Chapter 120: A Gamble That Doesn't Exist

"Silsilly Suo, Silsilly Suosuo", in the empty temple, strange voices continued. [No pop-up novel network]

When the four people on both sides disappeared from the main hall, dozens of fluorescent balls supported by Victor's magic power above their heads immediately dissipated due to the loss of energy supply, and the hall fell into absolute darkness. However, this was not difficult for Moore and the girls in the main hall, Freya only waved her arms a few times, several of the lower half had mechanical legs, and the upper half was a crystal lamp-shaped machine that slowly crawled out of Freya's backpack, automatically climbed along the pillars of the temple to the middle, and then shrunk up like a fixed decoration.

With the light provided by Freya, none of the remaining people were idle, and began to search the empty hall in a carpet manner, each responsible for an area, starting with the entrance, almost turning the temple over. But unfortunately, there is nothing in the huge temple except for the building, and even the shrine is fixed to the ground and integrated with the main hall. There was no living area in the entire temple, no other rooms, even a door, and no other access could be found. After rummaging around for a while, the few men retreated and returned to the center of the temple, leaving Freya to complete the task of continuing the search.

Freya didn't need to search by herself, under the gaze of everyone, the princess of the Holy Capital released more than a dozen mechanical spiders from her backpack, these mechanical spiders are only the size of a palm, and they have no attack ability, but they can flexibly crawl on any terrain with eight legs, even if it is a vertical wall, they can also move smoothly and quickly on it, and any suspicious objects or spaces can be fed back to Freya here, and then carefully inspected by humans.

These metal spiders crawl in the dark. The sound of a constant stream of soos is like a real spider, and from time to time a metallic reflection flashes around the light source, making other girls who know that it is their own machinery still feel a creepy sense of danger. However, as time passed, Freya's round face. The expression became more and more serious, and in the original conjecture of several people, if Victor had never left here, the temple would definitely be connected to his living area, after all, he could not stand in the hall every day to eat and sleep. However, all ways have not been able to find his living space, which shows. He actually has another place to live, so the secret he may be hiding in that unknown residence.

"No, I can't find it. Freya shook her head with a straight face, and said to Catherine, "I don't think so. His existence can't see the light, and it's impossible for him to run around outside every day, otherwise his identity will be easily seen through by familiar mages, and I don't think that all the mages who know him are in league with the Sands of Time. So. In order to hide his identity, he must not leave here too often. There will definitely be a place for him here. ”

"But we can't find it. Catherine sighed and said, "Could it be in that corridor outside the main hall?"

"No, I don't think so. Freya shook her head and said, "When I entered the gate just now, I paid special attention to if his residence was outside. There will be a lot of entry and exit here, so the gate will definitely not be what it is now. So, there must be something we haven't discovered, otherwise it would be impossible to explain all of this now. The problem is, I'm almost digging deep into the ground, and if I had, I should be able to find it anyway. ”

"Who says you have to dig deep into the ground?" Lina said with her chin raised her chin as she held a thick novel in her arms, and raised her chin to Eva, who was silent and just stood with her head up, "Why do you only think about the hidden space under your feet, but don't want to think about whether it will be above your head?" ”

"Overhead?" Freya raised her head with great effort, looked at the ceiling hidden in the darkness directly above her, and said, "Dozens of meters high, and there is no ladder, how can he go up if he lives on it?" I really ignored it when I searched, wait a minute, I'll let my pets go up and take a look. ”

The sound of Suosuo crawling sounded again, but due to the height of the light source, the top of the temple had been wrapped in darkness, and only the light below could dimly see the faint shadow of the ceiling. However, the mechanical spider's exploration relies mainly on its sense of touch, and it can accurately detect its surroundings even in the dark, so it doesn't take long for a faint roar to be heard overhead.

"Found it, and sure enough, it was on it. Freya clenched her fists and said excitedly, "I'll let my pets go in first to see if there's any danger, and if it's safe, let's find a way to go up and see together." ”

Before the words fell, the energy fluctuations around him suddenly changed, and the space began to distort rapidly, and in the next moment, four people suddenly appeared out of thin air and staggered back to the temple. Obviously, it was the four people who had just entered the battlefield, but they all looked embarrassed now. Vivien's two short ponytails on the top of her head, the end of one of which was scorched a lot, and the hem of the robe also had large scorched marks, but her body was not damaged, and Pannis's left hand had become seven mature, and the burnt surface still exuded the aroma of roasted R. And his short blond hair, which was originally attached to the top of his head, now stands upright like a hedgehog, always giving people the illusion that he will be pierced by the hand, and his face is also scorched in a few places, but it does not look like it has been burned by fire, but more like it has been baptized by lightning.

However, although the two of them stumbled and almost fell, they were at least able to stand on their own, and the other two were not as lucky as they were. The former red-robed mage Felek had lost his life, half of his body burned by the hot flames, but the real fatal wound was a spiral-shaped ice arrow still nailed to his chest. When they saw him, including Moore, everyone barely recognized him, and if it weren't for the remaining half of the red robes on his body, no one would have imagined that this person was the middle-aged mage in his thirties with a calm and serious face before. Now, his hair has not only become thinning, but has become completely snow-white, his skin is full of wrinkles and patches, his lips are sunken inward, it should be that a large part of his teeth have fallen out automatically, visually speaking, he now, or his corpse now, is no different from those victims who have been robbed of time and finally died due to organ failure.

As for the demigod mage Victor, he was still alive and barely scarred on his body, but he looked older than Felek's corpse, unable to even stand up again, and could only lie on the ground gasping for breath, hissing from his throat with each breath, sounding like he could die at any moment.

"Hey, hey, hey. Vivien stumbled back until she fell into Catherine's arms as she rushed over, raised her head to stare at Catherine's worried face, and let out a smirk of unknown meaning, then she gasped and said, "It's over, hehe, big sister, guess who wins in the end?"

Catherine rolled her eyes angrily, pinched the mage girl's immature face and said, "Still laughing, still laughing, can't stand up, still smirking over there, and you, Pennis, how are your injuries?"

Although Pannis's injuries were obviously worse than Vivian's, Catherine didn't rush to his side at the first time, because after he appeared out of thin air, he only took two steps back, and he had already regained his balance, and he didn't need someone to help him like Vivian, and Lina had already met him as soon as possible, ready to treat him. However, as soon as he stood firm, he shook his fragrant arms, and his face looked like he wanted to bite down and taste the taste, which made Lina, who was already close, feel cold and distanced herself from him again, and she really didn't want to get close to him again.

"Your time magic is weird and powerful, but in the end, we won. Although Pannis showed a foolish appearance, Lina couldn't bear to watch Pannis continue to play with her burned arm, and finally gritted her teeth viciously and began to treat him. And Pannis, while stretching out his arm, said to Victor, who could die at any time: "It's a pity that in the end you are still an ordinary person, and you have not become a god, and your dreams have been shattered." ”

"yes, we lost. Victor's voice was weak, and he needed to distinguish carefully to hear clearly: "What the teacher said before was very right, you are indeed very strong, with our strength, it is really difficult to defeat you, and even if we want to kill her, we have no regrets at all about losing this battle." ”

"Now that you have admitted defeat, as professional gamblers, you are willing to gamble. Pannis said expressionlessly, "It's time to fulfill your promise and hand over the bet drawings to us." ”

"Hehehehe, professional gamblers, especially professional gamblers who have already lost red eyes, don't believe even a word in their words. Although Victor was getting weaker and weaker, he smiled happily: "How can you leave drawings for doing such a thing, it's so stupid, you will actually believe it, and it also surprises me, hahahaha." ”

Pannis's face was calm, not at all surprised, he did not believe in the existence of the blueprints from the beginning, and promised a duel only with the faintest hope. Now that his hopes were disappointed, he would not be disappointed, but silently looked at Victor's face like a dead tree.

"Our plan will succeed in the end, and the secret of time will be revealed before our eyes. Victor's eyes had lost focus, looked up at the ceiling, and muttered his last words: "We have returned to the river of time, but the future will definitely return to the world, hehehe, through the river of time, I have seen the arrival of that day......"
