Chapter 110 Cooperation of Gods (Please collect)
The night is dark.
A wooden boat cuts through the darkness and heads towards the depths of the black swamp.
A lantern hangs on the front end of the wooden boat, and its faint halo illuminates the surroundings, guiding the way forward.
Karl controls the hand of the secondary mage to push the canoe forward.
behind him.
‘Angel Remiller’ put his hands behind his back, looking into the distance with a blazing white halo in his eyes.
Angel!
A real angel!
This is an existence that only appears in the story.
Carl never thought that one day he would be in the same boat with a real angel.
The pure aura surging from the other party's body is vast and endless, and seems to have the power to heal everything.
Second order?
Level 3?
It is certain that it is an existence far beyond the first level!
"Dear Angel."
After the initial surprise and confusion, Karl calmed down a little and tentatively asked:
"What do you want to see the gray-robed wizard for?"
"Mortal." Remiller's expression remained unchanged:
"This is not a question you should ask."
Um?
This angel...
Seems a little arrogant.
He could tell that the other person was not angry, but he just didn't seem to be used to communicating with other people.
So replace it with indifference and rejection.
"Will Catherine be okay?" Karl asked again:
"As far as I know, gods and angels live in the Kingdom of God and come with the help of the bodies of believers, which will consume the life force of believers."
"Huh?" Remiller looked surprised and looked sideways:
"You know a lot."
"Humph!"
'She' hummed softly:
"Arrogant unbelievers who dare to pry into the realm of God will be nailed to the wall of unbelievers and suffer endless torture after death."
"Dear angel." Carl sighed:
"I am a wizard apprentice. I pursue knowledge and truth and am not bound by gods."
"Well..."
"There seems to be some kind of agreement between wizards and gods in ancient times. The two will not interfere with each other. My soul should not be able to go to the Wall of the Unbelieving."
Remiller said nothing.
‘She’ doesn’t know this. In ‘her’ mind, gods are omnipotent existences.
Made a pact with a wizard?
This is true.
Could it be that
God will give in?
Like what was explained this time?
‘Her’ eyes flashed with a trace of trance, and then were filled with a blazing white halo, reaffirming her belief.
‘Everything is a test of the Lord. ’
"As long as I don't do anything, your friend will be fine." After thinking about it, Remiller said coldly:
"Maybe she wants me to do something so that I can enter God earlier. Country, serve the Lord God."
"In this way..." Karl nodded slowly:
“That’s why you asked me to take you to see the gray robe wizard, because Catherine’s body can hardly support you to do more things.”
“The reason why Catherine’s body can Did you come because she is a fanatical believer in the Lord of the Dawn?"
"If your faith is not pious enough, you can't let the angels come?"
"Mortal!" Remiller's face turned cold:
"Are you challenging my patience?"
"Things related to gods are not something that a mortal should understand, even if they are just guesses!"
After a pause, 'she' said again:
"Not even wizards!"
"...Okay." Seeing the other party's tone becoming more and more serious, Karl could only sigh helplessly:
"I won't ask anymore."
The swamp mire is rippled, and the invisible force pushes the canoe towards the thick fog.
Not long after.
Two figures appeared in front.
“Stop!”
The two of them stretched out their hands to stop:
“This is the residence of the gray-robed wizard, outsiders are prohibited from approaching.”
The Great Knight !
The aura on the two people in front was very huge, and the aura of life was like a huge fire candle. They were two great knights.
It is estimated that only second-level wizards are qualified to let the great knights serve as guards.
“You two.”
Karl straightened up, stretched out his hand and pointed back:
“This...”
"Let them come in." Before Karl could explain, a strange voice came from the island ahead:
"The mentor is waiting for them."
"Yes."
The two great knights responded and got out of the way.
Karl tied the canoe to the stone piles on the shore, and set foot on the island belonging to the gray-robed wizard Addison with Remiller.
Not far to go.
My eyes suddenly lit up.
Countless firefly-like creatures were flying all over the sky, and a dignified woman in a wizard's robe was waiting.
Official wizard Marianne.
The only disciple of the gray robe wizard Addison.
Karl had no contact with this wizard, but he had seen her portrait in the alliance station.
"Angel..."
Marian must have seen an angel for the first time. Her somewhat complicated eyes fell on Remiller, and she stretched out her hand and said:
"Please follow I’ll come.”
The gray-robed wizard Addison sat cross-legged at the root of a big tree, his figure seemed even thinner than a few years ago.
"Angel."
Looking at Remiller, a green light flashed in Addison's eyes:
"The last time an angel came, I remember it was more than sixty years ago. I am just a bystander.”
“Dear Angel, what should I call you?”
Even a second-ring wizard must marvel at the vast energy of the angel. Beyond the second level.
The angel in front of me is no ordinary angel.
"Remiller." Lemiller held his neck high and said in a clear voice:
"Are you the gray robe wizard Addison?"
"The aura of decay on your body, It's disgusting. If possible, I really don't want to come down to see you."
"Huh..." Addison chuckled, the wrinkles on his face that looked like bark trembled, and asked:
"So, what is the reason why you must come down?"
"This is a place abandoned by gods, with a barrier that weakens divine power. Of course you will be very uncomfortable with it."
"Hmph. !” Remiller hummed:
“Sariye wants you to take action against Cologne’s army”
“Sariye?” Addison narrowed his eyes, of course he had heard of it. This name is written in the scriptures.
Archangel Sariel!
The strongest angel and guardian under the Lord of Dawn.
"According to the agreement between wizards and gods, neither party can interfere in the war between mortals."
"So..."
"I refuse!"< br>
Carl mused.
He also knew something about the battle situation on the front line. It was said that the coalition forces of the three kingdoms of Gondor, Sark, and Zaksik were defeated on the battlefield.
Cologne's army continued to advance.
It seems that the situation is worse than he understood. Even the angels from the divine realm are coming to the world to find help.
I’m afraid,
It has reached a very urgent situation.
It is very likely that without strong support, some kingdoms will perish as a result, otherwise angels will not visit.
But are ordinary people’s beliefs so important to gods?
“According to the ancient agreement, gods and supernatural beings cannot interfere in wars between mortals.”
Remiller spoke:
"But you are still mortals, at least..."
'She' pointed at Karl:
"He is!"
"You mean..." Ah Disen thought for a while and said slowly:
"Formal wizards cannot take action, but wizard apprentices can. This does not violate the original agreement."
In fact, there have been wizard apprentices on the battlefield for a long time.
“Yes!” Remiller raised his head:
“The fire thieves in Cologne are wizard apprentices. If they can take action, you can also take action.”
“ As a citizen of the kingdom, we have the obligation to help when the kingdom is in danger."
"Heh..." Addison chuckled:
"Dear Angel, His Highness Remiller."
"We could have avoided this war. I believe that the Cologne people would not take the initiative to provoke the wizard. Why should we participate? Don't use the so-called loyalty as an excuse, the wizard Only be true to the truth.”
“Truth?” Lemuel looked disdainful:
“Sariye said that you only have interests in your eyes, and you are a group of evil people who do not understand loyalty and faith.”
“So…”
"As long as enough benefits are given, you will take action."
"This..." Addison shook his head slightly, but did not refute:
"It's not unreasonable. But what is your bargaining chip and the price? What is it?”
“Star Gate!” Remiller finally said the key to this trip:
“Don’t you always want to build a star gate to go to the real wizard world? God’s Domain can give you the Star Gate.”
?
As soon as these words came out.
Not only Addison’s eyes lit up, but even Karl, who had been listening quietly from behind, couldn’t help but raise his head.
Stargate!
One of the purposes of the establishment of the Swamp Alliance is to gather the power of many wizards to build a star gate.
But Star Gate belongs to the third level category.
Even if the second-level wizard Addison takes the lead and unites many wizards, it is still unknown whether it can be completed.
Even if it can be done.
I don’t know how many years it will take.
Now,
There is an excellent opportunity to quickly acquire the Star Gate. I ask, which wizard can not be tempted?
“But this star gate is just a one-way passage. You can leave, but you cannot come back.”
Lemiel continued:
“In return, you Need to help Gondor repel the Cologne attack."
One-way passage?
Karl understands the thoughts of the Lord of the Dawn. After all, wizards are also an unstable factor for gods.
It doesn’t really matter.
If given a choice, no wizard or wizard apprentice would want to stay here. The dazzling light of the gods obscures the star realm, almost cutting off the supernatural power.
Scarce and barren resources have caused too many talented wizard apprentices to lose their potential to take a step closer.
"Repulse?"
Addison shook his head slightly:
"Remiller, you may not know how powerful Cologne is, but the battle situation on the front line is clear."
"Without the intervention of gods and official wizards, Under such circumstances, it would be too difficult to completely defeat Cologne. "Big."
"Even if the Swamp Alliance is willing to take action, it may not be able to achieve this goal. After all, there are wizards in Cologne." Angry:
"You're not willing to take action?"
"No!" Addison sighed, seeming a little helpless at the other party's straightforwardness, so he had to speak directly:
"If you can set a goal, or someone If you have some data, I can consider joining."
"For example?" Ray Miller raised his eyebrows.
“For example, kill Cologne’s vanguard general and surround and kill several earls and grand dukes.” Addison said:
"Before taking action, I hope to sign a contract in the name of the ancient gods and wizards, so that we can both be protected."
"..." Remiller obviously lacked experience in bargaining with others. I don’t even understand the so-called target value.
After thinking for a moment, ‘she’ waved and threw out a parchment.
"I can't make a decision. In order to facilitate subsequent contact, you can write your thoughts on it so that Sariel can see it."
"Well..." Adi Sen took the parchment and nodded:
"That's fine!"
"The gray-robed wizard." Remiller looked directly at Addison, his eyes full of disgust:
"Your heart is full of evil, and there is only evil in your eyes. Interest, I don’t like today’s conversation.”
“So...”
She stretched out a finger and tapped it lightly:
"You will be punished!"
Whoosh!
A flash of white light passed through the void and pierced Addison's heart. His body trembled and his spirit instantly withered.
At the same time.
‘Katherine’ body softened and collapsed to the ground. Her beautiful black hair instantly turned white, and wrinkles appeared on her smooth and tight skin.
Karl hurried forward and couldn't help but frown after checking.
Vitality!
Catherine lost more than half of her life force. If she had lived for fifty years before.
Now,
Live up to ten years!
The angel Remiller who was attached to her disappeared and must have returned to the Kingdom of God.
"Mentor!"
Marian also came to the gray robe wizard, with a worried voice:
"How are you?"
"It's okay." Addison waved his hand with some difficulty:
"It's the second-level divine magic life robbery, which means it will only shorten your life by a few decades, and you won't die for the time being."
"Huh..."
He took a deep breath and looked at Karl:
"Young man, I remember you, the disciple of the pharmacist Adolf, we meet again."< br>
"Yes." Karl nodded:
"I met my senior three years ago, and I didn't expect that he would still remember me."
"Haha..." Addison chuckled:
"From the moment I embarked on the journey of being a wizard, the only thing I am proud of is my memory. Don't tell outsiders what happened today."
"Yes." Karl lowered his head:
"I understand."
If the Swamp Alliance joins the war between Cologne and other kingdoms, it will be a big event and have far-reaching consequences.
No matter how the subsequent conversation goes, it must be kept confidential.
*
*
*
When Catherine woke up, it was already early the next morning.
She did not show much sadness about the changes in her body, but quickly accepted it calmly.
“Being able to use my body to pronounce God’s will is a supreme honor for a believer.”
Catherine knelt on her knees and looked up to the sky , his eyes were red, and he was too excited to speak.
"As for dying..."
"Who wouldn't want to go to the Kingdom of God one day earlier?"
Karl was speechless.
Indeed.
Being able to become a vessel for the coming of angels, her faith has been tested, and her soul will most likely go to the Kingdom of God after death.
Death,
may not be a bad thing for Catherine.
"Well..."
Touching his chin, Karl thought thoughtfully:
"Will the gray-robed wizard agree to the conditions of the Lord of the Morning and let the swamp Alliance joins the war? ”
His guess is that it is very likely!
The offer offered by the Lord of the Dawn is too tempting to refuse.
Stargate!
Without the help of the Lord of the Dawn, it is still unknown whether the Swamp Alliance can build the Star Gate.
As long as you agree, you can get a ready-made star gate.
Not to mention that official wizards will not get involved. There is no danger, and even if there is danger, they will fight tooth and nail.
‘The conditions and details should be discussed next, but in the end an agreement will be reached and the people of the Alliance will join the war. ’
‘So…’
‘The prices of various potions and magical items will increase! ’
Karl’s eyes lit up and he hurriedly said goodbye and left.
…………
Alliance station.
Turn left to the second house at No. 7 Tung Tree.
Karl found Althea and said directly:
"When will the nearest auction start? I want to sell that ring as soon as possible."
"There will be an auction the day after tomorrow." Althea looked surprised:
"I have been working for a long time, and the heat has risen. Almost everyone knows that a damaged inherited witchcraft is about to be sold, but it is still It’s not at its peak, so you must sell it now.”
If you sell it now, you may lose a lot of magic stones.
“Yes!” Karl nodded heavily, took out another piece of paper and handed it over:
“Use the magic stone you got from selling the ring to buy these things for me, as much as you want, If I don’t have enough magic stones, I’ll collect more.”
"It seems you are in a hurry!" Althea smiled, took the paper and glanced at it, her eyes changed slightly:
"These things..."
"They are all wizards There are so many necessities for apprentice fighting, you are Do you want to fight with others?”
“You don’t have to worry about it.” Karl waved his hand:
“I need to get a lot of supplies as soon as possible, no later than half a month, can you do it? ”
"Yes, yes..." Althea hesitated for a moment, then nodded:
"Leave it to me!"
"Okay." Karl said with a smile on his face:
"As soon as possible."
Watching Karl leave in a hurry, Althea looked confused and looked at the purchase list in her hand again.
‘What is he going to do with so many supplies? ’
The other side.
“Karl.”
Sibel, dressed in smart clothes, came to the tavern and waved to the figure waiting quietly in the corner:
“You are looking for me. ”
"Yeah."
Karl turned back:
"Sit."
Some close-fitting clothing made Sibel's exaggerated figure appear, and the wide cloak whirred behind his back. Sound.
After sitting down.
Sibel poured himself a glass of wine and put it directly into his mouth:
“What do you want from me?”
Karl sat up straight, waved his hand lightly, and cast a spell around him. He cast a zero-ring magic silencer to prevent the sound from spreading.
Sibel raised his eyebrows upon seeing this.
So cautious?
At this time, there was no one else in the tavern except the owner, who was lying on the counter and sleeping soundly.
"I have a deal I want to discuss with you. If I go in and out quickly, I can make at least 30% profit within a month. Are you interested."
"30%?" Sibel smiled. :
"Why didn't I know that you still have the talent for business, but if we can really guarantee 30% profit, I will definitely do it."
"That's good." Karl said with both hands Shoot:
"Now we have reached a preliminary consensus, and we will share the profit half and half."
"Wait a minute." Sibel raised his hand:
"Although you are mine Junior brother, I believe in you, but it also depends on whether this business can be done.”
“Of course.” Karl leaned forward and said in a low voice:
“Yesterday, there was an angel. Come to Catherine ”
"Huh?"
"Ah!"
"..."
Sibel blinked, his expression changing back and forth, surprise, confusion, panic and even confusion:< br>
“What did you say? I didn’t hear it clearly. Can you say it again?”
"Yesterday, an angel came to Catherine. You should know that she is now a believer in the Lord of the Dawn." Karl whispered:
"Listen to what I have to say and ask again. Last night... ”
Not long after.
Sibel finally accepted the fact that the angel had arrived, his brows furrowed and his face showed contemplation.
“So…”
"Do you think the gray robe wizard will agree to the angel's request and let the Swamp Alliance intervene in the war between mortals?"
"Yes." Carl nodded:
"What do you think?"
“I think so.” Sibel’s expression was complicated:
“That’s a star gate!”
"Now they are probably discussing the details of the agreement, and we will eventually participate in it."
"Yes." Karl said:
"When the news spreads, the prices of various supplies will It's going up a lot. You know a lot of people. Can you borrow some magic stones?"
"That's right!" Sibel's eyes lit up:
"If we fight with Cologne, the combat supplies will definitely be huge. up.”
"Karl!"
She said urgently:
"I will collect the money, and you are responsible for hoarding supplies. We must take this opportunity to make a fortune, but don't be too ostentatious, so as not to attract others. Attention."
Karl nodded.
This is why he approached Sibel.
Over the past three years, Sibel has made many friends and is one of the elders of the young organization 'Secret Society of the Stars'.
The magic stones she can borrow far exceed those of Karl.
In the following time, Carl quietly purchased supplies through Olseya, shops and street stalls.
Sibel is very awesome.
She even mortgaged the two people's islands and shares in Hetty's company, plus the magic stones borrowed from others, the total number turned out to be more than 1,500.
One thousand five hundred magic stones!
This is a fortune that would make even formal wizards jealous.
Seven days later.
“Other people are already quietly hoarding supplies in the market. Althea must have guessed something and is also hoarding.”
Karl counted the nearest goods and shook his head. ：
"We don't have many magic stones in our hands anymore, and the prices of materials have begun to rise. It doesn't make much sense to continue purchasing."
"Forget it." Sibel's eyes were bright and he was full of energy:< br>
"Modi Li has also learned the news. His mentor is an official wizard. It seems that the gray-robed wizard has almost reached an agreement."
"Yes." Karl said:
“Next…”
"Just waiting for the price increase to ship!"
…………
Half a month later.
An inexplicable atmosphere began to appear in the Swamp Alliance.
The wizard apprentices at the bottom did not know what was going on, but they noticed that the prices of various supplies were increasing.
Those who are related have already heard that envoys from the Kingdom of Gondor came to Black Swamp and reached some kind of agreement with the gray-robed wizard.
Price increase.
It officially begins!
…………
Karl doesn’t have to worry about shipping. The goods he stocks are all necessary materials for wizards to fight.
As long as you take it out, someone will definitely buy it.
Orthea is responsible for these, with Sibel assisting.
“The price is going crazy!”
This day.
Sibel found Karl, sweating on his forehead, and poured several mouthfuls of water into his mouth before he could calm down his breathing.
"When we got the goods, the price was relatively cheap because of the large quantity. Now the profit has exceeded 50%."
"But I have observed that there seems to be some movement within the alliance, and I am afraid that they will intervene in the market. We may even arrest a few people who disrupt the market and treat them as Typical treatment.”
“Then take action as soon as possible.” Karl narrowed his eyes:
“It doesn’t matter if you earn less.”
“That’s what I mean.” He nodded, cast an admiring look at him, and said:
"One more thing."
"The gray robe wizard has reached an agreement with the envoy from the Kingdom of Gondor. We are responsible for solving some generals and nobles in Cologne. This time everyone will be dispatched, even you must force Accept the mission, and there will be a mission dispatched soon."
Karl's expression was indifferent. He had already expected this. It is impossible for anyone to ignore this matter that is related to the future of all wizard apprentices. Take advantage.
“I can’t act with you this time.”
Sibel looked embarrassed:
"In the Alliance Exploration Team, I have several teammates who work well together, and I have to set out with the members of the Star Secret Society."
"The key is..."
"We chose one It’s too dangerous to take a legendary knight as a target.”
“Legendary knight?” Karl frowned:
“It’s too risky!”
Although it is said that senior wizard apprentices can kill legends, those are senior wizard apprentices like Adolf who have accumulated decades of experience.
Even so.
The chance of success is still low.
What's more, each of Cologne's legendary knights has a high position, and there must be guards and even fire thieves around them.
Even a high-level wizard apprentice was sent to death in the past.
"Don't worry."
Sibel pursed his lips and chuckled:
"Since we dare to choose a legendary knight as our target, we are naturally well prepared to spend all the magic we have earned in the past two days. For every stone, you can also buy some good magic items, which will be used when the time comes."
Karl nodded slowly.
Please give me a monthly ticket! ! !
