In the dark underground space, a huge blood-colored magic circle bloomed quietly here. Men in black surrounded the magic circle and kept muttering spells. The disgusting smell of blood filled this area, this complex and cumbersome place.
The bloody magic array is constructed based on blood!
In the center of the magic circle, the noble man with short blue hair was holding an amethyst skull staff, his face was pale, and he was panting continuously. His luxurious clothes were already soaked with sweat.
After spending more than ten years collecting the essence and blood of high-level monsters and a drop of his own false god's blood in one go, the embarrassed nobleman Ace finally obtained the mission goal of this trip with a huge investment.
A brown-black magic book floated quietly in front of Ace. A chain glowing with sacred silver light sealed this special magic book. However, even with the sacred seal, the maliciousness of the magic book remained.
It exists. Just looking at it, the emotion called despair almost made Ace sink into it.
This is the "Prayer of Despair", a book of extremely evil spells that records the summoning of ancient demons.
Ace took a deep breath and held "Prayer of Despair" in his hand. The biting cold current spread all over his body along the hand holding the book. Ace shivered violently. At this moment,
For a moment, he seemed to hear the seductive and depraved devil's words.
Dark golden light flashed in Ace's eyes, and a violent and ferocious aura erupted in Ace's body. His short blue hair turned into silver. He lowered his head and glanced at the sealed magic book in his hand. The corners of Ace's mouth rose slightly.
"I got the item, it is genuine. It can be withdrawn!"
"boom--!"
Just when Ace waved his hand and was about to close the team, a tremor like the earth was shaking suddenly erupted.
Earthquake?! At this time? Ace quickly looked left and right, seeing dust falling on the top of the ruins. The corner of Ace's mouth couldn't help but twitch. Wouldn't he be so unlucky? He would be buried alive here just after he obtained the mission item.
What?
"A hundred years... or a thousand years?"
A hoarse whisper suddenly broke into the souls of the people in this area.
Eston was startled. He suddenly remembered His Highness's instructions when issuing the mission, "Pandora Ant Tribe?"
Thousands of years ago, a horrific ant plague occurred in the Divine Grace Continent that shocked the entire continent. Thousands of army ants overran Versailles, a kingdom of knights known for its military power. Everywhere they went, not a blade of grass grew! Queen Pandora's ants
The name instantly became the most terrifying taboo of that era.
Different from the Super Warcraft, the Pandora Ant Tribe is a race that cannot communicate with them at all. In their eyes, humans are just delicious delicacies with excellent taste.
Therefore, in order to wipe out the powerful Pandora ant tribe, the Holy See of Light gathered the strongest combat forces in the mainland and formed a coalition to fight against the ant plague. They launched a decisive battle with the Pandora ant tribe at the former site of the King of Versailles.
In that battle, corpses littered the fields and blood flowed into rivers. In the end, the Pope of the Holy See of Light used the wishes of countless races and people on the mainland to launch the divine descending technique, which successfully caused the gods to send down a trace of their will and merge it into the Pope's body. With powerful divine power.
The Pope of Light, whose combat power soared, boldly killed the ant queen and won the final victory.
The once powerful Pandora ant tribe was exterminated. However, it is said that they left the only fire, which was buried deep under the soil of the ruins of the Kingdom of Versailles. Cutting the weeds without eradicating the roots was the last resort and the use of divine magic.
A generation of bright popes have run out of oil after killing the ant queen. The only thing they can do is to lay a seal and send soldiers from the anti-ant coalition to guard this sealed land for generations.
That's right. This is the original origin of Academy City. Academy City was formed by magicians from the Ant Disaster Alliance.
The old and new magic systems, practical magic reform, simple magic reform, universal magic reform, and magic schools are all stories after the establishment of Academy City. The last fire of the Pandora Ant Tribe is sealed in the underground of Academy City. This information, until now
, only a few great beings remembered it.
As for the seal of the Pandora Ant Tribe, the original seal has long been riddled with holes due to thousands of years of time and changes in the earth. This time, the actions of the Dark Cross Group can be said to have broken through the seal of "Prayer of Despair".
A deeper ancient seal was penetrated.
The last fire of Pandora's ant tribe is about to see the light of day again!
Elements are converging and energy is gathering. As one of the strongest members of the Cross Group, Ace can clearly feel the power gathering under the earth. Ace's face suddenly turned sideways at this.
Is this a magic cannon? It wants to blast through the earth but it can't!? What a terrifying power. With this level of pressure, an eighth-level strongman, that guy underground, definitely possesses an eighth-level combat power.
"The prayer is in hand, the mission is accomplished. Let's retreat!" Without a trace of hesitation, Ace turned into a silver stream of light and ran through the ruins with "Prayer of Despair" in his arms.
"Finally...now I'm finally free."
The hoarse whisper still echoed in the soul. The torrent of elements instantly burst out from the depths of the earth. The earth shattered. The gradually dimming blood-colored magic array was instantly blasted into nothingness by a dazzling energy beam. A huge white beam of light shot straight to the top of the ruins.
.
…
"Tch, did you escape?" The young dean appeared in the eyes of Yide and others, with a faint red light in his eyes, looking into the distance and curling his lips in disdain.
Xi Wei, who had just sighed, paused and waved the magic wand in his hand. He who was supposed to float into the sky was still on the earth. Fortunately, Xi Wei reacted quickly and stood up straight, feeling the things around him.
Elements, Xi Wei suddenly frowned, "The elements have been suppressed? What's going on? Is there any new invention from the Dark Cross Group?"
Xi Wei raised his head while thinking, and finally had the opportunity to carefully observe the surrounding situation. When he saw a blond boy next to him, a girl holding a golden heavy sword and staring at him with empty eyes, Xi Wei couldn't help but think
Slightly startled.
In response to the sudden appearance of Xi Wei, in order to protect Ide's safety, Margaret launched the Forbidden Demon Realm without hesitation. However, immediately after Ide's instruction, the Forbidden Demon Realm was closed again.
Glancing at the blond boy next to the girl, Xi Wei was stunned. How could Xi Wei not be familiar with the boy in front of him who caused the dean's meeting? In the end, he should thank the young pope in front of him for saving his life.
His precious apprentice's life.
Looking at the dilapidated neighborhood due to the fighting, Xi Wei shook his head with a wry smile and made a mage salute to Yide, "Your Excellency Yide, I didn't expect that our first meeting would be under such circumstances. I am
Cloris’ teacher Sylvie.”
Ide, who was supported by Margaret, nodded slightly. Ide, who had just experienced a big battle, was already very weak. He raised his head with some difficulty and gave Xi Wei the same wry smile, "Dean Xi Wei.
Well, to be honest, I really didn’t expect our first meeting to be under such circumstances.”
Xi Wei had a good impression of Ide. As Clolis's teacher, Xi Wei naturally knew that the young pope in front of him had many magical qualities. He glanced at the beauty in the black dress next to Ide.
A trace of thought flashed in Wei's eyes, is it the Forbidden Demon Realm?
Just when Yi De and Xi Wei were reminiscing about old times, a scream suddenly echoed in the souls of the people in the entire Academy City, "I am Pandora, and I am the ant colony!"
A huge white beam of light soared into the sky from not far away. At this moment, the sky seemed to be shattered.
Everyone looked in horror at the direction where the light beam gradually dimmed, and trembling from the soul lingered in everyone's hearts.
Xi Wei looked at the sky in the distance in surprise. Pandora? Ant colony? Xi Wei had an idea flash in his mind. He suddenly remembered something recorded in an ancient book that he accidentally found in the college library. He was curious about that record.
Serious Sivit asked the first dean Thales about the authenticity of the ancient books.
For this reason, Xi Wei was one of the very few people who knew about the existence of the Pandora ant tribe. For this reason, Xi Wei's expression became extremely ferocious, "No, something happened!"
At the same time, in the demiplane of Dean Thales, Thales' complexion suddenly changed, and lightning and thunder appeared again, but this time it was far more violent than the first time he competed with the king of the Dark Cross.
"You...couldn't you have known that this would happen?!" The furious Thales stared at the elegant girl drinking tea not far away, the lightning in his hand shining.
"Probably, I can see a little bit." The girl smiled softly, as if she didn't care at all about the resurrection of Pandora's ant tribe.
"Lord of Qi, obey my order and show your anger. Billions of thunders!"
The violent thunder instantly covered the entire demiplane. (To be continued...)
