Chapter 178: Just the last step

Views:

After failing to track down the dark elf, he killed the demon and found Elena's true whereabouts. Link bid farewell to the reluctant Enolie, and returned to the academy to report to Verola about the demon and Lordel.

Verola took it very seriously and immediately reported the matter to the dean. The dean was shocked when he heard it. It is said that the crystal wine glasses in his hand fell to the ground and broke.

The security level of the entire academy was already very high, but at this time, Shengsheng raised it a bit, and also upgraded the magic tower of the academy's hub.

It is completely in a state of facing an enemy.

This level of emphasis made Link feel a little more at ease. In the following days, he charged the prophet Baishi every day, while continuing to learn magic, and enriching his strength as much as possible.

He has a practical goal of minimizing the cast time of the 6th-level magic Hand of Titan. Although this level 6 magic is extremely powerful, even with the help of the system, Link needs 5 seconds to cast the spell, and its actual combat value is very low.

This is the embarrassment of the magician. The level of magic is getting higher and higher, and it is becoming more and more complicated. Although the power is geometrically improved, the casting time is also greatly increased.

In the case of a solo duel, the higher the level, the smaller the advantage a magician has over other professionals. This situation will not be improved until the legendary level.

Now, Link can shorten one second or one second, even if it is 0.1 second, it is good.

On this side, East Valley Academy of Magic fell into a temporary calm.

On the other side, the dark elf Lodel escaped from danger and escaped from Link's pursuit. He also had lingering fears and dared not stay in the Gwent Forest any longer. He sneaked back to the north all the way day and night.

About half a month later, Rodel finally returned to the Kuroshio Lake.

This is the core area of the Black Forest. Although the Royal Army of the Norton Kingdom has been attacking fiercely recently, their forward army is at least 800 kilometers away from here, so this place is still very safe.

After walking around the lake for more than half a mile, a pier appeared in front of it. There was no boatman on the pier, but several wooden boats were parked.

Walking on a wooden boat casually, Lodel's toes lightly tapped on the magic circle at the bottom of the boat, mana energy poured in, and the water magic circle engraved on the bottom of the boat was triggered.

Like an arrow, the small wooden boat shot out of the pier quickly and steadily, heading towards the lake center island in the middle of Kuroshio Lake.

There is a magic tower on the island in the middle of the lake, called Holden Tower, which belongs to his mentor, Duke Emmons.

His mentor is a level 7 great magician, second only to the speaker in the Silver Moon Council. This time, the powerful demon who accompanied him to the south to meet the saint was summoned by his mentor himself.

Twenty minutes later, Rodell stepped onto the island in the middle of the lake. The island was densely forested and shrouded in mist, and shadows walking around could be vaguely seen. These were tower guards, all demonic creatures summoned by the instructor. At level 3 to 4, it has at least three times the combat power of ordinary soldiers of the same level.

Lodel took out his wand, and after inputting the magic energy, a faint purple light appeared on the wand. This is the marking magic. Under this magic, these demonic creatures will not attack him.

Walking forward without any risk, about ten minutes later, a tall tower like a castle appeared in front of Loder's eyes. The tower was surrounded by a large circle of tall city walls. At the gate of the city wall, a four-meter-high The demon stood still.

Not only is this demon tall, but its whole body is covered with a thick black cuticle. There are almost no gaps in its body. There is a knife-shaped horn growing out of its head. giant sword.

This is the demon Brutan, whose strength is as high as the peak of level 7. He is the most powerful demon summoned by the instructor. He has the terrifying combat power to almost crush all fighters in the entire Ferroman world!

Loder saluted the demon respectfully: "Dear Brutan, I want to see my mentor."

The devil's huge head was slightly lowered, and a deep voice came from his chest, with a hint of disdain: "Little boy, didn't you take that kid Nobi to the south? Where is Nobi? Why didn't I see him? Where is he?" went?"

"Nobby has had a misfortune, and I'm about to report it to my mentor."

"What? Nobby was killed? Who did it? Although the little thing is a little funny, it's not something you lowly mortals can easily kill. Tell me who did it!" Staring closely at Lodel, the blood in his eyes was jumping, like two groups of burning flames.

Rodel felt a solid oppressive force pressing down on him, and it was difficult for him to breathe, but he still tried his best to remain calm: "Dear Brutan, I want to see my mentor."

At this moment, a calm voice came from inside the magic tower: "Brutan, let him in."

Upon hearing this voice, Brutan's aura immediately disappeared, he muttered a few words, and obediently stepped aside.

Lodel heaved a sigh of relief, and walked in through the gate. When he reached the city wall, dark elves of the same race finally appeared in front of him. Some of these were his senior brothers, and some were servants in the tower. This made him feel relaxed after crossing the demon guard all the way. many.

When one of the magicians saw Lodel, he pointed to the corridor and said, "The mentor is waiting for you on the rooftop, go quickly."

"How's the instructor feeling?" Lodel asked in a low voice.

"I can't tell, it's good or bad." The magician said softly.

"Oh, thank you very much." Lodel made up his mind.

He went up the smooth gray steps and walked more than ten laps before he arrived at the roof of Horton Tower. With the hood, the situation within dozens of kilometers around the entire Horton Tower is brought closer to the eyes, and the details are clearly displayed.

On the side of the roof, an old man in a gray robe stood with his hands behind his back. He didn't turn around when he heard the movement behind him, and said in a faint voice: "In my dream, the dark lady (Rose Queen of the Spider) brought me a message, she said Your act of killing Elena made the southern crown very dissatisfied."

The dark lady, the crowned lady in the south, is a great existence at the level of gods. A mortal dissatisfied with a god is definitely not happy news for mortals.

However, there was no panic on Rodell's face. He explained calmly: "The situation forced me to kill her. If I don't kill her, she will fall into the hands of East Valley Magic Academy. I'm afraid I will be even more unhappy."

"Yeah." Emmons nodded and turned around, showing an old face full of deep wrinkles. The most special thing about this face is his eyes, which are gray and white, and the pupils are ashen. blind.

"Nobby's strength isn't too weak, who killed him?" Emmons asked.

"At that time, I was in a hurry to escape, but fortunately there was a torrential rain. When I finally escaped, I glanced at him from a distance, and I felt that it should be that person." Louder said.

There is no need to specify the name and specific image. As Lodel's mentor, he already knew who his disciple was talking about when he heard this sentence. He said: "You have dealt with him this time, what do you think? ?”

Thinking back to the fight in the forest, the corners of his eyes twitched a few times. He lowered his head and said, "I'm far from his opponent in a head-on confrontation. I'm confident that I can deal with him. For one thing, I am very far from him."

"Tell me." Emmons' voice remained calm.

"This person is not only very strong himself, but also gathers a powerful force around him. I have investigated, and I found that he has friends or partners in the academy, mercenary group, MI3, and business circles. It also includes a level 6 master of mystical magic, and there are even cryptic rumors that he may know Princess Celine, who seems to be very kind to him. He seems to have no prejudice or arrogance as a magician at all , he can always see the strengths in the other party, and can always easily gain the trust of others. This is the most terrifying thing about him."

Originally, this plan was very secretive, and Ligu Village was extremely remote. Originally, Nobby was just chasing and killing a mysterious master of magic who came to peep, but in the end, this guy actually brought back a big killer.

Can you imagine an orthodox magician from Eastvale College mingling with a witch who studies occult magic and even knows a little bit of black magic? Who will believe this? But it just happened!

This made Lodel feel that the other party had countless power tentacles, as long as he entered the Gwent Forest, he would accidentally bump into his hands.

This is really hard to guard against.

After hearing this, Emmons fell into a long silence. It took more than ten minutes before he spoke again: "The Dark Lady once told me that the Lord of Radiance has found a new electorate in the mortal world. Originally, I thought it was nothing more than It was a small thing, just another Bryant, but now it looks like it's a lot more serious than I thought it would be."

Bryant, a legendary magician of the human race, mortals only know his legendary name and look up to his endless glory, but in the eyes of the world's top figures, the reason why Bryant can be extraordinary and become a legend is one aspect of his extraordinary talent On the other hand, it is God's favor.

Bryant is the last electorate of the Lord of Radiance.

However, Bryant is strong, but his personality is a bit withdrawn, and he is still an out-and-out lover. He has been entangled with a high elf woman all his life, and even made an angry act .

Such a person can be used as a deterrent force in the glorious world, and it is also an excellent material to be recorded in epics and sung by others, but he does not know how to gather strength. No matter how strong such a person is, if he wants to turn the world around, it is still far from enough Yes, one legendary demon Taruvis was enough for him.

But now, this new voter is a little bit extraordinary.

Lordel asked: "Teacher, what should we do then?"

Emmons shook his head: "This person must be dealt with seriously, but things must be prioritized and dealt with one by one. The most important thing at present is to severely damage the Norton Kingdom's Northward Legion!"

Loudell was startled, and hurriedly said: "Teacher, are you going to activate the artifact?"

Emmons nodded, and his gray eyes turned to the crystal light curtain beside him: "The time is almost ripe, and the only step left is East Valley College."

Once the East Valley was broken, the interior of the Norton Kingdom was lost, and the magic power was immediately reduced by at least 50%. Coupled with the power of the artifact, it was not difficult for the Dark Elves to reverse the situation in one fell swoop.

"Teacher, the Black Moon plan needs to be advanced? But that old fellow in the Tower of Azura may not be ready."

"Hehe, that old guy is just a victim." Emmons chuckled softly.
