Chapter 789 The Exile
More importantly, due to Tubek's disgraceful past, he has actually been excluded from the core circle of the Thousand Sons.
Tubek was once an ordinary warrior in the Thousand Sons Legion. After the Legion fled to the Wizard Star, he was one of the first members to join the Ahriman Cabal, helping it cast "Ahriman's The Scarlet Letter" spell.
After the Scarlet Letter spell failed, the entire Cabal, including Tubek and Ahriman, were permanently expelled from the Legion.
After leaving the Legion, Tubek joined Amon's war gang - the "Brotherhood of Dust". The next time he met Ahriman was on a captured battleship "Son of Titan". It was thousands of years after he left the Legion.
The "Dust Brotherhood" has been searching for traces of Ahriman. Tubek then captured the "Son of Titan" with the Screamer. He initially wanted Ahriman to leave with him, but after Ahriman refused, he asked the other party Casts a psychic blast.
Ahriman deflected Tubek's psychic energy and sent him into the Warp along with the Screamer's flagship.
After drifting in the subspace for an unknown number of years, Tubek returned to the Wizard Planet by accident for unknown reasons. At this time, it had been more than eight thousand years since he left.
Although he was not exiled again, he lost all status and became a marginalized person who was not much higher than the Scarlet Letter.
And he has been looking for opportunities to return to the original body.
This time he came with an opportunity.
Unlike the members of the wizarding group who wore armored robes similar to Magnus's, the dervish's plain clothes covered Tubek's figure. The shadow of the wide hood hid his face, so that no one could know the joy, anger, or sorrow on his face. Only a long and narrow pale bird's beak poked out from the shadow - there was even a bird-shaped one under his hood. mask.
"Great Master! I need to see you for something!"
Tubek's tone was filled with irrepressible excitement, and he brought a piece of news that could change everything.
“It’s me!”
He shouted loudly:
"Tubek!"
Magnus was staring at the world above him in trance, and did not hear Tubek's excited shouting.
Suddenly, the Red Devil stretched out the war blade in his hand and hooked the scattered thunder in the air, cutting the arc branches scattered in all directions like cutting soft metal. Magnus's blade shape changed like its owner. Wanqian, now it has turned into a cleverly designed long-handled scimitar made of gilded gold wire, which complements the original body's luxurious armor.
The scimitar in his hand danced like a paddle, breaking the current and creating ripples.
Tubek can definitely win Magnus's attention by casting spells, but this behavior is undoubtedly a great disrespect to the master. If he is patient enough, maybe Magnus will respond to his call sooner or later - but now He doesn't have that much time.
This news is extremely urgent and cannot be delayed.
Tubek waved his crooked staff and gently pushed the wizard member closest to him.
The wizard was wearing a luxurious robe, with a snake-headed scepter leaning in his hand. Tubek pretended to rush past him.
“Yo yo yo, this is not Tubek.”
Suddenly, the wizard blocked his way.
"How many years have you not seen this shit? Go away, the Red Lord no longer has time to listen to your crazy stories." "Sara."
Tubek's response invaded the golden mask on the wizard's face, poking straight into his soul. No matter how superb Sharo's tricks and skills were, he was still not as good as Tubek. If he wanted to read his mind, he wouldn't. Much more troublesome than reading the cuneiform text on his armor.
Sharo's body was full of paranoia, like an infected wound bursting with pus.
"I have plenty of time, but you don't necessarily have time."
Tubek sarcastically said:
"Why don't you go home quickly and congratulate your assistant?"
"What are you talking nonsense about?"
Sara, who pretended to be contemptuous, could not hide the worries in his heart. Many centuries had passed since Tubek was expelled from the wizarding group, but he was always there Kanata monitors everyone's every move, tracks their victories and defeats, and tries his best to understand their weaknesses and desires.
The wizards' desires are mostly the same - either to harness the energy extracted from the great waves, or to conquer the world in the name of Magnus, or a combination of the two.
But their weaknesses are varied and never the same.
Tubek shrugged, his blade-shaped shoulders tugging at his robe, causing a ripple.
“Wizard Larry cleverly used the time you were away from home. While you were on your way to the audience, you had already returned to Tizka to study hard. Your assistant had already unveiled the secret that shrouded Ya The veil of the Saliya Library is racing against time to decipher its most famous collection, "The Song of Ahriman". As far as I know, he has practiced the first twelve chapters to perfection, and the deciphering of the thirteenth chapter is also in full swing. "Yes."
Tubek raised his hand and stretched out his withered fingers, tapping Sharo's shoulder.
"You should be proud, very proud. Wizard Larry has surpassed the meager knowledge you gave him and solved many priceless mysteries. I guess he will be happy to share his knowledge and knowledge with you." Share, or maybe if he involves some areas that even you can't understand, then he can only have a chat with the Red Lord~"
Sharo shook his head and stepped forward, through The barrier of the helmet whispered:
"You liar, you can't tell a single word of truth from your broken mouth. How could he discover the Song of Ahriman? How could he decipher it?" A scripture that can only be understood by Ahriman himself? "
As the wizard grasped the robe at the collar of Tubek, the color in the hall boiled - the waves of Sharo's anger surged everywhere.
The conversation between the two broke the tranquility of the harmony of the piano and turned the singing into a chaotic dissonance.
"Now that I think about it, maybe I should have discussed it with you before I helped him."
Tubek explained quickly, as if he intended to sincerely regret:
"Oh, I'm so stumped. Is it a sin for me to share my knowledge with others? After all, Wizard Larry is just a young wizard who is loyal to you. It would be a blessing for you if he could refuse the power of Ahriman's Song. ——The loyal wizard Larry only hopes to bring you more glory, doesn’t he?”
Tubek knows the truth well, and Sharo’s apprentice will not give up any of his masters. Opportunities at your feet - or this is the normal situation within Thousand Sons.
Using this threat is definitely more than enough to get Sharo to take the bait.
Every courtier here dreams of somehow undoing the Scarlet Letter Curse - the curse that turned Magnus's legions into unconscious dust. It is a great merit to be able to offer such a great gift to the Red King. .
But Tubek knew that all attempts were a fool's errand - the Scarlet Letter Curse could never be lifted.
If you want to gain the favor of Magnus again, you need to present him with a brand new army, one that is more powerful than before.
