Seeing Gandalf like this, Duke also began to worry about his body, so he asked him with concern, "What's wrong Gandalf, are you okay?"

"I'm the Grand Magus, what can I do?"

Gandalf was still as proud as ever, but there was a tiredness in his tone that could not be concealed.

After hearing this, Duke also sat directly next to Gandalf, and after hesitating for a moment, he still said to Gandalf: "Gandalf, thank you for saving Stormcastle at a critical moment again. ”

"I just can't get used to Anubir being so arrogant, you must know that a few decades ago he was just a small ice demon, and he didn't have any ostentatious capital in front of me, and now he dares to lead a large army to attack Storm Castle!"

"Do you know this Ice Demon General?"

Duke asked in surprise, he hadn't thought much of it when he heard Gandalf call out the name of the Ice Demon General, and now judging from his tone, Gandalf seemed to have known this Ice Demon General for a long time.

"Didn't I tell you, in order to avoid the pursuit of the Holy See, the Dark Witch Society always chooses some inaccessible places to hide, and places like the Valley of Monsters are naturally no exception. I was here decades ago, but at that time the Ice Demon had not yet given birth to a general, but I found that one of the Ice Demons was very special and had a good chance of growing into a future Ice Demon General. ”

"This ice demon is Anubir?"

Gandalf nodded when he heard Duke's rhetorical question, and replied, "That's right, it's him." ”

"However, at that time, he also felt the magical power in me, so he did not pose any threat to me when I was still a high-level mage, but acquiesced in my right to act on the periphery of the Monster Valley. Even one day, he took the initiative to talk to me, and that's when I learned his name. ”

"Can the Ice Demon still talk to you?"

It was Duke's turn to be amazed, for he had seen so many ice demons, and he had never heard them speak human language, but instead communicated in their own language. So Duke subconsciously thinks that the Ice Demon doesn't know human language, let alone talk to humans. And in the city history records of Storm Castle, there has never been a record of ice demons talking to humans.

"Of course they can speak, have you forgotten that they themselves are transformed into humans?"

"But I was surprised to suddenly run into a talking ice demon at that time, so I said a few more words to him. At that time he asked me about magic, but I didn't answer him. Because even if the Dark Witch Society is an enemy of the Holy See, it definitely has nothing in common with the Ice Demon, and talking to him is more of a curiosity about the Ice Demon. ”

"Later, I went to the Fallen Elf Tribe, met the previous Elf King of the Moon-Chasing Royal Clan, and obtained the inheritance of ancient elven magic from him, and finally broke through to become the Great Magus. Unexpectedly, decades later, I saw the Ice Demon named Anubil again, and he had evolved into the Ice Demon General. ”

Hearing Gandalf tell such a history, Duke was a little surprised, he didn't expect that there was such a relationship between him and the Ice Demon.

"By the way, Gandalf, how did this pearl of the ocean end up with you, and you, as an archmage, shouldn't you steal too?"

Duke teased Gandalf at this time, because this pearl of the ocean had been kept in his study since Duke had taken it back from Fasqi. In fact, he also showed it to Gandalf at the beginning, and even had the idea of giving it to Gandalf, after all, this thing has no effect on himself, and should be left to magicians who can play its real role.

It's just that Gandalf was a bit of a pretentious person at the time, and he couldn't do anything to take the Pearl of the Ocean from Duke. Another point is that after all, this is the treasure of the Wave Tribe, and it is not good to be given away so quickly by someone who has just been dedicated to him to show his allegiance, so Duke didn't care about it after he put it in the study.

After all, compared to magic items, Duke's pursuit has always been on technology, and if Fasqi had given him an engine, it is estimated that Duke would have been able to sleep with that thing.

As a result, I didn't expect Gandalf to appear at this time with this pearl of the ocean, obviously without his consent. You must understand that although Duke is not very interested in this thing, he knows that this thing is very valuable, but it is hidden in a secret place in the study, which can be found by Gandalf, and it seems that this old guy has already set his sights on it.

What Duke didn't expect was that when he finished saying this, Gandalf instantly turned red, and said to Duke with an angry face: "What is stealing? Can the Archmage use the word stealing? I only took out the Pearl of the Ocean from your study because of the needs of Storm Castle!"

Seeing Gandalf's excited appearance, Duke was not worried that he would have any heart disease and high blood pressure, but was afraid that he would not be able to control himself for a while, so he would throw a magic directly, and Duke would be finished.

So at this time, Duke could only soothe and say: "That's right, how can the matter of the archmage be described as stealing, it should be called take, I used the wrong word! But Gandalf, how do you know the pearl of the ocean in my study?"

"The Pearl of the Ocean, a magic weapon containing magical energy, is too easy to be sensed by a magician, if it is not put in a shielding box, even a magician close to Storm Castle can feel the magic emitted by the Pearl of the Ocean, do you say that it is difficult for me to find it?"

"It's not difficult, of course it's not difficult!" Duke also said obediently at this time, no matter what, this time it was Gandalf who relied on the Pearl of the Ocean to scare off the ice demon, and this credit cannot be overstated.

"By the way, Gandalf, did you really plan to use the forbidden spell before?"

Duke asked curiously again at this time, to be honest, he had always been in a yearning and curious state of mind about this so-called forbidden spell. After all, this is the ultimate weapon in this world, just like the nuclear weapons of modern society, and he wants to see who is stronger between the ultimate power of magic and the ultimate power of technology.

In the face of Duke's inquiry, Gandalf had a strange smile on his face at this time.

"Little guy, do you think that the forbidden spell can really be released just by talking, even if there is a pearl of the ocean, it is not a simple matter to release the forbidden curse. ”

"And once the forbidden spell is released, almost half of the continent will know, do you think the Holy See will ignore the appearance of a magician who can release the forbidden spell in Storm Castle? Even the magic that Hera released with me before may have been detected by the Holy See, so you better think of an excuse to cover it up." ”
