Li Nuo called up his panel information and looked at the "Energy Value" column.

[Energy] 1,200,000,000,000/647 (100+547)

Energy is very well stocked.

However, compared to the amount needed to harmlessly deconstruct the "Hustle Tunnel", the inventory of 1.2 billion energy points is just a drop in the bucket.

There's one thing Li Nuo doesn't quite understand.

When the Assassination Angel mentions the "Noisy Tunnel", he says that Leno will have a possibility to obtain this "second plane" in the future.

But the "noisy tunnel" that now appears in front of Li Nuo is defined by the system as a "polluted field".

What is the process from the "pollution domain" to the "sub-plane"?

The "sub-planes" are the basis for the survival of powerful wizards.

The wizarding forces also have a foothold because of the "sub-plane".

Magic and the sub-planes are the cornerstones of the existence of the wizard's horizon.

Figuring out the origin of the sub-plane is equivalent to knowing part of the truth about this world.

"Sir, it seems that the polluted field has stopped expanding."

Norin interrupted Leno's thoughts and manipulated a spider machine to come to Leno's side, raising a spider leg and pointing into the distance.

There, the contaminated field of huge gray blood vessels and sores stagnated.

The gray veins form a majestic wall that obscures the view, and the entire stalagmite woodland and the windy plains are encompassed by the polluted realm.

The vicious swamp in which Li Nuo was now had just survived, and only a small part of it had been swallowed up by the polluted realm.

"Mobilize a Scout Robot and go in and explore the polluted area." Leno and Noreen says:

"Don't forget to use the magic scroll I gave you, Noreen. They protect your heart and soul from harm. ”

"Yes, sir. I'm ready. ”

Noreen sat on the second basement floor of Island 33, ready to protect herself with the "Psychic Shield" and "Soul Shield".

Although there is at least 5,000 kilometers in a straight line from the polluted field, Noreen must be so cautious given the existence of extraordinary factors.

There is no guarantee that the noise emitted by the "Noisy Tunnel" will not spread to Norein's psychic connection with the machine spirit.

After confirming that the shield had protected her, Noreen picked out a swift flying machine spirit and headed to the Polluted Realm.

During her operation, Li Nuo deliberated and decided to launch another harmless deconstruction.

[System News:]

[You spend 100 million energy points to launch a harmless deconstruction of the "Hustle and Bustle Tunnel". 】

[Your Innocuous Deconstruction Progress on Targets is increased to 0.02%]

【You have obtained the following solution results:】

[Negative effects of "Hustle and Bustle":]

["Endless Hustle":]

[After entering the "Hustle and Bustle Tunnel", you will feel the "Hustle and Bustle" that can never be dissipated. 】

["Hustle" ignores all kinds of magic shields and defenses, and forcibly inflicts two negative effects on you: "Casting Difficulty" and "Test of Will".] 】

["Cast Difficulty" increases your cast cost by 10 to 1000 times and extends cast channel time by at least 1 times.] 】

[The "Test of Will" will determine your "Will" attribute every 10 minutes.] If the decision is passed, the "will" will temporarily -10 points. If you don't pass the decision, you will take psychic damage and your "will" will be temporarily -20 points. 】

(The deconstruction is not complete enough to obtain more information)

…

"Shhhhh

Li Nuo gasped slightly.

A total of 200 million energy points were invested, in exchange for the name of the polluted field and some of the information on the negative effects.

Judging from the information available alone, the difficulty of the "noisy tunnel" is much higher than the pollution field that Li Nuo has experienced before.

The negative effect of "Cast Difficulty" alone can define "Noisy Tunnel" as a "Wizard's Forbidden Zone".

It would be absolutely unwise to use magical means to explore it.

In other words, any spellcaster who enters it is a life of death.

What about the Lords of Soler and the Soul Shaper in the middle of the Polluted Realm?

Aren't they located near the ritual when the polluted realm appears?

The answer to this question is not known for the time being.

The only thing Li Nuo can be sure of is that the main professor of the Soul Shaping Society, Jimat, must be safe and sound.

Because that guy just sent a magic clone here.

Seeing that it would take some time for the mechanical spirit controlled by Noreen to fly into the pollution field, Li Nuo simply took out a pen and paper and communicated with all parties.

Professor Erica has written to say that the Wizarding Forward Society has locked down the whereabouts of the Polluted Realm.

Just like the information provided by Li Nuo, the Pollution Domain is located in the Shadows, and it is just below the Thousand Peaks Collar.

At this time, the wizard team sent by the Wizard Forward Society is approaching the Pollution Realm.

It is estimated that after another half an hour, Li Nuo may encounter this group of wizards.

In addition, such as the Shadow Wizard Forces, which collect Shadow Energy, the Rock and Earth Wizard Forces, which have the ability to drill through slate layers, and the Pure Light Court, which likes to sweep the polluted realm strongly, etc., these Wizard Forces have also sent their own exploration teams.

In the letter, Professor Erica mentions that it would be better for Leno to adopt a strategy of avoidance and not face the wizarding team.

In particular, don't go head-to-head with the Pure Light Court.

In many cases, in order to be able to cover all the spoils in the polluted realm, the Pure Light Court will use various means to deal with the rest of the wizarding forces and wizards.

These tactics include, but are not limited to, forcibly taking away wizards who appear in the vicinity of the polluted realm under the pretext of "investigating the truth about what has appeared in the polluted field".

When Li Nuo read this paragraph, he sneered in his heart, he was used to the practice of the Pure Light Court.

In fact, Professor Erica didn't need to remind him that he would leave after a brief exploration of the "Hustle and Bustle Tunnel".

He's not the kind of reckless man who exposes his hole cards for the sake of loot.

"Sir, the Scout Robot Spirit is in place." Noreen sent a message from the heart.

Li Nuo threw out his "Psychic Vision" and looked at the mechanical spirit that stayed outside the polluted realm.

From the point of view of the mechanical spirit, the polluted realm is a terrible sight.

A howling wind swept past the machine spirit, kicking up dust and obscuring vision.

The gray blood vessels made of flesh and blood are sticky, slippery, and the surface is scattered with a dirty oily sheen.

The passages inside are wide and dim, with an eerie and filthy atmosphere.

The sores scattered on the outside of the blood vessels, the noise of the eruptive wind and the corrosive mucus caused the surrounding air to become more and more turbid.

Li Nuo watched carefully for a moment.

Aside from the cosmic noise and the whistling sound of the "noisy tunnel" that are necessary for the polluted realm, the polluted realm in front of it does not seem to cause much harm to the outside world.

"Come in, Noreen." Li Nuo said.

"Yes, sir."

Noreen manipulates the machine to fly into the nozzle of a gray vessel.

This machine spirit relies on the "Levitation Array" and the "Airflow Array" to float in the air.

At the moment when its figure disappeared into the veins, Noreen let out a low cry, and Li Nuo received a system message.

"Ah, show up, the machine spirit is missing." There was no pain in Noreen's voice, and it seemed that the loss of contact with the machine had not harmed her.

Li Nuo looked at the systematic words in his mind.

【Attention! 】

[Your "Scout Robot Spirit (No. 1344)" has been attacked by the "Hustle and Bustle Tunnel"!] 】

["Howl of Fusion" deals a fatal blow to the Machine.] 】

[Your machine spirit has been completely scrapped. 】

"Ulcer howl"?

Li Nuo raised his eyebrows, consumed energy, and launched a deconstruction technique.

…

Name: Ulcer howl

[Type] Mysterious side extraordinary ability

[Level] cannot be predicted at this time

【Effect】

Initiates a determination on the target related to the "attribute value".

If the target's total Attribute Value is less than 400, the decision fails, and the target is forced to inflict "Ulceration Sores".

【Description】

The mystical side of the extraordinary energy can often ignore the life form and structure of the target.

Even if the Machines are alchemical creations made of metal, they are affected by the "Ulcering Sores".

…

Leno targets the "Festering Sores" entry and unleashes a new deconstruction.

This is a negative effect that causes the target to festering quickly.

If the target of this negative effect is not treated in time, it will fester, becoming a puddle of slime that will be absorbed by the "Hustle Tunnel" within 10 seconds.

The more troublesome part is that the "festering sores" are a negative effect of the mystical side, and metal objects such as machines are not immune to its effects.

Leno must create a machine with a total "attribute value" of more than 400 points in order to pass the "Festering Howl" judgment and then remotely scout the "Hustle Tunnel".

Or...

Another way of thinking?

Li Nuo stared at the gray veins of the "Hustle and Bustle Tunnel", and a glimmer of light flashed in his eyes.

He took out the Thunderbolt Orb, held it in his left hand, and drew the thunderbolt energy from it.

After a short period of plastic energy, the lightning energy mass is suspended in the air in the form of a magic array, turning into a low-powered "Tracking Thunderbolt Circle".

A bolt of lightning energy shot out of the circle and pointed at a vein in the "Hustle Tunnel".

"Crackle~"

"Puff~"

Thunder flashed.

The gray veins were struck by the lightning arrows, and they wriggled and were unharmed, except for a small piece of mucus on the surface that was lifted up by the surging thunder snake.

Li Nuo was unable to do any damage to the gray blood vessels.

He also failed to trigger passive deconstruction.

But!

The sight of the thunderbolt exploding on the gray veins proved one of Li Nuo's guesses:

The polluted area called the "Hustle and Bustle Tunnel" can be attacked!

It is an entity with physical properties.

Li Nuo did not hesitate and took control of the capacitor package from Noreen.

Three capacitor packs with a total of 6 million lightning energy flew near the gray blood vessels and activated the lightning injection program!

"Crackle! Crackle! Crackle! ”

Thunder rages, lightning rushes away.

Thanks to the directional injection function of the capacitor capacitor encapsulator, all 6 million points of lightning energy are precisely applied to the same vascular skin.

"Poof!"

The gray veins were blasted out by the lightning, and a fierce wind was used in the crack, carrying a terrible shout.

The rift existed for about 10 seconds and quickly repaired itself, leaving no traces.

【System Information:】

[You have done extremely little damage to the "Hustle Tunnel". 】

[Passive deconstruction activation! ] 】

[Your progress in harmless deconstruction of the target has been increased by 0.001%]

【You get the following solution:】

[You unlocked one of the traits of "Noisy Tunnel":]

【Feature Name】Tough-level energy protection

【Characteristics and Effects】

Only by inflicting more than 5 million points of energy damage on the "Hustle Tunnel" at one time can it cause substantial damage.

Energy damage below 5,000,000 points will be immune to the "Hustle and Bustle Tunnel".

…

"Oh, it can be like this~"

Li Nuo raised the corners of his mouth and rubbed his hands excitedly.

5,000,000 points of lightning energy can summon 0.001% harmless deconstruction progress.

Then, only 500 billion lightning energy needs to be invested, and the "hustle and bustle tunnel" can be 100% deconstructed!

Five thousand, billion points...

When Li Nuo settled the account, he couldn't help but be secretly speechless.

The demand for lightning energy is not more than 100 million points.

"Shall I build a few Type II reactors to passively deconstruct the "Noise Tunnel"..."

Just as Li Nuo was thinking, some of the "tracking marks" came with a spiritual warning.

Li Nuo quickly called up the "Tracking Markers", threw out the "Psychic Vision", simply glanced at it, threw out the deconstruction, and then erased the existence of the "Psychic Horizon" and the "Tracking Marker".

The people of the Pure Light Court are here!

These guys came before the Wizards Advance Society.

Li Nuo beckoned Noreen to pack up the temporary base and prepare to evacuate, while clicking on the solution that had just arrived.

The team of the Pure Light Court made up of 15 Pure Light Wizards.

The leader is a Nine-Ring Pure Light Battle Wizard named Limar Spade.

He had two lieutenants, both of whom were Eight-Ring Pure Light Battle Wizards.

The rest of the team members are the strength of the fifth to seventh rings, not combat wizards, and are only responsible for conducting magic experiments, not for combat affairs.

The safety of the entire team is the responsibility of the team leader and two vice-captains.

Each of them has around a hundred combat magic golems.

- An animated armor dressed in magical metal heavy armor and a pristine white battle robe, wielding a one-handed scepter that emits "Pure Light Pulses" and a magic shield that spreads magical barriers.

The name of the battle magic golem is "Pure Light Ranger", and the combat level ranges from 65 to 75.

Such a Pure Light team, which has good combat effectiveness and also has the ability to conduct magical experiments, is just the advance team of the Pure Light Court.

In the "Letter of Instruction" given to Limar Spade by Grand Arbitrator Paredes, it is mentioned that after Limar Spade's team has built a temporary Pure Light Camp, there will be a Clear Light team composed of 100 Pure Light Wizards stationed in the camp.

Li Nuo obtained these contents from the results of the solution.

What he paid the most attention to was the magical artifact carried by the Pure Light team.

Thunderclouds!

The Pure Light team will bring the thunderclouds made by his Li Nuo to the scene.

The Pure Light Court wants to use thunderclouds to bombard the polluted area.

This is the research order given by the Grand Arbitrator Paredes.

Li Nuo touched his head.

If someone else uses the thunderclouds he made to bombard the polluted field, can he trigger passive deconstruction?

I probably can't...

So how can the thunder and lightning energy of the Pure Light Court be borrowed from their hands to trigger passive deconstruction?

Li Nuo's thoughts were surging, and he always felt that he could take a shortcut, and he didn't need to really prepare up to 500 billion thunder and lightning energy.

It just so happened that Noreen packed up the temporary base and erased the traces of the two of her and the machine spirit.

Li Nuo put away the mechanical spirit and prepared to go and collect the treasure left by Jikamodo and the others in the wild.

He left a lot of "tracking marks" in the vicinity, so he didn't have to worry about not being able to keep an eye on the pollution area after leaving.

But at the moment when Li Nuo was about to leave, he was obviously stunned for a moment, and suddenly realized that he had overlooked a crucial place.

"Wait, wait, something is wrong."

Leno slapped his forehead and recalled the "Letter of Instruction" that Paredes had given to Limar Spade in his mind.

The field of pollution has only been around for more than half an hour.

Before Limar Spade arrived, there shouldn't have been any Wizard of Light in the vicinity, right?

So in this case, how can Paredes be sure that he can bombard the polluted area with thunderclouds?

Will he be unpredictable?

Shouldn't he have asked Limar Spaid to give it a try, and then send the Pure Light team here with the thunderclouds after confirming that the lightning can cause damage to the polluted area?

But now, Paredes directly ordered the construction of a camp and mobilized thunderclouds to conduct magic experiments...

Doesn't that mean that this guy was certain from the beginning that thunderclouds could cause harm to the polluted field?

I don't know if it's an illusion, but Li Nuo always feels that Paredes knows a lot about the "Noisy Tunnel".

The last time I felt this way was on Berkeley's magic ship.

At that time, Paredes talked eloquently about the sign of "Dragon Claw Pinching the Planet", and introduced the origin of the metal progenitor dragon to the people at the scene.

At that time, Li Nuo felt that the other party seemed to be very familiar with the metal progenitor dragon.

He wanted to deconstruct Paredes.

But at that time, energy was in short supply, and there was really no spare energy to deconstruct the other party.

After missing that opportunity, Leno never found an opportunity to deconstruct Paredes.

"The water in the Pure Light Court is deeper than I imagined. That Paredes had a collaboration with the metal progenitor, and he also knew the field of pollution very well. I really want to know what the result of his solution is. ”

Li Nuo shook his head slightly:

"Forget it, don't think about this yet. Let's go and take away the treasure of the three people of Jikamodo. When all the wizards who have come to study the pollution field are here, I will deconstruct the personnel on the site and obtain information. ”

Li Nuo casts a "death flight" and shuttles through the dark areas. (End of chapter)
