The magic of the three continents has its own system. The New World is mainly about the belief magic of light and shadow life and death, the Elemental Continent is mainly elemental magic as the name suggests, and the magic system of Starfall Continent is based on unique magic energy. The recorded history only ended thousands of years ago in the "Hundred Years of Prosperity", and then the entire kingdom disappeared out of thin air, and the civilization of the Starfall Continent also completely perished, and everything started anew, completely different from the other two continents.

Because the history of civilization is still short, the mages of the Starfall Continent are actually still in the research and development stage of the magic energy magic they have mastered, and there are many types of magic, and their operating principles are not very clear. Prophetic magic is one of the most unthinkable things mages can do, and it's so inscrutable that it's hard to master. In history, only one "prophet" can be said to have completely mastered the magic of foreknowledge, and can clearly see every scene and detail from the first perspective within ten years, and grasp the context and law of fate. That's one of the reasons why the world has so much respect for him.

In fact, there are many thieves and archers who can use half-baked prophetic magic, but they only use that vague "hunch" to avoid attacks or predict the trajectory of archery. Why is it predictable? How to predict accurately? Few can tell. Professional prophetic mages are even rarer, not only because they are difficult to study, but also because they really often make mistakes.

…… It would be nice if the "prophet" was willing to publish a book and spread knowledge to the world, but for many years he was unwilling to accept even an apprentice.

In short, the prophetic magic of the entire Starfall Continent is still very immature.

Therefore, the garrison strength in the East Shangjue Castle only doubled tonight, and no specific precautionary instructions were issued.

"Teacher, are you really not going to tell Lord Shangjue?"

"Because I don't believe it myself."

The two people who spoke were two prophetic mages, an old man and a young man, who belonged to the Eastern Shangjue Guard, and the former was the "Secretary of Defense Strategy" and was one of the high-ranking members of Shangjue's side. He and the students beside him were dressed in the uniform robes of the Mage Guild, with the emblem of the Lord of the East on the left chest of the smock and the glorious emblem of the Guild on the back of the robe.

The teacher's name is Andrew, and the student's name is Bamba. There will be a large-scale night attack tonight, which is predicted by Andrew, who has reached the fifth order of the prophetic class. But the vision was so vague that even he didn't believe it. Bamba is expressing his dismay to the teacher about the matter.

Andrew's foreknowledge is a third-point perspective, which is broader and more incisive than the prophet's first-point foreknowledge, capturing events of noteworthiness, but at the same time more obscure. In the twenty years of his tenure at Dong Shang Jue, there have been 17 prediction mistakes, large and small, and although Dong Shang Jue, a fellow mage, has shown great tolerance and favoritism to this, Andrew himself has become more and more discouraged.

Tonight, 800 Assassins from the north and south came to assassinate the Lord of the East, and if they succeeded, Andrew himself died, and the entire castle would be left dead. This kind of thing...... How can it be?

In fact, his prediction was seriously disturbed this time. Dai Xingquanli, who is also a prophetic mage, once followed the prophet every step of the way, racking her brains to study ways to disrupt the prophet in order to do something unseemly, and she was already the leading master in the whole continent. Nicorid's relationship with the Dark Priests of the Southern New World is unusual, and his use of shadow magic has somewhat obscured Andrew's foreknowledge. So, the foreknowledge about tonight was even more vague than usual, which made Andrew have no confidence at all.

Let's tell Dong Shangjue: "My lord, I have a very bad premonition about the night in a few days...... Probably, maybe, probably. ”

"Hmm." Eastern Shangjue has always been kind to all mages, and chose to trust Andrew and doubled the strength of the garrison.

This touched Andrew.

And then the eggs.

The foreknowledge of death has not yet been dispelled.

It was already the middle of the night, and he was still patrolling the castle, full of uneasiness. Only the best student was around, and the others were rested, because only Andrew himself and Bamba had the weakest signs of death, so it was arranged. He tried to protect the students who were in danger, and he and the lead student were in charge of patrolling, but this arrangement turned out to be harmful to the other students.

Andrew and Bamba walked down the hallway near the main entrance on the first floor of the castle, brightly lit. Suddenly, a butler led a visitor to meet him. Tall, with a fierce face and obscene eyes, this man seems to be the leader of ...... "three-headed vicious dog".

How did he ......?

Andrew reached out to stop the butler and asked, "What's going on?" ”

The butler saluted respectfully: "He is Lord Shapi, the mercenary team leader under Lord Shangjue, and he said that he was in a hurry to report to Lord Shapi in person because of something important." I saw that the adults hadn't rested yet, so I asked for their permission. ”

Since Shang Jue has agreed to discuss him...... No, Andrew still doesn't feel quite right. He looked behind the two of them, and the hallway was empty, and there was no one.

"What about the guards?"

"Yes, they're on duty."

In the face of Andrew's inquiry, the butler said. This is true, because the guards were still alive when Shar Pei visited the main gate. They were killed by the Assassins.

Wrong......

At this time, the Assassins, dressed in guard armor uniforms, pretended to cross the corridor, seemingly patrolling as usual.

…… Still something is wrong. Andrew couldn't tell, but he always felt that something wasn't quite right.

As his clerk, he can't stop the butler from leading the guests to visit Lord Shang Jue for a long time, and he needs to confirm it with the "old way" as soon as possible.

Andrew turned to Bamba and said, "Five seconds later they started shouting that there were assassins, and the whole city was on alert. ”

"Okay, teacher."

With that, Andrew cast his magic and adjusted the clearest foreknowledge of his first perspective from two seconds of passivity to half a minute of continuous mana consumption. At this time, the scene that he had seen and heard came to his mind - Bamba suddenly began to shout loudly that there were assassins, the butler's reaction was overwhelming, Shappi's reaction was very panicked, and he rushed up to try to cover Bamba's mouth, and three seconds later, a large number of assassins suddenly poured out from the front and back ends of the corridor!

It's true! There really are assassins!

"No, you don't really have to shout, it's going to disturb the rest of the rest." Andrew immediately stretched out his hand to stop Bamba and said, "It's me who is too worried, there are no assassins. ”

"Okay."

This is not the first time that Bamba and the teacher have worked together in this way, and the point is that you must really intend to shout, so that Andrew can see a different future. He believed that the teacher had confirmed that everything was safe.

No, Andrew foresaw that if he shouted, they would both die here on the spot, and they wouldn't even need ten seconds. So the vigilance program was canceled. There are too many enemies. He must be alive for the time being, and find a way to inform Lord Shang Jue as soon as possible!

Surrounded by assassins, Andrew could only follow the butler and Shar Pei upstairs with his face and go to Dong Shangjue's room, but in fact, he was rapidly consuming mana, constantly trying and making mistakes in various futures, looking for a way out.

Use the communication reel to contact an adult? No, you'll be killed before you can finish speaking; Let Bamba find a place where no one is using the communication scroll? No, just leave my side and die immediately; While I still have plenty of mana, strengthen my battle foresight and fight with them? No, I can only level four, and their number seems endless; Taking Shar Pei as a hostage? No, they will kill me with Shar-Pei; Turn right at the front corner and inform the guards? No, they're dead.

Andrew didn't find any solution until he walked from the first floor to the third floor, and his forehead was covered with beads of sweat the size of beans.

A quarter of the castle was dead when Shar Pei entered, and now only a quarter remained...... Guards, butlers, maids, cooks, tailors, gardeners, and grooms were all spared. Andrew couldn't figure out how many Assassins there were, so silent, efficiently slaughtering everything alive in a place where he couldn't see it.

The chamber of the East Chanjue is on the fourth floor of the castle.

Andrew and Bamba's peace can only last until the third floor, no matter how hard they try to predict the future, no matter what they do, they can't change it. There are too many enemies...... And the rest of his students are probably already ......

"There's nothing I can do...... It's too weak. If there is half the strength of the prophet, it is ...... abomination."

Andrew walked and walked, suddenly stopped, fell to his knees with his legs limp, covered his face, and seemed to be weeping with grief and indignation. He hated himself for not being strong enough, and even more so because the other students were all dead. At first, he would rather die than inform Dong Shangjue, but he didn't have a chance. Now, all he wants is to save the life of his only student.

"Bamba, don't resist ......"

Bamba didn't understand what the teacher meant. However, there was no need for him to speculate. Sensing that something was wrong, he cast his magic and saw with his own eyes what would happen ten seconds later, then silently knelt down and raised his hands in surrender.

In the next second, more than a dozen black-clothed assassins suddenly appeared from all directions, and they attacked in unison with a fierce momentum, but they were stunned halfway. Because these two mages had already surrendered before they even appeared.

"Interesting, the rumors are true." One of the Assassins touched his chin and smiled, "Your Excellency, if Andrew is willing to surrender "early", he must be captured. After a pause, he pointed to Bamba and added, "Count that kid lucky, and take it with you." ”

Really lucky.

On the first and second floors, Andrew and Bamba were certain to die even if they surrendered, resisted, or called for help, but when they reached the third floor, they suddenly took a turn for the captured. In order to save his life, Andrew pretended not to know, and slowly walked up with the butler and Shar-Pei, while hundreds of assassins had already poured into the castle, killing where Andrew couldn't see, and kept slaughtering from the first floor. The Assassins from the north and south had converged here. The first to arrive Nikoyid's subordinates were busy killing the first and second floors, and Dai Xingquanli's subordinates, who were a little late, were in charge of the third floor. Andrew met on the third floor and happened to be Dai Xingquanli's direct subordinate. Dai Xingquanli is deeply influenced by her former boss and likes to know talents. The Prophet is the only Prophet of the Sixth Order, and Andrew is one of the few Fifth Order, so it's a pity to kill him.

As for how to warn Dong Shangjue......

No longer needed.

When Andrew walked to the third floor, he had already confirmed that Lord Dong Shangjue was alert. As the president of the Mage Association, the adult naturally has a strong combat power, as long as it is not a sneak attack, the adult will not lose.

He chose to surrender instead of rushing upstairs to seek refuge from Lord Shang Jue because...... If you don't surrender and continue to walk up, you may be killed by the Sparrow before the Assassin appears.
