The Rise of the Cemetery

The high-ranking mage Colon, who had finally made up his mind, took out an ancient magic scroll from his arms. This is the escape scroll specially prepared for him by his big \u0026 mage uncle before the battle, and it can be teleported to a designated place in an instant. The reason why it is not used in the starry sky laboratory is because there is another distant plane space, and this escape scroll will not work at all.

However, before the teleportation, he did not forget to dress himself up, tore his beloved custom-made robe, wiped some bruises and bloodstains on his forehead, and seriously rolled a few times on the ground. Only then crushed the escape scroll in pain, and the whole person disappeared in a dense magical brilliance in an instant.

This scroll was bound early on to a magic stronghold established by the Mage Guild in the upper realm of the underground world. If the underground expeditionary force needs to return this time, it will also be the first stop there.

When the dizziness from the space transmission gradually subsided, Cologne Kestron finally opened his eyes in the magic circle, and the first thing he saw was the magic puppet troops waiting in formation and a dozen or so people who were already in the state of magic waiting to be activated. Shiny wand.

Under the suppression of several big enchantment circles, Cologne even felt a bit difficult to breathe. With his strength as a level 14 high-level mage, it is not bad to be able to exert 30% of his strength now.

"It's me, Cologne Kestron! Quickly remove the binding circle, I have important information to meet with Master Klischke." Cologne waved his arms with difficulty and roared loudly.

It's a pity that his status as a high-level mage is not so useful here. Several magic puppets stepped forward one after another to thoroughly detect the teleportation circle and Luke with wands of different attributes in their hands, and waved after confirming that there were no invisible creatures or parasites. let go.

The huge silent stone door slowly slid open, and Cologne stepped out of the teleportation room with a look of distress, followed by a magic puppet walking through the wide and clean corridor, heading for the central hall of the magic stronghold. From time to time on the way, some mages with the same haggard faces would walk past quickly with their heads bowed. The entire magic stronghold was filled with an atmosphere of doubt, anxiety, and frustration, which fully demonstrated the results of this underground expedition.

Cologne clenched his fists silently. Whether he can pass the test safely depends on his performance for a while. If someone finds out that he has joined the enemy, even if his family is one of the three most powerful families in the Mage Kingdom, he will not be able to save his life.

However, the picture crystal in his hand should be able to make up for the small flaw of his escape alone. After all, when he saw the scene inside for the first time, even the person in Cologne was completely stunned. He didn't believe that there was such a real and fake magic. technology.

This may also be the means for the "master" of the undead to show his strength to frighten himself, and even tie himself to the shackles of the devil's chariot. Once I use this thing to knock on the door and pass the test, I will never be able to escape the hostage of the other party for the rest of my life. But so what? Apart from this method, do I have other ways to explain the reason for living alone?

Since he didn't have one, he would have to embark on this dead end without hesitation.

"I just want to live!" Colon murmured to himself.

The spacious and bright magic hall is already full of red-robed mages. The original 11 huge high-backed crystal armchairs now only hold 8 people, and there are 3 extremely conspicuous vacant ones.

There are more or less high-level mages standing behind every big mage sitting in the chair. Here, high-level mages have no seats at all. As for middle-level mages, they don't even have the qualifications to enter this place.

The faces of the big \u0026 mages who were arguing loudly were ashen, and they lost the mysterious and noble temperament in the past when they waved and drank. Instead, they looked like a group of gamblers who lost their eyes.

Cologne sneaked in through the side door in the corner of the hall, and there was no sound during the whole process, but the roaring roar in the hall disappeared instantly, and the sharp and real eyes of all the big \u0026 mages fell on him at the same time.

There is no need to cast spells, but this kind of gaze infused with the powerful spiritual power of the big \u0026 sorcerer instantly disintegrated the courage that Cologne had just raised, and his whole body was sweating profusely, and he even walked unnaturally.

A big mage sitting on the third chair on the right frowned slightly, and said dissatisfiedly: "Everyone should restrain yourself! Before the whole situation is clarified, there is no need to be so hostile!"

The great elementalist Chrissick sitting in the middle was silent for a moment, then nodded with a solemn expression: "Today's matter must be clarified. Before that, no one is allowed to speak indiscriminately, otherwise..."

Under the gesture of the Great Elementalist Krishick, Cologne cast a grateful glance at the big \u0026 mage uncle who spoke for him, and then forced himself to walk to the center of the magic hall and began to accept the big \u0026 mages. question.

The formal questioning began, but only Master Klischke could speak, and the other masters closed their mouths knowingly.

"You joined the exploration team of Inzahar Grand \u0026 Mage, didn't you?"

"yes!"

"Inzahar Da \u0026 Mage's token of fate is broken, do you know?"

"……Know!"

"How did he die? Who killed him?"

"What I know is not very clear, I only know that the undead and drow jointly did it!"

The questioning paused for a moment, and shock expressions appeared on the faces of several well-informed masters at the same time. The great elementalist also began to lower his head and ponder, obviously digesting this unexpected answer.

"Now you can describe the whole process, describe everything you know!"

Cologne cleared his throat. Excessive nervousness made his mouth dry, but he didn't dare to waste time on such trivial matters as drinking water at this time. The whole story is told. The whole first half is all factual, there is no falsehood, but in the second half, drow accidentally joins the siege with the undead to kill Inzahar the Great \u0026 Mage.

When explaining the reason why he was able to survive, Cologne attributed it to the elemental storm created by Inzahar Da \u0026 Mage's dying blow, blowing himself to a distance and passing out, which was able to delay until the end of the plane coincidence.

When the presentation was about to end, Cologne even broke the news. When he ejected from the superposition of planes, he accidentally landed in a hidden place of a ruin, and was able to witness and film the whole process of the undead's transaction with the drows.

When the content in the picture crystal was projected in the hall, all the great \u0026 mages were outraged. Damn drow bastards, after reaching an agreement with the mage guild, even colluded with the undead to murder their allies.

The contents of the entire photo crystal appear blurred and shaken, showing that the photographer is far away from the other party's transaction location, and his mood is too agitated to grasp the trembling of his hands. There are only some broken and incoherent pictures in the whole video, but some items brought out by the leaders of the two sides in the final transaction still made the big \u0026 mage present frowned.

To be honest, it was just a short-lived picture, but the great elementalist Seaclek took the photo crystal from Cologne's hand and froze it in this picture by himself. Looking at the blurry silhouette of the object hidden in the opponent's palm, every big \u0026 mage felt a sense of trepidation.

Treasures, definitely treasures! Only those top-level treasures impregnated with powerful magical energy can still give people this feeling of energy expansion through the photo crystal.

The Great Elementalist Chrissick turned his head to look at a skinny old man with thinning hair and shriveled cheeks on the left, and said politely: "I'm sorry to trouble you, Master Jindu!"

The skinny old man didn't refuse either, and pulled out a magic crystal ball from his sleeve, murmuring weird spells in his mouth, injecting strange green rays of light into it from time to time. However, as the master Jindu continued to cast spells, the blurry images projected from the photo crystal gradually became clearer, as if a magical hand moved away layer by layer the heavy glass lying in front of everyone's eyes, A moment lost in the long river of history is becoming more and more clearly presented.

In the image, the outlines of the objects in the palms of the leaders of both sides gradually emerged, and as the fragments of broken history were continuously added, some subtle magic lines on them also appeared.

The leaders of the two sides were identified first. One was the mistress of the first family of Kazan Moyes City, Valoja, and the other was a necromancer that had never been seen before. However, the focus of the great mages is not on people, but on the treasures they solemnly took out.

The great elementalist Krishick frowned tightly. These two treasures were extraordinary at first glance, and their styles were also extremely weird. They gave him a familiar feeling, as if he had appreciated them in a certain historical book. But which one is it?

While he was desperately trying to recall, a high-pitched and shrill voice in the hall surprised everyone. Finally someone recognized the origin of these two treasures, and shouted out some key words, some heart-pounding key words.

"Dragon Heart" "Dragon Blood Vial"

The great \u0026 mages present are all outstanding mages with profound knowledge. In addition, they have a special understanding of the past history of the Arcane Empire, so the history and efficacy of these two top-level treasures were quickly found out from the depths of memory. And slowly flowed through my heart, the more I think about it, the more frightened I become, and the more I think about it, the more afraid I become.

It turned out to be these 2 things!

These two treasures can only be used as powerful magic props in the hands of individuals, but if they fall into the hands of a large force, their hidden value can be fully tapped, turning them into important weapons comparable to divine weapons.

Relying on the blessing of the Spider Goddess, the drow has become the well-deserved overlord and ruler of the middle and upper layers of the Underdark, but this race also has a huge flaw, that is, the race lacks powerful meat shields. These problems were temporarily solved by them enslaving other powerful fighting races, but flaws are flaws, you can cover them up, but you can't make them disappear completely.

The drow army is not durable. Once the cannon fodder slaves are exhausted, the flaws of the elite members in their team will undoubtedly be exposed. Therefore, they rely more on the city to fight, and never stay away from the city they belong to, so that they can replenish the consumption of cannon fodder in real time.
