Chapter 3144 City of Ashes

After being invited by Eric, Rhodes thought about it and decided to stay and participate in the meeting of the college mages.

Regarding the Demonic Castle east of the Giant Willow Land, Rhodes was able to use the power of the Eternal Demonic Eye to detect the defense measures on the outside of the castle. But how many demons were entrenched inside the castle, and how many of them were at the top of the legend with the same strength as Aiden?

It is still unclear about the Demon General. If he goes there rashly, it will also be quite troublesome for Rhodes if he falls into the trap of those demons. He might as well listen to the mages at the meeting first to discuss what happened in the Demon Castle.

.

He has not yet won the final power of the earth element. Although Rhodes' strength has surpassed all the elemental monarchs in the past, Rhodes still has to be cautious about the various powerful enemies lurking in the doomsday. He does not want to fall short at this moment.

Under the leadership of Eric, the group arrived in front of a heavily guarded conference hall. Rhodes keenly sensed that the magical elements nearby had become extremely strong, which was undoubtedly due to the gathering of mages. Since the mages were very concerned about

The absorption of free magic elements in the space. Every mage contains a massive amount of mana composed of magic elements. In front of Rhodes, who is in charge of the three systems of authority, he can tell just how much mana exists in a mage's body.

Intuitively judge his strength or weakness.

The ultimate mana contained by mages is closely related to their knowledge attributes. For spellcasters, knowledge attributes are also the second most important attribute after spiritual attributes.

Arriving inside the conference hall, Rhodes also saw many legendary mages. Many of them took the initiative when the demon generals attacked and activated the guardian circle below the academy. The atmosphere in the conference hall was solemn, even faint.

With a sense of chilling, it is obvious that the demon general's attack has pushed the tolerance of the college mages to the limit, not to mention the demons' act of injecting the fire of doom into the mages' bodies. No spellcaster would

Allow such cruel behavior.

"Master Eric, you are finally here."

Eric, who came with Rhodes, was greeted by the mages. The person who said these words was an old woman wearing a purple robe with a sad face. In front of the old woman was a round and shining

A crystal ball, but the surface of the crystal ball was charred black, as if it had just been taken out of a fire. This was a rather ominous omen.

"Prophet Orak, regarding this attack by the demon general, is there any information from the magic guild?" Eric asked proactively.

Orak just shook his head: "I contacted Eschar, the president of the magic guild. He said that the reason why Demon General Aiden launched the attack was because the college mage acted rashly and tried to rescue the demons who captured him.

All consequences caused by the people imprisoned in the dungeon of Ash City must be borne by the mages in the academy, and the magic guild will not provide any reinforcements."

Hearing this, Eric, who had expected it, sighed deeply, couldn't help but frown, and finally said: "Where is the Jungle Guardian?"

"The Jungle Guardian sent many apprentices from the first aid center to help us treat the injured in this accident. In addition, because of our brave battle against Ash City, the rangers brought a lot of supplies as condolences, but

The elves are also facing threats from demons and have no time to allocate more troops to assist us."

After listening to Orac's information, Eric's expression improved, but the worry that existed deep in his eyebrows never eased:

"In recent days, demons have been plundering low-level mages in the academy, and even many high-level mages have been captured by them. Those demons did not kill the captured mages immediately, but deliberately kept them. Is it just

In order to use it as a trap, infuse it with the Doomsday Fire and wait for the rest of us to rescue it? I always feel that things are not that simple. I am worried that those demons may be planning some unknown plans. Prophet, do you know what those demons are?

Are you going to do something?”

Orak just shook his head: "In order to divine the movements of demons, I have already overdrawn my prediction ability. I am afraid I can't bring you any help. However, why don't you ask the mages who were rescued from the Ashes City in person? In addition to those who were infused

In addition to the mages who fell into the Doomsday Fire, there are also a handful of mages who have survived and are receiving treatment in the academy. Maybe they know something. Other mages in the academy are also confused about the true intentions of the demons. We will let them know later.

Those survivors among the mages told about what they saw in the City of Ashes."

Hearing this, Eric nodded, chatted with the prophet for a few more words, and then turned his attention to Rhodes who was aside again. As if he was worried that he might have doubts, he introduced him: "That old woman is

Prophet Orak, she can predict the future and answer oracles. In the past in Brakada, even the president of the magic guild respected her very much."

Rhodes nodded. In the past, he had seen the prophet Orak in Brakada. In the apocalypse, Rhodes often dealt with false prophets. When he met the real prophet, he seemed a little uncomfortable for a while.

"You should have heard the discussion I just had with Prophet Orak. What do you think of the demons taking away the mages?" As if thinking of something, Eric asked Rhodes again,

I'd like to hear his opinion on this matter.

The power of mages does not lie in their ability to cast spells, but in the process of studying magic, they have mastered wisdom that is far beyond ordinary people. This is also the origin of wisdom. A powerful mage also has incomparable wisdom.

Astonishing. Eric's inquiry was not so much that he really wanted to get an answer from Rhodes, but rather that he was testing him to see if he had any superior intelligence.

Sensing the hidden meaning in Eric's words, Rhodes had no scruples and said casually: "I heard that those demons are keen to see the birth of heroes. That seems to be the meaning of the Lord of Hell. The Lord of Hell is very important to people's awakening."

The will to become a hero has an obsession that is beyond ordinary people. I think the reason why the demons kidnapped a large number of mages at this time, not only mages, but also many other creatures in the apocalypse, is for this reason. They

I want to make those who were kidnapped heroes."

After hearing Rhode's words, Eric was stunned for a moment, and then he noticed the hidden meaning in Rhode's words. He did not ask questions for a while, but fell into thinking.

For some reason, the inquiry from the mage in front of him, which was originally just a brief test, actually brought some enlightenment to Eric himself. It was as if he, who had always been in darkness, suddenly saw a sudden light, just that burst of light.

It happened so briefly that when Eric thought about it again, he only felt a sense of loss.

Shaking his head, Eric couldn't help but show a look of surprise. If he hadn't been able to clearly confirm that the mage in front of him only had the sixth level of strength, he would even suspect that this mage was actually the same as him in strength.

A similar legendary mage is even more intelligent. But how is that possible? Eric, who masters the legendary wisdom technique, can be said to be at the top of all mages in terms of wisdom. There is no one smarter than him.

people exist.

After ruling out other possibilities, there seems to be only one situation left for Eric, that is, he has really found a treasure this time. The person in front of him not only has extraordinary courage and sensitive control of the timing of casting spells,

Even the hidden wisdom is rare among mages. He can see the essence of everything at a glance, which further strengthens Eric's determination to accept the person in front of him as his apprentice.

Rhodes didn't notice the change in Eric's expression. He was controlling the power of the Eternal Demonic Eye, seeing various situations around Ash City, trying to find any information about Cuthbert, but in the end he failed.

It can only end in disappointment. According to what the mages said, those people kidnapped by the devil should be locked in the dungeon, and the eternal evil eye cannot observe the situation deep underground.

Just when Eric was about to say something, he saw a sudden movement nearby. A mage apprentice covered in bruises came to the front with the help of others. He seemed to have something to say. Under the crowd's attention

Under his gaze, Prophet Orak came to the apprentice and introduced the identity of the apprentice to the many legendary mages in the conference room:

"Dear legendary mages who manage the academy, I think you already know what happened in the academy. The academy sent the most elite legendary mages to rescue those innocent mages who were kidnapped by demons from the dungeons outside Ash City. However, the demons

We were already prepared for this, and by pouring the Doomsday Fire into the mage's body, we were caught off guard, causing heavy losses to everyone in the academy. Although we had activated the protective circle, the Doomsday Fire was still burning outside the academy.

Fortunately, our actions have achieved results. Mage Ange is one of the mages we rescued from the demons' dungeon, and he also brought us important information about those demons."

After Orac's introduction, many nearby mages also set their sights on the mage Ange she mentioned. Ange is just an ordinary mage apprentice, and his strength is far inferior to that of the many prestigious legends in the conference room.

Compared to the mage, he was covered in scars and his clothes were still stained with blood. At this moment, he spoke tremblingly:

"Legendary mages in the academy, it was not a coincidence that those demons captured the innocent creatures in Eri, but a deliberate act. They made us constantly feel fear in the dungeon, thus forcing the birth of heroes among us.

Even if we were asked to kill other companions, we would not stop. I am very grateful to you for being able to rescue me from there..."

Ange's words immediately aroused a discussion among the nearby mages. As for why the demons wanted to capture those innocent mages, the mages in the academy also held different opinions. Some said that the demons were preparing some vicious rituals, which required

The lives of those mages were used as sacrifices. Some people said that those demons had fallen into madness. No matter what they did, it was not surprising. What was more important was to rescue the innocent people captured by the demons. Only a few people had vaguely guessed it.

The real plan of those demons.

After hearing what Ange said, Eric couldn't help but glance at Rhodes. If there was any mage who guessed the actions of those demons from the beginning, then that person must be Rhodes.

Not long ago, when Rhodes answered Eric's question, Eric was extremely surprised and tried to deny the answer from Rhodes. But now Ange's words also made Eric aware of something that made him slightly confused.

The shocking fact is that everything seems to be as Rhodes said before. The reason why those demons captured innocent people in the academy and even in Eri is to promote the birth of the so-called hero.

Just when Eric was a little surprised, he heard a blue-skinned monster below ask: "You said those demons intend to force heroes to be born from you? But that is simply impossible. No one can do it.

We know that heroes are not born that easily, and it can even be said that there is no external force at all that can force a hero to completely awaken. Even the demons in the City of Ashes cannot do this."

Faced with this question from the gods and monsters, Ange just shook his head: "Master gods and monsters, you don't know something. Those demons don't care about our life or death. They have implanted fear deeply into the hearts of each of us, leaving us in the dungeon.

I was tortured by fear and despair. Anyone who cannot become a hero will eventually die. I was also lucky. Before it was my turn to be planted with the fire of doom, I was rescued by the academy mage first.

I can stand here safely..."

Listening to Ange's words, the few mages nearby who knew something about heroes also fell into silence for a while. If everything Ange said is true, then the situation in the dungeon below Ash City is very likely to

It has reached a point where there is no need to delay. It seems that the demons have no intention of giving the captured creatures any way to survive from the beginning. How can anyone awaken and become a hero in this way? If they can't find a way to rescue those in the dungeon.

People, waiting for their final fate, are most likely to be completely swallowed up by the demons' doomsday fire.

At this moment, Eric also asked a question that Rhodes was very concerned about: "Since the demons kidnapped you to make those among you become heroes, then there is no reason for them to kidnap the heroes who have awakened their will.

That's right, I want to know if you have seen a mage hero from Erathia in the dungeon?"

The mage hero Eric talked about was obviously the Cuthbert that Rhodes was looking for. Listening to Eric's question, Rhodes also waited attentively for Ange's answer.
