Chapter 426: Yingqi Orb (10,000 Words Big Chapter Asking for Subscription)
How do you determine if a creature is completely Phyrexianized?
For most ordinary people, as long as they observe whether the epidermis of the target's body is peeling off and whether it is covered by a large amount of metal or inorganic matter, they can basically confirm everything.
But this is obviously not rigorous, and it is easy to classify those who are still saved.
In particular, the inhabitants of Mirrodin have a habit of transforming themselves, so it cannot be used as a basis for judgment.
What's more, the oil also has an extremely special ability similar to "hive thinking", which will create spies that can break the opponent's blockade and isolation according to the change of the environment and the enemy's tactics.
These Phyrexian creatures look like real people on the surface, but when they are X-rayed, they reveal a large number of strange structures made of metal and inorganic matter in their bodies.
So for the residents of Steel City, who are experienced in struggle, there is a simpler and more direct way to determine whether a group of refugees who want to come in are completely infected by the oil and are hopeless.
That is to pierce the heart from the chest with a very thin, very long needle.
If it's stopped by something hard, its heart has been replaced by an oil engine, and it's a New Phyrexian spy who wants to infiltrate it.
In the same way, if the needle is inserted into the heart and pulled out, there is black oil on the tip of the needle, then the person is also hopeless.
Even the plum lilai, which is able to clear the oil infection to a certain extent, is powerless to infiltrate the heart and brain.
As for the dangerous act of plunging a needle into the heart, which can lead to arrhythmia and sudden death, it is nothing in the current situation where survival is seriously challenged.
After all, no matter what race it is, anyone who can survive in the cruel world of Mirrodin, where most of the region is covered in metal, is far more physically fit than their counterparts or close relatives in other worlds.
Among them, the metal is used to strengthen and transform their bodies without anesthesia, and all of them are "ruthless".
So for them, a penetrating heart injury the size of a pinhead like this is nothing.
Some of the crazier tribes will even insert a metal tube into their hearts and use the magic of this world to connect directly to their arms or thighs, so that the muscles of their limbs can be more explosive when needed.
"Natural selection of the fittest", a cruel natural selection of the fittest, can be said to have been embodied to the extreme in the Mirrodin space.
If a newborn baby is not strong enough to survive to adulthood, the mother who gave birth to him will abandon him within a few hours.
Because in this world, access to food is a very dangerous and difficult thing.
No tribe would allow the waste of food that was already scarce to feed a waste that could not fight, could not hunt, and could not do heavy physical labor.
However, for Zuo Si, it doesn't have to be a hassle to determine whether a creature is "Phyrexianized".
Just try to use the power of the Great Devil to extract the soul and see if the other party reacts.
After all, the greatest characteristic of Phyrexian creations is that they have no souls at all.
But when he came to Glisa, Zuo Si was instantly taken aback, and found that the situation of this Dark Bi Elf was much more complicated than he expected.
First of all, she was indeed infected by the oil as expected, and the infection was very serious, even the most important organ in her body, the heart, was replaced by the oil engine, and the blood vessels were completely turned into oil pipes.
There wasn't a drop of blood in it, it was all black grease.
It can be said that with the exception of the praetors who stood at the pinnacle of domination, Zuoth had never seen the inner structure of that New Phyrexian creature that could use the oil so efficiently.
But the interesting thing is that there is some powerful mysterious force that protects Glisa's soul, so that even when more than 90% of the body is completely "compleatized", the soul still does not completely detach from the body.
Of course, this protection is not without limits.
If the infection and transformation progress is 100%, she will still be as soulless as the other Phyrexian high creations, and may even become one of the praetors.
Secondly, Zuo Si also discovered that the oil in Glisa's body at this moment was not one, but three or even four.
The most primitive and largest of them all, you don't need to ask to know that it must be the primordial Phyrexian oil that seeped out of the heart of the Silver Golem Karn.
It is followed by about 35 percent, which is composed of localized "constructival bacteria", a by-product of glistening oil.
The third, less than 10 percent, is the new oil that Urabath quietly infiltrates the core of Mirrodin and secretly throws in it for a second infectation.
In addition, the combination of the above three types of oil is still producing a wonderful and incredible change in the continuous repeated infection of each other, and is forming a fourth light silver oil that has never been seen before.
The reason why Glisa fell into a coma and didn't wake up for a long time was the result of different types of oil "hive thinking" competing for dominance.
Her soul did not detach from her body, also because the new oil played a role in absorbing and protecting the soul to a certain extent.
Although Zuo Si didn't know what the situation of the several praetors led by Norn was in the depths of the earth.
But from Glisa's body, it is already 100% certain that the secondary infection has begun unconsciously.
It's no wonder that New Phyrexia's assault on Mirrodin has been weakening significantly lately.
It turned out that it wasn't the Praetors who were plotting something, but that there was something wrong with the oil, the core of their existence.
It can also be said that the new oil is slowly replacing the old oil, controlling the metal-dominated time and space under your feet.
When the infestation is complete, Zoth will become a veritable god of Mirrodin, like the dead "Father of Phyrexia" Yagmoth, as well as the creator and absolute ruler of the New Phyrexian forces.
Karn, a special construct created by the Ancient Brigade mage Urza and said to be made up of Thran legacy, artifacts, and superweapons, will also become his possession.
Especially the [Tongzhao], which can instantly tear apart a planet and even its attached space-time, and has a power of more than tens of trillions of Tsar hydrogen bombs exploding at the same time, he has been coveting it for a long time.
"Interesting...... Let me see what is hidden in your body or soul. β
Ignoring the nervous gazes of the Darkbi elves around him, Zuo Si hurriedly put on special gloves made of Plum Ley's blood and part of his hair to prevent accidental contamination by old glitter oil during dismantling and experimentation, and gently tore through Glisa's metal shell, which was a mixture of red copper and gray colors.
Moment!
A huge engine completely soaked in black tumbling oil was revealed, instantly causing the crowd of onlookers to gasp.
Whether it was the Darkbi elves who saw this woman as a hero and savior, or the other races who had been blessed by her, they couldn't help but look sad, painful, and desperate.
Although they are emotionally unacceptable, they also know that a person's body is transformed into this way, and it is undoubtedly 100% hopeless.
Several people suspected of having been in contact with Glissa couldn't help but sobbed and shed tears.
Zuo Si didn't care at all about the reactions of ordinary people who were watching, but concentrated on constantly casting detection magic, searching for things he was interested in in this body.
It didn't take long for him to pull out what looked like a silver, translucent sphere, hidden in the deepest part of the flesh-and-metal structure near his lower abdomen.
Although when it was first removed, it didn't look very big, just a lap bigger than a tennis ball.
However, when exposed to air, it begins to expand rapidly, eventually revealing a giant sphere with a diameter of one and a half meters.
The outermost layer is like a smooth mercury mirror, which clearly reflects the shadows of everything around it.
Once the volume was settled, the blinding magical aura began to unleash an invisible force that affected every creature that saw it.
It's a strong desire to get it!
It's an irrepressible possessiveness!
Whether it was Zuo Si himself or the originally respectful refugees around him, without exception, they all had an urge to take this sphere for themselves.
Fortunately!
Zuo Si was extremely vigilant against this kind of mental and spiritual influence, and immediately regained his consciousness through the protection and divine power he had built, and easily released a powerful spell to shield the energy released by the sphere.
Just a second later, the rest of the affected people also came to their senses and shivered uncontrollably.
"What the hell is this?!"
Melirai's face was full of shock and fear.
Zuo Si pursed the corners of his mouth with undisguised joy, and replied meaningfully: "If I guessed correctly, it should be the famous [Yingqi Orb].
An artifact that can 100% replicate all magic, creations, and even double the magical energy of a certain area in an instant.
The former ruler of Mirrodin, whom you consider the Tyrant of Destruction, was made out of this thing.
It possesses unimaginably great power, and it is also a treasure that all spellcasters and even traveling mages crave.
I think the reason why Glisa's soul has lasted so long is eighty percent due to the [Reflection Orb].
After the last Mirrodin event, Karn, the creator of this plane, transformed Monaco back into the Orb of Wonder and gave it to Glissa and Sloopa for safekeeping.
Moreover, there was still an ember of a spark left in the [Reflection Orb] in front of him. β
As one of the most famous artifacts, how amazing is the power of the [Reflection Orb]?
Among other things, the mere fact that all magic can be copied directly by paying mana of that color is enough to prove its value to the caster.
Note!
It's all magic!
If you take the spell casting system of the Faren Continent as an example, whether it is arcane or divine magic, whether it is from zero ring to nine rings, or legendary magic above it, all of them can automatically realize the "super magic technique - spell twin", and other super magic skills can be superimposed on this basis.
Just imagine how terrifyingly overwhelming it would be in a top-tier spell duel when someone else can cast one spell and you can release two.
Especially those powerful legendary magics, smashed down in two consecutive moments, it is estimated that even the dragon king with amazing vitality will not be able to withstand it.
In addition, this copy not only includes spells cast by oneself, but also works on magic items and scrolls.
This also means that after obtaining the [Reflection Orb], when you use a storage item or a Xinbu spell sequencer to release a large number of spells to bombard the enemy in one go, the effect will be directly doubled on the original basis.
"So...... Can this oil-infested female elf be saved? Melirai asked in a tone of uncertainty.
Obviously, the focus of this red-haired girl's attention has not been on the [Yingqi Orb] from beginning to end.
Because although she has barely learned some spells, she has no ambitions, and she is very satisfied with the current state of life.
Zuo Si shook his head slightly: "No, it's too late."
Her soul was still there, but it had been scattered and stored in some of the oil, and it was almost impossible to extract it completely.
But the good news is that she can retain some degree of self-awareness, rather than becoming one of those puppets manipulated by the praetors. β
"What are you going to do with her?"
The kind-hearted Melirai obviously had a trace of reluctance in her eyes.
"It's very simple, send them to the laboratory and lock them up to prevent the uncontrolled oil in Glisa's body from flowing out and infecting others. As for the rest, we'll wait until she wakes up. β
With that, Zuo Si raised his hand and snapped his fingers.
Syllable!
With a crisp sound, several soulless constructs that looked like metal golems, but had actually been compleated by the new oil, came out of the laboratory, dragged the heroine who had saved all the creatures of the Mirrodin plane last time, and cleaned up the remaining oil on the ground.
An older-looking Darkbi elf who looked like a clan leader stepped forward and cautiously asked, "Master, will Grissa survive?" β
"Of course. It may be a little different from what you think of it to be alive, but I assure you that her soul will be reborn in a new body. β
Zuo Si gave an affirmative answer without thinking.
"As long as I can survive. Thank you! Thank you so much! β
The elder knelt down with a large group of elves and bowed to the ground, then quickly turned and left, heading to their gathering place inside the Iron City.
Seeing that the crisis has been properly handled, and the rest of the races have also been evacuated in an orderly manner under the command of the tribal leader, what should they do?
After all, they have to work hard to get the food and clean water they need to survive, so they don't have time to waste here.
After all the crowd astigmatized, Zuo Si activated the unique ability of spark connection and resonance, injected mana to rekindle the embers of the remaining sparks in the [Reflection Orb], turning it into a LV1 travel mage spark and inhaling it into his body.
You don't need to ask to know that this spark is the one that Glisa ignited at the critical moment.
Later, after Karn was resurrected with his powers, its power was nearly depleted, and only a little ember remained in Sloopa's body.
When leaving the center of the earth was attacked, Sloopa shoved the spark ember into the [Wonder Orb] and returned it to Glisa before dying.
If it weren't for Zuo Si's intervention, according to the original plot, this spark ember should have been completely extinguished with Glissa's "Phyrexianization".
But now, it became the third Brigade Mage Spark that Zuo Si had successfully collected.
As for the attributes, you don't have to ask to know that it definitely tends to be green.
This spark has been changing hands since its inception, and each owner has been held for so short a time that they don't have time to make any cards.
As a result, it is empty, as clean as many people's wallets and bank cards.
Just when Zuo Si was about to ask where the hunting party found Grissa, Elspeth Tilry, who had watched the play for a long time, finally couldn't help but ask: "You are Thorth, the lord and king of this city?" β
"My name is South, yes. But how do I not know that I am a lord or a king here? Zuo Si raised his eyebrows and asked rhetorically.
Ai Zi was slightly stunned, and subconsciously replied: "But the residents here call you the master or the adult." They respect and love you, believing that you have saved all the people who have fled here, and have given them the food and water they need to work and survive. β
Zuo Si sneered and shook his head: "No, you are wrong, it is just a misjudgment made by the refugees based on their wrong perceptions."
I have never recognized myself as lord of this land, nor have I ever promulgated a single law or rule, let alone declared myself a king.
The city of steel you see was built entirely by the people who fled the New Phyrexian attack.
Rules and laws are also established by the leaders of various races in consultation with each other, based on a mutually acceptable universal value and morality.
All I offered was to trade my work for the necessities of life, and in the first place punished tribes who wanted to grow quickly by plundering.
I have never promised to protect the Iron City, nor do I have any obligation or responsibility to the people here, except to protect the lab from enemy attacks. β
Hearing this, Elspeth was stunned.
Because she couldn't believe that the place in front of her, which she regarded as the only "paradise" in the entire Mirrodin plane, had no lord, king, or any ruling class.
But even so, there is no sign of chaos in the Steel City, but it is in order under the joint maintenance of all the refugees.
There were no pickpockets and thieves, and there were no bullying and robbery of the vulnerable.
No one can sit back and enjoy the fruits of their labor or exploit the fruits of others' labor.
All people have to work hard in exchange for what they need.
Such a social environment close to absolute fairness was something that Elspeth had never seen in other time travels, so it was inevitable that Zuo Si, who had established all this, would have developed a strong interest in it.
But now, when she learned the truth, she fell into a strong sense of unreality, and at the same time a sense of absurdity that could not be described in words surged in her heart.
Why?
Why is it that in many times and spaces, the rulers have been unable to achieve the ideal state of society with all their might, but here they have easily achieved it without any outside interference?
I don't understand!
Can't figure it out!
The fierce collision of ideas made Elspeth stand in place for a long time, and he couldn't get half a word out of his mouth.
"What, can't you figure it out?"
Zuo Si fiddled with the [Yingqi Orb], reducing its size to the size of his palm, and asked without looking back.
"Please tell me why!"
Elspeth bent down and bowed deeply.
Feeling the powerful power contained in the palm of his hand [Yingqi Orb], Zuo Si patiently explained: "Actually, the reason is very simple.
When these refugees fled here, they were basically in a state of being left with nothing to lose.
To put it another way, they are all proletarians through and through, and there is no way to guarantee their own survival.
And at this time, I gave them the only way to survive, which was to work in exchange for food and water.
In order to survive, the refugees had no choice but to do what I told them to do.
When I got food and drink for the first time after the work was done, I successfully established a mutual trust contract with them.
As long as you work hard, then everyone will survive and will live better than before.
Gradually, when those who came first, had better physical fitness, and were able to work hard, began to accumulate knowledge, they would seriously consider how to ensure the safety of their property.
Perhaps in the beginning, when the number of people in the colony was relatively small, they needed to use my military deterrence to warn the tribes who were accustomed to raiding for a living.
But as the number of refugees increases, laws and rules improve, and more and more people need to protect their property, a strong social consensus will be formed in the City of Steel.
At this time, whoever wants to snatch and steal again, what awaits them will be the most severe punishment.
On top of that, all these necessities for survival, whether it's food or clean drinking water, are consumed every day without yielding.
And the only way I can get it consistently is to work for me.
As long as I do not frantically oppress and enslave these refugees, or suddenly cut off their supplies, then they will always be in a very stable and almost absolutely fair social environment.
Because no one but me can really control wealth and resources, let alone hold power for a long time and use it as a tool for personal gain.
So don't think that this is achieved by some clever means or wisdom.
Quite the opposite!
It is achieved through the formation of a strong monopoly and 100 per cent domination of resources.
Often, a person who can do this can be called a tyrant or a lifelong person.
Believe me, if such a guy appears in a certain country or even in the world, it will probably not be a good thing. β
"Are you saying that you are not a good person in disguise?"
The expression on Elspeth's face was very strange, as if she was looking at a monster.
Zuo Si nodded expressionlessly: "That's right." I suggest that you should not have any unrealistic illusions about me, and do not feel that I am selflessly saving these refugees. Unlike you, I have a strong sense of purpose in everything I do. β
Hearing this, Elspeth burst out laughing and teased in a half-joking tone, "Okay."
I've seen a lot of hypocrites in my life who claim to be kind and righteous, but secretly do some dirty things.
But you are the first one who admits that you are not a good person when you first meet, but in fact you are helping others.
Whatever your motives, it would be a great act of kindness to keep so many war-torn people alive.
I don't know exactly what means you're using to bring in plenty of food, water, and other supplies from other planes.
My name is Elspeth Tilry, and I'm looking for a traveling mage who can live in quiet seclusion.
It's a pleasure to meet you, not a good man, Lord Soss. β
"I don't really want to get to know you, Miss Lespeth Tilry."
Zuo Si deliberately pretended to be embarrassed.
It is clear that from the moment they met, he was using all sorts of psychological techniques to induce the other person to inevitably develop a strong curiosity about himself.
As for the purpose, of course, it is to quickly draw in the relationship between each other, and by the way, study the [Chengyang Sword] that is enough to kill the gods.
Of course, this sword will not be called this name until it is reforged by Heliod, the sun god of the Theros plane.
Instead, it should be called the Sword of Chaos.
But the power contained within it that could harm the essence of the gods has long existed.
"Oh? Why? We've seen it before? β
Elspeth asked in a tone of uncertainty.
Zuo Si pretended to shrug his shoulders casually and responded, "Although I haven't seen it, I've heard of your name." Before coming to Mirrodin, you must have lived in the world of Bent's Shard on the time and space of Arara for a long time, right? β
"Yes."
Hearing the name "Bent", Esspeth's originally bright pupils suddenly dimmed.
Because the place dominated by white mana is full of order and camaraderie, and the relationships between people are extra simple.
Once upon a time, she thought it was the ideal retreat she had been looking for.
But who knows, this beautiful life has completely disappeared with the merger of the five fragmented worlds.
With the influx of mana from other colors, the people who inhabit Bant are no longer as innocent as they once were, but are becoming increasingly evil and full of lust.
Coupled with the covert manipulation of the elder ronnicol Bolas, the battle that broke out between them reminded Elspeth of the painful experience of her youth, so she finally chose to leave.
"If you don't mind, can you tell me what happened to Araru when you left?"
Zuo Si deliberately asked with a casual look.
No doubt he wanted to find out if Nicol Bolas's plan to devour the energy of that world had succeeded or failed.
"I'm sorry, but I don't know much about Araru.
But according to another Leon Brigade mage, Goldmane Ajani, he has locked down the mastermind behind the plot.
If you want to know more, you can ask him yourself.
At least in my opinion, Arara didn't end up being destroyed, just that the magical energy had become a little thinner than before.
In particular, the mana of black, red, and blue has been reduced by about half. β
Elspeth didn't hide anything, and told all the information she knew in one breath.
"Cut it in half?"
Zuo Si keenly grasped the key words, and instantly understood that Nicol Bolas had succeeded.
It's a world with a lot of mana.
This also means that the old dragon has gotten rid of his weakest state and has once again become the formidable terrifying Dragon Venerable.
With the energy he absorbed, he was enough to beat more than ninety-nine percent of the new generation of Brigade Mages.
Elspeth obviously didn't know what Nicol Bolas was planning, and subconsciously asked, "Is there a problem?" β
"No, nothing.
By the way, you haven't eaten anything decent in a long time, right?
Why don't you have a treat with me today and have a delicious and hearty meal together? β
A faint light flashed in Zuo Si's eyes, and he quickly chose to change the topic.
Mei Lilai, who was on the side, immediately swallowed her saliva when she heard it, clapped her hands excitedly and shouted, "Okay! All right! It's been a long time since I've tasted that kind of deliciousness! β
"Don't you want to know me? Why are you still inviting me to dinner? Wouldn't it be better to just drive me away? β
Elspeth stared curiously into Zuo Si's eyes.
Under the latter's elaborate inducement, she now very much wanted to find out what kind of person the young traveling mage in front of her was, and why she always gave herself a different feeling.
"Kick you away?
Now the whole of Mirrodin is undergoing an unprecedented upheaval.
The praetors who call themselves New Phyrexia are waging war everywhere.
Unless you choose to leave this plane, there is simply no other place to go.
I couldn't even find food to eat and water to drink.
Let's go, even if you want to leave, you have to fill your stomach first. β
With that, Zuo Si pretended to be very casual and patted Elspeth on the shoulder, and then walked straight into the living area inside the laboratory.
When Elspeth arrived at the table, thinking that the so-called "big meal" would have to wait for at least an hour or two, she suddenly saw Zuo Si's hands release a dazzling white light, and at the same time muttering some syllables that she couldn't understand.
Next Second......
Countless sumptuous dishes, fruits and drinks fill the long table of more than 10 meters.
The pungent fragrance and umami that came to her face made her whole person fall into a sluggish state for half a minute, and then she suddenly opened her mouth and stammered, "Is this ...... Is this some kind of creation magic? No! Should I say that magic can really create such a hearty and perfect food? β
"It's called the Hero's Feast, and it's a high-level magic given to the priest by the gods of my world.
Before the meal begins, allow me to say a word of congratulations as the host.
Welcome to Mirrodin, Miss Elspeth Tilry, and may you have a good appetite today.
I also hope you find what you've been looking for here. β
After saying this, Zuo Si raised the glass full of wine and touched it lightly with the other party, and then put it on his lips and took a small sip.
When the dark red liquid entered the mouth and came into contact with the tongue, an indescribable smell filled Elspeth's mouth, so that she couldn't help but pour a large glass of wine down, and a faint flush suddenly appeared on her fair face.
She swears she's never drunk such delicious and addictive wine.
However, in order to hide her embarrassment, the female brigade mage hurriedly forked a piece of meat chop and took a bite in her mouth.
Moment!
The tender meat and delicious sauce almost made her swallow her tongue together.
It was only at this moment that Elspeth finally understood why Meliret was so happy to hear that there was a big meal.
This kind of magically created food is not at all something that ordinary chefs can make.
Even if you pass the craft, I'm afraid it's hard to find enough good ingredients and a lot of condiments.
In line with the principle that someone treats someone and doesn't eat for nothing, Elspeth soon became a foodie with Melira, picking the things that bring the ultimate enjoyment and stimulation to the taste buds and stuffing them into her mouth, and occasionally exchanging dishes with each other to taste better.
Zuo Si only symbolically accompanied him for a while, and soon got up and said goodbye and walked out of the closed laboratory.
When he came to an empty and uninhabited place outside the city, he immediately stopped, turned his head and stared straight into the dark corner, and asked in a tone without a trace of emotion, "When are you going to hide?" β
Next Second......
A man with a terrifying rosy glow in his eyes, his right arm and most of his body completely transformed into a metal mechanical structure, and even the sparks of his traveling mage could be seen flickering wildly.
And those metals are the specialty of the Arara's time and spaceβethyl gold.
No doubt!
There is only one traveling mage with this special appearance, and that is the genius artifact master, Tezzeret.
However, this guy's current state is a bit miserable, not only was he amnestically cleaned by Jace Beleren, but he was also used and squeezed by the old dragon Nicol Bolas as a pawn.
"On my master's orders, I have come to Mirrodin to investigate the infestation of the oil and the threat of New Phyrexia."
Tezzeret was blunt.
In his blank memory and cognition, he didn't know who this guy in front of him was, and instinctively felt that the other party was the same as himself, a traveling mage who worked for Nicol Bolas.
"So what? What does this have to do with me? Zuo Si asked quietly and rhetorically.
"I need your help. In particular, the girl named Merirai seems to have the ability to be immune to oil infections and remove oil from other people's bodies. Hand her over to me, I'm going to do some experiments. β
Tezzeret unceremoniously asked.
In his opinion, the other party has no reason to refuse at all.
But after listening to this, Zuo Si suddenly let out a contemptuous sneer: "Hehe, who do you think you are?" You want to ask me for something at no cost? β
"What do you mean? Aren't you going to cooperate with me? β
Tezzeret's face suddenly became unusually gloomy and dangerous.
You know, he's not a good guy.
He fought Nicol Bolas at his weakest state in the plane of Arara, and the massive mana he gained from merging with the world of the Fragment of the Igri Pole nearly overturned the old dragon.
"I'm a very simple person. If you want to take something from me, you can either trade it for someone or something that I think has enough value, or you can win and take it from me. Which one are you going to choose? β
As he spoke, Zuo Si raised his hand and took on a fighting stance, and terrifying magical energy gathered around his body in just a few seconds.
"Humph! Very good! Then I'll convince you! Be careful, I'm very heavy, and if you accidentally die, you can't blame me. β
Tezzeret's face suddenly appeared with a hideous expression, and he raised his arm that had been transformed from etheric gold and slowly pulled out an extremely thick arc of energy, and then threw it at Zuo Si fiercely.
Syllable!
After a crisp sound, he saw a layer of ethermetal, barely visible to the naked eye, forming a layer of protection in front of his opponent, perfectly blocking his attack.
Acetonic Shield?!
Seeing this kind of spell that only the casters of his homeland are good at in Mirrodin, Tezzeret suddenly showed a shocked expression.
After all, the substance of ethyl gold, even in the origin of Arara, is a very rare, expensive, and rare thing.
Many spellcasters spend their entire lives simply trying to obtain an Ether Heart and then enter the Know-It-Sense Society to become a member of it.
"You seem surprised?"
There was a hint of banter in Zuo Si's tone.
"Where did you get the ether and related spells?"
Tezzeret asked, narrowing his eyes.
"Alaru, of course.
Could it be that there is a second plane in this universe that will produce the interesting magical metal of ethyl gold?
Ignorant fool, today I will show you the insurmountable gap between me and you.
Remember, be polite and respectful next time you speak.
Otherwise, I wouldn't mind tearing your body apart, digging up your spark, and telling Nicol Bolas that he could find a new servant. β
As the last word blurted out, Zuo Si suddenly opened his arms and took out a large amount of ethylene gold from the satchel he was carrying, forming a huge and extremely complex structure around him.
"This ...... How is this possible! β
Tezzeret was dumbfounded.
He even pumped his mouth to make sure it wasn't a dream or hallucination.
You must know that in order to make up the gold needed to transform his body and arms, he doesn't know how much effort he made and how many small actions he made in private, and finally got it together.
But now, a foreigner can easily take out dozens or even hundreds of times the amount of gold.
It is not difficult to judge from the skillful and delicate manipulation that the other party knows 100% about the magic of ether.
The problem is, Tezzeret is sure that the young traveling mage is definitely not one of the senior members of the Supreme Knowledge.
"Be careful, don't die, I'm also very heavy."
Zuo Si drew terrifying red mana from the mana pool, and then injected it into the huge and complex structure of the gold spell.
Before Tezzeret could react, a blinding red light converged from countless etheric threads to the very tip of the entire structure, forming a mass of energy that exuded an aura of destruction.
Because red mana is inherently synonymous with destruction, chaos, passion, and impulse, it's often far more terrifying in terms of impact than other four-colored mana.
"Damn it!"
Tezzeret, who realized that this attack was not a small fight, instantly broke out in a cold sweat, and without even thinking about it, quickly activated a few cards hidden in the palm of his hand.
In the blink of an eye, the four acetonic shields were in front of him, layer after layer.
Just when this guy wanted to activate more protective spells, Zuo Si launched the red light cluster.
The energy mass flew out at a speed beyond the sound, crashing straight into the acetonic shield in front of Tezzeret, pushing it thousands of meters into the air.
The speed and brightness were so high that the inhabitants of the Steel City mistakenly thought that a meteor had crossed by, and they stopped to watch.
After rising to a certain height for about ten seconds, the red energy mass that had been stable under the action of the Etherium device showed its most terrifying side.
Rumble!!!!!!!!!!!
Scorching flames, shock waves, and a bright light as bright as the sun swept directly over and covered a radius of two or three kilometers overhead.
The deafening sound continued to echo through the hollow interior of Mirrodin, making people can't help but cover their ears and squat on the ground with a painful expression.
By the time it all had dissipated, Tezzeret was long gone.

Of course, the reason why he is so tough is that he wants to keep the secret of the new oil, at least not for Nicol Bolas.
