Beast Throne

Chapter 739 Barrier and Treasure

The sound of tapping footsteps echoed continuously in the not-so-spacious passage, and Nanna and her party still walked towards the top floor of the arena in a leisurely manner, as if they were exploring a castle that had been abandoned for a long time.

The part of the arena on the ground has a total of nine floors, and there is a huge warehouse underground.But different from ordinary buildings, the height of each floor of the arena is not the same. Basically, it becomes more spacious as it goes up. For example, the height from the fourth floor is almost twice that of the first and second floors.

There is no other meaning in doing this, it is just to meet the needs of the rich and powerful for their exclusive boxes.In order to show the power and financial resources of the family, the exclusive box they rented should not be too simple, it is usually as extravagant as possible, and a higher ceiling would allow them to have enough space to install a gorgeous and exquisite ceiling.

Nanna and her party arrived at the fourth floor smoothly. Except that the light was too dim, they didn't encounter any interception or traps, and there were not even any traces left by the battle.However, under the current situation, being too quiet itself meant that something was wrong. The dark passage was like the open mouth of an evil beast, waiting for the four of them to walk into its well-arranged trap by themselves.

Although Elder Bei was full of words, in fact his clay dolls still didn't show anything special.They just surrounded the crowd and closely followed Elder Bei's footsteps like children, basically there was no other movement.

Helu didn't understand this very much. He could do this kind of simple manipulation by himself. There was no need to go to such a great effort to create a substitute magic vine to enter, and it cost him a lot of mental power in vain.But after Wu Tong's careful observation, he still found something unusual about these clay dolls.

Elder Bei hadn't done anything since he released those black vines, he just followed Nanna and walked forward without saying a word.But those stand-in dolls are more spiritual than Elder Bei. These little guys seem to be very interested in the surrounding environment, and they always turn their heads to peek around from time to time.Especially when encountering a fork in the road, Wu Tong found that they always froze for a moment, as if they were thinking about which road to choose.

This kind of humanized action is obviously not what normal puppets should do. Rather than saying that they are stand-in puppets, it is more appropriate to regard them as ten dogs, and Elder Bei is obviously their owner.

It is not to say that puppets must be very rigid. For example, some magicians who prefer puppet spells will regard puppets as their clones. They can transfer their souls to puppets through secret methods, and control puppets to fight instead of themselves. It is equivalent to changing a pair of drive shells.

However, only soul mages with extremely strong spiritual power can do this kind of thing, Elder Bei should not have this ability.Furthermore, even if Elder Bei is also a soul mage, it is impossible for him to tear the soul into pieces and stuff them into these ten clay stone figures.

Then the reason for this situation can only be on those black vines, but it is hard to imagine that those vines have their own wisdom, and they are just split.But other than that, there is really no other reason.

Nanna is still very competent as a guardian knight. She seems to have not seen those clay dolls, and has been dutifully walking in the front, carefully guarding against possible attacks at any time.It's just that after going up three floors in a row, the big arena has been empty without even seeing a ghost, and Nanna has no room to play for the time being.

It would be a good thing if this situation can be maintained. Anyway, their goal is the control room of the magic defense array, and it is the most ideal situation to be able to reach the goal without interference.But after reaching the fourth floor, the situation suddenly changed dramatically.

As soon as they set foot on the fourth floor, there were waves of disgusting smells in the air, not only the peculiar sulfur smell of demons, but also the stench of rotting corpses, as well as the strong smell of blood.

"Is it an enchantment?" After asking about the stench, the great magician Helu frowned, and touched the long stick in his hand on the ground, sending out a small khaki shock wave.It can be clearly seen that the shock wave with little power seemed to hit an invisible air wall when it moved to the stairs, and dissipated after a slight shock.

Helu's actions don't need to explain that the other three people can understand, because there is no abnormality on the third floor, and such a strong smell can be smelled just after entering the fourth floor, this must be because of the enchantment. block.However, this barrier is very special, it can isolate energy waves, smells, and perhaps sounds, but the four of them didn't notice it when they penetrated the barrier.

Wu Tong was also very interested in making one or two small fireballs to try the effect of the enchantment, but considering his current situation, he finally gave up on this plan.However, since the enchantment has been discovered, according to experience, it is better to solve it as soon as possible. Maybe an inconspicuous enchantment can change the situation at a critical moment.

"Is there a way for the two masters to remove the barrier?" After thinking for a while, Wu Tong asked.It is better to leave this kind of technical work to professionals. The theoretical knowledge of the great magician must be stronger than that of him and Nanna.

Helu subconsciously glanced at Elder Bei. Seeing that the latter didn't respond, he had no choice but to cough twice and stand up. Under Wu Tong's expectant eyes, he said slowly, "I don't know what to call you, little friend?"

"Uh, just call me Suzaku." Wu Tong then remembered that he hadn't introduced himself yet, and it was really not polite in front of his elders.

Nodding his head, Helu explained: "Suzaku, you probably don't know about it. There are two types of barriers, one with core and one without core. Judging from the current situation, what we encountered is a barrier with a core. , if you don’t find its core, you can’t solve it.”

Although he looks rough and rough, and although he is not smart enough, Helu is also a very kind person with a good heart, otherwise he would not have easily fallen into the language trap of Filin.Seeing that Wu Tong knew little about enchantment, Helu explained it in detail.

A barrier without a core is a means of magical defense, which is equivalent to using magic elements to create an invisible magic wall to block attacks from the outside world. If it is more powerful, it can even prevent enemies from entering the barrier.The most representative coreless barriers are all kinds of magic defense shields. Although they have control rooms, they can be regarded as coreless barriers, because they can be completely broken by brute force from the outside world.

And the enchantment with the core, as the name suggests, must first have the enchantment core.The core of the enchantment can be a living body or a magic item, and the enchantment depends on the core of the enchantment to exist.Theoretically speaking, if the core of the enchantment is not found, the enchantment will not be destroyed.Of course, if the core energy of the enchantment is exhausted, the enchantment will automatically be released automatically.

From this point of view, an enchantment with a core can also be regarded as a kind of domain.Barriers with energy cores are usually not used as magic shields. They are more like radars or jammers. Depending on the effect of the barrier, people entering the barrier will be affected differently.For example, if you want to rely on this kind of enchantment to deal with Helu, it is best to set up an enchantment that restricts the elements of the earth element, and Helu's performance will naturally be affected.

However, the core of the enchantment must be found, and the inability to remove it with brute force is not the most troublesome part of this enchantment. The most troublesome thing is that this enchantment can be moved.As long as you carry the enchantment core, it is equivalent to carrying a domain with you.When encountering an enchantment that cannot be moved, the worst case is not to go in. As long as you don't enter the range of the enchantment, no matter how powerful the enchantment is, it will be useless.But when encountering this kind of movable enchantment, it is helpless.

Of course, the technical content of this kind of enchantment is very high. Generally, no magician would make himself the core of the enchantment, and that would be too much of a burden on himself.But if you want to use magic props, the prerequisite is that you have a powerful enough treasure to use. Ordinary magic props can't support huge energy consumption.

Those treasures that can be used as the core of the enchantment generally have another name-artifact.Now that you have an artifact, you can just use it to attack your opponent. Few people would be so bored as to use an artifact to create a barrier, which would not be able to exert the strongest effect of the artifact.

"So Suzaku, you should understand." Master Helu patiently gave Wu Tong a theoretical lesson, of course, doing so also meant to defend himself.From Helu's point of view, if you don't explain clearly and just say that you can't do anything, the two juniors, Wu Tong and Nan Na, will probably think that they are not good enough.

Having lost face twice in a row, even if Master Helu couldn't save face, at least he couldn't allow him to further lower his image.Especially after discovering that Wu Tong was a magic novice, Master Helu felt that he had to explain.

"Oh, that's right!" Wu Tong nodded. Master Helu said it so clearly that he couldn't understand it.But compared to the enchantment, Wu Tong cared more about another thing Helu said.Since this is an enchantment with a core, what exactly is its core?According to Helu, if it wasn't a divine weapon, it was at least a treasure.

Treasure hunting is a common hobby of all intelligent life.
