Scepter of Truth

Chapter 52: Disaster Overture

Views:

Victor, who was under "house arrest" in the Tower of Babel, did not know that his attack caused a turmoil in Greenland.

"Have you heard? Lord Victor was assassinated by the Temple of Eternity, and now he is unconscious!"

"You are too outdated! According to the news I got, Mr. Victor has vomited blood and died..."

"Unexpectedly, a cardinal sneaked into the floating island. This is too dangerous!"

"No, the mages and arcanists below the high level are all panicked... I don't know who will be attacked next?"

"Yes! Greenland is no longer safe now!!"

"It shouldn't happen anymore, right? The guys from the Ministry of Internal Affairs have all been dispatched and patrolled all day, and now they can be seen in every area of Skysity."

"Ministry of Internal Affairs? How many people are there in the Ministry of Internal Affairs? If we meet the cardinal, we will be like Mr. Victor... There is no hope of surviving!"

"We also have a legendary mage in the Magic Society! The adults will find out that cardinal..."

"hehe!"

"What do you mean?"

"What do you mean? You are too naive! Do you think that Cardinal Church was easily found? For so many years, Greenland still has no idea how many temple lurkers are there!"

"It's really scary to think carefully..."

"Oh! Anyway, the Academy has lost another arcane genius. Let us mourn the passing away of Your Excellency Victor for a while..."

"Eh? Who said Mr. Victor was dead? I saw him at the'Spell Training Center' in the Tower of Babel just now!"

"What? Which news is true? Whom should I believe?"

"..."

Due to the blockade of the information by the Magic Society, the wizards of Greenland have different opinions and panic about the assassination of Victor. When people learned that there was a cardinal and more temple spies lurking on the island, this negative emotion was magnified a hundred times, a thousand times...

Under the instigation of some interested people, a turmoil, or a crisis of confidence broke out.

Groups of mage apprentices and groups of low-level mages gathered in the "Arcane Light" square in front of the Tower of Babel to seek explanation.

Until this time, the senior management of the Magic Society realized the seriousness of the situation.

In the conference hall on the ninetieth floor of the Tower of Babel, an emergency meeting is underway.

"You all talk about it, how do you explain it to these mages?"

The legendary master Grant looked at the members of the council with a gloomy expression.

"Open the details of this incident!" A director said indifferently: "As long as the Magic Society shows a certain degree of sincerity, I believe these wizards will understand..."

"Are you here to be funny?"

Felton's roar echoed in the conference hall once again, "Don't you see it, this is a conspiracy against the Magic Society! If it weren't for you guys, how could the Society fall to this situation? …"

"Your Excellency Felton, your words are too intense, right? Without the strong support of the major mage families, the Magic Society would have been torn apart!"

"I think the board should be reorganized!"

"Seconded!"

"Seconded!"

"Seconded!"

"..."

Several great arcane masters did not expect that the major mage families would join forces to attack the palace at this critical time.

"What if we oppose this suggestion?" Sleeper's tutor Dick asked in a gloomy voice: "Aren't you guys afraid that I will trouble you afterwards?"

Sixteen board members sneered, one of them, Astor Sissel, the patriarch of the Sissel family, replied blankly: "... We have mastered the core control of'Skecity' Terminal..."

"Do you think that if you master the Floating City, you can make terms with us?"

Elemental Master Winnie Murphy’s body was surrounded by silver lightning, and a thunderstorm seemed to be brewing in her eyes.

Facing the power of the legendary mage, Astor Sissel and the others changed slightly.

"If you adults don't want to see the fall of'Skasiti' and the destruction of the Magic Society, I think the conditions we put forward are acceptable..."

Silence, suffocating silence.

"I want to ask a question..."

The alchemist Valentin Brook broke this silent atmosphere. He pointed to the mages in front of the Tower of Babel and asked, "Did you do this turmoil?"

The directors looked at each other and nodded their heads to admit this fact.

"Let them go away!"

Grant pursed his lips, "As long as the Magic Society can continue to inherit, we can accept your proposal..."

Hearing the retreat of the president of the Magic Society, the director members of the major mage families showed a relieved smile, they were right! The great arcanists didn't have too much desire for power, and their only pursuit... was the inquiry into the truth.

"As you wish! As long as a few adults stick to the promise, everything will be fine..."

Just as the two parties reached a consensus and the transfer of power was about to be carried out, strong psychic fluctuations erupted in all directions of the floating city. The dark blue ** magic rune array that enveloped the city suddenly shattered, and bursts of sacred singing sounded in "Skye". "Xiti" sounded above!

"All honor belongs to my lord!"

"The truth is eternal! My lord is eternal!"

"Exterminate heretics!!"

"kill!!!"

"..."

The brilliance produced by the magical technique when it was cast, one after another in the floating city, the screaming and killing sound resounded throughout the entire "Skasiti".

"What's the matter? Haven't you already mastered the core control terminal of Skysity?"

Felton, Eye of the Stars, let out an almost crazy growl, "Damn it! This is all a good thing you did!!"

The 16 directors representing the mage family were all pale, and they were caught off guard by this sudden change.

"Now is not the time to argue!"

At this moment of crisis, Grant exuded the power of the legendary ruler, and his calm words pointed the way for everyone.

"This is no longer a turbulent event... The invasion of the temple means that the war has begun!!"

"Feelton, Dick, you immediately summon people to take back the core control terminal of'Skasiti'..."

"Winnie, you take people to the semi-plane warehouse to guard and distribute war preparations..."

"Valentin, go to the 100th floor of the Tower of Babel..."

"And you!"

Grant pointed to the board members, "Notify their respective mage families... From now on, the Magic Society will enter a state of war!!"
