Chapter 224 Armand Block, President of the Austrian Law Federation
Todd took out the crystal ball from his dimensional bag.
The crystal ball of the Arcane Law Association is different from the spell-casting equipment used by ordinary mages to cast divination or surveillance spells. In fact, the crystal ball of the Association may explode inexplicably if used as a spell-casting equipment.
The crystal ball of the Alfa Federation itself is a magic prop. It can be regarded as a superior substitute for the sound transmission stone commonly used in Monrovia. As long as the magic power is injected and the corresponding spell is recited, the crystal ball will be linked to the specific crystal ball.
Establish a two-way image and sound channel.
Of course, the spells used to establish channels with different crystal balls are all unique. If you don't know any of the spells, the crystal ball will just be an ordinary glass product.
After taking out the crystal ball, Todd looked at the special envoy Kesette. As the special envoy, he is the leader of the team, and naturally he also controls the spell to communicate with the immediate superior of the mission.
However, most envoys will not deliberately avoid other members of the team when using the crystal ball, so team members generally know this spell, and it is just a common courtesy for the special envoy to activate the crystal ball.
Kesette's team is different. Their immediate boss is the president of the Austrian Law Federation, and the tasks they perform are also issued by the Supreme Council of the Austrian Law Federation.
Kesette completed the chanting of the spell in front of everyone and injected magic power into the crystal ball, so blurry images began to appear inside the crystal ball.
The image gradually became clearer, and the face of Armand Bloch, president of the Austrian Federation, appeared in the crystal ball.
"Have the new supplies been delivered?" he said, "I'm looking forward to that half-elf girl, she's so perfect. I have the potions and scrolls ready to turn her into a perfect one... Oh, it's you."
Armand Block looked very embarrassed. He coughed a few times, cleared his throat, and sat upright: "How is the mission going?"
Kesette and the people in his team looked at each other and decisively decided to pretend not to hear what the previous president said - the channel was not fully established at that time, so it was normal not to hear.
Kesette: "We have been in contact with the Salvation Team, but found that the situation is different from what was mentioned in the intelligence. They have two new members, one of whom should be a monk. According to our direct observation, the rank of this monk
Very high, maybe already at the master level.
"His body may not be a physical entity anymore."
Armand Block frowned: "Aren't monks of this level all abbots of monasteries? They wait to explode the relics and immortal sloughs after passing away. Following the adventure team, if they pass away on the adventure, it will be a big loss to the monastery.
.Could it be that you saw it wrong?"
Kesette: "If we have the chance, we will use prophecy magic to verify it."
"If there is a chance?" The president frowned, "Are you actually afraid of a fourth-ring mage? Can't you even secretly cast a prophecy spell in front of him?"
Kesette: "Now there is an old mage beside him, whose strength is unknown."
Armand Brok: "A new mage? Is it from our Arcane Federation?"
Kesette: "No. We suspect that it was the lich that occupied Qianshui City."
Armand Broch: "A nine-ring lich...The situation is indeed a bit tricky. Can you still kidnap the king and Elizabeth as planned?"
Kesette: "If you successfully attack and control the others with the power of a mountain, there should be no problem."
Bullock cursed: "Asshole, are you a fool? How can such a mighty force be effective against a lich?"
Undead creatures generally have extremely high resistance to enchantment spells. Advanced undead creatures will not be frantic, confused or charmed, and lichs are directly immune to most enchantment effects.
Kesette slapped his head hard: "Yes, sorry, I have no experience in dealing with lichs, so I forgot about this."
Most people will never encounter a lich once in their lifetime, and if they do, they will most likely be transformed into an undead creature by a lich.
It's no wonder Kesette forgot that lichs are immune to charm control.
Armand Block: "The plan is about to be rescheduled. Are they suspicious of you?"
Kesette: "No, he still plans to trade with us, and it can be seen that he hopes that the Austrian and French Federation will be his help."
Armand Broch: "Of course we can be their help. After all, we also want the knowledge the Order has. Especially...it's nothing."
Kesette and others exchanged looks.
In fact, they all know what the president did not say. After all, we are all mages, and mages all have the same desire when they reach the High Circle: immortality.
You can't tell from Kesette's appearance because he is one-quarter of an elf. In fact, he is now over eighty years old.
Being a quarter elf blood allows him to live much longer than ordinary humans, but at the age of eighty, he has to start thinking about extending his life.
As for the rest of the team, Todd is the youngest, only forty-four years old, but he is only in the sixth ring, and it is much harder to advance to the seventh or eighth ring than the previous six rings.
Not to mention the insurmountable gap between the ninth ring and the eighth ring. The promotion of the eighth ring to the ninth ring is like a carp leaping over the dragon's gate. Many people have not been able to jump over it for decades and can only regret it for the rest of their lives.
As a seventh-level mage, Peter is already in his fifties. Even with the knowledge gained from the Federation, it still requires a certain amount of "understanding" to advance to the eighth level before the age of sixty.
What all mages at this stage want most is immortality. Only immortality can ensure that they can enter the Nine Environments and understand the ultimate mysteries of the world.
To put it bluntly, everyone here has more or less knowledge about lich transformation, just in case.
Every high-level mage is a lich reserve, but there is a threshold for transforming into a lich. There are many spells that can directly transform oneself into a lich, and none of them are lower than the eighth level.
Moreover, these spells have a high probability of failure. If you make a slightly wrong posture or mispronounce a word, you may be transformed into various high-level undead creatures - not lichs anyway.
In short, a spell like Iolum's Immortality is full of desire for a mage.
The Ragnola Order provides another idea: the top leaders of the order are also nine-ring mages. It is said that they have greatly extended their lifespan through Ragnola's "gifts".
The president must be coveting this.
The entire Austrian Law Federation's mission team is well aware of this.
Because they covet this too.
It should be said that there is no high-level mage who does not covet this.
Of course, everyone present did not know that there was a mage tower to which the fourth-ring mage belonged, and obtaining eternity was only part of the "graduation exam".
Once you pass the graduation examination, you will be awarded the title of associate professor in Tali. If you are promoted to full professor, you will also need to publish a significant report in a journal and be recognized by the professors' association.
Every year, a burst of open and secret fighting breaks out in Professor Pingzheng's tower, and the students below also bet on it for fun.
If Kesette and the others knew this, I wonder if they would cry and hope to become students of this mage tower.
It's a pity that they don't know, they just exchange a tacit look now.
Armand Bullock did not notice the little thoughts on the side of the crystal ball, and continued: "In short, don't rush to start kidnapping, first gain the trust of the rescue team, and if necessary, you can consider helping them to severely damage the cult. .”
Kesette: "We told the Salvation Team that we want to ask the top management of the Austrian Law Federation for instructions. Could you please have a call with Captain Wang of the Salvation Team?"
Armand Bullock thought for a while and nodded: "Yes. I can even teleport to your coordinates to see what the lich has to offer."
Kesette: "That would be great."
"But the lich that just massacred a city like Qianshui City must be extremely powerful. Even I can't easily destroy him. It should be said that we should try our best to avoid being enemies with such lichs, or hand them over to the Zhengshen Church. Let the paladins deal with it."
Kesette probed: "Are the Zhengshen Church ready to send out the knights to deal with this lich?"
Armand Block: "Not yet. Wait a moment, there is a new communication coming. I want to leave for a while."
After saying this, without waiting for Kesette's response, his image disappeared from the crystal ball.
A moment later, Armand Block reappeared: "I may not be able to teleport there."
Kesette: "What happened?"
Bullock: "Don't worry about it. Bring this crystal ball to the king of the Salvation Team, and I'll talk to him about cooperation."
Kesette: "Understood."
He glanced at his team members.
Peter wrote on the table with a pen: "Maybe something happened to the Tomb of the Final Storm that the Federation is excavating."
Kesette nodded, and then said: "Let's go and find the rescue team."
