Pallas Floating City.
The Duke of Redstone stood alone, looking blankly at the wizards cleaning the ruins of the tower, and everyone around him dared not approach him.
"teacher."
Montalin appeared in front of him and gave a respectful cry.
The Duke of Redstone turned his head and glanced at him, then asked quietly, "Is the loss counted?"
"Yes."
Montalin reported with a sad face: "This attack resulted in 396 deaths, of which 38 were passengers and mechanical craftsmen on two magic airships, 45 were residents who were killed in various parts of the city, and the remaining 313 people... …"
When he said that, he watched the teacher's face carefully, and saw that the teacher's expression hadn't changed before he continued: "Most of these 313 people are teachers and students of the Magic Academy. They could not escape in time when the tower exploded and collapsed."
Duke Redstone's heart twitched fiercely.
Pallas Floating City dominates the entire northern prairie. Its real fief area is more than ten times larger than that of other dukes. It almost monopolizes the trade routes between the north and northwest of the empire. It has huge mineral resources and unscrupulously searched for foreign taxes on the grassland. , So the financial resources are strong, richer than Netherdu.
Relying on the unimaginable wealth of ordinary people, Pallas Floating City recruited students widely, invested resources regardless of cost, and trained a large number of wizards.
After more than two hundred years of accumulation, the Pallas Wizard had more than 1,000 people, second only to Nether, and second among all floating cities.
Before the Undead Scourge, Wezeland had at most more than 500 wizards.
This is also the capital that Pallas dares to compete with Wezeland.
Now, more than 300 wizards have been killed in a single attack, a reduction of nearly one-third, and years of investment and hard work are all in vain, and the losses cannot be described as heavy.
The Duke of Redstone felt blood dripping in his heart.
The loss of the North Tower is dominated by wizards.
Nanta is his magic laboratory and warehouse. It stores wealth worth more than 50 million golden shields, including countless alchemy materials, magic souls, potions and precious magic items. Even if a part of it can be rescued, the lost ones will still let People can't bear it.
Many things cannot be bought with money, and their value is incalculable.
Pallas's overall strength is at least 50 years back.
In the next few years, it will be necessary to invest millions of golden shields to repair the control array of the core of Eola. Pallas landed on the ground. The core of Eola cannot be used. The magical protection of the floating city is invalid. I wonder how many enemies will be attracted. Spy in secret.
Pallas suffered such a severe blow, and his personal prestige was also affected, especially at the moment when he had just been promoted to one of the empire's Big Three, as if he had been slapped severely and lost his face.
The Duke of Redstone became more angry as he thought about it.
Obviously just half a month ago, everything went smoothly. According to the plan, he will lead the two floating cities of Pallas and Nether to become the leader of the Nether faction and rule the empire.
However, things took a turn for the worse.
Not only did Nether Floating City fail, but his Pallas also suffered.
Who the is it?
The handsome face of a young man immediately appeared in the head of the Duke of Redstone, his anger surged, and even the truth and the will could not be suppressed, and he whispered in a deep voice: "Rene Augustus!"
Since the first time he heard of this name, Duke Redstone was very upset, because Rennes broke his record as the youngest legendary wizard, but he didn't particularly care.
Later, he kept listening to people talking about this man.
With all kinds of heroic deeds and unprecedented cultivation speed, people always compare Rennes with themselves. As a great holy soul wizard and the first genius in history, he has become a stepping stone for a little boy.
The more times he was compared, his impression of Renn became worse and worse, even if he had never seen it before.
Then there was the opening ceremony of the Wizarding Exchange.
Rennes was once again in the limelight. The Duke of Redstone did not personally watch Renne's battle with Elder Nether, but from the video recording the battle, he judged at a glance that Renne had the will to truth just like himself.
This made the Duke of Redstone feel threatened, and he became hostile before seeing him.
When he saw it in person, Rehn broke the big plan he had prepared for many years when he saw it in person. He also threatened him in front of the holy soul wizards and humiliated him. He had never encountered such a big one in his life. frustration.
On that day, he swore in his heart that Renn would never give up if he died.
And it won't let Renne die easily.
However, the Duke of Redstone didn't do anything immediately when he returned to Pallas, he had more important things to do, and liquidating Rennes's hatred came in the back.
Rennes hated him very much. The Duke of Redstone had never hated anyone so much, but he had to admit that Rennes had extremely strong talents and strengths, faintly surpassing himself, and he was backed by Wezeland and Anse Verdaus, even if he was The thirty-third-level holy soul wizard also had to be a little jealous.
What worries him the most is that Rennes is sheltered by the goddess of magic and cannot easily start.
So the Duke of Redstone chose to forbear temporarily.
As long as that thing succeeds, even if Renn is promoted to the holy soul wizard, even if Renn is a student of Anse Waldos, even if Renn has the grace of the goddess of magic, killing Ren by then will be nothing more than for himself. A trivial thing is as easy as killing an ant.
However, the whole plan was disrupted.
Today's attack stalled the plan for at least five years, and he was seriously injured. He was unable to retaliate until the floating city re-rised.
This is a coincidence.
As soon as he and Rennes had a feud, Pallas was hit hard and his vitality was severely injured.
The Duke of Redstone couldn't help but wonder whether Renn did all this?
When Montalin heard the name he said, his heart jumped and he was shocked: "Teacher, was the Earl of Glamorgan attacked Pallas?"
He has not seen the wizard who is now the most popular in the empire, but he has also heard of various deeds. After returning to Pallas before, the teacher asked himself to send someone to investigate the other party and instructed him to nail down a hidden child in Glamorgan to monitor each other's every move.
The teacher did not say the reason for doing this, but apparently treated Renne as an enemy.
The Duke of Redstone did not respond.
He thought for a long time, recalling that he had just detected the enemy on the airship, his superb mastery of teleportation spells, and the suicide attacker in the floating city control room, and finally shook his head.
Rennes Augustus is not so capable.
Not to mention that Renn is just a legendary wizard, and Wezelan behind him can't do it. Such a powerful and crazy move must be related to the gods.
"It should not be him."
The Duke of Redstone is also not so sure.
He opened the portal and entered the control room of Floating City, and Montalin quickly followed.
The control room of Nuoda is like a bright hall. The rune arrays on the ground and walls are dim. They were destroyed by more than 70% in the explosion. The core of Eola in the middle of hovering slowly rotates, still like the sun. It emits endless light, but it has stopped outputting energy.
The Eola core did not go out, but temporarily stopped working.
The Duke of Redstone raised his hand lightly.
An eight-ring spell "Retrospect of Light and Shadow" was released.
Montalin can also use this spell, and has used it many times. A few years ago, one of Pallas’s magic airship was robbed and killed, and he suffered heavy losses. He personally investigated it.
Montalin investigated the place where the airship crashed for a long time.
That robbery obviously took place in the sky. Before the crash, he flew a long way. The altitude and distance were difficult to judge. Beyond the range of light and shadow, he only saw the picture of the orc robbing the wreckage of the airship. The process of fighting on the airship could not be found.
After that, the murderous orc disappeared.
The Dragonmaw clan also has no clue to this orc. It seems that an orc named "Brocksgar" has never appeared in the world.
This is still a pending case in Pallas.
Fortunately, the teacher concentrated on doing magic experiments over the years, but after a few questions, he did not blame himself for poor investigation.
Montalin retracted his mind.
The light and shadow come back into effect, and a phantom is generated in the control room, just like going back in time, playing it again in the direction of the past, showing what happened.
Soon, the Duke of Redstone appeared in the illusion. He suppressed the explosion process by "distorting reality" and made Montalin startled to see what had happened. Pallas almost crashed and couldn't help being pinched by the teacher. A sweat.
The illusion continues to go back in time, reversing the scene before the explosion.
A dark wizard with a skull mask appeared.
"The Dark Sun Sacred Symbol!" Montalin exclaimed in surprise: "It turns out that it was the believer of the fraudster!"
"Not necessarily." The Duke of Redstone said lightly.
The dark wizard in the light and shadow stretched out his hand and pressed it on the black metal box for more than ten seconds, seeming to stimulate the energy in the box to explode.
"What it is?"
Montalin widened his eyes to observe the dark box.
With his knowledge, he had never seen this thing before. It didn't look like magic or a scroll. The principle of operation was also hidden in the box, and it was invisible at all. The only thing that is certain is its power, which is more terrifying than the Nine Rings Extreme Pyroblast Art, and it was they that blew up two high towers.
The Duke of Redstone did not recognize either.
Obviously, the black wizard deliberately used a black box as an outer shell to cover up the magic items inside, just not wanting to be known about its origin.
Looking back further, the two saw the black wizard cast five consecutive major splitting operations, breaking the magical protection of the Eola Core.
Judging from the process of releasing the big splitting technique, the opponent’s arcane attainments are extremely high. The eight-ring big splitting technique can be cast in just three seconds, and each big splitting technique hits the weak point of the protective circle. Therefore, only five casts can expose Eola's core.
Montalin also knows how to break it, but he thinks he is inferior to this dark wizard.
It will take at least decades to study for himself.
"Who is this person?" Montalin was very puzzled. A wizard who could master the Great Splitting Art to such a degree, at least the pinnacle of the legend, must not be unknown.
But the other party seemed to not care about his own life at all, and directly blew himself up.
Montalin whispered: "Teacher, he must have a way to resurrect."
"Ok."
The Duke of Redstone nodded, he had already thought of it.
The light and shadow traced back to the moment when the black wizard appeared. The two high towers exploded and collapsed, causing the control room to vibrate violently, and the magic protection leaked.
A portal took the opportunity to open, and the dark wizard walked out of it.
Light and shadow stopped in this picture.
The two saw that the black wizard was holding a Pallas badge in his hand, and they were immediately puzzled. The Pallas badge is bound to the soul, and even if the holder is killed, it cannot be used. The only person who can grant permission is the Duke of Redstone himself.
"How did it happen?" Neither of them understood.
The Duke of Redstone frowned, he didn't even notice the abnormality of the badge.
If the soul binding of the badge is cracked, it means that there is a huge loophole in the magic protection of the floating city. As long as you kill any Pallas wizard to grab the badge, you can sneak into the floating city.
He looked carefully across the portal.
This should be somewhere in Pallas, it seems to be a storage room.
Combined with the fluctuating frequency of the portal, the Duke of Redstone found a place after a while, teleported it directly, and performed "Light and Shadow Backtracking" again in that storage room.
This time it takes longer to look back.
He controlled the illusion to accelerate backwards until he saw the figure of the dark wizard. I saw the dark wizard holding the Pallas badge in one hand, casting spells with the other, opening random doors that were only half a meter high, leading to Pallas's places.
Each arbitrary door was opened for only half a second, and the black wizard threw a cherdarin gem into it, and then quickly closed it.
This precious gem can store spells.
The Duke of Redstone and Montalin distinguished it at a glance. The Childarin gems thrown by the black wizard contained the Six-ring Pyroblast Art, which detonated as soon as they were thrown out.
It was these gems that caused chaos in Pallas and distracted the wizards.
Montalin looked very ugly when he saw this scene.
I was misled by the opponent, thinking that every explosion point in Pallas had an enemy to execute, and ordered people to encircle and kill.
The Duke of Redstone didn't care about it.
What he cared about was that the dark wizard could open any door at will in the floating city, and the number of times far exceeded the upper limit of the Pallas badge. This was the biggest problem.
Is the Pallas badge really cracked?
The light and shadow backtracking suddenly stopped, the illusion in the storage room disappeared, and nothing was seen.
"Arcane Disruption."
Duke Redstone said in a deep voice.
This is a seven-ring spell, which can prevent many arcane effects, including light and shadow backtracking, making it impossible to see what happened at that time.
Obviously, there were important clues hidden during the disturbed period.
As for why the black wizard didn’t use arcane magic to disrupt it, it’s probably because the situation was urgent. He had to race against time to destroy the core of Eola and didn’t have time to cast another seven-ring spell; it could also be that the black wizard was confident that he had covered up the clues. Don't care about being seen.
Soon after, Montalin received a report from the person below and found out the holder of the Pallas badge.
That is a Pallas' psionicist.
He was robbed of the badge by the advanced sleeping technique in Urgo City. The black wizard didn't kill him until he was awakened by the Red Flame Sword Guard under him. He didn't know what happened from beginning to end, and couldn't ask for a clue.
Montalin rushed to the upper floor of the alchemy material shop and used light and shadow to retrospect the process. The other party was invisible all the time and found nothing.
After hearing Montalin's report, the Duke of Redstone told him to step back and stand silent in the floating city control room.
He recalled the wizards on the airship.
Everyone wore black robes and skull masks. The whole body was wrapped tightly, and even an inch of skin was not exposed. There were a lot of cloth stuffed under the robes to change their body shape, obviously to defend their own will of truth.
Such a large and detailed plan should not be a temporary motive, but a long preparation.
He doesn’t have many enemies. The biggest enemy at present is René Augustus. He has the motivation and the strength to do it, but the two have only had a vengeance for more than half a month, so his suspicion is very small, almost not. Maybe he did it.
The probability of a fraudster believer is also very low.
Those dark wizards wore skull masks on their faces and acted in a style that conformed to the crazy doctrine of "fraudsters". They should have deliberately planted and blamed them and misled themselves to seek revenge against the dark wizards of the "dark sun."
If you change to someone else, you will probably believe it.
But the Duke of Redstone resolutely didn't believe it and denied that the fraudster believers were behind the scenes.
"It's not Raine Augustus, nor is it a Cthulhu believer, who would it be?" The Duke of Redstone meditated for a long time to no avail.
The only clue was the black metal box, those pure and violent energy, he had never seen it before.
The Duke of Redstone has never forgotten since he was a child. UU reading www.uukanshu.com will make his memory stronger. For hundreds of years, he has accumulated a huge amount of knowledge in his mind, like a treasure house of knowledge.
However, he thought hard for a long time and did not remember the relevant content.
The dark wizard covered it up too well, not even a single rune was exposed, and he should have not been exposed to relevant knowledge, so he could not draw a conclusion.
The Duke of Redstone shook his head and temporarily gave up the investigation.
The most important thing now is to restore his soul wounds, repair the control circle of the core of Iola, restore energy output, and let the floating city fly again.
At the same time, be vigilant and prepare for more attacks against Pallas in the future.
The pursuit of the enemy can only be put aside first.
