Chapter 117: The Family That Died in the Flames

The fire raged in the Fourth Family's official residence and the surrounding areas, and the Star Zero Family, which held the power of psychic powers, disappeared.

However, the victors did not gain anything, not only did they not get the spoils of victory from the loser's side to make up for the losses in the battle, but even the vast majority of the invaders became the victims of the destruction of the Star Zero family.

The fire started suddenly and spread very quickly...... But these are not the root causes that make it difficult for the intruders who have stormed the Star Zero Family's official residence to escape. Instead, after the fire broke out, the remaining soldiers of the Star Zero Family took the initiative to attack and entangle their opponents regardless of life and death, while the psychic warlocks manipulated the flames to accelerate the expansion of the fire, blocking everyone, including their own retreat.

It's a trap! A death layout laid down early by the Xingling family, who would rather be broken than broken, and determined to put the intruders to death, making them the burial objects of the family's destruction!

In the end, very few people were able to escape the fire.

I saw the elite soldiers of the first family chaotic formation, like ants that have blown up their nests, rushing towards the gate of the official mansion without a head, the blades in their hands slashing wildly, killing their colleagues who were still fighting side by side, but at the moment they became obstacles on the way to escape, and finally rushed out of the gate only to see the burning mushroom forest outside the official residence, and fell in despair in the flames.

I saw the lizard cavalry driving the mount, but the lizard was blinded by the bright light of the fire everywhere, lost its direction, and rushed into the fire in a panic.

I saw that the mages were panicking, and finally succeeded in casting the "Protective Flame Damage" that can resist fire damage, or the "Fire Shield" that lasts for a short time, but is completely immune to fire damage, but because they got in the way, they were pushed to the ground by the soldiers who had protected them in the chaos and trampled into meat sauce. The smarter mages use "flying arts" to try to fly away from the fire, but the so-called gun shot the first bird, which happens to be the target of the desperate defenders, or even the desperate own soldiers. Smarter mages will memorize a "vaporized form" in the spell slot, which will incarnate into a vaporized state that is not subject to normal damage and is also not affected by ordinary fire, but unfortunately the vaporized state is not affected by ordinary damage and can even fly, but can only move at a turtle speed, and at this time, the soldiers around him who are crazy because of despair have no shortage of magic weapons that can cut him to pieces. Only a handful of high-level mages who can cast "Any Gate" or "Teleportation" will be able to escape.

As for the Priests, although only the low-level Priests will accompany them, even the Priests of Level 1 can release "Endure Fire Damage", and the more advanced ones can also release "Resist Fire Damage" or "Protect against Fire Damage", and because their job is to clean up after the battle, they are in a lower position, but most of them are withdrawn from the fire.

I returned to my bedroom safe and sound.

The Flame Seal on the body is immune, although it is not immune to the damage caused by magic flames like the "Flame Shield" spell, but it is still immune to ordinary flames, and it takes effect permanently.

The ordinary flames that burn around me are just warm to me. Regardless of the wind and fire, it is better than a leisurely stroll...... But he almost choked to death by smoke without face. Fortunately, choking on smoke is not an attack, and it does not cause the stealth to fail, and the running speed of escaping the fire with all his strength after adding the "speed burst" psionic energy is no slower than that of riding a lizard.

The psionic items I obtained could not be identified by the mage's "identification technique", and I was the only one who explored it myself. Luckily, my psionic knowledge is quite high, and I can slowly explore it, which is another way to identify items. However, this method of identification is highly dependent on relevant knowledge and takes a long time.

First of all, the crystal shield that was taken off on the long broken arm of the Emmerika martial arts, and after checking it for a long time, it was found that it was a high-level fixed life shield. It creates a psychic field that effectively protects the wearer's vital points. When the wearer is hit or sneak attacked, the damage caused by the hit or sneak attack is fully negated and only the normal damage is taken...... This stuff seems good.

A multi-faceted crystal with a white light in the center, like a talisman, is called the Psychic Attack Spirit Cone, and the wearer will have a slight increase in the success rate of using any of the psychic attack modes.

I was able to obtain a total of four crystal rings worn by the master of the Emmelica Martial Arts and the psychic warlock Akdina, and I was disappointed to find that they were two Stability Rings and two Complacency Rings. The Stability Ring increases the wearer's "Self-Stabilization" skill by level 10. The Complacency Ring increases the wearer's "Self-Hypnosis" skill by 10...... It's a waste compared to the magic ring I'm wearing! It seems that psychic abilities are not a good fit for rings.

Two pairs of boots, one for gliding, allow the wearer to glide on the ground as if they were using the "glide" ability. One pair is the Stomping Boots, and the wearer can fan the "Stomping" ability three times a day, causing the opponent to take minor damage and make them more likely to fall.

What appears to be a small crystal with a wide and flat side is the "Focus Eye", which increases the wearer's "Focus" skill by 10.

A few main crystals and two or three small crystals worn on the silver thread, like fine jewelry, can hold 17 psionic points of high-grade crystal Spiritual Appearance, although the spiritual energy points inside are exhausted, but as long as they are recharged, the spiritual energy points will remain in the spiritual appearance until they are used. One of them is unique, exuding a rainbow-colored aura that can regenerate 5 psionic points a day even if it doesn't infuse psionic points.

But that beautiful handkerchief folded in Akdina's fanny pack...... No, in fact, when the thing that looked like a handkerchief was unfolded, it was actually a cloth ring with a round hole in the middle, and the texture was a bit like silk...... The problem is, I looked at it over and over again, and psionic knowledge didn't give me any hints!

It's irritating that this ring looks extraordinary, but it can't be identified! But what is even more disturbing is to learn the news of the follow-up to the fall of the original Fourth Family.

The fire raged on the official residence of the original Fourth Family, and the whole cycle of Shizhu, that is, a whole day and night, and all that was left was ruins.

This is because fuel has long been buried around the official residence, and when the battle is at a disadvantage and there is no way to return to the sky, the fuel will be released and poured into the cover-up, connecting with each other throughout the official residence, and even extending to the ditches of the outer mushroom forest, and then ignited by the ignition devices in various places!

The problem is that fuel is not widely used in Demon Blade City, and is not a commodity that is stored and sold in large quantities. And the amount of fuel used to keep the fire burning for a whole day and night is not enough to collect in a short time. It is conceivable that the Xingling family has laid this huge trap all over the inside and outside of the official mansion a long time ago!

The Star Zero family had already predicted that the first family of Demon Blade City would attack them? However, the stubborn battle to the death is not the characteristic of the dark elves, even if the strength of the first family is strong and difficult to resist, can't they escape if they can't fight? Could it be ......

My heart sank! The last words of the Martial Arts Chief of Emmerika: "...... "After I found out about the fire, I always thought he was alerting me to the trap set by the Fourth Family and asking me to flee quickly.......

Don't...... Not really?
