Chapter 792: Handed
"Whoever plays the undead is crazy!"
Lin An couldn't help but sigh, then raised his hand to cast a spell, and began to test to confirm whether there were any traps or forbidden magic circles nearby.
At first, Lin An didn't dare to cast the magic directly, but the protection near the sea mussel was a little unexpectedly simple, and after a few white, blue, and red spell flashes, Lin An directly lifted the protection set by the undead archmage on the periphery.
"These protections should be used to prevent marine life from entering by mistake...... But it's too simple, and the more this happens, the more it feels like the real trap is still to come. ”
Lin An muttered secretly, looking at the sea mussel like an onion that has been peeled layer by layer, slowly revealing his true face, but his expression was hesitant.
Eventually, she made her way to the entrance of the sea mussel.
Even the Necromancer Archmage himself was killed, so didn't he dare to touch what he left behind?
What's more, this is obviously what the Necromancer Archmage wants to give to the latecomers to take revenge on the Holy See, so it shouldn't be too difficult to get it.
The huge mussel shell was only slightly opened, but the gap was enough for one person to enter directly, in the sea water, it was impossible for Lin An to release the underwater breathing, no matter how much he disguised the spell fluctuations, I am afraid that he would not be able to hide himself in the body of the sea mussel, so he simply did not hide it and entered directly.
The inside of the clam shell was dark, and Lin placed a light technique, but found that including the released ball of light, the qiē inside the clam shell was still invisible.
"It seems to be constantly visually blocked."
Thinking that when he was outside before, although there was a strong negative energy, he could still vaguely see the patterns of the magic circle engraved on the inside of the clam shell, Lin Anxin concluded.
But the inability to see has never been a problem for Lin An, and his spiritual power spreads like countless tentacles, and the surrounding fluctuations are all in his heart.
The biggest fluctuations come from the location in the center of the mussel shell, which is also where the negative energy is most intense.
To Lin An's surprise, there was no abnormal fluctuation inside the clam shell, let alone hidden traps or anything like that, except for a few layers of protection on the outside, the thing was placed naked in the middle of the clam shell.
Holding back the rejection in his heart, Lin An walked towards the middle of the clam shell, and his spiritual power "saw" the true face of that thing:
It was a huge pearl, about three feet in diameter, covered with complex magic patterns, and Lin An could clearly perceive the fluctuations emitted by the exchange of energy and reciprocating cycles with the magic circle engraved in the mussel shell.
But this big pearl is only the core of the transformation of the half-undead magic circle, the real magic circle includes all the magic circles engraved on the inside of the clam shell, if the pearl is taken from here, I am afraid that this pearl will no longer have such a huge radiation range and transformation effect.
But that's exactly what Lin An wants:
What she just got here was just the principle of transforming the undead circle that the undead archmage had studied, as the core of this great circle, this pearl was undoubtedly the master, and it was more than enough to bring it back as a sample study, and it was more than enough to take this sea mussel out and transform the people of the entire city into undead, which she didn't need.
After all, compared to this near-peak half-undead transformation array, the ice field's transformation of the undead arrays was only half-finished, and Lin An didn't hope to completely understand the undead archmage's life's work, and it was enough to figure out the half-finished principle and find a way to reverse it.
"Shenwen. Seal! ”
The golden divine light shrouded the surface of the pearl, and as soon as it was touched, it was immediately bounced away.
Lin An was not surprised, enhanced the input of divine power, and at the same time grabbed a handful of seeds, which were broken one by one and flowed into his body.
The magic pattern on the surface of the pearl appeared, confronting the golden light, and the divine power on Lin An's body was like water dripping into an oil pot, suddenly making the thick negative energy inside the sea mussel boil, and it rushed to the core source of the confrontation between the two opposing attributes of the power one after another.
Lin An's expression did not change at all, and the protective ring around her body and the rich power of nature were like two most reliable protective layers, completely isolating the negative energy from her.
On the contrary, all kinds of terrifying and ghostly images appeared in Lin An's mind, as if there was a vision, one moment a pale and evil resentful spirit rushed to his face, and the next he saw himself become a half-undead with half of his body wrapped in bone shells and festering flesh and blood.
But this kind of effect, which even the three-pole fear technique could not achieve, naturally could not shake Lin An.
In the absence of the caster's manipulation, this is only the result of the evil aura emitted by the pearl itself, which is entirely composed of negative energy materialization.
However, on the other hand, the evil aura automatically released by this big pearl of negative energy crystallization itself was enough to cause a powerhouse of Lin An's level to have an effect close to the three-pole fear technique, which was already terrifying.
If this pearl is taken out, even if it can't be studied, simply using it as a spell amplifier is enough for all mages who study necromantic spells to fight for it at the cost of their lives!
Of course, this is just a thought, and if you really want to use it as a spell amplifier, it's a tyrannical thing.
Its true value lies in the lifelong research results that the Necromantic Archmage has shown, and the knowledge contained in it is what mages dream of, and a truly intelligent mage will never do anything to return the pearl.
Many thoughts just turned in his mind for a moment, and Lin Antong guò checked the evil aura that the pearl automatically emitted, and the golden light released by the divine technique suddenly became great, and quickly overwhelmed the evil black light on the surface of the pearl.
The magic patterns floating on the surface of the pearl were pressed back, and Lin An felt the strong unwillingness of the pearl - or the sea mussel - in his spirit, as the carrier chosen by the undead archmage, it was destined to have such a day, but the survival instinct of the creature was not willing to accept this fate.
Compared with the previous test of evil aura, this kind of consciousness in the survival instinct can sometimes shake people's determination even more.
But Lin An came to the place of death this time, the most important goal was it, although he pitied the fate of the sea mussel in his heart, his will did not waver in the slightest, and he suddenly increased the power delivery, and a ray of golden light was imprinted with it.
The pearl black mangs were great, and then they dimmed.
The golden seal divine text covered the surface of the pearl, like countless golden tadpoles flowing on it, and the magic circle engraved on the inside of the mussel shell lost contact with the pearl, and the negative energy in the mussel shell became more and more chaotic.
The visual shield lost its effect, and Lin An put the sealed pearl into the space, which caused a chain reaction:
The next second the pearl entered the space, there was a shock in the seawater, and Lin An seemed to hear an indescribable howl!
Originally, pearls were not part of the sea mussels, and there was nothing to lose them, but after being transformed into a semi-undead, the pearls had already become the energy core of the sea mussels, and the sea mussels that lost their pearls were like people whose hearts were gouged out, and they would soon die.
Realizing that the mussel seemed to be planning to return to the light before it died, Lin An quickly swam towards the exit of the mussel, and finally left the inside of the mussel shell for a moment before the mussel shell was completely closed.
"It's a pity that I don't have time to memorize and copy those magic circles engraved on the inside of the clam shell, otherwise it would be good to use them as a reference for research."
Lin An's secret regret didn't last long, and when she left Coral Rock, she understood the meaning of the wail she heard earlier.
Outside the coral rock, it was like a hornet's nest, countless half-undead sea fish frantically stirred the sea water, and as soon as Lin An appeared, the half-undead sea fish in the vicinity immediately discovered her, these half-undead seemed to be able to communicate in an unknown way, and then those crazy half-undead sea creatures in the distance also aimed at Lin An.
Although he didn't expect that the sea mussel had the ability to command the half-undead sea fish in advance, since he dared to go deep into the coral rock, Lin An was already ready to be blocked and besieged, and he was surprised but not panicked when he saw this, and several healing magic techniques repelled the semi-undead sea fish in the vicinity, and he quickly surfaced to the sea.
In the process of ascending, there were still countless half-undead sea creatures catching up without fear of life and death, Lin An took a fancy to one of the big nautilus with long spines, and the magic technique released deliberately let it go, letting it chase below, getting closer and closer.
The sea was already boiling.
Lin An deliberately indulged those half-undead sea creatures to get closer, and when she was still three or four feet away from the island, she suddenly burst out with the strongest blow, and the spreading divine golden light swept away the sea creatures, and the sea creatures that attacked her frantically died in an instant, including the soft body of the nautilus hidden in the snail shell closest to her.
The corpse of the dead sea creature blocked the sea creatures farther away outside, Lin An got into the nautilus, constricting the magic breath, the magic breath of underwater breathing was blocked by the nautilus shell, and the semi-undead sea creatures on the periphery gradually lost their perception of Lin An.
Without a common enemy, and with the addition of the mussel's energy core, the half-undead sea creatures began to kill each other.
Lin An pushed the nautilus to float slowly, and before leaving the seawater, she lifted the spell of underwater breathing, and the seawater containing negative energy surrounded her coldly and piercingly.
Leaving the sea and making sure that the world above was not alarmed by the movement below the surface of the sea, Lin An breathed a sigh of relief.
The place of death is mysterious and abnormal, that is, under the sea, she dares to use divine magic, and on the sea, she would rather run away than use divine magic to alarm the undead here, otherwise God knows if it will be a dragon soul or something else terrifying.
After returning to the shore, the robe dried automatically, and Lin An performed a cleaning and drying technique, barely eliminating some of the bone-chilling cold.
This stretch of coast was some distance from the beach where they had landed, and Lin An quickly returned to the intended location.
By the time she arrived, Sidney, Titi, and the skeleton were already there.
Sidney didn't seem to have changed, but Lin An could feel his excitement from his slightly flickering eyes.
Titi was also in good spirits, the black spars on her armor and sword were restored again, and the spars that she had absorbed in the Necromancer's Castle had all been consumed in the battle with Remus, making it impossible for the previous heavy injuries to recover by absorbing a large amount of soul power, and now they had finally fully eased up.
Lin An was very satisfied, and the other reason why she insisted on coming to the place of death was also because of Titi's injury.
As for the bones, Lin An couldn't see his changes at all, and only felt two cold gazes shooting over, suspicious and cold.
Lin An looked back coldly.
