"The battle on the tower has begun."

The heavy dark clouds covered the sun like a flock of crows, and in the center of the thunder that gathered, a middle-aged man in a dress stood in the air with his hands in his sleeves.

He had a decent demeanor, and from the outward appearance he looked like a gentleman of high society, and his chin was covered with blue-gray stubble, and he was full of majesty; However, this person's eyes give a gloomy impression all the time.

"I'm afraid I can't count on the helpers you hired now."

He looked down at the upside-down spire below, his expression indifferent.

"Next, it's your turn."

……

The Wizard's Tower, which has been cut in two, appears to be upside down and the tops are facing each other.

Like the apex of two magnets, bursting out with surging repulsion and suction, wave after wave swept around, and countless fragments of buildings were like meteorites around the planets being attracted one after another, slowly rotating in the air along a specific orbit, flowing like a river, and finally forming a spectacle like a planetary belt in astronomy.

In the distorted field of vision of the vast force created by this force, stood an old man with a long beard and an astrological robe, his appearance still blurred.

"I've said before, young man, this high-minded look is really not for you."

Mr. Green smiled.

"You know what? Even if you become Steppenwolf, you're still like an upstart. A person who climbs up from the bottom, no matter how hard he tries to dust off the dirt on his body, will still be fundamentally different from someone who really has a bloodline. ”

"Even if it is a descendant of the Crown family who has long since fallen - even she herself does not know the origin of her own bloodline, that noble beauty is still so breathtaking...... Am I right? ”

"You mean my students?"

Longman Hall replied quietly.

"You seem to have made a mistake. I just took a fancy to her talent and wanted to make good use of it, the little girl is really beautiful, this is indeed because of the witch blood on her body. As for the so-called 'natural nobility', I don't see that kind of thing. ”

"Hehe, it seems that you don't care anymore?"

The old man's voice was low.

"I thought you were jealous of her and the brilliance that you wanted to take it for yourself, and tried your best to torture and destroy it."

"Are you jealous......

The middle-aged man sighed.

"If you want to talk about jealousy, you do. It's just that because he was born with a superior bloodline, he was able to ascend to the sky in one step at a young age, and even now, he can be on an equal footing with me, a legendary wizard. ”

"But above that, there is no point in possessing or destroying. Is it possible to change oneself by destroying others? ”

“…… Boring conclusion. The current you are very different from the past you. ”

The old man was like a bird free from gravity, and his aging body slowly rose lightly, confronting him.

"My past self? I'm afraid it's 'me in your imagination'. How long ago was that? Fifty years? Or a hundred years? ”

"Of course you came to me to replace Howard Nuren and become a legendary wizard—it seemed to me as if time had never passed, and it seemed like yesterday in retrospect."

Marion Green laughed "hehe", a kind smile.

"It is precisely because I am a mediocre person that I have strong desires and desperate ambitions, and that ugly but beautiful jealousy still impresses me to this day."

"I see. That's how you see me...... It's a pity, it seems that you don't know anything, you don't know anything right now. ”

Mr. Hall sighed as if he was sighing in pity, but his gloomy face was one of suppressed anger, and the muffled thunder rolling through the dark clouds seemed to be a harbinger of the surging heart of the wizard.

"I have a lot of respect for you. To be exact, the man I respect is the former Marion Green, who saved the tower more than once during his time as Steppenwolf, including that time a hundred years ago. If he hadn't supported Evelyn behind him and driven Howard Nuren out, I'm afraid the entire tower would have been turned upside down by that lawless dark wizard. But ......"

Longman raised a hand and said in a deep voice.

"That's not about you now—"

"As I said earlier, time doesn't mean anything to me. If you think there is any difference between 'me 100 years ago' and 'me now', it's not me who really changes, it's your thoughts. ”

"If you're a real 'Marion Green,' you might be qualified to make that assessment."

Longman Hall replied lightly.

“…… What are you talking about? ”

Facing the old wizard who felt incredulous, he seemed to finally get bored, and shook his raised hand down.

"Okay, that's all the nonsense......"

Before the words fell, a bolt of lightning suddenly fell from the cloud under Mr. Longman's feet, followed by a dozen or dozens of lightning roaring down!

"Next, let's have a one-on-one duel."

"Decided...... Hmph, do you think that your own strength is enough to fight me? ”

In the face of the attack of the thunderstorm like the collapse of the sky, the old man stood with his hands in the storm, but his cloudy pupils widened slightly.

The reason why legendary wizards can become "apex" is that there is a gap between them and ordinary wizards, that is, "legendary magic"; And if a wizard can go one step further and reach the realm of "crowned", which is only one step away from the saint and the demon king, his mark is to master two or more legendary magics-

In other words, the strength of the Crowned Wizard is approximately equal to that of a Legendary Wizard with the same amount of magic as he wields, and there is still a stark gap in strength between the two.

The seemingly surging thunder and furious waves, wrapped in violent storms and rains, meandered in the depths of the sky, but when they touched the part of the space that wrapped the spire, they were distorted and weakened by the invisible huge force, and finally disappeared without a trace.

Offensive and defensive transitions –

In the first round, the attacking side and the defending side cancel each other out, which is equivalent to a fruitless temptation; But Marion Green raised his hand for the first time.

The second legendary magic in the old wizard's possession has been activated.

In a world out of reach of the naked eye, a huge whirlpool was forming, and a blue-black spirit crawled out of the arm bush.

Marion Green is not only a legend in the realm of nature, but also a master of psychics: like Rasputchin, he has a guardian spirit of the legendary rank!

Maintaining two legendary spells at the same time is a huge burden for the old wizard. But that's exactly the right tactic right now: avoid the needless mana drain that is prevalent in the battles of legendary wizards, and he will defeat and even destroy his opponents with a thunderous force!

However, at this moment, the guardian spirit, which was about to take shape at the junction of the spirit world and the real world, suddenly stopped moving—the vortex that was originally running at high speed was slowing down little by little at a speed visible to the naked eye, and finally completely solidified, like an insect sealed in amber.

"This is ...... 'realm'?! Is that you, Rorel! ”

The old man was shocked and angry, and looked incredulously into the void that should have been empty.

"Scumbag! Didn't you say it was a one-on-one fight? ”

"According to the rules, duels between wizards are naturally one-on-one......"

From the depths of the thunderclouds came the loud laughter of a middle-aged man.

"Unfortunately, I never said it would be a fair duel. As you said, a nouveau riche like me who climbed up from the bottom and is still covered in mud like me likes to do nothing but break the rules and climb up desperately! ”
