Chapter 95 Pretense

  William and the fiery red-haired tower guard were walking in the tunnel leading to the sealed chamber.

   The two of them were silent along the way, and when they approached the door of the sealed chamber, the tower guard said:

"Now that we're all here, I'm not going to ask 'do you think about it again' or 'are you sure you want to do it' or anything like that. But if things get out of hand, I'll try to get you out as much as possible. ."

   To this William just answered blankly:

   "You don't have to force it."

   Then he said:

   "But now this situation should have been completely avoided, and the reminder given by the Rose Palace is early enough."

   In response, the tower guard sighed and said:

   "But how he did it, I haven't figured it out yet..."

  The door of the seal room opened, and the room at this time was illuminated by countless complicated spell seals, and the seventy-seven seals were blessed on the crazy box at the end of the room.

  Crazy Box now looks as calm as before, without any restlessness.

   Everything seemed normal except that the place where the soul fragments were supposed to be floating was empty.

  According to the description of the guard who was guarding this room before, he first witnessed the thief holding the sacred object at the door of the sealing room, and looked back to see that the sacred object on the crazy box was gone.

   Before that, he didn't even feel that someone had entered the sealing room.

   If the other party hadn't accidentally exposed himself before he finally left, he probably wouldn't have had time to sound the alarm and open the seventy-seven spare seals.

   "The thief should have deliberately exposed himself in the end."

   Looking at the constantly changing seals in the seal room, the tower guard suddenly said.

   "Why expose yourself on purpose? Is it just for provocation?"

   William asked casually.

   "I don't know... It may be to give us time to react, so that we can open the backup seal, and delay the time for the magic general mania to break through the seal."

   The tower guard replied in thought.

   "Will it be like this?"

   William said perfunctorily.

"But to be honest, if this is the case, then his approach is too risky. When the Star Council designed this place, it was completely unsure how long the backup sealing measures would last. It would be better to say that this thing was just a Psychological comfort."

   did not notice the other party's perfunctory attitude, the tower guard looked at the seal solemnly and said.

   Seventy-seven seals have not been broken so far, which can be said to be completely beyond her expectations.

   After all, Manic is the first demon general under the mad fool, and his fierce name can be said to be widely circulated in certain circles.

   Basically, every time it comes into the world, it will cause disasters on a huge scale, and it is a real mythical existence.

   It has only been recorded three times in the world.

The record of   's first advent was far in the Silver Era, but it was mentioned vaguely that it drove everyone in a big city on the Boiling Plain to madness. In the end, it was only successfully exiled by three god-men heroes who broke their vows.

  The second time was in the age when the Watchers of the End were active a thousand years ago. It disguised as Fox III, the "Mad King" of the Baroque Kingdom, in the early stage of the second invasion. Ironically, during the reign of this false mad king, the national power of the Baroque Kingdom even increased. Under the command of Manic, the Baroque Kingdom has won many wars against the Kos Empire in a row. And it was also suspected by the eunuchs under him. He secretly found the Tribunal to investigate the abnormality of his king. In the end, the Tribunal revealed its identity and exiled him back to the Moon Realm.

   And the third time was the period of the promotion of the law of the stars. Mania came to Nakuland and wanted to destroy the construction of the star lighthouse. This time it was defeated by the great sage Yeats, and was sealed at the bottom of this lighthouse until now.

   "So we now..."

   The tower guard stared at the mad box and was about to tell the special envoy from the City of Thorns what to do next, but he didn't want the other party to ignore the seals and go straight over.

  …

   Getting the Soul Fragment of the Father of Crows is not a troublesome thing for William.

   The defensive power here may be impregnable to others, but to him it is no different from paper.

   The problem is how to evacuate the fortress area before the seal is broken - especially the enchanters and alchemists.

   After all, "manic" is more ostentatious among magic generals. When it comes to fights, there is a lot of movement.

   If he just released it like this, after William banishes him back to the Moon Realm, it is estimated that there will not be a few sane people left in the entire fortress area.

   So he has to evacuate all the people here before the seal is lifted - it is better to evacuate to his own site.

   Before he came, he had informed Nezemar and Cass that he had to take care of the valuable technicians who came over.

   While thinking, William passed through the seventy-seven flashy seals and came to the crazy box.

  Because the seal of the mad box has never been unlocked, no one knows what the specific situation will be, except for the result that the mania will be released after the seal is unlocked.

   Will there be a big movement, or will it be a silent breakthrough? Mania is to break the seal in an instant, and it will take some time to come out?

   They don't know, after all, no one will take off the seal and do an experiment to find out.

   They might even think that those spare seals can buy themselves some time.

   So what William has to do is also very simple, let them mistakenly think that the soul fragment has been stolen.

   Ignoring the voice of the woman behind him, William looked at the empty space above the Crazy Box and slowly extended his hand.

   Immediately, a shadow was torn apart by William, and he took out a dark phantom crow feather from the shadow cover.

  Crowfeather Prophet didn't steal the soul fragment at all. In fact, the seal has never been unlocked. He just used shadow spells to cover up the shape and aura of the soul fragment under the blessing of the Crown of Original Darkness.

   And the guardian of the sealing room saw the soul fragment that Crowfeather Prophet had in his hand, but it was genuine, otherwise he couldn't deceive the master-level peak magic caster.

   It’s just that the soul fragment in the hands of the Ravenfeather Prophet is actually the one that William took out in the Holy Sepulchre earlier.

According to William's estimation, after the other party discovered that the holy relic that sealed the mad box had been stolen, the first reaction would definitely not be when the mad general could stretch his hand out of the mad box at any time and grab something around him and smash it hard. , put his head next to him to check whether the sealed relic was really stolen.

   As they are now, they will directly sound the alarm to open the backup seal, and withdraw all the personnel to stand by.

   This is what normal people think.

   Of course, if the opponent really doesn't play cards according to the routine, he insists on checking whether the soul fragment has really been stolen. In terms of results, it won't make much difference for William either.

  The big deal is that if he pushes hard at that time, at least it won't affect his recovery of the Soul Fragment.

   But for those people in the fortress area, he can only apologize.

   After all, he has tried his best.

   Fortunately, everything went well.

   As William took the piece of soul fragment from the top of the mad box, the mad box cracked several cracks in an instant.

   At the same time, the seventy-seven seals blessed beside the mad box made a sound like the cracking of porcelain.

   They shattered one by one.

"what…"

   A deep and terrifying voice echoed throughout the sealed chamber.
