Chapter 260: The Portal
"Please stand up"
Max took a few steps back, away from the Great Magic Circle on the ground. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE。 info
I took Liu Xiao's hand with one hand, raised my other hand and pinched Ellie's hand, and walked up to the magic array.
A strange sensation came up from his heels.
It was as if there was some static electricity, swishing along the surface of the skin.
Liu Xiao hurriedly pinched my hand with both hands, and could understand that she also felt this discomfort.
"This magic was done to compensate for the missing part of the traction in the Dawn Mountains"
The elf's voice sounded even weaker than it had been before.
"I'll probably tell you, listen carefully, I won't be able to sustain this magic for long."
"The heart of magic is a crack in the air, you should have seen it just now"
Oh...... It's something like a hole in the atmosphere, and the air around it seems to have burrowed into a sewer to form a huge spherical vortex there.
"Originally, when this magic was connected to the magic flow of the Dawn Mountains, it would form a siphon-like pull that would directly pull you over."
"But now this force is extremely weak"
"So I created five more streams of energy to form a thrust that pushed you through the rift."
Doesn't sound like a big deal.
"And then there's one of the biggest problems"
Belch...... Well, when I didn't say anything.
"Normally, because of the siphon force, the edges of the fissures are very flat, like water coming out of a faucet, forming a stable surface naturally."
"Now I suddenly realize that without this power, the rift is very sharp, as if it were ...... It's icy, and there's a lot of jagged in it."
Well, that's really bad news for us.
"That's why I made this magic circle."
The elf pointed to the blue magic circle beneath our feet.
"It will cover you with an isolation layer, and the magic of this barrier is not exclusive to the magic used to build the portal."
"So it should be able to keep you out of the danger inside the rift."
It should be possible, these three words seem a bit unreliable.
"But now there's another problem"
Hey, there's no end......
"That is, once you enter the rift, the mana supplied by my magic array will lose its purpose, and you need to use your magic power to maintain my magic"
Listening to him say this, we are annoyed.
"But, for some reason, Ellie can't do such a precise mana control now"
I interjected to remind the elf of the dire state of the moment.
"So ......"
Max seems to have thought about how to overcome this dilemma?
"It's all up to you"
Well?
I looked back and there was no one else there.
"Huh?"
That's when I reacted.
"You mean me?"
The elf nodded.
Whew――
The pressure is high.
"Wait, that means Liu Xiao is also ......?"
The elf nodded again.
"Can we go back to the Dawn Mountains any other way?"
I have decided to resolutely abandon this option.
The elf shook his head.
"If you're talking about the Aurora Gate, that giant magic needs to be opened by the Overseer and the Executor."
"The worst thing is that not long ago, it seems that all the executors received orders and went back to the Dawn Mountains"
"Besides, even if there is an executor, I don't have such a powerful magic to cooperate with the opening of the door"
"But can you open this portal?"
"This is the magic of our Spruce Family"
"It's always in our family's territory, it's a huge tower"
"In other words, in the Aurora World, the magic that maintains this portal has been constructed, and I just opened the portal."
What should I do, do I have to do it?
"It's a risk, isn't it?"
The elf, named Max, looked at me earnestly, and then said earnestly, word by word.
"I believe that Issadur has the ability to defend our princess"
Woo......
Well, I lost.
Get out!
"Got it, teach me how to maintain magic."
Liu Xiao squeezed my hand and stared at me with a different look.
But after we looked at each other for a few seconds, her eyes were half-open again.
The spell wasn't complicated, and as Max said, it wasn't a big deal.
But Ellie's magic cooldown also had a huge effect on me.
Only the curve can save the country, let my guardian elves help me execute this spell together.
'Mogore'
I silently called out the name of the guardian elf in my heart.
In anticipation, there were bursts of laughter.
It's a lot of trouble.
Unlike Xu Xuedong and Kong Yunlei, I can still grind my mouth when facing them.
But now I'm going to face my own Patron Elves.
What was I thinking, how could I possibly fool him.
He just doesn't want to help me anyway......
'You want me to ...... Sustain...... Back to the ...... of the Dawn Mountains Procedure?...... Can help'
Not at all like a voice coming from the throat, but more like a withering sound from the friction of bones.
Alas?
Who are you, how could you agree so easily, this thing must not be my guardian elf!
In my mind, a guy dressed in faded aristocratic clothes staggered out of a forest full of fog and thorns.
The hair braided into countless braids seemed to have hardened, and it made a tiny sound along with the various trinkets on his body.
The old elf's face was like a weathered rock, peeling off little by little.
It's still the same nasty face, and it's still the kind of laugh that makes people crazy.
But now that he's willing to help, I'm sure I can only be grateful.
'Save ...... Thank you, I don't need ...... That kind of thing'
His laughter stopped, as if I wanted to thank him for the utter nausea he had made.
In the biting chill, a slight smile regained on his face.
But that laughs......
It feels like a huge net is about to sweep me away......
"Imp?"
"Brother?"
Well?
The two of them, one pinching my hand and the other pulling my face, seemed to be playing with the wooden man.
"How long have I been distracted?"
"It's been a long time"
Liu Xiao looked at me worriedly.
"Uh...... It's okay, it's okay...... By the way, my Patronus has promised to help me maintain my magic."
"Oh?"
Ellie raised an eyebrow in surprise.
"That guy will help you?"
Sure enough, it's Princess Ellie, really sharp.
I also felt it, as if my Patronus had promised to help me, not just for my good.
He's probably thinking about something......
But now I can't care about so much, although he has ill intentions, but after all, he and I have a parasitic symbiotic relationship, and it is certain that it will not harm my life.
"Okay?"
Max asked again.
The sweat on his face began to fall one by one.
It looks like we're really running out of time.
"Hmm!"
"So let's get started"
