[It's time for the fourth update. The overall ranking will soon drop another place. The overall ranking is nothing. Today, the classification has been pulled closer by 20 votes by the one behind. There's still a guarantee. Don't keep it in your hands and watch. The goal is the classification's monthly votes. This month, it's to fight for pride. Some people say that I definitely won't get it.]
"I'll also write the third contract." After Salin wrote the second astrologer contract, he made a request.
"Sure." The third contract was handed to Salin. Salin erased the words on it. This time, he used magic to write a total of 36,000 magic words.
This contract was extremely strict. Salin took great pains to plug all the loopholes in the contract. He didn't expect to take advantage of these souls. He only hoped that he wouldn't be sold in the end. Therefore, this contract was written in his favor. It looked like a greedy mage who was trying his best to seek benefits for himself.
All cautiousness was hidden under greed. That was all Salin could do. Magic was the most rigorous of all languages. It even seemed rigid and annoying. Mages only used magic when using magic. Usually, they would use their favorite language.
Aragon also used magic to leave his name on the contract. Salin was very greedy, but none of his requests were excessive. They were all within the tolerance of the heroic spirits.
After signing the third contract, Salin had to come to the Abyss King City after a thousand years. For the outside world, it was only a hundred years.
After the three contracts were signed, the Grand Master emerged. He reached out and tore open a spatial rift in front of him. He threw Salin's Coiled Turtle Alchemy Ship into it. The Coiled Turtle Alchemy Ship traveled thousands of miles and re-entered the core of the Abyss King City.
Salin simply let the Winged Skeleton put away the Coiled Turtle Alchemy Ship. Eleanor returned to the Dark Purgatory. Even the Ancient Warriors were sent to the Dark Purgatory by Salin to accompany Eleanor.
In the end, the Winged Skeleton couldn't persuade Salin and also entered the Twelve Movements of Purgatory to hide. Salin only left Nelis behind. He took out the key that Aragon had given him, threaded it with a magic rope, and hung it around his neck.
"Master, don't believe the words of those bastards." Nelis didn't look too good. This was the depths of the Abyss King City. She and Salin stood in the center of a long street. On both sides of the street were tall mansions. In front of each door, there was a pair of statues. The power contained in these statues was no longer the same as the ones at the edge of the city. They were existences that could directly kill him.
At the end of the street, three miles away, there was a wooden building over a thousand meters tall.
Needless to say, the carvings on the wooden building were all stars. It would be strange if it wasn't the Astrology Tower. However, there seemed to be a lot of dangerous things behind the gates on both sides of the long street. Could it be that he and his master were going to cross this three-mile long street?
That Great Guru must have done it on purpose. Otherwise, he could have made the Coiled Turtle Alchemy Ship move forward another three miles to the Astrology Tower.
However, Nelis was overthinking. When a Guru was alive, he was a level-17 mage. After he died, although his soul was still at level-17, the power he could control was only at level-16. Even a level-18 Aragon could not reach the Astrology Tower directly.
The Star Divination Tower was very important in the Abyss King City. Back then, the king would also get off the carriage three miles away from the Star Divination Tower and walk there. The houses on both sides of the street were occupied by astrologers. The status of these astrologers was no lower than that of mages. In many cases, astrologers occupied a very powerful position in the kingdom.
Astrologers could not only predict, but also fight. Their fighting methods were extremely strange and impossible to guard against. If it weren't for the fact that the powerful skills of astrologers would damage their own vitality, astrologers would have long surpassed mages and become the rulers of the continent.
If a level-18 astrologer went all out, no profession of the same level would be able to resist.
The Star Divination Tower of the Abyss King City was the center of the whole city. The palace could only be at the back, and magic towers were not allowed to be built nearby. The Great Guru was very proud and would never explain this to Salin.
Salin saw Nelis reminding him, and said, "Nelis, I can only trust the people around me. This contract was signed without any choice, so of course I won't take it to heart. But this matter has to be discussed when we go back. "
Salin did not want to say more. He also sensed the danger nearby, but there would definitely be no life in those courtyards. The long street under their feet was paved with rocks without gaps. These rocks had been eroded by the sea for hundreds of thousands of years, but there was no damage at all.
Salin's Elemental Eyes saw that the stone ground under his feet was different from other places in the King City. The six elements were balanced! However, there were no magic patterns carved on the streets. They were just star maps drawn with vermilion paint. Although these paint were high-level, they should not have withstood the power of time. The color should have faded long ago and been washed away by the sea.
However, the star charts on this long street seemed to have been drawn yesterday.
Was this the power of astrologers? It was thousands of times more powerful than the energy balance law he had learned!
Salin's throat slid, but he felt his mouth dry. The Water Pattern Shield stuck to the surface of his body opened, and Salin poured himself a whole bottle of magic fluid. He didn't use his magic staff, but instead took out his demonic spellbook. This demonic spellbook could store six spells, but these six spells didn't have any rank restrictions.
This was the most practical magic equipment Salin had. Because he had not had the chance to use it before, Salin had almost forgotten about it. Now he had to take it out. The long street was three miles long. When he rushed through this street, he might not have the chance to take a second magic staff.
In the Graveyard of Heroes, the voices of the souls were chaotic. Aragon, the Grandmaster, an archer, and an assassin were gathered together.
Aragon said, "Grandmaster, which side of the Astrology Tower did you throw them to?"
"The north."
"Don't you know that the north is dangerous?" the archer asked angrily.
"Yes, the north is the queen, but that is where the astrologers live. There will also be …"
"Don't say it! Damn it, I also wanted to test them. If Salin could not pass through that street, what hope would there be for us to bring the Divine Artifact? "
"You want a level-eight mage to fight against the astrologers? Grandmaster, is there something wrong with your head?" Aragon said angrily.
"Yes, there is something wrong with my head. None of you are. Does the contract that Salin signed with us have any restrictions on him?"
"No, but if he wants to obtain great power, he has to come back and find us. The skills he has stored can only be trained to level-twelve. Without the guidance of a teacher, he can't get anything!" the assassin said gloomily. Among the four leaders, his strength was not low, but his position was the lowest. As for the Grandmaster, he could not criticize him directly. That was different from mocking him. Criticizing him meant that he was challenging the Grandmaster's position.
"Isn't level-twelve power strong enough for him? Furthermore, we are not the only Royal City outside the mainland. If Salin is smart enough, he will find another Royal City. "
"Other Royal City? I'm afraid only the Graveyard of Heroes is left? "
"You!" Aragon was infuriated by the Grandmaster. If he knew that the Grandmaster would be like this, he would have sent Salin and the rest away personally. The Astrology Tower could be entered from the front, and it was very safe with the key. However, the street behind was the private residence of the astrologers. The items inside were made by the astrologers themselves, and had nothing to do with the defense system of the Astrology Tower.
"Why are you angry? If Salin does not want to take the test, he can just turn around and leave. "The Grandmaster said disapprovingly. To him, it was a simple matter to go around the house behind the Astrology Tower.
"He is here to train. I am not a mage, but I can tell that his inheritance is very special. If he turns around and leaves, it will affect his cultivation. Grandmaster, with your level, you should be able to tell, right? "
"Then I'm helping him." The Grandmaster threw down this sentence, turned around, and entered his tombstone, unwilling to come out again.
"General!" The surrounding high-level Heroic Spirits all looked at Aragon. Aragon waved his hand and said, "Salin has already entered the territory of the Astrology Tower. There is nothing I can do. Let's go back. Whether he survives or not depends on his luck."
Aragon looked into the distance. If Salin died, he would definitely not let the Grandmaster off. How could Salin's thoughts be hidden from him? When one's soul reached level-eighteen, one could feel everything in another person's heart. It was fine if Salin did not want to return. He would be tempted by other things in the Royal City. As long as Salin returned to the Abyss Royal City, Aragon would have a way to let Salin automatically return to the Graveyard of Heroes.
The difference between the two was too great. Aragon had left a mark on Salin's body, hidden in Ismail's Mark of Hatred. Salin could not detect it at all.
The Graveyard of Heroes would not protect the soul forever. Salin might be their last chance. The words of the Astrology Master back then had come true. The one who came to save them was indeed a weak king.
On the surface of Salin's body, the Water Pattern Shield turned into a shuttle shape. Neris rushed to the front, holding up the White Bone Shield. A tall blade shield blocked a kilometer away. Neris held a spear in her right hand and ran forward in her little demon form. Her tail was pulled into a straight line, and her body was lowered, increasing her speed to the extreme.
Salin followed behind Neris. He held a demonic magic book in one hand, and a magic staff made by Joey in the other. The magic staff given to him by the Grandmaster did not store any magic. This made Salin's impression of the Grandmaster even worse.
If possible, he would try his best not to fulfill the conditions of the contract, and never return to the graveyard for the next transaction.
As for the Royal City, he could still return. The materials here were not rare, but they were all gathered together, and the quantity was large enough. There were so many stones, crystals, and elemental creatures. They were all things that he could use in the future.
A hundred meters ahead, there was a large door. The two stone statues in front of the door were a pair of fairies. The Astrology Master's taste was really different to use fairy stone statues to guard the door.
