1170 Hand Over Your Son Part 2 (1/2)
”Master, why must we be reasonable?”
Sika had been cultivating on the 17th floor of the magical tower for the past few days and had not been by Saleen's side. Nailisi had been sticking to Saleen.
”Because I can't possibly conquer the whole world. It can't even be done by the Lord of Glory. Most of the time, I have to choose to work with people, or other people will work together to deal with me. Before this, I overcame all kinds of calamities and a few life or death crises. Me being able to survive was due to the fact that the enemies were fighting the battles by themselves and did not work together to deal with me.”
Saleen paused. ”Now, even if I want to kill and conquer cities, I need to have a reason. Then, if people talk about it in the future, they will not criticize me for being a tyrant. They will only say that I came to help Lex to seek revenge. Like that, when others work with me, they will not have any misgivings because I am an unreasonable person.”
”Of course Master is reasonable.” Nailisi chuckled. Saleen had become reasonable, but by a mage's definition of reason.
The Magical Element Tower flew to the skies of Pompeii City. Even though it was at an altitude of 3,000 meters, it was still discovered by the magical towers in the city and triggered the magic alarms.
Saleen saw the panic in the city and felt emotional. At the beginning when he and Lex had passed through, they had to be very careful. Now that he had come again, the other side's anxious appearance formed a distinct contrast.
”Let's land over there,” Saleen pointed at the square in the east part of the city. The water puppet Rossen, who had grasped the flight of the magical tower, used an almost rough method to make the Magical Element Tower descend.
From an altitude of 3,000 meters, the Magical Element Tower smashed into the ground in an upright position. Inside the magical tower, the tremors could not be felt, but outside was not the same. The huge impact smashed a 500-meter hole in front of Pompeii City's monument.
Fragments flew everywhere, casualties were scattered, and nearly all patrolling soldiers were killed. The symbol of Pompeii City, the huge memorial, was also on the verge of destruction from the magical tower's descent and slanted towards the west.
The big guy took a step out from the magical tower, using the puppet's characteristic metal sound to shout, ”Grand Duke Pompeii, hand over your son!”
The big guy's yell was transmitted over hundreds of li, so Grand Duke Pompeii was able to hear it. However, the ones who quickly came before the Magical Element Tower were two mages.
The two mages were not holding magic staves and wore red magic robes. When Saleen saw the two mages, he laughed coldly. ”Alchemy City is really willing to part with their capital. These two are actually level 10 mages, but we don't know what measures they used to advance to the position. Nailisi, we can each kill one.”
”Master, why is that necessary? With the presence of the demonic spirits, we can test out 3,600 high level magic spells and see if they can kill two level 10 mages.” Nailisi gave a sinister smile. The demonic spirits' mental strength was roughly enough to release six to seven of the strongest magic attacks. Of the Magical Element Tower's might, the strongest mode had not yet been released, so they could use the two amges to test it out.
”That's true.” Saleen realized there was no need for him to waste mental power. If he did not use the demonic spirits, it would be a waste. Having 3,600 demonic spirits who could attack simultaneously was precisely the most horrifying parts of the Magical Element Tower.
”You must be Your Majesty Saleen.” The two red robed mages used sound transmission magic, sending their voices to the high altitude, but Saleen ignored them. He let the big guy communicate with the two mages on his behalf.
”Mages, this situation does not concern you. The enmity is between a king and a duke.”
The two mages glanced at one another and laughed. ”We are Grand Duke Pompeii's personal mages. You are trespassing on the Grand Duke's territory. Are you trying to provoke a war?”
”Indeed, didn't you know of this a long time ago? My troops have already occupied Pompeii's city and killed tens of thousands of soldiers. Why are you still asking such a childish question?”
”Your Majesty Saleen, you are a mage. We can use a mage's methods to solve this situation,” the level 10 mage baited Saleen.
The big guy continued to faithfully speak for Salee. ”Alright, then let's use a mage's methods.”
After it finished speaking, the big guy leaped up to the magical tower's 16th floor and went through it. On the magical tower's upper six floors, huge metal machinery grew, forming gears that started to rotate. The two level 10 mages frowned, not knowing what Saleen wanted to do. They could smell the scent of danger.
3,600 magic spells were simultaneously released from the peak of the Magical Element Tower, aggressively bombarding the two mages. The magic attack was not as intense as a magic cannon and did not result in any elemental resonance. The more terrifying thing was that under normal circumstances, it was impossible for one person's body to bear such a concentrated attack. There was no way that so many mages could release magic spells from the same position, and it was even more impossible for them to all be targeted towards the same person.
In front of such a terrifying magical construction, highly concentrated attacks had become the norm. The magic spells of 3,600 demonic spirits descended at the same time. The two mages, who had advanced with great difficulty using secret methods, had not even tasted the sweetness of strength before they were blasted into dust.
The large stone tablet behind the mages vanished with them. A 100-meter cavity appeared in front of the Magical Element Tower. The effects of the attack of the magic spells was horrific. All of them were level 7 and above and had black magic flames. The large magic power furnace started up, providing unmatched levels of energy to the magic net.
