The clock is ticking.

Although it can't be flashed, with the help of the high burst of arcane rays and the displacement of the arcane force field, Rhodes will not become an immovable turret - if you fly a kite, it is best to use flashing, and there is no other way.

As long as the frequency of the arcane rays is high enough, even if Svein wants to be reckless, he must have some scruples, after all, the power of demons can resist the erosion of time, but it cannot resist the crystallization caused by arcane rays.

For Rod, as long as his attack breaks the defense and the speed can keep up with the opponent, then he can fly a kite!

However, at this moment, as the one who was flying the kite, Svein didn't seem to have the slightest nervousness.

Although the grit in the hourglass was passing and losing its luster, Svein didn't feel any undue emotions due to the pressure of time - even though the demons were babbling about speeding up the battle, Svein himself still maintained a clear order of battle.

The demonized Svein tried his best to avoid being hit by the arcane rays, and at the same time used the giant claws made of demonic energy to capture Rhodes as much as possible, thanks to the fact that Svein's study was large enough, whether it was Rhodes using the arcane force field or Svein with the demon's wings open, there was enough space to flash and move.

Seeing that the grit in the hourglass was more than half gone, and Svein was still in the state of being kite-flyed, in this situation, Rod inevitably became a little suspicious.

What's going on?

I always feel that this guy Svein is ...... Seems to be full of confidence?

Fortunately, Rhodes is also experienced in many battles, and even if he has doubts, he will not disrupt his fighting rhythm - in the process of flying a kite in this chase, the grit in the hourglass is quickly consumed.

At the moment when the grit was consumed, Svein stopped his active attack and went into a defensive state, and in the process, Rod could clearly see that the ends of his hair were visibly white.

Svein is no longer immune to the erosion of time!

Realizing this, Rod increased the intensity of the Sandstorm of Time, and at the same time launched a counterattack against Svein - in the state of time chrysalis, Rhodes' casting speed increased significantly, and Svein, who could not continue to swim in the flow of time, finally had no time to interrupt this time.

Several successive flameburst spells came out of his hand, following the twisted space-time tunnel, and in an instant, he came to Svein's face.

In the face of Rod's attack, this time Svein seemed to have expected it, he didn't even look in the direction of Rod, but suddenly mobilized all the demonic power on his own.

The negative energy that was corrosive to the life force diffused, and almost at the same time, with a crisp "ding", Svein stood motionless.

The tarnished grit vanished from the hourglass and became a shield of golden glow that protected Svein.

The high-temperature Flame Burst had already come to Svein's face at this time, but when Svein stopped, several successive bursts of Flame Burst with terrifying energy actually passed through Svein's body, and then slammed into the wall, causing the Immortal Fortress to shake lightly a few times again.

If you change opponents, you will probably be surprised by Svein's state at this time - he is obviously there, but all his attacks are ineffective.

But as a person who has a sense of time, Rhodes clearly understands the special state of Svein at this time, and in the turbulent sand storm of time around him, Svein, who is also real and illusory, is like the calmest eye of the storm at the same time, unaffected by anything.

Almost instantly, Rhodes came to the conclusion that Svein had stripped himself of his present time!

Although the material of the grit in the hourglass is not very clear, in Rod's opinion, it should have the same effect as the sands of time, of course, from the current point of view, those gravels should be much more expensive than the sands of time.

Previously, Svein used the energy of the gravel to resist the erosion from the Temporal Sandstorm, and when the energy of the gravel was depleted, they became "beings that do not exist in this time", and Svein attached it to himself, thus temporarily stripping himself from the present time.

At this moment, although Svein with a faint golden light on his body can be seen, he is not now, and what Rhodes sees is just a phantom.

So, why did Svi bother to make such a show?

The next moment, Rhodes understood—the frost armor on his body was sizzling and corrosive, and the illumination had dimmed, and Svein had left all the demonic energy he could grasp before stripping himself from the present.

Valoran's demons are different from Azeroth in that they are not powerful creatures with evil powers, but people born from human emotions and possess all kinds of magical powers.

For example, Evelyn, who can mobilize people's primitive impulses, such as Tamu, who can take advantage of human greed, and for example, who can devour life...... Raven.

Although it seems that Svein is very good at getting along with this chattering demon, in fact, it is clear to both parties that everyone is just collaborators, Svein needs strength, and the demon needs more knowledge, and it is because of this that even Svein does not know what this demon's real name is.

But...... It didn't matter to Svein, he had his own thoughts, and he was convinced that he wouldn't become a puppet like Darkwell, and he even had some guesses about the identity of this demon - and it was for this reason that he was able to wield this dangerous demonic power like a demonic warlock.

Now, Svein, who has temporarily stripped himself from the flow of time, has thrown the question to Rhodes - what should Rhodes do in this dangerous environment?

Keep holding on and let yourself be corrupted by demonic powers, or leave Svein's study for a while?

The former is tantamount to asking for self-inflicted suffering, while the latter means that Rod has to take a step back when facing Svein.

Rhodes knew very well that although if he left first, and when Svein returned to the current flow of time, and the two of them continued to fight, the winner would definitely be himself, but ...... In this tentative encounter, leaving for a while meant that Svein had room to bargain with himself.

Unless Rhodes does his best to kill Svein directly, the Noxian Grand Commander will probably not bow to him, and in the end, the best outcome of the matter is just two people slowly arguing.

And that's not what Rhodes needs.
