Wizard Bloodline.

Chapter 406: The Sinking Eye, the Shrine of Speed, and the Road to the Golden Country
Ronan slowly tightened his grip on the hair tie.

Before throwing Fumingge into the endless maze, he had already taken off the space ring he carried with him. His powerful mental power violently broke through the rune lock on the ring and found the eyeball that was suspected to be Orion's.

Apart from this, nothing else related to the two people was found.

Ronan pursed his lips tightly. He didn't expect that after the news of his "death" came out, Kirsty would come to the central part to "investigate".

Even Orion might be implicated.

The images of the two kept flashing through Ronan's mind, and he felt a little confused for a moment.

After taking a few deep breaths, I slowly calmed down.

"I hope..it's okay."

He cleaned up the battlefield, cleared all traces of himself, then called upon the ancient thunder eagle Oris and left.

Ronan sat on the back of the ancient thunder eagle. At around seven or eight in the morning, the sun rose in the clouds, with thousands of golden rays shining directly in front of him. The cold wind from the sky blew from both sides.

He held a milky white old-fashioned pocket watch in his hand and rubbed it gently.

Soon, faint rune fluctuations came from the pocket watch.

"Ani, help me find two people"

Ronan spoke softly.

It’s just a matter of finding two people, there’s no need to bother the Prophet Eve.

Putting away the pocket watch-shaped communication prop, Ronan squinted his eyes and looked at the sea of ​​clouds, mountains, lakes, and forests in the distance, which were rapidly passing by him.

As the sun set, Ronan had completely left the range of the Empire of Life.

When the sun rose the next day, Ronan arrived at his destination.

——This is a deserted and barren land with almost no normal vegetation.

The sky appeared to be a colorful turbid vortex, and the rocks on the ground were flowing, forming some kind of black and yellow colloid, mud and sand, moving, and where Ronan's eyes fell, a huge downward funnel was formed.

The free energy in the air is dense and unstable. When the mental power is slightly released, it is as if it touches some invisible restriction, "activating" clusters of dazzling flowing electric currents in the void, presenting a dense and complex natural rune light path.

Ronan felt that his mental strength was being suppressed in some way, and this natural suppressive force became more and more obvious the closer he got to the huge mudslide vortex in the distance.

He tried to move forward for a while. When he was still tens of kilometers away from the center of the vortex, some energy particles condensed on their own and kept hitting him like a whip or lightning.

On the map of the Central Continent, this place is located in the center of the three major wizard empires: the Pendulum of Fate, the Court of Life, and Tangista.

Its name is - "The Sinking Eye".

"call--"

Ronan stopped moving forward and paused where he was.

At this moment, he was like a drop of water falling into a boiling oil pan. The slightest movement might cause a series of chain reactions. The free energy particles in this area were extremely difficult to control. Ronan didn't even dare to fully deploy the [Star Force Field].

"The Eye of Sinking is the entrance from the Upper Ring Continent to the Middle Ring. The sinking force of the world and the gathered energy particles form a nearly natural spell restriction. It takes at least the strength of a seventh-level wizard to break this barrier and enter safely."

Arrazan's voice came from his mind.

Ronan's eyes flickered, and he replied in a low voice: "Let me try first."

Under the platinum and gold robe, Ronan stretched out his body, the golden gear mark on his right wrist flickered, and the power of the seal still existed. Although the signs of loosening were becoming more and more obvious, it was still firmly on him, making his demonic body unable to be used and causing him great discomfort.

Ronan frowned, and then began to take things out of the space ring.

One was black, like some mysterious stone, one was a square box, and the other was like a torch, but there were two statues with spread wings on the top of the torch.

They are all shrines.

Different types of shrines.

During the more than three years in the Lost Land, Ronan reincarnated in his dreams for more than a thousand years, witnessing the prosperity and decline of the Keldiim Empire with different identities and perspectives.

He "participated" in the construction of the great waterway almost throughout the entire process, and was familiar with the structure of the entire ancient waterway, naturally including the locations of the shrines placed artificially in the waterway.

Ronan understood the principles of the development of the shrine, and also learned the purpose of the Keldiim wizards placing the shrine in the waterway - mainly to resist the monsters that ran out from the underground, similar to a "supply station".

There are roughly several types of shrines: defense shrines, healing shrines, mana shrines, speed shrines, strength shrines and evolution shrines.

Among them, the number of Evolution Shrines is the least. Ronan found a completely preserved Strength Shrine, and almost all of them have been opened and used.

He had collected a portion of the power of the first four types of shrines.

The origin of the shrine comes from the "shrine altar" before ancient times, which was a blessing specially left for believers by the gods before their death.

Even if a mortal obtains the power within, he or she can temporarily possess the power to compete with a powerful wizard.

The same goes for the shrine. An ordinary soldier of the Keldim Empire, with the power of the shrine, can fight head-on with the monsters underground. This was a solution devised by high-level wizards after a large number of wizards of the empire were killed when the waterway was first opened.

What Ronan is taking out now is the power of the defensive shrine and the power of the speed shrine.

The effect of the Mana Shrine is to allow wizards to quickly replenish the mental energy consumed by casting spells, but it is not needed at the moment.

When the square stone box that sealed the power of the defensive shrine was opened, a ball of light blue light immediately wrapped around Ronan like a stream of water, forming a thin layer of defensive light film around him.

This was not the first time that Ronan used the power of the defensive shrine. Back in the Minotaur's endless maze, it was the power of the defensive shrine that allowed him to successfully escape from a group of level five "monsters".

Before the power of the defensive shrine is completely consumed, it can theoretically withstand any means below level six.

Of course, the validity period is only about five minutes.

As for the other power of the Speed ​​Shrine
Ronan shifted his gaze, picked up another torch-shaped stone sculpture, and gently fiddled with the wing sculpture on the stone pillar. With a "click" sound, a stream of light blue energy flowed out from the gap between the wings and quickly surrounded Ronan's body.

All of a sudden.

The platinum robe on Ronan moved without wind, and the hem of the robe rose slightly.

It was as if an invisible breeze was surrounding Ronan all the time, giving him an extremely light feeling.

But Ronan was sure that this was not the power of the "wind".

"rule.."

He looked at his hands, his eyes flickering, "The power of rules related to speed."

It's not just the power of the speed shrine, the power of the rest of the shrines as well, and they are different from the elemental powers that wizards are accustomed to controlling. What are sealed in the shrines are some strange energies that are different from elemental energy.

It contains fragments of "rules", so it can bring all kinds of incredible powers to the user.

"Holy power. No, if you trace it back to its source, it would be more appropriate to describe it as 'divine power'."

The power of God.

In the era when the gods had not yet collectively left the stage, perhaps this kind of power was the mainstream at that time.
A hint of strangeness appeared in Ronan's eyes, but it quickly disappeared.

Now is not the time to daydream about the "mythical era".

With the power of the two holy shrines blessing his body, Ronan took a deep breath.

The next second his eyes suddenly lit up, and there seemed to be dense, invisible veins in front of him reflected in his pupils.

Ronan suddenly moved, and his figure shot out like lightning.

Driven by the combination of [Star Force Field] and mental strength, and with the blessing of the power of the Speed ​​Shrine, his speed was so fast that only a translucent horizontal peak-shaped ripple remained.

Only the densely packed light patterns and lightning cast by the activated energy restrictions can barely capture a tiny bit of the forward trajectory.

The effect of [Instinct's Grip] prying the rules allowed Ronan to master the power of the shrine containing the "rules" with ease. All the "resistance" along the way was blocked by the power of the defensive shrine.

Ronan crossed the distance of dozens of kilometers in the blink of an eye.

His figure suddenly stopped at the edge of the huge rock flow funnel. Under the baptism of countless energy turbulences, he stared at the center of the funnel through the light blue defensive light film.

There was a turbid "darkness" there, with the thunder of destruction flashing and jumping in it. Ronan felt a slight sense of threat just by looking at it.

Above the darkness, there is a thick barrier formed by countless rune light patterns intertwined and interwoven.

Alazan was right. The entrance to the "Sinking Eye" was blocked and had to be broken by external force.

Ronan thought about it, and tried to slowly point his finger towards the center of the funnel.

Along with the flow of rich forbidden energy, a dark sun slowly rose as Ronan pointed his finger.

A level of imperial power blessing, [Forbidden Black Hole]!
Due to the extremely unstable environment of energy particles, the entire edge of the "black hole" spell summoned by Ronan was completely distorted, like a fried egg.

But at the same time, the power of this [Forbidden Black Hole] is much greater than that in normal state.

The terrifying twisted black hole fell on the barrier where countless light patterns were intertwined, just like a drop of water hitting the net, which only caused the barrier to "dent" slightly, and then there were no more ripples.

"It seems that only a seventh-level Twilight Wizard can break it."

"Is this considered an entry restriction imposed by the middle ring wizards on the upper ring wizards?"

Ronan's eyes flickered, and he turned around silently and returned the same way he came while the power defending the shrine had not yet faded.

He did not want to try to explore the path of "sinking" now, but because the call of the Golden Country to him came from here. The next inheritance of the [Golden Country] was hidden under the "Eye of Sinking".

For now, it seems that his search for the Golden City will have to be put on hold.

At noon on the seventh day, Ronan rode the ancient thunder eagle back to the Firefly Mist City.

Just like when he came here, Ronan lingered on the blue-roofed house for a while, but did not see Grace. Perhaps she had gone out.

He returned to his residence and put away his magical clone that was concealing his identity. Not long after, the wizard Ani came to visit him.

"Your Majesty, the two people you asked me to find... have already found results."

Ani, a level 5 wizard dressed in a moon-white robe and more handsome than a woman, stood in front of Ronan and reported in a soft voice.

"explain."

"A male wizard named Orian, who is in the seventh division of the Elemental Circle, has been living in seclusion since two years ago."

"Is he still alive?"

"Yes."

Arnie replied: "Everything is fine."

Ronan's expression suddenly relaxed.

It seems that the eyeball that Fuminge took out and said to be Orion's was actually fake.

"What about the other one?"

Ronan's slightly anxious heart was relieved and he continued to ask.

Ani hesitated for a moment, then whispered, "The woman named Kosti now exists in the form of a soul."
