Chapter 142: Karl and Ress (Finale)

"Son, if you decide, let's go. "The old man in front of him said to 'him', no, to Karthas.

Levi was stunned for a long time before he recognized that the old man in front of him who was about to decay turned out to be Karthas's father!

The same Grand Arcanist, Redman, who was crowned by Karthas when he was 22 years old when he was the lord of the new Floating City!

Levi still remembers that Redman was obviously a very handsome middle-aged man at that time, and it was at the time when Iolem invented the 'life extension technique', how could he 'age' like this in just over 300 years!

[Suck Magic]!

Fei Lin Mo Kui's magic sucking magic!

Levi's 'early awakening' didn't exactly feel the power of this evil magic.

Until now.

Redman looks... He is extremely old.

It was as if just saying such a sentence to Karthhas had taken a lot of energy, and they were all fighting against themselves, against death, and against fate!

"Why, Father, didn't you say you would leave Netharel together?" Levi could not see Karthas's expression, but he could feel the anxiety and anguish in his heart.

Wait a minute!

Was Karthus planning to escape from Netheril?

Levi was extremely stunned, he never thought that the Karthas, who was comparable to a 'god' in the hearts of Netherrell, would also have something to do with the word 'escape'.

Redman let out a long sigh and said, "I'm already old, and even if I leave, I guess I won't live long." Give up your place to other young people.

"As far as I know, now under the blockade of Felin's magic sunflower sucking magic, only your heavily magically coated Icarus can escape from this dead place, and take as many people as you can who are willing to leave Netheril.

"I'm sorry, kid, I changed my mind, I... Don't want to go... Your cousin too..."

As he spoke, he turned his head to look at the old woman beside him, who was also decaying, as if he had let go of the knot in his heart, and smiled with relief.

But the old woman smiled very kindly, she slowly stepped forward, took the big hand that Karthas clenched, and said:

"Go, my brother, you are the pride of our Sass family, and the pride of Netheriel, and you must live no matter what.

"You are Master Iorum's most illustrious student, and the hope of Netheril's continuation, and only if you live and take them with you, Netheril, will never perish. ”

Karthas drew his lichified hand, which was also like a dry bone, and roared in pain like a wounded beast:

"Why! You all left behind! What is the point of me leaving! You are already my last family!!

"But we... I don't have long to live... Old... I don't want to toss anymore, I just want to be buried with your mother after I die, I... I couldn't bear to leave her alone. Redman sighed.

Karthas wanted to say that it was a big deal to transform into a lich, but he didn't.

Lich transformation is not a panacea, Redman is too old, and he has been corrupted by magic sucking for so long that it is almost impossible for him to bear the price of lich transformation.

And Redman's last sentence blocked all his words in his sour throat.

If they forcibly take them away against their father's wishes, then it is not a kind of selfishness.

Karthas staggered back two steps, lowered his head, and said, "Then father, take care, I will leave tomorrow after I officially resign to the teacher... Leave... Netherreel. ”

"Good. Redman nodded heavily, as if this simple action had consumed all his strength.

Then, with a complicated face, he watched as Karthas left the mansion alone, disappearing into the night.

After leaving his home, Karthas teleported straight to the Icarus that was hovering in the port west of the city.

At this time, the port of the Icarus was overcrowded.

The appearance of Karthas provoked an uproar.

People lined up in the harbor, begging loudly for the owner of the Icarus to give out some more tickets to get them on board.

But that's almost impossible.

Ever since the news of the Icarus being able to cross the blockade line leaked, countless 'friends and relatives' have asked for a certain share of the ferry tickets through various connections.

This even includes quite a few other Grand Arcanists of the Floating City.

In just a few days, the Icarus has actually overloaded 300 percent of its original design.

If there are too many and too many arcanists together, the magic resonance phenomenon caused by it will make it difficult to cover the heavy magic coating, and it will inevitably be affected by the magic absorption.

So some powerful people who couldn't get on the ship started the idea of the original crew position.

was spotted by Karthas in time and pressed down.

But this... It's the limit of what he can do.

He is also a human being, and he also has to take care of the feelings of those old 'old friends'.

Now Netheril's borders are blocked by the underground Ferrin Demon Sunflower with magic sucking magic, and the battle situation on the front line is getting worse and worse, coupled with the infection of magic, text messages from all over the country are intermittent.

And without exception, almost every day all kinds of gossip are one-sided bad news.

Felim Demon Kwai has too much restraint on Netherel's arcanists!

This monster with so high magic resistance that it has been immuneized is almost the natural nemesis of the Arcanists of Netheril!

Maybe... Only divine magic can restrain them.

But I don't know if it's Netheril's contempt for theocracy for thousands of years, or for unknown reasons.

The gods, as if they had completely abandoned this place.

Even some desperate Netherreans prayed for the gods' help, but received no response.

Only... The temple of the goddess of magic still stands on every floating city.

But the priests of the Goddess of Magic are also good at magic... It's because of Netheril's condition, and there is nothing he can do to help.

In the face of the boiling pleading and even the invective after despair, Karthas could only strode into the ship with a cold face, and under the respectful and grateful eyes of the crew.

As a result, rumors began to circulate that Karthas was 'dead and unsaved' and 'cold-blooded and ruthless'.

But the big guys don't have so much energy to suppress these 'insignificant' remarks.

Karthas came to the keel door of the central hall and said silently in his heart:

"Rhesus..."

The door opened.

Karthas made his way to the top of the ship, his private study.

The study wasn't technically large, not even a hundredth of the size of the main control room, but the vault on the top level of the Icarus was located.

Here, he could see the stars in the sky through the transparent dome of the ship.

It is rumored that each star corresponds to every intelligent life in Corell, and although it has not been falsified by any of the Grand Arcanists, Karthhas likes to look at the stars in the sky when he is alone.

Because when he was young, the teacher often accompanied him to look at the stars, and then explained to him the strange and vast knowledge of various stars in the starry sky.

He longed for the vast and boundless universe, the lonely but vast sea of stars in the teacher's mouth, and the more and more wonderful multiverses outside the [Kingdom and Heaven].

If he had a choice, he would actually prefer to become a traveling mage.

If possible, he hopes that in his lifetime, he can take his teacher with him, shuttle through the colorful universe of the heavens, and experience a variety of different customs and... Life.

But... That's just a choice, if it's possible.

However... He didn't have a choice, and he didn't have that possibility.

He is the most illustrious child of the Sass family, the pride of the family, and he is the one who bears the glory of the Sass family.

He is Netheril's greatest arcanist since Eorim, and is regarded by Eolem as the successor to the next Speaker of the Severynton Assembly and Chief Arcanist.

Now, he was also ordered by Iolum to 'betray' Netherel and lead a group of Netheriel's Tinder to leave the country... Continuation of civilization.

He has been endowed with the most outstanding arcane talents from the Divine, but he is also bound by earthly glory and legacy.

All of this weighed heavily on his shoulders.

After the teacher left, he almost lost all the strength to laugh from the bottom of his heart.

He will continue to study, study, and struggle for the glory of his family.

Fight for the glory of Netheriel.

Later, Felin Demon Aoi appears, and he has to work hard to keep Nethrel alive.

Although he lived for more than 300 years, during these 300 years, he worked almost like a tireless construct, working for all this.

So in the eyes of the world, he is a weirdo who only knows how to hide in the laboratory all year round to study the arcane.

He was silent, impersonal, cold-blooded, withdrawn, almost identical to the old monster of Iolum.

But what people don't know is his mind, his dreams, his visions, his love, all his yearnings.

It was almost all stagnant at the age of twenty-two;

Stuck in... The night his teacher Rose said goodbye...

Before he knew it, another vivid painting appeared under the pen of Karthus.

The person in the painting is still his teacher, Ris...

It was Rose who smiled at him before leaving;

exhortations to him;

Ardent hopes for him.

His teacher once wanted him to live as the person he wanted to be.

Live the way you want to be.

And don't... Like her.

"Teacher... Are you okay? I'm sorry I failed to live up to your hopes. Karthas muttered to himself.

At this time, the sky outside the window also brightened.

I don't know when painting the teacher's paintings has become his only hobby.

It is also the only way for him to indulge himself and 'rest'.

Only here, in this world of my own, while painting the teacher's paintings, I recall the beautiful memories of being with the teacher in my childhood.

Only in his restless heart can he get a moment of peace.

But this peace was short-lived after all, and now, he was going to meet another teacher of his own.

An equally revered great arcanist.

Iolem.

He was going to say goodbye to Iolem and see what else he had to ask of him.

But after that, he plans to follow the clues provided by Icarus and go to the astral plane himself.

If you can really find the kind of thing in its mouth... A tool that can directly rewrite the rules of the world.

Then, at that time, he could easily end this war by simply using it to directly erase Felin Demon Aoi's damn magic resistance.

But looking at Icarus's attitude, it seems that he has always been extremely wary of the astral plane.

Moreover, the heavy magic power was also developed by him recently, and the Icarus Isolation paint was also newly completed.

This is also the reason why he has not been able to leave for a long time.

However, when he came to the 'Demigod Iorum's Supreme Magical Vault' to meet his second teacher, he was unable to receive a response.

And in the magic chamber, it's unusually quiet...

Karthhas resolutely pushed the door and entered, and saw that in the magic chamber, there were only traces of seemingly failed spell experiments and rare magic materials scattered all over the place.

There's even an ancient golden dragon's stomach filled with ore and the pituitary membrane of the Doomsday Destroyer... and the corpse tentacle tissue of the Ferin Demon Aoi.

And the demigod of Netheril.

The spiritual pillar of the people of Netherre.

Iolem...

Missing...
