Chapter 470 The Mission Begins
Krall Island, in the basement of the central castle.
Colin held a pale white crystal that he had just received, with a focused expression on his face as he manipulated the magic power into it.
This crystal seemed ordinary, but it contained a mystery. Colin used his spirit to explore it, and what he perceived was not a small crystal, but more like a vast land, with dozens of them containing magic energy. The location shines brightly.
Both the number and location of these locations are consistent with those special locations on Lansansi Island that Mir previously described.
This is obviously a special teaching tool tailor-made by the wizard for this operation.
At this time, beside Colin, Leiden, Jacqueline, Lance and Yates were all holding crystals and conducting assessments intently like him.
Behind the podium at the front, Mir was also holding a crystal in his hand. While paying attention to the wizards, he was seizing every moment before the task to familiarize himself with the procedures that needed to be carried out.
As the leading wizard on this mission, she naturally has to bear a lot of pressure.
At this moment, while paying attention to everyone, he was once again familiar with the process of building a teleportation array that he had been familiar with countless times. Mir had no extra thoughts to allocate to expression management, and his face was tense and serious.
It was at this time that this sorcerer, who had always had a gentle demeanor, showed a hint of his sharpness as the number one genius in Panse City.
Time passed by minute by minute.
The sound of a needle dropping could be heard in the entire basement, and the only sound was the faint breathing of everyone.
In this way, about five minutes later, Mir suddenly raised his eyebrows slightly, smiled silently at the corner, and said through a message: "Congratulations on completing the construction of the base pillar of the teleportation array, and successfully passed the assessment."
As soon as the transmission ended, Mir raised his eyebrows slightly and turned to look at Colin on the other side.
Almost at the same time that Raiden had just finished building the base pillar of the teleportation array, the wizard's crystal in his hand also lit up for the first time, which meant that he had also completed the construction of the base pillar.
Smiling at Colin, Mir also transmitted the message:
"Congratulations, you have completed the construction of the teleportation array base pillars and successfully passed the assessment... If you are willing, you can use this time to familiarize yourself with the construction of the teleportation array base pillars a few more times."
"Of course, you can also continue and try to complete the construction of the entire teleportation array."
"Okay, Sir Mir." Colin replied through a message, his face calm.
Five minutes was not his limit. As early as three minutes ago, he had basically completed the construction of the base pillar of the teleportation array.
As Mir said, if it is not required to complete the construction of the entire teleportation array, but simply completes the construction of the base pillars of the teleportation array, it is actually not difficult and the time required is not long.
Of course, it does not take long to build the entire teleportation array, and it is not difficult for Colin to complete. If it goes well, the whole process will only take more than ten minutes.
After all, they were on the Lan Shengxi Island occupied by the gods, so it would certainly not work if it took too long to build the teleportation array.
As for building the pillars of the teleportation array, in fact, there are only two things they need to do in this process.
The first is to use magic power and materials to build the foundation pillar, and the second is to use specific means to connect the foundation pillar to about a dozen remote and special places on Lan Shengxi Island.
The whole process is very concealed and will cause almost no fluctuations.
At the same time, Mir will build the main body of the teleportation array. After completion, he will connect it to the base pillar of the teleportation array to completely complete the teleportation array.
After about two minutes, Yates looked happy, the crystal in his hand also lit up white, and Mir also smiled at him.
A minute later, Jacqueline also successfully built the base pillar of the teleportation array.
Although the basement remained quiet, everyone's eyes vaguely fell on Lance at the end.
This was especially true for Yates. He was unhappy with Lance, a wizard from the Tainted School. If Mill hadn't said anything, he would have almost wanted to propose that the assessment be ended.
After all, in his opinion, Lance was undoubtedly the last one and should be eliminated.
A moment later, roughly nine minutes had passed since the start of the assessment. Mir looked at the silver pocket watch in his hand and was about to declare the end of the assessment when the crystal in Lance's hand suddenly lit up.
The sunny male wizard looked slightly happy at first, but then he sighed a little lonely.
Although he did complete the construction of the teleportation array base pillar, he was the last one.
"Congratulations on completing the assessment, Lance." However, the next second, Mir said with a smile.
"I also passed the assessment?" Lance was slightly startled, a little confused.
Yates on the side also frowned.
"I said before the assessment that as long as you can complete the construction of the teleportation array base pillar, you will be considered passed." Mir explained, "And nine minutes is not long. If you become more familiar with the process in the next time, the final time will be longer. It’s short and has met my initial expectations.”
Having said this, Mil paused and looked at the wizards before saying, "There will be a total of four teleportation array base pillars that need to be built by then."
"Lance and Jacqueline will be responsible for the south side pillar when the time comes, and the other three of you will each be responsible for one."
Lance's face was filled with joy and he nodded quickly, "Okay, Sir Mir!"
They all chose to come here, so it would be better if they could continue to perform the mission. He didn't want to go back in despair!
"The time for the mission to be carried out is roughly around the evening, and the details have not yet been determined. During the next period of time, you will stay here temporarily and do not leave at will.
Try to be as familiar as possible with the process of building the teleportation array base pillar. I will come back to inform you before the mission begins. "Mier gave final instructions, then turned around and hurriedly left the basement.
For a while, silence returned to the basement.
Yates glanced at Lance a few times, as if he wanted to say something, but in the end he weighed it for a moment and remained silent.
On the contrary, Jacqueline, who seldom spoke, suddenly said: "Your Excellency Lance, forgive me for being more direct. I would like to ask what is the relationship between the wizard of your school who once took refuge in the gods and you?"
Lance stiffened slightly, with a complicated expression on his face. He looked at Jacqueline and sighed: "I do know that wizard. After all, he is from the same school, but I am not familiar with him."
Lance took a breath, looked at Jacqueline and continued in a deep voice: "I understand your concerns, but I am indeed not that kind of person. Death is certainly scary, but living in this world, there are always things more terrifying than death. There are always some things that I don’t want to do even if it means death!”
Jacqueline looked at him seriously, then suddenly touched her chest and bent down and bowed: "I'm sorry."
"That's nice to say. I hope what you do will really live up to what you said!"
However, Yates on the side suddenly said coldly.
Even though he was a gentle person like Lance, he was a little angry at this time. His eyebrows became sharp and he said loudly: "It will be like this when the time comes!"
Yates snorted coldly and did not continue to answer. He just said to himself:
"The island I used to live on was called Haoyi. It was a large island well-known far and wide, and it was home to several fourth-level wizards.
Even if the gods attack, they will not be able to fight back! "
"However, when I was really facing the crisis of the invasion of gods, I was the only high-level wizard to escape with the help of my mentor."
Yates lowered his eyes, hiding his unspeakable complex expression, and continued:
"The reason for this is because a certain fourth-level wizard took the initiative to betray the island out of fear of death..."
As if arousing sad memories in his heart, Yates's voice gradually became lower, and finally he remained silent.
Lance opened his mouth, as if he had something to say, but in the end he just said two simple words: "You will see what I will do when the time comes."
Then he closed his mouth and said no more.
"There are still a few hours, and we will go to the rear of the gods together to carry out important tasks." Raiden slowly stood up, looked around and said in a deep voice,
"If you have any doubts now, it doesn't hurt or even help to say a few words in advance."
"But when it comes time to carry out the mission, I hope that everyone can put aside their past grudges, trust each other, and complete this important mission together!"
"What Mr. Leiden said is absolutely true." Colin was the first to agree. He looked at Lance and the others, paused and said, "What's more, those so-called gaps actually don't exist at all."
Hearing this, Lance's face looked better and he nodded in agreement, "Of course, the mission is always the most important."
Jacqueline nodded and looked at Lance a little apologetically.
The latter shook his head silently, his face still a little depressed.
Naturally, Yates had no objection to Leden's words and nodded lightly.
Jacqueline hesitated for a moment, as if to lighten the atmosphere, and asked: "Sir Yates, how is the wizard who betrayed Howie Island doing now?"
Yates did not answer. Instead, Raiden said: "He is the current Pope of the Lord of Gold and Lava."
"This way..." Jacqueline was stunned for a moment.
"It's just a puppet that has lost its self-consciousness. The wizard will kill him sooner or later!" Raiden said solemnly.
Yates remained silent, just silently holding the crystal in his hand and continuing to familiarize himself with the process of building the base pillar of the teleportation array.
In the basement, the wizards stopped talking to each other.
Colin sat quietly in his seat, and his attention gradually shifted to the task he would perform later.
In the basement, the bright crystal continued to emit soft white light steadily, and the wizards sat quietly in their seats.
The whole scene seemed to have pressed the pause button and fell into a freeze frame.
However, time is still passing quietly.
After an unknown amount of time, Mir's figure quietly appeared in the basement.
All the wizards opened their eyes one after another and looked at the gentle witch, their expressions unavoidable and tense.
‘Finally it’s time to carry out the mission. ’ Colin exhaled slightly, and his heartbeat sped up inexplicably. In addition to being nervous, he was more excited.
Behind the podium, Mir didn't talk nonsense, he just said with a serious face:
"The mission begins now, follow me."
The wizards suddenly stood up, and Colin could clearly hear Yates beside him breathing slightly heavier, as did Jacqueline beside him, biting her lip lightly.
After Mir finished speaking, he took the lead and walked out, followed by the wizards like a long dragon.
After walking out of the basement, along the corridor on the first underground floor, and reaching the stairs, Mir waved his hand to lift the restriction on the second underground floor, and led them to continue down, and finally arrived at the second underground floor where Colin and others had never been.
As Colin originally thought, this is indeed where the center of the witch formation of Krall Castle is stored, but next to the center, there is a simple teleportation array.
Mir stopped in front of the teleportation array, turned around, and looked around at the wizards.
After a moment, she suddenly smiled: "You don't need to be so nervous."
“Although the gods are powerful, the wizards are not without the power to fight against them.
In addition to the seven Supreme Councilors...the will of the world is watching us. "
Colin's heart moved slightly.
“Perhaps some of you already know and have even seen the will of the world, while others have not yet heard of it.
But no matter what, ‘she’ is the existence we most rely on and trust. "
After Mir gave a brief explanation, he pointed at the teleportation array and continued:
"This teleportation array is connected to the will of the world. Wait a moment, and the will of the world will teleport us to the weakest defense point of the gods chosen by her, which is closest to Lan Shengxi Island." Speaking of this, Mir added from He took out a strange bead-shaped sphere in his hand.
At first glance, this bead is as translucent as white crystal, but when you focus on it, you will find that it seems to be emitting colorful brilliance.
"This is a hidden witchcraft tool made by the Supreme Councilor using the source of the world. It can perfectly hide our figure. Even if the gods come, they cannot easily see through it. This is the most important guarantee for our mission!"
"The teleportation array will teleport us later to the place closest to Lan Shengxi Island and where the gods' defense is weakest. What we need to do is to use it to sneak into Lan Shengxi Island quietly, and then go to the selected Renlai Square. Start building the teleportation array."
As Mir spoke, he urged the hidden orb in his hand.
In an instant, an invisible wave enveloped everyone, and then quickly dissipated.
Colin felt it carefully, but could not catch any abnormalities.
If he hadn't looked at everything in front of him and felt an inexplicable sense of alienation in his heart, as if he was in another space, he would have even thought that the hidden ball was not activated.
"Are you ready?" Mir looked around at the wizards and asked in a deep voice.
Colin and others nodded.
"Very good." Mir smiled, "Then, the invasion plan will officially begin now!"
She took the lead in stepping onto the teleportation array.
Colin and the others did not hesitate and stood up immediately. Looking at the expressions of the wizards, they all seemed calmer after hearing what Mir said.
'Is the consciousness of the world watching us...'
Uh-huh!
It seemed like an instant, and it seemed like a long time passed. The teleportation array suddenly lit up. In the increasingly strong white light, the figures of Colin and others gradually disappeared.
…
There are still some differences between the transmission of world will and ordinary transmission.
Colin could hardly feel any fluctuations in space changes. Without a trace of fireworks, the scene in front of him suddenly changed from the basement to the dark and vast sea.
Hua Hua Hua——
The cool sea breeze blew, and the waves under my feet continued to surge. The setting sun had completely sunk, and the connection between the sky and the sea was blurred.
However, almost at the same time, all the wizards looked to the northeast.
boom--
Rumble——
There, the originally dark sky became bright again, and the violent sounds of witchcraft and magic reached here but left a dull ending, even being drowned out by the sound of the waves.
Under the dark sky, such a scene is not shocking from both an auditory and visual perspective.
But both Colin and the other wizards were stunned for a moment.
They could imagine what a turbulent and intense scene there was behind the light that seemed dim due to the distance.
"Let's go." Mir urged, taking a slight breath, "Don't waste the time those wizards bought for us!"
The wizards nodded and flew forward with Mir with serious expressions.
At the end of the line of sight, behind the waves, a dark island looms.
That was the goal of their trip—Lanshengxi Island, one of the seven islands in the south.
Whoosh!
Mir held the concealment orb and flew forward silently with the wizards.
After a moment, a dividing line suddenly appeared in the sea water in front of him, and a huge barrier that was difficult to see but existed across the front.
This is a phenomenon caused by the power of the Gray Tower of Gods.
In such a vast sea area, the gods mainly rely on two methods to deal with the possible invasion of wizards.
One is the irregular patrol of believers, and the other is the warning barrier formed by the gray tower in front of you.
Mir came closer, holding the hidden orb, and observed it carefully for a moment, and found a gap in the sea on the left.
"Go in from here. Ever since those gray towers were partially destroyed, there have been gaps in the God's warning barrier. This is one of them."
With that said, she took the lead in crossing the gap in front of her, followed closely by Colin and others.
With the help of the hidden ball, nothing unusual happened in this process.
After crossing the warning barrier, the rest of the journey was smoother. Although we were unlucky to encounter a group of patrolling believers along the way.
But he didn't even notice them strutting by.
In this way, about ten minutes later, the group successfully set foot on Lansansi Island.
