"According to modern Earth medical research, a healthy human body carries at least 140,000 types of viruses, not to mention even more bacteria.
Now, imagine such a person transmigrating t...
In other words, even if he knew it now, he wouldn't have the mind or energy to care.
The reason was simple. He encountered considerable trouble in the process of retaking the floating city of Plantia.
This trouble only arose when his undead cannon fodder had advanced almost halfway toward the central tower.
On the empty main road, twelve undead spellcasters wearing robes symbolizing the archmage worked together to perform an unknown magic ritual, which resulted in the control of more than 30,000 undead creatures being taken away in an instant.
Not only that, they also cast a magic similar to a large-scale force wall, physically prohibiting all physical creatures including golems from approaching.
Obviously, Zuo Si's guess came true.
The bodies of those dead wizards not only successfully evolved into high-level undead creatures with intelligence, but also mastered the magical powers they had in their lifetime, and formed an alliance to become the supreme rulers of the floating city again.
But unfortunately, the previously incredibly powerful sealing magic has now become an obstacle to seizing the core control area of the central tower.
They must be trying to crack it, so they didn't show up immediately when the liches launched a tentative attack, and only chose to take action after entering the warning range.
From the faces that were rotten to the point of being almost unrecognizable and their clothing, Zuo Si recognized the identities of about half of them.
There is no doubt that these guys are powerful spellcasters whose power is almost the same as that of the Necromancer Asta.
Especially the old man in the light blue robe, he is the supreme leader of the Mage Council of the Floating City of Plantia, known as Isidor, the "King of the Sky".
He invented a series of powerful spells and magic rituals including "Starfall" and "Air Explosion".
Although in this case, without any complicated magic rituals, it is almost impossible for a person to be killed by the plague and then violently resurrected by the erosion of negative energy, and to retain his consciousness, memory and all spellcasting abilities completely.
But even if only a small part remains, it is enough to become a very difficult enemy.
"Sir, I think we have to take action. Otherwise, once those undead spellcasters break into and control the central tower, they may use the powerful force of the floating city to expel us directly." Jeffrey suggested with a serious expression.
"Perhaps we can prepare a magical ritual and launch a preemptive strike against them. Through my observation and detection just now, I have already locked on the locations of seven of them."
As she spoke, the female lich who was skilled in prophecy magic marked a few points on the floating city map.
"If they have wisdom, why can't we try to have some communication and negotiation?"
Vanessa expressed a different opinion, with curiosity and excitement shining in her eyes.
For a necromancer like him, this kind of high-level undead spellcaster formed through natural evolution is undoubtedly an excellent research subject.
In fact, in these days, this guy has collected quite a few types of undead creatures that have never been seen in Faerun.
By studying these special "mutants", Vanessa not only mastered more techniques for utilizing negative energy, but also developed several new methods for creating undead creatures and constructs.
The best proof of this is the zombie giants in the Mage Tower, which are five or six meters tall and are made of a dozen or even dozens of corpses stitched together.
But so far, these powerful weapons have not been deployed on the battlefield.
"Damn it! You are simply crazy! Undead creatures that are eroded by negative energy over a long period of time in their natural state and eventually evolve into sane creatures are fundamentally different from us mages who actively transform into liches through magical rituals.
It is almost impossible for them to retain too many memories and personalities from their previous lives, but instead they slowly form new personalities during the process of evolutionary awakening.
In other words, these undead spellcasters do not have so-called humanity, and cannot even understand the thoughts and logic of living people.
It's simply impossible to communicate and negotiate with such a guy.
And the power they wield is too dangerous and must be completely controlled or destroyed."
This time, Jeffrey stood clearly against his old friend.
By reading the knowledge and magical theories collected in the library of the Mage Tower, he has realized that this world has invented many magics that are comparable to the Nine Rings and even legendary spells.
Although these spells are more difficult to learn and more complicated to cast due to the lack of a magic network, they are not subject to any restrictions.
Therefore, even some guys who can only be considered low-level wizards according to the standards of the continent of Faerun may be able to release high-level magic with astonishing destructive power.
In addition, since the difficulty of learning magic has increased significantly, anyone who can become a wizard or a high-level wizard in this world is, without exception, a true genius with an intelligence attribute of 18 points.
Moreover, once contact occurs, the identity of the outsider will be immediately discovered by the other side, thus losing the possible advantage of launching a surprise attack.
To sum up, Jeffrey did not think it was a good idea to negotiate with the other party, nor did he think that the other party would be willing to give up the capture and control of the floating city.
But Vanessa was no pushover, and she immediately retorted, "How do we know if we don't try? Maybe the Tome of Commanding the Undead can control them.
Don't forget, this necromancy magic artifact has helped us control more than thirty death knights, and four high-level ghosts that can emit sounds similar to the Nine-Ring Magic Banshee's Howl.
Once we control these undead creatures with amazing spellcasting abilities, the power of the organization will immediately rise to a new level."
"It's too risky! Don't forget, our first goal is to capture the floating city, not to study the ecology of the undead." Another lich also stood up and objected.
Although Vanessa is the second-in-command in the organization, they will not easily give in on matters like this that involve the interests of all core members.
Seeing serious internal divisions, the liches finally turned their attention to the organization's supreme leader.
Looking at the light curtain force field outside the window that blocked the way to the central tower, Zuo Si lowered his head and pondered for a moment, then immediately ordered: "Get ready, we will launch a general attack in half an hour.
Only by seizing the central tower of the floating city of Plantia can we have the capital to gain a foothold in this world, and also know the approximate locations of several other floating cities.
This is the highest priority target, and all others will be put on the back burner.
And I am a little worried. Since so many advanced undead creatures with spellcasting abilities and intelligence have appeared in the floating city of Plantia, the same should be true in other floating cities.
If they control those floating cities, they might try to use these weapons to conquer more places, kill all living things they can see, and eventually turn this planet into a world where only the undead exist.
By then, the Plantia floating city will be our fortress and weapon to fight against them."
"Understood."
"Your will is our command."
"I will immediately activate those construct armies."
…
All of a sudden, all the liches present started to move.
They are not fools and understand that the future described by Zuo Si is not groundless, but has a high probability of happening in the next few years or even decades.
If this world really had no living people and only the dead were left, then its value would inevitably be greatly reduced.
Soon, with the start of the war machine, the previously unexposed armies of constructs and stitched giant zombies were continuously sent to the front line to replace the low-level undead creatures that were almost unable to hold on.
At the same time, the liches also began to cast spells together, pouring magic with large-scale destructive power onto the opponent's head.
Especially those targeted undead spellcasters, who suffered saturation energy attacks almost in the first round.
Three of them didn't even have time to cast protective magic, and their entire bodies were torn into pieces by the raging energy storm.
Since they are not liches and do not have so-called life boxes, once they die, they are really dead and there is no chance of resurrection.
As for those who still had magical items or had cast protective spells in advance, they gathered together in the shortest possible time and used the energy stored in the base wizard tower to barely support a protective barrier.
Just as they were hiding in the protective barrier and seemed to be discussing countermeasures, Zuo Si, who had cast a large number of protective and strengthening spells and used the [God of War Possession] card, descended from the sky with a holy sword shining like the sun, and used his creator's ability on the outer wall of the barrier, destroying its stable supporting structure in an instant.
Immediately afterwards, he raised the holy sword high above his head and slashed down fiercely.
The next second...
Boom!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! The strong light that could not be described in words instantly enveloped everything within a radius of hundreds of meters.
Thousands of low-level undead souls were purified on the spot in the face of these lights filled with positive energy, turning into tiny particles and dust that were invisible to the naked eye and drifted away with the wind. Some undead creatures like ghosts did not even leave any trace of their existence.
What’s even more terrifying is that when the white light gradually dissipated, this piece of ground eroded by negative energy actually took on incredible sacred properties.
Several high-level undead spellcasters who survived the positive energy explosion just now, their feet on the ground and their skin, rotten flesh and bones exposed to the air were all decomposed bit by bit by the intense burning of the positive energy.
"Are you alive?!"
The tone of the undead spellcaster who was resurrected from the corpse of "Sky King" Isidor revealed a strong sense of shock.
You have to know that since he "woke up" and gained self-awareness, he has not seen any living creatures in the floating city except the plants in the Arcane Garden.
"Yes, I am a living person. Although it may not be appropriate to say this, I still want to say that I am very honored to meet you in person, Master Isidor. You should know that for a long time, you have been the great wizard that I respect and admire the most. In particular, the spell of the air hammer has always interested me very much."
After saying this, Zuo Si placed one hand on his chest and performed a standard wizard salute.
As the name suggests, the air hammer is a spell that controls and compresses the air to instantly give the target a violent impact effect.
Moreover, it is divided into several levels according to the difficulty of learning and power.
The most powerful of them can even knock down a city wall several meters thick with a single blow. Even a creature like a dragon would be either killed or half-crippled if hit by it.
Unfortunately, this spell was exclusive to Isidor and was never taught to anyone else, not even his own apprentices.
In fact, according to the original plan, Zuo Si intended to wait until he successfully controlled the central tower and recaptured the floating city of Plantia, and then immediately start looting the towers of those great wizards, and by the way see if he could find some of the other party's exclusive magic or research notes.
It would be best to systematically organize the magical knowledge of all factions and then use it as nourishment for the development and growth of the organization.
After all, the magic in this world and the magic in Faerun can be transformed into each other.
If the most powerful and highest-level magic is successfully converted, there will immediately be twenty or thirty more legendary spells to choose from.
"Isidor? Is this my name when I was alive?" the undead spellcaster asked in an extremely hoarse voice.
Obviously, he didn't have many memories of his life, and his cloudy eyes revealed confusion and puzzlement.
Zuo Si nodded gently: "Yes. You are the highest leader of the Mage Council of this floating city, and also one of the most powerful mages in this world.
The Starfall you created is currently the only spell that can theoretically shoot down and destroy the floating city.
Before the plague broke out, you were almost at the forefront of the world's magical path, and were a guide respected by countless people.
If possible, I really don’t want to become your enemy.”
"You know what happened in this floating city, right?"
Another undead spellcaster who had managed to survive the holy sword's slash stared at the holy sword with some fear, and couldn't help but ask another question.
Due to the loss of memory, these advanced undead creatures who suddenly evolved subjective consciousness and mind, or even recovered scattered memory fragments, will involuntarily want to figure out their past.
Unfortunately, apart from a few scribbled and chaotic notes that remained, not much useful information was found.
Not everyone has the habit of keeping a diary like Zuo Si, recording all important things and their thoughts in a book.
Because most mages think that writing a diary is a bad habit. Once discovered or seen by the enemy, it may expose one's own weaknesses.
Some mages don't even take notes during their experiments, but memorize everything in their heads, so that no one can steal their secrets and research results.
Of course, those who are as extreme as the latter are only a minority.
"Yes, I not only know what happened, but I also know your names and identities when you were alive."
Zuo Si's fingers gently stroked the blade of the holy sword, feeling the slight tingling on his skin.
Although after his transformation, this sword is no longer wielded only by paladins like Cassomir, it still repels the touch of creatures of the evil camp.
If the one who touches it is an undead creature, it will be engulfed by the sacred flames in the next second.
Fortunately, the spark of the planeswalker can absorb the energy released by the holy sword to burn the holder to a certain extent.
So Zuo Si's hand holding the hilt of the sword was only slightly red, as if he had touched something hot.
"So... you are a resident of this floating city?" Isidor continued to probe.
"I am the apprentice of the great wizard Ashtar. Do you still remember this name?"
Zuo Si was obviously also very interested in these undead spellcasters who had evolved self-awareness and intelligence in the natural environment, and wanted to find out their current status.
Especially their most important soul, whether it is still the same as before.
Isidor frowned and pondered for a long time, and finally said in a helpless tone: "This name gives me a very familiar feeling, but I don't know why I can't remember it. Can you please tell me who he is?"
"He is a senior member of the Floating City Mage Council, just like all of you, and he has some personal grudges against you. But it doesn't matter anymore, because the mentor is dead. I ended his life with my own hands. Now it's your turn."
While saying this, Zuo Si suddenly activated the [Sun Flame Explosion] in the holy sword once a day without any warning.
moment!
Positive energy once again swept around in the form of golden light and sacred flames.
However, this time the undead spellcasters present were clearly prepared. Three of them chose to use transmutation magic to directly change their own race, successfully avoiding the fatal damage of positive energy to the undead.
Some were casting spells like energy shields to keep the sacred positive energy flames out.
There was only one guy who didn't have time to react, or who didn't know how to cast any spells at all, and he screamed in agony.
Then, with a scream, the whole body exploded, and the soul along with it disappeared from this world.
"Let's do it together! Kill him!"
Isidor shouted loudly and immediately used his most proud air hammer.
Zuo Si felt as if his chest was suddenly hit hard by something, and his whole body flew backwards uncontrollably.
During the less than two or three seconds of flight, he could vaguely see several other undead spellcasters releasing the spells they could remember at an extremely fast speed. Many of them were exclusive magic that he had coveted before. The corners of his mouth slightly raised to reveal a sinister smile.
Just as these overwhelming spells were about to hit, another divine weapon suddenly released a deep blue light curtain.
All the spells that hit this light curtain disappeared without a trace in an instant.
Before the other party could react to what was happening, Zuo Si waved his hand and instantly bounced back all the spells.
Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Accompanied by violent explosions and various violent energy reactions, an undead spellcaster was blown to pieces on the spot. His lower body and arms disappeared, leaving only his head and torso.
There was another guy who was hit by the arcane barrage he released, and his body was riddled with holes, as if he had been shot by a six-barreled Gatling gun.
But for the undead, this is obviously not a big problem.
Just cast a few negative energy spells on yourself and you will soon be back to normal.
As for Zuo Si, who was knocked flying by the air hammer, he flipped over in mid-air and quickly landed steadily on the ground.
Needless to say, through the observation and rebound just now, he has roughly figured out the basic principles and structures of these spells. With a little time, he can get the results he wants through reverse deduction.
Moreover, he had already cast a lot of protective magic, so the air hammer did not cause any actual damage.
There is no doubt that although this world also has techniques such as spell countering, there has never been an example of bouncing back a spell successfully released by the enemy.
What's more, these undead spellcasters evolved from the corpses of the great wizard had incomplete and fragmented memories, so they all showed extremely vigilant and solemn expressions.
After all, the reason why they can control the core area of the floating city of Plantia is because of these spellcasting abilities that have been retained for unknown reasons.
But now, the magic they relied on not only could not get rid of the living person in front of Zuo's eyes, but would also become a weapon in the opponent's hands, which undoubtedly brought a huge psychological impact.
"I'm sorry, I'm no longer the nobody you used to be." Zuo Si said meaningfully.
Although he also knew that these guys were just undead creatures resurrected from corpses, and were far from the real great wizards in the parliament.
But when I see these beings that I could only look up to before, now looking at a loss in front of me, I can't help but feel an unprecedented joy and satisfaction.
Isidor undoubtedly sensed Zuo Si's intention, and instantly released astonishing negative energy and arcane magic energy from his body.
Seeing this, several other undead creatures that had not yet lost their ability to cast spells immediately surrounded him and formed a circle, obviously to perform a magical ritual.
"That's right. I am determined to take over the floating city of Plantia. No matter who stands in my way, I will kick them away without hesitation."
Zuo Si did not hide anything and expressed his attitude openly.
As the force wall magic surrounding the central tower was countered by the liches, a large number of constructs and high-level undead armies finally began to show their power, defeating the lords who controlled the low-level undead creatures.
Many mage towers that served as strongholds quickly fell under the fierce attack.
Every time a wizard tower is captured, Vanessa will immediately send people to take over and connect it with her own wizard tower behind it, eventually gaining actual control over an area of the block.
Some lords who had originally submitted to these high-level undead spellcasters even chose to surrender in order to avoid being killed.
It can be said that the situation in the entire floating city has now been reversed.
As long as these last few guys are killed, Zuo Si will become the supreme master here.
As for things like turning the other party into a card, I basically don't even want to think about it.
Because except for vampires and half-ghouls who still retain some characteristics of living people, it is impossible for most intelligent undead to fall into a coma or lose consciousness.
This means that unless the level of the Planeswalker and the Spark forms an absolute crushing advantage over them, there is a high probability that the seal will fail as long as the opponent maintains a strong sense of resistance.
Although arcane magic, divine magic and the special abilities of priests can be used to force the other party to obey temporarily, this kind of resistance from the heart cannot be erased.
This is also why when Zuo Si creates advanced undead creatures, he basically does not give them intelligence, consciousness, and independent thinking ability.
"So we are mortal enemies, and there is no possibility of reconciliation or negotiation. Very good! In this case, I have nothing to worry about."
After saying that, Isidor suddenly raised the staff inlaid with a giant sapphire in his hand and continuously injected the magical power in his body into it.
Other undead spellcasters also quickly began to chant spells and transfer their magic power over.
In the blink of an eye, a dazzling blue beam of light shot out from the top, tearing apart the dark clouds covering the sky above.
Immediately afterwards, a huge magic circle opened in the sky, forming a black hole that was larger than the floating city of Plantia.
The next second...
A comet with a diameter of several kilometers emerged from the other end of the black hole and fell downward at a speed unimaginable to ordinary people.
The high temperature and heat generated by friction with the air during the fall makes it look like it is wrapped in a layer of red coat.
You don't need to ask to know the name of this spell is Starfall! Among the many spells invented by Isidor, this is the most powerful and destructive magic, which can even cause large-scale climate change.
It is said that when he used this spell for the first time more than a hundred years ago, he directly destroyed a country on the opposite side of the continent that attempted to challenge the Mage Council's rule over the world.
The country's capital was reduced to ashes on the spot by the comet's impact, and not even a ruin was left afterwards. Only a huge deep pit was left there to warn all those who dared to challenge the wizard.
At the same time, the earthquakes, tsunamis and volcanic eruptions caused by the impact left the entire country devastated in the aftermath.
The dust that was raised covered the sky, causing it to be gray for several years in a row. Not only did the ambient temperature drop rapidly, but crop yields also dropped drastically, and tens of millions of civilians starved to death as a result.
Those who survived were all infected with a terrible cough and eventually died in pain and torture. If nothing unexpected happened, it was probably "pneumoconiosis" caused by inhaling too much dust.
To this day, people living on that continent are still struggling to survive in an extremely harsh environment, and civilization has regressed to the primitive tribal era.
Such a terrible disaster, let alone in a world with relatively backward productivity, even in modern regional society, I am afraid that few countries can stand it.
It was precisely because of witnessing the power of Falling Stars that the Mage Council determined that the spell was enough to threaten the floating city with countless magical protections, and it has been banned from being used at will since then.
But now, it is estimated that all members of the Mage Council have died.
Moreover, Isidor is not the supreme leader of the floating city of Plantia who had a human identity before, but an undead who was resurrected from a corpse. Naturally, he would not care about the terrible consequences of using meteorites.
"Oh - my God! Goddess of Magic! Is this the best and most powerful magic in the world?" Jeffrey opened his mouth and exclaimed like crazy.
As a great wizard who has mastered the Nine-Ring Magic and is on the path to becoming a legend, he already knows the names and effects of several legendary spells through information within the organization and some external rumors.
But among these legendary spells, none of them could make people feel so shocked from the heart like the one before them.
After all, it is not a meteorite with a diameter of several meters, tens of meters or even hundreds of meters, but a comet measured in kilometers.
In Faerun, apart from the elves in ancient times who used a magic ritual to tear the entire continent apart, there are almost no other mortals who can master this super spell that can be called "world destruction".
"Mr. Soth is right! This world is a huge treasure for us! If we can learn all the advanced magic, the Red Robe Mage will be nothing in front of the organization."
Even Tyrantil, who always liked to remain calm and rational, couldn't help but tremble in his voice.
Because the huge benefits brought by occupying the floating city have far exceeded the limits of his imagination.
"Everyone! Please don't be happy too soon! Now we must find a way to stop the comet from falling and destroying this floating city that belongs to us!" Vanessa reminded loudly.
"What do you think of using the force wall technique? We can set up multiple layers of force walls above our floating city to offset the horrific impact of the meteorite impact?"
Another lich quickly gave the solution he could think of.
As we all know, the force wall technique uses magical power to create a transparent wall out of thin air that is invisible to the naked eye.
Theoretically, it is immune to almost all types of damage, except for dispel magic effects and disintegrate.
Therefore, as long as there is enough force wall between the comet and the floating city, it can slow down the speed of its impact and reduce the possible damage.
If the force wall is placed well, it can also cut the comet into several pieces so that it cannot destroy the main body of the floating city.
Jeffrey immediately shook his head vigorously. "No, it won't work. Look at the red outer layer of the comet. Its temperature must be very high. Once it breaks and triggers a large-scale meteor shower, the consequences will be no better than being hit directly."
"Then what do you say we should do? Are we going to try our luck by making a wish?"
"I think even if it's a wishing spell, at best it can only slightly change the angle of impact."
"Can we try to use the Gate to Another World to teleport the comet away? For example, throw it to the astral world or other dimensions?"
"Are you kidding? How can the Gate to Another World contain such a large volume?"
…
For a moment, the liches were arguing about how to deal with the threat of the comet.
Just when they were thinking over and over and couldn't come up with a good solution, they suddenly noticed that Zuo Si not far away was holding up a red card in his hand.
The moment the card is activated!
The dark clouds in the sky next to it were also torn apart, and an almost identical black hole appeared.
Then a second comet fell from the sky, landing at a completely different angle.
Judging from the angle and trajectory of the latter's fall, it will collide with the second comet halfway.
Such a strange situation not only stunned Vanessa and other liches, but even the undead spellcasters who joined forces to release the meteorite were also stunned.
They couldn't believe it even in their dreams that this super magic that they used as their trump card could be copied and pasted so easily by their opponents.
Just like that, under the gaze of countless eyes, a few minutes later, the two comets collided in mid-air.
Boom!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! The deafening roar shattered the dark clouds covering the sky for hundreds of kilometers.
The shock wave that spread in all directions alone was enough to cut the nearest mountain in half. A large amount of rubble rolled down from the heights, completely submerging a small town at the foot of the mountain.
Immediately afterwards, after the comet shattered, thousands of meteorites left fiery red tracks in the sky like raindrops, and then fell to the ground, igniting all the weeds and trees, quickly forming a vast sea of fire.
Fortunately, there is an energy shield protecting the floating city, and most of the meteorites did not cause any damage.
Those with larger sizes were also bounced away by the angled force walls released by the liches.
"You...what on earth did you do?"
After a long silence, Isidor finally broke the silence.
"you guess!"
Zuo Si instantly revealed a very evil smile.
Apparently, he had just tried out the upgraded [Magic Card: Make It Echo].
This card can record a successfully cast spell on any target other than itself, and then use it within one minute.
When I first got it, it was only at level 5, so at best it could copy spells below the ninth level.
But after upgrading to LV8, you can copy legendary most magic.
This is also the reason why he is not afraid of legendary wizards such as Manshoon and Sazastan using their legendary spells.
Any spell cast in front of the planeswalker may affect himself in the next second.
As the number of cards in hand increases, Zuo Si has more options to use when dealing with enemies.
Just when the enemy has cracked one of the battle strategies through deep thinking, he can immediately come up with several or even dozens of new methods.
Seeing that their strongest trump card, Falling Star, did not cause any damage, this group of undead spellcasters finally began to back off.
However, the floating city currently prohibits all teleportation magic or flying magic. Unless they are also planeswalkers and have the ability to tear through space to go to the dark void, it is absolutely impossible for them to escape.
In desperation, these guys could only continue to work together to try to find an opportunity to defeat Zuo Si.
But unfortunately all these attempts ultimately failed.
Because low-level spells have no effect on Zuo Si at all, high-level spells and magic rituals require instant preparation, and if the time is even a little longer, they will be destroyed by the creator's ability.
Over time, when their magic power was finally drained away bit by bit, these undead spellcasters who were once great wizards finally came to the end of their lives.
As Isidor was purified by the holy sword emitting golden light, the war to determine the ownership of the floating city of Plantia finally came to an end.
Although there are still a large number of low-level undead and lords hiding in some houses, basements and streets, they no longer pose any threat.
With just a little effort to clean up, the city will be completely under control.
Of course, there is one very important thing that must be done before that, which is to remove the barrier set up by the central tower.
For others, this can be quite difficult.
But for Zuo Si, it was nothing more than desperately absorbing the energy that maintained the barrier until the barrier could no longer maintain its stability and finally collapsed.
However, since the energy of the central tower is provided by the heart of the earth vein, it would take him several days.
During this period, the liches took the opportunity to complete the cleanup of the floating city and collected the books and notes in other towers and compiled them into a book.
Since they had learned the language and writing of this world beforehand, they had no difficulty in learning and reading this knowledge.
In just about three to five days, a lot of spells were converted into each other.
Just as Vanessa, Jeffrey and other core members of the organization were excitedly exchanging their views and experiences, the entire floating city suddenly shook violently, and then began to fall straight down from a height of thousands of meters.
At the same time, the magic barrier that prohibited teleportation and flight also disappeared.
Because the speed was so fast, there was even a brief sense of weightlessness around.
Fortunately, it was very short-lived and the falling stopped after just a few seconds.
At this time, the liches had no time to care about their own research. They immediately dropped what they were doing and rushed to the main entrance of the central tower.
I saw that the original seal had disappeared, and the tightly closed door was opened at some point, revealing a path leading to the inside.
Without any hesitation!
Vanessa was the first to lead the way in.
The moment his foot stepped on the stairs, his whole body was instantly enveloped by a force of energy, and then his eyes blurred and he was teleported to a space that should be deep underground.
A few seconds later, the other liches were teleported over one after another.
Through the faint light around them, they finally saw with their own eyes the energy core of the floating city, a huge prismatic crystal four meters high and one meter wide standing in the middle of the cave.
"Is this the heart of the earth vein?"
Jeffrey walked closer and carefully reached out to touch the surface.
The moment his dry fingers touched the crystal, his whole body immediately broke free from the influence of gravity and floated up from the ground.
Not only that!
The abundant earth magic energy poured into his already dead body like a tide, causing his bones to become severely crystallized in less than a minute.
In order to prevent himself from being blown up, Jeffrey quickly withdrew his hand and took several steps back.
"Don't touch the Earth Core directly with your body. This is a very dangerous and reckless behavior. As I told you, this treasure is directly connected to the Earth Core energy inside the planet, and can even provide the entire floating city with energy far exceeding its needs..."
Accompanied by a familiar voice, Zuo Si slowly walked out from the dark shadows.
At this moment, he was no longer the same as usual, but was emitting dazzling arcane light from his entire body.
Whether it is the cells that constitute the most basic units of the body or the blood flowing in the blood vessels, all of them have been replaced by the purest and most terrifying energy.
Obviously, this is the result of constantly absorbing energy to destroy the barrier these days.
Even as a planeswalker, he couldn't digest so much energy at once, so he could only temporarily use his body as a container.
Because of the existence of sparks, the body of a planeswalker will not crystallize quickly like that of an ordinary person after enduring energy beyond his or her limits.
However, in this state, it is impossible to use any magic or abilities.
"Sir, what are you doing..."
Vanessa undoubtedly noticed something wrong with Zuo Si's body.
"Don't worry, it's just a little trouble. I can just consume the energy or make a magic item and everything will be back to normal." Zuo Si shrugged indifferently.
Judging from his current appearance, which is like that of a descended god, if he returns to the continent of Faerun, he will most likely be mistaken for an incarnation of a god or a saint.
"I see. So how do we control this complex and huge central tower now?"
Vanessa couldn't wait to raise the issue that concerned her most.
Zuo Si smiled and replied, "It's actually very simple! According to the magic agreement set by the original builders of the floating city of Plantia, as long as all of us join this organization called the Mage Council and then vote for a supreme leader, we can immediately gain the highest authority."
"Magic agreement? You mean, this floating city is operated by a set of highly binding clauses?" Jeffrey showed an expression of great surprise.
"Yes. Come on, let me take you to visit this wizard tower and the Supreme Codex stored in the secret room."
As he spoke, Zuo Si activated the teleportation device to teleport everyone from the space where the Earth Vein Heart was located to the middle level of the Mage Tower.
Under his leadership, the liches from Faerun were quickly attracted by the unique magical skills of this world.
