Two people sat on the floor around the campfire.

On the left sat Sauron, and on the right sat Ildis.

In fact.

Ildis still has a dream-like feeling, because just two days ago he met a fellow witch, and the other party only gave him a little guidance, and helped him break through the mental barrier and successfully lift the demon net to the higher levels. Now that he is a quasi-legendary-level spellcaster, with his age being able to reach such a realm, it is basically a proper thing to enter the legendary realm in the future. As agreed, he had come here to wait for the other party's arrival, because the witch had said that he would wait for her around here if he was free, and he needed a small favor from Ildis.

According to the agreement, the witch should have arrived this morning.

However, the other party seems to have been delayed, and he has not seen anyone so far, and Yildis originally planned to leave, but after thinking about it, he still thinks that he should wait a little longer.

After all, the other party has helped herself, maybe she is her own opportunity.

Ildis has a formidable enemy, and that enemy is not only a legendary spellcaster, but also a lich.

And then.

Eldis met Sauron.

The witch who was supposed to come did not appear, but a stranger whom she had never met.

But as dramatic as the encounter with the mysterious witch, Ildis actually learned from the other party that there was an important clue about the artifact he had been looking for, the legendary [Archmage's Staff].

It's like a dream!

As a high-level spellcaster, Ildis has always been stuck on a very important bottleneck, and his spirit is not pure enough to break through the higher levels of the magic net, so he has never been able to touch the realm of the legendary realm. However, just as he was about to give up on his search for the Goddess of Magic, Ildis unexpectedly met a Northland witch who was also looking for the Goddess of Magic. Although the other party did not identify herself, she helped herself break through the bottleneck by just pointing her fingers, and Ildis intuitively believed that she was a high-ranking figure in the Northland witches.

And then it's just thinking about something.

As Ildis prepares to enter the breakthrough realm, he continues to search for the legendary [Archmage's Staff]. With the help of its power to help itself deal with enemies, I didn't expect to suddenly encounter a wizard in the wild. The other party didn't know which tendon was wrong, so he directly invited him to explore the secret treasure that might seal the staff of the archmage.

This moment!

Ildis felt as if he were possessed by an ancient hero, like the story of a troubadour in a tavern, who went out and casually ran into so-and-so, who was famous as a person, and then gave him a pointer and made himself leap and bound. Walking around the tavern and drinking and meeting another so-and-so, and then the other party told him where there is any treasure, I see that your root bone Qingqi is superb, why don't you go with me to find the treasure and so on.

It's like fate!

Yes.

At this moment, Ildis really felt that everything was arranged by fate, and he was like an epic hero in a legendary story.

Sauron had literally told him the whereabouts of the treasure.

Based on the information he has gathered over the years. There was a good chance that Sauron was right. Relying on his higher level of spell casting, Ildis has been quietly maintaining the spell of detecting lies, in his opinion, Sauron is just a wizard above the middle level, and in terms of strength, he is completely suppressive, so he naturally relaxed his vigilance a lot.

Sauron didn't tell the truth, but he didn't lie outright either.

In his opinion, the 'Detect Lies' spell that Ildis had been quietly maintaining was a complete joke, but in order to save as much time as possible to gain the trust of this guy, Sauron still didn't break it.

The current Ildis is not yet one of the most powerful spellcasters in the future material plane!

For what the hell is going on in his mind. Sauron didn't care very much, all he cared about was finding the goddess of magic through the other party, and it was best to be able to lock the aura of the goddess of magic through the [tracking] priesthood.

That's it!

Sauron was always available to find her when he needed her, if he could. Sauron still hoped that the web wouldn't collapse so quickly.

If the magic net collapses, the strength of Modo City will be greatly damaged.

First of all.

Sauron's spell-casting ability was to be affected, even if he had the Arcanist level, it would be reduced a lot, and then Goliath was basically completely abolished for a while.

Before adapting to mastering spellcasting without the help of the net. Goliath's combat power was not even one-tenth of what it is now.

It's the same with fallen witches.

The web is collapsing!

The Witches of the Northland were hit hard in an instant, and the City of Wizards was also badly damaged, but the latter had nothing. But the former is now an important ally of Sauron.

Follow the historical progress line.

During the period when the magic net collapsed, the Northland Witch was directly weakened into a third-rate small organization, and a large number of members died at the hands of demons, devils and other enemies, and the entire Witch Alliance was almost wiped out, and even the [Eye of the Northland], which now has high-level legendary spell-casting power, finally fell.

In a way!

The collapse of the web represents the demise of the Northland Witches.

For Sauron, who is now closely connected to the Northland Witches' Council, this is almost equivalent to breaking one of his arms, and the strength of Golia and the Fallen Witch has been greatly reduced, and the impact is even more serious.

It's not easy to cast spells out of the net.

The last time the magic net collapsed, it caused a terrible blow to the spellcasters, and at that time, many spellcasters still had time to readjust to the days without the magic net, but this time it was followed by the outbreak of the Sage Catastrophe, and many spellcasters did not have time to adapt at all. The destruction of the Northland Witch was completely caused by multiple blows, and the collapse of the magic net was the core key, after all, there are still a few witches who can jump out of the magic net and cast spells, and most of the witches' talents can only be said to be relatively good.

From Sauron's personal point of view.

He still hoped that the goddess of magic would not die, if she died, the divine belief network above the ninth layer of the magic web would also collapse, and a large part of the priests in the Sauron church would not be able to obtain divine magic.

But!

The death of the goddess of magic is full of suspicions, full of too many weirdness, and it can even be said that she died suddenly.

Truth be told, Sauron didn't quite believe that the goddess of magic died at the hands of mortals!

No matter what.

The Sage Holocaust is finally here, and Sauron is ready to try to get in touch with the Goddess of Magic before thinking about the future. Maybe this will be a turning point in history, but Sauron still hopes to change the world a little.
