Breaking into the palace

In the game, Beta was certainly not as good as Roland, the best Mage on the server, in terms of actual magic usage and creativity. But in terms of pure magic theory, he was better than anyone else.

He could analyze the principles behind any spell or magic array just by looking at it for a while, quickly find the magic nodes, crack them, and learn them.

So any spell was no secret in front of Beta. Even divine spells were the same. However, divine spells had to be performed with the power of a god, so he couldn't use divine spells if he wasn't a god he believed in. This was a problem with the rules, and he didn't have the ability to break them yet.

Beta ran outside the city wall and soon found a weak spot in the shell of the magic array.

In fact, it wasn't too accurate to say that it was a weak spot; it should be said that the magic power was slightly uneven.

The range of a magic array was too large, and the amount of magic in the magic shell couldn't be the same everywhere. For example, if the magic array in front of him had an average hardness of a hundred, then the value at different points would be roughly different, about 90 to 110 randomly. What Beta had to do was find places with a hardness of more than 90, which were the relatively weak spots of the magic array.

The pouring rain was annoying, and the magic array was open again, so there were no soldiers patrolling the city wall. Betta took out almost all the magic scrolls from his Mystra's Mansion and piled them together at the edge of the city wall like a hill.

Then, at a great speed, he dodged far away.

About half a minute later, one of the magic scrolls that was timed to break was activated, and then it caused all the magic scrolls to explode.

Although each magic scroll wasn't of a high level, there were enough of them … Quantitative change could completely lead to qualitative change.

Flames and lightning danced together, ice and darkness swirled, and at least three hundred magic scrolls detonated at the same time, causing an extremely terrible chain reaction.

Everything within twenty meters of the explosion was torn to powder in an instant, and then there was a violent explosion, and the powerful magic mixed with the shock wave rushed at the nearby raindrops like sharp arrows.

Then, countless spells spread out from the explosion point, like fireworks exploding in the sky, extremely beautiful, but also extremely fatal.

The defensive shell of the magic array was bombarded by a large number of spells, and its entire appearance was immediately revealed. A huge purple egg-shaped shield enveloped the entire kingdom, and under the bombardment of a large number of spells, cracks first appeared at the corner of the shield. Then, the cracks grew larger and denser, and the sound of cracking glass could be heard.

A few seconds later, the entire magic shield shattered into countless crystal fragments, which quickly turned back into magic elements and dissipated in the air.

The magic array had temporarily lost its effectiveness … but it was only temporary.

The essence of a magic array could be regarded as a mental instrument. If it received an impact that exceeded its upper limit at a critical moment, it would cause a negative chain reaction.

Beta threw out most of the magic scrolls he had accumulated, and countless spells burst out at the same time. The power caused was comparable to that of a top spell cast by a Legendary-level Mage.

Moreover, the magic array in the palace wasn't particularly powerful. At least from Betta's point of view, he would be able to make it better if he created it himself. That was because the magic shell of the magic array was too uneven in terms of mana protection, which would affect the actual defensive ability of the defensive magic array.

All in all, under the impact of so many magic scrolls, the magic array temporarily lost its effectiveness. To put it simply, it was in a state of short-circuiting.

As soon as the magic array lost its effectiveness, Beta used Lightening Spell and climbed up the wall effortlessly.

There were no patrols on the wall. For the Sand Nation people, this exaggerated rainstorm was the first time they had encountered a terrible natural disaster in their lives. Even Professionals were afraid, not to mention normal people.

When Beta leaped onto the city wall, the urgent bell finally rang.

Beta turned his head and saw that Shirley and the other two had already climbed up the wall not far away. He nodded at them from afar.

Although they were separated by a thick curtain of rain, Shirley seemed to have sensed Beta's gaze. She turned her head and gently smiled in Beta's direction.

Seeing Shirley's movement, Emma also looked over. However, she was different from Shirley. She couldn't sense Beta's aura, so she felt a little discouraged.

Now was not the time to waste. The enemy's magic array could recover at any time. Beta slightly bent his body and jumped down from the wall.

Although his speed was not as fast as a Thief of the same level, and his physique was not as good as a Warrior of the same level, both were by no means weak. Combined with Unquenchable Rage, when he ran at full speed, his speed was very fast. When he landed on the ground, he galloped through the heavy curtain of rain, leaving behind a trail of white raindrops.

Because of the heavy rain, the originally hard ground had become very soft and slippery. The soldiers of the royal palace were not used to it, so they didn't come out to patrol. They rested in their own encampment.

Although the alarm bell had already rung, they didn't have the time to return to their posts.

Beta, on the other hand, arrived at the main entrance of the palace without any obstructions. At the same time, Shirley and the others also arrived at the immortal palace.

A gigantic fireball smashed open the gate of the palace. Betta rushed in, only to be met by two guards whose faces were covered in dust. Although they were horrified, they still charged at him with their shields.

Beta didn't slow down at all. He threw out two magic scrolls, and light blue plasma spread to the ground in front of him. Soon, it wrapped around the bodies of the two guards. Although they were twitching all over, they hadn't completely lost the ability to stand.

In any case, they were more determined to approach Beta.

Anti-magic armor … Although Beta had already expected this, he was still a little impressed by how rich the royal family of Sunland was. The two guards were only level 5 and 6, but they were wearing anti-magic armor. It had to be known that anti-magic armor had to be made with gold, and a set was not cheap.

If even the two guards were wearing anti-magic armor, then the elites of the royal family definitely wouldn't be any worse off.

The two guards approached with angry expressions. In their minds, this black-clothed and masked intruder in front of them was obviously a spellcaster. They were wearing anti-magic armor, so as long as they could get close, they would definitely be able to capture this spellcaster.

Unfortunately, Beta was a Divine Noble, a hybrid class.

He rushed at the two guards at an even faster speed. Under their incredulous gazes, the Emperor Fall Sword suddenly appeared and instantly slashed their necks through the gaps in their armor.

Blood spurted out. When the two guards fell to the ground, Beta had already rushed past them and was already more than ten meters away.

In terms of level, attributes, and battle experience, he crushed them in all aspects.

After killing the two guards, Beta rushed into the palace and saw a hidden sentry on the second floor. A frightened face was hidden behind the observation hole, and a sharp and mournful whistle sounded throughout the palace.

The sentry was hidden behind a thick wall, and Beta could have blown it open with magic scrolls. However, he didn't do so. Instead, he climbed to the second floor from the staircase and went straight to the bedroom in the palace.

When he reached the second floor, Beta flicked out a gold coin. Before it landed, it magically turned into a gorgeous Knight at least two meters tall in golden armor, holding a golden greatsword, and wearing a long red cloak.

The Knight's face was hidden in a tight helmet. As soon as the Knight appeared, he rushed to the front at an extremely fast speed.

Beta followed behind and stuck several magic scrolls on the golden armored Knight.

Lightness! Toughening and Sight Shifting!

The first two buff spells directly increased the strength of the golden armored Knight by about 20%, and the last one was a different kind of support spell that could make people unconsciously ignore Beta's existence.

The golden armored Knight was in the front, running on the corridor on the second floor at an extremely fast speed. Every step he took covered nearly ten meters. When he stepped on the ground, there was a loud thud, and the collision of the metal armor and the ground could be felt in the distance.

The sirens became more and more urgent, rising and falling. More and more palace guards surrounded them from all directions with torches.

However, the golden armored Knight was charging at the front. As he ran, he could easily send two or three guards flying with a light wave. Moreover, he focused on the guards with the torches.

Although the golden armored Knight was a summoned creature, its strength was linked to the summoner himself. Besides, Beta had also buffed him, so he was completely unstoppable at this moment.

Beta followed behind the golden armored Knight. Nobody noticed him at all. Or rather, even if somebody noticed him, they wouldn't pay much attention to him.

After all, a two-meter-tall, heavily armored Knight with a greatsword was too eye-catching.

Beta, on the other hand, was relatively "petite," and dressed in black, so nobody paid attention to him for the time being.

The golden armored Knight moved forward quickly like a heavy tank. Wherever he passed, blood and flesh splattered. However, when he approached the bedchamber, he was blocked.

In front of him, a black-armored Warrior who was as tall as the Knight but held a huge shield firmly blocked the entrance to the bedchamber.

The master warrior... finally appeared!
