"What do you mean by that?"

"Saruman and I were professors in the same year's review, and at that time we were full of ambition for the future, especially Saruman, who had reached the point of being almost obsessed with magic, and hoped to be able to make a name for himself in this field, but just when he was just beginning to prepare to implement his lofty goal, something happened that shook the entire wizarding world - Houdini actually broke the seal of the Demon King, which was a great blow to Saruman at that time, and for a while he was depressed, and even used wine to drown his sorrows, Feeling that his life seemed to have completely lost its meaning, several of our friends tried their best to persuade him at that time, and once I drank with him, maybe a few more drinks, and then said casually, "Saruman, your talent is not below Houdini, since he can do it, I believe you will be able to do it!" At that time, I actually just wanted to encourage him, but I didn't expect that the speaker was unintentional, and the listener was intentional, perhaps it was from that day that Saruman completely embarked on a wrong path of no return... Alas" Professor Sneijder couldn't help but let out a long sigh, his tone full of regret and self-reproach.

"That's how he started researching about the Demon King?" The princess asked.

"Well, at first we didn't notice it, but we were secretly happy to see him regain his spirits, but then we gradually realized that something was wrong with him, and he refused to tell him how to ask him, and by the time we really understood what was going on, it was already too late..."

"How the hell did he find the Demon King's Soul?"

"I don't know, all of his actions were carried out secretly from the rest of us, so no one knows the details, but once he drank too much and then unintentionally said nothing, as if there was a great person secretly helping him."

"Who's that guy?"

"I don't know, Saruman still refuses to reveal his name, I feel that he seems to be a little afraid of the other party, and he looks nervous at the mention of the other party."

"Are there any other clues about the other party?"

"No, soon after that time, Saruman merged with the Demon King and began to eat away at the entire Wizards' Guild step by step, and we were too late to fear him, where could we hear what he had to say."

"You didn't even want to stop him?" Antonla asked.

"Of course I thought about it, not only did I think about it, but some people also took action, but the results all ended in failure, at first Saruman was relatively restrained, and when he really controlled the situation, he began to openly exclude dissidents, not to mention opposing him, even if the slightest disobedience to his wishes was either imprisoned or executed, and even became a test object for magic experiments, the cruelty of the means was completely beyond the imagination of outsiders, and after a long time, the entire wizards' guild became his private property, Everyone can only survive under his hands..."

"And that includes you?" Anton said with a disdainful face, feeling that it does not have a good opinion of the vast majority of humans except me, and will inevitably sneer at the first opportunity.

"We... It's also forced to be helpless." To say that Professor Sneijder can see that he still has a bit of scholarly dignity, hearing Antonla's words, his face can't help but blush slightly, and Professor Harry, who is sitting next to him, obviously does not have such a high level of self-cultivation, and is busy whispering for himself.

"If it weren't for your greed for life and fear of death, who would have forced you?" Anton pulled the pressure step by step.

"This..."Professor Harry's expression was suddenly a little embarrassed, and I couldn't help but feel a little unbearable when I saw this, so I hurriedly stepped forward to start a round.

"There's no point in arguing about that now, so how did you end up locked up again?"

"Oh, that's because we don't want to help the Demon King anymore... That is, Saruman has completed the plan of the "Demon Gate". Sneijder replied.

"The Gate of the Demon Realm?" I wondered.

"Well, since the resurrection, the Demon King has been bent on overthrowing the rule of the gods and establishing a world that belongs to the Demon Race, but it is too difficult to accomplish these on its own, so it plans to open the entrance and exit to the Demon Realm, release the demons inside, and help it complete the great cause of unification, for the past twenty years, it has been secretly engaged in this research using the resources of the entire Wizard Guild, and it seems that it is almost successful, and then we even succeeded in summoning a few trolls, but the destructive power of those guys is too great, Regardless of the damage to the test site and equipment, we have paid hundreds of dead and wounded just to subdue them, and if the gate of the Demon Realm is completely opened, the consequences are unimaginable, out of fear of this, I and several other professors tried to persuade Saruman to postpone this plan, but it was indifferent, and finally killed the professors who took the lead, and I escaped death because of my old feelings, and then I was imprisoned in the dungeon with Professor Harry and others, living a dark life until now."

"And where is the location of this Demon Gate?"

"Just below the Wizard's Tower, there's a secret basement that was originally used to store valuable documents and dangerous magical ingredients, but has been transformed into a testing ground by Saruman since the beginning of the Demon Gate project."

"So, there should be information about the Demon King and the guy who helped Saruman?"

"I can't say for sure, but Saruman has a secret room there that no one is allowed to enter on weekdays, so maybe there's the answer you're looking for."

"Then can you please take us there at once!?"

"It's okay~" In this way, our group immediately got up and rushed to the Wizard's Tower, all the way I had an inexplicable excitement in my heart, if there is really that secret room, I can really find relevant information about the Demon King and that mysterious person, which will undoubtedly be of great help to prevent the resurrection of the Demon King.

"Could the mysterious person you said helped Saruman be the same Rocky he told him before he died?" On the way, the princess quietly came to me and asked.

"Quite possibly."

"If you can really do this, then the other party's origin must be not small, can you guess its origin?"

"Here's the trouble, in the past two days, I've searched and scraped my belly, and I have recalled all the relevant gods and demons who can do this, but there is no one named Rocky."

"Could it be some up-and-comer, like a human like Houdini?"

"It's unlikely, if that's the case, the last time I met Vadeseus, it couldn't have said nothing, and ordinary humans shouldn't have that ability, to tell you the truth, I've been wondering if Houdini really broke the seal of the Demon King with his own strength a long time ago."

"Do you suspect that someone is secretly helping?"

"That's right, in fact, lately, I've always felt that there seems to be an invisible hand secretly manipulating our every move, such as the last time in the Five Kings City, that Horcrux was obviously hidden there by someone, and it seems to be specially led to get us."

"Do you think that Rocky did it?"

"It's not impossible, in fact, I felt some strange memories on the Horcrux that time, and there was a person who couldn't see clearly, and my intuition told me that I knew this guy, and I was very familiar with it, but I couldn't remember who it was~"

"Rocky... Do you think we misheard it at the time, or maybe Saruman didn't have time to say the other person's full name?" The princess said with her hand on her forehead.

"Ahh

"Here we are." It was here that Sneijder's words interrupted my thoughts, pulling me back into the real world, and looking up to see that we had unconsciously arrived at the ruins of the Wizard's Tower, which had long since become a mess due to the last battle, and only the large magic circle on the ground vaguely reminded me of its former majesty. I saw Snead come to the northwest corner of the hall, his hands were sealed, and his mouth was chanting, and it didn't take long for a small glowing magic array to appear on the ground, only to see that it kept spinning, and then it became bigger and bigger, and it became bigger and bigger, and finally it turned into a round door.
