In the evening, the teacher's apartment was crowded with activity.

Mu Yan personally cooked the hot pot base and oil bowl after a long absence, so as to celebrate the reunion of Miss Momoya and Ricky after half a year. In the heat and noise, the blue face of the Tallinn was visibly flushed with shame.

Tom, Jerry, and Uno, who run the Twilight Tavern, rushed over with Eric, and Heru and the others were all there, plus Mr. Glazer, Grace, and Amacer, and they were able to make up the original team without Surya.

Several people communicated in Heru, and although Miss Cha Cha couldn't understand it, she could also see the intimacy between this group of people.

But even if she can understand, she probably won't have this skill for the time being - because the hot pot is too spicy, and Cha Cha can't bear the temptation of food, so that her forehead is sweaty, her lips are also spicy and red, she sucks hard, and her big eyes are watery, where can she care to listen to what they say.

Several people ate lively, and with interest, Uno opened several bottles of wine in a row, and even Miss Cha Cha was bewitched by Grace and drank a small sip of wine, and the girl looked dizzy, and hid food in the small pocket she carried with her with a red face, saying that she would bring it to Mr. Xia Mu, which made everyone laugh.

Mu Yan was half-lying on the sofa watching this scene, always smiling shallowly, until he had passed three rounds of drinking, he quietly left the table and came to the bedroom shrouded in a soundproof enchantment.

Principal William lay motionless on the bed, his eyes wide open, and he didn't look good.

"The principal is really a high-risk profession, and so is Huai'en......" Mu Yan couldn't help but pout.

When Momoya arrived at noon, he brought an additional wounded man, the headmaster.

From her description, it is not difficult to restore what happened: after William stepped in to block the tower on his behalf, he was immediately counterattacked. Someone tricked him into a church hundreds of miles away from Falan City, and tried to brainwash and control him through the techniques of the forbidden magic array and the tower, but fortunately, at this time, Momoya passed by, and by the way, he ended up with the Pope.

Luo Kan hadn't seen a legendary assassin for thousands of years, and the mysterious ways of Ricky and Momoya would have suffered even if Mu Yan didn't pay attention to them, so he wasn't worried that it would expose their tracks, he was just curious about why the Pope was so vulnerable......

Miss Momoya said that she had made a move because the Pope had an aura that she hated so much, which had been in contact with Heru, and also had it on the two sick names in the Wind Firmament—if nothing else, it should have been a brand. It is true that a key figure like Paul IV should be directly controlled by Ysso, but even so, his strength should not be below a few fanatical followers of Garton...... But Miss Momoya said that the man was like a blank piece of paper, which would break when he stabbed it.

She destroyed the scene directly before leaving, and there were no clues left.

After thinking about it carefully, Mu Yan could only reluctantly come to one conclusion: I am afraid that the Pope does not have much divine power left, so he has to deal with William in such a deserted place.

This is interesting, it seems that the barrier above the head is not only blocking Ikali, but also Azul and Ral...... But from the known information, the silent enchantment of the whole realm came from the mages of Jialan, that is, the enchantment created by mortals can actually stop the footsteps of the gods?

I am afraid there is some secret hidden behind this......

Putting aside these distractions, although Momoya appeared by coincidence, it was still half a step late. Most of Principal William's memories have been erased, and now even his basic consciousness is shattered, his soul has been hit hard, and he can't control his body at all, even if he waits for the trauma to recover naturally, he will become stupid and stupid when he wakes up, and he is no longer the sometimes kind and sometimes strict principal he was before.

Not to mention, he is also Janssen's only relative in this world.

Mu Yan couldn't help but have a headache, how should this be handled......

This situation was completely different from Roddy's at the beginning, after all, it was a miracle that Roddy's memory could be slowly restored, and he had no hope...... At the moment, Principal William is in much better condition than Roddy, but he is between hope and despair, which makes people uncertain.

He struggled for a while, but finally snapped his fingers, and let the Qi elemental servant pick up Headmaster William and disappear into the bedroom.

……

When he reappeared, Mu Yan was already standing in front of the crystal underground.

The light curtain lit up, and two AI servants, a man and a woman, appeared, bending down respectfully.

Mu Yan nodded, and summoned a ray of light from the crystal to envelop William, the old man's body slowly floated in the air, countless thread-like rays of light extended from his brain domain, and the other end outlined a more complex brain domain outline in mid-air.

This is the first time that Mu Yan has observed the embodied brain domain of people so closely and carefully, or it doesn't matter what the sea of souls, the sea of knowledge, the sea of ideas, or anything else, in short, everything that regulates memories and emotions is hidden in it, which is the intersection of matter and spirit.

The material part is the framework and structure of the entity, while the spiritual part is like a dense nebula, floating and tumbling in between, just as human nature is unpredictable. Similarly, it is difficult to carry out human treatment, intervention, etc.

Even if Mu Yan is a necromancer, what he has mastered is only a spell that is purely for the soul or the body, it can be said that either of the two is his research field after separation, but it is not mixed together like this, this is also the most complex structure of life, the place where wisdom and thinking are born.

Now William's brain domain looks very "refreshing", because the memories have been erased, so the unpredictable "nebula" in the ordinary person's brain is a warm cloud in him, without any conflation. The framework built by the soul power was slowly repairing itself with the "tranquilizing technique" released by the crystal, but this cloud was still indifferent.

"Do you two have any good ideas?" Mu Yan asked.

He didn't hold out any hope at all, just tried to test it like a dead horse as a live horse doctor.

"You can start with a backup, host!" Cat Niang said suddenly: "Any living creature will have a 'subconscious' memory backup, and when the memory is damaged, it can be restored with backup data!" ”

"Backup?" Mu Yan was puzzled: "Then ...... that guy from Roddy"

"That guy, not to mention the data storage function, even the hard disk has been destroyed, and there is no way to recover it." Nicole complained, "Can't you guess this kind of thing? ”

Mu Yan pursed his lips and couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

It's good to have a cure.

"Try it, and wake up Principal William."

"Yes! Host! ”

……

……

Elemental Tower.

The soul crystal representing Paul IV had long been shattered, and in the face of this situation, the twelve priests who knew about it were a little overwhelmed.

A ray of light wafted from the crystal automatically locked on the successor, and the celebrant bid farewell to his original name and became Paul V.

Eagerness, anger, and jealousy in the face of other companions...... and so on, mixed with the eyes of various complex emotions, and the fifth generation didn't know what to do...... From the day the Tower began to invade Garan, the Pope has had only one mission: to completely annex the Council of Six and close the damned barrier above their heads.

Whether they slack off or not, the task exists, and no one urges or punishes them...... No one resisted.

Therefore, there is no "sudden death" of the Pope.

Because of the existence of the enchantment, the divine power cannot be directly instilled, and at the same time, Paul V, who was ordered to be in danger, cannot accept the imprint of God, in other words, unlike Paul IV, he is now just a mage blessed by the gods: he knows some magic skills, and his ability is equal to that of the seven-ring mage, but his combat power is not as good as that of a combat mage, and his research is not as good as that of an academic scholar mage......

So, Paul V was lost, and he had never been so lost in his life.

He couldn't help but close his eyes, and the tall and thin figure looked lonely in the church.

However, the moment he closed his eyes, he seemed to hear a distant voice reach his ears.

"Go underground...... Go underground......"

Paul V immediately stood up, agitated.

He felt that he had heard the voice of the gods, and that it was evidence of closer contact with the gods.

"God and we are ever—"

He comforted the people.

"God and we are ever—"

As if they had found their backbone, the other priests cheered loudly, and the originally dignified air shattered.

……

Coincidentally, the Elemental Towers in Elemental Alley also have a dark passage that leads to a deep dark chamber underground.

If Mu Yan was here, he might find that this was a road that had been dug for an unknown number of years, with the purpose of digging through this thick layer of rock and reaching the place where the group of mages had accumulated the magic crystal veins underground.

In other words, this is a back door to try to raid the house.

Because the veins of the magic crystals within a radius of hundreds of miles are concentrated under the academy, most of the rocks under the Elemental Alley are demonic detached magic stones, which are extremely strong over time, and can even be used to forge weapons. However, the tower has dug such a deep mine tunnel in it, and the energy spent can be imagined.

Paul V held a soft ball of light in his palm, with a candle in the center, and the deeper he went, the more vigorous the candle became, and the candle would show him the way at every fork in the road.

This is the Burning Wax, which determines its brightness depending on the concentration of elements in the air, and it is also used by the Tower to gain insight into the general location of the underground ore veins.

Stumbling to the end, the way was blocked by a dark room of more than 100 square meters, and a huge teleportation array was engraved on the ground of the dark room.

Paul V vaguely recognized that it was a long-distance teleportation array, spanning at least thousands of miles, and was hesitating, when the voice in his heart said: "Step on, step on......"

He no longer hesitated, raised his foot and stepped on, and was instantly engulfed by the extremely bright light.

Paul V couldn't help but scream, his voice stretched, distorted, and finally disappeared like a torn candle.

I don't know how long it took, but he woke up from a coma.

Before I could open my eyes, a rotten, moldy smell poured into my nose, and I heard the sound of spiders crawling in my ears. He scrambled to his feet, only to choke on the pungent smell in the air.

“Lorfi-Ai”

After a short spell, a milky white light rose from the palm of Paul V's palm, and with a wave of his hand, the light split into countless petals, flying in all directions, illuminating the surroundings.

Then he froze as if he had been struck.

I was in the midst of ruins, covered in thick cobwebs and dust, but judging by the mottled patterns and rust marks on the metal, it was a building that was at least hundreds of years old.

The pattern appears to be a thorn flower, and the vines twist and turn, wrapped around a mighty sword......

Morning Star's sword flower emblem?

Paul V woke up slightly, but only when he looked around along the pattern did he fall into a greater shock.

There were dense figures standing around, all of them standing still, their expressions blank, like air-dried corpses. It's just that their robes are all like new clothes, and there is an obscure magical aura flowing on them, which is simply not in the same timeline as the corpses......

What are these?

Paul V slowly approached, and suddenly one of them seemed familiar. He stared at it for a long time before he realized that he had seen his statue in the Square of Truth.

This is...... Anthony Clark??

This...... How is this possible?

Paul looked to the left again, and there was something familiar......

Could this be the original headmaster of Jialan Academy, Gloka William?

Wait, that one on the right......

Adrian Carter?

Further to the right......

Lord of the Ashes, Mathis?

Paul was completely petrified.

In an instant, he understood.

He understood what the Pope had said before about "weapons", and that was what he was looking for!

The famous mages in the history of Jialan, those who have the hope of advancing or have already advanced to the legend, they have not disappeared, but they have all been captured by the goddess and stored here! As the tower's last hope, its last weapon!

He also understood what 'fuel' was, and the mages looked as if they had lost their souls one by one, leaving only their shells, and it would take a lot of energy to power such a powerful weapon......

He got it all......

The Tower is so powerful, and in front of the Tower, those opponents are like vulnerable children!!

The panic in Paul V's heart was completely banished, and a smile uncontrollably spread across his face.

suddenly

"My servant."

"Who?"

The sudden sound startled him.

A figure slowly walked out of the darkness, dressed in a red robe, with a stiff face, but with a royal blue glow in his eyes, exactly like the previous Pope.

The sound came from his mouth.

Seeing the person who came, Paul V couldn't help but exclaim: "Glazer?? It's you? ”

"My child, as you can see, is only a shell, a carrier, and I, my God."

As Glazer raised his hand, the endless coercion spread, and the firelight escaped from his fingertips, exploding with a bang, and countless points of light were suspended in the air, completely illuminating the entire underground.

Only then did Paul V find himself in a royal palace, with a fresco of the Sword and Flower Banner conquering the plains of the Horses, surrounded by decaying gold and red flags, and a red carpet covered with a thick layer of dust that led to the back of the Glazer.

At the top of the stairs is the throne.

He sat upright on his throne until Glazer got up. And the mages—the weapons—stood around the throne like a crowd of ministers, and you couldn't see the end as far as you could see!

There are at least thousands......

Paul V's heart was shocked, and the ecstasy of absolute power ensued.

Such a tower gives people an invincible sense of oppression.

Ignoring the dust on the ground, he hurriedly knelt down.

"Offering you my loyalty, Your Majesty."

"Arise, child, and I will answer your begging."

"Yes."

Paul V stood up and told him about the death of the previous pope.

"The Tower is now in crisis, and His Majesty the Pope said before leaving that the House of Council is also showing signs of getting out of control......"

"I see, kid."

"Yes......"

Glazer reached out and gently pressed it against his forehead.

"Don't resist and accept the strength I have given you."

"Yes!"

Paul V suppressed the frenzy in his heart, closed his eyes, and raised his head reverently.

Then, he felt a cold force rushing into his mind along the palm of the other party's palm, and his soul was frozen for a moment, and he didn't even have time to struggle, he could only feel that his self-consciousness was deprived and occupied a little bit, as if someone had stuffed something completely irrelevant into his mind and seized control of himself.

Then, he lost the ability to think, and the only sound in his ears was ethereal.

"My child, God will guide you......"
