Chapter 38: threaten
The hall on the first floor of the Tower of the Great Sage was completely enclosed, and the light from the lighting fixtures on the wall filled every corner, illuminating the room like daylight, and the five inspectors couldn't even see their own shadows. And the black air around his body seemed to have weakened slightly as he was defeated by such a bright environment.
But other than that, no other action. It seems that the fierce tiger with its fangs and claws is only showing its fangs, and has not yet pounced. Even so, the deep hostility from the tower owner made it difficult for the inspectors.
One of them asked the person who sent the magic missile, and said, "I thought our trip was just to negotiate with the tower owner. But we never said we would do anything."
"If you want to negotiate, you have to arrest the person first and then negotiate. We can get whatever conditions we want. You also know that the predicament that Kadiz District is facing today is entirely caused by this person. He must personally take care of the aftermath and appease the anger of everyone."
"Difficulty? Anger? Only your family has suffered losses. I have not agreed to raise this operation to the level of attacking towers. A magic tower with an owner."
"So what if he has a master, but he is just a rookie who has been here for less than a year. Apart from designing some magic that others can't understand, he has no achievements worth mentioning. What's more, he didn't meet us personally, so This is the first time I have encountered such a disrespectful behavior. I think it is necessary to take him back and re-instruct him on etiquette."
"If you had come forward in person, you wouldn't have beaten him down right now. If you want to show someone off, you won't allow others to respond."
"Hmph. What's the use of saying this now, the other party has already shrunk into its shell like a tortoise. Even our escape route has been sealed off," the inspector who spoke pointed to the closed gate of the magic tower. "──Now there are only two options left. One is to break through the gate and return without success; the other is to go to the core room, capture him, and bring him back to the association. What's your opinion?"
The speaker glanced at the crowd, and seemed to want to make an opinion besides those who had originally disagreed with him. The others remained silent, staring at the central circular stairwell and other places where there might be nodes of the magic circle.
Another person said knowingly: "The tower owner doesn't seem to want to do anything."
"No! This is just proof that he can't do anything to us. We have already analyzed the various layouts of this dilapidated magic tower from the data, and there is no threat to our capabilities. In less than a year, let him Rearranging, what he can do is to fill the hole in the wall, add the circular staircase to the wall, and at most set up some mechanisms to kill ordinary people. Is it possible that you, who expect to be recognized by the great magician, will be afraid Such an antique?"
"No, I just don't like being used by you. This time I go back, I want to apply for a team transfer."
"It's up to you, but this time, remember to do your best, or if you go back, I will report the matter, and you will suffer."
But the leader shouted impatiently, and said: "It's useless to talk too much. Now that you've done it, don't think about other things. Catch him as soon as possible. I don't want to stay in other people's magic tower for too long. He pointed to the magician who attacked first, and said, "Kos, you provoked this matter, and you will be the striker."
"Hmph, a bunch of cowards. I can deal with this kind of blind rookie alone."
After mocking his companions, the magician called Koos strode forward. Long before entering the tower, everyone has put on the auxiliary magic. What we have to do now is to crack the traps of the magic tower one by one, attack the third floor, and take down the guy who deserves to be hacked into pieces.
Koos raised his hand, and the thumb ring emitted a strong spiritual light, followed by another magic missile, which hit the central stairwell. This is a tempting mind. In the original information about the Tower of the Great Sage, the central circular staircase is not covered. Now this rookie makes a stairwell, maybe just use ordinary stone to make up the number. Then it would be the best choice to blast away that earthen wall and use the flying technique to go straight to the third floor.
It's just that the wall of the stairwell didn't collapse as expected. Instead, dense magic energy channels flashed, which well defended against the power of the magic missile.
Immediately afterwards, a blue beam of light thinner than a little finger emitted from the wall of the stairwell, connected to the wall of the hall, at about waist height, and slowly swept towards everyone.
It was a trap he had never seen before, but Koos was extremely confident in the effect of his stone skin technique, which was comparable to steel-grade defensive power, far beyond the effect of the apprentice's display.
Waiting for the magic attack, even if I stand upright and let the opponent bombard me, I can't hurt myself. It's as if this beam of light swept across from the waist without hindrance, and didn't...
The black robe that was broken into two pieces, and the wrist that fell to the ground shocked the other four people. The blood sprayed from the waist to the surroundings all explained the ending of the Koos magician. The rest of the people quickly squatted on the ground, not daring to touch the blue light beam again.
When the light beam swept across the hall, it disappeared. In less than a breath, a second light beam was produced, which was at the height of the ankle, and swept over with the same path and speed.
The four people who have already raised their attention, of course, will not easily come into contact with this unknown trap. With a slight lift of his feet and strides, he dodged this attack. But Koos, who had fallen to the ground, did not have such a blessing. He twisted his body and upper arms in terror, trying in vain to escape the second sweep. The blue beam cut him longitudinally into two halves, his chest and back, and a large amount of blood and internal organs spilled all over the ground. And he couldn't die anymore.
Without waiting for an order, the remaining people immediately cast spells, traps, and powerful destructive magic. Try to stop the traps of the magic tower. However, the third beam sweeping at about the height of the neck followed immediately, and he didn't want everyone to recite the mantra with peace of mind.
The interrupted destruction magic cannot be cast smoothly. However, breaking the curse and breaking the trap has no effect. At this time, everyone has regretted a little bit, being tricked by the dead to attack the tower. At this time, the fourth light beam swept over, again at waist height.
Following the trajectory of the beam sweeping, everyone retreated to gain time and space. Some people thought in their hearts that they wanted to make peace with the tower owner; others looked around carefully, trying to find the center of the trap and destroy it in one fell swoop. This kind of trap with only three changes and an endless cycle, as long as you know it, you can't hurt people anymore. But breaking it is another matter.
My mind was spinning, but I hadn't reached a conclusion yet, the beam of light from my waist suddenly changed. It turns into two obliquely connecting the ceiling and the floor, with different directions, intersecting to form an X-shaped beam.
With this extremely stupid change, the inspectors flashed towards the X-shaped gap at the same time, and they no longer backed away, intending to let the light beam sweep them by. Before he had any other thoughts, the big X suddenly extended countless parallel blue light beams, criss-crossing and weaving into a dense network. The most terrible thing is that there is also a beam net behind it, sweeping from the opposite direction.
Just as they were closing together, the four magicians who were used to fighting in the battlefield all cast their own defensive magic that they were good at. Shields, masks, summon golems, any door. But all of this is either too late, or it cannot stop the closing of the two beam nets.
The optical network staggered past, and after going around the hall for a week, it disappeared. But the four inspectors stood still. After a while, net traces appeared on the body, and the body that was cut into countless small pieces was scattered all over the ground.
Three people watching the surveillance screen in the core room. The two apprentices still couldn't adapt to this level of **** scene, and covered their eyes in fear. Lin, on the other hand, looked at his achievements indifferently. This trap is exactly the replica of the notorious laser tunnel in the first episode of the movie version of Evil Castle.
Speaking of recent research, the wavelength measurement of the spectrum has not been researched yet, but a method to increase the power of bright light, that is, the energy joules contained, has been discovered by accident. Simply put, Lin has implemented a magic version of the laser. It's a pity that that's not what a person's power and mana capacity can display, and can only be used with the help of the energy pool of the magic tower.
Only then did the tower of the great sage be tentatively transformed, and someone sent him to his door to make experimental materials for himself.
As far as the result is concerned, it can only be regarded as unsatisfactory. Lin, who is also a magician, knows very well that killing a team of inspectors so easily is to bully the other party who has never read the information on this kind of trap, so there is no way to defend or destroy it in a targeted manner.
Just like in the movie, hackers are used to invade the computer and stop the operation of the laser channel. Lin himself could think of several ways to crack the laser trap he had set up.
To perfect it, it is also necessary to think about the collocation of different traps and arrange them into a series of traps. And hide the nodes of the magic circle better, instead of foolishly deploying them on every wall, ceiling and floor of the hall.
If any place is destroyed by someone, it is like clearing a fire lane for refuge. No matter how powerful the laser beam is, it is useless if it cannot scan people.
However, these improvement methods are not in a hurry to think about. Right now there is another important matter~www.readwn.com~that is, what is the purpose of this group of inspectors from the Kadiz branch coming here in a rage.
After turning off the first-level defense system of the Tower of the Great Sage and returning to a normal state of alert, Lin sent two apprentices to clean up the debris on the first floor. He himself opened the forum page, recalling the administrator password he had never used.
Originally, I planned to use the administrator privileges to enter the unopenable post and see what the content said. But the administrator password has been useless for too long... It should be said that it has never been used since it was established, and I can't recall it for a while. Furthermore, the content of the post may not be understood at all, and the reader has to guess and think about it before he can figure out the original meaning. It is better to find someone who understands it directly.
To the magicians, the Association of Magicians can only be regarded as a loose structure, and they are reluctantly united by interests. The inspectors will only respond to acts of serious evil, or acts that seriously violate the common interests of magicians. Some trivial things, such as murder, arson, **** and robbery, can't make this group of ghosts worry.
This time, even though the inspector team came from the Kadiz district, Lin believed that Chengguo Eaton, the chairman of the Xijia district branch, would definitely pay attention to it.
It's like two gangs living in peace, if the boss of the gang next door suddenly sent out his number one pawn, how could the boss not go to inquire about the news and understand the cause and effect. If the gang next door was targeting me, I still foolishly thought that the matter had nothing to do with me and didn't make any arrangements. When death is imminent, you will only get a comment of 'deserved it'.
Having said that, Lin also sent a message to the old man's magic tower energy pool. But whether that high-ranking old man would remember such a small role as himself, and even take the time to respond, he had no idea.
