Chapter Fifty-Eight: The Ruins. Turn on
There was no change in the stone gate, it was exactly the same as the last time Ye Qi entered; But about two feet in front of the stone door there was an additional cylindrical platform made of countless neatly edged stones—about five feet high, but at the top there was a platform more than four feet in diameter, plus a slightly slender base; The platform, which resembles a small fountain built for decoration in the courtyard, has to be sunk deep into the ground in order to maintain overall stability.
This is the keyhole?
Glancing at the trampled soil around the base, Ye Qi's eyes were on the platform, and in the center of this platform, there was a groove that was the same as the cube in his hand - sensing the special fluctuations that had been connected to several nodes of the ruin gate were like silk threads, Ye Qi understood that as long as he put the 'key' in his hand into it, these silk thread-like fluctuations would be like parasites sucking the energy that originally belonged to the nodes on the gate.
Nodes, items made of magic, whether they are equipment or traps, have such an existence; It belongs to the place where special energy circulates and gathers; In other words, it is an existence that resembles a puppet core; However, unlike the puppet core, as long as the core is destroyed, the latter will lose the ability to act and become a pile of scrap metal or rotten wood; But if the core of the former is blindly destroyed, then it is likely that you will be greeted by a huge explosion!
And if it's a magic trap, it's a burst of flames, acid, or freezing gas—the reason why the door in front of him makes Ye Qi, an existence with blind fighting perception, feel embarrassed, is such a characteristic; Unlike a single touch node, on the door in front of you. There are no less than five nodes of magical energy. And these five nodes must be touched in a certain way. It is possible to open the stone door, and any contact error will cause a complete failure.
As for the outcome of the failure?
The turbulent fluctuations in the ruins were enough to shatter anyone's bones, including the Solar class.
What an ingenious way!
Although Jacob's explanation had been given before, when Ye Qi really 'saw' such an opening method, he still couldn't help but admire - using the magic energy circulating at the truncated junction was already another 'core' way. Open the door; Such an approach was enough to amaze Ye Qi; At the same time, it is a great revelation for his mastery level of alchemy.
Even with the simple perception of the cube in his hand, Ye Qi was sure that it was an alchemy artifact, that is, a magical item - if possible, he should ask Jacob about the origin of this 'key assembly', and it would be better if there were drawings.
With such an idea of satisfying his curiosity, Ye Qi stretched out his thumb, index finger and middle finger to pinch the 'key' of the cube and put it towards the groove on the platform, but at this moment, Ye Qi was stunned - the puppet as a sentinel lost contact with him the moment he pinched the 'key' just now, not only those sentry puppets. Even half of the specially made puppets lost contact; And in the next moment, a very special fluctuation appeared within his blind bucket perception range.
"It's this guy!"
At the moment when Ye Qi was stunned, the tower master of the Competitive Tower, who was standing on the side, let out a low shout. Then, he immediately turned his head to look at the tunnel from which he came—
Slightly, stepping on the soft soil, the lumpy dirt was crushed, and the sound of tamped footsteps from far to near, almost a respite A figure appeared in Ye Qi's sight!
So fast!
Looking at the ordinary-looking middle-aged man in front of him in a black robe, Ye Qi did not hide it at all, and a trace of shock flashed in his eyes - you must know that the farthest place of those sentry puppets he arranged before Lu Dao was about three hundred yards away from the ruins he was in, and the ordinary-looking middle-aged man in front of him appeared here in just a few breaths, and then contacted the time when the other party solved those puppets at will, how fast was the other party?
Just such a rough estimate caused Ye Qi's right hand to involuntarily put on the hilt of the Enma Sword—so powerful that it was no match for the enemy of the head of the Inquisition!
Such a thought almost instinctively appeared in Ye Qi's heart - and the tower master of the Athletic Tower who was standing on the side involuntarily moved a step sideways, directly blocking behind Ye Qi, the sturdy old man looked up at the middle-aged man in front of him, and said in a deep voice: "Mo Lan, I didn't expect you to be moved by Yieta and participate in such a battle!" ”
Moran?!
Such an unfamiliar name appeared in Yedge's mind, and he quickly searched for anything related to it, but in the end, except for the known director of the Inquisition, Iyeta, found nothing; But Ye Qi was sure that the other party's was not simple—whether it was the speed he showed before, or the relationship with the director of the Inquisition, or the great enemy of the Competitive Tower Lord in front of him, it all told Ye Qi that this seemingly ordinary middle-aged man in front of him was not simple and powerful!
"I didn't want to be involved in your battles, nor did I want to be involved, just a little curious; Plus...... Well, even if I'm moved by Iyeta's words, then what do we need to do about it? Is it here, or is it out of the middle? After a casual pause here, the middle-aged man continued indifferently; Then he glanced at Ye Qi, who looked at him, and asked while looking, "Are you Ye Qi?" John's disciple? ”
"Yes!"
Facing the other party's inquiry, Ye Qi nodded, his tone was steady but powerful—the other party's strength was undoubted, but this did not mean that Ye Qi would be afraid; If he was afraid once he faced an existence stronger than himself, then Ye Qi would have been scared to death a long time ago.
"Oh, that's good! The Dragon of Shak, well-off, fits the title of your lineage! ”
The tone was still so casual, like the praise of an ordinary person, but the tower master of the competition was in such a compliment, his whole body tensed, and his strong muscles almost bulged into a shot put. His voice was full of warnings: "Moran. If you dare to attack Ye Qi. We're not going to die! ”
"Huh, huh?"
The middle-aged man named Moran glanced at the Athletic Tower Master as if surprised, and then shrugged his shoulders and said, "I'm just trying to satisfy my curiosity; So, let's go out and solve it! Here, it doesn't seem to be too sturdy! As he spoke, the middle-aged man pointed to the tunnel around him, which was completely fixed by wooden frames, and walked straight out.
"Follow me for a while, don't leave!"
For the first time, the Tower Master of the Athletic Tower said to Ye Qi with a solemn expression; Even. In order to worry that Ye Qi would be impulsive, he didn't forget to add: "The other party is not a simple character, and it is not an ordinary solar level existence that can resist at all!" ”
With that, the Lord of the Athletic Tower strode towards the outside of the tunnel.
Is it above the sun?!
And Ye Qi, who was following behind him, thought silently - the other party's performance, as well as the seemingly calm but actually turbulent fluctuations, like a whirlpool under the sea, made him can't help but guess; And this kind of speculation made Ye Qi's eyes narrow slightly, and a battle intent that only a truly aggressive person would understand appeared in his eyes, and it was fleeting, and it was quickly replaced by calmness again.
Existence above the Solar. For Ye Qi, from nothing to speculation. and then the affirmation, after a long time, Ye Qi has long been looking forward to what kind of strength he can have above the sun; But in Lorrant, he hadn't heard of any news of the existence above the Solar - after all, after being far away from mythology, chaos, ancient, wild, and dark ages, for the vast majority of people in the Dark World, the Solar level was already a top-notch existence; Needless to say, above the Solar, the Solar level alone is enough to make most of the said beings look up.
At this moment, Ye Qi's long-awaited opportunity appeared in front of him, and it would be an opportunity for Ye Qi to be missed-only by experiencing it first-hand can he understand the gap; And only by knowing the gap will there be more motivation and goals!
Of course, for his own safety, Ye Qi will never be impulsive, he will calmly control his behavior and get the effect he wants!
Above the Sun......
I've been looking forward to it for a long time!
The palm on the handle of the Enma Knife rubbed slightly, feeling the familiar and clear touch, and Ye Qi's whole person's breath changed-the original unconscious and scattered aura, which was instantly condensed at this moment, and the suppressed dragon power loomed on Ye Qi's body, and then began to think about the entire tunnel overflowing.
Buzz Buzz......
Slight continuous vibrations, which occur within the tunnel; Not to mention the Athletic Tower Master who walked in front of Ye Qi, even the middle-aged man named Mo Lan who had already walked out of the tunnel subconsciously turned around.
"Sure enough, he deserves to be that guy's disciple! Same performance as that guy! It's fun, it's fun, it's so much fun! ”
With such a whisper, the corners of the middle-aged man's mouth couldn't help but tilt up slightly, outlining a smile.
"I want to do it with the little guy first, don't you mind?"
Looking at the two people who came out, the middle-aged man directly changed his previous proposal, as if the tone of his voice was always so casual, as if he was just discussing the side dishes of a lunch rather than a battle between life and death.
"What do you think?"
The tall and broad figure of the Tower Master of the Athletic Tower, who was standing firmly in front of Ye Qi, blocked Ye Qi straight behind him, and replied with an unchanged face, as if he had already known what the other party wanted to say - and in fact, it was also true; When Ye Qi's fighting spirit burst out in the tunnel, Jemond knew that the person in front of him, who had never known what credit was, would have such a choice; And of course he can't do what the other party wants; This is true both before and now.
Ye Qi, as a disciple of an old friend, is a junior to him, and letting the junior be hurt is not something that Jemonde can do; Even if this junior of his own showed enough fighting spirit - in this regard, the tower master of the competitive tower from the bottom of his heart felt relieved, and he was able to burst out in front of the opposite guy, which was enough to make his junior worthy of the title of the first among his teachers and the younger generation of witchers, but it didn't mean that he would agree to the bullshit proposal of the guy opposite; After all, the gap in strength cannot be reversed by relying on the will to fight alone.
"Sure enough, it's really old-fashioned. I don't know how to be flexible at all! ”
"Hmph. If it's John standing next to me. I definitely don't mind being flexible! ”
Facing that extremely casual tone, the Tower Master of the Athletic Tower snorted coldly with disdain.
"Such an adaptation is absolutely boring!" The middle-aged man didn't have any anger after being ridiculed, he still said casually, and then waved his hand: "We, should we start now?" ”
Rumble!
This time, the Lord of the Athletic Tower did not reply, but just threw a punch, and immediately appeared in front of the ruins with a sound like an explosion - a diameter of ten feet. In this way, the three-foot-deep pit was formed at the moment when the main fist of the Tower of Athletics swept by; And the middle-aged man seemed to be lucky, standing on the edge of this big pit, as long as he moved an inch, he would be swept away by this fist.
Glancing at the big pit next to him because of the main fist style of the Competitive Tower, the middle-aged man couldn't help but shake his head loudly: "Shigu Buhua is used to evaluate you, and it's really not wrong!" How many years has it been? Twenty years? Thirty years? Or is it more ancient? Your fighting style hasn't changed at all! ”
At the same time, he raised his palm and beckoned to the Lord of the Athletic Tower—provocative, overflowing.
Hum!
I know what kind of existence the other person is. After the Tower Lord of the Athletic Tower snorted coldly, he unleashed a stormy attack. In the face of such an attack, the middle-aged man on the opposite side is like a boat that has passed through the storm, and it seems that he will capsize at any time, but he always rides the wind and waves at every critical moment.
Rumble! Rumble! Rumble!
The fist wind overflowed, not only the ground, but the surrounding flowers and trees were crushed in an instant, mixed with the splashed dirt, and the sky was flying-
Is this above the Solar?
No, it's the pinnacle of the Solar Class!
Looking at the overflowing fist style, Ye Qi had a positive evaluation after a short observation; Then, his brows were tightly knit - Ye Qi was sure, the middle-aged man he only knew was named 'Moran', he was more than eighty percent sure, the other party was above the Sun, although, at this moment, the Athletic Tower Lord showed extraordinary combat effectiveness, but in the face of the Sun, it was obviously not an opponent.
And since just now, the other party has been dodging without any return fire!
It is conceivable that if the other side fights back......
Immediately, Ye Qi watched the battle between the two with slightly squinted eyes - let him watch the old man with a hearty laugh in front of him get injured, especially the love that the other party showed to him before, Ye Qi couldn't be indifferent.
"Oh, our little one looks like he can't wait! So, let's end our battle first! ”
The middle-aged man in the battle glanced at Ye Qi on the side consciously, and immediately smiled at the tower master of the competitive tower, and then, the whole person disappeared out of thin air, leaving only a trace of voice-
Punishment. Prison Locks!
The black-purple light flashed suddenly, and the middle-aged man appeared again, standing about twenty yards behind the tower master of the competitive tower, while the tower master of the competition tower was firmly bound by a total of twelve black-purple chains, trapped in place - the end of each black-purple chain was covered by a black robe with a hood, half-floating in the air, only revealing a pale palm that seemed to have been soaked in water for an unknown amount of time, comparable to a floating corpse.
"Don't worry, this just makes Jemond temporarily lose his mobility! However, if you are trapped for too long, it will be problematic; After all, Jemond is a lot old! As if the words were explained, the next moment changed hexagrams, the middle-aged man's casualness was still the same, he slowly walked in front of Ye Qi, and said, "Why don't we make a game?" ”
"Ye Qi, don't promise...... Hmph......"
"To be a captive is to have the consciousness of a captive, although I don't like to torture and kill prisoners, but that doesn't mean I won't do it!"
Before the Lord of the Athletic Tower could finish his words, he was interrupted by the pain caused by the tightening of the chains; Putting down the arm he had just raised, the middle-aged man turned his head, continued to look at Ye Qi, and asked with a smile, "How is it, is the little guy interested?" ”
"What game?"
Ye Qi had a cold face and asked slowly-everything that happened before was so fast that even Ye Qi, who was prepared, couldn't react, and could only watch the other party's 'move' trap the tower master of the competitive tower in it, and this is not something that can be easily let go of for Ye Qi, who has already decided to save people, however, he did not have impulsiveness, but adhered to his previous habits, became more and more calm, looking at the middle-aged man in front of him, and the twelve existences in black robes who suddenly appeared here.
Twelve Solar-level beings......
There is also a solar......
The form in front of him instantly became extremely unfavorable to him, but this did not mean that Ye Qi did not have a chance, he squinted his eyes and quietly waited for the other party's answer.
