"Sanada-kun, I'm more worried about the castle. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 infoIs there any news over there?"As soon as the war ended, Tadao Kosaka found someone to call Takuya Sanada.

"General Qiyu, I haven't received any news. However, with the Abe family's great onmyoji, I believe it should be fine. Takuya Sanada replied.

"Well, but I'm more worried about their magician, who is said to have a kind of magician who can scatter beans like our onmyoji, so I have to guard against it. ”

"Yes, Your Excellency. I immediately sent someone back. ”

"And what about the portal? that's where we're founded, and we can't afford to make mistakes. ”

"The portal has a dark mage in person, and it echoes the castle, and the special task force has been transferred by the dark mage. If they want to sneak attack, I'm afraid it won't be so easy, right?" Sanada Taku was also puzzled, since he was worried, why did he run to the city to challenge?

"Don't forget, we're on two sides now. The other country knows our details, and there is no guarantee that they will not attack our portal. ”

"Hmph, the soldiers of that country are not vulnerable at all, and they are not of the same level as the soldiers who fought today. Sanada Taku said disdainfully.

"I can't stop them from having a lot of them, and we were lucky to win because we were preemptive before. You must remember that there is no room for negligence in our work for His Majesty the Emperor. ”

"Yes!" Takuya Sanada bowed his head.

"Sanada-kun, you and the cavalry will return first, and I will bring people back tonight. ”

"Yes!"

On this side, Tadao Kosaka was in a hurry to return, and on the other side, Cosimo was also in a hurry to move on. But years of experience in life and death told him that something was wrong with the forest in front of him.

According to the markings drawn on the map, they had reached their destination, but the smell was unsettling.

"This is the dark chain of magical shadowlands. Donna came up behind Cosimo at some point.

"The visual effects of everyone in the Shadowlands' area will be greatly reduced, and will be worse than at night. Be careful when you go in, we don't know what else awaits us. Donna continued.

"Shall we go around to the back and go in?" Cosimo suggested.

"No, we were already spotted when we stepped into the Shadowlands, and it looks like there's a tough battle to be fought. Donna looked at the mist in the forest, and a light blue ** magic spirit flashed faintly around her.

The crowd cautiously groped their way into the forest. As soon as they stepped into the forest, everyone's eyes were dark, and several warriors subconsciously raised their shields to protect the mages behind them. The mounts were tethered to the forest, and everyone was marching on foot, and the knight was not even as capable as an infantry in the forest.

It may be that the other party was overconfident and did not make a move at this perfect moment of sneak attack. Tom, the water magister, raised his right hand, and a dark blue ball of water appeared in his hand. This transparent sphere actually emitted a faint light under the injection of his mana, illuminating the range of ten meters around him.

"Marquis Donna, I have a few questions to ask. Cosimo turned back as he instructed his soldiers to move on.

Donna smiled slightly, "I know what you want to ask. This chain of magic is the magic of our continent, not the witchcraft used by the aliens. ”

"That'...... Why did some magicians take refuge in their camp?Magicians have a high status in various empires, can they get better fame and fortune by turning to other races?" The dragon knight can't stand betrayal the most, and Cosimo's question actually contains another thought.

Donna is also over half a hundred years old, how could she not hear what he meant: "Everyone has their own pursuits, maybe it is enough for us to concentrate on allegiance to the empire." But for some people, especially for magicians, what do you think they want most?" Donna quietly told Cosimo of her unwavering stance.

"Unlimited use of forbidden arts?" Cosimo replied.

"Well, that's one aspect too. Another aspect is that when people live to a certain age, what some people want most is to continue to live in this world. ”

Donna paused and continued, "Especially for magicians, after learning the supernatural ability of magic, some mages with unscrupulous intentions will want to continue to possess this superhuman ability. Although the lifespan of a magician is slightly longer than that of ordinary people, the time spent on the path of magic cultivation is hundreds of years. If you weren't born with a heterocyclion, it would be nice to have the title of a high-level magician at the end of your life. ”

"That's why there are now less than twenty Magisters out of hundreds of millions of people on the entire continent. It's not just because of talent, it's about age. If it were you, would you still want to be admired as a dragon knight in your old age?" Donna replied.

Cosimo was stunned, he had never thought about this question, perhaps because he was still in the prime of life, and he didn't have time to think about it. In the end, the dragon knighthood still made him shake his head, "Everyone has his own destiny, and I can't do such a thing as forcibly tampering with the mandate of heaven." ”

Donna said admiringly, "Your Excellency is truly worthy of my elite in Osland. But what you don't know is that human beings live longer than they are now. ”

Not only Cosimo, but Tom, who is also a magister, was also shocked when he heard this, the two of them spoke quietly, but he was also shocked when he focused on their conversation.

"That's right, the human race, the spirit of all things created by the Creator, has more than three times as much life!" Suddenly, a voice wafted from the forest, and all the soldiers immediately pointed their swords in the direction from which the voice came.

A black mist slowly floated up from the ground, as if someone had held it together. Suddenly, more black mist floated from all around, converging together. The mist kept spinning, getting faster and faster, until in the end it was impossible to see at all, like a humanoid cicada cocoon that was originally black.

After a while, the black mist slowly dissipated, and a figure appeared there. A man in a black robe emerged in the light of a water balloon.

"Who is Your Excellency?" a soldier stepped forward with his sword raised.

The black-robed mage let out a sneer: "Who am I? You step on my territory and ask me who I am? ”

"Be careful, this man's spells are above us. Donna held her wand in her hand and whispered a reminder to Cosimo.

"Don't be nervous, I just wanted to come and talk to you. With that, the black-robed mage actually sat on the ground in front of them.
