Mystery: Time Travelers of the Fourth Era

Chapter 504 The Box of the Past

I cherish you so much, of course I'll use you until you're worn out!

Klein smiled as he put away the Blood General, Señor. Although this guy was utterly wicked in life, he was still able to receive the respect due to his good qualities after death.

On the other side, Dorian was very fast this time, having already completed one-third of the scene recording.

In fact, the ritual for advancing from Sequence 4 to Sequence 3 is relatively quick, except for the Fool's Path, which takes 300 years.

Dorian's promotion ceremony shouldn't take too long if no one interferes. The only problem is that since Butis isn't with him, he's probably with Klein, which makes Dorian a little worried about Klein's safety.

Klein certainly lived up to Dorian's expectations.

He fell for it so easily. Logically speaking, the Diviner's ability to counter divination is actually quite good, but the whole scene is only so big. Facing a Mystic who is incredibly fast at traversing the map and has a talent for finding people, it's normal for his location to be exposed.

As for lying flat without any resistance, enjoying the stiffness as if one's spirit threads were being manipulated at will, that's even more normal. The arcane mage's stealth abilities are quite good. Since Butis has decided to eliminate Klein, how could he possibly have a proper confrontation with him?

Explore the scene, discover the target, and stealthily approach the old box.

While setting up traps and preparing the stage (after all, magicians don't fight unprepared battles), without any awareness, his chosen ambush location and the stage he built were all taken into the Box of the Past. It was a simple move that directly changed the location of space and incidentally included the creatures within it. Klein didn't realize the problem until his body began to rust and turn into a toy.

This cannot be blamed on Klein's carelessness or anything like that. His personal qualities are not problematic, and his strategic decisions are also quite standard. However, the space that the Old Box can contain is enough to hold an entire Backlund. This means that as long as Butis determines the approximate location, he can contain Klein even from 800 miles away.

Under normal circumstances, Klein would be finished within minutes.

This is, after all, a level 0 sealed artifact, and the classical robe made using the sequence 5 characteristics cannot be teleported out.

That's what Butis thought, so after waiting a while, he specifically put away the Box of the Ancients and went to deal with Dorian. Without outside interference, he could fight Dorian with peace of mind. The reason he didn't use the Box of the Ancients against Dorian was also very simple...

This level 0 sealed artifact is too powerful. If used on Dorian, who understands its details, it might not be able to kill him instantly. It might have negative effects and cause him to crash and burn. But it's very easy to deal with a nasty slippery creature like Gehrman. He can be easily subdued without giving Dorian a chance to react or come to his aid.

On the other side, damn it!

The first layer of the old box...

This was only the first level; Klein realized he had underestimated the terror of a level 0 sealed artifact.

Dorian had, of course, explained the effects of the Old Days Box to him. However, Dorian explained that although the beings trapped inside the Old Days Box could not escape and their bodies would become like toys, they would only be completely assimilated into the internal environment of the Old Days Box after 24 hours. As long as they were released within a day, they could still be saved. Therefore, Klein was relatively relaxed.

He had read about a monkey crawling through a gourd and emerging from the hole in a classic novel, and similar stories have remained popular for a long time. But after entering, he found that it was not the same thing. The control of this thing was almost on par with the spiritual line. Once the ability to move was lost, nothing could be done inside.

"Luckily... I was prepared..."

Unable to resist and finding himself in a difficult situation, Klein resorted to a pre-prepared contingency plan.

A drop of blood was smeared on the brown bark cover.

Klein's spirit was thus absorbed into Grosser's Travels.

Although the body is still under the control of the Old Box, it has at least retained some mobility.

Call ~

"This level 0 sealed artifact is truly terrifying."

Klein discovered that not only was his body unable to move, but soon, even the Winner's Puppet, which he had placed in his spatial pocket and used to coat "The Travels of Grossell" with his pre-made blood at the crucial moment, was also affected. This was probably because the spatial pocket was of mediocre quality, since this was exactly what Klein wanted: to be able to directly manipulate the puppet inside through the spatial pocket.

Although the Secret Puppet can still be affected, it doesn't matter; the Secret Puppet can't die a second time.

The only regret is...

"The stage I painstakingly prepared!"

This is the most heartbreaking part. Klein was really serious and worked very hard to set up the trap in order to fight the demigod.

Now all his efforts have been wasted, and his plan to use the Blood General to absorb damage and exhaust his durability at once has also been half-aborted.

"There's nothing we can do now but rely on Mr. Dorian."

The weather in Grosser's Travelogue was quite warm, and the warm sunlight made Klose feel sleepy, but he resisted and just sat on the lawn basking in the sun, playing with a card of blasphemy in his hand.

The demigods outside are too cunning; to deal with a Sequence 5, they actually used a Level 0 sealed artifact.

Klein muttered to himself about Butis's decisive actions.

Outside, Dorian became alert after Klein's coordinates disappeared.

However, instead of searching immediately, he sped up the recording of the scene, seemingly in a hurry.

Three minutes passed, and Boutis arrived late but not late. This time he went all out. A series of intersecting afterimages flashed by, and Boutis flipped through the Book of Illusions. All kinds of extraordinary abilities recorded poured out like a torrent, harassing the enemy on one hand and sealing off the space on the other. Meanwhile, the real Boutis turned to the page that recorded the abilities of a demigod and combined the overall attack flow.

Dorian did not back down, displaying equally superb flow of consciousness and combo skills.

The two mages went all out this time, fighting all over the world. Dorian was still mainly on the defensive, after all, he still needed to record the surrounding scene, but his aura was stronger and his speed was faster, because he had already absorbed one-third of the Wanderer's Potion.

A glint of starlight flashed in Butis's eyes, his killing intent intensified, and his attacks became even more ferocious. However, he did not find anything wrong with Dorian drinking the "potion" to advance while completing the ritual. He had seen too many madmen in the Aurora Meeting.

Moreover, he has a way out. He only needs to open the second layer of the Old Days Box to teleport himself or someone close to him. Although it is likely to be random, the prize pool contains all sorts of locations that Abraham has been to, such as the Abyss and the Starry Sky. Random teleportation can easily lead to death.

But those who pass through the gate are not so easily killed.
