Abyss Domination – Chapter 411

Chapter 14: Teleportation Spell

After such a long time, Gloria finally stabilized the Teleportation Array connected to the Shadow Plane, opening a barrier that allowed free passage in and out, while also being able to close the teleportation channel at any moment. The area around the portal was filled with magical alarm traps, making it difficult even for Legendary Professionists to infiltrate silently. Exploring the Shadow Plane was a time-consuming task, as neither Soren nor Gloria could take down the Wizard Tower. Even if they joined forces, defeating the guards at the first level of the Wizard Tower would not be guaranteed.

Three Diamond Golems, one Arcane Construct Life, and a powerful Tower Spirit responsible for operating the Wizard Tower.

Before leaving, Soren had one final preparation.

That was the memory spell ‘Teleportation’, for which Gloria had arranged a teleportation beacon in Modo City. As long as Soren learned the five-ring Teleportation Spell, he could traverse thousands of miles back here.

This was the greatest convenience for spellcasters!

Unfortunately, mastering the Teleportation Spell was quite challenging; Soren might even need to practice it on the way.

There was no other way.

The spells a wizard needed to learn were too numerous, and their difficulty was exceptionally high; given his talent, he was already progressing quite quickly.

With the setup of the portal complete, Soren finally returned to the Shadow Plane.

However, this time there were more people coming; it wasn’t just Soren, Vivian, and Gloria, but also the Fallen Witch Corinna, who had extensive knowledge of the Arcane Empire period, often surpassing Gloria in certain aspects.

“This is!!”

Gloria had been here before but had not approached. However, it was Corinna’s first time visiting, so when she saw the Wizard Tower before her and the massive Maze covering the area, she exclaimed in shock, “What a powerful Maze! It’s probably even stronger than the one in the Northern Region! But its power has already waned. Many parts have not been activated!”

Soren remained silent.

In this regard, the two orthodox witches had more say!

“You truly are the variable of fate.”

The eyes of the Fallen Witch lit up with what seemed like a surge of hope as she murmured, “Perhaps there is something I’m looking for here! If I don’t have to go to the clockwork rebirth of the mechanical mirror, then I can…”

At this point, she paused and frowned slightly, saying, “The Wizard Tower is still operational.”

“Although the energy consumption is severe.”

“But I can feel that the Maze is still supplying energy to the Element Pool; this Wizard Tower has maintained its operation for so many years. There must be a Tower Spirit responsible for its maintenance inside.”

The group approached the outskirts of the Maze.

Soren had an excellent memory, guiding them along the same route they took last time through the Maze toward the Wizard Tower.

“Alarm!”

“Alarm!”

However, as they had just approached the range of the Wizard Tower, a series of mechanical synthesized sounds rang out: “Intruder detected! Intruder detected! Combat Readiness Status activated!…”

“Charge the Guardian Golems!”

Not good!

Soren’s face changed instantly, and he said in a low voice, “Fall back! It’s dangerous here!”

As soon as he finished speaking, a rumbling sound echoed, and then three enormous Diamond Golems appeared, locking their targets onto them. They quickly charged over.

“Retreat!”

Soren leaped back, and the others followed him. The resistance of the Diamond Golems was extremely high; even a Legendary Spell thrown at them might not be enough to severely harm them, making close combat even more difficult.

Such top-tier golems were not found even in Gloria’s Wizard Tower.

“This won’t work.”

As they withdrew from the range of the Maze, the Fallen Witch said solemnly, “The first level of defense is this strong; we can’t possibly enter. A Wizard Tower of this level must contain a half-plane. There are likely countless dangers inside; even the Eye of the North might not survive going in.”

“We must find a way to cut off its energy supply!”

Upon saying this, Gloria and her mother couldn’t help but look toward the Maze. The Maze was not just a large defensive facility; it also maintained part of the energy supply. The energy consumed by the fully operational Wizard Tower was immense—equivalent to needing at least a nuclear power plant to sustain it. Therefore, the Maze, as a defensive facility, also bore part of the energy consumption of the Wizard Tower. As long as the Wizard Tower was still operational, even a Legendary team might not survive entering it.

“Is there a way to cut off its energy supply?”

Gloria gently brushed her long hair back and turned to look at her mother, who was particularly knowledgeable about the Arcane Empire among those present.

The Fallen Witch furrowed her brow slightly, surveying the massive Maze before her and slowly said, “It’s difficult! But it can be tried; however, we must decipher this ancient Maze.”

“This might take a long time!”

“As long as there are no wizards controlling it, the Wizard Tower will operate according to its original pre-set program. The Tower Spirit should not have control over the Maze. So, we have a fifty percent chance of breaking this Maze.”

This exploration ultimately returned empty-handed. The Diamond Golems and the Tower Spirit formed a solid defensive line. Soren might barely be able to deal with one Diamond Golem, but if all three attacked at once, even a Legendary Warrior wouldn’t last more than a round.

To explore this Wizard Tower, they must cut off its energy supply. The fully operational Wizard Tower was too terrifying; recklessly entering would be risking their lives.

As long as the energy supply was cut off, the Guardian Golems wouldn’t be able to function.

The defense system inside the Wizard Tower would automatically be deactivated, and it would rely solely on the energy stored in the Element Pool, which would at most maintain a portion of the defense program. The technology from the Arcane Empire had a high demand for energy; it was similar to modern technology—without electricity and fuel, many things became mere decorations.

At that time, the difficulty of exploration would drop dramatically!

Soren had no impulse to take risks with ruins of such challenge difficulty above Legendary.

Because past bloody experiences told him not to underestimate anything related to the Arcane Empire.

So everything had to be planned over the long term.

Gloria and the others were responsible for unraveling the Maze and cutting off the Wizard Tower’s energy attacks, while Soren prepared to set off in search of the other three Element Crystals.

If he could gather them, not only could he obtain a piece of Divinity Fragments, but he could also summon the ‘Element Legion’ to replace warriors as expendable cannon fodder during the exploration of the Wizard Tower.

Thus, in mid-March, Soren set out on the road to the Northern Region.

This time, he would cross the Northern Region, flying over the sprawling mountains to enter the Frozen Kingdom. He had memorized the teleportation beacon; as long as he mastered the five-ring ‘Teleportation Spell’ on the way, he could return to the Overseas Islands at any time.

This was the convenience of spellcasters!
