[The 'Great Sage Osborne' smiled and avoided your help, struggling to step forward to unlock the defense magic array on the cabinet door...]
Lin Xun was about to take down the sage before him when he suddenly realized something was off.
The storeroom was protected by a magic array, and possessing the character key could at most grant entry through the main door but not open the individual defense magic array on the storage cabinets.
Among the sage's collection were items capable of resolving coordinates, necessitating the sage's presence to unlock the defenses. It also made sense for him to retrieve the items from his collection.
However, no matter how you looked at it, the sage was a demigod-level figure. Even if Mage's bodies were fragile and easy to push over, even in the situation where the blue bars were almost depleted, it didn't make sense for him to be stumbling and falling while walking, right?
