Just like back then, the reason he allowed the goddess of justice to appear and make Gwen stronger,
He longed for the appearance of a powerful figure who could transcend the game's storyline, an enemy who could put immense pressure on him.
He even hoped that this enemy might defeat him and shatter his title of 'victor'.
Therefore, I will ignore you.
Viktor uttered these words softly.
He gazed at the Grand Master, but his deep eyes remained completely unmoved.
Similarly, the Grand Master's expression was as expected—calm, even with a hint of a kind smile on his face.
It was as if Victor's resurgence was something he had naturally anticipated.
"As expected, I was right from the start."
The Grand Master stroked his beard and looked up at the giant eye in the sky.
At this moment, the giant eye no longer displayed eerie and chaotic illusions, nor did it cause people to feel mentally inflated or driven mad.
However, the sight of that staring eye fixed on the earth still made one feel somewhat uneasy.
A faint trace of magic lingered deep within its pupils, as if symbolizing everything it had just gained and then given away.
It was through this magic that Vega was able to draw upon a continuous stream of magical power from all over the world for Victor.
After the battle with Aubrey, Victor's magical energy was completely depleted.
Relying solely on natural recovery is insufficient to awaken the dormant calamity within the body.
Those six enormous creatures had an extraordinary need for magic.
Even if Vega were to drain all his magic, it wouldn't be very realistic.
In this way, while Viktor is being restored, the archmage could very well take the opportunity to launch an attack.
Wouldn't that give the Grand Mage an opportunity?
Therefore, Vega came up with a solution.
Create illusions to immerse everyone in the world in the reality that the world is about to be destroyed.
In this way, it can force the archmage to take action and break the spell.
The archmage who broke the spell naturally had no time to deal with Vega, who was treating Victor.
He could have easily ignored everyone being trapped in the illusion and directly attacked Vega, interrupting Vega's magic reception.
As long as Vega is stopped, Victor will be unable to wake up for at least a short period of time.
However, if he chooses to do so, it will conflict with the justice and morality of the Mage Council, thereby losing the faith and worship of the world's people.
Vega is forcing him to make a choice.
Stop me, and let everyone in the world fall into a devastating illusion from which they cannot awaken.
You, the great mage, will also lose the faith of countless humans, and thus will be unable to become stronger.
If you don't stop me, I can restore Viktor.
For the Grand Mage, there was actually only one choice in this multiple-choice question.
This is just as Vega said.
This is what made him who he is.
Hearing this, the archmage sighed helplessly, then looked at the raven perched on Victor's shoulder.
A heartfelt expression of appreciation slowly escaped his lips:
"What a brilliant strategy!"
Just as a great mage would never give up on becoming a god, Vega would never give up on Viktor.
Vega was well aware of this, so he chose to cast a spell that only an archmage could break and that consumed very little magic power.
In this way, it can use its remaining magic to 'revive' Victor.
Once the spell is broken, the archmage will gain the faith of humankind.
He naturally became the god-king 'Odin' recognized by mankind.
At the same time, Vega was also able to successfully restore Victor during the vacuum period when the Archmage dispelled the magic.
Through this win-win approach, they achieved their respective goals.
It's really hard to say who lost more and who gained more.
But if the Archmage stops Vega from healing Viktor, they will both lose.
Therefore, in the eyes of the archmage, Vega's magic was indeed a brilliant move.
but……
"Are you sure that even if he wakes up, he can really defeat me?"
Upon hearing this, Vega couldn't help but feel angry.
You say it's possible, but you actually say Viktor can't beat you?
"Old Deng, you..."
It immediately wanted to retort with curses, but after only a few words,
The next second, it felt its body being suddenly pulled by a tremendous force.
Leaning forward, his head was pulled violently forward by his neck.
Suddenly, a crimson meteor streaked across the night sky, leaving a dazzling scarlet trail as it hurtled straight toward the archmage.
As the great mage watched the rapidly approaching ball of flames, he gently waved his hand, and a faint, illusory barrier appeared in front of him.
The next second, Victor, entangled in crimson flames, appeared in front of the archmage.
He swiftly swung his arm, concentrating all the force of his impact and the amplification of his magical elements into his fist, and slammed it powerfully against the barrier in front of the archmage.
This fiery fist tore through the surrounding deep darkness.
The burst of light resembled wings flying in reverse, releasing a rich, crimson glow.
Bang!
The force slammed violently against the pale barrier, causing the entire outline to tremble violently.
Crimson flame patterns streaked through the air, shattering the protective barrier from within.
However, Victor's powerful fist did not stop after shattering the barrier, continuing to strike straight at the archmage.
Seeing this, the Grand Master remained calm and composed.
With a thought, a complex and exquisite mysterious formation instantly appeared beneath his feet.
Almost instantly, he left his original position and appeared in the safe sky dozens of meters away from Viktor, like a blur.
call!
A gust of wind swept past, accompanied by a wave of scorching heat that swept across the sky.
Flames detached from his arm and burned fiercely in the air.
It then transformed into a flurry of sparks that drifted through the air until they gradually dissipated.
Victor clenched his fist with one hand, his whole body enveloped in flames, and the intense light from his fists shone a dazzling, fiery yellow.
His lower body was like a fiery soul, burning fiercely and leaving a trail of crimson flames.
Even so, his gaze still revealed a chilling indifference as he coldly said:
“Vega”.
Why are you wasting your breath talking to him?
