Chapter 18 The Power of Rules

The road ahead is deep and long, and it seems that there is no end to it. Richard consciously communicated with the brood, and after a few moments, the brood's response finally came. It simply says about the situation in which the star chrysalis gets lost in the depths of the clouds. The current star chrysalis is just a simple means of transportation, its own intelligence level is very low, it does not have much analytical ability, and it is unable to get out of the predicament on its own.

"Master, I have sent three distractors and are flying at full speed, and it is expected to arrive near the Black Valley in ten hours. With their provided positioning, it should allow the star chrysalis to emerge from the fog. In addition, I sent 200 Lightning Feathered Serpents with the Split Brain. ”

"It's good, I'm sure I can hold out for ten hours. Richard made up his mind and moved on. But before he could take a single step, the scenery around him suddenly changed, and the connection with the brood was interrupted.

In front of Richard, a barren world appeared, with the darkness of eternal night in the sky and the barren earth beneath his feet. Ahead is a hill with an old castle built on top of it, and around the castle is a large cemetery that is terrifying. Richard did not move forward, but looked back, and behind him was an empty wilderness, no longer the scene from which he came, and all those who followed him had disappeared.

"It's ...... Richard was surprised, then sighed in annoyance, and said to himself: "There are so many half-plane shadows, of course there will be half-plane storage." I should have thought that this guy would use the half-plane as a trap!"

Richard moved his fingers slightly, plucked the Destiny Twins, and walked towards the abandoned castle in the distance. Being alone in the half-plane is naturally extremely dangerous, and Richard is silent on the surface, but in fact he has activated his real name. In the depths of the soul, the well of stars quietly emerged, and the star mist at the mouth of the well surged for a moment, and suddenly there was a shock, and a wisp of phantorius blue star power erupted, which was slowly added to Richard's magic power. Richard immediately reassured, which showed that the rules on which the Well of the Stars was based were far above this half-plane, and its ability to communicate with the plane and transform energy had never been blocked and suppressed by the half-plane.

As if sensing Richard's threat, the night in the entire half-plane became thicker, the wind began to be stronger, and the cry became very clear, making people not only creepy, but also flustered. Richard was unmoved, and strode towards the castle. Whatever lurks in this half-plane, the center should be in that castle.

When Richard stepped on the road up the mountain, it was equivalent to stepping into the cemetery. In the darkness of the night, a miserable white palm suddenly poked out of the ground next to it, and then a rotting corpse struggled out of the dirt and staggered towards Richard. With the first, there will naturally be a second, a third. In the blink of an eye, almost every grave in the cemetery will have one or even several hands poking out, and zombies will crawl out of it one after another, and as far as the eye can see, there are no less than thousands of these zombies!

It's a dense sea of zombies, and there are several particularly tall skeleton generals in it. These undead creatures as high as level sixteen would have a headache when they were encountered by ordinary Faro powerhouses. Although the level of zombies is not high, there are too many of them, and anyone who suddenly enters a completely unfamiliar plane will inevitably panic, let alone know whether the place they are in is real or hallucinatory.

In this half-plane, just by relying on the massive number of undead creatures in the cemetery, an ordinary Zhenguo powerhouse of Faro could be piled up alive. Unfortunately, it trapped Richard, the archmage from the Norland plane who regarded dimensional warfare as part of his life. Richard knew at first glance that this was a real world, and that it was in the form of a half-plane, so it could never be too big, and no matter how big it was, even a legendary mage would be unable to sustain its consumption. The other half-plane should be looking at the void instead of the deep night in front of you, indicating that the person who set up the trap set up an enchantment that could wrap the entire half-plane in order to make the environment more realistic.

Seeing the zombies rushing towards him, Richard quickened his pace and caught up with a zombie. The zombie roared and raised its arms high, but before it could smash down, Richard had already accelerated, swept past its side with an understatement, and continued to run towards the castle.

The zombie's fists slammed into the ground, and apart from the air splashing a cloud of gravel and dirt, it didn't catch a single corner of Richard's clothes.

Richard went all the way up, faster and faster, and then activated the magic arm. He ran like the wind, and neither the hulking zombie nor the tall skeleton general could catch up with him, let alone hit him. Richard rushed at the zombies as they raised their fists, and by the time they slammed their fists down, Richard was already far away.

Richard didn't believe that the cemetery could be so simple, and if it did, then an agile thief and assassin would see it as a flat place to come and go freely.

Sure enough, several black shadows suddenly appeared under the night, attacking Richard like lightning! Richard sneered slightly, holding the Destiny Twins in his hand, and with a flick of his left hand, dozens of small lightning bolts popped out from his fingertips, and after flying more than ten meters into the air, they suddenly turned into finger-thick lightning bolts, hitting those black shadows!

This time, Richard's lightning was no longer red, but a milky white.

Of course, the black shadows that came at them could not be faster than real lightning, and they were obviously extremely vulnerable in front of these milky white lightning, and as soon as they were struck by lightning, they let out a squeaky cry and fell from the sky. They were all half-meter-sized spider monsters, their backs were full of corpse spots, and their eight legs were two meters long, no wonder they were so fast. The ghoul spiders were originally quite ferocious half-undead creatures, but after being struck by Richard's tiny lightning bolts, their whole bodies burned with gray flames, and they turned to ashes in the blink of an eye.

Richard was surprised by the power of lightning, and after analyzing some of the rules of the Living Tree, he was now able to add life force to some of the well-studied magic. There are undead everywhere here, and Richard only added a little life force to the lightning in the spirit of trying, but he didn't expect to kill the ghoul spider with a single blow!

After killing the ghoul spider, Richard headed straight for the castle. Suddenly a large swarm of vampire bats flew over the castle and attacked Richard overwhelmingly!

However, dealing with the Great Magus, especially the Great Magus with the Magic Reincarnation, such a large number of fragile beings is completely a food delivery.

Richard stood differently, and with a wave of the Fate Twins, a large thick cloud had been laid in the air. The range of the acid mist technique in his hands became extremely large, but the power was reduced to a minimum, it was just a large white mist. Vampire bats in the air rained down into the clouds, but Richard couldn't find his whereabouts for a while. The zombies, skeletons, and skeleton generals who were chasing from the rear, and the front ones also rushed into the clouds. Under the cover of the clouds, these undead creatures did not see the dozens of large and small fireballs that Richard shot out quickly. These fireballs floated silently, forming an esoteric formation. Richard then blessed himself with a magic shield up to the seventh order.

The fireball exploded almost at the same moment, and the rushing waves of fire collided with each other, and there was no way out for a while, and suddenly turned into a wild whirlwind, but the fireball that exploded above instead pressed the whirlwind inward!

Looking from the outside, you can see that the magic cloud is shrinking violently!

Immediately, a large area of red light appeared in the white cloud, and a fire ball rushed out of the fog, instantly turning into a huge fireball with a diameter of 100 meters, and then the flame rose upward, turned into a mushroom cloud, and slowly rose into the air.

A huge roar rumbled in all directions.

The hundred-meter fire turned into smoke in an instant and rose into the night sky. Vampire bats, zombies, and skeletons all disappeared within the reach of the fire, except for the tall skeleton general, who was still on the ground, barely making out some outlines. And at the core of the firestorm, the magic shield on Richard's body flashed a few times, and finally broke, and he himself was naturally unharmed.

Richard looked at the lonely bats flying around in the night sky, and was very satisfied with the effect of the magic just now. He only used the magic power equivalent of an eighth-level magic, but he blasted out a power that surpassed the ninth-level, and the center point where he was located happened to be the lightest-stressed, and only a seventh-level shield was enough.

It is easy to use fireballs to form a magic array, and then focus or spread the power, but in fact it is extremely difficult to do, and it is necessary to calculate the number of heavens in an instant, so as to accurately find the impact point of the power of the fire wave at the moment. If it weren't for Richard's numerical vision and great talent for intelligence, placing dozens of fireballs around him would be tantamount to suicide. And even if Richard could calculate the magic array, without the subtle control power of the magic reincarnation, any of those fireballs with a slight inaccuracy in power, or a deviation in the time of the explosion, would still blast Richard into ashes.

The nearly 1,000 vampire bats hoarded throughout the castle were completely reimbursed by Richard's magic. Richard ran towards the gate of the castle, then suddenly turned around, and began to run against the city wall, running hundreds of meters and standing with his back against the city wall, looking at the army of undead creatures slowly pressing down, flames began to appear on his fingertips, and then more than a dozen flames shot in all directions.

With a roar, flames erupted one after another, pulling out several criss-crossing walls of fire and burning continuously on the ground. The wall of fire is only about one meter long, and it doesn't look very turbulent. The undead were never afraid, so they kept going.

The undead had never feared, so they continued on, and one of the skeleton generals at the front stepped straight through the wall of fire. However, as soon as the flames burned to its leg bones, it suddenly made a loud crackling sound, and the Skeleton General immediately let out a silent cry of pain, and immediately staggered.
