The 300,000-strong revenge army of Sithis encountered the forbidden spell of the great magician Russell outside the Red Dragon Castle. The entire army was annihilated and Duke Hansen was killed in battle.
The news spread like a tsunami across the northern continent.
Sidis, Greentown.
The moment the old King Derais XV received the news, he stood up suddenly, then covered his chest, gasped a few times, rolled his eyes, and fell softly to the ground.
"Your Majesty? Your Majesty... Your Majesty!!! Wuwuwu~~~" the queen burst into tears.
After a while, bursts of crying came from the palace, and the king passed away.
The elite of the kingdom died in ten, and the king passed away unable to withstand the blow. The originally strong country of Xidis declined sharply, and Dongdis began to make moves.
In short, the Kingdom of Sithis has too much time to take care of itself and can no longer afford to look to the Kingdom of Helm in the west.
Half a month after the Forbidden Curse appeared, the new lords of the three major families who originally left the Kingdom of Helm and joined Sithis entered the Red Dragon Castle and apologized. After some wrangling, the three major families re-merged into the Kingdom of Helm.
The situation in the Helm Kingdom began to stabilize and it began to recuperate.
This news also reached the Black Hell Castle in the dark forest to the west.
The Demon King sat on the throne and quietly read the battle report. When he finished reading it, he did not get angry and calmly handed the battle report back to the rams-horned demon attendant beside him. Then he leaned on the throne and asked the scout commander under the throne: "
As far as I know, this Russell is just a great magician. How is his health after releasing the forbidden spell?"
"After releasing the forbidden spell, Russell looked calm and behaved without any abnormality. When his wife, Queen Tolia, was waiting to board the carriage, he even gently supported him with his hand. From this, it can be inferred that even if his body is damaged, it will not be damaged.
It's no big deal." The scout commander reported.
"Oh?" The Demon Lord didn't believe it: "Is it really so? What is the report coming from the palace?"
"In the palace, Russell has a normal schedule. He still spends most of the day in the alchemy room. At night, he returns to Queen Tolia's room to rest. According to observations, in half a month, the maids in the palace changed their beds ten times.
Secondary sheets. I think this should show that there is no big problem with Russell’s health.”
This evidence was more sufficient. The Demon Lord frowned slightly. He gently tapped his finger on the armrest of the skeleton and made a 'ta', 'da' and 'da' sound.
The demons all knew that their king was thinking, so they tried to breathe lightly for fear of disturbing the king's thoughts.
After a long time, the Demon Lord spoke: "From ancient times to the present, no magician can use magic beyond the level, especially after using forbidden spells, and still remain unscathed. I think that even if Russell is healthy, his magic ability will definitely be affected.
Without the influence, this is a perfect opportunity for an assassination!"
"Your Majesty, what do you mean?"
"Pass the message to Montos, and I'll give him two months. In two months, I want to see Russell's head appear in the Skeleton Hall!" The Demon Lord's voice contained irresistible majesty.
"Yes, Your Majesty!" The scout commander exited the hall.
After a while, a night owl flew out of Black Hell Castle and flew towards the Helm Kingdom.
………
Northern Association of Magicians.
Pierre Simon has returned to the federation headquarters. At this time, he is sitting in the round table hall of the federation, making a report on the trip to the twelve magic elders of the federation.
The elders listened carefully to his story, asking questions from time to time, or discussing with each other. The content was all about the core of this report: the great magician Russell.
After a long time, Simon's report was completed. He concluded: "I think Russell has a magical talent that is difficult for ordinary people to match, but he also has a personality that is very different from ordinary people. The emergence of such a magician who may lose control at any time on the mainland is not
What a blessing. Instead it’s a crisis!”
The elders discussed in whispers for a while, and finally, the president of the Federation, the great magician Andreas, who was nearly seventy years old, spoke up and gave his final conclusion.
"Simon, from your explanation, I see a sharp-edged and talented young man. The Elders believe that the dispute between Sithis and the Helm Kingdom, and even the Red Dragon Castle incident, can be completely avoided, but they
But it happened, millions of lives were lost, you failed to play your due role, you... were at fault."
Simon was stunned for a while and said in confusion: "All this is caused by Russell's intransigence. He didn't care about the overall situation at all! I don't even know where I went wrong."
Andreas sighed: "Simon, war can never stop war. Peace comes from mutual compromise. You blindly let the Helm Kingdom compromise, but condoned Sithis. This is the biggest mistake. As for Russell, he just did
One thing is to protect his wife and people. This is what any responsible man should do."
"What about the 300,000 revenge soldiers? Did they die in vain?" Simon argued.
"This is an army that has lost all humanity. They massacred nearly 800,000 unarmed civilians in total, and their behavior is no different from that of demons. Leaving such an army on the mainland will be a disaster. A forbidden curse is
The best destination for them. The Federation of Magicians will not sanction the great magician Russell because of this forbidden spell." Andreas told the final result.
"That's not fair!" Simon protested angrily.
Andreas shook his head and continued: "And you, Simon, we have decided to let you enter the Ascetic Tower for one year. You need time to get rid of the jealousy and anger in your heart. Regarding this decision, you... have
Any objection?" Andreas said calmly.
"I...accept." Simon lowered his head. He was awakened by Andreas' last words. Indeed, he felt jealous in his heart. He was jealous of Russell's youth and his talent.
Two magic warriors walked up, took off Simon's robe, took away the staff, and then escorted Simon into the Penance Tower.
After Simon left, an elder in red robe looked at Antilles and said: "Master, the dispute on St. Peter's Island in the south is getting more and more intense. News came that three days ago, Odin's loyal servant Levendale
The island owner was assassinated. The conflict escalated and bloodshed has begun."
"I know. I know." Andreas rubbed his forehead: "This is a conflict of faith. There is no other solution except war. I heard that three young people have appeared in the Tower of Sages in the south.
There are only two great magicians, and we only have two of them, and they are hostile to each other, so the situation is not good."
The elders all sighed. The confrontation between the north and the south was becoming more and more intense. A large-scale battle of faith could break out at any time. However, the northern kingdom was still fighting among itself, which was really worrying.
Seeing that everyone was depressed, Andreas clapped his hands and said: "Cheer up, things are not that bad. Now we have a young magician who can release forbidden spells. This is a blessing. Next, we have to do
The most important thing is to resolve the hostility of the Russell Magician Federation as soon as possible. Lucius, you have met Russell in Green City. How about you go to the Red Dragon Castle on behalf of the Federation? "
Lucius, six years ago, when Sun Ran was provoked by Prince Andre in Green City, he was the one who immediately arranged for Sun Ran to escape. It was considered a good relationship at that time.
Lucius nodded: "It's a great honor." (To be continued...)
