[The first chapter, today's fourth chapter.]
In the Ancient Myers language, there was an inherent word – mage's revenge.
This word existed before the Ancient Myers language. In fact, this single word even predated the Mark of Hatred. The Mark of Hatred of the gods was learned from mages.
Mages rarely talked about the word hatred. For mages, everything was an equivalent exchange. Even in battle, it was the same. But when a mage was really angry, he would plant a seed of hatred in the enemy. This seed would be sensed by other mages, and they would be hostile to the target.
If a mage was offended, he would let this hatred continue until the target's soul perished.
You could kill the mage, but you must never let the mage feel unfair. Otherwise, the mage's revenge would come. This was a powerful spiritual magic, and it could only be used when one was at a very high level. When the power of humans declined, people gradually forgot this magic, and only the impression of the mage's principles was left.
If people wanted to get something, they had to pay the same price.
Count Alphonso had offended Salin very deeply. If he had sent people to kill Salin, even if they chased him to the ends of the earth and chopped Salin into minced meat, Salin would not resent him. No matter how this hatred started, Salin had killed someone else's son first.
But Count Alphonso destroyed Salin's family graveyard, completely. When Salin returned to the stone house outside the city for the first time, he had already sent the leader of the Night Fangs to investigate, and everything disappeared without a trace.
Count Alphonso was too ruthless. For the people of the Myers Continent, the graveyard could not be desecrated. Salin had been alone since he was young. What Alphonso did was equivalent to stabbing a knife into Salin's heart. Salin could still feel that pain, so he would not give up on revenge.
But Salin was a little different from what he originally thought. For this kind of thing, it was enough to punish the person who did it. Alphonso and the people who helped him, Salin did not want to implicate others, unless …
Salin called Nelis, gave her a letter, and asked her to send it to the magic tower in Yaoyang City. If the teacher still had a grudge against this mage, then let the teacher deal with him personally. Salin had no intention of destroying the magic tower, unless this mage stopped him from killing Alphonso.
If possible, Salin would not implicate any unnecessary people.
"Master, in my opinion, just like how we dealt with Iron Wall City, just send three hundred metal flying machines. Brilliant Sun City will be finished in a few hours. Why go through so much trouble?" Nelis took the letter and provoked Salin's hatred.
"Iron Wall City can only be done once. The first time was intimidation, but the second time, everyone would feel despair. If that's the case, they won't go around our country. They'll deal with us first before dealing with Qin Yin. Do you understand this logic? "
"I understand, I understand, Master. I mean, can't we just scare them a little?"
"How do you know I'm not scaring you? Go, come back when it's dark. There aren't many people I can use in Ceylon City. " Salin sent Nelis away with a smile. He took out the dimensional stone, released the Elemental Magic Tower, and began to craft equipment for Rex. He had obtained so many red crystals that he could use them extravagantly. Rex was good at fire magic, so Salin decided to make a special equipment for him.
Nelis had also recovered in the past few days. The Demon God Incarnation was seriously damaged, and half of its heart had melted. Fortunately, the body left by the God Infant and the power of the believers in the body, as well as the nearly a thousand blue monster corpses, allowed Nelis's Demon God Incarnation to recover quickly.
She knew that Salin wanted to kill Alphonso personally, so she did not dare to act recklessly. She could only take the letter, transform into a Demon God, and rush to Brilliant Sun City.
The brand-new Demon God Incarnation had three heads and four arms, but the wings were gone. Nelis did not use demonic magic to fly, but ran in the wilderness. She did not hide her aura. Her power was close to level ten, so the beasts did not dare to approach. With the two arms behind her, it was also troublesome to transform into Demon God's Wings. She had to retract her arms. Nelis felt that her running speed was not bad.
Ceylon City was less than five hundred kilometers from Brilliant Sun City. Because of the roads, she had to take a long detour. Nelis crossed the mountains and walked in a straight line.
When she arrived at the outskirts of Brilliance City, it wasn't even noon yet. Nelis looked at the city from afar, it was an impregnable pass.
If Ceylon City did not have a port, the road to the north would be blocked by Brilliant Sun City. After all, merchants and troops could not cross the mountains like Nelis.
Nelis chuckled. Although this Brilliant Sun City was huge, compared to Iron Wall City, it was still a far cry. This place was not near the sea, so there was no way out. On the narrow plains, such a city was still an obstacle for ordinary troops, but for Salin's troops, they could easily flatten it.
Outside the city stood a seven-story Magic Tower. Nelis's eyes were sharp, and she saw that there was an extra section at the top of the Magic Tower. It seemed that this Magic Shooter was about to advance to level eight.
The city gates of Brilliant Sun City were tightly closed, and it was a desolate scene. Nelis's smile turned into a sneer. Earl Alphonso also knew that Salin had returned. Did he think that everything would be fine after closing the city gates?
She opened the Demon God Purgatory and summoned a thousand demons. Now that Nelis could open a huge opening in the 12 Movements of Purgatory, the speed at which she summoned the creatures inside was much faster. It was not like in the past, where they had to queue up to enter and exit.
A thousand demons, fully armed, followed Nelis outside the Magic Tower. The Magic Tower did not immediately launch an attack. Nelis stood a hundred meters away and reached out to summon a demon. She handed the letter to the demon and asked him to deliver it to the Magic Tower.
Inside the Magic Tower, Magic Shooter Juan looked at the demon army coming from afar with complicated emotions. If it was in the past, he would have launched an attack long ago and captured a few demons for research. But now? Everyone knew that the king of the Metatlin Kingdom had a demon army under him.
If he attacked these demons, he did not know how long he would live.
Curiosity killed people. No matter how tempting the research was, Juan could not really make a move. He was even a little nervous. He heard that Salin had already seized Ceylon City and was expanding the city and building a fortress. It seemed like he was going to stay here permanently. What should he do? He was very clear about the hatred between Alphonso and Salin.
There was absolutely no way to reconcile. If his family's cemetery was destroyed, he would not have endured for so long. He would have long thought of a way to kill Alphonso. Salin had endured until now because he was plotting against the entire Brilliant Sun City.
Seeing the tall demon walk in, Magic Shooter Juan ordered his magic apprentices to go out. The magic apprentice was so scared that his legs were trembling, but he did not dare to disobey the Magic Shooter's orders.
Fortunately, the ugly demon did not do anything too excessive. He only handed the letter to the apprentice and stood outside the Magic Tower to wait. Inside the Magic Tower, Juan looked at the demon and felt his heart itch.
This was a perfect demon, a top-notch test subject. It had two sharp horns, four thick limbs, a long tail, and heavy armor. Its deep purple eyes were half closed, and it held a heavy Zhanmadao in its hand.
This demon's aura was that of a true warrior. While Juan's thoughts were still wandering, the apprentice had already brought the letter.
The envelope was not big, and it was not sealed with wax. Juan took out the letter and did not read the content. His line of defense had already been broken by Salin. This letter was made of star-patterned paper.
Astrologers no longer existed. This kind of material suitable for making scrolls had only appeared in Alchemy City. The price was several times higher than normal scroll materials.
The content of the letter was very simple. Salin used dragon blood ink to write — Sir Magician, please leave Brilliant Sun City. Otherwise, this will be the second Iron Wall City.
Signed off by Salin? Metatlin.
Juan's heart skipped a beat. The star-patterned paper in his hand suddenly burned. This was his own spiritual power activating the hidden magic in the star-patterned paper. Salin was not plotting against him. He was just warning Juan that a Magic Shooter like him was no threat to Salin.
Juan had thought of many possibilities. He even imagined that Salin would hire him with a large sum of money, or bribe him to leave. After all, he was already a Level-Eight Magic Shooter. He would not be considered weak anywhere.
Now that Salin had sent him a letter, the content of the letter made him feel humiliated.
Juan squeezed the ashes in his hand. His knuckles turned white, and his bones made light cracking sounds. This Salin had gone too far. He let go of the ashes, and his mood calmed down.
He could not be angry. He definitely could not be angry. Salin had a reason to take revenge. Back then, he had offended another Magician who protected Salin. Speaking of which, he also had a share of Salin's hatred.
Juan kept comforting himself. Although Salin's methods were rough, he had treated Su Fang Suo differently. He looked at the thousand demons outside the Magic Tower and their leader, and could only suppress his anger.
What right did he have to be angry? Should he stay and help Su Fang Suo?
Iron Wall City had nine Magic Towers and three Level-Nine Magic Shooters, but they could not defend it. How could Brilliance City be a match for Salin?
As for whether Salin dared to kill, Iron Wall City had already given him the answer. Millions of people had died in that war. How many people were there in Brilliance City? What would Salin not dare to do?
He was thinking about how to reply to Salin when he saw the leader of the demons walk over to the Magic Tower. The demon slowly flew up. Juan's eyes stared blankly. This way of flying meant that the demon had reached Level-Nine.
Level-Nine? That was a Great Demon!
Looking at Neris's three-headed form, Juan was a little dazed. She did not look like a Magic Shooter at all.
"Open the window and talk," Neris said to the Magic Tower.
Juan subconsciously activated the magic array and opened a window. He did not even realize that his mood was controlled by the demon.
"You …" Juan looked at the demon in front of him, not knowing what to say.
