Chapter 78: Touch Your Hand
Qian Jing took the hand of Grand Stanci Magician, the one who was wearing the gemstone magic ring.
An icy feeling came from that hand. Even though he knew that the Great Magician was dead, his body was beginning to stiffen, and it was absolutely impossible to move again, Qian Jing still had the illusion of being clenched. The cold, but powerful hand that had cast powerful spells countless times, seemed to have hidden power, and seemed to be able to reach out from the world of the dead and keep pulling the money mirror in that direction.
"Illusion, don't make up your own stories to scare yourself!" Qian Jing took a deep breath: "This is a copy, just like the one when I painted the magic grass." Copying once, copying just ......"
Qian Jing used the Mind Shaping Ink to perceive Archmage Stanch's physical features, and used his other hand to imitate these features. Qian Jing didn't see any panel around the control lean, so the possibility of using a password here is relatively low. He speculated that the Golem system would most likely rely on judging certain physical characteristics that could not be counterfeited to identify the user, similar to fingerprint and iris technology on Earth, after all, it could achieve good benefits in terms of both convenience and safety.
"I'm Stanch now. Qian Jing silently hinted to himself: "The charm god grass can make the food flavor enhancer work normally, and I should also make this control center work in the same way." Now, concentrate the elemental senses on your right hand, on the mind-shaping ink. That's Stanch's right hand, and I'm Stanch. ”
If you draw something, you can imitate it, and if you draw people, you can imitate people. Qian Jing can't afford to draw a whole person, but he has no problem drawing a part. The Mind Shaping Ink mimics the senses of the Stanch Grand Magician, and the Golem senses the familiar element "smell", so it releases the ban and establishes a connection with the "Stanch Master".
"What are the orders, Master Stanch. The core control room asked, and the flickering speed of the magic runes on the four walls slowed down, as if it had entered some kind of waiting state.
"Restate the previous order. Qian Jing said in his own voice, but the core control room still accepted and began to execute this order.
"No, what did you do?" the little spider golem jumped to its feet, jumped onto Qian Jing's left hand, and stabbed its steel arthropod tentacles upward. "Loosen up, let go! You are not allowed to desecrate the body of your master! You must ...... for it."
Qian Jing raised his head slightly, looking at it with blazing eyes. "Stop!" Qian Jing scolded, the golem little spider was excited, and it really stopped.
"No, you're not the master!" the Golem Spider looked at the money mirror, and eight small dark compound eyes stared at it. The Golem part of the little spider was stiff, but the part of its lifeform, the spider's head, was very awake. And as the magic pet of the Great Magician, it is more intelligent, so it is not affected by Qian Jing's "characteristic imitation ability" for the time being. It saw the body of its owner on the ground, and of course knew that the guy lying on the chair shaking hands with its owner was a counterfeit. However, the part of the golem on its body does not have such a discernment, and the mechanism of feature sensing rather than sentiment analysis makes this part of the golem obey the imposter's orders.
The eight metal arthropods trembled violently with their tentacles, struggling between the spider's thoughts and the contradictory commands of "Stanch". "Can't let you continue! can't ......"
"Are you going to release your magic? You can't release it on me, because I'm Stanch, your master. Qian Jing saw that the gem behind the little spider began to glow, and felt the fluctuations when the elemental energy gathered, and understood that he had to solve the hidden danger of amnesia magic first. "It's good that you're doing your duty. But you should forget about Qian Jing, just remember your master Stanch. Follow Stanch's master's orders and forget about the money mirror. ”
"No!" the little spider golem jumped into the air from Qian Jing's hand and shouted condescendingly, "According to the master's last wishes, you will all lose your memory!"
Qian Jing knew that it was now a critical moment, and he knew very well that it was almost impossible for him to resist the magic of the great magician, and the only chance was to prevent the little spider from shooting magic at him. He clenched the corpse's hand tightly, concentrated all his will on imitating the characteristics of the great magician, pointed at the little spider and said, "You dare to cast a spell on your master!
The mind-shaping ink on Qian Jing's wrist quickly returned, and two black ink lines concentrated along the carotid artery to Qian Jing's face, and then ooped out from the pores, forming a faint black mist that covered the entire face. This layer of black mist did not block Qian Jing's vision, so he was unaware. At the same time, the Great Mage's face suddenly became hazy, and the black mist turned into a perfect mask, mimicking the Face of the Great Mage. Although this face had no expression, and it couldn't move its mouth to match Qian Jing's voice, it deeply touched the little spider golem's heart.
"The host...... It's the host...... I'm still alive! I don't dare to disobey ......."
The gem behind the spider erupted in a flash of light, enveloping the entire control room, except for the Qian Mirror lying on the control chair and the remains of the great magician lying on the side of the chair. At the last moment, it was affected by the effect of the Mind-Shaping Ink, recognizing Qian Jing as Master Stanch, and then forcibly modifying the spell effect. This memory modification spell came from Master Stanch, how could it be easily modified by the little spider? The power of the spell caused a backlash, and the little spider also suffered the effect of magic like Liu Ming and the others. It tumbled and fell, all the way to the chest of Stanch's remains. It stopped, eight feet in the air, eight eyes closed, motionless and in a coma.
Liu Ming, the red stick, and the pen also fainted, and the stickman ran over to help them up, so as not to accidentally lose the three real villains. The mask formed by the mind-shaping ink quietly disappeared, and the face of the Great Magician returned to its original state. Qian Jing didn't realize that he had just completely stolen the identity of Master Stanch, he only felt that his body had become tired, and he only regarded it as the effect of concentrating on the manipulation of the elements. Therefore, Qian Jing, who had been filled with the joy of the rest of his life after the robbery, took a deep breath and continued to listen to the control room golem retell his previous plan.
Stanch Magician did hold back. Breaking into the final arena is only the first step, avoiding detection by the archmages is the second step. In the third step, the mages who remained in the magic forge jointly cast spells, so that all the participants in the castle were qualified for the final competition, and at the same time, they planted the emotions of "the final prize is very unsatisfactory, the magic competition is a lie" and multiple triggering spells. The fourth step is for the magicians in the castle to take the prize and clean up the tails of the hands. Those who still have the potential to retain their memories and normal emotions must die at the scene of the final race.
"Oh, I see, the trap is here! If I lose my memory, there is no threat to my life, and I can still have a small life. But if I keep my memory, I can be alive when I enter the playing field, but it's unlikely that I'll leave alive. Strictly speaking, the venue of the Ultimate Tournament is on Stronghold, which is just a temporary space, so I can return to Stronghold safely, and all the protocols are counted as fully executed. After full execution, the agreement is terminated, they are no longer bound, and I have no protection. As long as you change the space to shield the protective ring, and toss back and forth like this, you can still kill me in the end......" Qian Jing shook his head: "The magician is really insidious...... No wonder he can be a villain. I'm glad that time overcame you and you didn't make it to the time of the plan. ”
The follow-up plans still need to be completed by the magicians, and they are now concentrated in the Magic Alchemy Tower, which is a place dedicated to magical experiments. It was not far from the Control Tower, and it was heavily protected because it contained a huge amount of elemental magical energy, second only to the Control Tower. And according to Stanch's plan, when the half-plane flying castle begins to break through the barrier of the final magic competition venue, the most dangerous impact point is on the other side of the planet, and the control tower and the magic refining tower are the safest.
The half-plane teleportation had begun, and it was impossible to stop halfway, but that didn't prevent the tower from being repositioned. "Revise the plan, use the Magic Alchemy Tower as the spearhead, and hit the target barrier with all your might. As long as it comes in handy, that tower can be abandoned immediately. ”
The golem is neither curious nor asks why, it will only absolutely carry out the orders of its master. As a result, the Half-Plane Flying Fortress slowly turned around, and no one knew what was going on except for Qian Jing. Even if someone can look out through the window, what they see is a void without any reference, how can they know that they have been displaced?
"Be prepared for the shock. Qian Jing looked left and right and found that only he and the stickman were still awake in the room, and everyone else was unconscious under the spell of the little spider. "Oh, Huga is still outside! What about the unlucky kid? It's too late...... If there's any danger, let's hope the Guardian Golem can protect him! ”
Qian Jing would only say sorry to Hu Ga, those magicians who were refining into the tower were not worth these two words. The golem reported the flight situation to Qian Jing in a cold voice, and the countdown had begun.
The half-dimensional sky lit up, and the light from the venue of the Ultimate Magic Contest was flickering in the void. It took only a few seconds for the plane used in the tournament to go from a small spot in the field of vision to occupy most of the sky. The concept of velocity doesn't have much practical meaning in plane teleportation, except in the case of two planes colliding head-on.
The entire spherical castle is a magic device, and the magic array that has been arranged in advance begins to work. Whether it is a boundary-breaking medium or a boundary-piercing medium, all of them play their role according to the plan - only the identity of the alchemy tower has changed. It is now a ramming horn, a dagger trying to pierce into the armor, and the forces of the two spaces colliding are concentrated on this tower, and all kinds of spatial magic that destroys, rebuilds, and merges interact with each other in small places. Five seconds later, "to come in handy", it was indeed abandoned there. After acting as a buffer for a second and absorbing a large amount of impact, it shattered completely under the squeeze of the powerful spatial force, and then was crushed into dust, dissipating in the airflow formed by the shock wave.
The two worlds officially collided, and the point of impact was directly erased. The shockwaves generated by the space energy swept across the planet like a raging wind. Qian Jing couldn't see the situation outside, but he could clearly feel that the control room under him was also starting to vibrate. In fact, the reinforced walls here will not be damaged even if they are three times stronger, but the towers beneath them do not have the same strength. In fact, after Qian Jing and Hu Ga manipulated the two Guardian Golems to wreak havoc, there were already signs of instability here.
"Can you still rotate the control tower away from the impact point of the two planes? No, okay then, let's go through it as smoothly as possible, prioritizing stability and not worrying about whether it will be detected. ”
Qian Jing actually wants to be discovered, because that means that the guards (rescue) will arrive soon, and he can go back to the fortress star to report to the beautiful store manager. However, the Half-Plane Flying Fortress did not have this awareness, and it basically completed the crossing work according to the established plan, safely, efficiently and quietly.
With a gentle "pop", the two small spaces were fused, as if two bubbles had merged into one. The previous shock was violent and dangerous, but after the merger it was peaceful. The Flying Fortress hovers in the sky like a new moon, and a short distance below it is the playing field. Qian Jing was temporarily flawless—and at the same time—unable to enjoy the scenery outside, and he first had to make sure that the Flying Fortress was grounded and that the magicians in the Alchemy Tower were no longer a threat.
"Debriefing. Qian Jing became more and more familiar with this operation order.
"Take the next step, fully merge, avoid being detected – done. Take the next step, activate the thinking circle, plant the seeds of emotion, try, try and fail, don't try again, skip ......"
Qian Jing clenched his fists, his heart full of excitement after success. The magic circle could not be activated, and nine times out of ten, those magicians did not survive the space impact, and his safety factor was greatly improved.
"Proceed to the next step: send out the participants. Prisoner Group: All released, done. Champion Group: All starts, cannot be completed. Retry...... Can't finish. Task failed, proceed to the next ......"
Ahahahaha, the whole army has been wiped out, right?! Great! Qian Jing shouted excitedly, he could confirm that the entire prison escape operation had been successful by this time!
"Skip retrieving the prize and perform a trail cleanup. Debrief: Trace cleanup could not be started, trace cleanup completed. Do next: Leave. ”
"Wait, leaving, what's next?"
"Destination: Parallel Fortress Star Ding 43 Propane. During charging, the estimated charging completion time: 1 hour and 32 minutes. ”
"Stop! Change the destination to Stronghold Star Main Star, the Ring Alliance Business Alliance Office or the White Flag Grocery Store Residence. ”
"Start the revision, find the fault. The Magical Alchemy Tower is missing and cannot store the charged parts. To avoid explosions, the charge will continue and the teleportation will continue. The Golem Control Core continued to report. "Warning: Please be prepared to repair the Magical Alchemy Tower Energy Node. Each delivery will result in and increase the failure rate of the next delivery by 20%. ”
Twenty percent? That is, after teleporting once, there is a 20 percent chance of getting lost in the void when you come back? Qian Jing didn't want to take this risk, he was very sure that he couldn't repair the magic alchemy tower! Staying in the magic competition venue, they would be discovered sooner or later, and in addition to starving to death and dying of thirst, the rescue rate was basically 100 percent. For a life that is only once, no one wants to reduce the chance of survival by 20% all at once.
"Try to delay recharging!oh, so you'll have nearly four hours to use. Qian Jing thought for a while: "It's enough, move everything to the playing field, and this half-plane ball can go wherever you want!"
