For the royal capital of Vathis, having a powerful mage neighbor was doomed to no peace, especially on the eve of the day of the certification. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 ｉｎｆｏ

A quarter of an hour ago, a huge explosion had awakened the inhabitants of the imperial capital from their slumber, and in the moonlight they could clearly see that the former mage tower, which had always been made of gold and had always been as bright as new, was now billowing with smoke, mottled rust marks crawling all over the tower, and there was no trace of luxury.

The Golden Tower, which had been eroded by dozens of wind and rain without a trace of bleakness, was as if it had been abandoned at this moment, and a terrifying thought lingered in their minds, the legendary mage Keynes used a power that was banned by the Mage Guild and can be corrupted by time, the legendary forbidden curse Skeleton Emperor.

Inside the Golden Tower, Keynes stood on top of the ruins of the meeting room, all kinds of unnamed bones scattered all over the ground, and the test bench that broke in half smashed the precious table to pieces, and it seemed that the floor of the previous laboratory had not resisted the corrosion and collapsed.

Under the shabby robes, you can faintly see a left arm with only white bones emitting a miserable white fluorescence, at the end of the arm and above the neck, there is only the right fleshy head, through the hole in the left eye, you can even see the constantly wriggling brain, although there are no eyeballs, the empty eye sockets are still staring ahead.

Even though most of his body was shriveled to the point that he could cover his bones and fall to the ground and couldn't move, the student who should have been afraid of him still looked at him with a penetrating smile, faintly exuding terrifying fluctuations that made people fearful.

"You...... Who is it!" Keynes cautiously asked, this student who had sold his life for thirty Quintalos, suddenly burst out with a power that surprised even himself as a legendary mage, and even blocked the forbidden spell that he cast with all his might, and he had already controlled the growth of his power for the sake of experiments, so the power that suddenly appeared here could only come from someone else.

"Worthy of being a disciple of a legendary mage, the taste of this brainy cocktail is truly intoxicating. No one opened their mouths, but there was a voice in the body of the apprentice, echoing in Keynes's mind, whether it was a heart-to-heart conversation or a message in words, all revealing that the owner of the voice was the brain-sucking, notorious mind-snatcher!

"I've come thousands of miles to anger a legendary mage, I, admire your courage!" Keynes, who recognized the identity of the other party, shouted and cursed, and under the blessing of the forbidden spell, the corrosive spiritual impact eroded along the communication route, and before the other party disconnected, he seemed to hear a slightly painful wail.

"Restraint, please, Lord Cairns, we, purpose, seek...... Cooperation, yes, cooperation. It didn't take long for a new voice to appear in his mind, it seemed that it rarely communicated with humans, and the owner of the voice was very unfamiliar with this language, and thought for a long time before expressing the word "cooperation".

Keynes snorted coldly, he had no interest in the topic, no matter how much he disliked Anthony's gang, he was still a legendary mage of mankind, and it was this racial concept that made him still supported by many people despite his undead experiments.

Therefore, in the face of the mind snatcher who gnawed at the human brain, Keynes made the choice that a qualified human legendary mage should have from the beginning.

"About Thort Marr!" saw that Keynes began to accumulate his magic, and the voice in his head became eager, and he did not dare to tell his purpose without the slightest hesitation.

"Thort Marr, hmph, why do you think that a legendary mage would choose to cooperate with you!" Keynes retracted his magic and his face was serious, but he didn't realize that the moment he put away his magic for Thoth's sake, he completely lost his legendary qualifications.

"Because he has in him what we all want. Although Keynes's language was still full of disgust, the psychic mind snatchers were keenly aware of the looseness in his words.

"Tell me about it. Keynes frowned, only a few people knew about his plan to seize Thoth's body, but when he saw the student lying in front of him, he was relieved, and the little means he put in the student's mind couldn't stop this group of guys who were good at digging up news from their souls.

"Lord Keynes, when I was a child, I had the privilege of seeing you in our city of hellfire, and I think it was more than a hundred years ago. The voice, which had quickly become familiar with human vocabulary, said something that was intriguing.

Keynes's brows furrowed even tighter, the rescue mission that allowed the twelve legendary mages to act together was also his own battle for fame, but in the blink of an eye, the legends of that generation were left with only themselves, and his own body was about to come to an end.

"At first, we were very curious about why Your Excellency was able to break through the limit of human lifespan, tsk, the body of a young legendary mage is perfect for reincarnation. Seeing that Keynes was deep in thought, the voice began to tempt, "Even if Your Excellency has all the means, there is no way to guarantee that the occupation of the body will be successful, and our unique spiritual appearance and soul means can make this rebirth foolproof!"

"What do you want?" After thinking for a long time, Keynes finally spoke, he knew that these cunning guys must have great intentions to help him, and even affect the whole world pattern, and the greater concession of interests will inevitably leave a handle, no matter what he is for, he will not be able to rashly agree.

"We don't need to harm the interests of humanity, we just want the soul of the body. As if seeing his entanglement, the voice looked like it was thinking about him, "Just a soul that is useless to Your Excellency can be exchanged for our full help, and this deal is worth it." ”

"Soul, that's a good price, but how do you prove to be able to help me?" Anthony asked, the price they offered was impressive, so Keynes was going to take a risk, knowing what conspiracy was behind it.

"For example, if he can block space, you don't know yet, but we paid a lot of money to try it out. The voice sounded much more relaxed, as if it had already taken him to account, "How about this news? In case you use spatial transfer and find that the other party has not moved, I think the expression on your face at that time must be wonderful." ”

Hearing the other party say that Toth could isolate the power of space, Keynes knew that he could no longer refuse to cooperate with the other party, and the other party had already indicated that they were the mysterious forces that attacked the third test site a few days ago.

But the incessant voice disgusted him, and squeezed the last shred of the forbidden spell's strength out, and all of it slammed into the place where the sound originated, and the noisy sound came to an abrupt end.

"Keynes, despite this cooperation, you killed two of my compatriots. A slightly old consciousness came to his mind, and after determining the plan of action, he also dispelled his last concerns, "The next time we meet, we will never die." ”

"Don't die!" Keynes pulled off his tarnished left arm and walked towards the poor apprentice.

In the underground city of the southern volcano, a group of Mind Flayer Demons were quietly absorbing the spiritual energy, apparently they had just joined forces to cast some kind of spiritual suggestion spell.

"Legendary mage, huh!" a Mind Flayer with six tentacles looked slightly mockingly to the northeast.

The guardian eye of the Mage Guild, Dill looked at Anthony in shock, unable to connect the harmless Toth with this somewhat vicious plan, opened his mouth several times, and finally said, "You guys...... It's really ......."

"Let's not mention that kid even got into a hole with us, now there are only six of us, and if we have to send four to the border, we will suffer when we are certified!" said the muscular Soga.

Everyone looked at Soga helplessly, "Who said there were only six of us?"

Toth in the inn looked out at the glow of the night piercing the east, changed into a new robe, and prepared for a few magical hours of certification. The moment he took off his old robes, a huge inscription appeared on his bare skin, disappearing before he could see it.
