Qin Bai secretly gave a thumbs up in his heart. As expected of Zhong Ke, his reaction was really fast.
Without the teleportation array, it would be virtually impossible for the Fate Organization to integrate all its forces.
If everyone fights their own battles, even if the Fate Organization has any means to remotely control the situation, it will be extremely difficult.
It can be said that Zhong Ke's actions were tantamount to standing on the opposite side of the Destiny Organization.
"Zhong Ke might be in danger; we need to get there quickly."
Since the teleportation array wasn't working, Qin Bai decided to take a helicopter.
At this moment, the headquarters of the Mage's Guild had been surrounded by members of the Fate Organization, led by the man in the red mask, one of the core members of the Fate Organization.
“President Zhong, you shouldn’t have done this. You should know very well that by doing this you are putting yourself in opposition to us.”
In front of him stood Zhong Ke and a group of members of the Magicians' Guild.
Zhong Ke is now a very famous figure, and the teleportation array he created has benefited many people.
Especially for relatives and friends who were separated due to the apocalypse, the teleportation array allowed them to reunite.
Of course, many more people are deeply saddened when they learn that someone they know has died.
In general, the existence of teleportation arrays saves a lot of time and effort when traveling.
Without teleportation arrays, many people would spend far more time and might not even be able to reach other cities.
This time, because of the actions of the Fate Organization, Zhong Ke decisively removed all the teleportation arrays, directly offending the Fate Organization.
It just so happens that the headquarters of both organizations are in the same city, so they immediately led their men to surround them.
Zhong Ke's gaze was calm, and even in front of so many people, there was not a trace of fear on his face.
“Red, I’ve said it before, the Mage Guild is a neutral organization that does not participate in any power struggles. If you want the Fate Organization to deal with other forces, that’s your own business and has nothing to do with me.”
Zhong Ke's voice was calm, and the long staff he held in his hand added to his mysterious aura.
"But your current actions are tantamount to meddling! Chairman Zhong, as long as you have someone restart the teleportation array, this matter can be left alone."
The man in the red mask also seemed easy to talk to.
Zhong Ke knew very well that this was something he couldn't do; if he did, the Mage Guild would no longer be able to remain neutral.
"impossible."
Zhong Ke's voice was very firm.
"Since that's the case, there's nothing we can do about it."
The man in the red mask sneered and waved his hand: "Annihilate this place, leave no one alive!"
Zhong Ke's gaze sharpened: "Are you declaring war on the Mage Guild? No one in the Mage Guild is a coward!"
"Activate the protective magic circle!"
Zhong Ke slammed his staff into the ground, and a huge magic circle enveloped the area, forming a protective shield that covered every mage.
Various attacks landed on these protective shields, but only caused a slight ripple.
The man in the red mask was somewhat surprised: "As expected of President Zhong, I didn't even know about this magic circle. You must have set it up secretly."
Hearing this, Zhong Ke felt something was off. It seemed like the other person knew him very well.
Then he suddenly realized something was wrong!
Someone in the Mage's Guild betrayed him!
Before Zhong Ke could do anything, a huge fireball came from behind and instantly engulfed him.
"President!"
The other mages were shocked and looked at the person who had made the move.
"Lin Zhonghao, how dare you betray the chairman! If it weren't for the chairman, you would have been fed to the ice corpse long ago!"
These mages were furious and attacked simultaneously.
But this magician named Lin Zhonghao seemed to have some kind of prop on him, and the protective shield also worked for him, allowing him to withstand the attack and reach the man in the red mask behind him.
"My lord, I have accomplished my mission. I just used the tool you gave me, and Zhong Ke is doomed."
Lin Zhonghao wore a smug smile. As long as he could kill Zhong Ke, he could become a core member of the Destiny Organization. This was what the man in front of him had told him personally.
The man in the red mask thought so too, because some disposable items are incredibly powerful and perfect as a trump card.
However, the scorching flames burned for quite some time without disappearing, which made the man in the red mask frown.
Logically speaking, Zhong Ke should have died long ago, so why is the flame still burning?
Just as he was wondering whether he should take action, a soft sound rang out and the flames vanished.
Zhong Ke was unharmed, as if the flames had never appeared.
"Impossible! That's a one-time use item!"
Lin Zhonghao was shocked. If he hadn't killed Zhong Ke, he wouldn't have been able to become a core member of Destiny.
"Lin Zhonghao, you underestimate me. As the president of the Mage Guild, how could I be the president if I didn't have some trump cards up my sleeve?"
Zhong Ke looked at Lin Zhonghao with a hint of disappointment in his eyes. He once thought Lin Zhonghao was an excellent magician and had even taught him seriously for a period of time. He never expected that the other party would betray him at this time.
"Indeed, the human heart is unfathomable."
Zhong Ke let out a sigh.
The man in the red mask couldn't help but clap his hands and said to Zhong Ke, "President Zhong, you are indeed very powerful, but no matter how powerful you are, you will never be a match for fate."
"Because everything about you is under the watchful eye of fate."
As he spoke, the man in the red mask reached out his hand, and a card engulfed in flames suddenly appeared in his hand.
The card slowly rotated, turning the side with the image towards Zhong Ke.
Zhong Ke saw it; the card depicted a fiery woman who looked like an elf, with her eyes closed and her entire body surrounded by flames.
Suddenly, the woman with flames opened her eyes and fired a beam of fiery red light that instantly struck Zhong Ke's protective shield.
The protective shield shook violently, and shattered in less than three seconds.
Just as the light was about to pierce through Zhong Ke's body, a magical sprite appeared in that instant!
As Zhong Ke's strength increased, these magical spirits, which initially could only help him find things, now became more powerful and had many more uses.
Each magical sprite instantly transforms into a new barrier, beginning to resist the red light.
The red light struggled to penetrate barrier after barrier, finally disappearing when it reached the last one.
The man in the red mask frowned deeply; he hadn't expected Zhong Ke to actually be able to block his abilities.
This was a trump card given to him by the leader after he joined the Destiny Organization.
In the leader's words, the vast majority of people cannot withstand the power of this card.
