Chapter 687: In the Air
Rewind time to the moment Lucia fell from the sky. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
Einstein's dive was very anxious, but it was a bit inexplicable to Lucia herself, and to be honest, even Lucia herself didn't know whether she would hurt herself or the earth if she fell to the ground like this, and with her shallow knowledge of herself, she always felt that the latter was much more likely.
Of course, Lucia had no intention of trying such a thing, because it would be painful, so she reached out her hands and grabbed the horns of Einstein's head as Einstein leaned over, climbed onto Einstein's head, and beckoned to Ejith and Ebonne who were looking this way.
Feeling her master's touch again, Einstein's hanging heart finally fell back into place, and she looked up to see that Geoffrey and his army were closing in this direction.
Jeffrey, who had been relieved of "Wu Thor", returned to his human form, and his original youthful face became much older, as if the time that had stopped had returned to him again.
"Don't waste your efforts. β
Not a mockery, not a provocation, Jeffrey just talks about the facts as scripted.
"In order to be able to keep you in this magic, the old man has put a lot of thought into the countermeasures, as long as someone tries to break through, then another defense mechanism attached to the magic will gather all its strength to fight back, although I dare not say that it is guaranteed to be foolproof, but it is impossible to break through in a short time. β
It's a simple way, but sometimes it can work very well, like now.
Jeffrey's words did not shake Einstein, because in Einstein's opinion, there were too many holes in this passage, and no, even if you were not Einstein, you could easily see these holes.
"You can't do it alone if you have enough power to fight back, which means you're using the mana you've collected in the Templar to maintain another counter-attack. β
It's quite simple, but Einstein wasn't trying to say that kind of nonsense.
"So, as a Templar Provider, no one will be treated as an attacker by the defense mechanics, in other words...... Your magic may seem indestructible, but it's just a faΓ§ade. β
With that, Einstein's eyes looked down to see that beneath her was the royal capital of Herberies, the largest and most prosperous city in Herbelis, home to thousands of humans, all of whom were the magic providers of the Templar Lands, in other words, all of whom were able to easily crack the magic that Jeffrey had put a considerable amount of effort into constructing.
"It's ironic, whether it's magic or planning, thousands of loopholes are unique. β
With that said, Einstein was also calculating the chances of the Temple Land being broken by humans. After all, it is Geoffrey's magic, and I'm afraid no one knows the shortcomings of this magic better than Geoffrey, so as long as Geoffrey's brain is not stupid enough to forget to gasp and suffocate to death, he will not leave the loophole open and not complete it.
Sure enough, Jeffrey went on to say.
"As you said, this magic is still imperfect, so just in case of accidents, I asked the dragons to deal with your strange friends, and the other humans will not be able to get to the position of the barrier wall, even if there are a few lucky ones who are not drained of their magic and die suddenly, their luck will come to an end, because what awaits them there is a pre-arranged butcher's knife. β
Jeffrey is very confident, but this self-confidence is not blind, for human beings, physical ability is always a mountain that cannot be crossed, if the pyramid is arranged with physical ability, human beings should probably be at the bottom of the pyramid, and the dragon is undoubtedly the top of the pyramid, so the gap between the two extremes is desperate.
Looking at Einstein for a long time, Jeffrey asked.
"So, how are you going to solve this problem?"
Einstein didn't answer, so Jeffrey continued, but with little to do with it.
"Magic is a magical thing, and the more you dig into it, the more you realize how powerful it really is, just like now, even the magic of a group of ordinary humans, if used properly, can be a threat that you monsters can't ignore. β
Not to Einstein, but to Lucia, Jeffrey asked word by word.
"If you may, could you please tell me what magic is, or more precisely, what is a soul?"
From the start, Jeffrey Liberm didn't feel like a magician in the traditional sense, and while he was undoubtedly the most senior of the living human magicians, he wasn't the scholarly magician one remembers, except now.
"Magic comes from the soul, and all living things have souls in them, which may seem reasonable, but in reality it is incomprehensible. Come to think of it, it's just an ordinary animal, but there is a power in the soul that can break the laws of nature, which doesn't make sense logically. β
Jeffrey raised his hand, and his hands, which had been made of flesh and blood, slowly turned into a mass of high-density thunder and lightning.
"Some people say that magic is not a miracle but a skill, but in my opinion, the fact that this skill can be used by mortals is a miracle in itself. β
Lucia tilted her head, it didn't matter to her whether the magic was a miracle or a trick, and she thought it would be better to remind Geoffrey.
"Although I don't really want to interrupt you, after all, everyone knows that there will be a plot before the final boss fight, but it's better for you to pay attention to the nod ....... β
...... Because there are many people who like to skip the plot. Because there were too many words as foreshadowing, Lucia couldn't finish the whole sentence, and the black flash cut through the day, and fell on Geoffrey's head like a heavenly punishment, shattering Geoffrey and several of the Heavenly Crusaders around him.
β...... Well, next time I'll get straight to the point as soon as possible. β
As for whether there will be a next time, Lucia is not worried at all, the black flash has just ended, and the shattered Jeffrey is completely restored to his original state again.
Seeing this scene, especially with the Crusaders who disappeared next to her as a comparison, Lucia suddenly felt that instead of using a few people to spell out a crusade, it was better for all of them to make themselves in a state of temporary inability to die like Jeffrey, although they would die after the skill effect ended, but it was better than being killed directly, right?
