Black and white enveloped the entire world.
Rhodes raised his head and could see the sky shrouded in darkness not far away. Black and white were so clearly separated, as if there was an invisible barrier in front of the eyes to isolate the light, and obviously it was just a line But the scenery in front of you is completely different.
At this moment, Rhodes heard the sound of "crunchy" stepping on the snow. When he turned around, he just saw Celestina turned disappointedly from behind the tree and walked towards himself. The Devil eldest young miss changed into a relatively lightweight outfit today, but it is still as luxurious and gorgeous as ever. In addition, Rhodes also saw a plush-edged heavy cape behind Celestina, the girl under the whizzing wind complexion somewhat pale, aware of Rhodes''s eyes, Celestina suddenly did not want to be weak, and stared back fiercely. But in Rhodes's view, it was more like a bluff. He shrugged his shoulders, looked away and looked back. The airy Devil eldest young miss gritted his teeth and grunted with dissatisfaction. Of course, he did not hear Rhodes.
After deliberation, the consensus reached by everyone is that no matter what, scouts are always sent, but there are some disputes about the selection of candidates. In the end, when Rhodes stood up and said that he was responsible, it aroused the opposition of many people. In any case, Rhodes is also the commander of Fortress and Lord. a regional Lord and the commander personally went to the battle to investigate the enemy situation. The above is a good story. But in everyone's view, this is too risky. If it fails, the consequences are unimaginable. Not only Marlene, Leiya and others expressed objections. Even Sir Bayer thought that the idea of Rhodes' was too bold and risky, and he was taking the fate of the entire Fortress as a bet. Once he was found and then killed, everything would be completely finished. Of course, not everyone is opposed to this. For example, Annie has always echoed aloud, but Rhodes certainly understands this little brat's thoughts, but she just wants to take the opportunity to go with herself.
Rando and Joey naturally disagree with the Rhodes' proposal, but they all do scouts, naturally understand how dangerous this is, and the two also put forward some of their own opinions, such as sending some scouts who are not familiar with the situation of Fortress, Or maybe bring some magic item with self-destructive function, if there is something wrong and directly explode, explode the corpse to nothing, nothing will happen. Some of them also vowed that they would never be found. They would be very very careful. Once they found something wrong, they would just send it back to Fortress. ——— had "City Return Ring" anyway.
For these opinions, Rhodes did n’t object to them one by one. On the contrary, he embraced both hands in this way. After everyone expressed their opinions, this was the leisurely started talking.
"I will not underestimate your ambition and loyalty, I also think you have enough strength, but this thing must still be done by me, because there is one thing that none of you can do."
"What's the matter? Lord Sir?"
Hearing here, Joey is a bit curious and dissatisfied with asked. And hearing the dissatisfaction in the tone of Joey, Rhodes glanced at him lightly, and then this was started talking.
"Even if you see it, do you know what unit those undead creature belong to?"
"……………………"
After hearing this sentence, everyone who had just eagerly tried to refute them suddenly turned off the fire. They looked at each other and couldn't say a word. Because the sentence Rhodes' just hit their weaknesses, indeed, just talking about experience of undead creature, Rhodes is enough to dump them ten streets, and in fact until now, almost everyone ’s knowledge of Undead Legion comes from Rhodes', Other than that, it's totally both eyes. I don't know anything. This is a big taboo for scouts, even if it is between humans, even if there are only slight differences in unit, it will affect the commander's judgment on the entire battle situation. This is why the scouts are mostly experience rich veterans. They are so knowledgeable that they will not confuse Flame knight and Crimson Infantry, and this is the most important.
Although both Marlene and Serena have learned some knowledge of undead creature, after all, illustrations and living creatures are two different things. Even if they are familiar with the undead creature family of subjects, they will not let them distinguish skeleton soldier and Skeleton Guard What is the difference?
Sarah is very familiar with this, but Rhodes dare not let her go. Although he won the soul of Sarah, he is not afraid that this corpse slave will betray himself, but Rhodes is also very clear that most of the slaves around Lich have the magic mark, although corpse slave is not There will be a heart of betrayal, but in places like Kingdom of the Night, it is not surprising what was captured or what happened accident/surprise, just in case the slaves around Corpse Witch will have this magic mark. Fortunately in Fortress, Anti-Dead Barrier of Saintess Statue can isolate the detection of magic of the other party. Once out of this door ——— — haha, wait for that Lich to find the door along the GPS positioning. For Rhodes, there is no way, just find the magic emblem of corpse slave, and let Canary erase it, but the trouble is that the position of the magic emblem is not known by corpse slave itself, but to find this magic emblem, it is necessary to carry out a major Inspection, at least for the time being, Rhodes does not have any physical checklist for Sarah at this time, so it can only be done.
In the end, Rhodes decided to go alone, and he has enough confidence in himself. Now that Rhodes has entered Legendary Realm, plus he has four Holy Sword Card, a total of five Legendary Domain expert, with the current strength of Undead Legion Wanting to stay him is a delusion. And Rhodes doesn't need to sneak into the Undead Legion camp on his own. He just needs to find a suitable place, and then summon Graciel and Madaras is enough for ——— Calaisduying "Nihility Transformation" could it be to eat dry food?
However, Rhodes is not a fool, as if he has the fog of war on his map. Rhodes also knows Undead Army very well. Those bone racks also have a strong anti-detection ability, which was eaten by player early in the game. Too much loss in this respect, because the difference between the living and the dead is so great that they are as dazzling as the shiny gems on the Necromancer and Lich "radar".
This also caused the early player to be intercepted by Undead Army from time to time, and even splitting and surrounding what was common. At that time, many players were almost miserable about it. Still stubbornly clenching the teeth stepped forward, and the so-called method was always figured out. After the complaint of being tortured by Undead Army, players is not a fool, they quickly came up with various ways to escape Undead Army Exploration, and after that, the exploration of the military strength of undead creature is basically like an outing for player.
The reason why Rhodes took Celestina is also one of them. As a player that kills undead creature and kills soft hands, Rhodes naturally knows that the detection of undead creature. spell is basically either life detection or detection of goodness. He does not think he is considered good. But in order to avoid it, let Celestina come out to help yourself, anyway, this pure Devil eldest young miss is 100% pure Evil Faction, which is still guaranteed by the bloodline book.
However, Rhodes knows that this is just an insurance policy, so he has made another preparation.
"Really a great high tower."
Climb up the white stairs slowly, Serena can't help but lamented all the subconsciousness in front of her eyes, and Marlene was beside her. Although she did n’t speak, she can be seen from the look of Marlene Very much agree with Serena. It ’s no wonder that owning one ’s own Mage high tower is almost every Mage ’s lifelong aspirations and ideals, even for Marlene and Serena. They all dreamed of having their own Mage high tower one day, which is not just The condensation of strength is so simple, a Mage Tower represents the glory and destiny of Mage, and even everything.
Soon, the two went up the stairs, and in a short time they came to the hall at the top of high tower. From here, they looked in all directions, and they could see the beautiful scenery around them. However, it immediately disappeared after hitting the barrier of magic power. Looking up, you can see the pattern of wind and Fire Element World on the semicircular dome. The whole hall looks a bit deserted. It's no wonder that the money in Rhodes is currently only enough for a simple decoration of Ring Magic High Tower. I really want to completely renovate it. I am afraid that even a little of the money in Rhodes will not be left. ——— If the construction price of Saintess Statue is in Rhodes' ranks in the top three of the entire territory, then the decoration price of the entire Ring Magic High Tower is definitely ranked first. In fact, the simple tower body and exquisite decoration do not cost much, but those magic botanical gardens, various alchemy and magic installations, plus the formation, Mithril ’s Wanfa Library ... what ’s true The big head of consumption.
"You are here."
The Canary standing in the middle heard the sound of footsteps and turned back, looking at the two of them and smiling slightly. Marlene also smiled and nodded back to Canary, while Serena stood nervously straight, almost panicking to Canary for a grand Mage salute section.
"Hello, Master esteemed Canary, I ... I am really honored to be invited to your Mage Tower, I am Elementalist Serena Kanders of Ring Magic High Tower. I ..............."
"Relax, Serena."
Hearing the tense tone of Serena, Canary smiled at started talking, her voice was as gentle and calm as before, without any change. "Don't be so nervous, I'm just about your age. Just like Miss Marlene, just call my name."
"Yes ... Miss Canary."
Although this is the answer, Serena is still a look of fear and sincerity, but the peaceful tone of Canary actually made her relax a lot. At this moment, Serena has the opportunity to raise her head, looking at the curiosity and carefully This girl, indeed, as Canary said, she seems to be about the same age as herself, but there is the most obvious difference between the two. ——— is that the other party has already stepped into the peak of Inner Ring, the surging magic power .
About the rumors of Canary, Serena had heard about it before coming to Land of Redemption Fortress, but at that time Serena was somewhat disapproved. ——— herself was a dazzling new star of Ring Magic Association, although she was not as dazzling as Marlene, But she also has the pride and self-confidence that belongs to an outstanding rookie. In her opinion, the rumors are mostly exaggerated. She is talent's excellent Mage. She naturally understands how difficult it is for mortal to break through that layer of barrier and enter Inner Ring. Things, don't you see Marlene's talent is higher than her, but at this age is it still Middle Ring Mage? If someone really can break through the barriers of the law at this age and enter the Inner Ring field, how could it have been unknown all along?
After coming to Land of Redemption, Canary has been busy constructing Mage Tower itself, so Serena has never been able to meet. Until today ’s meeting, she only saw Little Bubble Gum and Canary for the first time.
But this time alone is enough.
Also as Mage, Serena can of course feel the thick strength on Little Bubble Gum and Canary that almost broke through the sky, although both of them have intentionally put away Principle Line, but just the kind of strong pressure from magic power. Enough to stun Serena. At this moment, the girl ’s world view was almost completely subverted, and what surprised her even more was that Canary was a Wild Mage without formal education? ! Holy Spirit above, does this still make sense?
For a moment, Serena even felt that the title of the genius in Ring Magic High Tower was worthless. In front of the real genius, her existence was not even as good as a beggar on the street. The previous contempt for Canary, and now the longing and awe after seeing each other's true strength, make Serena very awkward.
Looking at the performance of Serena in front of her eyes, Marlene and can't help but smiled slightly, she could understand the thoughts of Serena. In fact, Marlene herself had similar feelings about Canary at the beginning, and the relationship between her and Canary was due to the involvement By Rhodes it was more complicated, but after a long time, Marlene also gradually got used to it. She found that as long as she was not so entangled, she could open her heart to accept the situation in front of her, and it was not an unacceptable result.
"Rhodes has reached the border, so let's watch ours."
Canary smiled and made a gesture to the two, and then Marlene and Serena stepped forward. They came here at the invitation of Canary, not just to visit the cast spell high tower. Rather, it is necessary to assist Canary to perform detection together. spell ——— Mages can use this spell to explore other regions like starting a satellite radar, but it does not have much effect on those places where the magic resistance force is relatively high. In fact, Canary also noticed several times the other party's exploration on their side, but undead's detection of spell has its limitations after all. Under the protection of barrier of Saintess Statue, Canary easily smashed the other party's exploration, and now, It is not rude to come and go, she also intends to give the other party a little color to see.
"Next I need your two strength, please stand here."
As he said, Canary reached out and pointed to her. Until this time, the two found that at the feet of Canary, a silver formation was exuding a slight glory. It takes the shape of triangle, with a circle that can stand alone at three focal points. Besides, the most striking is the eyes logo in the center of the triangle shape, and the painting hovering in a circle around it Mysterious rune. Seeing this rune, Marlene was okay, and Serena was directly surprised when he saw these rune.
"Here, is this Secret Mark Formation?"
"Yes."
Canary nodded, no change on the surface. At the moment, Serena is a deep wave in the heart, Holy Spirit above, but she is very clear. Secret Mark Formation is a joint casting technique of Mages in ancient times. It can be perfect fusion. Each joint casting Mage strength, and used to match a spell . And the power of spell exerted under this skill is much stronger than the ordinary spell. However, Serena also knows that this formation has completely disappeared in history after the genesis war. The three Grand Mage of Ring Magic High Tower have spent hundreds of years. So far, they have only restored less than ten. Only one-half. If it was not Serena who was fortunate to be one of the disciples of Grand Mage, and had seen data about Secret Mark Formation in data, knowing some of rune among them, I am afraid she could not even think of it, and she would actually see a complete Secret Mark Formation here! !
Holy Spirit above, Serena can be sure that if she tells her teacher about this matter, I am afraid that the three masters will come here to observe and appreciate the formation of Secret Mark Formation even when facing End of the World. But ...
"Yes, but Miss Canary, I remember if there is nothing wrong, the launch of Secret Mark Formation should require twelve people ........."
"At present, we do not need to launch such a powerful spell, and our manpower is not enough, so I simplified it a bit, this three-person version is enough for us to use."
Simplified ..................
Hearing Canary's unwilling answer, Serena has been completely petrified.
Soon, three people stood around the crystal ball in front of them in an equilateral triangle shape, Serena was a little nervous, and Marlene was complexion serious, only Canary still maintained a soft smile.
"Do n’t worry, I will use my strength as a guide, eyes of the storm will be used to detect secrets, and strength of the flame will be used to maintain defense counterattack. Miss Marlene, you are responsible for the protection of the earth, Miss Serena , The cover of the ice and snow will be given to you. "
"Yes, yes! Miss Canary!"
When I heard Canary, Serena was nervous as if the student was named by the teacher in a hurry. Then I realized that I seemed to be overly nervous and shook my head hurriedly, then nodded again.
"Please rest assured to me, Miss Canary."
"So, let's get started."
Canary smiled softly, and then she raised both hands and reached forward. At the same time, Marlene and Serena also reached out. Soon, chanting sound resounds, wandering in the whizzing snow storm, fusion, followed the invisible trajectory of magic power and spread to the front.
The wind and snow roared.
Canary eyes opened. Soon, the snow scene appeared in the void in front of the three people, just like the scene of an aerial camera. Soon, the snow field flew past their eyes and went deep into that. In the dark field.
"Um ..............."
Serena can't help but whispered, although she was only responsible for using the snow and ice strength to mask the magic's breath to prevent the other party's detection, but after going deep into the border of Kingdom of the Night, the girl still felt the kind from the finger, full With the evil and dark magic power breath, it seems to be integrated with the cold chill, and even makes the fingertips of Serena a little tingling.
Soon, white changes to black.
In an instant, the endless Undead Army just appeared in front of the three Caster. They filled the entire void and almost connected to the sky at a glance, blending with the top of the dark sky. Seeing this scene in front of me, Canary eyebrow raised, and Marlene and Serena almost held my breath ——— with the help of magic's strength, this is the first time they saw so many Undead Army so clearly and intuitively, just standing here and seeing This scene makes people feel a sense of despair in can't help but.
However, these scenes just swept away and continued to advance, but at this time, the magic image in front of the three people suddenly began to distort.
"They are aware of our peep!"
Serena was shocked in her heart, she could feel that the dark magic power was permeating through her own wind and snow, running towards the roots of magic power, impacting on the protection provided by Marlene. The other party's strength is obviously very strong, Marlene's complexion just becomes pale in an instant, her clenched the teeth, both hands emerged brighter magic power brighter. Canary didn't give up at this time. On the contrary, her right hand moved slightly. Along with this action, the scene in front of her was suddenly rotated 180 degrees and glanced back and forth. Then, the dark flame suddenly appeared. on.
"Shut up!"
With the command of Canary, Marlene and Serena hurriedly retreat, and then saw a violent, powerful Dark Power burst from the void scene and emerged ——— but at this time, the right hand of Canary suddenly came out The dazzling and bright firelight was just an instant effort, and the black strength was quickly suppressed, followed by a flash of light, and everything completely disappeared.
"Hu... ............"
Canary clapped his palm, lightly exhaled.
"The general position of the enemy ’s army has been determined, and the detection and protection of the other party has also been destroyed. Next, let ’s look at Rhodes' ..."
Speaking of this, Canary raised his head, looked at Marlene and Serena, and smiled started talking.
"So next, let's have a tea party." RS
