Chapter 260: Only One Spell Is Needed to Cast the Resurrection Armor

"Come, let me test you. How do you think the stone statues on the opposite side detect whether visitors have access rights?" Les wanted to destroy the sensing devices of the two dog-headed statues at once, but after a little thought, he decided to leave this question to Daphne and Astoria.

After hearing Les's question, the two immediately gathered their magic power in the eyes and observed the flow of magic power in the stone statues.

"Eyes!"

"Floor!"

The two shouted at the same time, but the parts were different.

"How come you can't see the obvious flow of magic power in the eyes?" Daphne asked.

"But there is also magic power on the floor. If you don't believe me, look--" Astoria pointed to the floor between the two dog-headed stone statues. Sure enough, there was a faint flow of magic power on it.

"If you say so, there is also magic power flowing on the door, but this is the floor and the door, what does it have to do with the statues?"

The two had a dispute.

"Is there a possibility that the floor, the door and the dog-headed man's eyes are all part of the sensing device?" Les reminded them.

Hmm?

Daphne and Astoria immediately observed it carefully again, and then found that as Les said, the magic power between the eyes of the dog-headed stone statue, the floor and the stone door was inter-circulated, that is, these three parts all played the role of detecting authority: the stone statue checked the area between the floor and the ceiling, the floor detected the person who touched the floor, and the door detected whether the person who pushed the door had authority. Triple protection, any problem in any layer will wake up the stone statue.

"Then what should we do-?"

"If we destroy these three magic arrays at the same time, we can make the stone statue 'blind'." Les gave a way to break the array, and also raised a second question: "The designer must be able to wake up the stone statue to attack once the signal in any of these three places is interrupted, but why didn't they do it?"

Les's question made Daphne and Astoria think.

"Because this was a palace before, people come in and out every day. If there is a problem with any magic array, the awakened stone statue will definitely cause a lot of turmoil, right?" Astoria came up with the answer after thinking for a while.

"Nice reasoning!" Les gave her a thumbs up, "Now we can destroy those magic circles."

The three of them drew out their wands, and three attack magics were fired at the same time, blowing up the eyes, floor tiles and door panels of the dog-headed statue at the same time.

After destroying the three sensing devices, Les brought Daphne and Astoria to the stone gate. Two stone statues of dog-headed people stood quietly on both sides of the gate, without any intention of moving.

Les had a hunch: Hufflepuff was very close to him, and maybe he could get the answer by pushing open this door.

He put his hand on the door and pushed it gently, and the door slid inward automatically.

The space behind the door was very open, with dozens of pillars supporting the ceiling. Each pillar was carved with some reliefs, perhaps telling the great achievements of the palace owner, or perhaps ancient Egyptian myths. But strangely, apart from these pillars, there was nothing in the hall, just a thick layer of sand and soil.

"It's a dead end." Daphne stood behind Les and looked around the hall, and found that this was the end of the passage they came in.

Before the palace was abandoned, there might be countless gold and silver treasures or papyrus books here, but now there is nothing here, only a pile of sand.

Maybe thousands of years ago, this place was taken by someone first.

Les was a little unwilling in his heart. He squatted on the ground, grabbed a handful of sand, and let it slip from his palm.

The clues that were finally found were broken here-a thousand years ago, Helga came here, fought a battle with the palace guards, and left again. The magic fluctuations left behind also pitted his old friend a thousand years later.

"Alas..." Les sighed.

But he always felt that something seemed wrong, but he couldn't figure out what went wrong.

Les frowned and thought for a while, and a question flashed through his mind: the aftermath of the battle can still be observed after a thousand years, so why is this hall still so intact, even the stone carvings on the pillars have not been destroyed?

Thinking of this, he stood up suddenly, scaring Daphne and Astoria, but before they could ask questions, a figure appeared in the corner of the hall in the blind spot of the three people's sight. As soon as it raised its hand, a strong light flashed in front of it and rushed straight to Les.

However, due to the position problem, Daphne became the target of this spell instead of Les.

The incident happened suddenly, and Daphne and Astoria did not react. The same was true for Les. It took less than half a second from the appearance of the figure to the attack on Daphne. He just subconsciously released a defensive magic, but the defensive power of this spell released in a hurry was worrying.

The strong light instantly broke through Les's defensive magic and rushed in front of Daphne. The magic was so powerful that it could tear her into pieces in an instant, so that the girl couldn't even open her eyes. But at this moment, the necklace hanging on Daphne's chest broke, and a thick light curtain appeared in front of her, swallowing the strong light.

The next moment, the same light reflected back from in front of Daphne, and abruptly blasted a one-foot-wide hole in the wall of the hall.

From Daphne's surprise attack to the rebound of the spell, it took less than a second in total. Daphne didn't even know why her necklace suddenly broke - if it weren't for this necklace, she wouldn't even know when she died.

"Be careful!" Les yelled, turned around quickly, waved his hand at Daphne and Astoria and pulled them behind him. At the same time, the magic power was swayed around like it was free, and he was building his own domain at the fastest speed.

Astoria was the first to react and cast a defensive spell. Daphne also woke up from her dream and subconsciously tried to activate the spell in the necklace, but she reached out to her chest and touched nothing.

She realized that her necklace had just exploded into pieces.

"You two, get out first, immediately, right now!" Les said seriously, without any room for bargaining in his tone.

Daphne opened her mouth and wanted to say something, but was interrupted by Astoria pulling her sleeve.

The three of them walked slowly towards the door together. Les was extremely nervous, always on guard against the arrival of the next round of attacks - the figure disappeared when the spell rebounded, but Les didn't think it was killed by the rebounding spell.

He knew that thing was hidden in the palace, ready to give them another fatal sneak attack at any time.
