Fantasia of the Sky

Chapter 562 The Subterranean Surprise 4
The drill bit used to create the tunnel failed.

No, it's not just a malfunction, but a small explosion.Fortunately, there were only some splashes of earth and rocks, which did not hurt Huameng and Ivers.

What happened to the drill?Huanmeng's gaze moved to the drill bit, and at the same time stopped the operation of the drill bit.

Huanmeng saw that the first half of the drill disappeared inexplicably.

It's as if they didn't exist in the first place.The normal progress of the process came to a halt, so the explosion happened, right?

...Wait, even if it stopped suddenly, it wouldn't explode.

Is it the defense system of the surface people?Huanmeng thought of this immediately after seeing the abnormality.What kind of defense system is this?Can actually destroy the drill bit?
She unfolded the magic barrier to protect herself and Ivers.Seeing Huameng's expression, Ivers also entered the battle preparations-although he didn't know where the enemy was.

Huanmeng felt it, and there was no abnormal magic fluctuation at all nearby, which meant that there were no other creatures related to magic power at all—only Huanmeng and Ivers.

Could it be that there was a superhuman being on the surface who used brute force to forcefully destroy the drill bit?
This is so ridiculous, it's impossible.Unless the magic drill is made of magical substances such as magic or metal plates, it will be very difficult...

Wait, anti-magic substances such as metal plates.

Yes, it doesn't have to be a metal plate, it may be something of the same kind, and they are all used to deal with magic.

The role of the metal plate is to eliminate the attribute of magic power. According to Skell, the surface people may have researched a magic power neutralization device... Then, what will be ahead?

It may be one of those two, or it may be a defensive measure other than these two.

...Calm down, calm down first, don't move forward rashly, think carefully.

Are there any peculiarities to the defenses here?

Huanmeng has already seen a feature just now: explosion.

No, not just now, but now there is also an observable feature: the front half of the drill has disappeared.

...There should be some connection between the explosion and the disappearance of the drill bit.And it was the area in front of him that made this connection happen.With the light magic beside him, Huameng could see that there was nothing unusual there.

No, there doesn't have to be anything out of the ordinary.It may be that something like a force field exists there, and it cannot be taken lightly.

The magic that disappears, explodes.If these two are combined with the "force field" that may exist in front of you, the result is not difficult to guess.

...There is a force field that can make the magic power become chaotic and even explode.

Thinking of this, Huameng felt that it was necessary to verify it.

After Huanmeng moved the drill back a little, it recondensed into its original shape, and then tentatively moved forward in a non-activated state.

The drill bit didn't seem to explode this time, but its existence was gradually distorted, chaotic, and disappeared after turning into a cloud of fuzzy and disorderly magic power.

It seems to be milder than before... However, it still disappeared.

This is tricky.It seems that there is a force that twists the magic.Leaving aside the question of how to pass there, even if you want to dig a tunnel and move on, you can't do it—the magic drill can no longer be used.
