Immortal In The Magic World #Chapter 129 - 129 Improved Magic Potion - Read Immortal In The Magic World Chapter 129 - 129 Improved Magic Potion Online - All Page - FREEWN
Improving potions was already a walk in the park for Eli.
Normally, the first step would be to analyze the materials, but this time, Eli had no intention of doing so.
The first step for Eli was to directly extract the extraordinary essence from all the extraordinary ingredients of the potion, using the life extraction technique that Nick had left behind. Then, he began to directly mix the extraordinary essence according to the potion formula.
Very quickly, a magic potion appeared.
The test showed that the potion's effectiveness was at least 1.7 times that of the normal one.
However, it was impossible for Eli to hand this over because ordinary pharmacists didn't have this knowledge, and it was impossible for them to make potions of this level. As for handing over the life extraction knowledge, it was even more ridiculous. Eli only wanted to reverse-engineer a new potion formula from this.
Every material had its own bad properties, and not all need to be refined with life extraction.
What Eli had to do was make a new potion with its impurities removed. That way, even if he really handed everything over to Evena, it wouldn't have too much of an impact.
After all, there was a huge difference between directly adding and cutting the ingredients and slightly changing the proportion. The former would instantly attract a lot of attention, while the latter was only slightly better than normal.
And thus, it began.
…
Two months passed in the blink of an eye.
To Eli, the experiment was going smoothly.
Soon, he got rid of some of the impurities, and the effects of the potion improved slightly. However, this was far from enough, and Eli continued to work hard.
On the other side.
Due to the influence of the sun Corolla potion, few people bought the silent Crescent potion now. After all, there was a better substitute.
The income of the potion Department shifted to other potions, but it was not doing any better. This made the magic potion Department not look very good recently, and the atmosphere was very depressing.
Evena saw this, but she couldn't do anything.
There were very few warlocks who were good at potioneering. Warlocks normally focused on bloodlines. Therefore, she could only seek help from the camp leaders.
However, when she went to ask for help, she found out that even the camp leaders couldn't help her because the contract had been signed.
Naturally, nobody cared about the invisible Eli. Everyone was thinking of their own way out.
…
In the blink of an eye, another two months had passed.
In the laboratory of the arcane realm.
Eli looked at the potion that he had just made and took a deep breath.
The potion modification work was finally over.
There was a new potion on the table. It was different from the light blue color of the silent Crescent. This potion was dark blue and looked very similar.
In fact, the two potions were originally the same type, but the current potions were much more simplified than before.
This potion simplified some of the materials, such as the silent Crescent. Originally, the potion would use all parts of the plant, but Eli's new formula would only use the tender parts.
After a general examination by Eli, the effect of this potion was 1.4 times that of the previous one, and the duration had also increased from three hours to twelve hours. The only regret was that the cost had not been reduced by much.
However, Eli already felt that it was fine. After all, it was impossible for everything to be perfect.
His skill level was not at that level yet.
Holding the potion, Eli walked out of the arcane realm and prepared to head to the potion Department.
"Herman, I heard that there's a problem with the potion Department," Victor asked curiously at the door.
"It's a small problem," Eli replied with a smile.
…
Soon, Eli arrived at the potions Department.

However, before he entered, he saw three familiar pharmacists walking out with their things.
"Where are you guys going?" Eli asked, puzzled.
These people were all veterans of the potions Department. Why were they also preparing to leave today?
"Oh, Herman, I'm sorry. We don't want to leave, but the department's effectiveness is getting worse and worse. We can't do anything about it." One of the pharmacists said helplessly as he spread his hands.
"Indeed, I can't afford to live anymore. I can only go to the sun Corolla. They also need pharmacists there."
"Why don't you come with us?" The three of them advised.
"Then you guys can go." Eli shook his head. If three more left, the Department would probably only have half of its staff remaining. Who would have thought that the Department that was still popular a year ago would be reduced to this state in the blink of an eye?
"Okay, good luck then." The three of them left after just a few polite words.
Looking at the backs of the three of them, Eli shook his head.
He glanced at the empty building and walked toward Evelina's office.
…
In the room, Evena sighed.
This was the most difficult period for her since she took over the Department.
The sun Corolla potion had reduced the department's income by at least half. Excluding the department's operations and salaries, there was really almost no money.
"Lord Phil probably didn't expect this either." Evena shook her head.
If this went on, sun Corolla would take over the potion department. The ugly head of capitalism reared its head.
However, it was still a long way to go before Evena could modify a magic potion. In fact, there was not even a single first-circle pharmacist in the camp at the moment. This was the shortcomings of warlocks.
Many warlocks would subconsciously choose a stronger bloodline when they chose to advance. These bloodlines all had their own attributes. Although they would strengthen some attributes, they would also weaken some.
This made it difficult for most apprentice warlocks to focus on studying potions after they advanced, and this was without considering the effect of unstable mental strength brought by the bloodline itself.
In the past, magic potions were refined by mages, and warlocks basically wouldn't come into contact with them.
Now, this had become one of the factors that limited the development of warlocks.
Thinking of this, Evena sighed deeply again.
Bang Bang Bang!
Suddenly, there was a knock on the door.
Evena looked up in confusion. Who would come to him at this time?
"Please enter!"
…
"Minister, I'm Herman." Eli walked in.
"Herman, what's the matter? Do you want to leave too?" Asked Evena.
In fact, most of the people who knocked on the door these days came with this purpose.
"No." Eli shook his head.
"Oh, then what's the matter?" Evena was even more confused.
"I've made the improved potion," Eli replied.
"Oh, an improved magic potion… Okay. I'll approve your leave. Wait, what?!" Evena jumped up at once, her rabbit ears standing up and her slightly red eyes wide open.
She stared at Eli. This new member can improve the potion?
"Are you sure?"
"Yes."
"Are you sure?"

"Yes, I am."
After confirming it twice, Evena sat back in her chair and slowly lowered her ears. She had to see it for herself.
"Did you bring the potion?" Asked Evena.
"Minister, this is the potion." Eli took out the medicine he had prepared in advance.
Looking at the dark blue potion, Evena blinked and took it. It looked normal!
"Forget it. I'll just test it." Evena thought for a moment and rang a bell.
Soon, there was a knock on the door.
"Come in!"
An old acquaintance walked in, Rooney.
Rooney had been working when he suddenly received Evena's call and rushed over in a hurry.
"Herman." As soon as he entered, he saw Eli at the side and was a little puzzled. "What's going on?"
"Rooney, go and test this potion." Faced with Rooney's confusion, Evena did not give him much time to think and handed the potion to him.
"Alright," he said. Rooney took the potion. Although he was confused, he looked at Herman and then walked out.
The next step was to wait. Evena and Eli were silent.
Evena was anxious. If it were successful, it would be a great thing for the potion Department. If it were not, then they would have been happy for nothing.
"Let's see the results."
…
Time slowly passed.
Half an hour later.
There was a knock on the door.
"Come in!" Evena stood up.
Rooney walked in, but he was in a different state than before. He looked like he had seen a ghost, and his hand holding the potion was trembling.
Before Evena could speak, Rooney's voice trembled. "Minister, the ingredients of this potion are almost the same as the silent Crescent potion. Is this an improved potion? "
"Yes." Ivana glanced at Eli and nodded.
Eli stood silently at the side, not saying anything.
"How's the effect?" Evena asked directly.
"Minister, you must have found a master to improve it. The effect of the potion is amazing. It's 1.42% of the original effect. What's more outrageous is that the effective time has been extended by three times." Rooney panted heavily, unable to keep calm.
Upon hearing this result, Evena was also dumbfounded, and her rabbit ears stood up again.
It was true!
The potion was real!
Ivana looked at Eli. She could not believe that the member she had recruited a few months ago could actually save the potion Department.
No, she had to ask about the cost. If the cost were too high, it would be useless.
"Herman, what's the cost of this potion? " Evena looked at Eli with a serious look.
"It's about 95% of what it was before, and the steps are similar to the previous ones, but the processing of the materials may be more troublesome," Eli replied.
She closed her eyes and took a deep breath.
If that was the case, then this potion was the Savior of the pharmacy department.
When she opened her eyes again, she looked at Eli and said seriously, "if everything is true, then you will be the Vice-Minister of the potions Department in the future."
Rooney, "…"
Rooney was dumbfounded, but when he heard the words " Deputy Minister, " his body stiffened. He looked at Eli, and his mouth gradually opened wide.
It can't be. historical
Herman… You…

130 Potion
Rooney walked out with a confused look.
He couldn't imagine that it was actually Eli who had improved the potion. He was too powerful.
"Sigh, but that's good. At least the Department can be saved." Rooney shook his head, looking forward to what would happen next.
In the blink of an eye, a week had passed.
On this day.
The potion Department had requested for a new magic potion, silent moon spring, to be put up on the shelves without any warning. At first, everyone was very unwilling. After all, the sun Corolla potion had already occupied a large part of the market, which made it very difficult for them. However, they could not refuse the request of the Department, so they could only ask for a small number of potions.
Everyone thought that this was the potion department's last struggle. After all, it was not an easy task to make a demon potion that surpassed the sun Corolla in a short time.
…
Sures pharmacy.
On this day, employee John was looking at the items in the store in boredom. He glanced at the bottle of silent crescent spring potion that hadn't sold at all.
"The price is the same as the silent Crescent, but it's still a little more expensive than the sun Corolla. It doesn't even specify the effects." John shook his head.
At this moment, a person walked in from outside the door.
"What do you want to buy, Lord Chuck?" John recognized the person. He was an old customer of his store, a member of the Foreign Affairs Department.
The Foreign Affairs Department was a Department of the camp, but it did not belong entirely to the camp. It would only issue some tasks, and then the warlocks would accept and complete the tasks and get paid. They were generally free warlocks.
"One sun Corolla potion," Chuck said.
"Alright," he said. John smiled and went to get it for Chuck but returned a few minutes later with an apologetic face. "my Lord, I'm sorry. They're all sold out. You can go to the pharmacy selling the sun Corolla to buy them."
"No more?" Chuck frowned.
"I'm really sorry. My Lord, you know how popular these potions have been recently. However, the magic potion Department has also recently released a new magic potion. The price is the same as before. Do you want to try it? " John said apologetically.
"Forget it. I'll go somewhere else." Chuck shook his head and prepared to leave.
"Chuck, the mission suddenly changed. We have to rush over in half an hour. The captain has called for us to gather." Suddenly, a woman ran in from outside and said to Chuck.
"What?" Chuck let out a cry of surprise and frowned. He turned to John and said, " then give me a bottle of that new potion. Damn, can't the camp give me an exact time for the mission? "
"Yes, yes!" John immediately handed a bottle of silent crescent spring to Chuck.
John took it and put it away without even looking at it. Then, he ran out with the woman.
After leaving, John and the woman ran all the way and soon arrived at the camp gate.
There were already three to four acolytes waiting for them outside the campsite.
"Captain!" Chuck said as he walked to the leader.
"Chuck, Carly, the mission this time is a group of human-faced spiders appearing in the distant forest. We need to get rid of them and collect their poison glands." The captain said directly.
"Let's go now."
Soon, the exclusive carriage of the camp was pulled over, and the group quickly got on.
On the way, everyone was silent.
Suddenly, the captain spoke to Chuck, who was not far away, "Have you prepared your potions?"
"Yes!" Chuck said casually.
Knowing that there was no hope of advancing, many apprentices would integrate a low-level bloodline at the apprentice stage. Chuck was the same. However, the bloodline he integrated with was that of the exploding lizard, which was considered strong among the zero-circle bloodlines. The only bad thing was that if the battle were too intense, he would fall into a state of excitement and madness, and he would need a sedative potion.
"That's good!" The captain nodded when he heard the answer.
Soon, they arrived at their destination, a Grotto at the edge of a mountain range.
"Is it inside?" The captain asked.
"Yes."
"Then let's start." The captain nodded, then took out a bottle of potion from his back with his right hand, gestured for them to move away, and then threw it into the cave with a bang.
Buzzzzzz!
Immediately, a foul smell spread out, and something seemed to be coming out of the cave.
The few people who had already hidden were looking at the cave and waiting.
Very quickly, the demonic beast that they were looking for was revealed.
A human-faced Spider at the limit of zero-circle.
Its huge body was more than a meter tall, but its legs were more than two meters long. Each of them was inserted into the ground and shone with a dark light like a long knife.
"Go!" The captain made a signal with his right hand, and everyone moved at the same time.
In an instant, a group of six people attacked at the same time.
One of them took out a Wizard tool, and a large number of vines instantly crawled out from under the spider's body and wrapped around it. The other person also used a zero-circle spell, and the ground instantly caved in.
The human-faced Spider was also dumbfounded, but it instinctively tried to break free. Its sharp limbs cut off the vines and jumped to the side. historical
However, Chuck, who was lying in an ambush, threw a fireball at him.
Bang!
The explosion of flames caused the spider to let out a long hiss. At this time, the other three attacks had already arrived. A wind blade, an acid spray, and a sound wave attack.
Bang!
The spider was seriously injured.
"Everyone, keep up the good momentum and finish the battle in five minutes." The captain looked at the injured human-faced Spider and said loudly.
The battle began.
The human-faced Spider was forced to retreat under the attacks of the six people and soon retreated to the bottom of the cliff.
Just when everyone thought that the battle would go smoothly, the spider suddenly let out a long hiss. From the distant forest, huge spiders appeared one after another. At the same time, there were two demonic spiders at the middle stage of the zero circle.
"Damn it, didn't they say there was only one spider?" The captain gritted his teeth and immediately said to Chuck, "looks like it's going to be a long battle. Take the potion."
The battle was already very difficult. He could not let Chuck go out of control.
Chuck nodded and activated his bloodline power.
An explosive flame appeared in his hand. Chuck's eyes were slightly red, but he remained calm.
"There seems to be something wrong with this potion!" Normally, he would feel a special desire to fight at this time, but at this time, it didn't seem so obvious. Why was the effect of the potion better than the sun Corolla?
It was very strange.
However, now was not the time to think about this. He had to fight.
A large number of human-faced spiders had already rushed over, hissing. The injured human-faced Spider at the limit of the zero-circle did the same. It directly sprayed venom at them, and everyone dodged.
A single Spider was not scary, but a group of them would be troublesome.
Within the spider horde, everyone was fighting with all their might. Chuck was shooting out flames in all directions, burning the spiders to death one by one.
There were many spiders, and the battle continued until night.
"Damn it, Chuck!" During the battle, the captain suddenly thought of something and turned to look at Chuck. Normally, Chuck would be in a state of bloodlust at this time.
However, at this moment, Chuck still looked extremely calm.
The team leader was speechless.
The captain was surprised. What kind of medicine did Chuck take today? he had found a solution to his problem.
However, this wasn't the time to think about this. He continued to fight.
Two hours later, the battle was over.
Looking at the corpses all over the ground, Chuck smiled. It was too dangerous today.
However, when he raised his head, he realized that his team members were all looking at him with blood all over their bodies.
Chuck blinked and asked, "What?"
"Your condition." The captain spoke at this moment.
"My condition?" Chuck's brows were tightly knitted, but they immediately relaxed, and his mouth was wide open.
"F * ck!"
"there's something wrong with this medicine. There's definitely something wrong."
Chuck finally understood. It was ridiculous that he could remain calm in such a long battle. Even the sun Corolla could not do that.
"What's the name of the potion you bought?" The captain asked.
Chuck did not know either, so he took out the potion bottle from before and showed it.
"Silent crescent spring, produced by the potions department."
Looking at the words on the bottle, everyone fell silent.
"What's the price?" The captain asked again. The effect was so good, so it should be very expensive.
"Just like the silent Crescent."
Silence. Everyone was silent again.
"hurry up!" the captain suddenly said a few seconds later, " we'll return to the camp immediately after we collect the poison glands."
"What about the rest?" One of the team members looked at the other corpses.
"Why would we want that? There's a gold mine in front of us now. Let's go back immediately and buy the silent crescent spring. The price of this potion will definitely increase." The captain said excitedly.
Everyone finally understood.
Hence, after collecting the poison glands, they quickly returned to the camp.
…
The silent crescent spring potion exploded in popularity!
In just two days, everyone knew that the potion department had improved the magic potion, and the effect was very good.
Not only was its effect 1.4 times better than the previous one, but its duration was also three times longer. More importantly, the price was the same as the previous silent Crescent. It was simply a show of conscience.
As for the sun Corolla potion, although it was also good, it was still far inferior to it. Everyone was not stupid. Although it was slightly cheaper, the effect was too poor, and they became customers of the potions department again.
As for the sun Corolla potion, the sales volume suddenly dropped.
When he asked the people who had improved it, the potion department said that it was jointly improved by the potion department and that a man named Herman had played a role in it.
Herman had gained some fame from this, but his fame was greatly diminished by the operations of the potion department. The main claim to fame was taken over by the department head, Evena.
And when Eli found out about this, he also smiled.
Compared to the price paid, the benefits were still greater.
He was also a first-circle mage. Although he was currently hiding as an apprentice of the zero circle, there were not many people in the camp who could defeat him. This was why he dared to do it.
One-twentieth of the profits, and the right to look at the hidden formulas of the potion Department.
Eli felt that this was enough for him to digest for a long time.
There were still many places worth digging in this camp.
"Take it slow. There's no rush."
Report chapter Comments
While Eli was waiting patiently, some people were not calm at all.
Sun Corolla's headquarters.
"Who can tell me what this potion is?" An old man held the silent crescent spring in his right hand, his mouth twitching.
"boss, we don't know either. It seems like they suddenly developed it. We didn't have any news at all." One of the men had a conflicted expression.
"Damn, this group of people from the potion Department! There are only a few left but they actually managed to make it." The old man sighed and asked again, "How're the sales of our potions going?"
!!
"apart from the sun Corolla potion's sales being almost halved, the others have also been affected to varying degrees. And this kind of influence will slowly increase as time passes." The man sighed and replied.
The old man was a little unwilling. "Have you investigated that Herman?"
"I did, but there was no news. He looked very ordinary, but I still sent people to contact him. However, I don't know where he has been recently, and I can't find him at all." The man sighed.
The old man seemed to want to say something, but in the end, he just sighed.
At this point, there was no benefit to dealing with Eli at all. They would not do such a meaningless thing.
After half an hourglass, he spoke again, "What if we improve the sun Corolla potion?"
"It might be difficult. There are very few Pharmaceutics Masters," He shook his head.
"Then forget it. It seems like there are capable people here." The old man shook his head and said. "You can go first."
"Alright!"
…
At the same time.
In the campsite, in a room in a building at the center.
"What? the potion Department developed it themselves? " One of the men widened his eyes in disbelief.
He was Kratos, the current person in charge of the camp, a Warlock with the second ring shadow lizard bloodline. He originally wanted to bring in a Chamber of Commerce to increase the vitality of the camp, but it seemed to have backfired. The invasion had severely hit the camp's industry.
How could he tolerate this? He immediately found a first-circle Warlock who was good at potioneering and wanted to improve the potion. However, he had not made any progress so far. He did not expect that the potion department would solve the problem themselves.
"Not bad, not bad."
Kratos laughed out loud, thinking that this would save him a lot of money.
He waved his hand. "tell that pharmacist that he's not needed anymore. First circle? He's just so-so."
"Yes!" The person who made the report turned around and left.
…
"chief Evena, we really, really love the Department."
The three apprentices bent over and laughed fawningly in Evena's office.
They were the apprentices who had left without mercy.
"It's said that the benefits on the side of the sun Corolla are also not bad!" With her legs crossed and her ears perked up, Evena seemed to be in a good mood.
The three apprentices were a little speechless. As the profit of the sun corollas decreased, they began to fire people, and they were the first batch to be abandoned.
Now that they had lost their jobs, they wanted to come back.
"You can return, but there's a condition." Suddenly, Evelina said with a smile.
"Minister, please speak." Their eyes lit up. There was still hope.
"That means you won't be paid in the future," Said evena, smiling.
"Minister, stop joking." The apprentices 'mouths twitched.
"You didn't joke when you left the department hanging. " Evena's expression suddenly changed, and her rabbit ears stood up. At the same time, she exuded the aura of a first-circle mage.
The three acolytes immediately shivered, cold sweat appearing on their backs.
That's right, Evena was a first-circle warlock.
"You all have your own reasons for quitting. I don't want to hear it. If you leave, don't think about coming back. I don't care about the others, but if any Chamber of Commerce dares to take you three, I will teach them a good lesson." Evelina was angry, too. "Get lost!"
The three acolytes were extremely regretful, but they did not dare to say anything more and left quickly.
On the way out, they met Eli, who had just arrived.
The same meeting, the same place.
However, at this moment, Eli looked pretty good, while the three of them looked rather pathetic.
Eli ignored the three of them and walked straight inside.
He was here to see Minister evena.
He gently knocked on the door.
"Come in!"
Eli walked in and saw that evena had already calmed down. She glanced at her and smiled."Oh, it's Eli. Sit. You've been of great help this time. Don't worry. I won't give you less than one-twentieth of the profits."
One-twentieth was already a huge profit.
It wouldn't be much if it was just a bottle, but this would be sold through the department. He would get around a few dozen magic stones in profit a month, which was enough to make him live a good life.
"Yes." This was why Eli was there today.
"Oh, and Vice-Minister, this is your new token." Then, Evena took out a new token. It was also engraved with the logo of the potion Department, but it was made of a completely different material.
"There are also other rights that you already know. For example, checking potion formulas, working less, and you can also request materials from the Department, or a house, and so on." Evena explained everything to Eli.
Eli also listened quietly.
"yes, that's all. The reason why we don't have a Deputy department head is that there's almost nothing much to do in our Department. The leaders are usually in charge of discussing deals, so we're actually very free." After explaining, Evelina said. In fact, if she were really busy, she wouldn't have the time to gamble often.
"I'll take you to the casino today. It'll be fun." Evena smiled. She seemed to be in a good mood.
"I'm sorry, Minister. Let's forget it. I still have something to do today." historical
"Then tomorrow?"
"I'm busy tomorrow too."
"Fine, fine, fine. Forget it, I'll go by myself."
In the end, Eli still rejected evena.
After all, who knew what would happen if he followed a first-circle Warlock to gamble for no reason? Although Eli's gambling skills were not bad, it was better to forget about it.
He had just become the Deputy Minister, so it was better not to be too ostentatious.
This was from his many years of experience.
If it weren't for the fact that this opportunity was extremely rare, Eli wouldn't even have taken the initiative to improve the potion.
After bidding Evana farewell, Eli returned home.
From today onwards, his wallet would be much thicker. It was time to slowly gather information about Wizards, modify the experimental equipment, and study the devouring power.
And most importantly, it was to develop slowly.
Eli had never forgotten that strength was the foundation of everything. Without strength, if he was ever exposed, he also hoped to have the strength to protect himself.
…
Eli made his way home.
After finishing his work for the day, he continued his experiments. It was the same as when he was in the library. He looked forward to the next day.
When he came out the next day.
Eli noticed that there was an extra letter in his mailbox.
At first glance, it seemed to be from the sun corolla headquarters, so Eli opened it.
"Respected Sir Herman.
"I'm Rhine, the owner of the sun Corolla store. I would like to invite you to have a discussion at the Silver Moon restaurant at six O 'clock tonight. Please rest assured that no third person will know about this."
'So it's the person in charge of the Sun corolla Chamber of Commerce.' Eli thought for a moment and returned to the arcane realm.
It was impossible for him to go. Anyway, he had inquired about it. The person in charge was an old man at the limit of the zero circle. If he wanted to do something, Eli didn't mind cutting him off directly. It would be very easy.
In this campsite, with Eli's strength, there was still a certain level of security. At least, it was much better than accepting Rock's invitation to go to the shadow lizard Academy.
After dealing with the letter, Eli was about to leave when the door beside him opened, and Victor saw him.
"Congratulations, I heard that you have become the Vice-Minister of the potion Department," Victor said with a smile.
"Thank you," he said.
"Oh, Eli, it's like this. I need some potions. Can you give me a discount? " Victor seemed to have been waiting for a long time for Eli as he asked.
"Of course, you can." Eli nodded.
As a member of the potions Department, they could buy many potions at a discount. As the Deputy department head, Eli could even take a batch of potions at the original price. Of course, the quantity could not be too excessive.
Victor and Eli had a good relationship, so he naturally wouldn't refuse.
"Then thank you. It's not much." Victor knew his limits and handed a list to Eli with a smile.
Eli took a look.
Antidotes, ascix's shield potion, healing potion…
Most of these potions were only brought out when a warlock left the camp on a mission, so why would Victor need them? But this was Victor's business so Eli wouldn't ask too much.
Putting away the list, Eli set off towards the camp.
Soon, Eli felt the difference between being the Deputy Minister and being a normal member.
In the past, the apprentices at the entrance of the camp would not greet him when they saw him, but now, they would bow at him. When he entered the Department, some pharmacists he did not know would also take the initiative to greet him.
This was the change in status. Of course, after experiencing everything at Bryne, Eli was already very calm towards everything. He just worked as usual.
When the people from the potion Department saw that Eli didn't change too much, they heaved a sigh of relief. This was for the best.
Just like that, a peaceful life began again.
Every day, apart from work, Eli would often go to the potions Department where the wizard books were kept to check them out. He also learned many new techniques and methods, allowing his potions skills to improve once again. At least in this potions Department, Eli felt that his potions skills should be at the top.
Eli also handed the potions to Victor after purchasing them. Eli didn't ask him what he was going to do, but in the past few days, he often saw Victor wandering around the camp as if he was looking for someone.
In response, Eli only shook his head. It seemed like something had happened to Victor, or else he wouldn't be so busy normally. But he didn't care, that was Victor's own business.
A month later.
Victor went out.
132 The Ruins
It was already a month later when he saw Victor again.
…
At dusk.
Eli had just returned from the potions Department and had just reached the mountain where his house was located. Just as he was near the house, he saw Victor lying outside the door.
"I knew something must have happened." Eli's eyes widened as he quickly walked over.
!!
Victor's eyes were closed, and his lips were dark. He looked dispirited, as if he had suffered a serious injury.
After checking for a few minutes and making sure that there was nothing else on Victor's body, Eli helped him back to his house and fed him a first-Circle Healing potion.
After all, they were still friends, and a little help was nothing.
Of course, his help was limited to this.
After treating him, Eli returned to the yard to water the vines.
Half an hour later, there was a sudden cough from inside the door.
Eli turned around and saw that Victor, who was lying on the bed, had woken up.
…
"cough cough!"
Victor coughed and opened his eyes in pain. He was in a strange place.
"Where is this place?" Victor frowned.
He remembered that he was so seriously injured that he had wanted to go home, but he had fallen down in front of his house.
At this moment, Eli walked in.
"Herman." Seeing Eli, Victor naturally understood what had happened.
"Thank you. If it wasn't for you, I might have lost everything in my body." Victor felt that nothing was missing from his body, so he thanked him.
"No problem, we're friends." Eli shook his head.
"Yes, but thank you." Victor coughed twice and said with difficulty.
"Well, I haven't seen you for more than a month. It seems that you were up to something." Looking at Victor, Eli asked.
"Sigh, don't mention it." Victor sighed, but he didn't say anything.
"I should have taken more potions. I will return them to you when the time comes. Also, don't worry. My injury has nothing to do with other warlocks. I won't cause you any trouble." Victor didn't seem to want to answer and got up to leave.
"Okay, be careful." Ere nodded.
He had a lot of secrets, so how could he force others to tell him? besides, what happened to Victor had nothing to do with him.
"it's mainly because I'm also very confused. I'll tell you what happened if I have the chance." Victor got off the bed and walked towards the door.
On the other hand, Eli acted as if nothing had happened, closed the door, and entered the arcane realm.
…
Half a year passed just like that.
Many things had happened in the past six months. For example, the sales of the sun corollas had plummeted because of the silent crescent spring. Instead of leaving, they had chosen to cooperate with the potions Department and join the camp.
This was great for Eli because he earned even more from the profit.
As for Eli, he remained silent throughout the entire process. Other than Evena and Rooney, the others still thought that Eli had only played a key role in some steps of the potion's transformation. They didn't know that it was actually Eli who had transformed the potion.
On the day of the cooperation, Eli even met the owner of the sun Corolla store. The two of them shook hands in a friendly manner, and the old man even proposed to cooperate in person with Eli, but he was tactfully rejected by Eli.
"I was expecting them to send someone to kill me!" At that time, Eli thought the thought in his head was funny. historical
In fact, according to the news, it was the Department that had modified the magic potion under Evena's leadership. The owner of the Sun Corrola Chamber wouldn't attack Evena for no reason.
Therefore, although Eli was promoted to the deputy minister, he was still a nobody. However, he was already very satisfied.
There was also Rock, who had also sent a letter to Eli, telling him that he had joined the shadow lizard Warlock Academy and that he was a student of a second circle Warlock.
Eli replied to express his blessings.
After everything was over, another half a month passed.
Victor found Eli.
…
"Are you saying that you want to invite me to join your expedition?" Eli asked, puzzled.
"Yes, I am." Victor nodded and said, "Actually, I went out half a year ago because a friend of mine happened to discover the ruins of a small Dark Magus school and invited me to explore it together. In the end, due to insufficient preparation, not only did we fail, but we also suffered heavy losses.
"after half a year of rest, we are ready again, but we are short of a pharmacist, so we came to you," Victor said with a sincere face.
Hearing this, Eli frowned and asked doubtfully, "Victor, why are you involved in this?"
Victor wasn't like this before.
"My grandson is about to break through to the first circle, but he still lacks a lot of magic stones. Although most of the things in the Magus ruins are not worth much, there are still some good things that I need." Victor said with a sincere face.
"Help me, Eli." Victor knew that Eli's level of potioneering was very high.
"A ruin?" Eli thought for a moment and asked, "What's the current makeup of your expedition group?"
"There are six of us. One is a newly-promoted 1-circle Warlock, five are 0-circle apprentices, and including you, there are seven of us. Don't worry. It's going to be fine," Victor said.
"I'm sorry, I refuse." After some thought, Eli still refused.
Ruins sounded very dangerous. He still remembered the accident that happened at the last ruin. If something were to happen again this time, Eli didn't want to bear the consequences.
"I see!" Victor sighed.
"However, I can provide you with potions on the condition that I can take some of the things you get back from the ruins. Of course, I will pay for them, "Eli said.
He could choose not to participate in the ruins, but he was a little envious of the mage knowledge in the ruins.
Victor hesitated and said, "sure, but I'll have to ask the Leader first. Can you let me do that?"
"Of course, you can." Eli nodded happily.
As long as Eli didn't need to go there directly, Victor could do anything.
…
Three days later.
In a bar, Eli met Victor's leader.
It was a red-haired man who looked very old. His eyes were blue, and he exuded a slightly scorching aura. It seemed that he had just advanced not long ago and could not completely control the bloodline in his body.
"Hello, Herman."
"Hello, I'm Gino. I know you, the Vice-Minister of the potions Department." Gino looked at Eli and said with a smile.
"Let's talk inside. The others are still waiting," Victor said with a smile as he saw a good atmosphere.
He was the one who pulled Eli over, and if the cooperation was successful, he could get an extra portion.
"Alright," he said.
The two of them walked into a room at the side. There were five other people waiting inside.
Eli glanced at them, and they were indeed all apprentices.
"let's have a chat. I heard that you want to participate in it, but you don't want to go to the ruins." Gino sat at the head of the table, showing his signature smile, but Eli thought it was fake.
"Yes, but I'll provide you with all the potions you want. Also, as everyone knows, most of the things that mages have are useless to warlocks. When the time comes, you'll probably sell them, and I can buy them at market price, " Eli answered sincerely.
In fact, his goal was to be the first to purchase all their findings.
"I see!" The other apprentices were furious when they heard it at first, but after hearing what Eli was going to offer, they seemed to think that it was quite reasonable. After all, they did not lose anything, and they would even get some potions for free.
"Like this?" Gino thought about it and was tempted, but he still tried to invite him. "How about this? If you join us, I can give you a bit more of my share."
Potioneers were sometimes very important in an expedition because sometimes, situational environments like poisonous fog or abnormal conditions required a new potion to be made on the spot.
"I'm sorry, I'm just a pharmacist. I don't have the strength to even truss a chicken. I'm not suitable for exploration. However, I can give you the best batch of potions from the potion Department. These potions are enough for you to use." Eli gave an affirmative answer again.
Gino furrowed his brows. A few minutes later, he stood up and extended his hand toward Eli.
"Happy cooperation."
"Happy cooperation."
Just like that, at the cost of providing potions, Eli received the right to purchase and inspect the spoils of war from the exploration of the ruins in advance.
It looked like a loss, but Eli felt like he had profited.
He made a rough estimate. The price of the magic potion should be close to 200 low-grade magic stones according to the market price. According to the cost, it should be around 70 magic stones, which was equivalent to two months of profits from the sales of the silent crescent spring.
Therefore, Eli only spent two months 'worth of money and eliminated the risk that might be brought about by the exploration of the ruins. As for the purchase later, it was another matter.
From the perspective of Victor, Gino, and the others, it was indeed a loss for Eli, but from the perspective of an immortal, not only was there no loss but there might even be a small profit.
After saying goodbye to Gino, Eli and Victor returned.
"Herman, if anything happens to me, please help me send the money to my grandson. He's a student at the shadow lizard sorcerer Academy, and his contact number is…" Victor suddenly said.
"Relax, you'll be fine."
"No, Herman, I'm serious. I'm not young anymore. My son died many years ago, and he's the only grandson I have left. He's having trouble advancing to the first circle, so I have to help him." Victor said with a serious face. "I've already told the others. If something really happens to me, you can ask them for the things I have left for my grandson."
"Okay, okay, okay, I promise you." Eli finally agreed.
"Thank you, Herman," Victor said gratefully.
…
Half a month later.
Victor and the others set off with Eli's potions. Their target was the dark sorcerer ruins.
On the other hand, Eli watched the group of people leave.
He didn't know how things were going, but a month later, he received news that Gino and the others had returned.

133 The Return
"We're back. We're splitting things in my house. You can come over and bring enough magic stones. The address is house 386."
Looking at Gino's letter, Eli was a little happy.
"It seems like they have finished exploring the ruins, but I wonder what they have found. I don't know much about the spells that dark Magi are good at." Eli thought with interest.
From the knowledge that he had obtained from Saleen and Nick, it should be mainly elemental sorcery, which was the inheritance of the light Magi from the Mage world.
According to what he knew about this place, he should be in an area near the Clynes mountains. But in the past, this place was called the West Coast, where dark wizards gathered. That would explain the existence of the black mage ruins.
"He told me to bring more magic stones. Sounds like they've found a lot of things."
Eli checked and found that he still had more than 300 magic stones. This was the profit from the sales share. It was still a large sum.
It could only be said that Eli had underestimated the demand for the silent crescent spring for a camp.
Bringing the magic stones with him, Eli set off.
Gino was in a relatively remote residential area, far from the camp. About twenty minutes later, Eli arrived at his destination.
Behind a big tree, Eli stopped.
After all, this was Gino's territory, so it was better to be careful.
A shadow gradually appeared on the palm of Eli's hand. In the shadow, a translucent eye gradually appeared and then fled into the distance. Its target was Gino's courtyard.
The first circle spell-shadow eye.
It was a spell that used shadows as the main body and mental power as the dominant force. It could create eyes that were always hidden in the darkness, and pass on what the eyes saw to Eli.
It was also one of the uses of the shadow Dragon bloodline.
Very quickly, the shadow eye leaped along the shadows and arrived outside Gino's house. It glanced at the tall wall, then shifted its gaze to another large tree not far away.
It looked down from above.
Everything in the house and courtyard came into Eli's sight.
Gino stood in the middle, his face covered in scars. Not too far away stood two other injured apprentices. At the side of the courtyard, there were piles of items, which seemed to be their harvest.
"Where's Victor?"
There was nothing wrong with the yard, but Eli didn't see Victor.
Could something have happened?
Eli blinked, and then the shadow suddenly dispersed.
Since there were no ambushes or traps, he might as well go in. Besides, what could a newly-advanced first-circle Warlock do to him?
Walking up to Gino's door, Eli knocked on it.
"The door isn't locked!"
Eli pushed the door open and walked in.
"You guys are injured? What happened?" Eli asked in surprise when he saw this.
"You're here, Herman!" Seeing Eli's expression, Gino's face immediately fell, and he revealed a sorrowful expression. "Victor is dead."
Eli was stunned for a second. He was already surprised when he saw that Victor wasn't around. It seemed that he was really gone.
"Then are the other three apprentices dead too?" Eli asked again.
"Yes, yes!" Gino nodded and said regretfully, "there were a lot of accidents in the ruins. You don't know how dangerous it was. There was a powerful one-circle undead in the ruins. If it wasn't for Victor luring him away, we wouldn't even be able to get out. We never saw him again after that. It seems like he's dead."
"I see." Eli shook his head. He wasn't sad, but he felt a little regretful.
After experiencing everything with Bryne, life, and death no longer held much weight for Eli. Besides, he knew that there might be trouble in the ruins.
"I called you here today for two reasons. First, according to our previous contract, you have the priority to purchase the items from the dark Magi ruins. Second, Victor agreed to lure the evil spirit away for a fleshy flower." Gino opened his mouth again, stepping aside to show what was behind him. "these are all the items. Let me sort them out."
"There are a total of seven valuable items. Four of them were once wizard tools, one with One circle, and three with zero circle. The one-circle tool is a pendant that can release a mental attack, while the zero-circle tools are not worth mentioning because they will be sold.
"Then, we have another three items. One of them is ten grams of elemental crystal, which is also a wizard's item, but it's not very useful. One is a sophisticated observation instrument, and the last one is more than a hundred low-grade magic stones."
Gino took out the pile of valuable items and displayed them one by one. He left the rest where they were, and there seemed to be books or something beneath them, but he didn't seem to care.
To be honest, Eli was quite interested in them all. However, he was most interested in the first circle sorcery equipment, the elemental crystal, as well as books and instruments.
There was no need to talk about magic tools, they were definitely not bad, but elemental crystals were really good things. These things could greatly increase a Mage's elemental essence conversion speed and were one of the things that the Magi needed, but the process of making them was very complicated.
There were also books. Although he didn't know what they were, as long as they were Magi, he was interested. There were also instruments which might be helpful for his experiments.
"What do you want? Just tell me, but I'm planning to keep this first-circle magic tool. The rest are of no use to us, so I'm planning to sell them." Gino asked.
Well, warlocks could use the mage tools too.
"I'll take this crystal and the equipment. Oh, I've been studying magic potion knowledge for the past few days and have encountered a lot of difficulties. I'll imprint a copy of those books as well. Maybe they can give me some inspiration," said Eli after some thought.
Gino nodded when he heard that Eli only wanted some useless stuff.
"Yes, although we have no use for the elemental crystals, their value is not low. The market price is 10 magic stones per gram. There are also instruments. You may be able to use them, and the precision is quite good. 50 magic stones. Lastly, the books and other rubbish. You can copy them as you wish, as long as you don't spread them." Gino pondered for a moment and gave a price.
The corners of Eli's mouth twitched at Gino's words. He felt like beating someone up.
What rubbish? That was knowledge. If you were still a mage, you'd be lucky if you didn't get beaten up for this blasphemy.
"Okay, a total of 150 magic crystals." But Eli was fine. He was just a little upset.
"Well, that's it then. You can take these." Nick's eyes lit up at the sight of the magic stone, and he put it away.
Eli took away the bottle that contained the elemental crystal and the medium-sized observation equipment. Then, he took out all the books and prepared to start the branding.
Meanwhile, Gino began to distribute the items to the two apprentices. Each of them took about 40 magic stones, but if Eli's estimation was correct, the rest of the items were worth about 300 to 400 magic stones, especially the first circle magic tools.
Eli didn't say anything. Capitalists existed everywhere.
As he flipped through the books and branded them, Eli quickly learned that these books were about necromancy.
That's right. It was black magic that was mainly created from bones and spirits. It represented one of the famous wonders of the Sorcerer world, the undead calamity. It was a very special black magic system.
Eli was happy too. This was sorcery knowledge he had never come into contact with before.
In his heart, the value of this data had already surpassed everything here. Fortunately, the warlocks didn't know the good stuff even when it slapped them in the face.
Very quickly, half an hour later, Eli was done.
After packing up all the items, he looked at Gino and asked, "I've already taken care of all my things."
"Okay, then I won't send you off," Gino said generously.
"Oh, and where's Victor's flesh flower?" Eli didn't forget that this was what he promised Victor.
"Flesh flower? I can give it to you tomorrow. It's not convenient today." Gino started to shirk.
"No. Let's do it today. I have something to do tomorrow." Eli refused.
In fact, the fleshy flower was not a simple thing. With some methods, it could allow human cells to grow new limbs. It was a very precious material.
Even if it was a zero-circle magic plant, it would easily cost 70 to 80 magic stones. He could not let Gino slip away.
"Alright, then." Gino laughed awkwardly and returned to his room. He took out a small box. It wasn't inconvenient at all.
When the box was opened, there was a blood-colored plant that looked like a Lingzhi. Its aura was not the zero circle plant that Eli had expected, but the first ring.
It was no wonder Gino was reluctant to part with it. Even a first-circle Warlock could use a first-circle flesh flower. This was enough to explain its value. It was worth at least 500 low-grade magic stones.
Eli was also stunned when he saw that it was the first circle. No wonder…
However, Eli didn't have any thoughts about it. When he sold it, he would send the earnings to Victor's grandson. Since he had agreed, he didn't intend to go back on his word. historical
"Here you go," Gino closed his eyes and hesitated.
Although Victor risked his life to get it, Gino still treated it as his own. It was a few hundred magic stones. He had just advanced and needed the money.
If only…
A few seconds later, Gino seemed to recall something and handed it over to Eli.
Eli took the box, packed her things, and prepared to leave. The other two apprentices also left. At the door, the three of them moved in different directions.
In the courtyard.
Gino looked at the back of the three of them, then locked onto Eli's figure.
After hesitating for a moment, he secretly followed Eli.
He didn't want to do this, but the fleshy flower was too valuable. He didn't want to give up just like that. He had spent all his savings to level up, and he was in dire need of money.
"I'm already being very tactful. Can't you be more astute?
"How dares an apprentice doesn't respect a first circle Warlock like me? It's only right to teach him a lesson. That's right, that's it."
Gino's will gradually become firm, and his eyes gradually become fierce.
Apprentices and warlocks were two different beasts.

134 Pity
As Gino's residence was rather remote and far away from the camp, there was no one else on the way to the camp other than Eli. The other two apprentices took another route.
"Necromancy, interesting." As he walked, Eli kept in mind the new knowledge he had obtained.
After all, it only cost a little money, so it was really worth it.
But when Eli turned a corner, he suddenly stopped in his tracks, and a strange expression appeared on his face.
Through his senses, Eli knew that Gino's figure was getting closer and closer to him.
!!
"Sigh, it seems like he wants to kill and rob. Why would he go after an old man's inheritance for his grandson? " Eli sighed and walked towards the small path.
There was no doubt that the moment Gino appeared, he was already Eli's enemy. He had no other choice.
As for why he was so sure that Gino was up to no good, Eli had never seen anyone hiding while chasing after someone, so he was very clear on what he was thinking.
…
Not far away.
Gino watched as Eli's figure walked into the small path, and he revealed a sinister smile.
This was just right. The path was more hidden.
After making sure that there was no one else around, he headed straight for the small path, but very quickly, he realized that Eli's path had already deviated from the small path, and was heading into the forest.
"Have I been discovered?" Gino was puzzled. "forget it. It's better this way. It's more hidden in the forest."
In his mind, he was a first-circle Warlock, while Eli was only a zero-circle apprentice. They were not on the same level.
As he chased, he was getting closer and closer to Eli.
Soon, he stopped in front of a valley where Eli was.
He strode into the valley. Then, the moment he entered the valley, he suddenly felt runes appearing at the entrance behind him, sealing the valley in an instant. Meanwhile, Eli's figure appeared not far away.
"What is this?" Gino did not care about Eli. Instead, he looked at the runes behind him curiously.
"This can hide the fluctuations here, and not a single sound will be emitted," Eli replied not far away.
"That's even better," Gino wasn't shocked. Instead, he was overjoyed, and he revealed a sinister smile as he looked at Eli.
He was too lazy to pretend anymore.
"Give me the fleshy flower."
"No, this is Victor's inheritance for his grandson. I've already promised him." Eli shook his head, indicating his refusal.
"Then go to hell."
Gino didn't waste any time. The power of his bloodline was activated, and wisps of flames wrapped around his body. Fine hair grew out of his skin, and he charged straight at Eli.
This was the bloodline he had fused with, the One circle Lava fire Lion.
When Eli saw this, a large shadow surged out from his body, and his pupils gradually turned into golden vertical pupils. Scales that were barely visible appeared on his skin, and a cold feeling was instantly emitted.
Ever since he had fused with his bloodline, he had not fought a single battle. Gino would be his experiment.
Meanwhile, Gino, who was charging forward, had his eyes wide open. That was because he could feel a terrifying pressure from Eli, as well as an extreme sense of danger.
I can't win!
Run!
Gino didn't know why Eli had become so terrifying, and he wanted to change his direction.
But in the next second, Eli had already rushed over.
One claw appeared!
"No!"
Gino's eyes widened, and he subconsciously blocked with his right hand. The next second, he felt a huge force and an all-pervasive shadow. In just an instant, his skin began to crack, and his body was directly sent flying backward.
Bang!
Gino's figure shot into the rock wall like a cannonball, making a loud noise. However, due to the effect of the runes, the sound could not be transmitted.
When the smoke dispersed, Gino's figure was revealed.
He was covered in blood, and a few of his bones were twisted. His eyes were filled with fear.
"Who are you?" Gino struggled in pain.
This was clearly a first-circle Warlock. How could he be an apprentice? He actually couldn't tell at all, but when he saw Eli charging at him again, he knew it was too late.
Immediately, he stretched out his pocket and used the wizard weapon from before.
A mental energy attack instantly shot toward Eli.
Gino struggled to climb out of the mountain. In his impression, other than a small portion of bloodlines, most bloodlines had no resistance against mind power spells, not to mention that one look at Eli's bloodline was enough to tell that he was extremely violent.
But when he looked at Eli out of the corner of his eye, he was also stunned.
The mind power attack passed through Eli, but Eli didn't seem to be affected at all. His speed was even faster, and in the blink of an eye, he was already in front of him.
"No, don't."
Before he could beg for mercy, the attack had already arrived. In an instant, Gino's head was turned into minced meat and fell to the ground with a bang. The mind power pendant also fell to the ground, making a clear and crisp sound.
"That's all?"
In front of the corpse, Eli shook his head.
So weak!
This 1-circle warlock was too trashy, he thought he could fight for a while!
However, it was normal. Bloodline was a strange path, to begin with. When there was no difference in level, high-level bloodlines would have the power to crush low-level bloodlines.
Not to mention, it had been a long time since he became a mage, and he had been integrated with his bloodline for several years. It was reasonable for him to easily defeat a warlock who had just integrated the first circle bloodline.
As for the mind attack just now, it was fortunate that he had chosen to use Mind Shield. Otherwise, Gino might have been able to delay Eli for a while. It seemed that he had made the right choice by choosing this solidified spell.
"What a tragic death! One can't be too greedy!" Looking at Gino's dead figure, Eli shook his head. He extracted his broken spirit and burned it directly. This way, he could ensure that he would not turn into an undead.
After confirming Gino's death, Eli began to search the corpse. As it was a sudden pursuit, he did not take many things with him. He only took the first circle mage tool and more than a hundred magic stones.
After cleaning up his tracks, Eli continued to leave on the road.
As for the other ruin remains in the house, Eli thought about them and decided not to. After all, he had gotten what he wanted, and there was no need to cause trouble for those trivial matters.
…
Everything went smoothly on his way back, but when he returned to his house and saw the person lying in front of the door next to him, he was stunned again.
The corner of Eli's mouth twitched.
If he wasn't blind, the one lying in front of the door should be Victor.
It was almost the same position as last time, and he was also seriously injured.
If it weren't for the fact that the wound was different, Eli would have thought that he was dreaming about it more than half a year ago.
He didn't know what Victor had gone through to come back alive from the undead of the first circle.
However, he was still alive.
Just like the last time, after checking that there were no other traces, Eli dragged Victor into the house and performed a simple treatment.
… historical
Two days passed just like that.
So far, no one had discovered Gino's death, and Victor's injuries seemed to have recovered, but his spirit seemed to have been damaged. Eli had to feed him some magic potion.
Another two days passed.
Victor finally woke up from his sleep.
"Herman, you saved me again." Victor opened his eyes with a weak look and felt that his wounds and injuries had healed.
"It's nothing. It's just a small problem." Eli shook his head. He did not lack these magic potions.
"Also, I heard that you took the initiative to draw away the first circle undead. You're really brave! Oh? " Eli teased.
"Don't even mention it." Victor was indignant when he heard this, " Actually, it was Gino who forced me to go. He even used the fleshy flower as a threat before I reluctantly agreed.
"Hey, is Gino back? Did he bring back the fleshy flower?" Suddenly, he realized something and asked Eli.
"Here, your fleshy flower." Eli smiled and walked to another room to retrieve the wooden box of the flower and handed it to Victor. Since Victor was still alive, it was natural to return it to its original owner.
Victor took a deep breath as he looked at the fleshy flower in the box. He was immediately puzzled. "Gino actually gave this to you? I thought he'd keep this to himself."
"Well, it actually went quite well. But he is still a terrible man to force you to lure a first-circle undead away." Eli thought about how he had killed Gino with a slap, so it should be considered a success.
"Is that so?" Victor was surprised. This was different from the Gino he knew.
"Then how did you escape?" Eli changed the topic.
"uh, I was being chased by the undead. I was about to die, but I suddenly reached an exit and ran out. After that, the undead didn't chase me and ran in another direction." Victor recalled the nightmare-like memory.
"Just like that?" Eli was surprised. It seemed like Victor was very lucky.
"I'm almost done too. I'll be leaving then." Victor didn't want to trouble Eli just like last time.
"Yes."
Watching Victor leave, Eli didn't stop him.
"Eli, thank you for helping me take care of the flower." Suddenly, Victor turned around and thanked him.
"I'm just doing what I should be doing," Eli replied with a smile.
…
Three days later.
Someone suddenly knocked on Eli's door, and it was Victor.
"Eli, something's happened. Gino's dead!" Victor said in disbelief.
"Dead? How did he die?" Eli was also very surprised.
"I don't know. Last night, Gino's friends went to look for him. Not only did they not find out where Gino went, but they also found out that his soul slaves were all dead. So, he should be dead." Victor panted heavily and said happily.
"That's a pity. Did they find out who killed him? " Eli asked again.
"No, they searched the entire area and finally found some traces in the valley, but the killer cleaned the place up too cleanly and didn't have any clues at all. It's really a pity." He sighed.
"It's indeed a pity." Eli nodded in agreement.
A first-circle sorcerer had died just like that!
No one even knew who killed him. What a pity.

135 Necromancy
The news of Gino's death quickly faded away with the passing of time.
After Victor's grandson received Victor's magic stones, he successfully advanced to the first circle. Victor also returned to his lazy days, but Eli was a little busier.
Whether it was the high-precision observation instruments or the knowledge of witchcraft, they all made Eli's life full of surprises again.
…
A month later.
In the laboratory.
Eli carefully removed the crystal from the spirit Necklace, then placed it into another earring that had been carved with runes and began to assemble it.
Soon, another mage weapon was born.
The appearance of this magic tool was in the shape of an earring, with three small circles surrounding the gem in the center. This was the result of the transformation of the previous magic tool in order to avoid being discovered.
Furthermore, for this tool composition, Eli had spent a lot of money, mainly because his main focus was still potions, and alchemy might not be that outstanding.
"Let's call it the tears of the ocean." Eli looked at the earring and put it on.
After all, being able to launch a one-circle mind power attack at any time was not bad.
After finishing this, Eli turned his head to look elsewhere.
In the huge experimental equipment, the blood bamboo flower was constantly penetrated by elemental particles, revealing its specific internal structure and changes. As time passed, Eli was also waiting for the appearance of the devouring power.
Very soon, just as the blood bamboo flower was about to completely shatter, the mysterious devouring power appeared once again.
This scene was recorded by an observation device at the back of the device. It was the device that Eli had bought from Gino at a high price.
Seeing that the recording had ended, Eli walked over.
Through close observation, this time, Eli finally made a discovery.
The moment the blood bamboo flower shattered, a magical fluctuation was emitted, followed by the appearance of the devouring power, and then the scene that followed.
"Is this the external manifestation of the devouring power?" Looking at this scene, Eli smiled.
As long as he could completely simulate these fluctuations, he might be able to master this devouring power.
"However, the equipment still can't fully observe this scene." Eli shook his head. The level of these fluctuations was quite high, and it was impossible for this device to record everything. It was already impressive that it could record a little bit each time.
"It's not enough. I need more time." Eli shook his head. At this level, it might take decades of observation before he could truly sense the structure of the waves. It would probably take a long time to materialize them.
In other words, this was another long-term project.
"Let's take it slow." Eli was helpless. So be it. It was just one of his experiments anyway, and it didn't matter.
After fiddling with the experiment for a while, Eli walked out of the laboratory and went to the laboratory next door.
Compared to the room next door, this place was very simple. Basically, there were only experimental materials.
In the corner, there was a huge white skeleton that took up almost half of the room. It was the skeleton left behind by the shadow Dragon Chris.
However, even though it was just a skeleton, one could still feel a lot of shadow power remaining on it. Eli was also reluctant to part with it, so he did not throw it away.
He had just learned necromancy recently, so he wanted to try it out.
But before he could take more than a few steps, he stopped and patted his head.
"This a four-circle shadow dragon! Do I really want to experiment with it? Wouldn't it be a waste?" Shaking his head, he turned around and left. It was better for him to go and buy some corpses of one-circle beasts.
Purchasing the corpses was much easier than Eli had imagined.
If a Warlock had fused their bloodline while they were still alive, then their corpse would still have a certain value after death. Some of the value could be squeezed out, so this market existed.
After spending dozens of magic stones, Eli bought Nine Zero circle apprentices and a first circle apprentice's corpse.
A month later.
In an empty area of the secret realm.
Eli stood at the side, and not far away were a dozen or so corpses.
With a wave of his right hand, a spell model slowly appeared in his mind. His thin gossamer-like mental power instantly pierced a dozen corpses and wrapped around them tightly.
The muscles on the surface of the corpse also began to dissolve slowly, and runes slowly appeared on the pale white bones. Finally, they turned into a simple but not crude spell formation in the skull.
This was the first circle undead spell-undead creation.
With the appearance of the spell formation.
Whoosh!
The next second, a mysterious flame appeared in the heads of these skeletons. Undead fire. This was the flame that would form when the undead was formed.
With the appearance of the undead fire, all the skeletons crawled up from the ground with clicking sounds and then instinctively looked towards Eli, kneeling down one after another, offering their loyalty.
Eli made them, so they should belong to Eli.
"Not bad." Looking at the skeleton in front of him, a smile appeared on his face.
It seemed that his talent in dark magic was not bad, and he succeeded on his first try.
Furthermore, unlike the human's deception, the undead was much simpler. When they announced their allegiance, it meant that they would be loyal forever. Furthermore, Eli did not have to worry about betrayal. After all, their soul flames were all in the hands of Eli. As long as he wanted to, he could crush their undead flames at any time.
However, they were all zero-circle undead, so their combat power was quite average, and Eli had other arrangements for them.
Soon, under Eli's instructions, the undead picked up their tools and began to help Eli tidy up the arcane realm, water the magical plants, and feed the magical beasts he was raising.
Looking at this scene, Eli revealed a satisfied smile.
This was the correct way to use the undead! Although the undead's intelligence wasn't that high, and there would be some minor damage in the process, compared to the whole, the benefits were definitely greater than the disadvantages, and it was even more so for Eli.
The arcane realm was so huge, and it was very troublesome for Eli to do so many things every day. Now that there were undead helping him deal with the mundane chores, he would have more time to do other things in the future.
It was unknown if the brutal dark mages of the past would return from the multiverse and knock Eli's head off if they found out about this.
Of course, skeleton control was only one part of necromancy. The mage inheritance that Eli had obtained was mainly below the third circle. In such a short time, he had only studied the surface.
After all, the legendary necromancers were also war machines among the dark mages. They were not that simple.
Although Eli did not go to explore the ruins this time, he had become the biggest winner.
…
Another month had passed.
"Oh? " Eli received another interesting piece of news.
In an area tens of kilometers away from the camp, they had found a spirit. At first, the camp sent people to capture the spirit, but they found out that it was a first-circle spirit, and the capture plan failed.
After the failure, the camp even joined forces to capture the spirit together. Even Kratos, the person in charge of the camp, sent people out to capture the spirit. But unfortunately, when they got there, the spirit had already left.
And from Victor, Eli knew that this spirit was most likely the same undead who almost killed Victor.
This made Eli very interested.
…
At the same time.
In the deep mountains.
An undead was hiding there.
"Hahahaha, I actually survived." The undead Nicholas was ecstatic.
He used to be a third-circle sorcerer, but due to some mishaps, he didn't get to Sky Castle in time and was left here.
It was probably because of this that he abandoned his physical body and turned himself into undead in order to survive. In the end, he had no choice but to seal himself.
Some time ago, someone had broken into the ruins, causing him to wake up again.
However, the long passage of time had already caused his strength to deteriorate to the first circle.
"I survived. However, my soul power is still too weak. I'll have to find a place to slowly recover first. I'll show myself when I've recovered to the second circle.
"And the core of my soul is also in that mage tool. I'm missing that part, so I can't reach the fourth circle. I'll take it back when I get to the second circle. It'll take me about 30 years."
He had heard that those people were from the same wizard camp. The warlock camps on the West Coast were at most, in the second circle. He would go there and kill some souls.
"Hehe, this area will be the nourishment for my advancement."
The undead glanced around and then entered the deep mountains. He was not strong enough now and still needed to develop.
…
Twenty years later.
To Eli, twenty years was just a short process.
Every day, he would clock into work at the camp and then study necromancy. At this time, his undead horde had increased by a few hundred, and he had collected more than a dozen first-circle warlocks, all of whom had been refined into undead.
Meanwhile, the blood bamboo flower's fluctuations were also rapidly developing. At this moment, it had already developed to about two-thirds of its original size, which made Eli very happy.
Of course, this was a very normal daily life. The only thing that made him emotional was that Victor was dead.
Victor suffered irreversible damage in the ruins last time, which damaged his spiritual power to a certain extent and aged him. In the end, he died a few days later.
After Victor's death, Eli personally buried him.
Then, he met Victor's grandson, a first-circle wizard.
And from him, Eli got news about Rock.
He had died three years ago.
It was very ridiculous. He died because he was too much of a genius. Eight years after he broke through to One circle, he had a new encounter and was about to break through to two circle in the blink of an eye.
One night, someone found his body in his room. Rock had caught too much jealousy and ire from the others.
Rock was a true genius. He was in his thirties and was about to break through to the second circle. Such talent dwarfed Eli easily, but he did not even live as long as Eli.
So what if he was a genius? He would die if he were not careful. historical
Eli stayed in the camp every day and wasn't threatened at all.
"As expected, it's not good to be in the limelight!" Eli sighed.

Victor's death had no effect on Eli.
A month later.
"Good Morning, Deputy Minister Herman!"
As soon as he stepped out of the door in the morning, he heard a crisp greeting.
He turned around and saw an unfamiliar woman standing outside Victor's yard. She was the new tenant of Victor's house, Tijie.
She was a zero circle sorceress with long red hair. She wore a sexy leather jacket that wrapped around her chest and a pair of leather pants that outlined her long legs.
"Good morning," Eli nodded calmly and turned to leave.
It was better to stay away from such a beautiful woman. This woman had only moved in a few days ago, but she kept making Eli feel a little strange. Eli didn't know where this feeling came from, but he still decided to walk further away.
Looking at the back of the man who left in a hurry, the corner of Tijie's mouth twitched. She touched her face and started to doubt her own charm.
According to the information, this Vice President of the potions Department should frequently go to the brothels and should be very lecherous. She had specially dressed up so beautifully in order to seduce Eli, but looking at it now, it was a little of a failure!
"Forget it. I'll try to get close to Herman first. At the same time, I'll get closer to the other targets." Tijie shook her head. This time, someone had contacted her organization, so she came here first to gather information.
She pursed her lips, then turned around and walked into the room.
Just as she entered the room, a black eye in the shadow not far away also disappeared like a bubble.
"There's a problem indeed."
On the other side, Eli, who had already walked a few kilometers, frowned.
Since he felt that something was amiss, it was naturally impossible for him not to investigate this factor clearly. Therefore, Eli had already set up various detection methods around Tijie's house.
After she left, tijie's expression was one of deep thought and profoundness, which was hard for Eli to find normal.
"looks like I'll have to pay more attention to this neighbor for a while."
Shaking his head, Eli continued walking towards the camp.
Maintaining the shadow eye from a few kilometers away was not a problem for him now. He had made great progress compared to 20 years ago. His mental power had reached 58, and his elemental conversion had reached 50% with the help of the elemental crystals.
Of course, this progress was not considered fast, especially when compared to a top-notch genius like Rock. However, Eli was very satisfied. His own aptitude was simply too poor, and he could only rely on time to slowly improve.
This was even after he had used a middle-grade meditation technique. Otherwise, it would have been even slower.
…
Ten minutes later, Eli arrived at the potions Department.
At the door, Eli ran into Evena.
"Minister Evena."
In the past 20 years,EIvana's appearance hadn't changed much. She still looked beautiful.
"It's Herman!" Looking at Eli, Evena smiled. Anyone who had an employee like Eli would be very happy.
Furthermore, at this point, Eli had already gained the approval of both Evena and the camp.
Time was the best way to test loyalty.
"Oh, right, Herman, this is the bloodline that you bought some time ago through our internal channels." As if remembering something, she took out a bottle of blood from her pocket.
The blood was green with a hint of red, and it exuded a ring of energy.
This was the first circle bloodline that Eli had bought some time ago. It was called the bramble Tree demon, a plant-type magic beast.
It was mainly because he considered that as an apprentice, Eli wasn't young anymore, and it would be impolite for him to still be moving in the same spot, so he decided to " advance " to a first circle Warlock.
After advancing, Eli would also be able to come into contact with higher circles and items in the camp. In his current circle, the things he could obtain were really limited, so it was time for him to move up.
"Yes, thank you, Minister." Looking at the blood, Eli accepted it with a smile.
He had worked hard for more than 20 years.
"Yes, the camp is currently short of people. When you become a first-circle Warlock, the battalion commander will definitely arrange a higher position for you. By then, there will be other benefits. It's a pity that the positions of the Minister are full, or you could be the Minister." Said Evena, pleased.
With Eli's assistance, she had more free time.
"Yes, yes, I will definitely not let down the camp's hopes."
"Eell, that's all I have to say. Hey, I suddenly remembered the gambling trick you told me last time. It's really useful. Can you teach me a few more tricks? "
After dealing with this matter, evena suddenly came over and said with a smile.
At the mention of this, Eli felt a little regretful.
Once, he and Rooney were discussing some of the casino's techniques, and they happened to bump into evena. As a result, the Minister actually joined in excitedly, and later often asked Eli some questions.
"no, no. Minister Evena is already very good. I need to go." Eli found an excuse and quickly left.
Evena's ears were standing up in anger, but she still said loudly, "I wish you success in merging with the bloodline!"
"Thank you, Minister." An echo was heard from afar.
…
The bloodline was already in his hands, and Eli was already thinking about when he should 'fuse' with the bloodline.
In fact, it was impossible for him to integrate with it. He already had the shadow dragon's bloodline. He would only use this bloodline as a disguise. It would give him additional bloodline skills.
This secondary bloodline integration would take some time, but not long.
Besides, what Eli was more concerned about was who his " beautiful neighbor " was. What was her purpose?
He would slowly smoke her out.
…
Another half a month passed.
After some investigation, Eli did find something wrong with his female neighbor.
First of all, whenever Eli came out, she would deliberately try to get close to him, but every time he left, she would head to other places in the camp to get to know all kinds of people.
Secondly, although this woman had fused with her bloodline, the strength of her bloodline was not high. It was obvious that she had not trained her bloodline much, which was not in line with the habits of ordinary warlocks.
Lastly, there were times when Eli would sense a mysterious spiritual wave next door. Although it was fleeting, Eli guessed that it was some kind of communication tool, probably to contact the outside world. Most importantly, this kind of spiritual wave was usually used by mages.
All in all, there was something wrong with his female neighbor, and there was a certain possibility that she was a mage in disguise.
A mage-apprentice had sneaked into the warlock's camp.
This could affect the stability of the camp, and in this regard, Eli was also very conflicted about what he should do.
But after some thought, Eli decided to approach it the most direct way.
And so, on a pitch-black night, Eli sneaked into Tijie's house.
… historical
At night.
Tijie was lying on the bed in a thin chiffon dress. Her beautiful figure could be seen through the moonlight. Her eyes were closed as she was resting.
Suddenly.
"Whoosh!!!"
A huge wave of mental power suppressed her. Tijie also sensed this and opened her eyes. However, her body was completely suppressed, and a few vines were tightly wrapped around her.
She wanted to break free, but she couldn't.
What made her even more fearful was she did not even know what had happened, but due to the immense mental suppression, she found it difficult to breathe and could not make a sound at all.
"Tell me, what is a mage apprentice doing in a Warlock's camp?"
As soon as the voice was heard, Tijie's body was pulled up by the vines, and a man in a Black wizard's robe was sitting on a stool not far away.
This scene was too embarrassing, and her face turned red.
She knew that she had been exposed, but she couldn't figure out how she had been discovered. She clearly hadn't done anything out of line. All she did was try to get close to Eli, but there shouldn't be anything wrong with that.
"Sir, I don't understand what you're saying. I'm just a little Warlock. If I've offended you, please spare me." Tijie said quickly as she felt the suppression of her mental power disappear.
"Hmph!"
After a cold snort, the vines wrapped around her body and gradually increased their strength as though they were trying to strangle her to death.
Tijie found it hard to breathe. At the same time, her body was cut by the vines. The blood that flowed out was absorbed by the vines. Soon, Tijie's dress was dyed red.
"I've seen everything you've done in the camp. Tell me, which mage organization are you from?" Eli asked calmly again.
On the other hand, Tijie, who was enduring the pain, widened her eyes.
She slowly raised her head and looked at Eli. At this moment, Eli also slowly stood up, took off his wizard robe, and said, "I'm Roland, a first-circle mage. I'm living here temporarily."
A mage?
Tijie blinked her eyes.
But in the next second, he saw a skeleton walk out from the shadows. The burning undead flames illuminated Eli's face slightly. It was a very handsome young man.
A skeleton.
And a Necromancer?
Looking at this scene, Tijie heaved a sigh of relief. As long as he was not from the Warlock camp, there was still hope for her to survive.
To her knowledge, no warlock knew necromancy. The man in front of her was definitely an official mage, and only an official mage could easily suppress her with mental strength.
The only thing that made her uneasy was that the man in front of her was a little rough with his methods, but she could understand it. After all, he was a Necromancer.
"my Lord, I am a mage from the irises' mage camp. My real name is Tijie. I can tell you whatever you want to know. Can you let me go first?" Tijie spoke slowly. She knew that her fate was in Roland's control.
Seeing that the situation was gradually stabilizing, Eli nodded and placed Tijie down before throwing a bottle of potion over.
"This is a healing potion." yes, "Eli said.
"Yes." Tijie nodded but did not consume it.
"Tell me. What is your purpose in coming here?"
Seeing that Tijie had calmed down, Eli also asked the question that he was curious about.
Report chapter Comments
In the dark room.
Eli sat on the chair while Tijie stood on the ground in her red chiffon dress.
"I'm a zero circle mage apprentice. I was sent here to collect as much information as possible, including where there are high-value items, the group of warlocks, how many high-level warlocks there are, and so on. We might organize a surprise attack later." Tijie explained the matter in a concise manner.
Eli was speechless. He was told that mages were dying out. How did they even dare to attack the Warlock's camp?
"Is the mage camp you belong to very strong?" Eli asked curiously.
"We have about three official mages and about 20 apprentices," Tijie replied.
"You're going to attack the Warlock's camp just like that?" Eli looked as if he had seen a ghost. Putting everything else aside, there were at least several two-circle warlocks in the Warlock camp, and there were at least ten people in the first circle. As for apprentices, there were about a hundred of them.
"With such a huge difference in strength, you're telling me you want to attack the camp?"
"Er, we're not attacking. Our goal is to destroy and plunder some resources," Tijie replied.
Destroying and plundering resources?
That would indeed be easier, but it shouldn't be enough.
As if reading Eli's mind, Tijie added, " we are not the main force. We are only responsible for destroying and pillaging the camp. The main force is another force."
"Oh!"
This makes sense!
"Then who is the main force?"
"I don't know about that. I only know that it seems to be another Warlock's force." Tijie took out a bottle of her magic potion and consumed it. Her wounds healed bit by bit.
Eli nodded.
This was really bad. Initially, he thought that he had only discovered a spy, but he did not expect to suddenly find out about such a conspiracy. Eli was a little caught off guard.
"So, should I report this to the camp, or should I just pretend that nothing happened?" Eli frowned.
If he reported it now, he would be able to ensure that he would be able to eliminate the danger he was in. However, how to explain it was another problem. Even if he reported it secretly, there was a risk of being discovered.
Therefore, reporting it might not be a good idea, so he could only hide it.
He would hide everything he knew and leave the place temporarily. He would return after everything was over. It just so happened that Eli could use the excuse of a breakthrough to leave the camp temporarily and return after everything was over.
After figuring this out, Eli relaxed a lot and continued asking, "When do you guys plan to start the invasion?"
"I don't know. We've only just begun to infiltrate and search. We're only just starting preparations. We're controlled by the main force. Whenever they say they'll take action, we'll take action. It may be half a month, or it may be a year or two years later. It all depends on when they want it. I don't think it'll be more than two years." Tijie thought for a while and answered seriously.
"Yes, yes." Eli understood. 'I need to leave tomorrow. The camp is getting dangerous.'
When everything was settled, Eli would return. After all, there was a high chance that the camp would still exist, and he might even be valued because of the loss of personnel.
Three birds with one stone.
And how to leave, Eli had an idea too.
However, before that, he had to solve his problem with Tijie.
Looking at the young apprentice, Eli gave her a kind smile and asked, "Do you want to live or die!"
There was silence.
…
The next day.
Eli came to the hall early in the morning.
"Deputy Minister Herman, what brings you here today? " Alice said with a smile. Unlike the mortal world, beauty potions in the Warlock world were actually quite common and easy to make, so most of the time, you would only see one face over the decades.
"I've been preparing to make a breakthrough recently, but I'm still lacking material and money. So, I'm preparing to take on a mission to earn some money," Eli replied.
Eli was planning to take on a mission and leave this place.
"Do you lack money too, Sir Herman? but I heard that you're quite carefree in the camp!" Alice joked with a smile.
"It's because I'm too free and easy that I don't have money," Eli replied with a smile.
Alice couldn't say anything, so she took out a photostone.
A clear image was projected. It was a list of missions.
"Do you have any requirements for the mission?" Alice asked.
"Well, it's best if the pay is high and it takes me further away from the camp," Eli stated his condition.
"I see!" Alice nodded and quickly selected a mission. "Master Herman, what do you think of this? You can stay in the palace of the kingdom of Corina for five years and maintain the peace of the kingdom during this period. The reward is 200 low-grade magic stones, but since you are a late-stage apprentice, you should be able to get an additional 50 magic stones." Alice said as she looked at a mission and introduced it to Eli.
Five years?
Eli was a little hesitant. Five years was a little too long!
After all, this invasion would probably end in three years at most.
However, this was indeed a very suitable mission for him.
"Sir, if you are worried about safety, there is no need. There is still a first-circle warlock in the kingdom. You don't need to do much," Alice explained.
"Alright, I'll take this one then!" Eli nodded.
Soon, Alice handed the mission to Eli.
After taking the mission, Eli went to look for Evena.
"Minister, I've accepted a mission. I might need some time away."
Evena nodded to show she understood.
Accepting missions was an individual's choice, and the ministers had no right to interfere.
Besides, it was just a mission, and it was probably a short one. He would be back soon.
She had never thought that Eli would take on a long-term mission.
…
Just like this.
It was early in the morning when Eli knew that the camp might be in danger for some time. In the same afternoon, Eli was already packing his things and preparing to leave.
Outside Tijie's door, Tijie looked at Eli.
He was one of her targets. He had actually left just like that. What a waste of her efforts.
Sighing, she returned to her room and sent a new message to a certain Soul brand.
"Master, the Vice-Minister of the camp's potions Department, Herman, is preparing to leave the camp. He seems to be out on a long-term mission. Everything is normal. We don't know when he will return!"
Meanwhile, on the other side, Eli received the message and smiled playfully.
'It feels so different to hear about me from someone else.'
Last night, in order to get the specific information and the location of the future wizard camp, Eli had also planted a soul brand in Tijie and made her his subordinate.
However, she thought that her master was Roland. She had no idea that Roland was Eli.
After making sure that everything was ready, Eli said to his newly hired Grand Knight coachman. "Let's go."
Just like that, the carriage quickly left the warlock camp and set off all the way to the kingdom of Corina.
…
Three days later.
Eli had arrived at the capital of the kingdom of Corina, the city of Corina.
Eli also made his way to the palace.
In the palace, Eli met the Queen directly.
"Greetings, Your Majesty." Eli greeted respectfully.
"There's no need to be so formal." The Queen smiled.
She was about 50 years old and had an elegant appearance. She wore a red dress and luxurious jewelry. From her aura, she was actually an apprentice, or perhaps she was an apprentice in the past.
It was different from the situation in Bryne where there were no traces of the mages. Because Corina was closer to the former mage forces, there were still families of mages here. Of course, most mage families were now families of warlocks. The royal family of Corina was once a mage family, and Rock was the queen's son.
"Just tell me what I need to do, my queen," Eli asked directly, not wanting to waste any time.
"Your mission is to protect Ross, Rock's son." The Queen thought for a moment and said.
Eli, "…"
Rock actually had a son?
Seeing Eli's expression, the Queen also asked in confusion, "Do you know rock?"
"Rock and I used to be friends," Eli said without denying it.
"Well, that's even better. Rock's son is called Ross. He's about six years old, and he might have inherited Rock's talent. He's also very talented, but he's still young. He's currently studying with the royal family. All you have to do is to protect him for the next five years. After that, he'll be sent to a mage Academy." The Queen nodded and said.
"Alright," Eli nodded.
Although he had some doubts, he didn't intend to ask. Anyway, some things would slowly come to light.
"Yes, someone will take you to see him later. I'll take my leave first." historical
Ten minutes after the Queen left, someone came over and brought Eli to a small castle in the palace. There, he saw Rock's son, a little one who was always full of pride.
"Are you the one sent to protect me?" Ross's face was chubby like a baby's, and he looked up at Eli.
"yes, I'll protect your safety from now on." Eli nodded.
"Yes."
The little boy was still very sensible. He chatted a little with Eli in a silly manner and then went to play the game of Knight and Prince. Eli smiled and was led to a room in the castle.
"My Lord, this is your room." A servant opened a room.
Eli walked in and saw that it was a very luxurious room. After all, he was still a 'Level 3 acolyte', so it was impossible for the reception to be too bad. He was a protector, not a nanny.
"If Milord needs anything, you can tell us at any time."
"Alright," he said.
After chasing away the maidservant, Eli entered the room and inspected the entire room from top to bottom. He then set up a few spell formations before he started to heave a sigh of relief.
He had finally left the camp.
Although he didn't know when the camp would be attacked, he decided to stay away for now.
It would be best if the camp still existed after that. However, if the camp were wiped out, Eli wouldn't cry over it. He'd just start over somewhere else.
Report chapter Comments
A year passed in the blink of an eye.
Eli usually stayed in the castle and rarely went out.
As for Ross, Eli had a clear understanding of him now. It turned out that Ross was born two years before Rock was killed. Rock had sex with an apprentice, and Ross was sent back from the academy after he was born.
When Ross was first sent back, he was naturally very welcomed. After all, his father was already a first-circle Warlock and was about to advance to the second circle.
However, with Rock's death, the situation suddenly changed. Ross's status plummeted, and because Rock had offended too many people, Rock's direct family was greatly affected. Ross was also discriminated against in the family.
The funny thing was that the world was really unpredictable. Last year, the royal family had tested the talent of every child in the family, and Ross was valued again. The results showed that he was extremely talented, even more so than Rock.
That was why Ross's current status was not bad.
During the day, he would go to his grandfather, who was an official Warlock, to learn knowledge. He would only return to the castle at night. What Eli had to do was to ensure his safety during this time. historical
Of course, this task was not just limited to Eli alone. There were two other apprentices in this Castle who shared this task, so Eli was usually quite relaxed.
On the other hand, Eli finally received news from Tijie.
"Master, it's been a month since we last gathered information. This time, we have a very deep understanding of this place. I estimate that we will definitely take action within a year!"
It was a message from Tijie.
As Eli's eyes and ears, she kept sending him messages.
For a full year, she had reported information to him twice a month on average. This allowed him to learn a lot of information, such as where some of the resources in the camp were placed and how some of them were allocated. Of course, there were also some interesting things, such as battalion commander Kratos' preference for fox girls, and Evena had been scolding Eli every day recently. It was only after he left that she realized that she had a lot more work to do.
All in all, this made Eli look at the camp from a different perspective, and it was very interesting.
However, it seemed that a battle was about to break out. He just didn't know what would happen.
At this moment, there was a knock on the door.
"Come in."
A small head suddenly popped out from the crack of the door. Its black eyes were spinning, and when it saw Eli, the eyes lit up.
Ross ran in with a smile and said, "Grandpa Herman, can I ask you a question about potioneering?"
Children were always full of innocence and spontaneity. Ever since he discovered that Eli's potion was very powerful, he would often come to ask some questions. On the one hand, Eli was on a mission, and on the other hand, he had no reason to refuse a six or seven-year-old child, so he would often answer.
"Of course, you can." Eli nodded.
"Thank you, Grandpa. I want to know why the Chris runes grass can't be extracted." His small head was filled with questions.
"That's because the extraordinary characteristics of this flower, to a certain extent, are not the plant itself but the special material on the surface of its body." He answered the question easily.
"I see. Thank you, Grandpa!" Ross nodded, not fully understanding, and then ran out.
"Ah, what an innocent child!" Looking at his back, Eli smiled, but he was a little suspicious. This question didn't seem to be something Ross should be asking at this stage…
"I see!"
On the other side, an old man heard Ross' answer and came to a sudden realization.
He looked very old, and his skin seemed to be stuck to his bones, but he exuded a strong bloodline power. He was the one-circle Shadow Bone lizard Warlock of the Corona family, Eiffel.
He had only recently found out that Herman was the Vice President of the potions Department. Coincidentally, he had been studying potions recently, so he had a lot of questions.
However, it would be too embarrassing to ask him directly, so he could only do this through his grandson.
"Grandpa, why don't you ask him yourself?" At this time, Ross' tender voice sounded.
"Don't ask too much, kid. Don't tell your mother about this." Eiffel coughed twice. He couldn't say that he was too embarrassed.
However, he couldn't be blamed. It was mainly because Eli was too strong as a pharmacologist. He even felt that the second-circle pharmacologist he had seen in the Academy was far inferior to Eli, which surprised him.
"Alright, I'll go look for my mother." Ross chuckled, turned around, and ran out of the palace.
Although he had been given the cold shoulder, how could a child understand what had happened?
…
And Eli didn't care much.
To him, this was just a long paid vacation.
On the other hand, as time passed, Eli gradually found out who was working against the warlock camp.
It was another Warlock force, the blood Alliance.
It was a force composed of more than a dozen bloodline Warlock clans, and its overall size was much larger than the shadow lizard warlock Academy. This time, it was the Frostwolf clan that was making a move.
"What is this? A test for the shadow lizard?" Eli frowned.
Eli didn't know much about the Blood Alliance, and he wasn't too clear about their goal.
But that wasn't important as long as Eli didn't get involved. As for the truth of the matter, he didn't know for now, but it shouldn't be a secret anymore in ten or twenty years.
Now, it all depended on when it would explode.
…
A year later.
The attack erupted.
The sudden attack stunned the entire camp.
The shadow lizard Warlock Academy's subordinate camp was suddenly attacked by a large wave of unknown warlocks, and the entire camp suddenly fell into chaos.
In the camp.
Kratos was dumbfounded. Standing on the highest tower in the camp, he could feel the enemies that suddenly appeared around the camp. They were of great numbers and of high quality.
And they seemed to have a purpose, attacking the weak areas of the camp.
"Damn it, a bunch of trash." Looking at the destroyed campsite, the corners of Kratos 'mouth twitched, and a large shadow appeared outside his body. He pounced on a first-circle sorcerer who had just entered not far away.
In just an instant, he had already arrived around the first circle sorcerer, and a shadow instantly drowned him.
Just as he was about to attack the other warlocks, two figures appeared not far away. They were both wearing gray wizard robes with hoods.
Two two-ring warlocks?
Kratos sensed the aura and was stunned.
"Kratos, we want to talk to you." One of them took off his mask, revealing the silver-gray wolf mask underneath.
"I have nothing to talk about with you." Kratos exploded with anger, and his eyes were bloodshot.
"What if it's with your sister?"
Hearing the calm voice, Kratos's face changed instantly.
"My sister?" Kratos was stunned. If there was one regret in his life, it would be his sister whom he once loved. Unfortunately, they were separated by accident, and he was the only one left.
"That's impossible. I saw her fall into the whirlpool in the endless sea with my own eyes," Kratos shook his head in disbelief.
The endless sea was the sea next to the West Coast. There were many extraordinary monsters and dangers everywhere. They had separated during an island exploration.
"She's still alive, and we have evidence that we know where she is." The man spoke again.
"Really?" Kratos suddenly became a little uncertain.
"Yes, we know that you were once a student of the shadow lizard sorcerer Academy's Dean. We would like to talk to you about this Academy."
"Alright, I hope you guys aren't lying to me." Kratos frowned and said while gritting his teeth.
Thus, the three of them began to fight. However, the more they fought, the further they went and left the camp.
As for the camp, people were left to their own devices.
Suddenly, a loud bang came from somewhere in the camp. All the warlocks were stunned, but then there were more explosions. This caught them a little unprepared, and the situation became even more chaotic.
The killing continued, and countless warlocks died in this battle.
…
On the other side, Eli also sighed after receiving the news.
Fortunately, he had left the camp. Otherwise, it would have been quite troublesome if he had really gotten involved in the chaotic battle.
According to Tijie, a lot of apprentices died. Even five or six first-circle warlocks had died.
It was too dangerous.
The surprise attack only lasted for four hours.
Four hours later, Kratos returned and led the people in the camp to organize a counterattack. They quickly ended the riot and foiled the conspiracy of the unknown forces.
As for what happened in the few hours when Kratos disappeared, no one knew.
However, although the raid had ended, the pursuit of the escapees and the management of the camp had become major problems. Therefore, the camp was even more chaotic than during the raid.
However, under Kratos' leadership, everything was getting better.
…
There were many things to be done in the camp, but Eli did not return to the camp.
The main thing was that he was still in the middle of a mission, so this was more or less inappropriate. Moreover, he wanted to wait until everything was stable before going back.
The attack on the camp was much bigger than what Eli had imagined, and the shadow warlock Academy was immediately enraged. After all, this was a direct taunt, and no force could tolerate it.
As such, they sent out a large number of warlocks to investigate the matter, and even Effiel of the Corina family was transferred away to participate in the investigation. No one knew how many people would be in trouble.
However, Kratos, one of the central figures in this matter, wasn't affected much.
This made Eli very curious about this guy's background. Such a big thing had happened, yet he was completely fine.
Just as Eli thought that everything would end smoothly …
It was the fifth day of the shadow lizard Warlock Academy's investigation.
At night.
In the palace, Eli suddenly opened his eyes.
"Someone's coming." Eli frowned. The dozens of eyes he had set up in advance told him that a mysterious force had entered the palace, and there were quite a number of people.
The target was the palace.

139 Numbers
"Heinz, are you sure that old bastard Eiffel isn't here?"
In the shadows outside the palace, more than a dozen people looked at a man with a gloomy face in the middle and asked in a low voice.
"Yes, I used some tricks to draw him to another area. Otherwise, even though we're four one-circle warlocks, he's still a one-circle Ultimate Warlock. If he really went all out, there's no guarantee that we would be able to survive this ordeal. I'm not that stupid." Heinz grinned.
"That's good!"
Upon hearing this, everyone else also revealed a happy smile.
"But it's still a little against the rules for us to exterminate the Elina family." Someone else sighed.
"Hmph, have you forgotten that day?" Heinz only glanced at the man.
"Alright, let's kill them." The man seemed to have recalled some unpleasant memories and changed his mind.
"Yes, we're all in the same boat now. Don't worry, as long as no one says anything, my family will take over the business here. Then, everyone will be safe," Heinz said with hatred.
Ten years ago.
In the Academy, Rock had defeated them all by himself, and it was a completely crushing defeat. This was a huge humiliation for those who lost.
However, Rock was too strong. Not only did he quickly advance to the first circle, but he also seemed to be on the verge of breaking through to the second circle. They could only sigh helplessly and clench their teeth in anger.
But the funny thing was, Rock was dead. The guy was suddenly dead.
Thus, under the lead of Heinz, the group of four first circle shadow lizard bloodline warlocks and fifteen Level 3 Warlock apprentices were ready to slaughter the family.
At first, they were not very interested, but Heinz's family had always wanted to take over Ross' family in the name of revenge. After that, they would give one-third of the benefits to everyone. That was why they took action.
After all, more than ten years had passed, and the hatred was no longer as deep as before. However, the benefits were eternal.
"Yes, I've already purchased a large-scale spell formation, and four people have already set it up."
As soon as Heinz finished speaking, the four corners of the palace started to shake. Instantly, a huge translucent film covered the palace.
"This is the Four Seasons elemental spell formation. As long as the time isn't up, even a second-circle Mage won't be able to break through it. Furthermore, the outside world won't be able to hear the sounds and images inside. This is the time for us to kill." Heinz grinned and walked in first.
The others also smiled and strode in.
On one side was the Elina family, which had no first-circle warlocks but only a group of apprentices. On the other side was Heinz's side, which had four official warlocks and more than ten third-circle apprentices.
Everyone was already imagining what would happen next.
The Elina family was a mage family. There were many good things in this place, and they could make a fortune from it.
…
"I can't get out!"
Eli looked at the translucent spell formation in front of him and frowned.
This group of people from the outside world had moved too quickly. They must have planned this in advance and had instantly sealed off this place.
The spell formation in front of him was so strong that even a second circle mage would have a hard time breaking it unless he used a long-term violent attack to break it. That would be slow, and it would definitely attract the attention of the group of people.
"Hey, what the hell is this?!" Eli shook his head. He had avoided the crisis at the camp but not the sudden attack here.
But fortunately, this batch of outsiders did not seem to be too strong. Eli could dispatch them if he put in some effort.
"Yes, I need to set it up quickly." Eli thought for a moment, then quickly returned to the area where Ross was.
Unfortunately, this spell formation could not be broken, or else Eli would have run away and avoided all these troubles. As for the lives of Ross and the others, it had nothing to do with him.
No one would really think that he had a close relationship with Rock, who he had only met once.
He soon arrived at the castle.
At this moment, Heinz and the others were scattered in all directions and were fighting all the way to the center. The two apprentices in the castle were also shocked and wanted to run away. They had no intention of protecting Ross.
So, when Eli arrived at the castle, only Ross was left.
"Grandpa Herman!" When he saw Eli return, Ross immediately ran over and hugged his leg. "the apprentice protecting me said that there was an intruder and told me to stay here. Grandpa, what kind of intruder is this? How are my mother and the others? " Ross asked.
Eli could not bear to answer. From what he could sense, nearly twenty warlocks were killing non-stop, and almost all the members of the Elena family were being attacked.
Eli could go and save them, but if he did, he wouldn't be able to set things up properly. Besides, even if he did, he couldn't save all of them.
So, after some thought, he gave up.
"Ross, don't worry. It'll be fine." Eli said vaguely.
"Yes." Ross ran back to the castle as if he had understood something, tears flowing down his face.
Eli shook his head and continued to set up. A Mage who was well-prepared would have combat power that far exceeded his own strength.
At the same time.
Heinz pulled a woman out of the bedroom.
"You must be Rock's mother," Heinz said in a brutal tone as the ferocity of his bloodline was activated.
"Please, I beg you, let go…" the Queen was in her pajamas and was being dragged on the ground.
"Ha!" Heinz laughed and killed her.
This time, he had originally intended to cut the weeds and eliminate the roots.
He took a look at this place and then continued to retreat into the palace.
The killing continued.
On this day.
The Elena family would disappear.
…
An hour later. historical
Everyone met again.
Heinz smiled as he looked at everyone's bloodshot eyes.
By now, almost everyone had died, and only a few people were still scattered around the castle.
"Heinz, Rock's son is still in the castle." A man said fiercely. The shadow lizards were originally brutal creatures, and they became even more so after seeing blood.
"Oh, really? That would be great." Heinz smiled.
Tonight's slaughter went smoothly. Although there was a little accident and a few of their people died, it was insignificant.
Soon, they arrived outside the castle.
However, when they arrived, everyone was stunned by the scene before them.
More than ten spell formations surrounded the castle, and a man was in the middle. He was wearing a wizard's robe and holding a staff, looking at them.
"What is this?" Heinz looked at the spell formations and frowned. They were set up recently.
"Who are you?" Heinz asked.
"If you leave now, I can pretend nothing happened." Eli looked at the fourteen people in front of him with a serious expression.
Four first-circle warlocks and ten Level 3 apprentices. This kind of combat power was not weak.
"Leave? Haha." Hearing this, Heinz laughed out loud.
"Do you really think an acolyte like you can hold out for long, do you? Moreover, we have a dozen people here, while there is only one of you. We have the advantage in strength and numbers."
"As expected, we have to fight?" He had always thought of the worst possible situation. If he had his choice, he would avoid all conflict. But people rarely wanted to go for peace.
Although he was a half-baked Necromancer, it was stupid to compare numbers with Eli…
"Open the spell formation now and hand over Ross, and I'll let you go." Heinz tried to solve the problem in a simpler way.
"If you had left quietly, I wouldn't have to do this," Eli said, shaking his head. "One more thing. You don't really have the advantage in numbers."
Heinz was speechless.
"This Warlock must be scared out of his wits." Some of the apprentices looked at him as if he was an idiot. They were sure that they would win, which was why they were so relaxed.
But the next second, everyone was speechless.
As soon as Eli finished speaking, shadows suddenly appeared around them. Everyone was stunned as they saw skeletons walking out from the shadows.
Just three seconds.
The dozen or so people looked at the two to three hundred skeletons around them and fell silent.
Why did the situation seem a little off?
What made them feel even more troubled was that there were ten one-circle skeletons.
It was a huge problem for them.
"He isn't a Warlock apprentice at all. He's a first-circle Necromancer!" Suddenly, someone shouted.
Heinz finally understood who their opponent was.
It was big news that there was a Necromancer hidden in the Elena family.
But before that, they had to deal with the threat before them first.
"Don't be afraid, everyone. We can deal with this. Besides, the Necromancer's combat power mainly relies on their undead. They are weak in other aspects. As long as we deal with the undead, we can easily deal with him!" Heinz encouraged.
At the same time, the undead skeletons also attacked the warlocks.
The battle began.
Looking at the people fighting, Eli took out a small bench and then watched the battle.
Controlling so many spirits at the same time was already his limit, and he had no other means.
Three hours later.
As the last skeleton fell …
Heinz smiled, but his mouth twitched as he looked at the one-circle and three zero-circle warlocks around him. That was all that was left of his group. He had underestimated the Necromancer.
However, since all the skeletons were dead, it was their turn now.
Heinz turned his head and looked at Eli, gritting his teeth.
"You deserve to die. I'll pull off your head in a moment."
Report chapter Comments
At this moment, Heinz and the others had half-transformed into bloodline Warriors. Their bodies were covered in black scales and shadows, and their eyes had cruel black vertical pupils.
"Attack!" Heinz ordered, and the remaining five people started attacking.
Bang!
Bang Bang!
The black flames and sharp claws touched the shields and created sparks. With a ferocious smile, Heinz shattered the shields one by one.
Necromancers had much weaker bodies than warlocks. As long as he went in hard, Eli would be dead.
Looking at Heinz and the others who were attacking him non-stop, Eli couldn't just ignore them. He started casting spells one after another and attacked them.
The two first-circle sorcerers managed to block the attacks with their strong bodies, but the rest of the apprentices died quickly. Heinz did not care about this and continued to cut down the shield.
The powerful attacks hit the shield one after another. As Eli attacked, he kept an eye on the remaining two.
One of them was at the middle stage of One circle, while Heinz was at the late stage. They were at a higher level than Eli, but they were both exhausted, and their bloodline power was also weakening.
Unlike mages, warlocks' training mainly relied on the power of their bloodlines. The first circle warlocks also focused on the compatibility of their bloodlines. Both of them had at least a 60% compatibility, which should be considered the later stages of the first circle.
30% and below would be in the early stage, 30%-60% middle stage, and 60%-90% late stage. The equivalent for mages would be elemental conversion. Of course, the upper limit was usually 90%. After all, they were humans, and it was almost impossible to completely transform into either an elemental or bloodline.
Judging from Eli's power of the will, he was a mid-stage first circle mage, but he was a weak warlock. Eli was only 34% compatible with the shadow dragon.
There was nothing he could do about it. He had chosen the path of a mage. In fact, most living mages would have moved onto the path of the warlocks by this point. Eli preferred to focus on his studies.
Pressed by the warlocks, Eli couldn't use any powerful spells either. He could only watch as his shield was destroyed bit by bit, but his original intention was to exhaust his enemies anyway.
As the shield slowly disappeared, Heinz and his friend looked tired. The power of their bloodlines had also decreased.
"Heinz, we can't continue. We need to take a break." the other Warlock said with a tired expression.
"Yes." Heinz nodded. He turned to look at Eli and said fiercely, "Damn necromancer, we'll go in and take your head off in a moment."
"Hehe!"
"What are you laughing at? come out if you have the guts!" Heinz said furiously.
"Alright!"
Heinz was about to curse when he suddenly heard this. He was stunned and then saw Eli slowly walk out of the shield.
Eli looked at Heinz and the other warlock. Then, a large shadow appeared on his body. Dragon scales covered his body, and his dark eyes gradually turned into golden vertical pupils.
"Come, let me see the shadow lizard's bloodline." A smile appeared on Eli's face.
Once his enemies were exhausted, it was naturally his turn to act. historical
"you've also fused with a bloodline? "
Heinz's eyes were wide open. 'this mage has learned too many things. Necromancy, elemental spells, and bloodline spells. Can you even learn all of them?'
However, this was not the most important thing. What was important was that when he looked at Eli, he kept feeling a terrifying suppression. It was his bloodline telling him that he needed to be afraid.
Was there such a bloodline on the West Coast?
Heinz's throat moved slightly. "This feeling … Could this be a Dragon bloodline warlock? A warlock who had merged with the bloodline of a giant dragon?" the shadow lizard also had a trace of the bloodline of a giant dragon.
"Heinz, something is wrong!" The other Warlock also felt the pressure.
At this moment, they, who had used up more than half of their energy, looked at Eli and felt great fear.
"What? I'm out of my shield. Why aren't you guys attacking?" A smile appeared on Eli's face.
After spending a few hours, wasn't it all for this moment?
"Come on!"
"Heinz, go!"
On the other side, Heinz looked at his friend and attacked at the same time.
At this point, there was no time for regret, and as they got closer to Eli, they could feel the suppression of their bloodline even more, which made their already weak physical strength drain even faster.
The battle began.
"Go to hell!" Heinz cursed as he controlled the shadows around him to attack Eli.
However, he was stunned in the next second. Although the shadow had appeared, it did not attack Eli. Instead, it pounced directly at the two of them, drowning them.
Compared to the shadow lizard, the shadow Dragon was naturally even more powerful.
In the shadows, Heinz's mouth twitched. He never thought that things would turn out like this. In front of Eli, their ability to control shadows was almost stripped away. In the darkness, he could only resist the shadows that came at him from all directions.
"Damn it!" Heinz cursed.
Suddenly, he felt a gust of wind beside his ear. His eyes widened, and he immediately dodged to the side. However, a Dragon Claw had already swept past his ear and tore a gash on his face.
Heinz's throat moved slightly as he regretted his decision. After missing his attack, he immediately returned to the shadows and waited for an opportunity.
Just like that, Heinz kept observing while Eli kept looking for an opportunity.
Finally, ten minutes later.
As Heinz tried his best to defend himself, a Dragon Claw pierced through his chest, broke through his hard scales, and crushed his heart.
Heinz was dead!
With Heinz's death, the shadow gradually disappeared.
It revealed Eli, who was standing on the ground, the dead Heinz, and the other warlock.
The shadow area created by combining the shadow dragon's bloodline with other spell models was still very useful, but it consumed a lot of energy and was a little difficult to control. This was a skill that he had developed when he was free, and it was not bad for his first showing.
Moreover, this was a spell with great potential, and it had the potential to be improved continuously.
"ah, I was almost injured. If there were dozens more of them, it might have been dangerous!" Eli shook his head and looked at the only wound on his arm. It was caused by Heinz in the shadows. "Thankfully, no one is around to see this."
No, wait. Eli turned to look at the castle. At this moment, through a window in the castle, Ross was dumbfounded.
Was Grandpa Herman, who was protecting him, that powerful?
On the other hand, Eli sighed. He should have knocked Ross out earlier. But now he had to brand the boy.
…
Three hours later.
Outside the capital city of Corina, a figure was running wildly.
His entire body was covered in pitch-black scales, and his vertical pupils were filled with anger and anxiety. When he saw the capital city, his speed increased, and he headed straight for the palace.
"damn it, damn it, damn it!" Eiffel's face was filled with anger.
He had been on duty outside when he suddenly received news that his family was under attack. Furthermore, the one who told him the news was his old nemesis' family. This made him turn pale with fright, and he immediately ran over.
He entered the palace.
He smelled the blood, and his heart skipped a beat.
Blood and corpses were everywhere.
Eiffel gritted his teeth. He had gone to almost every place, but there was no one alive. There was almost nothing left in the family.
Everything he had, the family he had managed for his entire life, was gone just like that.
"It's gone, it's all gone," said Eiffel miserably, tears flowing down his tough skin.
Other than a few external members of the family, none of the direct family members, other than him, were alive.
He was already 200 years old. In addition to the injuries he had suffered when he was young, he didn't have many years left to live. Today, all of his relatives had left him, which made him feel a little pained.
All the pain turned into sorrow, and Eiffel took out a dagger.
He picked it up with one hand and placed it on his chest.
He closed his eyes.
"What are you doing, Sir Effiel?" Suddenly, a voice was heard.
Among the brambles of a large tree not far away, a large patch of brambles slowly spread out, revealing Eli and Ross, who were blinking at the side.
Eiffel opened his eyes, and their eyes met. The atmosphere was awkward.
Eiffel's mouth twitched. He didn't expect someone to be alive. He didn't even sense it just now, but when he saw Ross beside him, his eyes widened.
He quickly ran over and picked Ross up, confirming that he was really his great-grandson.
"Sir Eiffel, someone attacked this place a few hours ago. I fused with the bramble tree demon bloodline, so I immediately hid here with Ross until Sir arrived. What's going on? " Eli said in horror as if he recalled the terrifying scene from before.
"Who did this?" Although he didn't know when Herman had advanced to the first circle, he didn't have the time to care about that.
"I don't know." Eli shook his head.
"Forget it. I'll investigate it." Originally, he was already prepared to die, but he suddenly found out that his family members were still alive, so he immediately pulled himself together.
"Thank you, Herman." Said Effiel with a serious expression.
"It's nothing. I just want to protect myself." Eli shook his head and sighed.
"Sigh, it's a pity that I have nothing now. My collection room and the magic stones in my family's storage have all been ransacked. I can't give you a reward." Said Effiel with a sigh.
"It's alright, Sir. I will still receive my reward for the mission." A forced smile appeared on Eli's face.
"I'm still sorry. Don't worry. If there's a chance in the future, I'll definitely reward you. But right now, I'm bringing my grandson to the Academy. I have to ask for an explanation. Moreover, that place is also the safest place. Why don't you return to the camp first? I heard that the situation is quite serious there." Said Effiel apologetically.
"Yes, my lord." Eli nodded.
The two of them chatted for a while more, and then Effiel left with Ross.
…
On the way, Eiffel brought Ross to the Academy. He glanced at Ross and said, "not only did Herman save you, but he didn't ask for a reward. He's a good man. Don't forget him in the future."
Ross blinked.
A good person?
…
On the other side.
Eli sensed that Ross' soul was in a normal state, and then took a look at the Elena family's inheritance in his secret realm, before quickly leaving the city.
Report chapter Comments
After leaving the city of Corina, Eli did not return to the campsite directly. Instead, he entered the forest on the way, chased away the bear in the tree hole, and entered the arcane realm.
In the secret plane, Eli looked at the small mountain of magic stones and the miscellaneous items on the side. He felt his breathing quicken. It had been a long time since he had seen so much money.
After taking stock, he found that there were a total of 3000 low-grade magic stones, three zero-circle magic tools, one first-circle magic tool, two first-circle bloodlines, and some strange items. One of the black boxes caught Eli's attention.
The box was black in color, and it was covered in red blood vessel-like patterns. There were spell formations at the bottom, and it looked very strange.
Bang!
!!
The box was stained with blood. historical
This was actually nothing much, but as the blood stained the box, it began to emit a bright light, and a strange and evil aura slowly spread out.
Eli silently retreated a few kilometers.
In the next second, all of the spell formations in the secret plane were activated, and the box was instantly enveloped by all kinds of colorful restrictions. One of the undead was ordered by Eli to open the box.
The pale white bone slowly touched the box, and a wave of darkness and shadow slowly climbed up. However, the box also slowly opened with a determined speed, revealing a purple-black heart inside.
The heart was about the size of a basketball, and its surface was black and purple. There were green-black blood vessels attached to it, and at the same time, a shadow and dark aura were emitted from it.
"The heart of a shadow lizard!"
Looking at the heart, Eli relaxed. It was just a shadow lizard's heart, but judging from its aura, it should be a second circle, which was why it had such a strong aura. It should be the Elena family's Secret treasure.
The restrictions were lifted layer by layer, and Eli slowly walked over, letting the undead hold the heart.
How should he deal with it?
Eli frowned. Logically speaking, a second-circle bloodline was quite valuable, especially one taken from a second-circle creature. Whether it was for fusion or other uses, it would be worth at least a thousand magic stones.
The most cost-effective way would be to sell it, but Eli had no intention of doing so.
Shadow lizards were almost the standard equipment of the shadow lizard Warlock Academy. If he sold them privately, it would definitely attract their attention. It would be bad if he was discovered, so he might as well use it himself.
Shadow lizard and shadow dragon were from the same family, so Eli could use the heart to increase the compatibility of his bloodline.
Since he had an unlimited number of magic stones, he might as well use the heart to increase his combat power as a Warlock.
Eli grabbed the heart and headed to the lab.
Half a day later, Eli looked at the bottle of dark purple blood in his hand and drank it all in one go. At the same time, his compatibility with the shadow Dragon bloodline was rapidly increasing.
34%.
35%.
…
Three days later, Eli opened her eyes. After sensing that the compatibility rate was 49%, he smiled.
Although it seemed like he had suffered a loss, he was still very happy to see his strength increase.
At the same time.
Eli suddenly felt a message from the camp.
"The Corina family has terminated the mission ahead of time, and the camp has now stabilized. Herman, you can come back now."
It was Evena.
Eli looked at the message and stood up. He had been hiding outside for more than two years, so it was time to return.
And if Eli didn't remember wrongly, many ministers died this time.
This time, things might be very different.
…
Five days later.
After getting used to his upgraded bloodline, Eli returned to the camp.
At the same time, his aura slowly rose to the level of someone who had just entered the first ring. At the same time, the gentle aura of a plant-type bloodline also began to emanate from his body.
It had to be said that as expected of the shadow dragon. His disguising ability was superb, and with the help of the faceless mask, even a third-circle mage would not be able to discover him. As for celestials, Eli wouldn't know until he met another one.
The only pity was that although the quality of his items was good, they were all in the first circle. The main thing was that his ability wasn't enough. When his alchemy skills were high enough, he could directly upgrade them.
Five days later, Eli came to the edge of the camp.
There were traces of battle everywhere on the road, and there were even blood and remnants in some places. Many houses had collapsed, and it looked like the battle had been quite intense.
Eli didn't return to the campsite immediately. Instead, he went home first. His 'Warlock neighbor', Tijie, had already left.
Judging from the message that Tijie had given to him, she had already left the place with the mages and was preparing to set up a new camp somewhere.
After all, he might have to take refuge with the mages one day, and it would be good to visit the wizard camp. As for Tijie, if it were convenient, he would also give her some help and raise her status.
After settling everything down, Eli went straight to the camp.
The further he went, the more damaged buildings he saw. There were also very few people on the streets. Compared to before, the prosperity level had dropped by more than one level. It would take time to recover.
At the entrance of the camp, Eli actually met someone familiar.
"Long time no see, Sir Herman." Alice looked a little sad.
"Hmm, you don't seem to be in a good mood. What happened?" Eli asked.
"Well, it's just that I grew up here. I'm sad to see this place in such a state." Alice sighed, then looked at Eli and said in surprise, " "My Lord, you're at the first circle?"
"Yes, I had my breakthrough outside."
"Congratulations, my Lord." Alice congratulated.
"Okay, then I'll take my leave first. If you run into any big trouble, I'll sort it out. If you run into any small trouble, you can come to me at any time." Eli said.
Alice nodded and watched Eli leave.
…
Potion Department
Bang Bang Bang!
"Come in!"
Eli walked into Evena's office.
"you've advanced in rank!" Evena was surprised to see Eli walking in.
"Yes, I've integrated my bloodline with a bramble demon." Eli smiled.
He looked at Evena now. Her appearance had not changed much, but the power of her bloodline was obviously much weaker. It seemed that she had been seriously injured in the battle.
"I knew you could do it." Evena smiled. "Now, the camp needs people. You've advanced to the first circle, so you'll definitely be valued. When the time comes, I'll bring you to see the battalion commander," Said Evena.
"by then, you should be able to get a good position, and you'll gain access to better things."
Just as Eli had expected, being in the first circle would bring about new changes.
"I really didn't expect you to succeed, tsk tsk tsk!" Evena stood up, shook her head, and sighed. Her rabbit ears swayed.
Eli, "…"
I'm so looked down upon!
"Hmm, tomorrow then. I'll bring you to see the battalion commander tomorrow. I've been really busy recently." Said Evena.
"Yes."
He was already looking forward to tomorrow.
…
The next day.
Led by Evena, Eli followed her to find battalion commander Kratos.
On the way, Eli looked at the bunny-eared Evena and asked, " "Minister, can you tell me about the battalion commander?"
Although he had been here for many years, he had not had much contact with this battalion commander.
"Eh, he's actually quite a good person. He's quite gentle, just that he looks cold, and he's also very protective of his subordinates. In any case, he's a strong but gentle man." Said Evena after thinking for a while.
"Is that so? then…"
"Don't ask. You'll know when you see him." Eli wanted to ask more, but he was stopped by Evena.
At this time, they had arrived in front of a Mage Tower.
After entering and reporting to the guard, Eli was brought to a room.
"I'm not going in," Said Evena with a smile.
He nodded and knocked on the door.
"Come in!" A bright voice was heard as Eli opened the door and walked in.
It was a small room, but the layout was quite unique. It was basically brown, and there were oil lamp-like magic lamps hanging on the walls on both sides. On one side was a bookshelf filled with books, and on the other side was a magic Wolf specimen.
In the middle of the room was a large table, and a man was looking at him.
He had short brown hair and dark pupils. His face looked very comfortable, but there was a horizontal scar near his eye. However, he looked very friendly overall.
"Hello, Sir Kratos. I'm Herman." As Eli introduced, he secretly observed.
Evena did not react to his disguise at all. He wanted to see how this battalion commander would react.
"Not bad, not bad. I've heard about you from Evena. You're quite experienced in the camp. After all, you've been here for more than 20 years. You're very conscientious." Kratos said with a smile, exuding the power of a second-circle warlock.
"It's all thanks to your good management of the camp. Otherwise, I wouldn't have such an environment to improve myself!" Eli said.
"Hahahaha!" Hearing this, Kratos smiled. After all, everyone was willing to listen to praises.
"Well, the main reason you're summoned is that many first-circle warlocks have died in the camp, and there are many empty positions. I've been very troubled recently."
"I'm willing to help you solve your worries, Sir," Eli said.
"Yes, I've prepared two positions for you. One of them is to lead an important Department, and I'm worried about handing it to someone else. You've been with Evelina for decades, and she's my confidant, so I trust you." Kratos said with admiration.
"Which two?"
"The head of the magic plant Department and the head of the mage relics disposal Department."

142 Rawls
"The magic plant Department and the mage relics disposal Department?"
Eli blinked.
"Yes," Kratos nodded.
"The magical plant Department is one of the most important departments in the camp. Together with the magical potion Department and alchemy Department, they are also one of the most important departments in the camp. They are in charge of planting magical plants in the camp. It used to be managed by my subordinate, but he died in the battle, so I have to find a new department lead." Kratos said.
"What about the Mage relic disposal Department?" This was what Eli was curious about.
!!
"Um, what do I say about this Department?" Kratos frowned and said, "As you know, there are some mage relics in our area. The camp will send people to explore them. That's why this Department was formed.
"This Department is mainly in charge of managing and storing the miscellaneous items that can't be sold and things that no one wants. Actually, there's not much work to do. When the time comes, you just have to manage it casually. The main thing is that the camp is currently lacking manpower." Kratos shook his head and said apologetically, "I'm a little embarrassed, but it's really troublesome to hold two positions."
"It doesn't matter. This is what I should do!" Eli nodded.
What a joke, trouble?
He couldn't be happier. Forget about the magical plants Department, Eli also had his own arcane realm where he planted many magical plants. Now, he had a whole department where he could experiment on magical plants.
Of course, this was not a big deal. The main reward was the Mage relics disposal Department.
What did warlocks not need?
It was nothing more than things that couldn't be used, or some " useless " knowledge, but these were what Eli needed. This was practically sending him into the House of Gold.
In the future, Eli wouldn't need to spend money to buy mage knowledge anymore. He could just quietly collect them in the Department.
"Yes, but don't worry, the mage Plant Department is probably too big, so it has always been handled by two people. I'll introduce you to your colleague today." Kratos answered with a smile.
Speak of the Devil, just then, there was a knock on the door.
"He's here," Kratos smiled at Eli and said, "Come in, Rawls!"
Eli turned around.
The door opened, and a man walked in.
He had golden hair, slightly red eyes, and a faint smile on his face. He was tall and well-proportioned, and he wore a black top and long pants. He looked extremely elegant.
"This is Rawls, just like you, he just advanced to the first circle. He has integrated the bloodline of the second circle Balor the flame demon and has the opportunity to break through to the second circle in the future. Even the shadow Lizard Wizard Academy tried to recruit him, but he refused." Kratos introduced with a smile.
"This is Herman, a first circle bramble tree demon. In the future, he will manage half of the magic plants Department with you. He is very good at magic medicine." Similarly, Kratos introduced Eli to him.
"It's a pleasure to meet you," Rawls stretched out his hand with a smile.
Likewise, Eli shook hands with him.
It seemed that this person who would work with him in the future was quite polite.
Seeing this, Kratos laughed heartily.
"then I'll assign you your tasks. The magic herb field is currently on the East and West sides. Since the wizard relic disposal Department is on the east side, Eli will be in charge of the East, and Rawls will be in charge of the West. What do you think? " Kratos distributed.
"Yes, I will definitely not let you down, Sir," Rawls said.
"I can do it too." Glancing at Rawls, Eli nodded as well. He suddenly felt that there was something wrong with this colleague of his.
"Okay, Rawls, you can leave now. I'll arrange other works for Herman." Now that he was done, Kratos waved his hand to dismiss Rawls.
"Herman, I need to tell you something about Rawls. I hope you're not affected." Kratos said.
Eli, "…"
"Hmm, Rawls might be very competitive in everything and hope to defeat his opponents. Therefore, he's always very serious. I hope you're not influenced too much. Just do your best. Additionally, he's a bit narrow-minded. Please forgive him as much as possible." Kratos explained tactfully.
Eli understood now. However, he doubted that he would be affected.
"Okay, I got it." Eli nodded.
"Fine, that's all I have to say. You will gradually get acquainted with Rawls. Actually, he's not bad in other aspects…" Kratos wanted to say something but stopped, and in the end, he only left a cheering expression for Eli.
Eli was baffled.
Then, Kratos told Eli some things to take note of, and Eli left.
…
In the blink of an eye, a month had passed.
Eli had yet to take over his duties, but after advancing to the first circle, he got to know many new first-circle warlocks under Evena's guidance, and the level of the people he knew was raised once again.
Eli also understood why Kratos had a complicated look in his eyes at the end.
Although Rawls was always elegant and polite to people outside, he was actually a man who liked power. He was a little narrow-minded and extremely hardworking. If you offended him, you would have to be careful of being reported by him and often be punished.
But fortunately, Rawls was very rule-abiding and would not make things up out of thin air, nor would he slander others. Therefore, many people had complicated feelings about him, but overall, he still had a good reputation.
Knowing this, Eli relaxed. He was still wondering what would happen. He was such a conscientious, law-abiding good person. What did breaking the law have to do with him?
Just like that, another half a month passed in the blink of an eye.
…
He came to the magical plant farm.
The magical plants division was located outside the camp. Next to the large magical herb field, there was a three-story building. It looked very simple, and a plant similar to an ivy climbed on it.
What Eli didn't expect was that he would run into Rawls.
"Rawls, long time no see." Eli greeted.
"Yeah, I remember you're Herman. I hope we can work together in the future." Rawls gave a standard smile as he walked over.
The two of them met at the entrance, where the two deputy ministers were also present.
"Minister Herman, I'm Rona. I'll be helping you with your work from now on."
"Minister Rawls, I'm Erdo. I'll help you deal with this in the future."
Because the area of the magic plants Department was too large, it was almost equivalent to two departments put together, so everything was almost doubled. The only shared probably was the department building.
And so, Eli and Rawls were invited in by the crowd.
Moreover, their office was a very large room, each taking up half of the space.
"Rona, introduce me to my current job." Eli glanced at Rawls, who was not far away and said to Rona.
"Minister, the magic herb field in the East has a total of 100 acres. It is mainly planted with more than a dozen magic plants, including the silent Crescent, Dracaena, cross flowers, and so on. These are our jobs. In fact, we just need to ensure the quality and quantity." Rona said cautiously. He wasn't too familiar with the Deputy Minister's temper.
Eli nodded.
How could the Head of Department manage everything? He mainly depended on his subordinates.
"Alright," he said. Rona nodded. It seemed like this Minister was very easy to talk to.
"Alright, that's it then. We'll talk about it later." Eli nodded and prepared to leave.
At the same time, Erdo had just finished introducing Rawls.
Rawls also nodded.
He looked over at Eli. He had asked about him, and the information said that this person was usually very carefree. He was very lazy and often went to brothels.
"This kind of person is really the cancer of the camp!" Rawls shook his head, looking down on Eli.
He hated people who were lazy and didn't do anything. One should work hard in life!
He would work hard and strive to increase the production and sales on his side and then kick Eli out of the magic plants Department.
After all, there were two department heads in one department. It made him feel uncomfortable.
At that moment, he could see that Eli was about to leave after understanding the situation.
"Herman, you're leaving already?"
"Yes. What else is there for us to do?" Eli asked.
Looking at Eli's back as he left, Rawls' mouth twitched, and he said to Erdo, " go and bring me the information on the magic herb field. I need to study it carefully so that I can cultivate it better."
He also had a certain understanding of magic plants. Otherwise, he would not have come here.
"Alright," he said. Erdo immediately went to get it, but his face was twitching. 'Are we still working today?' He suddenly felt that following Rawls might not be a good idea.
He looked at Rona, who was also preparing to leave, and revealed an envious expression.
… historical
Eli, who left, did not know what Rawls was thinking. He could not wait to go to his other Department to take a look.
The Mage relic Department!
This was practically what Eli wanted all his life!
Soon, Eli passed through a few small paths and saw the Department in a remote corner of the camp.
However, looking at the overgrown ground in front of him and the low two-story building not far away, he suddenly realized that this Department was far inferior to the magic plant Department.
However, Eli still followed the path and walked in.
Very quickly, someone came to show Eli around.
"Paul, are there only six people in our department?" Eli said to Paul.
Paul was the Deputy Minister of the Department. He was a skinny old man with very little hair.
"Yes, my lord. There are only a few of us." Paul nodded.
Eli could only accept his fate.
Soon, Paul introduced him to a job, which was to store and transport useless things after exploration. He often had a few months of leisure time a year. This might be why even though Eli was already the Minister of another department, he was still assigned to this place.
"Forget it. Just bring me to the department's warehouse." Ignoring these details, Eli said to Paul.
Eli was still interested in the Mage's relics here.
He wanted to see if there was anything he wanted in the warehouse.

143 Result
The warehouse was located halfway up the mountain behind the Department. It was a space dug out from the middle of the mountain for storage. Although there were many things inside, most of them were worthless.
This was because the explorers would take away the valuable things and not leave anything valuable for Eli. Of course, this was only for warlocks. There could still be some stuff that mages could use.
At the foot of the mountain.
The corners of Eli's mouth twitched as he watched Paul take out a bunch of keys from his waist and skillfully open the door that was locked with iron chains.
This was the first time he had seen such a simple gate since he came to the camp. Whether it was the potion or demon plant divisions, not only were there all kinds of spell formations but there were also warlocks patrolling. However, not only was there no one guarding this place, but they actually used such a weak door.
!!
"Isn't this protective measure a little too careless?" Eli asked after taking a deep breath.
Paul was puzzled for a moment, then said, " but there's nothing of value in the storage. Most of them are useless trash.
Eli, "…"
Fine, it seemed that he had overestimated this Department.
"Alright, I'll go in and take a look." Shaking his head, Eli followed Paul into the open door.
Using a simple zero-circle spell, the entire space was instantly illuminated.
In front of him was a huge space. The ground area was about the size of a football field, and the height was about ten meters. There were shelves on both sides of the space with all kinds of items on them. historical
Rather than a warehouse, it was more like a garbage dump.
"My Lord, these are all the items. If my Lord has taken a fancy to anything, just take it. There are no records of these items, and no one cares." Paul reminded him.
"Yes, yes." Eli nodded and walked inside.
"Eh, this is?" Just as he walked to the first shelf, the items on it surprised him.
On the third level of the shelf, there was an item that looked like a Monocle with a golden frame. On the other end was a chain, which looked interesting.
"master, this was dug out from a ruin. It was left behind by a mage. It seems to be an object used to observe soul fluctuations. Unfortunately, it seems to be connected to mental strength and can only be used by mages. It might have had some value in the past, but no one needs it now."
Eli blinked.
He observed the soul fluctuations.
This seemed to be exactly what he needed for his experiment!
"It looks pretty good, so I'll take it."
Eli took it away.
Paul nodded. It didn't matter.
After taking the glasses away, Eli continued to search inside. He had thought that the stuff here would be good, but he realized that he was completely wrong. There was almost nothing here. The glasses from before might already be the most valuable thing here.
Eli was a little disappointed.
"We still have to go further in. If we go further in, there are some books that used to be written by mages. They basically introduce the mage world and other things." Paul kept talking as he walked, telling Eli about all sorts of things here.
"Oh?"
Upon hearing this, Eli's interest was piqued again.
At the end of the warehouse, there were all kinds of books piled up on the ground. Some looked like they had been bitten open by bugs, and many of the remaining ones were rotten.
Damn it, didn't this group of warlocks know how to properly preserve their books?
"Paul, find a few people to sort out the books and send them to me. I'll take a look at them. I'll get rid of the trash." Eli frowned as if he was a little displeased with this pile.
"Alright. I also think it's time to pack up. These books are such trash." Paul nodded, then he suddenly felt a chill behind him.
He turned to look at Eli, who was still smiling kindly.
"Strange…" Paul commented curiously.
"Well, that's it then. I'll come here once in a while in the future, and you'll still be in charge of this place." nodded Eli.
"Yes, Minister." Paul smiled.
After settling the department's matters, Eli's life returned to normal.
Everything was developing in a good direction, and it seemed like life was going back to normal.
He would go to the potions Department for half an hour every day, and then he would do experiments at home.
The gold-rimmed glasses were also of great help to Eli.
…
In the laboratory.
Another blood bamboo flower was placed in.
As the instrument was activated, a few elemental particles penetrated the blood bamboo flower. In a state of extreme speed, a mysterious fluctuation appeared once again, directly sucking the blood in the blood bamboo flower dry. However, the fluctuation was constantly observed by Eli.
"So it's like this!"
Under the lens was another world. The moment the fluctuation appeared, Eli saw that the bamboo flower first produced a rapid frequency, then a dozen small fluctuations, and finally produced that power.
This was also the first time that Eli felt that he was so close to this devouring power.
However, even though he was getting closer, the experiment seemed to take longer than Eli had expected. The main reason was that the frequency was too long, but it was also too fast. If he were to analyze everything, it might take a long time.
"So, everything has to be overturned?"
The corner of Eli's mouth twitched. After today's observation, he realized that his previous train of thought was completely wrong. He originally thought that the power fluctuation was just a wave, but he didn't expect it to be a dozen short segments put together. It was completely wrong.
He had to start from the beginning. Decades of hard work had been shattered in a single day. If it were any other first-circle mage, they would probably vomit blood. But Eli shook his head and began to arrange the direction of the experiment again.
It would only take a few decades to rectify a mistake.
Anyway, he didn't expect this to be solved in the short term.
Eli's gaze gradually became determined. This was also his advantage. In an infinite amount of time, the cost of his trial and error would be infinitely reduced, and time would always be on his side.
…
Paul had also sent all the books over to Eli.
Eli began to read.
40% of the books were damaged and unreadable, the remaining 50% were basically general knowledge, and the remaining 10% were scattered knowledge that was very fragmented.
The first thing that Eli looked at was the science section, which basically introduced some places in the mage World, the world's geography, or the enemies from other worlds that they had encountered.
He read with great interest. It was at this moment that he realized how powerful the Mages were. Many other worlds had submitted to them, and they even had the title of slave owner of the endless world.
However, such a huge civilization suddenly changed more than 4000 years ago. The mages who had the ability left the mage world, and the ones who did not have the ability stayed. As a result, it developed into the world today.
One of the logs had such a passage that attracted Eli's attention.
"This is a terrifying *. We're not their match. We've lost."
What was *?
The time in this log was about the time the mages had escaped.
What had they encountered?
A world with many seven-circles mages had suddenly collapsed.
"Forget it. This isn't something I can worry about for now." Eli shook his head and continued to flip through the books on other topics.
As for the other books, most of them were short, but they also gave Eli some new ideas.
In short, it was the right decision for Eli to come to this Department.
…
Time slowly passed.
This morning.
As usual, Eli went to the office of the magical plants Department.
He lay on the recliner and read the reports from the past few days.
Rona was also sitting on a sofa not far away, drinking tea. Time was peaceful.
On the other side, Rawls was sitting in a chair, seriously dealing with all kinds of things in the magic herb field and actively making arrangements. Next to him, Erdo was also constantly flipping through documents.
For a moment, the entire office was filled with two different images.
Erdo was busy with his work, occasionally looking at Rona with envy.
Rawls also kept his eyes on the documents, but when he saw that Eli had already prepared to leave, he couldn't hold it in anymore.
"Eli, you're leaving again?"
"Yeah, it's time to get off work!" Eli glanced at Rawls.
"Then why don't you carefully check the properties of the magic medicine field, the spraying of various nutrients, and other matters?"
"No need, I've already made arrangements." Eli glanced at Rawls, baffled.
"Um." Rawls was at a loss for words. He said, " you're so careless. I forgot to tell you that I've already told battalion commander Kratos. If you're bad at this job, I'll definitely make you leave this Department.
"Planting magic herbs is more than just reading reports. I suggest you practice more instead of sitting here. I go out to the fields every day. What about you? "
???
Eli glanced at Rawls. 'I've been farming for more than a hundred years, and I still need you to teach me?'
Eli shrugged and left without a care.
Rona was also very surprised that their Minister was so brave, but he immediately followed.
Rawls' mouth kept twitching.
What do you mean by 'Oh'? Does he not care about me at all?
Beside him, Erdo also opened his mouth wide. However, when he saw Rawls looking over, he immediately lowered his head.
"Erdo, bring me all the information on the magic herb field today. I'm going to study it and redistribute the planting modules to increase the production."
The corner of Erdo's mouth twitched. Big brother, can you not work so hard? He had not left this place for more than a month.
"Hmph, when the production result is out, we'll know who's more suitable for this place," Rawls said angrily as he glanced at Eli's back.
How can you slack off at work?
This was a betrayal of the commander's trust in them.

The fields were located on both sides of the camp. Eli was on the east side, while Rawls was on the west side, so if there were no accidents, it was almost impossible for them to meet.
Rawls wanted to get rid of Eli, but of course, he would not just sit back and do nothing.
Planting magic herbs in the field was something that Eli was already very familiar with, so he spent half an hour planning things out again. Then, he instructed his subordinates on how to plant each magic herb and how to prepare specific nutrient solutions. All of this took a few hours.
After that, Eli completely stopped caring about the magic herb field. He only went to take a look occasionally. Rawls, on the other hand, went to the magic herb field often, constantly giving orders here and there, and so on.
On the other hand, Eli had also received news about Tijie. The new mage camp was located in the Chris mountains, far away from the Warlock camp. She had also brought along the magic potion that Eli had given her before she left, and she had advanced by one step, becoming the person in charge of a small department in the camp.
!!
Tijie was Eli's servant, but Eli's intention for her was to help her explore the current mage's world, so he still gave her some resources.
Of course, it was the same for Little Ross. If necessary, Eli would invest in him. Eli hoped that he could become stronger and climb higher in the shadow lizard sorcerer Academy.
Of course, this was only one of his investments. It didn't matter if it succeeded or not. He had invested in quite a number of people anyway. Even if one of them succeeded, Eli's cost would be recovered.
This was also one of the joys of being immortal.
He was just repeating what he had done in Bryne.
Speaking of raising them, of course, Eli wouldn't forget his two students, Vivika and David.
From what he could sense, David didn't even seem to be here at this time, and the path he chose seemed to be that of a mage. What's more, he had already broken through to the second circle and surpassed Eli.
On the other hand, Vivika was on the path of a bloodline warlock. She might still be on this continent, but she was not very close to Eli. She was currently at the level of the limit of the first circle and was about to break through.
As for the other information about the two, Eli had no idea.
As for whether they would meet in the future, it would depend on fate.
The two of them still had Eli's imprint in their minds. At the moment, Eli wasn't too worried, but he felt a little awkward. It felt like the two of them had already surpassed him.
"Sigh, but they're all going to die eventually!" He shook his head and hoped that they would be able to hold on until the day they met him.
…
In the blink of an eye, a month had passed.
Everything in the camp was slowly recovering, but there was a small problem in the magic herb field.
"What kind of insect is this?" Eli frowned as he looked at a small worm on the silent Crescent.
They were about the size of a fingernail and were blue and white in color with black spots all over them. They were clinging to the silent Crescent and destroying the magic plants.
This was a small bug that had suddenly appeared in the silent Crescent's plantation area yesterday. There were not many of them, but they were very harmful to the silent Crescent. They would constantly release a type of pheromone that destroyed the extraordinary characteristics of the plants.
"Sir, we found these bugs yesterday, but we've tried many methods to no avail. What's more troublesome is that these bugs reproduce very quickly." Rona said with an anxious expression.
The silent Crescent was the magic plant that grew the most in the magic herb field. He couldn't let anything happen to it.
"Okay, I know. Have you done the ultrasound, potions, and bloodline suppression? " Eli asked with a frown.
"Our potions aren't working yet, and these bugs seem to have a strong resistance to sound waves. The bloodline is useful, but it requires a bloodline of two circle and above to release its aura. Only then will these bugs leave slowly." Rona said.
"Is that so?" Eli frowned.
The reduction in the production of the magic plant would definitely have an impact on him. One had to know that as the Minister, one would be responsible for the production yield. Eli could stay at the field to chase the bugs away, but he didn't have the time.
"Okay, you guys use other methods first. I'll go back first." Frowning, Eli thought for a moment, then caught a few bugs and left.
On the other side.
Rawls also frowned and was at a loss for what to do with these insects.
This was not something he was good at!
He immediately looked for some of the warlocks with insect bloodlines he knew and began to discuss with them. However, these warlocks only studied their own bloodlines and did not know much about pests.
He walked around and found that not a single Warlock understood the bug.
"These people only study their own bloodline." Rawls finally let out a sigh helplessly.
It was so in the current mage's world.
After leaving another house, he came to the side of Eli's magic herb field by chance. This was also his first time here.
'Eh, he's actually made some adjustments too.' Rawls was surprised to find that the layout of the magic herb field was different from before. He thought that nothing had been done.
It wasn't like Eli was lazy!
Rawls acknowledged Eli slightly, but when he walked to the silent Crescent area and saw that only a few people were using human strength to drive the bugs away, his mouth twitched.
He had overestimated Eli.
"It's true. It looks like I'll be able to get rid of him when the time comes." Rawls actually relaxed a little. Since Eli was so lazy, it would be much easier to drive him away.
However, Rawls felt that the other magic plants were growing quite well.
Most of the plants here were two-year-old, so he couldn't see anything now.
After some observation, he left the place.
…
Eli brought the bug back to the laboratory.
Eli started a new experiment and began to study the bug in a targeted manner, preparing to solve the bug problem.
Eli's choice was to prepare to change it from reproduction. It was difficult to kill it directly, but it was still possible to make it lose its fertility.
In any case, the lifespan of this insect was very short, probably only one or two days.
Regarding similar research, Eli had done a lot of it back when he was researching bloodline creatures. Now, he was just simply trying to replicate his earlier experiments, so two days later, Eli made the potion.
He took the potions to the potions Department and asked Evena to have the staff produce a lot before returning to the potions field.
"Minister, will this really work?" Rona asked in confusion as he looked at the sprayed potion.
"You'll know tomorrow." A smile appeared on Eli's face.
The next day.
"Oh my God!!!" Rona knelt on the ground and picked up the bug corpses in the magic herb field, his face full of shock.
On the ground, there were many tiny insects, but these eggs hadn't hatched. There was no sign of life, and they were almost completely dead.
These were all caused by that magic potion. historical
"Boss, did you make this?" Rona said with a dumbfounded expression.
"What do you think?" Eli cast him a glance.
Rona was sincerely convinced.
…
Soon, the news about the magic potion gradually reached Rawls' ears.
However, he only knew that the magic potion Department had a magic potion that could cure the bug. He did not know who had concocted it, so he could only ask for some from Evena.
Instead of giving Rawls an answer that day, Evena came to ask Eli.
"Just give it to him. It doesn't matter." Eli did not care about these things.
Rawls was just like that. He was just a little narrow-minded. Eli didn't mind. He told Evena not to tell him that he was the one who concocted the potion.
Soon, Rawls also received the potion.
That night, he looked at the bottle of magic potion and revealed a deeply puzzled expression.
"How is this made? What's the principle behind it?" Rawls was dumbfounded, not understanding the principle at all.
After a simple analysis of the drug, he was even more confused.
"Which master made this?" Rawls shook his head, feeling that no one in the camp could develop a magic potion so quickly. It was simply ridiculous.
The others didn't seem to care, but only he knew how high the level of the person who made the potion was.
"It's a pity I don't know him. If only he were the one who taught me potionology." Rawls sighed with emotion, " no, am I qualified? "
This kind of potioneering master must be at least a second circle Warlock. The current warlocks' potioneering skills are really average.
Warlocks had given up too much, and potioneering had already declined to an unbelievable level. Official warlocks were not sensitive to certain elements due to their bloodlines, and there were very few Potioneers, and even fewer high-level Potioneers.
At the very least, there was no doubt that Eli was the strongest in the camp.
Just like that, Rawls used Eli's potion without his knowledge.
When he saw the effects the next day, he also sighed.
"It's too powerful."
He finally heaved a sigh of relief after the matter with the insects was resolved.
To him, as long as this matter was resolved, a year later would be the time for him to kick Eli out.
"How can there be two heads in one department?" Rawls sneered.
He just wanted to defeat Eli fair and square. It would be easy because he had been working so hard.
Just like that, Erdo passed the busiest year of his life.
Watching Rawls diligently handle the potions and dispel the bugs in the herb field every day, Eli heard about it and flipped over from his recliner.
Rawls could do whatever he wanted.
Eli had done his part.
Rawls was very hardworking, but he was a warlock. Although he had done some research, compared to a warlock, like Eli, he lacked practice. There were some things that he did, based on his experience, without understanding the reason. There was no comparison.
It could be said that this was a match between Rawls and Eli. It was also a battle of thought between Magi and warlocks.
Warlocks who had lost their yearning for the truth relied on excavating bloodlines to become stronger. However, for mages, knowledge, and truth were their weapons, and potioneering was one of them.
"I really miss the Mage world of the past!"
In the office, Eli looked at Rawls, who had gone out again, and sighed. Then, he turned his body over again.
It felt so comfortable to recline at work.

145 Numb
A year passed in the blink of an eye.
To Eli, this didn't mean anything special, but to Rawls, he was feeling complicated and excited.
After two years of growth, the latest batch of magic plants in the magic herb field had basically matured and could be picked. He also thought that this was a good time to chase away Eli.
"Such a person is too weak." Rawls shook his head. He was very displeased with Eli.
Although he had never gone to take a look at Eli's magic herb field again, it was clear from Eli's carefree life every day that he didn't put too much effort into it. He wasn't like him, who was conscientious.
!!
"Tomorrow is the time for the report. At that time, I'll definitely make a complaint in front of battalion commander Kratos." Rawls looked at the production report and revealed a smile.
He was very confident.
…
The next day.
Eli and Rawls arrived at Kratos 'office.
In fact, every department had to report to Kratos about the development of the Department, and the special magic plant Department had to make a summary of the growth of the magic plants every two years.
Coming here again, Eli didn't feel anything at all. He was holding a document in his hand, while Rawls, who was standing straight beside him, had a confident smile.
"Tell me, how have you been these two years?" Kratos asked with a smile.
Both Eli and Rawls were his new generation of subordinates, so it was hard for him to say which one he was biased towards. However, as for Rawls, a Warlock with a second-circle bloodline, although he had some minor flaws, he was serious in his work, and Kratos had high hopes for him.
"My Lord, this year has been very smooth for the magical plant Department, especially for the part where I manage. The output of all the magical plants has increased to a large extent, among which the silent Crescent has increased by ten percent compared to the year before last. Other crops such as sun Corolla, snake fruit grass, and the like have also increased to different degrees." Rawls said proudly.
"The specific values are silent Crescent…" historical
Rawls spoke with fervor and assurance while holding the document.
Kratos also nodded in satisfaction and praised, "Rawls, good job."
He was indeed very satisfied. This was the highest production in the camp in the past ten years. Compared to the year before last, the production had increased by about 20%. Although it did not seem much, it was already very good.
"This is what I should do. I go to the magic herb field every day and use many methods. I often work late into the night." Roars revealed a smile and expressed his efforts.
It was said that hard work was more valuable when it was seen by the boss.
"Eli, what about you? These two years, I think you've been slacking. Maybe the magic potion Department is used to that kind of life. You can't be like this. The magic plant Department needs people who are willing to do hard work." Rawls said with a smile.
As for his heart, he was already thinking about what he should say later to get rid of Eli.
Eli: "…"
"How about you, Herman?" Kratos asked after dealing with Rawls.
"The production of my field is a bit lower than expected," Eli said.
"Oh, by how much?" Kratos asked curiously.
"40%!"
Pfft!
Rawls covered his mouth and laughed in his heart, but he apologized, "I'm sorry. I didn't expect you to be able to be so bad."
"Indeed, it's a little bad." Kratos also frowned. It was 40% less than in previous years. What was this? Although there was an insect disaster last year, it shouldn't be like this.
"It's indeed a little bad. I originally thought that the production would increase by at least 60%, but it's only this little. It's indeed much worse than I expected." Eli nodded in agreement.
Kratos was speechless.
Rawls was speechless.
"What did you just say? Increase production?" Rawls exclaimed with a confused look.
"That's right. This year, the silent Crescent… The scattered parts should be a little more than 40%, and after rounding it up, it should be 40%." Eli looked at them strangely. "Aren't we talking about the same thing?"
On the side, Kratos 'mouth twitched.
What shocked him, even more, was that Eli had an increased production!
40%?
How the f*ck did he do it?!
"How did you do it?" Kratos was in disbelief.
"The previous planting methods and processes were too crude, " Eli said curiously. "I've only improved a little."
Kratos took a deep breath, feeling that there was a generation gap between him and Eli.
Crude?
Kratos thought for a moment. Their planting method seemed to have been updated thirty years ago. He wondered who taught them at that time, but they had been using it all the time. Was it very crude? Kratos began to doubt his knowledge.
"40%, 40% …" Rawls still muttered.
"No, I think we should go and see it in person. I don't believe it." Rawls shook his head and said.
An increase in production by 40% was too ridiculous.
He had worked hard and checked daily in exchange for this result, but someone suddenly told him that he had been sticking to bad methods and that he was not even as efficient as Eli. It was a little unacceptable to him.
"Hmm, now that Rawls has said so, let's take a look over there." Kratos didn't quite believe it, either.
Eli nodded. So be it.
Growing magic potions was also a type of knowledge that needed to be adjusted at any time. It would be a bit of a dream to rely on a single method to guarantee a high yield. This group of people had dug their heels to the point of becoming fools.
Soon, Kratos, Eli, and Rawls arrived at Eli's farm.
"Minister, ah, battalion commander." Paul happened to be there and exclaimed when he saw the three of them.
"Yes, we came with our battalion commander to take a look." Eli nodded, indicating for him to do his thing.
Kratos and Rawls didn't have the time to pay attention to him because they were looking at the magic herb field in front of them in silence. The once sparse silent Crescent grew like wheat, and so did the other magic herbs.
What surprised them, even more, was that the overall quality of the magical plants was also very high.
"Not bad, not bad at all." Kratos nodded with a smile.
The magic herb field was considered his property, and he could also get a lot of profits from it. Of course, Eli would also get some of the profit.
At this point, Rawls could no longer speak. He just kept taking deep breaths, feeling a bit uncomfortable.
His hard work was not as good as the one occupying the recliner daily.
This caused his worldview to collapse.
"Hey, wait a minute." Suddenly, Rawls seemed to have seen something and walked towards a magic herb field.
"This place has also been invaded by those bugs," Rawls confirmed.
"Yes." Naturally, Eli knew what he was talking about.
The magic plants that had been gnawed on by the seed would generally have a little trace, and their medicinal properties would also be reduced.
Kratos looked at this scene with interest. He knew about the bugs, but the problem was solved quickly, so he didn't pay attention to it.
Was there something else that he didn't know?
"Yes, if I remember correctly, when I came here, there were more insects here than there were in my place. I solved the pest issue after using the magic potion department's magic potion, but what about you? You must have used the same potion. But how did you get the potion before me?" Ross stood up and looked at Eli with a serious face.
"Did you deliberately collude with the potions Department? I remember that you were the Deputy Minister there in the past." Rawls looked at Eli with a sharp gaze.
The scene was solemn.
Eli looked at them, a little speechless, not really wanting to explain.
"Uh, but the potion was developed by department head Herman!" Suddenly, someone at the side spoke up. It was Rona, who had been following not far away.
"What?" Rawls suddenly broke free and looked at Rona.
"That potion was developed by the Minister and then sent to the magic potion Department. Otherwise, you wouldn't have gotten the potions in the end, Minister Rawls." Rona hesitated for a moment, but he still said it. He felt that his leader couldn't be slandered like this.
"You're the one who created that potion?!" Rawls couldn't take it anymore and looked at Eli.
Eli didn't say anything. He just nodded and looked at Rawls as if he was looking at an idiot.
Rawls: …
Why didn't you say so earlier?
Kratos also came to a sudden realization. Then, he looked at Eli with admiration. Although this colleague of his was only at the first circle, he was indeed a man of great potential. It seemed that he had to pay more attention to him in the future.
"Eli!"
Rawls still wanted to say something but was stopped by Kratos, who said, "That's it. Rawls, I have to criticize you. Eli is such a good example, how could you not learn from him?"
Rawls almost spurted out a mouthful of blood.
Role model? He went to work once every three days, and when he came, all he did was lay down on a recliner.
He suddenly felt that the world was dark.
"Sigh, I've lost this time." Rawls looked at Eli and sighed.
"When were we in a competition?" Eli was baffled.
Rawls became stunned. Eli wasn't even paying attention to him. He covered his chest and moved two steps back.
For the first time in his life, he felt that the world was gray.
On the way back, Rawls walked at the back with his head lowered. Kratos and Eli talked with fervor and assurance. Kratos first shared his own life story. Then he started to talk to Eli about potions. The main thing was that he really didn't understand potions.
Back at the tower, Kratos looked at Eli and praised, "Herman, you have to teach Rawls. He might not understand these things."
Eli nodded.
Rawls closed his eyes. If not for Eli, he would have contributed the highest magical plant production in the past few decades. However, his world collapsed.
Simply put, he was numb.

146 Curse Sorcery
Rawls left in a daze.
He looked at Eli's back and sighed, but then he got excited again. He silently swore that he would surpass Eli and give him a hard blow.
"Just you wait, Hmph." Rawls snorted as he left.
On the other hand, Eli sensed Rawls' voice behind him. He glanced at him, rolled his eyes, and turned to leave.
The reporting of the magic herb field had ended, and the magic plants had begun to be sold. In the process, Eli had also begun to sneak in a portion of the magic plants he had planted in the arcane realm. To be honest, this portion was not any less than the ones in the camp, so Eli had only sold a small portion, and he would slowly sell them when he got familiar with the process.
Kratos also gave him some benefits. For the first time, the number of magic stones in Eli's storage had reached a terrifying number of 5000, which was a lot to him.
However, even though he had gained a lot, he had also consumed a lot of magic stones, especially in the experiments on devouring power. He had to spend at least a few hundred magic stones every month. This was only possible now because he would have gone bankrupt in the past.
In the process, Rawls also checked on Eli to see if he had taken any departmental profits for himself. After all, many ministers used to do this.
But after checking, he realized that Eli was really ridiculously clean.
Eli didn't take anything from the Department. This ruined his plan of using this thing to kick out Eli. What made him even more aggrieved was that he still had to learn how to grow magical plants from Eli. After he heard about the complicated process, he was a little convinced. He didn't lose for no reason.
Of course, this was another matter. He still considered Eli an eyesore.
He still wanted to chase Eli away, but he didn't have the chance. He was helpless against a clean citizen. How could he be so rule-abiding?
And when Eli heard about this, he smiled.
…
Five years passed in the blink of an eye.
As usual, Eli headed to the magical plant Department first.
As he walked, he could hear a lot of gossips, most of which was about the shadow lizard sorcerer Academy, and about the battalion commander, as if something had happened.
Filled with doubts, Eli came to the office.
"Rona, what happened recently?" Eli asked Deputy Minister Rona.
"Uh, did you hear about it too, Minister?" Rona stood up straight. Compared to five years ago, there were more white strands in his hair.
"I heard that a large mage ruin was recently discovered nearby. A group of shadow lizard Warlock Academy students went there, but many people died, and a few were trapped.
"After that, the Academy ordered battalion commander Kratos to go and rescue the people, but the battalion commander refused. After the people from the academy died, Kratos sent people to explore the ruins and brought back the things." Rona said in a low voice when he saw that there was no one around.
"I see!" Eli furrowed his brows. He had been in the secret plane all year round and would only come out once every few days. This incident happened while he was inside the secret plane.
"See, someone from the Academy came to take the things away yesterday, but the situation was very tense." Rona spread out his hands and said helplessly.
"They've taken the stuff?!" Eli hissed, feeling a little pity.
He was just about to say that he was going to take a look and see if there was anything that could be used, but he was happy for nothing.
"Alright, I'm just here for a bit. It's time to go." After briefly looking through the work for the past few days, Eli turned around and left.
The next destination was the mage relics Management Department.
"Take care, Minister." Rona sent Eli out of the Department.
About ten minutes later, Eli arrived at his other department.
"Head of Department, there are some of your favorite books and items recently. Do you want to take a look? " Paul asked in the Department.
"New things?" Eli was surprised.
"Yeah, it's from the ruins nearby," Paul replied.
"Didn't they all get taken away?" There was a strange expression on Eli's face.
"uh, Sir, the valuable things were indeed taken away, but the rest was sent here because they are garbage." Paul accidentally blurted out what he was thinking.
"Take me there." Eli's interest was aroused.
"Yes."
Very quickly, they arrived at the warehouse. Opening it, Eli walked in.
At the end of the warehouse, there was a pile of new books. His eyes lit up when he saw them, and he quickly walked over.
There were about a dozen new books, and they were all very new. Although there were some traces of history, there were no problems with their preservation, book covers, or other aspects.
He opened one.
"a preliminary understanding of curse sorcery "
Looking at the words on the first page, Eli sucked in a breath of cold air. It was the knowledge that he had never understood before. How was this trash? This was a treasure!
After flipping through a few pages, Eli was certain that this was new knowledge, and he asked Paul to leave first.
Eli began to read the book seriously again. Time passed by slowly, and he had gained an understanding and learning of the terrifying black sorcery known as curse sorcery. He was even more surprised.
According to the book, curse sorcery had three main bodies.
The target, the medium, and the final price.
The target was easy to understand. It was the person who was the curse's target. The medium was an item related to the target. Of course, it could also be an incorporeal thing like a name. However, if one chose this medium, one had to be prepared for failure. Of course, it was a different story if one was powerful.
The price was the most important to the caster.
To a certain extent, The curse school was related to one's fate. There was always a price to pay. Most dark mages would cultivate parasites in their bodies to offset the price or other methods. Therefore, even dark mages rarely used curses.
It was truly a spell that would harm one's own self even if one wanted to harm the enemy.
However, Eli was still very happy. After all, it was new knowledge, and it was free. If it were in the past, no one would just leave it here.
Respect for knowledge was the education that every mage received.
In the past, Saleen's notes had also emphasized this many times that it had an important impact on Eli.
And so, Eli went home with the books.
Two months later.
Eli took a deep breath and placed the last book on curse sorcery to the side, feeling that he had become stronger again.
"Since I've learned it, I should put it into practice." Pursing his lips, Eli thought.
But who should I target to test the waters?
Eli's eyes lit up. 'I got it.'
Eli sat at the side, and instantly, under the influence of his mental force, runes appeared on the ground, one after another. Large shadows appeared as well, and they emitted all sorts of strange auras.
"Darkness that is deeper than darkness, strange mist that is more violent than poison. Today, I, Eli Lucifer, will use one year of my life force as the price to curse Rawls Clint. I want him to…"
Eli closed his eyes and started casting a spell. The price was his life. Thankfully, he was immortal. As for his target, it was Rawls.
The curse had been established.
…
At the same time.
Rawls was currently standing in the magic herb field, looking at the large magic herb field in front of him with a smile. The production had indeed increased a lot after learning.
Just as he was about to leave, the ground in front of him suddenly caved in.
Rawls widely opened his eyes as he fell in. Closely after that, the ground collapsed once again. Rawls directly supported himself with his four limbs.
Rawls took a deep breath and looked into the depression. It turned out to be a nest of snakes. A dozen venomous demon snakes from the zero ring hissed and entangled themselves.
"That was close!" Rawls felt his forehead oozing cold sweat, "there's a nest of demon snakes here."
Just as he was about to use the momentum to get up, a huge bird caught a wild boar in the sky. Suddenly, the wild boar struggled and slowly fell to the ground like a cannonball.
"What?" Rawls was baffled and looked over from the corner of his eye.
Pig?
A pig in the sky?
Rawls' eyes were wide open, but the wild boar had already arrived and smashed into his back. The damage wasn't great, but with this little force, the soil in front of him changed again.
"No!" Rawls let out a wail and was then carried by the wild boar into the snake's nest. At the same time, the ground caved in again and buried him.
The next day, when Eli saw Rawls again, he was in the Department.
Looking at Rawls' front body, which was swollen and covered in several wounds, and his face covered in bruises, Eli laughed.
"Hmm," Rawls said in a muffled way.
It would be nothing if it were just snakes from the zero circle. However, he had been buried seven to eight meters deep. The venomous snakes, in particular, would drill and bite anywhere they wanted.
Rawls recalled what happened yesterday as he quivered all over.
The mental damage was far greater than the physical damage.
"Rawls, this is my medicament. It's very effective." Eli threw a potion over.
Rawls 'eyes widened. He didn't expect that Eli would take the initiative to give him the potion.
Why did he feel a little touched?
Why do I feel like Eli is a good person?
"Thank you!" Rawls said while bearing the pain.
"You're welcome…" Eli held back his laughter and left the Department. He burst out laughing. He had no choice. He really wanted to laugh.
The effect of this curse sorcery was much better than what Eli had imagined.
Eli sucked in a breath of cold air.
He felt that he might have really dug up a treasure.
Should I try again?
However, looking at Rawls, who was quivering, Eli shook his head and turned around to leave. It was not good to hurt the fragile Rawls in such a way. Therefore, he turned around and left.
Rawls, on the other hand, was looking at Eli's back as he left. The potion he had just taken seemed to be working. The swelling was rapidly decreasing, and the poison was also dissolving. This potion was probably very precious.
"He's a good person," Rawls commented.historical

When Rawls sighed with emotion, some people arrived at the camp.
"Kratos, you've gone too far this time." A one-circle Ultimate Warlock looked at Kratos and said angrily.
He was wearing black clothes and a belt made of snakeskin. He had a long face and black eyes that looked like a man-eating lizard, and he was staring at Kratos.
Kratos nodded but did not make a move.
The newcomer's name was Mike Jalger. Although he was only a peak first circle Warlock, he was sent here as a representative of the shadow Lizard Wizard Academy. He was also sent here to supervise the camp, so he couldn't make a move.
"Yes, yes." Kratos nodded.
Mike's mouth twitched, and he reached out his hand, even wanting to hit Kratos, but then he retracted it.
He had no choice. As long as he didn't make a move, he would be fine. If he did, he would probably be killed.
"Heh, Kratos, the Academy has seen what you've done. Besides, you fought passively with the foreign Warlock last time and gave a sloppy report. Do you think I didn't see it?" Mike sneered.
"Don't think that you're so great just because your teacher is the Academy's Dean. He's already old, and he'll be replaced next month." Mikel glanced at him calmly.
He had come here this time to see if he could occupy this place.
"Oh, I still have something to do. You can go first." Kratos glanced at him calmly, and Mike felt a chill in his heart and turned to leave.
After Mike left, Kratos shook his head.
"I still need time. Fifteen years should be enough."
As for Mike, as long as he didn't go too far, he could do anything. But if he went too far, he would let him know what a second circle warlock was.
…
A month passed in the blink of an eye.
Ever since Mike had arrived, the camp had changed quite a bit.
Mike didn't come alone this time. He brought more than a dozen of his men, including five or six official Wizards.
Mike wanted to take over the camp, and he had done a lot of work for that.
Potion Department.
"How about it? If you follow me, I can give you more benefits. The conditions can be discussed." Mike looked at Evelina across from him. Every time he looked at her, there was a hint of greed in his eyes.
"I'm sorry, please leave." Evena frowned.
"Don't be so heartless. As far as I know, you've always been short of money. Here are 50 mid-grade magic stones." Mike took out a bag, revealing the shiny magic stones inside.
Mid-grade magic stones were much higher than low-grade magic stones in terms of magic content and quality, so the current market ratio was generally 100. The same was true for high-grade magic stones, which were equivalent to 100 mid-grade magic stones. However, there were very few of them, and almost no circulation was made.
Taking out 5000 low-grade magic stones at once, Mike could be said to be quite generous. It was obvious that he wasn't acting alone, and there was a force supporting him in this.
The camp that Kratos managed was the largest camp of the shadow lizard sorcerer Academy, and the annual profit was very high. The Academy wanted to consume it.
"Consider it," Mike said with a smile. Evena was so fond of gambling that she often borrowed money, so she definitely needed it.
"Get lost!"
But to his surprise, Evena only said calmly. As for the magic stone, she picked it up and threw it out of the window behind her.
"My magic stones!" Mike's eyes widened, and he immediately went out to pick up the magic stones.
A few minutes later, he looked at the bag that was missing a few mid-grade magic stones. He gritted his teeth and left. It didn't matter. If he couldn't convince Evena, there were others.
Next, the magic plant division. historical
So, Mike went to find Eli first, but after seeing that he hadn't found him for five days, Mike left with a twitching mouth.
He found Rawls.
"I'm sorry, but I refuse," Rawls said righteously.
"Although I'm also the Minister of the potions Department in name, in fact, Eli is the one who manages this place. Kratos trusts him more, so there's no point in you recruiting me."
"Alright," Mike sighed. The people in this Department were a little hard to deal with!
"What if you're the manager?" Suddenly, Mike asked a question.
"I can consider it," Rawls just said calmly.
"Okay, I got it." Mike nodded.
He finally had some gains, but he didn't plan to do anything about it. He would ask the other departments first.
Soon, Mike's recruitment seemed to have yielded results.
Slowly, people secretly accepted Mike's recruitment, and the team was still expanding because everyone knew that behind Mike stood his teacher, the soon-to-be Dean of the shadow lizard sorcerer Academy.
And three months later.
The remaining departments were the potions Department, the magic plants Department, the mage relic Management Department, and two other departments.
"Cole, I want you to go find Eli. How did the talk go? "
In a room, Mike asked a first-circle Warlock beside him.
"My Lord, I've met him, but he didn't talk to me at all." The first circle wizard named Cole said to Mike with a sigh.
"I see!" Mike nodded. The other two departments were almost done as well. At the moment, only Eli and Evena were still hesitating.
It was difficult for them to convince Evena because she had been with Kratos since she was a child, but they didn't expect that Eli would be like this too, which put them in a difficult position.
"Forget it. I'll go find him myself." Shaking his head, Mike prepared to visit Eli personally.
…
The next day.
Mike had been waiting at the door.
As time passed, the door finally opened, and Eli walked out.
He glanced at Mikel and continued walking.
"Warlock Eli, I think we can have a good chat," Mike asked with a smile.
"There's nothing much to say. Can you let me continue to manage these two departments in the future? " Eli was walking on the road.
Mike followed Eli, but when he heard what Eli said, he was stunned. They had quite a number of people too, so how could they give up power to Eli after taking over the camp, and two departments at that?
"I'm sorry, but we can't do that. But we can give you other benefits, whether it's bloodline or magic stones. Of course, women are also fine." Mike probed.
"Trash," Eli said calmly.
To him, these things were of no use except for magic crystals.
The corners of Mikel's mouth twitched, and he looked at Eli for a long time without saying anything.
"I'm sorry. Don't look for me again." He had already arrived at the Department.
Mike watched as Eli swaggered in. His mouth twitched, and his eyes flashed with a murderous glint.
A first-circle warlock was a little too arrogant.
Even without turning his head, Eli could already sense a thick killing intent.
It wasn't strong, but it made Eli feel a little dangerous.
He sighed and walked in.
He had just managed to stabilize his condition, but this was the result. He was helpless!
Whether it was the Department of Magic plants or the Department of magic relics, they were all things he needed right now. If he left this place, the speed of his growth and other progress would drop rapidly, and that was something he didn't want to face.
So, it seemed that he had to think of a way.
…
"Mike went to find Herman, but he rejected him."
A warlock reported to Kratos in his office.
"Well, I see. I know. You can leave first." Kratos nodded, and the warlock also walked out.
As the door closed, he walked to the window and sighed.
"My teacher isn't dead yet, but so many people already can't wait. I didn't expect that the people standing on my side would be these few people.
"Evena, Rawls, Herman…"
There were only seven or eight of them, but there were dozens of people in the camp management.
"Forget it. I can make up my mind this way, but not now." Kratos said seriously. "It looks like I can only get rid of Mike. This guy is a first-circle Warlock. I haven't seen such an idiot in a long time. He's just a pawn."
He immediately walked out of the door.
He had already found out where Mike lived, on a small hill outside the camp. Tonight, he would just kill him.
…
At night.
Kratos left the wizard Tower quietly.
"Darkness deeper than darkness, a strange mist more violent than poison. Today, I, Elie Lucifer, will use five hundred years of my life as the price to curse Mike Jalger. I want him dead."
On the other side, a curse that used tremendous life force as a sacrifice was in progress. At the cost of five hundred years of life force, Eli began to curse Mike.
From the moment he revealed his killing intent, Mike was someone that Eli had to kill.
Unfortunately, his current level was limited, and 500 years of lifespan was already his limit. Otherwise, he would have to use at least 1000 years of life force to cast a wave of curses.
Eli was also looking forward to seeing how the curse would turn out.
As the curse mark slowly disappeared, Eli's life force instantly dropped by 500 years. His body instantly began to wither, his hair turned white, and wrinkles began to appear on his skin. He instantly turned into an old man that was about to wither.
However, the white light pillar in his body was still bright, and his life force was slowly being replenished.
Eli's condition was gradually recovering.
After half an hour, Eli felt a little better.
"Damn, I've consumed too much at once. I almost couldn't make up for it. Fortunately, my current limit is 100 years of life force." Fear still lingered in Eli's heart. For a moment just now, he even thought that he was really going to die.
It was a little sloppy.
This was also the first time he had offered 500 years of his lifespan as a price. In the past, he had done weaker curses, but it seemed like he should do them less in the future.
"I'm already in such a sorry state. I wonder how Mike is doing."
Eli stood up.
Using 500 years of his life to curse a first-circle Warlock.
Eli had no doubt that Mike would die, but how would he die?

148 Meteor Shower
On the other side.
Shadows appeared around Kratos as he flew toward Mike's area. In less than a minute, he arrived at a mountain not far from there.
On a big tree on the mountain.
Hiding in the shadows, Kratos' eyes were fixed on a building on the opposite side of the mountain. For now, all the warlocks from the shadow lizard sorcerer Academy lived here, including their leader, Mike.
"Sigh, you're the one who asked for it. You can't blame anyone else." Kratos shook his head, and the shadows around him bared their fangs like man-eating beasts.
!!
"Eh, why is it so bright today?"
Suddenly, Kratos found that there was something wrong with the light today, and he looked up at the sky.
In the pitch-black night sky, the stars were embellished. One could see a flash of light, leaving a trail behind. It was a meteor shower.
"It's a rare celestial phenomenon. It's beautiful, but it's too short." Kratos sighed and suddenly found a bright spot in the meteor shower.
The light spot was like a small fish that had accidentally entered the territory of a shark. It dodged left and right, avoiding the meteors. However, there were too many meteors. After more than ten minutes, as more meteors appeared, the light spot had nowhere to escape.
Finally, under Kratos' dumbfounded gaze, the light spot hit a huge meteor. Then, a light spot bloomed, and the meteor broke into many fragments, shooting in all directions. historical
"It appears to be falling toward the endless sea." Kratos wasn't fully familiar with the world.
The scene he saw today had truly opened his eyes.
He wondered what that light spot was. It seemed to be an object that entered from the outside universe.
Kratos shook his head and was about to continue his journey. However, after taking a few steps, he glanced at the sky and retreated quickly instead of advancing.
In Kratos' vision, the fragments of the broken meteor were actually flying in his direction.
"How is this possible?!" Kratos retreated rapidly.
In the sky.
The fragment of the meteor left a long trail of flames behind it as it drew a bright line in the dark night sky. With a terrifying shriek, it slowly approached the area.
Kratos retreated quickly with a look of disbelief on his face. The meteorite fragment was really approaching, and if he was not wrong, it would fall on the mountain where his target was.
"It can't be." Kratos was a little dumbfounded.
Even if this was only a fragment of the meteor, the power granted by its speed was something that even a third-circle warlock might not be able to withstand. Would the meteor really fall here?
Time would give the answer.
Three seconds later!
Accompanied by a terrifying shriek, the fragments of the meteor streaked across the sky and finally arrived here, and then coincidentally smashed straight into Mike's area.
With the sound of an explosion, a small mushroom cloud of flames rose. In an instant, Mike's camp was torn in half. As for the people inside, they didn't even feel it before they were turned to dust in the explosion.
Kratos was dumbfounded. Although he was a few kilometers away, he could feel the scorching temperature. Even he might not be able to survive the crash.
"Is this… settled?" Kratos said in an uncertain tone.
On the other side, the huge explosion and the rising clouds of fire woke up everyone in the camp.
Everyone walked out and looked at this terrifying scene in shock. The power of nature was so terrifying.
And all the people Mike had gathered looked at the place where the fire cloud had erupted, and their mouths twitched.
"It can't be."
"That seems to be Mike's camp."
"How is this possible?"
Everyone felt that they had planned their betrayal a little too early, but who would have thought that such an absurd thing would happen? Did a meteor shower destroy the mage's world?
Eli was also standing on the roof, watching this scene from afar.
Just now, he suddenly felt a violent tremor. Through the detection means around him, he saw the ridiculous scene. To be honest, Eli didn't expect the curse to be so evil.
A lifespan of 500 years was the normal limit of a second-circle mage's life, so Eli had basically sacrificed the whole lifespan of a second-circle mage.
"Sigh, what a pity." Eli shook his head and returned.
500 years of his life had been taken away in an instant. Even for him, it was really painful. In the future, he would probably need to be more careful with his curses.
He just didn't know what that light spot was.
…
At the same time.
"F*ck me!"
In a huge flying instrument, the four rings celestial wizard Constantine was dumbfounded.
He was really in deep trouble.
He was one of the Magi who left with the other Magi. He was a 4th circle Mage, and he came back to do something. He didn't expect to encounter such a huge meteor shower.
What was even more unfortunate was that he was in an awkward position with several latitude gaps. He did not dare to attack and could only dodge. In the end, he was still shot down.
"Damn it!" At this moment, Constantine had already entered the Mage world or the current knight world. He could feel that his life force was being drained three to four times faster.
F * ck!
This was not the worst thing. His aircraft was severely damaged. Without it, he would not dare to come back to the Magus world, even with his current state. This involved a catastrophe that would last for thousands of years.
"Damn it, I have to land by force. The central continent is the best, but it's too far away. It seems like I have to land on another small continent." Constantine looked down. There was another small continent in the endless sea. In the end, he chose that place to land.
"I need to fix the flying device. But I doubt there are enough resources on this continent. Plus, there are still those warlocks who are now xenophobic in the central continent." The corner of Constantine's mouth twitched.
"Damn it. How did I encounter a meteor shower?!"
Constantine fell rapidly. He couldn't understand why he was so unlucky.
…
No one knew about Constantine's sorrow.
But Kratos knew that he had to take responsibility for this matter.
After all, Mike had died in his area, so he had to give an explanation. In fact, he was going to kill Mike and use his connections, but he didn't expect this to happen before he could do anything.
But fortunately, no one could do anything to him when it came to meteor showers.
However, he still wrote a letter and received a reply very quickly.
"As long as I'm here, no one can touch you."
Kratos sighed when he saw his teacher's letter.
After burning the letter, he turned around and returned to his room.
…
"Is it that ridiculous?"
On the other side, Rawls also found out about this matter the next day.
His face was filled with disbelief.
What was this? The meteor fell and just happened to kill the people of the shadow Sorcerer Academy. This was too unlucky.
He wanted to see if he could get rid of Eli with this, but it seemed like he was overthinking it.
"Forget it. I'd better go back to work." Ross sighed, looked at the work manual that Eli gave him, and planted the plants according to the instructions.
He would consider defeating Eli later.
…
Ten years later.
In Eli's laboratory.
Eli looked at the fluctuations of the eighteen segments of devouring power that he had recorded, and his heart was filled with joy.
He had finally recorded everything down. The only pity was that he had only recorded it down. If he were to copy it through the spell model, it would be another huge task.
This job took a long time to handle by himself, and it took up a lot of time.
"Sigh, if only I had a mage organization under my control. I could spread it out and let my subordinates help me deal with the mundane jobs." Eli shook his head.
He had half a mage camp under his command.
This was thanks to Tijie. She was already at the middle stage of the first circle and was the Vice battalion commander of the mage camp. It was a pity that Eli had no time to spare. He had wanted to go and take a look, but he had no choice.
Of course, Tijie wasn't the strongest. In fact, she should be the weakest under Eli at the moment. Vivika had already broken through to the second circle, while David had long since attained the second circle. Vivika seemed to be in the bloodline tower's influence all this while, while Eli had no idea where David was.
As for the bloodline tower, Eli had also inquired about it before, but perhaps because the level of the camp was too low, he only knew that it seemed to be a major force on the West Coast, but he didn't know exactly how big it was.
There was also Ross, who had also become a sorcerer-apprentice, and because of his outstanding talent, he was the Dean's disciple. He was the future hope of the Academy, and had the potential to inherit the Academy in the future.
Of course, five years ago, his grandfather had passed away and sent a few hundred magic stones to Eli as a reward for saving Ross. He was a very particular old man.
Of course, there was also Eli himself.
Elemental essence conversion 56%, mental force 60 points, bloodline compatibility 54%. As a mage, he could barely be considered late-stage, while warlocks were mid-stage. He was already very familiar with all kinds of techniques, and his combat power was many times stronger than before.
There was also the curse sorcery, which was a killer move.
There was also the work in the Department. The magical plants Department was now completely under Eli's jurisdiction. Every year, they provided a large amount of resources to him, and he would also sell the magical plants in his secret plane. The resources had always been abundant. There was also the mage relics disposal Department, which brought a lot of new knowledge to him, constantly supplementing his new knowledge.
"I really hope this will continue!" Eli sighed.
Such a peaceful life was what he yearned for!
At this moment, the token on his waist trembled. He opened it.
"Come to the wizard Tower."
It was signed by Kratos.

After receiving Kratos' message, Eli quickly arrived at the mage Tower.
However, when he reached the door, he realized that he wasn't alone. Rawls and Evena were also there.
"Herman, Rawls, you've been called here too." Evena's ears perked up in surprise.
"Uh, indeed. It seems like there's something important." Rawls nodded and subconsciously glanced at Eli, the guy who was almost equivalent to his superior.
Ever since ten years ago, Eli had been holding Rawls down.
Rawls tried his best; however, he still didn't change his status. As a result, he had long been numb.
"Don't think too much. Let's go in." Eli said as he looked at the two of them. The people there were all the core figures that Kratos trusted. It seemed like something big had happened.
Walking through the door, he saw Kratos sitting on a chair.
At this moment, he was frowning, as if something was bothering him.
He only relaxed a lot when he saw that it was Eli and the others. He stood up and walked outside as he said, "Let's talk next door."
"Alright," he said. The three of them said in unison and followed Kratos.
Soon, they were brought to another room. As soon as they sat down, they saw Kratos cover the glass and activate several spell formations.
Seeing that Kratos was so cautious, Eli had a bad feeling. Something big might have happened.
"Don't worry. It's just that no one else can know about what happened today except you guys." Kratos shook his head and looked at them.
Their eyes met, and the atmosphere was heavy.
"My Lord, just tell me what happened." The first one to speak was Evena.
"Actually, I only have one purpose for calling you to come here today. The war is about to begin." Kratos threw a bomb.
"War?"
The three of them looked at each other. Evena let out a cry of surprise. Rawls also stood up immediately. Eli's pupils also trembled in disbelief.
War?
With whom?
The shadow lizard sorcerer Academy was the only one nearby.
"Boss, what war?" Rawls asked.
"The shadow lizard sorcerer Academy and the blood Alliance." Kratos answered.
"Everyone knows about the shadow lizard, so I won't say it. The blood Alliance is another force nearby. They are the ones who are going to attack the Academy this time. They want to take this prosperous area for themselves."
"Then, boss…?"
At this moment, the three of them already felt that something was wrong.
How did Kratos know that the war was coming? Obviously, it was not the news from the shadow lizard Warlock Academy. Otherwise, how could they not take any action?
"This time, I'm on the side of the Blood Alliance," Kratos glanced at the three of them and said.
The three of them were at a loss for words.
Kratos laughed when he saw the three of them dumbfounded. However, he quickly calmed down and smiled mysteriously at them."I'm just joking. We're on our side."
?
Before the three of them could come to their senses, they heard Kratos' puzzling words again.
"Our side?" Eli asked.
"That's right!" Kratos nodded and looked out of the window. "The blood Alliance knows that I have a missing sister. They told me that as long as I join them, I can get the specific information about her, but they underestimate me too much."
Kratos' face gradually became determined. "How can there be such a coincidence? I don't believe it. They definitely don't know where she is. If they did, they wouldn't have just given me vague information.
"Besides, I, Kratos, have always relied on my own strength. Since they want to use me, I will use this chance to use them.
"The two forces were at loggerheads with each other, and I wanted to carve out a path for myself. My teacher and I had planned this for a long time. Since I couldn't do what I wanted with my own strength, I would have to rely on more people."
Kratos' tone became more and more impassioned, and his eyes shone brightly. Eli also seemed to vaguely understand what Kratos wanted to do.
"Rawls, Herman, Evena, do you understand what I'm going to do?" he asked. At this moment, Kratos slowly walked to the chair, sat down, and asked with a smile.
"You want to leave this place?" Rawls frowned.
"Kratos probably wants to gain some benefits from this." Evena had a different answer.
"Wrong," Kratos shook his head one by one.
"Kratos probably wants to establish a new power in this chaotic situation." Eli was also surprised by Kratos' thoughts.
"hahaha, Herman, as expected of you. You've always had your own ideas." Kratos didn't deny it this time. He nodded and said, "What I want to do is to establish a new order on the corpse of the shadow lizard sorcerer Academy." historical
Hearing that, Rawls and Evena's mouths were wide open in shock. Hearing this affirmative answer, even Eli was surprised by Kratos' courage.
A new force!
A new order!
The three of them took a deep breath. There was too much information to be gleaned from this. After all, establishing a force was not that simple. There were too many things to consider.
"How are the preparations coming along, Sir?" Evena asked carefully.
"It's almost done." Kratos nodded and said, "My teacher and I have been planning this for a long time. You don't have to worry about this. We just have to wait for the war to start. Of course, this is very difficult, and we can't do it alone. My teacher has a lot of people, but I don't have many people here. Are you willing to help us? "
"I'm willing to." The three of them said in unison. They had already come this far, so there was nothing more to say.
"Then what does Sir need us to do?" Eli asked.
If he really wanted to establish a force, it was very possible for Kratos to call Eli and the others over for a very important matter.
"Yes. There is something." Kratos nodded.
"The shadow lizard Academy's forces are deeply rooted here, and it's hard to create a big chaos by relying on war alone. It's also difficult for us to take action, so I need you to go to other camps belonging to the shadow lizard academy and create chaos." Kratos said calmly.
"Create chaos?" The three of them looked at each other and felt that it was a little tricky.
After all, although the shadow lizard Academy did not have any third circle warlocks, it did have the second circle warlocks. If they were discovered, they might face a large number of pursuers, which was not good news.
"Yes. Create enough chaos in the shadow lizard Warlock's territory, and then I'll reward you based on your contributions. I'll even fight for a chance for you to enter the Parliament." Kratos said calmly. "Oh, I forgot to tell you. When the new force is established, it will be called the White Tower. It will not adopt an ordinary academy structure, but a Parliament system. The Parliament will decide everything. When the time comes, my teacher will become the master of the White Tower, and I will become one of the three Deputy Masters. There will be twelve representatives, and I can nominate three of them." Kratos looked at them and said.
Needless to say, the council members were the true higher-ups of the White Tower, the kind that held power.
For a moment, except for Eli, the eyes of Evena and Rawls lit up. They were only the ministers of a camp, but the annual benefits were already great, let alone the higher-ups of a warlock force.
That would allow them to achieve a complete leap in class.
On the other hand, Eli was thinking even more. If he could join the upper echelons of a new organization, then many things would be much more convenient than they were now. Furthermore, the organization would also grow. If one day this organization became the master of this area, then wouldn't it be like Bryne back then? it would become his private land.
Eli made his decision right away. He thought about the mages who had once conquered the endless world, and he had already thought of a good idea.
"Then when will we make the move?" Eli asked.
"Three months later. Get ready." Kratos looked at the three of them and said.
"I don't have many people under me, and you're one of the few that I can fully trust. So, I hope you can work harder. When the time comes, if you can become a representative, it'll be much easier for me." Kratos sighed.
"Don't worry, my Lord. I will definitely work hard." Rawls immediately guaranteed. Power had always been one of his pursuits.
With that, he looked at Eli with a burning gaze. He couldn't plant plants better than Eli but he'd be great at creating chaos.
"I'll try my best." On the other hand, Evena maintained her modest character.
"Me too," Eli nodded, and asked another question.
"Then, Sir, where do we go after we do this?" This was also a key question.
"Uh, about that, you guys might need to maintain your destruction work during the war. I guess this war will last for a long time." Kratos said tactfully.
In other words, their mission was to continue until the end of the war, and they had no time to rest.
However, to establish a new force might take years or even decades, which was very dangerous.
"Understood, "Eli said.
"Sure. If you have any other questions, you can ask me." Kratos looked at them and smiled.
"Sir, since this is a long-term job, we definitely can't come back to take resources at any time. Can we take a certain amount of resources when we leave? " Asked Evena.
Kratos touched his chin and made a decision. "Each of you can take 5000 magic stones of resources. I'll give you permission to do so."
As long as he succeeded, he would have more magic stones. Therefore, Kratos was very generous at this moment.
"Alright, I have no more questions." Evena took a step back.
"I don't have any, either." Rawls shook his head as he had many thoughts in his mind, such as sneaking in or other things.
"I don't have any, either." It was the same for Eli.
After the discussion was over, Eli and the others gradually left.
Eli walked out of the door, looked at the mage Tower behind him, and sighed.
"Things are about to change."

150 Virus
Destroying a world was a mage's specialty.
From the books gathered by the four circle celestial, Nick, there were many processes for a mage to conquer the world. Among them was a set of processes on how to destroy the world. Among them, there were things about the collapse of continental plates, rule traps, virus transmission, cutting off the source of bloodlines, causal exchange, and so on, which left a deep impression on Eli.
Since he wanted to destroy it, there was no need to care about what happened. He had to be ruthless. Eli's idea was to develop a virus.
By creating a suitable virus, then letting them break out at the right time to create chaos, that was the basic idea of Eli.
As for how to deal with the virus, Eli had some ideas.
!!
That was to modify an existing virus.
Of course, the biggest problem now was how to get the virus. The solution was very simple.
It was the magic plant division.
As the Department grew magic plants, every few years, there would be a virus that contaminated the plants, just like the insects from more than a decade ago.
Usually, after a Department solved a problem, they would keep a part of it for safekeeping. It was not for research purposes but for the convenience of resolving it if they encountered similar problems in the future.
Thus, Eli quickly found Rona.
"Rona, go and help me find all the viruses in the magic plants Department." Eli said calmly as he sat on the chair.
"Sir, this is not allowed!" Rona exclaimed, " all viruses are very dangerous. Some of them are completely solved by a freak combination of factors. If they are accidentally released, it will cause great damage to the camp. Unless you have the battalion commander's token, this will not be approved." Rona quickly said.
"Is that so?" Eli nodded, indicating for Rona to leave.
After Rona left, he quickly went to find Kratos.
"My Lord, I need your orders. I need the virus storage of the magic plant division." Eli said.
"Sure." Kratos agreed immediately. It was a critical time now. Besides relying on others, more people were already on the move. The work of Eli and the others were also very important, so he would satisfy them to the best of his ability.
Soon, Eli returned to the Department with Kratos 'orders.
Rona, who knew that Kratos had already agreed, was shocked and couldn't believe it.
"Let's go. We're short on time." Eli cast a glance at Rona. historical
"Alright, Minister." Rona nodded, but he was puzzled.
Soon, Eli was brought to a building.
On the outside, it was a pitch-black Tower, and the body of the tower was covered with all sorts of plants. But when Eli walked in, he realized that there was actually a staircase that extended downwards.
"My Lord, all the dangerous things in the camp are kept here." Rona introduced.
"Yes."
Rona lit up the elemental lamps at the side, and the dim lights lit up one by one, illuminating the path to the stairs for Eli. Looking at the bottom of the tower, which was probably tens of meters deep, Eli walked down.
A few minutes later, the two of them arrived at the bottom of the tower.
There was a huge space at the bottom with a few large doors. Two warlocks were guarding the doors. They were both zero-circle warlocks, and their eyes were determined.
After showing Kratos' token, the two guards opened one of the stone doors.
"My Lord, I won't be going in." Rona looked inside, and his throat moved slightly.
Eli looked inside as well. It wasn't a big room, and there was only one shelf. There were several bottles and cans on the shelf, and most of them were black or green substances. One of the bottles seemed to be leaking, and there were green mold spots and spider webs all around.
"Only ten?" Eli glanced at the bottle on top and walked in while Rona stood outside the door in fear.
Eli took out a rectangular box and opened it. Then, under the control of his spiritual power, the ten bottles slowly flew up and entered the box one by one, and the box closed again.
His goal had been achieved.
With the box in hand, Eli walked out the door.
"Let's go," he said. After beckoning Rona, Eli took the lead and left.
Rona, on the other hand, was looking at Eli in fear. His heart was already in his throat. Oh my God, what was the Minister trying to do by taking away so many viruses?
Does he want to destroy the camp?
…
A month passed in the blink of an eye.
In the laboratory.
On the wide, white table, ten culture media were lined up in a row, and inside were the viruses that Eli had brought from the bottom of the tower.
On the other hand, Eli was in protective gear, observing the ten viruses in turn. After a month of cultivation, he needed to make a preliminary choice.
"It's too dependent on the environment. I don't think it can expand too much …"
"This won't do either. This infectious power is too trashy. At most, it can only destroy a small town."
"That's alright. It's just that the outbreak period is too short, so it's not suitable."
…
"This one is not bad."
Eli observed them one by one and numbered them. Finally, numbers one, five, and six stood out.
However, the strength of the virus was far from enough. Eli took a deep breath and decided to add something else to the virus.
The operation began again. At this time, the laboratory had been completely disinfected. Eli continued to ensure that the things inside would not be leaked out or the arcane realm would be in trouble.
…
Another month passed.
"No. 1's reproductive ability is too strong. It needs to be weakened appropriately. Also, the pollution is not enough."
"Number five seems to be able to influence even apprentices. Is it really that good? I need to do more research."
"Number six pulled is out. However, it'll detonate when it encounters strong mental power during the hibernation period. Perhaps I can make use of it and detonate it remotely when the time comes. I don't have to enter the battlefield personally then."
The research work was getting more and more urgent. On the other side, Eli didn't know if it was an illusion, but the environment around the camp was starting to get a little tense.
Kratos brought back a lot of people from his trip, and all the resources in the camp were being tightened. Even the magic plants Department began to harvest in advance, and the magic potion Department was suddenly asked to work overtime.
Under Kratos 'will, the low-level pace of the camp suddenly accelerated, but only the camp staff felt it was a big deal. The outsiders didn't feel anything and lived normal lives.
In their eyes, this was just a camp, a place where everyone gathered and communicated. It belonged to the shadow lizard Warlock Academy. Whether Kratos was the battalion commander or not had nothing to do with them. Perhaps one day, Kratos would lose his backer, and the camp might have nothing to do with him.
Eli thought that this might be one of the reasons why Kratos wanted to form an organization.
The Academy was the Academy, and he was himself. He couldn't rely on the academy forever.
Eli expressed his support. If they succeeded, it would be very different for Eli. If they failed, it wouldn't be that big of a problem. At most, he could just change his face and join another organization. These were all small problems.
However, no one wanted to fail, so he focused more on the virus.
…
Another half a month passed.
In the laboratory, Eli looked at the only remaining virus No. 1, and a smile appeared on his face.
It was a success.
He had only rested for a few days in the past three months, but the effect was still very good.
This virus was a fungal virus. It had a long incubation period, but as long as there was a large amount of mental strength, it could erupt at any time. The most interesting thing was that it could also infect acolytes to a certain extent. It was a truly powerful virus.
The only pity was that its lifespan was very short. However, it was also good as it could prevent it from being widely spread when the time came.
"It's almost time." Looking at the virus, Eli nodded.
With this, it would be much easier to cause damage. Rather than doing small damage to a small area, it would be better to affect a big area. Although this virus was ineffective against the first-circle warlocks, it was still a very vicious virus even for the zero-circle warlocks.
"Sigh, I was too kind and deliberately shortened the virus' lifespan…" Eli shook his head. With the warlock's ability, it would take a long time for them to come up with a countermeasure. By the time they could resolve it on their own, the war would probably be over soon.
And the three months were getting closer and closer.
Eli also began to collect resources. He packed up the things from the mage relic disposal Department, and the magic plants Department also took items worth thousands of magic stones and exchanged them for various resources they needed.
By the time everything was over, half a month had already passed.
…
"It's about time. You guys should leave. The start time of the war has also been decided. It will be in one and a half months. So if you want to make arrangements in advance, you should hurry up and leave." Kratos looked at the three of them with a serious expression.
"Yes." Rawls nodded and revealed a confident smile.
He had been doing something big in the past three months, and he believed he could one-up Eli this time.
"We're going to leave now." Naturally, Evena and Eli were well-prepared.
"When the time comes, contact me with the token. I still have things to do here, so I won't keep you."
After a simple instruction, Eli took the map of the shadow lizard Warlock Academy and left. He returned home directly and left after making sure that everything was taken.
On the way, Eli met Alice.
"My Lord, are you leaving?" Alice asked curiously as she looked at the fully-equipped Eli.
"Yes." Eli nodded. This lady had known him for many years and had grown up in the camp. It was a pity that she did not know that the camp was about to be gone.
"Alice, if possible, I suggest you leave the camp more often to see the outside world," suggested Eli. This was already the limit of what he could say.
"What do you mean?" Alice raised her brows, not understanding what he meant. She was about to ask when she realized that Eli had already walked out toward the main road.
"Ridiculous!" Alice blinked her eyes.
However, Eli's suggestion didn't sound like a bad idea. It just so happened that she had been feeling a little stuffy in the camp recently, giving her a sense of oppression like before a storm.
It was very strange.
On the other side.
After leaving the campsite, Eli transformed into a new face and headed toward his destination.
A few days later, Eli arrived at his first destination, another camp of the shadow lizard Warlock Academy.
Outside the campsite, Eli took a look at the bustling and lively campsite, turned around, and entered a mountain not far from there. He stopped in a small, hidden cave.
Entering the cave, Eli first threw out a dead deer's corpse, and after making sure that there was no one outside, he took out a bottle, which contained the fungal virus No. 1.
He took out a little of it and threw it on the flesh. In an instant, the fungus covered a small part of the carcass and was growing rapidly.
On the other hand, Eli was expressionless as he took out something that looked like a glass cover. This was a one-time use sorcery tool that he had made. It could give the fungus an environment to suppress its growth and at the same time, trap the fungus so that it would not spread. When the time came, the spiritual power connection could break the glass cover directly, and the fungus would be released directly. This meant that Eli could control the outbreak remotely.
That was what Eli thought. It was simple and comfortable.
After placing the cover properly and setting up some spell formations, Eli left the cave.
He took a look at the cave. With a fireball spell, the entire front of the cave was instantly buried. Then, with a vine spell, a large number of vines grew in this area, covering all traces.
After taking care of this, Eli didn't stay any longer and headed to the next location.
If the war were really going to last for a long time, then the virus that Eli had to prepare in advance wouldn't be in just one spot. It would be in the hundreds or even thousands, so Eli was scattering it as he walked.
Occasionally, he would even encounter some animals that would not migrate. He would wrap the fungus in a cover and stuff it into the bodies of these animals. It would not corrode, so he could just detonate it when needed.
A month and ten days passed just like that.
Eli had almost forgotten how many viruses he had set up, and just as he thought that everything was over, an accident still happened.
On this day.
In a mountain forest, Elie had just finished dealing with a new setup when a voice suddenly came from afar.
"What are you doing?"
Turning around, he saw a long-faced man with an aquiline nose standing under a tree. His black eyes were fixed on Eli, and the aura on his body was ready to be unleashed, exuding the aura of a late-stage first-circle warlock.
He had been discovered.
"Oh? " Eli was stunned. He instantly took out a token and crushed it. The corpse culture medium that was covered by the protective cover in front of him shattered instantly. The corpse and the virus inside dissolved rapidly.
Seeing the evidence disappear, Eli stood up, spread out his hands, and smiled.
"Would you believe me if I said I was just digging?"
"Digging?" Crowe's mouth twitched.
This area was the shadow lizard Academy's part that was close to the magic herb field. In order to prevent anyone from causing destruction, he often patrolled the area. Today, he had accidentally bumped into Eli.
"I believe you, but you have to come with me." Crowe looked at Eli, his eyes sharp.
"Alright," Eli nodded and took a step towards Crowe. In the next second, his body instantly retreated in the opposite direction, his body quickly leaving in the shadows.
"Stop!" Crowe watched as Eli fled, quickly throwing down a sign on the tree and chasing after him. As he ran, he fired a signal flare.
Whoosh!
The signal flare flew into the sky, and a spark bloomed in the sky. Seven or eight warlocks quickly ran over from the magic herb field in the distance. They looked at the symbol on the tree.
"Someone has sneaked in. Chase!"
The group of warlocks looked at the message and quickly flew in the direction pointed out.
A few warlocks stayed behind to observe the traces, and they noticed the virus carrier Eli had destroyed earlier.
Everyone quickly went over to check. A shadow lizard Warlock covered his hand with scales and touched the ground. He immediately felt a burning sensation, as if his bloodline was burning.
"What's going on?" The Warlock gasped and quickly retreated.
"What's wrong?"
"There's definitely something wrong with this thing, but I don't know what it is. It might be a virus." The Warlock frowned as he felt the heat.
Virus?
Everyone knew that this wasn't simple.
"Quick, let's go too. We have to catch that Warlock. He must have a sample on him." The warlocks immediately made a decision.
The chase began.
…
Eli ran away quickly, looking at the group of people behind him, and his mouth twitched.
It would be fine if this mission were not discovered, but once it was, it would be very troublesome.
It seemed that he would have to exhaust his resource again.
"Stop!" Behind him, Crowe had also heard about the virus from the others and shouted angrily. Then, he saw Eli running in front of him, taking out a dozen small balls.
More than a dozen small balls were thrown out in an instant, and they shattered one after another. A thundercloud instantly blocked the way, and the lightning inside scattered in all directions, accompanied by a corrosive liquid.
Acid thundercloud!
A single-use Mage weapon that would probably cost a few hundred magic stones.
In order to escape, Eli didn't feel any heartache at all.
"Damn it!" Crowe gritted his teeth at the sight.
The power of his bloodline was activated, and a large shadow instantly erupted, ready to rush over.
But a few seconds later, accompanied by a deep, painful cry, Crowe retreated from the thundercloud. His body was covered in wounds and potholes, and there were even traces of electricity.
"Damn. This is a first-circle item. Doesn't he feel that it's a waste?"
The level of this one-time-use magic tool was higher than he had expected. He did not expect a sneaky wizard to be so rich that he could take out so many one-time-use magic tools.
"Damn it. Let's go around the area." Crowe cursed and said to the dozen people behind him. historical
The thunderclouds in front of them had spread across the entire area. They had to continue to circle around for a few thousand meters.
Not everyone was as fast as Eli. When Crowe caught up to Eli, there were only three or four warlocks around him.
"Brat, stop!" Crowe was still saying meaningless words.
Without even looking back, Eli cast another acidic thundercloud.
Looking at the thunderclouds in front of them, a few of them became numb again.
What else could they do?
After this round, there were only three people left.
Then, they saw the most ridiculous thing in their lives.
With all sorts of secret escape techniques, Eli was able to move freely in all sorts of places, and dozens of defensive measures were able to block their attacks completely. Eli also used four single-use wizard weapons, acid thunderclouds that were worth nearly 1000 magic stones each.
An hour later.
Crowe looked around. Other than him, there was no one else in pursuit. But thankfully, Eli was finally blocked by him at a dead end.
"I've caught you," Crowe grinned hideously.
"You run so fast!" Eli looked at the late-stage first-circle Warlock in front of him helplessly. Wouldn't it be better if he couldn't catch up? He didn't want to kill anyone!
"You're afraid." Seeing that Eli was sighing, Crowe revealed a sinister smile.
"No, I just don't want any trouble." Shaking his head, Eli looked at Crowe, his eyes instantly turning sharp.
Crowe felt that something was wrong.
In the next second, he saw shadows appear around him. White skeletons appeared one after another. Some were human-shaped, and some were magical beasts. Cold undead flames burned, and all the skeletons stared at Crowe.
Cold sweat trickled down Crowe's forehead. It was fine at first, but as the number of skeletons gradually exceeded a thousand, Crowe knew that this matter might be serious.
Especially when Eli activated his bloodline and emitted an aura that even shocked him, Crowe's clothes were instantly drenched in a cold sweat. He looked at Eli and forced a smile.
"Would you believe me if I said that this was a misunderstanding? "
Eli's golden vertical pupils looked at Crowe, just like how Crowe had looked at him before.
"I do!"
In the next second, all the skeletons swarmed forward, and even Eli rushed over.
Crowe's mouth twitched, his face full of despair.
Two minutes later.
As Eli's Dragon Claw struck out, Crowe was trapped by the skeletons around him. In an instant, blood spurted out, and Crowe's head flew up, his body falling heavily.
The battle was over.
"Sigh, I really just want to leave this place in peace!"
Looking at Crowe's fallen body, Eli sighed and quickly left the place.
Next, he was ready to end the mission.
Although one-fifth of the points had not been set up, being discovered once was already a very dangerous warning. Eli would not take any more risks. As for what happened to Kratos, it was none of his business. His life was much more precious than anything else.
Next, Eli prepared to head to Tijie's wizard camp.
When he reached there, he could find someone to help him complete the progress of studying the devouring power.
The location of the campsite was known to him as well. It was something that Tijie had told him a long time ago. However, it might take some time for him to reach the place since they were deep in the mountains.
After taking one last look at the place, Eli turned around and left.
…
Just ten minutes after Crowe's death.
The warlocks who belonged to the camp finally arrived. However, when they stood in that area and saw that the ground was covered in blood, but there was no trace of Eli or Crowe, everyone was stunned.
"Damn it, why did the lead stop here?" One of the warlocks frowned.
"That doesn't make sense. They were chasing and fighting at the same time. How could there be no traces? " The other Warlock frowned.
"Damn it, search!" One of the warlocks ordered.
Under the Warlock's orders, a group of people began to search the vicinity and soon found some clues.
"There's something here!" Someone shouted.
Under a big tree, a man saw a golden ring.
"Isn't this the ring on Lord Crowe's finger?" Someone identified the ring's origin.
Everyone was stunned.
Rings were generally not something that could be dropped. This could only mean one thing: master Crowe, who was chasing the enemy, might have died.
"Impossible. How could master Crowe have died? that person just now was at most a middle-stage first-circle Warlock." One of the warlocks frowned.
"Continue the chase!" Someone said.
"My Lords!"
At this moment, there was a sudden commotion in the distant forest. An apprentice wearing a Warlock's leather armor ran out, panting. He said anxiously, "The Academy orders everyone to return immediately and cease all activities."
"What's wrong?" A hot-tempered Warlock grabbed the apprentice and asked.
"The war… the war has begun."
The apprentice was grabbed, but he still said in fear.
War?
Everyone was stunned.
152 In Danger
New calendar year 3610.
The blood Alliance suddenly invaded the shadow lizard sorcerer Academy.
The war broke out.
In the same month, Eli also arrived at his destination.
The kerna mountain range was a large mountain range on the West Coast. The terrain was complicated and there were many magical beasts, but there were not many resources. It was an ownerless land on the West Coast.
!!
This was the campsite of the iris mages.
Eli took a look at the huge mountain range and felt the soul imprint that belonged to Tijie. After determining the direction, he set off in one direction.
…
At the same time.
A battle was about to take place in the mountains.
The iris campsite.
"Damn it, are these magical beasts crazy? A sudden attack on the camp." Tijie stood on the tower with a staff in her right hand, her eyes fixed on the magical beasts in the distance.
She was currently at the highest point of the campsite, the top of a dark mage tower that was seven to eight meters tall.
She saw a large residential area below her. Most of the buildings were made of stone, and a few were directly watered with soil and then solidified with sorcery.
Further away was a stone wall carved with runes. On the wall stood more than 20 mage apprentices and an official mage. They were staring into the distance.
Further away, there were trees and primitive plants. They were growing freely, showing their strong vitality. However, Tijie and the Mages were not worried about them. They were worried about the magical beasts that were moving in their direction.
Most of them were from the zero circles, including the Silver Moon Frost Wolf, dark demonic bear, saw-toothed wild boar, and many other common beasts in the wild. There were also the first circle Silver Moon Frost Wolf King and Striped Tiger.
In short, Tijie estimated that there were at least five to six first-circle demonic beasts and even more zero Circle demonic beasts. There were hundreds of them. A demonic beast tide of this number was not something they could guard against.
"Vice battalion commander, I've already investigated the matter. It seems that there's a three-circle magical beast deeper in the forest, so the nearby magical beasts are all trying to move outside. We're just unlucky to be in one of the routes." Suddenly, a first-circle apprentice appeared beside her and reported to her.
Tijie rubbed her temples. This was really an unexpected disaster!
However, it was impossible to escape. In such a beast tide, the chances of survival were even smaller if they fled. Instead of escaping, they might as well fight to the death. There was still a glimmer of hope.
"Summon all the apprentices and mages here. We have no other choice." Tijie glanced at the apprentice and walked out of the Tower.
Then, she headed toward the city wall in the distance.
"Tijie, you're here." Another first-circle mage saw her and greeted her.
"Hae, where's the battalion commander?" Hae was a middle-aged man. He was wearing a gray robe and also holding a staff.
"Over there." Hae turned his head.
On the other side of the wall, an old man was standing. His body was thin, but his eyes were bright. Both his mental force and life force showed that he was a mage in his twilight years.
Tijie nodded, knowing that it was not the time to talk. At this moment, the beast tide also arrived.
The dark mass of magical beasts brought a huge sense of pressure. The low roars of the magical beasts made the apprentices' hearts beat fast. As one of the three official Mages, Tijie pursed her lips when she sensed the number of magical beasts.
Damn it!
"They're here!" historical
At that moment, the nearest magic beast was already close to the wall. A magic Wolf leaped four to five meters.
"Extreme frost ray!" Tijie waved her staff, and a blue-white light beam shot toward the demonic Wolf. It hit the wolf and froze it into an ice block, causing it to fall heavily to the ground.
This seemed to be just a prologue. With the death of the first magic Wolf, the other magic beasts also rushed to the camp, wanting to tear the humans inside into pieces.
The second batch of magical beasts also roared and shouted, wanting to charge at the camp.
All of the apprentices took a deep breath and activated the dozens of magical Models at the same time. At the same time, a mysterious connection was formed between all the mages, as if they were a group.
Combined spell-fire curtain.
A huge spell model circulated under his feet, and a flame curtain tens of meters long swept toward the magic beasts, instantly burning dozens of zero-circle magic stones into ashes.
After using this spell, everyone took a deep breath and began to adjust.
During this process, the three first-circle mages, Tijie, Hae, and the battalion commander, did not move at all because they had to deal with more troublesome creatures. Those first-circle magical beasts were also much more cunning.
The battle continued.
Waves after waves of magical beasts came like a tide. At first, the apprentices used joint sorcery, but later, they began to fight on their own. Even the first circle mages, including Tijie, began to fight.
Hae was fighting with a first-circle demonic bear. He was very fast. Every time he waved his staff, a cutting force would fly toward the demonic bear, leaving a wound.
On the other hand, Tijie was fighting the Silvermoon Wolf King. She was constantly controlling the wolf King's advance with her ice rays. There were also a few apprentices who were assisting her in her attacks.
Of course, the most powerful of them all was still the battalion commander, who was at the peak of the first circle. As he waved his staff, bolts of lightning wrapped around his body, and he attacked a first-circle magical beast. This magical beast that had just entered the first circle had no way of resisting.
The situation seemed to be great.
However, as time passed, the number of magical beasts in the first ring gradually increased.
Gradually, the number of first-circle demonic beasts that Tijie and the others had to face increased to two or three. There were even zero-circle demonic beasts that kept harassing them.
The situation on the battalion commander's side was even worse. He had been attacked by a full circle of magical beasts, and even though he was at the limit of the first circle, he was still being suppressed, and there were more than ten wounds on his body.
If the first-circle mages were already in this state, then the apprentices were even worse. All the mages in the camp had come out, and about ten of them had died.
"Damn it. I can't hold on much longer." Tijie dodged the attack of the magical beast once again. She felt a little hopeless.
"Tijie, Hae, I definitely can't leave. I'll create an opportunity for you guys. Run!" Suddenly, the battalion commander in the distance shouted at the two of them.
At the same time, she could feel her battalion commander's life force burning up rapidly. At the same time, a terrifying lightning bolt shot out in all directions. In an instant, dozens of zero-circle magical beasts were killed, while the first-circle magical beasts nearby were paralyzed and unable to move.
This was the final counterattack of the mage who was at the end of his life.
"Go!" After the lightning dissipated, the battalion commander's body looked extremely weak. His eyes were not as bright as before, but he still shouted at them.
Tears flowed out of Tijie's eyes.
She had grown up in the camp, and it was this old man who had raised her. How could she run away now?
"Let's go, Tijie!" At that moment, Hae ran over and pulled Tijie away.
"No, we can't leave. What will happen to the apprentices if we leave? " Tijie gritted her teeth.
"Damn it, do you think you can protect everyone? If you stay here, we will all die. Don't waste the chance that our battalion commander has given us." Hae cursed.
"Alright," Tijie gritted her teeth and prepared to leave.
However, just as she turned around and was about to leave, suddenly, the soul brand in her mind that had not made a sound for a few years flashed, and a message was sent.
"Where is your camp? Why can't I find it?"
Tijie was stunned.
What did that mean? Is Roland here?
Wasn't it courting death to come here at this time?
She immediately told Eli not to come here, but before she could say anything, another piece of news came."Oh, I found it. My perception was wrong."
Found it?
Tijie was stunned.
Hae was also confused by Tijie's reaction. He wanted to pull her away when he saw a man in a Black wizard's robe, holding a magic staff in the distant forest.
…
"A monster horde of the first and zero rings? " Just as Eli walked out of the mountain forest, he saw the tragic scene before him.
He didn't expect such a thing to happen as soon as he found her, but since he saw it, he might as well deal with it.
Eli shook his head and activated the spell model. He waved his right hand. As he advanced to the late stage of the first circle, his power also increased a lot. This was within his scope of control.
In an instant, white bones began to appear in the shadows of the forest.
A few thousand zero-circle skeletons and 60 first-circle skeletons stepped out from the shadows, their undead flames burning as they looked at the monster horde.
The mages in the camp were stunned by what they saw.
Even the beast tide was stunned. The roaring magical beasts also fell silent for a second.
…
"A Necromancer?"
The sudden arrival of Eli caught everyone off guard. Tijie's mouth was wide open as she looked at Eli. Originally, she was already surprised enough that Roland suddenly came to find her, but now, looking at the thousands of undead, she only felt that she was too ignorant.
The Necromancer was really overbearing!
"Who is he?" Hae was also stunned, not understanding what had happened.
The battalion commander, who had already burned his life force, stood still in the distance. Although he did not know who this Mage who had suddenly appeared was, he seemed to be prepared to save them.
The apprentices were even happier. They had all been in despair, but they didn't expect to see a ray of light at the end of the tunnel.
What happened next was simple.
Everyone watched as the White skeletons collided with the beast tide. Although the beast tide was large in number, they were not united. As a large number of magical beasts died, the rest of the magical beasts fled.
It was the same for the first-circle beasts. Even though one of them could take on a few zero-circle skeletons, there were simply too many of them. They all wanted to escape, but there was no way Eli would allow that. After all, he had to replenish his supply.
Therefore, the skeletons fought back at first, but in the end, they surrounded and killed the first-circle magic beasts in front of everyone in the camp.
An hour later, as the last magical beast died, everyone looked at Eli, who was walking over from a distance, stepping on the bones and corpses. Instead of feeling grateful, they felt a little afraid.
Even Hae was frozen on the spot, not daring to move. He had no idea what the mage was up to. The battalion commander was looking at Eli from a distance, ready to confront him.
However, someone was faster than her.
"Sir Roland, why are you here? "
Ha?
Everyone was dumbfounded. Deputy battalion commander Tijie knew this powerful foreign Mage?!

153 Waiting
"Mr. Roland, you said you wanted to join our camp? "
Three men and one woman were in a room in the tall mage Tower.
The commander of the camp, Lincoln, was lying on the sofa. His face and body were full of wrinkles, and his bright eyes had become dull. However, when he heard that this powerful mage in front of him wanted to join the camp, his eyes lit up.
Although he was a peak first circle Mage, he was already old. Furthermore, he had just gone through a huge battle, so his life force was not enough to allow him to live much longer. However, the camp needed a strong mage leader.
"Yes," Eli nodded.
!!
He was sitting opposite the first circle Mage, while Hae and Tijie were sitting on the sofa on both sides.
"Then, can you tell me the reason? I really don't understand why a first-circle mage as strong as you would want to join us." Lincoln coughed and asked weakly.
"Maybe I'm too tired. I also want to find a place to rest." Eli said in a desolate manner.
"Just like that?" Lincoln raised his eyebrows. This was not a good reason.
"Lord Lincoln, Lord Roland is so powerful. He can also provide us with protection. Isn't that a good thing? " Said Tijie.
"No, I don't think so. Although he saved us, it's not appropriate to let him join so rashly. Besides, he's the strongest in the camp. We can't stop him if he wants to do something." Hae looked at Eli and said with a frown.
"Why would we stop him?" Tijie asked curiously.
"In any case, I don't agree." Hae shook his head. He would never agree. Even if he were killed, he would never agree.
For a time, the scene fell into silence again.
A few seconds later, Lincoln asked again, " Mr. Roland, if you join us, what identity would you like to use? "
"If I join, I hope that it will be as a battalion commander," Eli replied straightforwardly.
Lincoln blinked his eyes.
Hae's eyes were wide open as he looked at Eli. He couldn't believe that he would be so arrogant, and asked, "On what basis?"
"Because I'm the strongest." It was still very calm, but it was indeed the reality.
Hae and Lincoln fell into silence once again. Tijie also pretended to be silent. After all, no one knew that she was actually Eli's follower.
"Oh, I forgot to mention, I have a channel for magic plants, and I can provide it to the camp when the time comes." After a few seconds of silence, Eli looked at the three of them and spoke again.
"What?"
"Wait."
As soon as he said that, Eli instantly saw the three of them staring straight at him.
"You say you have magic plant materials?" Lincoln asked, enunciating each word as if he wanted to hear a confirmation from Eli.
Looking at the man's burning gaze, Eli seemed to have understood something. These mage camps in the wild didn't have huge herb fields, and materials were in short supply all year round. It could be said that whoever could solve this problem would not only join but also…
"Yes," Eli nodded.
"Good. From today onwards, you will be the battalion commander of the camp," Lincoln said quickly, afraid that Eli would renege.
"Yeah, I agree too." Hae also said hurriedly, completely forgetting his previous complaints.
"You agree just like that?" The corners of Eli's mouth twitched. He even wanted to settle it with force, but he didn't expect it to be like this.
"That's right, you've already solved the problem of the magic potion and plant. You saved us. You deserve to be a battalion commander." Hae said.
Eli finally understood how difficult it was to set up camp.
"Fine, from today on, I will be the battalion commander here." Eli nodded. The magical plants in his arcane realm were now harvested once a year, and he would never be able to use them all up by himself. It was just right to take action.
"Alright," Lincoln also stood up at this moment and extended his hand as he looked at Eli.
Eli glanced at the three of them, then shook their hands.
With this, he was the manager of this place.
"I'll announce you as the new battalion commander tomorrow. Go and rest for today. Tijie, bring Lord Roland to his room." Said Lincoln.
"Yes."
The next day.
In the middle of the camp.
Lincoln announced in front of everyone that Eli would be the new battalion commander. Everyone was in an uproar, expressing their objection. After all, saving lives and being their leader were two different things.
However, the objection only lasted for a dozen minutes. As Eli went on stage and announced that he could bring magical plant materials to everyone, everyone immediately shut up and began to shout his name.
The mages could not refuse the supply of magic plant materials.
…
"Tijie, tell me about the current situation of the camp." In one of the rooms, Eli asked Tijie.
Right now, he had completed the transition of power, and Eli had more or less taken control of the camp. Lincoln had also burned too much of his life force previously, so he could probably only live for a while longer.
There was also Tijie and Hae. Since Tijie was his slave, he didn't care much about her. Hae was only a first-circle Magus, so he didn't take him seriously.
"master, there are four first circle mages in the camp, including you, so that's the four of us. There are about 78 zero circle Wizards and about 200 to 300 slaves. That's all we have." Tijie reported.
Eli nodded.
"What about our financial situation?"
"Well, there are still more than 100 magic stones in the camp's warehouse. The magic plant resources are worth about 500 magic stones, and the magic potions are only about 200 to 300 magic stones." Tijie lowered her head because the data was too bad.
"So little?" Eli was stunned, no wonder Lincoln agreed so readily.
This was an empty campsite, but luckily, what Eli wanted was people.
"hmm, since that's the case, let's make arrangements for the reconstruction after the beast tide. We'll take our time with the follow-up work." Eli nodded.
"Yes, may I ask my Lord a question?" Tijie suddenly asked.
"Of course, you can."
"My Lord, did you come here because of the war between the shadow lizard sorcerer Academy and the blood Alliance?" Tijie asked.
"Yes." Eli nodded.
Speaking of this, the war suddenly broke out on the day of the killing. The blood Alliance actually started the war ahead of schedule, and the shadow lizard sorcerer Academy immediately shrank its forces and responded actively.
Of course, Kratos was still a member of the shadow lizard sorcerer Academy on the surface and had not rebelled yet, so Eli didn't have to do anything for now and was still waiting for Kratos' news.
"Alright, I'll take my leave then." Tijie was just curious, so she left after asking, leaving Eli alone in the room.
"Sigh, I'll just have to slowly develop here until the war ends. If I become a camp leader, I'll need to become stronger. I'm still too weak now. I need to at least reach the limit of first circle. Otherwise, this might not be a good thing." Eli shook his head. New opportunities would often bring new crises.
If one didn't have the ability to deal with the crisis, opportunities could often turn into disasters.
…
In the blink of an eye, a month had passed.
Eli had also completely settled down here.
As the battalion commander here, and with a large number of resources, it was easy for him to get a lot of mage books from the others and learn a lot of interesting things.
For example, combined sorcery. If he could fuse all the skeletons, it would definitely be very powerful. Of course, this also required a certain method, but Eli felt that he could make something out of it.
There was also the issue of the fluctuations of the devouring power. Eli had already spread it out to the camp, forcing all the apprentices to participate. At first, everyone was very resistant, but when Eli offered a huge salary, everyone stopped saying anything.
The status of mages on the West Coast was too low, and there was a lack of powerful organizations. This caused them to have no suitable territories, and it was difficult to get resources. It could be said that before Eli's arrival, they were all below the poverty line, so the sudden arrival of Eli made these poor mages a little uncomfortable.
They were both mages. How could Eli be so rich?
Just as Eli was using these mages to develop his own power, the war between the shadow lizard sorcerer Academy and the blood Alliance had also begun.
To a certain extent, the two forces were on the same level, so once they started fighting, they would only be testing each other.
After testing the waters for a month, the two sides finally started a real war.
Even 1st circle warlocks often died, let alone acolytes. Dozens of acolytes died every day, causing the two forces to feel heartache.
However, at present, the Blood Alliance still had the overall advantage. After all, they had been preparing for a long time. At the beginning of the war, they had directly taken down several territories of the shadow lizard Warlock Academy, causing them to suffer heavy losses.
The long-planned infiltration also allowed them to have a better understanding of the Academy's situation, and they were always able to make more appropriate decisions, which made the Academy very uncomfortable.
Therefore, a month later.
The shadow lizard Warlock Academy had completely withdrawn all unnecessary personnel, choosing to abandon the edge parts to protect the main body, which allowed them to regain some rhythm for the time being.
The two forces once again fell into a battle of equal strength.
And this continuous battle lasted for more than two years.
On the other hand, Eli learned about the outside world from Kratos' token and Ross. Kratos's rebellion, which he had been waiting for, did not come. It seemed that the Blood Alliance was going for the long haul. After all, a war between warlocks was different from a war between mortals that lasted a few days or a few months. It was not surprising that it would last for more than a decade.
This also made Eli feel even more fortunate that he had left this muddy water ahead of time.
And just when Eli thought he would have to wait another two years. historical
A year later, just as Eli finished a day of experiments, Kratos suddenly sent a message.
"We'll take action in three months."
Report chapter Comments
154 Seven Years
"Are they finally going to make a move?"
Looking at this line of words, ere shook his head. In the next stage, Kratos' identity would change to the blood Alliance, which would definitely have a great impact on the situation, and might even lead to the collapse of the shadow lizard sorcerer Academy.
However, he believed that Kratos would not do that. He would ensure harmony between the two forces so that they would have more time to take action. In the chaos between the two forces, the New White Tower would thrive.
"It's starting!" Eli's consciousness began to sense the virus that he had left behind.
Other than a few who were already dead, most of them were intact. They were just waiting for Eli's command to release them. It would be exciting when the time came, but it was a pity that Eli couldn't see it.
!!
…
Three months passed in the blink of an eye.
Cross Plains.
The plains that used to be peaceful and harmonious were now in the midst of a war.
Hundreds of Warlock apprentices were fighting. Blood was everywhere, and screams and cries of pain could be heard. The scene of killing enveloped the place, and the atmosphere of fear made it hard for everyone to breathe.
Compared to the wars between mortals, the wars between warlocks were much more dangerous and intense. As the war continued, warlocks were dying at a rapid rate.
Other than these apprentices, the battles in the first circle were the really thrilling ones.
On the other side.
A first-circle sorcerer had already transformed his entire body into a bloodline. His body was covered in tree-like ripples, and countless vines grew on his body, attacking the other side at the same time.
His opponent was also a Warlock who had fused with the bloodline of the red-blooded Wolf. His eyes were red, and he gave off a bloodthirsty aura. He was very agile, and when facing a Warlock with the beech wood bloodline, he could always Dodge as quickly as possible.
The two warlocks continued to fight, and if an apprentice accidentally got close, he would be torn to pieces in the aftermath of the battle.
There were many battlefields like this, but the most eye-catching ones were the two-ring Warlocks in the center.
Two from the shadow lizard Warlock Academy and two from the blood Alliance.
On the side of the Blood Alliance, there were two warlocks wearing wolf masks. On this side, there was an old man and a familiar Warlock, Kratos.
"Go!" The old man said as he looked at Kratos beside him. His body instantly turned into a bloodline, and a large shadow instantly pounced toward the two people opposite him.
At the same time, a large amount of ice and water appeared and collided with the shadows. For a moment, it was like a collision between black and white waves.
It was supposed to be a normal confrontation, but the old man felt that something was wrong because Kratos, who had been standing aside, hadn't made a move yet.
He turned his head and saw a shocking scene.
Kratos moved, but he did not attack the two people opposite him. Instead, he flew straight toward him.
"Damn it, Kratos, what are you doing?" The old man cursed.
Kratos covered his body with shadow power and launched an attack at the old man.
Bang!
Kratos' sudden attack caught him off guard. A shadow moved backward and blocked Kratos.
However, he looked at the three people who were already standing together, and a hint of despair appeared in his eyes.
The next day.
The first rebellion led to the shadow lizard's defeat in an important war. What was more terrifying was that the shadow lizard had lost a second circle wizard, which was a real loss.
And three days after seeing this news.
Eli took a deep breath, and with a thought, more than a dozen viruses were instantly shattered.
…
The war continued.
However, some of the warlock camps suddenly found some bacteria and viruses nearby. At first, they did not pay much attention to it, but as the virus invaded, a large number of apprentices fell sick directly, and they realized the seriousness of the problem.
"Damn it, can someone tell me what's going on?" In a camp, the second circle shadow lizard Warlock looked at the large number of apprentices lying outside and said angrily.
"I'm sorry, my Lord. I don't know." The one standing in front of him was a first-circle warlock, and he was also at a loss.
"Have you found a solution?" The two-circle warlock asked.
"No, we've looked through all the pharmacists in the camp, but they couldn't solve it. This virus doesn't seem to live for long, so we can just isolate the people." The Warlock suggested.
"Alright," he said. The two-circle sorcerer gritted his teeth. They were short of manpower now, and this situation was a little difficult for him to accept.
However, when he heard that there were similar viruses in other places, he immediately realized that this was a conspiracy of the Blood Alliance.
…
"Beautiful."
In a tent, Kratos smiled as he read the news.
Needless to say, the virus should have been created by Eli. He had to admit that he did not expect Eli to be able to come up with something like this. After all, no warlocks studied this anymore.
Eli was a strange talent.
However, with this wave of interference, their mission could also be more successful, and the White Tower's power could also slowly grow.
"Time, I still need time." Kratos looked up at the top of the tent and said.
Although the other two had also caused some damage, they were much inferior compared to Eli.
…
Three years passed in the blink of an eye.
Every once in a while, Eli would release some viruses, and perhaps it was because he had not paid attention to them for a long time, these viruses actually began to slowly mutate and evolve into several versions, which made the shadow lizard sorcerer Academy complain endlessly.
Of course, it wasn't just them. The Blood Alliance had also occupied some areas of the academy and these areas were also infected with the virus, which made the Blood Alliance very unhappy.
This made the situation even more chaotic and made Kratos so happy that he couldn't close his mouth because Eli had already told them how to deal with the virus in White Tower in advance, so they didn't have to worry about this problem.
This made many members of the White Tower know that there was a very powerful pharmacist in the organization who could create not only viruses but also first-class potions. The reputation of " Herman " was spreading.
The White Tower was still in formation. Blood Alliance and Shadow Lizard were both facing difficulty.
As for Rawls and Evena, they had their own methods.
Rawls was stirring up monster hordes everywhere, while Evena was spreading false information internally. Both of them caused certain levels of damage, but compared to Eli's, be it in terms of range or spread, they were much worse.
Rawls was still working hard, working hard to become a member of Parliament, and he felt that he had already won against Eli.
…
Just like that, time passed by slowly.
Occasionally, Eli would also stop the release of the virus. After all, there was a limit to the virus.
Meanwhile, in the mage camp, Eli was also very happy. With the help of the mages, the construction of the spell model of the devouring power was rapidly progressing, and he was already one-third done. If he were to do it himself, it would take at least ten years.
This was the power of a group.
Speaking of collective power, after reading about combined magic, Eli had also created a new spell. historical
He had created a level 1 spell-shadow skeleton combination. This spell used skeletons as the main body and a large amount of Shadow Force as support. It was also combined with more than ten other small techniques to create a spell. The effect was to combine a large number of skeletons into a huge skeleton that could burst out with power.
Eli had yet to experiment with this spell, but according to his expectations, this spell's explosive power had already exceeded a first-circle spell.
In short, everything was getting better.
…
Four years later.
As the battle went on, the shadow lizard sorcerer Academy was getting weaker and weaker, and the Alliance of ten thousand blood was ready to give a fatal blow.
But something unexpected happened again.
A group of self-proclaimed White Tower sorcerers suddenly appeared, and their leader was the former shadow lizard warlock Academy's Chairman, second circle Limit warlock Marcus. The Deputy Chairmans were three second-circle warlocks, including Kratos, who they trusted very much.
The situation of the war changed again.
White Tower was nibbling away at the shadow lizard's forces while dealing with the blood Alliance.
Things were at a standstill, until suddenly, the virus outbreak started to affect first-circle warlocks. The blood Alliance's offensive instantly fell.
This made the people of the White Tower overjoyed.
…
At this moment, in a room in the middle of a plain.
A meeting was in progress.
"Kratos, your subordinate Herman has made a great contribution this time." A white-haired man sitting on the main seat of the Round Table looked at Kratos and said with a smile.
"Uh, indeed." Kratos nodded. Up until now, he still didn't understand how Eli could develop a virus of this level. It seemed that he had underestimated him.
"That's right. If we didn't have the magic potion to solve the problem, this war would have been much more difficult. I don't know how many people would have died."
"That's true. Herman is too powerful. This virus can even affect a first-circle Warlock. He has brought us too much time."
The people present were all warlocks of the White Tower, and they were all discussing.
"Hey, I remember that Kratos has three people in charge of this, right? How are the other two?" Someone suddenly asked.
"Indeed, I think there are two more. I don't remember their names, but one of them is raising monster hordes. However, the impact is just so-so, and it's far from being comparable to a virus. The other one is manipulating public opinion. She is actually very good at her job, much more effective than the beast hordes."
"Oh, let's focus on Herman." The person who asked the question lost interest after knowing the answer. The gap was too big.
"I heard that Herman is also a very powerful pharmacist."
"Indeed, it seems like he was the one who modified the silent moon spring. The effect is very good."
"Sigh, this guy has really made a great contribution this time. I'm so envious of Kratos for having such a subordinate."
For a moment, the entire room was filled with discussions about Herman.
On the other hand, Kratos and his teacher looked at each other helplessly.
Good Lord, aren't we going to discuss the follow-up battle today?
Why was it all about Herman?
Kratos was also very helpless. Suddenly, he sadly discovered that in the White Tower, Eli's reputation was even greater than his.
What the hell is this?

155 Endless Devouring
"Damn it, is this virus not finished yet?"
Some people were happy, while others were sad.
In the Blood Alliance, a second-circle warlock angrily smashed his cup on the ground.
"Who can tell me how long it'll take to resolve this virus?" At this time, they were also having a seminar. At this time, in addition to him, there was a large number of warlocks from the blood Alliance.
"My Lord, it might take a long time." One of the warlocks said tactfully.
"How long?"
"Five years,"
"Five years?" The second-circle Sorcerer's mouth twitched, and he was about to get angry.
"Sir, you really can't blame us for this. Not only is this virus evolving at any time, but what's worse is that no one in our organization has ever studied this thing before. We're even collecting resources now." The Warlock felt wronged.
"Then why didn't you study it before? "
"My Lord, everyone studies bloodlines and the power of bloodlines. Who would study this for no reason? " The Warlock replied.
Second circle warlock, "…"
For a moment, he fell into silence. The entire room fell into silence. That's right, who would study this kind of thing for no reason?
…
"What the f * ck? How did this virus evolve into a first-circle version? " When Eli received the news, he was also stunned.
His virus had always only affected the zero circle, but he did not expect it to evolve into a first-circle version on its own. Fortunately, the basic sequence had not changed, and the potion was still useful. Otherwise, it would be difficult not only for the shadow lizard sorcerer Academy and the blood Alliance but also for the White Tower.
One could only say that nature was too great.
"Sigh, it's just a coincidence." Eli sighed. He would definitely be able to develop a first-circle virus if he was given time, but three months was already his limit.
However, this had nothing to do with him. He was still in the mage camp and would think about it after the war was over.
With that in mind, Eli walked out of the tower and into the camp.
Compared to seven years ago, there were many more mages here, and many of them came because of their reputation. Relying on the large magic herb field in the secret plane, not only did Eli get a lot of things from the camp, but the camp also relied on his resources to develop.
It could be said that Eli's arrival had brought New Hope to this place.
That was why Eli's reputation here was very high.
"Good Morning, Mr. Roland."
"Good Morning, my Lord."
Along the way, people greeted him from time to time, and he responded politely.
Soon, he arrived at another part of the camp.
This was the place in the camp that was especially responsible for researching fragments of the devouring power. The last time Eli was here, the progress had already reached 99%, and they were only one step away from success.
"My Lord, the last fragment has been analyzed." In a room, Eli looked at the 18 complete models and smiled.
The devouring power that he had been researching for hundreds of years was finally going to produce some preliminary results.
Eli took a look at the models. The eighteen models were incomparably exquisite, and they looked like they were eighteen independent segments, but only Eli knew how to connect them.
"Everyone has worked hard. Everyone will get 50 magic stones per person." Eli was happy too.
"Lord Roland, this is what we should do." Hearing that there was a reward, the apprentice showed a happy expression.
This period of time was the happiest time for them. Not only were they rewarded with dozens of magic stones every month, but they could also occasionally receive guidance from Lord Roland. Everyone was improving rapidly.
Later on, some people even wanted to join for free, but it was too late.
"Well, thank you for helping me with my work. I'll take my leave first." historical
When he got the models, Eli was very anxious and wanted to test them immediately.
Back in the tower, Eli entered the arcane realm.
He passed by a large magic plants field. At this time, dozens of people were working day and night. In addition to these, there was also the blood bamboo flower Forest that had already taken shape. Unfortunately, it had not evolved to the second ring. The improvement of the magic plants was still good, but it was not as good as before.
Of course, there was also that sapling.
It was about three meters tall and had brown tree trunks and dark green leaves. It looked very ordinary, but its aura was already at its limit, exuding a unique aura.
This plant was quite good for Eli because it could gather elements, which made Eli's elemental conversion process much faster than he had imagined.
Of course, today's focus had nothing to do with this. Holding the models, Eli quickly came to the laboratory and began to copy the models.
A total of 18 models seemed like a lot, but when all the models were out, it was easy to imprint them. The difficult part was how to connect them.
As for how to connect them, from his previous observations, Eli had already discovered that there was a magical structure between the models. This was also why he was so bold as to ask his subordinates for help.
Soon, as the models were gradually connected, a trace of magical fluctuation was slowly produced, and the air began to ripple.
Seeing this familiar fluctuation, a smile appeared on Elie's face. This was the fluctuation that he had observed countless times. After experiencing countless failures, he finally succeeded.
"However, this requires a carrier." Eli's mental power withdrew, and the model collapsed instantly. He still needed a bit more time to flesh everything out.
…
A year later.
Eli walked out of the laboratory, and a black ring appeared on his shoulder. The ring looked very dark in color and absorbed all light.
This was the result of his hard work for a year.
Endless devouring of the first circle seal.
As for its effects, it was similar to the blood bamboo flower. It also absorbed blood to create power, but unlike the blood bamboo flower that could convert blood into mental power, the ring could only convert bloodlines to increase the bloodline compatibility of a warlock.
Eli was also helpless. This devouring power was much more complicated than he had thought, and there was still a lot of research to be done.
As he walked out of the secret realm, Eli immediately called for Tijie.
"Lord Roland, what do you need us to do? " Tijie asked.
"I need the blood of magical beasts. Go and collect some for me."
"Oh?" Tijie nodded her head doubtfully. "do you need to do an experiment with the blood of a magical beast?"
The blood of magical beasts was used for many experiments. There were a lot of them at the campsite. Half an hour later, Tijie brought a huge Bucket of Blood.
"Sir, this is the blood of a zero circle demonic bear. It was just captured yesterday." Tijie replied.
Eli nodded. Then, under Tijie's surprised gaze, he reached his hand into the box.
What surprised Tijie was that as Eli's hand entered the bucket, the black ring on his arm began to emit a mysterious power. Then, the power in the blood disappeared rapidly. What was even more ridiculous was that Eli's aura seemed to have become stronger.
"Not bad." Elie nodded, feeling the power of the bloodline in his body improve slightly. Although it was not much, one had to consider that this was only a zero-circle demonic bear, and there was only a small Bucket of Blood.
It could be said that as long as he had a large amount of blood, he could even be directly promoted to the level of a first-circle Ultimate Warlock.
This was the power of a mage. Sometimes, a breakthrough in knowledge could lead to a rapid increase in power. This was also one of the reasons why mages were powerful.
Power was just a gift as one pursued the truth.
However, Eli had to be careful not to let this secret be known by the warlocks, or else they would do anything to get the ring.
After all, it was always a Warlock's goal to quickly improve their bloodline power.
"Tijie, I'll give you a new mission now. Collect more blood. I need more blood. I will give you all the magic stones you need."
Now that he had the ring, the next step was naturally clear. He had to rely on the camp to collect blood and then quickly level up until the end of the war.
"Yes." Tijie nodded and left.
Very quickly, the news of the blood collection in the camp spread. With generous rewards, a large number of apprentices set out toward the forest to bring back the blood of magical beasts for Eli.
Eli's bloodline compatibility was rapidly increasing.
On the other hand, with the large number of resources that Eli had contributed, several new first-circle Wizards had appeared in the camp. They had also joined in, and the blood of the first circle magical beasts they brought back had further accelerated Eli's progress.
Four years had passed in the blink of an eye.
With the help of the camp, the strength of Eli's bloodline compatibility had already reached 75%.
At this time, the situation outside had also changed greatly. At this time, the shadow lizard sorcerer Academy had almost been swallowed up by the White Tower. The enemy of the blood Alliance had become the White Tower.
White Tower, with the help of Eli's virus, was gradually suppressing the Blood Alliance.
However, the Blood Alliance already had experience in defending against viruses, and they were always able to take measures to prevent the spread of small areas, which made the White Tower's attack less fierce than before.
Everyone was waiting for a decisive battle that could change everything.
Whether it was the blood Alliance or the White Tower, they were all actively preparing.
If the White Tower won, then there would be a new force in the world. If the blood Alliance won, then they would take over the shadow lizard and the White Tower's inheritance and become an even larger force.
Thus, everyone was looking for ways to increase their chances of victory.
Report chapter Comments
At the same time.
A meeting was being held in a huge tent.
The chairman of the White Tower, Marcus, stood in the main position, with a few second-circle warlocks on both sides, as well as a large number of first-circle warlocks. These were the main fighting force of the White Tower at the moment.
"Who can tell us what the current situation is? Kratos, you do it." Marcus asked as he looked at Kratos.
"At the moment, we should be evenly matched. If we want to take the lead in the next battle, this is definitely not enough. We need more forces." Kratos said.
"Well, whoever has an idea can suggest it today," Marcus asked as he looked at the crowd.
"I suggest that we negotiate with the Blood Alliance and surrender some benefits. After all, we are just a new force. It may be disadvantageous for us if we drag this on. Another two-circle sorcerer opposite Kratos said.
"Surrender? That won't do, Jesse. If we show weakness when we're new, it'll be troublesome later on. After all, we don't want our newly established force to be destroyed." Marcus shook his head.
"Alright," Jesse nodded.
"Then why don't we contact some external forces? " Another two-circle sorcerer said. He was one of the few two-circle sorcerers and one of the Deputy Chairmen. His name was Theron.
"That won't do either. The other forces nearby are all watching and won't get involved." Marcus shook his head again.
After the three Deputy chairmen spoke, the other warlocks began to speak. They kept raising their opinions, but they were all rejected.
"Since we can't do it externally, then let's do it internally. The blood Alliance is different from us. They are a force formed by many bloodline families, so it will be easier to break them up from the inside." A first circle sorcerer said.
"Hmm, not a bad idea." Marcus nodded and said, " so we can send people to contact some people from the Blood Alliance and lure them into turning against the alliance with benefits."
"Sir is wise and powerful." Someone immediately agreed.
"Yes, yes, yes!"
"Indeed, indeed."
Everyone nodded in agreement. Someone looked at Kratos and asked, " Sir, I wonder how much more virus Mr. Herman can release. After all, this is quite useful."
"Uh, sure, I'll ask." Kratos didn't expect the topic to suddenly change to Eli, so he nodded.
He took out his token and asked a question.
…
"How much more of the virus can I release at once?"
At this moment, in the room, Eli looked at Kratos's information and blinked. He thought about how many viruses he had released over the years. He had detonated about half of his virus carriers. He had about 3000 carriers left.
"About 3600," After some thought, Eli sent the message over.
…
"Kratos, how many more do you have?" Marcus also asked curiously.
Kratos nodded numbly as if everyone else cared more about Herman than he did. However, when he sensed the message, his eyes widened.
3600?
Wait a minute?
Kratos rubbed his temples and sensed again. It was really 3600.
Did he send it to the wrong person? How many did you set up?
"Kratos, how many are there?" Marcus asked with a frown.
"Uh, 3600?"
"Oh, only 3600. What, 3600?" Marcus nodded, but in the next second, he seemed to have realized something and let out a cry of surprise, his mouth wide open.
3600?
In addition to the virus from before, Herman had set up close to 10,000 virus carriers. Marcus suddenly felt that he had underestimated Herman. What a talent!
Even Marcus was so shocked, not to mention the others, their mouths were also wide open. They were all glad that this fatal poison master was on their side.
"Uh, okay. One month from now. Let Herman release all of them at once. We'll organize an attack then. We'll think about the details later." Said Marcus as he nodded.
"Alright," he said. Kratos nodded and sent the message to Eli.
…
In the blink of an eye, a month had passed. historical
Dark forest.
This was one of the largest bases of the blood Alliance, so the defense here was very tight. There would be Wizards patrolling every day, and so would Colin.
On this day, he wore leather armor and patrolled the forest.
"Sigh, I wonder when the war will end." Colin shook his head and walked onto the main road.
Suddenly, when he passed by an area, he felt that something was wrong. At this time, a green mist was spreading out from the broken tree hole, accompanied by a pungent smell.
"It's a virus," Colin's eyes widened. Having fought against the shadow lizard Warlock Academy and the White Tower for many years, he recognized this virus at a glance.
"I have to go back and report immediately." Colin quickly left the place. They were already very familiar with the handling of the virus. Since they could not solve it, they would isolate the carriers.
"I wonder which guy developed this disgusting thing." Colin's speed was very fast.
However, as soon as he walked out of this area, he saw that the virus had appeared in another place. This surprised him because the virus was usually released singularly.
"It should be a coincidence." He shook his head and recorded this as well.
After recording it, he continued on his way. However, when he saw the third virus, he gradually realized the severity of the problem.
This shouldn't be a coincidence.
"Damn it, there's a big problem."
His expression also became nervous as he looked up at the sky. At this moment, a bird passed by, but to his surprise, the bird was also covered in dark green fungus.
"Damn it!" Collin took a deep breath. He had no doubt that there was a problem.
The virus this time seemed to be far larger in scale and scope than before.
…
Three months later.
Kratos came to the outside of the dark forest. At this time, all the combat members of the White Tower had arrived. There were hundreds of them, and the Warlocks stood in the front.
Kratos was one of the leaders, but when he looked at the forest in front of him, he couldn't help but tremble.
"Is this the dark forest?" The corners of Kratos' mouth twitched.
The forest in front of him was completely different from before. If Kratos remembered correctly, it should be a huge forest, but it was now completely covered by a large area of dark green fungi.
Although a large number of trees were still standing, their insides had long been corroded and riddled with holes, while the outside was in a strange state. Moreover, the forest did not make any sound, as if it was a dead forest.
There was no chirping of birds or the sound of small animals.
"How terrifying!" As a Warlock, Kratos had never seen this before, and he gasped.
Other than Kratos, the other Warlock apprentices gasped in shock.
"Is this the virus?"
"That's too scary. Fortunately, we have the antidote."
"Damn it, I can already imagine the fear of the blood Alliance. Fortunately, Sir Herman is on our side."
"I'm a die-hard fan of Lord Herman from now on."
All the warlocks of the White Tower were shocked by this scene.
"Kratos, let's attack. This is one of their biggest bases. If we occupy this place, the strength of the blood Alliance will be weakened by at least 20%." The two-circle sorcerer, Theron, said.
Kratos nodded.
"Launch the attack!" Kratos turned his head and ordered the people behind him.
In an instant, all the warlocks began to attack the dark forest.
The war began.
However, after the White Tower warlocks entered the forest and started a war with the Blood Alliance, everyone found that the resistance of the Alliance was weakened by more than 30%, which made everyone very confused.
However, after the battle was won, everyone opened the gate of the base and saw a large number of infected apprentices and first-circle warlocks. They seemed to understand what had happened.
"It's a good thing we have Sir Herman."
All the apprentices expressed their gratitude.
Without this virus, the war would have been much more difficult, and many of them would have died. This was all the work of Herman, a Warlock who had not shown his face since the beginning.
Another month passed.
When the White Tower forces attacked another camp, they saw a similar scene to the one in the dark forest.
All the apprentices said the same thing again.
"Thank you, sir Herman."
As time passed, the virus's impact on the Blood Alliance was much greater than expected. Coupled with various means, the internal structure of the Blood Alliance began to collapse.
Some Warlock families requested to give up the battle, some requested to continue the battle, and some had already begun to pack their things and prepare to escape.
In this atmosphere, a year later, with another collapse of the alliance's camp, they finally chose to give up and acknowledged the existence of the White Tower.
The war was finally over.
As Kratos had said, White Tower had really grown up on the corpse of the shadow lizard sorcerer Academy and had become more powerful.
…
Bloodline compatibility 81%.
On the other side, Eli sighed as he sensed the improvement in his bloodline.
It had only been a few years, yet he had managed to raise his bloodline to its current level. It had to be said that this was a very outrageous thing. Of course, it was not just his bloodline. Perhaps it was because of the strengthened bloodline that he had also improved in another aspect. His elemental essence conversion had also reached 59%, and his mental power was at 63 points.
It could only be said that the endless devour spell was indeed not bad.
"But the war is over. I should go back."
The day before, Eli had received the news that the White Tower had won and wanted him to go back to receive the credit.
It was indeed time to go back. He couldn't break through as a mage in a short time, and he didn't know how a Warlock could break through to the second circle. The White Tower should be able to help him.
And this time, when he returned, there would be earth-shaking changes.
"Tijie, gather all the higher-ups in the camp." Eli walked out of the house and found Tijie.
"Yes!"
Before he left, he had to deal with the camp.
Report chapter Comments
At the call of Eli, the camp's higher-ups quickly arrived at the wizard Tower.
In the conference room, Eli sat at the head of the table and looked at the mages under him.
Other than Hae and Tijie, there was also a newly promoted first circle, and most of the others were Level 3 apprentices or even at the peak of the zero circle. These were the changes that Eli had brought to the camp.
"My Lord, why have you summoned us?" Hae asked curiously. After so many years, he had long acknowledged Eli.
"That's right. There must be something important for the Lord to suddenly summon us."
The others nodded in agreement.
"There is indeed something very important." Eli nodded, then threw out a bombshell. "I'll be leaving the camp for a while."
"What? The camp can't do without you." Even Tijie was so shocked that she couldn't say a word.
Eli looked at the crowd and nodded, " I came here for some knowledge and experiments. Now that I'm done, I should leave.
"However, I'm just leaving, not never coming back. I'll still provide potions to the camp, but many things will change, so I need to explain to you."
So it was just a temporary departure. Everyone heaved a sigh of relief. The changes that Eli had made to the camp over the years were obvious to all. It could be said that everyone in the camp could be replaced, but not Eli.
"Three things!" Eli stretched out his hand.
"First, after I leave, she will be the temporary battalion commander."
Eli glanced at Tijie beside him. At this campsite, she was the most trustworthy person. Besides him, she was also the strongest.
The others looked at each other, but no one objected. No one dared to disobey Eli's words.
"The second thing is that I still need you to collect blood for me. I'll still come here every once in a while."
The blood was collected for devouring, and Eli had a vague feeling that breaking through to the second-circle warlock would require a lot of blood.
"The third thing is that you have to help me collect all kinds of mage knowledge."
There were a total of three things, and all of them were very important to Eli. After all, he had been nurturing this camp for so long, and it would be a pity to give it up. It would be better to let him continue operating. Who knows, the camp might be of great use in the future.
"Does anyone have any objections? " With that, Eli looked at the crowd.
"I don't have any objections," Hae was the first to express his opinion.
"Me too."
"Me too."
The others agreed.
"Alright, since there are no objections, the rest of you can leave first. Tijie will stay."
Soon, everyone left, leaving only Tijie.
"My Lord," After everyone left, Tijie said respectfully.
"Hmm, things will be hard after I leave. This is a mage tool that I used to own. It's of little use to me now, but it's a good thing for you. Take it." Eli took off the lightning Python ring. The ring was no longer of any use to him.
"Thank you, my Lord." Tijie nodded and took the ring.
"Alright, there's nothing else. You know the camp very well. The rest is up to you." After that, Eli drove Tijie away.
The next day.
Eli put everything into the arcane realm and prepared to leave.
But as soon as he walked out of the Tower, he saw that both sides of the road were filled with mage apprentices, who were looking at Eli silently.
Eli looked at the crowd and walked straight out of the camp.
It was only when they were about to leave the camp that someone shouted, "Have a safe journey, my Lord."
"Have a safe journey."
Hearing the sounds, Eli turned back to look at the camp, then left without looking back.
…
Ten days later.
According to the address Kratos left for him, Eli arrived at the headquarters of the White Tower, which was once the territory of the shadow lizard sorcerer Academy.
"Forest of Death, this is the place."
Eli stood outside a large forest. In the forest, there were large trees that were like dead trees. They tenaciously extended their branches like the hands of demons.
The Forest of Death was once the territory of the shadow lizard sorcerer Academy.
Eli took a look and strode in, but before he could take a few steps, someone appeared and stopped him.
Two Warlock apprentices in gray leather armor with white bracelets on their hands stopped Eli with a serious look and asked, "This is the territory of the White Tower. Outsiders are not allowed to enter. Please show your identification. If you don't have it, please leave quickly."
Eli blinked as Kratos really didn't give him any identification.
"Well, I'm from the White Tower, but I don't have any identification. Why don't you go inside and check? " Even Eli can't force his way in!
"I'm sorry, we're currently on a patrol mission. You can call for the people inside to bring it to you." The two guards shook their heads. Recently, there were too many outsiders like Eli. Most of them were warlocks who came to see the situation in the White Tower, and nine out of ten were spies.
"Alright," he said. Eli nodded and sent a message to Kratos. Then, he stood aside and waited.
The two guards also stared at him, speechless.
The two guards thought Eli was pretending. Eventually, he'd leave dejectedly like the other spies.
In the blink of an eye, more than ten minutes had passed.
There were still only three people at the quiet entrance of the forest.
"If you don't have the identification, please leave and don't waste time." One of them looked at Eli and said impatiently.
"It's been more than ten minutes." The other person only said, subtly expressing his dissatisfaction.
On the other hand, there was no change in Eli. Suddenly, as if he had sensed something, he looked into the forest and said, "They're here!"
The two guards were stunned for a moment and turned back to look.
As soon as they turned around, they saw dozens of people. One of the men was walking in front with big steps. The scar on his face indicated his identity-Kratos, as Deputy Minister of the White Tower. Another man with a slightly feminine look was Deputy Minister, Theron.
The two guards were stunned, and they turned to look at Eli, who was not far away.
Who the hell are you?
At this moment, Kratos also saw the people outside the forest. His eyes lit up, and he strode toward them.
Eli walked over as well.
Kratos walked up to Eli and gave him a hug. After releasing him, he looked at Eli and said, "Herman, you've really made a great contribution this time."
Herman?
When the two guards saw this scene, their mouths were wide open.
"Herman?" A guard stammered as he looked at the man in disbelief. He couldn't believe that this man was the lethal poison master Herman.
Herman was the one who had made a huge contribution to the war with his virus and magic potion.
Heavens, what did he do?
The guards suddenly felt their vision go dark. If master Herman really blamed them, they would be finished.
The other guard had a similar expression, his face filled with despair.
It wasn't just the two guards. At that moment, the other Deputy Minister, Theron, and the other people who had followed him were also looking at Eli curiously. Everyone still remembered the fungal virus that covered the forest. It was simply terrifying.
This was also the first time that everyone had seen Herman in the long war.
…
"It's just a small contribution,"
In the face of Kratos 'praise, Eli was a little humble.
"Don't be humble. Your contribution this time is even greater than mine. If we didn't have your virus and antidote, who knows how many more people would have died? Let's go and take a look at our forces." Kratos said with a smile, emphasizing the words "our."
"Alright," Eli nodded.
"What, did these two guards stop you? Do you need to deal with it?" Kratos suddenly looked at the two guards and questioned them with a serious expression.
The two guards' legs instantly went weak, and they looked at Eli almost pleadingly.
"It's nothing, just two very conscientious guards. There's no need to deal with them." Said Eli, shaking his head.
He had never taken these two guards to heart.
"That's good." Kratos nodded. He knew that Eli was not a brutal person.
"Hello, I'm Theron, a Deputy Minister like Kratos. It's a pleasure to meet you." At this moment, the feminine-looking man also walked over and smiled as he extended his hand.
"Good day, my Lord." Eli shook his hand.
"Don't need the formality. You can just call me Theron." Theron looked like a cautious person, but his tone was very gentle.
"Yes, sir Deputy Minister." Eli nodded. One could not take polite words seriously.
"You know the rules." Theron laughed. historical
"Since Herman is back, we can start the first round of the meeting," Kratos said with a smile.
"Yes!"
"What?" Eli looked at Kratos.
"Oh, I forgot to tell you. You're now one of the 12 councilmen. This is what you deserve." Kratos said with a smile.
Eli nodded. This time, he was truly a senior figure in this new faction.
Soon, everyone returned. Kratos and Theron walked in the front, with Eli behind them and the others behind them.
Along the way, the others looked at him curiously. Some even kept their distance from him as if they were afraid that they would be infected with all sorts of terrifying viruses.
However, there were also some people who looked at Eli in admiration. It could be said that at this moment, Eli's fame could almost be compared to any Deputy Minister. In fact, his name was even greater in the Blood Alliance.
Soon, the group passed through the dark forest, and Eli could hear the sounds around him gradually increasing. After walking a few hundred meters, a small town appeared before his eyes.
"This is the White Tower?"
Eli's eyes lit up.
In front of him was a huge town.
There were Gothic-style buildings everywhere. One by one, the buildings rose from the ground. The sharp towers seemed to pierce the sky. There were no walls here, and there were no guards.
Of course, these were not the most eye-catching things. The most eye-catching thing was the Mage tower in the center of the building.
The tower was white in color and was a hundred meters tall. Its huge size was the largest building that Eli had ever seen in this world, and it was so eye-catching that he could even vaguely see it in the forest.
"It used to belong to the shadow lizard, and it was black in color. Later, the chairman felt that it didn't fit the name of our force, so he changed it to white. It's so funny," Theron said with a smile.
"Hahaha!" Kratos couldn't help but laugh when he heard that.
"Eli didn't expect such a thing to happen, so this should be the territory of the shadow lizard sorcerer Academy, and now it belonged to the White Tower.
Speaking of the shadow lizard, Eli didn't forget about Rock's son, Ross. He could sense that Ross was still alive. The interesting thing was that he was captured and imprisoned in the White Tower's prison, and it didn't seem to be in a good state. He would have to wait until the storm was over to get him out.
"Yes, let's go in. I've already informed the others. We should be able to hold our first meeting soon." Kratos said to Eli.
Following Kratos, they entered this place.
As expected of a force, the number of acolytes here was far from what the Warlock Academy of the past could compare to. Just by walking along the road, there were probably hundreds of people. There were also some in the first circle, but there was no one in the second circle other than the two beside him.
On the way, Eli felt helpless.
Due to the clamoring of the people behind him, the news of Herman's return quickly spread.
Soon, a large group of apprentices surrounded both sides and looked at Eli.
"So this is Herman? He looks average!" Someone asked.
"He looks better than you." A female apprentice cast a glance at him.
"Even now, I still have nightmares of those green fungi. It's too scary."
Soon, more and more people gathered around them. Kratos smiled helplessly. This guy, Eli, was really famous.
"Disperse, disperse!" Kratos dispersed loudly, and the surrounding people began to disperse.
After the crowd dispersed, Kratos brought Eli to a mage Tower.
"This Tower is for you. You can live here, and of course, you can go anywhere else."
In front of him was a mage Tower that was more than ten meters long. It was black all over, but there were many plants climbing on it, and there was a fence around it. It was a good place, and Eli was very satisfied.
"This place will do." Eli nodded.
"Okay, you should unpack first. We'll inform you of the meeting later. Oh, and this is your identification." Kratos nodded and threw a new token to Eli.
This token was of a much higher grade than the previous ones. It was made of aske copper, a precious ore. There was a White Tower carved on the surface, which looked very exquisite.
"This is a representative's identity card. I've kept it here for a long time, and it's finally returned to its original owner." Kratos answered with a smile.
"Thank you, sir." Eli took the token. Returning to the faction was much smoother than he had expected.
"It's okay. You deserve this. I'll be leaving then," Kratos smiled.
"I'm leaving too. I've finally met our poison master today." Theron, who had been following them, also left with a smile. The others also gradually dispersed.
The crowd dispersed, and Eli also walked into the Tower.
There were four floors inside the tower. It didn't look big from the outside, but the area wasn't small at all. After a simple cleaning, Eli could start living there.
At night.
Lying on the bed, Eli looked around at the unfamiliar environment and took out the token that belonged to this place.
Looking at the White Tower on the token shimmering in the dark, Eli knew that from today onwards, his life would once again enter a new stage.
…
In the next few days, Eli didn't go out either, he just stayed in the Tower.
Three days later, Eli received the news of a meeting being held the next day.
The next day.
After arranging his clothes in front of the mirror, he walked out of the Tower and headed towards the White Tower in the center.
The White Tower was in the middle of the town, and there were two guards at the door, both wearing the same uniform. They constantly checked the identity of the people who entered, and Eli went up and took out his token.
"Are you parliament member Herman? " The guard held the token and asked in surprise.
Eli nodded.
"Please follow me, my Lord." The guard handed the token to Eli respectfully, then walked into the White Tower.
After entering the White Tower, Eli finally realized how big the area was. Each floor was at least a few hundred square meters in size. The first floor was responsible for some basic daily work in the camp, so there were many people.
It was obvious that the meeting was not held here. The guard brought Eli upstairs.
Soon, after passing through the second floor, which was in charge of internal affairs, and the third floor, which was in charge of external affairs, Eli arrived on the fourth floor and was led into a meeting room by the guards.
It was a huge conference room.
There was a huge long table with a red cloth on it. A huge high-back chair was placed on the main seat, and fifteen smaller high-back chairs were placed on both sides.
Of course, what was strange to Eli was that other than the three chairs near the main seat, there were numbers on the back of the other chairs, from one to twelve.
There weren't many people here at the moment, only about four or five. The ones in the second circle were Kratos and Theron, whom Eli was familiar with.
"Herman, your position is over there!" Seeing that Eli had arrived, Kratos pointed to a chair with the number eight behind it.
He nodded and sat down without talking to the others. Instead, the others looked at him curiously. It was their first time seeing him.
In the blink of an eye, another half an hour had passed.
At this moment, fifteen out of the sixteen seats had been filled. Only the central main seat was empty. Meanwhile, Eli looked around and realized that apart from the three Deputy Ministers who were second-circle, the others were all first-circle. This gave him a clearer understanding of the White Tower's situation.
Time slowly passed.
After half an hour, the door slowly opened, and a man with white hair walked in. He looked at the crowd and then sat directly on the main seat.
It went without saying that he was the chairman of the White Tower, the second circle wizard Marcus.
"It's a pleasure to see everyone." Marcus sat down and smiled at the crowd. The atmosphere was peaceful.
He also looked at Eli and said, " you're Herman, right? Nice to meet you. Your virus played a big role in the war."
"This is what I should do." Eli nodded humbly.
The others also looked over curiously. It was their first time seeing Herman.
"Haha, no need to be humble." Marcus laughed and looked around, " "Since everyone is here, let's begin. This is the first time the White Tower Council is being held, and I will be the chairman. historical
"The first item is the future development of the White Tower, the second item is the work distribution of the members, and the third item is to reward everyone for your outstanding contribution to the war. I hope no one has any objections."
"No!" Everyone said.
"Well, very good. Then, I'll start with the first item.
"the White Tower is a new force, so the first thing we should do is to develop internally, not expand. So, for the next period of time, our core will be developed so that we will have many measures in various aspects. I will explain this to everyone one by one."
Marcus took out a document and started explaining everything one by one. After that, the councilmen would vote to decide. At this moment, Eli also knew what the numbers behind him were for.
It turned out that this was what determined the warlocks' position in the Parliament. The leader had the right to veto and ten votes, while the Deputy Minister had five votes. After that, there were four votes from number 1 to 3, and three votes from number 4 to 6, and the votes decreased in turn.
So, Eli was number eight, with two votes. He could sit here entirely because of his great contribution to the war and Kratos' influence.
The direction of development had been discussed for a long time, so naturally, there was nothing to say. Basically, everyone agreed.
Very quickly, the meeting moved on to the second topic, and everyone was assigned their duties.
"Theron, you're in charge of all the warlocks in the organization. Kratos, you're in charge of the distribution of resources. Jesse, you're in charge of all the external forces."
After the three Deputy Ministers were assigned their duties, it was the representative's turn. Eli was also very curious about what duties he would be assigned.
After the Warlocks in front were assigned, it was soon Eli's turn.
"Herman, since you were Kratos's subordinate, you'll take on the part of his responsibilities. From today on, you'll be in charge of the dispatch of all the magical plants and potions in the organization." Marcus said as he looked at Eli.
"Alright," Eli nodded.
This was already quite a lucrative job. After all, although the White Tower was a new force, its scale was much larger than the previous camp, and the benefits were not small at all.
Soon, it was time to talk about the rewards. Basically, they were all the remains of the shadow lizard Academy, and when it came to Eli, the reward was 20000 magic stones, and the shadow lizard laboratory was given to him.
Eli was already very satisfied. After all, his laboratory had been set up decades ago, and much of the experimental equipment was very broken. Now that he had a better one, he felt much more relaxed.
After the rewards were given, the meeting was considered to have ended. Marcus said a few more words and left.
The others also left one after another.
Just as Eli was about to leave, he was stopped by Kratos.
"Herman, let's have a chat."
"Alright!" Eli nodded.
"I haven't seen you for such a long time, but your aura has grown very quickly!"
In a room, Kratos was holding a cup of coffee and looking at Eli with a smile.
"Sigh, I've been training while we were waiting," Eli replied. Compared to ten years ago, he was much stronger. Currently, he was only at the middle stage of the first-circle.
"Well, this is a good thing. After all, you're the eighth representative of the White Tower, so strength is still important. However, with me here, I will also protect you." Kratos nodded.
"Of course. After all, I've been following sir for years." Eli replied.
It was a conversation but also a test.
Hearing the satisfactory answer, Kratos nodded in satisfaction. This answer was enough.
"Yes, relax. In terms of status, we're all a part of the Parliament. Everyone's status is the same. Moreover, the White Tower has just begun, and the main conflict is with the outside world. You just have to take care of yourself." Kratos nodded.
"Yes."
"But congratulations, the eighth representative Herman. If you have any questions, you can ask me." Kratos smiled and patted Eli's shoulder.
"Um, Sir, I really do have a question."
"Oh?" Kratos was curious.
"My Lord, I would like to ask, how do warlocks break through to the second circle?" Eli asked Kratos. This was also the purpose of his return.
"Breaking through to the second circle!" Kratos thought for a moment and then replied, "For most warlocks, it's still a matter of bloodline.
"The bloodline level determines the upper limit of some warlocks, just like the shadow lizard warlocks. The basic limit is the second circle, but you have a first-circle bramble tree demon. This might be very difficult." Kratos pursed his lips and said, "Of course, it's not impossible to break through the bloodline, but it's very difficult. This requires your bloodline to be extremely dense. Dig deep into your bloodline and break through the limits of your bloodline to find a deeper connection."
"What if the level of the bloodline source is sufficient?" After all, the shadow Dragon had a four-circle bloodline.
"Of course, that is another story. This information is very precious, but I'll tell you directly.
"Since it's a breakthrough, then I have to mention the difference between the first and second-circle warlocks. A second circle Warlock is divided into three stages, the early, middle, and late stages. Every stage requires the warlocks to condense a bloodline core.
"There are two ways to form a bloodline core. One is to increase the quality of the bloodline and then naturally form a bloodline core. The other is to rely on the accumulation of a large amount of blood."
"Accumulation?" Eli was puzzled.
"That's right. It's to accumulate. As long as there's enough blood, you can slowly condense a bloodline core. However, this requires too much blood, so most warlocks still choose the first path." Kratos explained.
"I see," Eli said.
It seemed that the difference between a two-circle warlock and a one-circle warlock lay in the bloodline core.
"Yes, after forming the first bloodline core, you can be called a two-circle Warlock. At this point, the power of a Warlock's bloodline is highly concentrated. Whether it's explosive power or control, it's on a completely different level from a first-circle Warlock. But why did you suddenly think of this?" Kratos took the coffee and asked curiously.
"It's nothing. I'm just curious," Eli mumbled.
As the two of them chatted, there was a knock on the door.
"Come in!" Kratos said.
The door opened, and two familiar people walked in. They were Rawls and Evena, whom Eli had not seen for many years.
They didn't change much except for a scar on Rawls' face.
"Sir Kratos," The two of them said to Kratos.
Kratos nodded, then turned to look at Eli and said, "Now that you're responsible for so many things, of course, you have to have subordinates. I'll leave Rawls and Evena to you. You can order them as much as you want."
Rawls, "…"
In fact, he had already heard about what Eli had done when he was out on a mission. At first, he wanted to work hard to surpass him, but as time passed, the gap grew bigger and bigger, and he had to accept his fate.
This was especially true when he knew that Eli had become a representative. Today, it was Kratos who called for him. He never thought that he would be Eli's subordinate.
How could he not feel aggrieved?
"Yes, my lord." On the other hand, Evena agreed without any awkwardness.
"Rawls, why don't you speak?"
"Fine," Rawls gritted his teeth and said.
"Well, you're already very familiar with each other, so I won't say anything more. You can assign their own work after you leave." Kratos nodded. historical
"Mm, then I'll take my leave, Milord."
Soon, Eli left the room with Rawls and Evena and then did a simple assignment.
With Evena in charge of potions and Rawls in charge of magic plants, the two of them had returned to their old jobs.
As for what Eli was doing?
Of course, he was slacking off. Anyway, he already had free subordinates, so it would be a waste not to use them.
And the path that Eli was about to take was obvious.
That was to hide in the White Tower, keep a low profile and make himself stronger and stronger, and collect mage items. As for the rest, he would leave it to fate.
Besides, Kratos had also told Eli how to break through his bloodline. Since a warlock could not break through in a short time, it was better to let his bloodline go further and raise his upper limit first instead of constantly making up for his shortcomings.
As for the two ways to break through …
The first option was not bad, but it was not suitable for Eli. After all, it would take him too much time to study his bloodline. He needed to devote his time to studying mage knowledge.
The second path was just right for Eli. He could use the devouring power to accumulate the power of his bloodline.
As for the blood, he would have to rely on the mage camp to collect it slowly. All he had to do was sit in the White Tower and wait. He would go there once in a while, but of course, it might take some time.
But Eli was very patient, and he would take it slow.
…
Three years later.
Eli sat in the office in the White Tower, looking at the majestic development of the forces outside the window, and took a deep breath.
His bloodline compatibility was already at 91%.
In reality, 90% was enough to break through, but later on, Eli realized that the bloodline compatibility's limit seemed to be 95%. It was just that most people would choose to break through at 90% because, after 90%, every 1% increase would be much more difficult than before.
So, Eli chose to continue waiting.

160 Second-Circle Warlock
Time was fair to everyone because the time that passed for Eli was the same as everyone else.
In the blink of an eye, another ten years had passed, Eli had also passed through the initial stage of chaos in this newly born faction, and the White Tower had also begun to gradually become orderly.
At this time, he was already the seventh member of the White Tower Council. This was because one of the previous council members had died in a battle, so the subsequent council members were promoted.
Of course, this was not worth mentioning to Eli. As a mage, his spiritual force was at 61%, his elemental essence conversion was at 66%, and he had officially stepped into the late stage of the first circle. However, he seemed to have made more progress in the direction of his bloodline. He had already reached 95 points of compatibility and could break through at any time.
This wasn't what Eli wanted. He was a mage, after all, but he made more progress as a warlock than a mage. He was probably the first one to break through in his bloodline even though he was already on the path of a mage.
!!
The arrow had already been nocked and had no choice but to be released.
Therefore, more than a year later.
After applying for leave, Eli came to the iris campsite, just like every few years.
"What a great change!"
It was different from thirteen years ago. The camp was in a completely different situation.
Standing on the tree outside the mage camp, he saw a large camp in front of him. The area was two to three times larger than before, and the number of people was also twice as large.
Except for a few mages who grew naturally in the wizard camp, the rest were all foreign mages. Fortunately, they were well managed. There were now four mages in the original camp, so they had the ability to take care of everything.
After a brief look, Eli jumped down from the tree and walked into the camp.
"Lord Roland is back!"
Someone saw Eli and shouted loudly. The crowd also looked in his direction.
After living here for a while, they all knew that there was a mysterious battalion commander in this camp. On average, he would only return once every few years, but he was undoubtedly the person in charge of the camp. He also had a channel for magic plants and potions, so he was an indispensable person in the camp.
"Go and find Tijie. Tell her to come to the Mage tower. I want to see her." He gave an order to someone and went straight to the Tower.
Half an hour later, Eli saw Tijie again.
"Lord Roland." Tijie lowered her head humbly.
"Well, you've managed the camp well during this period of time. You deserve a reward. Eli nodded, then threw out three bottles of potions, and said, " this is the blood bamboo flower potion. It can greatly increase one's mental power. I suggest that you use one bottle each time at most."
"Thank you, my Lord." Tijie's eyes brightened as she caught the potion.
"It's nothing. How's the preparation for the blood pool?" he asked, shaking his head.
The blood pool was built under Eli's orders. The blood collected by the camp would be stored inside, and Eli would come back to absorb it once in a while. Otherwise, it would be impossible to reach the limit of 95%. The last time he was here was three years ago.
"My Lord, it's ready," Tijie replied.
"I'll be using it tomorrow. Also, no one is allowed to get within 500 meters of it."
He only had one purpose for returning this time, and that was to break through to become a second-circle Warlock.
"Alright," Tijie nodded her head. She already knew that Eli had also trained in the path of a warlock. However, she was very confused about this. After all, a mage's life would not increase if one did not become an actual warlock. What was the point of simply improving their bloodline power without becoming an actual warlock?
A normal mage could live up to 200 years old, but in this strange world, they could only live up to 130 or 140 years old. That was why all mages tried their best to break through to the higher level to gain longevity, but Elin did not seem to care. He was really a strange wizard.
"Then you can leave first. I'll go take a look at other places."
After sending off Tijie, Eli came to the laboratory here. As a pure mage's laboratory, there was only one mission here at the moment, and that was to continue studying the fragments of the devouring spell.
Eli gave them the task of studying the first and second stages of the spell. The later stages were up to Eli himself. After all, this was very important knowledge and he couldn't just throw it around.
After settling the laboratory's problem, Eli learned more about the camp's situation, then returned to his room and waited quietly.
…
The next day.
At the agreed time, she arrived.
"Your Excellency, please." Tijie led the way.
The blood pool was actually built entirely for the convenience of Eli. It was built on a small hill beside the campsite, in a naturally formed karst cave.
After passing through the tunnel that was covered in layers of spell formations, the two of them entered the mountains.
In front of them was a huge stone door that was seven to eight meters in size. Not only did they use part of their alchemy knowledge, but they also used a large number of materials, which were paid for by the camp.
Since they had been here many times, the two of them directly pushed the door open.
As soon as the door opened, the smell of blood immediately rushed into Eli's nose. In front of him was a very large stone room, and in the center of the stone room was a huge blood pool.
The radius was about seven to eight meters, and the depth was about the same. There was also a tube on the dome that was flowing with a large amount of blood. The camp had thrown the blood in from other places.
This was Eli's blood pool, a pool of blood accumulated by an entire camp. It was also the driving force behind Eli's constant breakthroughs.
"You can go out now. Guard the nearby area." Eli said to Tijie.
"Yes." Tijie nodded her head.
After Tijie left, Eli summoned a large number of skeletons again. The Sorcerer model was activated, and a large number of skeletons began to shatter and reform. After that, a giant skeleton that was five meters tall appeared at the gate, and the aura it emitted also exceeded the first circle, but it was not as strong as the second circle.
This was the spell that Eli had created by allying with the mages.
"Guard this place and don't allow anyone to enter. If anyone tries to break in, kill them," ordered Eli.
The giant skeleton didn't answer. It just stood guard at the door.
Eli nodded. Compared to humans, he trusted the undead more. As long as you control them, they would never betray you.
After setting up everything, Eli slowly walked towards the blood pool.
Seeing the blood rush to the top of his head, he resisted the disgust and took off his clothes before jumping in. historical
Unlike water, the blood here was extremely viscous. He sank straight into it like he was in a swamp.
As he sank, Eli closed his eyes as well. At the same time, The Black ring on his hand was like a black hole, constantly devouring the blood around him. At the same time, Eli's bloodline power was also constantly strengthening.
A magical change was happening.
Just like that, it was as if Eli had fallen into a deep sleep. Outside the door, the skeleton stood guard without a word. Outside the mountain, a large number of apprentices were patrolling as well. The mission they received was to not let even a single soul into the cave.
…
Half a day later.
Outside the mountain, all the patrolling members suddenly felt a tremor and turned their heads.
"What happened?" Everyone was shocked because they felt as if there was a monster growing in the mountain. The powerful force made them, who were apprentices, tremble.
"Damn it, is there a beast inside?"
Some people suddenly realized that the small animals on the mountain were running down the mountain as if they had seen a ghost. It was as if there was something terrifying.
For a moment, noise and chaos became the theme of this place. Everyone was confused and at a loss, not knowing what to do. Suddenly, a low roar like a Dragon's Roar sounded.
"A Dragon?"
Everyone was scared stiff.
However, the Dragon's Roar seemed to only last for a few seconds. After that, the aura that had frightened everyone earlier had long disappeared. However, it seemed that with this fluctuation, the surrounding forest also began to riot.
A small beast tide was brewing, and this was something that no one in the campsite had anticipated. Tijie quickly gathered the people in the campsite and stood on the wall, ready to fight.
Just when everyone thought that the beast tide was about to begin.
Suddenly, a Dragon's Roar came from the mountain not far away.
Everyone was dumbfounded, but when they turned around, they suddenly realized that the beast tide had dispersed.
"What?"
Everyone's mouth was wide open, followed by loud shouts to celebrate the end of the danger that didn't really start.
