Chapter 49 (Goodbye to the Great Magister)
Chapter 49
"Child...... Thank you for your hard work...... It's my father's fault that you have suffered so much, the shackles of the Piero Kingdom can't be broken by you alone, and it's also for my father to be unscamouflaged, too soft-hearted, if it can be gradual, maybe it won't cause the people to be so disgusted. Son, go back quickly, this place is not yours...... Remember...... Hope will not be annihilated...... Definitely not ......"
"Hey~ Prince Dead...... Wake up......" A familiar voice interrupted Nick's dream, which was perhaps not a dream.
"Here...... I seem to hear my father's voice. Nick woke up slowly, and a big face of Zeng Carlo appeared in front of Nick's eyes.
"Yes, you went to your father, and your father got you back again," said Zeng Carlo with a smile on his face, jokingly. "This is the land of the tribes, only half an hour away from your country. ”
"What about Wangcheng, what about Suga, what about my sister?" Vick sat up instantly, but a sharp pain in his chest caused him to fall back into bed again.
"The royal city has been captured, Suga has been imprisoned, and your sister has been taken prisoner. Zeng Carlo did not hide anything, he hoped that Nick could see the current situation.
"That'...... How could you, how could I...... There is no dead ......" Nick is confused and begins to speak incoherently!
"I haven't left, didn't I say, we'll see each other soon. The moment you destroyed the forge, the protective walls of the Piero border were gone, and I blended in with the rioting populace and arrived at the royal city. Zeng Carlo explained faintly, lighting a cigarette by the way. "After you lost consciousness, the wind wall naturally collapsed, and your archmage sealed your wounds with ice and threw you out of the royal city in the nick of time, and we found you before Dork could find you. ”
Nick struggled to recall the scene that Zeng Carlo had described for him, "What about my sister?"
"It's a shame that he's been manipulated by Dork's magic, and now ...... Captured, but ...... Dork and Suga make a deal in which Dork must keep Thana safe and Suga must repair the Magician Furnace. Zeng Carlo shook his head helplessly, and a puff of smoke came out of his mouth, "Silly boy...... You should really learn more from your teachers, and don't be impulsive. ”
"But I would like to admit your courage. You're doing the right thing, Pyke Pierro. ”
Vic and Zencarlo spent several days in their villages in the Land of the Clans, near the kingdom of Piero, wondering whether the prince was still attached to the kingdom or if he was unwilling to do so.
But on the fifth day, looking at the wall of magical energy that had reappeared above the kingdom of Piero, Nick had mixed feelings. The magic light furnace has been repaired, which means that his sister is safe for the time being.
From the last Coalition scout soldier to return, it was learned that Prince Dork officially became the regent and returned to the throne when Princess Rana came of age. And the traitor of the kingdom, Nick, has been executed by the hands of the Grand Magister Suga, this ...... The traitor prince who tries to break the comfortable life of the Magic Kingdom of Piero is known as the "Elemental Demon" by the people.
Thoughts returned to reality again, the team unconsciously approached the royal city in the memories of Dead, the seven of them watched from a distance, the suspended magic academy was still floating in the air, the royal city was still magnificent, and the people were still living and working in peace and contentment, perhaps, it didn't matter who was the king, as long as the magic light furnace was operating.
Nick plans to check the Sky Island first, he knows his teacher, and if the Tide Stone needs to be picked up by himself, it will definitely not be handed over to anyone.
Still can't attract the attention of others, this kind of infiltration mission Godhead team is naturally not the first time, so Miro, who is good at hiding, is responsible for walking with Vick. While the others temporarily stayed in the city at the foot of the royal city, Wesker and Jingyu monitored the movements of the royal city, while the frost mountain brothers and Zero Wave were responsible for collecting some information about the surrounding area.
Miro opened his black cloak and shrouded Nick in it, and a cloud of black mist flew towards the suspended empty island, taking advantage of the vacancy of the alternate guard mage, he came to the periphery of the Academy of Magic, this gorgeous and solemn academy, carrying too many memories of Nick, at this time, the magic surging in the magic furnace once again enveloped Nick strongly.
"Can you feel the Tide Stone? I can only feel the abundance of magic, a little oppressed. Miro whispered.
"I can't feel it, the power of the Magic Light Forge is too great, so we still try to keep our breath as low as possible, the magic guards rely on the Magic Light Forge so we don't have to be afraid, but the Grand Magus can easily detect us. Nick was relatively accustomed to this high concentration of magic, but his expression was still full of disgust.
Under the cover of Miro, the two entered the magic academy, and Nick barely saw the students, and the corridor was empty, even ...... It reveals a kind of depression and desolation.
Vick guided Miro's path, trying not to get close to the Archmagus's room, but Vic still had no sense of the Tide Stone, only the magic that seemed to freeze in the air.
"Is it in the wrong place?Where else could the tide stone be?" Miro was uncomfortable, he tried his best to get used to the magic energy around him, but his dark magic physique obviously couldn't perfectly receive this foreign magic power.
"Are you feeling unwell?" asked Nick when he noticed Miro's strange appearance.
"It's okay, I don't seem to fit in here...... Milo frowned slightly, and once again asked where Nick was going next.
"Underground, in the Hall of the Demonic Furnace, I suspect the Tidestone is there!" Vick could only speed up with Miro.
The two of them appeared in front of the door of the Forge Hall, but there were no guards here, and the door of the hall was also hidden...... It seems that Suga had long expected the arrival of Zombie.
"You're here...... It's nice to see you again. In front of the furnace, Suga stood there straight, now that the two had been exposed, Vick and Miro were in shape, facing the archmage of the Piero Kingdom, and the two of them tried not to cause any disgust from the old magician.
"Are you back to destroy the Forge again?" Suga didn't look back, and a faint voice came.
"That's one of the options, the main ...... We ...... for the Stone of the Tides," Nick looked at the back of his former teacher, his voice filled with helplessness.
Hearing this, Suga slowly turned around, this archmage was obviously a lot older and haggard, and he didn't know what he had experienced over the years, which made Nick feel a little heartache.
"The Tide Stone is here, but I hid it. Suga stretched out his hand and waved it in the empty hall, but Nick and Miro saw nothing.
"Nick, pick the key points...... I think it's a bit ...... Wrong. At this time, Miro was facing the magic light furnace, and the discomfort in his body became more and more obvious, and even beads of sweat were oozing from his forehead.
"Your friend...... It seems that something is uncomfortable. Suga looked at Miro on the side, and then at Vick, "You shouldn't come back, your sister is in Dork's hands, you can't do anything......" Suga said as she slowly walked towards Miro, who was panting.
"You...... It's a dark ......" Suga didn't pay any attention to the Vicion on the side, and stopped a few meters away from Miro, "Stupid...... I've taught you...... Dark magic is the most difficult to control, and if he is exposed to such a strong amount of primordial magic, he will lose control. Sue frowned and looked at Nick with reproachful eyes.
"What are you going to do with the Tidestones?" Miro asked, suppressing his discomfort and his voice seemed to be growling.
"Child, if you are a friend of Nick, then you should not get involved in it, get out of here and leave the kingdom of Piero. I will keep the Tide Stone and will not give it to anyone else. Suga said, shaking her head helplessly.
"We're going to attack the palace and face Dorke, teacher...... You won't object, will you? Nick picked up Miro, who was almost paralyzed, and asked again.
"I told you!!Get out of Pierro, your sister is in his hands, are you going to kill Pyna?" Suga's voice was a little out of control, but Nick could clearly hear that he was more helpless.
"Then you don't care, I won't let Dork get his way......" Hack dropped his last sentence and turned to walk out.
