Upon entering the duke's study-and-reception room, the king stopped to look up at the ceiling and beams of the study.

He ignored the duke, who was already sitting behind his desk, and the two princes on either side of the stand. Of course, he ignored the white-bearded old men who sat on several sofas in front of his desk.

"The magic traps in this place are pretty good." He said.

"Okay?" The fat mage, who was sitting on the sofa opposite the duke's desk, said angrily, "This is my handiwork! ”

The king looked at the mage and asked suspiciously, "So?" It means that you are a crappy mage. ”

The mage blew his beard in anger, and the peacock feathers on his hat trembled.

The king ignored the other party's expression and observed the other party's clothes: "This dress is the style of the Catala Desert Kingdom." You've come a long way to get here. Have you been an advisor to the Duke for a long time? ”

The fat mage was stunned, his lips trembled for a few seconds before he roared: "I am the court archmage of the Kosania Empire!" ”

Wang: "Oh. ”

The archmage was stunned, the feathers on his head indicating that he was now so angry that his body was trembling. Probably he had never met such a mage apprentice who would not care when he heard his title.

He gritted his teeth and said, "I'm going to use the Banshee's howl now!" Suffer death. ”

The king looked at him and blinked.

The court archmage stood up and pointed his finger at the king, while his hand groped in the spellcasting kit: "I'm going to use it!" ”

Wang: "I've been told that you can only cast the Eight Rings spell. The Banshee's Howl is the Nine Rings. ”

"I, I've broken through!"

"Really? Then I will have to warn you," the king's expression suddenly became serious, "the Banshee's howl will kill those who come near you first. So you want to kill the Elector of Kosania, the Duke of Landon and all his heirs? ”

"What?" The Archmage was taken aback, "Yes...... Is that so? ”

Wang frowned slightly: "You don't know? Ah, I see, you were bragging about intimidating me just now! You don't really know anything about the spell of Banshee's Howl, because you haven't read the spell book that records it, and you haven't seen a scroll. ”

Archmage: "You...... You are talking nonsense! How could you, a mage apprentice, know such a legendary spell! I've read books! ”

Wang: "It's useless to just read a book, you can't learn a legendary spell just by reading a book, you have to have the knowledge and experience to understand it." Of course, there must be enough strength to support it. （*）”

"Hmph, what can you know as an apprentice mage?"

Wang: "I know all the spells, including the ...... I can't cast"

"Ahem." Elizabeth's sudden voice prevented the king from continuing to expose herself to the inability to use the protective system.

The king immediately understood: "Oh, understood. I'm familiar with all spells anyway. ”

"Bragging! How could you possibly be familiar with legendary spells! ”

"Of course I'm familiar with it, but there's still a gap between familiarity and true understanding, so I'm going to leave the Mage Tower for a trip."

"Humph! The mage tower in the countryside, I want to hear what your teacher's name is! With that, the archmage sat back on the couch and put on a lofty posture.

Wang said the teacher's name.

The eyes of everyone present widened, and even the court archmage, who had always been hostile to the king, forgot his suspicions for a moment. After all, for them, this is the moment when the legend shines into reality.

But the archmage still reacted: "Impossible! Before the establishment of the Kosanian Empire, he had already left his native plane to travel the multiverse! ”

At this time, Elizabeth interjected: "But we met the legendary archmage through the scroll of the spell invented by his teacher. ”

"It's all an illusion! Her Royal Highness the princess is also a spellcaster, and she will be deceived by this charlatan! The court archmage was furious, and even began to point at Elizabeth and speak, "It seems that your education is not very good!" ”

The old man, who was sitting on the sofa at the far end of the room, spoke: "Your Excellency, Your Highness the Princess is just a warlock, and like me, of course we are not as smart and wise as you. ”

It seems that this is the mentor of Her Royal Highness the Princess.

Using the elimination method, the old mage with a normal body shape is left, which is the duke's original family mage, and remember that the spell casting ability should be the seven rings.

The princess seemed to be angry with the court archmage and her teacher, and she stepped forward: "I can still distinguish this kind of thing!" The magic aura on that scroll is so strong that ordinary people can see it, and it is definitely a powerful magic item! ”

Court Archmage: "One of the magic of the illusion system can do this, 'Changing Aura'!" ”

The princess took another step forward and glared at the archmage aggressively, and the aura she exuded made people sigh that she was worthy of being the heir to the position of elector.

Wang: "Wait a minute, Your Highness, don't be in a hurry. ”

"I'm in a hurry!" The princess glared back at the king, "The danger of the end of the world is coming!" Shut up and let me speak! I'm more familiar with the court! ”

Wang: "Reasonable. ”

Then he really shut his mouth and took a step back.

The one of the two princes without armor spoke: "You found a cat and found out the danger of the end of the world?" ”

Wang: "And dogs." ”

Elizabeth turned her head to stare at him, "Listen, I can accept your casual interjection, but in such a formal court meeting, you are very rude, and I will hate you." ”

Wang looked a little embarrassed, and he continued to take a step back and shut his mouth.

The prince who was not wearing armor laughed: "I think you guys are having a good time, yes, now we can marry a legendary mage's mage tower, so what is this annihilation crisis?" What are the mini-games you play as a couple? ”

Elizabeth: "It's a real catastrophe!" As the legendary mage told us, the first stage is the disappearance of small animals, and then some small animal aberrations will be found. In the second phase, cheap healing scrolls and potions will appear on the market. In the third phase, the undead and the lich will begin to assemble. ”

Elizabeth's eldest brother, a strong man in armor standing to his father's right hand, frowned: "The first stage is fine, isn't the second stage a good thing?" And why does the appearance of cheap healing scrolls cause undead to gather? ”

Elizabeth said resolutely: "Because those undead creatures can't survive anymore, they have begun to gather to eliminate the mastermind behind the scenes!" ”

The court archmage laughed, and everyone else in the room smiled more or less.

The court archmage opened his hands: "Did you hear that!" The undead are fighting to save the world against evil enemies! They didn't destroy the world together! ”

At this time, the old duke, who had been looking at Elizabeth with kind eyes, spoke: "Elizabeth, you are too whimsical. ”

The Duke looked much older than the king had imagined, and by his appearance he was supposed to be Elizabeth at the age of fifty or even fifty-five, and I don't know whether to say that he should be old and strong or disrespectful.

The old man continued, "Why do you trust this archmage so much?" He may just be a liar with a name. ”

Elizabeth: "Because that spell looks legendary!" And there is also the king, his disciple, you don't know how well he is trained! When we ventured, he could tell immediately what spell his enemy had cast! ”

The old man shook his head: "Elizabeth, my dear daughter, this alone will not convince me. It's like the mage brother over there has always wanted to talk, so it's better for you to let him talk about it. ”

Elizabeth wanted to stomp her feet, but suddenly she looked at the king, stopped stamping, and said directly to the king, "Try it!" ”

Wang: "Okay. We were flanked in front and back by about 50 goblins and seventy or eighty or more kobolds underground, goblins with goblin war mages and kobolds with kobold warlocks. The battle led to a fire on the second basement floor, and we did not extinguish the fire when the situation was urgent......

"I think there are two possible developments of the fire, one is to extinguish all the oxygen in the tunnel, and the second is to eventually cause a methane explosion in the air, which is not exploded now.

"This means that you can find more than 50 corpses of goblins and kobolds in the underground battle scenes, as well as traces of spell battles. I don't think even if you don't think about the apocalypse, there's such a big group of evil creatures underground—oh, it's two, and they're going to cooperate with each other, maybe not enough to be an apocalypse, but it's definitely enough to be a crisis in Landon. ”

The eldest prince was speechless: "You're right, mage. Father, I am going to organize an army to sweep the underground again, and at the same time I have to hire adventurers, although I have been running our official chamber of commerce, but the chamber of commerce alone can no longer afford such a large amount of gold coins, the chamber of commerce will go bankrupt. ”

The old duke sighed: "Write a note to the housekeeper, and he will tell the bookkeeper." ”

The second prince touched the decorative saber on his waist and looked at his sister's mage with little interest.

Wang continued: "Second, we have found the corpse of a mutated cat, and if I want to see the druids, they should be able to prove that this is not a natural mutation, and that there must be some unknown evil underground. ”

The Eldest Prince: "We don't have a cat ......"

"Put things together, Your Highness." The king interrupted the prince, "We went underground because we were looking for cats, and then we were attacked by the combined legion of kobolds and goblins, and after the attack was repulsed, our magic and physical strength were almost exhausted, and an elite squad suddenly came out. The enemy's eyeliner also jumps back at this time. ”

The eldest prince silently touched his chin and fell into deep thought.

Wang: "You can doubt my teacher's danger of annihilation, but for Random City, this is also a crisis that cannot be ignored.

"On top of that, there's one more important thing: your precious daughter was almost killed underground."

Elizabeth: "It's true. ”

Old Duke: "Why didn't you just say this, but to provoke His Excellency the Court Archmage?" ”

Archmage: "And bragging!" How could you be a disciple of that person, they were all legendary characters from at least two hundred years ago! ”

Wang: "Because I am his disciple." I have an easy way to prove it. Although my teacher will not interfere personally, it is still okay for me to fake the tiger. ”

As he spoke, the king took out the dimensional bag.
