In the monitoring room located at the center of the communication crystal tower base, Fenbyron's eyes were fixed on a huge crystal instrument hanging above, which displayed the battle conditions in various parts of the city, whether it was the "anti-teleportation spell tower" or the internal and external city walls.
The structure is well marked.
"The fifth team takes over from the third team, and the seventh team covers the third team... Third team, you have lost half of your manpower, retreat immediately!"
"Assault Brigade, use your fastest speed to defeat the man operating the city-breaking heavy crossbow from the side. After seizing the heavy crossbow, launch an attack towards the rear of the enemy's formation."
"Quartermaster, send the last batch of wands in the warehouse to the city wall... Don't ask any questions. The legion commander has authorized me, just do as I say!"
At this time, Finn Byron was talking to a strange communication object that looked like a small iron box, constantly switching communication objects, and paying close attention to the movements of each legion's hands on the crystal instrument.
At the circular table under the crystal instrument, there are legion mages who are proficient in the prophecy system. They are responsible for reporting the situation on the battlefield. More than a dozen mouths are talking loudly one after another. If it were ordinary people, their brains would be boiling with irritation. Fen
Byron was highly focused, and his ears did not miss any byte.
"Legion Commander, there have been many riots in the city. Not only the civilians, but also some guards have switched sides and launched an attack on the Mantra Tower!" A message came.
Finn Byron looked at the crystal instrument, and the icons representing the "Anti-Teleportation Spell Tower" flashed one after another. He said towards the teleportation rare object: "Stick to the Spell Tower everywhere, and the high mages of the legion will eliminate the riots one by one from the outside to the inside.
"
"Acting Governor, we have captured Daquiba."
"Caught?" Fen Byron had just given the order when he heard the prophecy mage's report. He became alert and asked: "Where was he caught? Did he resist?"
"The news is that he was intercepted at a gate leading to the inner city. He seemed to be injured."
Fen Byron frowned and said, "Bring him here, I want to see him with my own eyes."
Not long after, two legionnaires brought Daquiba. His face was still bruised and swollen from being hit with a blunt object. He was so groggy that he needed two soldiers to drag him to Finn Byron.
"Torture him here!" Finn Byron found a "Thought Detection" wand from his pocket and threw it to the mysterious knight who was guarding him.
The Mysterious Knight took the wand, went up and slapped Daquiba directly, which shocked his body. The effect of "exploring thoughts" penetrated his whole body. Finn Byron asked in a majestic tone: "What on earth do you have with Dr. Olenso?"
Relationship? Tell me!"
Daquiba, who was lifted up by the collar by two soldiers, had metal gauntlet marks on his face and bleeding from the corners of his mouth. He looked very embarrassed. But when he heard Fen Byron's words, he smiled, which was nothing like him.
He was the one who was arrested and tortured.
"If you had asked me a few days ago, I might have been able to answer... Now, I don't know what to say."
"Speak quickly!" The Secret Knight was obviously used to torture. He punched Daquiba hard in the abdomen and beat him until he opened his mouth and retched.
"Haha... cough, cough, hahaha -" Dakiba was not disturbed at all, as if the heavy beating was just to tickle himself, his body was hunched and he laughed loudly: "He really wants to kill me, really
Want to kill me!"
When Finn Byron heard this, he asked with a gloomy face: "Did Dr. Olenso instruct you to inquire about the Imperial Legion?"
"You haven't figured it out yet, have you? A high-level psychic, why do you need to send extra manpower to spy?" Dakiba looked crazy and happy: "I don't even remember when I was controlled by him. , maybe some of you have become his puppets and don’t even know it!”
As soon as Daquiba said these words, everyone around him immediately looked at each other on guard, fearing that an "acid arrow" or "lightning beam" would be shot from a corner that they could not see.
"Don't be provoked by him!" Finn Byron had a flash of thought, and immediately came to his senses. He glared at Daquiba and said, "Where is Olanso hiding? If you choose to cooperate with the Imperial Legion, we can hire the best alchemist. The magician and the magic control mage will heal your soul!"
"No, no, no, it's too late." Daquiba's eyes seemed to be immersed in a sea of chaos. His pupils never focused on anyone. He said, "You should be like me and experience this ultimate chaos. .
My thoughts and habits were disintegrated into pieces. When I looked back on my life, I found that there were countless moments, countless choices, and countless paths presented to me. Unfortunately, I could only obey my own instincts and my own will. Desire, obeying the various constraints imposed on me by the environment, finally led me to this ending... My destiny has come to an end."
"Answer seriously!" The mysterious knight in charge of the torture gave Daquiba a hard kick, crushing Daquiba's ankle bone.
"Hahahaha - have fun, have fun! There is another side, step on it, step on it! Hahahaha -" Dakiba let out a sharp laugh, his madness made everyone present feel extremely weird, it didn't look like they were here When they tortured Dakiba, it seemed like Dakiba was examining them.
"What does it mean that your destiny has come to an end?" Only Fenbyron heard a hint of confusion in Daquiba's words.
Only then did Dakiba show a serious expression and said: "Fin Byron, Secretary of Staff, Acting Governor, the person you are about to face has thinking and cognitive abilities that are beyond ordinary people. He wants to pursue and explore." Things are by no means something that can be surmised by those who dwell on victory and defeat."
Finn Byron asked in a slow tone: "Then what does he want?"
"Well, if I had to say it, it would probably be...'transcendence', right?"
As soon as Daqiba finished speaking, a mysterious poetic rhyme carrying sword intent and accompanied by the breeze came straight in from the outside world——
"Three corpses are quarreling, six thieves are moving, the devil breaks free from the golden shackles. You are such a sinister and evil body, it seems that I can't keep you!"
These words were not in common language, and only Dakiba understood them. Fenbyron guessed that they were some kind of mantra, and immediately shouted: "Be careful! Someone has broken in! Close all the gates!"
In order to resist Nelem's attack, there are no high mages stationed around the communication crystal tower where Finn Byron is now. After his order, the gates with protective spells in the communication crystal tower fell one after another.
Between the corridors or halls divided by thick gates, the "Heavy Mist" spell that was laid out in advance releases a large amount of dense clouds and mist. Anyone within the range of the "Heavy Mist" will feel trapped in the mud and unable to run quickly. OK, even if you can fly it will be affected!
"Hurry up and detect where he is!" Finn Byron said to the prophecy mage beside him. As the core monitoring room of the communication crystal tower, this room can provide buff effects for all prophecy arcana spells, including various positioning and detection.
, remote viewing, can break through the immunity ability more effectively.
More than a dozen prophecy mages contacted various places inside and outside the communication crystal tower to detect spells and prophecy crystals. They scanned every space blocked by the gates and found no outsiders.
There was deathly silence in the control room. Only Dakiba let out a crazy, harsh laugh and knelt on the spot, being held up by two soldiers to prevent him from falling down.
Finn Byron was aroused by the laughter, and a vague idea opened up: "Wait a minute, why did you catch this person at this time? If Dr. Olanso understands the current war situation in Huowu City, then he
They should go to support Nelem, or at least wreak havoc in the city.
This person seems to have been specially sent to my door, but what's the purpose behind it? Olanso's superficial actions often hide deeper strategies. He should have expected that I would close the gate of the communication crystal tower, close it,
closure……"
Fenbyron slowly turned around to face Daquiba, but his eyes turned to the two legionnaires holding Daquiba, and one of them showed a faint smile.
"It's you--"
Fenbyron had just noticed the abnormality, but before he could say anything, Daquiba's body turned into a crystal sculpture in the blink of an eye, and then he was pushed out with a gentle palm.
The crystallized body then exploded into pieces, scattering crystals all over the sky. The "Crystal Hail Technique" formed thousands of sword-shaped crystal fragments, which scattered in the control room.
In an instant, crystals were like waterfalls and swords were like tides. In the small room, colorful brilliance, crystal light roared, and swords rained down. In just one breath, the crystal sword light directly harvested the lives of almost everyone in the control room, and everyone was
There were dozens and hundreds of crystal swords embedded in them, and the sudden and intensive attack directly killed more than a dozen mages present.
"What a pity. If you close the 'Anti-Teleportation Spell Tower', at least a few people here can escape through the teleportation spells prepared in advance."
A layer of film seemed to slowly melt away on the two legionnaires, revealing Xuan Weizi and Wolf. In the monitoring room covered with sword marks, except for the two of them, only Fen Byron was left unscathed.
Sitting next to the circular table, he looked at the miserable situation around him with a stunned expression.
There were several mysterious knights with strong physiques. Dozens of solid crystal sword lights penetrated their limbs and torsos. They did not die immediately. They were nailed to the wall and tried to struggle. Blood was left all over the floor. They wanted to speak but couldn't help but spit out.
Bright red blood clots appeared and he gradually died.
Xuan Weizi raised his hand and looked at the subtle aura swirling around his fingertips. It was the sword intention that condensed all psychic powers. It was a purer and more subtle psychic power than the embodied mind blade weapon.
Fen Byron suppressed his inner uneasiness and fear. His fingertips touched the blood overflowing on the table. He did not dare to look at the prophecy mage next to him who had half of his skull cut off by the crystal sword light. He asked: "Are you?
How did you get in? There are multiple detection spells at the entrance of the communication crystal tower. It is impossible to rely on spells to disguise yourself and enter."
"At this time, are you still thinking of making excuses?" Xuan Weizi smiled and said: "Forget it, I came to see you, so there's no harm in talking... I just used the astral body to absorb two legions.
After the soldier's life information has been changed, even under the 'True Seeing Technique' and 'Secret Vision', no flaws can be seen."
I think that Xuan Weizi used this trick to sneak into the Banzoo tribe and kill Tu Randi. Now that he has advanced in cultivation, he can easily deceive the original owner's life information by using the astral body's transformational energy.
Pass detection spell.
Unless it is enveloped by the "anti-magic field" and directly disintegrates the astral body covering transformation, we can only rely on our familiarity with the original owner to see if there are any flaws.
"No wonder, no wonder..." Fen Byron said with a slight chin trembling: "You have this kind of ability. If you want to assassinate someone, almost no one can stop you."
"Maybe, but can assassination solve all problems? Not necessarily?" Xuan Weizi asked with a smile.
Fenbyron nodded dejectedly and said: "Yes, the operation that took several years to assassinate Nelem failed in the end, didn't it? The battle outside the city now is exactly the price of the failed assassination."
Xuan Weizi said, "Not necessarily. If I hadn't intervened, Nelem would have died."
"What should I say?" Finn Byron suddenly became interested, and his tone sounded like he was talking to an old friend.
"When you carried out the assassination and were about to succeed, I gave Nelem a bottle of 'life-extending elixir' in advance, which unexpectedly enhanced his body functions and successfully broke free. This was the first time." Xuan Weizi stood up.
He raised his hands and said, "After Nelem escaped, you activated the 'Anti-Teleportation Spell Tower' in the whole city. If I hadn't discovered Nelem first and took him to escape into the sewers, you would have deployed defenses all over the city."
, he will probably be discovered, this is the second time.”
Finn Byron thought seriously and said: "Even if he can escape our search, sooner or later the legion commander will use his mistress and children as a threat to force Nelem to show up. Without your help, Nelem will be jailed."
This is the third time I have fallen into a trap."
"I even said that if I don't save Nelem later and face Fusman and the Imperial Legion fighting with all their strength, he will probably be in trouble. But looking at his greedy and fearful character, if he really can't fight,
He will probably run away." Xuan Weizi said with a smile.
Fenbyron heard an ominous meaning in these words and asked: "Don't you plan to rescue Nelem?"
"It's hard to say, it depends on the situation." Xuan Weizi shrugged with his hands spread.
"It depends on the situation? What situation does it depend on?" Finn Byron asked.
Xuan Weizi said seriously: "Use thinking instead of asking questions. I don't like to have to answer everything."
In this situation, Finn Byron really seemed like a good student. As if he was back in the classroom at Hastings University, facing the teacher's question, Finn Byron murmured to himself:
"Judging from the situation in which you rescued Master Nelum, it seems that you yourself do not intend to take the initiative in everything, but rather use the power of others to achieve your goals, even just superficial goals.
Master Nelum got your help this time and regained Fire Dance City. He will definitely reuse you in the future. But you are not in a hurry to rescue Master Nelum now, which means that the current situation of Master Nelum is not what you think.
Happy to see.
So what exactly is the situation? First of all, you definitely still need the living Master Nelum, because he represents the interests of the Pentagram Tower. I guess this is what you need in the future. And you are using our Forsman Army
Long, he..."
When Fen Byron thought of this, his face changed in shock and he said: "Are you going to let the legion commander eliminate Nelem's forces and kill all his children?!"
Xuan Weizi clapped gently and said, "It's indeed good. He is indeed the talent I value."
