Faced with this desperate situation, Xia Yunlong panicked. Regardless of his own exposure, he summoned the contracted monster [Tiamat] and tried to use the huge monster's body to blow up the corridor.
But it still didn't work.
The moment Tiamat was summoned, the walls of the corridors began to extend infinitely in all directions, and the ceiling became extremely high. Even with Tiamat's body over 300 meters long, she couldn't touch the edge...
It is no exaggeration to say that this is the most desperate situation Xia Yunlong has encountered since joining the alliance.
With the Gray Mist Coin unable to be activated, he had lost almost all means of escape.
Including the space-type pet that he used as his secret trump card...
Thinking of this, Xia Yunlong quickly stood up from the ground and bowed respectfully to Master Gu Yi.
"Junior Xia Yunlong, hello to the Supreme Mage!"
"Please take a seat, Mr. Xia."
Gu Yi raised his hand slightly, with a kind smile on his face whose gender was difficult to tell.
But in Xia Yunlong's eyes, this kind smile possesses a powerful deterrent power comparable to that of his own unparalleled ancestor.
Looking at the expression of respect and fear on Xia Yunlong's face, Gu Yi raised the corner of his mouth slightly, picked up the teacup again and took a sip.
Including the time with the Time Gem, she has been studying dimensional magic for thousands of years and has dealt with countless dimensional demons. Although she was a little weak when facing Lin Zhongtian, she was more than enough to subdue these young boys.
Putting down the teacup, Ancient One said softly: "No fighting is allowed in Kamar-Taj and the three holy temples. This is the agreement between Lord Lin and me. In addition, each of your teams has the qualification to stay in Kamar-Taj for 24 hours. Once the time is up, you must leave..."
"Do you understand?"
Xia Yunlong, Deng Yougang and four others nodded obediently.
Gu Yi nodded, stood up and said: "Very good, I have informed you of the specific rules as promised. After this mission, you are welcome to come to Kamar-Taj at any time to exchange knowledge... I wish you success!"
As he spoke, Gu Yi smiled slightly and took a step forward.
Without any extra movement on her part, golden sparks automatically burst out from the air in front of her, and then formed a circular spark portal, allowing Ancient One to step out of it.
"laugh!"
The sparks dissipated, and only the Alliance members were left in the room looking at each other.
Deng Yougang glanced at Xia Yunlong's relieved look and couldn't help but ask in a voice transmission: "Hey, Old Xia, what did the Supreme Mage do to you to make you look like this?"
“…”
Upon hearing this, Xia Yunlong turned pale and shook his head, indicating that he didn't want to talk.
Deng Yougang's mouth twitched, and he thought of something. He sympathetically said, "You probably don't know, Boss Lin actually said that the Supreme Mage is a rule-based expert. Her true strength cannot be measured by the energy output level alone. With the current partial state of the alliance members, if it weren't for Boss Lin's protection, they probably wouldn't be a match for the Supreme Mage."
"…I know it now."
Xia Yunlong showed an expression of emotion on his face.
At the same time, Ander, Fana and Legolas were communicating secretly on the opposite side.
"The Supreme Mage said that she and Boss Lin have agreed to classify Kamar-Taj and the three holy temples as safe zones, and that alliance members can only stay in the safe zone for 24 hours."
"Then I infer that the time to hold the quest item must be longer than twenty-four hours!"
"Plus, both Xu Kong and Boss Lin have obsessive-compulsive disorder to some extent, so this time is likely to be a more comfortable number such as thirty-six hours, forty-eight hours, or seventy-two hours."
"According to the worst-case scenario, if the time limit is seventy-two hours, we have already held the Mind Scepter for five hours, plus the twenty-four hours in the safe zone, which means twenty-nine hours. We still need to hold on to it for another forty-three hours..."
At this point, Fana showed a worried look on her face: "The mission is difficult!"
Ander smiled and said, "Don't be so pessimistic. Maybe the mission time limit is only thirty-six hours. In that case, we only have seven hours left. As long as we hold on a little longer, we can get the mission reward."
"Ander is right."
Legolas nodded in agreement, then said thoughtfully, "I think we should use these 24 hours to do some preparations that can delay time."
"Like what?"
"For example, Ender, you can reshape the appearance of the undead army and change it into our appearance to confuse their sight."
“It’s not that simple.”
Ander shook his head and said, "After all, the corpse is still a corpse. The death aura on the body is too strong. Not to mention those seniors, even we can easily distinguish the disguised corpse from the crowd... No, it's unreliable. Let's try another method."
"How about forging a Cosmic Cube?"
Fana suddenly said, "Due to the limitations of the void, the Cosmic Cube cannot be stored in the space objects produced by the Alliance, but the Traceless Extension Spell of our world is not restricted. We can forge the Cosmic Cube and use the Traceless Extension Spell to mass-produce small space objects. Then, we can hand over all the space objects containing real and fake objects to Ander's Undead Army and let them act separately to confuse their sight."
“…”
Ender and Legolas looked at each other and their eyes lit up when they heard this.
"This plan sounds feasible. However, the real Cosmic Cube will emit gamma rays and energy fluctuations. How are you going to solve this problem?"
“I can’t think of it for now…”
Fana shook her head, and then said calmly: "But this is Kamar-Taj after all, with countless books. We can go to the library of Kamar-Taj to find a solution. If that doesn't work, we can also ask the Supreme Sorcerer. Anyway, the rules don't say that we can't seek help from NPCs. The Supreme Sorcerer has always been a good teacher, and maybe he can help us solve this problem..."
“That makes sense!”
Ender and Legolas nodded.
The latter stood up and said, "What are you waiting for? Let's go to the library first!"
Ander and Fana looked at each other, then quickly stood up and left with Legolas.
At the same time, Deng Yougang and Xia Yunlong were still chatting via voice transmission, completely unaware that the three people opposite them had already discussed several feasible plans during the time they were chatting.
Seeing the three people get up and leave, Deng Yougang was still confused.
"Hey, where are you going?"
"The Library of Kamar-Taj..."
Without even turning his head, Ander said, "I am a magician. This Kamar-Taj has thousands of years of books and countless magic scriptures. Anyway, we can't fight for the next 24 hours. Wouldn't it be a pity if I don't go and take a look?"
“…”
As soon as these words were spoken, Deng Yougang and Xia Yunlong immediately understood and no longer had any doubts.
It has to be said that the impact of the power system on a person's thinking pattern is indeed very serious.
Deng Yougang used to be considered an intelligent person, but since he became stronger, he rarely uses his brain to solve problems. It's not because his IQ has decreased, but his thinking pattern has become more and more like that of a warrior.
Ander and Fana are magicians. They like to study magic and therefore prefer to use their brains during missions.
Of course, nothing is absolute, and a reckless man can occasionally let his IQ regain the upper hand.
After the three left, Deng Yougang and Xia Yunlong suddenly realized that they would only waste the team's stay in the safe zone, so they quickly left Kamar-Taj, and then took out the Void Jade Card to inform their teammates of the information about the safe zone.
…
…
High above the Rivers Hotel, Daenerys and Chen Feng both received the intelligence.
However, due to the fierce battle, the two did not check it immediately.
Finally, after a fierce battle, the three immortal cultivators still failed to keep the Mind Scepter, and it was snatched away by Chen Feng, who had the most cunning movements.
Seeing this scene, Daenerys' eyes turned cold, and she waved her hand to release a violent tornado of flames, which spiraled towards Chen Feng.
Chen Feng quickly transformed his body into an adamantium body and withstood the flaming tornado. He then absorbed the kinetic energy with his vibranium body, releasing a strong shock wave that instantly destroyed all the black smoke and ghost claws that moved behind him.
"boom!"
The violent shock wave, wrapped in flames, swept in all directions in a ring shape.
Chen Feng seized the opportunity, his figure disappeared in an instant, and flew towards the direction of the New York Temple.
"Where are you running to!"
Daenerys and Bai Youyou chased after him without hesitation.
Ye Chen, Nie Changchuan and Zhou Tianyi landed on the roof of the hotel in a somewhat embarrassed manner and breathed a long sigh of relief.
"These two women are too cruel..."
“Who says it’s not?”
Nie Changchuan showed emotion on his face, and then looked at Zhou Tianyi and said, "Brother Zhou, how many Thousand Miles Moving Talismans do you have?"
Zhou Tianyi smiled bitterly and said, "There are only three in total. I used one before, so there are two left."
"There are still two?" Ye Chen asked in surprise, "Then why didn't you use them just now?"
"Because it's not worth it." Zhou Tianyi shook his head. "If the hidden rule is really to hold the quest item for a period of time, then even if we use the Thousand Miles Moving Talisman to escape, it will be meaningless."
"After all, a distance of a thousand miles won't delay the alliance members for long. Instead, it will make us the target of public criticism. Just like what happened just now, instead of using the few thousand-mile teleportation talismans to make them feel threatened, it's better to stay and use them as a trump card."
"Anyway, let's adjust our breathing first. Once we are back to our peak form, we can go to the New York Temple to join in the fun..."
Hearing Zhou Tianyi's words, Ye Chen and Nie Changchuan nodded, and the three of them sat down cross-legged.
On the other side, Chen Feng was flying very fast in invisible state, like a whistling air current, instantly crossing the sky and landing in front of the gate of the New York Temple with a bang.
The earth was shaking, and the pedestrians on the street became unsteady in their steps, looking in the direction of the shaking in astonishment.
A silver metal man appeared from the air, holding a gorgeous scepter in his hand. He turned his head to look at two streams of light, one red and one black, shooting towards him from the sky.
"stop!"
Chen Feng grabbed the scepter with his left hand wearing the ring, stretched out his right hand, made a parking gesture, and shouted:
"This is a safe zone. Boss Lin said that no fighting is allowed in the safe zone!"
