The situation was critical, the four magicians glanced at each other, and then a magician codenamed Bat stood up and said, "The entrance to the cave must be surrounded, and when all the magicians outside are caught, there will definitely be people from the temple who will come in to search."

"There's not much time left for us, do you have any good ideas?"

A magician, codenamed Mouse, said, "I have mastered a type of terrain detection magic, but it will take some time. ”

Maier and the remaining magicians said, "We'll help you watch the entrance." ”

Seeing this, the mouse did not hesitate, and immediately cast its magic.

At this time, almost all the magicians who came out of the cave were caught by the personnel of the temple, except for one of them, who did not know what special means were used, and fled.

I saw an old man appear next to the bishop of the temple, standing a little rickety, this old man was the fox, and it was the organizer of this magic fair.

As a magician, he took refuge in the temple and betrayed so many magicians, including even his former companions.

Among the magicians who were arrested, there were many who had a deep friendship with the old man, staring at the old man deadly, his eyes full of resentment and disbelief, and the resentment was because of betrayal.

"Why? Why did you take refuge in the Temple, why did you betray us?"

The bishop of the temple glanced at the questioning magician, and then at the old man, revealing a hint of amusement.

As a qualified Templar Bishop, the Bishop's hatred of mages is deep in his bones, and he will not hesitate to do anything that can cause harm to mages.

Because of his deep hatred, after getting the old man's refuge, he even gave up the search for the traces of the demon and put the annihilation mage in the first place.

Faced with the questioning, the old man was silent for a while, then looked at the questioner, and said, "I'm really sorry, I didn't want to do this, but I have no other choice." ”

"You know, I've been stuck between a high-level magician apprentice and a full-fledged magician for a long, long time, and I'm only so close to the bottleneck, but I never get there. ”

"And I'm seventy years old, and I can feel that I have about two to three years left in my life, and if I don't become a full-fledged magician in those two to three years, I'm going to die. ”

"I don't want to die. ”

"And I've already given you a chance, I want to trade a piece of life crystals with you at the trade fair, even if it costs a lot, but none of you want to. ”

"I know there must be some of you, but unfortunately, you don't want to exchange it for me, you're still young and have so much time to struggle, but I'm already a bad old man. ”

"You can't use the life crystals for a short time, but even so, you still don't want to help me, who is about to come to the end of my life. ”

"Since you are so ruthless, then why am I unrighteous?"

At first glance, the old man's remarks seemed to have some truth, and it was because the magicians who participated in the party were unfair to him before he made this decision.

But if you think about it carefully, you will find a loophole in the old man's words.

First of all, the life crystallization is private property, and the decision rests entirely with the owner himself, and no one can force the person to make an exchange, and no one has this right.

If this person sympathizes with the old man and is willing to exchange it, it can only mean that this person is noble, but he is unwilling to exchange, which is also the right of that person.

Just like Mel, although there is a piece of life crystal, but a large amount of blood was lost when the human body was replicated before, and life crystals are needed to replenish it, otherwise it will cause more serious sequelae.

In this case, of course, Maier would not trade the life crystals to the old man, because he and the old man were only one side, sacrificing himself to become a stranger he didn't know, and only a saint would do that.

In addition, the old man didn't know whether the magicians in the trade fair really had life crystals, but he just guessed, and based on a little guess, he thought that others were sorry for him, either mentally ill or paranoid.

Moreover, even if the old man clearly knew that there were people in the trade fair who had life crystals, they must be a minority, and the rest of the people were also sorry for the old man?

In the final analysis, this behavior of the old man is the real selfishness.

At most, others didn't help him when he was in trouble, but which magician under the power of the temple didn't have difficulties, no one lacked resources, and he didn't see much help from the old man.

If, according to the old man's theory, there are more people who don't get the resources they want this time, can they all sell others as a matter of course? This is unreasonable.

The old man, on the other hand, reaped the benefits of the temple by selling others.

Forcibly using the interests of others, no, it should be said that life, the magicians who were caught by the temple this time should all die in the hands of the temple in exchange for their own interests.

Such people's values have been seriously distorted.

A priest walked up to the bishop.

"Back to the Bishop, in addition to the heretic who has fled, there are still four heretics missing, it should be that they have not yet come out of the cave, do you need to send knights to search?"

The bishop nodded and said, "None of the evil heretics can be spared, you can take people with you yourself." ”

Mel put his ear on the stone wall, suddenly frowned, and said, "Someone has entered the cave, I heard footsteps, it is very neat, it should be the knight of the temple." ”

"Mouse, how long will it take?"

The mouse also looked anxious, and said, "It will take a while, all I have found is a dead end, and I can't get through, so you can help me buy some time." ”

The three of them glanced at each other, then understood what they meant, and then acted quickly.

The only way to do this is to rely on the detection of rats to find a way to escape, but it is clear that this short time is not enough at all, and more time is needed.

And the Templars outside the cave are approaching step by step, so there is a way to set a magic trap in the cave and engage the Templars to delay time.

Maier is not very good at magic traps, and can only set up some ordinary hunter traps, and also comes up with some magic materials with hallucinogenic effects.

The other two magicians did their best.

After all, this is a matter involving one's own life, and no one will hide it, because when everyone in the temple enters, the temple priest with the strength of an official magician will come in.

The four magician apprentices present, no matter who they were, could not escape death.
