It feels so good to stick to Miss Witch

With this guess in her mind, Aisi became more cautious.

After stepping on the dark silver metal platform, the concentration of magic power in the lake suddenly increased. As an ice witch, Ai Si could vaguely feel the burning sensation coming from the surface of her skin.

You know, she is now in a state of "crown elementalization", which can make her feel scorching hot, and the temperature here may reach more than a thousand degrees.

But strangely, at this high temperature, the lake did not boil, but kept its original shape.

Perhaps, it is the effect of this sealing array?

After observing the eight giant metal pillars, Aisi turned her gaze to the crimson gap no bigger than a palm in the center of the platform.

The extremely rich crimson made Ai Si unable to see the scene behind the crack, but combined with the scene here and the information that Xinghu would only change every Fengyang Festival, she made an inference in her heart.

This giant metal pillar seal formation buried at the bottom of Xinghu Lake may be because it has existed for too long, or because of other reasons. Every year, a "seal gap" will appear from the week before the Fengyang Festival. And the closer it is to the Fengyang Festival, the bigger the "seal gap" will be, and the "seal gap" will not be closed again until the Fengyang Festival passes.

And the abnormality of Xinghu is caused by the magic power leaked from the "seal gap".

Presumably what Roy said, the target of the second prince - the unknown magical item is located behind this "seal gap"!

Chapter 76 Trying

Under the bottom of the lake and above the platform, the crimson gaps shone with a deep luster, like a corner of hell unfolding, which made people feel shuddering.

Aisi came to stand one meter in front of the crimson gap.

It's not that she doesn't want to move forward, but that at this distance, the magical impact brought by every rhythm of the crimson gap is strong enough to affect her "crown elementalization".

Moving forward, she is likely to be forcibly forced out of the "crown elemental" state by the terrifying magic shock.

The magic power gushing from the crimson gap seems to have a particularly strong effect on the intangible state of "elementalization"?

With this thought in her mind, Aisi thought about it, and turned her left index finger from elementalization back to the physical form of flesh and blood.

The lake within the range of the sealing array contains a very high concentration of magic power, but for Aisi, this level of magic power is not enough to erode her body.

After the index finger of her left hand was turned back to the solid flesh and blood, Ai Si could feel that the impact on the fingers was significantly reduced. If the impact force of the "crown elementalization" was 100, then after turning back to the solid flesh and blood, only 20 or so.

Although it is not clear why this is the case, in order to get closer to the crimson gap, Aisi can only withdraw from the "crown elementalization" and turn her whole body into solid flesh and blood.

With more than 100 meters below the surface of the lake and the influence of the sealing circle, even the Golden Knight would not be able to perceive her existence, so there is no need to worry about exposure.

The azure blue magic light shrouded the surface of Aisi's body.

The temperature here is as high as thousands of degrees. If she does not use magic power to protect her, even if her current physical fitness is comparable to gold, she will suffer severe burns. After all, the golden knight is also a human being, and the structure of the human body determines that it is naturally difficult to withstand high temperatures. .

The sudden drop in magic power greatly relieved Aisi's pressure.

She came to the crimson gap and stared carefully.

The edge of the crimson gap presents irregular cracks. This shape makes Aisi's mind instinctively show a picture of an object expanding due to too much pressure in the body, and then creating a crack.

Involuntarily, Ace fell into deep thought.

How can this thing get in there?

How can flesh and blood pass through a hole smaller than a slap?

It can't be done, no matter how you think about it, it can't be done.

It’s fine if it’s in the elemental form, but the problem is that the impact force that the elemental form needs to withstand is too great, and it’s impossible to get close, let alone pass.

After thinking for a while, Ai Si raised her hand, and a blue ice sword took shape in her hand.

She was going to try the "physical opening method" to see if she could pry the button bigger.

She doesn't understand the sealing formation at all, so she doesn't have to find the flaws of the seal at her own risk.

The ice sword was about to be inserted into the crimson gap, but when the two touched, the crimson gap was like a phantom moon in the water, and the ice sword directly penetrated through it without touching anything.

what? !

Ace's pupils shrunk.

Obviously the magic power gushing out from the crimson gap is so real, but the existence of the crimson gap itself is like a mirage, visible but intangible.

Is it the effect of the sealing array?Or is it because of the special environment here?

After trying a few more times and making sure that she couldn't touch the crimson gap, Aisi scattered the ice sword in her hand.

She stood in front of the crimson gap and observed for a long time.

Suddenly, she discovered a miraculous phenomenon.

The size of the crimson crack is gradually expanding as time goes by.

Although the extent of the expansion is not obvious, it may be about 1% in proportion, but it is indeed expanding.

Could it be that after the crimson gap expands to a certain extent, outsiders will be able to pass through?

With this guess in her heart, Ai Si observed for a while, then turned and left.

The information collection is almost done, instead of continuing to waste time here, it is better to take the information back, and everyone discusses the countermeasures together before taking action.

Returning along the same path, Aisi came to the area where the small reddish fish lived before.

At this time, it has been a long time since Aisi left here, and the little red fishes that fled in panic swam back again because of the "disappearance of danger".

Knowing the "vigilance" of these small reddish fish, Ai Si raised her hand to grab them, and froze a large number of these small reddish fish, about 100 of them, before they fled.

There are not many light red fish living here, less than [-] in total. After leaving thirty or forty as "fish species", Ai Si thawed all the frozen light red fish. It became a round ice cube the size of a human head, and he held it in his hand.

Then, she lightened her feet and walked towards the lake. In the process, her body entered a state of "crown elementalization", and the ice puck in her hand was also covered by "crown elementalization". Covered the breath of existence.

On the bank of Star Lake, the two-star golden knight and bloody fortress Robert stood in the shadows. In the dense forest hundreds of meters away from him, there were several faint figures.

However, what the two sides who were on high alert didn't realize was that right under their noses, someone went deep into Xinghu to investigate, and then left in a big way.

After a long time, two of the three shadow crows soaring above the night sky flew away silently, leaving one, staring down with sharp eyes.

……

Lord Blackstone's mansion, in the small courtyard.

Roy, Lilia, and Shanika sat on the stone chair, looking at the "black and white projection" created by the magic of shadows in front of them.

Just looking at it from the perspective of the Shadow Crow, the star lake was completely silent, without any human figure.

Obviously, even a strange shadow creature cannot observe the crown, Ice Witch Ais in the "elemental" form.

The "crown position" of a witch is a very peculiar level.

The knight's extraordinary path is from low to high, namely bronze, silver, and gold. Although there are large gaps between them, overall, they still show a step-by-step increase.

But witches are different, they don't have such a detailed division of strength.

The strength of a witch has a great relationship with the talent and the total amount of magic power when awakening.

A witch with auxiliary talent + low total magic power may struggle to fight a bronze knight.

And a witch with strong talent + high total magic power like the Ice Witch can crush the Silver Peak Knight with a little training.

As for the "crown position", as the first clearly defined realm reached by the witches after awakening, their strength has been greatly improved, far beyond the imagination of others.

When a knight is promoted from the silver rank to the gold rank, the increase in strength is already terrifying, but it is still far inferior to the promotion from the witch to the crown witch.

Therefore, an ordinary golden knight would not be an all-in-one enemy of the "Crown Witch".

In the small courtyard, Roy, who was staring at the black and white projection, seemed to feel something, and turned his head to look to the side.

At the entrance of the small courtyard, the crimson moon was flowing like water, and a beautiful girl in a long purple dress with silver eyes was stepping forward, holding an ice ball exuding hazy ice mist in her hand.

Ice Witch Ais is back.

Chapter 77 Miss Ace, let's go into the room

"Miss Ace, you're back so soon!"

Seeing the cold girl at the entrance of the courtyard, Roy said in surprise.

Beside Roy, Lilia and Shanika also had joy in their eyes.

Both women knew something about the current situation of the Black Stone Territory, so they naturally knew that the key to breaking the current situation was the magical items sealed under the Star Lake.

"Sorry, I couldn't retrieve the magic item."

However, the next words of Ice Witch Aisi poured cold water on Roy and the three of them.

Roy's face was slightly stagnant, but he calmed down quickly, and said in a deep voice, "Miss Ais, can you tell me what's going on under the Star Lake Center?"

"That's exactly what I'm going to tell you." Aisi walked to the stone table where the three of Roy were sitting and sat down, put the hazy ice ball in her hand on the stone table, and then said in a cold voice :

"Around Xinghu Lake, there is a knight whose battle energy fluctuates far stronger than that of the silver peak. It should be a golden knight. There are several silver knights hiding in the distance."

"And under the center of Star Lake, there is a huge sealing formation."

"It consists of eight huge metal columns with a diameter of one meter and a height of nearly 20 meters, and a dark silver metal platform."

"And in the center of the sealing formation, there is a crimson gap close to the size of a palm. The reason why the abnormal magic power appears in the Xinghu lake is the majestic fire element magic power that periodically gushes out from this crimson gap."

"The magic item should be located behind the crimson gap."

"I tried to forcibly open the crimson gap, but failed."

"Although this crimson gap is visible to the naked eye, it seems to exist in another space and cannot be touched."

"Through observation, I found that the crimson gap is gradually expanding with the passage of time. It is related to the fact that the lake water in Xinghu Lake will gradually return to normal after the annual harvest festival. The bigger it is, it will reach the maximum at the time of the abundant soil festival, and after the abundant soil festival, this gap will be closed."

The information under the star lake was uttered from the mouth of Ice Witch Ace, which shocked Lilia and Shanika's eyes, and made Roy's eyes gradually dignified.

The mysterious sealing array, the untouchable crimson crack...

All of this made Roy seem to have a flash of lightning in his mind, connecting all the information obtained in the past in an instant.

There is no doubt that the purpose of the second prince, from the beginning to the end, is the magical item of [Arrogant Demon Source] sealed by the mysterious sealing array under the Black Stone Star Lake.

For this reason, he did not hesitate to offend Soros, the Duke of the border who guarded the border and held military power.

But in fact, would the Duke of the border, Breton Soros, really not know about the mysterious sealing formation under the star lake?

This might be there, but not much.

As a top-ranking super noble in the empire, if the border duke's control over his territory was so weak, he would have been overthrown by someone long ago.

Blackstone Territory was originally the territory of the border duke, but it was granted to the old Lord Blackstone Territory who had made outstanding military exploits in the previous imperial war, and Roy's original father.
