Chapter 88
The characteristic of the spell "Time Stop" is a gem pocket watch.
Many spells require a certain material as a catalyst, and time stops are no exception. In addition to the gems used by many advanced spells, it also has a clock that is accurate when walking. The specific shape and size does not matter, as long as the time when walking is accurate.
In order to facilitate casting, mages often use special pocket watches. This pocket watch is inlaid with many gems and is very accurate in walking, which can fully meet the needs of spells.
Among known spells, this casting material is unique, so once you see a mage taking out a gem pocket watch during battle, you will probably have to cast this spell.
In fact, as long as the two needs of "accurate timing" and "multiple gemstones" can be met, the casting material of this spell may not necessarily be a gem pocket watch. For example, some ancient genres like to use gem hourglass as the casting material of this spell. Consider from another perspective, the gem celestial globes should be fine. There are many similar things.
However, gem pocket watches are still the first choice material. One is a good decoration itself and is convenient for timekeeping. The other is the cheapest among various more convenient materials - although the cost of each gem pocket watch is more than two thousand gold coins, which is enough to make a low-level mage go bankrupt directly.
Lei rushed out while drawing his sword. He didn't dare to delay at all, but just hoped that he could be fast enough to hit the target while his opponent completed his spell.
But he was still slow after all.
When his sword was just unsheathed, Kahn's pocket watch in his hand made a "click" and stopped.
The moment the pocket watch stopped, everything in the box faded away and turned into a monotonous black and white pattern. Only Kahn, who held the stagnant pocket watch, still maintained the normal color, proving that he was already independent of time at this moment.
At this time, the distance between Lei and him was less than two meters.
Kahn nodded to Lei with a little admiration. He guessed that this swordsman probably had contact with a high-level mage, or even a legendary master. Not many people can understand the high-end spell of "Time Stop", even among mages.
There are so few people who can immediately realize what spell to cast when he sees him taking out his pocket watch, and do not hesitate to take action!
Perhaps this swordsman is also a noble character, and perhaps also a descendant of a legendary master. He was just a cruel joke by fate and did not inherit the ability to cast spells, right?
It's a little worthy of sympathy...
But he would not show mercy because of this. The mutual appreciation between geniuses would not be given to those weak people who were abandoned by fate.
It would be better to say that being able to die under one's own hands instead of struggling and slowly rotting in the quagmire of incompetence may be happier for this poor swordsman.
Kahn raised his right hand, and magical runes were weaved on his fingers, and a spell quickly took shape.
The air in front of the thunder vibrated slightly, and several blurs and distortions appeared. These blurs and distortions were not conspicuous, and they would be ignored if they were not careful.
This is the blade of the force field, which is improved and upgraded based on the low-level spell "magic missile". The level is not high but it is very useful. It does not require materials and is concealed enough. The key is that ordinary physical means cannot resist it, and even the enchanted armor will lose its effectiveness in front of it - unless the armor has a rare force field protection attached to it.
In order to avoid affecting his "super speed" state, it is not advisable to contact the enemy directly when the time stops, nor should it be used to use direct attack spells. So Kahn used a special technique to stop the blade of the force field that should have been shot out in the air.
The force field blade itself is already difficult to resist, let alone the force field blade that is stagnant in the air and will not be emitted until the time stops.
It can be imagined that when time stops, these invisible blades will suddenly appear in front of Lei. They will shoot at the target quickly, perhaps before he noticed them, they were shot.
The blade of force field is sharper and terrifying than an ordinary flying knife. If it is shot, the wound will be difficult to heal. Even if he can avoid the fatal key with his superb reaction, the wounds caused by multiple cuts will completely lose his ability to move and he can only lie on the ground and wait for death from excessive blood loss.
Time stops the blade of the force field, which is sufficient. But Kahn did not stop. He casts the spell again. This time around him, the air fluctuates rapidly, and the invisible force condenses into sharp swords to protect him in the middle.
This is a sword blade barrier, a very effective protective spell.
The casting was still not over. Kahn knew very well how long his time could last, and he could add about two more spells.
To be honest, it is really a bit of a big deal to use so much energy to solve a group of people who are having trouble with meals. But since he takes action, he will not hesitate or reserve.
Negligence and carelessness are the great enemy of the mage. Only with sufficient preparation and sufficient caution can one stay invincible forever.
But at this moment, he saw a scene beyond expectations.
The huge floating jellyfish suddenly returned to its color, and changed from a gray object in a black and white state to its previous green color.
This means that it has also broken free from the constraints of time, and like Kahn, it has stepped into the outside of time, entering a wonderful state called "time stop".
How is that possible! Why does a mere jellyfish have this ability? Could it be actually changed by a certain master?
Kahn was shocked and couldn't help but lose his concentration on the spell. A ball of magic power on his right hand that was about to condense into a rune collapsed instantly, and he also groaned and bleeding came out of his nose.
Casting spells is a double-edged sword. If you succeed, you can harm the enemy, and if you fail, you will harm yourself.
However... he hasn't encountered such a thing in a long time since he failed to cast spells.
Kahn immediately calmed down his mind, his mood quickly returned to calm, and began casting spells again. This time he was preparing to cast a "water extraction element", which could extract the water from the enemy's body and transform it into a water element controlled by the caster. Although a strong body can greatly reduce its damage, the more water there is in the body, the better the effect of the spell.
Jellyfish are large aquatic animals, and more than 95% of their body is composed of water, which means that it has very low resistance to extracting water elements. Moreover, because of the extreme need for water, even if it blocks more than 90% of the damage with its strong body, the remaining 10% is enough to destroy its fluid balance and make it lose its combat effectiveness.
All of this was just a thought in the middle of lightning. But just with just one thought, Kahn had found the most suitable spell and quickly cast it out.
Because he had never been exposed to this information, and had never even considered this situation, he was not sure whether he could attack in a world where both sides were in a "time stop". However, without even thinking, he directly chose to aim the spell at the big jellyfish and release it.
Intuition tells him that in the current situation, it is absolutely fine to attack directly!
The spell of "Sucking Water Element" turned into a dim gray-white light, hitting Sui Xiong, who had just stepped outside of time and had not yet adapted.
The body of the huge jellyfish shook slightly, and a large amount of water was pulled out and turned into a surging flowing water. It has a thick torso and arms similar to people, but it has no head. It has a face like a wailing sound on its chest. If you see it at night, you can scare the timid person to death without attacking.
This is the water element, which is barely a common type among various elemental creatures.
The water element constructed by spells is probably as high as ordinary people. It is the weaker among medium-sized water elements. In terms of combat power, most of them cannot even beat Stir who has become a pig. With this weak force, of course it is impossible to break through the time limit, so it solidifies as soon as it was born, and the blue body instantly fades away and turns into a gray solidified object.
But Kahn had no hope of its combat effectiveness. All he wanted was to drain the moisture from Sui Xiong.
"The tactic was successful!" When he saw the water element forming, he couldn't help but smile.
Calculate the time, and the time stop is about to expire. When the time stops, he will immediately launch a subsequent attack on the jellyfish and must not let it recover!
However, half a minute passed, the world was still black and white, everything was still solidified without any change.
"What's going on?!" Kahn was shocked. He had never encountered such a strange thing.
Time passed by little by little, at least ten seconds passed, but the black and white world was still the same.
Kahn stared at the corner with wide eyes, feeling at a loss.
What should I do? What should I do? What should I do!
Just when he was restless, a green tentacle shot over like a flying man, tightly entangling him.
Then, the world returned to its color and he returned to the normal flow of time.
A green shadow flashed, Sui Xiong blocked the thunder with one tentacle, and the other tentacle blocked the invisible blades of the force field.
The blade-shaped sheet of force field left a series of shrill wounds on the tentacles, but it completely recovered in a blink of an eye, and even a drop of blood did not flow down.
A green light flashed again, and the newly formed water element was shattered, and all the moisture was sucked back by Sui Xiong.
After all this last night, he smiled and said to Kahn, who was still staring blankly: "How is it? How does it feel like time stops?"
"You did it?" Kahn asked in surprise.
"No matter how I say it is a god, is it strange to do this?"
Kahn was silent for a moment and shook his head.
"I lost, I will fight or kill you, and I will go to the emperor."
"There is no need to fight and kill, but I think you, a young man, are too angry and arrogant, which is not possible." Sui Xiong said with a smile, "Young man, you can be more arrogant when writing articles, but it is better to be more humble when doing things."
"Speaking like modesty is nothing more than a mask used by the weak to hide their incompetence."
"So, are you a weak person compared to me?"
Kahn smiled slightly, without fear: "The key to strength and weakness lies in the mind. A king may be weak, and a beggar may be strong. A strong mind is the foundation of everything!"
"That beggar with a strong mind is a strong man?"
"Beggars will not have strong hearts at all, I just say it casually." Kahn shook his head, "People with strong hearts should of course work hard to improve. So they will always be in the pursuit of success and a temporary rest after success. How can a decadent beggar have strong hearts!"
"Then do you think I'm strong?"
"You have no soul that looks down on everything, even a god is not destined to be powerful." Kahn said firmly.
On the issue of principle, even when facing the gods, he did not give in.
