The last time I heard about a similar situation was at Gu Tian's place.
However, the spatial integration of Gutian is obviously older than here, and its origin is more mysterious.
There it was a real accident, here there are obvious traces of man-made stuff.
After all, chimeric foreign lands also have their own particularities.
If the chimera is only one demi-plane, the style and intensity will definitely not be as good as the chimera between the two main worlds of the dimension.
But no matter what, Marquis Ekmeledin does have the qualifications to be tough.
The situation at hand 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 Demonic Liquid].
The effect of [Negative Demonic Liquid] is amazing, but it still has no direct impact on time and space.
Unless it can be brought into contact with this magic circle or the core of 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 corroded by the magic liquid.
However, there is no chance to get to the core right now.
The particularity 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 types of attacks.
"Your Excellency is well-informed and should be able to understand what this means."
"The genius ancestor of the Clift family once made outstanding contributions to the kingdom."
"This is the magic circle set up by our ancestors."
He stopped talking after saying this, leaving enough suspense.
Taking out the name "ancestor" is just to increase the bargaining chip.
It can be seen that Marquis Ekmeledin still has not given up hope of peacefully resolving this matter.
Of course, it may also mean that his back-up plan that requires delaying time to complete has huge hidden dangers. In the eyes of the Marquis, even if he can expel or defeat Zong Shen with his back-up plan, he himself will have to pay a huge price!
Only this can explain his current reaction.
"These guys with the shadow of their ancestors are really difficult to deal with."
Zong Shen understands that the probability of encountering similar situations will only increase in the future.
The Endless Continent is so big, and its foundation is so profound.
In the changing of epochs, there will always be amazing and talented people leaving behind various backup plans.
Just like in front of you, this is the layout left by the ancestors of the Clift family.
A careful comparison will reveal that the spatial integration of Gutian's place is quite different from that here.
The first is the energy level. The integration there originates from the dimensional world, not the demiplane or other sub-level space bodies.
Secondly, strictly speaking, it should be regarded as fusion and intersection, and the level is higher than the simple chimera state.
By now, Zong Shen has understood that this magic circle is multi-complex.
The level is very high and the design techniques are quite exquisite.
It incorporates a variety of elemental powers.
Coupled with the characteristics of the chimeric space and some application of space system rules, it is enough to make most attacks ineffective.
Zong Shen thought for a moment, wondering what props to use to solve the trouble here.
The space-based rare items he has on hand should come in handy.
However, the use of space here is relatively advanced, and it is not a wise choice to use space means to confront it head-on. So let's think about it differently.
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 both will also have specific impacts.
For example, when Zong Shen used [Time Stop Orb] in the past, if it lasted for more than 1 minute.
Where the time-stop area meets the outside world, space will be torn apart.
There are many examples of space affecting time. The most obvious one is the issue of timing in different spaces. This can be proven by the training ground with timing privileges in Zong Shen's territory.
There are many similar examples.
So Zong Shen is planning to use time-based magic items to deal with this place.
Marquis Ekmeledin, who was hiding in the castle in the distance, was observing the changes in Zong Shen's expression using vision enhancement methods, but did not bother him when he saw him frowning in thought.
Just pretend that he is thinking about his own proposal.
But I didn't expect that Zong Shen had no intention of giving up at all.
Originally, he was not the kind of person who gave up easily.
What's more, soldiers from both sides had already started fighting, and at this time there were casualties on each other.
But in comparison, Zong Shen's losses were much smaller.
The battle ratio between the two sides can reach more than 1 to 6.
This is under the premise that both sides bring out elite soldiers to fight.
The giant city of Dagalisini lost almost 60,000 to 70,000 elite soldiers, and Zong Shen also lost tens of thousands of fifth- and sixth-level soldiers, and a clone died in the battle.
The destruction of the clone caused him to lose 65 points of wisdom attribute.
It must have been painful for a long time in the past, but now it's nothing.
Zong Shen has tens of thousands of points of wisdom attribute, but even Jin Zao is fine.
After the attribute base increases, many ideas become arrogant.
If the fighting continues, the casualties on both sides will definitely increase.
For Zong Shen, if the Marquis of Ekmeledin can be dealt with as soon as possible, the losses of both parties can be reduced.
After he captures the giant city of Dagalisini, he will eventually recruit the local garrison.
But this battle must be fought.
He couldn't give the elite giant city garrison a chance to take action.
This will inevitably be severely constrained.
Now the situation of king versus king and pawn versus pawn is already the optimal solution.
Thoughts were circulating in his mind, and Zong Shen did not talk to Marquis Ekmeledin again.
He believed that there was no need for the two sides to talk.
The Marquis also understood what Zong Shen meant, but he stopped provoking.
At this moment, the Marquis wished he could delay it for a little longer.
On the same spot, Zong Shen and Gujiat looked at each other silently.
The latter moved and came to a place more than a hundred meters in front of him to remain on standby.
It seemed like he was just standing still, but in fact it once again stimulated the protective effect of the ancient guards, and he once again shouldered the responsibility of the guards.
It was only then that Zong Shen took out a mini and exquisite hourglass.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! The length of an hourglass is only ten centimeters, and the two ends cannot hold much gravel.
But there is a charming luster inside the hourglass.
After a brief glance, information subtitles in gold writing appeared next to the hourglass.
【Shineng 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 reserve limit is 600 points, and each point corresponds to 1 second)
Stagnation of Sand (consumes time energy, causing an area with a radius of 50 kilometers to fall into a state of stagnation, which can last up to 600 seconds. During this period, space will be separated at the junction between the time-stop area and the outside world)
Backflow of sand (consumes time energy at a ratio of 100:1 and converts it into reverse flow time)
Downstream of sand (consumes time energy at a ratio of 100:1 and converts it into downstream time, which can accelerate itself or a small area)】
…
Zong Shen has had this hourglass for a while.
Recently, he has been placed in the timing training ground to reserve time.
The timing gap of 1:12 allows the hourglass to reserve more than 103 points of time energy every time a day passes by the outside world.
It's almost 6 days in the outside world, and the hourglass can accumulate up to 600 points.
This [Time Energy Hourglass] has three active effects.
[Sand Stasis] is time stop, and it saves time energy. 600 time energy points can be converted into 600 seconds of time stop time.
The last two skills [Sand Backflow] and [Sand Downflow] are the biggest consumers of time energy.
The former can turn back time, while the latter can speed up time.
100 hours of energy can only be converted into power for 1 second.
However, these two skills can be exchanged for minutes, seconds or even milliseconds.
Whether it is flowing backward or downstream, even a change on the order of milliseconds has the power to completely change the situation.
It is just right to use the power of timing to deal with this place.
Thinking of this, Zong Shen twitched the corners of his mouth and showed a faint smile.
This made Marquis Eckmeledin, who had always been staying in the castle, feel a little uncomfortable.
He seemed to be standing by the window and staring, but in fact he was preparing for a special bloodline ceremony.
There was a smaller magic circle behind him that enveloped him.
A large gash was opened on the wrist of one of the Marquis' hands, and blood flowed out, falling to the floor and being absorbed by the magic circle.
In his other hand, he held tightly the token engraved with his ancestor's name.
Taking himself and the token as a node, a wonderful connection is being established.
The cryptic seal is slowly being lifted.
While performing mysterious rituals, he observed Zong Shen's movements.
The magic circle enhanced his vision, allowing him to see changes in the distant scenery.
When Marquis Ekmeledin saw Zong Shen take out the small hourglass, he realized something was wrong.
He immediately prepared to take more radical measures to counterattack.
However, the ripples of time come and go in an instant.
The next moment, everything was silent.
The cessation of time brings absolute silence and stagnates the movement of matter.
The magic circles and various arrangements here are indeed mysterious, and the materials used are very precious.
It fully possesses the power of a demigod.
But it gradually slowed down under the shackles of the strange objects of time.
Yes, just slow down.
If you look carefully, you can see that the magic circle's operation speed has slowed down tens of thousands of times.
Although it is not completely restricted, this sluggishness itself greatly reduces its power.
This is a mutual restriction between the two rules.
Zong Shen didn't waste time. The 600-second pause meant that it was not too much to say too much and not too little to say too little.
While the magic circle is in an extremely sluggish state, this is the best opportunity to break through the restrictions in the core area!
Affected by the time stop, Gurgat also froze in place.
But if you observe a little bit, you can find vague fluctuations around its body.
This is a demigod-level powerhouse resisting restrictions.
Fortunately, the power of [Time Energy Hourglass (Special)] is far superior to [Time Stop Orb (Gold)].
Like [Time Stop Orb], let alone restricting demigods, even if it is used to restrict legendary powerhouses, it is still feasible.
Without wasting any time, Zong Shen grabbed the hourglass and dodged to Gujiat's side first.
Gently touching Gugart's body with the hourglass releases his restrained state.
Immediately afterwards, Zong Shen methodically took out the clay pots containing the [Negative Demonic Liquid].
After suppressing the operation of the opponent's magic circle, the most effective way to break it is still this thing.
Needless to say, Gurgat understood it heartily.
Immediately carry the clay pot and fly to where the light pillar of the castle is.
Zong Shen also jumped into the air, took out the East China Sea drift bottle and came to the other side of the light pillar.
Along with the sound of the clay pot breaking, a jet of magic liquid also spurted out.
A violent magic annihilation reaction occurred, and the light beam covering the entire castle shook.
The green traces spread quickly, but the speed is much slower than when it erodes the light curtain.
[Negative Demonic Liquid] is still very useful.
Even if the magic circle in the core area here is of a higher level, it cannot escape the erosion of the magic fluid.
The difference is only in the time of erosion and destruction.
Zong Shen didn't care about saving the magic liquid at this time, and quickly poured out a large amount of magic liquid around the magic light beam.
"Zi la la..."
There was a sound that rattled the eardrums, like watering the ground with aqua regia.
The strong sense of corrosion is enough to scare anyone.
This magical light pillar that envelopes the castle has no solid value.
Theoretically, it is only the core node of the array.
Through the strategy module, Zong Shen can get a rough progress of destruction.
After some fiddling, the damage quickly exceeded 80%. At this time, the erosion efficiency of the magic liquid suddenly slowed down.
This may mean that the surface part has been almost destroyed.
Deep spread is not achieved so quickly.
Zong Shen asked Gujiat to retreat to his side.
At this time, just over one hundred and seventy seconds had passed.
There is still plenty of time.
After thinking about the situation in front of him, he immediately took out the [Empty Cut Rubik's Cube (Unknown)].
Let this special space-based object be the last straw that breaks the camel's back.
Picking up the Rubik's Cube, Zong Shen made a thought and targeted the light beam in front of him.
"Activate [Space Divide]."
He subconsciously thought silently in his heart,
The next second, the light beam in front slowly twisted, and the clear and crisp sound of breaking could be heard.
It was like windows were broken.
The degree of destruction directly increased by more than ten percentage points.
The entire light column also became faint and blurry.
The castle hidden within finally became clear.
[Space Division] is a skill of Rubik's Cube.
It can forcibly separate spaces and destroy the coherence of space. Part of the divided space can be space defensive. It lasts for three minutes and must be separated by more than one hour between each activation.
Using space wonders to deal with this place is tantamount to "fighting fire with fire."
The reason Zong Shen didn't use it before was because he understood that simple space destruction could not have the final say.
The winning hand is still on [Negative Demonic Liquid].
When the magic liquid is almost used, let [Empty Cut Rubik's Cube (Unknown)] provide assistance.
After confirming the latest progress of destruction, Zong Shen waved his hand majestically.
"Gugat, blast it!"
Hearing this, the shoulders of the Gurgat armor bulged, and a technologically advanced shoulder cannon appeared.
Particle cannons bombarded the light beam one after another.
There is no damage, but each bombardment will make the light beam dimmer.
It's like the drawn pattern is slowly erased with an eraser.
Zong Shen squinted his eyes slightly and looked at the time-stop countdown that appeared in his mind.
