Chapter 1219: Phase Shuttle
The magic web that Saljan and Valera are familiar with has long since been "trained" by the weaver Malygos, and has become much more docile, and hardly causes any backlash to those who borrow the power of the magic web...... Unless you die yourself.
In the present ancient age, which was still very savage, Malygos did not even have a shadow, and it was naturally impossible for the weaver to talk about it.
Wild and uncontrolled arcane energy surged through Azeroth's primordial web, and like Elunis, they instinctively fought back against those who tried to control them.
Sarjan didn't want to completely control the magic net, he just wanted to borrow some of the magic net energy to complete Mimiron's commission, build a magic barrier to cover the magic of the eternal well flowing into the Splendid Valley.
However, for the primitive arcane entities that were free-roaming through the entire territory of Azeroth through the magic web, Sarren's actions were undoubtedly a provocation to them.
Accustomed to uninhibited arcane entities, they decided to teach this daring offender a lesson he will never forget.
Valilla glanced roughly from the corner of her eye, and there were a total of 4 arcane entities that appeared in the Splendid Valley in response to the call, and one of them was temporarily restrained by a freezing trap, making it difficult to break free in a short period of time.
'1 to 3? It's a little tricky, but ...... It's not out of the question. ’
Valilla has been with Salaen on her journeys, and in just ten years, she has experienced more events than many High Elves have ever had.
Because of this, Valeera is extremely experienced in combat, and driven by her already good talent, her progress is only a little slower than that of Sarjan, and she has already touched the ceiling of mortals.
The few arcane entities in front of him, if you look at them from the pure energy level, are all similar to Valeera.
However, if you add in the difference in actual combat experience between them, Valeera is sure that she can easily crush them.
'The problem is ......'
Valeera's eyes narrowed slightly, and her expression solemnly observed the enemies who were constantly transitioning between physical and virtual states.
'Is this the Aspect Legend ability that Salian mentioned earlier?' ’
Phase shuttle is similar to the stealth effect that thieves are used to, but the principle is completely different.
The Thief's stealth uses the power of shadow, a branch of the Shadow Power, to obscure his form.
Phase shuttle, on the other hand, requires the use of one's own spatial cognition to move back and forth between the material world and phase space to achieve the effect of stealth in an alternative way.
The invisibility mastered by the Arcanists is one of the applications of phase technology, which evades danger by moving oneself into a phase space that is undetectable to others.
Valera had previously studied phase shuttle techniques with Gianna and Stella Goussa, and she thought that if she learned this ability, she would be able to strengthen her penetration skills.
According to Stella Gossa and Gianna, phase travel does not require much of the user's arcane talents.
But that doesn't mean it's easy to master.
In order to learn and use phase shuttle, the user must possess a certain level of spatial cognition, which is also a talent, and it is an extremely rare spatial talent.
If the talent is not enough to force learning, the greatest possibility is that you will get lost in other planes and cannot return to reality when trying to use it.
Valeera's arcane talent is indeed a bit crotch-pulling, but she's surprisingly gifted in spatial awareness.
Gianna said something with tears and laughter when she learned about this.
"If you can possess both arcane talents above the standard line, as long as you can develop them correctly, sooner or later you will be able to surpass the arcanist predecessors of Dalaran and Quel'Salas and become an archmage who specializes in space spells, or even further...... It's a pity. ”
Gianna was sorry for Valeera's talent for spatial cognition, but Valeera herself didn't care about it.
Salian has a good saying, nine times out of ten things in life are unsatisfactory, blindly lamenting those things that cannot be changed will not help, you should learn to be content and happy.
As the saying goes, I am born to be useful.
Valilla doesn't think that she can't make the most of her spatial awareness talent without arcane talent, she thinks it's just that she hasn't been able to find a better space to play for the time being.
Before following Sarren through the Time Gate to this era, Valilla had an inexplicable premonition that she would always feel that this time travel would be rewarding for her.
And now, this foreknowledge has come true.
These arcane entities do feel fluctuations in arcane energy as they phase travel, but unlike the methods developed by Gianna and Little Star, the fluctuations are not as intense as when the mages perform flashes and teleportations.
In other words, if Valilla can learn the phase travel techniques used by these arcane entities, she will be able to further strengthen her strength, making it harder for enemies to detect during combat and infiltration.
Valeera's thoughts were spinning around, but she wasn't hesitant to let her personal problems go.
Sideways to dodge an arcane entity that had shifted behind her through phase shuttle, Valiera spun her head and swept backwards with her long, slender legs.
Before Valeera's counterattack hits, the enemy, who had remained in a physical state, suddenly blurred and hid in phase space to avoid the attack.
"Heh~"
With a kick in the air, Valeera wasn't much surprised.
Now that she had confirmed the abilities of these arcane entities, she had expected this for a long time.
Glancing at Sarjan, who was still engrossed in building a magic array, Valeera's brow furrowed slightly.
With that thing around, these arcane entities themselves are not difficult to deal with, but in order not to interfere with what Sarren is doing, it is better to lure them out of a certain range for a one-time solution. ’
Retracting the short knife in her left hand, Valera took several knives from the leather pouch around her waist and clamped them between her fingers.
Using her soul to dodge the stealth attack of an arcane entity once again, Valeera's flexible body flickered and moved like a dance.
Aided by throwing knives, Valera forced the three most active arcane entities out of a distance of five meters from Sarren's side through a small area of spatial suppression.
The arcane entity that had been frozen in the ice trap was about to break free, and it seemed that the situation was not good for Valeera, but they were unknowingly gathered together.
'It's time. ’
Sprinkled with glitter powder to hide her body and force her body into a stealth state, Valera quickly took out a crystal clear orb from the package and held it in her hand.
After calculating the distance between her and Sarjan, Valera did not hesitate to inject energy into the orb to activate it.
"Buzz!"
As a deep purple glow appeared on the surface of the orb, the four arcane entities with fangs and claws suddenly froze in place.
In the next second, the atomized bodies of the four arcane entities disintegrated almost simultaneously, turning into pure arcane energy and returning to the magic net.
"Whew~"
Valeera, who had carefully controlled the orb's area of effect, finally breathed a sigh of relief.
"Forbidden Orb."
With some emotion, he threw the purple orb in his hand: "This thing is really in my hands to play the greatest role." ”
The Forbidden Orb is a special artifact that Salian found from Karazan's treasury, and its function is very simple, prohibiting the use of any spell within a certain range.
Stellagosa and Gianna had studied the orb in depth, and according to them, the forbidden orb disrupts all the flow of energy within a certain radius, and its principle is similar to the common spell countermeasures used by arcanists, but with a wider range of effects.
The basis of the arcane entity is energy, and after the energy in their body is disturbed by the forbidden orb, it is natural that they cannot maintain the entity, and this seemingly inconspicuous artifact happens to be the natural enemy of pure energy creatures.
As a multi-professional, Sarjan also often needs to use all kinds of instantaneous small spells, and the forbidden orb cannot be put into full use when placed in his hand.
After discussing with the family, it was unanimously decided that Valeera, a pure physical professional, would take care of the forbidden orb.
At the same time that the Forbidden Orb took effect, the power of the shadow covering Valeera was also disturbed, causing her to retreat from her stealth state.
But the battle is over, and this little problem is harmless.
"Phase Shuttle ......"
Retrieving the Orb of the Forbidden Demon and walking over to the dissipating position of the four arcane entities, Valera crouched down to pick up the arcane core they left behind, a thoughtful expression on her face.
"Could it be that my breakthrough is here?"
