Chapter Twenty-Six: Archmage Bertalus
Etis led Berthalus to Kel'thugad's house in a hurry, and when he reached the door, he said to Bertalus: "Your Excellency, there is Kelthugad's house ahead. β
After Etis finished speaking, he was about to break in directly, but was stopped by Bertalus, seeing that he was stopped, Etis turned his head to look at Bertalus and was a little puzzled: "What's the matter?
Seeing this, Bertarous shook his head and said, "It seems that you still have a lot to learn, and you dare to trespass into a mage's house? and you are also an archmage? Every mage will arrange defensive spells in his own home, and you are completely going to die?"
Bertarus stood at the door and observed for a while, then walked directly forward and used the detection spell, and sure enough, under Bertarus's detection spell, at least dozens of runes emerged, only to see that some of these runes were on the ground, some on the wall, and they had to be in the air.
Etis looked at these runes that suddenly appeared, his scalp was numb, and he thanked Bertarous with some fear: "Thank you, Your Excellency Bertalus, if you hadn't stopped me, I would definitely be attacked by these magic runes that don't know the effect." β
Bertarous waved his hand and said absently, "Protect the mage apprentice." This is the responsibility of every old master of Dalaran, otherwise why do you think Dalaran has been passed down for so long? It is because of the importance and cultivation of fresh blood. β
Thanking Bertalus again, Etis looked at the runes and asked, "Your Excellency, can you lift these runes?"
"Why do you want to lift?" asked Bertarus.
"Don't make a fuss...... How are we going to get in if we don't get it off?"
Bertalus patiently explained and looked at Etis: "This is Dalaran, if you want to visit a mage and knock on the door directly, we can go in anyway, if he is not behind the scenes then he will come out to welcome us, if he is he will also come to 'welcome' us, don't you think it is better to deal with our two lone mages than to face a mage in a city, right?"
After listening to Bertalus's explanation, Etis suddenly realized, carefully bypassed the dangerous runes, and knocked lightly on the door.
Shortly after knocking on the door, when Etis was about to knock again, the door suddenly and slowly opened, and seeing this, Etis immediately raised his vigilance, but did not relax again, because the door was empty.
Etis and Berthalus looked into the room through the doorway and found that the whole room could not even get sunlight in, except for the sunlight shining through the doorway, the whole room was dark, although there was no one at the door, but they both knew that it was the master who was inviting them.
Thinking that he would face a Legendary-level archmage as a rookie, Etis couldn't help but be a little nervous, looked at the room and said to Bertalus, "Your Excellency...... Otherwise, let's find some more people, and I'm afraid the two of us will be in danger. β
"I'm afraid it's too late now...... I kind of believe you now, I feel a dark magic looming in the room, I don't remember Kel'thugad studying dark magic, he must have a problem...... But since we came to the door, he must have known that he was exposed, and if he left like this, I was afraid that he would never be able to catch him again, and if Gianna was really in his hands, he would definitely not last long...... If you're scared, leave yourself, and I'll go check it out. β
Seeing Bertalus walk in like this, Etis didn't hesitate to follow behind Bertalus, and thought to himself: "Even if I go first, I'm afraid I won't be able to find anyone else to help, it's not easy for me to persuade you to agree to come and see, it's strange that others are willing to come with me...... It's better to go in with you like this, maybe I can help, even if the fight makes the movement bigger, maybe everyone will know. β
Etis had a good idea, but it was destined to disappoint him, and as soon as he and Bertalus entered the room, the door slowly closed, and when the door closed, the situation in the room gradually became clear. After seeing the scene inside completely, he was very surprised to find that what kind of room was in front of him, and the tall spire standing in the middle was Kelsegadd's mage tower at all!
"This is trouble...... Beltarus frowned.
"Your Excellency Bertarous?"
"Let's go, the matter has come to this, and now there is no way to turn back, but the other party is not good, it seems that the only way to exit now is to demolish the tower first. β
Etis followed Bertarus firmly into the Spell Tower, and as soon as he entered the first floor, he found a middle-aged mage standing inside, and when he saw Etis and their arrival, he said in a mocking voice: "Did the Council send you?
The middle-aged mage slowly walked up to them, looked at them slowly, and then asked with a murderous face, "Just the two of you?"
Although Bertarus was mentally prepared, he was still a little surprised: "I didn't expect you to be really you......"
"What do you mean, weren't you sent by the Council?"
Hearing Bertarus's words, Kel'thugad was a little surprised for a moment, then glanced at Etis and continued: "Hmm... It seems that there is some misunderstanding, but it doesn't seem to matter...... I'm here, Bertarus, what can you do with me?"
"Arrest you, of course, and hand it over to the Speaker. β
"Hahaha!!, up to you?"
As soon as the words fell, an instantaneous 'Great Splitting Technique' shot out directly at Bertarous and Aetis, and the green light seemed to be mixed with the breath of death rushing towards them!
[Drip... Legendary Spell - Grand Cleavage ...... Analyzing...... The Great Cleavage is an upgraded version of the Cleavage that can directly break down the target it hits into the most basic particles, so please be careful to avoid it by the Supreme Guardians.
Hearing Alpha's reminder and sensing the arrival of the crisis, Etis was about to use the power of time to fight desperately, but Bertarous was faster than him, and the same Great Cracking Technique was directly aimed at the magic that attacked him.
"Bang!"
There was a muffled sound, and I saw that the two great cracking techniques were intertwined with each other to cancel out, and then slowly disappeared.....
"You ....."
"Don't be so nervous, Kel'thugad, did it surprise you that I used a large cleavage?"
"Sure enough...... You've made the cut, no wonder you're so confident, but don't be so complacent, Archmage Bertalus!"
Bertarous looked at Kel'thugad quietly and said with a little nostalgia: "You know Kel'thugad, you are very talented, more talented than us, you in the same period, I, Vargas, only I am the least talented, the slowest to advance, I really envy you..."
"It's just...... Why would you do such a thing!" Bertalus's voice grew angry.
"In the past, you secretly studied spiritism, and His Excellency the Speaker warned you, don't study it too much, that kind of magic that violates the laws of nature will make people fall, we didn't blame you that time, after all, the mage is a seeker of knowledge, but I didn't expect you to destroy your research materials on the surface, but behind the scenes, you are still studying this evil magic, and you are still experimenting with human beings! Look at the terrible dark magic you are exuding all over your body now, why don't you listen!"
Kel'thugad looked at the angry Bertalus and fell into the memory, and after a while, he said faintly: "Bertalus...... You're still so naΓ―ve, you don't understand anything......"
