Chapter 88: From Three Phases to 547
"Three-phase magic circle, this is a good name, right?" Qian Jing racked his brains, and finally came up with this name that barely met the standard. At the very least, the three-phase circle is a little more advanced than the Black Heart Trap and Soybean Sauce No. 1. "What else do you think you can come up with?"
"I thought it would be called the Dimensional Shift Hub......"
"Okay, that's the name, the Dimensional Shifting Center sounds much better, or you'll come up with a name. Qian Jing doesn't care much about what the name is, he cares more about "affordable" things. "Your Excellency the Great Magician, how much do you estimate to earn half of your income?"
"Your choice is right, and it's better for you to divide it. Even half of the share is enough to make you rich. Samiel frowned suddenly, then put his hand on Qian Jing's shoulder, and said earnestly: "I suddenly thought of the loophole in the whole plan, and that loophole is you." When the Fortress Star begins to use the Dimensional Shifting Hub's Sealing Spell and Steam Engine, those who care about it will definitely start investigating. From these two things to the ultimate magic contest, and then to you. As long as you are caught, it will be difficult to keep the secrets of the Dimensional Center. It's not going to work......"
"Wait, you don't want to change your promise and keep me under house arrest on Stronghold, do you?"
"Of course not. The Stronghold Star Wizard kept his word and promised that it would not change. Samiel shook his head and said slowly, "Let's change the way. You're actually a champion, but you're not a champion – nominally we don't recognize it. I've figured out the reason: you have an invitation card, but not this time. Because of the destruction of a handful of dissidents in the Stronghold, you were lucky enough to participate in this ultimate magic contest and win before the others even started. This is clearly unfair. So, we don't give you any physical rewards in name, we just give you the winner's share of the money, and then re-play the tournament, and the new champion still has a steam engine and a seal spell card, and all the other rewards. In this way, your wealth has an explanation and can be partially detached from the hot stuff. ”
"It's easier to convert into money, but I'm more concerned about our agreement. ”
"Oh, the Stronghold Star Steam Engine, the Sealing Spell Card, and the knowledge of becoming a Grand Mage, these are unaffected - they are the agreement of the Dimensional Shifting Nexus Magic Array, and they have nothing to do with the champion. I'll take these with me, and I'll give them to you now. ”
"You even have all of this with you? Space gear is such a good thing. Qian Jing thought for a while: "That's it, I'll give you ten Dimensional Shift Centers, and then we'll make an exchange." That way I don't have to risk contacting this anymore when I get out of here - and I don't want to be targeted. Oh, do a full set of dramas, it's okay if we fall out on the surface, I don't mind. Choosing between face and satoko, I prefer satoko. And losing face can make me safer, which is not changed. ”
"That...... What you said is not well translated, there are a few words...... Forget it, anyway, I probably understand what you mean: let's make a show together for others to see. You're safe, I'm here to reduce the risk, and our magic tournament can go ahead as usual, and everyone is satisfied. ”
Qian Jing likes to understand the feeling of doing win-win business with people, just two words: happy. He sat down, took the special magic array scroll paper provided by Sami El, and drew ten dimensional shifting central magic arrays in one go. Probably because of the influence of the happy mood, these ten scrolls are the highest level of the money mirror, and each one is almost perfect.
"If you still need it in the future, feel free to contact me, I'll ......" Qian Jing blinked, and suddenly thought of one thing: he didn't feel the slightest tiredness this time. A single Dimension Shifting Hub doesn't consume much Mind-Shaping Ink, but ten of them add up to not a small amount. Coupled with the black-hearted trap circle on the two pieces of leather armor on the front chest and back, some stickmen on standby, if these were placed in the past, they should have approached the limit of Qian Jing.
Qian Jing patted his body, and then jumped, still feeling very relaxed. Grand Magician Samiel hurriedly asked, "What's wrong with you, is something wrong?"
"There's something strange about the feeling in the body. Qian Jing felt it carefully, and finally found that there was something strange in his mouth. The blue crystal piece that had been in its mouth disappeared, like a piece of sugar that had melted away before you knew it. Qian Jing only knew that the increase in his own strength would improve the Mind Shaping Ink, but his magic ability had not improved qualitatively in the recent period. Therefore, the change in the Mind Sculpting Ink is more likely to be the effect of the blue crystal.
"It seems that drawing a dimensional shifting center magic array will be a burden on your body, and you should take care of your health and safety so that this unique ability can live in the universe for a longer time. Don't be like the guy who snaps his fingers and can ignite the planets, who had a great future, but died young because he didn't pay attention to his health. Archmage Samiel took the ten scrolls, examined them with a satisfied expression, and carefully put them in his pocket. He then pulled out a space bag from the sleeve of his left hand and his right hand, and at the same time floated them in the air. Some miscellaneous things moved from left to right, and a large number of books, scrolls, and some magic rune gems from right to left. Then, he handed the bag in his left hand to Qian Jing: "This is all the knowledge you need to start from scratch to the Great Mage, including the information on the Fortress Star Steam Engine and the Seal Spell Card in the agreement, plus five million stone elemental coins as the championship bonus, all for you." ”
Qian Jing took the space bag, opened it and took a look, and then carefully put it into his pocket. He returned the champion's bag to the Grand Mage, confirming the deal. However, he then said, "Your Excellency Sami El, I am a water elemental physique, and the results of testing the other elements are all black, not at all. Can I still be a great magician like this?"
"Huh? Your constitution is so special? The things I gave you are all commonly used by the Strongholders, that is, the method of starting with earth elemental spells...... In this way, you travel fee, I will let Yuna go to Earth to teach you for a while. You don't have to pay for the tuition and the rest, who told her to give out the special invitation ticket and not report it? She can take a look at the scenery of your planet by the way, and let her come back when you finish getting started. The simple water element does not delay you from becoming a great magician, and there are pros and cons to it, so you can experience it yourself. ”
"Oh, thank you so much, how many Destiny Gold do I need to get to Earth?I have to go back to the fortress star to ......" Before Qian Jing finished speaking, he saw a protective ring light up under his feet. The golden ring flickered like a lamp with unstable voltage. What does this mean? Qian Jing was also stunned.
Suddenly, the sky darkened suddenly, as if it had changed from a sunny afternoon to a thundercloud dusk. Everyone looked up, and at the same time there was a growing uneasiness in their hearts. Qian Jing looked at Grand Magician Samiel and saw that confusion was also written on his face, so he asked, "What's the matter?"
As soon as the words fell, thunder erupted. Centered on the sky directly above the entrance to the labyrinth, ten thousand lightning bolts rushed in all directions, and the roar was deafening. Then, a hole appeared in the sky at the center of the thunder, and a sharp metal object pierced in.
The protective ring under Qian Jing's feet was completely lit up, which made him feel a lot more relieved and could continue to observe more calmly. The sharp corners of the metal that broke through the air grew bigger and bigger, and it turned out to be the ramming angle of a ship. The ship has a graceful streamlined build, smoothly transitioning turrets and integrated bridges, masts. The hull is black overall, with some bright spots on the surface that play the role of starry camouflage, but it may also be some kind of detection or combat equipment. The only place where the whole ship has a different color is a five-star red flag.
"This is the 547 ship of the relevant departments of the earth, come to receive the evacuation of compatriots, and irrelevant personnel avoid it!" The loud voice overwhelmed the thunder and sounded three times above the labyrinth.
"It's so presumptuous!This is a fortress star, how can you let the battle golems of other civilizations enter?!" Samiel's beard and hair stood on end, and his whole body was full of elemental energy, and the flames and thunderstorms were in his thoughts. Qian Jing was blown down by the strong wind brought by this elemental energy, and rolled on the ground three times. But he immediately got up and waved his hand high: "I'm here! I'm here! Don't fire yet!"
"Get out of my space!" Archmage Samiel clenched his fist, and the cracks in the space began to close. I saw a hemispherical device in the middle of the hull of the 547 ship spinning, constantly releasing gray light, and forcibly resisting the spatial crack, just not letting it close. It then opened the hatch at the rear of the ship, and two helicopters, which had never been seen before, ejected and activated their rotors in the air, one remaining in the air to set up a gun patrol and the other to land on the ground.
"I'm here!" Qian Jing was very excited, he didn't expect that there would be rescue, and the rescue rushed directly into the competition space. "Mage Sami El, this is the people of my planet, and the flag can't be wrong. I'll go now, and don't have any conflicts. ”
"From your point of view, it's a rescue, but from the point of view of the Stronghold, it's a major failure. It's not going to end there. Samiel clenched his fist again, and even the palm of his hand showed signs of burning and smoking, but the spatial crack was still firmly open, and it was not closed even if he died. "Qian Jing, you should leave quickly. The Core Ring will discuss this with that relevant department of yours, but that doesn't affect you. If you have time to develop the fortress star, come and play, we will build this place better than you there!"
"I have faith in you, too. But can you help me get to the entrance? I'm too slow to get there. At this time, the sooner I go, the better, okay?" Qian Jing said excitedly, "Finally, please do me a favor?" Oh, the Guardian Golem belongs to my two-headed friend, can you give it back to him?"
Grand Magician Samiel sighed, then snapped his fingers. A teleportation circle appeared at the foot of the Guardian Golem, and it fell straight down. Another circle appeared next to Qian Jing, and he needed to walk in by himself. "Goodbye, Qian Jing. Everything will be done as promised, and I wish you to become a great magician one day. ”
"May the Fortress Star prosper for a long time. Qian Jing bowed slightly, and then walked into the portal. He appeared directly at the entrance to the labyrinth, and around the corner was the helicopter that was slowly descending.
"It feels good to have someone who cares. Qian Jing wiped the moist corners of his eyes. Even if there is a golden circle under his feet, it is not at all as good as the shouts of "Qian Jing, Liu Ming......" constantly named on the radio.
The contestants and prison escapees who were temporarily trapped in the venue retreated in unison, they were not familiar with what weapons were on both sides of the helicopter, but they were able to drive a battleship to pierce the space barrier, which was already a manifestation of extreme force, and no one wanted to risk their lives to give others an insight. However, there are some who stand in the distance with the posture of watching a good show, waiting for the archmages of the fortress star to teach these "intruders who do not know the height of the sky." ”
"Little man, over here!" Hu Ga, who had two heads and four eyes, spotted Qian Jing faster than the other two-eyed creatures. "These people are here for you. I really envy that someone came to save you, you should leave quickly!"
"Huga...... It's good that you're okay. Let's go together, come to my house as a guest!" Qian Jing tugged at the hand of the two-headed ogre. The two escaped from prison together and lived together in the labyrinth of the ultimate magic competition, forming a comradeship. "My mother's cakes are delicious, you must try them. ”
"You forgot to add the word 'we' again, but we forgive you. Hu Ga lowered his head and lowered his voice and said, "How are you talking to Sami El? Are you the champion? Am I the runner-up?"
"He paid some coins, so now I have to say, I'm not a champion and you're not a runner-up. Qian Jing blinked: "Do you want to listen to my advice? While the magicians haven't thought of making more trouble, leave here, at least wait for the wind to calm down before coming back." Besides, I'm going to have to find a way to get your ...... Your body changes back. ”
Hu Ga patted Qian Jing on the shoulder and said without hesitation: "You are very discerning, and you will not suffer if you listen to your advice." We'll go with you! Wait for us to take the Golem and your friends. Just half a minute, don't forget to explain it to your boat!"
"Let go of the money mirror - you monster - or I'll blow your head off, both!"
Just the first two words, Qian Jing could already hear who the owner of this voice was. He smiled and looked back, and sure enough, he saw Raisa. She stood in the helicopter hatch, two ropes hanging from her waist, and a spear in her hand. A soldier in body armor next to him was shouting, "This is a violation of discipline," but Captain Chang Sheng, who was also sitting in the cabin, waved his hand and said something like "Calm down."
"Laisha, you're so beautiful! Oh, don't shoot, this is my friend Hu Ga, we worked together to escape!" Qian Jing shouted loudly: "Liu Ming is still alive, and so are the red sticks and pen heads!" Captain Chang, I can't leave him behind, can I take him with me?"
Chang Sheng beckoned: "Okay! Come up quickly, let's go together! We can't stay long!"
Qian Jing ran to the side of the cabin but didn't go up immediately. He looked at Laisha and laughed: "It's amazing, I didn't expect such a rescue!
"You're fighting the nation!...... You madman!" Lai Shah's face turned red, not knowing whether she was angry or ashamed. She felt someone pulling the safety rope behind her, and suddenly looked back at it and yelled, "Don't pull it!
She threw the gun back to the male soldier who had been saying "violation of discipline", then sat back, leaving a vacant seat for Qian Jing between herself and Chang Sheng: "What are you waiting for, come up quickly." ”
"I'll have to wait for Huga to go with me. He also took Liu Ming with him. Captain Chang won't abandon any of his teammates, will he?"
Chang Sheng nodded: "Don't worry, Qian Jing, I'll take you all back, and then reminisce." Oh my God, that's a Guardian Golem? Is that thing on a plane, too?"
Qian Jing nodded, saying that it was Hu Ga, Liu Ming and others inside, so everyone had to scramble to make room for the golem. The group was crowded together, like sardines in a can. The helicopter spewed three puffs of black smoke, and its rotors spun wildly, and finally flew up with a roar and returned to the 547 ship.
