(Today's Chapter 2)
The 140th chapter "Dual Identity"
Rodriguez didn't dare to delay any longer. If this matter alarms the Magician's Guild, then the trouble will not be small! Unwilling to give up, he glanced at the distant Saint Level magic creature.
Humph! After reaching great success in his martial arts, it's rare for him to encounter such a strong opponent! For a Saint Level to be able to fight another Saint Level opponent, that's the biggest wish of a martial artist! Unfortunately, it seems the situation is not right today. That Magician companion of his is simply reckless!
Letting out a sigh, he suddenly retracted his Dou Qi. Looking at Prince Son from afar, he loudly said: "Your Highness, let's call it a day. You have the protection of the Holy Roland Protector, so this matter of mine can be considered a failure. But since I didn't succeed, the Crown Prince will most likely ask me to deal with you in the future! "
With that, Rodriguez turned around and leaped into the air. Disappearing into the sky, his silver figure shot towards the direction of the battle between Du Wei and the Black Magician.
Prince Son was finally able to breathe a sigh of relief.
Although the Saint Roland's guardian spirit is powerful, it has a big weakness. This magic creature was created for the purpose of protection. When faced with an enemy attack, it will naturally protect itself, but it cannot chase after the enemy. When the Guardian Deity was activated, the Guardian Deity would stay by his side, but it could not go far away.
Moreover, it will disappear at a fixed time. If the battle continues, then after half an hour, the magic creature will disappear and Rodriguez will be able to easily kill him.
Standing up from the ground, Prince Son gazed into the distance where Rodriguez was. Faintly, he could feel the tremors of the dark magic coming from afar. Letting out a sigh, he said: "Du-Wei … … I'm afraid he's in trouble."
•
Du Wei is indeed in trouble right now!
He was sitting in the middle of the Guardian God's Enchantment. The Treants he summoned had all been sucked dry and turned into rotten tree trunks.
With the black magic fog shrouding his surroundings, the Guardian Spirit Barrier's radiance is already incomparably dim. It's getting smaller and smaller, and the light curtain is getting thinner and thinner. I'm afraid at any time, the barrier will collapse!
Up in the sky, the Black Magician's grin could be heard from time to time: "Boy! You've destroyed so many of my magical creatures. You'll pay for it with your life! Ah, that horn of yours is also a very good item. It can make up for my loss! "
Humph, you want my Horn of Life? Although Du Wei was furious, he was also helpless. Although his mana was not bad, the spells he knew were far too few. He had never systematically practiced real magic, and was completely clueless about such high-level Necromancy Magic. He didn't even know how to deal with it.
Just as Du Wei was in imminent danger, a golden light suddenly flashed through the thick black smoke. A figure, protected by the golden light, broke through the black smoke and barged in! The black magic smoke that devoured all life elemental energy was actually unable to harm that person in the slightest!
Rodriguez recklessly rushed into the smoke and flew to the side of the Black Magician. "You're crazy!" He immediately shouted. "You're crazy! This was the Imperial Capital! If we provoke the Magician Enforcement Team, we'll both be in trouble! "
The black magician was about to angrily retort when he suddenly heard a sharp cry from the distant sky! That voice was extremely strange! It came from the direction of the Imperial Capital!
The black magician used the Eagle's Eye spell to look in the direction of the Imperial Capital. Under the spell, he saw four black figures in the sky a few miles away. They were shrouded in black magician robes, with pointed hats and badges on their chests. Sure enough, they were the bane of all magicians, the Magician's Guild's Magician Enforcement Team!
The black magician was shocked and hurriedly shouted, "We've startled these monsters! Let's go! "
After saying that, he quickly chanted an incantation, and the black smoke was quickly sucked up by him. However, due to the haste, there were still some remnants of the black smoke that were not collected in time, but they were pulled away by Rodriguez and fled far away.
The four Magician Enforcement Team members were extremely fast. The distance of a few miles was covered in a moment. Du Wei sat on the ground and looked at the four black figures in the sky. Under the cover of their black robes, they were like four ghosts! Du-Wei's spiritual power could even feel four gloomy divine senses sweeping back and forth in search of his surroundings. Even the Guardian Spirit Barrier was unable to stop them. The four streams of mental power easily broke through the barrier and directly swept towards him!
Du Wei had once suffered a loss at the hands of these monsters in the Sorcerers Guild. He knew that they had a special ability to deal with magicians. How would he dare to use his mental strength to search for them! He sat obediently in the Guardian God Enchantment. Fortunately, these monsters did not seem to have any interest in Du Wei. After searching once, they immediately roared and chased into the distance.
Du Wei sat for a while longer before he stood up and breathed a sigh of relief. His whole body was as if he had just been fished out of water. Even his underwear was soaked. Overexerting his mental strength, he couldn't help but feel a little dizzy. He quickly absorbed the stored mana from his ring and felt a little better.
At this moment, the surroundings were quiet. In the distance, behind a mountain peak, there was a faint light, as if the sun was about to rise.
Du Wei patted the dust off his body. Last night's battle was really thrilling. It was the first time he faced a high-level magician in a duel to the death. Moreover, it was the most terrifying necromancer. He was a little too careless. If it wasn't for the fact that the other party was in a hurry to leave, he would have died!
Du Wei secretly reminded himself to remember that if he encountered such an enemy in the future, he must not be so reckless!
There were still some remnants of black gas in the air, lingering on some withered tree trunks. At this moment, within a radius of a few hundred meters, there was a withered mess. None of the flowers, plants, or trees on the ground were alive!
Little by little, the sun's rays emerged from the back of the mountain. As if extremely afraid of the light, the remaining black gas quickly scattered in all directions. Then, as if attracted by something, it began to converge towards Du-Wei's direction in an orderly manner!
Du Wei was startled at first, but then he found that the residual black gas was very weak and couldn't do any harm to him. It only clung to the Guardian Barrier.
The black gas seemed to have some kind of strange fluctuation, and it even faintly emitted shrill screams. Du Wei was curious … This necromancy magic was really strange. This magic smoke seemed to have self-awareness?
In fact, the black gas had absorbed a large amount of Life Element tonight. Whether it was flowers, plants, or trees, they were all living creatures. Although the dark mage had lost a lot of magical creatures refined, and even the strongest bone dragon had been torn apart, relying on the Life Element absorbed by the black gas had also replenished a lot of mana. It was not a small supplement.
Du Wei's heart skipped a beat. He suddenly remembered that he had bought a dark crystal ball from the Magician's Guild. At this moment, looking at the black gas remaining in the surroundings, he couldn't help but take out the crystal ball.
As soon as he took it out, Du Wei was immediately stunned! He didn't use any magic at all, nor did he control the crystal ball (In fact, Du Wei had never learned necromancy magic before, so he didn't know how to use it). However, the black gas seemed to have been forced into a corner under the sunlight. After Du Wei took out the crystal ball, the black gas automatically rushed towards it. In less than a moment, all of the black gas was sucked into the crystal ball without leaving a single trace behind!
Faced with such a strange thing, Du Wei was first startled. Looking at his crystal ball, the originally crystal clear surface of the crystal ball seemed to have been dyed with ink. Pieces of black gas were swirling back and forth inside the crystal ball. After a while, the black gas was absorbed into the crystal ball and disappeared without a trace. However, the crystal ball seemed to have turned even darker! Originally, it was made of black crystal, but at this moment, it was so black that it seemed to be shining like black silk!
Since Du Wei didn't understand, he decided to wait until he went back and ask Gege Wu. Perhaps that mouse might know something.
After waiting for a while, Prince Son finally arrived with his men.
A team of several hundred imperial guards, the injured Chick, and even the carriage of the four female magic apprentices followed behind.
Chick's injuries weren't light. His whole body was stained with blood and bandaged up like a mummy. It seems that he will have to wait until he returns to the capital to find someone from the Shrines to heal him.
Although Prince Son's face was pale, he was very happy to see Du Wei. With a smile, he hugged Du Wei and said: "I knew it. How could the dignified disciple of Master Gandorf be so easily killed by a black magician? I really didn't misjudge you."
On the other hand, Chick suddenly saw the crescent-shaped bow on Du Wei's back. He couldn't help but turn pale with fright: "Nirvana's Bow! Denello's Bow of Nirvana? You killed Deneiro? "
Nirvana's Bow? Du Wei immediately remembered the expert he killed last night. Nodding, he said: "Yes, I took it from a guy I killed."
Prince Son glanced at Chick: "Do you see it clearly? Is it really Denello? "
"Humph! If it's not Denello, who can hurt me with a bow! Humph! " Chick gave a complicated look at the bow on Du Wei's back: "Moreover, I also recognize this Nirvana's Bow. It's a treasure gifted to Denello by the Crown Prince. If it weren't for this Bow of Nirvana, how could one of the continent's top archers be recruited by the Crown Prince?"
Prince Son clapped his hands and laughed: "That big brother of mine lost a lot last night. Not only did he lose an expert he recruited, but he also lost such a treasure." With that, he looked at Du Wei: "Since this bow was taken by you, then it's yours."
Chick was still unwilling to give up. He sighed and said, "What a pity. This is the most famous magic bow on the continent. It is the best weapon to deal with mages. Who knows how many mages have died under this bow in history. Today, it has fallen into the hands of a mage …"
Specialized to deal with Mages? Du Wei's eyes lit up as he smiled: "I can't see through this thing … … There's only a bow, but no arrows … …"
"What do you know." Chick shook his head: "This bow doesn't use arrows."
Prince Son laughed and said: "Okay Chick, don't say anymore. The sky is already bright, let's hurry back to the capital. "
•
Under the protection of the guards, the group returned to the capital. Prince Son was very enthusiastic towards Du Wei. Obviously, after seeing how Du Wei was able to fight against a powerful Dark Mage, his evaluation of Du Wei went up a few notches. Du Wei only wanted to return home as soon as possible. There were still a lot of questions he had yet to clear up.
Once again, he recognized his biggest weakness in keeping a low profile: He knew too little about the situation in the capital!
Prince Son sent Du Wei back to the Earl's mansion before leaving. As soon as Du Wei entered the door, he saw Captain Alpha standing at the door. Glancing at Du Wei, this Rollin Family's guard captain's face turned ugly as he whispered: "Master Du Wei, the Earl wants to see you. Now!"
His eyes drifted over to the Nirvana Bow on Du Wei's back, causing Alpha's face to change color. His expression immediately became a bit unnatural, and even his eyes seemed to be in a trance for a moment. Lowering his head, he turned around and walked in front.
Once again, Du Wei entered his father's study room.
It seems like the Earl didn't sleep all night, but there wasn't a trace of fatigue on his old face. Only his eyes were bloodshot. When Du Wei came in, the Earl was holding a silk handkerchief and gently wiping a long sword.
Du Wei recognized that this was the sword that accompanied his father for many years. His father used this sword to lead the fleet on three expeditions to the southern seas.
When Du Wei came in, the Earl looked at him for a moment before solemnly putting the sword back into the scabbard. Only then did he turn around to look at his son.
Although he also saw the Nirvana Bow on Du Wei's back, his eyes only twitched twice before calming down. Grabbing a piece of paper from the table, the Earl handed it over.
"This is what I got yesterday, but since you didn't come back last night, I couldn't give it to you. Take a look at it now!"
Du Wei took a look at the piece of paper. It was an official document, and the signature at the bottom was impressively written by the current emperor, Augustine the 6th! The official document was issued in the name of the Empire's finance minister and the military's high command!
"This letter will be announced to the public today. Once it is announced, it will be released to the public. Du Wei, my son, you will become the center of attention. "The Earl sighed:" You were with Prince Son last night, right? Humph, did he try to win you over? I already heard about what happened last night … … Now that the imperial guards are on high alert, assassinating a prince … … Sigh. Du Wei, do you know? I didn't sleep last night because I knew you were with Prince Son. My heart was very worried! "
Du Wei was speechless. His face didn't show any expression, but his heart was set off a huge wave!
Because it was written very clearly in this document!
"Imperial Magic Academy Establishment Order"
The first half of the document was filled with some pompous words. For example, in order to supplement the combat strength of the imperial army, in order to provide enough magicians to the army, and in order to further expand the military's combat strength. At the same time, to promote magic and improve the current situation of the continent's lack of magicians … …
The second half of the document was what shocked Du Wei the most!
The first academy committee of the Magic Academy will consist of 15 Magic Scholars! And Du Wei's name is impressively among them!
"Of these 15 Magic Scholars, 7 of them belong to the Magician's Guild and represent the Magician's Guild! As for the other 7, four of them are loyal to the military and three of them are court magicians! Originally, out of the 14 Magicians, the Magician's Guild took up 7 spots, and we took up 7 spots. Both sides were evenly matched and were originally in a balanced situation! But you … … are the 15th! Whichever side you side with, it will have a decisive effect on the situation! "
The Count carefully stared at his son: "Now, do you understand why you triggered an assassination attempt and why the magic union tried to rope you in before you even arrived at the capital?"
Duwei took a deep breath and put down the document, "You want me to be part of your body? I'm young, I don't have much experience, and my abilities are also very limited! Why do you want me to enter this Magic Academy's committee? "
"Because of your teacher." The Count smiled bitterly: "Maybe you don't know … … The first person to propose the establishment of the Magic Academy was Master Gandorf! But he left the Magician's Guild for many years and this matter was always put aside. It was only in recent years that he reappeared once! That time, he entered the palace alone and convinced the Emperor. Unfortunately, because of the establishment of the Magic Academy, it involved too much profit distribution … … "
"Of course!" Du Wei smiled coldly: "The establishment of the Magic Academy represents the popularization of magicians! And it also breaks the Magician's Guild's monopoly on magicians! The Magician's Guild must be very opposed to this plan, right? Moreover, magicians have always been passed down in private. Now that we want to use the Magic Academy to train a large number of magicians … … The new generation of magicians that will be trained will become a powerful force! Who this force will be loyal to, who they will listen to … … This is the key! "
"Yes, this matter is too important, so it was decided after many years of arguing." The Count smiled bitterly: "And although both sides are arguing, they are united on one issue, and that is that the first director of the Magic Academy must be Master Gandorf!"
Yes, the continent's most recognized legendary magician, Gandorf, is indeed the most suitable candidate.
"Unfortunately, Gandorf suddenly passed away before the announcement of the establishment of the Magic Academy, and you … … are his disciple! So, if not you, who will be chosen? "
Du Wei put down the document: "I don't understand. I'm not the only disciple of Gandorf, so why not choose someone else? "
The Count smiled: "Because you are the youngest! Because you are my son! We are fighting too fiercely with the Magician's Guild. Originally it was seven against seven, and no one agreed to have one more person! But with your appearance, everyone finally came to an agreement! You are my son, and at the same time, Gandorf's disciple … … You are equivalent to representing the interests of both sides! Choosing you is the most suitable choice. "
"But, why are you telling me now? Weren't you going to wait until after the Summer Festival? "Du Wei's voice was very cold.
