Fernando felt like a breath was stuck in his chest and he couldn't spit it out. This old fox had actually deceived everyone! And what's even more disgusting was that he had hinted in advance that it would be like watching a drama watching him and others being misled!
No wonder he wasn't worried that "Dark Blue Gift" Sharp would regret exposing him!
Fernando suppressed his anger and followed Arnold quickly out of the forest. The aftermath of the battle between the legendary strong men could destroy this place!
"Has the strength of Lord Death returned to level three?" Douglas repeated one of Fernando's questions. At this time, he was more concerned about the strength comparison between the two sides. The rest were minor details and could be discussed after the matter was over.
Deep in the forest, the light and shadow changed, the snowflakes flew, and it seemed as if there were countless ghosts wandering inside, which made people shudder. Arnold squinted and looked back, smiling like a real fox: "The 'Lord of Death' was originally killed by the Pope.
He was severely injured, his body, soul, and life box were all shattered, and he was only a little bit close to total death. Fortunately, the Pope did not use the 'divine descent technique' at that time."
"Later, Lord Death relied on the soul core preserved by the legendary secret technique to fuse many other people's soul fragments, resurrected it with alchemical life, and reshaped his body."
In the spiritual connection, he talked about the Death Lord in a leisurely manner, and seemed to have no doubt about the outcome of this battle. After all, the Death Lord was once the pinnacle of legends, and he was also a terrifying and powerful man with an undead army under his command. Even if
Now that the strength has declined seriously, there is no problem in dealing with a "Heart of Time" who has not yet advanced to the third level:
"But this has great hidden dangers. The fragments conflict with each other, the main consciousness is often disturbed, and most of the spell models have become incomplete. Therefore, the strength has not been restored for a long time."
"It wasn't until more than ten years ago that Mr. Tannanos relied on in-depth research and mastery of the soul to slowly and completely absorb the other fragments, and then slowly restored the legendary third-level strength. Maybe in a few decades. He will
I can return to the top."
"It doesn't seem like a big problem..." Fernando said subconsciously.
His judgment was based on reality. After the long Dawn War, everyone knew that at the same level, magicians were stronger than knights and clergy, but the time interval between magicians' growth was too long.
It is much higher than the two, especially the latter, so it slowly fell into a disadvantage.
In addition, the Necromancer, who symbolizes death, resurrection and life, is one of the three most powerful types of magicians because of his deep understanding of the soul. He is also more deadly and strange!
Therefore, even if Ketonia is a variant of the "Time Dragon" bloodline and is a knight powerful enough to compete with mages of the same level, he will not have any hope of winning against a necromancer who is one level higher than him. It just depends on whether he can
He seized the fleeting opportunity and ran away.
Arnold smiled and did not respond to Fernando's words. Instead, he took the initiative to explain the operation to the two of them: "Actually, while contacting organizations such as 'Red Eye' and 'Soul Supreme', I also tried to contact the three
A legendary gentleman said hello and received a satisfactory answer."
They were moving very fast and had already reached the edge of the black forest, so they turned back together again to look at the battlefield of the legendary strong men.
At this moment, in the mist of dead souls floating and struggling with countless soul faces, a hazy and flickering light suddenly flew out. All the obstacles along the way were like phantoms, not delaying it for a moment at all, as if they were in the middle of each other.
Different time and space.
"The power of time is indeed powerful..." Douglas sighed with emotion during the spiritual connection.
Before he finished speaking, the sky, which was slightly brighter due to the dancing ice and snow, suddenly dimmed, and a huge dragon came circling down. Its whole body had rotten muscles, with bones visible, pus flowing across it, and pale flames spitting out of its mouth.
This turned out to be a "dracolich", a legendary undead creature!
The wings of this death dragon spread out, blocking out the sky and the sun, leaving half of the forest in absolute darkness. Wrapped in the passing "time", only the dim light could be seen struggling,
In tearing.
Two huge figures appeared in the air nearby again. One was a mummy wrapped in yellow-brown cloth. Its powerful aura could be felt by Douglas and Fernando in the distance. The other was a monster with only a skeleton left in its body.
, it is bigger than the Dragon Lich, as if it is the skeleton left behind by the death of the legendary sea monster in the endless ocean.
These two undead souls, who were absolutely legendary, were entangled by their respective halos and plunged into the deep darkness created by the "dracolich". As a result, the last hazy "time" was also covered.
In the forest, ghosts, zombies, skinless dogs, mummies, dead souls, ghosts and other undead creatures are like surging tides, climbing and covering them with "darkness".
"A legendary level necromancer is really scary to a terrifying degree, especially since he is also the 'Death Lord' profession known for mastering the powerful undead army. Ketonia is over..." Fernando is deeply involved in the necromancy system.
The scene at this point is inevitably a bit dumbfounding.
Among the other legendary professions of the necromantic system, whether it is the "Pale Lord" or the "Demi-God Lich", although they also have many "helpers", they are not as good as the "Death Lord" who has this as their "main job".
The two professions are more focused on instant death spells, soul attacks, mysterious states, etc.
If the Pope hadn't destroyed the main "legion" of the "Lord of Death", he alone could have withstood most of the legends in the Great Holm area. You know, when he was at his peak, all the legendary third-level undead servants were
There are two!
There was darkness in the depths of the forest. Not a single sound was leaked. It was extremely quiet. It was both strange and terrifying. It was impossible to understand the progress of the battle. Therefore, Fernando had no choice but to retract his gaze and continue the "topic" just now: "Satisfactory answer"
?”
Didn't the old fox say before that only by obtaining the cooperation of the nobles can the organization of the three legendary mages be persuaded to join? Is he lying again?
Arnold glanced at him and Douglas, and the old god said: "Although Lord Tannanos was dissatisfied with the empire's actions and was unwilling to go to Alto to help, as one of the strongest men who once stood at the top of the world,
, he does not lack the judgment of the situation and understands that this is the last chance to save himself!"
"While most of the main force of the church is being dragged to the west by Abel, Dracula, Denissus and other powerful men of various races and the legendary lords of the empire, we must save ourselves! Once the dust settles, maybe even the sewers
Even worse than mice!"
"This is the last chance, either die or live a better life, we understand. They, the elites among magicians, also understand that even if I don't contact you to say hello, they will probably take action recently.
"
At this point, Arnold chuckled: "Originally, they didn't think much of us, but Sharp's commission gave me inspiration, so I took this action. From the beginning, the real goal was 'Time'
Heart'Ctonia, the most promising epic knight among the nobles, is also a strong man who is relatively close to the church."
"No wonder you pushed for it so actively when Sharp just casually made a commission without further confirmation!" Fernando felt more and more heartbroken. He didn't even notice this. It wasn't until now that he thought about it that he realized the old fox's attitude at that time.
Too eager!
Arnold smiled and said nothing, but Douglas nodded and said: "Even we believe that this is to assassinate Alfonso, how can Ctonia doubt it?"
"But what if Rigg is not a traitor? What if the Heart of Time didn't come?" Fernando already understood that completing Sharp's commission was just a superficial disguise, used to cover up the real goal, but there were still some questions in his mind.
Arnold smiled like a fox who had stolen a chick: "The real target is Alfonso. By assassinating him, he provoked conflicts between the nobility and the church, and won over some big nobles represented by Sharp, so as to gain room for survival.
.”
Huh? Fernando looked at Arnold in shock, feeling that he couldn't keep up with his train of thought.
Arnold chuckled and said: "First of all, you must always remember our path: to win over the nobles and sow discord between them and the church. Therefore, whether it is besieging the pro-church's 'Heart of Time' or assassinating Alfonso, it is all
Strive for this path. It’s just that the former is more effective than the latter.”
"In the event that the former cannot be completed, the latter is our minimum guarantee. It is definitely not just a disguise."
Fernando listened very attentively and vaguely grasped some essential things. For the first time, he was eager to hear the old fox talk.
Arnold turned his eyes to Douglas and said with a smile: "If you want to achieve your goal smoothly, you must not make a plan that is so interlocking and so exquisite that if there is even the slightest accident in any link, it will fail, because there are many accidents in actual operations.
It’s terrifying, and the human heart is so complex that it’s difficult to fully grasp it.”
"The key to action is to conceal, disguise, deceive, conceal one's true purpose, and disguise it as another idea, and this idea will help the completion of the true purpose to a certain extent, so as to avoid failure to the greatest extent, because the enemy destroys
What you really want is not what you really want, and even his destruction helps you. Regardless of disguise or deception, it is inseparable from the support of detailed intelligence and the concealment of key information about yourself..."
He was flying outside the forest, with his hands behind his back, his white hair flying, and he was talking with ease and calmness. Fernando was stunned for a moment, and cursed from the bottom of his heart: The old fox is indeed an old fox!
But why doesn't he usually talk in such detail?
Douglas listened quietly, feeling similarly to Fernando. Before the Battle of Antiphore, he had been focusing on research and was rejected by other magicians. He basically had no experience in taking charge of the overall situation, formulating plans, and arranging actions. Later, during the exile
In the process, he suffered a lot and slowly learned a little bit. However, these experiences were so obscure that he still seemed unfamiliar. But after hearing Arnold's explanation, he suddenly felt enlightened and understood.
.
His heart moved: "Mr. President, are you teaching me?"
He used the honorific.
Arnold turned his head, smiled and looked at the forest still shrouded in absolute darkness, and said with an old and sentimental voice: "No matter how strange your question is, you are the magician with the most leadership potential in the union. Hey, Fernando, although
Smart, but too impatient and restless, so I have to tell you some of my experiences before I die."
"Old fox!"
"Mr. President..."
Arnold raised his hand to stop their words and continued: "In this war that makes magicians despair, so many legendary lords have fallen, not to mention me? Maybe at some point, I will be defeated by a cardinal, an epic knight, or
If the night watchers are killed, I will not be luckier than others, and maybe I will have aged and died in less than a hundred years. This is a natural law, and unless I become a legendary magician, it will be difficult to break through."
"My biggest wish now is for magicians to return to the highest position in the world and build a glorious and splendid magic empire."
His eyes did not leave the legendary battlefield, and his voice became slightly lower: "I don't know if I can live to see this scene..."
I only hope to see "you" return to the highest level in my lifetime!
His back was a little stooped, and his white hair was so obvious.
At this time, an unimaginably brilliant light burst out in the darkness, illuminating the world.
