"I am inconvenienced by my identity. I think you also don't want the news about our presence here to spread. Therefore, it is presumptuous to come in."
In a gloomy voice, three black figures slowly appeared in the corner of the cave.
They are all wearing black robes and hoods.
The person speaking was the person in the middle, just like Start and Samantha. This person's face was also covered by a faint mist, and only the magic aura flowing in his eyes could penetrate.
The two people on the left and right are different. Isaac's dark vision can penetrate the shadow of the hood and see their faces.
Although they did not use the iconic long-handled spear, a few black and white stripes still fully showed their identity.
Isaac said nothing, but continued to look at the people on his left and right with this gaze.
After a moment, the person in the middle nodded to one of them.
I saw this man's facial expression distorted, and a shadow tore from his body, as if roaring silently, full of unwillingness, and separated from his body.
Aido's unique profession, Shadow Walker!
There is absolutely no problem with my identity.
Only then did Isaac's signature peaceful and friendly smile appear on his face: "I have understood Samantha's message that everyone is in the same camp, and my position is of course biased towards you. However, I
My friends, you must also know that I still need to continue learning magic from 'that teacher'..."
"Deng Luo is not alone in learning magic. In 'The Devourer of Glory, Courage and Nobility', under the glory of the great Shadow God, the magical achievements of the Council of Elders have even stepped beyond the plane itself. There is an elder
I admire your pursuit of magic very much, and under the honor of His Highness, any mage who is interested in the study of magic will be able to obtain the key to his treasure house of knowledge."
At the shadow priest's voice, Isaac's eyes moved slightly, first with a look of yearning, then quickly with regret, and slowly shook his head: "We green dragons have always been the most beloved children of the Great Dragon Queen."
He naturally understood what the so-called "Your Highness's glory" meant. It was better to stay away from the ancient evil whose nature was not even clear. Moreover, after all, he was also the child of the Dragon Queen. How could he not believe in his own boss?
Turn to believe in the words of those whose origins are unknown.
It's not like he has never seen the precedent of a black dragon being bound by an oath.
However, the Council of Elders, stepping out of the plane itself...the abilities of these shadow mages sound quite powerful. I wonder if there are legendary levels hidden deep inside.
Although he failed to convince, the shadow priest had no trouble in his eyes. If the five-color dragon could easily believe in any god, then it would not be a five-color dragon.
In a gloomy voice, he continued: "Then let's change the way. The elders have said that if you give up there, the Council of Elders can also provide you with some magic information. If you stand on our side, then in stages, we
We will continue to provide you with research materials at all levels."
As expected, it came!
The smile on Isaac's face faded and he looked very solemn: "I need to first understand the inside story of the Star Ring Islands and what I need to do."
"It's natural!"
The shadow priest nodded slightly and immediately talked about some situations.
While Isaac listened, he would ask a few questions from time to time.
As their understanding increases, gradually, this person and one dragon are getting closer to a consensus step by step.
At the end, the shadow priest took out a small secret box and touched it with his hand. In front of him, a treasure box three feet long, wide and high appeared out of thin air on the ground.
With a magical command, the box was opened, and Isaac's eyes were immediately filled with books and scrolls.
Level 5 spell "Mage's Vault"!
You can hide the box in the spiritual plane, cast the spell once, and retrieve it at any time within two months.
This shadow priest is obviously a spellcaster of level 9 or above.
"This is the first magic information the elder has given you. Later, through Samantha, we will complete the transaction in stages."
The shadow priest and the elder were obviously well prepared.
This box of things is in exchange for the green dragon not to interfere in the affairs of the Star Ring Islands.
And if the green dragon is on their side, whether it is to assist them, capture the Star Ring Islands, or something else, they will be given additional higher-level spell information.
In response to this, Isaac couldn't help but express emotion on his face: "Please say 'thank you' to the elders for me. After all, teachers are the ones who can be trusted if they are in the same camp. My 'teacher' is very guarded against me."
Baifang, even meditating late at night, even asked his bronze dragon son to come over and conduct a secret investigation."
Then he collected the books and scrolls without hesitation.
It's all brought to your lips. If you don't accept it, you're looking down on the elder.
He always respected teachers and friends, and he would never be so rude.
Afterwards, Aido left without making any contract or asking for any tokens. We were all in one camp, all relying on credibility.
After confirming that they were no longer there, Isaac's expression darkened.
What bothers him the most is this kind of impolite guy.
Someone who sneaks into his home without saying hello is even more hateful than a bronze dragon.
"The progress of the kobolds must be accelerated. In the new lair, I will combine magic alarms and traps, and then disguise some stone chambers and forks. Whether it is a mage or a rogue, whether it is invisibility or transformation,
Regardless of whether he is a friend or an enemy, anyone who wanders in casually will die at his own peril."
"By the way, there are doors! No one can come in or out. The treasure house, laboratory, and library must have thick stone doors, and then be closed with door sealing techniques!"
With this in mind, he looked through the gifts of the "elder" again.
There are still mostly low-level spells, and quite a few of them overlap with his collection, but they are still useful.
There are a lot of spells in it, including research angles, which are obviously not in the same field as his teacher.
"Shadow spells, focusing on illusion, necromancy, and conjuration."
"Some spells are not even mentioned in the teacher's information."
"Shadow priesthood, treasure house of knowledge...could it be related to this?"
Isaac's eyes flashed slightly.
He felt that when studying these spells, he should be more careful. After all, the teacher is more trustworthy because he is from the same camp. Of course, he is as lawful and kind as Master Dunluo, and these Aido, but
A thoroughly evil villain, so of course you have to be careful.
Thinking of Master Deng Luo, he had a slight headache.
According to the introduction of the shadow priest, his teacher is actually a powerful 17th level mage. He masters the 9th level spell and most likely built a teleportation circle in the mage tower!
This is also the fundamental reason why Ai Duo had the upper hand several times, but at the most critical moment, an unexpected person suddenly appeared, and their success fell short.
In this case, if he wants to take over the legacy of the old mage... it will obviously be much more difficult than expected!
"Aido revealed this, probably because he wanted me to destroy that magic circle at the critical moment."
"But not to mention that my teacher has always been wary of me, and I also dare not go to his territory casually..."
"If Aido doesn't have an actionable plan, the most I can do is pretend that I don't know what's going on, hold it back, and go all out to develop my own power!"
Half a month later, the kobold slaves, who mobilized with all their strength, finally made improvements to his lair.
After the big move, in the spacious and comfortable new home, Isaac, who was lying on the quilt made of gems and gold coins, was in a happy mood and was thinking about raising the kobold slave level from the eighth level to the third level.
