Chapter 376: The Trial of Illusion
This totem statue has quirkiness!
It was nothing else that had just shattered, it was Rod's anti-personality mask - just when Rod saw the statue and tried to understand it and figure out its meaning, Rhodes had fallen into the trap of the statue.
If it weren't for the help of the mask, one of Rod's substantial personality traits would have been shattered by now.
Considering the fate of those mages, Rhodes guessed that the personality traits of this statue's defeat were likely to be sanity!
After closing his eyes, Rod broke out in a cold sweat.
This trap can be said to be very unexpected, just such a lonely totem statue is placed here, not talking about the problem of concealment at all.
And it's because it's there – can you not look at it?
Even if you don't pay attention, can you guarantee that you can't see it?
No.
And as long as they see it, they will look at it, and then they will be attracted, and finally the personality will be destroyed.
A typical curiosity-style illusion trap.
Curiosity is natural and almost irrepressible – people habitually open their eyes when they are awake, and when they open their eyes, you get information.
You can not step on the trap that has been laid out, but it is hard not to look at such a thing that is there.
After closing his eyes, Rhodes took a few deep breaths and finally calmed himself.
Obviously, the traps on this island are not trigger traps in the conventional sense, and this illusion-like thing reminds Rhodes of the mages who are good at illusion - these mage towers are even more troublesome than Antonidas's mage towers, and as long as you get into them, whether you are an apprentice mage or an archmagister, the difficulty of the challenge is no different.
Of course, Illusioner's mage towers often have a fatal flaw - they can be easily breached from the outside.
So in Dalaran, many illusionists dressed their mage towers exactly like Antonidas......
How can we break through the test of illusion?
Rhodes had been trained in a specialty, but alas, he was sleeping during class.
Of course, this doesn't mean that Rhodes can't do anything about it - since the five senses in the conventional sense are easily affected, can he do it another way?
For example...... Turning into a fire?
In the next moment, Rhodes rose directly on the spot, turning himself into a flowing Saffron flame - although the perception after the rise was also "seeing", it was in a state of energy perception, so it was difficult for illusions in the conventional sense to take effect.
After "looking" at the totem statue again, sure enough, the situation was very different.
What kind of totem statue is there, it's clearly an illusion trap!
This extremely clever illusion trap Rod can't be cracked at all, so after recognizing the facts, he can only choose to take a detour!
Can't be provoked, can't be provoked - slipped......
Then, as Rhodes progresses deeper into the island, he sees a number of totem statues one after another, and these totem statues are all illusion traps without exception.
Some of these illusion traps are sight, some are hearing, some are tactile, and some are even taste......
Rhodes could only say that he was eye-opening for these strange totemic statues - illusion had always been a subject that was not taken seriously in Dalaran, and there was not a single mage in the Council of Six who were good at it.
And the main reason for this is...... The best illusionist is not in Dalaran.
Where?
In the midst of being sealed, of course......
In Azeroth, the most powerful illusionists are undoubtedly the Elder Gods, these Void Lords' henchmen not only create first-class creatures and pollution, but also create illusions and twist wills, as powerful as deathwings, or have they fallen into madness under the fragmentation of Enzos?
And Rod, who has withstood the test of the ancient gods, naturally has a natural advantage in the resistance of illusion and mind magic - although he himself does not know illusion, but he is better at resisting illusion, except for when he first went to the island because of habitual thinking, the rest of the road is very smooth.
Soon, Rhodes was in a small village.
After confirming that there was no energy reaction around him, Rhodes finally canceled his ascension - to be on the safe side, he created an anti-personality mask again, put it on his face, and then sneaked into the village lightly.
……………………
It is a rather primitive village.
Most of the houses here are very low and primitive, and many of them are supported by simple tree branches, and the plant stems and leaves are woven into the roof.
But in the middle of the village, Rhodes saw a tall building unlike any other.
It is a stone building with a height of more than 10 meters (three floors) and stands out from the crowd of low-rise houses.
For the sake of caution, after confirming that there was no one around, Rod turned on the ascending state again, and after deliberately confirming that there was no energy reaction there, he looked at it from a distance.
And then...... Rhodes felt more familiar the more he looked at it.
This kind of building, Rhodes always felt that he had seen it somewhere!
Where?
In Birgewater, the temple of Naga Kapolos in front of the Flame Tide!
Rhodes subconsciously moved closer, and then finally confirmed that this was indeed the temple of Naga Kapolos!
Sure enough, this place is indeed the lair of Naga Kapolos, as the rumors say!
Rod secretly clenched his fists.
Previously, in the Wave of Fire, he was able to defeat Aloy and expel the faith of Naga Kapoulos by sending Sarah to destroy the temple of Naga Kapolos so that he could not come with the help of his own prior arrangement, and now, he has once again found the temple of Naga Kapolos on the Python Islands......
Does it mean that as long as you destroy the temple on the Python Islands, it will be difficult for Naga Kapoulos to descend on the Python Islands in the future?
The opportunity is here!
Rod narrowed his eyes slightly, and finally began to look at his surroundings.
The previous totem statue was apparently the work of a master illusionist, who was most likely on the island.
An illusion master hiding in the shadows is too difficult to deal with, and if he rashly exposes himself, he is likely to face the illusion master's endless illusion traps.
Although Rhodes prides himself on being good at fighting illusions, in this case, if he misses once, everything is over - so Rhodes must be cautious enough.
What to do?
Just as Rhodes was thinking, the doors of the temple opened, and a large number of people poured out of the temple.
Seeing this, Rhodes hid himself for the first time, and then quietly sneaked into a room that didn't look so dilapidated.
Listen to what the people here have to say!
