A minute before Speck was killed by Turing, the gate of the Pasha Magic Tower was slammed shut by the impact of Frost Burst.
The power of the frost hit her in the face. Camilla hurriedly released her shield, but she was still blown into the wall. After a loud bang, she felt as if her whole body had been torn apart. She fell to the ground powerlessly …
Belom's power had increased by several levels due to "Energy Abundance" and "Rune Cracking". The shield that he could barely cope with before was now useless. If the "Frost Baron" was not focused on pursuing Roddy, he would have just used an Icicle Spell to end Camilla's life.
"Ahem …"
The stinging pain in her chest made Camilla cough. She stood up with the help of the wall and instinctively looked up to look for Roddy. But then she was completely shocked by the strange structure of the Pasha Magic Tower …
Standing in the hall on the first floor, Camilla looked up and found that her field of vision was filled with sealed corridors suspended in the air. The densely packed corridors made it look like a labyrinth.
The 100-meter-tall tower was hollow in the middle, and the intricate staircases extended all the way to the top of the tower. It did not give off the impression of "luxury", "grandeur", and "high class" that people had of a magic tower. It only made people feel that there was no order to speak of here.
At this time, Rody's figure was flying through the layers of corridors. Belom, who was hot on his heels, frantically brandished his longsword. Ice magic bloomed with blue light, producing crackling sounds and crackling sounds.
But with the agility and skills of a "witcher", Roddy almost ignored the terrain and jumped back and forth on the stairs. No matter how the heavily armored Belom attacked, it seemed that he could not do anything to Roddy.
But Camilla knew very well that there was no battle that could be won by "escaping".
She struggled to prop herself up and rushed up the stairs. But almost immediately, she was completely confused by the irregular corridors. There were corridors that led upstairs, but as she walked, she went downstairs. There were corridors that led to the left, but when she passed through the corridor, she ran to the right …
"Sealed space?"
Camilla frowned and suddenly realized that there seemed to be a special "space barrier" here. On the other hand, Roddy's reaction was the complete opposite of hers. He had long lost his patience with the maze-like path. His sword had already cut down at least two flights of stairs, but he still couldn't stop Roddy from escaping.
"Die!"
Just as Roddy's figure appeared in a corridor ten meters away, Belorme's longsword suddenly slashed forward. The sharp frost sword qi directly cut through the two-meter-wide, three-meter-tall corridor, and with a "Kacha!", the corridor split in half!
Roddy screamed. His figure flashed in the falling debris, and then disappeared in the flying smoke and dust.
The impact was so powerful that the falling wood smashed through three or four corridors. Camilla looked around anxiously, but she could not find Roddy. Then, she realized Belorme's threat and quickly took a few steps back, hiding in a blind spot.
Such a trick could not fool Belorme, but he had no interest in it at the moment. Reaching out with both hands, Belorme jumped down from the seventh floor. With a clang, he landed on the third floor. With a sharp sword in hand, his sharp eyes searched for Roddy among the fallen ruins.
On the seventh floor, Camilla held her breath and slowly moved to the side. Roddy's disappearance had chilled her heart, but she immediately thought of her companions from the "Holy Assembly" who might have entered this place before them. So, she gritted her teeth and prepared to search for him.
She knew very well that there might be a chance of fighting Belorme with more people, but if she went alone, it would be no different from suicide.
However, she had only taken a few steps when a hand suddenly reached out from behind. Camilla was startled and raised her hand to recite an incantation. However, she did not expect that the large hand would cover her mouth. At the same time, her waist was also grabbed, and her entire body retreated uncontrollably.
The scenery in front of her quickly retreated. Camilla found that she could not even speak, let alone cast a spell. She could feel herself being dragged to the edge of the wall by the ambusher, and then continued to retreat. She pushed open a secret door that could be flipped, and hid in the secret room at the back!
The light around her dimmed slightly. Camilla gritted her teeth. When she felt the hand on her mouth and waist loosen, she turned around and prepared to cast a "Flame Blast". She had never been treated so rudely in her life, especially when someone grabbed her waist in such a position …
This was absolutely unforgivable in Camilla's eyes!
However, her raised hand was directly grabbed by the other party. Her other hand, which was about to continue casting, was also held down by the other party. Subsequently, her entire body was forcefully pushed against the wall by the other party …
"Stop!"
Roddy's low voice rang in Camilla's ears.
When she realized that the person in front of her was actually Roddy, Camilla was stunned at first, then she struggled with all her might. "Let go of me!"
Her hands were pressed against the wall, and she was almost face to face with Roddy. Her plump breasts were hurting from Roddy's hard leather armor …
This position was too unsightly. At first glance, it looked as if Roddy was about to force a kiss on Camilla. He also knew that this was not appropriate, so he quickly let go of his hand and took a step back. He wanted to ask why Camilla chased after them, but he knew that it was useless to ask. He simply said, "I have a way to deal with him. If you want to live, listen to me, understand?"
Roddy had always been the commander, so he did not hold back when facing Camilla.
But how could the arcane genius Camilla be convinced? Capable people had their own pride. It was one thing to be willing to follow the orders of the "Holy Assembly", but it was another thing to unconditionally obey a human that she had only known for an hour.
Moreover … Roddy's actions could definitely be classified as "molestation". This made Camilla even more furious at Roddy!
"Why should I listen to you?!"
Although it was a rhetorical question, Camilla also suppressed her voice. In fact, she also understood the principle of "emergency response", but she was taken advantage of for no reason. As a woman, not to mention the fact that she was at a disadvantage, why should she be ordered around by him?
Just as she finished speaking, Camilla's expression froze. Rody, who was in front of her, was covered in injuries. There was a wound on his cheek caused by an icicle spell. Blood was dripping down his cheek to the ground. A large piece of his leather shoulder armor was missing. The battle axe that he was originally holding was nowhere to be found.
Even with the terrain, and even with his rich combat experience, Roddy almost lost his life in the face of Bellorme's terrifying attack. Camilla looked at the blood on his body, but did not ask any more questions …
Roddy ignored the change in her emotions and glanced at the closed secret door. He ignored the blood on his face and said in a low voice, "There are a few magic circles upstairs. If they are activated, they can help us get rid of this guy …"
Camilla pursed her lips slightly … What "we"? I'm not on the same side as you at all!
But before Roddy could continue, a loud "boom" caused both of them to stagger. In a moment of desperation, Camilla grabbed Roddy's arm to steady herself. When she came to her senses, she realized that something was wrong and quickly let go …
But Roddy did not continue his sentence. The sudden light in the room caused his gaze to turn solemn.
He rushed to the prototype magic circle in the center of the secret room, only to find that the core of the magic circle, which had originally stopped working, was slowly changing. The elements gradually became turbulent, and Camilla frowned. "What happened?"
She turned to look at Roddy, but saw an unprecedented frustration and despair on Roddy's face. Camilla's heart skipped a beat, and she immediately thought of the worst possibility.
"It's Turing! Damn it … I'm still a step too late! "
Roddy's gaze was a little chaotic, as if he had lost focus for a moment. Magic circles would never be activated by themselves, and the crystals would never be activated by themselves. This situation could only mean one thing: Turing had recovered his strength!
This was an enemy that even the Demigod Cadgar could not defeat!
Camilla did not have much of an idea about Turing, but she was very clear about one fact: Turing's awakening had something to do with her companions from the "Holy Assembly" …
She did not want to sit here and wait in despair. She asked aloud, "What should we do? Do we just wait here? "
Camilla was very opinionated, and she rarely went back to ask for other people's opinions. But at this time, she really did not know how to deal with it. The elements around them were getting denser and denser, and there was an extremely dangerous aura. Belom, who was outside the door, seemed to have discovered Roddy's plan. His angry roar echoed in the hall, and there was a muffled explosion.
"There must be a way … There must be a way …"
Roddy did not answer her question. He reached out to wipe the blood off his face, and his gaze swept across the room.
This was once the laboratory of a High Elf Arcanist. There was a large number of experimental equipment on a flat wooden table, among which there was no lack of flashing "Recharging Crystals".
"Restoring strength requires energy. Without enough energy, you can't control everything …" Roddy tried hard to recall the contents of "On the Self-Consciousness of the Defense System". He repeated the contents in a low voice, "Cadgar cut off all connections between Turing and the Magic Tower, so … so …"
"He still needs some time to regain control of this place? Then where does the energy come from? Is it those crystals? "
Camilla could roughly guess the answer behind Roddy's words, so she asked vaguely. But unexpectedly, this sentence made Roddy suddenly realize the crux of the matter.
"Energy … Yes, the energy of the crystals!"
His eyes seemed to have regained focus in an instant. He reached out to grab Camilla, and stuffed a bottle of "Mid-Level Mana Potion" into her hands. He quickly said, "I'll go and stall Belom. You go and activate the magic circle. Go to the third staircase on the right, and after you go up, take the leftmost path. Keep going straight up. The magic circle is at the top of the Magic Tower. Before Turing recovers his strength, he still can't control it, so …"
Surprisingly, Camilla did not feel any resistance from Roddy's tight grip on her arm. At this moment of life and death, there was no need to think about other things.
"Remember the activation spell, I'm now —"
"Boom!"
The secret room's secret door was blasted open, and Belom's angry roar came from outside. "Let's see where you can hide now! Lowly rat! "
Amidst the shattered bricks, Rody pushed Camilla to the other side while he activated the 'Tortoise Shield' to block Belom's line of sight, allowing her to successfully run to the other side of the corridor amidst the smoke and dust.
"Go!"
