Chapter 488: Means
The old wizard smiled bitterly, walked to his desk, raised his hand and pressed a crystal ball on the desk, and then several rays of light shot out from the surrounding walls, converging together, and then after a burst of flash, a death
Gu's panoramic fantasy appeared in the air. Except for Leo, who was used to seeing holographic images, everyone else in the room couldn't help but exclaimed at this magical scene.
The old wizard who had been observing Leo and others was a little surprised by Leo's calm reaction. He was stunned for a moment, then returned to normal, then pointed at the panoramic fantasy of Death Valley and said: "Do you think it is necessary under the current situation?
Do you want to continue to ban it? And with your and my abilities, how can we possibly ban the abyss rift?"
I saw that with the movements of the old wizard's fingers, the panoramic view of Death Valley began to zoom in on areas one by one. In these scenes, they were all mutated creatures infected by the power of the abyss. Without exception, these mutated creatures became extremely powerful.
It's ugly, weird, and every mutated part is full of aggression, such as some kind of venom nozzle protruding from the body, some kind of horny skin comparable to a sword, etc.
Leo's eyes quickly scanned along with the changes in the scene, and he felt a little confused in his heart, because he did not see the black oil material after the erosion of the abyss. This meant that the erosion of this place by the abyss had not reached its peak, and there was no
It's as complete and irreparable as the royal city.
But even so, the entire Death Valley can be seen as being completely affected by the power of the abyss. Even if the tower wizard comes, I am afraid that he will be helpless in the face of this situation.
What's more, as the old wizard said, with their abilities, even if the tower wizard left a way to seal the entrance to the abyss, they might not be able to complete it.
"What about taking away the Poseidon artifact?" Leo asked again: "What should we do here? Just let it be swallowed by the abyss? Aren't you worried that after this place is swallowed by the abyss, the abyss will use it to penetrate into Velen outside?
?"
Leo's inquiry made everyone present become concerned. Having seen the consequences of the erosion of the abyss, they naturally did not want the world of Velen to become like Death Valley. This was not only related to their own safety, but also because they were in Velen.
There are still many concerns.
The old wizard said very confidently: "Don't worry about this. The tower wizard left a last resort in the past. As long as Death Valley is completely eroded by the power of the abyss, that means will work to connect Death Valley with Velen."
Cut it off completely and let Death Valley slide into the abyss on its own.”
"Otto, you are really a loyal dog of the Ying royal family, and you still haven't forgotten to help the Ying royal family get back the Poseidon artifact." Su said coldly: "Since the situation is so dangerous, why not use the tower wizard to stay now?
What about the method? Isn't it more appropriate to use it now? There is a Poseidon artifact that limits the abyss rift. The power of the abyss here is not strong enough to have a negative impact on Velen. We can completely inspire the former tower wizards to stay after we leave.
The last resort. It is too dangerous for you to take away the Poseidon artifact now. Think about it, if we take away the Poseidon artifact and the rift in the abyss suddenly expands, and the last resort is triggered before we leave, then don't we also have to
Are you in trouble?"
After hearing Su's words, most of the people in the room turned ugly. Although Su was just guessing, this guess could very well become a fact. No one here wanted to die here, let alone become one of those people who was corroded by the power of the abyss.
monster.
However, Leo heard that there were other hidden meanings in Su's words, because if Su's proposal was followed, then Su's mission could be said to have been successfully completed, and it would also make Mira, the enemy, never be able to
Then get the tree heart at the top of the room, which can be said to be killing two birds with one stone.
Instead of refuting Su's words, the old wizard nodded and said, "Yes, your guess is indeed very likely to come true." But the subject changed and he said, "But I just know that the tower wizard arranged such a last resort.
, I don’t know what this method is at all, and I don’t know how to activate it, so the best way is to take away the Poseidon artifact and completely unseal the abyss rift, so that it is possible to activate this method.”
Although there is nothing wrong with the old wizard's explanation, everyone has become suspicious because of Su's words. In addition, the old wizard's reputation as a palace wizard makes the old wizard's explanation a bit pale. On the contrary, Su's doubts are more in line with the old wizard's loyalty to the royal family.
image, so this explanation did not have much effect, and everyone was still suspicious of the old wizard's intentions.
"Is Earl Drake not dead yet?" At this time, a transcendent suddenly thought of a key question and asked.
"I don't know." The old wizard shook his head and said, "I have never seen him since he went to the abyss crevice." After saying that, he paused again and said with some embarrassment: "But
, even if he is alive, I am afraid he is no longer a human being."
After the old wizard said these words, everyone's faces became a little ugly, because the monster turned into by an ordinary person and the monster turned into by a tower wizard are completely different.
An extraordinary person couldn't help shouting: "Are you kidding? Let's deal with a tower wizard!"
Although no one present has ever seen the Tower Wizard, they have all been in the dark world for many years and have heard more or less about the Tower Wizard. Some of them have even seen the Tower Wizard.
Various relics left over from the past years, wizard artifacts made by the Tower Wizard, etc., so they have long regarded the Tower Wizard as a being close to gods.
But now on the road ahead of them, there is a monster turned into a tower wizard waiting for them. Even the optimistic people cannot see any chance of winning.
Only Leo still had a calm expression, as if he didn't know what kind of existence the tower wizard was. He just stared at the old wizard for a while and said: "If I guessed correctly, since you are right to take it away,
If the Poseidon artifact is so confident, then there must be a way to deal with Earl Drake, right?"
Because of Leo's guess, everyone's attention focused on the old wizard again.
The old wizard did not deny it, nodded and said: "There is indeed a way, but I don't know if it can be used."
"Why do you say that?" someone asked.
The old wizard explained: "Because this method was thought of by Earl Drake himself."
"Ah?" Everyone was stunned, not understanding what the old wizard meant.
The old wizard further explained: "When Earl Drake entered the rift of the abyss, he left a method and told me that if he was completely infected by the abyss, I could use this method to kill him.
, let everything return to normal.”
Everyone frowned, and the attentive Su said in a deep voice: "I remember that Earl Drake was already infected by the abyss, right? Is what he said at that time and the method he gave really useful?"
After saying this, everyone has no idea.
"Can I know what the method is?" Only Leo asked curiously.
Although judging from various invitations to Kunming Steel, although Earl Drake is a tower wizard, he is obviously not the strongest among the tower wizards, otherwise he would not be allowed to stay here.
However, even so, according to Leo's estimation, Earl Drake's strength is at least equivalent to a seventh-level psyker. Such a powerful strength is still not something that Leo, a fifth-level psyker, can deal with. After all, at the seventh level
, psychic energy, and life level will all increase by leaps and bounds, entering a completely different level.
But there is no chance now, because a wise wizard and a monster that has lost its mind, even if they are both seventh-level psykers, have different degrees of difficulty in dealing with them.
Leo knew from the information obtained from the eyeballs of the abyssal serpent that the body of any external creature eroded by the abyss would mutate. Some mutations would make the creature stronger, but other mutations would make the creature weaker. However, before all mutations occur, the affected body must
Infected creatures will lose their minds and eventually go crazy because of the whisper of the abyss that always appears in their minds. This is inevitable. Even gods as powerful as the Royal City will also be affected, but the intensity of the influence is different.
Therefore, if Earl Drake had been under the influence of the power of the abyss when he left the old wizard with the means to deal with him, he would never have had such a clear way of thinking. That method probably came from Earl Drake
original intention.
Hearing Leo's words, the old wizard hesitated for a moment, but finally stood up and walked to the desk. Under the gaze of everyone, he opened a dark box engraved with the root of Turing and took out a silver-white square from it.
, walked back to the crowd, spread it out in his hands, and showed it to everyone.
When they saw this silver-white square, Su and others had puzzled looks on their faces, because this square was so ordinary, just like an ordinary metal block. The only thing worth noting was this metal block.
It was polished very well and the surface was as smooth as a mirror.
However, when everyone focused their attention on the square, they did not see the frightened look on Leo's face at this moment. Even when everyone came forward to take a closer look at this item used to deal with Earl Drake, he
Instead, he moved his body back, as if to get as far away from the block as possible.
In fact, the moment the old wizard took out the thing, Leo had already recognized what it was and instinctively wanted to escape.
The reason why he had such a big reaction was because the thing in the old wizard's hands was too dangerous. It was an anti-matter bomb, and it was an anti-matter bomb without any safety device or protective shell.
Having used this extreme weapon to destroy enemy warships more than once, Leo of Fortress certainly knew how terrifying this thing was and every detail of it, so he felt panic in his heart.
Not to mention that this seemingly small anti-matter bomb is enough to destroy the entire valley where the Wizard Tower is located when activated. Without a protective device alone, the radiation generated by the exposed anti-matter core can already prevent any life form from evolving.
People in advanced states undergo fatal mutations in their bodies.
However, he soon calmed down, because if it really exploded or was exposed to radiation, he might not be able to escape now even if he wanted to, and more importantly, he discovered that this antimatter core actually existed without a suppressor.
down, in a stable state.
Keeping antimatter in a stable state under natural conditions has always been an insurmountable problem. Although there are rumors that advanced cosmic civilizations have found a way to solve the problem, these are always rumors, and there is no public evidence to confirm this.
There are currently only two methods of using antimatter cores. One is to add antimatter cores when the spacecraft urgently speeds up, so that the instantaneous energy burst from the antimatter cores increases the speed of the spacecraft to the constant speed of the universe. Most space fighters are equipped with
Similar devices, specially used to escape and avoid attacks.
However, because of the unstable state of antimatter, this method of using it is like gambling with your life. If you win the bet, you will be able to survive. If you lose the bet, you will die from the collapse of antimatter. Therefore, before the moment of life and death, fighter pilots
This function is rarely used, and sometimes people would rather be concentrated by the enemy's attacks than use this function, because the chance of surviving after being hit is much higher than the chance of antimatter collapse.
Another method is to use anti-matter bombs. Compared with speed-activating devices, the use of anti-matter bombs is relatively mature, and there are more protective measures. As long as you are not seeking death, decomposing the protective device, or not using it in accordance with the requirements
method, otherwise the anti-matter bomb will rarely detonate prematurely due to malfunction.
However, due to the manufacturing process, the manufacturing technology of this kind of anti-matter bomb has always been in the hands of a few qualified advanced cosmic civilizations. The Earth Federation is not among them, and the Waya people are just one of the civilizations that have mastered this bomb manufacturing method.
1, and this kind of bomb is also one of the most important commodities of the Wyal people. At least the Earth Federation buys a large number of such bombs from the Wyal people every year.
When Leo performed his mission, he also used anti-matter bombs made by the Weiya people, and all the knowledge he learned about anti-matter bombs was given to the anti-matter bombs given to the Weiya people, which also made him calm down and carefully observe the old wizard taking it out.
When I saw the antimatter core, I could immediately recognize that the producer of this core was the Weiya people.
At this time, Mira, who knew nothing about the antimatter core, reached out and touched the stable core, and asked doubtfully: "Isn't this just an ordinary piece of metal? What's the use? Is it really possible?
Against Earl Drake?"
