Lords Trying to Survive: Strategizing from a Rundown Yard

Space chimera.

The last time I heard about a similar situation was in Gutian.

However, the space chimera in Gutian is obviously older than here, and its origin is more mysterious.

There was a real accident, while here there are obvious traces of human intervention.

After all, there are also particularities in the foreign land of chimera.

If the chimera is only a demiplane, then the style and strength will definitely not be as good as the chimera between two dimensional main worlds.

But no matter what, Marquis Ekmeledin is indeed qualified to be tough.

The current situation is still a bit tricky for Zong Shen.

The dual system of time and space is one of the few systems that is not affected by [Negative Magic Liquid].

The effect of [Negative Magic Liquid] is amazing, but it still has no direct effect on time and space.

Unless it can be allowed to contact the core of this magic circle or the forbidden door.

Because the rules are internal, it is understandable to avoid erosion.

But the materials used to arrange the magic circle will definitely be eroded by the magic liquid.

But there is no chance to contact the core at the moment.

The special nature of the chimeric space, coupled with the arrangement of the magic circle, allows the core area to perfectly avoid attacks.

Space transfer is only one aspect, and the chimeric space itself is not afraid of most physical attacks.

Seeing that Zong Shen did not speak, Marquis Ekmeledin's voice immediately eased.

"Your Excellency is knowledgeable and should understand what this means."

"The genius ancestor of the Clift family once made outstanding contributions to the kingdom."

"This is the magic circle laid by the ancestor."

He stopped talking here, leaving enough suspense.

Bringing up the name of the ancestor is just to increase the bargaining chips.

It can be seen that Marquis Ekmeledin still has not given up the hope of resolving this matter peacefully.

Of course, it may also mean that his backhand that needs to delay time to complete has huge hidden dangers. In the eyes of the marquis, even if he can use the backhand to expel or defeat Zong Shen, he will have to pay a huge price!

Only in this way can his current reaction be explained.

"These guys with the ancestor's shadow are really difficult to deal with."

Zong Shen understands that the probability of encountering similar situations in the future will only increase.

Endless Continent is so big, and its heritage is so profound.

In the successive eras, there are always amazing people who leave all kinds of back-ups.

Just like the arrangement left by the ancestors of the Clift family in front of us.

A careful comparison will reveal that the spatial chimera where Gutian is located is still very different from here.

First of all, the energy level. The chimera there comes from the dimensional world, not the demiplane or other secondary spatial bodies.

Secondly, strictly speaking, it should be considered as fusion and intersection, and the level is also higher than the simple chimera state.

So far, Zong Shen has understood that this magic circle is a multi-complex type.

The level is very high, and the design technique is also quite exquisite.

It incorporates multiple elemental powers.

In addition, the characteristics of the chimera space and the partial application of the space system rules are enough to make most attacks ineffective.

Zong Shen thought about it for a while, thinking about what props to use to solve the trouble here.

The space system wonders he has on hand should come in handy.

However, the use of space here is relatively advanced, and using space means to confront it head-on is not a wise choice, so let's change our thinking.

The only thing that can affect or restrain the space system is the power of the time system.

It is no secret that time and space are interdependent.

And the two will also have specific effects.

For example, when Zong Shen used the [Time Stop Orb] before, if it lasted for more than 1 minute.

The space will be torn where the time stop area intersects with the outside world.

There are many examples of space affecting time. The most obvious point is the time sequence problem in different spaces, which can be proved by the training ground with time sequence privileges in Zong Shen's territory.

There are many similar examples.

So Zong Shen is going to use time-related wonders to deal with this place.

Marquis Ekmeledin, who was hiding in the castle in the distance, was using vision enhancement to observe the changes in Zong Shen's expression. Seeing that he frowned and thought, he did not disturb him.

He just thought he was thinking about his proposal.

But he didn't expect that Zong Shen had no idea of ​​giving up at all.

He was not the kind of person who gave up easily.

What's more, the soldiers of both sides had already started fighting, and there were casualties on both sides.

But in comparison, the losses of Zong Shen's side were much smaller.

The battle ratio of the two sides could reach more than 1 to 6.

This was under the premise that both sides sent out elite soldiers to fight.

The giant city of Dagalisni lost about 60,000 to 70,000 elite soldiers, and Zong Shen also lost tens of thousands of fifth- and sixth-level soldiers, and one clone died in the battle.

The death of the clone made him lose 65 points of wisdom attribute.

In the past, it must have been painful for a long time, but it was nothing at the moment.

Zong Shen had tens of thousands of wisdom attributes, and it didn't matter if he made as many as he wanted.

After the attribute base was large, many ideas became arrogant.

If the battle continued, the casualties of both sides would definitely increase.

For Zong Shen, if he could deal with Marquis Ekmeledin as soon as possible, the losses of both sides would be reduced.

After he took down the giant city of Dagalisni, he would eventually have to incorporate the local garrison.

But this battle had to be fought.

He couldn't give the elite troops of the Giant City Garrison a chance to act.

This will inevitably lead to serious constraints.

The current situation of kings versus kings and soldiers versus soldiers is the best solution.

With his mind flowing, Zong Shen did not talk to Marquis Ekmeledin again.

He thought that there was no need for the two sides to talk.

The Marquis also understood Zong Shen's meaning, but he did not provoke him again.

At this moment, the Marquis wished that he could delay for a little longer.

Zong Shen and Gugat looked at each other silently.

The latter moved and came to a place more than a hundred meters in front of him to stand by.

It seemed that he was just standing normally, but in fact, he once again stimulated the protection effect of the ancient guards and took on the responsibility of the guards again.

It was not until this time that Zong Shen took out a mini and exquisite hourglass.

The hourglass was only ten centimeters long, and there was not much sand at both ends.

But the hourglass was shining with a charming luster.

After a quick look, a message subtitle with golden handwriting appeared next to the hourglass.

[Time Energy Hourglass (Special)]

[Quality: Special]

[Effect: Time Energy (After taking it out, 1 second will be stored in the hourglass every 10,000 seconds, the maximum time energy storage limit is 600 points, each point corresponds to 1 second)

Sand Stagnation (consumes time energy, causing the area within a radius of 50 kilometers to fall into a stagnant state, which lasts for up to 600 seconds. During this period, there will be a spatial split at the junction of the time-stopped area and the outside world)

Sand Backflow (consumes time energy at a ratio of 100:1 and converts it into backflow time)

Sand Downflow (consumes time energy at a ratio of 100:1 and converts it into downflow time, which can accelerate oneself or a small area)]

…

This hourglass has been in Zongshen's hands for a while.

He has recently placed it in the time sequence training field to store time.

The time sequence difference of 1 to 12 allows the hourglass to store more than 103 points of time energy for every day in the outside world.

It is about 6 days in the outside world, and the 600 points of time energy that the hourglass can hold are fully accumulated.

This [Time Energy Hourglass] has three active effects.

[Sand Stagnation] is time stopping, and it is relatively energy-saving. 600 points of time energy can be converted into 600 seconds of time stopping time.

The next two skills [Sand Reverse Flow] and [Sand Flow Downstream] are the big consumers of time energy.

The former can make time go backwards, and the latter can make time flow downstream at an accelerated speed.

100 points of time energy can only be converted into 1 second of power.

However, these two skills can be exchanged for seconds or even milliseconds.

Whether it is reverse flow or downstream flow, even if it is only a millisecond-level change, it has the power to completely change the situation.

It is just right to use the power of time sequence to deal with this.

Thinking of this, Zong Shen pulled the corner of his mouth and smiled from a distance.

This made the Marquis Ekmeledin, who had always stayed in the castle, feel a little uneasy.

He seemed to be standing by the window and staring, but in fact he was preparing a special blood ceremony.

There was a smaller magic circle behind him that enveloped him.

A large cut was made on the wrist of one of the Marquis's hands, and blood flowed out, falling on the floor and being absorbed by the magic circle.

In his other hand, Zhongze tightly grasped the token with the name of his ancestor engraved on it.

With himself and the token as the node, a wonderful connection is being established.

The obscure seal is also slowly being lifted.

While performing the mysterious ritual, he observed Zong Shen's movements.

The magic circle blessed his vision, allowing him to see the changes in the distant scene.

When Marquis Ekmeledin saw Zong Shen take out the small hourglass, he realized that something was wrong.

He immediately prepared to take more radical measures to counter it.

However, the ripples of time came in an instant.

The next moment, everything was silent.

The time stop brought absolute silence and stagnated the movement of matter.

The magic circle and various arrangements here are indeed mysterious, and the materials used are very precious.

It is fully equipped with the power of a demigod.

But under the shackles of the time wonder, it gradually slowed down.

Yes, it's just slowed down.

If you look closely, you can find that the speed of the magic circle has slowed down by tens of thousands of times.

Although it is not completely restricted, this sluggishness itself greatly reduces its power.

This is the mutual restriction of the two rules.

Zong Shen did not waste time. 600 seconds of time stop is not too much, but not too little.

Taking advantage of the fact that the magic circle is in an extremely slow state, it is the best opportunity to break the restriction of the core area!

Affected by the time stop, Gugat also stagnated in place.

But if you observe it a little, you can find that there are vague fluctuations around it.

This is a demigod-level strongman resisting the restriction.

Fortunately, the power of [Time Energy Hourglass (Special)] is far superior to [Time Stop Orb (Gold)].

For example, [Time Stop Orb], let alone restricting demigods, even if it is used to restrict legendary strongmen, it is difficult to work.

Without wasting time, Zong Shen grabbed the hourglass and flashed to Gugat's side.

Touching Gugat's body lightly with the hourglass lifted his restriction state.

Then, Zong Shen methodically took out the pottery jars containing [Negative Magic Liquid] one by one.

After clamping the opponent's magic circle, the most effective means of breaking it was still this thing.

Without further ado, Gugat understood.

He immediately flew to the place where the castle light column was with the pottery jar.

Zong Shen also soared into the air, took out the East China Sea drift bottle and came to the other side of the light column.

Along with the sound of the pottery jar breaking, the magic liquid beam also gushed out.

A violent magic annihilation reaction occurred, and the light column covering the entire castle shook.

The green trace spread rapidly, but the speed was much slower than when it eroded the light curtain.

[Negative Magic Liquid] is still very useful.

Even if the core area magic array here is of a higher level, it is difficult to escape the erosion of the magic liquid.

The only difference is the time of erosion and destruction.

Zong Shen didn't care about saving magic liquid at this time, and quickly poured a large amount of magic liquid around the magic light column.

"Zila la..."

The sound of pounding eardrums appeared, like watering the ground with aqua regia.

The strong sense of corrosion is enough to make anyone feel afraid.

This magic light column that covers the castle has no solidity value.

Theoretically, it is just the core node of the magic array.

Through the strategy module, Zong Shen can get a rough progress of destruction.

After a lot of tossing, the degree of destruction soon exceeded 80%, and the efficiency of magic liquid erosion suddenly slowed down at this time.

This may mean that the surface part has been destroyed.

The spread to the deeper level is not so fast.

Zong Shen asked Gugat to retreat to his side.

At this time, the time stop has just passed more than 170 seconds.

There is still plenty of time.

After thinking about the situation in front of him, he immediately took out the [Space Cutting Cube (Unknown)].

Let this special space-related artifact be the last straw that breaks the camel's back.

Picking up the Rubik's Cube, Zong Shen's mind moved and locked the light column in front as the target.

"Activate [Space Division]."

He subconsciously chanted in his heart.

The next second, the light column in front slowly twisted, and the crisp sound of breaking was endless.

It was like a window was broken.

The degree of destruction directly increased by more than ten percentage points.

The entire light column also became faint and blurred.

The castle hidden inside finally became clear.

[Space Division] is a skill of the Rubik's Cube.

It can forcibly separate space and destroy the continuity of space. Some of the space after separation can have spatial defense. The duration is three minutes, and each activation must be separated by more than 1 hour.

Using space wonders to deal with this place is equivalent to "fighting poison with poison".

The reason why Zong Shen did not use it before is because he understands that simple space destruction cannot play a decisive role.

The winner is still on [Negative Magic Liquid].

When the magic liquid is almost used up, let [Space Cutting Cube (Unknown)] to assist.

After confirming the latest progress of the destruction, Zong Shen waved his hand arrogantly.

"Gugat, bomb it!"

Hearing this, the shoulder of Gugat's armor bulged, and a high-tech shoulder cannon appeared.

One after another, the particle cannon bombarded the light column.

No damage floated, but each bombardment made the light column dimmer.

It was like a drawn pattern was slowly erased by an eraser.

Zong Shen squinted his eyes and looked at the time-stop countdown that appeared in his mind.
