The city where the national competition was held was the imperial capital of Xuanzesfa.

There is a strange thing about this competition, because there is no magic academy in the imperial capital, everything is hosted by the demon god, and the specific address is in the west of the imperial capital. It's very vast, with plains, hills, forests, deserts, swamps, and so on. In the past, it was used as a training ground for the royal army, as well as a training ground for magicians.

The Demon Temple is located to the south of the Imperial Capital of Xuanzes, and to the north is the royal palace of the Empire.

When he arrived in the imperial capital, the ninth prince suddenly said to Lu Tianyu, "Master, can you come with me?"

Lu Tianyu looked at the others, and Feng Lingxue said, "Captain, you two masters and apprentices should have a good chat." ”

The mysterious and sneaky behavior of the Nine Princes made Lu Tianyu very puzzled. But he followed him to the other side of the ship's deck.

When he got to the side, the Nine Princes suddenly cast the Sealing Enchantment.

Lu Tianyu looked at him with a puzzled expression.

"That master...... I said...... "The ninth prince stumbled, and stopped talking, obviously casting a seal enchantment, and he was afraid that others would eavesdrop."

Lu Tianyu wanted to urge him like this, but the other party was a prince after all, even if he recognized himself as a master, it was not easy to be so direct.

"What's the matter?" Lu Tianyu asked.

"I actually...... Master, what do you think of me as a person?" the ninth prince looked funny.

If you have any impression of this prince, Lu Tianyu only thinks that he is quite two. Of course, you can't tell him so directly.

"Very hearty. He thought for a moment and then said.

"What do you mean to be hearty?"

"It's like frankness. ”

"Oh, yes. The Ninth Prince smiled, then came closer and said, "Because I am a prince, if I ask others, most people will not tell me the truth, you are different, you will not say flattery because I am the Ninth Prince." Master, you won't be able to. ”

Lu Tianyu sweated in his heart, and said in his heart, I didn't tell the truth either.

"Actually, I want to tell you something serious, but it'......"

He suddenly stopped. Because Shangguan Tianlong was walking towards them.

Shangguan Tianlong had been mixed with Du Shasha and the Duma team before, and when he came back, he saw Lu Tianyu and the Nine Princes together, so he walked over. But when he was seen by the wind chime, he hurriedly pulled him aside, so as not to disturb the two of them. She nodded at the two of them and smiled, meaning: You keep talking.

Only then did the Ninth Prince continue: "Actually, before leaving, the dean told me something. Something about you, master. ”

Lu Tianyu was shocked, the dean would not tell such a prince his secret, right? That dean has never played cards according to the convention.

"And then?" he asked.

"The dean said, master, your aunt is the agent, her name is Lu Feifei, right? ”

The ninth prince was in an affirmative tone, and Lu Tianyu nodded: "Hmm." ”

"I heard my father say that among the three major agents, Lu Feifei is the person he trusts the most. My father, the King, has agreed to her appointed heir, and that is you. Actually, I can't believe why my father would trust someone who doesn't understand it at all. Just because this person is the person appointed by the person he trusts. But I feel very lucky to meet you, Master, now. If it's a master, I'm sure the master will be fine. ”

"Thank you for your trust. But, to be honest, I haven't decided whether or not to inherit my aunt's job. ”

"Didn't your aunt give you the ring?"

"Do you mean this?" Lu Tianyu took out the Substitute Ring.

"Exactly. The Ninth Prince smiled and said, "Master, do you know that with it, you can enter and leave the palace freely. Transportation is free. Meals and accommodation are also free of charge. There are also many areas that are off-limits. You're now a quasi-agent. ”

"Quasi-Agent?" Lu Tianyu's eyes lit up, if this identity helps to rescue his sister, then he must make good use of it, "If you become a Substitute, are there any other privileges?"

Needless to say, the Acting Agent represents the will of the king and can also use the local army. ”

It has such a lot of authority!

"However, after your aunt's death, there is now only one surrogate. Another surrogate has betrayed his father. It's a pity that my father has not been able to grasp his handle. ”

Lu Tianyu heard her aunt talk about it. So I also understand the relationship between the surrogate and the demon god, and the relationship between the demon god and the royal family. The substitute is not subject to the Demon God, but he cannot interfere with him either. And in this country, the demon god and the royal family are in a relationship of lips and teeth, so the king can't do anything about the demon god for a while. Now, the power of the demon god is growing, and it has threatened the safety of the royal family.

"After the agent took refuge in the Demon God, the power of the Demon God became stronger. My father, the King, felt the need to take steps to eliminate the threat of the Demon God, so he kept a secret watch on his every move. It wasn't until recently that one of his secrets was finally discovered. ”

"Secret?" Lu Tianyu faintly felt that the prince came with him, as if he was not making soy sauce. Perhaps, he is not such a two-person person.

"It might be more accurate to say that it is a conspiracy. We found out that the Demon King has been using the National Magic Tournament, and the purpose of holding the Magic Contest every ten years is just to give himself a network of more excellent new generation magicians. ”

"A good magician, didn't he enter the palace and serve your royal family, and could he still buy us students?"

"It's not a buyout, it's control. ”

Control?Could it be that the demon god also has the magic of mind control?Lu Tianyu waited for the next step of the Nine Princes.

"The war with Xuan Zesfa has just ended, and he immediately restarted the National Magic Tournament, which was postponed due to the war, and we speculate that he is planning some bigger conspiracy. Now is another extraordinary period, and the dean said that the times may usher in changes. The Demon God must be more aware of this. ”

"And how does he control the students?"

"It's really not clear, but if you knew, it would be much easier. ”

If he knew that the demon god was controlling the students, maybe the king could use this as an excuse to eradicate the demon god, right?

"So, as long as we find evidence, we can destroy the demon god?"

"Hmm. As long as you find evidence, you can crusade against him and choose another demon god. ”

This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. Lu Tianyu thought to himself,

"Tomorrow the tournament starts, will the Demon God appear?"

"As is customary, he's definitely going to show up. The dean said to me, Master, you have a grudge against the Demon God, and he arrested your sister. You're in a magic contest to save your sister and become stronger, right?"

Did the dean even tell him this? Lu Tianyu had no choice but to confess: "Yes." ”

"Then we're on the same page. The Ninth Prince smiled and said, "Our master and apprentice will join forces to kill the Demon God." ”

Lu Tianyu looked at him and couldn't help but wonder a little whether the Ninth Prince was a real "two" or a fake "two".
