Perhaps Paris was really tied up in the ritual and had no time to be distracted. The actions of Shado's team were extremely smooth. Just like the previous process of seizing authority, they encountered no resistance at all.
But smoothness does not mean that it took a short time, from when Paris mocked everyone in front of the Silver Spire, to when Metril was blocked, to when Chateau and others had no hope of escaping and gathered in a city garden.
The total time from the time when Messenger Ryan declared that Metril was in a state of emergency to when Shado teamed up with four high mages to attack the Silver Spire was only about ten minutes.
Now, the last part of the Silver Spire's permissions should be embodied as a magic item. To seize such permissions is tantamount to reconstructing the entire protective system of the Silver Spire.
Even if there is no resistance, it is very difficult to advance.
Soon it had been more than ten minutes, but he still failed to seize the final authority.
"Lord Chateau, why don't we try another method? If this continues, it may be too late." Master Tucson from Comanso was already emotionally unstable.
Immediately afterwards, O'Loughlin, who was also from Cormanso, also mentioned direct attack again, and in the spiritual network woven by Chateau, what was actually transmitted was far more than a relatively strong superficial consciousness.
A considerable part of the subconscious mind has also been shared, and Xia Duo will undoubtedly spy on their secrets, but this is inevitable. As long as the Lingsi network is used, there is such a risk.
Chateau had already interpreted the intention of leaving from the subconscious of these two guys. According to O'Loughlin's idea, he would directly attack. If it failed, he would leave Metril immediately.
The so-called attack is actually more like a little comfort before leaving.
In this case, Xia Duo could only persuade, "Hurry, believe me, we can definitely do it!"
His words were not only an advice to these elves, but also an encouragement to himself. At present, he had reconstructed most of the protection system through his existing authority. If he gave up now, the previous ten minutes would have been in vain.
This kind of progress cannot be saved. Even if you start over, it will still take at least another five or six minutes. But now every minute and every second is precious, and there is no room for waste.
After Xia Duo's repeated persuasion, Tucson and O'Loughlin were finally appeased. I don't know if it was affected by the episode just now, but Xia Duo obviously felt that the efficiency of the subsequent reconstruction was much lower than before.
Almost another eight minutes passed, and most of the reconstruction progress was completed. By this time, even in Tucson, O'Loughlin's subconscious was filled with determination.
After all, the cost of silence has been paid, and now we are just a little short of it, so we have to finish it no matter what.
But before Xia Duo could be happy, an extremely strong magic network vibration suddenly came from outside the Silver Spire. Then the previously peaceful Metril Mystery Lock suddenly changed, and its influence penetrated into the Silver Spire.
In other words, it could have affected Silver Spire, but it had not been activated before.
"Lord Chateau, do you want to give up?" It was Tucson again.
And he didn't just say that, he had even begun to withdraw from the collaborative casting system skillfully. Fortunately, he may be worried that Xia Duo would organize his departure, so he did not hastily interrupt the current reconstruction progress, but chose to hand over in an orderly manner.
Seeing Tucson do this, O'Loughlin, the Elf of Cormanso, naturally did not do what he wanted and also chose to withdraw from the coordinated spellcasting system.
"Are you two so impatient? It should be Doom and the others outside who destroyed the Metriel Mystery Lock node and caused a chain reaction. As long as Paris is dealt with, everything can be calmed down!"
"Lord Xia Duo, it's not that we don't believe you, it's that we shoulder the heavy responsibility of family inheritance and don't dare to take any risks. We were already impulsive just now, and now we must regain our senses."
After saying that, Tucson, who had handed over the reconstruction progress, stepped aside and began to cast teleportation, followed closely by O'Loughlin.
In this regard, Shado could only watch with cold eyes, and at the same time, he also comforted Kuito and Teddy in the spiritual network who had not yet decided to leave.
Originally, more than half of the reconstruction progress had been completed, but that was the amount of five casters. Now there are only three left. It is not a 1.6 times difference at all. In fact, Tucson and O'Loughlin are missing. The efficiency of this collaborative spellcasting system
Also give a big discount.
Under this situation, neither Kuito nor Tredi chose to leave, which was indeed beyond Shado's expectations. At the same time, the choice of these two Elfaran elves also won his respect.
Shado also knew something about the true thoughts of these two elves, but whether it was because he wanted to contrast with the Cormanthor elves, or because he was an ally of Elfaran and Netheril, this kind of real
Support is very rare.
Xia Duo silently swore in his heart that he would not let down the sacrifices of these two allies, and he would try his best to let them survive whenever possible.
…
Teleportation spells are not complicated, let alone for high-ranking mages. At this time, the magic network casting elements related to teleportation within the Silver Spire have not been completely banned.
Logically speaking, Tucson and O'Loughlin could teleport away, but what Sha Duo didn't expect was that Tucson successfully teleported but appeared in the same place, and the same happened to O'Loughlin.
"This is impossible!"
Tucson's face suddenly changed, and he screamed in disbelief. O'Loughlin's face was also very ugly at the moment, but his mood was slightly more stable than Tucson's.
He glanced at Xia Duo subconsciously, making sure that it was not Xia Duo's fault, but he still wanted to find an answer from Xia Duo, "Lord Xia Duo, do you know what is going on?"
"You couldn't leave?"
"No, Tucson and I teleported to completely different destinations, but the results were exactly the same. They both appeared at the starting point of the teleportation."
"Is there anything abnormal during the transmission process?"
Although distracted conversation while reconstructing the Silver Spire's defense system would affect the reconstruction efficiency, Shado was more worried about Tucson and O'Loughlin being unable to leave and ruining their progress.
So he could only patiently chat with the other party without saying a word. Of course, he was really curious about why these two guys failed to teleport away.
"There was indeed something wrong with the transmission process. It seemed like it was delayed or misled, but the process was too short and I didn't notice much."
Saying this, O'Loughlin's expression became even worse. He looked at Tussen, "Have you discovered anything?"
"No."
Tucson was almost losing his temper at this moment. After venting for a while, he leaned blankly against the wall at the entrance of Silver Spire. Hearing O'Loughlin's question, he subconsciously responded.
With this kind of character, Xia Duo saw it in his eyes, but he couldn't help complaining in his heart about how this guy survived when he was hundreds of years old. Shouldn't he have become cannon fodder in the trial between the upper-class families of Cormanso?
!
But on the surface, he still had to keep comforting and giving hope, "Since we can't leave for the time being, let's continue with our previous plan. As long as Paris is dealt with, everything can end successfully."
"By the way, as long as Paris is taken care of, we can definitely leave."
O'Loughlin recovered quickly, and under his persuasion, Tucson also joined in again. Although the conscious thinking efficiency was poor in the current state, the subconscious cooperation was not compromised much.
Therefore, Xia Duo naturally increased the depth of perception of the Lingsi network. Since the consciousness was not in the state, more subconscious minds were provided to make physical computer accessories.
