Arcane Lord

Epps closed his eyes and considered the various connections between this series of events in his mind, figuring out the next direction in his mind.

First of all, the Stardew Scepter, or the crystal of the plane, can no longer be handed over. The establishment of the guiding beacon has been delayed for so long. Now that it has been established with great difficulty, it cannot be given up easily.

As long as grandpa comes back, everything can be settled.

He forced himself not to think about the possibility that his grandfather might have died in another dimension. He believed that since his grandfather left a guidance message, he could definitely predict the current situation. Perhaps this was his grandfather's test for him.

When he opened his eyes again, Epps had already made a decision, "Taling, suspend all non-essential functions and activate the highest level emergency response plan."

In a deeper connection with the tower spirit, Epps judged all the functions of the mage tower one by one and chose the most suitable response procedure for the current situation.

At the same time, wherever there are people in the mage tower, the voice of the tower spirit can be heard——

"Alert, the Tower of Time is about to enter a wartime state. To avoid any accidents, all members should immediately stop what they are doing and return to their respective residences."

"Arcane Garden is closed——

“The public floor is closed——

"The library is closed——"

…

When he heard the alarm, Xia Duo, who was conducting [Levitation Technique] experiments in the magic laboratory, was immediately shocked. He knew that the lord was enigmatically engaged in "archaeology"!

Did you encounter elves during archeology? And then the elves came knocking on the door again?

Sha Duo had to think that if there was anything near the Saville Territory that could threaten the Tower of Time, it might be the mysterious elf mage in the forest.

But do elves really dare to attack the mage tower on human territory?

He was very suspicious, but the tower spirit's alarm could not be false. The Tower of Time must have encountered an enemy at this moment, but what Xia Duo did not expect was that the Tower of Time was no longer in its original position!

But in the ruins of Mystery Lock!

Soon, not long after the alarm sounded, the balance field in the magic laboratory that sorted out and stabilized the fluctuations of the magic network disappeared.

Xia Duo had to suspend the more dangerous overall experiment and switch to a safer element experiment. Even if there was an alarm, he did not panic at all.

Even if the sky falls, the tower will still hold up. He will continue to do whatever he has to do, but he is a little worried that Lord Epps may come to settle the score with him afterwards.

As for enemies, he didn't care about it. Attacking a fully functional mage tower was almost as difficult as attacking a fortress with a single soldier.

He found a comfortable position on the chair with great peace of mind and continued to study spells.

…

It is indeed not easy to attack the mage tower, but with the help of the Mystic Lock, the difficulty will be reduced a lot!

At the core of the plane exploration array, Epps listened expressionlessly as the tower spirit kept reporting where the mage tower was damaged and where it was restricted.

His mood did not fluctuate at all. At this moment, he already knew who was coming from outside - an elf high mage.

Or to be more precise, the soul of a high mage who controls the mythal lock!

This made him feel pressured, but that was all. As long as he survived, there would be hope. He believed that the opponent's possession of the secret lock would not be without cost.

"Master, the seventh level of the magic network is being isolated! The wind element pool is damaged!"

"Carry out the downgrade procedure as planned! Speed ​​it up a little more!"

"Master, the current downgrade speed has reached the limit. Any faster will lead to the loss of elements and cause irreversible damage to the Tower of Time!"

"Accelerate! As long as you survive this time, there will be plenty of time to repair in the future!" Epps said calmly.

He knew the opponent's methods very well, or in other words, as long as the mage tower designed by the great arcanist had a similar plan, he just had to follow it.

The elves do have a stronger understanding of the nature of the magic network than the Nese mages, and the Nese people are not as good as them in the depth of the magic network.

But in the basic field, the Nese people only need the first layer of magic net to produce an effect equivalent to the eleventh layer of magic net.

This is the principle of the downgrading program. Without the downgrading program, any mage tower that faces a certain layer of magic network that isolates the elves will eventually be unable to escape the fate of a pile of rubble.

However, through the downgrade process, the Mage Tower has very little dependence on the Magic Network. It only needs the first layer of the Magic Network to maintain most of its capabilities.

The downgrading procedure is also the most expensive and tedious part of the construction process of the Mage Tower, apart from the plane crystallization!

Currently, the Tower of Time has been downgraded to the sixth level, and the isolation of the external magic network has reached the seventh level. Epps does not believe that the other party can be isolated all the way to the first level.

If the first layer of the magic network is also isolated, then the basis for the existence of the mystery lock will no longer exist.

And if the Mystery Lock does not exist, how can the Magic Network be isolated?

As long as you downgrade to a shallower level of magic network in advance before the opponent isolates a certain level of magic network, you can ignore the opponent's method!

Even if the first layer of the magic network is also isolated, the Tower of Time still has a stone shell that acts as the final barrier. Why should the opponent break it if it loses its magical power?

…

"Master, the seventh level of the Magic Network has been completely isolated and is being downgraded at an accelerated pace. The alchemy arrays in the residences of Tower of Time members have been damaged, and the alchemy arrays on the public floor have been damaged."

well--

Epps sighed and adjusted his order, "Prioritize protecting the residences of Tower of Time members!"

The residence provided by the Tower of Time for official mages does not include alchemy circles. Those are all added by the official mages themselves, and there is no downgrading procedure to adapt to the mage tower.

In the process of the overall downgrade of the Tower of Time, those additional magic circles will inevitably be damaged. Fortunately, all losses are still within Epps's acceptance range.

At this moment, the tower spirit suddenly reminded: "Master, the isolation of the magic network has been stopped!"

When Epps heard this, he knew the real contest was coming! Although he didn't know what form the next attack would take, he was fearless!

…

At this moment, Master Luo Lun outside is close to the limit. Although he can continue to isolate the sixth layer of the magic network, he cannot play a decisive role.

In the process of isolating the magic network just now, he was also constantly testing the ability of this mage tower, and he didn't feel good about it. This was a mage tower designed by a great arcanist.

Fortunately, there was no Grand Arcanist inside, otherwise he would really be powerless.

"It seems like this is the only way!"

At this moment, Laurent had completely integrated into the Mystery Lock. He knew that he had only one last way to go - to break through the opponent's defense at the cost of destroying the current Mystery Lock.

This mysterious lock that he had just repaired and even had the potential to continue to improve, now only existed for a short while and was about to be destroyed.

Loren couldn't bear to destroy this supreme creation, but when he thought of the Stardew Scepter and the Tower of Fenowei still in the mage tower, he had to do it!

Even at the cost of his complete demise!
