Emperor of Arcane

Chapter 698 Mystery Lock Core (8000)



"Twenty minutes countdown, let's withdraw first.

"Check the controller signal again."

Make sure all alchemy bombs have been placed.

Ani gave the order to retreat.

What she has to do this time is far more important than capturing a few prisoners.

The Gray Elf reformed warriors hiding in the darkness quickly retreated in an orderly manner.

Ordinary Cole Elf warriors were unable to notice their departure.

He just rushed towards the bombed lord's mansion.

Tens of thousands of Cole Elf soldiers rushed onto the streets one after another, trying to sweep away the hiding enemies.

After the control core of the Lord's Mansion was destroyed.

The various magic circles and barriers throughout the Cole Elf Fortress have gradually become ineffective.

The attackers completed the transfer very easily through the temporarily arranged teleportation array.

When thousands of Cole Elf warriors rushed into the Lord's Mansion, trying to rescue and defend again.

The extremely violent explosion completely engulfed the entire Lord's Mansion.

The deadly and terrifying flames illuminated a dark red valley.

Boom!

The huge fortress was surrounded by fire.

The attackers who successfully carried out the sneak attack have been teleported to another location.

This destroyed lord's mansion is just their first target!

Paris, who was extremely excited, looked at the gray elf transformed warriors that kept popping up.

After confirming that everyone had arrived, he made a departure gesture.

They moved silently up through the tunnel, quickly heading towards their intended target.

Not far away on the street, one after another Cole Elf patrol team gathered towards the Lord's Mansion.

"Quick, quick, get into a defensive position!"

"Always watch out for artillery attacks."

"Go to the warehouse and prepare protective fences!"

"Protect the Battle Mage."

"Others occupied the streets, clearing the rooms and making sure the enemy couldn't use them as cover."

"All soldiers must enter through the side door. Anyone who violates this rule will be considered an enemy in disguise."

They got news that other fortress lords' mansions had been destroyed.

The Cole Elf commander immediately made defense adjustments based on the intelligence of the attack.

They must block possible enemy attacks before activating the defensive array in the Lord's Mansion.

Only 5 minutes!

The defensive array will be fully activated!

I have to say that the Cole Elf commanders are all excellent.

Unfortunately, although their combat experience is rich, they are constrained by past experiences and methods.

The previous frontal assault by the assault force was just to attract attention.

What they really want to do is to launch a deadly sneak attack underground!

Boom!

A violent heavy shotgun, spitting out hundreds of deadly steel balls, emerged from under the floor.

It caused a devastating blow to the Cole Elf warriors in the Tibetan Soldier Cave.

The steel balls with extremely strong impact not only shattered the floor, but also penetrated their armor and made bloody holes in their bodies.

Even a small number of Cole Elf warriors who activated their magic shields only lasted two or three seconds longer.

The deadly metal storm broke through the protection and tore through the body.

Click!

Boom!

The burly body violently smashed open the floor and emerged from the flying dirt.

They strode out of the cave, ignoring the wailing Cole elf warriors, and rushed into the corridors and aisles.

The huge movement here immediately attracted the attention of the Cole Elf guarding troops in other directions.

The Cole Elf guard troops who reacted immediately rushed over following the sound and the smell of blood.

They just rushed around the corner.

Elf warriors wearing heavy combat armor were already lining up and walking over.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

Neat footsteps, burly figure, and the distance keeps getting closer.

The Cole Elf guards raised their shields in panic and shouted loudly:

"Enemy found!"

"Heavy combat armor found!"

"attack!"

"They're attacking inside!"

"Request support!"

"..."

Before they could react, the three heavy combat armors walking side by side pulled the trigger without hesitation.

Bang! Bang! Bang!

The violent metal warheads jumped crazily in the narrow passage five to six meters wide.

Heavy shotgun with optimal range enhanced to 30 meters.

In this narrow straight channel, hundreds of warheads were released instantly.

Bang!

Wow!

Peng! Peng!

The bright golden light shield was destroyed by the terrifying strange force, and a large sunken hole was punched in the center.

The soldiers at the rear flew out, knocking down their companions who couldn't dodge.

Small bullet holes covered it, bringing out surging blood drops.

The Cole Elf warriors who didn't react trembled and twitched all over, bursting out clouds of blood mist.

The soldiers in the rear fell in pieces.

The gushing blood, broken shields, weapons, and mutilated bodies made the entire passage look extremely miserable.

The strong smell of blood quickly spread, attracting more Cole elf guards to arrive.

"Don't come over, retreat quickly!"

"Hide in the room and call for support!"

"Kill them! Quick!"

"Can't back down!"

"Use ranged weapons!"

"They're heading to the control center!"

"We have to stop them!"

"..."

The sounds one after another echoed in the broken passage.

More and more Cole Elf warriors gathered, but they were completely unable to break through the metal storm of the heavy shotguns.

Paris, with an expressionless face, gave orders to the El Elf transformed warriors wearing heavy combat armor:

"Each team heads to the designated combat area."

"Resolutely defend and strictly prohibit pursuit."

"Our mission time is still three minutes!"

One after another, heavy combat armors quickly advanced towards the passages everywhere.

It only took them more than ten seconds to kill all the enemies they encountered along the way.

4 passages were advanced and 6 intersections were blocked.

The following team members advance in the opposite direction.

They immediately went deep into the lord's mansion and attacked the Cole Elf warriors who rushed out.

The latter hit the muzzle of the gun and were beaten into sieves in the narrow passage.

It doesn't take a while.

The El Elf transformation warriors rushed inside and quickly rushed to several key node locations, preparing to control internal and external access.

Their actions were fast, their goals were extremely clear, and their strikes were decisive and precise, showing their super high assault literacy.

In fact, every El Elven reformed warrior who participated in the raid was not only outstanding in strength, but also excellent in cooperation.

They have received thousands of repeated raid trainings, participated in actual combat training of the Gulf leading forces, and the two sides have conducted many drills and battles.

They had been preparing for this raid for three months.

Because of this, their raids and advances were so smooth.

In stark contrast, the Cole Elf warriors barely put up much resistance.

Most of them only wore light armor, and their weapons were bows, arrows and swords. They were helpless against the advancing El Elf transformed warriors wearing heavy combat armor.

Even though their professional levels are good, they can't withstand the overwhelming amount of shotgun bullets.

In the collision with the El Elf transformed warriors, they were clearly at a disadvantage.

The defense suffered heavy losses in manpower and key areas were lost.

The El Elf transformation warriors took over the inner control area and did not continue to advance inward. Instead, they built a defense line on the spot.

Raid control center mission.

Leave it to the stronger dragon warriors!

The difference between dragon warriors and transformation warriors.

It depends on whether all transformation specialties are successfully activated!

The former is stronger and can continue to undergo transformation to achieve continuous progress in body and career path.

The latter's transformation failed midway, and his physical strength and qualifications were improved. From now on, he can only firmly follow the path of a professional.

There is no essential difference between the two.

However, the Dragon Warrior is more compatible with the Thunder Magic Armor and has a stronger carrying capacity.

Therefore, they continue to complete the transformation and transformation of their bodies.

The success rate of El Elf Dragon Warrior transformation is only about 40%, less than half that of humans.

It's not that Matthew has tampered with this aspect, but that the transformation of the El Elf and the Dragon Warrior is not completely compatible.

The same goes for the transformation of the gray elves.

Compared with human warriors, they have outstanding physique, strong compatibility, and very balanced characteristics in other directions.

Whether it is a gray elf dragon warrior or an El elf dragon warrior.

They are more about making up for the deficiencies in strength and physique, and taking a step further in their agility specialties.

The improvement in this aspect has also brought them a great increase in combat effectiveness.

They can also wear and use some heavy weapons and heavy equipment.

In this narrow passage, heavy shotguns, armor-piercing bursting crossbows, and bolt guns all unleashed extremely astonishing lethality.

There are hundreds of Cole Elf elite warriors inside the Lord's Mansion.

Not only are they powerful and experienced in combat, they also possess very sophisticated weapons and equipment.

However, when they pushed forward and took the initiative to attack, they were blocked in this small and deadly space.

Faced with all kinds of violent long-range attacks, he was completely unable to use his fighting skills, and was beaten through in just a few hits.

Especially when various long-range attacks are mixed with various armor-piercing, demon-breaking, and explosive destructive powers, passive defense quickly falls into a disadvantage.

They could only flee and dodge in embarrassment, being chased by the advancing dragon warriors.

There were obviously more of them, but they could only get stuck at the interface between corners and passages, trying desperately to block and fight.

Unfortunately, the dragon warriors' surprise attack was swift and deadly.

As they marched, they had already pulled the trigger and fired the arrows.

On the contrary, the Cole Elf elites who rushed over had high-level or even super-level combat capabilities.

But after withstanding the fierce attack, he was unable to penetrate the shields held high by the dragon warriors and the protection of the thunder magic armor.

Close combat with crispy warriors.

Either kill the opponent with injury in exchange for injury.

Or be torn to pieces by violent attacks!

After being attacked, the dragon warriors only need to pull the trigger step by step.

Jet warheads, crossbow bolts, explosive arrows, and even destructive flames can easily eliminate opponents.

It only took about ten seconds.

The Cole Elf elites who tried to trap them all turned into mutilated corpses.

In the process, the dragon warriors fought with the Cole Elf elites who were not afraid of death, and naturally suffered some damage.

But their cooperation is extremely sophisticated.

One person was injured, and others immediately stepped forward to take his place.

The latter continued to shoot and suppress while recovering.

Their steps were firm and their strikes were ruthless, like heavy hammers pushing forward arbitrarily.

In comparison, the Cole Elf elites, who were full of fighting spirit and flying swords, looked like a piece of loose sand.

The dragon warriors rushed over arrogantly and smashed into pieces.

The elites fought hard for three waves, but all ended up with corpses all over the ground.

The remaining Cole Elf elites did not choose to rush out. Instead, they hid and tried to launch a defensive counterattack.

Dragon warriors are not only powerful in combat, but also extremely familiar with the terrain.

As if they were at home, they smashed the door lightly and pointed the flamethrower inside.

Whoops!

The rolling flames greedily burned the entire space.

The Cole elves hiding inside had no time to resist and struggle, and were instantly burned into balls of charcoal.

Their struggle and resistance turned into futility and ashes.

The Cole Elf warriors hiding behind the bunker launched a fierce attack with grief and anger.

Unfortunately, the narrow passage limits their lethality.

The dragon warriors would only withstand the attack and charge forward when launching a surprise attack.

Without the accumulation of time and repetitions, they would be completely unable to break through the dragon warrior's defense.

Can't be killed, can't be stopped.

After the most bloody group of Cole Elf elites died in battle, the rest collapsed.

They fled back one after another, and at the same time told the rear about the attack.

The dragon warriors continued to advance without encountering much hindrance.

They can always be one step ahead, aware of the enemy's position and movements, and can easily fire in advance to eliminate the opponent in an instant.

It felt as if these enemies came to the door deliberately and let them massacre.

The only combat unit that delayed them for some time.

They are four burly and huge steel golems!

They blocked the entrance to the deeper part of the lord's mansion. After noticing the arrival of the dragon warrior, they spit out dark green poisonous gas without hesitation.

This poisonous gas is quite deadly to most high-level professionals.

Even many ultra-level professionals must deal with them carefully.

However, the dragon warriors stepped forward without any scruples, ignoring the high-level poisonous gas around them, and launched a siege on the steel puppets that rushed over.

Bang! Bang! Bang!

Several rounds of heavy shotguns went first, hitting the steel golem's body with tiny dents.

The massive steel golem was not seriously damaged.

But when faced with the armor-piercing, demon-breaking blasting arrow, the steel golem couldn't hold on.

Groups of bursting flames tore apart their bodies, blasting out large holes.

The huge body of the steel golem collapsed, its head and control core were completely destroyed, and it could not even stop the dragon warriors.

Leave the combatants who are stuck at key node locations outside.

The El Elf Dragon warriors who kept advancing were fighting deeper into the lord's mansion.

The Cole Elf warriors along the way have lost their ability to stop them.

"They're coming in!"

"Dragon Warrior and Thunder Magic Armor!"

"Damn it, the Gulf Territory has indeed colluded with the El Elves!"

"They blocked the intersection for support, and other reinforcements couldn't get in."

"Stop spreading out, everyone retreat to the back."

"Gather, the commander has given the order!"

Aware of the danger, the Cole Elf Commander immediately summoned the combatants in the Lord's Mansion and gathered them all in the warehouse of the control center.

You can throw it elsewhere.

Only here there is no room for error.

The Cole Elf warriors, who were thinking a lot, were holding various weapons and staring at the closed steel door.

They hid behind various bunkers and prepared to fight an arduous defensive battle.

There are also surviving battle mages, secretly hiding in corners, ready to release deadly spells at any time.

Ten steel golems blocked the door.

That's the only way in.

Unfortunately, the Cole Elf Commander's defense was miscalculated.

There was a violent hammering sound from the walls and top around the control center, which was obviously violently impacted and shaken.

Steel gates are difficult to destroy.

Walls are much easier!

Realizing that something was wrong, the Cole Elf Commander broke out in a cold sweat and immediately ordered the steel puppet to rush over from the door.

Unfortunately, it's too late!

Boom!

After the violent explosion, the walls and roof burst into violent flames.

Hidden behind the fire, there is also a deadly shock wave.

Fixed-point blast bombs from the Gulf Territory!

Specially used to deal with enemies in warehouses or narrow areas!

Boom!

The concussions and shock waves severely impacted the ears of almost all Cole elves.

My vision started to blur, I couldn't hear anything at all in my right ear, and my left ear was also buzzing.

His body twitched uncontrollably, and warm liquid flowed from his ears and nostrils.

The Cole Elf Commander struggled to stand up, stared at the unbroken magic shield in disbelief, and murmured to himself:

"There is no magic fluctuation at all? This is impossible!"

"Isn't this a spell? What exactly is it?"

This is science and technology!

Bang! Bang! Bang!

Tall and burly figures jumped down from above.

As soon as they landed, they struck hard at the Cole Elf who fell to the ground.

On the contrary, the ten steel golems were not greatly affected and immediately launched a counterattack.

Unfortunately, they were unable to defeat four hands with two fists, and were quickly overwhelmed by the dragon warriors who jumped down, and were demolished in a burst of fire and explosions.

Snap!

Click!

The fierce and short sound of battle made the Cole Elf Commander raise the staff in his hand.

Bang!

A bright silver fist, with violent thunder, hit the shield.

Just once!

The double-layer magic shield was smashed through, holding down the staff of the Cole Elf Commander.

Zhila!

The violent thunder penetrated his body, and the Cole Elf Commander twitched all over, with incredible panic and fear in his eyes.

Because Matthew, who had turned on the transparency function of the combat auxiliary helmet, was looking at her with a smile!

Although the Cole Elf Commander did not know that "if he sees the other party's true face, he will be silenced".

But she also knew it.

If Matthew dared to show up, it meant that she would no longer be able to live and tell this situation.

The Elf Commander of Kor is not afraid of death!

She was just worried about the purpose of Matthew's painstaking attack!

Moreover, she couldn't believe it.

These days, he was supposed to be transforming the Dragon Warrior in the Bay Lord. Yesterday, Matthew was patrolling the Krypton Gold Fortress in the Dark Forest.

How it suddenly appeared in the Rocky Mountains!

You must know that even a legendary professional cannot eliminate the impact and damage caused to the body by continuous long-distance space teleportation in a short time.

The more this happened, the more scared she became. Matthew must have big plans!

There must be enough benefits here to attract Matthew's arrival.

The Cole Elf Commander definitely doesn’t think it’s him!

With her extraordinary talent, she saw the pale golden light emanating from Matthew's eyes.

Divine creature!

He possesses divine power and has taken control of divine existence!

The term "Heaven's Proud One" can no longer describe this kind of existence.

According to the information learned by the Cole Elf Commander, it is extremely difficult to become a divine creature.

Matthew either killed a divine creature and successfully absorbed and mastered divine power or divinity.

Or, he is a favored person trusted by some god.

But no matter which identity he is, it proves that Matthew is completely unlike what is recorded in Cole's elf information.

Just a super-level arcanist who seems to have just broken through!

The data update a few days ago also showed that Matthew is learning various high-level spells!

This is nonsense!

After being able to withstand divine power and divinity, and control and absorb it, Matthew has at least reached the peak of super level.

Maybe the purpose of Matthew's troublesome trip here is to break through and enter the legend!

Matthew is an Arcanist!

Once you successfully enter the legend, you will become a terrifying and threatening Grand Arcanist!

The indescribable panic left the painful Elf Commander Cole speechless.

She didn't know why her mind was spinning so fast because of the surging thunder.

This gave her a little excitement, and it was also the "thing" Matthew wanted.

Without speaking, Matthew just dragged her body to the shiny control center.

The teleportation circle emitting dazzling light next to it is requesting the teleportation signal to be connected.

Once the signal docking is completed here.

The other side of the teleportation array is very likely to use a super teleportation device.

Maybe in the next second, a large number of powerful elite troops will be delivered here.

Matthew didn't take action.

Aini next to her quickly destroyed the teleportation circle.

The light of the teleportation circle was extinguished.

It also caused the other Cole Elf warriors who were struggling to support themselves to fall into deep despair.

Soon, calm returned here.

Matthew wasted no time and slowly raised the wide-eyed Cole Elf Commander.

His casual gaze fell on the control center behind her, and he said in a slow tone:

"Dear Ms. Quinn-Avalon, please forgive us for our presumptuous visit."

"I hope you can hand over the control key and give me the authority of the control center."

Quinn's eyes widened, and the unspeakable stinging pain made her completely unable to use her magic power.

But before she could speak, a scene appeared that made her feel extremely panicked.

Standing next to Matthew, Paris, who had been motionless, continued Matthew's words:

"Thanks to Mr. Quinn for your help, we already know the password."

Before Quinn could react, she was dragged to the front of the control center by Matthew.

Her entire head was pressed against the control center.

Emerald green light swept across Quinn's head.

To Quinn's disbelief, the detection light completely failed to detect Matthew who was holding her.

After she successfully completed the inspection process, the control center began to move to the next step.

Such a strange situation made Quinn feel completely terrified.

She could only watch the password input on the control center, her eyes trembling.

She knew Matthew's true purpose!

It must be to obtain the true treasure of the Cole Elf Kingdom - the Mystery Lock Core!

Once you master the core of the Mystery Lock, you can control the Mystery Lock that protects the entire fortress!

Mysterious lock!

One of the most important magical technologies in the Elf Kingdom of Cole!

It is a small magic net.

Possessing nearly infinite energy.

It can extract a steady stream of energy from the depths of the magic network and supply it to the area covered by the mystery lock.

In this area, manufactured magic equipment, props, and all items that require magic charging can be continuously replenished.

Cole Elves can do this this way.

Achieve smooth use of magic.

Achieve special effects such as permanent enchantment.

Although these permanent enchanting devices will lose their effect once they leave the control area of ​​the Mystery Lock.

The cities and fortresses controlled by the Cole Elf Kingdom will all have the same mythical locks.

This means that they can produce various enchanted weapons and equipment with very few resources.

There is almost no production cost, almost free of charge!

This shows the huge production potential of Cole Elf!

As for these production potentials, why have they not been developed?

The Cole Elf Councilors naturally knew what was going on.

In addition to its application in life and production, the myth lock is also used in many aspects.

Another major function of the Mystery Lock is to strengthen the defense of cities and fortresses.

In the area where the Mystery Lock is in effect, no spellcaster without "permission" can release any spells in this area.

Even the effects of magic equipment and props will be greatly affected.

Moreover, the lock can also control various situations passing through the detection area.

The function of the Mystery Lock does not stop there.

It can also greatly enhance the combat effectiveness of "friendly" spellcasters.

Helping it achieve is similar to the increase in combat effectiveness achieved by the Grand Arcanist with the blessing of the Floating City.

Of course, due to the fixed nature of the Mystery Lock and the surrounding magic network, it cannot move freely like the floating city, nor can it travel to other demiplanes like the former.

It is equivalent to giving Cole Elf full map + control + all-round spell amplification!

It can be said that as long as it is in the area controlled by the mystery lock.

Cole Elves can use very few troops to create a highly defensive combat area and achieve almost invincible control.

It is precisely because of the strength of the Mystic Lock that no other force can take away the area controlled by the Cole Elves.

They could only watch as the Cole elves grew stronger and occupied more and more territory.

It is one of the sources of power that has made the Elf Kingdom of Cole stronger and stronger over the years.

Quinn wasn't worried about Matthew controlling a Mystic Core.

Even with such a core, the Gulf Territory can create a large area controlled by the Mystery Lock.

If that's all, that's all Matthew can do!

But Quinn clearly remembered the forces behind the Gulf Territory.

It’s not just the Grand Arcanist of Knonorman!

It is also very likely that he is the actual controller of the Netheril Empire - the Grand Arcanist Iolum!

Otherwise, the Cole Elf Kingdom would be unimaginable.

The Gulf Territory possesses so many special, powerful, and technically kept magical equipment and weapons.

Moreover, at this critical time point, the technology for making these weapons was also released.

There must be a deep meaning in this!

Quinn's mind was running rapidly as he stared at the control center that was cracked layer by layer. While he was a little panicked, he suddenly realized something.

The Gulf Territory's previous series of big moves may have been to attract the attention of the Cole Elf Kingdom!

Now, the Gulf Territory lets the underground invade.

Throwing the Canterlot Mountains into turmoil.

Let the El Elves attack.

On the surface, it was to take revenge on the Cole Elf Kingdom and "prepare" for the Gulf Territory to develop the Dark Forest.

In fact, all of this is to cover Matthew's arrival.

Quinn even suspected that the Gulf Territory existed just for this moment.

Looking at the control center held by Matthew, Quinn's eyes showed a little despair.

"It's over. The secret of Misuo may not be kept!"

If Matthew knew all the thoughts in Quinn's mind, he would have to admire silently:

"The power of brain supplementation is so powerful, and the effect of "electrotherapy" is so unrestrained!"

Quinn watched helplessly as the El Elf Dragon Warriors destroyed the control center and planted alchemy bombs everywhere.

She took it for granted that they did this to cover up the truth of the matter and quietly conceal the secret of the lost control core.

Quinn could only pray silently in his heart.

She hoped that the Shadow Council, which she usually hated very much, would come here to check carefully out of caution and boredom towards her.

Maybe there is a slight chance to find traces of Matthew's arrival.

She hopes that her "death" will reveal more secrets about Matthew and the Gulf Territory.

Quinn was about to "take a closer look" when his vision suddenly went dark and he soon lost consciousness.

Paris shook his head regretfully, the time was too short.

He didn't "see" more secrets and clues.

But just when he was about to "deal with" Quinn.

Matthew, who was halfway there, suddenly stopped.

The choice coming from the power of fate appeared in front of him very actively.

This is a very rare situation!

"Ding, capture Quinn, fate -4, kill Quinn, fate -4."

Two completely different choices, but with almost the same "consequences".

Matthew stared at Quinn's unconscious face, and took her in under the surprised gazes of Paris and Ani.

Matthew said nothing, and neither did Paris or Aine.

They left here quickly, and the first wave of explosions turned the place into a pile of ruins.

They led the soldiers along the road they came from, quickly retreated, and entered the tunnel that almost dug through the mountain.

Boom!

Violent shocks came from above, and the faces of all the retreating warriors showed unspeakable joy and joy.

They completed the task successfully and were very angry.

They teleported away one after another. Matthew just glanced at Paris lightly and said in a calm tone:

"The revenge of the Cole Elf Kingdom will come soon. If nothing else happens, it will be the forces in the El Elf that take action."

The joy that just appeared on his face immediately disappeared without a trace. Paris nodded silently without doubting Matthew's words.

After going back, Paris will have to arrange it well.

Matthew and Aini stepped onto another teleportation array.

As soon as they left, the teleportation array was destroyed.

They entered a stronghold in the Rocky Mountains and teleported again quietly.

After doing this several times, they returned to the Krypton Gold Fortress.

Aini said nothing, but her eyes were full of joy and expectation.

She knew that Matthew's harvest this time would definitely be beyond imagination!
