Chapter 898: Wizard Maren
"Captain, the Evil Knight has captured the miners here!" exclaimed a high-ranking wizard named Brent as he found more clues as he searched for the traces.
"Damn, Wizard Beecham is too greedy, this is a second-tier battlefield, and the Wizards' Guild forbids sending miners here!" Senior Wizard Hogg cursed in a deep voice.
In the past, the second-tier powerstone mines were mined by miners, but these powerstone mines, especially the non-diamond powerstone mines, the paladins also attacked for these miners, just to capture these miners back to the evil country to replenish the population, and to easily fight the guardian wizards.
Therefore, in order to reduce the death of miners, and in order to reduce the attention of the evil country to non-diamond powerstone mines, the wizarding guild no longer allows miners to mine powerstone.
"Captain, the attack on Wizard Beecham may not be revenge on us, but for their own reasons!" said Senior Lamb Wizard, shaking his head.
After so many years of research, the Wizards' Guild has come to know that the source of the power of those paladins is given by their gods, and the power of the gods comes from faith, and the more people can get, the more faith they can get.
Population is power for the Evil Nation, which is why the Evil Nation is crazy to plunder the population.
In order to prevent the Evil Nation from plundering the population, the Wizards' Guild has divided the battlefield into first, second, and third lines, as well as long-range battlefields after years of fighting against the Evil Nation.
The first line is the most dangerous place, the battle there is extremely dangerous, and it is necessary to be ready to fight at any time on the front line battlefield, and it is also the most important defensive place for the wizarding guild, where the most powerful defensive front is arranged to resist the direct impact of the evil country.
The second line is a little farther away from the evil country, where the wizarding guild basically evacuates all the population, but some resources cannot be moved, so they need to be protected.
In the past, they only had to protect the powerstone mines that produced diamonds, but as the paladins had more and more wizarding circles and magic items in their hands, other powerstone mines also became their targets, but the demand was much smaller.
The second-line battlefield requires the evil country to open the portal to reach, and the limit of the portal is ten high-level paladins, but the limit teleportation is generally not used, and that kind of teleportation will consume a lot of faith power, like the appearance of ten high-level paladins when the third squad is attacked, which will surprise the team members.
The third line is a place farther away from the evil country, due to the extremely wide range of the third-line battlefield, so it is impossible to evacuate everyone, and all the cities in the third-line battlefield are garrisoned by many high-level wizards.
The country of evil can only come through the portal, but the limit of the portal is lower, only three high-level paladins can pass through, of course, this is also the limit, if you really send three high-level paladins, the portal has a certain probability of instability, and it will consume a lot of faith power.
The ranged battlefield is a much larger area, and the wizarding guild cannot set its maximum limit, but the wizarding guild has found that the evil kingdom will only open portals in large cities, not in less populated cities.
Therefore, in every big city, there are at least one or more high-level wizards stationed there, and with the addition of other professions, the defense effect is quite good, and the number of times that the evil country can succeed is very small.
The loss of this fire-type powerstone mine this time is very serious, due to the destruction of the foundation of the magic circle, it will take at least a month to repair this powerstone mine, plus the captured miners, will make the high wizard Beecham and his team be punished by the wizarding guild.
After a while, the high-ranking wizard in charge of the inspection had already checked the entire camp and made a list of the losses.
"Everyone in the squad is here, code name one!" The spiritual power of the senior wizard of Hogg suddenly connected to all the senior wizards of the third squad.
Codename One is the most dangerous signal, an emergency defense signal, which indicates the presence of a particularly powerful enemy.
And there is only one possibility that can make Hogg High Wizard say this code name, and that is that the powerful existence of more than twenty level high wizards appears around.
Abel and the other high-level wizards appeared next to the Hogg high-level wizards almost at the same time, and the ten high-level wizards formed a defensive formation.
Able couldn't blend in, so he could only stay on one side of the defensive formation, carefully using his own perception to look around.
However, neither his mental power nor his Great Knight Elder Spiritual Sense could detect any dangerous aura, but at the same time, he understood that it was impossible for a senior wizard of Hogg to joke about such a thing.
"Captain, what did you find?" asked Senior Lamb with a serious face.
"The breath around here is not right, I feel a terrible suppressive force, and my wizard crystal is a little difficult to function!" said the senior wizard of Hogg with a heavy face.
Senior Wizard Lamb knows the true strength of Senior Wizard Hogg, Senior Wizard Hogg himself is already at the peak of the twentieth level Senior Wizard, as long as he can master the power of the rules, he can be promoted to a Wizard of the Rules.
Of course, this process is not easy, a hundred level twenty high-level wizards can be promoted to the ratio of one rule wizard, so that the vast majority of high-level wizards are trapped above the level twenty high-level wizards.
Every existence that can become a level 20 high-level wizard is a true genius among wizards, and their wizard crystal condensation has almost reached the limit that wizards can reach, and in this alone, it is not comparable to ordinary high-level wizards.
If the wizard crystal of a high-level wizard of Hogg can be suppressed, it goes without saying that it must be a rule wizard.
"We're the third squad of the Lightning Series, and we're on a support mission for the Wizards' Guild, who is here?" exclaimed Senior Hogg Wizard.
His voice exploded in the air, and it was already clear in his heart that this must be a hostile rule wizard, otherwise he would not be suppressed directly.
"Boom!" came a laugh like a night owl, and although he didn't speak, it made the face of the High Wizard of Hogg change greatly.
"Trouble, this is an old rule wizard, I'll hold him down in a while, everyone scatter and flee, don't hesitate a little!" said the senior wizard of Hogg softly.
The Hogg High Wizard, who knew the rules wizards very well, knew far more about the rules wizards than the other high wizards in the team, and this unhuman voice showed that he was a veteran rules wizard who had survived for countless years.
Rule wizards also have a lifespan, but rule wizards can use some methods to delay the existence of life in a variety of ways, some of which are very scary.
The most famous is the use of sacrificial research on death, replacing some parts of the body with necromancers, or using dwarven puppet technology to replace part of the body with a puppet, or replacing one's own body with part of the body of a spirit animal, etc.
In short, in order to survive, the rule wizard has come up with a variety of methods, and according to the legend, as long as the rule wizard can continue to cultivate, at some point in the future, he can reorganize his body, no matter how many body modifications he has undergone, he can become a human body again, and he will be stronger.
It is precisely this legend that makes rule wizards do anything to survive, and today they are facing such an old rule wizard.
"Captain, let's fight together, when did our lightning family leave our companions behind!" said Senior Lamb in a deep voice, and all members of the team looked resolute.
"Nonsense, as long as you can escape, the lightning family will naturally have a rule wizard to help me take revenge, everyone is dead here, who can let the organization know about this?"
"Hogg Wizard, I want Wizard Abel to stay, and the other wizards will get out of here!" said the hidden rules wizard like the sound of sandpaper rubbing against a wooden plank.
"My lord, why do you want to embarrass a rank sixteen little wizard?" asked the Hogg High Wizard in a loud voice.
"I don't want to offend the Lightning family too much, but if you don't leave, don't blame me for being ruthless!" said the Rule Wizard again, but as you could tell, his patience seemed to run out.
"Captain, you go first!" Abel said in a deep voice.
"Shut up, you're a member of the Inazuma family, you're a wizard of the third squad, we're all dead, and we won't let you escape!" Senior Hogg rebuked.
"Fight and fight, I haven't fought a rule wizard yet!" Senior Lamb said in a deep voice as he tightened his staff in his hand.
Although the other senior wizards in the team looked nervous, no one raised any objections, and when they reached their level, especially those with the inheritance of the lightning line, all the team members knew that if they made a decision to flee here against their intentions now, it would be difficult to be promoted in the future.
The lightning system is different from the frozen system and the fire system, without an indomitable mentality, it is impossible to promote to the next level, which is also an important reason why the atmosphere in the lightning system is so good.
Losing hope of promotion is better than dying for these high-ranking wizards.
Abel looked at the senior wizards of Hogg and the other members of the team, these senior wizards who had acted for him when they didn't know each other, they were still so resolute in the face of powerful enemies.
He didn't want to bother these friends he had just met, brothers, and his mental power swept over his body, and he collected all the important items on his body into the Heradic cube on his right arm.
Whether it is a transformation necklace, a space beast ring, or a variety of equipment on the body, it cannot be obtained by others, and once obtained, it may greatly increase the strength of the enemy.
He didn't know what would happen to the Heradic cube if he was killed, but the safest place for him right now was the Heradic cube.
There were only two space bags left on his body to hang around his waist, and the instantaneous activity of his spiritual power just now completely concealed the other high-level wizards, and even the rule wizard did not expect that he would still think about the items on his body at such a time.
In the mind of the rule wizard, as long as Abel does not run away, then everything Abel has is his.
"Captain, everyone, if I can live, goodbye!" Abel quickly stepped back, and then his body turned into a white light and 'teleported' away from the group.
"Wizard Abel!" Senior Wizard Hogg exclaimed, of course he knew that Able was not escaping alone, this was Abel's desire to exchange the lives of the entire team of wizards with the life of one person.
Abel had already deployed his full strength at this time, five hundred meters was the maximum range of his spiritual power, and he could have a distance of five hundred meters every time he 'teleported'.
He also wondered why the rule wizard hadn't chased after him.
In a minute, he had already escaped for dozens of miles, which was already a crazy speed, and just when he was glad that he was safe, a mountain of suppressive force came from all directions.
Originally, the 'teleportation' spell pattern in Abel's hand was under this suppressive force, and he could no longer invoke any mana from the wizard's crystal, and the 'teleportation' spell pattern turned into a piece of starlight and disappeared like foam.
"Hello Wizard Abel, I'm Wizard Maren of the Ice Wind Clan!" a wizard in gray robes flashed in front of Abel, his shrill voice was extremely graceful.
"Ice Wind Series!" Abel was shocked in his heart, his enmity with the Ice Wind Department was not light, and his destruction of Frost City caused the Ice Wind Department to suffer heavy losses.
"Master Wizard Maren, my feud with the Ice Wind Family has been mediated by the Wizards Guild after the Wizard War, aren't you afraid of the retaliation of the Lightning Family?" Abel stabilized his emotions and said in a deep voice.
"Wizard Abel, do you know what the Ice Wind Formation has for me? The Ice Wind Formation is the provider of my cultivation resources, but now that I have found a better resource provider, the Ice Wind Formation will be destroyed if it is destroyed!"
Abel felt a terrible pressure on Wizard Mullen, because Wizard Mullen's face was a frozen face, and when he spoke, he didn't even move his mouth, as if the face was a mask.
"Wizard Abel, don't you want to ask who is the provider of the resources?" Wizard Maren seemed to have not spoken properly to others for a long time, and seemed to be a little chattering.
Abel only thought about how to escape from here, and how to think about anything else.
There are several 'teleportation' spell scrolls in the space bag around his waist, but he can't even invoke mana, and this 'teleportation' can't be cast, even if he really casts 'teleportation', it can be seen from the process of escaping just now that he can't escape the pursuit of Wizard Maren.
"Wizard Abel, do you know, when I learned from Maltz that you had a steel giant, I suspected that it was a stone giant, and when I received the information that you appeared in this area, I came to the mining area where you were stationed, and found that there was no powerstone there, and I knew that the steel giant was a stone giant!"
