After hearing what Irelia said, Ahaya could only sigh and tell the truth.
"The trouble is not the passing elemental colossus, but the violent tide of beasts following the colossus.
If the barrier is not repaired in time, the beast tide behind the Blue Demonic Pattern Statue may flood into the Vayar Valley. The defense force here is insufficient, and a heavy price will inevitably be paid. However, if it can be repaired in time, it will not happen.
Questions like this...
It's useless to tell you dancer apprentices this. It just makes you more worried, so I didn't say it.
Irelia, after you know the truth, you must not tell it to others, so as not to cause unnecessary trouble, just go back to the courtyard and wait."
Irelia nodded with a worried look on her face and returned to her room.
As Master Ahaya said, even if she knew the truth of the matter, she would not be of much use. She was just a performer of Zanjia Silk Dance and could not play any role on the battlefield. All she could do was serve the soldiers after the war.
Dance and sing to relieve stress.
Glancing worriedly at the gloomy sky, Irelia lay on the bed with her back facing the sky, her hands clasped together in hope.
"I hope everything goes well and everyone is safe."
"It's over! The maze stone left by Karma at the entrance of the valley was completely shattered due to the elemental resonance produced by the blue magic pattern statue!"
At the entrance of the Vayar Valley, a middle-aged formation mage responsible for repairing the maze stone held up a half-cracked piece of lapis lazuli with both hands, his expression extremely ugly.
Hearing this, Rael, the militia captain of the Wayar Valley, ran to the formation master and leaned over to take a look. Sure enough, the formation stone had been cracked in half and could no longer play its original role.
The formations in Ionia are different from those in Valoran.
The formations in Valoran are implemented by mages by inscribing formations on corresponding magic items. To maintain the continuous operation of the formations, mages must continuously inject magic energy or place a magic energy storage device in the center of the formation disk.
Any defect in any part will affect the operation of the entire array.
Ionia's formation relies on various formation stones made by elemental masters.
Just like this piece of lapis lazuli, Kalma left the imprint of earth element in the lapis lazuli at the beginning of production. As long as the finished maze stone is placed in a specific position, the maze stone will spontaneously emerge from the air.
It absorbs free elemental energy to complete the energy supply. It does not require the presence of the array master or to provide additional energy for the array. Each array stone operates independently and produces maximum effectiveness through the connection of elements.
Twelve maze stones together form the mountain walls and camouflage trees that seal the entrance to the Vayar Valley, completely hiding the valley used for refuge. Loss of a maze stone will not affect the operation of the maze, but will only cause localized
question.
"how so?"
Now that he could hear the roar of beasts coming from outside the valley, Rael gritted his teeth and asked.
“Is it really beyond repair??”
The formation mage shook his head with an ugly expression.
"How is it possible? I can only mend small cracks. If it's cracked like this, I can't do anything. Unless a blessing master helps me to bridge the crack first and possibly repair it, but you also know, how can we have any blessing master here?
"
"What properties does this maze stone have?"
"The earth element attribute is probably a part of the wall of Fenggu Mountain."
Rael pulled out the sword from his waist with a clang.
"I'll organize manpower to check the breach, and you can think of other ways to see if the problem can be solved."
To actually reach the valley entrance, you need to pass through a low pass, which is separated by a nail-covered wooden gate covered with iron sheets. After the thick wooden gate is the range of influence of the maze.
Leading the slightly frightened militiamen in the valley to the pass, Rael raised his eyes and looked outside the pass.
If the maze was in effect normally, the way out of the valley should be blocked by a large rock wall that was no different from a normal mountain rock. At this time, it seemed that a four-square-meter stone wall disappeared out of thin air, and the rocks near the gap also changed.
It's not very stable.
The most unfortunate thing is that the gap is not at the top, but just below the ground, which means that things outside the valley can reach the pass unimpeded.
Rael's expression was uncertain. Just when he was thinking about how to repair the gap, dense and heavy footsteps came from outside the mountain wall.
The militiamen on the pass immediately became excited and looked at the mountain wall a hundred meters away with their bows and arrows in hand.
I saw a calf-sized stone beetle with black air lingering around its body slowly walking out of the gap, pacing back and forth tremblingly, as if looking for something, or simply restless, heading towards the pass.
Slowly approaching.
These elemental stone creatures that live in Longji Mountain have a stone body that is difficult to penetrate with swords. The collision of the two elemental stones on their heads will cause great damage to the wooden structure. The first time you encounter such a thing, it is considered a draw.
Sign.
Looking at the stone beetles below the pass, the militiamen on the gatehouse looked down at the hazel wood hunting bows and iron-tipped arrows in their hands, feeling a little at a loss.
The weapon in his hand may not be as ridiculous to the stone beetle as a child's toy.
"Captain Lehr, do you want to take action?"
One of the militiamen asked Leer in a low voice, and Leer shook his head.
"Wait a minute, stone beetles are very gentle in nature. If we don't offend each other, we may not cause them to attack..."
While talking, two more stone beetles passed through the stone wall. Apparently, this incomplete mountain wall attracted many stone beetles who like to explore caves. The militiamen on the pass secretly observed the three stone beetles, not daring to take a breath.
I hope the stone beetle will stay safe and find a place to lie down on its own.
But the more he was afraid of something, the more it came. After a deafening roar, an elemental tiger with red fur rushed out of the mountain wall. The elemental tiger raised its head and glanced at the people on the pass. A ball of hot fire suddenly shot out from the tiger's mouth, directly
Burning an unresponsive militiaman into human charcoal.
Screams echoed in front of the empty pass. Being disturbed by the elemental tiger, the three stone beetles stretched their stone bodies as if they were stressed to make their bodies more aggressive. Two stone beetles buried their heads and slammed into the elemental tiger. The third stone beetle
The beetle rushed towards the pass gate.
Militia captain Lehr no longer hesitated and immediately gave the order.
"Attack the stone beetle! Don't let it come close!"
A group of militiamen immediately shot arrows. The moment the arrows came out of the bow, they were blessed by the curse mage who had already prepared them, giving them even more powerful elemental destructive power.
The arrow that could not penetrate the stone body of the stone beetle successfully penetrated the stone beetle's body, but unfortunately it did not kill it.
The injured stone beetle became more and more violent, and crashed into the thousand-pound gate like a wild bull regardless of life and death. There was only a "boom" sound as sawdust flew, and the stone beetle's two elemental stone horns directly penetrated the iron sheet and embedded in the wooden gate.
middle.
The shock came from beneath their feet, making the faces of all the militiamen turn pale.
What's even more desperate is that the other two stone beetles that killed the elemental tiger also turned around and came to kill them, looking like they had completely lost their minds.
