More than half a month ago, the battle that took place in the imperial capital had spread throughout the empire. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

Located in the central plain of the north, linking the north and the south and the western desert, it was the political and commercial center of the empire, and thousands of caravans came to the satellite towns or bazaars at the foot of the three mountains every day. At the same time, they will bring news from all over the world, or they will bring the news from all over the place.

The battle between Emperor Israel and Count Joshua of the North was undoubtedly a drunken affair, and in just a few days, the flow of caravans and expedited magical teleportations had brought the news to all the well-informed nobles and chambers of commerce, and in another week, even the farmers who were busy harvesting had a general understanding of the matter.

Once again, the name Joshua was at the center of the conversation. As a pole, he actually dared to challenge the legendary powerhouse, and although he was defeated, he returned intact, which can be regarded as a legend in a sense. Of course, everyone knew that this must have been left by His Majesty the Emperor, but it was enough to make people talk about it.

The rain clouds swept away, and torrential rain fell, sweeping the entire Sanshan region with strong winds and elemental fluctuations, as high as the second sun descending. Just the aftermath is like this, for ordinary people who have not seen a real strong person make a move, this battle can also give them a little understanding of the power of the transcendent above gold.

However, the commoners can not care about the reason for the fight between Joshua and Israel, only the great power shown by the two fights, but the nobles can't do the same, compared to Joshua's extraordinary strength again, most of the family leaders want to know why the head of the Radcliffe family, who is obviously one of the pillars of the imperial party, would fight with the ruler of the empire.

Since no one blocked the news, they quickly learned the truth and sorted out the general process.

First of all, because of the competition of the Radcliffe family, the Feltao family in the north and the east of the arms trafficking industry suffered a certain blow, and at the same time, a large number of small families and the famous Suward family were damaged. Since the Earl of Northland was located on the Holy Mountain at the time, and it seemed as if he had disappeared, the Fertaos decided to coerce and negotiate directly with the Radcliffe estate.

Obviously, the coercion was unsuccessful, so the administrator was assassinated. Seeing this, basically the vast majority of nobles have no psychological fluctuations, although this kind of thing is indiscriminate and disgraced by many famous families with a long history, but it is not an unacceptable means, it is part of the unspoken rules.

But what comes next is a bit of fun. The news of the assassination of the administrator seemed to have been hindered by something, and he was not immediately informed of the Count of the Northland, and by the time the Count knew about it, most of his subordinates in the imperial capital had already died—and the stupid Fertao dwarfs thought that Joshua was afraid of them, so they did not spare their hands at all, but became more and more vigorous.

Then, Joshua rushed to the imperial capital and slaughtered the second son of the Suward family and the three official family members of the Feltao family - if it were not for the fact that His Majesty the Emperor happened to be in the imperial capital at the time and intervened to stop them, the angry Count Count might have rushed to the northwest of the empire to kill six people, and one life was worth one life.

"Remember, tell the group that they owe me two more lives." These were the words of the head of the Radcliffe family when he left the imperial capital, and he didn't seem to have killed enough. If it weren't for Israel to stop Joshua from continuing to kill and force him to be grounded in the Northland for a year, then the Lord Count would definitely not hesitate to go to the Fertao family for trouble.

This matter spread very quickly among the nobles, some people did not care, some raised their eyebrows, most of them were wary of the Earl of the Northland who personally intervened without saying a word, and the remaining small number of people, half clapped their hands and the other half gritted their teeth.

Naturally, there is no need to say much about the group of people who gritted their teeth, only the two families that killed and injured people. Although they were outraged by the death of a family member, they had no outlet to vent - nominally, Israel had taught each other a lesson and forced Joshua to be grounded for half a year, which was already a very serious punishment for a desperate powerhouse who could fight a legend.

Secondly, they can't beat each other, and they can't find a way to retaliate.

According to the speculation of the staff group, the combat power of this Northland Earl has been judged to be the highest level in the Extreme Intention after experiencing the Sacred Mountain Dragon War and the battle with His Majesty the Emperor, surpassing many other veteran Extreme Intentions, even among the five major army commanders, there are few who can match it. No one would deny this, even the enemy, Joshua's record is obvious to all, and it is impossible to fake.

It's not surprising that there is no way to retaliate. Before the four Northland leaders opened the teleportation network a year and a half ago, they were basically isolated from the world, and their transactions with the outside world relied on the dragon cart merchant and Maggie Bu Frozen River, and directly traded with the imperial family and the five directly subordinate legions, and the Fertao family really couldn't think of any idea to take revenge on this salt-hungry Northland Earl.

The name spread further, bringing Joshua a higher prestige, and many powerful adventurers who did not care much about current affairs and were dedicated to adventuring in the mountains and jungles also knew his name, and many adventure squads and mercenary groups chose to explore the area around the Great Ajax Mountains simply out of curiosity and wanted to see what this count, who was called the 'strongest' extreme will.

Even though the snow had fallen in early winter, there was still a steady stream of adventurers and mercenaries heading to Northland Moldavia.

And for Joshua, the so-called grounding doesn't mean anything.

In the next half year, the northern land will be extremely cold, and he, as a lord, should have stayed here, always on guard against the Black Forest Black Tide. As the head of Wintercastle, he also has to prepare with Nostradamus for the next academy exam at the beginning of summer, not to mention the establishment of the rune factory and the production of magical armor.

According to the schedule, if there is no unexpected event such as the trip to the Abyss of Anos, the warrior will be very busy in the coming year and will not have time to go out, and the most recent major event is the harvest festival and the nature mentor who will come at any time.

Starfall 834, October 5, Northland Moldavia, Great Ajax Mountains.

In the volcanic cavern, long submerged by the pouring lava, a team of mages and workers in improvised magical armor are at work. Mages use fossils as mud to quickly dig tunnels with porters, while workers equipped with heat resistance and fire resistance armor move inert rocks and ores that are not affected by spells.

Guided by spells, they dug fast and in the right direction, avoiding every lava passage and dangerous mana gathering area, while the power of the magic armor kept the workers at work and progress.

These people are the engineering team sent by Joshua to excavate the teleportation channel to the world of Ilgena, due to the attack of the evil god [Natural Disaster], Sigma Volcano completely disappeared, and the teleportation channel in the lava cave under the Great Ajax Volcano Mountain was temporarily closed, and the inverted lava filled the entire karst cave, so that the entrance to the cave on the surface was all solidified volcanic rock.

In order to ensure that this teleportation channel between the two realms could be unearthed before the arrival of the natural mentor, Joshua sent several academy mentors and guild mages who were studying the black blood plague, and he even asked several knights in the knight order to wear armor and work as diggers.

Under the protection of the magic armor, these silver-level knights can temporarily be fearless of magma, and the efficiency of the combination of the two teams of transcendents is so terrifying that in less than half a day, they have already completed a quarter of their goal, and they have approached the deep underground, the cave where the original space-time passage is located, and they have also discovered a rich mine of fire elemental crystals by the way.

In the evening, the day's work was temporarily over, and the leader of the team, a dwarf familiar with the volcano area, used magic to teleport and report the progress of the work to Joshua, who was far away from the main city of Moldavia, and he reported the situation truthfully, and then waited for instructions on the next step.

In this regard, the soldier has nothing to say, in addition to encouraging the other party's enthusiasm for work, he can only ask to pay more attention to the safety of the work period.

After the call ended, Joshua put down the communication circle and returned to his body.

At this time, he was in the study of the Lord's Mansion, quietly meditating alone.

Although it was true that he was defeated by the other side in the battle with Israel, in fact, the warrior learned a lot from that short encounter.

A legend's masterful control of energy and skillful timing gave Joshua a new experience, a different kind of combat technique from him, which had a high reference value, not to mention the final blow when Israel transformed his will into a physical substance, and his bare hands turned into a lance stabbing blow.

This is completely different from the power he once had, it is the power of another system. The ability to freely switch between will and vindictiveness is so subtle that, in Joshua's view, it can be called art.

You must know that the will and spirit are derived from the power of fire, and the fighting spirit of the tributary of the power of steel, which is the manifestation of the essence of life, is completely different. The warrior knew that the mystery of the conversion of the two must contain the secret of Israel's advanced legend, and it was necessary for him to study and refer to it carefully.

As for the system, the warrior felt that it was too dangerous to rely on the system all the time, and people really needed a second option.

Sitting in his chair, the warrior opened his eyes slightly after temporarily meditating, and there was a hint of subconscious urgency in his gaze.

He is already a strong man, a group of people at the pinnacle of the world, except for the legendary powerhouses and gods, the warriors have no opponents in this land, and now, there is only one thing that can make him feel the crisis and show such an expression.

Magic Tide.

"The tide is coming," ...... whispered these two words, Joshua got up from his seat and walked to the window of the Lord's Mansion. The warrior looked down at Hotaru and Hei, who were having fun with the two little girls downstairs, and said to himself calmly: "Sure enough, the powerhouses in this world have long noticed this. ”

The so-called Demon Tide, generally speaking, refers to the annual Great Monster Tide in the Central Black Forest, countless terrifying monsters will rush out from the depths of the deep Magic Forest, attacking the civilized world, the southern fortress group of the empire, and the large isolation area of the Eastern Plains are all defense lines specially built to fight against the Demon Tide.

But it is obvious that the tide of magic in Israel's mouth is not the tide of Warcraft in this ordinary sense. He was talking about a great demon tide that swept across the multiverse and set off elemental tides in countless worlds.

In this vast and boundless multiverse, the peak of energy is not consistent, in the past few thousand years, the energy level of the entire world is relatively stable, whether it is rising or declining relatively gently, but then, the upcoming Great Demon Tide means that in a short period of time, the energy concentration of the entire Mycrof world has simply reached the peak.

What does this mean?

Means too many things.

The surging elements will completely change everything in this world, and all things will be immersed in a high concentration of magical energy, just like at the beginning of the creation of the world, the first creatures in this world experienced, countless magical beasts, plants and even various intelligent races will have benign and beneficial atavistic phenomena, countless powerful ancient creatures will get rid of the situation of lingering, and begin to reproduce and survive normally, the minerals in the earth will become more abundant and valuable, ordinary people perceive energy, and it will be countless times easier to advance to the black iron revelation.

At that time, although the golden realm is still rare, it is definitely not only like now, in a large empire with a population of hundreds of millions, only thousands of people can reach this realm, and the average level of adult dragons will also be raised to the gold level, becoming a real golden race.

At that time, countless geniuses who had been silent will gush out like a spring, and the entire continent will enter the most prosperous era, catching up with the footsteps of the previous generation of civilization in just a few decades.

Of course, these are the good sides. Joshua blinked, then turned his head to look at the location of the Black Forest in the distance.

And the bad side is just as terrible.

Intelligent life can enjoy the benefits of increased mana concentration, then Warcraft can naturally do it too. Even, the wilder they are, the closer they are to the nature of the berserk magic, they will get more boosts. When the Great Demon Tide descended, and everyone had not had time to adjust to the terrifying concentration of mana, the endless monsters in the Black Forest had already become accustomed to this new power, and they were ready to move, they would swarm out and attack the unprepared major forces with several times more power than before.

This is an act of God. The warrior was not afraid of the beasts, and he believed that, under his leadership, Moldavia, and indeed the whole of the Northlands, would suffer nothing from the Kuroshio of the Great Ajax Mountains.

His concern was man-made calamity.

When the unrestrained power spreads, the ambition will spread, and in just a few months after the arrival of the demon tide in the previous life, the original post-war peace of the four major human gathering areas was broken, and the cultists declared that this was the precursor of the gods, the trumpet of doom, and the demon summoners found that they could more easily and simply call on those forces from the abyss.

The increase in the magic energy level does not only affect the good people, the power of the pirates and bandits everywhere will naturally be fairly improved. Because the environment has become suitable, the necromancers who were originally silent will also wake up from their long sleep in the tomb and return to this world, and at the same time, countless ancient inheritances will descend.

Of course, that's not the most important thing.

Joshua withdrew his gaze from the silver-haired girl and the black dragon girl, and he raised his head to look at the sky. The warrior's eyes seemed to be able to penetrate the void and see beyond the boundless heavens and the gods within.

The Great Magic Tide means a lot.

But nothing is more significant than this.

"The gods descended."

The warrior muttered to himself, "Man and God live together on the earth." ”

Speaking of this, he paused slightly, and then the corners of his mouth pulled up, with a slightly excited smile.

"It's really, a great time for the heart."
