However, at that moment, Brown and Lucia had completely disregarded life and death, they were still in this simple and narrow "safe house", asking and answering questions, immersed in the joy of knowledge inheritance and acquisition.
Perhaps the world would be destroyed in the next second, and perhaps the two of them would be reduced to ashes in the next second. But at this moment, they were still persisting and putting their simple and stubborn beliefs and beliefs into practice …
That was the belief they made on the first day they came into contact with arcane knowledge, and they were willing to give everything they had for it, even their lives.
That might be the fundamental reason why the Arcane Kingdom could rise so quickly in just a short period of nearly ten thousand years and become a powerful force in the multiverse!
Hearing the explanation of the arcanist Brown, the desire and expectation in Lucia's eyes became stronger.
However, just as she opened her mouth to continue to ask some questions, there was an earth-shattering bang, the arcane barrier of the Hall of Knowledge could no longer withstand the burning of the terrifying flame, it burst into flames and fireworks all over the sky.
The billowing heat wave and the Heavenly Fire instantly poured into the hall.
Lucia felt as if she had been thrown into a lava volcano, the tumbling and shaking air was filled with terrifying heat. And her clothes, long hair, skin, as well as the blood and bones in her body, were rapidly drying and withering under the terrifying high temperature, there was a tendency to turn into ashes in an instant.
And she tried her best to turn her head and look somewhere outside the hall.
There, a colossal flame giant was standing proudly, striding into the Hall of Knowledge.
What a towering flame giant it was!
Looking at the body that was surrounded by flames, she could see the figures of flame elves flying cheerfully everywhere, she could feel the burning sensation brought by the high-temperature flame flow everywhere … The tall and towering body of the other party was projecting endless light and heat outwards, just by looking at the flame giant, it had already made Lucia's eyes burn, and her whole body began to melt like a roasted candle.
Not only her, even Brown, who had the strength of a level two, couldn't bear the mighty power of the flame giant at close range. His clothes were ignited first, then the skin on his face, hands, and body began to have large patches of blisters, and his whole body fell into a state of extreme pain.
If he was an ordinary person, perhaps he would have turned into ashes the moment the burning domain covered him. It was because of his Second Circle Arcana Master's strength that he had been able to hold on for more than ten seconds in the Field of Fire, but he had also suffered a lot because of it.
However, even in such a painful situation, Brown still did not protect himself. Instead, he injected all of his arcane power into the arcane barrier outside Lucia's body. Meanwhile, he himself was quickly incinerated into ashes by the exploding flames, turning into a horrifying charred corpse.
However, a Second-Ring Arcana Master wouldn't be able to survive Grim's Burning Domain even if he used all of his strength. Therefore, Lucia, whom Brown had protected at the cost of his own life, did not live more than a few seconds longer than him. As the power of the arcane barrier was rapidly consumed, Lucia also began to follow the footsteps of Brown and quickly began to die.
"Power … So this is the so-called power!" Lucia's eyes were burned into empty holes. She stared blankly at the flame giant and couldn't help but mutter to herself.
The moment the arcane barrier was burned through, her body also turned into ashes. Even her soul began to melt bit by bit under the strange flames.
Just as her soul was about to perish, a resounding and unfamiliar voice suddenly sounded from the depths of her soul.
"Hmm? What a pure soul … "
With that, a strange hole seemed to open up in the depths of the flames. Lucia's soul was involuntarily sucked into the black hole, and she could no longer feel anything.
Grim weighed the Pearl of Darkness in his hand and sensed that the weak soul was still standing muddle-headed within. He nodded in satisfaction and put the pearl away.
That moment was very strange. Although he had killed two fellows casually, the A.I. Chip had strangely sensed the aura of the projection of the plane's will on one of them. Moreover, that fellow was the weaker of the two, probably just an arcane acolyte.
Logically speaking, it was impossible for such a fellow to attract the attention of the plane's will. However, when Grim waved his hand and incinerated them into ashes, the A.I. Chip had truly felt a slight undulation from the plane's will.
It was an indescribable feeling!
It was as if the Morian Plane's will had been silently watching over this weak arcane acolyte. Hence, when Grim accidentally killed him, he attracted the deep hatred and malice of the plane's will.
Hence, out of curiosity, with a thought, Grim used the Tier 5 Darkness Orb's strange Shadow Power to trap this weak soul within.
After doing all this, Grim shook his body and slowly retreated from his flame giant form, returning to his human form.
The battle between him and the Lich Congnas did not have an outcome.
When the terrifying battle between the Evil Hoof and the Great Arcanist broke out in the Arcane Temple in the center of the floating city, the Lich Congnas finally gave up on his battle with Grim. He turned around and rushed towards the distant battlefield with the Grade 4 Frost Wraith.
From the looks of it, it seemed that he wanted to take advantage of the conflict between the sandpiper and the clam.
Although Grim was not afraid of the Lich, he still chose to search for some spoils of war in the periphery after considering his own strength. As for Mangles and Qiu Lisha, they had obviously suffered quite a bit of injuries from the battle with the Frost Wraith and could only find another place to heal.
Therefore, Grimm decided to stay in the Arcane Magic Academy and walked around as he pleased.
After passing through a few half-collapsed corridors and turning a few corners, Grim suddenly found a black wooden door with faint elemental undulations at the end of a corridor.
Grim pushed it with his hand, but it did not budge.
There was a strange bronze face on the black wooden door. With a flash of yellow light, the bronze face slowly opened its eyes.
"Password … password … This is the secret library of the Dorndale Arcane Academy. Outsiders are not allowed to enter. If you want to enter, please say the password! "
Hearing the strange voice that sounded almost mechanical, Grim's eyes sharpened in annoyance. A wave of golden flames swept out, burning a hole large enough for him to pass through.
How could a mere Arcane Gate stop a Type 4 powerhouse from entering?
[Beep. Strange warning detected …] The A.I. Chip quickly intoned.
Obviously, Grimm's forceful intrusion had triggered the defense mechanism of the library. Under normal circumstances, a large number of fully armed arcanists would have rushed over to surround Grimm.
Unfortunately, at this moment, the entire floating city was in a mess.
Even the Arcane Academy in the central district had suffered from the attack of the Evil Hoof, so how could those arcanists with a bit of strength come to this remote place to cause trouble for Grim?
Therefore, Grimm ignored the warning and stepped into it. He looked around silently.
This was an extremely spacious and bright library. Rows of golden bookshelves filled with books could be seen everywhere, densely packed with thick books that faintly emitted an arcane aura. Looking at the exquisite decorations on the covers and the faint arcane aura, it was obvious that these were not ordinary goods.
Seeing everything here, Grim could not help but frown slightly.
Restrictions … There were too many restrictions!
It was obvious that in order to prevent people from overstepping their authority to read the books, all the arcane technique manuals had been sealed and protected by powerful arcane runes.
Although the floating city had lost the support of arcane energy, these runes were still intact. It seemed like there was a small elemental pool below the library that was supporting its operation.
Grim had no interest in destroying the elemental pool.
He slowly browsed through the rows of bookshelves. Whenever he was interested in a certain Arcana Technique manual, his eyes would shoot out two streaks of crimson flames, forcefully corroding the Arcana Technique Glyphs. Then, he would reach out and grab the book, stuffing it into the Elder's Ring of Authority.
Due to the lack of time, Grim did not have that much time to slowly unlock every rune, so he could only use the most clumsy method.
Of course, if Grim did not care about the damage to the books, he could just throw out a Flaming Storm and burn through most of the runes. However, if he did that, many arcane technique manuals would not be able to remain intact.
Listening to the tsunami-like sounds of elemental explosions and the occasional violent tremors, one could imagine how chaotic and torturous the floating city was right now.
Grim, on the other hand, had completely given up on everything and began to focus on collecting and looting the arcane technique manuals here.
Different from Grimm's leisurely attitude, in another place not far away, two strange figures were following the lingering flame in the air to the Arcana School. Then they arrived at the Knowledge Hall that had completely collapsed and melted.
The original location of the hall had turned into a terrifying pool of lava. All the stone walls, pillars, and rubble had disappeared, leaving only gurgling streams of terrifyingly hot liquid lava.
"I've already sensed that bastard's aura. He's in a secret room not far away from here. Let's go and kill him! "The one who spoke was a strange black figure walking in front.
Even though the sky was bright and the light shone on this strange black figure, it was still difficult to see her face and body clearly. They could only vaguely tell that she was a woman, and an abnormally powerful one at that.
The guy following behind her looked frustrated and angry, but he could not do anything to her.
"Will you keep your word? If I help you kill Grim, will you set me free? "Judging from the voice, the person behind him was Wizard Hori who had disappeared on the battlefield.
At this moment, he was wearing the silver robe, but there was a strange black rune branded on his forehead, which was constantly emitting a strange magical wave.
"Hehe, you've already been implanted with a Seed of Darkness. Normal witchcraft will not be able to get rid of it. So, as long as you help me kill Grim, I'll swear in the name of the origin of darkness that I'll definitely get rid of the Seed of Darkness. "The black figure was the resurrected Dark Witch Shani.
