Chapter 243: Between Joy and Sorrow

Rhodes had already said that he couldn't actually block Karthas's teleportation - Karthas's teleportation was extremely fast, and a mage like Rhodes who could only space anchors couldn't lock Karthas at all.

But...... Nothing is absolute, as long as Karthas himself is cooperative, everything is possible.

For example, the space blockade just now - although it looks dazzling, it actually depends on Karthas's cooperation.

Not to mention anything else, just the spell itself - Rhodes had just recited the incantation for almost three minutes, and Calthas only had to teleport out of this guard hall during this time, and Rhodes would recite it in vain.

It's like Rhodes has a wide range of control skills, but it takes three minutes to cast the spell, and the target leaves within three minutes and the cast fails, do you think this skill is useful?

This is the stupidest method of space blockade, and Rhodes has elementalized the entire space around the Arcane Dungeon Guard Hall, which normally no mage would do.

But because of Morde Caesar, Karthus couldn't do without, so this skill that seemed stupid to explode took effect!

Karthas really didn't leave here for a full three minutes.

Even better, in the final moments of the spell, Hammerstone actually rushed in - now all the targets are collected.

……………………

Rod's tone was full of anger—but Hammerstone was angrier than Rod.

Originally, Karthas swore that "with the protection of the Immortal Fortress, the two of us can completely fight the opposite five, and you can control the illusion aura." ”

At that time, Hammerstone really believed.

So Hammerstone single-mindedly controlled the illusion-creating aura there, giving the task of frontal blocking to Karthas.

The result?

Single-mindedly playing auxiliary, but betrayed by Karthas - that thing is not good (?) Just slipped away!

That's right, slipped!

Karthas left Hammerstone alone to face Jinx, Lucian, and Jana, leaving Hammerstone almost dead after a brief moment of stunnedness.

Nima...... What about the pit daddy!

Fortunately, everyone is not a decent gentleman, and Hammerstone still has a little back - since the Arcane Vault has been attacked, the line of defense in front of the Arcane Vault has been abandoned, so Hammerstone also left the Immortal Fortress as soon as possible.

As for how to get to the Arcane Vault, it depends on his test subjects.

In the legacy of Fuguang Island, there is no shortage of space magic props, these props are simple and practical, but they tend to consume a lot when they are used.

After all, teleportation, the farther you teleport, the greater the energy consumed - don't look at Rhodes teleporting at every turn, that's just because he teleports at a limited distance, and he has positioning coordinates.

Those rings are not just a numerical marker for the test subject, but also a very clever magic item - in these rings, the holder of the total ring (number 1) can freely appear next to any of the ring-holders, and the summoned mana is provided by the ring-wielding person.

Hammerstone's magical talent was destined to be such a detriment that he couldn't afford it many times - and the subject couldn't bear it, but it didn't matter, the subject could still divert his life.

For hundreds of years, Hammerstone spent most of his time researching a topic, "how to activate magic items without enough mana", except for occasional forbidden experiments and a trip to Bilgewater on the night of the Soul Eclipse.

Hammerstone believes that as long as he studies this problem clearly, the future is absolutely limitless - the magic heritage of the entire Fuguang Island can be used by which one he wants, and who can still fight?

However, this task is more difficult than you can imagine.

This isn't League of Legends, it's Valoran - there's no such thing as a good thing that you can increase your mana limit with a blue crystal, and the research on hammerstone is extremely slow.

Although there seem to be a lot of boss-level bosses on Shadow Island, if we count them, we can find that there are no research talents at all.

Maudekaiser is a warrior who knows how to spell, Karthas is a typical halfway monk, Hekarim has focused on charging for two hundred years, and Hammerstone has focused his skills on torture......

In the past, there were still two research talents in the Shadow Island.

For example, she briefly served as LaBlanc under Maude Caesar - after the Curse of the Ruined King, LeBlanc once came to the Isle of Shadows, but in the end she refused Morde Caesar's second invitation and refused to become an undead.

LeBlanc knew very well that Mordecaesar's basic plate was the undead, and as long as she didn't want to be an undead, she would never walk with Mordecaesar.

In this case, the scientific research capabilities of Shadow Island itself can only be described as hehe.

With his scientific research ability, he wants to find a way to use more mana props than he has...... How easy is it to say?!

However, it can be regarded as the emperor's wish, and after hundreds of years of headless fly-like exploration, Hammerstone has really found a way.

To put it simply, it means that the mana is not enough, and life is made up.

As a result, a new problem arose - as undead, whether it is Mordecaesar or Hammerstone, they have no vitality.

What to do?

Faced with a new problem, Hecarim quit; Karthas changed his mind and wanted to go the right way; Mordecaesar began to control creatures with strong life force; Hammerstone, on the other hand, has embarked on the path of distorting new life for its own use.

Rhodes was only partially right about his subject's guesses.

These subjects were designed to satisfy Hammerstone's sadistic desires, but they were also Hammerstone's casting tools, and over the course of hundreds of years, Hammerstone had identified all of the "forced spellcasting" tools on Shadow Island, and then researched how they could be used "at the cost of life".

In this way, Hammerstone only needs to control some of its own "flesh and blood batteries" to freely use a lot of the heritage of Fuguang Island, isn't it beautiful?

Here's an example.

Mondo was originally used as an experiment on Hammerstone, but it was simply and rudely infused with the essence of primordial magic, and then thrown to Zaun - if Mondo can grow smoothly enough to bear the long-distance teleportation, it means that Hammerstone can teleport to Zaun at any time, and in doing so, it comes at the cost of losing Mondo's vitality.

Isn't it great?

Unfortunately, Mondo died at the hands of Rhodes.

Just now, Hammerstone, realizing that something was wrong, activated Subject 4395, which was guarding the arcane basement, and summoned himself at the cost of his life force, avoiding the angry and almost rampaging Lucian.

But...... Now it seems that this is not much of a good choice.

After arriving in the guard hall of the Arcane dungeon, Hammerstone needs to face a rampaging Rhodes and a Yorick who has entered funeral mode.
