While Firo couldn't figure out Connor's purpose, Connor shook his head at him, then ignored Firo and walked straight into the depths of the palace.
Seeing Connor's strange behavior, Firo couldn't figure out Connor's purpose. He felt that the great power brought to him by the secret skill was about to dissipate. Once the effect of the secret skill was over, he would be in a weakened state. By then, he would be at the mercy of Connor Ferguson. Therefore, even though he was afraid of Connor, Firo gritted his teeth and chose to take the risk. He turned into a bloody shadow and rushed towards Connor.
Firo's speed in the form of a blood shadow could be said to be very fast. In just a blink of an eye, he had already flown more than ten meters away. In just a few seconds, Firo would be right behind Connor. But at this time, Connor was still leisurely strolling towards the depths of the palace. He didn't seem to care about Firo's pursuit at all.
Seeing Connor's arrogance, Firo was annoyed, but he also had a sense of expectation. Although he didn't know what gave Connor the courage to be so arrogant in front of him, if things went on like this, Connor Ferguson would definitely pay a heavy price for his arrogance, or even his life! ,
However, just when Firo was having a beautiful fantasy, something unexpected happened.
When Firo was less than 10 meters away from Connor, a dark green wizardry barrier suddenly condensed on the floor tiles of the palace, trapping Firo in it.
"Bang!"
Firo, who had turned into a bloody shadow, crashed heavily on the wizardry barrier and fell to the ground with a heavy thud. At the same time, Firo only felt a sharp pain in his ribs. Obviously, a few of his ribs were broken by the sudden appearance of the dark green wizardry barrier. However, the dark green wizardry barrier that trapped him was intact.
Just when Firo still hadn't figured out what had happened, Connor's calm voice came from outside the wizardry barrier.
"This wizardry barrier is called the Ursacun Barrier. It was a method used by ancient alchemists to deal with demons that crawled out of the abyss. This wizardry barrier is abnormally strong, and it has a corrosive effect. Every minute you stay in the barrier, your physical body and magical power will be corroded a little. Now, this wizardry barrier is the best way to deal with Firo!"
"Firo, stay in this Ursacun Barrier for now. I'll come back to see you in a while!" Connor said and gently flicked the barrier with his finger as a greeting to his old friend, Firo.
Firo, who understood that all of this was Connor's trap, immediately became extremely agitated. He attacked the dark green wizardry barrier with all his might, trying to break out of it. At the same time, he cursed at Connor like a mad dog in the wizardry barrier.
"Connor Ferguson, you bastard, I'm going to kill you. I'm going to rip out your heart and feed it to the wolves bit by bit. Connor, I'm going to kill you first, and then I'm going to kill everyone in the Ferguson family, one by one …"
Although Firo's attacks on the Ursacun Barrier were frenzied and he was not stingy with the consumption of his magic power, it was a pity that the Ursacun Barrier was too strong. No matter how hard Firo hit it, it was as solid as a rock. There was no reaction at all.
Hearing Firo's insults, Connor didn't feel angry at all. On the contrary, a smile appeared on his face. He knew that Firo was at death's door, and that he was like a cornered beast that was putting up a final struggle.
After discovering the metal card, Connor discovered that the ruins were nearby. He also realized that there must be some defensive barriers in the ruins, so he quickly came up with a plan to use his advantage as an alchemist to manipulate the barriers in the ruins to kill Firo.
The reason why Connor dared to be so arrogant in front of Firo was that after he entered the palace before Firo, he quickly checked the barriers in the palace and found that they had existed for an unknown number of years. Otherwise, why would Connor Ferguson, who was cautious and suspicious by nature, look down on a strong enemy like Firo so much?
During Connor's inspection, he found that although the barriers here could be used, they were passive barriers.
In the Sorcerer World, barriers could be divided into many types according to various conditions. However, if they were to be differentiated based on the conditions of use, there were generally two types of barriers. One was called active barrier, and the other was called passive barrier. As the name implied, active barrier was one that could be used without any restrictions and could be activated by a Sorcerer to attack the enemy.
As for passive barrier, it meant that the barrier would only be activated to attack the enemy when it met a certain trigger condition. At this moment, the trigger condition of this barrier was "attack".
This meant that in this area, whoever took the initiative to attack would trigger the barrier and be targeted by the barrier. Connor, who understood this, took full advantage of this and deliberately provoked Firo so that he would take the initiative to attack so that he would be targeted by the barrier.
Now that Firo was trapped in the Ursakin Barrier and could not escape, his body and magic would be corroded, Connor's plan was undoubtedly very successful.
Connor took out his pocket watch and glanced at the time. Then, he put the watch back into his pocket and turned to walk into the depths of the palace.
When he introduced the Ursakin Barrier to Firo earlier, Connor had said a lot about it, including the origin of the Ursakin Barrier, its functions, and so on. However, there was one thing that Connor did not tell Firo, and that was that the Ursakin Barrier could only exist for a maximum of half an hour from the time it was formed. After half an hour, regardless of whether Firo could break the barrier or not, the Ursakin Barrier would automatically disappear.
Connor did not know whether Firo could survive the corrosion of the Ursakin Barrier for half an hour, but he was willing to believe that Firo could do it. Therefore, Connor would wait for twenty-five minutes before returning. If Firo died, it would be best. Connor could use the Mind-manipulating Spell to retrieve the Blood Moon Codex that Marguerite had entrusted him with from his Deity Ocean.
If Firo's vitality was off the charts and he came out of the Ursakin Barrier alive, then Connor would naturally be able to wait for him to come out of the Ursakin Barrier alive. Then, he would be able to finish him off and send him on his way …
