The magicians in Mondelelli Arena were fortunate enough to have a wonderful day. The gluttons answered dozens of questions continuously from evening to late at night, and many people had already recorded two sides of their scrolls.
People suddenly discovered that, aside from the horrific eating habits of gluttons, he was simply impeccable when it came to calling and teaching. Even on the details that many people thought were insignificant, he would patiently emphasize that he would take care of those who were not smart or mentally ill. He is someone who is stuck in a dead end for a while. This is really different from the teachings of many scholars.
Many of them did not intend to embark on the path of specialized summoning. They came here just to further digest the knowledge they had learned and continue to consolidate it. However, after the answers were completed, they subtly became somewhat interested in summoning.
Lu Yu's footsteps did not stop. After bidding farewell to Thorson, he traveled to the core city-states of Sligo, giving lectures and solving puzzles one after another. As people's interest became more and more intense, the news that Noel was safe and sound also followed one after another. It is widely spread due to the emphasis in teaching.
After completing another lecture, Noel sent him a piece of good news. After learning the truth, the rebels led by Prince Vitello were unable to retreat. When the rebellion had become an established fact, they finally chose to separate themselves in place. For a time, the lords on the Sligo border responded like clouds and left the empire one after another.
Noel's goal has been initially achieved.
Messengers all seem to like places where fish and dragons are mixed, and they especially like taverns. This is the case for the person in front of Lu Yu.
The Sligo female messenger disguised as an adventurer smelled of alcohol. If Lu Yu hadn't reacted when he said the connection code given by Noel, he would have really thought that she was an alcoholic.
With a slightly drunken face but bright eyes, the female messenger said quickly: "I am deeply sorry that I cannot salute Your Excellency Glutton."
"It doesn't matter. The caravan is still in Ankana?"
"Here, they have not left since they arrived seventeen days ago. They live on the third floor of the Whale Shark Tavern not far away. It can be preliminarily judged that everyone is disguised. The leader is temporarily unknown. The number is temporarily counted at twenty-one. At present, The ranks of the caravan members cannot be ascertained, and we are afraid of alerting others."
With that said, the female messenger used magic power to send a scroll to Lu Yu's belly from under the table. She picked up the wine bottle and took a sip without leaving a trace. She continued: "Your Majesty does not allow other messengers led by Ankana to assist you. Only Let me know your identity alone, so if you need to arrange it, I may spend a little more time, please understand."
Lu Yu unfolded the photo scroll. It was a structural diagram of the floor where the caravan members were located. This tavern called Whale Shark was built like a small castle, with a masonry structure and luxurious interior, but the access was also relatively complicated.
The messengers in Sligo are so capable in their business, they are not comparable to the rookies in Green Shade Leader.
"Your Excellency Gluttony, can I hear your plan?"
Lu Yu took out the method that he had already confirmed with Sera, and said: "Find a night when the caravan members are concentrated, go in, kill them and leave."
The female messenger coughed violently and sprayed mead all over the floor. Fortunately, such gaffes were very common in taverns. The waiter on the side calmly came over and mopped the floor before walking away.
"If this is such a plan, tonight may be suitable. As far as I know, they will finish dispersing the goods they carry today, and they will definitely gather back in the tavern to make the next decision."
Lu Yu nodded, got up and left.
"Your Excellency Gluttony, don't you need any more help from me?"
"You can't help. If you want to...start rumors of a necromancer appearing in Ankana's territory now."
After Lu Yu left, the female messenger took two more sips of wine before muttering: "Is this the glutton in the rumors?"
…
…
The influence of Vitlow's in-place separatism is spreading to the entire Sligo, and Noel's sister Ankana, who is of the blood of the late emperor, is already uneasy.
Unlike other lords who can cut off at any time and rely on their location and territory accumulation to become independent, the territory given to her by her father is not far from Noel's ruling hub. This was once the fruit of her father's favor, but now it has become a capable The poison that makes her sleepless and sleepless.
No one among the brothers and sisters was convinced by Noel's succession. They didn't understand why their father was so old and comatose that he actually entrusted the empire to a fool who only knew how to eat, drink, have fun, and indulge in excessive sexual activities. What qualities in him deserved his father's appreciation?
Even though the infection and undead incidents were handled far beyond everyone's expectations, Ankana and others still believe that the control behind them is the result of the control of the Quiet Ones. As the will of the empire, their power is enough to secretly reverse the consequences of Noel's absurd actions. consequences and make the situation develop for the better.
Not only that... Noel even suggested that she give up part of her territory to properly resettle the migrating empire refugees, and did not allow her to turn these people into slaves. What followed was that the old nobles who supported her were confiscated one after another. territory.
She didn't like Noel, and she didn't like being told what to do.
"Contrary to what you think, Noel is in trouble and plans have changed."
Ankana was dressed up like a gorgeous butterfly, while the person opposite her covered herself in a gray robe, and the only exposed cheek was cast in some kind of dark magic, making it pitch black.
"Are you going to back down? Although the Theocracy is in chaos, it is temporary. The Glorious Academy is stronger than you think. The first-generation team left behind by Laurend is enough to stabilize the Theocracy for another twenty or thirty years. If that If you can't strike while the iron is hot, and Sligo can't succeed, then your plan is just a fantasy."
The man in gray robe chuckled and said in a sweet and moving voice: "Lord Ankana seems to be more concerned about the implementation of the plan than me. As a bloodline of the four major countries, are you so eager to see that day?"
"We each take what we need."
The man in gray robe just smiled, but did not comment on this sentence. She added: "As long as the Theocracy continues to be xenophobic because of this, the split of Sligo is only a matter of time. Although the sirens of the Three Frost Islands are watching from the sidelines, But it will end sooner or later, and as long as Sligo is not as strong as before, you can take advantage of it. During this period, you should obey Noel, and exposing your dislike prematurely will only make you suffer."
Ankana snorted coldly and lifted her bangs covering her eyebrows: "You don't need to teach me this."
"Now that the situation in Sligo is settled, it's time for us to head to our next destination. I hope that next time we meet, we can really get what we need."
"I won't send it."
Leaving Ankana's mansion from hiding, two figures hiding in the woods were revealed.
"The Nightmare Festival..."
Zhuoyan waved his hand and ordered: "Early tomorrow morning, leave Ankana Territory and continue south to Port Demorris."
"DeMaurice...do you want to go back to the Theocracy?"
Zhuo Yan snorted angrily, and the person who asked the question immediately felt the powerful pressure of magic, and could not move even a finger.
"When did you talk so much? Go ahead and do it."
After the two people left in fear, Zhuo Xiang looked back at Ankana's mansion thoughtfully.
"Over hundreds of years, a group of bedbugs that only suck blood have been raised... It's always been like this all the way. It's really boring. Isn't there anyone or anything that makes people excited?
She yawned hard.
Zhuo Xiang did not return to the Whale Shark Tavern immediately, but wandered around Ankana's territory with great interest. During this period, the hot topic among the people was gluttony. While giving lectures in Sligo, he gained more people than ever before. Hope, but even so, there are still not many serious rumors about him, such as the one she is listening to.
The storyteller was clearly a non-magic person who was not qualified to enter the venue, but he eloquently analyzed the inconsistency between Glutton and Sera's walking pace and concluded that the two seemed to be inseparable, and further deduced that Sera's Chosen God had passed by in the morning light. Unhappily, I finally came to the conclusion that gluttons have two faces.
Zhuoyan laughed. She knew a thing or two about the power of gluttons. It might be fake to eat two sea monsters alive, but it was probably possible to eat one. It is understandable that foreigners have cruel and horrific eating habits. It is normal for such people to live with the Chosen God of Serra. The collision of ideas leads to friction. However, it is obvious that the glutton is here to teach this time. In any case, the focus should not be Summon?
Yes, this is stupid people.
The stupid people she hates the most.
Appreciating the passionate performances of these fools is an indispensable part of walking the Mela.
Zhuo Xiang was immersed in it, listening to the various jokes about gluttons and the details of Noel's bed exercises, watching the ups and downs of the crowd's emotions as the storyteller moved around, and he could see the next second's reaction one by one. face, and the strange laughter that gathered together, Zhuo Xiang also laughed.
Foolish people also have a role in fooling people, for example, to please her.
She threw a silver coin casually and watched the storyteller nod and bow to her. She returned to the Whale Shark Tavern with satisfaction and entered her own room to close her eyes and relax.
Unwilling to accept the rule of the four major nations dominated by the human race, all the major races that have lived in the east of Mela for a long time are taking action. Before the surprise attack on Codezon, all major races were hesitant. Melias went to the four major nations, and for nearly a thousand years, The long-term rule made everyone fear the great power's heritage, but the hard struggle that finally gave up reason in the entanglement resulted in incredible gains.
Just like the old school of thought, the empire of Codezon was actually a shabby house. A huge hole was easily poked out, and the seemingly indestructible defense line was as brittle as sand.
After the overlord dragon of the generation disappeared from Mela, the history of the human race seemed to have ushered in a change.
Under the magic tide, every race has a chance to compete.
After the division of the four major kingdoms, each one relies on its own abilities. This is an invisible rule set by the major races. However, the Nightmare is not optimistic about the effectiveness of this rule. Isn't it as fragile as today's Codezon?
It is necessary to cause greater turmoil in Mera before the honeymoon period of each tribe ends, so that the four major countries will be scattered. Otherwise, the difficulty of invasion by various tribes will still be huge.
She had been thinking about the plan all the time and fell asleep tiredly at some point. When she opened her eyes again, her rich combat experience made her aware of the strange flow of magic in the air.
The chill was spreading, and the magic power fluctuations coming from the first floor began to be undisguised. The extended perception of the turbid nightmare found people falling to the ground one after another. They seemed to have fallen asleep.
The visitor spreading death and ominousness was continuing up the stairs, and the creepy howling made her frown.
"Undead?"
The guest on the second floor who felt something strange fell into a slumber before he could make a sound. The undead spirit continued to move forward without stopping.
Zhuo Xiang quickly released a signal to alert his companions.
"It's scary~~~~~~"
The shrill screams of the evil spirits suddenly became louder, as if they had received clear instructions, and the spirits turned into a hazy mist and filled the corridor, attacking overwhelmingly.
As soon as the members of the business group walked out of the door, they were entangled and wrapped by countless spirits. The chill penetrated into the bone marrow and made it difficult for everyone to move.
"Turbo Nightmare... Sir, help!"
The billowing black mist overflowed from under the turbid gray robe, and the billowing "black mud" shattered the wall, cracked the wooden door and spurted out. Wherever it went, the spirit body split and dissipated into light particles.
In just a few breaths, the business group lost four members, and corpses lay scattered in the corridor and stuck beside the door.
Zhuo Yan saw the figure at the end of the corridor who was also covered in robes.
"Necromancer... no, you should have a companion, otherwise you wouldn't be able to control such a large spirit body when you are far away from the venue." Zhuo Xiang used the black mist as his hand to crush a spirit he caught. "It's not about killing all the way up, but simply putting irrelevant people into coma... What do you want to do?"
The nightmare walked forward confidently, easily sweeping away the screaming spirits along the way, as contentedly as bending down to cut a handful of weeds with a sickle.
"If you are seeking money while harvesting suitable souls, isn't that looking down on people?" Zhuo Xiang raised his hand suddenly, and the black mist condensed into a column, and fiercely hit the Necromancer not far away, making a dull sound. loud noise.
The magic power surged, and the shock wave generated by the collision caused a gust of wind in the corridor, and a humming sound roughly blasted into everyone's ears, like the roar of an evil ghost.
While the members of the business group were shocked by Zhuo Yan's power, she looked solemn.
In the dust of the explosion, a mercury ball rolled out, and there were many crystal clusters wherever it went.
A coffin appeared silently at the end of the corridor behind the members of the business group. Inside the coffin was a dim oil lamp, and a skeleton in black robes walked out slowly, bowing politely to the stunned members of the business group.
The fluctuations caused by the powerful utilization of magic power convinced Zhuo Xiang of his guess.
"Eighth level."
The black shadow smiled and said: "You are also the eighth level."
"Why are you attacking us?"
"Do Necromancers need to ask why they do things?" Black Shadow said contemptuously, "Your souls are very delicious."
"It's not easy to decide the winner in a high-level mage duel. Are you sure you want to make things worse here?" Zhuo Xiang smiled confidently, "Stay away from the place where the bones and spirit bodies are stored. You even need a companion to help you bridge the gap. , the weak necromancy spell can’t even defeat the seventh level, right?”
"You're confident, so why not give it a try?"
The corners of Zhuomeng's mouth raised under the black mist, and he said sternly: "Okay."
In an instant, the turbid nightmare melted into the darkness, and the ink stains disappeared without a trace. Neither sight nor magic perception could capture the way in which she was transferred to the black shadow. It was as if she had taken away everyone present out of thin air. period of time.
The black mist spread out from under the gray robe like a sword, piercing into the black shadow's body fiercely.
Everyone in the business group desperately resisted the skeletons and mercury balls. Seeing this scene, they thought they had a chance to win and the crisis was over.
Zhuo Yan was shocked to find that even if she was close at hand, she could not clearly see the face of the necromancer, but she could vaguely feel that he seemed to be smiling.
Fear spread in her heart, and because of her uneasiness, the black mist on Zhuo Xiang's face collapsed, revealing an expression of disbelief on her face.
"What kind of monster are you!"
In the dark mist that penetrated the black shadow's body, more than a dozen headless horsemen rushed out in a team. The stunned nightmare was hit head-on by the majestic and powerful horse and flew out.
