Passing through the portal and arriving at Jimana's lair, Zuo Si thought at first that there was an accident with the magic, and he and others were sent to another place.
Because this place doesn't look like a place where a lich lives.
Whether it is the bright magical light above the head, or the gorgeous, exquisite and luxurious decorations and furnishings around that are like a girl's boudoir.
At first glance, it presents a beautiful light yellow color with some red and pink as embellishments.
In addition, there is a pot of blooming daffodils on the table.
A kitten that looked like it had just been born was currently sleeping soundly on the table, completely unaware that it had fallen into the hands of a terrifying undead creature.
"Is this really Jimana's lair?" Zuo Si raised his eyebrows in surprise.
Rain nodded without hesitation: "Yes! This is the lair of Jimana, another Lord of the Symbols, Shangela's closest lover before he became a lich.
She is different from other Talisman Masters, probably because she is the weakest, so she always acts very low-key.
Moreover, Jimana misses her youth very much and always wears a magic mask to keep herself in the appearance of a girl.
So this guy's behavior is very strange. Sometimes she even pretends to be an innocent girl and actively seduces the handsome young men she likes, and then toys with them to death."
"Even after becoming a lich, Jimana still has this kind of desire?"
Zuo Si was stunned for a moment.
He never dreamed that the other party would play so fancy.
And did Shangela just not react at all and just let herself be cuckolded?
“Maybe it’s just some kind of bad taste.
Anyway, my supervisor doesn't seem to have any objection to it.
In fact, every Master of the Symbols will have more or less some preferences and strong obsessions left over from his lifetime.
For example, Shangela likes to pursue excitement and adventure, Sheleisa is keen on creating offspring, and Lakesque is very interested in the interdimensional portal of the Imaskar Empire. "
Rain explained as if she was used to it.
"Okay. It seems that everyone in the Entanglement Talisman is a talent."
Zuo Si shrugged his shoulders and immediately led his men out of this bedroom-like place and destroyed all the golems, constructs, and undead guards outside.
Since Jimana, like other Symbol Lords, had rushed over to support Shangela, she herself was not in the lair at the moment.
After clearing out all the threats, everyone dispersed to look for places where the life box might be hidden.
Finally, two tightly connected bracelets were found inside a doll that looked like Shangela before she became a lich.
Through magical detection, Zuo Si easily determined that these were the life boxes belonging to two liches.
One of them must belong to Jimana, and the other one is most likely Shangela's.
It is unexpected that this pair of lovers could maintain such a close relationship even after their physical death.
Even the life boxes are made exactly the same and connected together by powerful magic, symbolizing the determination to live and die together.
"interesting!"
Looking at the life box in his hand, Zuo Si had a playful expression on his face.
"Master, do you want me to destroy these two life boxes right now?" Rain asked cautiously.
Zuo Si shook his head gently: "No, no hurry. I want to destroy these two life boxes in front of all the Lords of Symbols, including Lagong, and let them see the whole process of Jimana's death with their own eyes."
"Are you sure you want to do this? That would mean declaring war on the entire Entanglement Symbol." Rain raised her eyebrows in surprise.
"Don't worry. After I finish this job, I will leave this world temporarily soon. Even if the Entanglement Talisman wants to cause trouble for me, it will take a few years. I have a few years to learn, accumulate and develop. By then, it is not certain who will cause trouble for whom."
After saying that, Zuo Si pursed his lips and revealed a malicious smile.
Although he has not figured out Zelanora's true identity so far, he can be sure that she is definitely not the original moon elf.
Because he had secretly investigated the records of Zelanora's rise in the Guild of Masked Mages, and found that this guy was still a low-level mage apprentice during the turbulent years, but not long after that he became a great wizard who mastered the Nine-Ring Magic.
No normal person can advance from LV3 to LV17 or above in just two years.
Moreover, from the fact that he was able to confidently deal with multiple Talisman Lords with legendary spellcasting levels this time, it can be basically judged that Zelanora must also be a legendary wizard, and his level must be above LV30.
Otherwise, we would be defeated very soon.
That is why when Zuo Si decided to launch a surprise attack, he chose to bring along this nominal "ally".
When the Entangled Symbol launches its revenge and finds that he cannot be found, it will certainly turn its attention to another participant in the raid - Zelanora.
The more fiercely the two sides fight, the more intelligence can be collected, and maybe Zelanora's true identity can be revealed.
"What about me? Should I reveal my identity or continue to lurk inside the entanglement symbol?" Rain asked in an uncertain tone.
Zuo Si answered without hesitation: "Of course I will continue to hide.
If possible, I hope you can also become a Symbol Master, lurk inside and investigate this organization inside and out.
Then wait a few years, when I am strong enough, I will come back to kill Lagun, and you will become the new leader.
When the time comes, we will work together inside and outside to turn all those liches, dracoliches, and vampires into biological cards.
What do you think of this plan? "
"Just like when you annexed the Emerald Society?" Rain's eyes flashed with a strange light.
"Yes! It's time to put an end to the chaos, disorder, cruelty and backward slavery in Calimshan. And I hate the expansion of the Church of Cyric and his voters in Calimport. So... I decided to uproot them when the time is right."
As he said this, Zuo Si exuded undisguised murderous intent.
As for the so-called "time is ripe", of course it refers to the time when Cyric read the "Cyric Scripture" written by himself through his priesthood and divine power, and then began to launch indiscriminate attacks like crazy, causing all the gods in Faerun to feel strong dissatisfaction with him.
And if he remembered correctly, the one who finally brought Xirik back to consciousness was Malik, the merchant elect in Calin Port.
Zuo Si really wanted to see if Xirik would be sealed by the gods if he killed this guy in advance.
"I understand. I will obey your arrangements and orders. However, to become the Lord of the Symbol, I need to transform into an undead creature first, and I'm afraid I can't do it myself." Rain reminded carefully.
"Don't worry. When this operation is over, find some time to talk to Ragon alone. After getting his permission, come back to me. Then, I will help you transform into a lich and improve your spellcasting level."
Zuo Si made the promise without hesitation.
Even though his own arcane spellcasting level has not yet exceeded LV21.
However, when they raided Shangela's lair just now, they not only found the opponent's spell book, but also the research notes containing several legendary magics.
Coupled with the lich transformation method recorded in the Book of the Dead, it is not a big problem to upgrade one of the cards to the "legendary" level.
It's nothing more than paying more mana, and there are also many "props" required for advancement.
In fact, when upgrading Davian and Huntington some time ago, Zuo Si consumed a lot of valuable things.
Including various weapons and equipment, as well as the complete body of the young red dragon.
He discovered that if he upgraded according to the upgrade route originally given by Spark, he would not have to pay anything other than mana.
But if you create your own upgrade route, you need to prepare the corresponding things in advance.
This means that there must be a lot of "inventory" in "Legacy" to ensure that there are enough weapons and equipment to replace when the cards are upgraded.
Or maybe these creature cards were originally of very high levels, but in order to take care of himself as a "newbie", the former planeswalker forcibly downgraded some of the cards before his death.
In short, there are definitely many secrets in "Legacy" worth exploring.
Just as Zuo Si was considering which legendary spells to add to Rain during the upgrade, a battle between legendary spellcasters was in full swing on the surface far above Shangela's nest.
Through the double deception of prophecy and spell magic, Shane VII easily caused a slight deviation in the teleportation spells of these Symbol Lords.
He was seen easily controlling six clones created by the seventh-ring magic [Simulation], and fighting back and forth with the high-level members of the Entanglement Talisman, including Lagon.
Since the total spellcasting level is as high as LV36, even though the simulacrum has only half the strength of the original body, it also has an arcane spellcasting level of LV18 and a nine-ring spell slot, as well as a large number of super-magic skills.
In addition, King Sean VII himself was standing nearby. As long as the situation became unfavorable, he would immediately intervene and give the enemy a head-on blow.
Just look at the severe burns and scorch marks on the vampire Shelisha's body to know how powerful and terrifying the power of the Undead Emperor Shane VII is.
After all, no matter what, he is still a strong man who can fight against the Dragon King Ivyklathasagran "Sharp Teeth" head-on.
It is simply not comparable to the "cowards" like the Entanglement Talisman who only dare to hide in the dark and control the servants to do things everywhere.
Especially his understanding of various spells, as well as their mutual coordination and tactical arrangements, stunned this group of Talisman Masters who usually think highly of themselves.
They simply could not understand who this young female moon elf mage in front of them was.
How could he easily block so many legendary spellcasters alone? And why could these clones created by [Simulation] cast the highest level of nine-ring spells? How high was the opponent's real spellcasting level? Especially for a guy like Lagong who was used to "hiding", the more he fought, the more frightened he became.
Because this matter had far exceeded his expectations from the very beginning, and was developing in an even more unpredictable direction.
"Who the hell are you?!"
After countering the opponent's spell, Ragon, the supreme leader of the Entanglement Talisman, finally couldn't help but ask a question.
Shane VII glanced at the other person with a slightly contemptuous look, and replied in a meaningful tone: "You can call me Zelanora."
"Zelanora? Are you the newly promoted high-ranking member of the Masked Mages Guild of Amn?"
The two red lights in Lagong's eye sockets kept flashing, showing the unrest in the owner's heart.
As early as a year ago, he had heard Shangela report that a magic genius appeared in Askatla, who raised his spellcasting level from LV3 to LV15 in just one year.
The name of this genius is Zelanora, a moon elf with a beautiful face.
But Lagong never expected that more than a year later, the other party could suppress several Talisman Masters at the same time by himself.
And the arcane spellcasting level seems to be much higher than mine.
This speed of mastering magical knowledge and power is so fast that even Karsus, the most famous genius of the Netheril era, who successfully performed his first trick at the age of two and became the great arcanist at the age of twenty-two, would feel inferior to him.
Ragon doesn't think that such a "genius" really exists in the world.
He was more inclined to believe that the moon elf in front of him had been controlled by a more powerful spellcaster, or even possessed by him.
Only in this way can it be explained why the other party has such rich and amazing experience in spell duels.
Especially the use of some inconspicuous low-level spells made the Lords of Symbols present feel astonished.
Such combat experience cannot be acquired by staying in a tower all day studying and researching.
Quite the opposite!
It requires a lot of actual combat to accumulate bit by bit.
Although the two sides are still in the stage of mutual testing, neither is serious.
But Lagun still had a feeling that even if he revealed his cards, he would probably be unable to do anything to the other party.
"Haha, yes, it's me. Your secret activities in the area of Askatra violated the laws of Amn and the rules set by the Guild of Masked Mages. So at the invitation of Soth, the Chosen One of the Goddess of Poison and Disease, Talona, I decided to join forces with him to launch an equal revenge action. Especially Shangra, the mastermind, must pay the price for his actions, the price of death."
Sean VII deliberately pretended to speak in an official tone.
He was well aware that in the previous battle, he had exposed his spellcasting level and rich combat experience.
In fact, when the Undead Emperor agreed to help Zuo Si block the reinforcements from the Talisman Lords, he knew that some things could not be concealed.
But this does not mean that he will reveal his identity to the other party. Instead, he intends to muddy the waters and let the entanglement mark focus on Zuo Si.
"Soth?!"
The image of a young man concentrating on making the [Blue Dragon Nemesis] for the organization in the Mage Tower instantly emerged in Ragon's mind.
Shane VII nodded meaningfully: "Yes, it's Soth.
Your constant surveillance and harassment annoyed him, so he decided to teach you a lesson.
After all, in this world, only the strong deserve respect and are qualified to live freely according to their own will.
Although Soth is still young, he is indeed a strong man.
But you didn't give him enough respect.
For this reason alone, the lich named Shangela deserves to die.
Don't worry, we are not here to destroy the entire entanglement symbol today, but just to prove one thing to you.
That means the Master of the Symbol can also be killed..."
As the last word came out, the Lords of the Symbols, including Lagon, were stunned for a moment.
Since they were either liches or dracolichs, and had been dead for who knows how many years, only a skeleton was left on their bodies, so it was impossible to see any expression on their faces.
But the shock and astonishment on the vampire Xie Lisha's face expressed this emotion and reaction very well.
Jimana was like being hit by an undead spell, standing there motionless, with the two cold lights in his eyes suddenly bursting out.
Obviously, in the understanding of these people, the word "kill" does not just mean simple killing, but to destroy the life box that preserves the lich's soul and life essence.
A lich's life box is often the most important secret in its heart, and it will never be revealed to others easily.
At least Lagong didn't know where Shangela hid his life box.
As for Jimana, he was frightened and immediately wanted to return to his nest to check whether his and Shangela's life boxes were safe.
Unfortunately, she really has no way to do that now.
Because if he did so, it would be equivalent to telling everyone present that he was the custodian of Shangra's life box.
So the situation suddenly came to a stalemate.
Although the magic confrontation has basically stopped, both sides are still on high alert, as if waiting for the outcome of the next battle.
After all, the Talisman Masters didn't know that Shangela lost his ability to cast spells because he studied the notes that Zuo Si deliberately gave him, and they still thought that this guy had a great chance of winning.
But not long after, a portal opened out of nowhere and Zuo Si slowly walked out from the other side. The masters of the talismans were completely dumbfounded.
Jimana, in particular, saw at a glance that the two connected bracelets were exactly his and Shangela's life boxes.
The next second...
She was like a madman. She cast a short-distance teleportation magic and came closer. She wanted to release the Nine-Ring [Imprisonment Spell] at the first move, intending to lock up Zuo Si permanently and then take back the pair of connected bracelets.
Unfortunately, Jimana didn't know that any spellcaster who got within thirty meters of Zuo Si would basically be committing suicide.
As a result, the spell was chanted less than halfway when more than 70% of the energy to maintain the stability of the spell structure was drained away by the ability to create a profession.
In the end, the whole spell failed as expected.
Before the weakest Talisman Master could react to what was happening, he saw a small hand pressing on his head.
In the blink of an eye, all the protective spells on his body collapsed.
Immediately afterwards, a scepter flashing with dazzling magical light came crashing down on his head.
Bang! The lich's hardest skull was shattered, and a large number of bone fragments flew all around.
Just one strike! Jimana's skull was completely split open, leaving only a section of the spine extending from the wizard's robe, and then he fell straight to the ground and did not move.
At the same time, a ball of flame containing sacred energy quickly gushed out from the body of the remains, enveloping her from head to toe and slowly burning her to ashes.
Obviously, this attack triggered a 20% chance of [Reduction into Ashes].
This is a seventh-level divine spell. The higher the level of the priest, the more amazing the damage.
Just as its name suggests, when the target is hit, if its physical attributes and vitality are not strong enough (low Fortitude saving throw), it will be swallowed by the holy or unclean energy flames in a minute (the moment of spell release is determined by the caster), and not even a trace of residue will be left.
As we all know, the physical attributes and vitality of most arcane spellcasters are originally very poor, and after being transformed into undead liches, these attributes are completely gone.
Spells like the sixth-ring [Return of Immortality] and the seventh-ring [Reduction to Ashes] are even more deadly to undead creatures than those powerful nine-ring arcane and divine spells.
Such a quick and clean kill obviously caught everyone else present off guard.
Even Shane VII, his "ally", couldn't help but reveal a look of shock and vigilance.
Because he could clearly feel the divine power and blessing from the gods gushing out from the scepter at the moment of impact.
“呦!好久不见,纠缠符记的诸位。距离我离开卡林港已经过去了这么久,你们想我了吗?”左思像个老朋友一样十分热情的打着招呼。
“你知道我们?”
拉贡用不是很确定的语气试探道。
左思嗤笑着回答道:“我当然知道。从我跟艾莎合作的时候,拿出了那种能够吸收闪电伤害的储能装置,你们就已经盯上了我,不是吗?
后来包括委托我制作【蓝龙克星】,故意让沙漠强盗袭击我,然后跟我玩了一场游戏,统统都是你们的安排。
甚至就连这只【龙化手套】也是不怀好意,想让我的体质变得越来越差,最终不得不把自己转化成巫妖续命。
虽然我在很长一段时间内都没有察觉,但最终还是通过其他方式得知了真相。”
“所以你今天的举动是为了报复?”拉贡不动声色的继续询问。
因为符记之主的领导者需要确认,左思的动机究竟是什么,然后才能决定接下来要怎样应对。
“是,也不是。如果仅仅是在卡林杉发生的那点事情,我还不至于做出现在这样的举动。可问题是,在我抵达阿斯卡特拉之后,香格拉还仍旧纠缠不休。既然他自己找死,那我为什么不成全他呢?我想要的只是你们的尊重,仅此而已。”
说着,左思高高举起手中的权杖,对准两个命匣狠狠砸了下去。
“不!!!!!!!等等!”
拉贡见状顿时变得异常紧张,试图施展法术阻止左思摧毁两名符记之主的命匣。
可遗憾的是,他的动作实在太慢了。
当左思手里的权杖落下去之后,咒语吟唱了还不到五分之一。
紧跟着,轰的一声巨响差点把人的耳朵给震聋了。
猛烈的能量爆炸和冲击,直接席卷了周围好几米范围内的一切。
等漫天的尘土和碎石小时候。拉贡看到自己亲手培养的符记之主就这样永远的消失了。
他们的命匣被权杖砸了个稀巴烂,根本没有了任何修复的可能。
而且封印在里边的灵魂与生命本质,也都彻底消失的无影无踪。
唯一可以肯定的就是现在的左思,已经拥有找到和摧毁一名符记之主命匣的恐怖能力。
这让在场其他的符记之主都紧张、害怕的要死。
而且那柄权杖——【塔洛娜的宠爱】,一看就是威力相当恐怖的神器,由神明亲自赐下力量和祝福。
即便是拉贡,也不敢确保自己在挨上一下能活下来。
除非他提前给自己加持【法术反转】,亦或是【能量免疫】和【能量吸收】。
当着一众符记之主的面摧毁了香格拉与吉玛纳的命匣后,左思随手将彻底报废的两个手镯丢到对方脚下,脸上挂着危险的笑容说道:“我想现在,你们应该学会尊重我了,不是么?”
沉默!
可怕的沉默!
甚至就连龙巫妖——萨普赫拉克塔,都没有因为吉玛纳的死亡而感到半点高兴。
由于后者的势力范围和情报网跟他有所重迭,因此他一直都在谋划着想要将其摧毁。
但因为忌惮香格拉的力量,所以始终不敢付诸实际行动。
可让萨普赫拉克塔万万没想到的是,被自己视为竞争对手和敌人的吉玛纳,竟然会以这种方式死在一个原本名不见经传的“小人物”身上。
是的!
在这条高傲虚荣的龙巫妖眼中,左思始终都不过是一个微不足道的“小人物”,哪怕他引起了纠缠符记首领拉贡的特别关注也不例外。
不过随着香格拉和吉玛纳的彻底死亡,萨普赫拉克塔开始意识到自己犯了一个错误,一个巨大无比的错误,那就是忽略了“选民”这两个字的含义。
同样的,左思也注意到了这个【龙化手套】的制作者,当着龙巫妖的面启动了变身成为半龙人的能力,并且疯狂催动火花与神力,从被封印的老年蓝龙身上抽取魔法力量和生命力。
才短短几秒钟的功夫,刺眼的奥术灵光便从手套里喷涌而出。
很快,他的身体就开始急剧变化、膨胀。
大概几分钟之后,就在众目睽睽之下从一个普通的半龙人,变成一条算上尾巴体长超过十六米,直立时颈部达到接近五米,双翼展开达到惊人二十多米的老年蓝龙。
不用问也知道,就在刚才,左思亲手杀死了封印在手套里的那条受伤老龙,并将其所有的力量吸收进自己体内,获得了一个永久性且没有任何限制的变身能力,或者叫做第二形态也可以。
因为这并不是单纯的变身,而是彻底吞噬掉了一条蓝龙。
最明显的特征就是他的力量属性,从十七点直接飙升到与龙一样的三十一点,魅力属性也从十三点提升到了十八点,直接朝着老年蓝龙的标准看齐。
至于那些没有动的属性,则是原本就超过了这个年龄层蓝龙的最高上限。
除此之外,还包括天生的类法术能力、闪电喷吐。
反正这条老龙所拥有的一切,现在全部都成了左思的所有物。
从现在开始,他甚至可以通过锻炼巨龙血脉中流淌的魔法力量来让自己成为一名术士。
毫无疑问!
与凡人相比,巨龙的优势实在是太大了。
无论是高达数千年的悠长寿命,还是与生俱来的坚硬鳞片、魔法抗性,又或是堪比魔法武器的利爪、威力惊人的喷吐,统统都是凡人望尘莫及的。
尤其是强大的魔法天赋,足以让许多自诩为“天才”的法师、术士感到羡慕嫉妒恨。
如果不是大部分龙都非常懒,几乎不会怎么认真开发自己的魔法天赋,通常只是等年龄层慢慢增长自动觉醒一些施法能力,否则哪里还会有那么多屠龙勇士。
估计不被龙屠杀就是一件相当值得庆幸的事情了。
感受着巨龙形态下所拥有的强大力量,左思不由的微微抿起嘴角,对不远处的龙巫妖说道:“你在制作【龙化手套】的时候,恐怕没有想到我可以将这件诅咒物品彻底变成自己力量的一部分,对吗?”
“你是怎么做到的?”
萨普赫拉克塔语气中带着难以掩饰的震惊跟难以置信。
因为按照他的设计,就算左思足够幸运每一次都能通过意志对抗,成功从被封印的受伤老龙夺取生命力,充其量也就是增加一些身体的基本属性,比如说力量、体质和魅力,根本不可能做到让自己变成一条真正的蓝龙。
“很简单!是塔洛娜赐予我的神力,以及自己的一些小手段。”
左思一边说着,一边检查身上的魔法物品是否因为变身而出现损坏、脱落之类的情况。
结果发现,自己变身的时候,它们也都随之产生了变化。
毕竟随着不断的升级和淘汰,身上大部分低级魔法物品都已经被替换掉,取而代之的是高级魔法物品。
而高级魔法物品,通常都会额外附加针对佩戴者形态变化的魔法。
当然,这也不是绝对的。
不过左思并没有保持在巨龙形态太久,大概几秒钟就又变回了人类模样。
在没有经过严格训练的情况下,他的巨龙形态并不具备任何实战能力,充其量也就拿来吓唬人或者“虐菜”。
“神力……”
萨普赫拉克塔眼眶里的两点红光剧烈闪烁。
作为极少数掌握通过掠夺同类生命力来强化自身禁忌法术的他,比其他符记之主都更清楚这意味着什么。
这意味着对方也掌握了这个禁忌的法术。
并且由于左思本身还是生者,所以可以不断去狩猎其他巨龙来强化自身。
一想到自己亲手送给了对方这样一个超级大礼包,龙巫妖的内心就如同被成千上万只蚂蚁啃食一样痛苦、难受。
因为那正是当初他无比渴望得到的东西,即成为一条费伦大陆上各个种族和势力公认的强大龙王。
“亲爱的索斯,你隐藏的手段还真是令人感到吃惊。”夏恩七世意味深长的说道。
左思摆出一副无奈的样子耸了耸肩膀:“没办法。这个世界实在是太危险了,各种对我不怀好意的家伙多如牛毛。如果不多预备几张底牌,到时候连怎么死的都不知道。”
夏恩七世深以为然点了下头:“我完全同意。相信两位符记之主的死亡,已经足以让他们学会尊重你了。现在,我们是不是可以回去了?毕竟要是再打下去,某些家伙应该就要忍不住开始动用传奇魔法了。”
“既然您这么说,那今天就到此为止吧。再见了,纠缠符记的诸位。请记住,以后别来烦我。不然我保证你们很快都会落得跟香格拉与吉玛纳一样的下场。”
说完这番充满威胁跟恐吓的话,左思直接冲身边的夏恩七世点了下头。
两人几乎在同一时间施展传送魔法消失在原地。
整个施法过程符记之主们就只能眼睁睁的看着,根本不敢有任何动作。
You know, those clones created by [Simulacrum] are still staring at them.
As for the people brought by Zuo Si, they had all returned to the Mage Tower through the portal long ago.
After watching the two most dangerous enemies since the establishment of the Entanglement Symbol leave, Lagun breathed a sigh of relief and asked without turning his head, "Who do you think the true identity of that woman named Zelanora is?"
"Could it be those old monsters left over from the Netheril era?" Rakesk's tone was filled with strong fear.
In his opinion, the only legendary spellcasters on the continent of Faerun who could possess such high spellcasting levels and rich combat experience were the great arcanists who had lived for thousands of years.
But Sapherakta shook his head and denied it: "No, that's not right. That moon elf can never be the great arcanist left over from the Netheril era. Because his way of casting spells is completely different from that of an arcanist. It is closer to a magic network mage like us."
"Damn it! Is there another legendary spellcaster in this world that we don't know about?" Xie Lisha asked gritting her teeth.
Because she was too young, she knew far less about the various secrets than other Talisman Masters.
"Of course! And there are quite a lot of them! That's why I have always asked the entire organization to keep a low profile. The deaths of Shangela and Jimana are a lesson for all of us, a lesson that must be remembered. Don't ever think that you can do whatever you want after becoming a legendary spellcaster." Ragon reprimanded in a very stern tone.
Because in his opinion, the attack was the serious consequence of Shangela's unauthorized actions.
After all, when the news came that Zuo Si had become the chosen one of the gods, he ordered all contact to be stopped.
Xie Leisha lowered her head and responded, "Please rest assured, I am not a lich and I only have one life. Even for my own safety, I will act carefully and will never violate the organization's taboos."
"What should we do with these two people who know the secrets of the organization?" Rakesk asked cautiously.
"Anyway... let's collect intelligence first. Especially Zelanora. Before we figure out her true identity, we Jedi cannot act rashly." Ragon lowered his head and thought for a moment before immediately giving instructions.
Although the death of the two masters of the symbols made him extremely angry and annoyed, his instinct to "hide" eventually prevailed.
Don't fight a battle you are not sure of winning, and never fight to the death with an enemy that is too powerful.
This is the principle and style of the Lich Lagun in dealing with people, and it is also the reason why he has been able to live so long without being killed.
"I understand. After a while, I will set up a new base in Amn to collect intelligence on this woman named Zelanora."
Hearing that he didn't have to fight a powerful enemy, Lakeske instantly relaxed a lot.
Just when Ragon was about to announce that the Lords of the Symbols should disband on the spot, a portal suddenly opened out of nowhere.
The next second...
Rain, covered in blood, stumbled out from the other side and shouted in panic: "No... No! My... My teacher Shangela was killed by Soth and his men."
"Rain? You're still alive!"
Xie Leisha's eyes widened in disbelief.
As a powerful vampire, she easily identified the countless fatal wounds on the other person's body, as well as the amount of bleeding.
If it weren't for the [Life Protection] spell, he would have died long ago.
Unfortunately, all the people present were undead creatures and had no habit of carrying healing potions with them.
Because those potions rich in positive energy are all deadly poisons to them.
Just as Lakes was about to cast the Seventh Ring [Limited Wish] to heal his injuries, Lagun raised his hand to stop the move, and stared into Rain's eyes and asked: "Tell me, what exactly happened in Shangela's secret base? How did the other party find it and kill their way in?"
“I’m sorry, I don’t know anything.
Recently, I have been controlling the Emerald Society in Amn, and following the orders of my mentor, I have been approaching Soth, trying every means to obtain magical knowledge from the other world from him.
By the time they received the distress signal and rushed over, the entire guard force in the base had been wiped out, and even the mentor had his skull smashed by the artifact scepter.
When the enemies discovered me, they immediately launched an attack.
Fortunately, the trigger spell I memorized today was the Anywhere Door, so I barely escaped."
Rain told the story she had prepared in advance in one breath.
Knowing that she had become a summoned creature of the Planeswalker, she was not afraid of death at all.
Even if you are discovered, the worst that can happen is that you will be killed and returned to the card cemetery to wait for rebirth.
"Rain has indeed been secretly controlling the Emerald Society in Amn in recent times. I can prove this."
Xie Lisha took the initiative to step forward and vouch for the great wizard, with whom she had always had a good relationship.
As the youngest Master of the Entangled Symbols, she has been looking for a reliable ally.
And Rain, who is only one step away from becoming the Lord of the Symbol, is naturally the most ideal alliance partner.
"Then did you get anything useful from Soth?" Ragon continued to ask in an emotionless tone.
"Yes! I got a notebook from him through exchange."
Rain repeated the same trick and took out the notebook that recorded how to become a creator and handed it to the leader of the Lord of Symbols.
Anyway, everyone who knew the truth was dead, so she might as well take the risk and give it a try.
Lagun subconsciously took it and flipped through it quickly. The red light in his eyes suddenly surged. It was obvious that he was attracted by the creator's powerful creation ability just like Shangela. His attitude instantly took a 180-degree turn.
He closed his notebook, stretched out his right hand, which was only left with bones, and gently patted Rain's shoulder and praised her: "You did a good job on this matter. Although it violated the rules of the organization, considering that it was Shangela who gave the order, I will not hold you responsible. In addition, your mentor and his lover are now dead. The Entanglement Symbol is currently short of manpower. I think it's time for you to take that step and become a true symbol master."
"You mean... to transform me into a lich?"
Lei Yin deliberately pretended to be excited and surprised.
"That's right. I'll give you a month. After a month, I hope you can appear in front of me with a new attitude."
After saying this, Lagun nodded to the other Symbol Masters present, then cast a teleportation magic and disappeared on the spot.
You know, the death of the two masters of the talisman is no trivial matter.
Next, he would need to spend a lot of time to gradually bring the Chamber of Commerce, families, mercenaries, thieves guilds and other forces controlled by Shangela and Jimana under his control, or divide them up and hand them over to other Talisman Lords.
With such a huge workload and the need to act in secrecy, it will probably take several months or even a year or two to get the system back up and running.
This is also one of the reasons why Ragon is eager to promote Rain to become the Lord of the Symbol.
On the one hand, Rain had been in the Entanglement Talisman long enough, and there was basically no problem with her identity. She had proved her loyalty to the organization more than once.
On the other hand, Rain is Shangela's most outstanding and trusted disciple, and knows many of the latter's secrets.
If she were to take over, theoretically she could complete control of the entire area in the shortest possible time, and even achieve seamless control.
But Ragon didn't know that Rain was the only "insider" in this raid.
If she had not given the notebook to Shangela and informed him immediately after he lost his ability to cast spells, and at the same time explained all the arrangements in the entire nest, Zuo Si would never have been able to achieve the achievement of killing the Lord of the Talisman so easily.
