This feeling is a bit weird, a bit similar to the feeling of a person who was originally a fruitful person suddenly put on clothes.
During his mental power detection, his existence suddenly disappeared. No matter the shape, temperature, or faint mental ripples, they were completely integrated with the air in the environment.
But if he observed it with the naked eye, he could still see his own existence, which gave him a strange sense of dissonance.
Except for the above two items, there is nothing too special. They are all ordinary but valuable ancient gold coins, rare magic metals, gems, etc.
After putting all the resources away in categories, Anvis finally ordered Thorium to clean the laboratory and remove the traces of the ritual circle left on the ground.
Overall, the entire soul separation ceremony was completed much faster than he thought.
When he walked out of the laboratory, the sky outside was just afternoon.
Since there is no interference from the consciousness of the summoned object, unlike the original companion summoning ritual, the soul splitting ritual has no strict requirements on the caster's own rank in theory.
But in actual application, there is an implicit standard for soul strength.
If the soul strength gap between the two parties is too large, the caster's soul will be unable to control the soul of the summoned object that is too high-level, causing the separated soul to directly collapse and be injured.
Under normal circumstances, an ordinary third-level spell caster can choose at most three summons beyond himself as clones. If there are more, the probability of the soul seed collapsing will become very high.
However, the 'unnaturally talented' Anvis is naturally not among them.
Due to the contract with the Power Dragon, Anvis has relaxed some of his superficial strength, reaching the level of the middle stage of the third stage.
This imitates the situation where the summoner's strength suddenly increases after contracting an initial summoned object whose rank is higher than his own.
"Brother! You finally came out! Have you heard? There are so many scary dark creatures out there!"
When he left the laboratory, Fiona, who had been waiting outside, quickly ran to find him.
After saying that, the girl seemed to feel that she was not convincing enough, so she let go of Kate in her arms and tried to make gestures with her little hands.
Since she was in the safe Pamir Academy, Fiona didn't have much information. She didn't learn about it until some students who returned to the academy from an outing.
The girl was shocked when she saw the scale of the beast tide outside through the projection crystal ball. She had never seen such a terrifying beast tide before, and she couldn't help but worry about her family's situation.
"Don't worry too much, Fei, we won't encounter any danger in Pamir Academy.
Besides, my father has told me before that the family is strong enough to protect the province of Kalras, and we only need to stay in the academy with peace of mind and wait for the beast tide to pass."
With a warm smile on his face, Anvis looked at the girl's slightly nervous lake-blue eyes, and spoke in a soft and comforting tone.
"Unlike the tide of beasts on the surface, dark creatures are very unadapted to sunlight and are destined to be unable to live on the surface for a long time.
Therefore, the duration of this disaster will not exceed half a month at most——"
"Really? Then I'll be relieved~"
Listening to Anvis's analysis, Fiona's originally nervous mood relaxed again.
"Of course, dear Fei, so we just need to wait patiently."
Anvis smiled and nodded, his tone calm, as if he didn't care at all about the terrifying tide of dark beasts outside.
However, after comforting Fiona, the girl did not notice the hidden worry in his eyes.
Just as he said, the characteristics of dark creatures determine that they are destined not to survive on the surface for too long.
It is precisely for this reason that when they are hindered, their offensive often becomes particularly crazy.
In addition, their own sanity has become violent and chaotic due to being corroded by the dark power for many years. When attacking, they are surprisingly bloodthirsty and fearless of death.
If you want to survive this half month, I'm afraid it will not be as easy as the Duke's words make it sound.
The subsequent development of the situation was indeed as Anvis expected.
In the next few days, millions of dark creatures were killed by high-level professionals and the super giant defense array guarding the main city.
Unable to attack the meteorite ruins for a long time, the large group of dark creatures went completely crazy.
The surviving dark creatures began to devour each other, quickly ascending the ranks, and then followed the leadership of the ninth-level and ninth-level extreme dark creatures to launch a general attack in the direction of the ruins.
These ninth-level extreme dark creatures that are completely crazy have turned into a completely life-for-life attack method.
Perhaps the number of high-level professionals located near the ruins is much greater than the number of dark creature commanders. However, the defense line is still gradually showing its weakness.
High-level professionals cherish their lives the most, and no one is really willing to fight against dark creatures of the same level in order to protect the ruins.
Therefore, after struggling for the ninth day of the beast tide, the defense line of the ruins was finally completely broken through.
A large number of dark creatures crazily poured into the ruins area, and were instantly killed by various deadly traps.
Although it ultimately failed to prevent the beast tide from entering the ruins, it had both disadvantages and advantages.
When the beast tide rushes into the ruins, many ancient buildings and magical structures will be destroyed by the beast tide, and a lot of important knowledge will be destroyed.
But with the beast tide stepping on mines and covering in front, many ninth-level people were able to follow closely and enter the ruins to explore.
Soon, the entire ruins were thoroughly explored.
I don’t know whether I should be lucky or not, but there is no Eternal Core in this half of the ruins.
The ninth-level extreme darkness creatures that were the first to rush into the depths of the ruins were nowhere to be found. In a terrifying hall where their traces had completely disappeared, some disturbing and huge suspicious traces could be found.
After sealing off the dark hall for the first time, many ninth-level people began to digest their gains in the ruins.
Speaking of which, although the Empire was the hardest hit area by this invasion of dark beasts, the actual losses were far less than expected.
Due to the influx of a large number of foreign professionals, the empire was in turmoil. The royal family had to dispatch the Radiant Knights to various parts of the empire to maintain stability, and it came in handy at this time.
Many of the foreign professionals who poured into the empire were impressed by the high rewards offered by the empire and joined in the fight against the tide of dark beasts.
Among them, the performance of the players is particularly eye-catching.
A large number of low-level players who wanted money rather than their lives rushed to perform death-defying missions, causing the casualties of the aborigines to drop significantly.
And the players can also get the most generous bounty, including their own pensions, and everyone is happy.
