Chapter 59: Alarm (II)

Historically, the Abyss Demon has invaded the Order Plane again and again, and the creatures in the Order Plane, no matter how powerful they are, but in terms of attributes, they cannot compare with the innate chaotic power of the Demon, which is the capital that the Demon is most proud of.

Realm, as the ability of the highest level demons, can only be fought against by the high-level angels under the seat of the Lord of Radiance, as well as the very few beings in the plane of order, and an abyss lord who has cast the realm is almost invincible in other planes other than the heavenly realm.

"It's not without precedent, there was once a human mage who did this. Beelzebub said calmly, "More than a thousand years ago, he came to the Abyss and defeated three great lords, including me, and the name of the magician in the human world is Faust. ”

Samael was shocked and said, "How can a human being be so powerful?"

"Perhaps, he is no longer human. Beelzebub sighed with emotion, recalling the earth-shattering battle a thousand years ago, even if he was as calm as him, he couldn't help but be in awe. "At that time, Faust's own strength was probably comparable to that of the legendary Lord Lucifer. ”

"I was amazed that the human boy who defeated me used the same power as Faust of the day. Beelzebub's eyes turned cold. "That power is neither of order nor of chaos, but it is equally powerful. ”

Samael felt uneasy, "Your Excellency Beelzebub, it seems that the plane of order really needs our attention, the heavenly realm has sent advent angels to that plane, and now there is such a powerful force of unknown origin, if we do nothing, it will be too passive." ”

"Now is not the time. Beelzebub shook his head, "I know from the mind of my praying that Michael seems to have appeared on that plane, and if it is him, even if you and I join forces, we are not sure of victory." And I have a hunch that the peace of that world will soon come to an end. ”

"How long have I been asleep?" Constantine rubbed his aching head.

"Six days. Karenna's answer startled him, "You had this thing in your hand when I scooped you out of the water. ”

She threw the crystal pendant at the boy on the big bed.

Constantine stretched out his hand to take it, carefully examining the seemingly ordinary pendant in his hand, the key to Faust's mausoleum in the mouth of the black-robed man.

After a moment, he smiled wryly, and felt that he had been a little too impulsive, all the information about the pendant, where did it come from, what was it, what was it for? He didn't know anything from beginning to end, and it was a shame for a bounty hunter to almost die twice in one night because of it.

"Thank you!" he said, putting the pendant away, "Anyway, where are we now?"

Before Karena could reply, the door to the room suddenly opened.

Walking in through the door was a ...... The word "walk" doesn't seem appropriate here, as the creature has no legs, but rather floats in the air, slowly drifting into the room

Its body was encased in a dark blue magical glow, like a condensed mist, its head and body completely disjointed, connected by a small glowing blue mist, and its head had only one eye, pale gold.

The eyes of the unknown creature gurgled and turned, and Constantine was furious at the sight.

Constantine looked at Karena with an expression of confusion.

Karena was calm, apparently not the first time she had seen the magical creature in the six days that the teenager had been unconscious, "It looks like it's coming for you, listen to what it has to say." ”

The magical creature turned its eyes to Constantine, and a finger-long beam of light shot out of its pale golden pupils, detecting his vital features.

After confirming that it was correct, an old but powerful voice came from the body of the magical creature, and the voice was owned by the Archmage of the Empire, Joey Cezreal, whom Constantine had seen in the underground tunnels of Olympia.

"Little one, is it okay, get up from my old man's bed and come to the third floor, well, you don't need to know the exact location, just follow my servant, this magical creature in front of you."

"As for the charming Lady of the Bloods next to you, I make an exception to allow you to enter my collection room, and you may pick a magical item of your choice and take it with you as a reward for your rescue of this stupid little creature from the smelly sewers. ”

After chattering for a while, the old man's voice slowly dissipated. Constantine struggled for a while to get out of bed, put on his mage robes, and followed the Magister's servant towards the third floor of the Magic Tower.

The interior of the Tower is quite spacious, much larger than it would look when it was outside.

On the first level, there are hundreds of aisles and experimental compartments, as complex as a maze of minotaurs in a fairy tale, and Constantine guessed that the old mage must have used some kind of spatial magic technology to change the spatial structure of the tower.

His mental talent in arcane power is quite good, and he can sense that the magic power circulation in the magic tower is extremely strong, and the turbulence of energy is surging in the tower, and in Constantine's perception, it is like a non-stop flow of water in a water pipe, which is transported to every corner of the tower in an orderly manner.

On the second layer, Constantine only saw a huge magic crystal, countless complex magic arrays emitting mysterious brilliance covering the floor, some floating in the air, like celestial bodies revolving around stars, orbiting around the magic crystal.

Based on Constantine's limited knowledge, it is speculated that this should be a crystal hub used to support a teleportation circle.

But when I came to the third floor, the painting style changed abruptly.

Constantine noticed that nothing was attached to magic on this level.

It is more like a place where the aristocracy and senior collectors lived, with round tables carved from emerald crystal, oak rattan chairs engraved with ancient elven characters, and hundreds of books on rosewood bookshelves, each of which was written centuries ago.

Hundreds of precious snow silks from the northwest of the empire hang from the ceiling, each with colorful shells, agate, and pearls tied to each silk, all of which are priceless treasures.

Seeing these many things that have nothing to do with magic, Constantine couldn't help but have a strange thought: Did this old guy Joey move which museum in the empire to his magic tower?

Several more magical creatures floated out of the room, carrying plates, saucers, knives and forks from all corners of the room, and set a sumptuous feast on the crystal round table.

A flash of blue light flashed, and Joey appeared in front of Constantine, spotless and personable.

"Sit. With a wave of his hand, the old mage came over and moved a chair to Constantine, while the old mage himself sat lazily in the precious rattan chair, raised his knife and fork, and began to enjoy his lunch.

Seeing the young man's curious eyes, the old mage chewed on the slices of meat and said vaguely: "These guys you see are creatures called demon spirits, they come from another plane, and they are themselves lifeforms composed of arcane energy, and you will learn about them in the plane biology textbook in the future." ”

"My old man found them on a journey through the Otherworld, and made a magical contract with them to be my servants, and honestly, the demons are much more useful than the stupid servants around the other archmagers. ”

The old mage waved his fork proudly, "They are very magical, and they have a high level of intelligence, and they can assist the mage in many tasks beautifully, such as magic experiments, guarding towers, drawing circles, refining scrolls, identifying materials, operating teleportation phalanxes, and even playing chess, unlike the golems made by alchemists, those idiots will only make a mess of the laboratory." ”

"The only downside is that the group of demon spirits are very picky eaters, they feed on magic crystals and other high-purity magic minerals, and they have to eat every few days, otherwise, they will quickly dissipate due to lack of energy. The old mage took out a red ** magic gem, crushed it, and sprinkled it into the air.

The demons swarmed as if they had seen a school of bait, and soon devoured the expensive rubies and danced merrily in the air.

As if to express their pleasure, the color of their bodies changed from blue to red, and a few of them even winked mischievously at the two people near the table.

Constantine frowned, "However, in that case, the cost must be quite large. ”

"Of course, little one, but there's never anything in this world that you can get without a price. The old mage said meaningfully.

"It just seems like a bit of a waste. Constantine said.

"As a magician, wealth is actually far more important than you think, I don't believe you open the "Mainland Magic Guide Directory", almost all of those great magicians who can be ranked among them have prominent family backgrounds, and abundant resources are the guarantee of their cultivation, since the golden age, the probability of civilians being able to become archmages has been pitiful. ”

The old mage said, "As far as I know, among the top ten mages in the continent today, in addition to me, seven of the other nine guys are from ancient magic families, and the remaining two are also somewhat involved. ”

Constantine sat down and took a closer look at the most revered magician in the entire Holy Empire.

The old man's face was clear, his hair was still black, and there were few wrinkles on his face, and he could vaguely see the traces of his youth, and his eyes flashed with the brilliance of wisdom, but the gaze of Constantine seemed to be a little complicated, and there were feelings of kindness and comfort to his descendants and old people, but there were also emotions that some other teenagers did not understand.

Constantine ignored the fragrant lunch on the table, and turned a deaf ear to the old mage's feelings, and asked a series of questions straight to the point: "I want to know, why did you come to save me that day? What is your relationship with the black magician and my mother?

He held up the crystal pendant and shook it in front of the old mage.

Joey didn't seem surprised by his question, picked up a square towel and wiped the grease on the side of his mouth, "I can answer your last question first, little guy, after I finish speaking, you can deduce the answers to the other three questions on your own, if I'm not mistaken, your admission written test score is a perfect score, which means that you answered my first question correctly, then you should remember that name." ”

Constantine nodded, "Her Highness Diana told me about the great man, the mage who founded the World Tree Council and built the City of Dawn, the Holy Land of Magic, St. Faust. ”

"I was a little surprised that Diana's little girl told you, not your mother. Joey raised an eyebrow, "Didn't your mother tell you her story?"

This question kept Constantine silent for a long time, and in fact he did not even know his mother's name until now.
