"The change in the original Wucheng has failed. Although for me, nothing has changed. I'm a mage under the direct administration of the Forest Country, and I don't care who the original Wucheng belongs to. ”

"It's just that after so many years, I still feel unwilling to witness its failure. The resident mage stared out the window, as if he had some understanding.

In the direction of the fire, a group of knights was coming from the military district, through the panicked streets, rushing into the panicked crowd and starting to extinguish the flames.

The fire has not descended, it has been burning violently, it is estimated that the treasures in the auction house have been completely destroyed, and the only remaining hope of delaying time in the original Wucheng is also being consumed with this flame.

"Looks like it's up to me. "Seeing that the situation of the auction house that caught fire is critical, and there is even a tendency to worsen," said the resident mage.

He turned around and beckoned to Luo Xue.

"Follow me......"

Luo Xue followed him out of the fifth floor of the Mage Tower, and then went all the way up to the eighth floor.

The eight-story mage tower, there is an empty flat lift above the top of the tower, and the mage stationed in the city walked to the platform, looking at the place where the fire broke out, and sure enough, it had begun to spread.

"Their actions have endangered the citizens here, and now it is my duty. The mage lowered his staff and began to chant the incantation.

"Kerzaré!" the resident spell chanted a spell, the bottom of the staff in his right hand touched the floor, and then a huge magic circle appeared in the original black city.

At the same time, he used his staff to point far away at the auction house that was on fire, and in the sky above the flames, the magic array flashed sharply.

A huge ball of water condensed in the sky, and all the water elements in the original Wucheng gathered here, and under the command of the resident mage, the water ball fell in response to the sound and enveloped the auction house.

The raging flames were quickly extinguished, and at the same time, the water balls also scattered, and the splashed water droplets disappeared in the air.

I have qualifications as a great magician in water magic. The resident mage knew what Luo Xue wanted to ask, so he said in advance.

"It turns out that this is the defense mechanism that every city has...... Luo Xue had read about it in magic books, and knew that the magic tower was the center of the defense mechanism. But I didn't expect it to be the center of a magic array.

"This is the defense mechanism of the former Wucheng. Rather, every city has a similar defense mechanism, including Overwatch. ”

"Originally, no one was allowed to see the process of casting the spell, but for the sake of it, you helped me improve the spell. Let's give your wandering mage an eye. ”

The city-resident mage lowered his staff and said to Luo Xue. His head didn't turn, and it looked like the spell wasn't over yet.

There was no vision magnification spell to help Luo Xue and watch what was going on at the scene where the flames were extinguished. And the resident mage stands in the center of the magic array, that is, on the magic tower, and can sense everything that exists with the help of the magic array.

The study of the spell of the garrison, as well as the construction of the mage tower, only by mastering these two techniques, can you have the qualification to become a mage in the city.

Such a large-scale magical enchantment would require at least five spell slots to be consumed. In the short time that the mage in the city was casting, Luo Xue saw that the luster of the mage tower, which was the source of spell casting energy, was weakening at a speed visible to the naked eye.

"A huge energy drain in exchange for an all-powerful magical enchantment. ”

In the next second, an earthy yellow energy shield rose in the original Wucheng. At the same time, a huge mage's hand emerged from above, grabbing the arsonist who had already been locked.

The Mage's Hand floated in the air, sending the arsonist all the way to the mage, clutching to the edge of the mage's tower.

This man is the arsonist that Luo Xue saw through the window, and he is also the man who picks quarrels and provokes trouble.

He was caught by the mage's hand and couldn't move, his face showed a frightened expression, and his shoulders kept loosening, trying to break free from the mage's grasp.

It's just that when he saw it under his feet and realized that he was outside the mage tower, the height of the eight-story mage tower made him immediately give up struggling and look at the mage in front of him instead.

"Are you the one sent by the city?" the resident mage asked directly, while controlling the mage's hand to squeeze him tightly to prevent it.

The man's bones creaked with crushing, and his tongue chattered under intense pressure.

"Do you think I~ will tell you?" the man's face distorted, and he didn't say a word under the mage's questioning, and at the same time he saw a young man following the mage's side, and immediately laughed sarcastically.

"Have you already found an accomplice? Now it seems that it can help you delay the situation of the former Wucheng. But the city will eventually be abandoned! It will never be turned over!"

Because of the forest country, there can be no blatant battles between major cities, otherwise they will be marked with a sign of ambition, and the royal family of the forest country will send troops to investigate, and usually nothing good will happen.

It was impossible for him to confess who had instructed him to set the fire.

"Don't bother you!" the man gave him a vicious look, knowing that he would not survive any of them, and then in his bound hands, he vigorously crushed one of the crystals hidden in his palm.

A crisp sound came out, and the crystal shattered, and the mysterious liquid hidden in the crystal flowed from the man's palm. As soon as the liquid touched the man's skin, it burrowed into it and reacted with something inside the man's body. His body swelled rapidly, and even the hands of the mages who had been strengthened by the city's magic array could not control it.

The mage felt bad and quickly let go of the mage's hand, but unfortunately the man's swollen body had reached its limit, and at the same time as the mage's hand was released, a violent explosion began.

"Come to hell with me!" After a maniacal laugh, the man's body exploded. In the dazzling aurora, the man's torn flesh and blood flew towards the unsuspecting mage.

The mage's pupils dilated infinitely, and the blood-red killing machine quickly approached in the blink of an eye.

That's it! There was only one sentence in his mind, and it was too late to cast any spell now.

"Be careful!"

Realizing that something was wrong, Luo Xue immediately pushed the mage away, and at the same time instinctively took out the dragon scale shield in the space bag and protected it in front of him, blocking the deadly explosion. It's a pity that the range of the small shield's defense is too small, and Luo Xue's lower body was swept by the aftermath of the explosion, and a terrifying hole appeared in the robe. The muscles of his right leg were also pierced at high velocity by an exploding bone, and in an instant he lost his strength and fell to his knees.

After a violent explosion, a corner of the mage tower was blown away, and Luo Xue was half-kneeling on the ground, her hands propped on the edge of the missing corner, gasping for breath. (To be continued.) )
