Chapter 777: Trying to Connect
Chapter 777 Trial Connection
Saul helps Floco analyze the situation.
“Now every time you pass luck to someone outside, they will be able to help you share some of the curse of the deep sea. This curse will also take effect quickly and harm them. But if you’re careful to avoid it, the people in the outside world won’t necessarily die.”
Saul was used to lessons these days, and the round table behind him responded by raising a small blackboard from the ground.
A chalk-textured image appeared on top of the black surface, automatically demonstrating the scenario Sol was telling.
“Currently you are in the seal and have very little power at your disposal, but there is one power you can utilize, and that is the Deep Sea Curses that are currently sealing you. Normally, these curses are either suppressed on you or backfired on those who got lucky with you. If someone gets your luck and the Deep Sea’s backlash doesn’t act on its counterpart, it creates a force opposite of what it originally was.”
“I’ve thought about this method as well. But I can’t suppress the curse from backfiring.”
“So I’ll try.”
Floco had been sealed for hundreds of years and had tried various ways to escape, but none of them had worked, and although Saul was now proposing an option, he didn’t hold out a lot of hope either.
“How are you going to try?”
“I will try to use a special method to backlink the power of the backlash to you.”
Saying that, Saul poked out a translucent thin thread from his fingertips, like a living earthworm, moving through the air and reaching out a little bit to Floco.
“Gulp.”
Seeing this thin line again, Floco’s throat shrugged twice.
He certainly didn’t need to gulp, but for some reason, he was especially tempted to do it at this point.
“Are you going to attach this thread to me?”
Saul was already moving.
“No, it’s coalescing around you and turning it into a bomb. A bomb you know what it is?”
“Uh ……”
“I’ll be careful to angle it so that the blast doesn’t reach you as much as possible. But in order to send the sea water sealing you from the bottom to the surface, so it must not be less powerful.”
More and more lines had begun to wrap around Floco, and the worst part was that he had no way to fight back yet.
If it was the previous Water God, even if he didn’t want to provoke the Suicide Demon, he could still completely try to escape.
But now he was tied up!
And he was also tied up and brought to this place ……
The lair of the Suicide Demon?
Since he could no longer resist, Floco decided to gain more power for himself and figure out what Saul was up to.
“What do you want to gain by helping me like this?”
Saul sat with his chin in his hand, not much in the way of energy, “Haven’t thought about it yet.”
“Hmm?”
“I haven’t thought about it.” He switched hands, “But it’s time for the legend of the ‘Cat’s Retribution’ to make a comeback. If you don’t collect enough curse power, how can you start a tsunami.”
……
A month after leaving Pelle with Ophelia, the other party finally sent a message to Saul, telling him that he could make his first trial connection.
With several conscious bodies, Saul only took Beth with him, while the others were still left to roam around.
Because the experiment of connecting to the Illusory World was still a secret between Saul and Ophelia up to now, there were still only Saul and Ophelia at the experimental site for the trial connection.
This trial connection experiment would probably last for half a month. Therefore, the blue-skirted Ophelia directly brought Saul to another place that was more suitable for experimentation.
Underneath the main hall of the White Glazed Castle, there was a spatial teleportation spell formation.
This place was guarded by two giant-like beings.
As Saul followed the blue-skirted Ophelia past the two guards, their eyes did not move, but their nostrils kept facing the two. “Just stand in the very center.” Ophelia pointed to the circle in the very center of the spell formation, “This is a spatial teleportation spell formation, I don’t know if you’ve used it before.”
Saul rubbed his chin and didn’t tell her that he had one right underneath his wizard tower for emergency escape.
He stepped into the spell and stood, signaling the blue-skirted Ophelia that he was ready.
Ophelia looked at Saul’s skillful appearance and knew that he knew how the spatial teleportation spell worked, so she went aside and activated the switch.
In the next second, the entire spell formation emitted a dazzling white light that covered Saul’s field of vision.
When the white light receded, Saul saw that he had arrived in a place that was steaming with white mist.
Even with his eyesight, he was unable to penetrate the white fog to see anything three meters away.
Saul raised his hand and waved it twice in front of his eyes. Between the movements of his arms, he brought with him a weak magic power to form a clear wind.
However, the breeze passed through the white fog as if it was passing through a layer of beaded curtains made of metal chains, completely unable to fluctuate the white fog.
“It seems to be a sorcery prop deliberately used to block the line of sight.”
Because there were no next instructions, Saul stayed where he was for the time being and didn’t move around, but he turned around and prepared to look around as much as he could before someone picked him up.
Right after he turned around, the fog around him suddenly faded a lot, and the scene a dozen meters away finally penetrated the fog and entered Saul’s line of sight.
“This ……”
Saul looked at the behemoth behind him, the shock in his heart was so great that he couldn’t even speak for a moment.
Behind him, there was an incomparably huge mechanical device that was out of place with the sorcerer’s style of magic.
Huge gears were connected by equally huge chains. Pipes thicker than a man crisscrossed through supports that looked suspiciously like they were made of steel. Again, it was as if a giant python was wandering through a primeval forest.
The tallest pipes emitted white smoke outward, and the railings at the mouth of the pipes were the jagged teeth of the snake.
“How is the view of the Mechanical Heart?” Ophelia’s voice came from behind Saul.
“Very spectacular.” Sol gave a heartfelt sigh of admiration.
“Heh, you’re still the first person who hasn’t questioned the Mechanical Heart’s connection to sorcery after seeing it.” A human head burrowed out of the mist, followed by a neck hidden in the mist, the body completely invisible, and Ophelia’s white porcelain vase nowhere to be found.
“I prefer the idea that different forms of power end up at the same end.”
“If you’re very interested, I can help introduce you to the principles of the Mechanical Heart.”
“Thanks, another time.” Saul pointed around, “Is this where our experiment will take place?”
“The first time was right here.” Ophelia smiled, and didn’t care that Saul had rejected her offer to introduce the Mechanical Heart.
Her head circled around Sol, “Don’t move around here.”
Ophelia stuck her head directly next to the Mechanical Heart and bit off one of the levers next to it with her teeth.
The huge machinery that was already spinning began to rumble and vibrate with a high frequency.
The fog that had originally filled the entire room suddenly began to move and surrounded the spatial teleportation spell where Saul was, forming a white wall of fog.
“The elemental particles have disappeared?” Saul froze and immediately released the magic power in his body, then he sensed that the elemental particles carried in this magic power were quickly absorbed by the surrounding fog.
Soon, the area within the wall became a vacuum of magic power.
Only then did Ophelia’s head return slowly and leisurely.
However, unlike before when she floated over in the air, when she came back, she crawled back relying on the support of her neck against the ground.
“Now, we don’t have to worry about other distractions and can begin.”
