Chapter 154: Stargazers?
The human camp outside the city of Arcas, inside the tent of the Celtic general......
He looked at everyone present, all of whom were the leading missions in the city of Arcas, the president of the Wizards' Guild and several archmages, the bishops and priests of the cathedral, and even the captains of some of the city's large adventurer teams. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
Celt let out a sigh of relief, he tried to find a bunch of cigarettes, but suddenly remembered that smoking was not allowed in the barracks. He hadn't slept all night, and his spirit was almost at its limit.
"Ahem...... All of you are famous people from the city of Arcas, so you must have guessed what we are going to discuss next. That's right, about that strange person last night. "Almost everyone present at last night's battle had seen the mysterious figure.
Since the appearance of that person, the whole battlefield has suddenly changed its goal, and from a certain point of view, maybe Celt should be grateful to that person, his appearance made the barbarians a little jealous, and finally had to choose to retreat.
"Who is that man, what does he want to do? Have you ever heard of this kind of person? Celtic threw out a series of questions, but everyone wanted to know them, and when he saw that no one answered, he knew that it was useless, and finally had to throw the questions to the archmages of the Wizards' Guild again.
The old mage looked around and saw that all eyes were on him.
"I've never seen a figure like this, but judging by his size, he should be human. ”
"But he doesn't have a face, a face...... And the air-like wings behind him. As soon as he said a word, he was interrupted by a man dressed as a soldier on the side.
Everyone in the Wizards' Guild looked at him at the same time.
"Okay...... I don't speak, I don't interject. The man waved his hand.
The old mage turned around, picked up the tea he had at hand, took a sip, and continued. "I thought he was human, but until I noticed his face, he couldn't see a human face under his hood, plus he had the ability to absorb souls. Saying this, he looked at the procession of the cathedral, and Yennefer nodded in agreement.
"I suspect he may be from the dark Ones, and not the dark Ones in general. The old mage said.
"What do you mean by not the dark forces in general?" Celt couldn't understand what it meant, and neither did the others present.
The old mage looked at everyone, then at Ye Naifa, and found that the other party's expression was not as surprised as the others. I secretly said in my heart: Does this girl know what I'm going to say? No way, she can't have that kind of experience at such a young age, she should just be pretending, huh. That's it, the leader of the cathedral certainly can't behave like an apprentice.
"We all know that there are many dark mages and dark aliens in this world, many of them act independently, but occasionally some will be organized together, the most active in recent years is the 'Witch Order', and this year there is also an organization called 'Black Forest' that is also growing. The old mage stood up suddenly, and the people around him stopped talking, listening intently to his explanation.
"They are all gathering power in their hands and want to form a stronger force......"
"Archmage, what do you want to say? Can you put it simply, the more I listen, the more confused I become. Someone in the crowd has already refuted.
"Quiet! Archmage is telling us what happened, be patient. ”
"You ......" The man wanted to refute again, but was stopped by the people around him, so he had to be quiet.
The Wizards' Guild is at odds with the adventurers, which is no secret in the city of Arcas, and Celtic has a headache for a long time. Arcas City is a border city, originally a fortress expansion formation, it has only grown in the last ten years, so there has been no city lord in this area, all of them are the center of power in this area, and Celt is not willing to share the power in his hands with others, so he needs to gather strength to integrate the forces in the city.
"Almost everyone knows that the highest organization of mages is Mithranda, but no one ever knows where they are, they seem to exist only in the deepening, but we all believe they exist. But let's not forget why Mislanda was founded...... According to the texts of the Wizards' Guild, the original Mislanda was founded to defend against a dark organization. ”
The old mage spoke slowly, but many people had already come up with the answer.
"The Stargazers haven't heard about them for decades, but they must still exist, we all know them. So I think that person last night may be someone from the Stargazer Organization, and when the dark magic reaches a certain ability, his appearance will change, and everything about him, don't you think it's very special when you think about his voice yesterday?" the old mage asked.
Not to mention special, the sound was so terrifying that it still reverberated in my ears when I think about it.
"Archmage, do you think that man yesterday was a stargazer, but they have all disappeared for decades, why did they suddenly appear at this time?" asked Celtic, and many wondered.
The old mage shook his head.
"I don't know about this, but if it's really a stargazer, we're in big trouble, and we must quickly contact the Imperial Magicians Association to report the news. After the old mage finished speaking, he noticed Ye Naifa's movements out of the corner of his eye.
The little girl also seemed surprised. Hmph, sure enough, she is still a little girl, and she has never seen anything in the world.
I saw Ye Naifa also stand up.
"I don't deny the Archmage's assumptions, but I have something I don't understand, and I need the Archmage to help me out. Her words also drew the attention of everyone present.
"Excuse me, Bishop. If you can answer something, our archmage will tell you. The magician on one side said.
Ye Naifa glanced at them, and instead of continuing to dwell on them, he asked the old mage.
"According to the archmage, the other party is a stargazer, so why did he kill anyone on the battlefield and leave after collecting his soul?"
"Stargazers behave strangely, and they haven't heard anything about them on the mainland for decades, and no one knows what they're going to do, or maybe want to do. This seemed to be the best explanation, and the people around them nodded their heads repeatedly.
"I don't think it matters who he is, who he is from a certain organization, the most important thing is that his last words 'no one can stop death' means that he is still waiting for death, and his purpose is to absorb souls, so I conclude that he will still appear in the next battle, because as long as someone dies in battle, there will be souls that he can absorb. "Yennefer's chin is raised, she is indeed a beautiful girl, but she is very sophisticated.
"Our reinforcements are almost there, and I have received word that Karl's Minutemen have entered the territory of Gypsyne...... As soon as they arrive, we can prepare for the next deployment. ”
