Chapter 464 - 356: Entering the Unknown Territory_2
“In that case, the origin of the sudden black stone giants can be explained. They came from inside the barrier!”
At this point, Gregory involuntarily swallowed and hurriedly asked, “The most crucial thing is:
Is it possible that our Mystara City Lord Mansion and the island it sits on didn’t disappear, but were sucked into the barrier?!”
“Yes, that’s what happened.” Scarlett slightly nodded her head, her face full of seriousness, and replied, “I once read about a similar situation in an ancient book.
When the barrier area itself is unstable, the numerous auto-repair magic arrays embedded within, will do this to maintain the balance of time and space.
After all, the City Lord Mansion and the island it sits on are located at the entrance of the barrier area.”
Upon hearing Scarlett’s affirmative answer, the three Defense Army Battalion Commanders of Mystara City couldn’t help but show shock on their faces.
It must be said that this situation was quite bizarre, to the point of being bewildering.
If it wasn’t for the presence of such an important figure accompanied by several knowledgeable powerhouses in front of them, they probably would still be at a loss for the real answer, even if they racked their brains.
“Alright, let’s quickly consider our next steps.”
With a slight clap of his hands, Leo Ray brought the thoughts of the three people back to the present and said, “From the situation of those advanced magic puppets just now, it’s clear that:
The barrier area is likely to be full of dangers. Therefore, the most pressing issue now is to find a way to restore the City Lord Mansion to its original position as soon as possible.”
“You’re right, my lord!”
Hearing this, Gregory immediately nodded and said, “In the current City Lord Mansion, although there are the City Lord, three elders from the Elders Council, Miss Orion Wolfe and Amelia, who just returned, forming six Tier 3 Powerhouses.
As well as two squads of Tier 2 Elite Soldiers from the Royal Guard, the situation remains bleak considering the appearance of those black stone giants.”
Hearing this, everyone’s faces turned serious again.
Especially the three Battalion Commanders of Mystara City, who were even more solemn.
You should know that for over five hundred years since the establishment of Mystara City, this mysterious unknown barrier area had never been discovered.
No one knows what might exist within besides the black stone giants.
“Gideon, Scarlett, what do you think of the possibility I mentioned earlier? To pull the City Lord Mansion out of the barrier area and restore it to its original position?”
First, Leo Ray raised his hand to signal everyone not to panic, and then asked the two of them.
“But then again, Scarlett has made quite a contribution this time. It seems that she can be relied upon when it comes to magic issues.”
While Leo Ray was thinking about this, Scarlett pondered for a moment and her eyes lit up, saying, “My lord, there is indeed such a possibility.
The unknown barrier area is due to its long-term disrepair. In order to maintain the balance of time and space, it has taken these automatic correction measures.
If we can find a way to repair this barrier area,
the automatic correction mechanism of the barrier itself will naturally expel the City Lord Mansion and the island it sits on, which were sucked in.”
“Exactly. In the barrier area, there will always be a specific Formation Eye Area, which is the center of the entire barrier area. A large number of magic arrays exist there.
We just need to find the Formation Eye Area, and everything will be easy.”
On the other side, Gideon played with the shining metal skull necklace that represented the identity of a Dark Healer on his chest, and thoughtfully said, “Even if this is not a human barrier, but one left by another race, it doesn’t matter.
After all, what we need to do is simply infuse magic power back into the worn-out and inactive magic arrays to restore their vitality.
The remaining repair work will be automatically completed by the barrier area.”
“I understand. It seems that no matter what, we must enter the unknown barrier area ourselves.”Hearing this, a curious look appeared on Leo Ray’s face, “I wonder what it’s like inside that barrier?”
“My Lord, please allow us to accompany you!” On the other side, Gregory Mason, Kara, and the other three Defense Army Battalion Commanders stepped forward and clasped their fists.
“At present, Mystara City still needs strong individuals to stay behind and command the Defense Army, in case of unforeseen events.”
At this moment, looking at the unfamiliar Tier 3 powerhouses who had arrived one after another from the nearby street corner, Leo Ray pondered for a moment, “Therefore, the three of you can send a representative to accompany us.”
Saying this, Leo Ray thought for a moment and then quietly said to the three of them, “For now, the situation is not clear.
The fewer people who know about the Barrier Area, the better.
So, including the other powerful figures in the city who may arrive later in the surrounding area, it’s better to let them go back for now.
Also, expand the blockade range here by twice as much and ensure this news is completely sealed off.”
“My Lord speaks wisely, we will arrange it right away!” The three Defense Army Battalion Commanders bowed slightly and immediately went into action.
A short moment later, Kara, acting as the representative, joined their own team.
“It seems that this Commander Kara should be the Defense Army Battalion Commander under Holy Light General Joshua, mentioned by Orion Wolfe before, right?”
Looking at this heroic female powerhouse, who was around thirty years old, Leo Ray couldn’t help but reveal a thoughtful expression, thinking to himself, “After the current situation of the Barrier Area is settled, I must ask in detail about Holy Light General Joshua.”
With this thought, he looked at the calm lake in front of him, and Leo Ray refocused himself, saying to his subordinates, “Alright, let’s not delay any longer, let’s set off now.”
“Yes, my lord!” On the other side, all of Leo Ray’s subordinates clasped their fists and responded in unison.
Under the circumstances of having non-Territory personnel present, they naturally wouldn’t reveal Leo Ray’s Otherworldly Lord identity.
Next, after the surrounding area had been completely cleared.
Leo Ray, standing at the center of the river and the end of the large wooden bridge.
He nodded to Gideon Black and Scarlett beside him, signaling that they could begin breaking the magical protective barrier at the entrance to the Barrier Area.
With Leo Ray’s permission, dark gold and fiery red hexagram magic arrays were immediately unfolded under the feet of Gideon Black and Scarlett, slowly rotating.
At the same time, two completely different tones of incantation sounded.
According to the previous task allocation, one of these two Tier 4 Magic powerhouses was locating the exact position of the entrance to the magical protective barrier, while the other was preparing to break the barrier.
Suddenly, as the incantation became more and more high-pitched, the magic arrays beneath their feet began to rotate even faster.
Meanwhile, Taylor, who was standing in front of Leo Ray, was also ready to launch an energy barrier for defense at any time in case of unexpected events.
After a moment, a crisp sound like glass shattering was heard.
The calm lake in front of them once again began to churn violently.
In the blink of an eye, a several-meter-long spatial crack appeared in mid-air, tearing itself open and expanding continuously.
In the midst of lightning and fire, a large black chaos vortex like a movie screen quickly formed in the midst of the surrounding strong gusts of wind, making the surrounding scenery seem twisted as well.
For a moment, the entire scene was tumultuous and stunning, leaving Kara and Bianca White, who were watching from the sidelines, dumbfounded.
Of course, for Leo Ray, who had already experienced the Half-Elf Barrier, this scene was not that shocking.
“Alright, let’s move on and take a good look at what kind of scenery lies within this Barrier Area.”
After nodding to his subordinates, Leo Ray took a step forward, following Taylor, Scarlett, and Gideon Black into this ancient unknown land.
