048, treasure (1)
Anti-theft magic!
Talos didn't expect Jacob to place this type of anti-theft magic on the Spatial Ring, which would touch and make a loud noise as soon as it left his master's body.
Of course, the most important thing is that the sound of this anti-theft magic is as loud and sharp as any amplification spell, and Talos's ears are about to be deafened before he is caught off guard.
If something like this happens in public, a thief who can't unlock the anti-theft magic for the time being is sure to be in the spotlight in an instant.
"Leave it to me, if it doesn't have the corresponding spell solving or spell stopping technique, I'm afraid it will keep screaming. β
Princess Anna said as she looked at Talos, who had just taken the Spatial Ring off Jacob's finger and looked a little embarrassed by the sudden change.
Talos hesitated, but finally chose to give the Spatial Ring to Princess Anna.
This level of anti-theft magic is not low, and brute-force cracking is very likely to cause another self-destruct spell attached to the spatial ring, resulting in the joint annihilation of the ring space and items.
According to the well-known rules of space, one space magic item cannot be loaded into another space magic item, and Talos did not come out with a spell scroll such as Tranquility and Silence this time, unless he is willing to turn around the Black Sea in a background sound like "Please don't skimp on your attention, this is a space ring owned by Jacob Wood, I was stolen by a shameless thief-", Anna's suggestion is the best way to do it at the moment.
"Talia, I'll leave it to you. β
Anna tossed the Spatial Ring in her hand to the three high-ranking mages in the four-armed Naga, and then continued to reassure the young master of the Neptune family in a gentle tone: "Don't worry, Talia's teacher is Belen, one of the ten permanent councilors of Eternal Tides, and one of the factions that specializes in spells is protective magic. I can't guarantee that she will be able to unlock the arcane lock on the spatial ring, but cracking an anti-theft spell is definitely not a problem. β
In Talos's apparently indifferent, but actually nervous gaze, a rainbow of light spewed onto the spatial ring, eroding the gray magical aura that emerged from it.
Soon, the high-pitched noise that echoed over the square ceased with a rapid explosion.
"Successfully completed the mission, Your Highness the Princess, but there is still a high-level secret lock on it. Given that Jacob is dead and has no way to access the code, it may be difficult to retrieve the contents of the Spatial Ring. β
As a space prop that professionals and nobles carry to store daily necessities and valuables, the space ring is generally equipped with a very complex secret lock, which requires a set of special passwords and the spirit fluctuations of the ring owner to cooperate with each other to open smoothly, and is connected with self-destruct spells like anti-theft magic.
"That's obviously not something you need to worry about, Talia, it's not much different for the Black Sea Lord than disarming a low-level magic trap - well, Talos, that's one of the takeaways from your adventure. β
Anna returned the Spatial Ring to Talos, and not only that, but the Spatial Ring belonging to Juana was also placed in Talos's palm.
"It looks like the Arcane Shooter and the Tidal Shooter don't have the idea of entering Ice City to share the treasure with us, that's good news, isn't it?" The four-armed Naga looked into the distance, not noticing any movement, and announced to Talos very happily, "Then it's free time for the treasure hunt, and we'll see you later." β
After seeing Princess Anna leave the square with the three four-armed Naga, Bill immediately approached Talos's side, and said in a very strange tone and expression, "Did you experience a special feeling just now?"
"What?" Talos looked at the second-order priest of the Church of Fortune suspiciously.
"I meanβ" Bill pointed to the two spatial rings in Talos' hand, their former owners were a pair of siblings, "haven't you noticed that Princess Anna of your Naga Kingdom is motivated by some ...... Well...... Purpose, trying to make a good impression on you?"
"Is there one?" Talos disagreed, he'd seen a lot of similar situations, "Is it to help me unlock the anti-theft magic or to take Juana's spatial ringβ"
The sound stopped abruptly, because the mind of the owner of the sound was knotted at this moment.
The young Naga, who was always sought after and served in the Black Sea, in his family, and in Rhea's School of Witchcraft and Wizardry, had long been accustomed to this kind of thing, and it was not until Bill's deliberate reminder that he finally realized that something was wrong.
Talos slowly turned his body, which was stiff from start, and looked at Bill, then at Lucia, who nodded heavily at him.
Lucia finally realized the difficulties at work that Alesha had complained about in private, and secretly decided that as soon as Talos turned around, she would immediately immerse herself in the magic web ring and report to the Palace of Evelyn that "Princess Anna is trying to develop a relationship with Master Talos beyond the normal relationship between men and women".
"You think this is a gift from Princess Anna...... What kind of gift?" Talos stretched out his left hand and shook it, wearing a spatial ring on his index finger that originally belonged to Juana.
"I think so, Master Talos. β
"Even if it's not, it's not that far. Bilby gestured and continued, "It's probably the difference between 99 and 100." β
Bill is more curious than Lucia, who begins to think about the complex relationships between the Black Sea and the kingdom, the Nepton family and the royal family, and the Schneider family and the royal family, and the goddess of wealth can testify to how much he wants to know about the experience of being pursued by a princess - he is dying of envy!
"Oh, shit!"
Talos slapped himself on the forehead, annoyed that he had taken Anna's actions for granted because of his habitual thinking of often enjoying care and service, and did not immediately expand to another idea.
Because of this, when Anna graciously placed five treasure chests in front of Talos an hour later and told him that they were part of the treasure that belonged to him as agreed, Talos did not hesitate to refuse, even though three of them were full of gold coins and the other two were weapons and jewels.
Talos is very aware of the delicate relationship between the Nepton family and the royal family at this stage, and Sandra is trying to go one step further on the basis of the Black Sea Lord, and must not cause unnecessary variables because of his momentary greed.
Fortunately, this embarrassing situation did not last long, for some reason that Talos could not explain, this space that was suspected not to be in the Arctic Ocean began to shake violently, and there was a tendency to completely collapse in just a few minutes.
