Chapter Forty-Nine: The Trap!
Dominic jumped hard, borrowed his strength from the rock wall, pounced on the four-meter-high island wall, grabbed a bulge with both hands, and climbed up to the island little by little, the red-eyed crow quacked.
He didn't use a spell to get to the island, and the two companions behind him were in a state of stealth, which would make the stealth ineffective, and he could only climb with his bare hands.
Dominic used his actions and the crow's cries to cover up his actions and make it to Blackstone Island with his two companions.
The island was very warm, and the snowflakes melted immediately when they fell on the ground, and the ground was wet, and the black rocks became darker and darker.
The door to the Mage's Tower was closed, and Dominic pushed it open, making a creaking sound, and Lin Lei was sitting in the middle of the hall, concentrating on sketching.
Dominic looked left and right, but saw no trace of Ke Mingde, and was secretly happy in his heart.
"Newton is not here, but the opportunity is great!"
Dominic stomped his feet in the doorway, kicked the muddy water off his shoes, and walked into the hall.
Suddenly, my feet were cold, and there was a clattering sound, and I couldn't take a step.
Looking down, his legs froze, and all the ice from the waist down was frozen in a solid piece of ice, and the ice was still spreading upwards until it reached his chest, and he gathered his hands above his head to avoid the ice.
Oops! Magic Trap!
......
Time was pushed back to before Dominic left Blackstone Island.
"There's something wrong with this person, it's probably not the real Dominic!"
Lin Lei stood aside, watching Ke Mingde practice the guiding technique, this person is really excellent, not long after learning magic, he has gradually grown into a qualified black-robed mage, and in the month he has been on the island, he has truly experienced the extraordinaryness of this person.
Talented, quick learner, and more importantly, diligent, from the jerkiness when he first went into the water to pick the magic core, to the current sophistication, it only took a month, no wonder he was included in the Eternal White Tower in his twenties.
In order to ensure loyalty and centripetal force, the Eternal White Pagoda has always only recruited disciples around the age of sixteen.
At the age of sixteen, he has already shown a talent for magic cultivation, reaching the age where he can practice meditation, and his mind is not very mature and plastic.
"Whew!" Ke Mingde took a deep breath, retracted his posture, and terminated the cultivation of the Guiding Technique.
"He used Transfiguration!" said Ke Mingde for sure.
"Oh?"
"I learned a spell and was able to see through his disguise. Ke Mingde explained.
Lin Lei didn't delve into it, as a mage, who didn't have a few means to press the bottom of the box?
"If that's the case, the real Dominic is likely to have been killed!" Lin Lei analyzed.
"Yes, I don't know if Lucien was killed. ”
"Then why did he sneak into Blackstone Island? With His Highness Dilla here, no one can take Blackstone Island, and there are not many magic cores stored on the island, which will be transported to Neverwinter every month......"
"If it's for the core, Lucien is in danger. ”
"It's unlikely, no one would kill two or more Eternal White Tower mages for more than six hundred low-level demon cores. ”
"If they do something to us, no one will know, unless Lucien is also attacked and flees back to Winterfell. ”
"The pretender must have bad intentions, but he doesn't know what the purpose is!"
"In any case, we must strike first, take the initiative, and not passively respond to the enemy!"
The two deliberated and decided.
"I can pass by him, sneak up on him, knock off his staff, and subdue him. Ke Mingde proposed.
"I don't know what else he's hiding, it's too dangerous. Lin Lei shook his head, he has studied art for many years, and his experience is far better than Ke Mingde.
"What's your idea?"
"Magic trap!" Lin Lei pondered for a moment, "Setting up a magic trap 'Ice Prison' is enough to restrict his movements, and he won't kill him by mistake, and then interrogate him......"
Ke Mingde is as good as a stream, assisting Lin Lei to prepare.
Ke Mingde had not yet learned the art of making magic traps, so he could only fight and put on his mage robes and prepare his staff.
The robes had protective spells on them, able to withstand some faint damage, and even then, they were better than the thick leather armor he had used.
Ready for everything, Lin Lei moved out of the stone carvings in his house, and pretended to draw drafts in the living room, Ke Mingde sat opposite Lin Lei, with the spell book and staff at hand, ready to be used at any time.
He also had an oak staff pinned to his waist as a backup.
"They're coming!"
The alarm sounded to detect the circle, and the two looked at each other, ready to go.
"What people!" Ke Mingde deliberately shouted.
"Dominic!" came a response from the snowflakes.
However, Ke Mingde's heart suddenly tightened.
"Three people!"
During the scanning, three people were found!
Dominic walked at the front, with a short and thin man in the middle, and a burly man at the end.
The three of them hung from each other, each separated by a meter.
Ke Mingde stood up and walked to the window in three or two steps, but he could only see Dominic alone, gradually approaching in the snow.
"There are three of them! Two stealthily followed behind Dominic!"
"What!" Lin Lei's color changed: "Are you sure?"
"I can see through their invisibility. Kominde was sure. "There's not enough time to set up magic traps. ”
"Get ready to fight, we're ready to take them by surprise!"
Lin Lei's face was grim, he picked up his staff, and hid it in a wide sleeved robe, still holding the charcoal pen for sketching between his fingers.
"I'll go to the core of the circle, and when someone comes in, I will immediately open the circle and cut them off!" Ke Mingde had an idea.
"It's too late, it takes ten seconds for the circle to activate, and it will also produce strong magic fluctuations, which are extremely easy to detect. ”
Lin Lei shook his head and refused.
Ko Mingde didn't know this, the protective circle on the island had been turned off, he had never used it, he didn't know much about it, and the magic books didn't record these small things.
"Magic really needs to be handed over by a teacher. Ke Mingde shook his head, shaking out the inopportune thought.
Then he recited a spell and unleashed buffs such as "Sharp Reflexes", "Bear Power", and "Wind Guardian".
"You put on the stealth spell on yourself, find a place, and as soon as they open the door, I will cast a spell to make the stealth visible, and you find a chance to make a move. ”
Ke Mingde nodded, opened the spell book, released the concealment technique, and quietly hid behind the door.
In the midst of the scan, Ke Mingde stared intently at the three gangsters.
Walked in!
"Crunch!"
The door was pushed open, and the man disguised as Dominic stomped his feet, walked in, and stepped on the carpet in the doorway.
The magic trap was immediately triggered, and the cold air rose, and the impostor was frozen from the chest down, except for the arms and head exposed, and his face was full of shock.
"Quickly revealed!"
Without waiting for the pretender to speak, Lin Lei, who was sitting firmly in the living room, let out a loud shout, threw away the charcoal pen in his hand, drew his staff, and released the manifestation technique at the door.
Two men suddenly emerged from the air in disguise, stunned, the thin man had stepped into the threshold, and the majestic man was still outside the door.
"Impact Orb!"
Ke Mingde was in the buff of "Sharp Reaction", and his reaction was extremely fast, and with a finger of his staff, he struck a magic ball the size of a fist, like a cannonball, and hit the skinny mage.
"Ahh
A layer of magic shield appeared on this person's body, which was shattered and invisible in an instant, and the impact orb was a little smaller, and it still hit his left rib.
He spurted out a mouthful of blood, and his body flew sideways, flying two meters away, hitting the wall, screaming again, and falling to the ground weakly, like a broken bag.
This is a battle between mages, where the first striker has absolute superiority.
Especially the black-robed mage, who has mastered extremely lethal spells, his body is extremely fragile compared to spells, and when he loses the opportunity and is defenseless, he will hit the ground running, and life and death will be separated.
