1863 Bind
“So that’s how it is…”
Fang Heng had some guesses in his heart and once again activated the Book of Oaths!
“Whoosh! Whoosh Whoosh!!!”
The holy remnant chapter once again attacked the phantom shadow rat!
The phantom shadow rat’s eyes revealed a human-like excitement. It turned into a black shadow and crashed into the holy remnant chapter!
“Bang! Bang Bang !!!”
The holy remnant chapter crashed into the phantom shadow rat, and the black fog exploded!
The phantom shadow rat was sent flying backward, but it seemed to be enjoying itself. It got up repeatedly and rushed toward the holy remnant chapter.
Fang Heng remained standing at the same spot, observing the condition of the phantom shadow rat, muttering softly, “I see…”
Aktu was a little confused as he watched from the side. Hearing Fang Heng’s muttering, he couldn’t help but ask, “Brother Fang Heng, what’s going on?”
“Hmm, in my opinion, it should be related to the bind on the phantom shadow rat. The first time it was attacked by the holy remnant chapter, the phantom shadow rat probably realized that the bind on its body was weakening.”
“Bind?”
Aktu also turned to look at the phantom shadow rat when he heard that. Only then did he realize there were red web-like patterns on the phantom shadow rat’s body.
“Yes, the holy remnant chapter has the ability to purify and dispel, and it has the ability to restrain all kinds of dark-attributed powers. While attacking the phantom shadow rat, it also has an effect on the bind on its body.”
Fang Heng continued to explain, “The shadow phantom rat doesn’t know the principle of this. It only feels that the bind on its body has been weakened. That’s why it keeps attacking the holy remnant chapter. It probably hopes that we can continue to use the holy remnant chapter to help it remove the bind on its body.”
“So I see…”
Hearing Fang Heng’s words, Aktu finally understood. His eyes lit up and he asked, “Brother Fang Heng, can we use the holy remnant chapter to help it undo the bind on its body?”
“I’m afraid I can’t do it.”
Fang Heng shook his head.
After the previous consumption, there was not much Holy Light energy left in the holy remnant chapter and it was still rapidly being consumed, and the binding strength on the phantom shadow rat was very high. After dozens of collisions, there was no obvious weakening.
Fang Heng was very clear about this.
After the holy remnant chapter hit the phantom shadow rat, most of its power was offset by the black fog that exploded from its body.
The effect on its bind was negligible.
After a while, the energy of the holy remnant chapter was exhausted, and it flew back to the Book of Oaths.
The phantom shadow rat sensed that the power in the holy remnant chapter was gradually disappearing, and it looked at Fang Heng and Aktu. It squeaked as if it was expressing its dissatisfaction.
“Hey, Fang Heng.”
Aktu whispered, raising his guard.
“It’s fine.”
Fang Heng extended his hand, signaling Aktu not to act rashly. He then carefully approached the phantom shadow rat.
“We came with good intentions. We just want to help you undo the bind on your body. We have no ill intentions.”
The phantom shadow rat seemed to understand Fang Heng’s words. It obediently stayed where it was and watched as Fang Heng slowly approached it.
Until the distance between Fang Heng and the phantom shadow rat was less than half a meter, the phantom shadow rat stood up and tilted its head to look at Fang Heng.
The two of them looked at each other.
Fang Heng shifted his gaze to the shackles on the phantom shadow rat’s ankle.
The shackles were tightly connected to the ground.
It was an advanced stealth magic array!
“Whoosh!”
Fang Heng looked at the ground, the magic array in his right eye spinning rapidly.
“Buzz…”
Under the activation of the omniscient eye, a faint magic array pattern appeared on the ground.
Eh?
Was the magic array absorbing the surrounding black fog?
Fang Heng was even more surprised.
Whoosh! Whoosh Whoosh!!!
Under the urging of Fang Heng’s omniscient eye, the magic array began to spin faster.
“Squeak squeak!”
Under the influence of the magic array, the dark red shackles on the shadow phantom rat’s body suddenly lit up!
The phantom shadow rat felt the pain. Layers of black fog seeped out of its body, and at the same time, it let out a threatening cry at Fang Heng.
Aktu’s heart tightened when he saw this. He hurriedly shouted, “Brother Fang Heng! Be careful!”
“Yes.”
Fang Heng noticed the abnormality of the phantom shadow rat and immediately stopped the operation of the omniscient eye.
[Hint: The player has discovered an unknown modified alchemy magic array.]
[Hint: This magic array is of a higher level than the player. The player can only obtain basic information.]
[Alchemy magic array (High-tier concealment type).]
Description: A specially-made high-tier magic array. It has a concealment effect and can absorb and convert energy of a fixed frequency.
Attribute: No attribute, related to occultism.
It can absorb the black fog’s power to strengthen magic arrays.
Fang Heng was deep in thought.
The magic array used an extremely ingenious method to absorb the power of the black fog released by the phantom shadow rat and convert it to bind the phantom shadow rat’s movements.
In theory, the stronger the phantom shadow rat was, the more intense its struggle would be, and the stronger the power of the bind would be.
The phantom shadow rat alone would never be able to break through this layer of bind.
What a genius design!
Fang Heng sighed in his heart.
The player who had designed and created this magic array had to be at least a grandmaster in occultism and alchemy.
If he wanted to completely undo the magic array…
Given enough time, coupled with the omniscient eye and a large number of zombie clones to increase the success rate, he could complete the task in two months.
But now…
The situation outside was critical, and he couldn’t afford two months.
There was a more convenient way.
He activated the magic array with all his might and sent the phantom shadow rat into a near-death state.
At that time, without the support of the phantom shadow rat’s power, the magic array’s energy supply would be insufficient, and its defensive ability would be greatly reduced. He would then directly use external force to shatter it!
However, the damage to the phantom shadow rat was a little too great.
There was no other way. Time was tight. This was the only plan Fang Heng could think of.
Let’s give it a try!
Fang Heng looked up at the phantom shadow rat and pointed at the magic array, “This thing is very strong. I can’t handle it alone. I need your help.”
Fang Heng tried to gesture at the phantom shadow rat.
The phantom shadow rodent was extremely intelligent and seemed to be able to understand Fang Heng’s language. It probably realized that Fang Heng could help it escape. Immediately, its eyes revealed excitement and it squeaked.
It seemed that it had suffered from the bind for many years, and even in its dreams, it wanted to break free.
“And it will be very painful. It will bring you great harm, and you might even fall unconscious. You have to be prepared to endure great pain.”
“Squeak squeak!”
The phantom shadow rodent called out as a reply.
“Alright, let’s begin!”
Fang Heng didn’t waste any time. After he finished speaking, the magic array reflection in his right orb began to spin rapidly!
Swoosh!!
The magic array was stimulated, and the dark ruby shackles released a powerful suppressive force on the apparition shade rat.
“Chi, chi chi…”
After being stimulated, a thick black fog seeped out from the apparition shade rat’s body!
In almost a moment, the density of the black fog around the cave increased rapidly!
