Chapter 280 Idiot (6.6k)

Chad took Colin and Colin into the study and left.

Yates, who looked gloomy, put down the book in his hand, sat on the chair without getting up, looked at them calmly and asked softly:

"Tell me, what 'important' news do you have in your hands?"

Colin stepped forward, although he didn't like Yates' attitude in asking questions.

But the matter was so important that he didn't think much about it and told Yates everything quickly and concisely.

As his words gradually narrated, Yates also gradually raised the corners of his mouth.

Before Colin could finish speaking, he put down the book in his hand and chuckled, interrupting him playfully:

"You mean - the tree elves are traitors?"

Colin's heart sank slightly, he paused and added in a deep voice:

"I mean it is possible. What I am sure of is that the elves, especially the tree elves, must have fallen to the side of the gods!"

He had expected that Yates would not easily believe what he said. After all, people speak lightly, and the news was too bizarre...

However, he was already prepared and continued:

"Sir Yates, I was in the Elf Kingdom..."

"If the tree elves are traitors, then I have reason to suspect that you are a spy sent by the gods to sow discord between wizards and elves!"

Yates interrupted again.

Regardless of how Colin entered the elven kingdom, and how he left safely from the so-called contaminated elven kingdom.

Just stand from his perspective.

Instead of believing in the bizarre news delivered by a first-level wizard who suddenly came to the door, he believed in the inspection and judgment of the councilors who were high-level wizards.

Zeheti on the side could not help but frown slightly at this moment.

But she doesn't know as much information about the Elf Kingdom as Colin does, and... Yates's doubts are not unreasonable at this moment.

So Zeheti did not choose to speak, but stood aside without saying a word, waiting for Colin's answer like Yates.

'The overall situation is the most important thing...'

Colin took a breath and silently took out a few pieces of brand new manuscript paper from the storage ring on his right hand.

These were some manuscript papers he left behind when he was in the Treasure House Palace looking through books made from memories of understanding strange faces.

Although the words above are scrawled and twisted, they still retain some of the strange charm of those mysterious words.

'It's a pity that in order to avoid risks at that time... No matter whether it was the war tree men encountered on the road or the polluted trees and flowers that could be seen everywhere, nothing was left behind.

The same is true for the powder and debris turned into the remains of the ancient tree of life...'

Colin felt a little regretful in his heart.

It’s just that he didn’t know at the time that the tree elves had reappeared and had formed an alliance with the wizards... Otherwise, he would have to take away some strong evidence!

But now, the only thing on his body that can be considered to be connected to the elven kingdom are these manuscript papers with strange words recorded on them.

There is no useful information in the storage ring of the mixed-blood tree elf...

Maybe there might be one in Lial's storage ring at that time, but Lial's ring is still in the hands of senior Lilian.

As for other things, he couldn't think of anything that could be related to the Elf Kingdom.

Even Naxi.

If Naxi looked like a flower elf now, she might still be convincing, but now she looks like an elf with a rather special appearance.

Using her to prove that the tree elves have betrayed the gods is even more unreliable than using manuscript paper, and it even carries many risks.

While thinking about it, Colin was a little confused as to why Yates in front of him didn't take the manuscript paper he handed over.

"Which school of thought do you belong to... Well, let me think about it, it's Xisheng, right?" At this time, Yates suddenly asked lightly.

"Yes." Colin made an inaudible sound from his nasal cavity, and silently handed the manuscript paper to Yates with both hands.

"You have no family background...you are not a pure-blood wizard? Who is your mentor?" Yates finally took the manuscript, put it on the small table aside, and continued to ask casually.

It seemed that compared to the bizarre story Colin told him, he was more curious about what the little wizard in front of him had gone crazy to say such nonsense.

Zeheti, who was originally standing aside, gradually became unhappy. Although she could not 100% believe Colin's words.

But relying on her previous impressions, she already believed at least 80% of the information Colin said.

I wanted to use Yates's question to see how Colin would answer, but the gloomy-looking wizard in front of me suddenly changed to another topic...

Uh-huh!

Zeheti stepped forward lightly.

Yates in front immediately sat up straight, frowned slightly, and secretly became more vigilant.

However, Zeheti's target was not him, but the pieces of manuscript paper on the small table.

Yates stared at Zeheti carefully, but there was no expression on her blurry face hidden under the hood.

"My mentor is Atbold Rudolf." At this time, Colin continued to answer softly.

Yates withdrew his gaze and no longer paid attention to Zeheti, who was carefully looking at the manuscript paper.

"Attbald." He frowned in thought.

However, at this moment, Colin didn't want to get entangled with him on these minutiae issues anymore, and couldn't help but continue to emphasize in a deep voice.

"Sir Yates, I guarantee with humanity and knowledge that everything I say is true!

There is no small matter in war. If you don't believe me, then please at least pass this message to the congressmen. "

After he finished speaking, Yates's expression suddenly darkened.

"What gives you, a mongrel wizard, the courage to order me to do things?"

Colin said nothing, and he no longer had any hope that Yates in front of him could listen to his words.

Although I don’t know why Yates behaves like this, pride and prejudice are deeply ingrained...

However, Yates on the side continued to talk.

Perhaps he took Colin's silence as submission, or perhaps he was afraid of Zeheti, who was also at the third level.

Yates' tone suddenly softened, and he continued with a chuckle:

"Atbald... I remembered, that filthy alien hybrid among the lowly bastards - I heard the Hiddos family say that.

If I remember correctly, he seemed to have lost the challenge from Aki Hitoshi and was about to die? "

"What? Aren't you dead yet?" He suddenly said coldly.

"?!"

A burst of anger suddenly ignited in Colin's chest. Atbald was the friendliest elder he had ever encountered in the world, and he could be said to be his mentor!

But Zeheti on the side reacted even more than he did!

Zhila! ! !

As if thunder and lightning from heaven descended on the world, Colin only heard a roar, endless bright light burst out, and the vision in front of him turned into a vast expanse of snow-like white.

Immediately afterwards, Yates's miserable howl sounded!

Then, the light gradually dissipated, and Colin's vision gradually recovered.

The originally elegant study room had been reduced to ruins, and all that could be seen were broken walls and ruins. The wooden eaves above were swaying with flames.

Yates, who was charred and bruised, was tied up with a silver ribbon and kneeling in front of Zeheti.

"First, I don't like what you call a lowly bastard."

"Secondly, I don't like it when you talk about dirty interracial hybrids."

Zeheti looked down at Yates condescendingly, her face expressionless, her speech was neither urgent nor slow, and she was whispering in a cold voice:

"And thirdly, I want to tell you clearly that what the little wizard behind me said - is all true!"

Snapped!

After she finished speaking, she waved the pieces of manuscript paper that Colin had just taken out and threw them onto Yates's blackened and groggy face.

‘Is it all true? ! ’

Yates endured the numbness and pain all over his body and subconsciously looked down at the scattered manuscript papers.

The sudden bolt of lightning was almost at the level of the fourth level, leaving him powerless to resist. At the same time, he couldn't feel any anger at all, but only fear.

But the manuscript paper in front of me...is there anything special about it?

Yates couldn't see it, but Zeheti's determined attitude made him believe it.

Colin watched this scene and was inexplicably shocked!

As a third-level wizard of the Ishtar School, Yates' strength should not be underestimated...but at this moment, he was easily subdued by Zeheti.

'There is such a big gap between third-level wizards... You must know that in front of you is just a clone of Zeheti! ’

'And...Ms. Zeheti, is she also a mixed race? ’

"Why don't high-level wizards come?"

At this time, Zeheti suddenly spoke.

She originally thought that because she had caused such a big noise, another high-level wizard in the city should immediately come to check.

But at this moment, there were only some wizards of the highest level, no more than second level, surrounding them, fearfully stopping at the outside.

Colin suddenly felt something in his heart. He looked far into the night, trying to find any figure of a high-level wizard.

But it was all in vain, everything was silent, only the crackling sound of the wooden eaves above being licked and burned by the flames could be heard.

The night was silent, covering everything with a black curtain representing the closing.

The drama has ended...no, or maybe it hasn't started yet.

The black curtain in front of me may not represent the closing, but preparations for the opening...

Swish——! !

Boom——! !

Just then, something unexpected happened from afar...

First there was a light, then a sound.

Dazzling lights and deafening sounds mixed in with everything, coming from the direction of the Seven Islands in the distant south.

And amid such an incident, Yates, who had already believed some of Colin's words, suddenly turned pale... as if he was thinking of the serious consequences behind this.

'No, that's impossible! ’ His throat surged, ‘The witch in front of him must have been deceived! ’

"Has the war started ahead?" Colin's face turned pale and he murmured unconsciously, subconsciously looking back at Yates in front of him.

Yates looked at Colin's pale complexion and was slightly startled...

I suddenly felt a little lucky that I had chosen to stay on Pala Island... No, it's impossible! How could something so bizarre be true? !

He subconsciously didn't think too much and just said in a cold voice:

"In order to catch the gods off guard, after completely capturing Lower Para Island two days ago, the wizard's elite troops quietly continued to advance towards the seven southern islands ahead in the name of repairs!"

"Four hours ago, the third-level wizards and above, except for people like me... well, who stayed on Pala Island to guard this place, all of them had quietly gone to the seven southern cities under various names under various names. The battlefield of the island..."

In fact, Yates lied. This operation required all second-level wizards and above to go... Yates only stayed because of fear.

It was only after long pleading that Craigie was allowed, rather than being ordered to remain on guard.

Although Yates has never noticed this in his mind, there is always a reason...for example, the generosity of the pure-blood family and their unwillingness to compete too much for glory.

But in fact, he has never been a brave person... Just as when he began to believe that the elves were traitors, the first thing he thought of was not the situation on the front line, but luck.

Yates slowly raised his head, as if to relieve something, he emphasized:

“The most important thing is that in order to ensure that no news of this operation leaks out, no other wizards know their whereabouts, and no wizards can contact them!

Even I completely lost contact with Mr. Craigie half an hour ago. "

"So, if you want to shake the relationship between the wizards and the elves before the war, you are just talking nonsense!"

Yates emphasized in a deep voice, seemingly certain that the two Colins in front of him were just spies who came to sow discord.

But he couldn't help but think about--

'If what the wizard in front of me said is true, the elves have really betrayed the gods...'

Yates's throat surged, and he shook his head secretly in his heart.

The pressure that might cause the wizard to lose and turn to the weak side in the war, or even fail the war, and put the entire wizard family into a desperate situation, made him unwilling to believe that what Colin said was true...

He tried to get up.

Snapped!

But the silver ribbon on his body suddenly tightened, binding him, and he fell to the ground again.

"Idiot with little knowledge."

Zeheti gently hooked his hand and didn't say anything, just waved.

Uh-huh!

A ball of plasma was fired at Yates.

Yates subconsciously wanted to dodge, but the silver ribbon on his body firmly restrained him.

Zhila!

The plasma ball seemed to put a round hood on Yates, with crackling lightning moving in it.

Although he couldn't hear his screams, Colin looked at Yates' twisted expression and trembling body, and knew in his heart that this must be extremely painful torture.

Thanks to Yates being a third-level wizard, otherwise he would have died long ago.

But looking at this scene, Zeheti only felt bored.

In a war related to the survival of the wizard family, pure blood, hybrid...

These words and struggles suddenly became insignificant, like the ubiquitous gravel on the roadside.

However, the idiot in front of me... is really infuriating!

Zeheti waved gently again, wanting to put on the special plasma headgear for Yates again.

"What are you doing?!"

At this moment, a voice suddenly came from the air.

Zeheti didn't stop.

The new plasma ball continued to fall on Yates' head, making the "helmet" that was about to dissipate solidify and become bright again.

Yates's body continued to tremble.

In mid-air, some old wizard Windsor was looking at Zeheti solemnly.

She naturally knew Yates's strength, even though he was only a third-level man who had accumulated resources from the family behind him...

Neither is the character or mind.

But the third level is the third level after all, but at this moment, it is like a dead dog, at the mercy of Zeheti.

The mysterious sorcerer in front of me... is probably close to the third-level councilor Craigie of the Ishtar School.

While thinking about it, Windsor slowly descended and blessed Yates with a healing witchcraft.

"Your Excellency, can you contact the wizards who are on the front line at this moment?"

Ignoring the confrontation between Windsor and Zeheti, Colin stared at the new third-level wizard and asked quickly in silence.

He exhaled secretly in his heart, trying to ease his mood.

Obsessing about the past is the stupidest behavior. Now that things have happened, finding a way to remedy it is the most valuable and important choice!

After all... the war has just begun, and there is still a chance to save everything!

Windsor was startled. Although the light of the battle had come, she was still a little surprised that Colin was so sure of the news that the front line was fighting... and she was also a little curious as to why Colin would ask such a question.

So she subconsciously waved her hand and set up a sound barrier.

Colin did not pause and briefly told the old wizard in front of him the reason for everything.

Zeheti on the side also stopped temporarily and did not continue to attack Yates.

Although she has a bad temper, she also understands the priorities of things. At this moment, the battle ahead is obviously undecided... there is still hope!

"The elves are hidden traitors?!"

After a moment, after listening to Colin's words, Windsor murmured in disbelief, then gently hooked up his hand and quickly took the manuscript paper in front of Yates into his hand.

The next moment, after carefully checking the manuscript paper, Windsor's expression changed drastically, and she couldn't help but cursed at Yates:

"idiot!"

Then he waved his hand to remove the healing witchcraft from Yates.

"Hiss..." The injuries caused by the electric shock on Yates's body have not yet completely healed at this moment. Once the healing witchcraft was revoked, he returned to pain...

It even felt more painful because the damaged nerves were healed, making him groan uncontrollably.

But the pain in his body was secondary. What frightened him more was the attitude of the Windsor wizard in front of him.

'The Wizard of Windsor...is what that wizard said true? ! ’

Yates swallowed and asked in a trembling voice:

Windsor sighed and nodded.

Her movements were like a bolt from the blue, causing Yates to suddenly fall into a daze. He couldn't help but think in his heart:

If he had believed what Colin said from the beginning and contacted Craigie, the head of the school, half an hour ago, he might have been just in time.

But now, even at the speed of a third-level wizard, it would take at least four hours to reach the seven southern islands, not to mention getting close to commanding the wizard group on a chaotic battlefield.

Four hours... This is a surprise battle. Let alone four hours, even ten minutes, I'm afraid the situation on the battlefield will be completely different!

Endless regret flooded Yates like a tide, causing him to continue murmuring as if asking for help:

"With the help of those tree elves, the wizard has captured more than a dozen islands in succession... Maybe, maybe this time is not the best time, and those elves will continue to hide..."

Windsor looked solemn and ignored Yates. She turned her head and said quickly to Colin and the two of them:

"There is another way to immediately contact the wizard on the battlefield ahead. Follow me!"

After saying that, she stood up.

Uh-huh.

Before Colin could react, a silver ribbon wrapped around his body, and then led him to follow Windsor closely.

As for the seriously injured Yates, he was not treated as well as he was. He was just hung casually with a ribbon.

Just a moment later, several people arrived outside a marble building in the center of the island.

Windsor took them and flew in quickly.

"I am a member of the Supreme Council. My responsibility for staying on Pala Island this time is to activate this rescue device with my companions when an irresistible crisis comes."

As soon as she finished speaking, the group of them also came to a secret room.

In the middle of the secret room, there is a circular witch formation with a huge crystal on it.

"Windsor." The male wizard who was left behind stood up from the side and came over.

"These people are..." he asked with some confusion.

"Terry, there is no time to explain any more, please activate the rescue device with me!"

Windsor said urgently, quickly walking towards the crystal device in front of him, reaching out and pressing on the bulge inlaid with small crystals on the right side.

Terry's face was solemn, and after confirming that Windsor's mental state was normal, he immediately came to the crystal device.

Strictly speaking, Windsor was his senior, and he trusted her judgment.

Buzz——

The crystal device gradually lit up, and the light fell on the five people in the secret room, reflecting two completely different expressions.

Of course, there was no need for Colin and the other four to say anything. They stared at the crystal with all their concentration, with nervous expressions on their faces.

As for Yates, besides being nervous, he was also a little panicked. He comforted himself and said:

'Maybe it's not that bad. Even if the attack on the seven southern islands fails, the wizards still have enough strength. At worst, if the defense line is pushed back further, they won't be able to hit the Siya continent for a while... …'

'But I'm afraid I won't be able to avoid punishment...' Perhaps because he didn't want to admit his stupidity, a devilish and bewitching voice suddenly appeared in Yates's heart.

‘If we can deal with these people and hide the news...then if the front line fails, I will not be punished.

And if the tree elves continue to choose to hide this time, and the seven islands in the south are also captured, I can rely on this news to make meritorious deeds in the future...'

Thinking this, Yates gradually turned his eyes to Colin, the weakest player on the field.

He could see that the crystal device in front of him required the Windsors to go all out, and it could not be interrupted, otherwise they would be seriously injured or die.

So these two people were nothing to worry about...but to deal with Zeheti next to him, he wanted to start with Colin.

Yates was planning this, but he had no idea that Colin had already noticed his gaze at this moment.

He knew that people often make irrational choices in difficult situations and desperate situations, and the more they practice, the more they want to maintain their humanity. The same is true for wizards.

So I have been paying some attention to Yates.

However, Colin's heart moved, but he did not act easily, and quietly sent a message to Zeheti through his mental power.

Zeheti was slightly startled after receiving the message.

"I understand." She said quietly, her face blurry and unable to see her expression.

But if you can penetrate this blurry face and see directly into her heart, you can find that she is sneering at this moment.

Zeheti is not an open-minded person.

To put it bluntly, if it weren't for his scruples, Yates would have been a dead man when he spoke about the dirty interracial hybrid.

But at this moment, Yates is still acting stupidly, almost handing over the butcher knife with his own hand. Is there any reason for her not to accept it?

They didn't have to wait too long.

Snap.

Yates jumped towards Colin, and all the silver ribbons originally wrapped around his body disintegrated.

‘So easy? ’ He was slightly startled, without thinking much, and quickly looked at Colin.

But he found that Colin's reaction was much quicker than he thought... as if he had expected it.

"Yates, what do you want to do?!" Windsor at the crystal device noticed the change and shouted sternly.

It's just that due to the device in his hand, he couldn't use his hands to stop it.

Yates did not answer, calmed down, and continued to rush towards Colin before Zeheti could react!

Windsor and Terry also saw Yates's purpose at this moment. They were furious and reprimanded in unison.

Windsor even shouted:

"Are you crazy? Yates! This is a critical moment. The lives of countless fellow wizards on the front line are in our hands!"

"I only care about myself." Yates said in a muffled voice.

Anyway, even if the battle on the seven islands in the south fails, at most it will only cause the front line in the sea to retreat greatly.

But no matter how hard he retreats, it will never affect the Siya continent or his own family!

What's more, no one knows whether the elves were betrayed in this battle, and it may not be the next time!

As soon as he said these words, Colin suddenly stopped escaping, turned around and stared at Yates, as if staring at a dead person!

The next second.

Zhila! ! !

The lightning that originally only existed in the sky suddenly appeared in the human world.

Before he even had time to howl, Yates suddenly turned into charcoal, lost all vitality, and fell to the ground.

At the same time, there was a buzzing sound.

On the crystal, a tall projection suddenly appeared.

"Para Island, why are you asking for help?"

The tall mysterious figure asked slowly.
