Chapter 477: Tempest and Storm (5)
"Chief Rurno, everyone is ready!"
After removing his suit, Yegor stood in front of the Empire's chief court mage, Ruerno Luchez, and reported to him on the preparations.
Yegor had long black hair, but the quality of the hair was so withered that it looked like kelp.
The mage's eyes glowed with a glimmer of magic, a symptom that would only occur when working in a high-concentration environment for a long time, and if it took a little longer, he would be assimilated by the magic and become a complete 'magical creature'.
Because Yegor is not an 'extraordinary' mage, he is also the only one among the rotating mages who is not extraordinary, and many court mages have high hopes for him, believing that he is a very talented mage and has the hope of becoming another 'legendary mage' among the court mages.
The mage had a scruffy appearance, and few people knew what kind of active brain was hidden behind this scruffy exterior, and how the whimsy in the brain often amazed people - not many people knew!
Ruerno woke up from his thoughts and nodded: "Then, let's go!"
Yegor lowered his head slightly, and walked out of the legendary mage's study behind Rurno, even though he knew that the bookshelves around him contained knowledge that ordinary people could not imagine, but he was not the slightest bit moved, this kind of heart is very rare, so even Rulno Luches thought that he was indeed 'talented'.
As the old mage walked down the road, he was still thinking about a question, a question that was easy to overlook, but very crucial -
Why is there such a super-massive tsunami as 'Poseidon's Wrath' this year? The last 'Poseidon's Wrath' was only more than 30 years ago, so how can it reappear in this world today, 30 years later?
If it is said that this is because the 'Seal of the Gods' in the Black Forest is disintegrating, then it is unreasonable, after all, the Black Forest is not even affected by the Kurkut Empire now, how can it affect that ocean?
For more than 400 years, as a legendary mage, Ruerno has lived a long life, and in his more than 400 years of life, almost every 'Poseidon's Wrath' has been almost a hundred years away from the last one, maybe because of an earthquake in Haiti, maybe because of a volcanic eruption, maybe because of the tidal chaos caused by the migration of a group of sea beasts, and finally a natural disaster - but, even before he was born, people had already mastered the law of 'Poseidon's Wrath'!
This kind of super tsunami, which occurs only once in nearly 100 years or even more than 200 years, is only more than 30 years after the last occurrence!
Whether it is an earthquake or a volcanic eruption in Haiti, or the migration of sea beasts, it is just a trigger, the essence of which is that the ocean currents and tides are driven by a large number of water and wind elements.
Nothing is known for the time being because he has not been to the site, but Rourno does not believe that what has been accumulated in just over 30 years could cause a super tsunami.
Now he dared to assert that it must be for some other reason that caused the 'Poseidon's wrath this time!
And the most likely of them may be related to the tremor he felt in the royal capital not long ago.
The tremor didn't last long, and they didn't find any earthquakes in the Empire, and the epicenter wasn't near the Imperial Capital Norman, so he didn't bother anymore, after all, during that time, he was continuing to do some research on airships, and had entered a critical stage, and he didn't have time to think about anything else, and this matter was not urgent.
Originally, he thought that the epicenter should be in the interior of the Mendes Continent, but he didn't expect that it might be in the eastern ocean of the Slo Mendes Continent?
While thinking about these things, the two of them had unconsciously arrived at an experimental field in the palace mage's residence, and only here was there enough space.
Putting aside other thoughts for a moment, Ruerno looked at the thirty-five court mages standing in front of him—Yegor had already returned to the team at this time—and he calmly asked these juniors, "Are you ready?"
"Yes, Chief Rulno!"
The responses of the thirty-five court mages were uniform, like the most elite knights of the Empire.
In fact, these thirty-five court mages were the 'soldiers' of Lurno Luchez, and he was now like a general, about to take them to the battlefield.
Seeing that they were already covered with ornaments, the chief court mage couldn't help but smile, it was precisely because he invented a technology that could precisely control the magic radiation of magic items, so that they would not interfere with other magic items, so these court mages were now able to carry so many magic accessories.
They were already fully prepared, so Ruerno also bowed slightly: "Then, let's go......"
Before the last syllable of the words fell, Ruerno's voice was already severely distorted, and the teleportation array that had just been drawn a few minutes ago shimmered beneath their feet, and the magic outlined it, and the time and space around the circle began to distort, and then, the circle shone brightly, and all the mages closed their eyes.
The next moment, before they could open their eyes, the roaring rain suddenly sounded in their ears.
The court mages opened their eyes and saw a shield that had helped them keep out the pouring rain.
Standing under the transparent shield, they looked up and saw thunder shuttling between the clouds, the wind pulling the rain lines, and the sky was dark, and it didn't look like it was three o'clock in the afternoon.
They stood in an open field, their feet on the wet brick floor, shielded from the rain, but not sound, and they could still see and hear the lightning and thunder outside.
"This is the ...... of the port of Liujin"
Ruerno looked around and chuckled, "And it should still be the Governor's Palace, after so many years, this place has not changed." ”
He had been here before, and before he became the chief court mage, he served here as a mage advisor to the governor for a term, when the royal family was building a magic ship to explore the treasures of the eastern ocean, and he didn't dare to hide from others, so he changed from a 'court mage' to a 'governor's mage advisor', so he was very familiar with the environment here.
After a moment of nostalgia, Ruerno smiled and turned his head in the direction of the port.
Not only him, but even some court mages with a keen sense also sensed that there was a terrifying force on that side that was constantly approaching-
"'Poseidon'......'
There was a gloomy look in Ruerno's eyes, this was the fourth time in his more than 400 years of life that he had encountered such a natural disaster.
When he was more than a hundred years old, he followed the previous chief to resist this force, and after that, he led his team to solve natural disasters twice, and now, for the fourth time!
Even fishermen living on the seashore may not remember the existence of the 'Poseidon's Wrath', which in their short lives was a mere legend, but he actually experienced it four times.
"Wait!"
In that moment, Urno noticed the giant standing in the sky.
"Wind Elemental Lord...... But why?"
As the chief court mage of the Wizard Empire, Ruerno Luches was well-informed, and after noticing the giant's presence, he had already recognized what 'he' was.
This time, the 'Poseidon's Wrath' was caused by this Wind Elemental Lord?
The thought flashed through his mind, and then he put it all behind him—
Because, the 'Poseidon's Wrath is coming'!
