Chapter 650: Dumbledore Who Lacks Money (10,000 Words Asking for Subscription)

Majestic!

Glorious!

Huge!

Filled with supernatural magical powers that are completely different from modern society, but also very developed and convenient!

Along with multiple super-casting environments built up from other planes connected by the Core of Mythra, the Elven Magic Lock, and the Traveling Mage lands, Ascatla, the capital of the empire on the west coast of the continent of Feren, has presented a bizarre scene similar to the high degree of fusion of magic and technology in the Ravnica plane.

Combined with a population that has swelled to more than 2.4 million, a single city has more wealth and power than several countries and regions combined.

In particular, according to a certain position and order, the mage towers that are dotted with special nodes in the city have been built one after another, and a total of hundreds of them have been built.

The giant mage towers are owned by Zuo Si himself or his Arcane Mystic Society and Masked Mage Guild, while the small and medium-sized ones are owned by the mages themselves.

But all mage towers have one thing in common, and that is that they are all integrated into a vast magical web system.

In normal times, of course, the tower owner can do whatever he wants within the scope of permission.

But once in wartime, they must obey the command of the main tower, which is the core of the network, and become part of the magical defense system of Askatra.

If necessary, they must also be called up to join the mage group to fight for the Empire.

Of course, the benefit is access to more knowledge, resources, and channels to sell homegrown potions, scrolls, and magic items.

Due to the near-infinite energy provided by the Core of Mythra, temporary magical items that had flourished in the days of Netherel began to come into the public eye once again.

What used to cost thousands of gold coins can now be made for only a hundred gold coins or even a dozen gold coins.

Not only does it work within the city limits of Askatra, but it can also be used in all other large cities of the Empire, and even the horse-drawn carriages that used to transport the main force in the city have gradually been replaced by mechanical vehicles powered by magical energy, or flying machines that travel quickly through the sky.

As for the water supply, you only need to spend some money to buy a stainless steel valve that can directly connect to the water elemental plane.

Fans powered by magic nets, refrigerators, air conditioners, radios, and magic mirrors that can be used to watch theater performances remotely at home for a fee, have also been created by the inventors of the Church of Gunde, the god of mages and craftsmen.

In addition, more efficient magic machines have replaced the hydraulic hammers built along the riverbank, and large stamping machines, hydraulic presses, and steel-making blast furnaces have also appeared in the factories of the industrial zone.

Even in the food processing and textile industries, many have made the transition from handicraft workshops to assembly line crafts.

"What a beautiful and vibrant magical city. I still have a strong sense of unreality. I wish Gellert would see this one day and join me on this great adventure. ”

Through the windows of the Mage's Tower, Dumbledore condescendingly watched the early morning flow of people rushing to work on the streets of the city, and couldn't help but sigh.

They scramble to buy cheap and nutritious breakfasts and drinks from roadside stalls to fill their mouths, talk to their colleagues or friends about the bad things they encounter in life and work-related content, and then swear and get into the crowded track train powered by magic.

This is a new type of public transportation system that emerged after the Magic Locks covered the major cities, and now connects several of the most important areas of the city.

It appears mainly because the space span of Ascatra has become larger and larger in the process of continuous expansion.

Whether it is transporting people or goods, there is an urgent need for a means of transportation that is both cheap and convenient.

Inspired by the ore rolling stock in the mines, a mage uses the complex spell effects that the Magic Locks can provide, eventually creating a train that automatically travels on a specific track.

It's not like a tram on Earth, it's just a simple rectangular empty box with some seats and handles inside, and one or several buckets may be dragged behind it as needed, with no wheels at the bottom, and it floats directly on the ground.

As for the tracks, they are not two rails, but a palm-wide magic pole that constantly generates a slight thrust upward.

Similarly, the bottom of the carriage is equipped with a magic pole.

In this way, as long as the [Feather Fall Technique] is blessed with the carriage through the magic lock, the repulsive force generated between the magnetic poles alone is enough to make the fully loaded carriage float.

Immediately after opening the passage under the carriage to the wind elemental plane, a strong air flow is obtained, which generates a steady forward thrust.

Since all magic-related creations are temporary magic items, they are very cheap to build and require little maintenance.

If it weren't for the fact that he was already in another world, Dumbledore would have even thought that this was on the streets of London decades ago.

Of course, the civilians of Ascatla, whether in terms of food, shelter or income, are a hundred times stronger than the colonial empire that did not set back then.

After all, one of the two is the capital control state, while the other is the absolute dictatorship of the power to control the capital.

Nearly all of the West Coast Empire's tax revenues were spent on infrastructure, education, health, and social welfare, in addition to keeping the bureaucracy running.

Far from taking not a single copper plate from it, the royal family will even add a huge amount of money every year that is beyond the reach of other countries to train arcane spellcasters, encourage innovation and invention.

Most importantly, Zuo Si, as the dictator of the empire, provided the country with strong military protection.

Churches of gods, gangs, thieves' guilds, dragons, evil organizations, and other-dimensional creatures are largely afraid to do anything here.

Otherwise, if there is even the slightest outrageous behavior, a tyrannical iron fist will fall from the sky in minutes.

According to Dumbledore's current understanding, the West Coast Empire never cares about any laws when fighting such enemies, and it will not be bound by rules and regulations.

Once discovered, they will immediately unleash the forces hidden in the darkness to uproot the opponent.

There will be no trial, no intervention by the justice system, and all the participants will evaporate from the world without exception, as if they had never existed.

Thinking of this, Dumbledore, who had already drunk the life-prolonging potion and returned to the appearance of forty years old, couldn't help but sigh in a low voice: "Well, I now understand why Soth has not had the slightest interest in the power of the wizarding world from the beginning to the end.

Compared to this powerful magical empire, the wizards' world is really small and pitiful, and it is estimated that it will not satisfy his appetite at all.

What's more, if a country that was originally from the Middle Ages to the Renaissance developed into what it is in a short period of time, anyone has to admit that he is definitely an excellent ruler.

Although the style of acting can be a bit arbitrary.

But it's understandable.

After all, there are all kinds of dangers in this world, including gods, angels, demons, devils, dragons, etc.

If the ruler is not strong enough, it will lead to serious and disastrous consequences......"

There is no doubt that Albus Dumbledore was never a rigid person.

Removing a very small number of issues involving bottom lines and principles, he actually does not have any obvious political leanings, nor is he as kind and righteous as many people think, and even sometimes uses some extraordinary means to achieve his goals.

Ever since he came to Ascatra with the lich of the Arcane Secret Society, this old man who once stood at the pinnacle of the wizarding world has continued to delve into the history of the continent of Faeron through the rich books in the library, and knows how many terrible dangers this world hides beneath the seemingly calm surface.

What made him even more thrilled was the gods, ancient evil creatures, and god-like powers that could easily trigger a crisis of annihilation, as well as the never-ending battles between the gods of different camps.

In such an environment, mortal life is so fragile that the slightest carelessness can be forced to become a tragic victim.

Therefore, Dumbledore believed that in this situation, whether the ruling method is dictatorial or democratic, it is important to provide maximum protection for ordinary people.

And this is undoubtedly the best one that the West Coast Empire has done.

Just as he was about to turn around and go to the cafeteria next to him to have some breakfast, and then review the magic knowledge taught yesterday before class, a young female apprentice with short brown hair suddenly rushed out of the corner of the stairs, quickly took out a book with a red cover from his arms, presented it with both hands, and said breathlessly, "It's still ...... Give it back to you! Thank you so much. Without your help, I probably wouldn't have had access to this kind of profound and complex magical knowledge in my life. ”

"You're welcome, Miss Daisy.

I'm just being generous to others.

After all, these books and notes don't belong to me, all I do is borrow them from the library temporarily.

In addition, I must solemnly remind you that as a mage, it is taboo to stay up late for a long time and not get enough rest. ”

Dumbledore took the red-covered book, a faint smile on his face.

I have to say that his appearance is maintained at about forty years old, and he is the most masculine in his life.

Whether it is those weathered eyes full of wisdom, or the mature aura emanating from the whole body, and that handsome face, it is enough to have a fatal attraction to young girls who are not deeply involved in the world.

The young apprentice known as Daisy's heart beat faster instantly, and a blush appeared on his face, and he hurriedly touched the dark circles under his eyes caused by staying up late, and responded in a shy tone: "This is also something that can't be helped."

After all, for an apprentice like me, learning magic is not easy.

If it weren't for the financial support provided by His Majesty the Great Emperor, the teaching materials and courses required to prepare during the apprenticeship period would not have been affordable by ordinary families.

Not to mention the books in the higher-level library that cost thousands or even tens of thousands of gold coins at a glance.

So I had to take every opportunity I could to improve myself.

Only by obtaining a higher casting level and mastering more spells can you have a chance to earn more money and go further on this path.

A big man like you, who can come and go in and out of the high-level library to borrow any book, doesn't understand the hardships of us civilian-born apprentices.

Of course, I'm not complaining about anything.

After all, if it were before, civilians like me wouldn't even have the qualifications to touch magic. ”

With that, Daisy touched her chest with one hand and bowed deeply to express her gratitude.

Because she knew very well the value of that book.

Even selling yourself to Serre's slave traders ten times might not be enough if converted into gold.

The girl had no idea why Dumbledore was helping her for free.

Could it be that he fell in love with his young body and beauty?

If that's the case, then Daisy is definitely more than happy to be a mistress to this middle-aged man who is both mature and handsome.

But the problem is that she has hinted several times, but the other party just laughed it off and was not moved at all.

She was very disturbed by this completely unequal relationship.

After all, the values that mages believe in are what they want to get, what they have to give.

When a person keeps giving you benefits without asking for payment, it often means that the final price to pay can be very large.

What's more, Dumbledore's identity and origin are too mysterious.

So much so that no one knew who he really was, why he had only started learning arcane magic at such an age, and that he could have his own private room in the mage's tower, as well as access to the superlative library and borrow books at will.

The last one, in particular, can only be obtained by legendary casters known as "masters".

But the other party is obviously not a legendary spellcaster, otherwise there is no need to follow the other apprentices to take the basic course.

But what Daisy didn't know was that Dumbledore gave her books because she was used to being the headmaster of Hogwarts, and she was used to helping those clever and hard-working apprentices in any way she could.

As for beauty......

I'm sorry, people don't like women at all.

Looking at the young girl's worried expression, Dumbledore couldn't help but smile and shook his head, "Don't be so polite, Miss Daisy.

I believe that with your ingenuity and hard work, you will be able to go far on the path of magic.

You have enough talent, and I just don't want it to go to waste.

Come on, your future will be bright. ”

"Thank you, I swear I will never forget this kindness."

Daisy was clearly thrilled by these words.

Because her starting point is too low, she can't buy all kinds of expensive materials for experiments like children from rich families, borrow and copy those spells that cost money to learn, so she has always been very inferior in her heart.

Even when I eat, I can only eat free meals, and I never dare to touch those delicacies of the mountains and seas that you need to pay to eat.

In the process of learning magic, apprentices with and without money are exactly like people from two worlds.

Although there is no difference in their status and rank.

However, at the same level of intelligence, an apprentice with money will always learn faster and cast spells at a higher level than an apprentice without money.

The latter often requires more than a dozen times or even dozens of times the effort to barely catch up with the former.

"Don't put too much pressure on yourself, learning magic is the most taboo thing to rush to. Let's go, let's go have some breakfast together, I'm in for a treat. ”

Dumbledore led Daisy into the dining hall and ordered a large array of high-quality cakes, biscuits, bread, and steaks.

As a person who is not happy with sweets, since his body regained his youth, he began to eat sweets with revenge, even if he didn't eat, he had to stuff two pieces of sugar or various flavors of fresh milk cakes into his mouth.

After filling their stomachs, the two of them went to the place where they had come to class with the other apprentices, waiting for the Tower Consciousness to descend in the form of phantoms to teach them new magical knowledge.

By the time the morning class was over, it was close to eleven o'clock.

As learning magic causes the brain to use up energy at a faster rate, hordes of apprentices flock to the cafeteria to satisfy their hungry appetites with sumptuous meals.

However, Dumbledore did not go with him today, but left the Mage Tower alone and went to the borough of Ascatla.

As he passed by the market along the way, he didn't forget to stop by and take a stroll around the market, where merchants from all over the world gathered to sell all sorts of strange goods.

Not only the continent of Faeron, but also the merchants from the continent of Karatu in the far east, the indigenous chieftains of the Continent of Aztec, and the caravans from the outer planes and other physical planes in magical ships were all attracted by the thriving markets here.

As long as the law and order are followed, even demons, devils, mind flayers, eye demons, Gisyankees, and dragons can rent shops and stalls to do business.

The currencies used for trading also range from precious metals to souls.

Some merchants who like to cast long lines to catch big fish even allow customers to pay in installments, or sell their souls and corpses after death.

When he first came to this place, Dumbledore was completely stunned by the sight of demons dancing around.

Especially some extremely evil materials and magic items, he suddenly felt that the murderous "Voldemort" Tom Riddle was simply a harmless little white rabbit in front of these creatures that really exuded evil from their bones.

The painful effects of the Mind Curse are not on the same level as the soul tormented by necromancers, demons, and demons.

In addition, if the Mind Drill Charm is used too much, it will cause the target to go crazy.

But torturing the soul has no such side effects, and it can keep the other party awake all the time.

However, after the initial shock, Dumbledore quickly adapted to the market and would come back every once in a while to buy something he was interested in.

Although he could get whatever he wanted from the mage tower's warehouse, he didn't use this privilege as much as he could, but instead relied on his alchemical talents to make money by concocting potions and crafting magical items.

After all, the debt of affection must be repaid.

The old man's strong self-esteem made him reluctant to accept too much alms.

Within a few moments, Dumbledore had spent his budget of thousands of gold coins and reluctantly left the huge market full of surprises and frightes.

It's not that he doesn't want to go on shopping, it's that the money he has with him has been spent.

As a top wizard who didn't have a strong desire for riches before, he had never been more desperate to get his hands on more money.

Because everything in the Faren Continent that involves magic is ridiculously expensive.

Without enough money to support it, even some decent experiments and magical research is a luxury.

"Ugh—looks like I'm going to have to seriously consider that man's proposal."

Standing at the gate of the market and looking at the huge transactions of tens of thousands or hundreds of thousands of gold coins from other high-level mages and plane merchants, Dumbledore sighed slightly, tasting poverty for the first time.

The best way to get rich quickly in the city is to work with powerful chambers of commerce and families.

You must know that Amm was originally the most prosperous country in terms of commerce in the continent of Faerun, and the output and categories of various commodities were the highest in the entire continent.

Now it is directly explosive, like a terrifying monster that is crazy to destroy the basic handicraft industry around and beyond, and then transform the other side into a cheap raw material production place and dumping market through a trade treaty.

There is no force in the entire Faren Continent that can withstand a dimensionality reduction attack of this scale.

Fortunately, most countries and city-states were still in primitive agrarian and feudal societies, and neither the upper nor the lower classes of the people were aware of what this meant.

Even rejoicing in the fact that all kinds of previously expensive goods are becoming cheaper and cheaper, and at the same time, the large number of orders for raw materials is also making their disposable wealth grow.

Some vested interest groups, which have made a lot of profits from it, continue to preach how advanced and developed the West Coast Empire is, how fair and just the judicial system is, how high the moral standard of the people is, and how efficient and honest the bureaucracy is, which is completely a beacon of light for the entire civilized world, and an ideal country in the minds of thinkers and philosophers.

Even trade alliances, a tool used to expand the influence of the goddess of wealth and indirectly control the economies of other countries and regions, have been touted as great innovations that can benefit everyone.

But anyone with a modicum of modern economic knowledge understands that this accumulation and growth of wealth is grossly unequal.

Although ostensibly because of the increase in productivity, everyone's life is moving in a good direction.

In reality, however, instead of narrowing, the gap between the rich and the poor is widening at an unprecedented rate.

Before the establishment of the West Coast Empire, an Amam merchant or aristocratic family could already be considered to be on the top of the list if they could have a fortune of millions of gold coins.

Even the richest top three assets are unlikely to exceed five million gold coins.

But now?

They may have been forced to hand over most of their land ownership, but they have become more powerful in the commercial world than ever before.

The funds are so abundant that they can even lend money to a country for several years, and then make high profits through the tax rights, mining rights, etc. pledged by the other party.

From production to transportation to sales, businessmen have gradually formed a competitive and joint model.

Of course, this is not because they don't want to monopolize to earn higher profits, but because they are really frightened by Zuo Si's "Tui En Order", they have to reduce their shareholding in a single chamber of commerce as much as possible and adopt a cross-shareholding strategy that casts a wide net.

In this way, although he lost absolute control, he also avoided being targeted because the family's wealth and influence were too large.

In addition, the fact that large families cannot own much land within the territory of the West Coast Empire does not mean that they cannot do so abroad.

For example, in the south of Sambia, which has been colonized by Am's economy, as well as a large area of reclaimed wasteland in the north, as well as neighboring countries such as the valley, Turmis, and Cormier, they can all get one big manor and castle after another by throwing money at it, and continue to enjoy the privileges of feudal noble lords outside.

In Dumbledore's opinion, these people were actually very similar to the pure-blood families of the wizarding world.

The only difference is that they don't develop the bad habit of arrogance, but usually behave more modestly and low-key.

However, Dumbledore obviously didn't know that the reason why he was able to get such treatment was actually inseparable from his identity.

Otherwise, with Bernard's current identity and status, how could he personally come forward for a profit of a few thousand gold coins.

Yes.

It was none other than Bernard who decisively made the first round of angel investment in Zuosi.

As a great merchant who witnessed and participated in all this, he was already one of the most powerful and high-ranking nobles in the whole of Ascatra and even the West Coast Empire, and his wealth was so large that it was difficult to calculate precisely because it was swelling by the hour.

Although his family was sparsely populated for some special reason, anyone with a modicum of knowledge knew how intimate the personal relationship between this middle-aged man, who was slightly obese, and the Emperor.

It can even be said that Bernard's every move in the business field represents the will and inclination of the emperor.

Many families have successfully completed the transformation by imitating his investment direction, and have not been eliminated by this era of drastic changes.

So from the moment Dumbledore arrived in Ascadera, Bernard knew who this old man from another world really was, and how important the other party was in Zuosi's mind.

When Dumbledore wanted to sell the potions and magical items he had made for money, he approached him.

The goal, of course, is not to make that small profit.

To be precise, Bernard never thought of making even a penny from Dumbledore, and was even mentally prepared to lose money.

In his eyes, this is a risky gamble, just like investing in Zuo Si back then.

Once successful, there will inevitably be unimaginably huge rewards.

In order to achieve this, the shrewd merchant made many plans in advance, even including an upfront investment of a full million gold coins.

Having helped Zuo Si build the Mage Tower, he knew very well how expensive magic was.

The easiest and most straightforward way to win the favor of an arcane spellcaster is to spend money at any cost.

Thankfully, Bernard now has a deep enough foundation to worry about bankruptcy if he doesn't get a timely return on his big investment.

Just as he was sitting on the sofa in the living room looking through the income and expenditure books of the last few months, thinking about how to find a breakthrough in Dumbledore, the butler suddenly walked in from the outside, first owed very gracefully, and then reported in a low voice: "My lord, your Excellency Albus Dumbledore, whom you have told to be careful, is here, do you need me to bring him here?" ”

"What?" Bernard was slightly stunned for a moment, and then quickly reacted. "Of course! Hurry up and invite him into the living room. Also have the maid prepare a portion of all the best drinks and inform the kitchen to cook a sumptuous meal. Remember, it's important to make sure that the other person feels that I'm genuine. ”

"Understood."

Hearing his master's order, the butler naturally did not dare to slack off, and immediately made all the servants in the entire mansion busy.

After about a few minutes, Dumbledore walked into the living room with the butler and greeted him with a smile, "Good afternoon, dear Mr. Bernard, I hope you don't blame me for making a surprise visit without prior notice." ”

"No, of course not, I'm too late to be happy. What would you like to drink? Tea? Coffee? Cacao? Or some aperitif? ”

Bernard was so full of joy that he almost wrote the word "hospitality" on his face.

"Bring me a cup of coffee, remember to add more sugar and honey, I like the taste of sweetness."

Dumbledore casually chose a drink.

This is both a polite response to the host's hospitality, and just enough to cushion the stomach.

After a while, a cup of fragrant coffee with a lot of cane sugar and honey was served.

Without saying a word, he waved his wand to lower the temperature of the piping hot coffee to a bearable level, and then took a big sip.

Reflecting on the bitterness and sweetness of his tongue, Dumbledore put down his glass and said in a very solemn tone, "I have thought about your last proposal for a long time, and now I have decided to give it a try. ”

"Oh? Are you sure? ”

Bernard's eyes lit up instantly, and his face was full of surprise.

"Yes.

Because I realized that you were right, mages do need a lot of money to study and study magic.

Especially to buy those rare and precious spell casting materials, a few thousand gold coins are not even a fraction of it.

To be honest, I never thought that studying magic would be such a costly affair. ”

As he said this, Dumbledore's tone was full of helplessness and self-deprecation.

He had thought that with the free books in the big library, he would be able to easily learn and integrate them at his level of magic.

But the cruel reality slapped him in the face.

Because the magic of this world is not to be released by learning spells and waving a magic wand, but to go deep into the ubiquitous web of magic and extract energy from it to shape complex spell models.

Its casting difficulty is simply an order of magnitude higher than that of wizards.

Dumbledore could guarantee that nine and a half out of ten Hogwarts students who were mischievous and didn't pay attention would be brutally eliminated during their apprenticeship.

And this knockout means death!

He himself witnessed a careless apprentice snooping on a powerful demon during an out-of-body expedition without protecting himself.

As a result, the apprentice was instantly summoned by the demon in reverse and dismantled into eight pieces, and the scene was bloody and cruel to the point of suffocation.

What's even more terrifying is that the apprentice's soul has also been captured by demons, and it is estimated that he has now turned into a lowest-level abyss larva.

Therefore, if a mage wants to gain access to the deeper magic web, he must do all kinds of dangerous experiments to understand the magic web, control the magic web, and combine it with the magic power in his body.

It is a pipe dream to achieve this goal by relying solely on the theoretical knowledge recorded in books.

That's why by summoning demons in the same way, archmages can control them and force them to work for themselves, while apprentices are often killed by summoned demons.

However, it is precisely this extremely high learning difficulty and danger that makes Dumbledore feel unprecedented excitement and challenge.

Compared to the overall comfortable magical world of the earth, this is the place he longs for and pursues.

Just as Bernard was about to say something to shift the conversation to cooperation, a portal suddenly opened in the living room.

Next Second......

A lich with a biting chill suddenly appears out of nowhere.

He didn't talk any nonsense, and said bluntly: "Albus Dumbledore, Lord Soth wants to meet with you, I don't know if you are free now. ”

"See me? Where is he? ”

Dumbledore's attention was drawn instantly.

Because since he came to this world, he has always wanted to talk to Zuo Si face-to-face, but he has never found a chance.

To be precise, the latter never took the time to return to the Faren Continent.

Without thinking, the lich replied, "Lord Soth is in another universe right now. If you agree, I can take you there now. ”

Hearing this, Dumbledore immediately turned around and gave Bernard an apologetic expression: "I'm very sorry, I think the cooperation between us will be delayed a little." ”

"It doesn't matter. It's important to get down to business, so don't let your majesty wait too long. ”

The merchant made a casual gesture with great interest.

He undoubtedly knew very well that he would never be able to participate in such a thing, so he simply didn't bother to ask.

In this way, the lich that suddenly appeared took Dumbledore to activate the interdimensional teleportation magic again, and instantly came to the ninth level of Bato's hell.

Because this is the only place where there is a giant portal to the universe where the planet Azeroth is located.

"This ...... Here it is?!!! ”

Dumbledore was obviously in Hell for the first time, staring wide-eyed at the huge cyberpunk city in the distance, and the vast army of demons next to it, and the whole person fell into a complete state of stupe.

In particular, it is recorded in many books that the terrible Deep Hell Purgatory that can destroy a country by oneself alone is so many that it is impossible to count at this moment.

"Don't be surprised, they are only a small part of the Devil's Legion under the command of Lord Soth, and they are on their way to the battlefield as ordered. Let's go, through this giant portal is another universe. ”

With that, the lich pulled out an emblem representing his identity and handed it to the devil guards guarding the portal.

The latter immediately raised his hand to signal for clearance.

Otherwise, anyone who dares to approach will be immediately besieged by them without mercy.

After all, there is another universe on the other side of the portal, and many forces want to send people over to investigate and see if they can get some benefit from it.

When passing through the shimmering blue curtain of light, the first thing that catches your eye is the terrifying battlefield that has been going on and on Mount Hyjal.

Whether it was the earth-shattering shouts of slaughter, or the destructive power of devastating weapons and magic to wipe out thousands of lives in an instant, Dumbledore's spirit and heart were violently shocked.

As a centenarian who had lived through two world wars, he once thought it was the most cruel, bloodiest, and most horrific scene he had ever seen in his life.

But now he knew he was wrong, and he was very wrong.

Compared to the horror wars in which hundreds of thousands of people died in a matter of minutes, the two world wars can only be considered a nursery.

Especially those mountains of corpses and sea of blood, the number can definitely be used as a basic unit in billions.

But even so, both sides did not have the slightest intention of making concessions, and they were still sending troops to consume each other.

No matter how many casualties there are, the gap will be filled in the next second.

"How, isn't it shocking?"

The lich was obviously satisfied with the other party's reaction at the moment, and asked meaningfully.

"This is the war that Soth is on?"

Dumbledore only felt his mouth dry, his body sweating uncontrollably, and his heart beating at least twice as fast as usual.

Because the picture you see is too shocking.

This is a thousand, ten thousand times more exaggerated than the hell described by many religions.

But the lich smiled and shook his head, "No, the war I mentioned earlier is actually over. It's only a trivial clash now, far worse than it used to be. ”

"Little Clash ......"

Dumbledore gasped, suddenly realizing that his previous estimate of Zuo Si was still too conservative.

But because of this, I am looking forward to this meeting even more.

After all, he has too many questions and puzzles to get an accurate answer.

The Lich didn't stay long on the battlefield of Mount Hyjal, quickly unleashing a teleportation spell and disappearing in place.

In the blink of an eye, the two of them had traveled from the continent of Kalimdor to the snow-covered Storm Cliffs.

From afar, Dumbledore saw Zuosi, who maintained his human form, and the huge red dragon standing across from him.

"Ahh Dear Headmaster, please wait a little longer, and I will soon be able to make a deal with Queen Alexstrasza and the Red Dragon Legion she leads. ”

Zuo Si obviously noticed Dumbledore's arrival and took the initiative to say hello.

"It's okay, I'm not in a hurry."

Dumbledore hurriedly waved his wand and blessed himself with a magic spell that could withstand the cold wind and ultra-low temperatures.

After all, he was wearing only a thin robe, and in the cold wind of minus fifty or sixty degrees Celsius, he was basically no different from being naked.

Without magical protection, it only takes a few minutes to freeze to death due to hypothermia.

For Dumbledore who suddenly appeared, Alexstrasza was undoubtedly quite curious.

Because she couldn't understand why Zuo Si would call such a weak human headmaster.

And the attitude is very polite and reveals a hint of respect.
