At this critical moment, a wave of blazing fire swept over like a raging tide, forcibly separating the middle-aged man and the man in black robe.
The middle-aged man looked in shock at the girl with fiery red hair who suddenly appeared in front of him. It was Angelica.
She just waved her hand, and the flames were like nimble fire snakes, rushing towards the man in black robe with bared fangs and claws.
The flames wrapped around the man in black robe and made crackling sounds. The blazing flames seemed to have life and raged wildly on his body.
Angelica's eyes were as cold as ice. She fixed her gaze on the man in black robe. She pressed her hand down hard. In an instant, the flames on the man in black robe suddenly burned more fiercely. The flames rolled wildly, completely enveloping the man in black robe until he was burned into charcoal.
Angelica turned to look at the middle-aged man, a trace of concern flashed in her eyes, and asked, "Are you okay?"
The middle-aged man looked at Angelica, who was standing in front of him like a fire spirit, and shook his head gratefully. He smiled and said, "Thanks to you, little girl. If you hadn't acted in time, I would have been in danger."
At this time, Belinda ran over from the side, and seeing Conan, Ed, and Carlisle, she pretended to be helpless and teased: "Why are you three always there every time something happens?"
Conan quickly waved his hands and explained, "It has nothing to do with me and Ed. This Ancient God cultist was discovered by Carlisle, and we just happened to run into him."
Ed also thought that today's event was a coincidence. He didn't expect to meet Angelica and Belinda, so he asked curiously, "Why are you two here?"
Angelica frowned slightly and said, "We were shopping with Senior Scarlett, but she disappeared in the blink of an eye. With her personality, she must have fallen asleep somewhere."
When Ed heard this, he suddenly seemed to think of something important. His expression changed and he began to look around carefully.
He clearly remembered that there was a black object hitting him just now, but when he looked around, he found nothing, as if the object had disappeared out of thin air.
Just then, a burst of hurried horse hoof sounds came from afar, and the guards of the imperial capital quickly rushed over.
The leading guard captain looked serious and asked loudly, "What happened here?"
Carlisle hurried forward, pointed at the Ancient God Cult member who had been burned to charcoal, and said in an orderly manner: "It's like this, I found this person with suspicious behavior, and after confirming that he was a member of the Ancient God Cult, I chased him all the way here."
When the royal guards heard that they were members of the Ancient God Cult, their faces instantly became solemn.
You know, the Dawn Empire was recently condemned by the Aize Federation because of matters related to the Ancient God Cult. Now anything related to the Ancient God Cult has been listed as a top priority.
The royal guards were planning to take Carlisle and the others back for a detailed investigation. At this moment, the middle-aged man walked up calmly, took out an ID from his arms, handed it to the guards, and said, "They saved me, they will be fine. Moreover, they are all distinguished guests from the Arcane Academy."
The captain took the card handed over by the middle-aged man, glanced at it, and immediately put on a flattering smile on his face. He said respectfully: "So they are academicians of Chenxi College. Since you guarantee them, there must be no problem with them. Don't worry, we will withdraw now."
After saying this, he signaled his guards to take away the charred body and left the scene in an orderly manner.
Ke Nan opened his mouth in surprise and said to the middle-aged man, "You are actually a member of Chenxi Academy!"
The middle-aged man smiled and picked up the buckets of paint in different colors, such as black, red, and yellow, on the ground. He introduced himself, "Yes, I am Kelvin Rhodes, a visiting academician of Dawn Academy. Today, I am really grateful for the help of you all. I would like to invite you to visit my Mage Tower."
"Mage Tower!" When everyone heard this word, their eyes lit up instantly.
You know, the conditions for building a wizard tower are extremely harsh.
First of all, the magic level must reach the seventh level, which means that the magician must have a very deep understanding and control over magic; or he must have made significant contributions to the magic world and alchemy world and promoted the development of related fields; after meeting these conditions, he must also go through the extremely cumbersome application process of the Magicians Association and go through layers of review before he can obtain a construction permit.
In short, the wizard's tower can be said to be the "home" of all wizards' dreams. Inviting guests to one's own wizard's tower is one of the highest etiquettes given by high-level wizards.
Kelvin Rhodes smiled and continued, "I planted flowers all around the Mage Tower. Now is the blooming season, and the scenery is quite beautiful."
Everyone looked at each other, their eyes sparkling with excitement, and they all planned to accept Kelvin Rhodes' invitation.
After all, it is such an honor to be invited to visit the Mage's Tower. The Mage's Tower embodies most of the mage's life's hard work. It not only contains precious magic items, but also contains the mage's unique magical concepts. It is a rare opportunity to go and broaden your horizons.
Both Ed and Angelica were a little embarrassed. They didn't expect that the person they "rescued" was actually a powerful wizard who owned a wizard tower. Such a being already had extraordinary strength and really didn't need their protection at all.
Kelvin Rhodes took out a small and exquisite alchemical object from his space ring and threw it lightly.
The alchemical creation instantly unfolded in the air, and with a flash of light, a uniquely shaped steam magic carriage appeared in front of everyone.
This carriage is full of steampunk magical style. At the front, there are two lifelike bronze horses pulling the carriage, which are obviously also alchemical creations.
Ke Nan couldn't help but exclaimed: "Wow, it's really so handsome!"
It was the first time that Ed and the others saw such a wonderful alchemical creation, and their eyes were full of amazement.
Kelvin Rhodes smiled and said, "I am a senior alchemist. In my magic tower, there are many interesting things like this. If you are interested, you can take a look at them."
When everyone heard this, they were extremely excited and couldn't wait to get on the steam carriage.
The interior of the carriage is quite spacious, with eight comfortable seats, which can easily accommodate everyone.
Kelvin Rhodes snapped his fingers, and hot steam immediately gushed out of the nostrils of the two bronze horses. Their red gemstone eyes lit up instantly, emitting a mysterious and lively light.
With a slight mechanical roar, the bronze horse pulled the crowd and slowly started, passing through the wide streets and heading away from the city center.
