Time passes by every second.

The magical trio's stay in the Kamar-Taj safe zone is also becoming less and less.

The atmosphere within the team gradually became tense, because they knew that the teams capable of snatching the Cosmic Cube were lurking outside the safe zone.

For example, Daenerys asked Deng Yougang to stay outside the Kamar-Taj safe zone, while she stayed at the door of the New York Temple. At the same time, she placed a fire clone outside the two major temples in London and Hong Kong.

The power of these fire clones is not very strong, but they contain her divine consciousness.

No matter where the magic trio leaves, Daenerys can know it in real time with her divine sense, and then she and Deng Yougang will be teleported to the corresponding location through the four interconnected safe zones.

The other teams basically have similar arrangements.

They all thought of dividing their forces into several routes, waiting for the opportunity, and then quickly reuniting through the portals of Kamar-Taj and the three major temples.

Because of this, the magic trio knew very well that they must not stay in the safe zone until the last second, and must find a way to leave Kamar-Taj before the time limit, so that they would have a chance to escape the encirclement of competitors.

Fortunately, in addition to the bad news, there is also good news.

That is, Master Ancient One really knows how to conceal the energy fluctuations of the Infinity Stones.

After all, the Eye of Agamotto containing the Time Stone on her chest is the best proof.

Of course, with Ander and Fana's magical attainments, it was simply a fantasy for them to create an Eye of Agamotto within just twenty-four hours.

After all, even without the Time Stone, the Eye of Agamotto itself is an incredible artifact.

So they just need to understand the principle and then imitate a crude container.

Kamar-Taj has always been open to knowledge. Therefore, after hearing Ander and Fana's sincere request, Master Ancient One recommended a magic book on refining to them without hesitation.

The two men studied in Kamar-Taj's library for three hours, during which time they continued to experiment with various rare metals they carried with them.

Finally, after wasting about six hundred Gray Mist Coins worth of precious metals, they used Marvel's native vibranium and some magic spells they had just learned from books to successfully create a cubic container that could conceal energy fluctuations.

Of course, the reason why they were able to achieve their goal in such a short time was mainly due to the characteristics of vibranium.

Perhaps because it's Marvel's native metal, Vibranium excels at absorbing the energy fluctuations of the Infinity Gems.

All Ender and Fana had to do was engrave magic spells on the vibranium and make some minor modifications in certain links to easily create a container that could conceal the energy fluctuations of the Cosmic Cube.

After solving the problem of hiding the genuine product, the next step is to mass-produce counterfeits.

Ander was enough to complete this step alone, so Fana was able to find some time to find Chen Feng who was also resting in the safe zone.

"Let's form an alliance!"

"……Um?"

Chen Feng raised his eyebrows and looked at Fana calmly.

Fana said softly, "Your team is one of the strongest teams in this mission. If you continue to fight for the Cosmic Cube while getting the Mind Scepter, you will probably become the target of public criticism and be besieged by all teams."

Chen Feng's expression remained unchanged: "So?"

Fana said seriously: "So I suggest that we form an alliance here, help each other, and each of us only complete one main task."

Chen Feng thought about it, shook his head and said, "Excuse me, your previous strategy was indeed very good, but now the information gap has been eliminated, and you no longer have room for maneuver. In the next battle, the strength of the team is the most important."

"Your team is at the bottom of the list. I doubt whether you can really help us."

"What's more, if you complete the task first, we will be the only team holding the Infinity Stones. At that time, we will still become the target of public criticism and besieged by all the remaining teams."

"In that case, why don't I keep you here to share the firepower for us?"

Fana smiled faintly: "Brother Chen, what you said does make sense, but...what if we can let the two teams complete the task together?"

"Finish it together?"

Chen Feng became interested and acted as if he was listening attentively.

Fana chuckled and said, "Our team only held the Space Stone for a few hours longer than you did. This amount of time can be easily wiped out by the 24 hours in the safe zone."

"If our two teams form an alliance, we can leave the safe zone early and attract attention for you outside to delay time."

"And you can send one person to stay in the safe zone. While we are attracting fire, he can quietly slip away with the Mind Scepter, thus saving time in the safe zone."

"Of course, it's best not to sneak too far."

"If we are discovered, we can quickly return to the safe zone and find another opportunity to delay."

Chen Feng looked at Fana with interest and nodded, "This idea is very sincere."

"However, Brother Fang has been entangled by Li Yun and Danas. There are only Xia Yunlong and I left in our team. If we assign one more person, I'm afraid it will be difficult for us to help, let alone help you fight against the remaining three teams."

Fana smiled and said, "It doesn't matter, as long as Brother Xia can come to help!"

Chen Feng looked at her deeply, thought for a moment, and took out the Void Jade Card.

Not long after, Xia Yunlong appeared in front of the two of them.

As soon as he appeared, he said excitedly: "Brother Chen, I think it is very feasible. Fana is right. Our two teams that have obtained the Infinity Stones should indeed form an alliance. Anyway, I don't expect to monopolize all the rewards. Why not benefit each other and get these 30,000 Gray Mist Coins first!"

“…”

Chen Feng thought for a while, looked up at Fana and said softly: "Okay, I can promise you, but after the alliance, I hope we can make information public and trust each other. I will let Xia Yunlong fully cooperate with you, and you must also tell us your real plan."

He had already seen that Fana had hidden some key information.

These key information are the real reason why she is confident that she can delay time and complete the task.

Hearing Chen Feng's words, Fana nodded: "It's a deal!"

Afterwards, the two sides found Master Ancient One and formally formed an alliance under her witness.

Out of trust in his allied companions, after the alliance was formed, Ander decisively took out the silver cube.

"……What's this?"

Xia Yunlong asked curiously.

Ender smiled and said, "This is the Cosmic Cube."

...The Cosmic Cube?

Chen Feng and Xia Yunlong looked skeptical; they did not feel any energy fluctuations from the silver cube in front of them.

Fana showed a faint smile on her face, raised her finger and gently pressed it on the silver cube.

In an instant, the intricate patterns on the surface of the cube lit up with white light, and then cracked layer by layer, like a bud about to bloom, blooming along the patterns on the surface of the cube, revealing a cosmic cube emitting blue light inside.

A familiar energy fluctuation came, and Chen Feng and Xia Yunlong were immediately surprised.

"How is this thing made? Can you make one for us?"

"Of course, as long as you can provide the raw materials."

“What are the raw materials?”

"Vibranium from the Marvel world and a small amount of Mithril from Middle-earth..."

"no problem!"

Chen Feng agreed without hesitation.

Afterwards, the two teams gathered in the Kamar-Taj library and began to discuss the details of their next actions.

…

…

Late at night, a furtive figure walked out of the back door of the London Temple.

But before the sneaky figure left the alley behind the temple, an ice-blue light suddenly appeared.

“Puff——”

The sword's light pierced through the figure and pinned it to the wall of the alley.

A chilly white gas emanated from the ice-blue flying sword, almost instantly freezing the entire person into an ice sculpture.

"…Who is this?"

"Why are you so weak?"

"You didn't resist?"

A voice with a hint of panic and surprise was heard, and Zhou Tianyi's figure dropped from the sky and landed in front of the figure.

After pulling out the ice-blue flying sword, Zhou Tianyi carefully looked at the figure in the ice sculpture and found that the figure had a strange face and dead eyes. It seemed that he was not a living person but more like a zombie.

After a little thought, Zhou Tianyi immediately understood this person's identity.

"It's Ander's Inferi!"

In addition to being a wizard at Hogwarts, Ender is also a necromancer.

When Daenerys unified Westeros, she invited members of the Alliance to join the war.

Ander also participated in the war in Westeros, and took the opportunity to plunder the bodies of many enemy soldiers. The number of undead troops under his command was no less than 10,000, and each of them had physical fitness far beyond that of ordinary people.

Of course, even so, these Yin corpses are still vulnerable in front of Zhou Tianyi and others.

Zhou Tianyi estimated that the strength of this thing should not exceed that of a cultivator at the first level of Qi training. A seven or eight-year-old child in the Zhou family could probably defeat them without using any magic.

"So… why did he release the Inferi?"

Zhou Tianyi was surprised and puzzled. He waved his hand to shatter the ice in front of him, causing the corpse to fall to the ground.

At this moment, a small brown bag carried by the corpse caught Zhou Tianyi's attention.

He picked it up with a frown, opened it, and found that in the wallet-sized bag, there was a silver metal cube with intricate patterns engraved on the surface.

"…It's the Traceless Extension Spell!"

Zhou Tianyi reacted quickly.

As a member who once held the Scepter of Mind for several hours, Zhou Tianyi knew very well that the quest items of the main quest could not be stored in a completely enclosed independent space.

But things like the Traceless Extension Spell are not within the limits.

So, after seeing the silver cube, several guesses immediately popped up in Zhou Tianyi's mind.

"This guy...is he trying to get away with this?"

Zhou Tianyi frowned and took out the metal cube. He applied a little force with his five fingers and left five deep fingerprints on it.

"It's solid and can be moved. It's not the Tesseract, but just ordinary steel."

Zhou Tianyi shook his head and threw the cube in his hand aside.

At this moment, all the doors of the London Temple opened.

Countless densely packed figures swarmed out like ants, running rapidly in all directions.

Zhou Tianyi looked stunned, then quickly jumped up, frowned tightly in the air, and looked down at the running corpses under his feet.

He had discovered that all the Inferi that escaped from the temple were carrying a small brown bag!

...Is he really planning to do this?

Zhou Tianyi couldn't help but look surprised.

After all, the Traceless Extension Spell is just a magic that expands space. It does not have an independent storage space like space objects, so it cannot conceal the energy fluctuations of the Cosmic Cube.

In this case, what is the point of mass-producing counterfeits?

Besides, Ander and the others made all the storage bags look like small brown bags. This move was too deliberate, as if they wanted them to find it on purpose.

If it were Zhou Tianyi, he would definitely carve the Traceless Extension Spell on every pocket on the corpse.

In this way, the place where the counterfeits are stored in each corpse is different, making it more confusing.

Thinking of this, Zhou Tianyi showed a playful smile on his face. He casually swung out a large amount of sword light and perfunctorily killed the Yin corpse that was fleeing towards this side.

At the same time, a beam of fire fell from the sky, burning a large number of corpses on the street into ashes.

The brown satchels were also ignited by the flames, and the spell twisted in the flames, spitting out the metal cubes inside.

“…It’s fake again.”

Daenerys's flaming clone fell from the sky and landed next to Zhou Tianyi.

Zhou Tianyi captured the key information and asked in surprise: "Are there also Yin corpses running away from other temples?"

Daenerys glanced at him and did not answer. She just waved the flames casually, burning the Inferi on the street, while quietly waiting for Ander, Fana and Legolas to appear.

“This shouldn’t be the case…”

Zhou Tianyi frowned tightly.

Based on his understanding of Ander and Fana, these two people would definitely not do anything in vain.

It would take at least half a day for the two of them to use the traceless extension spell to make so many magic items. There was no reason for them to waste time in the safe zone just to distract everyone's attention...

Zhou Tianyi frowned and thought, then suddenly woke up, waved his hand and summoned seven ice-blue flying swords, and began to chase and kill the Yin corpses that had already escaped.

Daenerys looked at his back in surprise.

"……What are you doing?"

Zhou Tianyi did not answer, but just kept chasing the Yin corpses and checking for fakes among them.

It was this action that made him discover another piece of information, that is, not all the bags on the corpses were real, some were just ordinary bags used to confuse the vision.

Some of the corpses were carrying fake bags, but their pockets had been transformed into space storage bags just as he had expected.

After discovering this, Zhou Tianyi immediately understood that the other party might really be planning to secretly transport the Cosmic Cube out of the safe zone.

Although the first batch of corpses most likely would not carry the Cosmic Cube, Zhou Tianyi did not dare to gamble.

What if the other party has thought more than he has and turns the tables on him?

Looking at Zhou Tianyi strangling the Yin corpses, Daenerys knew that he must have understood something, so after a little hesitation, she spoke loudly.

"How about exchanging information in good faith in the name of the Boss?"

"……make a deal!"

Zhou Tianyi agreed decisively, and then explained loudly while strangling the Yin corpse.

"Think of the Eye of Agamotto!"

"Kama-Taj has the technology to conceal the Infinity Stones. They may have learned this technology from the Ancient One and disguised the Cosmic Cube to create countless fakes to confuse our sight!"

Daenerys woke up suddenly and her eyes instantly shifted to the fleeing Inferi.

If Zhou Tianyi's guess is correct, then among the countless Yin corpses in front of him, doesn't it mean that each of them is likely to be carrying the Cosmic Cube?
