As soon as he finished speaking, the silent spell formation suddenly released a bright light. The dim sphere swelled up, and the white light grew brighter and brighter. Its momentum immediately shocked everyone present.
Rubens immediately realized that he was in trouble and immediately jumped to the side. However, the light did not diminish. The entire magic circle had begun to emit waves as if it had been activated. However, the energy of the "space-time rift" had dried up, and everything was progressing very slowly. Roddy and the others watched as the space-time rift was torn apart inexplicably and grew larger. In the end, it was as tall as a person!
The chaotic gray on the surface of the sphere changed rapidly. Roddy stared at it with his eyes wide open. Suddenly, his expression changed. "Damn it …"
Needless to say, the other Dragons also sensed the demonic aura contained within it. However, before they could cast a spell to forcibly stop it, the entire sphere began to rapidly collapse. Two seconds later, it had completely shrunk to the size of a palm. Finally, with a "buzz", it completely disappeared.
Obviously, the space-time rift had exhausted the last of its energy.
Natha raised her bow helplessly. She had no other means of attack, but she looked around. Everyone, including Roddy, frowned and did not speak for a long time.
"Did I, did I cause trouble?"
Rubens raised both of his hands. No matter how much he joked in the past, when it came to matters related to "demons", he could not afford to be careless. He was afraid that he would end up like Lord Queo and the others. For a moment, the entire dragon panicked.
Roddy shook his head. "The aura seemed to come from the Demonic Plane. However, no living demons have noticed this place — or rather, they have not had the time to notice this place."
"No matter what … something is not right. Perhaps we should call the lords over?"
Iscar stared cautiously at the center of the magic circle. However, just as he finished speaking, footsteps were heard outside the room. Then, a group of mercenaries came directly to the door. The leader, Pan Da, held the Moon God necklace in his hand. When he saw Roddy and the others, he immediately stopped in his tracks. "Who are you!?"
"Huh?"
Roddy was shocked. They did not take this group of people seriously at first, because the illusion could guarantee that they would not be discovered. However, the current situation had obviously exceeded their expectations. The other four dragons in the room all turned to look at Essien. The latter's wooden expression did not change much, but he could not help but mutter in the dragon language, "This is impossible …"
But Pan Da wasn't surprised. The rustic mercenaries in front of him were all stunned. Pan Da, Dewitt, and the others naturally understood the expression on their faces as astonishment when they were "cut off from the back".
At this moment, Pan Da was somewhat proud of himself. He had used his knowledge and vigilance to successfully use the divine arts to decipher the illusion that had bewitched him. However, this priest had immediately concluded that the "illusion" was a product of the "ruins". He had never thought that this group of rustic mercenaries in front of him would be able to use it.
Sterian had taken care of him, but as an arcanist, Pan Da had also made a wrong judgment because he did not know the "limit" of the effect of the divine arts. He had no idea how high the level of the illusion was.
At this time, Pan Da did not forget to specially chant a prayer, asking the Moon God to cast an area of effect divine arts on all the teammates around him. As he quickly finished chanting the prayer, all the mercenaries who followed him could see clearly who Roddy and the others were. Both sides immediately fell into a standoff inside and outside the room. The group of mercenaries and members of the Holy Assembly all unsheathed their weapons and raised their staffs. Under the dense magic waves, it was as if they were ready to fight.
Compared to these mercenaries, the posture of Roddy and the others was obviously a bit comical. Among the seven of them, other than Natha who held up her bow, the others all had their hands hanging down. Even Rubens had his back to them.
"Put down your weapons!"
Captain Dewitt was the first to speak with his sword and shield in hand. He felt that he had more people on his side, and their equipment was obviously of a higher grade. Hence, he had a psychological advantage.
Roddy was facing the group from the side. He had originally planned to solve the problem by force. However, when he heard the prayer that Pan Da was chanting in the High Elf language, he was obviously stunned. He then looked to the side. Rubens and Stika did not realize the problem. Instead, it was Iscar, Essien, and Kardashian who all looked at him inquiringly. "High Elf language" was not something that just anyone could understand. On this continent, other than the Dragons, there were basically only a handful of people who could understand "High Elf language."
Among humans, only the members of the "Holy Assembly" were proficient in this language.
Roddy really wanted to know what the relationship between the "Moon God Clan" and the "Holy Assembly" was, but the Dragons wanted to understand one more question: Why did Essien's magic fail in the face of a low-level divine spell?
Although the classification of professions could not accurately measure an individual's strength, it was a well-known fact that "low-level divine spells" could not break "high-level magic". Moreover, Essien was not using ordinary magic, but high-level Dragon language magic. Even if it could be broken, it would need to be a papal conman. How could these people in front of them have a chance?
"I'll say it again, put down your weapons! Otherwise, we won't be polite! "
The mercenary captain Devitt had no idea what they were thinking about. He just felt that these people were a little strange for them to be standing there like idiots, so he directly shouted. His voice was very loud, and such a shout in the enclosed space made everyone's ears ring. How could the Black Dragon Herrlöw Rubens, who was already in a bad mood, stand this kind of provocation? Immediately, he turned his head with a dark expression. "You —"
Before he could finish his sentence, Roddy rushed over and blocked in front of him. "Don't be anxious, don't be anxious. Let's talk this out …"
As Roddy spoke, he turned his back on Pan Da and the others, and quickly gave Rubens and the few dragons behind them a look. Although the light in the room was dim, everyone understood that Roddy did not intend to let them expose their identities now … The Dragons were not stupid. They immediately understood that in this "state of disguise", they might be able to obtain more information than if they used violence.
It was not that the Dragons did not know how to "extort documents by torture," but when faced with a fellow who could use divine arts to break high-level illusions, who knew what other tricks he had up his sleeve?
The Dragons were not afraid of Pan Da, but in their hearts, they knew that a "God" was not a joke — although "God's Punishment" was rare, it had happened in the history of the Dragons. Therefore, Rubens, who was about to explode, quickly calmed down after being stopped by Roddy. He resisted the desire to unleash his Dragon Power and looked down at the ground …
Roddy was also sweating in his heart. Among this group of people, only Kardashian would truly stand on the same line as him forever. Although the other Dragons were usually on good terms, in an emergency situation, it was still a question whether they would be willing to listen to a human like him.
Fortunately, his previous efforts did not go to waste. Judging from the current situation, the people in front of him were still giving him face.
Roddy patted Rubens on the shoulder. When he turned his face to the side, he reached out to pull the leather hat that he was wearing a little lower. At the same time, he advised in a persuasive tone, "Listen to the leader, listen to the leader. Have you forgotten what happened the last time you were impulsive?"
His tone changed drastically at this moment. He was no longer speaking in perfect Bringan, but with a unique southern Calen accent. At the same time, he dragged the last syllable, making it seem like he had a glib accent. People who mingled in mercenary groups usually spoke in this manner. Roddy had dealt with many mercenaries in the past, so it was natural for him to disguise himself as a mercenary.
In the process of comforting Rubens, Roddy secretly glanced at Kardashian. The latter happened to be standing in the middle when facing the magic circle, which made her look like the leader. She immediately frowned and waved at Roddy. "Pull him aside!"
"Yes! Leader Julia! "
Roddy's acting skills were in place quickly. At the same time, he gave Kardashian a "fake name" and quickly pulled Rubens to the side of the group.
