Almighty Alchemist

Chapter 83: Arcane Tower (Part 2)

Arcane Tower.

Lei Lei was nervously arranging the magic circle, with traces of sweat already oozing from his forehead.

"Leiler, how's the situation?" Bass yelled on the third floor.

"Give me another five minutes."

"Asshole, you just said you'd be given five minutes."

"Because that was the question you asked ten seconds ago." Lei Lei replied angrily.

"The problem is we're running out of steam."

"Isn't the boss giving it to the guy? Take out the good stuff."

"I can't fucking give up!" Bass yelled back.

"Fuck you!" Lei Lei scolded with a smile.

At this moment, a golden halo suddenly formed at the bottom of the tower.

Lei Lei yelled: "Be careful, someone is teleporting over!"

More than a dozen crossbows were aimed at the light gate at the same time, as long as someone came out from inside, they had to pass the level of the volley of crossbows first.

The next moment, no one appeared in the Guangmen. Instead, above everyone's heads, a giant golden hand appeared in the air, and it pressed towards the head of one of the bandits, smashing the bandit's head to pieces.

A figure appeared in the void, it was Eldrete, his whole body shone with golden light, as if the Buddha had come into the world.

At this moment, he roared ferociously: "Ants who are overwhelmed by their own strength dare to provoke the great and sacred Tower of Arcane Arts. You will pay the price for your actions. Chant of Light!"

A brilliant and dazzling brilliance bloomed in the center of the tower bottom, emitting endless light like a star exploding, approaching the human eye.

"Close your eyes!" Leile closed his eyes and shouted. Some people who had no time to close their eyes threw down their crossbows one after another, covered their eyes and fell to the ground and wailed.

Even with his eyes closed, Lei Lei could still feel the dazzling brilliance burning his eyeballs at that moment.

The strength of the sixth-level great mage of the light system is really not something that ordinary warriors can deal with. Even if they are engraved with magic patterns and possess defensive spells such as vacuum barriers, they still cannot resist the terrible blazing light attack.

Lei Lei immediately took out a black ball from his arms and threw it on the ground. A large cloud of black smoke rose up, covering the light. Light and darkness collided at this moment, forming a wonderful balance.

"Huh?" Eldrette sighed in surprise.

The next moment, the person stood in the void, swiped his hands together, and a six-pointed star array appeared in the air, spinning and emitting colorful rays of light.

Another high-level light spell that shines on all beings.

The beam of light was like the blade of a gun, stabbing at everyone violently, as if it was going to cover the whole world under the power of this endlessly brilliant light in an instant.

"Aw!" Leile raised his head to the sky and roared, raising his hand and throwing a crystal wall. The crystal wall has the ability to reflect light, which is the nemesis of light spells. Thousands of colorful lights are actually blocked by a crystal wall, and all of them bounce back to Eldrette.

Eldrette himself didn't dare to accept his own spells, and with a strange cry, his figure immediately became nothingness again, and when he reappeared, he returned to the third floor of the Arcane Tower.

"Master Eldrett!" All the magicians exclaimed.

Eldrette's face was flushed as if he was about to bleed. With the strength of his sixth-level archmage, it was easy to deal with such a group of thieves, but he didn't expect to kill only one of them in three shots, and he was forced back into the tower. This is a big loss of face.

He said bitterly: "No wonder Xiu Yiglael dared to send them here, he gave them a lot of good things. What about your side?"

Immediately someone replied: "We broke the vacuum barrier, but we were immediately attacked by a group of bursting fireballs. After finally getting through this round, we ran into that thing again."

Eldrette looked up and saw a few huge stone golems blocking the entire entrance and exit. This kind of stone golem is not strong in combat, but it has a very obvious advantage, that is, its ability to insulate magic is quite good, and it is suitable for use as a shield. And behind these golems, each bandit was holding a large stack of magic scrolls, potions, various alchemy props, plus crossbows, fireballs and vacuum barriers.

Eldrette did not expect that the opponent's preparations were so thoughtful and the arrangement was so precise. He wondered why they hadn't used these things long ago, but he didn't know that all the bandits had a miser mentality, and they were absolutely reluctant to use them at the last minute. Otherwise, if a group of ordinary warriors were to force their way to the Arcane Tower with just a few magic lines, then Xiuyi might as well let them commit suicide.

Seeing that it was impossible to break through this defense in a short time, Eldrette turned his head and shouted: "I need a fire mage, a wind mage, and a nature mage, all of which must be level 4. Let's go to the bottom of the tower again and we must destroy the magic circle. Which one of you will follow me?"

Most of the left-behind personnel in the Arcane Tower are mages below the fourth level. Doesn't this mean that there are no capable people around the fifth or sixth level in the Arcane Tower, but if the ability is above the fifth level, who would be willing to be a guard on duty? Everyone has the right to come and go freely. Therefore, although the Arcane Tower was powerful, when it came time to employ people, Eldrette found sadly that he couldn't find a few mages that met his requirements.

After finally finding it, Eldrett stretched out his robe, and the golden halo opened again, engulfing three companions and teleporting to the bottom of the tower.

The golden light door reappeared, Lei Lei's scalp went numb: "That bastard is back!"

Eldrette went and came quickly, and this time, four mages went into battle together as soon as they came back.

Wind and fire are the best partners, and light and nature also complement each other. Eldrett didn't choose his assistants randomly, but paid great attention to coordinating the battle.

The fire mage was called Loft, and as soon as he appeared, three fire crows were released. Fire crow is a kind of fire-type summoning technique, its power is ordinary, but its advantage is that it is extremely fast, and it can form multiple ones at a time. As soon as the fire crows appeared, the wind mage quickly made a move, adding three wind rings to assist the three fire crows. The wind assisted the fire, and the flaming fire crows raised their heads to the sky with a long hiss, and spit out raging flames downwards, looming like magma, showing a strength far beyond their own abilities.

Lei Lei raised his hand again, and the alchemy tool Ice Spinning Silk was released, and the sky was covered with frost, which instantly turned the flame into nothing.

Even Eldrett couldn't help but admire Xiuyi's magnificence. In just a few efforts, thousands of Gold Wittes were smashed out. Alchemists use piles of money in battle, that's a well-deserved reputation!

Of course, he didn't know how many materials Xiu Yi had in his hands now. They were obtained from Purgatory Island, from the Tower of Death, from major trading houses, from the Frank Empire, and later from the Western Continent and the Scourge Church.

The thread of light, which even the fire dragon can contend with, entangled the fire crow, and the momentum remained undiminished, and it rolled back towards Eldrett.

The natural mage didn't dare to neglect, and quickly released a shield of thorns.

Eldrette pointed with one hand and shouted: "Light of life!"

A green light leaped from the fingertips to the thorn shield. The thorn shield got the most powerful supplement, and it quickly exploded to cover the four people, barely blocking the invasion of the spinning silk of light, but the thorn shield was also cracked into pieces.

"I want to see how many of these you have." Eldrette gritted his teeth angrily.

With a wave of the magic wand in his hand, a black light, a bloody light and a blue light appeared successively.

"Light of Destruction!"

"Blood Devouring Light!"

"Azure light!"

Three beams of light hit Lei Lei directly.

As expected of a sixth-level archmage, Eldret could see at a glance the shortcomings of Lei Lei's use of props in combat, that is, alchemy props are limited in the number of varieties and cannot be used at will. In this case, simply use some spells with fast casting speed and low mana consumption to fight with the opponent.

Sure enough, Lei Lei was confused by the three spells in a row. He was also busy arranging the magic circle and dealing with Eldrett's attack.

The situation reversed in an instant, and the four mages took advantage of the situation, using various small spells one after another. Lei Lei's props were obviously not enough, and they could block one but not the other. A sharp wind and fire spell was used alternately. Lei Lei hadn't figured out what to use, and he was directly sent flying. If the vacuum barrier didn't play a role, his life would be in danger.

Eldrette shouted triumphantly: "Quick! Destroy that magic circle!"

He didn't want something so dangerous to stay there.

A gust of wind whizzed and swirled in a hurry, and it was about to destroy the magic circle that Leile worked so hard to build.

"No!" Lei Lei yelled, flying to block the opponent, and actually blocked the opponent with his own body.

"Bastard!" Eldrette was troubled by the fearless style of these desperadoes, no longer caring about everything else, he turned into a round of light wheels and shot towards Leile: "The light wheel impact!"

The light wheel was like a scorching sun, charging sharply and unstoppably, it was about to split Lei Le in two.

A black long sword suddenly appeared in the sky, and it swept towards the light wheel, and swept past...

The whirring light wheel exploded with astonishing flames and dissipated in the air.

Eldrette's body broke into two pieces and fell heavily.

His eyes widened in anger never closed, and even if he died, Eldrette still didn't want to understand what happened.

Just like that, the black-armored warrior appeared at the bottom of the tower out of nowhere, looked coldly at the other three mages, and said coldly, "You... all... are going to... die!"

Everyone was horrified, completely unaware that behind them, an undead demon rat was quietly rising from the ground. A long tail of a saw chain is slowly being raised...

———————————

Royal Coliseum.

Nicolas Cage's heart suddenly beat violently a few times.

It was as if someone had squeezed his heart hard, making him feel extremely uncomfortable.

The old man's breathing was slightly heavier.

"Your Excellency Cage, I'm so glad that you can attend such a grand event in your busy schedule." A nobleman was busy coming over to flatter Cage.

Cage replied impatiently: "Actually, I'm not busy at all. No one has dared to keep me busy these years, so that sometimes I want to do something, but someone always rushes to do it for me. For a while, I even felt troubled by this. What should I find for myself to do without worrying that someone will always do it for me? I am very glad that I still retain the right to eat, drink, and scatter for me."

The nobleman was stunned by these words, and the group of people beside him covered their mouths and laughed.

Nicolas Cage has a rather eccentric temper. He has always been known for his love of robbing others. His weird personality made everyone who came close to him suffer. In recent years, as he got older, his problem has gradually decreased a lot, but it still happens occasionally.

Usually when he has this kind of trouble, it means that he is not in a good mood and has some anxiety.

Now there are very few people who can make him anxious.

So when Nicolas Cage spoke like this, all the nobles immediately understood that Lord Sanctuary was in a bad mood and everyone had better stay away from him.

"Bode." Cage said suddenly, "What did Raschel say?"

A golden-robed archmage replied: "He said that he has a way to force Xiu Yiglaer out, but we need to give him enough time and opportunities to play. He told us not to worry, and the specific actions will be discussed after the Violet Song and Dance Troupe comes out. He asked to guarantee his freedom of movement, and all of us obeyed his orders."

"Huh, what a big breath." Cage snorted.

"He is an expert in arresting, and he can understand if he speaks louder."

Cage narrowed his eyes: "Who is assisting him?"

"It's Fallows."

"It's him, well, that young man is not bad, let him pay attention to his surroundings by the way." Cage said casually, but the uneasiness in his heart still existed, and he couldn't get rid of it no matter what.

On the other side of the large circular platform, Xiu Yi also had a bad feeling.

Sometimes things are so strange, you plot me, I plot you, in today's days of many roles, many performances, even Huey is just a supporting role. He always felt that something was out of his control, beyond his comprehension.

"Brian, keep an eye on Raschel for me, and report to me immediately if he makes any changes."

"Is that necessary? We've planned it perfectly."

"I don't know." Xiu Yi shook her head: "But there is no perfect plan in this world, and we must be careful of accidents."

"Accidents can be good or bad, and they don't necessarily appear in one direction."

"That's right, there are good and bad." Xiu Yi smiled.

As soon as he finished speaking, the first accident happened.

A loud cry startled everyone.

"Sither Darnell!"

Everyone looked in the direction of the sound source in astonishment, only to see a young warrior pushing out of the crowd and walking towards Xiu Yi.

"Bateson?" Christine exclaimed, covering her mouth.

It was the Master Bateson of the Bannister family who was defeated by Huey in the Misty Castle last time.

A huge burst of grudge energy is erupting from his body, showing that his cultivation has made a breakthrough compared to before.

Bateson strode up to Xiu Yi: "Master Siserda Daniel, I am glad to see that you are still alive. I lost to you last time, but this time, I will ask you to fight again."

The white gloves were thrown at Xiu Yi's feet.

Xiu Yi stared at the white gloves for a while, then slowly raised her head: "Master Bateson? Why?"

"I lost to you last time, and I was very unconvinced. As a samurai, there should be a samurai's duel style. Your opportunistic fighting method is useless here. I believe that I will definitely win you this time. This is related to the glory of the Bannister family. My grandfather's reputation cannot be ruined because of his grandson!"

Xiu Yi smiled coldly, and he shook his head: "A samurai's invitation to a duel to an ordinary person has already insulted his own honor. Even if you defeat me, you will not be honored."

"That's my business!" Bateson yelled, "I'm going to kill you and get my Christine back."

Christine said angrily: "Bateson, stop dreaming, you won't get me even if you win. And I want to remind you, this is not your territory, this is the Royal Theater. His Majesty the Emperor is coming. Do you want to kill a nobleman in front of the Emperor's eyes?"

"Aristocrat?" Bateson laughed: "He deserves it too? He doesn't even have a title. The Dardanelles are a group of upstarts, and they don't deserve to be called nobles at all."

"Actually, there are already." Christine sighed: "His Majesty the Emperor will confer on Mr. Brian Dardanelle today and grant him a hereditary baronet, so you can't do anything to them."

"What did you say?" Bateson was taken aback.

Huey gave Bateson a cold look: "So, Lord Bateson, I'm afraid I'm going to disappoint you, because I have enough reasons to reject your duel proposal."

"You are a coward!" Bateson yelled, "You cannot refuse my request for a duel, or I will let the whole city know your cowardice!"

Xiu Yi was a little angry.

It was the first time he had seen someone so ignorant.

Maybe this kid should be taught a lesson, Huey thought.

He was about to speak when suddenly there was a commotion in the crowd.

"Look over there!" Someone pointed down and shouted.

Many people looked down in the direction of the man's finger, and saw a large number of cavalry suddenly appearing in the distance and approaching here aggressively.

"Is it His Majesty's guard?" Someone asked.

"It doesn't look like that." The experienced person immediately said, "How could His Majesty's guard of honor use the assault formation? And that's not the armor of the guard of honor."

"Silver armor flower helmet, blood sacrifice coat of arms, is the knight order of the holy religion!" Someone shouted: "It is the holy knight of the holy spirit church!"

"No, it's the Knights of Radiance!" Someone corrected this sentence.

"God is above, why is the Radiant Knights here? Could it be that there are pagans here?"

What the world calls the Holy Knights is actually a collective term. Whether it is the Knights of Glory, the Knights of Glory or the Knights of the Guardian, they are all holy knights. But the biggest difference between the Radiant Knights and the other two knights is that they are the active offensive force of the Church of the Holy Spirit, and wherever they go, there must be a bloodbath. The holy knights that people often refer to are actually the Knights of Radiance.

Wherever the Knights of Radiance appear, there are heretics, and there are bloody killings. This concept has already been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people.

At this moment, the sudden appearance of a large number of Radiant Knights outside the Royal Theater really shocked everyone.

"Everyone, don't mess up! Let's see what happened?" A white-haired nobleman who was full of anger shouted loudly. His name is Uhtred Harling, a general of the Lance Empire, a nobleman of martial arts, although he retired from the front line due to his advanced age, his prestige is still there.

"Master Harlem, why did the members of the Radiant Knights suddenly come here?" Someone asked Uhtred Harlem.

Harry said proudly, "Maybe it's for His Majesty's birthday."

"Let the Radiance Knights come to celebrate your birthday? This is not like the style of the holy religion. Those holy knights are only responsible for sending death."

"I know this very well." Harlem waved his hand impatiently: "Everyone, don't worry, my men are outside. He is a very capable person, and he will figure out the situation soon."

The old general didn't brag. When the Knights of Radiance rushed to the periphery of the theater, they spread out slowly. It seemed that they were encircling the Royal Theater. At this time, a young man hurriedly pushed aside the crowd and came to Harlem's side.

"My lord, the matter has been investigated."

"Tell me, what happened?" Harlem asked proudly.

"Lord Hamilton of the Radiance Knights led a team in person. It was mainly led by a Radiance Knights team with hundreds of people. There were also 400 Honor Knights auxiliary knights. They claimed that they were here to capture the heretic Hugh Iglesel. They have ordered the congregation of the Holy Cult to completely seal off the entire theater, and no one is allowed to enter or leave freely."

Everyone panicked when they heard the name Hamilton.

"Hamilton? Why did that lunatic come?" People whispered one after another.

It seems that the name of the Cleaner is even more terrifying than Huey.

"Then what about His Majesty the Emperor?" Harlem also turned pale. The old noble is somewhat clear about the style of the Radiant Knights.

"His Majesty's convoy was stopped on the way to the Grand Theater, and Hamilton is negotiating with His Majesty in person," the young man replied.

"Hamilton even dared to stop His Majesty's convoy? This is too much!"

"The patrons of the gods of the holy religion, what are you afraid to do? In the name of gods, all supreme beings must make concessions."

"Pay attention to your words, don't say any more blasphemous words, this is my advice to you."

People are talking about it, there are those who are afraid, those who are panicked, and those who are angry...

On the other hand, it was Xiu Yi. What interested him was not Hamilton's arrival, but the young man under Harlem. He seemed quite smart and capable. He was able to find out so much information in such a short period of time, and he did everything spontaneously without the master's order.

"That young man is not bad, he is a talent." Huey said to Buckler.

"You want him?" Buckler immediately understood what Xiu Yi meant.

"Talent is the greatest wealth in any era." Xiu Yi said lightly.

Buckler nodded: "I will find someone to touch the bottom of the young man and see if I can help you get over it. But we have a problem now, a big problem."

"What?"

"Hamilton came to trouble you. He blocked everything. I'm worried that that guy might not be able to make a smooth shot."

"Green King?" Xiu Yi was taken aback.

Buckler nodded.

Xiu Yi cried out in pain: "I knew... I knew there would always be accidents that disrupt our plans."

"What should we do now?" Buckler also had no choice.

Just as Xiuyi was about to speak, Bateson yelled again not far away: "Siser Darnell, fight me! If you're a man, don't back down!"

Huey and Buckler's eyes lit up at the same time.

Huey looked at Bateson, then asked Buckler, "What do you think of him?"

Buckler hesitated: "It's a bit risky, but it may not be impossible."

"That's him, we have no other choice." Xiu Yi said decisively.

As his words fell, a huge explosion suddenly sounded in the distance.

Everyone looked at the direction of the explosion at the same time, and saw that to the north of Winnington, the Arcane Tower, which once stood tall and attracted countless people to worship, and represented the sacred status of magicians, unexpectedly collapsed amidst the huge explosion, sending out smoke and turning into a giant face of death in the sky.
