Chapter 219: Shocking Changes in the Academy
Chapter 219: Shocking Changes in the Academy
In a workshop in the enchanting workshop, Walban came and met the wizard Mo Ling in the identity of Ivan.
"Wizard Mo Ling, what can I do for you?"
"There is a mission, I hope you can go, it is--"
"Sorry, I've been busy lately. Please find someone else."
Walban came and left in a hurry. Without waiting for Mo Ling to explain the task, he chose to refuse without saying a word.
In fact, Ivan's workload for this year was already full, with the investigation of Nightwood and the recruitment of apprentices in the near future, so he had no burden to refuse.
Mo Ling watched him walk out of the room, anger evident on her face, and cursed inwardly that this man was becoming more and more outrageous.
Thinking of the opponent's actual fighting power, she felt a little apprehensive. She thought about it angrily and did not pursue the matter further.
On the other side, in the underground secret room.
Since the basement has multiple layers of protection, direct contact would inevitably be disturbed. Walban contacted Andaya who was guarding outside. Andaya received a message from Walban and came deep underground to inform Ivan of the situation.
"According to what you said, Wolfan rejected Mo Ling in a tough manner. She shouldn't cause any trouble for you."
"I see."
"I remember that wizard Mo Ling was not the deacon of the enchantment group. Wizard Ivan just let her give you orders. In my opinion, you should not pay attention to her."
"They are all from Lidya's family, what's the difference?"
"You will only encourage their arrogance."
Ivan complained in his heart about Andaya's provocative words, saying it was as if you, the deacon, didn't let Wolfan convey the instructions. These kinds of things are never clear.
Ignoring Mo Ling's topic, Andaya asked about his research progress. After staying in the underground secret room for a while, she returned to the ground to take charge.
Before he knew it, more than ten days had passed since Ivan arrived at the underground secret room. According to his previous ideas, he had expanded the connection inside the statue by more than five times, and his observation field of view had also expanded several times.
"My capabilities are limited. I can only expand to this point."
He sighed with an inexplicable look on his face, then continued to observe and study the Ant King's barrier formation, looking for its flaws, loopholes, and places where things didn't run smoothly. These special locations were where he focused his attention.
A week later, Ivan made a request to Andaya. He needed some rare raw materials.
"There are some materials in there for hatching shadow ant servants, right? What do you want these materials for? These materials are somewhat sensitive. If you don't really need them, there's no need to make things complicated and attract other people's attention." Andaya couldn't help but ask.
"I want to try to make a key. You can think of it as a special array-breaking cone, specifically used to break the Ant King Barrier Array of the academy." Ivan explained casually.
With his current attainments in enchantment and his control over the Thousand Changing Star Talisman Array, it would not be difficult for him to develop a magic item that could pry open the Ant King's Barrier Array.
"Wait."
Three days later, Andaya brought the materials he listed, but she made a request, hoping that Ivan could make two "Breaking Cones", one for Ivan himself and one for them.
Ivan did not refuse. After all, it was just a mid-level magical item of average quality. Its function was slightly special and its actual effect was still unknown.
The days passed by.
That night, an unusual movement was heard in the hut in the Mona Ant Colony, like the buzzing of ants.
This was the alarm that sounded when a heavily guarded area in the college was touched, reminding people that someone had seriously violated the college's rules.
"This is not good. I didn't expect that the Mona Ant Farm hut also has a trick up its sleeve. Now we have no choice but to fight to the death."
"We already have the Duskstone, so there's no harm in having some fun with them."
"What nonsense are you talking about? Quickly notify the people outside to pick us up. We will execute the second plan and leave from the highest point. If we are late, we will die." In front of a secret vault, three outsiders had quietly sneaked into the Mona Ant Land hut and stole the Dusk Stele sealed in the secret vault. They had a bad accident and accidentally triggered the restriction hidden in the secret vault, revealing their tracks.
This is in the heart of the Mona Ant Colony's huts. The three of them must evacuate as soon as possible, otherwise they will easily be surrounded and killed.
The unusual alarm sounded, making the entire Mona Ant Farm hut tense, but most people didn't know what was going on and could only wait for notification.
In the underground secret room.
"what happened?"
Ivan was deep underground and also noticed the change. The Ant King's Barrier Array was shaking violently, causing the perception tendrils connected to it to break.
Before he could take the next step, Andaya hurried to the secret room.
"Wizard Ivan, the academy has been invaded by foreign enemies. We can't stay here anymore. Come with me and leave."
"Wait a moment."
Ivan did not suspect anything and simply packed up his things, followed Andaya out of the underground secret room and left the Three Towers Castle.
Not far from the Three Towers Castle, the two found an opportunity to return to their original appearance, which was much easier than pretending to be someone else.
"Don't worry, Wizard Chris Donner has already made arrangements."
Now that external enemies have appeared in the academy, there will inevitably be strict inspections. They will naturally have to return to their original identities to avoid becoming innocent victims.
At this moment, the gap in the dome of Ant-Man's Barrier seemed to be baptized by a thunder storm. The energy seemed particularly chaotic, the wind was swirling in the gap, and the lightning was dancing wildly, causing the soil on the edge of the gap to fall off bit by bit and turn into dust that was swept in.
"What a fierce move! It only took a short while to break the Ant King's barrier." Andaya stared blankly at the gap in the dome, with shock and confusion in her eyes. "What do you think?"
"If my guess is correct, these enemies have a deep understanding of Ant-Man's barrier, so they can break a passage before others can react."
Ivan had been studying the Ant King's Barrier before. He knew that although this protective barrier seemed impenetrable, it actually had many tiny loopholes. The reason was that the Ant King's Barrier had been damaged too many times.
Things that have been repaired will inevitably leave traces and naturally cannot be the same as new.
However, the Ant King Barrier Array is a protective array with 23 rune bundles. Breaking it is not an easy task and requires sufficient research and understanding of this array.
"You mean the mole? That--"
"No, the inner demon shouldn't be able to do this."
"Let's separate first, and remember to meet at the entrance of the academy later."
The two of them had to hurry, so Andaya gave him a few instructions and hurried away.
Ivan chose another direction and made a half circle. When he arrived at the entrance of the academy, a large number of wizards had already arrived, and many of them had angry looks on their faces.
Most of the wizards who took part in the pursuit came from hunting teams, patrol teams and picket teams. There were even two chief deacons. However, there were not many people from the three major families.
"Wizard Ivan, we know that your speed in the sky is extraordinary. Please come with us to hunt down the enemy." Chris Donner said to him.
"It's my duty." Ivan replied solemnly.
A group of more than twenty wizards came out of the barrier and found that the Octopus Black Spider clan had suffered heavy casualties. Even the leader Harun was killed. Only two or three kittens were left in the clan.
Led by two chief deacons and several deacons, the group divided into several teams and chased around the academy, vowing to strangle the crazy thief who dared to invade the academy.
