Master, why must we be reasonable?

Sika had been cultivating on the 17th floor of the magical tower for the past few days and had not been by Saleen’s side. Nailisi had been sticking to Saleen.

Because I can’t possibly conquer the whole world. It can’t even be done by the Lord of Glory. Most of the time, I have to choose to work with people, or other people will work together to deal with me. Before this, I overcame all kinds of calamities and a few life or death crises. Me being able to survive was due to the fact that the enemies were fighting the battles by themselves and did not work together to deal with me.

Saleen paused.
Now, even if I want to kill and conquer cities, I need to have a reason. Then, if people talk about it in the future, they will not criticize me for being a tyrant. They will only say that I came to help Lex to seek revenge. Like that, when others work with me, they will not have any misgivings because I am an unreasonable person.


Of course Master is reasonable.
Nailisi chuckled. Saleen had become reasonable, but by a mage’s definition of reason.


The Magical Element Tower flew to the skies of Pompeii City. Even though it was at an altitude of 3,000 meters, it was still discovered by the magical towers in the city and triggered the magic alarms.
Saleen saw the panic in the city and felt emotional. At the beginning when he and Lex had passed through, they had to be very careful. Now that he had come again, the other side’s anxious appearance formed a distinct contrast.

Let’s land over there,
Saleen pointed at the square in the east part of the city. The water puppet Rossen, who had grasped the flight of the magical tower, used an almost rough method to make the Magical Element Tower descend.
From an altitude of 3,000 meters, the Magical Element Tower smashed into the ground in an upright position. Inside the magical tower, the tremors could not be felt, but outside was not the same. The huge impact smashed a 500-meter hole in front of Pompeii City’s monument.
Fragments flew everywhere, casualties were scattered, and nearly all patrolling soldiers were killed. The symbol of Pompeii City, the huge memorial, was also on the verge of destruction from the magical tower’s descent and slanted towards the west.
The big guy took a step out from the magical tower, using the puppet’s characteristic metal sound to shout,
Grand Duke Pompeii, hand over your son!

The big guy’s yell was transmitted over hundreds of li, so Grand Duke Pompeii was able to hear it. However, the ones who quickly came before the Magical Element Tower were two mages.
The two mages were not holding magic staves and wore red magic robes. When Saleen saw the two mages, he laughed coldly.
Alchemy City is really willing to part with their capital. These two are actually level 10 mages, but we don’t know what measures they used to advance to the position. Nailisi, we can each kill one.


Master, why is that necessary? With the presence of the demonic spirits, we can test out 3,600 high level magic spells and see if they can kill two level 10 mages.
Nailisi gave a sinister smile. The demonic spirits’ mental strength was roughly enough to release six to seven of the strongest magic attacks. Of the Magical Element Tower’s might, the strongest mode had not yet been released, so they could use the two amges to test it out.

That’s true.
Saleen realized there was no need for him to waste mental power. If he did not use the demonic spirits, it would be a waste. Having 3,600 demonic spirits who could attack simultaneously was precisely the most horrifying parts of the Magical Element Tower.



You must be Your Majesty Saleen.
The two red robed mages used sound transmission magic, sending their voices to the high altitude, but Saleen ignored them. He let the big guy communicate with the two mages on his behalf.

Mages, this situation does not concern you. The enmity is between a king and a duke.

The two mages glanced at one another and laughed.
We are Grand Duke Pompeii’s personal mages. You are trespassing on the Grand Duke’s territory. Are you trying to provoke a war?


Indeed, didn’t you know of this a long time ago? My troops have already occupied Pompeii’s city and killed tens of thousands of soldiers. Why are you still asking such a childish question?


Your Majesty Saleen, you are a mage. We can use a mage’s methods to solve this situation,
the level 10 mage baited Saleen.
The big guy continued to faithfully speak for Salee.
Alright, then let’s use a mage’s methods.

After it finished speaking, the big guy leaped up to the magical tower’s 16th floor and went through it. On the magical tower’s upper six floors, huge metal machinery grew, forming gears that started to rotate. The two level 10 mages frowned, not knowing what Saleen wanted to do. They could smell the scent of danger.
3,600 magic spells were simultaneously released from the peak of the Magical Element Tower, aggressively bombarding the two mages. The magic attack was not as intense as a magic cannon and did not result in any elemental resonance. The more terrifying thing was that under normal circumstances, it was impossible for one person’s body to bear such a concentrated attack. There was no way that so many mages could release magic spells from the same position, and it was even more impossible for them to all be targeted towards the same person.
In front of such a terrifying magical construction, highly concentrated attacks had become the norm. The magic spells of 3,600 demonic spirits descended at the same time. The two mages, who had advanced with great difficulty using secret methods, had not even tasted the sweetness of strength before they were blasted into dust.
The large stone tablet behind the mages vanished with them. A 100-meter cavity appeared in front of the Magical Element Tower. The effects of the attack of the magic spells was horrific. All of them were level 7 and above and had black magic flames. The large magic power furnace started up, providing unmatched levels of energy to the magic net.


Only then was Saleen satisfied.
This is precisely a mage’s method.

Saleen memorized the two level 10 mages’ deaths. The scene did not instill much joy in people. Every demonic spirit’s combat ability was equivalent to ordinary swordmasters, and there were some demonic spirits whose combat ability was at the level of a high level swordsman. But within the magic net, the demonic spirits had broken out with the power of a sorcerer.
The level 10 mages’ magic shields were weaker than paper under the bombardment of thousands of high level magic spells. A magic shield that was able to block a magic cannon’s attack could not even hold out for one second before it was destroyed by the concentrated high level magic spells. If it had been Saleen who had encountered the attack, he would have also been unable to take it, unless his territories were all opened, causing the magic spells to be unable to express their might.
It looked like he had made the right choice by refining a territory as quickly as possible. If the two level 10 sorcerers possessed the power of a territory, their deaths would not have been so quick. They could have been able to hold out for about 10 seconds.
The nearby magical tower saw the attack, and everyone who had seen it became solemn. Saleen’s Magical Element Tower caused them to lose hope of victory.
The attack was too powerful. It was so powerful that it broke the laws of balance.
The two level 10 mages were not the strongest people in Pompeii City, but they were level 10 mages. Within less than a second, they had been vaporized by Saleen’s attack. What if it had been them? Everyone thought about it.

Shouldn’t someone come and converse with me? I guarantee that I will use a mage’s method.
Saleen’s voice was conveyed through the magical tower, enveloping the whole city.
In a 10 floor magical tower in the centre of Pompeii City, Grand Duke Pompeii broke out in sweat as he stood in front of a red robed mage.

Master, please save my city!
Grand Duke Pompeii was not wearing an aristocrat’s outfit, but was clad in soft armor. The armor was lined with a layer of silk armor. He was dressed completely in a military outfit. Originally, he was prepared to assemble his troops and attack New Demon City once more. He never thought that Saleen would come right to his doorstep.


Coming right to his doorstep did not matter, but Saleen was actually strong. With one magical tower, he had suppressed the whole city. It made Grand Duke Pompeii despair, but no matter what, he could not bear to give up his position, city, and his large number of people.
The red robed mage in front of him appeared to be aged, with a head full of grey and a grey beard. The mage had wrinkles, and its strange shape made it appear as if it were a natural magic pattern. The mage sat there, seeming more powerful than the two level 10 mages combined. The power emanating from his entire body flowed all over the magical tower, causing the energy in the magical tower to flow even faster.
Hearing Grand Duke Pompeii’s plea, the elderly mage laughed.
Grand Duke, since the Elemental Hand has allowed me to come and help you, they will not let you die. If you don’t die, you can have a few more sons.


Master!


Can’t bear it? That Saleen coming today is because of the misfortune stirred up by your son. Since this is the case, I will go and ask. If handing over your son is not enough to let him leave, I will think of other ways,
the elderly mage spoke mildly.
Grand Duke Pompeii gritted his teeth.
Then I will listen to the Master’s instructions.

The elderly mage used sound transmission magic to talk to the distant Saleen,
Saleen, right? I am the Elemental Hand’s Kang Bai. May I ask, the Grand Duke’s son has not caused your wife any substantial harm, so why do you want to bring a killing spree?


Killing spree? Kang Bai, I think you are sick in the head. Not killing anyone when taking revenge? Don’t tell me I must also help him to establish a city. It is said that Pompeii City has a population of one million, and I killed less than a hundred. If you really want me to go on a killing spree, then I will fulfill your request.

Sorcerer Kang Bai’s facial expression immediately turned much uglier, but he said,
I also respect Her Majesty Lex, and since nothing actually happened to her…

Saleen interrupted Kang Bai.
The Grand Duke’s son wanted to capture my wife. Based on your intention, as long as nothing really happened, it does not matter? In that case, Lex was also a grand mage, so it was an insult to a mage’s dignity. If as long as nothing was done means that there should be no hatred, then if I went to capture the Grand Duke’s wife now, before she has been captured, all of you would not be allowed to act against me, what would you think?



Kang Bai was speechless. Saleen did not have any intention of conversing further. Since he had used a projected voice to speak, at least 10,000 people would have heard the conversation. It would not matter if he used his own means to solve the matter. Grand Duke Pompeii had suffered enough humiliation.
The problem was that Saleen’s anger was understandable to any mage, and none of them would feel that Saleen was going overboard.

Furthermore, Lex is of royal blood and her surname is Grukos. Grand Duke Pompeii can still be considered a Qin aristocrat. His son has committed an offense. My arrival today is with the intention of exterminating his whole house. The Elemental Hand really wants to stand in between and block me?
Saleen suddenly changed the subject and targeted Alchemy City.
Saleen’s words were putting Alchemy City at odds with the Grukos royal family. Kang Bai could not bring Prince Safilos up. Doing so was tantamount to him creating a divide. All of the Qin people would hate him.
Some things could only be done and not said.
