Chapter 257 Repairing the Seal
However, just when Petain was less than tens of meters away from Audlina, a huge black coffin tore the air and suddenly crashed into Petain with a whistling sound.
Feeling the fatal threat approaching at an extremely fast speed, Pétain didn't have time to think too much. He gritted his teeth and immediately stepped back, decisively giving up the fight for the golden badge in Adelina's hand.
boom!
The black coffin fell into the deep pit, and the terrifying impact caused the ground around it to shake significantly for hundreds of meters.
At the same time, the black light in the distance also arrived near the deep pit.
Just as Petain had guessed, the black light that had just arrived was Simon, who had been delayed by the bloodline shadow he had created earlier.
Simon, who was dressed in black and wearing a monocle, glanced at Audrina who was not far away.
Although the other party was seriously injured, his life was not in danger for the time being.
So he waved decisively, calling back the black coffin in the pit, and at the same time said coldly to Petain and Camp:
"You two, why don't you come and compete with me?"
Hearing Simon's voice, Petain His heart was shocked, and he had an angry look on his face:
"Damn it, why are you still haunting me?"
The bloodline shadow from before consumed a quarter of his bloodline, and he didn't expect that the sacrifice would make him extremely painful. The price was high, but it couldn't delay Simon for even half a minute.
Pétain knew that even if he and Camp combined, he may not be Simon's opponent, he gritted his teeth and said in a short and urgent voice: "
Camp, don't waste time meaninglessly, let's withdraw!"
In Pétain's view, The ancient witch formation in the secret world has now been successfully destroyed. Since there is no chance to obtain the golden badge, staying here will only delay the next step of the plan.
So he led Kemp and quickly fled into the distance.
During the flight, Petain decisively used his golden badge to open the passage to the outside world.
In just a few seconds, Petain and the two completely rushed into the passage leading to the outside world.
Just before Simon followed closely and was about to enter the passage, under the control of Pétain, the passage to the outside world quickly closed.
Simon, who was unable to leave the secret world at the same time as Petain, frowned.
With a thought, Simon, who realized the other party's purpose, decisively contacted the three Rudolfs who were still outside, and conveyed to the three people the news that Petain and Kemp had returned to the outside world.
After receiving Simon's reminder, the three Rudolfs, who were relying on the academy's wizard array and located inside the academy to continuously fight back against the large number of hostile wizard apprentices outside the barrier of the wizard array, quickly strengthened their internal vigilance.
As the war really began and time gradually passed, the number of hostile academy apprentices besieging the Nine-ring White Tower continued to increase.
Now there are far more than the original dozen fifth-class apprentices, there are dozens of fourth-class apprentices, and nearly a hundred third-class apprentices.
As for the lower first and second class apprentices, due to their negligible role and in order to facilitate hiding, they did not appear in the battle to siege the Nine Rings White Tower Branch.
Not long after Simon reminded the three of them, they returned to the outside world. The two Petains who appeared inside the college wizard array brazenly launched a sneak attack on the three of Rudolph.
However, due to Simon's warning in advance, the sneak attack by Pétain and his two men failed without any surprise.
After that, the two Petains, who failed in their sneak attack, and the hostile college coalition forces from the Nine-ring White Tower, who were blocked outside the college wizard array and were constantly releasing witchcraft and indiscriminately bombing the wizard array, had a competition with Rudolph. Lina and Ganon are three fifth-level instructors fighting together.
Relying on the barrier of the academy wizard array at the official wizard level, plus the help of Selina, who is a fifth-level necromancer apprentice and can summon seven or eight fifth-level undead at once.
Rudolf, the three fifth-level instructors of the Nine-ring White Tower Branch, fell into a brief stalemate with Petain and hundreds of third- to fifth-level apprentices outside the academy.
At the same time, Simon, who was still in the secret world, was waiting for Audlina to heal his injuries. He felt the increasingly strong strange power around him, and immediately said: "I was blocked by
that guy Pétain before, but now Continue the previous goal, enter the depths of the secret world, and check the ancient seal wizard array."
Hearing Simon's suggestion, Audlina nodded.
With the two of them running at full speed, it only took a few minutes to return to the previous location and enter the passage to the depths of the secret world.
When Simon came to his senses again, the two of them were already in the depths of the secret world, in the ancient witch formation that sealed the "Egg of the Evil God".
Looking at the scene with cracks in front of him, nearly half of the nodes of the witch formation damaged, and the dark heart called "Egg of the Evil God" beating suddenly inside, Simon frowned and asked Audlina beside him without looking back. :
"Audlina, you are quite proficient in the wizard array. Do you have any way to repair this ancient seal wizard array that seals the 'Egg of the Evil God'?" Audley looked at
the dilapidated ancient seal wizard array in front of him. After a brief observation, a look of confusion appeared on Na's face:
"I have studied this ancient seal witch formation before. According to my judgment, the level of this ancient seal witch formation has surpassed the level of the first-level formal wizard from the outside world. "
With my level, it is impossible to completely restore this ancient era's long-lost sealing wizard array. If it is a formal wizard who is proficient in the wizard array in the mainland academy, it may be feasible..." At this point,
Austrian Delina paused for a moment.
At this point, the ancient sealing witch formation that wants to repair the "Egg of the Evil God" can't rely on official wizards from the mainland thousands of miles apart.
Currently, she is the only one in the academy who is reliable and has the potential to repair this ancient sealing witch formation.
Realizing this, Audlina changed the topic and said in a heavy voice:
"There is no other way at the moment. Although I cannot completely repair the ancient sealing witchcraft formation, I may be able to temporarily delay the collapse of the sealing witchcraft formation. The time when the egg's seal is broken."
"It's just that during this period of time, I have to stay here and cannot leave."
Hearing Adelina's answer, Simon's eyes flashed and he said calmly:
"Don't worry. Come here. I will go to the outside world to support Rudolf and the others later. Before I leave, I will reinforce the entrance here to prevent Petain and the others from trying to counterattack." "Then I'll leave it to you." After that,
Audlina
mobilized With its own authority, the sealing witch formation increased its efforts to suppress the "evil of the evil god".
Then she moved and rushed straight into the ancient sealing formation. Under the protection of the sealing witchcraft formation, she began to try to repair the witchcraft formation and delay the time when the "Evil God's Egg" would break the seal.
As the vice-president of this branch and the defender of the college's wizard array, Audlina is the least likely candidate among the seven fifth-level instructors to betray the Nine-ring White Tower.
Not to mention the contract she signed, which was more stringent than other fifth-level instructors.
If she betrayed him, Pétain didn't need to wait until now to take action. He could have used Audlina to attack the academy's wizard formation long ago.
Therefore, Simon was relatively relieved about handing over the sealing witch formation to Adelina.
Seeing that Audlina had already started trying to repair the ancient sealing witch formation, Simon no longer delayed and quickly turned back along the passage in the direction he came from.
After a while, Simon's figure rushed out of the tens of thousands of meters long passage connecting the depths of the secret world to the surface.
Looking around, Simon's eyes moved slightly when he saw that there were no other dangerous factors around.
He used witchcraft to pull the surrounding soil and completely cover and fill the passage.
Realizing that this alone could not prevent others from breaking into the depths of the secret world for a long time, Simon, after a brief thought, took off the heavy black coffin on his back.
"It seems that this is the only way."
Simon breathed out softly and opened the black coffin.
Looking at the slightly damaged pale bones lying quietly in the coffin, Simon's eyes flashed with a trace of cruelty. His palm turned into a hand knife that gathered the rich power of death, and he suddenly shot at the bones in front of him.
Click! Under Simon's sword attack, which gathered a large amount of death power, the left arm of the skeleton in the black coffin, which was protecting Simon from the damage, was cut off from the shoulder.
Immediately afterwards, Simon picked up the skeletal arm that he had chopped off, and after injecting a large amount of death power, he threw it into the soil at the temporarily blocked passage to the depths of the secret world.
The fake skeleton created by the coffin can bear the damage on Simon's behalf and increase the counter-injury effect on the harmer.
Simon chose to leave the arm of the skeleton in the coffin here. Although it ensured Audrina's safety, it also made the forgery of the coffin vulnerable.
Now, the skeleton that has lost his left arm will be temporarily unable to protect Simon from the damage to his left arm until it is restored.
"This should be no problem."
After looking at the skeletal arm with no trace of it anymore, Simon breathed a sigh of relief, and disappeared in a flash.
However, after Simon left the place, he did not immediately return to the outside world to support Rudolph and others.
Since he had previously learned that Rudolph and others from the outside world could still support themselves for the time being, after some thought, Simon decided to rescue the remaining surviving apprentices in the secret world first.
"Let's confirm the positions of Yihua and Rey first."
After looking at the positions of the surviving apprentices in the secret world.
Simon immediately locked onto the apprentice group that was relatively close. With Simon's speed, it would only take a few minutes to arrive. The group was also relatively large, close to two hundred people.
——At
the same time, located near the giant lumen stone vein, a group of Illuminati apprentices, led by Yihua, began to pick up and absorb points from the tokens left by the surrounding dead apprentices.
Not long after, Yihua, who was absorbing the points, felt that he had collected a lot of points. He called up the current points ranking again -
[Apprentice Exam Real-time Score List]
[First Place - Yihua Feier Sith - currently holds points: 20085 points]
[Second place - Melkor Fabuti - currently holds points: 15338 points]
[Third place - Rey Fersis - currently Points held: 10,325 points]
...
[Three thousand five hundred and sixty-fourth... Points held currently: 21 points]
Now Yihua is already the first place in this apprenticeship examination, plus the number in the secret world Due to various changes, it is still unknown whether this apprenticeship examination can end normally.
Therefore, the extra points are worthless to Yihua.
He decisively distributed the remaining points, including the giant lumen stone veins that the apprentices had previously competed for, to the remaining Illuminati apprentices, as well as Anna and others.
The Illuminati has followed Yihua to this day, and their trust in Yihua has been rewarded at this moment.
In a short time, many Illuminati apprentices divided up the tokens of all the dead apprentices on the field and the points in the giant lumen stone veins.
Although the other apprentices rescued by Yi Hua looked a little greedy, they did not dare to step forward to fight for it.
After absorbing at least tens of thousands of points, the hundreds of Illuminati apprentices present almost all squeezed into the 500 or so apprenticeships for this year's apprenticeship exam. People like Levi, Anna and others even entered this year's apprenticeship exam. Top 100 in the exam.
At the same time, in order to find out the number of apprentices remaining in the secret world, Yihua once again called up the real-time scoreboard -
[Real-time Scoreboard for Apprentice Examination]
[First Place - Ihua Fersis - Currently holding Points: 33285 points]
[Second place - Rey Felsis - currently holds points: 10325 points]
[Third place - Gabriel Fanell - currently holds points: 7789 Points]
...
[3131st...Currently points: 26 points]
Looking at the last place in the real-time standings floating in front of him, Yihua thought to himself:
"There are more than 3,000 people left? This number probably still has a lot of water..."
Only when the points in the point token completely return to zero will the corresponding apprentice be truly removed from the real-time standings.
Nowadays, many apprentices died in the daytime of the previous secret world, and the tokens were left outside and no one picked them up.
This also led to the fact that the real-time standings that Yihua viewed through the token actually had a lot of moisture.
Only fifth-level instructors with gold badges can directly find out the true number of surviving apprentices in the secret world through higher authority.
In Yihua's judgment, after experiencing several changes in the secret world, the number of remaining apprentices at this moment should not exceed 2,000.
In the worst case scenario, there are only about a thousand apprentices left in the secret world.
Just when everyone had just picked up the tokens left on the ground, the ground suddenly shook violently.
In just a few seconds, several bottomless cracks appeared in the surrounding ground.
"What happened?"
"Is it an earthquake?"
"Disperse quickly!"
A group of apprentices around the giant lumen stone vein immediately prepared themselves and entered a state of alert due to the sudden vibration of the earth.
Suddenly, a large amount of strange, pitch-black power visible to the naked eye escaped from the cracks in the earth.
The apprentices who were near the crack felt the heart-stopping aura of the strange, pitch-black power, and they scattered around to dodge.
In the next moment, the originally dark sky suddenly changed, becoming as bright as day as before.
The darkness that originally existed outside the light zone once again disappeared without a trace.
Looking at the familiar scene in front of him, Yihua frowned.
"Could it be that daytime is coming again?"
According to the previously obtained information, the daytime period in the secret world is relatively short, and usually only occurs once in three days in the apprenticeship examination.
