A simple step gives the feeling of a giant monster trampling the ground hard.
The dust disperses.
A giant wearing ferocious dragon scale armor appeared in front of Xifa.
The magic power around him glowed with white light because it was so strong.
It can be said that it is quite oppressive.
If it were an ordinary giant, Xifa wouldn't care much even if it lost its ability to cast spells.
However, the one who came just had the size of a giant.
The most obvious thing is his head, which is not an enlarged version of a human, but like a rhino's head.
If it weren't for the sharp horn, Western France would classify it as the legendary Triceratops.
The previous column was created by this giant using his own body and armor.
The bulky armor does not affect the giant's movement at all.
That's why Xifa looked solemn because the other party's power far exceeded his own.
boom--
The giant in heavy armor came to a stop about twenty meters away from Xifa.
This is probably a distance he can cover in two steps.
If he walked further, he would have to lower his head to see Xifa.
After standing still.
He spoke to the two people who looked up at him and said his purpose in a cold tone.
"The bane that disrupts the order of time! Please leave here immediately!"
Disrupting the order of time…
Does it refer to the time-travel magic that Alice just cast?
"Sorry, we just want to use the portal to get out of here."
Xifa answered cautiously, and at the same time dropped the shield that was emitting sparks and black smoke in front of the giant, and drew out the Sword of Gryffindor.
"A warning! The bane that disrupts the order of time! Leave immediately!"
The giant ignored Xifa, and this was where Xifa wanted to test.
Because he discovered that although the giant looked down at him, he seemed to only have eyes for Alice behind him.
He seemed to ignore his own words...
"Alice, what's going on?"
Sifa pulled Alice behind her who was not humming, and asked softly.
"This is the order maintainer created by the master back then to maintain the stability of the small world."
"However, their master has long since died."
"Now they are just puppets that can only mechanically execute instructions."
"Hey! Don't say it's useless. What should I do? Why is he targeting you?" Xifa asked in a very fast tone.
The giants put a lot of pressure on Western France.
Xifa thought it was okay to protect himself and escape.
Just take Alice with you.
"Warning——squeak————"
The giant in front of him suddenly made a harsh high-frequency sound.
Under the gaze of the two Westerners, it moved its body.
He is no longer as rigid as before, but instead has a little more awareness.
"Alice, didn't you say they were puppets? This doesn't look like it..."
Xifa said softly while pulling Alice back slowly.
"Hey! Kid! I'm not a puppet! I'm the guardian of order!"
Before Alice could answer, the giant in front of her spoke first.
"The kid behind you is distorting the timeline without authorization! I'm here to stop you!"
"What do you mean? We just want to use the teleportation array here to get on our way." Xifa still remained vigilant in asking questions.
"Oh! Sorry, our duty is to maintain the stability of the timeline. In the Kingdom of Dragon, no time changes are allowed to occur!"
"Why?"
"The reason is simple! We need to ensure the stability of time so that we can better maintain the sealing power here."
The giant answered every question of Xifa patiently, which made Xifa a little puzzled.
He couldn't help but express the confusion in his heart.
"Ah! You are the tester! I won't admit my mistake! Your dragon eyes are the best proof! I won't help you, but I will answer all your unforbidden questions!" With consciousness, the giant could not speak.
The muffled sound is no longer an empty feeling.
"Alice, is what he said true?"
Alice did not answer, but gently squeezed Xifa's arm, as if she was trying to restrain something.
"As far as I know, you shouldn't be so intelligent! Why?"
"The master who lent his master Nilin lent his treasure to the master for use. He helped us become metal beings."
The giant didn't hesitate and answered directly.
If ordinary wizards suddenly get this news, they can only get the literal meaning.
But Xifa knew that the time turner was most likely in the Department of Mysteries of the British Ministry of Magic.
In other words, there is a treasure in the Department of Mysteries that can transform machinery into life.
Like the source of fire in Transformers!
It’s hard to imagine that there are any amazing secrets in the Department of Mysteries of the British Ministry of Magic.
It's a pity that I am not qualified to get close to it now.
The top priority is to restore one's own strength.
"I need to hurry, but the portal here is broken. It was repaired, but you broke it again!"
Xifa did not put down his sword, but he complained in a brisk tone.
"Well! I'm very sorry, so be it! You can cast time-travel magic in front of me! Wait until you leave! I will clear away the traces of time distortion here!"
So easy to talk to?
Xifa looked at the giant suspiciously, pulled Alice in a circle, and came to the fragmented portal.
"Xifa, I need fifteen seconds. When the portal opens, you leave immediately!"
Alice's inaudible voice reached Xifa's ears.
Without asking why, Xifa stuck the Gryffindor sword on the ground without hesitation, and rushed towards the nearly twenty-meter-tall giant with billowing smoke.
Even with a sword, it would probably be difficult to break through the defense. All he needed to do was destroy the top of the tower as quickly as possible.
Let the giant drop below to tangle with those intricate vines.
In this case, it is estimated that it can be obtained in more than ten seconds!
"Bold! The bane of distorting time dares to bewitch the trialists!"
After the giant said this, Xifa also discovered that the giant he was fighting with only pushed him aside, but his attack on Alice was really deadly.
So, Xifa gritted his teeth, took a gamble, temporarily put his defense aside, and tried his best to stop the giant from advancing.
The giant only needed to take three steps to reach Alice, but these three steps were blocked by Xifa for ten seconds.
"Xifa!"
Alice shouted, and Xifa decisively drew the last ravine.
The top of the tower collapsed instantly, and the giant fell down. It seemed that the vines could stop him for ten seconds.
Only then did Xifa have the energy to focus on Alice.
Don't look at those ten seconds, Xifa used his calculation power and concentration to the extreme.
The giant didn't even take a step, and Western France attacked his weakest central point of support.
Force him to take a step back.
At the same time, Xifa will also fly backwards under the strong counterattack.
Fortunately, he was not injured, so Xifa had to stabilize his body in the shortest possible time. When the giant stabilized his body and moved forward, he just stopped him again.
However, the next scene stunned Xifa, who rarely took a deep breath.
"Don't worry about me! I will show up again! Now, it's time for you to leave!"
After saying this, the translucent Alice disappeared.
Only one card is left floating in the air.
Without enough time to feel sad, Xifa took the card and stood in the center of the teleportation gate that was activated again.
A ray of light flashed and Xifa's figure disappeared.
Not long after, the giant who claimed to be the guardian of order also came here.
However, he just looked at the ruins in front of him.
Then it turned into a column and was carried away by a ray of light from the sky...
