Throne of Magical Arcana

The sun was shining brightly, and the lake was rippling with golden light. It seemed that the completely frozen Barack had not started to fall, and the light blue, snowflake-like solid air around him turned into dripping water droplets.

The rain fell into the air, and soon turned into white mist, blending into the surroundings.

After the ice cubes condensed in the air melted, Barack's magic robe and body collapsed like a sand sculpture, turning into fluffy white powder scattered with little crystal light.

"This power..." The effect of "Evans' extremely cold ray" exceeded Lucien's expectations. When a high-ranking magician with the sixth ring casted a defensive spell, he was killed with magic and air together. Freeze, it's scary.

Although this is related to the fact that Barack underestimated the ultra-low temperature limit of the extremely cold rays and chose the wrong defensive magic, it cannot conceal the fact that this seven-ring magic has surpassed most ice and snow magics of the same level in comparison to the freezing effect alone. The most frightening thing is that with the cooperation of spell-casting materials, it can be cast by quasi-high-level magicians who have initially substantiated their cognition of the world.

In other words, from a certain level, Lucien reduced the similar seven-ring magic to the requirements of the fifth and sixth rings while maintaining its power, just like what the Magic Council has often done in the past hundreds of years. The magic of ring, eighth, and nine rings has reduced the requirements of one or two rings accordingly, and some have even dropped from high-level to middle-level. Once you meet an ancient inheritance magician and the opportunity is right, it is not impossible to surpass level challenge.

This is one of the major advancements brought about by arcane research!

Crackling, broken rings, amulets and other items fell on the small island in the middle of the lake. Lucien came back to his senses and turned to look at Aferris, only to see its translucent amber The colored eyes were staring at the ice and snow powder that Barack had turned into, as if he couldn't believe it and couldn't accept it.

It was also shocked by the horror of "Extremely Cold Ray"? Gotta keep it a secret! Lucien thought silently in his heart, smiled and said to Alfreds: "What's wrong? Are you okay?"

"Ring... Talisman..." Afris' immature voice contained "distressed" emotions. Defeating enemies and collecting spoils is one of his greatest hobbies. As for the terrifying freezing ray, it can make five-ring magicians I'm sorry, I'm not in the mood to think about casting and killing a high-level magician's weird magic in one blow.

This is the normal Afris, Lucien wiped off the cold sweat that didn't exist: "Those broken materials are also very valuable."

In fact, after Lucien's cognition of the world has been initially substantiated, using the "Elemental Vortex" at a higher level will not drain the energy of the whole body as before, and it can even be used twice, so there are still many ways to cooperate with Afris To get rid of Barack, it's just that Lucien was cautious and directly used the strongest hole card.

"Really?" Alfreds regained his vitality and asked eagerly.

"Of course." Lucien replied without changing his expression.

These materials are indeed valuable, but compared to the value of rings and amulets, they are far behind. In addition, they have been damaged by freezing, and they may not even be comparable to first- and second-level magic items. However, how can you tell Afres about this kind of thing, anyway, it's just a collection for viewing and grasping, and it won't be sold.

Avris flapped his back wings, swooped down, and scraped the materials into his hand with lightning speed.

"Alfres, are you happy?" Lucien said with a "smile\

,""En!" Alfres happily replied while counting the fine shiny materials in his hand.

"So, it's time to return the 'element' ring to me." Lucien continued to "smile".

Afris froze for a moment, as if struck by lightning, and then said "as if nothing had happened", "I'll continue pretending to be you!"

"I don't need to go out for the time being." Lucien pushed the monocle and contacted teacher Fernando, classmate Tang Pu, President of Elemental Will Morris, Lavindi and others.

After cheating for a while, seeing Lucien's firm attitude, Afris took off Holm's crown ring in dismay, and returned it to Lucien reluctantly.

…………

Kingdom of Holm, Rentat.

Cardinal Adrian finished his sermons to several conservative nobles and stepped out of the heavily guarded manor.

Seeing this, the coachmen parked nearby lightly pulled the dragon-scaled horses, and drove in front of Adrian in a single file.

The dozen or so bishops, priests, and knights who followed Adrian stepped forward quickly and divided into two rows. The "guards" were at the door of the carriage in the middle, welcoming Adrian to board the carriage.

Adrian drew a cross on his chest, prayed a few words in a low voice, and then walked slowly towards the carriage maintaining the majesty and demeanor of a cardinal.

Suddenly, a sense of danger filled his heart, as if he had been warned by the Lord, he subconsciously used the seventh-level magic spell "Chaos Teleportation".

A door dotted with milky white light and full of sacred meaning opened in front of him.

But just when he was about to step in, the illusory gate that looked like the entrance to Heaven Mountain shook violently and shattered suddenly.

Nine-ring force field magic, "space lock"!

Immediately afterwards, the surrounding temperature rose rapidly, the air scorched and twisted, and the ground turned into orange-yellow magma. The dozen or so bishops, priests, and knights turned into green smoke before they could even scream.

Andrade's cardinal robe began to melt, and the triggered "Magic Absorption Armor" and "Blade Barrier" also melted like candles in the terrifying heat and flames.

Nine rings of elemental magic, "Lavendy's Flame Hell"!

The trigger effect was generated, but "Bright Leap" was still locked, and Andrade could only wail and burn to death!

A few minutes later, the tumbling and burning "Fire Hell" subsided, and the coachmen saw a deep pit in horror. The husband was unharmed, and the dragon-scaled horse was still snorting leisurely.

The remaining flames burned a few words on the ground not far away:

"Reciprocal Retaliation".

...

At noon, a quiet church in the city of Rentat.

There are no believers here, because it has been transformed into a "monastery" exclusively for ascetic monks. All the gorgeous and luxurious decorations have been replaced, and thorns that symbolize suffering have been planted.

In the room where the bishop used to live, a young man in his twenties was tempering his heart with pain and tenacity in the dark. He kept his body and was tall and thick, giving people the feeling of a mountain that would never collapse.

He is the most devout, gifted, and theologically researched Abraham among the ascetic monks of this generation, and he proposed many of the latest revised theological contents. Although Valenhill doesn't like his point of view, he has to admit that he is likely to be promoted to the rank of cardinal within five years. Cardinals and cardinals are evaluated as future "saints"!

When the Magic Council frequently blasphemed the gods and the focus of the church shifted, he was the first clergyman who proposed to come to the Kingdom of Holm. In his own words: "Only by hardship and danger can one be pure in devotion to the Lord. There is no suffering." and death, how to manifest the glory of devotion?"

Abraham walked barefoot in the room covered with thorns, and the pain did not make him groan. Suddenly, he opened his eyes, and the whole dark room seemed to be brightened, as if a holy thing descended from the mountain of heaven.

Outside, four flaming meteorites fell from the sky and slammed into the church.

Nine-ring magic "Meteor Burst"!

This is a magic that straddles elements and astrology.

boom! boom! boom! boom!

After several violent explosions in succession, the monastery was razed to the ground.

Abraham's body was torn apart, his eyes were wide open, and he didn't know why he died. Shouldn't he improve himself through dangerous experiences?

High in the sky, Morris opened the door of "Precise Teleportation" and left before the Rentat defensive array was activated.

...

The Glorious Cathedral is not far away, where the Knights of the Holy Grail are stationed.

Sigma, the sixth-level sky knight, wore all-white Templar armor and led several knights on routine inspections.

Suddenly, he pounced forward, extremely fast, but the lightning that struck down from the sky was even faster.

With a snap, lightning struck Sigmar's back, hitting the holy wings emerging from him.

The brilliance jumps, this lightning does not paralyze with electricity as normal, creating a pitch black, but vibrates at a high speed, like a knife cutting cheese, it easily cuts through the holy wings and all-white armor, and the inside is scorched and melted.

"Fernando's Lightning Forge"!

The power of this five-ring magic in the hands of an eight-ring mage is no worse than ordinary eight-ring magic!

After leaving the words "equal revenge", Tang Pu left quickly.

...

Allinge, the thirty-third floor of the headquarters of the Magic Council.

"Teacher, the ten cardinals, ascetic monks, and sky knights on the list have been cleared, and we have shown our determination to retaliate to the church. As long as the church dares to assassinate our magicians in Allinge, Rentat and other places, We will return it ten times over." Tang Pu reported to Fernando, the master of the storm.

Fernando nodded slightly: "These ten people selected are biased towards the Pope, right?"

"Yes, the cardinals and ascetics all support the pope's reform of theological content, while the knights fanatically loyal to the pope." Tang Pu replied affirmatively, and then said a little worriedly, "teacher, we are going to prepare for a full-scale war. Faced with such reprisals, it is impossible for the Church not to fight back."

"Call the magicians, get ready, and reveal the news to the nobles at the same time. If they want to balance the control on both sides, they have to bear the backlash brought by this control." Fernando laughed sarcastically, "See what they want Do you choose to help out, or do you want to continue to maintain the fragile balance, or do you want to watch us fight hard and wait for both sides to be taken down together?"

"A full-scale war must be in the territory of Holm. It is impossible for them to stand by and profit. The best option is to threaten the church to remain calm in order to maintain the fragile balance. When there is a huge gap in their own strengths, they want to rely on balance to gain benefits. , there are only so many choices!"

After listening to Fernando's analysis, Tang Pu turned and left, preparing to convey the will of the Supreme Jury to the Affairs Committee.

After a while, Fernando saw Lucien walking in with Aferris.

"This time, you are quite careful." Fernando still didn't praise Lucien much, "Is there anything wrong?"

"Teacher, I finished another thesis." Lucien smiled.

Fernando did not take the paper, and looked up and down Lucien carefully with his red eyes.
