time, he would probably have just left.
At this moment, he was called by name by Thor and was stared at by the most powerful wizards present. The sense of secrecy that he had just felt was gone.
He ignored the gazes of others, looked at Thor, suddenly laughed, and then sighed.
"Well, I'm fine. What do you need from me?"
Kismet didn't know what Thor and the others had just discussed, but he was very clear that there was a problem with the ice lock array and it could no longer achieve the intended sealing goal.
Being called over for help at this time is most likely not a good thing.
Although he knew it clearly in his heart, he did not refuse, but walked towards Thor while swinging his silver harp.
Thor briefly explained the improvements he was going to make to strengthen the seal, and finally told Kismet about the responsibilities he would have to shoulder.
"Hmm..." Kismet held his chin, "It sounds dangerous."
"The seal of the eye of the storm concerns the entire no-man's land, and this is something that Ophelia attaches great importance to." Pearl immediately said seriously.
Ever since the last time they were in danger at the Old Manor, Pearl knew that Kismet was working for Ophelia.
At this time, she didn't want Thor to take out the Baisek Mirror, and Thor just happened to propose a new plan, so she naturally had to work hard to ensure that the new plan could be implemented smoothly.
First threaten Kismet with Ophelia, and if he doesn't obey, threaten him with his life.
Anyway, no matter how famous Kismet is or how arrogant he is, he is just a second-level wizard.
Kismet shrank his neck, hugged the harp tightly, tilted his head and glanced at Pearl, "Oh, don't scare me, scare me again, and I will collapse on the spot for you to see!"
This man! Pearl frowned and was about to give Kismet a hard time, when Thor spoke behind her.
"Kismet, are you willing to take this mission? This mission is indeed very dangerous, and most people can't take it. If you really don't want to do it and don't have the confidence to complete it, you can refuse. After all, we don't have time to test your courage and strength."
Kismet held his chin and smiled, "Are you trying to provoke me? Haha, I won't be influenced by it."
Just when others thought Kismet would refuse, he unexpectedly made a 180-degree turn.
"Such an important task should naturally be entrusted to a powerful person like me. You know, among the second-level wizards in the entire wizarding world, I am one of the strongest."
No one intended to compete with Kismet for the ranking of the second-level wizard. Since Kismet was willing to send the mirror into the frozen old manor, others naturally did not mind letting him have a say.
Just as everyone breathed a sigh of relief and began to prepare to move the mirror, another person came over.
Lucy came over wearing a mask.
Because she had been affected by the pollution of the Eye of the Storm before, her spirit was still unstable and she was unable to help seal the Eye of the Storm, but she had been helping Corey set up the ice lock array.
After all, she had also conducted in-depth research on this ice lock array.
So when Lucy just came over, Thor thought she wanted to come over to help.
Unexpectedly, Lucy said, "It's too dangerous for Kismet to deliver the mirror alone. I'll go with him. If anything goes wrong, we can help each other."
Thor knew that Lucy's opinion of Kismet had changed since she left the Old Manor last time.
But he didn't expect that Lucy would be willing to go deep into the old manor with Kismet.
And judging from Lucy's appearance, she didn't seem to be hypnotized by Kismet.
Thor looked at Kismet, who did not object, and then at Herbert and Pearl.
The other party nodded.
Pearl said meaningfully: "I will watch over them."
With a Level 3 watching over him, Thor felt relieved. He turned to Corey and said, "Next, please ask Wizard Corey to continue to preside over the operation of the entire magic circle."
"Me?" Corey's eyes widened slightly. It was obvious that Thor was in control of the overall situation now, so why would he give up the hosting position?
"Well," Thor said as a matter of course, "Although the entire magic circle has not changed, the distance and direction of the mapping have changed. You should be more familiar with the calculations in this regard."
"So what do you do?"
"Me?" Thor looked at Kismet, who had already accepted his fate and followed Lucy to the mirror, and gently rubbed the black stains between his fingers. "I'll make a third plan."
For the first time, Corey showed a lively expression that didn't belong to a doll. "Do you have a third plan?"
Corey did not ask what Thor's third plan was. He only knew that when Kismet and Lucy were holding the mirror and walking quickly and steadily towards the black hole under the protection of Pearl and Herbert, Thor was standing on the edge of the old manor, holding a longbow that he had taken out at some point.
The longbow arrows are specially made. The end of the arrow is not the common tail feathers, but a large group of irregularly shaped ice crystals.
It makes one doubt how accurate this arrow will be once it is shot.
No one knows what this arrow was used for.
Just like no one knew Thor could use a bow and arrow.
Wizards and bows and arrows, the style of painting is not very harmonious.
Kismet had a smile on his face, as if he had seen something very interesting.
Lucy was in a bad mood because of her distorted face. She escorted the mirror very seriously to avoid the formation being unable to be projected onto the mirror due to incorrect route.
At the same time, she also had to be careful not to damage the cracked mirror further during transportation.
Compared to Kismet who seemed to be just hanging around, Lucy was quite dedicated.
As the two approached the mapping point designed by Thor, the impact of the eye of the storm began to emerge.
Kismet paused while walking, and when he looked down he saw that his two feet had changed direction at some point.
It has become a shape with the heel in front and toes facing backwards!
The tearing pain reached his brain only a little later after he lowered his head and realized the change in his ankle.
But Kismet was not afraid at all. He even chuckled and began to adapt to the way of walking with his heels lifted first.
"How are you?" Lucy noticed Kismet's changes and asked in a low voice after finding that his actions were not affected.
"It's okay...it's quite interesting." Kismet's mouth corners rose higher and higher, as if he had discovered something interesting again.
"That's good." Lucy continued walking.
There was no change in her movements, as if the old manor had no effect on her at all.
As everyone watched with bated breath, the two finally arrived at the designated location, and the eye of the storm did not experience any major outbursts during this period.
Next, as long as the two of them put the mirror in place and fix it, they can let go and get out of the range of distortion as soon as possible.
Corey can also organize people to open the magic circle again and continue to seal the eye of the storm.
However, at this moment, something unexpected happened!
Just as Keith was about to turn around, he suddenly noticed Lucy raising a hand.
He turned around and saw the fist with healthy white skin, wrapped in lightning...
Smashed it hard on the mirror!
