We can no longer delay.
The nobles gathered here are prepared for a desperate fight. After contacting nobles in other places, they will launch a joint attack on the palace.
Although reason told the Ninth Princess that she should wait for the arrival of the Grand Mage and the Grand General before taking action, her allies had already begun to move, and they could no longer hide in the branch of the Temple of Light as before.
Should we leave the capital, or follow them?
It must be the latter.
The meeting was held in the morning, and the action began at noon. It seems that the Noble Alliance was really pushed to the limit, and their actions were very swift.
"Third sister...should we go too?"
“Yes, of course I’ll go. I’ll go anyway. I couldn’t beat Igna before because of the Archmage. Now I want to see what new tricks my fourth brother has up his sleeve.”
When Eletta said this, there was a hint of revenge in her words.
After all, the Royal Knights he led had become someone else's puppets, and he himself almost fell into depravity as well.
Now that she has the opportunity to counterattack and confront Igna again, she certainly doesn't want to let this opportunity slip by.
Since Third Sister wants to go, let's all go together.
However, before going, Veroshia asked for everyone's opinion. Liu Lang and the others agreed, and even the newly joined Weisha thought about it carefully and finally agreed to act together.
The power of the void was alright to him, but seeing the destruction it caused to the capital and the mindless void-transformed humans and demons reminded him of the zombie hordes in the southern part of the Dragon Kingdom, but the combat power here was clearly far superior to theirs.
To avoid similar situations in the future, Weisha also began collecting intelligence on the Void, which he would submit to the military region for preventative measures upon returning to the Dragon Kingdom.
At one o'clock in the afternoon, Eletta and Verocia began to head towards the palace.
The nobles had set off an hour earlier, and now the battles between them and the Second Prince were raging everywhere. No one expected that the Void-transformed mages would suddenly block the gates, causing many nobles to find themselves caught in a pincer movement.
In order not to end up like them, everyone found a way to bypass them.
"Go to the place where the monks gather."
This was the final plan proposed by the two princesses.
With so many corrupted royal mages appearing at the gate, where else could they have come from?
It's obvious!
Moreover, there is a passage leading directly into the palace, a passage known only to a select few. The Ninth Princess was one of those who knew about it. She had walked that path with the Grand Master when she was a child, so she still had some vague memories of it.
However, the Royal Mage's Gathering Place is now filled with purple cysts that seem to have their own consciousness. They even flash when people pass by, looking like they're about to explode at any moment.
"After such a long absence, has this place really changed like this?"
Verosia found it hard to believe; the purple vines and cracks on the wall made her think she had entered some new map.
I used to come here often with the Grand Master when I was a child, but this place has been corrupted too much.
"Their first stop was here, so it's no surprise that this place is the most severely affected by the void."
Moreover, I feel somewhat uncomfortable here; it seems there's some void energy floating in this environment. We need to leave as soon as possible.
Although she said she was uncomfortable, Eletta was actually in a state of extreme excitement, an abnormally high level of excitement. Clearly, this was the power of the Void stimulating her, since she had been controlled by the Void for a period of time before, and her resistance to the Void had decreased considerably.
Along the way, they also saw the remains of mages who had died long ago. It wasn't until they saw a cyst rupture and a royal mage, neither human nor ghost, emerged from it and possessed the strength of a seven-star mage, that they realized those cysts were mutated monsters.
"We've arrived."
This is near the Archmage Azrod's Tower, and Liu Lang and Xiao Dai are very familiar with this place because they passed by here before when they went to the Archmage's Tower.
However, since this was a fork in the road, they didn't go any further.
Upon reaching the end, with the activation of several magical spells by Verosia, a secret passage leading to the palace appeared!
"Who built this place? And it even requires a magic spell to activate."
"Grand Mage Azlo seems to have said that this road was built by a royal mage named Zixian, and that the guy's purpose was not pure. He definitely did not build this road for convenience."
But halfway there, Verocia also had doubts.
In my memory, this place should be a single road leading to the end, but now there are three roads?
"If we look at the directions, going left should lead to the prison, going straight in the middle will lead to the royal palace, and going right is a bit too much, since everyone's offices are in this direction."
"Then let's go through the middle. Once we're out, we can open the main gate and let the people from the Noble Alliance in."
However, fate did not want them to take this path. In the middle of the road, they saw a collapsed tunnel. Although they could move it by hand, weren't there two other paths?
If that's the case, then let's change it.
Soon everyone started moving forward along the left-hand path, and nothing happened on this path.
And the place they came out of wasn't a prison, but near a water tower.
"This place is close to the gate; we can go and help open it."
Just as everyone was preparing to take action, they suddenly stepped into the Twin Array!
