"Nilod, you mean, the magician is in the docklands to the south right now?"

At the top of the town hall, countless black rattans squirmed rapidly, forming a huge head, which had no mouth or nose, except for a pair of dark green eyes staring at Nirod standing at the bottom of the hall.

"No, I can't be sure of that. It can only be said that it is very likely. Nirod felt so stressed that he kept his head down, not daring to look up and meet those terrible eyes.

"Hmm~ I don't like uncertain news very much, you should find him out first, and then report back to me." There was a hint of impatience in Donassis's voice.

Nirod's heart tightened, and he hurriedly explained, "Lord Donassis, I really want to do this, and I am even desperate to kill this magician. However, the power of this magician is very strong, and I have failed twice in a row...... My retreat was not due to cowardice, but to reason. Because I know very well that there is no point in recklessly dying, and that fighting to the death can only be called a heroic act when it is compelled to die......"

"That's it!"

The entangled black rattan on the wall shot out several times, whipping the air like a whip and making a crackling sound: "Nirod, you talk so much nonsense that people want to plug your mouth with shit!" ”

Nirod clenched his fists, gritted his teeth, and endured the breath.

"Still, the message you brought was somewhat useful. On the battlefield, risks cannot be completely avoided, and sometimes you have to gamble on your luck. ”

"You have a lot of point." Nirod nodded hurriedly.

"So be it. Take all your men and attack the ruins of the West Academy. If that magician hadn't been there, you'd be able to take down the ruins without much trouble and bring me back the survivors inside, right? ”

"Should ....... It should be, if he's really not there. Nirod felt as if he had dug himself a big hole.

"Hahaha, here's your chance to verify that your judgment is accurate. Go ahead, go take that ridiculous camp, and don't let me down. ”

"Wait~" Nirod was unwilling.

"Hmm~ What other questions do you have?" The black rattan wrapped around the wall moved slightly, and in an instant, the face of the rattan probed less than 1 meter away from Nirod, and its dark green eyes stared at Nirod tightly. No matter how much Nirod dodged, he couldn't escape the other party's sight.

At the same time, all the black rattans on the wall began to wriggle at an accelerated pace, as if a long black whip could burst out of the wall at any moment.

Niroddon felt the pressure pressing down on him like a mountain, he resisted the urge to retreat, bowed his head and said, "The Great Lord is not ...... Didn't let me go to the ruins of the academy....... He just asked me to help you get acquainted with the city, and when I got acquainted, I had to go find the ..... Those great magicians. ”

"How dare you disobey me?!"

The wriggling of the black rattan reached its extreme in an instant, and one by one, it catapulted out of the wall, and the speed was incredibly fast, even Nirod, who was known for his speed, only had time to retreat less than two steps back.

In the blink of an eye, Nirod's body was wrapped in a black shroud of rattan.

Inside the rattan hood, another rattan bolt poked out like lightning, and before Nirod could react, the rattan wrapped around the phantom assassin's neck, forcibly lifting his head.

"Fallen, open your eyes and see what exists in front of you clearly~~" Donassis's voice became as soft and dreamy as a bewitch, but the tone was eerie and eerie, like a ghost lurking in the dark abyss.

"Do you see clearly? Hmm~~~"

"Look...... See clearly. Nirod nodded repeatedly.

For the first time in his life, he felt a horror that went deep into his bones. For the first time, he encountered such a helpless situation. He had lived for hundreds of years and had never seen such a terrifying creature.

For a moment, he even felt that the countless black rattans in front of him were simply the most terrifying nightmare in the world.

"So, do you still want to go against my will?" The sound that came from the rattan became more and more eerie and cold, filled with a killing intent like a north wind.

Nirod felt the snake-like cold rattan around his neck slowly tighten, and he had no doubt that if he said a word, the terrible monster would kill him on the spot...... No, the other party should transform him into an unconscious puppet.

He was soaked in cold sweat all over his body, and he couldn't say a word, so he could only nod his head again and again.

"Whew~~~"

With a whistling of the wind, the black rattan vanished, and Nirod felt the light once more.

"Puff~~"

He fell to his knees, gasping for air, no more unwillingness, no anger, only endless fear.

Donassis's voice came from the top of the hall: "My legion needs more warriors, so bring back everyone in that camp, whether corpses or alive, understand?" ”

"I see."

"Go ahead~ don't let me down."

Nirod struggled to his feet, bowed respectfully to Donassis, and slowly exited the hall.

After he left the hall, the black rattan on the wall was still slowly wriggling, and after five or six minutes, a snake-like scream suddenly came from the rattan.

About half a minute later, a sturdy golem in a shabby blue leather coat walked in from outside the hall, and the guy stayed at the bottom of the hall, not saying a word.

"Hiss~~~~Hiss~~hiss~~~"

Donassis hissed incessantly, in different pitches and pitches, as if he were speaking a peculiar snake language.

After a few minutes, Donassis quieted down, popping out a rattan stick and pointing in the direction of the quayside south of the city.

The sturdy blue-clad golem bowed slightly to Donassis, let out a short hiss, and then turned and walked out of the town hall.

Outside the hall, the blue-clothed puppet waved his hand vigorously in all directions of the plaza outside the hall, and with each wave, his mouth would hiss loudly like a whistle.

This was repeated five or six times, and hundreds of golems came out from all directions around the square and gathered around the sturdy sailor golems.

On the surface, these puppets and the blue-clothed puppets have the same appearance, both have blue-black skin, and their eyes emit a dark green light, but if you look closely, you will find that the blue-clothed puppet has more light in his eyes, his face also has expressions, and his walking posture is more natural, unlike other puppets, which looks like a marionette dressed in human skin.

When more than 100 puppets had gathered, the blue-clothed puppet walked towards the dock area south of the city, and as it walked, it made a loud hissing sound from its mouth.

The other 100 or so puppets turned around like puppets and formed a scattered line, jumping up and down behind the blue-clad puppet.

In the hall, Donassis looked at the array of puppets in the distance and whispered, "Magician....... Enchanter...... A bunch of pathetic reptiles~"

Ten thousand years ago, he lost to a powerful being, and although he was unwilling, he had nothing to say.

Ten thousand years later, he returned, and his former enemies had been wiped out in time, and although his descendants still existed in this world, they had long forgotten the glory of their ancestors.

This time, he definitely won't fail!

This time, he will definitely dedicate this beautiful world to the supreme king!
