Chapter 2484 The Puzzle of the Sphinx
At this time, the sphinx sculpture on the pyramid in the distance suddenly trembled, and the rumbling roar aroused Joan's alertness.
He thought it was a decorative sculpture before, but after knowing the inside story of the "Dimensional Killing Field", it is not difficult to guess that the sphinx disguised as a stone sculpture is probably the incarnation of Dinin, the mythical and legendary holy beast "Sphinx" Max", immediately open "Advanced Internal Vision" to check.

After quickly reading the Sphinx's investigation report, the physical attributes, spellcasting level, and mythological rank did not exceed Joan's estimation, but the dense row of special abilities, especially various immunity, made him feel scalp hair. Ma, secretly complaining!
Toxins, diseases, paralysis, sleep, sound waves, acid erosion, curses and instant death, Sphinx does not eat, what's more, he is also immune to attribute damage, malicious deformation and all negative mind effects, which means "myth replacement Tactics suitable for dealing with the big man, such as "dimensionality reduction force field" and confusion control magic, were ineffective against him, forcing Joan to adopt simpler and more brutal methods to fight against this legendary holy beast!
"Súré!"
Inspired by a "power of myth", Joan cast the "myth whirlwind technique", and with a wave of his hand, he summoned a tornado storm.
The howling hurricane swept across the yellow sand and soared into the sky, quickly wrapping the pyramid occupied by the Sphinx.
Sphinx has resistance to fire and electricity attacks with up to 10 energy levels, and Joan's ice spells can't attack enemies far away from two miles away. On balance, "Mythical Whirlwind" It is the most suitable means of defending against the enemy. Not only can it continue to cause damage to the Sphinx, but the storm can also curb the opponent's flying ability and limit its mobility.
Joan made what he thought was a reasonable decision, but from the first second of the confrontation between the two sides, there was a strange atmosphere that made him deeply disturbed.
The moment the "Mythical Whirlwind Technique" took effect, Joan felt inexplicably in a trance, as if drowsiness was coming, and his mind became muddled.
The young mage's heart trembled, he quickly gathered himself together, looked up again after regaining consciousness, the mythical whirlwind was still circling and whistling around the pyramid, but the Sphinx had already left the top of the tower, he did not know when he would get rid of the shackles of the storm, and disappeared without warning In the depths of the vast desert.
What's happening here? !
Joan recalled the weird experience just now, as if the world he was in was cut out for a short period of time, causing a fault in his memory. After regaining consciousness, he couldn't remember how the Sphinx escaped from the shackles of the whirlwind.
Could it be that the Sphinx just activated some kind of special ability that can delete memories or affect the flow of time?
The first thing Joan thought of was "swift burst".
If Dinin had chosen a magical domain such as "time" or "trickery", it would not be difficult for him to cast the 9th-level spell "time stillness" with his priest level.
"Hehehehe..."
Joan suddenly heard a familiar laughter behind him, and with the help of the strange eyes behind his neck, he could see the holy beast Sphinx coming out of a soft sand dune without turning around, spread its wide wings, and shake off the sand grains on its body , a malicious smile appeared on his face.
"Compared to 'hide and seek', I prefer guessing games, smart young man, are you good at guessing?"
Guess your size!
It's uncomfortable to be teased by others. Qiao An secretly scolded the monster for pretending to be a ghost, ignored his provocation, and made a spell-casting gesture to bless the 7th-level spell "Arcane Surge" that has passed the "Advanced Spell Delay" supermagic. Next For more than half an hour, two spells can be released in each round.
The Sphinx did not stop Joan from casting spells, with a secretive smile still on his face, and quietly activated a special ability that Joan hadn't detected just now, generating ten magic emblems out of thin air, surrounding his head to form a A set of rings.
Joan proficiently blesses himself with various protective spells, and at the same time observes the magic emblems floating around the Sphinx. He has learned some of them, and although he has not mastered a few, it is not difficult to guess with a little identification. Function.
Among the ten magic emblems, the lowest level has 5 rings, namely "Pain Emblem" and "Persuasion Emblem", then 6 rings "Fear Emblem" and "Sleeping Emblem", and 7 rings "Weakness Emblem" and "Shocking Emblem" , 8-ring "Death Emblem" and "Madness Emblem", and 9-ring "Petrochemical Emblem" and "Disintegration Emblem".
"The 'guessing game' begins now...good luck."
The Sphinx inspired a "mythical power", and ten magic emblems formed a circle, which began to accelerate and circle in a clockwise direction, like a roulette wheel in a casino.
Joan's gaze was involuntarily attracted by the hovering magic emblem, and he couldn't help but guess, when the roulette stopped, which emblem would be activated and attack him?
"Will it be the 'Petrochemical Emblem'?"
Visually observing the relative positions of the ten emblems and the rotation speed of the roulette, Qiao An estimated the result with the highest probability, and quickly took a "protective petrification" on himself.
It's a pity that the roulette slowly rolled forward at the moment when he predicted it would stop, and the "Petrochemical Emblem" passed before his eyes, and was replaced by the suddenly glowing "Emblem of Pain".
"Unfortunately, you guessed wrong!"
From the opposite side came the gloating laughter of the Sphinx.
Swish!
The magic radiance swept over, and Joan had nowhere to dodge. The moment he was swept, he felt severe pain all over his body, and almost passed out.
Gritting his teeth, relying on his strong willpower, he barely survived the severe pain caused by the magic emblem, and found that the set of roulette wheels on the opposite side was spinning again.
What is it this time?
"Should it be the 'Crazy Emblem'?"
The "Topaz Amulet" worn by Joan stabilizes the 8-ring spell "Mind Barrier", which can resist all magic emblems that cause negative mind effects, including "Emblem of Persuasion", "Emblem of Fear", "Emblem of Sleep" and "Emblem of Deterrence" —and "Sign of Madness."
"Sorry, you guessed wrong again!"
The sphinx's grin echoed over the desert.
