Chapter 909 Invaders
"Echo? What Echo?"
Dick knew that the words Zatanna spoke were different from his understanding. It was obvious that what she was saying was magic-related jargon.
"Emm…" Zatanna considered for a moment and said.
"It's a kind of Magic. Simply put, it's using Magic to create your own Projection Clone. In our industry, there are many names for it, but the Zatara Family likes to call it 'Echo'. It's a relatively advanced Magic."
"Depending on the caster's skill in Magic, the created Clones are also different. An ordinary Magician can create a Projection that can't move, which is already quite good. However, with Mr. Kent's skill, the intelligence of his Clone must be quite high."
While explaining, Zatanna led everyone along the Carpet, towards the interior of the Tower of Fate. Wally suddenly noticed something: the Tower didn't look this big from the outside.
When Wally observed it from the outside, this cylindrical ancient Tower was estimated to be less than ten people holding hands to encircle it, smaller than a small Lighthouse, at most the size of a watchtower.
However, you should know that just now when Robin and Zatanna were chatting, they didn't stop walking. This five minutes or so is enough for an Ordinary person to walk back and forth five or six times on the second floor of the Tower.
But since entering the Tower of Fate, they have been walking in a straight line. Not to mention the end, they haven't even seen the stairs leading to the second floor.
"That's strange." Zatanna muttered. It turned out that Wally wasn't the only one who felt strange.
"Logically speaking, after we entered the Tower of Fate, whether to resist the Enemy or welcome a Guest, Mr. Kent's Echo should have appeared already. It's been five minutes, why is there still no movement?"
"Is this situation uncommon?"
This time, the one who made the Opening was Habby. He was also very curious about unknown Knowledge, and maybe he could find Intelligence related to Mr. Kent based on this Clue.
"Not common." Zatanna shook her head. "Generally speaking, there are only three situations where this kind of Thing happens."
"First, the caster hasn't maintained the Projection for a long time, leading to a mistake in the Magic."
"Second, the Items bound to the Projection are damaged, which leads to all the Magic bound to them becoming ineffective."
"Third, the Projection is doing something according to a pre-Setting Program, leading to it being unable to get away."
Robin asked further, "Based on your Experience, which possibility is more likely?"
"Let me consider carefully." Zatanna rested her Chin on her Right Hand, pondered for a while before starting to speculate.
"Let's talk about the first Situation first. The Time Mr. Kent disappeared hasn't exceeded three days, which is 72 hours. Normally speaking, Magic of this Level wouldn't fail in such a short Time, so let's temporarily rule out this possibility."
While Zatanna was speaking, she extended the Index Finger of her Left Hand and scribbled in the Air. In the next second, a Purple Energy lit up on her Finger, and Zatanna was actually writing in the Air.
"The second one is also unlikely. After all, Mr. Kent's Projection is bound to the Tower of Fate. This Building is not comparable to ordinary Magic Items. Even the Lord of the Fallen wouldn't think of destroying it easily. Moreover, we are in the Tower now. If the Tower was really broken, we would have had an Event already."
Zatanna raised her head and said with a firm Gaze, "In my opinion, the third possibility is greater. The Projection is obviously entangled in some Business, so it has no Time to care about us?"
"Based on the above points, I speculate that there might be Powerful external Enemies inside or outside the Tower."
"That's really a wonderful reasoning."
As soon as Zatanna's Words fell, a sharp Teenager voice suddenly drilled into everyone's Ears. The Children turned their heads and then realized that three Figures had appeared Behind them at some point.
These three people were not unfamiliar Faces. Even the more outgoing Wally could call out all of their Names. That's right, they were the Wizard Boy trio: Klarion, Abra, and Kent Nelson.
"Mr. Kent!" Zatanna saw the Old Man in Shackles at first glance, and then noticed Klarion and Abra standing on both sides.
"It seems that Everything is right in front of us." Robin quickly drew three Batarangs, and a drop of cold sweat quietly slipped from his Forehead.
As a famous encyclopedia in the Team, if even Wally could call out the other party's Name, how could Robin not know the detailed Information about these two people?
What's more, there is also Klarion, a very terrifying Enemy.
It was mentioned before that the reason Doctor Fate is Powerful is because Behind him stands Nabu, the Lord of Order who represents the Order of the Cosmos.
The Powerful Nabu represents Order, so in the vast Cosmos, where there is Order, there will be Chaos, and Klarion is the representative of the Lord of Chaos. His Strength is comparable to Nabu.
Klarion is an opponent that even the Justice League needs to mobilize a large amount of Power to deal with. Now, for them to deal with him, it's no longer a question of whether it's strenuous or not.
Oh, and there's also Abra. This person is nothing special. He's just a Time-Space Stowaway who smuggled from the Future to the modern era. Although this person often calls himself a Magician, he actually doesn't understand Magic at all.
Abra's Magic all comes from the High-Tech Device he brought back from the Future. In short, he is the Charlatan that Wally mentioned.
Of course, Robin wasn't talking to himself in his Heart about the above Information. He transmitted this Information to all Members of the Team through Habby's Mind Link, so that they could have a simple Understanding of the Enemies in front of them, so as not to be completely clueless when dealing with them.
Others don't know, but this is very helpful for Habby. After all, there are too many Parallel Universes in the American Comics World. The Setting of the same Character in different Universes is not completely the same. If he uses his own Understanding to deal with these people, he is likely to suffer losses.
For example, Abra. In the Comics, he didn't know Magic at first, but later Abra sold his Soul in the DC Big Event "Hell Unleashed" and exchanged it for True Magic from the Demon Lord.
This exchange made Abra jump from a second- or third-rate Villain to a first-rate Villain who can dominate Big Events. You can even find his Figure in many Big Events.
For example, in Big Events such as "Hell Unleashed" and "Flash", you can see his Shadow.
Moreover, Abra has another Characteristic, which is that just like Joker is obsessed with playing Games with Batman, Abra also has his own object of obsession, and that person is Flash.
Abra's object of obsession is not the second-generation Flash Barry Allen, but the third-generation Flash Wally West.
