Chapter 553: Hidden Murder
The response that Balliard received from Desolation was that it could not touch those things under the soil. Even if it looked to the naked eye that Desolation had indeed touched the stasis barrier, in fact, it could not touch the stasis barrier.
Vision only brings illusions, and even illusions will not allow ruin to appear behind the stagnation barrier.
The effects brought about by the stagnation barrier cannot be solved by beings at the level of demigods. Even if it is a true god, without the level of the Eternal One or the Omniscient and Almighty, stagnation is still an unsolvable effect.
This is the use of time. Even if it is a true god, only the Eternal can transcend time.
"What to do now?"
Ezreal now knows that Balliard is confirming the scope of the stasis barrier in this place, but he doesn't understand the meaning of doing so. It is obvious that whether the stasis barrier fully covers this isolation laboratory or not
, Balliard will not give Zhonya's hourglass to anyone else.
This is not a matter of trust, but out of safety considerations. Except for Baliard, no one in their group can see the incomplete spiritual beast. This means that if the giant beast makes a sneak attack, except for Baliard, no one can see it.
No one except Yad can discover it.
Perhaps Ezreal has good intuition as a transcendent, but that incomplete spiritual beast was once a demigod, and its level of strength is not comparable to that of Ezreal. Accordingly, even if that beast relies on
Instinct, and knew how to avoid Ezreal's perception.
In this way, as long as Balliard dares to hand over Zhonya's hourglass, the giant beast will secretly plan a sneak attack, and Balliard will have no time to keep an eye on the other people.
"Following what you thought before, don't you want to see where these potholes stop? I want to know that too."
It was not difficult for Balliard to guess Ezreal's previous thoughts. After all, he had been in contact with Ezreal for so long, and had also served as Ezreal's instructor, helping Ezreal become a qualified transcendent.
.
"...Because the giant beast might try to escape in another way?"
Ezreal also knew Valyard very well. He hadn't thought of this problem before, not because he couldn't think of it, but because he didn't think in this direction. He had his own thinking model and his own thinking habits.
Ezreal will not change his way of thinking when his own thinking can bring certain guidance, but this does not mean that he cannot think of Balliard's ideas.
"This is natural. The giant beast was not trying to leave when he entered here for the first time. When he tried to leave, it may have been the second time or more times. This may be the Mage of the Age of Gods.
A specially set trap."
Balliard wants to find the remains of the mutilated spirit body. Following these things, he should be able to find the place where the giant beast made its final struggle. It is possible to find the remains of the giant beast near that location.
Very high.
"Trap? What trap?"
Even if Ezreal could imitate Balliard's way of thinking, he couldn't come up with a suitable conclusion after Balliard suddenly said something like this.
.
"Don't underestimate the wisdom of the ancient mage, that
When the Mage of the Gods made the deal with the void creature, he thought about how to restrain the void creature in the future. The stagnation barrier that isolated the laboratory was only opened once after the void creature came here, which was to trap the void creature.
That time with the void creature."
This time, Balliard also contacted the information left behind by the previous divine mage - destroyed it. What was destroyed? Generally speaking, it should have destroyed Baron Nash's rescue plan, but how was it done specifically?
Destroying the gigantic body of the void creature who came to rescue Baron Nash is the best way. The void creature wants to be gigantic. There is no doubt that he needs to be gigantic to achieve his goal. Correspondingly, as long as the void creature is destroyed,
The giant body of the creature can destroy the void's plan to rescue Baron Nash.
"The Mage of the Age of Gods has never used this stagnation barrier to create an illusion of safety for the void creature. Then every time he communicates with the void creature or performs any transformation, it is in this place. The last time he wants to take action against the void creature,
When you eliminate the troubles, you open the stagnation barrier."
"... To eliminate future troubles, just condensation barrier is not enough. You don't want to think that there is a hidden magic circle in it, or is it a magic circle that is extremely destructive and can kill a demigod?"
Ezreal knew that Balliard's so-called elimination of future troubles was not just about sealing the enemy. Sealing the enemy was just to prevent the enemy from causing trouble to him for the time being. It was only temporary.
"You guessed it right, so we must make sure that Zhonya's hourglass is in our hands, otherwise, once the magic circle is activated, it will grind the demigod to death forever."
Balliard doesn't take that magic circle to heart now, because he holds Zhonya's hourglass, which is equivalent to holding the key to enter and exit the isolation laboratory at will, as long as he is at the boundary of the isolation laboratory, whether it is around or up and down.
, as long as he comes into contact with the boundary of the isolation laboratory, he can easily open the stasis barrier and escape.
Moreover, the effect of this magic circle is not very powerful. What is more important is time. According to Balliard's speculation, the magic circle that relies on time to grind demigods to death should be related to the burning state.
A magical effect that ignores all resistances and causes damage.
Similar to Brand's Tarsal Flame, but the short-term damage is not as good as Brand's, but the long-term effect far exceeds Brand's magic.
The group of people continued to move forward, but they did not rely entirely on walking. The previous journey of 1,300 meters would not take long, but now, the distance they have to walk may be hundreds of kilometers.
A mortal's journey would probably take several days to cover hundreds of kilometers.
Even if a mortal can move at a speed of five kilometers per hour, it seems that he can complete the walk in one day, but mortals have physical limitations. The average person can walk unremittingly for seven hours, which is the limit. Even people like Sun Shangxiang are very capable.
For ordinary people, walking ten hours a day is almost the limit.
Balliard didn't have that much time to consume, so his black mist once again surrounded these people and supported the group of people forward.
"The potholes have stopped here. The instruments can be released again. Please pay attention. If you find anything special, you can notify me immediately."
Valliard did not summon him this time
He summoned the souls of the dead to explore. Before, he thought it was because the souls of the dead were unwilling to work seriously and just slipped away casually. But now, there may be part of the reason for this, but it also has the reason of the giant spiritual beast.
The dead souls are also a kind of spirit body. Those dead souls have no resistance at all in front of the spiritual beast. If Balliard lets the dead souls search this place, they will find at most the activity range and movement direction of the spiritual beast, but
They are not mindless idiots.
He would not really reveal his actions to Balliard completely, and he might even create some illusions to confuse Balliard and achieve other goals.
"learn."
Annie interjected casually, and then everyone else was stunned.
"...You all know what to do, right? Don't be stunned."
Valliard gave Anne a hint on the head. This girl was watching cartoons and didn't know what to do.
He himself was here, looking around. The giant beast should be here. Although Balliard did not find the giant beast, he always felt a sense of being spied on. The giant beast was probably lurking.
Now, those obstacles in the master meeting may be the hiding place of the giant beast.
After all, he is a spirit body and can compress his body at will. Not to mention that the obstacles here are so huge, even a small stone may be the hiding place of the giant beast.
He couldn't just leave the giant beast peeping aside. The best way was to find the skeleton of the giant beast and use the bones to forcefully control its spirit body.
Under Balliard's order, Sun Shangxiang and others worked very seriously, but Sun Shangxiang suddenly felt a sense of crisis and a chill.
This sense of crisis was almost the same as when they encountered the giant bird before, and this chill was the feeling they felt when the invisible giant beast mentioned by Ezreal appeared.
"His Majesty?"
Sun Shangxiang raised his head and looked at Balliard.
"Did you find anything?"
Balliard glanced at Sun Shangxiang. He didn't care much about this mortal, nor did he value this mortal very much. After all, the possibility of a mortal in this world becoming a transcendent was too low. Even if Sun Shangxiang had the blood of a changer, this
Can blood be stimulated, and to what extent?
However, the inconspicuous Sun Shangxiang actually made suggestions before Ezreal at this time? This is really surprising.
"I feel... that giant beast should be nearby."
Sun Shangxiang was in a very bad condition, his heart was beating very fast, his muscles were tense, and he was always on guard against possible attacks anytime and anywhere.
"Huh? How do you feel?"
Balliard took a look and confirmed that the giant beast had not appeared yet. Even he could not detect the existence of the giant beast when it did not appear. How could Sun Shangxiang detect it?
"There is just a voice in my heart... urging me to run away."
