Arcane Lord

Without any hindrance in their movements, Shado and Byron quickly set their sights on the water world itself. It was similar to what Said described. It was very spacious and the edges could hardly be seen.

Xia Duo found that this place was somewhat similar to the [Azure Crystal Plane] found in the Tower of Time, but it was not as clear as the [Azure Crystal Plane]. The water here was not turbid, at least not clear.

There were fishmen and aquatic plants, and there were a lot of them, but they were not as densely packed as the river outside, as Xia Duo had imagined before coming.

Overall it is relatively sparse.

After Sha Duo and Master Byron entered, they immediately attracted the attention of the murlocs, but under Master Byron's spell, the murlocs quickly ignored them.

——"Master, what should we do next?" Xia Duo asked via summons.

——"Check the Magic Network environment first and give me some time!" Byron replied.

There is no doubt about this, but the Grand Arcanist may have unique ideas, so it is appropriate to ask. After receiving Byron's answer, Shado also observed the surrounding magic network.

But before he could find anything, the pioneer scepter he synchronized with him had already reminded him - there was psychic magic here, and it was constantly trying to influence him!

This is an unexpected situation that Seid didn't mention at all before!

Xia Duo felt carefully that something seemed to be impacting his mind, but it was blocked by an invisible barrier. If he sinks himself into his subconscious, he might be able to understand what this information is.

However, in the current situation, even if there was a great arcanist by his side, it was not suitable to be too distracted, and he was not at ease. It would not be too late to review his memories when he returned to a safe place.

Looking at Master Byron again, his beard was scattered like a ball of white water plants in the water, but his eyes were wide and he looked at the surrounding environment with a clear gaze.

Sha Duo was about to remind him that there was psychic magic here, but Master Byron seemed to know about it in advance, and even comforted him in turn: "Don't worry! The Pioneer Scepter is enough to resist the psychic magic here!"

Xia Duo was stunned for a moment, then nodded, and began to check some small items he carried with him. He could indeed directly observe the magic network, and he did, but he did not find anything abnormal.

This is also in line with his understanding of the Mystery Lock. After the normal Mystery Lock layout is completed, it will be as if it does not exist at all, and it will be completely integrated with the larger Magic Network environment.

Of course, this is the most perfect situation. Under normal circumstances, there will still be abnormalities. Xia Duo can also see this. Just like Said said before, the magic network here is full of order, as if it has been reconstructed. Same as ever.

Unlike the natural magic network environment, there are fluctuations and ripples, and it can respond instantly to the caster's operations.

The magic network here looks no different from the outside world, but there are very few fluctuations and almost no ripples. As for the operation, that is, casting spells, Xia Duo has not tried it yet.

Byron didn't even take action rashly, so how could he dare!

…

Xia Duo carries a lot of small items with him, but these are not placed in the portable space. Some magic items must be linked to them before they can be used, which is the so-called "synchrony" or "resonance".

Just like the [Jasper Pendant] hanging around Xia Duo's neck, this gadget found from the ruins of the Territory Mystery Lock can provide permanent cleaning power. If it is synchronized, how will it know where the boundaries of cleaning are?

But it is a pity that even the [Jasper Pendant] originated from the elves cannot take effect in this mysterious lock that can be concluded to be arranged by the elves.

Similar to the [Jasper Pendant] is the [Concentration Ring] on his hand. Although it is not completely invalid, the concentration blessing it can provide is almost negligible.

Except for the above two, the communication magic weapon is completely unusable, as if it has "frozen".

The only thing that can be used normally is [Dimensional Bag], which is somewhat beyond Xia Duo's expectation. Under normal circumstances, [Dimensional Bag] should be banned immediately.

When checking the spell book, he discovered why the dimensional bag could be used normally, while other items had more or less problems.

In the spell book, almost all spells below level 5 cannot be activated. Xia Duo did not try all of them, but he tried a few typical ones, from which he can make inferences.

As for spells above level 5 (including level 5), everything is normal. The spell involved in the dimensional bag is level 5. At the same time, this also means that you can teleport away. Maybe Said flew out after teleportation?

Before, Xia Duo thought that this place was connected to the outside world. Although it felt like it was connected when he came in, in fact, it was all water. How could it be connected?

It is almost impossible to fly out directly. This place is already close to an alien plane. If you teleport, you may not be able to teleport directly to Savile Territory or other places.

But in the real Lake Mekht?

Sha Duo is not sure yet, but it is really not easy for Said to escape from here!

…

After confirming that the spells below level 5 in the Mystery Lock cannot take effect, Sha Duo only needs actual spell-casting experience. For spellcasters, the Mystery Lock may not be as easy to suppress as magic items.

Xia Duo had read information related to Mystery Locks when he was in [Projection Plane·Dark Area]. Although there were no specific technical details, there were many intuitive descriptions.

Normal myth locks do not have such direct ring level restrictions, but rather restrict spells with certain specific elements, which will be more efficient.

The current puzzle seems more comprehensive and has more restrictions, but in fact it may also have more loopholes!

Therefore, Xia Duo also tried to find something from it. Anyway, Master Byron was still checking, so he was idle.

…

I don't know how much time passed before Byron broke away from his fixed gaze. Sha Duo, who had been paying attention to Byron, noticed this and immediately asked: "Master, have you discovered anything?"

"There are a lot of discoveries!" Byron was about to explain, but suddenly stopped, as if he thought of something, and asked curiously: "Lord Shado, have you discovered anything?"

"I?"

Byron didn't ask, so Xia Duo thought he was just here to make fun of the crowd, but it was true that it was difficult for him to provide much help to Byron. It was not an exaggeration to say that he was just making trouble.

But at this moment Byron's inquiry reminded him of Byron's reputation spread outside, and he seemed to like to take care of his juniors, which was very similar to Iolum.

Rumor has it that he and Iolum studied together under Congenio for a period of time when they were young, thus accumulating a friendship that spans hundreds of years.

Congenio, on the other hand, has always been a good old man. He has been a figure for hundreds of years. At that time, there was no sectarianism at all, and he would not refuse anyone who wanted to study or seek knowledge.

Rumors may not be the true historical facts, but if they can be spread, they at least reflect a certain degree of authenticity.

Xia Duo knew that this might be an opportunity, so he made a simple statement about his discovery of the magic network environment here, which naturally included the prohibition of spells of level 5 and lower, and restrictions on magic items.

After Byron heard this, he just nodded calmly, but what Sha Duo said next made him show a rare expression of surprise——
