In the sixth month of Hilbert's retreat, the chaos in the Tower of Black Mystery was completely wiped out by the return of the three tower masters.
Hill underground was also completely immersed... If it was as he thought, one of these three, or even more than one of them, might have a very close connection with the world.
The Heinalson family will eventually enter the territory of the Black Mystery Tower. Maybe it will really be the last effort of the world's will.
This is not surprising. If the world is really saved by the mages in the end, does the Son of the World participate in it? Even if the Son of the World does not play a big role in it, it will make a big difference to the world itself.
The will of the world, speaking of it, is just the feedback of some kind of group consciousness. Unless there is a master of the world who is almost integrated with the will, he will not care about his silence for a period of time or even his death. As long as the world still exists, he will always appear. of.
Even if it finally fell into the control of Styx, so to speak. Whether it is Gilbert or Russell, as long as they carry the destiny of this world, the will of this world will always reunite again... Styx is not hell, what he controls is only the deviation of the law, but he Not interfering with the natural workings of a world.
The will of the world does not care whether its own attributes will change. Anyway, even if the law that favors death prevails, it does not mean that there is no new life in this world.
Styx also requires a complete reincarnation. Hell is different. Whether it is an abyss or a hell, the world that falls into their hands will either be completely destroyed, or it will be directly transformed into a certain layer of hell or part of the abyss plane.
Therefore, Hill is not surprised that there is a child of the world at the key point he found...it is strange that there is not.
But he originally thought that the key point of destiny brought by the Heinalson family was the Tower of Theia. But now he has a new realization: the Tower of Black Mystery may be more critical.
Therefore, he decided to temporarily suppress his presence to a minimum and attract the attention of a certain archmage who must be very sensitive.
Especially when Aislin is bound to tell everything about the recent events. If Root is really as deeply connected to the law as he thinks...then he must understand the special nature of the Heinalson family.
Then Hill can understand why he attaches too much importance to Gilbert. Otherwise, he really couldn't figure out why Root's emphasis on Gilbert would make the two eighth-ring mage students a little afraid.
Such Root must understand very well why Russell is so smart and capable, and why Gilbert takes such careful precautions.
But being full of doubts about his surroundings, he will definitely pay close attention to what's happening on Gilbert's side to see if anything goes wrong, especially when Gilbert shows that he has suddenly improved so much in formation strength... Scott... If Hill could feel Rommel's specialness, Root would definitely know it too.
Gee, no wonder he has been spying on Gilbert so much. Although he has the luck of this world, Gilbert, whose spiritual sea is in shock and who has been in seclusion for a long time, is indeed very suitable to be replaced... Although the reason why Hill likes him is because he is the only one suitable for soul trading with him. Although he has a good status in the magic tower, outsiders probably value his situation more.
However, Hill could now understand why such a powerful mage was so paranoid.
Whoever it is, if he has such an important thing hidden in his heart and knows that the enemy's eyes are always close to him, he will definitely feel like he is in danger.
After taking another look at the magic tower above, Hill decided to leave everything to Russell to deal with on his own, completely closing all contact with the outside world.
"Teacher, a lot of things have happened recently... That's about it..." Aislin reported in detail everything she had done during this period, and even made it clear about Gilbert's plot.
She knew very well that if it succeeded, there might be some things that could be ignored, but if it failed...especially if it was aimed at one's own people, it would still be the failure of one's own people who could speak in front of Root. Instead of waiting for the opponent to be in trouble, It's better to tell the truth yourself.
At least the facts won't be exaggerated. Root didn't expect his students to be harmonious anyway.
"Do you know where you went wrong? Aislin." Archmage Lute asked with a smile while sitting on the high platform.
He was wearing a black robe, with a cyan bottom robe exposed from the crossed collar. The outer robe was also embroidered with delicate patterns using silver-cyan filaments.
But if you look carefully, you can see that the pattern is actually the leaves of black taro. In this world, only the robes worn by mages above the eighth level will have embroidery on them, but usually they will use some plant patterns that have died out or are only found in magic gardens.
Therefore, it doesn't seem too surprising that Lute, who has black taro leaf patterns embroidered on his robes, has always been considered the most awkward mage.
Aisling pursed her lips... Of course she didn't think that Root was asking her to accuse her of why she wanted to attack Gilbert.
Her teacher must have known exactly what she was thinking when she did this, and he would never think there was anything wrong with her approach of excluding dissidents and attacking future competitors.
"I shouldn't have killed Russell because he was young and Gilbert was in a hurry to retreat, so I didn't study and understand the child's character." She thought for a while and admitted with some difficulty.
"No." Root shook his head.
"Why are you kid still like this? What does it mean to you to avoid the most important things in front of me?" He raised his chin: "Your biggest mistake is that you always want to achieve multiple goals with one thing. How is that possible? You can't deal with it. But they are all mages. Even if they have character flaws, they definitely don’t have intelligence. Therefore, before doing anything, you must think about who you really want to deal with. Do you really want to cause civil strife in Camanteta? , or you want to make Gilbert lose the ability to compete with you. What kind of self-confidence makes you think that you can do two things at the same time? Look, now you have made a mistake, right? Nunnally and Rolando couldn't see your deal, but Camanteta couldn't. No, Scott Rommel behind Pruitt probably also saw it. Otherwise...how could he deal with Leith with such fanfare? A little guy Brat, the status in his eyes is not worth trading for Pruitt! What he wants has always been you." Aislin's eyes widened violently.
"Look, this is the result of your greed." Root shook his head.
"You don't think Gilbert can cause you much trouble in the future, so you dare to deal with him like this. But in Scott Rommel's heart, all he needs is a medium. If he deals with you, he can use Gil Bert's hand, or rather, made you mistakenly think that it was Gilbert who attacked you, would you immediately doubt Gilbert?" Aisling couldn't help but freeze... She would definitely doubt it.
