[Part 3]
Nelis killed the Magic Shooter of Brilliance City on her own initiative, but she still remembered that Salin told her to go back before dark. She didn't want to disobey this order.
After convincing Aston to deceive Su Fonso, Nelis left the magic tower and conveniently planted insect eggs on the twelve magic apprentices. As long as Nelis was willing, these insect eggs could hatch at any time. It was easy to deal with these magic apprentices.
Nelis also left five familiars. Using the ultimate transformation spell, she changed them into the appearance of the mages and left them in the magic tower. These familiars could also hatch the insect eggs. This completely cut off the possibility of the twelve apprentices betraying her.
As for Aston, Nelis didn't use any tricks. If this white-robed mage could still complete the mission without being controlled, Nelis didn't mind helping him find a teacher.
The familiars packed up the valuable things in the magic tower and all returned to the Demon God Purgatory. The demons that Nelis prepared to use to besiege were also not used. The Magic Shooter of Scochenia was too careless and was stabbed to death by her. The demons also returned to the Demon God Purgatory. She avoided the main road and flew back to the outskirts of Ceylon along the route she came.
Seeing that Nelis had returned, Salin stopped what he was doing and asked Nelis about Brilliance City's reaction.
Nelis didn't hide anything and told Salin about her own initiative. Salin frowned and asked, "Why did you kill that Magic Shooter?"
"Master, this guy read your letter and still wanted to negotiate with you. He's not a good person. If you let him go, he'll go against you sooner or later. " Nelis was also speaking the truth. She couldn't even deceive Salin unless she took the initiative to remove the soul contract.
"Nelis, would I be afraid of a Level Eight Magic Shooter?"
"You're not afraid, but the people around you may not all be as strong as you. Master, it's better to kill such trouble directly. "Nelis refuted Salin. If other mages saw this scene, their jaws would drop in shock.
How could a contracted creature refute its master?
Salin didn't mind. Now he found that he could understand Nelis's thoughts more and more clearly. This was the most perfect embodiment of the soul contract.
In a sense, Salin inadvertently made the soul contract between him and Nelis reach a perfect state. In this state, there would be no misunderstandings between the two of them, and Neris could understand Salin's orders without having to express them clearly. During the battle, the coordination between the two sides was absolutely flawless.
Sarin had a lot of contract creatures. Strictly speaking, those elemental creatures and Desolate Warriors were all contract creatures. But there was only one smart person like Neris who could advance infinitely.
"Forget it, Nelis. You still don't understand. I didn't ask you to persuade the High Mage to leave because I didn't plan to attack the Brilliant Sun City immediately. I can't really destroy Brilliant Sun City. This city is mine and I have to take it back. Killing Count Alphonso would be easy. Even if he was a Gold Sword Saint, I wouldn't feel any pressure. But I want it to be legitimate. "
"Master, is it justifiable to rob someone else's city?"
"I'm going to destroy Iron Wall City to take revenge on Donnie for attacking my Lone Star City. Count Alphonso and I have a personal grudge against each other. If I were to take over Radiant Sun City, there would be a lot of trouble. I have to make Radiant Sun City attack me first and then counterattack justifiably. I originally planned to let the High Mage leave and transfer the magic tower to me. My mages are outside the city and Count Alphonso doesn't even dare to open the city gates. "
Nelis more or less understood. Sarin wanted to slowly increase the pressure on Alphonso.
"Scotia isn't Kein, and Brilliant Sun City is much larger than Ceylon City. The food storage won't last long. If Count Alphonso wants to protect his city, he has to ask for help from the imperial capital. No matter how fast Port Royal is being constructed, it won't be able to stop Scotia's all-out attack. If Donnie decides to attack Port Royal, Rex will have to retreat to the sea. I have to let Donnie deal with me first. When the imperial capital's reinforcements arrive at Brilliant Sun City, they will definitely attack the magic tower and even send troops to attack my Ceylon City's territory. "
Nelis was speechless. The incident at Iron Wall City had already caused the nobles to panic. If the imperial capital ignored Alphonso's request for help, Scotia wouldn't be far from disintegration.
This wasn't a brilliant trick, but Donnie had no choice but to follow Sarin's plan. If he really managed to assassinate Alphonso, it would instead be beneficial to Donnie. He would appeal to the nobles everywhere to unite and resist the invasion of the Metatlin Kingdom.
Sarin's idea was too evil. Even if he didn't attack, he would still make Alphonso on tenterhooks.
"Master, I understand."
"What do you understand?"
"Humans are indeed much worse than demons." Nelis sincerely praised. She thought that she was sinister enough, but compared to her master, she was too lacking!
"Hmm, let's not talk about this anymore. Go again tomorrow and replace all the people in the magic tower with Familiars. Just bring Aston over. I can't just kill people wherever I go. I'll do what you promised him. "
Nelis was relieved that Sarin didn't pursue the matter of her acting on her own. She was really afraid that Sarin would be angry. If it wasn't for Juan's unruly behavior, she wouldn't have immediately changed her mind to kill him.
Sarin needed enemies to sharpen himself, but not someone like Juan. Nelis wanted to clear the obstacles for Sarin. Her master's goal was to unify the Myer Continent, so he couldn't always be entangled by small matters.
"Where did you put the soul of that Magic Shooter?" Sarin felt that Nelis didn't ruin his plan, so he didn't continue to pursue it. He still had to forge equipment for Rex. Before the equipment was forged, he had to let the Brilliance Sun City be on tenterhooks for a while.
Nelis took out the doll. She learned the method of the Vatican and injected the soul into the doll's head. There was indeed the ability to store souls. However, although Nelis was good at controlling souls, she couldn't make the Magic Shooter's soul and the doll fuse. Her method was also rough, and the Magic Shooter's soul had already begun to weaken.
If she didn't refine it for too long, the Magic Shooter's soul would dissipate sooner or later, and she wouldn't even have the chance to become an Undead.
Sarin took out a small jade bottle, handed it to Nelis, and said, "This is the Dread Angel's bone marrow essence. How many Crimson Soul Towers can you forge?"
Nelis took the bottle in her hand, weighed it, and said, "Four, or five, but it's best if it's four."
"Four then. You keep two and give the other two to me."
Nelis didn't ask much and began to forge the Crimson Soul Tower on the spot. This Crimson Soul Tower would only be precious if the Dread Angel's bone marrow was added. Otherwise, it would only be slightly stronger than a Soul Pearl. Most of the bone marrow was used by Sarin for research. There wasn't much left, especially the essence. Sarin gave all of it to Nelis because he knew that Nelis needed souls.
Nelis felt warm in her heart, and she quickly began to forge the Crimson Soul Tower. Sarin released water flames at the side and continued to forge equipment for Rex. He was forging a necklace. Water flames compressed and refined the Red Crystal to form a natural mageweath. The structure was interlocking, and there were no unnecessary decorations on the surface.
Sarin barely opened up a space in the Red Crystal and carved the mageweath inside so that the necklace could store fire elements. Rex was good at fire magic, and she was already a level-9 Magic Shooter. She could transform elements, and her magic strings weren't limited by elements.
Sarin forged this necklace for her because he thought that she might encounter more harsh environments in the future, such as elemental isolation. In an environment lacking elements, the combat power of a Mage would plummet.
Such an environment wouldn't appear naturally on the continent. Once it did, it meant that she had encountered a powerful enemy. This necklace could store a large amount of fire elements. Even if Rex was trapped in an environment lacking elements, she could still release the most powerful attacks. This was more precious than any equipment. Sarin worked carefully, and time passed unknowingly.
Nelis completed the forging of the Crimson Soul Tower first. She knew that it would be difficult for her to forge a puppet, so she simply stuffed the Magic Shooter's soul into the Crimson Soul Tower. Nelis was very envious of the puppet in Sarin's hands, but Sarin didn't have any intention of forging it. She didn't have the ability to do it herself. Looking at the tattered puppet in her hands, Nelis's eyes darted around.
She couldn't understand how the Astrologer controlled the puppet, but she could imitate the method that Van Gogh used. A powerful puppet was much more useful than a Primordial Warrior, and it could be repaired. The owner had the Star Condensing Needle. If the puppet was damaged, it could be repaired.
In the white water flames, a red necklace floated. The necklace was made of the purest Red Crystal. All the temperature had been suppressed, and the mageweath on the surface of the Red Crystal was naturally connected. It was as if it was not a crystal, but a necklace made of hundreds of red copper wires.
The only disjointed part was a gap the size of a fingernail. Sarin said, "Nelis, give me a Crimson Soul Tower."
Nelis reluctantly threw a Crimson Soul Tower into the water flames. The Crimson Soul Tower automatically floated into the gap of the necklace. The water flames expanded violently, and the red necklace was finally completed. The Crimson Soul Tower was like a gem, embedded in the middle of the necklace.
Seeing that the necklace was completed, Sarin slowly put away the water flames. From the corner of his eyes, he saw Nelis put away the two Crimson Soul Towers, as if she was afraid that he would snatch them.
"Nelis, do you really want to forge a puppet?" Sarin was in a good mood after everything was done. The Red Crystal consumed by this necklace was enough for the Dragon Skeleton Warship to fly for two to three years. One could imagine the amount of fire elements that could be stored in this necklace.
"Master, that puppet …"
"Van Gogh's puppet can't be moved. It's a Battle Puppet, and it's controlled by divine arts. Unless I can completely destroy the Astrologer's power, this thing has absorbed the power of the stars. Even the two of us together won't be able to defeat it."
Nelis pouted and asked, "Master, what do we do next?"
