Chapter 31: The Fool

A few days later, Alan and his Knights army also captured Gion, one of the three Mén cities, and joined Scott, Lavia, and Soth in a plain not far from Sassen, heralding the greatest battle ever seen in Sassen. 【Reading】**Fastest update**

For a time, Sassen became the focus of the entire empire and even the whole world, and everyone's eyes were focused here, they wanted to witness the final result of this accident, whether the alliance army, which had gathered most of the strength of the empire, could defeat the man who stood at the top of the world, who would be the victor of this jiaofeng!

Generally speaking, the power of a person is quite small, but it seems that this is not appropriate for the man Argus, that man, that demonic man, not only subverted the country with the power of one person, but also blatantly became the ruler of the empire, and everyone knew that neither the Prince of Glenn nor the young Emperor His Majesty were just puppets of this man.

Argus Bart Cranfield, this man is already on top of the world!

He has a powerful power that ordinary people can't match, and it is this power that breaks the original order and power system of the wizarding world, before the appearance of Argus, the wizarding world's classification of magicians is only three levels of magic apprentice, magician, and great magician, and the holy magician is just the honorific title of the empire for magicians who have made outstanding contributions, and it is not entirely used as a strength division level.

Therefore, the great magician has always been the highest title as a magician, and it can be considered that this is the culmination that can be achieved as a human being, but the emergence of Argus has subverted this concept, and the great magician, who was unattainable in the eyes of everyone in the past, seems so powerless in front of that terrible man.

[The more ordinary great magician], after the battle of Heliriox, this title was successively used by the black magicians of Vanderle to distinguish the strong above the level of the great magician, but the concept of this division of strength is still a little vague, if the use of elements to cast magic is a symbol of the magician, and the domain is a symbol of the great magician, then, the realm of the more ordinary great magician, what is the difference?

Be!

The battle between Hend Kendi and Argus proved that even humans could do this, and the Vandel Dark mages put forward their earlier forgotten theories, rekindling their quest for the mysteries of magical truth.

It has to be said that the appearance of Argus has also had a positive effect on the wizarding world, of course, compared to the harm he caused, it is obviously insignificant.

-- July 4o7 AH, Sassen -- Argus, the center of attention, remained in his room, standing on the balcony, staring blankly at the sky with reddish, slightly grey eyes.

"What are you looking at, Argus?" a crisp voice sounded as Xiaonv Lily stepped out from behind him, strange as to say, the child, who was blind, seemed to have the ability to sense the presence of other objects, and had never fallen over anything he had bumped.

"Nothing, just looking at the sky...... Argus said lightly, but he was more distracted than he was looking at the sky.

"That's wonderful...... "Xiaonv said in an envious tone, and walked up to Argus, lying on the balcony, soaking up the sun with his eyes closed, and looking lovely.

The envy in that tone made Argus turn his head to look at Lily, and when he saw her blank and slightly gray eyes, Argus's eyes flashed with a hint of regret and regret, and he involuntarily reached out and rubbed the head of the Rouxiaonv child.

Also abandoned by the light, this Xiao ghost ...... "I really hate ......" However, this practice seemed to make Xiao Lili very unhappy, pouting, and grabbing Argus's hand with both hands, and when she successfully caught it, she giggled, like a normal child.

Looking at Xiao Lily's cute face that kept smiling, Argus sighed slightly.

That's it...... However, at this moment, Argus's eyes, which were still a little warm, suddenly changed, and his eyes suddenly became extremely cold, only to see him pat Xiao Lili's head silently, and said in an irrefutable tone, "Go back to your room, Xiao ghost!"

"Yay?" Xiao Lily obviously didn't understand why Argus, who was playing a game with her, suddenly became like this, but when she heard that tone, she didn't dare to disobey, just drooped her head and left the room sullenly, and before she walked out of the room, she looked back at Argus with a pitiful expression.

Just after Xiao Lili left the room, the whole room was suddenly filled with a rich dark aura, the dark aura was rolling around, devouring all the surrounding lights nearby, the whole room suddenly darkened, and the only thing that could be clearly seen was that a pair of pale red eyes suddenly opened in the room...... Sighing secretly, Argus knelt down on one knee in front of these eyes, bowed his head, and said in a respectful voice, "What do you command, my master......"

I saw that there seemed to be a bit of evil light in those pale red eyes, and then, the deep words resounded throughout the room like the roar of a beast. ##看xiao说必去##

"You've made me wait impatiently, Argus......"

Argus lowered his head, unable to see what his expression was now, except that he said in a humble tone, "I'm sorry, my master......"

"That's enough!" the beastly roar sounded again, faintly angry, "I don't want to hear any justification!—don't forget, Argus, I have given you infinite power, and I can take it back at any time if I want to!"

"Yes, my master ......"

"If you understand!—my patience has a limit, don't let me down again, I hate waiting!"

"Yes......"

"Now that you understand it, go and complete your mission, I need more, more soul power! to kill, to kill and destroy everything you see...... Don't you hate humans very much, kill them all!"

“...... I see!"

Looking at Argus with a look of deep anger, those eyes said in a deep voice, "...... This is your last chance!--Don't let me down again!"

"Yes......"

When Argus looked up again, the darkness in the room was gone, with the eyes.

"Hey," laughed to himself, Argus shook his head, got up from the ground, and muttered to himself, "Looks like Marmén is getting impatient, that's bad!—well, forget it, this matter has to come to an end sooner or later, and there's no way to drag it out!"

It wasn't long before Argus's servant, the demon god Hanpa, flew in from the balcony in the form of a gray dove, accompanied by a gray mist.

"You call me, master?" and the moment he landed, Hampa changed into his usual old man's appearance, looking at Argus with a bit of flattery and flattery.

"Hmm!" nodded faintly, and Argus, who was sitting in the sand, said in a deep voice, "The important moment is coming, I need to know the situation of those nobles in Sassen City!"

As if to understand what Argus meant, Hanpa smiled, bowed his head and said, "Don't worry, my master, I have completely controlled those stupid pigs......" At this point, he raised his head, but saw Argus looking at him with a strange look, and his heart was a little suspicious.

"Oh, well done!" Argus seemed to sense his gaffe, inhaling slightly, and said in a deep voice, "What about Kalia, Stidio and Gion?"

"Don't worry, master!—everything is in plan!" said Hanpa, smiling, "those foolish rebels think they have taken back the three cities by their own strength, They...... Who of them would know that it was just bait used by their master to lure them to Sasson, and now those guys are very motivated to take Sassen back, well, it should be said that it is delusional, and what arrogant and stupid creatures are humans......"

"......" For some reason, for the first time, Argus felt that Hampa's laughter was so harsh, only to see him take a slight breath, wave his hand impatiently, and say, "I don't want to hear this, what about the specific strength of those combined forces?"

"This ......" Hanpa hesitated for a moment, thought for a moment, and said respectfully, "Those rebels are about sixty thousand people, and many of them are magicians, and the number is about two thousand......" As he spoke, he raised his hand, and a strange light map suddenly appeared in the room.

The images in the light map are the battles that took place in the three cities of Kalia, Stidio, and Gion.

Argus didn't seem to be in high spirits, just staring at the battles casually, and suddenly, with a little surprise in his eyes, he muttered with some joy, "This...... Isn't this the Xiao ghost? That Xiao ghost is actually back? I didn't expect ......" As he spoke, his slightly gray eyes suddenly regained their former brilliance, clenched his right fist, and laughed in a low voice, "Yes, yes, yes, that's interesting!—now is a good time to kill me, Soth!"

"Lord...... "Hanpa was clearly incomprehensible to Argus's euphoria. &&&Latest Chapter Baidu Search:&&

"Good, good!" As if he had gained some other goal, Argus regained his old momentum, paced back and forth in the room, and smiled wickedly, "Looks like you can't wait to fight me again, right......?"

"This ......," Hanpa's expression was a little embarrassed, and he frowned, "I'm afraid those guys ......"

"Hmph!" Argus said with a cold snort, "then tell them that if they don't want to be driven back to the underworld by the dark mages again, help me!"

Hanpa was stunned for a moment, and said with a smile, "I understand, master!"

"Jerry Belfort, tell that guy too, if he wants to continue to be the Grand Wizard of his Imperial Seat......"

"I understand, master!" said Hanpa, who smiled, and then, as if remembering something, frowned, "but master, what about the affairs of the east?"

"East?" Argus1 said with a suspicious expression, "What east?"

"It's those Thranders," said Hanpa, seeing that Argus didn't seem to understand, "I reported to you a few days ago, maybe the master didn't care at the time...... The Thranders have also heeded Vander's call and have organized an army of about fifteen thousand men, which is attacking the city to the east of us!"

"Thuranders?" said Argus, with a hint of mockery on his face, in his usual joking tone, "Oh yes, it's going to bother the host a lot if the guests who haven't been invited come to join in the fun, don't those guys understand that?—hey, leave them alone, it's just a ragtag army, we need to pay attention to the Union army in the west!"

"That's what the master said," as if thinking of something, Hampa smiled with relief and echoed, "Compared to the Confederate army in the west, the army of the Thranders is really pitiful, and they don't even have a single magician, and they want to attack our city?"

"Alright," interrupted Hampa impatiently, Argus muttered, "go and prepare, I want you to gather all our forces in Sassen within three days!"

"Yes, master!"

As the Hanpa turned into a gray mist and left the balcony like a wind, Argus couldn't help but chuckle under his breath, and he seemed very happy.

"Ah, Soth, come quickly, only your presence will make this game more interesting, only you can make me get the last joy, hurry, hurry, hurry!--I'm waiting for you! on this stage called Sassen!...... Hahaha!"

And at the same time...... -- The Confederate garrison a few hundred miles away from Sassen -- After Eren arrived with his Knights of the Winds of Freedom, almost all the forces of the Confederate army had been assembled here, and in the following days, the lords and city lords from all over the vicinity sent troops to help, although their armies were insignificant compared to the three major forces of Artak, Galik, and Operels, but it was enough to prove the centripetal force of this campaign, that is, the support rate.

Argus, after all, is only an outsider, whether in the eyes of the merchants or the aristocracy, he cannot be recognized after all, he is a usurper, once he is defeated, then there will be countless people who want to pull him down from the heights.

After all, no matter how much you cover it up, the replacement of power is always accompanied by an ugly side.

Even among the seemingly close alliance forces, there are all kinds of contradictions...... "What's the matter? The Imperial City of Sassen is right in front of you, don't you want to make any suggestions?"

In a meeting of the Confederates similar to the Round Table, as the representative of Prince Theo, the former Deputy Commander of the Royal Knights, Bert Brackley, patted the table and said, "The whole empire and even the whole world are watching us, and we still have to spend time here, it's ridiculous!"

"That's not what you said, Your Excellency, the former Deputy Commander of the Royal Knights!" interrupted the other party's words with a grin, Alan held his chin and looked with interest at the demon god Lelagin who was leaning against the wall with his eyes closed, and then glanced at Scott again, with a little surprise in his eyes, and then turned his head to look at Bert Brackley, and said jokingly, "I understand Your Excellency, and of course, I also understand His Royal Highness the Prince beside you...... Oh, it's His Royal Highness the Former Prince!--is he so eager to regain the throne?"

"You!" glared at Allen fiercely, and Bert Brackley frowned, "Please also pay attention to the words and tone!--Prince Theo is the rightful heir of this country, but he was only used by Argus's hún egg to carry the black pot for him...... but before he could finish his sentence, he was interrupted by Prince Theo, who had been closing his eyes.

"Shut up, Bert!—no matter how much you try to defend it, it's always ...... way."

"But His Royal Highness ...... Prince"

"That's it," stopped Bert Brackley with a commanding look, and Prince Theo looked up at Allen deeply, and said in a deep voice, "Besides, I'm not the Legion Commander who would choose to stop at Sasson, am I?"

"Hey!—what a crude provocation!" "Hey, hey, Allen casually tapped his fingers on the table, looked at Prince Theo and said with a grin, "Is it my delusion that [you] suddenly feel like you're much better than you were some time ago?"

"Hmph!" Prince Theo snorted lightly, ignoring Allen's taunt, in fact, His Royal Highness the prince was quite angry in his heart, but as the days went by, he gradually understood that the current empire was no longer the era when King Sassen ruled, to put it mildly, whether it was Artak, Galik, Operyls, or Vander, they all had something that he could not control as His Royal Highness the First Prince. The uncontrollable power, the royal family's grasp of various regions, has become very thin, which can be clearly seen from the attitude of those lords and city lords. - Almost all the lords and lords chose to attach themselves to Artac, Galik, and Operiels, who were close to their realm, rather than the prince.

The centripetal force of the Yawood family seems to have come to an end...... And because of this, even if there is anger and jealousy in his heart, Prince Theo knows very well that if he wants to regain control of this country, he must get the support of these guys in front of him, even if it costs a heavy price!

It's finally becoming more mature, Your Royal Highness...... Cliff Baylis, a magician of the former Royal Wizards' First Detachment, sighed secretly, but at the same time, he also knew that His Royal Highness was only trying his best to contain the dissatisfaction in his heart, and this dissatisfaction might bring another disaster to the future of the Empire...... Just as he was pondering how to turn the conversation to Sasson's Argus, Scott, who was on Theo's side, cleared them up.

"Alright, let's end the boring conversation! Now it's time for us to think about how to deal with the next battle, no one would think that this upcoming battle will be as easy as the previous ones......, right?"

"Understood," lazily interrupted Scott, Alan said with a mocking expression, "If the next battle will be as easy as before, then I will be much more relieved!--The guy I met in Gion, the demon god named Tin Méngli, was a good warrior, but he ordered a retreat before he could warm up...... Hey, even if it's bait, you have to have the consciousness to be bait, right? It's not enough to see!" As he spoke, he turned his head to look at Jean Connell, the werewolf behind Lavia who was leaning against the wall silently, and said with a grin, "You said yes, uncle?"

"Humph!" the werewolf snorted softly as he crossed his arms.

Lavia couldn't help but glance at Connell behind her, she was as skeptical as Soth as she was about why he chose to help Argus, but from Connell's mouth, they heard a shocking fact.

In fact, as early as a year ago, the dark altar had been successfully completed, but Argus did not immediately start collecting soul power, but kept dragging it like that, until the ancient will Mar became more and more impatient, Argus had to send a large number of death knights around to search for civilians as sacrifices, in other words, in fact, the bad situation he is facing now may have been born a year ago, but Argus did not do that...... Moreover, as far as Connell said, Argus himself did not seem to be willing to let the ancient will of Mar Mén come into the world, but as an apostle of Ma Mén, he could not go against Ma Mén's will, which made Lavia and Soth very consternation, after all, in their eyes, Argus has become synonymous with the most evil guy in the world.

"Why would someone unrelated appear in the meeting room, and they are still enemies!" General Crowley, the representative of Lorne Fortress, looked at Connell and the demon god Lelagin with suspicion.

"Hmph," said Lelagin, snorting softly, closing his eyes and sneering, "Do you care, human?—rest assured, my mission has been accomplished, and then, I just want to be a bystander to see how you humans struggle in this darkness!—what a foolishness, knowing that there is a dead end ahead, but rushing forward without hesitation, it is like a flying insect to a fire, what a tragedy!"

"You!" General Crowley slapped the table angrily, then frowned at Scott and said, "Your Royal Highness Duke Xiao, don't you want to explain this? Why did this guy, who is an enemy, appear in the conference room of the Union Army!"

I saw Scott indifferently glance at Lelagin who was leaning against the wall behind him, pushed his glasses, and said softly, "For a guy who can't be killed, he is willing to be a bystander, this is already a great luck, don't ask for anything more, General Crowley!"

"Uh, this ......" General Crowley was dumbfounded, after all, in the previous three battles, he had also learned what kind of existence those demon gods were, and besides, he didn't want to conflict with Scott or even Galikson for a little thing.

"In this battle in Sasson, I'm afraid those necromancers will also choose to fight......"

"I'm afraid so, after all, those guys got Van Duo by the tricks of the next work, Van Duo belongs to the dark magicians, once Argus fails, those guys will definitely be driven back to the dark world again, even if it is for their own sake, those guys will have to be our enemies......"

"Those guys who are cao and killed corpses, it's disgusting......"

"The worst of all, the royal magicians, Jerry Belfort will probably choose to be our enemy, after all, he is in a very bad situation now, and if Argus fails, he is destined to end badly......"

"In other words, in the next battle, the magical forces on the Argus side will also participate in the battle?"

"I'm afraid so......"

"It's not easy to do!"

The various lords and castle lords in the conference room expressed their opinions.

Glancing at [husband] sitting like a wooden sculpture beside him, Lavia quietly pushed his arm and said, "You have something to say, don't forget, you now represent Vander!"

Soth, however, still seemed to be immersed in Conneill's astonishing words.

Speaking of which, he was one of the first people to come into contact with the man Argus, and it can be said that he knew the other person best, after all, he was also an apostle, but the more he came into contact, the more Suss couldn't understand what that guy was thinking.

Is it revenge? Is it killing?

Soth always felt that that was not what Argus wanted, so what was it? what did the man want, who had been completely consumed by the darkness?

Faintly, Soth had a strange illusion that even Argus, who had great power, was just a sad fellow, a wretched creature...... Tut!

Shaking his head, Soth put the ridiculous thought behind him as best he could, and prepared for another and final showdown with Argus...... Seeing that her [husband] actually ignored herself, Lavia snorted a little angrily, put her ten fingers on the slender tuǐ, sat on the chair obliquely, broke the discussion of the lords in the conference room, and said lightly, "This is nothing to discuss, it should come, it will always come!―― I don't think he will just surrender and obediently return Sassen to us, so the final battle is inevitable, whether it's those royal magicians or those necromancers, we are not in a weak position in terms of magical power, and at that time, we will ......"

"At that time," interrupted Lavia, Soth said in a deep voice, "that guy, just give it to me!"

His voice was not loud, but the confidence hidden in his words succeeded in quieting the entire conference room.

Inexplicably interrupted, Lavia seemed to feel a little annoyed, glared at her [husband] angrily, and snorted indignantly, but did not say anything against it...... There's no way you're going to object to it, right?

"Hey," said Lavia's deflated expression, Alan shrugged his shoulders, turned his head to look at Scott, and chuckled, "That's it, it's set in three days!"

"Ahh
