After this battle, the Nine Luminaries Palace was destined to run out of power and would no longer be able to contend with Su Bai.
With control of the Falcon's Nest, Su Bai was even more powerful.
In just three days.
They wiped out all the remaining forces of the Nine Luminaries Palace on the grasslands.
Their remaining forces could only retreat to the southern region, but with Su Bai controlling a large number of resource points and able to develop rapidly, a complete withdrawal was only a matter of time.
During this period.
Su Bai did not give up exploring the Lost City.
He led his team to wipe out all the remaining leaders and lords in the chaotic district.
And the Nine Luminaries Palace's departure.
This also means that the four tickets for the West have completely fallen into Su Bai's hands.
The Emperor and his entourage couldn't even muster a four-person team, let alone attempt to seize the enormous treasure of the Lost City.
All of this is thanks to Su Bai's mechanical pocket watch, which is infused with the spirit of time.
It has been successfully upgraded to a legendary item.
[Prophecy of Time]
【special】
[Rank: Legendary]
[Level: ? ?]
Life: +
[Mana: +]
【Feature ①: When holding this pocket watch, the holder will always be on the correct timeline and will not be affected by any time interference effects. This effect can be manually turned off】
【Feature 2: The 'hour hand' of this pocket watch is bound to the 'Lost City', allowing it to accurately calculate the time when a rainstorm will arrive】
【Feature 3: Destroying this pocket watch will immediately rewind the timeline to a random point in the past. This effect is irreversible and can only be used once】
[Note: This mechanical pocket watch, infused with a trace of the power of the mysterious creature 'Time Beast,' has undergone a complete transformation, and in the current plane, it can unleash energy comparable to 'the power of rules.']
[Requirement: This item is bound to the White Emperor's exclusive account, cannot be dropped, and cannot be traded.]
...
Legendary items are often said to possess incredible powers.
This pocket watch is the most exquisite of them all!
The first two points ensure that Su Bai will never again be affected by something like the 'Six Buildings Illusion'.
The latter would allow him to always know when the rainstorm would arrive.
No more need to resort to the most cumbersome trial and error methods.
In this way, Su Bai and Ning Hongchen were able to stay in the Lost City for at least two hours every day.
No need to waste any more time.
As for its third attribute...
When Su Bai first saw it, his heart was filled with a huge wave of emotion. Wasn't this effect just a weakened version of the mysterious jade pendant he had obtained before his transmigration?
The jade pendant allowed him to travel back to the first day the game launched.
The effect of this pocket watch is completely random!
but.
Randomness always carries the risk of randomness.
If he were in danger and had to destroy the pocket watch, resetting the timeline to before the danger would be ideal.
But what if we rewind the timeline too far, even back to before he was born...?
That would be such a terrible thing!
Unless absolutely necessary.
Su Bai certainly wouldn't use the third characteristic of this pocket watch easily.
He has already been very successful in this life and has left no regrets, so he doesn't want to go through it again!
...
East of the city.
Earl's Manor.
Su Bai had already gathered all the materials for the Countess's mission two days ago.
But because they didn't understand Wendell's purpose.
He never dared to hand in the task.
These past few days.
He also found the clues that Patch had obtained about Wendell.
It's almost certain that the 'choir' skin on this guy's body was stolen from somewhere; he's definitely not a member of the choir!
Meanwhile, during their 'friendly' conversation, Patch also told Su Bai about a special location.
However, Su Bai had explored the area and found that it was protected by a barrier that only Wendell himself could open.
He had no choice but to devise a plan to lure him there on his own.
He took out his pocket watch.
Su Bai glanced at the time displayed on the screen.
The pointer moved slowly.
Until a certain moment.
Boom!!
A sudden burst of intense flames erupted from a certain location within the city.
Su Bai waited outside the manor.
Not long after.
Then Wendell, wearing a silver mask, hurriedly walked out of the manor.
Whew~
A gray fog filled the air.
Su Bai suddenly felt as if he had fallen into the dark side of the entire world.
No one could detect it.
He hung at a distance, always maintaining a safe distance of more than ten meters from Wendell, and followed him all the way to a basement somewhere in the city.
"Um?"
Just as Wendell was about to open the basement barrier, he turned around as if sensing something.
But I didn't see anything.
He shook his head slightly, reached out to dispel the surrounding barrier, and stepped into the dark basement.
Su Bai didn't rush to follow.
I waited for three minutes.
Wendell, holding a bloodstained machete, reappeared from the darkness behind the door. A hint of suspicion flashed in his eyes behind the mask. He thought to himself that perhaps he was being too sensitive.
Knock knock knock!
He knocked lightly on the door three times.
moment.
The surrounding illusion seemed to have shed a layer of disguise, revealing its true appearance; this was what the barrier looked like when it was fully open.
Su Bai no longer hesitated.
He slipped into the basement while Wendell wasn't looking.
As soon as he entered the basement, he was stunned by what he saw. The basement was full of people, each one lifelike!
Judging from their attire, there are not only commoners and noble generals, but also different kinds of monsters.
even.
Su Bai also saw several Sumerian people with rosy complexions who still looked alive!
