Soon, Sovax corroborated Lanlos's speculation.

When the battle between the Ethereal Spirit and the Demon broke out in front of the Stargazing Hall, it was a human with a white beard and rich robes, and these characteristics basically excluded Medivan in her youth.

As for the Ice Staff, although the description of its appearance is vague, it is consistent with the memories that Lanlos received from Alex's soul fragments.

I think that the old human mage is using the power of the Void Dragon and the Ebony Cold to try to repair the space-time distortion in this area.

Who would do such a thankless job?

Lanlos had a faint outline in his mind.

"With the help of phasing through the exploration of this area, my surviving compatriots and I have managed to escape the mage's sight for a week, but these remaining demons have been overly sensitive to the aura of magic and have found and raided our hiding place. Sovax sighed heavily as he looked at the bandages scattered on the ground.

Interestingly, while there are remnants of the Ethereal Spirits dropping after their demise, the bandages scattered around are not collected, except for armor and weapons.

Is it a custom? Lanlos didn't know, but secretly kept an eye on it.

"Have you been hiding all week?" the elf asked, glancing meaningfully at the large figure in the clearing behind the crowd.

"Not really. Sovax seemed to notice his gaze, waved for the group to get out of the way, and led the two of them closer, "As you can see, we've been preparing to break into the stargazing hall. ”

A large, thick and familiar figure came into view, and the earliest doubts that Lanlos had since stepping into the upper area were solved.

That's right, this thing in front of you is the curator.

Although parts of the limbs and torso had been dismantled and reassembled, the control panel that had been magically carved into the interior of the construct had not changed much, and Lanlos immediately recognized the constructed golem that had banished him from Karazhin.

Different from relying solely on magic drive in the past, the current curator is equipped with physical drive devices such as gears, pistons, and hydraulics on his body, especially in many parts of his limbs, in order to achieve maximum energy saving.

This is because in order to seize control of the curator, the Ethereal Spirit had to cut the connection between the Demon Web Hub and it. The problem is that the Ethereal Spirit came here suddenly, and it didn't carry any energy modules, plus it was difficult to escape, and all that could be used was a small energy lattice.

That is, the purple cube that was placed in the Curator's Power Forge right now.

The omniscient ability of the Eye of Dalaran allowed Lanloth to see the structure of this thing clearly in an instant, and the magic power was highly concentrated and transformed into a substance, similar to a mana crystal, but with a higher density and a more stable structure.

If it is absorbed by the Evil Energy Sacrifice, the cost of consuming and obtaining mana is much lower.

Conversely, however, this method of mana storage is also much safer, with no natural attrition even in areas where the Twisted Void or has a high concentration of evil energy.

"This thing looks pretty good, why didn't you use it just now?" The cyberpunk-style constructed puppet in front of him made Lanloth have a huge curiosity about ethereal technology.

"Although it slows down the energy consumption of the structure to the greatest extent, its size is too large, and it is estimated that it will not last more than 30 minutes by relying on the endurance of this energy lattice alone. Sovax shook his head and sighed, "We were hoping that this structure would break into the stargazing hall and buy time to get out of this place. If energy is wasted here, there is a good chance that there will never be a chance again. ”

Although the level of science and technology of the ethereal spirit is relatively high, but the current resources are extremely scarce, and the work of seizing the control authority of the curator and modifying the body has consumed a lot of their energy, and if they lose the only remaining energy, the remaining dozen or so people may never be able to break through the blockade.

Lanlos carefully looked at the modified curator, and then quickly found a problem: "But according to what you said, if that human mage's ice magic continues to strike at the construct, then its energy consumption should not be able to sustain it, right?"

The superb magic resistance of the constructs does not only rely on the metal body, the metal with high magic resistance is not picked up casually, the magic still depends on magic to defeat, and the magic circuit engraved on their body is the most important protection against magic. And these functions are all driven by energy.

"No, that mage isn't usually in the stargazing hall. Although Lallos's knowledge of the constructor surprised Sovax, he was relieved to remember that the High Elves of this world were already quite good at magic, "That mage will more often be nested in another closed library, as long as he allows the constructor to contain the Void Dragon before he reacts, our researchers will be sure enough to start the phase jump." "Bookbag nets

This seemingly feasible plan made Gianna frown: "This is also too many loopholes." ”

As soon as these words came out, the atmosphere around them suddenly became stagnant. Although he couldn't judge the expression of the ethereal spirit, Lan Luos's keen senses clearly detected the movements of the dozen or so people, and there was the same panic at that moment.

Especially the double-knife warrior who had been guarding the right rear of Sovax, his beam-like eyes subconsciously focused on Gianna's body.

Lanlos's eyes narrowed slightly, and he inadvertently moved his steps slightly forward from the position standing side by side with Gianna: "Oh? Why?"

The blonde girl lowered her head and pondered, not noticing that everyone's eyes were looking at her with inexplicable colors: "Since that mage has the ability to correct the chaos in the library, then he must be very proficient in the use of space magic, I'm afraid that when you just broke into the stargazing hall, he intervened through teleportation magic." ”

Hearing this, Sovax's gaze obviously fluctuated, and after a long silence, he let out a helpless dry laugh: "Of course we know this kind of thing. ”

"Could it be that?" the thoughtful Gianna raised her eyebrows and looked at the double-knife warrior beside her with a surprised face, "You plan to use the bait to attract the attention of that mage?"

Sovax bowed his head and remained silent, which was considered a tacit acquiescence.

Inexplicably feeling that the atmosphere had become oppressive, Gianna gritted her silver teeth, wanting to say something, but she didn't know where to start.

Seeing the eldest lady's big watery eyes looking at him with a plea for help, Lan Luos secretly laughed.

"In that case, why don't we intercept that mage?"

The elf's words broke the heaviness that filled the air, and the ethereals looked up at him, their flickering gazes not knowing whether it was gratitude or something else.

"How can this be?" Sovax looked surprised, "Although the two of them are very strong, if they want to deal with that mage, they must be more than lucky." ”

Although those demons had pushed the ethereal spirits into danger just like the mage, it didn't mean that the two sides were equal in strength. The Hellhound's restraint on magic severely curtailed the ethereal's combat power, but the mage relied on real strength to completely suppress it.

In the eyes of the ethereal spirit, the elf and human in front of him must not be the opponent of the mage.

Of course, they didn't know that Lanloth had Elunis in his hands that was even better than Ebony Cold, and they didn't know that he was also a legendary spellcaster.

"Don't worry, I didn't think I had to be tough. The surprise that the other party didn't seem to be fake made Lanlos relax a little, which meant that his disguise was perfect, "Since the other party is human, and he is so concerned about repairing Karazhan, I think there may be a possibility of peace talks between us." ”

"Besides, that staff of ice is probably the purpose of our trip, and one way or another, we will have to face him sooner or later. I can't say anything, but this time I have to thank you for keeping that Void Dragon in check. Seeing that the other party seemed to want to say something to stop him, Lanlos waved his hand and blocked the other party's advice.

"This ...... I really don't know what to do?" Sovax pondered for a long time before looking up, "Anyway, thank you for your kindness, I need to discuss the change of plan with you, please wait a moment." ”

Watching the Ethereal Spirit walk towards her compatriots' position to discuss, Gianna was secretly relieved, but at the same time glanced at the Elven Mage's side face with a little nervousness, hesitated for a moment, and then carefully tugged at his glove.

"That, thanks. ”

Although it was a whisper of muttering, after all, it was just a few words, and Lan Luos naturally did not miss it. Turning around, seeing the girl's fidgeting appearance with her lips pursed tightly, he touched his chin puzzled: "What are you thanking me for?"

Gianna was stunned for a moment, glared at him with a fierce glint in her eyes, then turned her head away, pursed her lips and snorted: "It's nothing!"

The childish eldest lady provoked Lan Luos to laugh, and then stopped teasing, and said with relief: "I'm just pushing the boat down the river, after all, we came all the way here for the cold of Ebony, since there are void spirits on the side to help us attract firepower, it will definitely not work to do it." Rest assured, this time it's not just for you, you don't owe me anything...... Huh?"

The eldest lady bowed her head slightly, and the golden bangs covered her clear eyes, but the exposed white tiger teeth projected a danger that could not be ignored, which instantly aroused Lan Luos's alertness: "What's wrong with you?"

"No, what, what!"
