Chapter 437 The wizard who cannot come back
To be precise, Herage couldn't place his hopes on others.
Parker may be able to help him, but at most he can only protect Herag. Parker will definitely not care about the safety of others. Herag can only find a way on his own.
Herage thought about these questions while instilling magic power into the teleportation ring.
The light flashed and disappeared.
…
Temple of Dusk.
"Lord Bannings, there are fewer and fewer people in the world of X-617, but no one has teleported out."
Next to the teleportation altar, a wizard named Lares reported to Bannings.
Lares is responsible for the management of the teleportation altar, and he can sense how many people are inside.
Bannings looked at the teleportation altar with a heavy expression, already feeling something bad in his heart.
During this period of time, no one has transmitted it.
They can know the number of people inside, but they don't know the specific situation inside and can't know what happened inside.
During this period, we also sent people in to investigate, but no one came back. One by one disappeared.
The number of people in the world of X-617 has been slowly decreasing, but no one has come out.
This means that the people inside may have died inside, leaving them with no chance to teleport out.
This was considered normal at first, and it was normal for wizards to die.
But slowly, the wizards guarding outside the Dusk Temple felt something was wrong.
No one was teleported out. This was obviously inconsistent with common sense. Could it be that they all died in an instant and had no chance to come out.
After Bannings learned the news, he sent people in to investigate, but the people sent in never came out.
Now everyone realized that there might be something wrong in the world of X-617.
Just as they were trying to figure out what was going on inside, something happened.
The number of people in the world of X-617 decreased rapidly, but none of the reduced people came out.
In just a few hours, there were only about thirty wizards left in this world, and all the others had disappeared.
There are only two ways to disappear: dead or teleported away.
Since none of them were transmitted, it means they all died inside.
"What kind of situation could lead to the death of such a large number of people, and no one has a chance to escape..." Bannings thought about the possibilities.
He suddenly thought of something and said to Lares: "Show me the teleportation ring."
Lares then took out a teleportation ring and handed it over.
Bannings held the teleportation ring, rolling it between his fingers and observing.
After looking at it for a while, he asked: "Have these teleportation rings been tested?"
Lares lowered his head and said: "Every teleportation ring has been tested many times. Whether it is accuracy or stability, there is no problem after testing. It can definitely return to the teleportation point here normally."
"Absolutely? I'm afraid that's not the case. Whose hand did these teleportation rings come from?" Bannings continued to ask.
"Master of witchcraft making, Mr. Alanis." Lares said.
Bannings rubbed the teleportation ring in his hand and whispered: "Alanis...I'll go see him."
"Sir, do you mean the issue of the teleportation ring?" Lares asked.
Bannings said: "I am just guessing that it is too abnormal for so many people not to come out. I don't think they all died in there. If there is something wrong with the teleportation ring itself, then all this can be explained. It makes sense.”
"There's something wrong with the teleportation ring..." Lares seemed to understand after thinking about this possibility.
But after he thought of this, he immediately felt scared.
If there is really something wrong with the teleportation ring, then these wizards who enter the world of X-617 will be no different from death.
He had a certain understanding of how chaotic the planes and spaces were. If they were transported into the chaotic space torrent, it would be almost impossible for those crystallized wizards to survive.
More importantly, these wizards are all outstanding talents from all forces.
If something goes wrong with them...
Lares broke into a cold sweat on his back just thinking about it.
Bannings held the teleportation ring in his hand and arrived outside Alanis's blacksmith shop after a few space jumps.
He looked up at the old blacksmith shop sign, adjusted his monocle and walked in.
The blacksmith shop is very clean and tidy, not as dirty as the blacksmith shops in other places.
Bannings suddenly realized that this was a place where witchcraft tools were made. He almost thought this was a blacksmith shop.
After he entered the narrow store, he saw no one in the store, so he walked inside along a path.
After arriving in a dark room, he saw Alanis lying on a recliner, sleeping peacefully.
"wrong……"
Bannings noticed something unusual. He didn't hear Alanis's heartbeat.
He quickly walked to the recliner and after checking, he found that Alanis was dead.
Alanis didn't have any wounds on his body and seemed to have died of natural old age.
And it looks like he has been dead for a while.
Since Alanis didn't have any relatives or friends, no one even knew he died in his own home.
If the wizard's body was not stronger than that of ordinary people, I am afraid that this would have been rotten to the point of disgrace.
"It just happened to be that he died during this period. This is too much of a coincidence."
Bannings realized that there was a high probability that there was something wrong with the teleportation ring.
The timing of Alanis' death was too coincidental to be such a coincidence.
Bannings quickly returned to the Temple of Dusk, informed others of the incident, and revealed his guess.
This matter was soon known to all parties, and people rushed to the Dusk Temple to investigate.
The technology of the teleportation ring is not complicated, and there are many masters of making magic weapons, Alanis is not the only one.
Since Alanis had nothing unusual in his life, the expedition team chose to let him complete the refining of this batch of orders.
But I never expected that this man had been pretending all his life, but when he was dying, he buried a big hole.
Alanis is an undoubted master of making witchcraft. The teleportation rings he makes are of high quality and have very stable effects.
The expedition team also inspected and tested every teleportation ring at the beginning, and no problems were found.
But no one thought that Alanis had hidden an extremely small witch formation inside.
This tiny witch formation usually has no effect and will not cause any abnormalities.
The only time it works is when Alanis dies.
In other words, this witch formation will only be activated after Alanis dies.
The teleportation ring originally recorded the coordinates of the teleportation altar in the Dusk Temple. Once activated, it can be teleported here.
Normally this is indeed the case, there is no problem. (End of chapter)
