Chapter 490 Awakening the Time System, Domineering Time Magic
Chapter 490 Awakening the Time System, Domineering Time Magic
Immediately, the crystal cup floating in the center of the fountain suddenly disappeared, and then Jiang Han's mental world began to expand continuously. If his mental strength hadn't been strong enough, Jiang Han might have fainted from the expansion of his mental world.
Upon closer inspection, a blank area appeared among the originally neatly arranged six star systems. This star system was colorless and transparent, and its existence could not even be detected without careful sensing.
"Time is truly wondrous!" Jiang Han slowly opened his eyes. Having awakened his time-related abilities, he could clearly feel the passage of time and even briefly pause it.
"Time stops!!"
An invisible energy spread outwards from Jiang Han, and everything within a radius of 100 meters froze. The water spraying from the fountain remained suspended in mid-air.
Although the Time Stop spell is only a basic spell, it can freeze everything within a hundred meters of the caster.
Even chaos magic and spatial magic in dimensional magic can freeze time; within this range, only the caster is unaffected by the time stop.
Although the basic time-based magic only has one effect—time stop—the range of time stop will continuously expand as the level increases. The basic level two magic can reach 500 meters, the basic level three magic can expand to 1,000 meters, and the basic level four magic is even more exaggerated, capable of stopping a radius of two kilometers.
This special and domineering magic can even have a miraculous effect in turning the tide of battle in some situations.
While Jiang Han was experimenting with the effect of time pausing, two yellow eyes suddenly opened in the sky above the ancient city ruins.
Those eyes were quietly fixed on Jiang Han in the city. Noticing that another gaze was on him, Jiang Han looked up and met those yellow eyes.
"Hmm? Could this be the Eye of Time and Space?" Before Jiang Han could take a closer look, the pair of yellow eyes disappeared above the ancient city.
Jiang Han's biggest gain from this trip to the ancient city ruins was awakening his time-manipulation ability. Therefore, after those yellow eyes disappeared, Jiang Han went straight to rejoin the others.
The town was only so big, and there was nothing of value to be found if they stayed there any longer. So after everyone reunited, they set off on the road back to Hanmi City. The journey was much calmer than the way there.
When passing through the Gobi Valley, Jiang Han from the Forbidden Moon Stone, who had survived the last time, was too scared to come out, so the return trip took only half the time it took to go there.
After resting in Hammi City for a few days, the group took a flight to Peru's national pavilion—Royal Felipe Castle.
Felipe Castle is located on the coast of Callao in Peru. After the plane landed in Lima, the group did not stay in the city but went directly to the Royal Felipe Castle on the coast of Callao by car.
Royal Felipe Castle sits on the seashore, facing the vast Pacific Ocean. If someone were to look down from the air, they could clearly see that the castle is shaped like a pentagram. However, each point is not a normal pentagram triangle, but rather a special shape resembling the prow of a ship. It is completely surrounded by thick walls, and at the very innermost part is a large castle—Felipe Castle!
Like other island nations, Peru is frequently harassed by sirens. Felipe Castle was originally built to serve as a strategic command center for the west coast of Peru. However, as time went on, more and more mages came here to train their students or hunt sirens, and Felipe Castle gradually evolved into the bustling place it is today.
It's currently the calm season, and Peru's west coast is relatively peaceful. Local news reports haven't mentioned a single thing about the sirens, which is fantastic news for Peru.
When Peru is attacked by sea monsters, several aspects of its economy, including fishing and crop growth, are affected. Therefore, Peru has always prioritized defense.
In contrast, the official governments of countries like China viewed the sirens' attacks as a way to make money from the sea. Although each sirens' attack would cause damage to various aspects of the city, it would also bring them countless marine resources.
Upon arriving at Felipe Castle, the group immediately identified themselves to the guarding mage. After learning their identities, the guarding mage politely led them into the castle.
As soon as we entered the castle, a dark-skinned man greeted us with a smile, appearing very polite.
"Hello, I am the royal mage here, Osto. It's great that you've come to Peru." Osto greeted the National Team members with great enthusiasm.
Ai Jiangtu directly stated their identities, saying, "Hello, we are from the Chinese National Team, and we are here to obtain the National Medal."
"Don't you guys need to rest for a bit?" Osto asked after glancing at everyone.
"No need, we came after we had rested," Ai Jiangtu said.
"Alright, I'll make the arrangements. Please follow me." Osto then led everyone toward the castle's training grounds.
On the way, Osto found a patrolling mage to inform the Peruvian national team that the trial grounds were in the southwest room of the castle. After entering the trial grounds, Osto immediately activated the water barrier.
After the water barrier was activated, a curtain of water enveloped the training ground, making it look like a spacious fountain plaza from the outside.
The Peruvian national team players didn't keep Jiang Han and his group waiting long. A total of nine people arrived, some with dark skin and others with fair skin.
"These are young mages from China. I hope you can perform exceptionally well," Osto said with a smile as he introduced the Peruvian national team players.
"Young mages from China, I really look forward to fighting you!" said a dark-skinned mage with a dreadlocked braid among the Peruvian players.
The latest novel is first published here!
"Yes, I'm also looking forward to it. I really want to know the gap between myself and the world's top geniuses," another black mage said with a grin.
"·····"
These players from the Peruvian National Team were very excited at the moment, but when they actually faced the mages from the Chinese National Team, they finally realized that they had been too overconfident. The two sides were not even on the same level. They were completely outmatched by Guan Yu, Mu Yingting, and Li Kaifeng from the National Team.
Perhaps their strength ranks high in Peru, but they are still far inferior to the genius mages cultivated by the major powers in China. Therefore, the battle with the Peruvian national team members did not waste much time.
After the exchange, Ottos readily handed over the Peruvian national emblem to Ai Jiangtu.
Just when everyone thought their trip to Peru was about to end, a man with a face as black as iron, dressed in the uniform of the Peruvian Ministry of Health, walked in from outside the training ground. Behind him were more than a dozen men and women dressed in the same uniforms.
"What's going on? Why is the Peruvian chief of staff here? Is it to see us off?" Jiang Shaoxu muttered to himself.
"A farewell? You're overthinking it. Trouble might be on its way," Jiang Han said calmly.
