Chapter 249: Being attacked from both sides!
Once the "Evil God's Egg" destroys the ancient wizard array, the academy wizard array responsible for guarding the Nine Rings White Tower Branch will turn into a cage and try its best to prevent the "Evil God's Egg" from leaving.
At the same time, he strives for time for the tower master who is far away on the mainland to come, build the seal again, and suppress the "Evil God's Egg".
In other words, this Nine Rings White Tower Branch is, in essence, a prison disguised as an academy, and the "Egg of the Evil God" is the felon imprisoned in it!
If even the Academy Wizard Array is destroyed before the Nine-ring White Tower Master arrives, the "Evil God's Egg" that escapes the seal and is no longer restricted will completely destroy the Star Tree Islands! No one can escape!
But for thousands of years, the seal of this Nine-ring White Pagoda Branch has always been stable, and there is no possibility of being destroyed.
All this is due to the plan made by the master of the Nine Rings White Pagoda when he established the branch of the Nine Rings White Pagoda.
On weekdays, only those who hold the Nine-ring White Tower Apprentice Badge that matches their identity can enter the academy.
Although ordinary apprentices of the Nine-ring White Tower can enter and leave the academy freely, they are not qualified to enter the secret world.
Only fifth-level instructors can enter and leave the secret world on weekdays, but each time they enter or leave, they need to activate at least two gold badges at the same time to open the passage to the secret world.
And every time he enters and exits the secret world, other fifth-level instructors can know about it.
In addition, under normal circumstances, the apprenticeship examination is held during the sleeping period of the "evil of the evil god", that is, the period when the strange power is stable.
The apprentices who died in it would provide more energy to the ancient wizard array that sealed the "Egg of the Evil God" than to stimulate and enhance the strange sleeping power.
But once it is in the active period of the "evil of the evil god", that is, the period of explosion of weird power, the situation will be reversed.
The power and soul contained in the body of an apprentice who dies in the secret world will be captured and devoured by the "Evil God's Egg" that awakens and tries to break through the seal!
This is also the reason why the apprentice exam will be held during the sleeping period of the "Egg of the Evil God".
However, right now, the secret world that should be in a stable period has somehow entered an explosive period ahead of schedule.
Thinking of this, Simon took action again to clear away the hundreds of shadows of the dead that were attacking around him.
The number of shadows of the dead was almost endless. In just a short moment, hundreds of shadows of the dead appeared again in the surrounding darkness. Simon frowned and said, "Get
out of here first!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Simon's figure flashed. , disappeared together with Audlina.
Just as the two of them rushed to the depths of the secret world at an astonishing speed of hundreds of meters per second, where the "Egg of the Evil God" was located.
Audlina quickly said through the audio channel with Simon:
"Simon, before the apprenticeship exam started, I checked the ancient wizard array where the 'Evil God's Egg' was sealed. There was no problem there. Could it be that , was the ancient sealing witchcraft array just destroyed by Petain who sneaked into the secret world?" "
But that ancient witchcraft formation, whose personality far exceeds that of ordinary formal wizards, is not something that a fifth-level apprentice can destroy. If it had been destroyed just now, the secret world would The strange power in the body will not surge to the current level in just a few moments!"
Hearing Audlina's pointed words, Simon's voice was a little cold and said:
"Now it seems that that guy Pétain has been around since March. Months, no, three years ago, or even thirty years ago, they took action against the ancient seal witch formation. Although I had thought that there might be a problem with the 'egg of the evil god' before, after checking that the seal was not loose, I Let’s not go into details anymore—”
“After all, the other colleges’ siege on the Nine-ring White Tower is just a struggle for interests between the colleges. I believe that except for the seven fifth-level instructors in the college, people from other colleges have no idea about the ‘Egg of the Evil God’. I don’t know.”
“In other words, the main purpose of these colleges uniting to attack the Nine Rings White Tower branch is more likely to occupy and carve up the Star Tree Islands, which was originally the apprentice resource area of the Nine Rings White Tower!”
When Simon said this, he seemed to realize something. He paused for a moment and then continued:
"But if the 'Egg of the Evil God' breaks the seal, the entire Star Tree Islands and hundreds of millions of mortals will die."
"With such consequences, even the official wizard tower masters or deans behind several wizard academies will be severely punished by the Wizards Council, or even publicly executed!" "There is no time to think about it now. We have suffered heavy losses in this apprenticeship examination
. Apprentices, the seal of the 'Evil God's Egg' is related to the survival of the entire Star Tree Islands. Let's go to the depths of the secret world first to check the seal!" However, just as
Simon finished transmitting the message, between Simon and Rudolf, Odd In Lina's audio channel, the short and urgent voice of Rudolf, who was outside at the moment, sounded:
"Simon, Audlina, how are you two progressing? The outside world may not be able to hold on for too long!" "
Now the academy Here, there are only three fifth-level wizard apprentices, Selina and Ganon, who I just contacted. The group of apprentices from the hostile academy seemed to realize that the academy’s defense strength was empty, and took the opportunity to come and attack!" Hearing Rudolph's
answer , Although Simon had already expected that Petain would be connected with the group of hostile academy apprentices, his face still darkened.
The group of hostile academy apprentices who attacked the academy from the outside world numbered close to twenty, and they were all fifth-class apprentices.
With the strength of Rudolph's three fifth-level apprentices alone, even if they relied on the academy's wizard formation as a barrier, it would be difficult to survive the opponent's intensive attacks for too long.
Without having time to respond to Rudolph, Simon and Audlina, moving at full speed, crossed a distance of tens of thousands of meters in just a moment and reached the depths of the secret world - the place where the "Egg of the Evil God" is sealed
. entrance.
Just before Simon and Simon were about to enter the ancient seal witch formation, Rudolf's somewhat panicked voice came again:
"Something's wrong. The automatic counterattack mechanism of the academy wizard array frequently fails. Audlina, please check the academy wizard array quickly." !"
Rudolph's words made Simon and Audlina's expressions darken.
As a rival academy with a numerical advantage and more than a dozen fifth-level apprentices, the academy's wizard formation was their biggest reliance and there was no room for failure.
But in the recent short period of less than a quarter of an hour, due to the tight time limit, Audlina did not have time to check the academy wizard array.
Without any time to waste, Audlina immediately used her authority to connect her spirit to the academy wizard array.
"How?"
After hearing the inquiry, Audlina's face darkened and she said bluntly:
"There is a pitch-black force entrenched in the nodes of the academy's wizard array, constantly interfering with the operation of the academy's wizard array. These forces should be the 'Evil God's Power'" The power leaked from the egg!"
"The strange power in the secret world is transformed, just like a pebble falling into a rotating gear. As long as it exists, it will affect the academy wizard array, and even cause loopholes in the academy wizard array." "I want
to In order for the academy wizard array to return to normal, we must eliminate all these strange powers entrenched in the academy wizard array as soon as possible!" Simon's eyes flashed and he said bluntly: "Is
there
a way to solve it?"
Audlina nodded at this.
"It can be solved, it just needs to stay where it is and take a certain amount of time!"
Just when Simon was about to reply to Audlina. A long bloody dragon stretching for tens of meters, with lightning speed, sprang out from the passage leading to the "Egg of the Evil God" sealing place. It suddenly crashed into the wizard who concentrated his consciousness on processing and entrenched himself in the academy wizard formation. Audrina of jet black power.
Simon, who was always wary of his surroundings, immediately noticed the existence of the bloody dragon. He snorted coldly and suddenly threw the black coffin behind him at the bloody dragon.
The next second, the black coffin collided with the long bloody dragon that was flying halfway.
boom!
Along with the deafening explosion, an astonishing impact spread, even breaking all the surrounding trees within a hundred meters.
When the power dissipated, blood rained down from the sky.
"Come out, Petain."
"Haha, is my witchcraft still too conspicuous?"
As soon as he finished speaking, Simon and Audlina had been looking for the boy-like "Blood Maker" Petain with blond hair and red eyes. When, finally appeared in front of the two of them.
——What
everyone doesn’t know is that long before Simon ended his retreat and the time in the secret realm entered the daytime period, Melkor, under the guidance of five Masonic apprentices, went to the area around the giant lumen stone veins and strangled Rey, Gabriel and other apprentices. time point -
located in a secret world, in a cave full of corpses.
Melkor used the space ring given to him by his mentor to take out the items he had prepared in advance.
There were many extremely precious high-level materials among them. Even in the end, Melkor even took out an owl-shaped golden badge unique to the fifth-level instructor of the Nine-ring White Tower Branch!
At first glance, there seems to be nothing special about this gold badge.
But if Simon, Rudolph and other fifth-level instructors are present.
He could instantly recognize that the owl badge that appeared in Melkor's hand, symbolizing the status of a fifth-level mentor, was exactly the one held by Larov, the headmaster of the Nine-ring White Tower branch who disappeared a few months ago. !
At the previous fifth-level tutor meeting in the college, several fifth-level tutors asked Petain about the whereabouts of the superintendent Larov.
Before his disappearance, Branch President Larov was seen acting together with "Blood Maker" Petain.
Therefore, most of the other fifth-level instructors in the college suspected that the disappearance of branch director Larov was related to Petain.
At that time, Petain replied that the branch director Larov was going to retreat, but he came back early.
Although everyone has doubts about the authenticity of Petain's words, there is no definite evidence in hand, and there is no obvious loophole in Petain's explanation that Larov disappeared in retreat.
It is true that Branch Dean Larov often enters a state of seclusion, and it is not uncommon for him not to be seen even once in several years.
Everyone's suspicion of Pétain could only end in vain.
Now it seems that since the captain of the company, Larov, is wearing it, the golden badge that has partial authority over the academy's wizard array has fallen into the hands of Melkor.
Obviously, the situation of Branch Director Larov is precarious. Even if he is still alive, he is now no different from death.
After a while, under Melkor's operation, a temporary teleportation witch formation was built with the golden badge of the Nine-ring White Tower branch director Larov as the core and supplemented by a large number of precious materials. It appeared here. In a cave in a secret world.
Without any hesitation, Melkor successfully built a temporary teleportation witch formation, quickly mobilized his magic power, and whispered a spell to draw the power of the golden badge.
After a while, the temporary teleportation witch formation in front of Melkor emitted a strange scarlet light.
The corpses of a large number of dead apprentices on the ground were also drained of blood by this temporary teleportation witch formation at an alarming speed and turned into mummies.
A few minutes later, when the scarlet light in the cave disappeared, the temporary teleportation witch formation built by Melkor was completely destroyed.
The young "Blood Maker" Petain, who had blond hair and red eyes and wore a red robe, and another fifth-level wizard apprentice from the merchant navy, had already appeared in the cave.
After coming back to his senses, Petain glanced at his surroundings and saw no one except Melkor and the thin fifth-level apprentice who followed him.
Petain took a deep breath, with a look of excitement in his eyes:
"Huh, we have finally waited for this moment. The plan is going very smoothly so far."
In fact, when Petain plotted to subvert the Nine-ring White Tower, just as Simon guessed That was way earlier than three months ago.
In fact, Petain conspired to overthrow the Nine-ring White Tower even before he became the fifth-level instructor of the Nine-ring White Tower branch in the Star Tree Islands!
In the decades since he became the fifth-level instructor of the Nine Rings White Tower Branch, Petain has always worked diligently and never showed a hint of betrayal.
After decades of camouflage, Pétain finally figured out the details of this Nine-ring White Tower branch step by step, and gained the trust of other fifth-level instructors and even the branch dean.
And after hundreds of trials.
Pétain finally quietly created a tiny loophole in the seal when he entered the secret world more than ten years ago.
After realizing that other beings in the academy were unaware of the tiny loophole that he had created.
In the following time, Petain began to continuously strengthen and enhance this vulnerability.
This loophole can ostensibly enhance the effect of the ancient wizard array that seals the "Egg of the Evil God" deep in the secret world.
But in fact, it is constantly absorbing, allowing the "Evil God's Egg" to escape and impact the power of the ancient wizard array.
And it broke out at the critical moment, destroying the early warning measures behind the ancient wizard array in one fell swoop, and tearing a hole in the seal at the same time.
This is the real reason why the seal of the Apprentice Examination is now loose, the power of the Egg of the Evil God is leaked, and the outbreak has entered early.
"Melkor, you are indeed my most proud disciple. You have done a good job."
Hearing Melkor's rare approval, Melkor, who had black hair and red eyes and a cold face, forced a smile.
"Thank you for the compliment, mentor."
Without any nonsense, Petain once again ordered Melkor:
"Melkor, you will carry out the original plan. As for what the plan is, I don't need to say more?" "
This is natural. ”
