Above the Seven Towers

Chapter 718: Chase game

Lorenzo walked towards the city first, waving his hand and saying, "Follow me."

Catalina chased after him and asked, "Do you have a solution?"

"It just proves that the formation at Heimu Pass has been destroyed. Maybe we still have a chance." Lorenzo said confidently.

When Wu Qi saw that they were heading towards Suero's teleportation room, she was surprised and asked, "Is there any way to find out the problem from the formation here?"

"Of course not, but the formation at Heimu Pass is still there." Lorenzo looked at the two stunned girls with a smile.

"Are you kidding me? You are planning to reconnect the teleportation array between Suero and Kuromuguan? What if..." Catalina's words got stuck in her throat.

"Don't worry." Lorenzo explained as he walked quickly, "Any large teleportation array requires both sides to be prepared before it can be used, so there has never been a case where the two hostile parties each controlled one side of the teleportation array and were able to launch a surprise attack. If we can't get through, they can't get through either, so don't worry."

"But... they won't place magic crystals in it, nor will they respond to the signal?" Wu Qi said.

"That's right. Maybe they will destroy this magic circle as soon as possible." Catalina also said.

Lorenzo waved his hand and said, "The possibility of destroying the magic circle is very small. Our magic circle technology combines the heritage of the Tower of Talisman and is different from the Empire. After they got it, they didn't have time to protect and study it. How can they go back and destroy it? I guess they should have sent a few mages to study it slowly, and the formation I designed is not so easy to break. They should still be working on those special structures.

As for the magic crystal, to study the magic circle, we must at least ensure that the magic circle has a minimum level of magic power to keep it running. We don't need to actually open the transmission, as long as there is a preliminary connection, I have a way to confirm this."

"But it is also very likely that they will directly close the magic circle?" Wu Qi said.

"Of course, this is a gamble. If this is true... just consider yourself unlucky!"

The group arrived at Suero's teleportation room and was stopped by the guards at the door. Before Catalina could speak, Lorenzo said directly: "The Intelligence Department is going to conduct a surprise inspection of the teleportation array. I am Lorenzo, the designer of the array, and this is Catalina, the specialist of the Intelligence Department. Please leave this room temporarily."

"But we haven't received any notification." The mage in charge of the teleportation room heard the noise and walked out.

"That's why it's called a surprise inspection." Catalina came back to her senses at this time and took out her ID. "This investigation is related to the Heimuguan incident and involves many sensitive issues. You'd better not ask too many questions. If you have any questions, you can contact Tang Feng, the director of the Operations Bureau of the Intelligence Department."

"We'll cooperate, we'll cooperate." The mages and guards on duty obviously didn't want to have anything to do with the Intelligence Department's major case, so they simply gave up the room and went to the room nearby to rest.

"I hope you won't get into any trouble." Catalina said nervously as she walked in.

"Let's talk about it when we get into trouble." Lorenzo chuckled.

After Lorenzo entered the room, he asked Wu Qi to place magic crystals on the teleportation array. He then came to the control array and transferred the array connected to it from Hewan New City to Heimu Pass.

"Sure enough, the opponent's magic circle is activated." Lorenzo said as he adjusted the parameters of the magic circle, "This means that today's mission is halfway to success."

After Wu Qi placed the crystal stone, Lorenzo started the docking procedure, sent a signal to the magic circle of Heimuguan, and came to the location of the teleportation array. He said, "That's good. As long as we maintain this state, I can find out the situation on the other side."

Lorenzo placed one hand on the corner of the magic circle on the ground and began to tap it gently and rhythmically. A tiny and fine mental force from him flowed into the teleportation magic circle like a small snake. At this time, the magic circles on both sides had already formed a preliminary connection and touched each other, forming a small space channel. This channel could not transmit a large amount of matter, but it was enough to transmit a mental force. His mental force thus entered the teleportation magic circle of Heimuguan.

This was a small secret technique of the Tower of Talismans, the formation detection. He had passed this secret technique to other mages, but currently no one could control the formation to the same level as he did.

Lorenzo knelt on one knee. After a while, a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth. "Found it!"

"Is it what you thought?" Wu Qi asked.

"No, he is even more stupid than I thought. He actually used two lines to achieve this effect. This makes me, as a teacher, very dissatisfied." Lorenzo said.

"So we have evidence, right?" Catalina asked.

Lorenzo said, "I will write a proof to prove that the formation had been tampered with when the magic crystal was placed that day. I will also prove that Zhang Hong has the ability to do so. As for whether you can nail him with this evidence, that is your business."

"Then I need to prove that no one else has had the opportunity to tamper with the formation since the night before," Catalina said.

"Huh? What's going on? Someone is operating this formation and actually discovered my mental power?" Lorenzo found that a mental power had entered the formation from the other side of Heimu Pass. As soon as that mental power came in, it rushed towards his mental power, imitating the way his mental power moved, and began to chase him in the formation.

"There's a great magician over there who discovered our movements and actually tried to imitate my methods. Humph, he's courting death." Lorenzo never thought that realm could represent everything. He understood that the other party must have been studying the structure of this magic circle, and suddenly discovered that mental power had penetrated into the magic circle, so he followed his example to find out what was going on.

The other party must have intended to capture him. As long as he could capture this mental power, he would naturally be able to obtain some information about the person who controlled the mental power.

However, Lorenzo's mental power was like that of a nimble mouse, while the opponent's mental power was like that of a clumsy elephant. It was obvious that he had not yet fully mastered the skill of roaming in the magic circle.

While Lorenzo was hooking up with the pursuing spiritual power, he ordered: "You two go over and each take a magic crystal from the formation. As soon as I give the order, you pull out the crystal."

"clear!"

Lorenzo deliberately slowed down the speed of his mental power, allowing the mental power to slowly catch up with it. Just when the mental power was about to catch up with him, he suddenly drilled into the space tunnel between the two magic circles. The pursuers who didn't know why followed him in. The mental power was too strong, causing the originally small tunnel to be shaky. At this time, Lorenzo shouted: "Pull out!"

The space channel collapsed immediately after losing its magic support, suddenly cutting off the mental power that was tracking him.

Lorenzo pressed his hands to the ground at the same time, and the surging spiritual power devoured all the spiritual power that had been cut off...

"Gandas? Arrogant idiot. Hmm? Looks like there's something interesting here." (To be continued)
