Struggle in the Steam Age

"Look at this group of sahuagins, they are not completely relaxed. At least this core area seems to be well guarded." After carefully observing the core cave where those extraordinary sahuagins are located, Na La murmured silently in her heart. "And there are so many detection magics prepared in the whole house."

As the inspection deepened, Nora found that the control hub of the large magic circle in the outer cave hall, which was used to kill the Roka murloc eggs, was in this small cave.

It's just that unlike Lawrence and the others who guessed that they could carry the mobile hub on their bodies, the technical level of this group of sahuayu people is much worse than what everyone guessed before. So this hub was fixed in the small cave where this group of sahuagin was.

At the same time, because the opponent's technology is so poor, there is no way to hide the connection between the magic circle and the hub. Under such circumstances, as the little puppet further perceives the space where the sahuagin transcendent in front is located, she soon discovers that the hub of the magic circle is placed on a stone platform in the center of the room .

It's not that the sahuayu people don't know that their skills are too poor, so they thought of a certain way to make up for it in the design of the mechanism. For example, the energy of the entire magic circle and the magic circle itself are actually all in the big pit where the Roka murloc fish eggs are placed, and the so-called hub is more like an insurance.

For example, here, a crystal ball is placed on the stone platform as the hub, and this crystal ball is the most important part to ensure the smooth flow of magic power inside the insurance company. If the crystal ball is removed from the shallow groove of the stone platform, the flow of magic power inside the entire insurance will stop, and at the same time, the magic circle in the big pit outside will also be activated after the magic power in the inner insurance stops flowing. Kill all Roka murloc eggs in the pit.

For Nora, this design has both good and bad aspects. The good side is that this thing is not like the most disgusting kind that is connected to someone's life, so that you have to restrain your hands when fighting .

The bad side is that this thing can be activated physically, that is to say, if all the sahuagin superhumans in the room cannot be killed at the same time at the same time, any of them may activate this mechanism.

That's why Nora didn't go to remove the magic circle in the pit with fish eggs outside first, because she is not good at this kind of work, and she is worried that if any touch is not good and the magic circle is directly activated, it will be miserable .

After all, the design of the entire magic system here constitutes a fragile overall structure, and as long as there is an extremely small deviation, it will cause a devastating blow to the loka fish-merman fish eggs that have been kidnapped as hostages.

In human society, the structure of this magic circle is only used in rare cases. Because although the magic circle of this configuration is absolutely sensitive, the problem is that it is too easy to be triggered by mistake. For the vast majority of magic circle users, the harm caused by the magic circle that may be triggered by some tiny accident at any time far outweighs the benefits.

As for the sahuayu people making such a choice, it is not incomprehensible. On the one hand, it is difficult to ensure that the magic circle has a sufficient response speed with their technology, so it is inevitable to sacrifice part of the security. On the other hand, in their eyes, the Roka murloc's eggs were destroyed as soon as they were destroyed, and the losses caused by mistakes were within an acceptable range.

Under such a premise, Nora felt that it would be more realistic for her to kill the sahuagin superhumans guarding the stone platform and crystal in one go. Fortunately, through observation, the little puppet realized that the supernatural beings in this room are in a very relaxed state, and more importantly, they have not discovered their own existence. If there is a chance, they can launch a surprise attack to deal with them.

So Nora began to release silk threads thinner than spider silk little by little, and manipulated these threads to float into the room along the water flow, because the power contained in these threads was extremely weak, so the four in the room None of the sahuagin transcendents discovered the power of these accidental intrusions.

Think about it, too, for a silver-level extraordinary spellcaster whose level is lower than ordinary and an extraordinary warrior with a lower level. Even if they face a normal-level gold-level transcendent, they won't have much power to fight back, let alone a top-level gold-level transcendent like Nora who is good at concealment.

So until those silk threads covered the entire cave, the group of sahuagin superhumans in the cave didn't find any hands and feet done by the little puppet, and this opportunity was perfect enough for Nora to let her The safest thing to do is to kill these sahuagin and save the rocagin eggs.

After the last silk thread reached the designated position, Nora immediately entered her fighting state. If someone sees her at this time, they will definitely see her as an ordinary doll, because at this time, the human side of Nora's original face has completely disappeared, and the whole has entered a kind of extreme rationalization.

"Just wait for the next second." Nora said to herself in an extremely flat tone, and at the same time, the five fingers of her left hand snapped together into a fist. At the same time, all the silk threads that floated into the cave before suddenly turned into reality, and then turned into a large silver net that enveloped everyone in the cave.

The few sahuagin warriors on the periphery were all doing their own things before, and they didn't realize that the cave they were in had been completely covered by the silk threads quietly released by the little doll along the water. Therefore, at the moment when Nora activated them, they were cut into several groups of flesh and blood fragments, each of which was the size of a fist at most, floating along the water without any resistance.

And the sahuagin witch doctor, who is the core guardian of the area, reacted when the little puppet made those silk threads turn into reality, and tried to dodge with a diving leap, and at the same time released a water arrow to hit The crystal ball on the table tried to activate the magic circle outside to destroy the fish eggs belonging to the Loka murlocs.

"Pfft—" The water arrow hit exactly where the sahuagin witch doctor wanted to hit, but it didn't achieve the effect he wanted. Because when the water arrow just flew to the center of the cave, it was blocked by a cocoon woven of silver-green light that covered the entire crystal ball and the stone platform below it from top to bottom, and then it was completely blocked by the cocoon. The magic is gone.

"Zi la————" At the same time, a large amount of silver-green light flocked to the sahuagin witch doctor from all directions, although a crystal brooch and a pearl necklace on the sahuagin witch doctor each popped out. The transparent magic barriers tried to intercept them, but these barriers burst like soap bubbles as soon as they came into contact with the silk threads, and then the silk threads smoothly passed through the sahuagin witch doctor's body.

"Ha, it's done." After seeing the sahuagin witch doctor turned into a pile of pieces like those sahuagin warriors in front of her eyes, Nora slowly appeared from the water. "Sure enough, you have to prepare well in advance, otherwise, no matter how weak the enemy is, there is a possibility of a comeback."

After finishing speaking, Nora felt the mechanism in front of her to make sure that the entire magic circle was normal, and then called Lawrence through the soul connection. "My lord, now that I have controlled the location of the Roka murloc eggs, it's your turn to act."

"Have you got it done? That's great." Lawrence, who was outside the cave, immediately patted Safiel beside him after receiving Nora's notification and made a previously agreed gesture. The loaded underwater crossbow jumped out of the hiding place, aimed at the group of sahuagin guards at the hole in front of it, and pulled the trigger.
