From the Abyss Invasion to the Blasting Star

Is it healing or prolonging life?

This question made Fiona fall into silence, and her silence has explained the answer.

If this is the case, all the information is connected.

It seems that the truth has surfaced.

Augustus was seriously injured in the battle with the Blood King ten years ago, and his life is about to come to an end. He can only rely on the sap of the Ancient Tree of Life to prolong his life every month.

But this method cannot last long. If he wants to survive, the only way is to transform into a lich.

As long as he puts his soul into the phylactery, he can get rid of the shackles of the body and become an immortal existence.

This also explains why the phylactery is a crystal bottle.

It also explains why there is Moon Well water in the phylactery.

The elves like to use crystal bottles as containers, and Augustus has a respected status in the elves. As long as he wants, he can access the Moon Well at any time.

Similarly, this also explains why the conscription appears.

Augustus is the great arcanist of the elves, and the only remaining greatest arcanist in the Quel'dorei world.

He is good at space magic. When Xie Shien opened the cork of the crystal bottle in the human world, he felt the breath of the Moon Well spring water across space, and then used magic to affect the conscription.

In addition, Lu Heng also thought of the secret that Dionysus said before his death.

At that time, I couldn't guess what the secret was, but now I finally understand what it is.

Dionysus is a lich, and he may know the secret of Augustus' transformation into a lich.

This secret is indeed enough to ruin Augustus' reputation, so he wants to use this secret to exchange for a chance to survive.

If this is the case, there is another contradictory point.

When Dionysus wanted to tell the secret, it was the elf sword saint Tyrese who killed him.

In other words, Tyrese knew that Augustus would transform into a lich.

So Tyrese also betrayed the elves?

No, it seems that something is wrong.

Lu Heng carefully recalled the process of contacting Tyrese. Tyrese's concern for Queen Oriana did not seem fake.

Moreover, he taught me the Wind Dragon Absolute Slash because he wanted me to solve the crisis of the elves.

From this point of view, it is impossible for Terris to betray the elves.

If he did not betray the elves, why did he kill Dionysus and keep the secret for Augustus?

Lu Heng couldn't think of the reason and asked, "Do you think Terris will betray the elves?"

Hearing this, Fiona was shocked again and blurted out, "Impossible..."

However, she was not so confident halfway through her words.

If it was yesterday, someone asked her: Will Augustus betray the elves?

She would also answer without hesitation: Impossible!

However, everything that happened before her eyes made her faith collapse.

The great arcanist Augustus wanted to betray the elves and wanted to transform into a lich.

This is a devastating blow to the fate of the elves.

If even the elf swordmaster Terris betrayed, then does the elves still have a future?

She looked puzzled and asked, "What do you mean? Why did you mention Lord Teres?"

Lu Heng thought and answered, "In fact, it was not me who destroyed Dionysus's phylactery, but Teres.

"At that time, Dionysus wanted a secret to exchange for his life, and the secret he mentioned was about Augustus.

"He said at the time that this secret would bring ruin to Augustus.

"I couldn't guess what the secret was at the time, but I know now.

"As a lich, Dionysus should have known the secret that Augustus wanted to transform into a lich.

"When he wanted to tell the secret, Teres took action and destroyed the phylactery with a sword.

"This is obviously a way to silence someone. Teres is keeping a secret for Augustus.

"So, I suspect that Teres has also betrayed the elves. ”

Fiona shook her head vigorously: "Impossible, impossible..."

She couldn't believe it. If two of the three most powerful elf elders betrayed the elves, the elves would lose their will to survive.

Lu Heng frowned and thought: "I also think that Terris will not betray the elves, so why did he help Augustus keep the secret?"

I can't think of the reason. Lu Heng can't think of it, Fiona can't think of it, and no one here can think of it.

Since I can't think of it, I simply don't think about it.

Lu Heng pulled out the Aurora Blade and said: "Let's find a way to get out first. Everyone, make way, I want the strength of this space magic. "

Everyone stepped aside, Lu Heng released the source energy, and slashed a crack sword light at the barrier of the space restriction.

The crack sword light slashed into the space restriction, and the space twisted and shattered, revealing a crack.

But this crack was not big, and the space orb above his head began to rotate, releasing circles of arcane energy, and in the blink of an eye, the gap opened by the crack was healed as before.

When Lu Heng saw this scene, his brows immediately frowned.

Although the crack slash could break this space restriction, the crack was too small.

What's more troublesome is that this space orb can repair the barrier of the restriction.

Seeing this scene, Lu Heng's first thought was to use up the energy of the space orb through multiple crack slashes.

However, this idea only flashed through his mind and was thrown away.

Because when the space orb was rotating just now, arcane energy flowed out from the dome of the magic hall and merged into the space orb.

In other words, the entire magic tower is supplying energy to the space orb.

If one person's power wants to compete with a magic tower, even if he runs out of energy, he can't consume half of the energy of the magic tower.

In addition to Lu Heng and the other two, Fiona and her two assistants are also trapped in the space restriction.

Su Muyu and Lin Zeyu have no space ability and have no way to deal with the space restriction.

So, Lu Heng can only look at Fiona and ask, "Is there any way to break the space restriction?"

Fiona shook her head and replied, "It's useless. This is not just the magic released by a space orb. We are trapped by the magic tower. Except for Augustus, no one in the Quel'dorei world can break this space magic."

Lu Heng frowned and asked, "What should we do? Just wait here?"

In fact, for human psychics, being trapped here is not particularly bad.

If the time is delayed for 30 days at most, you can return to the main world.

The loss is just that you cannot complete the challenge task and lose a sum of divine energy.

It is different for the elves. Augustus' betrayal of Quel'dorei will bring a huge crisis, and it may even be a crisis of genocide.

Therefore, Fiona is more anxious than Lu Heng, but she knows the magic tower too well and knows that with her ability, she can't break through this layer of restriction.

...

As the energy of the magic tower is not exhausted, Lu Heng doesn't want to give up, so after the source energy is fully restored, he uses the rift slash again.

A sword splits the space restriction, leaving a two-meter-long sword mark, but the width is only three fingers wide, and it is impossible to rush out through this crack.

Lu Heng took out an ordinary D-level weapon and inserted it into this space crack.

As the space orb rotates, the crack of the space restriction slowly closes, cutting the D-level weapon into two pieces, and the tip of the sword falls outside the restriction.

"It seems that nothing can be released." Seeing this, Lu Heng began to think about ways to get out.

When the source energy was restored for the second time, he slashed out the crack sword again.

The moment the crack appeared in the space restriction, Su Muyu released the Chongming Bird and flew out through the crack.

However, when the space restriction was healed and the connection in space was cut off, the Chongming Bird was disconnected and fell to the ground.

The energy of the Chongming Bird did not dissipate, but no matter how hard Su Muyu tried, he couldn't make the Chongming Bird move.

Su Muyu frowned and thought for a long time, and said: "Try again, I'll try to see if the life vine can work."

The two tried again and again, and when the source energy was fully restored, they swung out a sword, split the space restriction, and then tried to send out various skills and props.

However, after trying many times, no matter what props it was, when the space restriction was healed, it would be cut into two parts by space.

The only thing that was a little different was the life vine.

Su Muyu condensed the life vine into seeds and threw them out of the restriction. The life vine seeds would germinate and then grow into life vines.

The life vines were entangled on the magic tower and kept growing.

Every time Lu Heng broke the restriction, Su Muyu released the source energy of the life vines to make the life vines grow continuously.

I don't know how many times it was repeated, and the life vines climbed all over the top of the magic tower.

"If someone can see the life vines, they might find us." Su Muyu could only think of this method.

Although it was a bit passive, it was the only way.

As the life vines grew more and more luxuriantly, after a day and a night, the entire magic tower changed from the original bright blue to emerald green, and the tower was covered with life vines.

Half a day ago, the Elf Guards discovered the life vines on the magic tower, but ordinary elf guards had no right to enter the magic tower.

The Elf Guards could only report this situation, but now Queen Oriana went to the Moon God Lake, the Great Archmage Augustus could not be found, and General Fiona was also missing.

A large number of blood demons appeared outside Kolos City, causing the Elf King City to fall into chaos and panic.

After a day and a night, Eric, the captain of the Elf Guard, finally broke through the interception of the blood demons and returned to Kolos City.

He first looked for Fiona in the city, but couldn't find her, and finally climbed the magic tower.

Fiona saw Eric appear and saw the blood on his armor, and hurriedly asked: "What happened in the city?"

Eric wiped the blood on his chest armor and explained: "The Abyss Summoner opened the portal, and a large number of blood demons poured in. The city guards have closed the city gates for defense. The blood demons can't break through the city for the time being, but the situation is very critical."

Fiona punched the space restriction and said: "Quick! Quickly unlock the restriction and let us out!"

Eric tried many ways, but his arcane talent was very ordinary, he knew very little magic, and there was no way to break the restriction set by the great arcanist.

He ran out and called a team of arcanists, and tried various methods, but still couldn't break it.

Fiona hurriedly asked: "Where is Augustus? Where is Augustus now?"

Eric looked a little surprised, because Fiona called Augustus by his name, and didn't add the word "sir", which seemed a little disrespectful.

"I don't know. The Elf Guards were also looking for Lord Augustus, but they couldn't find him. The Queen is not in the city, and General Elrondo and General Keldrin are also on missions outside. There are only a few captains commanding the guards now. Resist the blood demon." Eric's tone was also a bit urgent.

Fiona looked at the arcanists who were casting spells and asked, "How long will it take? How long will it take to open the restriction?"

The arcanists had helpless expressions on their faces: "This is a restriction imposed by the magic tower. There is nothing we can do."

Fiona knew that now was not the time to lose her temper, so she endured the anger in her heart and quickly thought of countermeasures.

Lu Heng reminded: "Now we need to call back the elf elders who can control the situation. Augustus may be conducting a transformation ceremony. Serien or Tyrese, whoever it is, call one back first to take charge of the overall situation. Only Only they have the ability to break this space restriction.”

Fiona nodded in agreement and said loudly: "Quick! Send a message to Seren and Tyrese, saying that the situation in Kolos is critical and they need rescue."

"Yes, I'm going to send the message right away." Eric hurried out and arranged for the arcanist to use magic to send the message.

…

As the Vampire clan's portal opened, a large number of Vampire demons poured into the world of Quel'dorei.

The city of Kolos closed its gates to defend itself against the attack of blood demons.

Fortunately, the city of Koros is a majestic city built by the elves over thousands of years. It has strong defenses. Even if there are no elders in the city, it can still block the attack of the blood demons.

Time passed by minute by minute.

Another half day passed.

A sword light appeared, repelling the blood demon army.

Later, Tyrese climbed to the top of the magic tower and saw several people trapped in the space restriction, with puzzled expressions on their faces.

"What's going on?"

Lu Heng was worried that he and Augustus were in the same group, so he said directly without explanation: "Quickly lift the restrictions and let us out."

Tyrese narrowed his eyes slightly and said, "Wait a minute, what did you do? You will be trapped here."

Lu Heng was immediately angry: "I want to say what do you want to do? Do you also want to betray the elves?"

Tyrese's eyes turned cold and he snorted: "What nonsense are you talking about? You didn't come in to rob treasures and were trapped, right? You took advantage of the blood demons to attack Koros City and then robbed them."

Since the last batch of human teams recruited included a raiding team, it was difficult for the elves not to think in this direction.

Lu Heng pointed at Fiona next to him with a straight face and said, "So is she also here to rob?"

Tyrese was also confused and asked: "Fiona, what's going on?"

Fiona didn't want to say anything about Augustus' betrayal, and she was unwilling to accept it in her heart.

Lu Heng had no choice but to say for her: "Augustus has betrayed you. If you are not on the same side as him, quickly open the restrictions!"

Tyrese looked stunned and refuted loudly: "What nonsense are you talking about!"

Lu Heng's eyes darkened and asked: "Ten days ago, when you destroyed Dionysus' phylactery, didn't you just want to keep Augustus a secret? The suppression was so obvious, how dare you say you didn't know?"

When Tyrese heard this question, his expression was stunned, he scratched his scalp with his hands, and asked: "What on earth do you want to do? Augustus is the greatest arcanist in Quel'dorei."

Lu Heng didn't want to continue talking nonsense to him, so he asked, "Let me ask you, do you know Augustus's secret? The secret that can ruin his reputation."

Tyrese's expression darkened and he yelled angrily: "This is not something you, a human, should interfere with!"

Lu Heng immediately pushed back: "Yes, I shouldn't interfere. Then you just wait until Augustus transforms into a lich and destroys the city of Koros."

Tyrese's expression was stunned, and his eyes were full of doubts: "What do you mean? Augustus is going to transform into a lich?"

"Are you still pretending not to know? The secret that Dionysus wanted to say, the secret that you silenced, is that Augustus is about to transform into a lich. We have all seen his phylactery."

Now that the matter has reached this point, Lu Heng simply reveals all the secrets.

Tyrese looked at Fiona with disbelief on his face and asked, "Is what he said true?"

Fiona lowered her head in sorrow, and then nodded.

Tyrese felt like a bomb exploded in his head, and he was stunned: "How is this possible!"

Lu Heng snorted coldly: "Are you really not aware or are you pretending not to know?"

With Tyrese's identity, there is no need to act to this extent.

If he was really working with Augustus, he could directly take action and kill everyone here.

Tyrese's head was buzzing after digesting this astonishing information.

"I didn't know that Augustus was going to transform into a lich. Regardless of whether what you said is true or not, I will release you first and find Augustus."

As he spoke, he broke the hub of the magic tower with a sword and cut off the supply of magic energy.

Without the energy of the magic tower, the restriction formed by the space orb was quickly broken.

The space orb fell from mid-air. Lu Heng reached out to catch it and quickly took a look at its attributes.

[Space Confinement Orb]

[Item level: S level]

[Specifications: diameter 20 cm, weight 1.6 kg]

[Attribute: Spirit +10]

[Special Effect: Energy Increase]

[Divine Skill: Space Confinement]

[Space Confinement: Releases a spherical space confinement with a radius of 10 meters, confining all targets in the area. The space inside the confinement is isolated from the outside world, and the target cannot use any teleportation or space-related skills to escape the confinement until the confinement is lifted by external forces or reaches the upper limit of the duration. ]

[Evaluation: This ancient gem contains a deep and mysterious power of space, and a pale blue light flows on its surface, as if it can see through and distort the cracks in time and space. The power it contains has gone through countless years and still emits heart-pounding energy fluctuations. ]

Before Augustus took action, he said that this [Space Confinement Orb] was used to exchange for the [Magic Secret Book of the Great Arcanist].

They are all S-level treasures, so it is not a loss if they are exchanged.

I'm just not sure if what Augustus said still counts.

Lu Heng didn't care so much, so he put it away first, and then walked out of the magic tower with Tyrese and Fiona, trying to find a way to solve the crisis facing the elves.
