Section 3059 Grazing
Stopp's words made Witch Sharon frown slightly.
As a space wizard, she knew very well that if it was just an ordinary space fluctuation, no one would notice it... Even if it was discovered by other wizards, in order to avoid conflicts, the wizard would not deliberately come looking for it.
But this time it is not an ordinary space fluctuation.
This space shuttle not only has her power, but also Ax's power. Her power doesn't attract too many people's attention, but after incorporating Ax's power, it's different.
"If people from Guman King's Capital discover what's going on here, will anyone come over to check on the situation?" Witch Sharon asked, "Should we leave now, or should we leave after solving Akers' legacy?"
Stopp glanced at Akers who was lying on the ground gasping for breath, and said thoughtfully: "You check Akers' physical condition first, and then I will contact Paganini."
Witch Sharon nodded and watched Stoop close her eyes before lowering her head and starting to check Akers' condition.
The more she checked, the more Sharon frowned.
Akers's physical condition is not a big problem, but his mental state is a bit bad...
About half a minute later, Stoppe opened his eyes: "How is Akers's condition? Is the backlash serious?"
Witch Sharon: "The physical symptoms are normal. Just rest for a while. However, his mental state is not very good, and I can't delve into his spiritual sea."
Witch Sharon pinched her eyebrows: "Based on the past situation, something is wrong... Are you sure he didn't graze other energies over there in the arena?"
Stoop shook his head: "No."
Witch Sharon: "That's strange. Did he herd some unknown energy when he was acting alone?"
Stoop sneered: "Is this the first day you met him? Do you think he will herd unknown energy inexplicably?"
Although Stoop's ridicule made Sharon Witch feel a little embarrassed, she had to admit that Stoop's words were right. They had known Akers for many years and naturally understood his style very well.
When Akers was young, he once unintentionally herded the energy of an unknown type of succubus. As a result, he suffered a great loss and his personality even changed.
Later, after they broke the cold spire of the evil witch in the high castle, they learned from the secret left by the evil witch that the unknown type of succubus was the genus of Pan, and the energy it cast was mixed. With a hint of Pan's power.
And Pan is the ancient being of the abyss. The evil witch has no record of how powerful he is, but the title Ancient One is enough to explain his high status.
Even if it was only tens of thousands or hundreds of thousands of Pan's power, Akers suffered a huge loss, which was difficult to heal after so many years. With the past of Pan's power in sight, it is impossible for Akers to graze unknown energy at will.
"Then if Akers has not herded unknown energy, then his current mental abnormality can only be caused by the power of illusion that he had herded before." Witch Sharon looked at Stoop: "But, the power of illusion alone should It won’t have such a strong mental impact.”
At this point, Witch Sharon paused for a moment and said in a hesitant tone: "Unless the power of illusion cast by the wizard named Jon contains some unknown and special energy."
"Speaking of which, when I was trapped in that illusion before, I vaguely felt that something was wrong with that illusion, but I couldn't tell what was wrong. The only thing that is certain is that if I didn't rely on Aix's banishment, I would be able to It should be difficult to break through that illusion...could it really be a problem with illusion?"
As for Sharon's witch guess, Stoop didn't know whether it was correct, because he had no in-depth contact with the illusion. When they arrived at the catacomb arena, Akers immediately went to banish the illusion. At that time, he completely stood aside and watched without studying it carefully.
After pondering for a moment, Stoop said: "Can it awaken Ax's consciousness?"
Witch Sharon nodded: "It should be possible, but even if Akers is awakened, there will be no problem with his own strength alone."
Stoop: "I understand. Wake him up first, ask him what happened, and then make plans."
Sharon Witch: "Okay."
Just as Witch Sharon was about to awaken Ax's consciousness, she suddenly thought of something: "By the way, what did Paganini say?"
Stoop: "There's good news and there's bad news. Which one do you want to hear first?"
Witch Sharon stopped what she was doing, raised her head and looked at Stopp: "Are you planning to use me as an object to satisfy your inner pleasure?"
Stop said calmly: "I'm not interested in you."
Witch Sharon narrowed her eyes. She didn't feel much about Stoop's somewhat "sarcastic" words. Instead, she breathed a sigh of relief: "Then I'll be relieved..."
After a pause, Witch Sharon waved her hand: "Let me tell you the bad news first."
Stoop: "The bad news is that someone in King Guman's capital has indeed discovered the spatial fluctuations here, and has reported it to King Guman."
King Guman was involved, which made Witch Sharon's face change slightly. Although they have not been in the Southern Region for a long time, they already know a lot about the affairs of the Guman Kingdom.
In the near future, the Guman Kingdom will inevitably become a major chaos in the Southern Region.
It was also because they knew there would be chaos here that they chose to stay in the Guman Kingdom... Only a place of chaos was their paradise.
But choice is choice, and this does not mean that they are willing to be directly involved in the center of the whirlpool.
At least, not yet.
Sharon Witch: "Where's the good news?"
Stoop: "The good news is...King Guman didn't pay attention to this report and only sent a team of guards over."
Witch Sharon breathed a sigh of relief when she heard that it was just the royal guards. As far as she knew, among the guards of the Guman royal family, only one was a formal wizard and stayed with King Guman all year round. The others were apprentices at most.
However, just in case, Witch Sharon still asked: "The captain of the Guards is not here, is he?"
The Captain of the Guards is the only official wizard.
Stoop: "Didn't come."
Witch Sharon was completely relieved. As long as the captain of the guard didn't come, the apprentice would basically be sent away.
However, Witch Sharon was not happy too early, and Stoop added: "Although the guard captain did not come, according to Paganini, among the guards who came this time, there were spies planted by other camps. "
"Spy? What do you mean?" Witch Sharon looked at Stopp in confusion.
Stoop shrugged: "That's what it means."
According to the current structure of the Guman Kingdom, it is roughly divided into three major camps, namely the local camp headed by the Guman royal family, the foreign wizard organization camp headed by the Frost Moon Alliance, and the extremist sect camp that eradicates dissidents.
Since there are spies from other camps in the Guards, they can only be planted by major wizard organizations or extreme sects.
Stoop: "Paganini was not able to find out who the spy was, nor was he able to confirm which camp he belonged to."
This is actually quite normal, because Paganini's investigation relied on prophecies made by others. As for spies in the wizarding world, if there is a big backer behind them, they will definitely take measures to counter the prophecy or interfere with the prophecy.
Paganini was already very powerful if he could detect the presence of a spy.
Witch Sharon: "It's impossible to determine who it is, and it's impossible to determine the camp...that is to say, we need to avoid it?"
Spies must have special channels for transmitting information. It would be bad if their whereabouts were exposed and the information was spread. Moreover, it is okay if the other party is a spy planted by a wizard organization, but if it is a spy of an extreme sect, it will be troublesome.
Extreme sects are favored by the will of the world, and if they are not careful, they may be exposed.
Stop thought for a while and said, "No need. If it does come, just trap it. Moreover, at their speed, it is estimated that they will not be able to reach here in a short time."
Witch Sharon thought it was right. This place was more than a hundred miles away from the capital, and the other party was just a group of apprentices. The time spent on the road alone was very long.
Maybe by the time someone comes, they will have left here long ago. So, there is no need to worry too much.
Thinking of this, Witch Sharon safely turned her attention to Akers.
More than anything else, waking up Akers was more important.
After about three minutes, Akers regained consciousness. However, this did not mean that his pain was relieved. On the contrary, the mental pain became more obvious after he regained consciousness.
After Akers opened his eyes, his face became paler, and beads of sweat continued to seep out from his forehead and temples.
It looked like he was experiencing the most painful thing in the world.
And this is indeed the case.
"I feel like the energy being grazed is connected to something huge and indescribable. It is constantly expanding in my space-time condenser... I feel that the space-time condenser is about to be unable to hold it. , it will explode!"
Akers broke into a cold sweat and quickly expressed his current feelings.
This is completely different from when he herded Pan's power.
Pan's power was like a ghastly dull knife, constantly torturing him, slowly changing everything about him in the inches of time.
But this time, it was no longer a dull knife, but a sharp knife, inserted straight into his head, submerged into his brain, and constantly stirring, as if he would die from it in the next second.
Witch Sharon originally thought she had just a mental problem. She never expected that the pain Akers suffered would be so intense. Even in Akers' description, there was a premonition of "brain exploding and consciousness dying." .
This is even more terrifying than Pan's power back then.
Moreover, it came in a hurry and in a hurry.
"What kind of energy is it?" Witch Sharon asked anxiously.
"Illusion, illusion...the illusion just now!" Akers gasped and said in a difficult voice.
"Is it really an illusion?" Sorrow flashed with surprise in Witch Sharon's eyes: "Why does illusion have such an impact? So what's so strange about the illusion?"
Akers was unable to answer him at this time, or in other words, at this moment, he was unable to think about too in-depth questions.
Witch Sharon could only look at Stoop.
However, Stopp was even more confused than Witch Sharon. He had an impression of the wizard who cast the illusion, but he had no idea about his illusion.
Moreover, what Stoop was thinking about at this time was not about the illusion, but about Paganini.
"When I contacted Paganini just now, he did not warn Akers about the situation, which is very wrong."
Paganini is not a prophetic wizard. His "prophetic" abilities are actually closely related to Aix. After all, Paganini was accompanied by the "half" of Akers.
As a "half body", if he noticed something was wrong with Akers, he would definitely ask Paganini to remind them. But Paganini did not say anything about Akers' situation, which was obviously a problem.
Either this special energy has exceeded the predicted level; or Akers' half body has also been shielded...or, both.
Thinking of this, Angel's figure appeared in Stoop's mind.
He had vaguely felt that Witch Sharon's backlash in the Paradise might be related to this wizard. Now, when it was discovered that his illusions were also affecting Akers, it made Stoop care about Angel even more.
Why he would...is not in the set script.
Counter prophecy? No, counter-prophecy is difficult to lock at best, but it can certainly be detected.
Just like this time, Paganini knew that there was a spy in the Guards, but who the spy was could not be determined.
Similarly, if Angel has counter-prophecy ability, at most he will not be included in the script, but he will definitely be known in advance.
But the reality is that Paganini does not know Angel, and he has no idea that Angel will destroy the space seal of Paradise. He is an exception, a variable.
His ability seems to have inherited this "variability".
It could not be noticed by Paganini. Only when they saw it in person would they know what happened to Akers; and this was not included in Paganini's "script" at all.
"A passer-by outside the script?" Stoop thought secretly, with an inexplicable flash of excitement in his eyes.
While Stoop was doubting Angel's identity, Witch Sharon kept asking about Akers' situation, trying to find a way to help Akers.
Seeing Ax's painful look, Witch Sharon suddenly thought of a situation he mentioned before.
"We seem to have entered into a misunderstanding... The reason why Pan's power was grazed in the first place, and Akers ended up bearing all the consequences, is because Pan's power is very insidious, and it was integrated into Akers' spiritual sea to hide it. There is no way to expel it. But this time, the power of fantasy is not hiding. Its purpose is to expand and destroy the spiritual sea. In this case, it can completely break the space-time barrier and release it!"
"If you can't break it internally, then break it externally!"
Witch Sharon still remembered that the illusion cast by Angel was stable under the external environment. Although I don’t know why it started to become unstable after going to the spiritual sea in Aix... But if I can return it to the external environment, will it become stable again?
As long as they can stabilize themselves and find ways to slowly break through the illusion, they will definitely be able to unravel the connection between Ax and the illusion!
