There are only two possibilities for the devouring ability shown by the snake head. Either it is a different dimension of time and space, or it is a time-space transfer.
Compared with the higher-level space-time dimension, time-space transfer is more likely. After all, the drow priest just used this magic with ease.
No matter which possibility it is, after being sucked in, everyone will not be able to come back in a short time. Even if it is a long-distance time-space transfer, if it is thrown into a powerful creature's lair by a drow priest, or inside a dungeon, it will basically be dead.
"Pyroblast!" The black-robed mage Romon of Weiss' team raised his staff high, the mage's robe buzzed, and a powerful wave of elements spread out in all directions, even blowing away two people who were far away from him. The closest dwarf warrior.
Dots of orange-yellow light converged from all directions, and a basketball-sized blazing light group quickly lit up above the gem at the top of the staff. The intense fire element greatly increased the surrounding temperature, and with a wave of Romon's hand, the blazing light group turned into an orange-yellow light and sprayed forward.
As soon as the light left the top of the staff, it swelled violently, turning into a huge pillar of fire with a diameter comparable to a bullet train, dragging a long flame tail and shooting at the snake's head with its mouth open.
"Not enough!" Rand, who is also a fire-type combat professional and has better fire control ability than a mage, just felt the power of this fire-type magic, as if he foresaw the result of the collision between the pillar of fire and the snake's head.
Pyroblast is equivalent to the third-ring spell in the magic system of Faerun World. This is a common magic that fire magicians will basically learn to master after the fireball spell. The skill system converted into an apostle is almost a C+ level magic skill.
However, Romon's Pyroblast is obviously beyond the scope of the power of the three-ring spell, and he may have improved it specifically for this spell. Judging from the power shown so far, it almost exceeds the magic strength of the fifth ring, which belongs to the B+ level magic skill.
As a second-tier apostle, the black-robed mage should already be regarded as his powerful skill.
However, even if it reaches the skill strength of B+ level, it may not be able to completely counteract the time and space magic that the drow priest bestowed on the snake head whip.
Perhaps it was because most of the dwarves who saw the exploration team were mid-to-high-level physics professionals, so the time and space magic used by the drow priest was at least an A-level skill comparable to the seven-ring spell. In other words, this is a quasi-forbidden spell with reduced attack range and duration.
This kind of magic is the nemesis of physical melee occupations. Most of the time, magic skills can only be used to counter it. Whether to exceed the duration of the spell, or use a powerful magic skill to interrupt the frequency of the time-space magic, other than that, other methods have little effect.
There was nothing wrong with Romon's choice, but the magic power was still a little lacking.
If the other members of the exploration team can cooperate tacitly and use a few attack skills that don't interfere with each other, it will almost be enough to break the magic of time and space. But at this time, everyone was unstable, and the few who could use magic skills couldn't cooperate with Pyroblast.
Similar to female priests, Hill, Elistine, etc., although they can also use their own spells, they are easy to interfere with each other, and the power of magic may be even smaller.
What's more, besides Rand, no one else can foresee that Pyroblast can't counteract the magic of time and space. They don't have Rand's high fire element sensing ability.
Thinking of this, Rand glanced at Gilliam behind him and Weiss with the corner of his eye. Seeing the hesitant look on the old dwarf's face, he immediately made a choice.
Gilliam is a legendary powerhouse. Although he is a physics professional, if he goes all out, he will definitely be able to crack the magic of time and space. Only in this way, the drow priest will notice him immediately, and it will be difficult to catch him by surprise in the next battle.
These two drow priests were very difficult to deal with, and a single time and space magic made them burnt out. If one is not dealt with first, a lot of people will definitely die when the scuffle breaks out later. Obviously, now is not the time for the old dwarf to make a move.
The next moment, Lande Ping stretched out his hands, facing Yan Zhu, and pulled back like holding a basketball. Yanzhu seemed to have received some inexplicable guidance, and the originally straight track actually took a bend and shot towards him.
However, because the phagocytic suction of the snake head still exists, the pillar of flame just circled into a C shape, turned around in front of Rand, and ran towards the snake head again.
It's just that for Rand, this is enough. When the pillar of flame passed in front of him, Rand puffed his cheeks, and spit out a red fire ball from his mouth, which instantly melted into the pillar of flame.
The shape of this glass ball-sized fire bead was very similar to the "highly concentrated fire element core" that Qin Lun had given to Rand, but it was much smaller in size. The "Highly Concentrated Fire Element Core" that Qin Lun bought from the Three-tailed Kite Club is actually one of the Zoroastrian belief totems.
The bronze statue of Ahura Mazda that Rand once obtained in the Hunter World is the supreme god of Zoroastrianism, and it is also the core of his current second-tier career "Lava Head".
However, the bronze statue of Ahura Mazda is not an apostle item. It was absorbed into Rand's body and became a part of the body of the law.
Rand was able to condense lava balls out of thin air, relying on this part of the law. And the belief totem, which looks like the core of the fire element, can condense the fire element energy that can be used for A+ level skills every three natural days.
Of course, being able to condense so much energy doesn't mean that Rand can cast A+ level fire magic. After he got this totem of faith, he also integrated it into the body of the law and became one of the symbols of the law. This symbol in his body can increase part of the power of the lava ball and speed up the casting speed.
If Rand condenses the fire bead symbol of the totem of faith separately, then the fused lava ball has almost reached the A-level skill.
It's just that Rand usually doesn't do this. Because it is necessary to condense the law symbols and control the lava ball, the casting time is too long, the mana consumption is too large, and the skill cooling time is too long.
However, at this time, Mage Romon had already used the powerful Pyroblast technique, so he only needed to condense the fire bead symbol of the totem of faith, which greatly saved mana consumption and casting time.
After fused with the fire beads, the pillar of flame suddenly expanded and contracted, as if a heart was throbbing inside him. The ferocious dragon head emerged from the drop-shaped top that was originally moving at high speed, and fiery red scales were also exposed on the surface of the flame pillar. Two three-toed dragon claws grew out from the front, and it turned into a snake-like flame that shook its head and tail in an instant. dragon.
When Yanlong came to the snake's head, its body had grown to half the size of the snake's head, and its body was covered with a layer of fiery red glass-like dragon scales. From the outside, one could faintly see the blazing flames tumbling inside its body.
A-level fire control technique - Flame Dragon of the Lava Head!
"Boom!" After Yanlong collided with the Snake Prime Minister, a dazzling flash made everyone close their eyes involuntarily.
The shock wave after the explosion almost knocked everyone in the arena out. Since Yanlong attacked the snake's head from the bottom up, the upward explosion was the most powerful. It pierced through the conical dome of the labyrinth hall almost instantly, countless broken stones fell down, and the center of the venue was completely shrouded in dust and mist.
After Rand was blown away by the explosion shock wave, and when he was controlling the Flame Dragon, his mind was exhausted, and he couldn't even climb up for a while.
However, he was not worried about being attacked by the enemy. Although he didn't know the situation on the other side, he believed that the drow priest would not feel good either. After all, this was a strong confrontation between two A-level skills.
"Good job!" When Rand fell to the ground, a voice as thin as an ant whispered in his ear, but when he turned around, he didn't see anyone.
"Ah..." Just as the dust and mist were churning, a high-pitched scream suddenly came from the opposite side, which was full of uncontrollable fear and despair.
"Hahaha!" Accompanied by this scream, clanging fights and Gilliam's hearty laughter came out of the dust mist.
The old dwarf's sneak attack succeeded! All members of the exploration team immediately had an exciting idea. Under such circumstances, only Gilliam, a legendary warrior, could ignore the blast wave and advance instead.
No matter how powerful the drow priest's magic is, if he is attacked by a violent man like Gilliam at close range, he will die or be disabled if he goes down with three axes.
"Aw... Aw..." Gilliam's successful sneak attack boosted the morale of the dwarves, and they all raised their axes and charged towards the opposite side of the dust and mist.
The apostles were more cautious. Qin Lun and Hill guarded Rand's side vigilantly, and Weiss and others did not rush forward immediately. On the contrary, the two beauties, Elistine and Idriya, did not give in to their men. One turned into a giant bear, and the other pounced on it with a saber that looked like a door panel.
When the dust and mist cleared, the situation on the opposite side finally came into the vision of the apostles.
Among the two drow priests, the younger drow priest had his body broken in two and his intestines flowed all over the floor. He should have been cut in half by Gilliam. She opened her eyes wide, but the pupils were no longer in focus, and it was obvious that she was dying.
The other old drow priest was forced back again and again by Gilliam, and for a while, he couldn't spare his hand to cast divine spells. As for the remaining drow warriors and spider elves, they were also entangled by the dwarves, and the battle was in full swing.
In this originally unpredictable battle, the balance of victory and defeat is beginning to tilt towards the dwarf exploration team.
Weiss and the others looked at each other and smiled, their moods were greatly relaxed, and they each rushed forward with smiles on their faces. This kind of good thing that can not only increase the task contribution, but also be equivalent to picking up a bargain, they are not far behind.
"I'm much better, let's go too!" Rand finally stood up with support, but his face was still as pale as paper.
"Stop them!" The drow priest glanced at the audience, his eyes flickering. While avoiding Gilliam's attack, he raised his staff, and the magic that had been stored in the staff was instantly released. A blood-red light wave emerged out of thin air, covering all members of the party.
Stimulated by the blood-red light waves, the remaining spider elves went berserk instantly, and began to attack the surroundings indiscriminately. The drow warriors, with blind eyes, actually left behind the fighting enemies and collectively attacked Gilliam, who was entangled with the drow priest.
The old dwarf was taken aback, and reluctantly gave up chasing the drow priest, and jumped out of the ring.
However, the drow priest who got rid of Gilliam's entanglement did not launch a counterattack as everyone imagined. With eyes full of resentment, she glanced at the two defected elves in the rear portal, and chanted a divine command in a low voice.
After the tongue-twisting divine command was over, an elliptical space-time portal opened in front of the drow priest. The drow priest didn't even look at the spider elves and drow warriors who were still fighting, and directly stepped into the portal.
