Chapter 334 Moonlight Murder

In the northwest corner of the capital, there is a splendid manor full of classical charm. Outside the manor, there are some guards wearing silver armors, patrolling meticulously around, indicating that the identity of the manor owner is very noble.

Those who are familiar with the situation in the royal capital will know that the owner of this manor is the fourth prince in the royal family who has the most hope of inheriting the throne in five years.

However, the face of the fourth prince at this time is not very good. Beside him, there are five mysterious mages standing all, most of them are expressionless, only one of them knelt on the ground on one knee, facing the four The prince salutes.

"His Royal Highness Fourth Prince, this time I am ineffective, please punish me!"

The fourth prince is tall and looks somewhat similar to the Hachioji, but he has short red hair like flames, and he looks full of strange magic.

"Master Auden, get up, this time it's not your fault, it's my ill-consideration. I didn't expect that Merlin in this dark spiritual realm was unexpected, and even Master Auden was no match."

The fourth prince frowned slightly. Auden was the ninth mage and one of the most powerful mages under him. Originally, he thought that sending Auden would kill Snake Lao and others and cut off part of the power of the eighth prince. But he didn't expect to kill a strange Merlin, causing Master Auden to miss.

The ninth mage, Oden, raised his head slightly and said cautiously: "His Royal Highness, the fourth prince, Merlin's strength is actually not strong, at best it is only equivalent to a fifth-level spellcaster, and he still relies on the power of magic energy. There must be a lot of magical energy on him. The only one that can increase the dark spells so powerfully is the Dark Heart of the Abyss Castle... If the spiritual power is strong, you are not afraid of Merlin's dark spells, then Merlin has nothing to fear!"

On the way back, Mage Oden also thought about it carefully. Merlin is strong in dark spells, and the hallucinogenic effect of dark spells is actually not terrible. It only requires a spellcaster with strong mental power. Can restrain.

Once Merlin's dark spells are restrained, a random sixth-level mage can restrain Merlin!

The fourth prince raised his eyebrows and kept walking back and forth.

"Master Auden, have you investigated clearly, why did the Eighth Prince send Old Snake and others to the little-known city-state of Pugas?"

Auden froze in his heart and said solemnly: "Fourth Prince, it has been investigated clearly, the Eighth Prince sent Snake Lao and others to the city-state of Purgas just to find Merlin. Merlin is the most powerful wizard in the dark spiritual realm. A student who is valued, Hachioji's true purpose is self-evident..."

The fourth prince blurted out: "Is it to win over Mage Leo?"

After a pause, the fourth prince showed a sneer on his face and said: "Hey, my terrible brother is so naive, what if only a Leo killed a seventh-level mage? After all, he is only a sixth-level spellcaster. , and I have already received the promise of Master Taning and Master Morston, the two mages are powerful eighth-level spellcasters..."

"His Royal Highness, the fourth prince, the eighth prince is really unable to win over a powerful spellcaster, at best one Leo... However, the power of the eighth prince is still huge, and he is still in the capital, so the threat to his highness is still the greatest. If you hesitate any longer, it's better to do it as soon as possible!"

One of the mysterious mage said in a low voice.

"Don't worry, it will take a few days for Master Taning and Master Morston to arrive at the capital. When the two masters arrive, they will be more confident! However, this Leo kills a seventh-level spellcaster. Do you think you can join the royal family? Hmph, kill the student he values ​​the most first, and it will save you trouble if you retreat in spite of difficulties,

If you insist on helping my innocent brother, then you can only kill them together! "

The fourth prince's gaze swept over several mages, then smiled slightly, and said to a magist who wore a terrifying earring like a small snake on his ear: "To get rid of Merlin, we can only let the seventh magist lay down hard. It's gone!"

The seventh mage said respectfully: "Els is willing to serve His Highness!"

After that, the seventh mage Els turned around and quickly disappeared from the sight of many.

Mage Auden looked at the disappearing figure of the seventh Mage Els, and said with a slight sigh of relief: "Mage Els's spiritual power is so powerful that it can be compared to a spell caster at the peak of the seventh level, so Merlin's dark spell is no matter what. It won't affect Master Els!"

The fourth prince also nodded, obviously very confident in the seventh mage.

"My little brother that day, why did you fight in the first place? It's better now, you only have a few days to live...'

A smile appeared on the corner of the fourth prince's mouth, but his expression was filled with a chill!

"Om".

Merlin was shocked, and then countless fire elements rushed into his surroundings, as if a large flame drowned Merlin.

These fire elements were madly absorbed by the magic model of the Condensed Fire that had just been successfully constructed in the sea of ​​​​knowledge, and were quickly converted into mana.

Even, due to the law of flame, Merlin's speed of absorbing fire elements is quite amazing. Although it is not as fast as the transformation speed with elemental spar, it is not much worse.

At this speed, Merlin only needed to consolidate for a day or two, and even without using elemental spar, he would be able to accumulate enough mana in the spell model of Condensed Fire.

These are the benefits of the Law of Fire! Moreover, by feeling the law of fire all the time, even though Merlin is far from condensing the law of fire, his understanding of fire has become more profound, which is also of great benefit for him to release spells.

"Condensed fire!"

Merlin waited for a while, and after accumulating enough mana to release the spell several times in the spell model of Condensed Fire, he quickly released the spell.

Suddenly, a fist-sized flame quickly appeared in the void. Under the control of Merlin, it floated smoothly. It seemed that the flame was not amazing, and the temperature was not high, but Merlin, who observed with his mental power, was very clear. The power contained in this small group of flames is simply incredible.

Especially the color of the flame is still pale white, which shows that this is the fire of collapsing, and it is compressed for an unknown number of times. Once it hits the opponent, the damage caused is unimaginable.

The flame burned for a while, and then it was dispelled by Merlin. Although the power of the condensed fire is very strong, the mana consumed is also very amazing. It needs to accumulate enough mana to release it for a long time.

Merlin took another look at the law of flame in the Sea of ​​Consciousness, and found that since entering the capital, although the law of flame has always been faintly suppressed by a mysterious force in the Black Moon Tower, there has been basically no change.

Since there was no change in the law of flames, Merlin ignored the problem of being suppressed and continued to stay in the room, allowing the spell model of Condensed Fire to accumulate mana.

Five days later, a bright moon rose high in the night sky.

"Swish".

Merlin opened his eyes abruptly, and there seemed to be an aura of restlessness permeating his body, especially the fire element, which seemed to be constantly rolling and seemed very active.

"What's going on? The law of fire is being suppressed even more strongly."

Merlin felt a little uneasy about the flame law in the sea of ​​consciousness. Compared with the previous few days, this evening, the flame law has some changes, exuding a trace of amazing flame breath, and even made the surrounding fire elements active. , which is not conducive to Merlin's conversion of these fire elements into mana.

"Old Snake once said that on the night of the full moon, the Tower of the Black Moon will be even more magical... Could it be that the changes in the law of flames have something to do with the Tower of the Black Moon on the night of the full moon?"

Merlin looked at the bright moonlight outside the window, finally stood up, and with a vertical body, he disappeared into the courtyard lightly.

After leaving Hachioji's manor, Merlin wore a black mage robe and walked quietly towards the Black Moon Tower by himself. The Tower of the Black Moon is a landmark building in the capital, and it can be seen anywhere in the capital.

Merlin looked up and saw that the Tower of the Black Moon had indeed changed again. The entire tower turned into a blood-colored light, as if it was dyed red by blood, and anyone could feel that there was a strange feeling in the tower. The magic power can make people indulge in it unconsciously.

"The night of the full moon..."

Merlin somewhat understood the meaning of the old snake. On the night of the full moon, the Tower of the Black Moon really changed. It was very strange. The blood-colored light emanated from the Tower of the Black Moon, covering most of the sky. From a distance, it looked like, Even the bright moon in the sky seemed to have turned bloody.

Although the Tower of the Black Moon is very strange, people in the capital seem to be used to it. There is actually a night market, and it is very lively, with countless people coming and going.

No one cared about the peculiarities of the Black Moon Tower, and there was a lively scene.

Merlin walked through the crowd without attracting anyone's attention. There are too many people dressed like Merlin, but most of them are spell casters. It's already commonplace, it's not surprising.

Suddenly, Merlin stopped. The closer he got to the Black Moon Tower, the more restless the law of flames in the sea of ​​​​knowledge became, and began to jump slightly.

In the past, no matter how much Merlin stimulated the Law of Flame, he would not make such a change in the Law of Flame, but now, the Tower of the Black Moon on the night of the full moon seems to have a mysterious power that affects the Law of Flame.

Merlin frowned and looked carefully at the Black Moon Tower in the distance. He did not approach the Black Moon Tower any more. After all, the law of flames in the Sea of ​​​​Consciousness was already a little unstable. If he got closer to the Black Moon Tower, no one would know. what will happen.

If there is a chance, Merlin really wants to enter the Black Moon Tower to investigate, but it is impossible to come. There are several archmages living in the Black Moon Tower, and no one dares to break into the Black Moon Tower.

"Forget it, even if there is any power or treasure in the Black Moon Tower that is more powerful than the Law of Fire, I have no chance to get it."

Merlin shook his head slightly, then turned around and rushed back to Hachioji's manor.

However, he had just walked a few steps, and his whole body trembled violently, and a feeling of extreme danger emerged in his heart.

"dangerous!"

With the corner of his eye, Merlin spotted an inconspicuous slender man in the crowd, with a weird smile on the corner of his mouth...
