Chapter 124: Confrontation across the river

Tonight, the lights on both sides of the Legon River in the royal capital are shining, and the parades on both sides are in full swing. The bonfires on the other side of the market had already stained half of the sky red, and the sky above the Royal Magic Tower had burst into colorful magical fireworks.

Above the sparkling water reflected by the light of the sky, six people stood opposite each other. There is only one person on this side near the civilian area, and it is naturally the Thousand Thousand Sword Saint Benegas. On the side of the aristocratic quarter, there are four men and one woman, divided into two groups.

One group came from the Temple of Nature, wearing a sacrificial robe was Roland, the chief priest of the royal capital, and there was a burly man in silver armor beside him, who was the Grand Knight of Mendoza, the commander of the royal palace army.

The other group of people came from the Royal Magic Tower, the first middle-aged man was Master Kona, the tower owner of the Tower of Alchemy, and behind him, a slender man who could not tell his age was Master Gabriel of the Tower of Radiant Wings, and another white-haired woman in a blue robe with a cold face was Master Layla, one of the twin tower owners of the Tower of Ice.

The Temple of Nature and the Royal Magic Tower have discovered the anomalies on the other side, and they have dispatched experts to investigate. Unexpectedly, before he reached the civilian area, he was stopped on the river by the sudden appearance of the Thousand Thousand Sword Saints.

"The Sage of Benegas. They saluted him. Although each of them had extremely high status, in front of a sage, they could only be regarded as juniors.

Benegas nodded and said, "That's it, guys. You can go back. ”

The visitors looked at each other, and finally Priest Roland asked, "Sage, you are from the other side, can you tell us what happened in the market area?"

"No comment. Benegas said.

Roland stared at Benegas, not expecting the other party to be so tough. Under normal circumstances, although the nature temple will not easily offend the sage, the sage will definitely give the nature temple enough respect. He explained with a serious expression: "The priest on duty in the civilian area of the Temple of Nature reported to us that since half an hour ago, the people who participated in the parade behaved very strangely, as if they had been manipulated by magic. The priest on duty stopped a few people and cast a meditation spell on them, so that they could slowly recover from their frenzied state, but the situation of the people outside became more and more serious, the scope of madness continued to expand, and there were even many hurtful incidents. Therefore, we must investigate whether there is any evil force carrying out any conspiracy in the royal capital. ”

Master Kona also said: "The Surveillance Eye on the Royal Magic Tower has observed a faint but wide range of spiritual power fluctuations, originally such an ordinary person's spiritual power fluctuations would not have triggered an alarm, but these spiritual powers gathered together, the energy contained is many times more powerful than the Sage's full force to cast spells. The Eye of Surveillance has activated the highest level of alarm. If someone uses such energy, the consequences will be very serious. So we can't help but come and see it on the ground. ”

The so-called Eye of Surveillance is a large magical device found in many large cities, usually controlled by a local magic tower. Depending on the design, it is possible to monitor high-intensity energy changes within a city, including mana fluctuations, vindictive energy fluctuations, or mental power fluctuations. The monitoring eyes of ordinary cities can often only monitor the fluctuations of fighting qi and magic power, and a large city like the royal capital of Everel is naturally equipped with the top monitoring eye, so even the fluctuation of mental power can be monitored.

Benegas, however, closed his eyes and ignored them.

"Lord Benegas, why are you holding us back from visiting?" Layla couldn't help but ask, seeing that Benegas was indifferent to the words of Priest Roland and Master Kona.

Benegas still had his eyes closed, ignoring her words.

Layla gritted her teeth and cast a short-distance teleportation, teleporting directly in the direction of the market. However, at the moment when she disappeared, more than ten meters behind Benegas, a sword light fell from the sky without warning, like a silver lightning bolt, directly penetrating the heavens and the earth.

Layla screamed back to her original position, but the hem of her robe disappeared for a while, revealing her calves. Benegas didn't even move, and directly used the power of the Qianren Realm to cut her out of the spatial crack that teleported magic. Although the sword just now didn't hit her, the power that split the sky really scared her.

Benegas opened his eyes and stared at the crowd with a sword-like gaze, "Behind me is the forbidden land now. The next time it falls, it's not the robe. ”

"Lord Benegas, when has this city become a forbidden place for you. Master Kona dissatisfied, "Do you want to divide the city from us?"

"After tonight, I will naturally leave, but tonight, I will not let you cross the river. Benegas said calmly.

"Lord Benegas, can you give us a reason? Although our realm is still far from you, this world still has to be reasonable. Roland said.

Benegas smiled coldly and said, "My reasoning is that I promised someone to block any master from crossing the Legon River, so that he can finish today's work with peace of mind." Now that I have made the promise of the Sage, I naturally want to do it. ”

"There are eighty percent of the population of the royal capital in the civilian area, and if these people go crazy en masse, I don't know what terrible results will happen. You know, we can't just let that change go unchecked. Roland insisted.

"The change is only temporary, after tonight, the royal capital will still be the royal capital, and everything will be as usual. ”

The few people present looked at each other, and Roland said, "If you want us to approve, please tell us what is going on next, and who is the one you promised?"

"No comment, all I can say is that nothing will happen. ”

"Lord Benegas, I'm afraid I won't be able to convince us that way. Roland shook his head and pulled out a wand made of twigs from his storage ring. Seeing this, the Grand Knight of Mendoza also took out his weapon, which was a spear.

On the other side, Master Layla took out her own weapon, a diamond-shaped ice crystal floating in front of her.

"Lord Benegas, we have no intention of making an enemy of you, but in this situation, we can only break through. Master Kona said, and he took out his long wand.

Master Gabriel, who had not made a sound, took out an orange-red sword, which itself was like a lava cast, and the orange and red colors on it were constantly flowing, which was passed down from the god of war and belonged to Gabriel's sword in the past: the scorching horn.

Benegas saw the few people who took out their weapons, but a smile appeared on his face, and then he raised a finger, "Sasso is not in the royal capital, you don't have a chance." ”

For a moment, the glow above the Legon River shimmered, overshadowing the fireworks of the Royal Magic Tower.
