Chapter 1439: Blockade and pursuit,
the ground collapsed?
At the moment of the collapse, Ronald was still confused as to why this happened.
After all, the enemy beneath him was completely restrained by him.
No matter whether the opponent's will or action is now, it is impossible for him to release spells to save himself. This kind of spell that can destroy the entire land is even more impossible to cast at such a close distance, completely concealing his insight.
——So where does the problem occur?
After the surface of the island collapsed, Ronald's feet no longer touched the ground. When he looked down, he saw a huge depression suddenly appeared in the sea water, and he was falling into the extremely dark abyss.
During this process, Ronald's eyes passed through the false scene below, and finally stayed on the position leading deeper underground.
Ronald realized what was wrong.
It was the [Nine Rings Secret Society] caster who stayed inside the ruins and did not show up in the end!
It was previously sealed by the opponent due to detection spells.
Ronald lost track of the remaining spellcaster beneath the surface.
I am afraid that it was precisely during this period that the caster who stayed underground felt the fierce battle taking place on the ground and naturally began to take action.
Then, the enemy who had been hiding under the ground until just now finally felt that an opportunity was coming.
The opportunity he seized shattered the earth, causing Ronald and his companions to fall together at this moment!
"..."
At this time, we can no longer insist on asking for information.
Under special circumstances, Ronald's reaction was quite decisive. He immediately swung his sword and slashed at the [Nine Rings Secret Society] in front of him, intending to kill the opponent here.
Bang——
But just as the sword waved its hand, a huge boulder suddenly appeared from the false illusion and hit the two people who were falling.
Ronald, who was taking action, had nowhere to rely on in the air.
After withstanding the attack, the two people who originally fell vertically were forced to change the direction of their fall.
"It's this guy underground who is interfering again."
Ronald knew the source of this change, but there was really no good way to deal with the situation at the moment.
Because the shortcomings left by the previous battle were revealed at this moment.
After dealing with five original holders of the [Nine Rings Secret Society] in succession, Ronald had actually used most of the spells in his hands once, and it was not yet time to use them again.
So in addition to simply controlling the body to prevent yourself from losing balance when falling.
He really doesn't have any extra time to deal with the enemy who is moving away from him!
Boom!
Not long after, there was an impact under Ronald's feet, and he finally landed on the ground.
Only when he came into contact with the earth again did he regain the ability to examine the environment.
There is a huge cavity beneath the island, and there are several artificially developed tunnels around it, leading to various locations.
[The Secret Society of the Nine Rings] has obviously been developed here to a very high degree.
But Ronald is not in the mood to carefully examine the environment here.
He aimed at the enemy locked in his emotional perception, exerted force with his feet, and chased towards the opposite side.
That's the farthest tunnel to the east.
The spacious environment is suitable for quick escape, while the complex terrain can also provide some cover.
Ronald follows in hot pursuit.
In the end, he barely reached the entrance of the cave, and his steps stopped unconsciously.
At this moment, Ronald felt that his physical fitness had suddenly increased, and the spell enhancement from "Origin of Species" was back!
In contrast, the spell in "Hell" was sealed again.
The figure he had just put under surveillance naturally disappeared as the power of hell dissipated.
Now it's obvious.
The person who rescued the holder of "On the Nature of Things" released the other person's control of the spirit of speech. The awakened enemy also made the most correct choice - to block Ronald's powerful reconnaissance capabilities again.
After all, for him who was seriously injured, buying time at this moment was undoubtedly the most correct and most important choice.
"Sigh -"
"Fighting such a smart enemy is troublesome."
Ronald sighed. Although his expression was bitter, he did not hide his appreciation for the enemy's decisive decision.
Then the mark of the original scripture on his hand flashed, and Ronald switched to the original scripture and recited the incantation:
"Starting from the relationship between the entire earth and the sky, we will begin to form our understanding."
The ability of "Almagest" unfolded again.
Ronald activated the [Astrolabe] and began to collect data on nearby terrain.
With precise spell mapping, the entire underground space of the island began to unfold in detail in front of him.
The church ruins hidden underground are mainly divided into three floors.
Ronald is now standing on the top floor, and there are two large holes below. There are four tunnels that can lead to them, and the one in front of him is one of them.
Enemies in panic will most likely flee deeper underground to avoid their own pursuit.
Thinking of this, Ronald did not immediately go deep underground to search for the other party.
Instead, he turned his attention to the other three tunnels.
——This is something that must be dealt with before going down.
Ronald turned around and destroyed all the remaining three tunnels that could lead to the underground.
The whole process didn't take too long.
Due to the change in the sealing spell of "On the Nature of Things", Ronald's full physical strength returned again. He smashed and sealed the three tunnels, which only took a few minutes in total.
"Sir, how are you?"
At this moment, the maid's voice suddenly came from a distance.
After the island's ground shattered, a huge pit of considerable size was formed nearby. Just at the edge of this area, Costate's figure reappeared, staring closely at Ronald in the pit.
When Ronald was fighting the enemy, the maid was not idle.
Using this period of time, she had completely defeated the enemy they initially faced, and only now came here to prepare to support her master.
"Costat, you came just in time!" Ronald greeted the maid, but made a gesture to tell her not to come over, and then explained loudly, "Two enemies escaped underground, I am ready now Chase."
"You stay here and don't let anyone get out from here!" "
By the way, there's a guy up there who can clone himself. You'd better pay attention."
After hearing Ronald's order, the maid naturally understood it and immediately said,
"Sir, please leave it to me!"
"Costat guarantees that no one will escape from here."
Give Costate the task.
After eliminating the possibility that after he pursues him, the other party can escape back to the ground through other tunnels and leave the island.
Ronald finally stopped staying.
After calculating the terrain data, he chased directly underground deep in the tunnel.
