Chapter 3050: Substitution Technique
On the other side, although Witch Sharon was shocked, her rationality was not affected.
She knew very well that after the space seal was broken and there was no contract to restrain her, Dox and Angel would definitely attack her. So, when Dox turned into red light and rushed towards her, she responded immediately.
Witch Sharon created a space membrane around her.
This is a third-level trick. Although it is much inferior to the light shield, the fact that she created a defensive membrane almost instantly in a hurry is enough to show how fast Witch Sharon reacted.
In Witch Sharon's mind, the space membrane would definitely not be able to completely block Dox's attack. However, Dox is a prophecy wizard, and his offensive ability should not be too strong... Even if Dox has a strong bloodline technique, he may not be able to exert much strength under the hindrance of the curse.
Therefore, even if the space membrane cannot be the decisive key, it should be no problem to resist Dox's attack for two or three seconds.
The few seconds gained were enough for her to safely put on a light shield.
By then, it would be difficult for Dox to break through her defense.
It was precisely because Witch Sharon had such a step-by-step plan that she was not too afraid of Dox. Compared with Dox, she was more wary of Angel.
As a fellow witch, Witch Sharon knew how powerful the space system was. What's more, Angel was a space wizard with a strong heritage. Facing such an enemy, it was possible to overturn if you were not careful.
Therefore, most of Witch Sharon's attention was on Angel.
But Angel's behavior made her feel puzzled.
He did not seem to release space magic, nor did he use space-related abilities to sneak attack, but instead created a large number of green light patterns full of strange atmosphere.
Witch Sharon had never seen this kind of green light pattern before, and the light pattern and the space gaps released by her around did not produce any energy traction.
The lack of energy commonality means that this green light pattern is not a space-related ability.
If it's not a space ability, then what is it? Moreover, why did Angel spread these green lines around the space gate?
Before Witch Sharon could figure out anything, she was forced to interrupt.
Because, Dox's attack arrived.
According to the original plan, Witch Sharon used the membrane to block Dox's attack, and then took the opportunity to cast the light air shield. But the plan could not keep up with the changes. The strength of the space membrane was not as strong as she imagined... or in other words, Dox's attack exceeded the membrane's upper limit.
Not to mention resisting for two or three seconds, even half a second was not resisted.
Dox's fist wrapped in blood and energy just lightly touched the membrane, and the membrane was like an ice cube burned by a raging fire. There was no struggle at all and it melted away instantly.
The sudden accident forced Witch Sharon to change her countermeasures.
She immediately interrupted the energy of condensing the light air shield, and through the talent of "low-cost fast change" inherited from the cheap mentor, she transformed the condensed energy into another trick with less consumption-air curtain.
Dox's fist, which was full of blood and energy, hit the air curtain, just like hitting a curtain woven by air, with a feeling of being unable to exert force.
However, Dox's blood and energy completely exceeded the upper limit of the air curtain. In less than a second, the air curtain was completely shattered.
With the distortion of light and a low cry full of doubt, the surroundings fell into silence again.
Sharon Witch seemed to disappear while the air curtain appeared.
This failure did not disappoint Dox, but made him more excited. He only heard a strange cry, and the blood light covering him suddenly became heavy, and there was a tendency for blood light to radiate.
It was as if Dox suddenly turned into a blood man, and he was also wearing a blood-red halo.
When this blood-colored halo appeared, Sharon Witch felt a sense of crisis. She didn't even have time to analyze what the blood-colored halo was capable of, and she was exposed by the halo effect.
Sharon Witch originally hid behind Dox through light and shadow, hoping to buy time by relying on the blind spot of vision. But this halo directly exposed her position, and Sharon Witch had no choice but to interrupt the spell again and use the substitute technique instead.
The substitute technique, a third-level space trick, can replace the damage suffered by oneself with the space props prepared in advance.
The effect of the substitute technique is undoubtedly very powerful, but as a supermodel's trick, it also has very harsh restrictions: first, it cannot replace death; second, the substitute must be carried close to the body, and the effective time of the substitute is half an hour. If it exceeds half an hour, the substitute needs to be rearranged; third, the effect of continuous substitutes will be gradually weakened, and the injuries suffered will slowly be fed back to the body.
Although the restrictions are large, as long as it is released, you can use the substitute to buy yourself a buffer time.
The substitute set by Sharon Witch is a stone pillar with human face patterns.
So, when Sharon Witch used the substitute technique, her figure disappeared directly, and there was a stone pillar with human face patterns in her original position.
However, as soon as the substitute human-faced stone pillar appeared, it was shattered into pieces by Dox's punch, which made Sharon Witch stunned. If she released it a second later, she would definitely be hit by Dox, and once hit, it would not be a simple injury that could be dealt with.
At this point, how could Witch Sharon not know that she had underestimated her enemy.
This wizard named Dox not only has profound achievements in prophecy, but his research and development of blood is no worse than prophecy.
This is an all-round wizard!
Moreover, Dox can still reach the current speed and strength despite the blood curse, and is even more powerful than most blood wizards.
The Yaki who stepped onto the ring before was also a blood wizard, but compared to Dox, he was simply dwarfed.
After realizing that she underestimated Dox, Witch Sharon immediately changed her strategy.
She left a little bit of consciousness to monitor Angel to ensure that she could detect the opponent's attack in the first time; and all other subjective consciousness was locked on Dox.
Dox is a big trouble. His blood ability is too strong and must be solved as soon as possible... or restricted.
The mood of the witch Sharon changed quickly. Facing such a powerful and comprehensive wizard like Dox, she did not retreat... Even if she could not deal with Dox, it didn't matter, anyway, her two partners were already here.
At that time, the control would naturally return to her hands.
The witch Sharon, who used the substitution technique, hid again. She has now determined the current goal: to take advantage of the time gained by the substitution technique to find a way to activate the light shield and start the counterattack!
...
At the same time, Angel, who was ignored by the witch Sharon, looked at the battlefield on the other side with burning eyes.
"Found it! Found the clone of Speed Spirit!"
The purpose of Angel coming here was not to fight against the witch Sharon, but to find the clone of Speed Spirit!
Originally, Angel was thinking that he would sneak close to the witch Sharon through Ermi and Speed Spirit, and then go to find the clone of Speed Spirit hidden in the witch Sharon.
But he didn't expect that before he started, he found a clone of Speed Spirit.
——Inside the substitute human-faced stone pillar!
The substitute human-faced stone pillar itself has spatial energy, so after being broken, the internal energy will overflow. That is, at the moment when Dox broke the substitute stone pillar, Angel discovered a faint breeze from the inside of the stone pillar through the perception of Speed Spirit.
This is exactly one of Speed Spirit's clones...
Angel had thought of countless places to hide Speed Spirit's clones before, but he didn't expect that Sharon Witch would hide Speed Spirit's clone in the substitute.
However, if you think about it carefully, it makes sense.
Angel got a lot of spatial knowledge from the Dalmatian, which naturally also includes information about the substitute.
The substitute itself has spatial energy. If Speed Spirit's clone is hidden in the substitute, it is entirely possible. Spatial energy cuts off perception and limits the escape of Speed Spirit's clone.
This is why Angel brought Speed Spirit here, but has not yet sensed the specific whereabouts of Speed Spirit's clone. It was because it was blocked by the space energy of the substitute.
After confirming the location of the Speed Spirit clone, he was both happy and entangled.
He was happy because he found the Speed Spirit clone; he was entangled because there were six Speed Spirit clones trapped in the paradise, and now only one appeared, and the other five breezes were still missing.
If we infer according to the situation of the first breeze, the other breezes are likely to be in the substitute.
In other words, if he wants to get the other five breezes, he must let the witch Sharon release the substitute spell five times in a row.
This is actually a bit difficult.
Angel also knows the limitations of the substitute spell. If the substitute spell is released multiple times in a short period of time, the effect will gradually weaken, and the injury will be fed back to the body. It is impossible for the witch Sharon to use the substitute spell when she knows that the effect of the substitute spell has weakened.
According to Angel's estimation, even if the witch Sharon wants to use the substitute spell, it should be limited to two or three times at most, and it is impossible to use more than that.
And can you get all the Speed Spirit clones in three times? Unless Witch Sharon puts multiple clones of Speed Spirit in the same substitute.
Is this possible?
Angell personally thinks it is unlikely.
He had thought about a question before: Why did Witch Sharon collect clones of Speed Spirit?
Witch Sharon certainly did not collect clones of Speed Spirit just because she discovered Speed Spirit. She must have other ideas, or plots.
The clones of Speed Spirit are wisps of breeze with weak consciousness... What do they look like?
When Angell asked the Sea Eagle Wizard before, he compared the clones of Speed Spirit to "wind elemental elves", but in fact, the clones of Speed Spirit do not look like wind elemental elves.
It is more like the previous step of the wind elemental elves, the beginning of elemental life, or called embryo, larva, primary body... and so on.
There is a certain feedback of consciousness, but it is a fairly pure element.
As long as there is a chance, or more elements are condensed, it is possible to evolve into an elemental elf.
In fact, elemental creatures in nature are very rare. Perhaps Witch Sharon saw the shallow consciousness in the breeze of the Speed Spirit clone, which made her think that it could evolve into an elemental spirit, so she collected the Speed Spirit clone.
If the answer is this, Witch Sharon's goal is to get the elemental spirit, then she will most likely not put these conscious breezes together.
The probability of six breezes evolving together is obviously higher. If they are put together, they are likely to devour each other, reducing the probability of evolution.
Therefore, Witch Sharon's most likely choice is to store the six breezes separately to maximize the benefits.
Thinking about it, one substitute corresponds to one wisp of wind, which may be the truth.
In other words, to get all the avatars of Speed Spirit, the other five substitutes must be broken, which is... too difficult.
It is a bit unrealistic to let Sharon Witch cast five substitutes in a row. So now there is only one other way-
Find where the substitute is?
Substitutes cannot be put into space props, so they must be carried close to the body. However, Sharon Witch is covered by the cloak, and you can't see what's under the cloak at all.
Now, maybe the first thing is to destroy Sharon Witch's cloak?
Although Angel thought so, he didn't really do it. Dox has now turned into a red light that is difficult to capture with the naked eye. The more he fights, the more excited he becomes. If Angel gets involved now, it is very likely to be a hindrance.
So, let's see the situation first.
Moreover, it is not necessary to really fight with Sharon Witch now. In fact, as long as some means are used to force Sharon Witch to use the substitute technique, it will be fine.
Of course, Sharon Witch can still use the Substitute Technique now, but it is hard to say what will happen in the future.
However, there will be other ways later. The current way is to release as many clones of Speed Spirit from the Substitute as possible.
…
After Sharon Witch sneaked in with the Substitute Technique, Dox immediately released the blood halo, trying to use the previous halo effect to force Sharon Witch out.
But Sharon Witch learned to be smart this time.
Before, in order to counterattack conveniently, she used the curtain trick and hid behind Dox, so she was swept away as soon as the blood halo hit.
After a failure, Sharon Witch ran directly to a place a hundred meters away from Dox. Here, she does not have to worry about being swept by the halo, and can also quietly condense the light shield.
Although the light shield may make a noise when it is condensed to the end, attracting Dox's attention. But by then, it is already the completion period of the light shield, and it is almost impossible to be interrupted.
As long as she held the light shield, Sharon Witch was not afraid of a blood cursed Dox.
When Sharon Witch was secretly accumulating strength, she did not notice that the green light patterns lingering on the entire ring, some of which were slowly approaching Dox while jumping.
In fact, Dox himself did not notice it until the green patterns were about to get close to his eyes.
However, Dox did not do anything after discovering it.
He recognized that this was the illusion node released by Angel... Although the aura was different from the normal illusion node, the final effect was similar.
The green pattern merged into Dox's right eye while jumping.
Dox did not feel any discomfort, but only felt that his right eye was slightly moist.
But why did Angel want to merge the green pattern into his eyes?
Dox looked up with doubts... Then he found a series of bold and enlarged green arrows.
Dox blinked and found that only his right eye could see the green arrows, and his left eye could not see anything.
So, these green arrows were specially made by Angel?
Dox looked in the direction of the green arrow, and finally, the green arrow pointed to a corner a hundred meters away.
There was a green humanoid silhouette, and above her head, there was a larger and thicker green arrow pointing at her, as if afraid that Dox could not see it.
