Chapter 379 378. For the Boss!
A ball of illumination magic rose into the sky, and the orange-yellow light dispelled the darkness.
The space was silent, as if there were no living things.
Before entering, Ilos took the initiative to remove the insight from his eyes.
The black blocks in this abyssal space are highly condensed concrete information. Directly observing them with insight will produce a mental shock similar to touching them.
He suffered a great loss when he accidentally broke in for the first time, but it was also a blessing in disguise as he got a glimpse of clues about the "Ark Project".
Although he couldn't use clairvoyance, Ilos had another method. He crushed a crystal, and with himself as the center, the surrounding magic field was instantly and violently disturbed.
Although the disorder lasts only a moment, any magical traps or concealment techniques will be revealed in this brief fluctuation.
However... nothing was found.
Immediately afterwards, a ring of fire spread out from under Ilos's feet and extended to ten meters away.
Ilos took this moving ring of fire and slowly moved forward, sensing the direction of his mark.
He didn't stop until he reached the foot of the huge trunk of the sacred tree.
He could sense that the mark was nearby, but it was blurry and difficult to pinpoint.
"Using the information cube to interfere with perception..." he muttered to himself.
But he did not rush to find the artifact, but looked around cautiously again.
Although he did not find any trace of the cunning enemy, Ilos saw the "greeting gift" left by the other party.
On the gnarled trunk of the godstree, two elves lay unconscious, wedged between the cracks in the bark.
They were all people Ilos knew, including his disciple Seldan who was left to guard the entrance, and Pelagle, a senior member of the Ark Organization who had disappeared before.
Both of them were covered in bruises, as if they had been severely tortured. Although they were seriously injured and on the verge of death, they were still hanging on.
The other party did not kill them directly or take them hostage, but displayed them in front of him, obviously wanting to intimidate him.
Or maybe he planned to fight and then distract him to protect the other two after the battle started?
If that were the case, the other party's plan would fail.
He had already made up his mind about what could be sacrificed and what must be obtained.
While remaining vigilant, Ilos put the two men down.
The awakening spell worked on the two of them. Seldan groaned in pain twice, but still kept his eyes closed, as if he was having a nightmare. Only Pelagor woke up slowly.
"I...this is..." Pelagle looked around blankly, as if he didn't understand the situation.
"Pelager, who caught you?" Ilos directly asked the question he wanted to know most, which was also the purpose of him putting the two people down.
"Chief?! Everything... everything is Salian's conspiracy! He planned everything!" Pelager suddenly shouted.
"Sallian?"
The moment Ilos was lost in thought in surprise, Pelagor had already rushed forward and stabbed him with the dagger soaked in poison!
However, several vines emerged from Ilos's robe and blocked all of Pelagor's movements.
Iros didn't even glance at Pelager, but scanned the surrounding darkness: "Only let a Diamond-level person sneak attack me?"
"Hahahaha! Only?"
The next moment, a huge energy wave suddenly surged out of Pellagel's body.
"For the boss!"
"How is this possible?!"
Bang——!
A huge explosion far beyond the norm enveloped the three of them.
At the center of the explosion, a translucent shield covered Ilos, but it was still a little too late. Half of his body was torn and his robe was torn.
As for Pelagle and Seldan, it was even less likely that they could survive such an explosion.
It wasn't that Ilos was careless, but he couldn't imagine that an elf could actually self-destruct like this?!
Magic can indeed achieve such an effect, but it is impossible for him not to sense the fluctuations of magic power in the preparation stage, and he has enough ability to deal with it.
And the self-destruction that can be activated so quickly must be an innate skill!
In other words... Pellagor awakened and self-destructed?
What an absurd conclusion!
And he used a diamond-level elf without any hesitation?!
Ilos couldn't figure out what was happening in front of him for a moment, but there was no time for him to think!
At the same moment the explosion ended, a large number of Puji rushed out of the information block and attacked him.
Countless mushroom cannons hit his shield, creating ripples.
It turns out it’s hidden in the information block!
The previous doubts were resolved, but new doubts arose.
The information block does have no entity, but it’s okay for inanimate objects like artifacts, but how could it be a place where living things could be hidden?
No matter whether it is a magical pet or a puppet, once it enters, either its head will explode or it will be interfered with and lose contact!
Ilos couldn't understand how the other party did it?
Besides, even if it's a magical pet...isn't this too much?
The space that was empty before is now full of poof!
The sound of footsteps filled his ears, making Ilos feel extremely annoyed.
The vines swept past, but the Pujis exploded before being touched.
After a round of sweeping, even the toughest vines will become riddled with holes and become useless.
The Pujis' mushroom cannons never stopped firing. Although they couldn't break his shield, they were consuming his magic power all the time.
Ilos immediately realized the opponent's intention to consume him, so naturally he could not fulfill his opponent's wish!
He reinforced his defenses, then stood still and prepared to cast a large-scale magic.
The Pujis naturally didn't show any courtesy and took the opportunity to rush forward.
However, whether it was self-destruction, mushroom cannon or blade whip, none of them could break through the defense of Ilos' vines and shield.
But... standing still?
You look down on mushrooms too much!
A group of Puji came out carrying an extra-long resonance cannon.
Unfortunately, even though the battlefield was already in such chaos, the huge magical fluctuations gathered by the resonance cannon still attracted Ilos's attention.
The moment he sensed the danger, Ilos endured the nausea of the magic power flowing back, stopped the spell he was preparing, and dodged the bombardment.
The huge magic explosion confirmed that his choice was correct. His shield might not be able to completely block such a powerful magic cannon.
He threw a huge fireball, trying to destroy the strange combined monster, but it was blocked by the [Magic Shield] cast by many Pujis.
It's not that magic can't be used to break the shield, but then Ilos will be at a disadvantage in terms of magic power.
Finally, he rushed to a certain distance and strangled the combined monster with vines, then began to prepare the previous spell again.
And when the second resonance cannon appeared, forcing him to stop casting the spell again, Ilos wanted to curse!
