As soon as Tang Shidao finished speaking, everyone was silent.
It had to be said that this statement was not without reason … Why can you decide the candidates in advance, but I can't decide the winner at home? You said that you came early to decide the winner, but I can't decide the candidates in the 'plan'? Besides, what does the strong have to do with arriving early? There was no set date for this matter to start, so what was the point of competing if you came early?
Everyone was speechless, but they knew the reason.
There was only one reason: the natural conflict between the mages in the Net and those outside!
In some planes, mages would openly announce their identities. For example, the Astral Queen, who could control a plane with one hand, was a member of the Net of Sorcerers. Even a small character like Prince Zhou was known to the people of the Great Zhou Dynasty. The name of the Net of Sorcerers was not important. It was called the Celestial World, the Heavenly Court, or the Net of Sorcerers. It didn't matter what it was called. Many people knew about it anyway.
Even if the mages did not say it, once the mages outside the Net entered the endless void, they would know about the existence of the Net of Sorcerers.
After Tang Shidao became a hunter.
After studying and studying, he found that some planes could not be kept secret. For example, planes very close to the endless void were often invaded by void beasts. These 'catastrophic' planar worlds often required the support of hunters. Otherwise, planets would be destroyed one by one, and all life would eventually be wiped out.
Therefore, the people of these planes often came into contact with void beasts and mages.
Of course, there was the biggest leak: the inverse mages.
Most inverse mages would deliberately spread the existence of the Net of Sorcerers, and they would distort it. Because the Net of Sorcerers only provided a platform, it did not uphold justice or do evil, and this neutral attitude was easy to be led astray. As long as there was a disaster and someone said that 'mages don't want to save us', the victims would immediately hate the mages and follow the inverse mages.
Sometimes, in order to fight against invasions, some mages would establish magic academies to cultivate talents.
All these reasons added together.
A large number of 'mages outside the Net' were created, and there were more and more of them.
Where did the conflict come from?
One word … jealousy!
No matter how many apprentices there were in the Net of Sorcerers, it would always pick a random life. It could be a human, or a pig. In other words, no matter how hard the mages outside the Net worked, they could not enter the Net of Sorcerers. It all depended on face. Whoever was chosen was chosen.
He calculated the difference between the two.
The mages outside the network had to rely on their own efforts, while the mages inside the network only needed to 'buy, buy, buy'.
Mages outside the net didn't have any innate spells, but mages inside the net had the innate ability to cast unlimited spells.
Sorcerers outside the network could not travel to different worlds, but sorcerers inside the network could travel freely.
Such a comparison.
The latter was naturally burning with jealousy. Usually, magic apprentices hoped that the mages in their own plane would die quickly, and then … they might be chosen … That's right, they were jealous of the mages in the network, but they also longed for such an identity.
Tang Shidao also knew.
Under normal circumstances, these people would never dare to provoke a member of the Sorcerer's Network, as the difference between the two parties was too great. The only place they could provoke was the endless void. For example, the Land of Forbidden Magic and the Land of Supreme Magic. In the former, the Mages in the Forbidden Magic Net did not dare to reveal their talents, and it was difficult for them to fight against those who had trained hard. As for the latter, the Mages outside the net would also receive a large amount of magic power support, and they would not be afraid of the cheating Mages inside the net.
As such …
Regardless of whether there was any enmity between them, this kind of jealousy caused the two sides to split into two camps. Whenever there was a chance, the mages outside the net would steal the limelight … They were like children that I wanted to 'praise'.
As for the Void Beasts, hehe, they were never sincere in making friends.
Now that there was cooperation, it was also an exchange of interests.
"Mage, it's useless if we continue to fight. Even if you win, a group of mages will pop out later and say that it's unfair, and then we won't have to go to war. Now that the army is in place, we can't waste any more time. How about this, we'll give you a spot, and you can form an army to go to war. "The old Shepherd expressed that he was thinking for everyone.
"Do you think we need charity?" Tang Shidao found it funny.
"Mage, it's most of you who lost," the old Shepherd said indifferently, implying that they were not strong enough.
"That's why I can't accept this result, and let you people who are not in the right state of mind be the leaders. We're going to fight in Nightmare Forest, not arm-wrestling. Where did you get the confidence to think that you're the strongest group? Let me ask my fellow mages, not talent, but one question: Who among us has the confidence to kill everyone on the other side? "Tang Shidao turned his head and asked his fellow mages.
The mages were slightly surprised, but then they understood what he meant.
At this moment.
The Eagle Head who had just lost the last battle stood up and said that he could. Before anyone could react, hundreds of mages stood up and expressed their confidence.
"You …" The old Shepherd felt a chill in his heart.
There was no need to ask, he knew what confidence was … It was a mage's innate spell!
The mages who stood up in front of him were silently saying: If we weren't worried about being seen, we could use our innate spells to kill everyone on our own. It's not that you're too strong, it's that we didn't try our best.
Speaking of which …
Was it really impossible to use innate spells?
Of course not!
It was just that the mages didn't feel the need to reveal their innate spells. If they were forced into a corner or their lives were in danger, they wouldn't use any of their trump cards. From the perspective of a normal person, the mages were their fathers, and the mages outside the net were just a bunch of kids … They didn't beat them to death because they were being merciful, but it wasn't that they couldn't beat them to death.
He glanced at everyone.
Tang Shidao pointed at the mages who stood up. "In Nightmare Forest, any one of you here is more useful than your army. Tell me, where did you get the confidence to lead us? I won't talk about using innate spells in Nightmare Forest. Let's talk about the alchemists. When we go to Nightmare Forest, any one of the ten leaders up there would dare to compete with the alchemists in terms of killing ability. "
He finished his question.
The alchemists raised their heads and puffed out their chests. They wanted to see who had such confidence.
The ten people on the high platform didn't move.
They didn't dare to compare.
They didn't even dare to object.
Even the void beast leaders knew that they could take down the alchemists in a one-on-one battle, but in a group … The alchemists might be able to destroy a small army with a five-man team. In the Forbidden Land, no one dared to compete with the alchemists in terms of killing ability.
"This mage …"
"We'll form our own team. There are a lot of beast soldiers here anyway. Since you think this competition is fair, we won't object. Let's do our own thing. We're still in an alliance now, so I hope you don't do anything strange. Otherwise, don't blame me for not warning you if you get killed by an unknown spell. "Tang Shidao interrupted them. He didn't want to spoil them.
Compared to the mages outside the net like Old Bottle and Mute Monk, these people were simply bad examples.
Waves without wind.
Don't even talk about mixing in the void, you might not even be able to do well in school.
The mages listened and didn't have any objections.
Tang Shidao was one of them, and he had saved face for them. They would definitely support him. Moreover, choosing a team leader like this was really messing around. If we only relied on muscle to win battles, what use would we have for brains? We'd just eat them like tofu pudding.
Seeing that all the mages had left and the situation had become so tense, the mages outside the net started to regret.
After all, everyone knew in their hearts that … these people were the ones to rely on!
After Tang Shidao and the other mages left, they didn't need to compete. They just needed to choose a team leader for each battle fortress. At this time, Tang Shidao reminded everyone, "Everyone, be careful. This matter seems to be caused by the mages outside the net, but I suspect something else. It's not over yet. When we reach the Nightmare Forest, don't be careless. "
The mages thought about it and felt that there was a problem. They secretly kept their guard up.
After they set off.
Tang Shidao invited Dragon Fang and Tiger Shadow over and handed them a small leaf. There were only five words on it: The Inverse Mage is here!
Dragon Fang and Tiger Shadow didn't say anything.
Tang Shidao said, "Some of us went astray. You know that, right?"
Dragon Fang and Tiger Shadow nodded. They thought that their mission must have been deliberately leaked by these 'traitors who were going to join the Inverse Mage'.
Tang Shidao said again, "The hunter and the hunted can sometimes be the other way around. Do you have any trustworthy friends? Go and tell them that we have other friends coming. "
Dragon Fang and Tiger Shadow scanned their surroundings. They knew that Tang Shidao didn't dare to say it out loud.
The group of people around them might be hiding intelligence agents with bad intentions. The news was leaked from the Thunder Rhino Fortress. It didn't matter if it was a mage or a Beast Soldier. In short, the people around them could be problematic. It was always right to be careful.
At this moment.
They didn't find it strange that the Owl insisted on going to war. Because they guessed that the Inverse Mage would come. At that time, it was not certain who would be the hunter and who would be the prey. The Inverse Mage was a moving treasure trove in human form. It was definitely not a dream to be able to kill a few of them and become rich overnight.
"We have some friends. Let's talk to them." Tiger Shadow and Dragon Fang also had trustworthy friends in the other armies.
Tang Shidao nodded.
Seeing the two of them leave, Tang Shidao guessed that the Inverse Mage wasn't coming for him this time. Because no one knew his identity. It was an ordinary mission, but something happened when he pulled Dragon Fang into the group. It was obvious that the Inverse Mage's target was most likely Dragon Fang.
In a land where magic was banned, an armor-making master like Dragon Fang was very useful.
Soon.
Some of the mage leaders received the news and secretly gathered their forces to prepare for a counterattack.
Would the mages be afraid of the other mages?
What a joke … The Inverse Mage had been beaten up since the first battle with the Inverse Mage. It was fine if they didn't know about the conspiracy. If they knew, they might come.
The army marched.
Once again, Tang Shidao saw the difference between the mages inside the net and the mages outside the net.
Scouting, marching, resting, patrolling, monitoring, clearing the wild, protecting, setting up camp, preparing food, all of these were completely different manifestations. The mages were very professional. For example, when it came to scouting, the hunters would definitely not steal the job of the sentries, and the sentries would definitely not steal the hunters' job of clearing the wild monsters. The shield-bearers never left the side of the alchemists or snipers. The flying beast soldiers constantly scattered and monitored the entire area.
The Rat Men set up camp.
The Tauren sharpened the blade.
The Lizard Men collected usable food.
The small dragon repelled the insects and wasps.
The whole group was like a sophisticated machine, operating step by step without a trace of chaos.
What about the mages outside the net?
One team, one group.
It was a mess.
Tang Shidao could see that it was not that they were incompetent, but that they could not gather their strength at all. The simplest example was a group of antlers would never mix with a group of werewolves. Even if the werewolves were good at scouting and the antlers were good at gathering food, they would never cooperate.
Different planes, different lives.
Not counting the removal of today's alliance, they were creatures from two different planes in the past. It would be strange if they could cooperate with each other.
The mages were different.
In the same net of mages, they would see each other all the time. If they did not see each other today, they would see each other tomorrow. Everyone was on the same side. The mages managed the beast soldiers as heroes, and the beast soldiers hugged the heroes' thighs to gain military merits. Everything had long become a fixed pattern. It could not be messed up even if they wanted to.
They were still marching.
The difference was not big.
