Chapter 715 Desperate Situation
According to common sense, they should have been able to be teleported away from here directly, but unexpectedly, the system suddenly lost response, as if it had completely malfunctioned.
"Yun, what is going on?" Malfurion looked at the motionless Yun anxiously, his heart full of worry and confusion.
Yun's face was terribly gloomy. He clenched his teeth and replied coldly: "We...we can't go back for the time being."
This result was obviously unexpected by Yun. He couldn't help but wonder, the system was working normally before, and even successfully teleported them away when they arrived at the entrance of the hall, but why did it suddenly fail now? After careful consideration, Yun realized that the problem was probably with the mechanism set by Soridorsen.
"We can't go back? Then won't we be trapped here?" Tyrande looked at Yun in astonishment, with a hint of panic in her voice.
However, Yun had no time to care about Tyrande's feelings at this moment. He had only one thought in his mind, which was to find out what happened here as soon as possible and what kind of existence the mechanism that Soridor had just fiddled with was. Only by understanding these, he could come up with a countermeasure and get out of the current predicament.
So Yun made a quick decision and decided to summon some demons to help him investigate the situation. Yun used the skill of "Demon Summoning". However, to his shock, this skill was completely ineffective!
"Did you trap us here on purpose?" Tyrande's voice was full of disbelief and anger. Her eyes were fixed on Yun Wen, as if she wanted to see through his eyes what he was really thinking deep in his heart.
"Are you trying to kill us all?" Tyrande's question was like a sharp sword, piercing Yun Wen's heart. Her words revealed her extreme dissatisfaction and distrust of Yun Wen, as if she had already determined that he was the culprit that had put them in trouble.
Yun Wen's face was so gloomy that water could drip out of it. His brows were tightly knitted and his lips were tightly closed. He was obviously irritated by Tyrande's accusation. After all, at this critical moment, he couldn't take care of himself, so how could he have the time and energy to explain to her?
"Take her away, or I don't mind killing her right now." Yun Wen's voice was cold and ruthless, revealing an undisguised threat. His eyes were like a ray of cold light, shooting straight at Malfurion, as if warning him not to meddle in other people's business.
Malfurion saw this and showed a hint of helplessness on his face. He knew Yun Wen was in a bad mood at the moment and that Tyrande was a little out of control, but he couldn't just watch the two of them quarreling here. So he hurried forward and grabbed Tyrande, trying to take her away from this tense situation.
"Why are you pulling me? He's already like this." Tyrande was even more furious when she saw Malfurion pulling her. She struggled to break free from Malfurion's hand, feeling very dissatisfied with his behavior.
"Shut up!" Malfurion yelled, his voice echoing in the air with obvious anger. He has always been a calm and wise man, but now he seems to be a completely different person.
He thought to himself, no matter whether the current situation was caused by Yun or not, the most urgent thing was to solve the current dilemma first. What's the point of questioning Yun? If all this was not done by Yun, then they must find a way to escape from here with Yun; and if Yun was really the instigator, would he give up easily just because of a few questions? This is obviously unrealistic.
However, the others did not seem to care about Malfurion's situation. Their attention was completely attracted by Thaurissan - Thaurissan looked very strange, his body was floating in the air, and he was surrounded by a ball of burning flames. The flames seemed to have life, constantly rolling and jumping, emitting a heart-pounding heat wave.
Not only that, but wisps of flame suddenly appeared on the ground, slithering like poisonous snakes. Seeing this, everyone was terrified and hurriedly retreated, fearing that they would be burned by the flames.
At this moment, Aegwynn shot an icy arrow without hesitation, flying straight towards the fireball. However, unexpectedly, the moment the icy arrow touched the fireball, it disappeared without a trace, like a drop in the ocean, without causing any ripples.
Seeing this, everyone looked at each other in astonishment. Faced with such a strange scene, they didn't know what to do for a moment, and could only wait and see what would happen next.
The flames on the ground were like a ferocious beast, constantly devouring everything around it. The fire grew bigger and bigger, as if it was going to burn the entire world to ashes. And in the raging flames, a huge magic circle pattern gradually emerged. It was like the veins of the earth, intricate, mysterious and spectacular.
Yun looked at this sudden scene with some concern. He retreated to Aegwynn's side and asked with a worried look on his face, "What kind of magic circle is this?"
Aegwynn stared at the blazing magic circle with a frown on her face. She answered thoughtfully, "This should be a space magic circle, but I'm not sure about the details. There are many runes and symbols in it that I have never seen before."
After hearing what Aegwynn said, Yun's doubts did not diminish. He asked, "What is the function of this magic circle?"
Aegwynn took a deep breath and explained, "The biggest function of the space array is to create a portal, which can establish connections between different spaces. So, I guess it is very likely that some big guy is going to come through this portal."
Yun narrowed his eyes slightly, as if he had thought of something. He asked hesitantly, "Hmm? A portal? Could it be a fire elemental creature? And it's connected to the Land of Fire?"
Aegwynn's expression became a little serious. He nodded and said, "That's a possibility. After all, this space spell requires a large amount of fire energy to catalyze it. So even if it is not connected to the Land of Fire, it must be closely related to fire."
Aegwynn's words revealed a hint of nervousness, and it was obvious that he was full of worries about this unknown portal. Yun fell into deep thought, and he began to think about the secrets and dangers that might be hidden behind this magic circle.
"Hmm?" Yun looked at Aegwynn doubtfully, as if he was a little surprised by his reaction. "Are you a little scared?"
Aegwynn shook her head quickly and explained with a smile, "I'm not scared, but I've experienced too many unexpected things since I was with my teacher. Now that I see the scale of this magic circle, I know that the guy who came must be no ordinary person, so I'm a little excited."
Aegwynn originally just wanted to improve his strength, but since Yun told him that he was a guardian, he became very serious about improving his strength. Especially during the time he played dungeons with Yun, his strength was greatly improved. Not only did he become more proficient in the use of skills, but he also learned many different combat techniques.
Although the portal in front of him did look a little scary, Aegwynn regarded it as a kind of training for himself. After all, he was determined to become a guardian, so how could he be scared by a mere enemy? He must not be afraid of any enemy, no matter how powerful they were!
"Okay, it's great that you think so." Yun showed a gratified smile on his face. He secretly sighed in his heart that he really deserved to be a guardian! Although his current strength is still lacking, this mentality is already quite good.
At this moment, Elan also walked over quickly, his eyes fixed on the blazing fireball, in which Soridor was wrapped in flames, making it difficult to see the situation. Elan asked in a slightly nervous voice: "Master Yun, what is going on?"
Yun shook his head and answered blankly, "I don't know either." He looked around and found that although everyone else seemed a little nervous, they did not show obvious fear, which made him feel a little relieved.
Seeing this, Elan continued to ask: "Are there any clues? We have always felt something strange along the way."
Yun pondered for a moment, then said: "Well... I think it should be the fire element at work, but I don't know which guy is responsible." His tone seemed quite relaxed, as if he didn't care much about this matter.
After listening to Yun's words, Elan didn't get much useful information, and he couldn't help feeling a little disappointed. But he quickly adjusted his mindset, thinking that since Master Yun was so calm, this matter shouldn't be too difficult to resolve. So he nodded and said, "Okay."
The flames on the magic circle spread rapidly, as if they were given life, jumping and dancing. In the blink of an eye, the originally blazing flames seemed to laugh happily, and this strange scene made people shudder.
The flames raged on the magic circle, leaving behind snake-like winding trails. The flames seemed to be drawing a mysterious picture, covering the entire magic circle.
At this moment, the huge fireball where Soridorsen was suddenly and without warning sank straight into the center of the magic circle, as if it was dragged in by an invisible hand. Then, the entire magic circle erupted into a raging sea of fire like a ignited gunpowder barrel.
The sea of fire came with such force that it devoured the entire formation in the blink of an eye, making it impossible to see the original appearance of the formation.
"It's coming!" Aegwynn's voice suddenly rang out in the sea of fire. Her tone was extremely solemn, as if she had foreseen something terrible was about to happen.
Before Yun could ask what was going on, the others were already preparing for battle as if they were facing a powerful enemy.
At this moment, Yun's sight was attracted by three fire demons that slowly walked out of the sea of fire. These three fire demons were burning with blazing flames, and their figures looked particularly ferocious under the reflection of the fire.
The leading fire demon was obviously larger than the other two, but still much smaller than the previous Savras.
"You've disturbed the master's rest!" The fire demon let out a deafening roar, as if the entire space was shaking.
Before he finished his words, the three fire demons rushed towards Malfurion like arrows.
Seeing this, everyone hurriedly used their unique skills and launched a fierce attack on the three fire monsters.
However, just as everyone was fighting fiercely, Aegwynn suddenly uttered a surprised sound: "Huh?"
"What's wrong?" Yun's heart tightened and he quickly turned to look at Aegwynn, only to see her staring at the familiar-looking fire demon with a suspicious look on her face, as if she had discovered something wrong.
Aegwynn frowned and said in confusion, "Why do I feel like my spellcasting speed has suddenly become very slow? It's as if something is holding me back."
After hearing this, Yun couldn't help but feel a little doubtful. After thinking for a moment, he said, "Well... why don't you try to lift the curse?"
Although Aegwynn felt a little strange, she still did as she was told. She chanted a spell and then waved it gently at the fire demon.
"Huh?" Aegwynn was surprised to find that her ice arrow could be released smoothly and its speed had returned to normal.
"Okay, it looks like this fire demon is the culprit." Yun breathed a sigh of relief, and at the same time he also understood who this fire demon was.
"Everyone, be careful!" Yun shouted anxiously, his voice echoing in the empty hall, "This guy can set off a rain of fire, the power is quite amazing!"
When everyone heard Yun's warning, although they did not respond immediately, they all nodded slightly at the same time, indicating that they had received the message.
However, just as Yun finished his words, a burst of blazing flames suddenly fell like a torrential rain. This rain of fire appeared suddenly without any warning, as if it was gushing out from hell, and smashed straight to the ground.
If Yun hadn't warned them in time, it would have been hard for anyone present to escape such a sudden attack. The rain of fire was so fierce and powerful that it made people gasp in amazement.
However, the attack did not stop there. Fire rain continued to pour down like raindrops, continuously bombarding the ground. Yun began to feel a little worried, because the space in this hall was not very spacious, and the three fire demons seemed to have not suffered any damage after being attacked for such a long time.
Although no one was injured at the moment, a very serious problem gradually emerged - the rain of fire showed no sign of stopping. Just these three short rains of fire had already made many places in the hall impassable.
Fortunately, everyone reacted quickly and retreated to the corner, so that the third rain of fire fell right on the edge and did not cause any direct damage to them.
However, if the rain of fire continues to fall at this rate, it won’t be long before there will be no place left to stand in this hall.
Yun also ventured into the rain of fire to feel it. Just one falling fireball hit Yun and it was so painful. There were obvious severe burns on his body. Even after using the healing skill, there was no improvement. If it were someone else, they would probably be finished after just two hits.
Before I knew it, I had fallen into a desperate situation.
