Chapter 2657 Patching

Chapter 2657  Patching

Fang Heng furrowed his brows and clicked his tongue in frustration, reluctantly sheathing the great holy sword.

The Deep Sea Abyssal Demon relied on its special ability to hide within the dimensional seal space. Although it had just severely injured the enemy, it was helpless against it and unable to pursue.

Commander Leonidas and his Holy Court team had been barely holding on, and now, with the crisis momentarily averted, they finally couldn't keep going any longer. One by one, they collapsed to the ground, gasping for breath, each of them feeling the relief of having escaped death.

Commander Leonidas, accompanied by two attendants, walked forward and bowed to Fang Heng, "Thank you for your help."

"You're welcome."

The captain of the accompanying squad, seeing this, introduced to Fang Heng, "Fang Heng, this is our Holy Paladin team commander, Leonidas. And this is Fang Heng. He has accepted the trial of the Great Sage from the Holy Realm and came here to undergo some, uh... trials. I happened to run into him when I was returning, and it was with his help that we were able to escape and rush here for the rescue..."

Leonidas paused at the mention of the Great Sage trial, then took a second, more scrutinizing look at Fang Heng.

No wonder this young man was so powerful—it turned out he was a competitor in the Great Sage's trial!

"Ah, so you are one of the candidates of the Great Sage's trial. Once again, thank you for your timely intervention."

"No need to thank me," Fang Heng replied, sheathing the great holy sword. He nodded slightly and said, "Due to the nature of the Great Sage trial, I ask that you refrain from spreading news about my involvement."

"Understood." Leonidas turned to his subordinates, who were resting in the background. "You all heard that. Any details about Mr. Fang Bai must not be leaked to the outside."

"Yes!"

Fang Heng knew his identity would be exposed sooner or later.

It wasn't a big issue; the important thing was to achieve his goals before that happened.

[Hint: The player has temporarily repelled the Deep Sea Abyssal Demon- thousand-eyed eel. The player has earned 5,000 mission contribution points.]

[Hint: The player has successfully rescued Commander Leonidas and his Holy Court team, with a team survival rate of 60%. The player has earned 30,000 mission contribution points. The player's favorability rating with Commander Leonidas has increased, as well as with the Holy Court fortresses.]

Yan Yuexin was greatly surprised when she saw the two game prompts flashing on the screen.

With just this, the mission was already more than halfway completed.

She looked up again and saw Fang Heng in deep discussion with Commander Leonidas, walking toward the damaged seal in the front.

Leonidas was explaining the current situation to Fang Heng.

"The Deep Sea Abyssal Demon likely escaped from this broken seal. As you can see, the seal is almost destroyed, and the dimensional space barrier here is weak, making it a breach for the dimensional monsters."

Meanwhile, two sealing art scholars, who had accompanied them, examined the seal's damaged point carefully. One of them stepped forward and reported, "Sir, the remaining strength of the seal can hold for a while, but it urgently needs to be repaired. With our current strength, we cannot complete it. We will need Lord Ron to personally come and reinforce the seal to completely resolve this issue."

Leonidas's expression darkened as he listened.

"We've already sent people to find Lord Ron. However, he is occupied with another important matter, so he likely cannot attend to this right now. Our team will stay here to prevent any more dimensional monsters from appearing, but we must come up with another temporary solution. Try to seal it for now."

The two sealing art scholars exchanged glances, their faces showing a hint of bitterness.

This was going to be difficult.

This level of seal was something they were not capable of handling at the moment.

There was no choice; since Leonidas had given the order, the sealing scholars could only stand by and meditate, hoping for some new insight.

Fang Heng stood before the seal, looking up at it while deep in thought.

Yan Yuexin noticed that Fang Heng had been staring at the damaged seal for a long time without speaking. She walked up to him and quietly asked, "Fang Bai, what's wrong? Did you find something special?"

"Mm."

Fang Heng withdrew his gaze from the seal and nodded, explaining, "This seal was created by an elite sealing art master. However, the spatial rift itself has a strong corrosive effect, and combined with the repeated and intense spatial fluctuations over time, it has caused the seal to gradually break down."

Upon hearing their conversation, Leonidas turned to look at them, his expression curious, "Fang Bai, you also understand sealing art?"

"Mm, the trial I underwent as part of the Great Sage's test involved sealing art. I came here this time to seek help from High Priest Ron," Fang Heng replied.

Leonidas's eyes brightened at this, and he asked, "Do you have a way to help us repair the seal?"

"No, sealing art is not a simple patch job," Fang Heng said, shaking his head. "I've observed it just now. It's impossible to reinforce the magic array on its original foundation."

Leonidas's face darkened at this.

Fang Heng continued, "The only way to fix this now is to completely destroy the original seal and then reestablish it from scratch. Commander Leonidas, I'll need your team's assistance."

What?

Leonidas was stunned for a moment, then quickly came to his senses. He stared at Fang Heng and confirmed, "Are you saying you want to attempt to re-seal this barrier region?"

He nervously swallowed and glanced at the two sealing art scholars in his team before looking back at Fang Heng, "Are you sure you can do it?"

The two sealing art scholars also cast skeptical glances at Fang Heng.

Both of them were high-level sealing experts hired by the Holy Court from other worlds to assist in strengthening the seal.

It was said that they had reached the peak of master-level sealing art.

If even they couldn't do it...

And Fang Heng looked so young.

It was hard to believe.

Fang Heng nodded, "I came here specifically for a task related to sealing."

"Alright! Then I'll leave it to you, Mr. Fang Bai," Leonidas responded without hesitation, immediately signaling for his team to stand up and prepare to assist Fang Heng.

"Mr. Fang Bai, what do you need us to do?"

"Stand guard on the side," Fang Heng instructed. "While we undo the original seal, the Deep Sea Abyssal Demon might try to escape. I need your help to prevent it from fleeing. I'll finish sealing it as quickly as possible."

At the mention of facing the Deep Sea Abyssal Demon again, the team immediately tensed.

"Understood."

Leonidas nodded firmly and turned to his subordinates, "The damaged seal won't hold for long, and we'll have to face the Deep Sea Abyssal Demon again. With Mr. Fang Bai's help, this is our best chance to solve the problem once and for all. Stay alert!"

"Yes, sir!"

Under their watchful gazes, Fang Heng took a rune out of his backpack.

Whoosh!

With a light tap of his toes on the ground, Fang Heng swiftly leaped towards the broken seal above, holding the rune paper in his hand.

At the sight of his movements, the two sealing art scholars' expressions changed instantly.

The rune paper he was holding!

It was a demigod-level sealing rune!
