164 Escape
Before leaving the abyss, there are naturally some preparations to be made.
The first is to settle Belen's subordinates, now that the master is running away, there is no extra energy to take care of these loyal servants, after all, Penny does not have the courage to lead a group of demonic servants to swagger through the main material realm, even in Serge, such a will be targeted by many high-level red robes.
So it had no choice but to persuade its servants to ask for more blessings in a 'tactful' tone: "Listen to me, you fools, when I am away, honestly save your own life, remember, you are all my property, according to the contract, you know that your souls will fly to me after death, do not make me angry." β
Penny smacked the words, felt the aura of the king in them, and couldn't help but glance at the white shadow that emerged from above his head a few more times.
There's really a bit of a demon boss.
"Yes, my greatest master. Led by the succubus Di Sandaro, a group of demons knelt down the mountain and shouted, and then in the blink of an eye, they immediately got up and ran away.
Even the slowest moving sturdy magic stick is running fast.
Leaving Penny dumbfounded.
"What are you doing in a daze?" its voice was a little dissatisfied: "Demons are like this, don't use the human way of thinking to trick them." β
"Oh, it just feels a little fresh. Penny froze, shaking his head.
"Hurry up and pack up the things on the ground. β
Hearing its urging, the mage rummaged through Durinvanden's shattered corpse, and found only a few spell materials and magic scrolls in the magic bag, except for a spell book and the research notes promised to Penny in advance.
The most valuable things are just a few rings and wands with low-level spells.
He shook his head a little speechlessly, knowing very well that a spellcaster of this level would never carry everything precious with him, and he flipped through two pages of research notes, and was even more speechless.
Although the content is detailed, it is clear...... It's just an abyssal ecological record, and it's an encyclopedia, and while it's not useless, it's far from a real magical research note.
But it's better than nothing.
Maybe there are some treasures in that lab.
Thinking so, Penny gathered up all the loot, suddenly looked at the mage tower again, looked up and asked, "Do you have anything else to take with you?"
He remembered that there were many treasures left behind by the previous master in that mage tower.
"Treasure?" it seemed to frown, "I ate it all." β
The mage stared at the white shadow for a moment, and finally could only nod speechlessly.
Of course, it is impossible for an embryo to spit out what it has eaten.
"If I evolve successfully, they will become the material that makes up my body. "Actually, I don't remember what I've eaten." β
"Alright, let's go. Penny shook his head helplessly.
Thankfully, he hadn't expected anything in the first place.
"Wait. β
Penny had just pulled out the teleportation gem when he heard this and stopped again.
"One more thing. It said, "Maybe it will work for you." β
"Maybe it will work for me?" Penny frowned again.
Curiosity was gently picked, and he put away the teleportation stone.
Following Belen's guidance, he entered the ruined Mage Tower, and in a small remote room on the lower level, he saw the 'thing' that Belen had in his mouth.
"Is this it?" the mage frowned, holding up something as black as charcoal.
From the outside, this thing and the treasure are inseparable.
And in his perception, he didn't notice anything special about this thing.
"Absolutely. Belen affirmed, "Remember the accident you had here?"
"Of course I do. The mage nodded.
"In fact, at that time, I couldn't stop its power at all. It sighed, "I was going to travel through space as soon as you escaped, but this thing appeared. β
"Oh?" the mage raised an eyebrow, interested.
This section of charcoal can have such a big effect?
"He sucked up all the power that 'it' unleashed. "I tried to devour it, but instead it became what it is," Belen said. β
"In other words, this is what actually made you evolve?" Penny looked at the black thing again in disbelief.
The same can be said. Its tone was also a little confused: "I felt that 'it' seemed to resonate with some part of my body, so there was such a change, and that was exactly why I was puzzled." β
Penny frowned, trying to create a small stream of chaotic energy to send into the charcoal, and soon, he noticed the difference in this thing: the chaotic energy was first sucked away by it, and then the hand holding the charcoal felt a strong vibration, unable to hold it anymore, and the treasure fell to the ground, lightly without making a sound.
"How?"
"It's a bit weird. The mage nodded, "Looks like I need to check the Mind Flayer's notes." β
"You'd better use a snack. Belen said in a serious tone: "I can feel it, this is an amazing thing. β
Penny didn't speak, he stared at the object, and after a short moment of silent induction, he finally noticed that it was different.
Although he would not find anything abnormal just by observing this thing, he had just discovered that the power change in the surrounding space was a little strange.
It seemed normalβfor the forces of nature were constantly changing, but Penny sensed something out of itβthe flow of power in the vast area around the thing was steady and rigid, as if something had locked it in.
It made him horrified.
This is the abyssal plane dominated by the will of chaos, and this thing actually affects the operation law of the abyssal power.
"If I had found it earlier, I might have eaten it, but until that incident, it had been the same as a normal black stone, and it seemed to have changed because of the accident. Belen's tone was a little regretful: "You seem to have seen that my embryo has not been destroyed until now, and a large part of it is due to him." β
The mage pondered for a while, then nodded, the principle of which is not difficult to guess, the existence of this thing distorted the large space around this mage tower, making it impossible for the Abyss Will to detect the truth here.
Like a huge shelter.
If Belen had been hiding in it, it would have been difficult for the power of the abyss to even be accurately located, let alone the destructive power that descended directly, would be swallowed by this thing.
"Then let's go. The mage casually threw the object into the magic bag.
"Wait!" and then he heard Belen's hurried voice.
One moment, he knew that he had done something stupid, and the next, he felt that a huge and chaotic force began to coalesce above his head.
"He found out!"
Before Belen could urge him, the mage pulled out the object again.
A powerful force fell from the sky, blasting through a layer of ceiling, the mage rolled to the corner of the wall in embarrassment, the black charcoal fell to the ground, and the next moment, those forces that fell from the sky were absorbed by it with a trajectory visible to the naked eye.
It's amazing.
Penny looked up at the sky in amazement through the pierced ceiling, and once again saw the giant eye of the Abyssal Will manifestation.
Its gaze could be seen wandering left and right over the area, but the light was scattered.
In the sky, the roar of the thunder was confused and angry.
The mage breathed a sigh of relief.
"Look, that's it. Belen said lightly.
This is how it escaped the punishment of the abyss.
Penny frowned, leaned over to pick it up, and squeezed it tightly in his hand.
He didn't hear Belen shouting again, but he soon knew that he had done another stupid thing.
A torrent of power followed the arm into his **, and Penny's eyes almost popped out of their sockets for a moment.
Because he had a feeling all over his body that he was being broken by this force.
It was as if a balloon had been blown up by an excessive current, and his muscles rattled softly, as if he could be burst by this force at any moment.
It was a fatal mistake.
Penny's brain was spinning rapidly, but fortunately his wisdom was enough for him to find a solution to save his life, and he reached into the magic bag with his other hand and pressed it against the embryonic egg, and in an instant, the power that blew him up seemed to have found a breakthrough, flowing out with a suction force from the embryo.
It took a few minutes for the force to pour out, and he exhaled, and as soon as his legs went limp, he collapsed to the ground.
"It's good that you react quickly. It complimented, "Shall I praise you?"
"Well, I can't help but be cautious. The mage rolled his eyes, noticing that the embryo in the magic bag had grown a little more, and he frowned, "It seems that this will be good for you, can we lure it into giving you more power?"
"It's not a problem to have a little more energy and less material, but if there is too much energy in the embryo, it gets in the way because it takes more time to conceive. Belen shook his head: "What's more important is the law of evolution of abyssal creatures, so if I want to get out of the shell, I must get an abyss lord, even if he is the lowest level, or has been abandoned by the abyss will, but as long as it has been conceived under the influence of that will, there will be those things in the soul core." β
"However, I can't guarantee that I will be able to get it, especially in the main material realm. Penny felt that there was little hope, but after a few more glances at the spirit above his head, he suddenly felt a little pitiful for it: "Well, I will promise you to look for it as much as possible." β
It stopped talking, and Penny looked up, suddenly to see that Belen's attention was on the sky.
"What's wrong?" Penny asked.
"He was furious. Belen's voice became heavy, and Penny looked up to see the eye in the sky as hot as lava, "It seems it feels fooled." β
"It's a strange existence. Penny felt the magic of the abyss deeply.
In the abyssal plane, there is such an active and strong will with strong feelings.
"Don't be stunned, he has to do something new. Belen urged, "Let's go." β
Penny nodded, pulled out the Dimensional Teleportation Gem and activated.
A ray of light enveloped his body, and before he had completely left the plane, he saw an astonishing scene in the few seconds of teleportation delay.
A strong flash of light burst out from that red eye, and it dispersed in the air, blooming into the surrounding sky, as if splitting the space into pieces, and from between the cracks cut by the light, hundreds of winged monsters flew out, whistling like a dark cloud, swooping down from the sky.
At the same time, the pale earth began to crack, a large amount of lava erupted, in addition to dense monsters, meteorites and lightning fell from the sky, such a terrifying power, it seems to be to completely raze this small piece of land.
Above the roar of the hordes of monsters, the roar of the abyss proclaimed its wrath through thunder, as if the entire plane had been shattered by it.
A thief who had stolen its power fled right under his nose.
How much of its power did this thief steal that made him so angry?
