Chapter 285: The Second Barrier
"It's passed!"
Merlin breathed a sigh of relief, this time through the pass, it was indeed a bit of a trick, the flame man did not simulate the heart of darkness in Merlin's body, so Merlin was able to use the amplification effect of the heart of darkness on the dark spell to pass the first pass.
This also shows that the simulation ability of the first pass is not very perfect, at least, Merlin's Dark Heart, and Merlin's enhanced spell cannot be simulated.
The flame man's gaze was very hot, and he looked at Merlin deeply, and then said in a calm voice: "Yes, although you are suspected of cheating, this first pass is not intended for ordinary spellcasters. If I'm not mistaken, your Tide of Darkness spell is only a second-level spell, but it has such a powerful power, it must have been cultivated into the Heart of Darkness, right? ”
Merlin didn't answer, and acquiesced.
"Okay, let's go, you have passed the first level, but there are still two more passes waiting for you to break through!"
The Flame Man said as he stared at Merlin.
Merlin glanced at Mage Belton next to him, the other party couldn't break through the first pass no matter what, and leaving him here would undoubtedly be sent to death.
After a moment of silence, Merlin raised his head and asked the Flame Man, "If I pass three levels, can you send Mage Belton away?"
"Hehe, I can only tell you that there is hope, but only if you can beat three levels!"
Although the Flame Man did not answer directly, he also indirectly revealed a trace of information, as long as Merlin could break through the three levels. Then it is also possible for Master Betton to leave safely.
Come to think of it. Merlin then said to Master Belton, "Master Belton. You just wait here quietly, don't go through the level again. ”
Master Beyton nodded, with a hint of anticipation on his face, and said with a smile: "Master Merlin, go, I believe you will be able to break through the three levels!"
After a few brief explanations, Merlin followed behind the Flame Man and gradually left the room. Then he entered the long hallway, and then came to another somewhat dimly lit stone chamber.
This stone room was very dry, and there was a foul smell of dust in the air, and it seemed that no one had come in for a long time.
In the dry stone room, there are some flame totems carved into them, and these flame totems are so lifelike that they look as if they will really burn.
"Alright, this is the second level!"
After the Flame Man brought Merlin to the stone chamber, he spoke slowly.
"This is the second level, where is the Guardian?"
Merlin looked around for a moment. Didn't see any Guardians.
"Guardians, there are no Guardians in the second level, you just need this stone room. Just hold on for half an hour. In these flame totems, there will be blazing flames, and you can use spells, and even magic energy, but there is one point, you can't use defensive spellcasting tools, so you have to take off the two magic robes on your body. ”
The flame man briefly introduced the rules of this second level, which is actually to withstand the scorching of flames.
After seeing the rules of the second level, Merlin was even more sure in his heart that the owner of this ruin must have a very high attainment in fire spells, and it is likely that it will be some tests to withstand the scorching flames.
It's just that although Merlin has built fire-based spells, and even fire-based Pandora magic energy, he doesn't know whether he can withstand the scorching flames or not.
But now that they're all in the second level, Merlin wants to give it a try anyway.
"Come on, second level, I'm ready!"
Merlin said to the Flame Man with a solemn expression.
The Flame Man nodded, and then waved his hand violently, and the door to the stone chamber was immediately sealed.
"Activate, Flame Totem!"
As the flame man's words fell, the temperature of the entire stone room was rising rapidly, and the lifelike flame totems on the surrounding walls seemed to be "alive", and a trace of flame began to float out of the flame totem, permeating the entire stone room.
Merlin took a deep breath and immediately released the second-level earth-based spell Earth Curtain, and was ready to release the Polar Ice Finger at any time.
Soon, the flames enveloped Merlin, and Merlin's earth curtain cracked in an instant when it encountered these flames, and it didn't play a role at all.
Moreover, Merlin tried to release the frozen ice, but it was directly evaporated by the flames, unable to condense into ice crystals, and the power of these flames seemed to be even more terrifying than Merlin's extinguishing fire.
"Magic energy, Polar Ice Finger!"
As Merlin unleashed his Polar Ice Finger, the cold air could freeze some of the flames slightly, but soon a large number of flames swept in, completely melting the ice crystals.
"Even the Polar Ice Finger doesn't have any effect!"
Merlin gasped, he didn't plan to comprehend any flame mysteries in the flames at all, he was only a first-level spellcaster, where could he comprehend the mysteries of flames, I am afraid that even those seventh-level spellcasters would not comprehend the mysteries of the elements.
Perhaps, only those great archmages will comprehend the mystery of the elements, and the second level set up by the caster who left this relic has no effect at all in Merlin's opinion.
Originally, it was able to stop most spellcasters who wanted to beat the level.
Merlin didn't think about comprehending the mystery of the flames, he just wanted to see if he could use spells and magic to resist the burning of the flames, but now it seemed that it would not work at all, he could not resist the burning of these flames, once he let the flames get close, he would be burned to ashes by the flames in an instant.
"I throw in the towel!"
Merlin didn't hesitate and directly admitted defeat, he had three chances to break through, so naturally he wouldn't wait for death in vain.
As Merlin's words fell, all of a sudden, the surrounding flames quickly dissipated, and the temperature of the entire stone chamber also dropped rapidly, and soon returned to its usual temperature.
"Failed, but it's only the first time, you still have two more chances!"
The Flame Man's voice rang out again, as if it had long expected Merlin's defeat.
Merlin frowned. Shen Sheng asked, "The flame of the second level." I'm afraid it's not a fourth-level spell flame, right? It's actually stronger than my Flame of Destruction!"
Merlin's Flame of Disintegration is the most powerful spell of the fourth-tier spells. Including the Polar Ice Finger, but the Polar Ice Finger has no effect on the flames in the stone room, and those flames are more powerful than the extinguishing fire, so Merlin asked.
"It's nothing to tell you, the flames in the second level are completely simulated the flame power of fifth-level spells, and your two Pandora magic abilities are not right. It should be three kinds of Pandora magic energy, none of which have any effect. ”
The flame man did not hide it, and explained the flames in the stone chamber briefly.
"What? Simulate the flames of fifth-level spells? You are not allowed to use spell-casting tools yet, relying on spells alone, even if you add magic energy, I am only the first stage, at best, I can only be comparable to the peak of fourth-level spells, how can I resist these flames?"
When Merlin heard these flames, they were all comparable to fifth-level spells, and he knew it. He couldn't resist it no matter what, not only him. I'm afraid most of the casters won't be able to resist it.
The flame man looked very calm, and said slowly: "Your strength is comparable to that of a fourth-level spellcaster, so the flame of the second level is a fifth-level spell, if you are the strength of a third-level spellcaster, then the flame is only the power of a fourth-level spell." Some fourth-level spellcasters have Pandora's magical energy on their bodies, and they can also cultivate to the second stage, so this second level is relatively easy, but such a spellcaster, in the long years, has never been here. There are only three people who can break through the second level so far!"
"Three?"
Merlin's face was solemn, and his emotions gradually calmed down, if the second level is simpler than the first level, then how can it become the second level?
As the Flame Man said, this second level is not difficult to say, if there is a fourth-level spellcaster, who happens to have cultivated Pandora's magic energy, and has cultivated to the second stage, and it has to be a defensive Pandora's magic energy, it is easy to hold on for half an hour.
However, there are too few such spellcasters, and the Flame Man also said that such a caster has never been seen in a long time.
There are already three people who can pass the second level, although there are only a handful, but these three people can pass the second level, which also shows that the second level is not completely impossible to pass.
If you want to comprehend the mystery of the flame in the flame, it is simply impossible, and Merlin also believes that the three people who have passed the second level will definitely not comprehend anything in the flames, but have other ways.
Merlin pondered for a moment, then suddenly asked the Flame Man, "Have there ever been Rank 7 spellcasters here, and how did they get through the first and second levels?"
The Flame Man glanced at Merlin calmly, and then replied, "Yes, you can think of this, but you are much smarter than those stupid spellcasters. One of the people who have passed the second level is indeed a seventh-level spellcaster, but the first and second levels of the seventh-level caster are completely different. ”
Although the Flame Man didn't explain it very clearly, Merlin had already vaguely guessed in his heart that I am afraid that this place, like Bell Space, also has a limit.
And the limit is the seventh-level caster, in the first level, simulating the seventh-level caster, I'm afraid it's difficult, it can't be simulated at all, because every seventh-level caster's spell is built by the caster himself, it is unique, and it's too difficult and difficult to simulate.
"Okay, that's pretty much the same thing you asked, this second level has stumped most of the spellcasters, and if you can't get through, you'll have to stay here forever. See, those skeletons are the spellcasters who were previously trapped in the second level. ”
The Flame Man pointed to a corner outside the stone room, where countless skeletons were piled up, and they looked shocking, all of them were spellcasters trapped in the second level.
Merlin glanced at the Flame Man, then took a deep breath and said in a low voice, "Actually, if you want to break through the second level, it's not completely impossible!"
At this moment, Merlin had a relaxed smile on his face, and his expression seemed to reveal a hint of confidence.
[Can you guess where Merlin's self-confidence comes from?] (To be continued......)
