Chapter 3718 Trapped
Chapter 3718 Trapped
Charlene gently comforted her, saying, "We might as well try to start with observable dimensions such as the energy flow trajectory and the rune resonance frequency to find its operating rules or possible weaknesses, and proceed step by step. I believe there will always be a breakthrough."
"Okay, let's try again."
Charlene looked at the alchemists who were at a loss and gently rubbed her temples.
I had long anticipated that this mission would not be so simple.
Her initial plan for this trip was simply to find the Sealed Abyss and then try to copy the surface of the alchemical magic circle there to take back and study it carefully.
Unexpectedly, the magic circle's defense mechanism was triggered during the process, causing the seal to be abnormally activated. The external spatial currents were greatly disturbed by the alchemical magic circle, and a spatial defense barrier was formed inside, completely blocking their way out.
They were completely trapped.
The only good news was that after trying it, she found that the game Tower of Black Mist was still usable.
She tried it.
It's not difficult to get out using the power of the Black Mist Game, but the power of the Black Mist Tower needs time to accumulate, and it will take at least half a month before we can escape.
Half a month...
It's been too long for her!
Charlene lowered her head, gathered her thoughts, and continued to observe the magic circle's structural diagram.
Despite her anxiety, she couldn't panic or lose her composure.
Charlene stared at the hand-drawn diagram of the magic circle for more than half an hour, repeatedly overturning and rebuilding her thoughts, but still couldn't find a starting point.
Not far away, Aaron led a few people on a patrol around the inside of the sealed barrier. Fana and several Black Fortress players huddled together, chatting quietly. All of them looked tired and depressed.
"Fana, Miss hasn't rested for the past five days. Why don't you go and try to persuade her?"
Fana glanced at Sharon, who was still deep in thought in front of the alchemy magic circle, and a bitter smile appeared on her lips.
She wanted to say something encouraging to Charlene, but every time she went over, the words felt empty.
Fana shook her head gently, a sense of powerlessness rising in her heart.
She was well aware of the vast gap between them and Charlene.
Everyone has done all they can.
But it really couldn't help Charlene.
The key is that ancient magic circle.
Even with Charlene's expertise in alchemical magic circles, she couldn't figure it out, let alone them.
Suddenly, an idea popped into Fana's mind.
If only that guy were here.
Fang Heng.
Fana recalled her few interactions with Fang Heng.
Fang Heng is very strong and has a deep understanding of alchemy.
It seems that with him around, no matter how outrageous the situation, he can always find a solution.
Although sometimes the methods he uses to break the deadlock seem outrageous and make people worry for him.
Fana remembered that when Shalin mentioned Fang Heng last time, her tone unusually carried a hint of agreement.
Fana couldn't help but look up and glance at Charlene's tired profile.
If Fang Heng were here...
At least Charlene doesn't have to carry such a heavy burden alone.
"boom."
Suddenly, an energy fluctuation came from outside the sealing barrier.
Charlene suddenly stood up, and Fana and the others also stood up alertly at the same time, looking warily in the direction from which the barrier was moving.
"what's the situation?"
"alert!"
Through the semi-transparent sealing barrier, Charlene could vaguely see several figures moving around outside the barrier.
One of the figures made her pupils shrink sharply.
Fang Heng?!
It's him!
Charlene thought she was seeing things at first glance.
call out!
Charlene flashed and quickly arrived inside the sealing barrier. Through the barrier, she focused her gaze on the familiar figure outside.
That's right!
It was indeed Fang Heng.
But how did he end up in the deep sea abyss?
Upon closer inspection, several familiar figures could be seen beside Fang Heng.
Victor!
They are sea creatures!
So Fang Heng came to find him?
Charlene reacted quickly. After her initial shock, she immediately crossed her arms, shook her head repeatedly at Fang Heng and the others outside, pointed at the barrier, and then made a forceful pushing motion.
"Don't come in!"
Outside the barrier.
Fang Heng and his group passed through the area where the giant sea monsters gathered, and with the guidance of the scales in Victor's hand, they quickly found the large spatial energy barrier at the bottom of the sea abyss.
After approaching the barrier, Fang Heng saw Shalin trapped inside from the outside and tried to make a sound to attract the attention of Shalin and the others inside the barrier.
Fang Heng felt relieved to see that Sha Lin was safe and sound.
Charlene looked only a little tired, but was in pretty good condition.
Unfortunately, the outer space barrier blocked sound and perception.
Fang Heng couldn't hear what the people inside were saying, but judging from Shalin's reaction and gestures, she was probably warning him not to try to force his way through the barrier.
"Phew, it seems we're pretty lucky. The spatial barrier doesn't show any signs of shattering and should hold for a long time. Their safety shouldn't be a problem for now."
Viktor examined the spatial sealing barrier ahead and breathed a sigh of relief.
“I led a rescue team here to check before. The structure of the defensive barrier is more for defending the inside, and its ability to defend the outside is not strong. If we use external force to break it from the outside, there is still a chance, but…”
Viktor's tone shifted, and he hesitated again, saying, "But right now the spatial barrier is in a relatively stable structure. I'm worried that taking action rashly might cause chaos in the spatial barrier, and then the defensive barrier might shatter directly, tearing the people trapped inside apart with the spatial turbulence, making the situation even worse."
"Um……"
Fang Heng gave a soft "hmm" and focused his attention on the sealing barrier.
The outer layer of the barrier is visibly unstable, with its surface covered with constantly surging spatial cracks that sometimes tear and sometimes heal, giving the impression that it could break at any moment.
In contrast, its inner structure is exceptionally stable.
Just as Fang Heng was about to continue observing, he suddenly caught sight of two completed magic arrays inside the barrier out of the corner of his eye.
Huh?
Two crystalline spires, emanating a dark aura, appeared on the magic circle.
The Tower of Black Mist!
Fang Heng's pupils suddenly contracted.
How could the Tower of Black Mist be seen in the Sealed Land of the Abyss?
Blacksburg!?
Fang Heng's gaze instantly focused on Sha Lin.
Unexpectedly, Blackburg also mastered the method of building the Black Mist Tower.
Is it because of the black gem?
How did she obtain the summoning method for the Tower of Black Mist?
Obtained through the black orb?
If there were a Black Mist Tower, Sharon and the others could use its power to escape from the barrier.
However, it seems that Sharon has only summoned two Black Mist Towers so far, and the Black Mist is gathering at a very slow speed.
Is it that she can't summon more, or does she have other plans?
For a moment, several chaotic thoughts arose in Fang Heng's mind.
Let's not think about that right now; the most important thing is to find a way to rescue them.
Fang Heng's right eye spun rapidly, and at the same time, he released his mental energy, carefully probing into the fluctuations of the outer space of the barrier. He gradually went deeper along the constantly spreading and merging cracks and gaps, trying to judge the internal situation of the barrier.
"Mr. Fang Heng, we..."
Fontaine stood quietly to the side, raising her hand to signal Viktor to shut up.
She knew that Fang Heng's mastery of alchemy far surpassed that of anyone else present.
"Don't get in the way, just watch from the side." (End of Chapter)
