Chapter 164: Death Token

(New week, ask for a ticket!) The second watch is over! )

Inside the Golden City, the mysterious Altar of the Round Table.

Victor's figure floated down in it.

"What's the matter, so anxious to find me?" As soon as the Death Knight arrived, he asked coldly.

The presiding officer of the meeting, the old mage, said, "Dear Lord Victor, there is one thing that must be told to you. ”

"Say." Victor looked at the people at the round table, and this time there seemed to be nearly thirty percent fewer people than before.

The old mage felt that the matter was serious and did not dare to delay, and after Victor spoke, the mage immediately told the story of the ghosts that had appeared in the slums in the past two days and hurt people.

"Lord Victor, we sense your aura in the ghost." The mage said, "This matter is very big at the moment, and the strong people of the Golden City have flocked to the slums, and the subordinates are worried that this matter will affect your plans, so they don't dare to hide it, so hurry up and report back." ”

Victor listened silently, but his heart became more and more alarmed. On that day, for the sake of the disappearance of the fragments of the Wheel of Time and Space, Victor sent his subordinate Stirling the Ghost to the Divine Grace Continent in advance. It stands to reason that Victor has many strongholds in the Golden City, and even if Sterling fails in his mission, he should take the initiative to contact him. But as soon as Sterling came to the mainland, he lost contact.

Now that he heard the old mage say this, Victor knew that something was wrong. The Death Knight was silent for a long time, looked at the old mage and said, "Is it because of this reason that there are fewer people here today?" Victor's meaning is very clear, in his eyes, those who do not come tonight are all mutineers.

This...... The old mage obviously understood the meaning of Victor's words, but he didn't dare to answer, in fact. The old mage also knew that such a big event had happened, and everyone in the Golden City was in danger, so how could they dare to do any mysterious activities and sacrifices at such a time?

In a big city, a serial murderer can cause resentment and accountability from the king. Now that the ghost massacre has broken out in the city, it will definitely be difficult to get better, and it is likely to set off a huge turmoil, causing the aristocratic forces in the Golden City to reshuffle.

In the city, most of the nobles who have accepted Victor's ideas are greedy and ingenious, and wherever there is interest, they are attached to the object, and now the abyssal forces are in big trouble. Fearing that it would be liquidated, a group of prescient "politically savvy" aristocrats, at some point, abandoned Victor.

Although Victor once depicted a bright future to everyone, he did not do much in the past year, assassinating a few people, and some of them ended in failure. But there was still no response from Victor. Gradually, the hearts of the people. It's not so uniform.

The truth is cruel, Victor finally realized one thing in the face of the old mage's silence, this group of people in the Golden City is actually not very loyal to him. Hehe, Victor snorted coldly in his heart. This group will pay for their stupidity.

Victor is angry, but the Death Knight has more tricky things to deal with right now. Truth be told, the City of Gold, although it is a prosperous place, is not in Victor's first plan. But it was this place that Victor suffered a rare setback over the years. Several operations ended in failure.

Originally, this golden city didn't matter, it was a good place for the fragments of time and space to darken the warehouse, but I didn't expect that this thing was also lost here. And everyone has not yet found the mage wearing the mask, and the whereabouts of Passas, who was on a mission that night, are also unknown.

In Victor's eyes, this is unacceptable. Now that he thinks about it, the Death Knight vaguely feels that there seems to be a force in the dark that is pushing all this to happen, and someone is working against him. But when I think about it, there is no clear goal. Who exactly has such ability, and what is his direction.

The Death Knight's mind flashed through many, and for a moment, Victor thought of the young warlock from before. But that person is only 12 years old, how much can he do after saving Cayton and Wen Li by luck? On the contrary, it was the people in the circus that night that attracted Victor's attention.

"How's the girl you caught last time?" Victor remembered this incident, that girl was a rare demon fetus, if she cultivated it well, she would definitely be able to summon the demon god in the void to come.

"Returning to Lord Victor, that girl is now locked up in our dungeon, and according to your orders, we have locked her up in a water dungeon, and have raised all kinds of poisonous monsters in the prison to stimulate her ferocity." The old mage said.

"Very well, you must speed up the progress of this matter and try to get it done this winter, besides, how about the thing I asked you to take from the academy before?" Victor asked again.

When the old mage heard this, he was silent for a long time. At the beginning, in order to fulfill Victor's orders, the old mage used many connections, and even sent skeletons to attack a mentor in the academy, and in order to cover up the truth, he even did not hesitate to launch a larger-scale harassment, resulting in the almost death of many apprentices in the academy. Because of this, the opening of the Mage Academy was delayed for a time, and its reputation was greatly damaged, and many apprentices withdrew from the academy.

"Lord Victor, this matter is basically completed, from what we have now, that thing is indeed stored in the magic treasury of the academy, the most important thing at the moment is how to get it out of the treasure house, as long as it appears, we have a chance!" The old mage said coldly.

As a third-order powerhouse, this mage originally had the opportunity to be promoted to the top of the academy, but in the change of office more than ten years ago, the old mage fell behind, and he didn't even get a management position like the branch dean, and only got some false positions.

Victor listened to it and remained silent, after losing the Eye of Detection, the Death Knight lost a fragment of the Wheel of Time and Space, but it doesn't matter, there is still a piece in the Mage Academy, and Victor will definitely not let go this time. As long as he masters the Wheel of Time and Space, this powerful lord will be able to go back to the past again and again, and it seems that it is not difficult to rule the Abyss and the Divine Grace Continent in one fell swoop!

Victor remembered the seven members of the circus on Circus Night, as well as the masked spellcaster, and the Abyss Lord believed that the fragments of his lost Wheel of Time and Space must be on them. Wait, you will be retaliated by Victor's madness!

With these things in mind, Victor turned his mind back to Sterling. Victor doesn't need to scout to be sure, the possessed undead who is now slaughtering in the Golden City and has his own breath is his own subordinate Sterling.

After thinking quietly for a while, Victor came up with his own countermeasures.

"This matter is very important at the moment, you take a group of people to use space spells, enter the blockade area, take the two things in my hand, find the ghost, and force the ghost to drink the potion!" Victor said, taking out a token from his hand, this token is the knight token that Victor ordered many undead, and there are at least 10,000 skeletons and undead in the token.

There is also a bottle of potion.

Victor knew the risks of traversing the Dimensional Storm, and Sterling was a calm man with a strong lord contract ahead of him, and he couldn't betray himself. Then the other possibility is that Sterling has relapsed into old problems and is delirious.

The potion that Victor took out right now was to solve the sanity problem of Stirling's ghost.

"Once the ghost drinks the potion, it will soon return to its senses. Then you gave him the token, and said that I wanted him to run away far away, to the north of the mountains of Skad, and to meet me there, without mistake. In addition, the soldiers and horses in this token are at his disposal. Victor waved his arm, and both fell on the old mage at the same time.

The mage holds potions and tokens in his hands.

The potion was contained in a transparent crystal bottle, but the potion inside was shockingly black, and although it was tightly sealed, a disgusting breath of death was pouring out continuously. Look at the token again, there is blood red in the pitch black, non-gold, non-iron, and all kinds of strange runes are engraved on it, heavy and abnormal.

"The subordinate understood. This will be done. ”

"Good!" Victor thought for a while, Ling You's arrangement, and overturned his command just now, "After the ghost recovers his senses, let him not go far, go to a few places outside the Golden City, and absorb some soul flesh." Then you quietly release the news that only 'that thing' can deal with the ghost, and I have my own arrangements for the rest. ”

The old mage nodded, and as for what Victor said, the old mage was very clear in his heart, and he didn't ask too much. It seems that Victor did this to mobilize that item from the academy warehouse, and then let the ghost of death intercept it secretly.

"This thing only needs to be successful, not failing! In addition, the ugly secrets between the various nobles that you collected before can also be activated, and we are taking this opportunity to reshuffle the cards. Victor concluded.

In the eyes of the Death Knight, although Sterling's rebellion is a crisis, Victor believes that no one in the current Golden City can deal with the 10,000-year-old ghost at its peak. No one will know how to kill it at all.

And as long as Sterling doesn't die, his foundation in the City of Gold will not be shaken. Taking advantage of the chaos, Victor can also use the previous layout to seek some benefits for himself. This is the ability to take advantage of opportunities in battle, and Victor will not allow himself to be passive forever.

Of course, having made so many arrangements, there is only one key point in the matter.

That is, whether the old mage and the others can make Sterling recover his senses in the first time and act according to his own arrangement. If it can't be done, then all opportunities will be empty talk, and the abyss forces will always be passive. Only with the restoration of Sterling can passivity turn into initiative.

It is precisely for this reason that Victor sternly emphasized that this operation must only succeed, not fail.

The plan is good, and if you think about it, it may even be possible to make the abyss forces in the Golden City take control of the Golden City in one fell swoop, but will things really go as smoothly as the Death Knight thinks?

……

At the same time as the round table was convening, Alan was invited by the city lord Enriquez and had already rushed to the edge of the slum. (To be continued.) )
