The opening ceremony of the Warlock Festival is less than a fifth complete, and then the award of awards to warlocks over the age of 40 begins. The people who are basically qualified to win the award are all master-level figures. After the individual awards were awarded, the honors were awarded according to the contributions of the major forces.

"First place, Warlock Guild. ”

"2nd Place, College Union. ”

"Third place, Northland Tower. ”

"Fourth place, Shucheng Research Institute. ”

“......”

There are a total of ten places, which is the most intuitive manifestation of the strength of each warlock, among which the Warlock Guild is like the previous dozens of sessions, and it has always been the strongest warlock organization in the Silver Snow Domain. The academy does not lose too many guilds, and even above the guilds in terms of scale. The Academy Alliance is not a simple warlock institution, but also includes martial arts colleges, military academies, business schools, etc., although the academy of art is the largest investment, but it is mainly based on education, and the research atmosphere is not as good as that of the guild, so there are relatively few cutting-edge talents.

The Northland Tower is a very low-key warlock organization, and the recruitment criteria for members are very strict, even to the point of being harsh, only recruiting cutting-edge people and geniuses, because the tower's acceptance conditions are too high, which discourages countless warlocks who are willing to take refuge, so the number is not very large. Despite such a concentration of elites, the tower is still a very strong force, with a very strong strength.

The Academy of Magic City is also a Warlock Institution, but unlike other Warlock Institutions, the Academy of Magic City is limited to the City of Magic. Because of the unique conditions of the city, the warlocks in the domain hope to come to the city for further study, which will lead to the opening of this research institute. Kaneki is the lord of Shucheng and the founder of the Shucheng Research Institute.

When the honor methods of the major forces are completed, it will be the turn of the major family forces next.

Among them, the Medicine City Pharmacist ranks first, the Snow City Fu Family ranks second, the Baicheng Mu Family ranks third, in addition to the Nalan family in various places, there are also some ranked up, the Medicine Family and the Fu Family are both powerful families, although the Mu family is in decline, far less than in its heyday, but the heritage still exists, there are a few masters in the family as the pillars, and the strength and potential of the middle and lower class members are also not bad.

When the family rankings and honors are over, it is finally the turn of the studio and the private institute.

"First place, Yunyue Studio, the person in charge is Baicheng Qin Yue!"

This unfamiliar studio directly became the first place, Yunyue Studio sold four formulas, including Focus Elixir and Brave Elixir, to the four major forces, and at the same time sold the magic potion and the epoch-making slave brand, and provided the publication of "Mu Ying'er Notes", these achievements are all shocking and enviable.

When Qin Yue registered the studio, she had already applied for the studio's information to be kept confidential.

Now except for a few insiders, no one knows the status of the members of Yunyue Studio, even Li Qinglian, who presented the award on stage, probably couldn't imagine that there were only three people in this Yunyue Studio that had achieved proud achievements.

Mu Yun and Mu Ying'er have already been exposed, and now Qin Yue has also been exposed.

Because of the studio's brilliant achievements and becoming the best spell studio of the year, the Magic Alliance decided to give a reward of 3,000 gold. Mu Yun got a bonus of 1,000 gold coins, Mu Ying'er got a bonus of 3,000 gold coins, and several people participated in a warlock's festival, and they were able to bring back a huge fortune of 7,000 gold coins empty-handed. Mu Yun had to sigh that the Shumeng was really wealthy, and every time he made money with potions or spells, he was exploited by the Shumeng.

The opening ceremony, which took 3 hours and was in full swing, was finally coming to an end.

The major forces in each city have reaped the honor they deserve.

Kaneki personally took the stage and announced: "At the end of the award ceremony, Shudao has developed rapidly in the past year, and gratifying results have been achieved in various fields, and I hope to continue to accelerate the pace in the new year, and the pursuit of knowledge and collation will never end." Now, I announce the official opening of the 109th Warlock Festival!"

The crowd cheered and boiled.

This annual warlock festival kicked off, and for the next ten days, the magic city will be equivalent to a carnival venue for warlocks. Warlocks from all over the city will gather in the city to share their knowledge, discuss unsolvable problems, and all kinds of exciting and interesting activities will emerge in an endless stream, as long as they are willing to participate, everyone will get the ideal harvest.

Jin Mu continued after everyone was quiet: "Compared to the information that everyone has already obtained, in addition to the ordinary exchange of techniques, there is also a very important thing in this time, that is, the study of an ancient secret realm. ”

Everyone held their breath at the same time.

What a secret realm means, everyone will not be unaware, everyone wants to enter the secret realm, because the secret realm is synonymous with endless treasures.

Kaneki raised his hand.

The effect on the enchantment membrane was gone, and when it reappeared a few seconds later, it had switched to a large valley.

It's a bird's-eye view, and I don't know how it was taken, but from the topography, five huge peaks stand majestically. Each of the peaks is very majestic, the top is covered with snow and ice, and the lower part is covered with lush trees, and the height is about three or four thousand meters.

The vicinity of the five peaks is generally dominated by lush forests, stretching for hundreds of miles without reaching the end, like a primeval forest. Five mountain ranges appeared suddenly, and it seemed very sudden. In the center of the five peaks, the clouds and mist are thick, like a ball of cotton stuffed in it, which seems to be scattered all year round, and it is obviously not naturally formed.

Click.

The image disappears from the screen.

Jin Mu's voice sounded: "What everyone saw just now is the exterior of the secret realm, and in the center of the huge mountain peak, it has been determined that there is an ancient secret realm. Because of the confidentiality of the relationship, I will not disclose the specific location of the place for the time being, which I hope you will include. In order to occupy the secret realm as soon as possible, the lord decided to decipher all the remaining parts to be decrypted at the Warlock Festival, so that it can be mined as soon as possible!"

This secret realm has been sealed by the lord's power, so it has been regarded as a treasure by the Great Lord of the Silver Snow Domain.

The significance of a secret realm is too great.

This will inevitably cause the major family forces to peep, and at the same time, it will also cause other hidden forces, and even extraterritorial forces to fight. Before the secret of the secret realm is solved, the lord does not have full control of the secret realm, so he will not easily expose the information of the secret realm, so as not to be preempted by others.

Mu Yun is still echoing the secret scene just now, from the perspective of the external environment, the valley is indeed a closed space suitable for creating a secret realm, and the five peaks are very suitable for more than just evaporation, if the secret realm is built inside, then it should be very stable.

Kaneki continued: "As for the situation outside the secret realm, everyone has already seen it, although it has been determined that the secret realm exists, now the question is how to open the secret realm. ”

Speaking of which.

The barrier film suddenly changed, revealing a huge line map, and if you look closely, you will find that the line map is the environment of the secret scene just now, but now it has become more abstract. Everyone was surprised to find that if they looked closely, the secret realm as a whole was a huge five-pointed star, showing a magic circle pattern.

Seeing this, Mu Yun suddenly sat up straight.

This kind of spell style has never even been seen by him, this secret realm builder is 100% an alien race, and it is an alien race with considerable magical civilization ability.

Jin Mu explained: "This is the result of the lord sending warlocks near the secret realm, groping for several years to complete, from a structural point of view, the secret realm selects the five elements of energy, five huge peaks, respectively, represents the five elements of energy, metal, wood, water, fire, and earth, maintaining the stability of the secret realm. At the same time, it can be concluded that each of the five peaks has an entrance, from which one can enter and exit the inner part of the secret realm. ”

Click.

The enchantment membrane scene changed again, and now it was in a cave.

"This is a place that has been explored and excavated a lot and finally locked on, and you look closely at this rock wall. "Everyone's eyes are focused on a black stone wall, on which is a huge disk, the diameter of the disk is about 15 meters, the whole is engraved on the black stone wall, and a large number of complex and esoteric patterns are engraved on it, "According to the inspection, each mountain peak has a similar civilization mark, and the position is just at the tip of the five-element structure circle. ”

Click!

The enchantment membrane fluctuated a few times, and the giant disc array was enlarged separately, and the symbols on it were completely presented in front of everyone, these were all unheard of spell symbols, and the style of the circular magic circle was also very weird, which was very different from the human civilization.

"We've investigated and guessed that these things are the gateway to the secret realm, but so far, we haven't found a way to open it. It's a triggered circle that requires a proper key and a spell to open it. ”

"One of the main tasks of this Warlock Festival is to unlock the secrets of the secret realm. ”

The crowd was thoughtful.

Can such a complicated and strange secret realm passage really be easily opened?

Someone couldn't help but ask, "Since you need a key and a spell to open the secret realm, has the key been found?"

Kaneki recited another incantation, and the enchantment membrane changed again, and three stones of different colors appeared on it, each crystal clear, like the finest gem in the world, and the runes on it were densely packed, containing profound and profound information.

Kaneki said, "This is the key to entering the secret realm. ”

"Why are there three pieces, aren't there five mountains?"

Jin Mu replied: "I don't know if this secret realm was built thousands or even thousands of years ago, the key has been lost on the mainland, and these three pieces were also collected by the lord with great manpower and material resources. ”

Someone immediately asked, "So where are the other two keys now?"

"It's hard to say, any key can open the entrance to the secret realm, and it is impossible for the leader to be completely secret in recent years, so we suspect that there are already other forces and even big families and lords of other domains who have obtained the key. Jin Mu said with a stern expression, "Therefore, we must rush ahead of them and study a way to enter the secret realm. ”
