Chapter 260: The Arbiter of Twins
readx;
Outside the window, the brilliance of magic is still dazzling, creating a mesmerizing scenery. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ο½ο½ο½Uο½Eγ info But Farion, who was standing on the balcony, frowned, a round and delicate face was tense at the moment, and even the bright red lips were pursed together at the moment, not showing the charm of Pingli at all.
It would be impossible to say that Farian was not nervous at all at this moment, after all, she was the youngest of the twelve star mages, although with the help of her position, Farian had considerable power, but she also knew very well in her heart that power alone could not ensure that she could be safe.
Thinking of this, Farian couldn't help but bow his head and look at the white robe on his body, Farian will never forget how much time and energy she spent to be able to wear this robe. Back then, she had already been tested by the Archmage at the age of twenty-five, but until now, she was over thirty years old, and the most youthful and beautiful years of her life were completely devoted to her goal, and in order to achieve this status, she did everything she could, not only for herself, but also for their people...... Farian clenched her fists, of course she knew how important this trial meeting was to herself, she had spent so much time and energy, and all this that she had managed to get in her youth was very likely to be completely ended because of this trial meeting. And Falian has long been preparing for this, she knows that with her identity and qualifications, the Twelve Star Mage Council will not easily attack her, and if they want to deprive themselves of their qualifications and punish themselves, they need a lot of evidence and reasons. And the only thing I can target is to start from this aspect. In fact, Falian was not worried, after all, she was also considered to have a solid foundation in the City of Thousand Laws, and if the twelve-star mage made any moves, she would soon know. But this time the situation was completely different, and after the Twelve Star Mage Council put her under house arrest, they did not immediately launch an investigation as Farian thought. On the contrary, Farion also received the news that surprised her - that is, the leader of the Knights of the Last Days, Julien, would come to the City of a Thousand Laws to complain against him.
And Farion quickly guessed that this time the twelve-star mage did not seem to intend to attack him through internal means, but external means. Although Farian is the youngest among the twelve-star mages, being able to sit in this position is also somewhat clear about the relationship between the Mage Association and the Knights of the End.
However, unlike other archmages, Farian didn't think that the relationship between the Knights of the End and the Mage Guild would be very close, and her reason was very practical and simple, after all, the Knight of the End had disappeared for so many years, and if it reappeared at this moment, I don't know what kind of impression it would have on the Mage Association. Indeed, in the historical records, it assisted the Mage Association as an ally, but in the thirty years east of the river and thirty years in the west of the river, the Knights of the Last Yan had not appeared on the mainland for more than seventy years, and they had not had any contact with the Mage Association during this period, so she still had some doubts about the attitude of the Knights of the End of the World at the moment.
In fact, after learning about this, Farion also privately sent someone to contact the other archmages to try to find out the other party's attitude. As a result, in the information she gathered, she found such a strange tendency -- the older the mages, the more favorable they were to the Knights of the End, and most of them were characters who had existed since the last appearance of the Knights of the End. Those who joined the Mage Guild after the Knights of the End disappeared were somewhat ambiguous about the Knights of the End, and it was clear that they might share the same concerns, or perhaps have other ideas.
But in any case, this news still made Farry feel at ease, no matter what, the Knights of the Final Yan are still outsiders, although their own things this time are a bit out of line, but in any case, they are also members of the Mage Association, let an outsider do this kind of thing, after all, it still has a bad impact, and the mage's favorite thing is face, if it really reaches the point of irretrievability in the end, then Falian has decided to spread this matter, so that the mages of the entire Thousand Laws City know that the dignified Twelve-Star Mage Council is actually led by an outsider, if this is used as a threat, then those old antiques will also reconsiderγ
Thinking of this, Falian's heart was already half at ease, but it was not completely relaxed, because there was one more thing that she still didn't have a clue about.
That is the "sanction of the twin scales".
Farian was well aware that the previous operation against the Knights of the Last had failed because of this strange magic. She had also investigated the information about this spell since then, but to Falian's surprise, the information about this spell in the City of a Thousand Spells was extremely scarce, although with her archmage's authority, there was almost nothing that could not be investigated, but after spending so long, she still only found that this spell belonged to two extremely powerful mages who had a very long connection with the Mage Guild.
As for who these two mages are and what kind of relationship they have with the Mage Association, the information is a bit vague. However, through this incident, Farian also discovered an unexpected trouble, that is, it means that Yulian is likely to be following these two mages by his side. At that point, things may become very difficult to deal with.
After all, although the Mage Guild values ability, it also ranks seniority. Although in terms of her ability to handle affairs, Farian is definitely at the top, but in front of other archmages, she is still only able to make suggestions, and unless it is another ten years, she has not yet been qualified to be truly equal to other archmages.
And at the moment, the only trouble for Farian is that these two mysterious people with unknown x number, if the other party really has a long-term relationship with the Mage Association, then it is very likely that they will put pressure on the Twelve Star Mage Council according to their identities. But on the other hand, reason told Farion that this was unlikely, after all, according to the records, the users of this spell were all hundreds of years ago, and the mage could not live until he was in his early 100s, just like the current president of the council, Noah, is already one hundred and one years old, and he will only live for another ten years at most. And the owners of those two spells are probably dead a long time ago, although it is not a possible surname that has not been passed on to future generations, but after all, it is not me, how much influence can it have?
It is precisely because of this that Farian has made the decision to send someone to hinder the Wyvern's pick-up today, hoping to see for herself how the two mages are going to solve this problem. At least...... Maybe you can see some clues from this.
Just as Farion thought of this, she suddenly felt a light in her eyes, and then she saw that two pillars of light, one black and one white, suddenly appeared, heading straight into the clouds.
What is that?
Falian was startled in her heart, but before she could come back to her senses, suddenly, a loud dragon roar rose from the ground, enveloping the entire city of a thousand laws.
βββββοΌοΌβ
The huge dragon roar was like thunder, and even the ground was shaken, and even Falian, who was standing on the high mage tower, couldn't help but tilt his body, but the current Falian obviously didn't care about this little thing, as if she had some premonition, she raised her head in horror and looked at the mountain peak to the west of the City of Thousand Laws.
And right there, at this moment, the highest peak of the western mountain range began to make a move -- it suddenly began to sway from side to side, and then, the roar became louder again, and then, a pair of pitch-black wings suddenly appeared from the top of the mountain, and then the peak actually flew like this!
"What's that?"
"Oh my God, what the hell is going on?!What's going on?!"
The mages in the City of Thousand Laws naturally saw this scene, and they were also panicked, not knowing how to face the situation in front of them.
And at this moment, that "mountain" had already flown above their heads.
In fact, it was not a mountain peak, but a huge black dragon, at this moment it was flapping its wings, slowly flying towards the place where the two pillars of light burst out, no, the so-called slow, just in terms of visual effect, in fact, the speed of this giant dragon is extremely fast, it just flapped its wings twice, it has already passed through the city of a thousand laws, and with the movement of this dragon, countless gravel also fell from both sides of its body, smashing on the protective barrier of the city of a thousand laws. But at this moment, no one cared about such a trivial matter anymore, and the mages of the entire Thousand Laws City, whether they were those high-level mages or apprentices, were all curled up in that faint at this moment, staring in horror at the black shadow that shrouded their heads.
And at this moment, one of Falian's hearts has completely sunk.
Of course, she knew the origin of this dragon, as early as the beginning, when the city of a thousand laws was established, this dragon had already lived here, I don't know why, it has been sleeping here, and at the same time responsible for guarding the city of a thousand laws. And the mountain range to the west is where it lives. It's just that since the Mage Association has never encountered any crisis, this black dragon has always been sleeping, and over time, it has turned into a part of the mountain. In fact, many mages who have lived here all their lives have not necessarily seen it.
But now, there it is.
Why did it happen? Why is it today?
Farian didn't know, she very much hoped that this black dragon was aware that the city of a thousand laws was threatened, so she took the initiative to wake up and come to destroy the enemy. But she knew very well that even she could not convince herself of this reason.
Then Fallon saw it.
The dragon flew to the spot where the pillar of light had been erected, then grabbed the mountain wall with all its might, and then lowered its head.
At this moment, Falian's face was already pale.
At this moment, a knock on the door sounded from behind her.
"Archmage Pharian, the Governor of the Council asks you to be ready to greet your guests at once while attending the upcoming Judgment. β
Ginger is really old and spicy.
At this moment, Faryan already had a deep sense of powerlessness.
"I really didn't expect that I would be awakened one day. β
The thunderous sound sounded in everyone's ears, and even their ears were a little numb, but at this moment, no one spoke, they just stared blankly at the dragon standing in front of them, as tall as a mountain peak.
Although this "dragon stopping field" was originally for stopping dragons, it was only a dragon after all, and at this moment, what appeared in front of them was a real dragon, just looking at the other party's huge body, they knew that the dragon was well deserved. At this moment, the black dragon lowered its head, its bright red eyes staring at the two figures in front of it, which were almost smaller than ants for its size.
"Miss Messiah, Miss Semia, long time no see. β
Saying this, the black dragon paused slightly, and then, its eyes rolled to look behind the two of them, and then narrowed into a thin line, and looked carefully for a moment.
"This is ............ I'm really surprised, Mr. Yuren, I didn't expect you to change so much. β
"Time is a pig-killing knife, and I can't help it. β
Pressing the shoulders of the two girls, a wry smile appeared on Yulian's face.
"Frankly, I'm a little embarrassed that I didn't intend to trouble you, Miss Nalexia. β
"You're welcome, you'll always be my best friends. β
The black dragon shook his head slightly, but with a single movement, he immediately set off a wind pressure.
"So, what exactly do you want me to do?"
Hearing this, the twin sisters smiled at each other, then raised their heads and looked at the black dragon -- I have to say, even if they were friends, the height difference between them was too obvious.
"Very simple, very easy. β
"We're going to take Dad into the City of a Thousand Laws. β
"I see. β
Hearing this, the black dragon smiled, and instead of asking the reason, it directly lowered its head.
"Come on, then, my dear friend...... and guests. β
"Then you're welcome. β
You Lian didn't squirm, he reluctantly turned around, shrugged his shoulders at the stunned reception mage, and then jumped onto the dragon's head, which was several meters high, with an arrow step. The twin sisters chuckled as they reached out, flew high into the air with the help of Wind Wings, and sat down on top of the giant dragon's head, while they reached out their little hands and stroked each other's heads.
However, this little stroke had almost no effect on the dragon, but even so, the black dragon closed its eyes and seemed to really enjoy the other person's touch.
Then, it looked up, and there was another dragon roar.
It was not a very long distance to cross the Dragon Roar Mountain Range and enter the City of a Thousand Laws, but in front of this giant dragon, the distance was even smaller. It almost just turned, then flapped its wings only twice, and then came to the sky above the City of a Thousand Laws once more.
However, this little time still gave the mages a good opportunity to prepare, and soon, a large open space was vacated, and the protective shield that had been activated disappeared again, and then, the black dragon slowly descended and landed on the ground. Although its movements were already considered very light, it still shook the entire Thousand Laws City again, and even a few houses completely collapsed and turned into ruins.
And at this moment, the city of a thousand laws is quiet.
As a city of mages, the city of a thousand laws is not noisy in the first place, because mages need a good environment to study and study. However, this time was different, the whole city was unusually quiet, not even a soft sound could be heard, and the sound of the collapsed houses when the black dragon landed before seemed to be the only movement in the city at this moment, but it quickly disappeared into the air. At this moment, the city seems to be empty.
However, this is just an exaggerated metaphor, in fact, the surrounding area has already been full of mages, among them there are great mages, high-level mages, middle-level mages, low-level mages and even apprentices of the first and second rings, at this moment, they are either standing on the street, or standing outside the mage tower, or floating in the air, quietly watching this scene.
It was not just because the pitch-black dragon had awakened that these mages could be so quiet, but because at this moment, not far in front of the pitch-black dragon, there were twelve people wearing gold-trimmed white robes, who were none other than the supreme beings in the city, the Twelve-Star Archmage.
The pitch-black dragon lowered its head once more, and Yuren and the twin sisters jumped off its head and landed gently on the ground. At this moment, everyone saw that the black dragon was suddenly shrouded in a dark fog, and then disappeared -- and some people with good eyes noticed that at some point, there was a quiet black cat beside the sisters.
And at this moment, the twelve-star archmages have also slowly come up.
"On behalf of the Mage Guild, the City of a Thousand Laws, I welcome you, Honorable Master of the Knight of the Last Days, Mr. Yuren. β
Noah, who was the leader, gave a mage salute to Yulian, and then, a faint smile appeared on his thin old face.
"It's a great honor to be able to have the Twelve Star Archmage in person. β
And this time, in the face of the mage's greeting, You Lian did not put on the same leisurely appearance as before, on the contrary, he also stretched out his right hand and pressed it on his chest, and then bowed slightly, and made a knight's etiquette to the other party.
Noticing this scene, Farian was a little puzzled, because she realized that Speaker Noah's greeting was only for Yuren alone, and did not include the two girls behind him, could it be that she was mistaken?
Thinking of this, Farion looked at Messiah and Semia carefully again, and even she did not believe that these two girls could be powerful mages...... Could it be that there is another string machine?
However, before Farian could figure out what to do, Yulian suddenly took a step back and stepped out of the way, and then the two sisters walked hand in hand with a soft and innocent smile.
At this moment, Noah's complexion changed slightly, and then, among the twelve star archmages, seven mages came out and came to the two girls---then, they bent down deeply.
"The arbiters of the twins, Teacher Messiah, Teacher Semiya - welcome back. β
