Chapter 396 Demolition and Escape
Compared with the space ring, the space expansion box has many disadvantages, such as being not portable enough, easily damaged in structure, and poor in concealment.
Since it is a space item itself, the space expansion box cannot be placed into special subspaces such as space rings and portable spaces.
But it also has a very important advantage. Because the base material is large enough, the volume of the space expansion box can be made much larger than that of the space ring.
For example, now Anvis has prepared an expansion box that looks like a trolley suitcase, and the space inside it is as large as hundreds of cubic meters.
In fact, he had originally prepared it in advance for moving the secret library of the ancient magic empire, but now he could try it out here in advance.
As a secret base with a very high level of confidentiality, where even teleportation requires going through a special teleportation room, the value of the resources in this secret library is not as high as that in the Yuelin Castle warehouse, but it is not much different.
Unlike the grey display cabinets that stored rare and high-value resources, the white display cabinets used space expansion magic to store various types of common mid- and high-level resources of slightly lower value but huge quantities in different categories.
Why does it feel so wonderful to enter someone else's territory and rummage through boxes and cabinets? Thinking happily in his heart, Avis skillfully opened the display cabinet in front of him, took out the things inside and stuffed them into the storage box, while leaving the same substitute in the original place with a real phantom.
In just seventeen minutes, Avis cleared almost all the gray and white display cabinets in the secret library.
The high-level magic materials, magic crystals, rare items, magic weapons, accessories and other resources harvested were countless, and most of the space in the suitcase had been filled, with only the last dozen cubic meters of space left.
Moreover, since this is a secret research base, the magical concepts displayed by some of the new arcane props are also very valuable for reference and research in Avis's eyes.
After all the ordinary display cabinets were moved, Avis checked the secret library again with the attitude of a player searching for hidden treasure chests, and investigated every suspicious corner in detail.
But unfortunately, the builders here didn't seem to have any idea of hiding another secret library inside the secret library.
After a turn, Avis returned to the area with the dark gold display cabinets.
On the clone's side, the gray mist ritual array was almost complete, and the huge array surrounded Avis's clone in the center. The invisible power of fate began to stir faintly, making him feel a little uneasy.
Without any hesitation, Avis took out the dream artifact he had made earlier from the old secret book and activated it directly in the secret library.
When the space began to fluctuate, the fact that the secret vault had been invaded by foreign enemies could no longer be concealed, and the sharp sound of magic alarms resounded throughout the entire underground base.
At the same time, in the laboratory, Gray Mist, who was guiding the construction of the magic circle, suddenly had a nervous ache and instinctively sensed that something was wrong.
It seems that some dangerous and unexpected situation is about to happen to you!
Although they were both high-level predictors, their actions had a destiny-blurring effect, but when Avis's actions truly threatened Gray Mist's life, his own blurring aura became ineffective.
Hearing the alarm of the secret vault being invaded, Gray Mist immediately realized that there must be some kind of positioning device that he had not discovered.
At this moment, after realizing that the alarm and the crisis prophecy appeared almost at the same time, he didn't even care about the magic circle he was building. He grabbed Fiona in the magic circle without hesitation, and quickly teleported away.
This is one of his privileges as the supreme controller of the secret base. In the entire base, he is the only one who can teleport freely.
At the same time, he had already prepared for how he would escape if the enemy really found this place.
In the central area of the base, a one-time ultra-long-range random teleportation array has already been set up.
The space of this base was in a particularly chaotic state and could not be completely blocked in a short period of time. If something went wrong, he only needed to teleport away with the target immediately.
The enemies chasing him would be too cautious to launch a powerful indiscriminate attack on him. This way, he would have a great chance of escaping safely.
But the moment the figure appeared in the magic circle, the gray mist's movements instantly froze.
The invisible sense of life and death crisis stimulated his nerves like cold steel needles, causing him to let go of Fiona as if he had been electrocuted, and he was about to teleport away again in an instant.
But it was too late !
Along with a slight sound of matter being annihilated, a beam of pure black annihilation magic power penetrated from the lower part of the floor of the teleportation room at nearly the speed of light.
With Fiona as the center, covering the entire room—
Everything in the direction where the magic beam passed was annihilated into thin air. Even the aftermath of that dead silence made Gray Fog shudder.
At the critical moment, he only had time to activate a amulet on his chest before his figure was instantly swallowed up, turned into a ball of gray mist, and then completely annihilated.
On the surface outside the secret base, a huge beam of jet-black magic power broke through the earth and shot straight into the sky.
At the same time, a ball of light gray mist suddenly emerged out of thin air on the surface, and then condensed into the figure of the prophet gray mist.
However, the gray fog that reappeared took on a strange, faintly transparent state, and its breath became much weaker.
This was a side effect of the life-saving item. He had just used his own destiny mirror image to save himself from a fatal disaster. However, the death of his own destiny mirror image would also partially reflect back to his own destiny line.
Most importantly, Gray Mist finally realized that his judgment had been wrong again.
That attack, which was powerful enough to reach the limit-breaking level, was not aimed at him at all, but at Fiona! At the same time, the high recognition of that attack also reminded him of its source: the core weapon of the Themis Colossus that appeared once when everyone was exploring the floating city on the meteorite! In other words, behind this attack, it was the people from the [Ring of Truth] who were behind it? ! With doubts in his heart, Gray Mist suddenly began to miss the star that he had just ordered to leave.
If Xing was still here, he could have returned to the base after avoiding the attack, instead of being afraid to go back like he is now.
Inside the secret vault, although Avis couldn't see the current state of the gray fog, he could imagine what it looked like.
Previously, because he was worried that Gray Mist would dodge, the target that Avis chose was not Gray Mist himself, but his own clone.
This was his preparation for escaping in the event of his disappearance.
As a result, Mr. Gray Mist seemed to have been hit hard unexpectedly.
