Ten days later, Ron arrived in Knner City, where there is a secret stronghold of the Crimson Blade, where the wizards of the Crimson Blade will use the power of the leyline nodes to open a portal into the Miracle Forest.

Perhaps because of its location in the leyline node, the concentration of elements in Koner City is stronger than in other places, and Ron found that there are many wizard apprentices living in Kona City, although most of them are low-level apprentices.

Passing through the crowd, there was a quaint flower shop in a secluded alley, and outside the flower shop hung a slightly old cracked black wood sign, the handwriting on which was blurred, but Ron knew that it was just an illusion, and the real message of the sign was hidden in those small cracks.

Hidden in those cracks are several cryptic ancient Hebrew words, joined together to mean dawn.

"The dawn that competes with the polar night. ”

Ron muttered to himself as he knocked on the door of the flower shop.

Perhaps due to its remote location, the alley is relatively deserted, and most of the small shops in the alley are closed, as is the dawn flower shop.

After three taps, Ron stood in the doorway and waited.

The door was quickly opened, and it was opened by a young man with a freckled face, who, after taking a deep look at Ron through the crack in the door, opened the door through a gap just large enough for one person to pass through, and motioned for Ron to enter.

Ron's brows furrowed imperceptibly, and although the person who opened the door was using indifference to hide his true emotions, Ron still felt a trace of hostility in his scrutinizing gaze.

The layout of the flower shop is simple and clear, dark green pothos crawls all over the roof, and pots of star flowers with a faint fragrance of flowers are scattered around.

Ron followed the other man, and after passing through a long corridor that spiraled downward, his vision suddenly opened up.

It is a well-lit underground hall.

There is a thick carpet on the floor, expensive oil paintings on the walls, and magic lamps dotted overhead.

The whole hall exudes an air of extravagance.

"Ron. Theos was the first to greet him, whispering, "Welcome." ”

"Thank you for your help during this time. Ron smiled back.

After a brief exchange of pleasantries, Ron's eyes looked around, in addition to more than a dozen apprentices with different breaths of different strengths and weaknesses in the hall, there were also several formal wizards with deep breaths who were building a complex witch circle in the center of the hall.

Perhaps for fear of interfering with the drawing of several wizards, the apprentices in the hall did not make a loud noise, most of them were carefully observing this extremely complex witch array, and a few people were talking softly.

The freckled young man who had shown Ron the way was whispering to a peer of his age, occasionally sneaking a glance at Ron.

"Who are they?" asked Ron.

"They?" Theos followed Ron's gaze, "I don't know either, in fact I haven't seen most of the people here today." ”

"But someone should know them, so I'm going to call him. ”

Ron's enthusiasm made Ron a little uncomfortable, but Theos was unaware.

A moment later, accompanied by Theos, a slightly chubby young man approached.

"We met once in the Fertile Grasslands. The chubby man took the initiative to greet Ron, "Reacquaint, I'm Green, a puppeteer." ”

"It turned out to be you. Ron quickly remembered the powerful golden puppet, but what made Ron remember more was the news that the other party was well-informed.

After Theos whispered a question in Green's ear, Green nodded, and then whispered.

"Those two are both bloodline apprentices of Lord Gardon, and like you, they only joined the Crimson Blade not long ago, and they are both Intensive Cultivation Gold Elixirs. ”

Listening to Green's explanation, Ron immediately knew the source of the other party's hostility, Lord Garden is a second-order wizard who has been famous in the South China Sea for a long time, and is also proficient in alchemy potions, unlike Elvis, who is alone, this Lord Garden has a large family behind him.

This Lord Garden had also publicly ridiculed Elvis as a "poor imitator" before, and at that time, Elvis was only a first-order wizard, and he could not compare with this Lord Garden in terms of strength and fame, so he had to swallow his anger.

When Elvis and Garden had an equal status, the Earl of Garden restrained his arrogance slightly, although Elvis never mentioned the feud between the two, but Ron knew that the two had been secretly fighting.

It is clear that the feud between the two has not only existed between the two, but also between the two apprentices of Ron and Garden's blood.

"This time, we have ten places to enter the Miracle Forest, and the competition within the Scarlet Blade for these ten places is also fierce, and Earl Garden spent a lot of money to send these two of his bloodline apprentices into the Miracle Forest, but in the end, he only got one place. ”

"In fact, he could have won two places, but Theos insisted on leaving one place for you, because this opportunity to enter the Miracle Forest was obtained by Theos, so after careful consideration, His Excellency the wizard above cut one place for Lord Garden and left it for you. ”

"I think the guy you squeezed out of the spot should hate you by now. ”

Ron glanced at Theos in surprise, obviously he didn't expect his place to be snatched up, Garden paid a lot of price for the place, Theos won this place for himself as an apprentice, obviously he also had to pay a lot of price, even if he got back the copy of "Miracle Forest".

Perhaps sensing Ron's gaze, Theos shrugged, "You deserve it, Miracle Forest has brought me enough surprises." ”

"I think you should be careful, Theos chose you, and there are quite a few people who chose those two. Green reminded.

"The resources of the Crimson Blade are not unlimited, and you may not feel it when you are both apprentices, but if the other party leads the way to a full-fledged wizard, it will definitely affect the tilt of your resources. ”

"So you have to not only worry about the other party's black hands, but also be a full-fledged wizard who is more advanced than them. ”

Ron nodded thoughtfully, whether it was for Mentor Elvis or for himself, he couldn't afford to lose this competition with the other party.

If you want to have a transcendent position in the Crimson Blade, you must step on the opponent.

With a fluctuation of energy, the complex witch array in the center of the hall had been constructed.

Under the joint guidance of several wizards, the leyline energy poured into the witch array, and a bright vortex gradually appeared in the sky above the witch array.

When the vortex was fully formed, the Miracle Forest slowly floated into the vortex, and as a soft light shone through the vortex on everyone's faces, Ron knew that the portal to the Miracle Forest had opened.
