Chapter 201: Branches
After passing through an ancient gate, a huge square suddenly appeared in front of the two of them.
Stepping into the square, the first thing that catches your eye is a huge statue, which is an old man with a wand in his hand, with an old face, who cannot see his face clearly, only a pair of eyes that are as deep as an abyss, shining with wisdom.
At a glance, it looked like a living person, and even at a certain moment, Gu Chongyan felt the immeasurable magic contained in the other party's body.
"That's Michelangelo's statue for the Grand Mage Merlin, grateful to the other party for creating this mage shrine." Ancient One said in a low voice.
Gu Chongyan nodded, took his eyes off the statue of Merlin, and cast his gaze on the people in the square.
I saw that in addition to the statue of Merlin, there were already hundreds of mages standing in the square at this time.
Unlike Kama Taj's uniform outfit, these mages are obviously much more casual, some wearing wide mage robes, some wearing strong suits, some wearing suits and leather shoes and a trench coat......
Not only is the dress very casual, but even the composition of the mages is extremely diverse.
Traditional mages, church priests, gloomy witches, mystical gypsies, witty bards, primitive tribal prophets.
That's all, Gu Chongyan even saw magical creatures such as horned demons, wing-waving elves, dwarf dwarfs, and tail-wagging mermaids.
These are things that you can never see in Kama Taj, after all, Kama Taj is said to be instructive, but it is also aimed at humans, what is going on with these non-humans.
As if he felt the suspicion in Gu Chongyan's heart, the ancient first mage explained quietly.
"Legend has it that Mage Merlin is not a pure human, and his magic can be learned by other magical creatures in addition to humans, so some mages in the London Temple are somewhat repulsive to Kama Taj, who guards humans."
Gu Chongyan suddenly realized, so the London Temple is a thorn in the inside of Kama Taj, which is somewhat unobserving.
It's no wonder that today's ancient one is dressed so solemnly, and even the Eye of Agomoto has been buried, obviously from the town.
Sure enough, Gu Chongyan swept over the many mages in front of him without a trace, those human mages, no matter which one they were, were either respectful or indifferent when facing the ancient one, and had no other emotions.
And those non-human mages were much more indifferent in the face of the ancient one, and many of them could even feel a faint hostility.
Gu Chongyan guessed that if he hadn't been able to defeat Gu Yi, he wouldn't have been able to say that this group of non-human mages would rush up and make two moves with Gu Yi, and even snatch the position of the Supreme Mage.
But thinking about it, it's not impossible, after all, in the multiverse, it's not uncommon for non-human mages to become supreme mages.
Gu Chongyan thought as he followed Gu Yi to the center of the square.
Facing the many mages, Gu Yi slowly spoke: "Fellow mages, the passage of time has taken away part of my energy, making it impossible for me to fulfill the duties of the Supreme Mage perfectly, for this reason, I will set up a guardian in each of the three temples. ”
"The temples in Port City and New York will be guarded by Wang and Mordo respectively, and the London Temple, I have decided to hand it over to this Master Sean Gu."
"I am here today to invite you to witness Master Gu becoming the guardian of the London Temple."
As he spoke, the Ancient One crossed his hands in front of his chest, and the Eye of Agamotto made a clicking sound, slowly opening to reveal a green time gem.
"Wait a minute!"
Just as the green energy was about to form a magic array, a sharp voice suddenly interrupted the ancient one's movements.
Everyone followed the sound and saw a red-skinned demon mage walk out, with undisguised malice on his face, and a pair of yellow vertical pupils fell on Gu Chongyan's body, smiling contemptuously.
"The Supreme Mage guards the Temple, we don't dare to have an opinion, but this is the London Temple, and it is a mage sanctuary built by the Grand Mage Merlin, even the Supreme Mage can't act alone."
"If the Ancient One wants him to be the guardian of the London Temple, yes, but he must show the corresponding strength, otherwise, I don't think he is qualified to protect this most noble temple and control the precious property left by the Great Master."
"Oh, what does Master Santino want to do?" Gu Yi said in a calm tone.
The red-skinned demon sneered and gave a thumbs up to himself, "It's very simple, defeat me, and I'll obey him." ”
Stupid!
Hearing this, Gu Chongyan couldn't help but roll his eyes, how could there always be such a fool in the world, doing such a thankless job.
This fight, whether he wins or loses, will not do him any good.
Lost, was slapped in the face by Gu Chongyan in front of so many people, and if he won, he slapped the ancient one in the face in public, no matter how much the London Temple listened to the tune and didn't listen to Xuan, it was also subordinate to Kama Taj and obeyed the orders of the ancient one.
Gu Yi wanted to clean up a person, it was a no-brainer.
Moreover, this old lady is not as easy to talk as she seems on the surface, this is a ruthless person who kills the multi-dimensional armor and drives the gods and Buddhas out of the earth.
If you really offend her, the table can be lifted for you, and the London Temple is not a single piece.
Just as Gu Chongyan was complaining in his heart, the red-skinned demon said again, only to see a sly smile on his face, and said, "However, even if you defeat me, it doesn't mean that you can defend the London Temple." ”
"I, Santino, to put it bluntly, am a small character, and if I can defeat me, it doesn't mean that I can defeat the enemies of the London Temple."
"So, if I want him to be the guardian of the London Temple, he needs to defeat not only me, but all the mages who have an opinion about him."
"Otherwise, if we can't deal with it, how can we deal with the enemy who has crossed multiple dimensions?"
"If that's the case, why don't the Supreme Mages hand over the London Temple to us, let us guard it together, and everyone will protect the safety of the temple together, what do you think?"
As soon as these words came out, many mages responded one after another.
"Well, that's right."
"I think it's okay, if you want to guard the temple, isn't it to have the strength to suppress the heroes?"
"That's right, if you don't have this ability, you don't have to rely on us in the end, then it's better to be in charge of the temple together from the beginning, and there will be less running-in."
……
A few magicians from different backgrounds said a word, as if Gu Chongyan was not qualified to control the London Temple if he couldn't defeat them.
Not only them, but even some mages from human origin also showed a bit of abnormality on their faces.
Obviously, the red-skinned demon was not as stupid as Gu Chongyan thought, and this group of people had been eyeing the London Temple from the beginning.
After all, the temple inherited from the hands of the great mage Merlin, you don't need to think about it to know how many good things there are, just take out a little bit, and it will be of infinite use to these mages.
