Chapter 381 Second Continental War (4)
Verde swallowed dry saliva.
The owner of the Magic Tower who cannot find his whereabouts.
Wizards scattered on the floor.
And the menacing presence of Edwin Hector warned that things had gone terribly wrong.
‘If I tell the truth, I will die.’
It was certain.
It was a warning from instinct.
According to the original plan, he was going to figure out the situation and silence him, but Verde tried to hide his expression and responded that he did not know why.
“… What does that mean? I’ve only been running for a month after a report that a problem has occurred, but I don’t know enough to explain something. Rather, Prince Edwin Hector should explain. Where the hell is the Lord of the Tower and why did you attack the wizards in the sky? If you don’t explain properly, I can’t just let this happen.”
like he said.
It was a situation that needed clarification.
As the wizards surrounded themselves with stiff expressions, Edwin Hector looked around nonchalantly and said,
“It’s so strange. Why did Master, who usually didn’t hide our conversations between the two of us, blocked the conversation from leaking out with Silence Magic today? Why did the wizards of the sky stop Butler from checking the office, and why do you, who came running after hearing the news, try to organize the situation as if making excuses rather than being angry when you found the bodies?”
“Don’t sell me out with useless speculation.”
“It’s a very unfortunate situation to be speculation. So I thought of this hypothesis. You are one with the lord of the magic tower in the sky. There is no way that the existence of the Sub-Tab Master, who takes the place of the Mage Tower Master, would not know the truth of the sky under the control of Cronus. But what is the reason you rushed to run with only some wizards? It’s not just because of unexpected variables. If this leaks out, it must mean problems you can’t handle.”
short time.
Edwin Hector grasped the situation.
I drew a picture in my head with only fragmentary information.
“The Magic Tower in the Sky is a group formed by wizards who came to hear of the continent’s best reputation. It would be impossible to subjugate all of them to mind control, so some people like you must have maintained the power of the Mage Tower while hiding the truth. Verde. I think you ran out of gas for that reason. What do you think? Do you still think my words are absurd and useless speculation?”
The atmosphere was chilly and frozen.
It was just a hypothesis.
A story of nothing but nonsense.
However, Verde, who was pointed out, was unable to properly respond to the moment when the accident stopped.
instant reaction.
“You look like you’ve found out the truth.”
Edwin Hector laughed.
The hypothesis was true.
The Magic Tower in the Sky hid the truth in order to grow its power, and no one knew the truth except for a few wizards who ran after Verde.
So I had to hurry.
If Edwin Hector reveals the secret of the sky, the tower he has worked so hard to build will collapse.
A sense of tension lingered.
That moment.
Breaking through the silence, Verde raised her magic power.
“Attack now… !”
Flash.
Will not fall out.
I was blind.
Verde, who had lost her sight for a moment, showed a stunned expression without even finishing the magic.
“Chain Lightning.”
Edwin Hector with a raised finger.
In the space he pointed to, the wizards who were trying to fulfill Verde’s orders lay charred and collapsed.
* * *
Chain Lightning.
It’s a 3 circle magic.
It was at a level that the wizards of the sky could react enough to, but no one noticed that the magic was manifesting.
It was fast and powerful.
The magicians who were electrocuted by the chain lightning to such an extent that it was hard to believe that it was a 3rd circle magic met their deaths without any resistance.
“… .”
I’m speechless.
Verde’s eyes wavered.
As far as he knew, Edwin Hector was a 5th Circle mage, but the power he showed now was absolutely not.
‘In order to use chain lightning with this much power, it may be at least 6 circles or more.’
Confusion ensued.
It was unbelievable.
Moment.
An ominous imagination arose.
Perhaps the reason why the Magic Tower of the Sky disappeared was because of Edwin Hector.
“Bind Butler Verde.”
“yes.”
I never thought of resisting.
Edwin Hector’s overwhelming magical power left Verde captivated and imprisoned.
head hit the floor Even while his arms were tied, he couldn’t hide his confused feelings.
It was as he expected.
spirit world.
Edwin Hector, who had a fierce battle there, exploded the darkness and absorbed the magical power of the master of the magic tower in the sky.
The amount of horsepower was vast.
It went beyond the acceptable level of five circles and was dangerous enough to cause convulsions in the scene Butler had witnessed.
at that time.
The top battle showed strength.
The passage leading to the upper section opened and accepted mana, and as the upper section and circle cycled, all mana began to be absorbed.
It was truly a miracle.
As time passed, the five circles became bigger and harder than normal standards, and as if that wasn’t enough, a new circle was born.
around the heart.
Seven rings were created.
People said that what Edwin Hector lacked was years, not talent.
however.
By absorbing the mana of the master of the magic tower in the sky, he made up for the lacking part.
It was a variable that even Roman Dmitri did not expect, and Edwin Hector achieved rapid growth in the short time Verde came running.
tat tat tat.
“What is this!”
“Edwin Hector! Release the sub-top lord!”
Hearing the commotion, the wizards flocked.
They couldn’t help but be embarrassed.
In the eyes of the wizards who did not know the truth, it looked as if Edwin Hector had captured the butler and slaughtered the wizards of the sky.
It was an expected situation.
Knowing how he would be portrayed, Edwin Hector held Verde hostage before the other mages arrived.
Sorcerers flocked.
In a situation where they were showing hostile spirit, Edwin Hector said with a face that did not lose his composure.
“From now on, I will show you the truth. image memory.”
head.
He materialized the memories he experienced directly.
“It must be questionable for you. What the hell is this? What the hell have I done to you, whom I have served as your teacher?”
The lord of the heavenly mage.
It was his voice.
People’s faces were stained with bewilderment.
His remarks to Edwin Hector revealed the ugly truth, and the mages who had just been hostile to them looked confused.
From then on, no explanation was necessary.
The memory that the image memory tells is the truth of the sky. It perfectly proved the obvious reason for arresting Verde.
yet.
memory was retrieved.
Edwin Hector said, looking at the people who had lost their way.
“This is the reason I attacked the sky wizards, and this is the truth of the sky that you did not know. The lord of the magic tower in the sky was the dog of Cronus. On the outside, he pretended to be for the wizards, blaming the Cronos Empire, the mastermind behind the disappearance of the wizards, but he satiated his own desires by devouring the circle of talented wizards.”
The gaze was focused.
people were angry
“Tiangong lost its way. But if you want to face the truth and right the wrongs… … .”
Crisis was an opportunity.
Edwin Hector.
reversed the situation.
“Follow me. I will show you a new way.”
Two days before the invasion of Valhalla.
An unexpected variable occurred in Hector Kingdom.
* * *
The next day.
Unlike the kingdom of Hector, which passed through the hardships, a hell of abjection unfolded on the border of Umberto.
Quaang!
Kurrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr.
The wall collapsed.
He installed layers of magic defense in preparation for today, but there was no way to withstand the explosive magic attacks of the Cronus Empire.
The walls collapsed within a few hours of the attack.
Hundreds of thousands of troops rushed into the castle and from then on, Umberto’s soldiers had no choice but to face the situation of dying countless times.
“Stop the enemies… Whoops!”
“Aww.”
Screams were heard from all sides.
Everywhere I looked, there was no hopeful sight.
Once pierced, there was no way to stop the flames of death from spreading throughout.
“Hold on to the end! If this place is pierced, there is no hope for Umberto Kingdom.”
hooked
Kwajik!
Calderon Drake.
He raised an aura and cut enemies.
Already drenched in blood, he showed no signs of backing down even as he faced countless enemies.
I was going to die on the spot.
He knew very well that Umberto would collapse like a sandcastle, starting with the foremost defensive position, if Umberto’s number one barrier was breached so futilely.
Kwalung.
Qurrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr.
raised an aura
As he cut down the knight of Kronos who was rampaging inside, he asked as if urging his subordinates.
“Any reinforcements?”
“It seems impossible to have enough reinforcements to turn the situation around. As the riots in the lawless zone became serious, the ankles of the punitive troops sent there were tied up, and as Valhalla sent troops near the Frankish border, Frank and Redford were also preparing for a decisive battle with Valhalla. Even in the midst of that, they said they would send troops, but it is impossible to stop Cronos’ large army with that alone.”
“damn!”
distorted his expression.
It was stifling.
A new Kingdom Alliance is created.
Calderon Drake saw the future.
In this system following Roman Dmitri, I thought I could at least create a country worthy of a country, but the power of the empire that dominated the continent for a long time was too strong.
I wanted to buy time somehow with Umberto’s power.
Time for Roman Dmitri to leave Valhalla’s territory.
At least at this time when the Empire revealed its ambitions, I wanted to show that even if it wasn’t Dmitri, the kingdom union was not easy.
but.
There was no reversal.
The truth was obvious.
If it had been possible with their own strength from the beginning, the kingdom union would not have been so desperate.
Pooh.
slashed the enemy
And then.
“Contact Dmitri right away. If you don’t send reinforcements, Umberto can’t hold out any longer.”
It felt like grabbing at least a straw.
Unlike the flimsy expectations.
a few minutes later.
Calderon Drake heard a devastating report that even Dmitri was under attack from Kronos.
* * *
It was a familiar picture.
Beyond the walls of Dmitry.
Space was distorted, and Cronus’ soldiers, led by Mystique, appeared.
“… Kronos is a really scary country.”
above the castle wall.
Knight Commander Jonathan swallowed dryly.
The continent turned upside down.
The Cronus Empire attacked Umberto and Cairo at the same time, and sent troops separately to Dmitri even after mobilizing over a million troops.
In addition, this time, the astonishing sight of moving countless troops without a warp gate made them feel once again who they were fighting against.
but.
Dmitri wasn’t just playing all this time either.
work of the day.
left with scars
Countless people died on the day Dmitri was attacked, and figures like Henderson risked their lives to protect him.
From then on, Dmitri was fully prepared.
If the same situation happens, so that the result is different from then. Even if Roman Dmitry is not there, so that nothing will happen to Dmitry. Everyone, led by Jonathan Knight Commander, has been putting in a lot of effort.
said to the lieutenant.
“Are you ready for Mercury?”
“All done.”
“Tell the soldiers. We are not simply defending ourselves to endure. I will crush the enemies who dared attack Dmitri and avenge the past. Dmitri will prove to the world that this is no land to be trampled on.”
“I will pass it on verbatim.”
He showed determination in his eyes.
this much.
took a step
Knight Commander Jonathan ordered each of them to their assigned positions, but there was one object that bothered him.
“Ares. Can I ask you one question?”
“Tell me.”
Ares.
A new figure emerging as Dmitri’s second-in-command.
People believed him.
Even if there is no Roman Dmitri, because Ares is there, even if a strong enemy appears, it can be blocked.
“This is not where Ares-nim was assigned. I obviously asked you to take charge of the top of the right wall, but why are you there near the gate? And above all… … .”
a few days ago.
Haomen’s Lucas warned.
Variables in case you don’t know.
“Is it really because you’re simply tired that you didn’t follow Master Roman Dmitri to Valhalla?”
to Valhalla.
Ares is excluded.
It’s not the other way around.
He said he would stay with Dmitri because his mission in Valhalla was difficult.
Remarks by Knight Commander Jonathan.
Moment.
“… The nuance of the words sounds quite dangerous. Is it my mistake?”
Ares looked at Knight Commander Jonathan with a cold expression.
