Chapter 760: Meeting
Walking down the steps to the depths of the earth, Henry suddenly felt the urge to laugh out loud. It's not because there's something wrong with his brain, but the more he goes inside, the more he discovers that this is a tomb, which is clearly an extremely luxurious underground palace.
The people on the continent of Faeron will probably never know that the wizard king Lavoc does not live in a dark and evil labyrinth filled with the smell of rancidity, but lives in a magnificent underground palace and laughs at the changes of the whole world, and even the rise and fall of the gods, which has a sense that everyone is drunk and sober.
The dark red carpet covered the staircase, corridors, and halls like blood, and the huge statues stood on either side with torches blessed with unquenchable flames, and countless pairs of bright spots emitting green, red, and white lights swayed in the darkness, undoubtedly the monsters guarding the palace, capable of tearing intruders to shreds at the command of their masters.
When Henry finally walked up the long staircase, he finally came to a large and bright hall. With hundreds of female vampires, succubi, lust, celestial creatures, and even some of nature's most beautiful creatures, such as dryads and water spirits, all in gorgeous dresses, it was hard to imagine how these races, who hated each other, could have stayed together so harmoniously, and each with a charming smile on their faces, without the slightest hint of good or evil tendencies.
At the end of the hall sat a huge chair in black robes, the red light emanating from his eye sockets terrifying than any undead creature Henry had ever seen, as if it could pierce a person's soul through its body.
Obviously, this is the highest-level mage on the main plane, Lavok. On either side of him stood two dozen lichs exuding terrifying powers, presumably surviving assistants and students from the Nethrel era.
Without any hesitation. Henry walked straight through the hall full of temptation. Even those women whose looks and bodies are perfect are not moved by any kind of provocation in their lives. His eyes were only on the Wizard King in his seat, and nothing else could distract him from it.
Seeing this scene, a smile appeared on Lawalker's withered and old face, followed by a hoarse voice from his mouth: "Hehe, young man, are you not satisfied with this welcome ceremony?" Don't worry, I don't mind sitting here for a few days and coming back when you've had enough. They've been magically cultivated by me to entertain you. Even if you take it all away afterwards, it's no problem. ”
"Thank you for your kindness, but forget it. It's better to take your time when pursuing the opposite sex, because it's worth enjoying the process, not satisfying the lower body that is dominated by desires. What's more, with you here, even if the succubus queen Mecanshut is standing here, I won't take a second look. After saying that, Henry stopped his steps and bowed slightly.
At such a close distance, he could finally feel the terrifying magic power contained in the wizard king's body, with a radius of tens of meters, the magic net, the shadow magic net, and the primordial magic energy were all distorted, and the invisible force fields filled the entire space, and the large and small invisible magic protection formed an all-round system without dead ends. It is estimated that even if the mountain peak collapses, the other party will not be harmed at all.
Terrible!
This is the most terrifying guy Henry has ever seen, and even the combined incarnations of Rose and Shar may not be better than Lavoker. In particular, the magical energy stirring in the space is similar to the cosmic projection created by him, at least in terms of defense, this spherical overlapping force field is more effective.
"Hahahaha! I really didn't expect that I would have a day when I would surpass Mecansut in terms of charm. You are a good talker, young man, and I can see in your eyes the endless thirst for knowledge, and the burning thirst for magic. ”
Lawalker waved his hand as he spoke, and the seductive woman saluted gracefully, then disappeared into the arched passages on either side, and even the serving lich cast a teleportation spell and left the place. In just a dozen seconds, there were only two powerful legendary spellcasters left in the empty hall.
"I know you must have a lot of questions right now, but don't worry, we have time, so it's better to ask you to watch an interesting conversation first." After saying that, the Wizard King raised his withered arm and pointed lightly, and a silver-gray bright light shot out from the top, followed by a circular mirror in the center of the hall, in which two people hidden in the hood were talking to each other.
"How's the plan going? I've heard that the human mage has started to build the Floating City, which is a great threat to us. ”
"I'm sorry, but I have suffered a little setback with my chess pieces, especially since Yellow Sparrow has never been able to find a chance to make a move. As for the matter of Floating City, I think it's probably a smoke bomb, so I don't have to pay attention to it at all. After all, the raw materials for the core of Mithera have been depleted, and there is no inexhaustible energy, and the so-called floating city is just a large mage tower. ”
"No, there must not be a hint of sloppiness in this matter. You'll want to make sure you clear all the hurdles before you return, and I don't want to be in a protracted magical war because of a moment of carelessness. You can't forget how much disaster the war between Ioram and Karthhas caused in the first place? ”
"Father, I haven't forgotten it. Rest assured, I'll order the Yellow Sparrow to speed up, and if the Floating City is real, then I promise it will crash the moment it lifts off. ”
"Remember, Revaraan, the enemy you're going to face this time is nothing short of trivial, even the goddess Shar covets his abilities, so be extra careful, he's a mortal with god-killing powers."
"Understood! No matter how deep the demonic trevally is in him, I must definitely channel it out. As the biggest variable in the whole world, he has to be on our side. ”
"Then go ahead and do your best to find out the ins and outs of the whole thing. Note that the identity of the yellow finch should be kept secret, we don't have a second such a precious chess piece. ”
The conversation between the two came to an abrupt end, and although they didn't see their faces hidden under the hood, Henry could understand who the other party was just by talking to him.
The one who spoke first was the supreme lord of the Netherworld, Telamant. Tanshur. And the second one to open is Revaran. Tanshur. They don't just mention themselves. And there is also a person codenamed Yellow Sparrow, it seems that this guy's status is very high, and it seems that he is still carrying out some shady plans.
After a few minutes of silence, Henry looked up and asked the Wizard King, "Why are you showing me this?" Shouldn't you be on the side of the Shadow City? After all, as the Great Arcanist of the Great Nethrel era, you should have a lot of language in common. ”
"That's a good question, I'll answer that question now. If Terramante can revive Nesserel, I don't mind helping him. But alas, he took refuge in Shar. You don't know what Shar's ultimate purpose is, do you? ”
Lawalker didn't shy away at all, and directly called out the name of the goddess of the night, as if he was not worried about being heard by the other party at all, and the corners of his dry mouth were slightly upturned, revealing a sarcastic smile.
"Of course, her purpose is to restore the tranquility of the beginning of the universe, and in general, to destroy the life of the first qiē, of course, including the gods and human civilization that were born later." Henry knew so well about Share's teachings that he blurted out without even thinking about it.
Lavock nodded slightly: "Yes, it seems that you have a good understanding of the nature of the Lost God. Don't worry. It's a place that shields all the senses of the gods, and she can't hear what we're saying. The idiot of Terramante was simply being used by Shar. Even if his plan succeeds, it will only end up in despair and ruin. I will not allow anyone to wreak havoc under the banner of reviving Nesser, and it is the duty of the Grand Arcanist to protect humanity and civilization, not to destroy them. ”
"You mean...... Protecting human ?!! Henry's expressionless face finally showed a look of surprise.
He couldn't believe that this was coming from the mouth of a lich who had killed millions of people, not to mention that the Wizard King himself had done far more research on evil magic than any other Grand Arcanist, otherwise it would have been impossible to create a terrifying and vicious artifact like the Dead Moon Orb.
"Isn't it hard to believe?" There was a hint of amusement on Lavoc's face. "What do you think was Iolem's purpose in inventing the Core of Mithera in the first place? What was the Floating City built for? ”
After thinking about it carefully for a while, Henry quickly came to his senses and couldn't help but sigh: "Hey, you're right, the Great Arcanist is here to protect humanity and civilization, not to destroy them. The core of Mithera is to allow more people to enjoy the convenience of magic, and the Floating City has protected tens of thousands of people from the threat of monsters, even when the Felin Demon Sunflower is at its most rampant, the Nessera people have not suffered much damage. ”
He finally understood why Iolem was called a demigod by the people of his time, and why he was called the greatest arcanist, and this magnanimity and selflessness alone was admirable, even if he chose to merge with the Mind Flayer Mastermind for some reason, at least he made a contribution that no other Grand Arcanist would never be able to achieve.
"Hahahaha! Very good, very good, you can understand that, and it will be a lot easier for us to talk to each other. The Wizard King laughed.
"Since the Grand Arcanist is here to protect humanity, why did Ioram choose to leave alone in the end? I'm sure if he had been there, he would have been able to stop Karthas from casting that horrible magic. Henry asked the question that had been bothering him all along.
Although countless spellcasters believed that Karthus had pushed magic to the pinnacle in some way, and that the unprecedented twelve-level magic had terrified the gods, he had always felt that as one of the most important founders of the Nethril era, Ioram should be much worse than Karthas, and even stronger, and it was inexplicable that he disappeared in such an unknown way.
Lavock touched the armrest of the chair and explained in a rather helpless tone: "It's very simple, he is completely disappointed in humanity, especially Karthas's madness, when almost all the great arcanists who can still keep their senses know that the catastrophe is coming, even I left the floating city and chose to live in seclusion, and you should know what happened later, terrible magic, terrible disasters, and the glorious magical kingdom was completely destroyed." ”
