However, while launching the attack, the two eighth-level dragon blood guards seemed to have noticed something abnormal. The attack spell that was about to touch the central barrier and the rune ring on the ground stagnated in mid-air for an instant, and then even slowly retracted it.
This is the unique magic control of eighth-level professionals. At this level, because their own magic and will are completely integrated into one, all their spells are like a temporarily stretched out arm, completely controlled by their own will.
"Wait a minute, there seems to be some kind of special defense system here."
At the same time, Asira also reacted, a trace of solemnity flashed in his dark golden eyes, and he suddenly raised his hand, and a transparent ripple radiated from the gauntlet of his right arm.
As the ripples passed by, except for the spherical barrier in the center, everything in the room was covered with a layer of bright red light, like a bloody mouth opened by some kind of terrifying existence, trying to swallow the three people inside.
Seeing this scene, the expressions of the three people changed slightly.
"It seems to be a self-destruction trap. If it is judged to be an invasion by a foreign enemy, this place will be completely transformed into a death zone, and everything in the secret room will be destroyed indiscriminately.
Judging from the feedback from the detection device, the power of this trap is likely to be beyond our response range."
With the help of special detection artifacts, after carefully identifying the area highlighted by the previous ripples, a dragon-blooded secret guard spoke up and identified the hidden crisis here.
"My lords, is there any way to remove the trap here? The sword in the barrier is very important to me!"
After pondering for a few seconds, Asira looked at her two personal guards with bright eyes.
"I'm afraid...it's very difficult. It's not our strong point to crack such a particularly high-level magic circle through non-violent methods, Your Excellency Asira."
The two looked at each other, and finally, the slightly stronger Seamus spoke tactfully, breaking Asira's expectations.
As we all know, the strongest thing about the Aslade family is actually the inheritance of the Dragon Knight, rather than their profound magical attainments.
"Perhaps, we can set up a delayed detonation spell here? After triggering the self-destruction system here, we can then find a way to take away the sword?"
Morag provided another solution. If the bomb cannot be defused, wouldn't it be better to just detonate it?
"But if we do that, what if everything in the barrier is destroyed as well?"
After listening to his colleagues' suggestions, Seamus couldn't help pouring cold water on him.
"...No, wait, Lord Morag's suggestion does seem to be the best way now."
But Asila suddenly thought of something, and suddenly raised her hand to stop Seamus' words.
"As for whether that sword will be destroyed by the self-destruction system, you don't have to worry. If it is really the sword I imagined, then this kind of self-destruction system without the power of rules is definitely not enough.
destroy it.
And if it is really destroyed, then it can only prove that the sword is fake."
The discussion was finalized, and fearing that others would find this place in advance, the three of them started to set up time-delay magic traps resolutely, and then quickly evacuated.
Anvis, who was hiding in the dark and watching, also quickly moved away. In his induction, the severe sense of death crisis became stronger and stronger, and even though he had left the secret room far away, it was still clouded in his heart.
Damn it, could that be the self-destruct device of the entire ruins?
As he quickly fled towards the entrance of the ruins, Anvis couldn't help but curse in his heart.
The person who snatched the Sword of King Selection from the imperial royal family back then was a mysterious ninth-level extreme powerhouse.
As a secret laboratory of the ninth level, subspace technology is also used here. In fact, it is not in the main world at all. If you want to escape from here, you can only pass through the original entrance of this fragmented space.
Anvis didn't think that his clone could withstand the power of the defensive means left by the opponent.
On the other side, the three people who also quickly left the secret room unexpectedly encountered a familiar guy on the road.
"Hey, isn't this Mr. Asira? Where are you in a hurry?"
As a somewhat frivolous voice sounded, a huge magic barrier suddenly rose from in front of the three of them. The strong and destructive black current flowing on it made all three of them frown.
"Do you want to start a war with me by stopping us here, Skatha Enoch?"
A trace of haze flashed in the dark golden eyes. Asira's hand was already on the hilt of the sword at her waist, staring fiercely at the black-haired and silver-eyed man in front of her, holding a long-handled staff with exaggerated proportions.
Young people seem to take action directly if they disagree.
"Oh yo yo, I'm so scared - I'm actually being threatened by the powerful seventh-level expert, Your Excellency Asira Aslade!"
But in response to his threat, the young man blocking his way showed an exaggerated and frightened look. But combined with the eighth-level aura he exuded, it gave people a strong sense of yin and yang.
The next moment, his expression suddenly returned to calmness, as if his personality had changed instantly.
"But, the direction you appeared in is the core area of the ruins. Do you want to leave now? So, can you share your harvest? Or do you want me to search it myself?"
As he spoke, three silver-white secret magic statues slowly emerged from the shadows behind him, each of which exuded an eighth-level magic aura. Judging from the faint resonance of its fluctuations, the three magic statues seemed to be
It can also perform special chain attacks.
Among the higher-ups in the empire, Enoch and the Aslade family are notoriously difficult to deal with. Even though Aslade's relationship with the other two of the four major families is very bad, it is far from the level with the Enoch family.
The level of hostility of the Nok family.
The Enoch family believes that the people of Aslade are a group of uncivilized bloodthirsty beasts who can only rely on their brains and muscles to tear their prey into pieces with instinct and claws. Their behavior is completely blasphemous to the word nobility.
The Aslade family believes that Enoch's people are a bunch of arrogant nerds, and they only evade and throw spells from a distance in battle. Their appearance as if everything is under control is simply disgusting.
"Go away, Scatha! I have no time to fight with you now."
Being blocked by a guy she usually didn't deal with, Asira was a little anxious. A fierce light flashed in her eyes, and she instantly sent out a long-charged slash.
Although unlike Avis, who could even see vague fragments of the future, a sense of crisis, like a sharp knife hanging above his head, still lingered in his heart.
For this reason, he did not continue to talk nonsense, and directly launched his full attack, hoping to forcefully break through the black thunder barrier blocking them while Skatha was not paying attention.
But Skatha just waved his staff, and a series of negative states directly entangled Yaxi. Weakness, slowness, freezing, curses, distortion of perception, changes in gravity, folding of space...
Even though these controls are blocked by the armor and talismans on Asira's body, Skatha's hard power will eventually surpass Asira's.
When the menacing sword struck the black thunder barrier, its strength was only 23/10 of its previous strength.
The barrier easily blocked his attack, and the black thunder that spread backwards along the sword blade even injured Asira a little.
"What are you worried about?"
There was an indifferent brilliance in his silver-white eyes, and Skatha was keenly aware of Asira's unusual urgency.
This is his fighting state. In this state, all meaningless emotions will be calmed, and perception, calculation power and mental power will be specially strengthened.
At this time, his demon image has entangled the two eighth-level enemies on the opposite side. In no more than ten minutes, he will be able to completely subdue Asira.
After estimating the current strength of both sides, she realized that she could not break through the opponent's blockade in a short time. Asira had no time to explain and immediately canceled the delay spell she had deployed before, not wanting to be buried here with this annoying guy on the other side.
But after the magic was lifted, Asira was horrified to find that the terrifying sense of crisis had not disappeared at all!
