Chapter 551 The Enemy's Purpose
Since the effect of the mystery disappeared after the stone house was smashed, Xia Ye Yinghuo did not discover how the mysterious stones in her warehouse were made.
What’s interesting is that although the stone house has been smashed into pieces, it still attracts the lightning as if instinctively.
Anvis and Lanno took away the most essential part of the stone roof that had been baptized by silver lightning for many years, as well as the largest fragments. The remaining smaller fragments were left to the companions to pick up.
After looting everything, the top of the mountain had become completely bare. Silver lightning struck aimlessly at the original location, but the stone house below had completely disappeared.
In fact, the rocks on the top of this mountain also have a certain value. However, the space props of Anvis and others have limited capacity, and the value of those rocks is not as good as the materials near the legendary Titan's residence.
The people, whose standards had been raised, now looked down upon that thing completely.
After collecting the spoils, everyone was faced with a very realistic problem.
How long will it take for the enemy to reach them?
Although Avis had previously sought help from many players outside through live broadcast, due to the delay of the live broadcast, many players were actually unable to receive his tasks until three magic hours later.
Moreover, the players reported his intelligence to the ruling class, and many nobles held an emergency meeting to discuss how to deal with it. Finally, they arranged for His Majesty the Ninth Order Extreme to come to the rescue. The time consumed in this process cannot be ignored.
Originally, Avis was still considering whether he could rely on the existence of this miniature secret realm to keep the enemy out.
But after hearing what the projection said, he changed his mind.
Beings of that level had already specifically reminded him that the other party was coming for the silver obelisk, so it would undoubtedly be very foolish to hope that the other party could not find this place.
From a personal perspective, Avis is not really afraid of those pagans. But not being afraid does not mean not taking them seriously.
Sneaking into the Glorious Secret Realm under the nose of the Ninth Order Limit, the other party must have paid a huge price for this. If he said there was no important purpose, Avis himself would not believe it.
For this kind of pagan church, the only core purpose is to welcome the "God" they believe in and the return of the fear and darkness from the ancient times.
Although Avis personally could not understand the way these pagans think, if they really had some way to call upon the so-called "God", even if they were suppressed by this world, it would be enough to make him suffer.
And according to the information revealed by the mysterious high elves' needs, the silver obelisk in his hand containing the 'transcendent essence' is also the enemy's target.
It is not difficult to guess that the thing definitely plays an important role in the enemy's ritual.
Thinking of the silver obelisk, Avis frowned slightly.
At present, the thing was quietly floating in his spiritual sea, but when Avis tried to contact it with his mental power, there was no feedback of its existence, just like an illusion.
He still didn't know what the "transcendence of essence" mentioned by the mysterious high elf actually meant.
Of course, this is not a big problem, he can also consult messages through some special beings.
"Pigeon, are you there?"
So, Anvis called the dove in his heart.
"Gugu, are you calling Gugu?"
The next moment, a white dove's head popped out from his chest, and its round red and black eyes looked at him.
"Yes, just now..."
Glancing at the Last Dragonborn and Summer Night Firefly who were unaware of the appearance of the pigeon, Avis quickly recounted in his mind what he had just encountered.
Although pigeons can also act as carrier pigeons, the two players are unable to see the existence of the pigeons.
"…So, the obelisk is currently in my spiritual sea. Do you know what it is used for?"
After the university explained the situation, Anvis asked himself.
"Gu? Gu can feel that there is a new existence in your body, like a star in the night sky, Gu."
A large, plump white dove flapped its wings and flew up, then landed on Avis' shoulder and turned its head.
"According to what you can understand, the star is a base point independent of time and space.
With it, you can use it as a medium and price to make the time of the linear world truly flow backwards. The length of the reverse flow is related to the effective range and the target of the effect. "
"I see. Thank you."
Avis nodded, and immediately understood the existence mode of this thing.
The time of the entire three-dimensional world is like a river suspended in the void, which will always move in the same direction. The existence living in it can only flow downstream at the same speed as time.
If you want to stop yourself in the flow of water, you will have to bear the pressure from the flow of time. The slower the speed, the greater the pressure of the flow of time. When infinity tends to stillness, the pressure of the flow of time will gradually approach infinity.
This is the second law of time and space in the magical world: time is irreversible.
If you want to go against the current, you first need to find a way to separate yourself from the flow of time.
At this time, a fulcrum is needed.
The other party wanted this thing, and most likely intended to use it as a medium to break through certain restrictions and summon the old gods to descend.
There was no way Avis would sit idly by and watch the enemy do all this. No matter from which angle, he needed to disrupt the enemy's plan.
"...I think the best way at the moment is to use the almost unlimited silver lightning here. According to the detector's response, the power of each of those lightnings is enough to rival the full force attack of an ordinary ninth-level warrior."
To the others present, the communication between Anvis and the pigeon only took a moment. Everyone was still discussing how to deal with the enemy's arrival.
Albins's opinion coincides with Avis's. If the power of the silver-white thunder can be utilized, it will be the best option.
"There is a special force field on this ore. If we can find a way to amplify it through a magic array and instruments, it should also be able to achieve the effect of attracting silver thunder.
As long as the enemy appears, we can immediately attract thunder to strike."
At this time, holding a piece of strange black stone that made up the stone house, Albins explained his plan to everyone.
"The enemy may arrive here at any time. How long will it take to complete the magic circle?"
Lan Nuo and others were somewhat pessimistic about this. Interfering with a force field that had never been seen before was a very complicated task, just like solving a math problem for which one had never learned any relevant knowledge, not to mention having to do it in a very short time.
"I will do my best, please help me."
With Avis's nod of affirmation, Albins immediately began to try to set up a magic circle halfway up the mountain. The others had no other good ideas, so they could only trust his ability and be on guard according to his instructions.
Watching Albins' actions from the side, Avis took out his pocket watch and took a look.
At this moment, more than half a magic hour had passed since he asked for help from the outside world during the live broadcast.
According to his expectations, the enemies outside would also have information channels. The news that he had received help from the players could not be hidden from anyone with ulterior motives.
Taking into account the time it takes for the news to spread, the enemies outside should also be informed of the news after about three magic hours.
