336 Battle of the Old and New Arcane Kings (seeking Monthly Pass)
In a weather with dark clouds and haze covering the sky.
The drizzle of rain kept falling, and the whole world seemed to be shrouded in a dark rain curtain. From time to time, bright elemental light erupted in the distance, cutting through the dark rain curtain, illuminating the world like daylight.
at the same time.
Karsus, who had left the protection of Garon, was wearing a gray-blue robe and looked towards the direction where the elemental aura broke out.
laugh!
The muddy ground suddenly broke open, and clusters of mud instantly solidified into steel-like spikes, piercing Karsus in rows.
However, before this magic took shape, Karsus's alert magic had already detected the opponent's traces.
"Spell invalidation barrier."
Just whispering softly, Karsus held the legendary staff given by his mysterious dragon teacher and moved his wrist slightly.
It was as if there was an invisible wind blowing around him.
As soon as the ground thorns that surged like waves were touched, they turned into flying powder and were washed into the soft ground by the continuous drizzle.
The location where Karsus is at this time is not a floating city high above, nor is it the canyon that has always been extremely safe.
He left the protection of his division commander and arrived at the surface area where the phaerim and the arcanist were fighting.
Although it is not the main battle area, there are also many pharynx lurking underground here.
Karthus' mission is to destroy this phaerim.
"Dissociation Technique."
A seven-ring powerful spell, in the hands of Karsus, a young arcanist who is not yet underage, he can cast it easily and effortlessly.
As a legendary spellcaster, most of the spells under the legend can be cast instantly.
Karsus's eyes were filled with dazzling light, locked on somewhere underground.
Ray-like spells were emitted from his staff, directly piercing the muddy surface and accurately shooting into the ground.
laugh!
The dissociation spell hit a phaerinn with a creature level of sixteen.
The power of spells has always been huge, especially combat spells like dissociation that only focus on killing. Logically speaking, if the flesh and blood body of a high-level creature is hit head-on by dissociation, there is a high probability that it will die directly, or at least be severely injured.
.
But under the watchful eye of Karthus.
The moment the dissociation spell hit the Ferrin magic sunken beneath the ground, it seemed to have been affected by an invisible interference, and its power dropped by nearly half, becoming like an ordinary sixth-ring spell.
"This is magic. It's really tricky."
Karsus frowned slightly.
Absorbing magic is the magic-like ability of the phaerinn, which means that this ability will grow with the growth of the phaerimm. The stronger the phaerimm, the stronger it is at absorbing magic.
At the same level, it is not easy for an arcanist to kill the phaerim.
On the other side, the powerful Felin Demon Kui already sensed something was wrong when he saw that Karsus could cast spells instantly.
A seventh-level spell is cast instantly, which means the opponent is a legendary spellcaster.
Looking at Karsus' youthful face and eyes, the Felin Demon Kui was a little shocked.
"This person doesn't look like a great arcanist who uses immortality."
"So young, maybe less than twenty years old, and you have already entered the legendary field!"
"Hey, this kid is so terrifying, we can't keep him here."
The Phayling Demon Kui memorized Karsus's appearance, and streams of spiritual power radiated from his twisted body, recording Karsus' information and passing it on to his kin in other places.
It's just that...the psychic signal was isolated just after it was transmitted a few hundred meters.
Karsus has long used a spiritual barrier to cover his mission area, blocking the transmission of information between the phaerinn demons.
Under the drizzling haze, Karsus looked at the ground with calm eyes. His eyes seemed to penetrate the soft soil and saw the phaerinn magic sunflower below.
"The Great Dissociation Technique."
If the dissociation spell can't kill him, then use the great dissociation spell... Karsus thought.
The staff waved casually.
The ninth-level dissociation technique was like a thick laser beam, instantly hitting the Felin Demon Sunflower.
The Phayling Demon Sunflower resisted the Dissociation Spell and did not suffer multiple injuries. The magic absorption effect on the Great Dissociation Spell was limited. After being hit by the Great Dissociation Spell, its body froze.
Then.
In a desperate wailing, Felin Demon Kui's flesh-worm-like body was turned into dust by magical power and blended into the soil.
Karsus braved the drizzle and, after taking care of the high-ranking phaelim, continued to kill the other phaelim. After a few days, he left this rolling hilly area, only to
The remains of the pharynx were left all over the place.
In the following days, Karsus traveled to many places, using skillful and powerful spells to deal with Feilin Mokui.
Because of his great achievements, especially his too young age, the name Karsus gradually appeared in the ears of many great arcanists and elders of Mo Kui.
As time passed and tempered by the flames of war, Karsus gradually matured.
Because he had been worried about the future of the Netheril Empire, his originally youthful face was stained with a trace of vicissitudes visible to the naked eye.
In the blink of an eye, three years passed.
Karsus gained enough wealth, and also learned how to build the core of the magic network, as well as the eleven-ring mountain-cutting technique, gravity reversal technique and other standard equipment for creating a floating city.
It took several months to complete the floating city of Karsus, which he named the Silver Scale City.
The launch of the Silver Scale City also means that Karsus has officially become a great arcanist and the mainstay of Netheril.
Thousands of Grand Arcanists can only marvel at this rising star of the Grand Arcanist, whose demonic talent has left thousands of Grand Arcanists in awe.
The City of Silver Scales has many advanced designs belonging to Karsus.
Even arcanists who are full of new and wonderful ideas are amazed by it.
Coupled with the terrifying speed of Karsus' emergence, a large number of ordinary arcanists were attracted to Karsus, thinking that he was the most likely person to become the new king of arcanists in the future, and joined his floating city.
At the same time, Karsus also invited Garen to the Silverscale City.
"City of Silver Scales."
Each floating city has its own name and city emblem to distinguish it from other floating cities.
The emblem of the City of Silver Scales is a majestic dragon with crown-like horns.
Obviously, Karthus directly used the image of Galleon.
"Teacher, I heard that dragons generally like glory and fame. How about it? I'm doing pretty well, right?"
Karsus smiled softly and said to Garen.
Jia Long nodded and said: "You are serious and you are worthy of my teachings for so many years."
Karsus looked at the surface of the earth and said: "The earth is currently in raging war and is not peaceful. You might as well live with me in the Silver Scale City."
In the sky above the Silver Scale City, Garen's eyes swept across the floating city.
After a few seconds, he shook his head and said to Karsus who was not far away: "I don't like places with too many people. Besides, do you think I will care about the threat of the Felin Demon Sunflower?"
Compared with being in the Arcanist's city, where he has to endure piles of curious eyes no matter where he goes, Garen prefers to stay in the quiet canyon that is his home base.
Karsus smiled slightly and said: "How could it be possible? Teacher's strength is unfathomable."
Even after becoming a Grand Arcanist, he still couldn't understand Garen's level of strength.
Through what he heard from other arcanists, Karthus knew the identity of Galleon's Calamity Silver, and also knew that Galleon had led to the demise of an ancient empire thousands of years ago.
But, like everyone else, no one knows where Galleons come from.
This mysterious and powerful dragon teacher occupied most of Karsus' life. Although he was curious about Garen's origin and purpose, Garen did not take the initiative to mention it, and he never took the initiative to ask.
In addition, although Karthus knew how powerful Garon was, he never asked Garon to help Netheril.
Garen told him this when he was still young.
The war with the phaerinn is a setback for the Nether Empire, but it is also an opportunity. If it can be overcome safely, this kingdom of arcanists will be reborn from the ashes and take further steps.
Karthus approved of Gallon's idea.
So he believed that the war needed to be ended by Nether's arcanists themselves.
"Teacher, I haven't seen Miss Sister for a long time."
"Do you have any news about her?"
After saying that, Karsus hesitated for a while and asked Garen hesitantly.
Garen laughed and said: "You are still thinking about your sister, she is very good and has been paying attention to you."
"But she also has her own affairs, so she won't show up during this period."
Karsus nodded slightly, his face became serious, and said: "That's fine, I need to focus on dealing with Feilin Mokui now and let Netheril escape from the quagmire of war."
Looking at the mature Karsus, Garon said: "You are already a great arcanist and have the ability to decide the situation of the battle."
"Think about how to end this war in the way of the Grand Arcanist."
After a brief chat with Karsus, Garen returned to the original canyon.
He maintains communication with Iolum and has been paying attention to Karsus's movements and information. Karsus has the time mark left by Galleon.
If Karsus encounters fatal danger, Garleon can arrive instantly through time teleportation.
after.
Karsus, who became the Grand Arcanist, led the Arcanists of the Silverscale City, controlled this newly born floating city, and continued the crusade against the Phaelim Demon Sun.
Relying on his proficiency, a wide variety of legendary spells, and an almost endless supply of magic power, Karsus achieved great results.
He led the arcanists to kill and even capture alive the elders of the Demon Sun Temple again and again.
At the same level, the situation that the arcanist is not the opponent of the phaerim does not seem to be true here in Karsus.
Since Karthus became the Grand Arcanist, Netheril's long-term decline has tended to be reversed, and the situation has gradually improved.
Therefore, more arcanists believe that Karthus will take Iolam's place.
When the King of Arcanists never showed up, the new Grand Arcanist's prestige increased day by day, chasing Iolum's fame.
Light of Nether... This is the honorific title given to Karthus by many ordinary arcanists.
But this situation is not what Gallon wants to see.
Karthus' talent is terrifying.
However, in the original historical trajectory, he did not have the guidance of famous teachers such as Garon and the Goddess of Magic, so he took many detours in his childhood. After becoming a great arcanist, he needed a period of time to accumulate his own magic knowledge.
But this time it's different.
Thanks to the guidance of Garen and the Goddess of Magic from an early age, this guy's demonic magical talent has been fully utilized, and his combat power increases every day. The Goddess of Magic also gave him blessings and protection, making Karsus's magic power almost unlimited.
To him, the phaerinn's restraint on the arcanist was not that scary.
Under such circumstances, Karthus no longer thought about learning new spells to save Netheril.
He pursues powerful spells that can withstand the weakening of magic-absorbing magic and directly kill the spells of the Felin Demon Sunflower.
Because he could eliminate the legendary elders among the phaerimms one by one to achieve victory, Karthus frequently participated in wars and rarely conducted new spell research.
Due to his outstanding achievements, Karthus became more and more confident.
In several subsequent communications with Garen, Garen could clearly feel the high-spirited and confident mental state of his apprentice.
"Teacher, Felin Mokui's magic-absorbing magic is not very restrained by me."
"I can kill their leaders one by one, and then the Demon Sunfield will be destroyed."
Karsus said confidently.
"After leading Nether to victory, I felt that I might be able to become the new king of arcanists."
"Now I have the title of Light of Nether."
To the outside world, Karthus appears to be a wise, mature, and knowledgeable great arcanist, but in front of Garen, he still occasionally behaves like a young man.
For example, at this time, Karthus was obviously showing off his achievements to Garen, hoping to gain Garen's recognition.
In response, Galen praised him in a timely manner: "I see the shadow of Iolum in you, your future achievements will not be worse than him."
Karsus left the canyon happily, and after returning to the Floating City, he became the leader of the arcanists who showed no emotion or anger.
After he left, the silver dragon rubbed the dragon scales on his chin and looked at the direction Karsus left with a strange look in his eyes.
"Young man, you seem to have gone astray."
"It seems that my teacher needs to correct you."
Garen whispered to himself.
He knew that Karsus could no longer be allowed to develop like this.
If Karsus thought that he could defeat the phaerinn by relying solely on his own strength, and if he really had this ability, wouldn't the ascension spell be in vain?
Now, Karthus needs to be given a good blow to his self-confidence and let him know the horror of the phaerinn.
So Garen communicated with Iolum.
"Iolum, I think you would really like to meet Karsus, the Light of Nether."
After receiving Galleon's message, Iolum was also very interested.
He also paid attention to Karthus.
This talented young arcanist, in Iolum's view, is indeed the most promising candidate to succeed him and become the new king of arcanists in thousands of years.
After Iolum became the king of the magic sunflower and took charge of the magic sunflower domain, he had already had the idea of abdicating the throne.
He wants to live in the dark and secretly protect the Nether Empire. In this way, he, the king of arcanists of the old era, will be like a nuclear weapon and will make many enemies of the Nether Empire afraid to act rashly.
As for the new Arcanist King...Karthus is a suitable choice.
But before that, Iolum decided to try Karthus' power himself.
Since you want to become the new king of arcanists, let's try it with an old guy like yourself first.
...........
One week later.
The King of the Demon Sunflower issued a formal and solemn declaration of war to the Light of Nether.
The content of the gauntlet clearly states that if Karsus can win the battle with the King of the Sunflowers, then the Phaerin Sunflowers will retreat to the depths of the earth and no longer invade Netheril.
As for failure... it means handing over all the captives captured by the Arcanist.
This Gauntlet is also a Styx contract, which takes effect under the witness of Styx, which means that after the two parties are determined, the loser must fulfill the content promised in the Gauntlet, otherwise the soul will be taken away by Styx.
Sink in the River Styx for life after life.
The River Styx, the great arcanists know this river.
This is a river that runs through the Nine Hells, the Bottomless Abyss, the Gray Field and many other outer planes. Its status in the multiverse is equivalent to the arteries in the human body and is very important.
After discussing with many great arcanists, Karthus finally accepted the challenge.
Faced with such an opportunity to end the war, Karsus was unwilling to miss it.
Moreover, he believed that the so-called King of Demon Sunflowers would not be his opponent. Karsus knew very well what kind of talents and abilities he possessed.
A few days later.
A mountain range stretching for hundreds of kilometers was used as the stage for the battle between the Light of Nether and the King of Demonic Sunflowers.
Many phaerimms and arcanists are watching here nervously.
Garen passed the time mark and lay down in the canyon where birds were singing and the flowers were fragrant. He closed his eyes slightly, changed into a comfortable posture, and became an audience comfortably.
The legendary spells that destroyed the world were emitted one after another from the hands of the Demon Sunflower King and the Light of Nether. Mountains hundreds of kilometers long trembled and wailed in response to them.
The sky was torn apart and the earth was shattered.
Towering mountains collapsed into countless rubbles in the aftermath of the spell.
The deafening noise was like the end of the world, and the magic network was constantly being broken and repaired.
At the same time, due to the violent elemental tide, all outside detection spells were disrupted, and no arcanist or phaerim could see the true situation of this duel.
But on the surface, the two seem to be on equal terms.
But... Garen, who was watching the battle with a time stamp, covered his face and could hardly bear to watch.
"Sure enough, ginger is still spicier when old."
Iolum, who maintained the appearance of a phaerinn, defeated Karsus step by step without even using his full strength.
The rich accumulation of spells and countless legendary spells that Karsus is proud of seem to pale in comparison with Iolum, a demigod arcanist. No matter what spell he uses, Iolum is
He can find restrained spells and break countermeasures in an instant, and he does so with ease.
Moreover, many of the spells used by Iolum were completely unknown to Karsus.
The main battle between spellcasters is to see which one has more and stronger spells, and whose reaction is faster and more timely.
Unfortunately, Iolum surpassed Karthus in every aspect. If he didn't use his full strength, Karthus could no longer hold on.
"Light of Nether?"
"Jie, it's nothing more than that."
"I don't even bother to kill you. I'll just wait and fall to pieces with your Nether floating city."
The terrifying and ugly Demon Sun King sneered and said to the lost Karsus.
After he finished speaking, he turned around and left without even looking at Karsus, regardless of his reaction.
"This villain looks quite similar."
Garen, who was an audience member, muttered quietly.
He looked at Karsus' gloomy expression and shook his head imperceptibly.
Karsus, just like the Nether Empire in the past, had never encountered a single setback in his entire life. He had always been on a smooth journey, advancing like a son of destiny.
This is dangerous.
This time, being defeated by Iolum in a devastating way was the first setback Karsus encountered.
Under his secret gaze, Karsus fell down on the shattered remains of the earth with a look of despair on his face. His whole body was covered with dust and dirt, and he looked quite embarrassed.
He was motionless, like a lifelike human sculpture.
Time gradually came to evening.
The sun's light dims and dusk comes.
Dim yellow light shone on Karthus' face.
His eyes moved slightly, and after looking up at the floating city in the sky, his eyes slowly became bright again.
Karsus stood up, patted the dust on his body, took a deep breath, and looked in the direction where Iolum left.
"As long as I am here in Netheril, the floating city will never fall."
He clenched his fists and his eyes burned with fire.
Garen breathed a sigh of relief when he saw this scene.
He was quite worried that this blow would be too great and Karsus would be unable to recover.
Fortunately, the man he taught was not useless except for his talent. Karsus had a strong heart, and this severe beating from Iolum would make him stronger.
"How do you deal with the King of Demonic Sunflowers who is difficult to defeat with existing spells?"
Garen opened his eyes and looked in the direction of Karsus.
the other side.
In the battle with Iolum, Karsus deeply understood the terrifying strength of this 'King of Demonic Sunflowers', which was far beyond the level of ordinary great arcanists.
He can feel it.
The Demon Sunflower King didn't use all his strength in the battle with him, and defeated him easily.
If the other party wanted to kill him, he wouldn't be able to survive for even a moment.
At this time, Karsus thought of what Teacher Dragon once taught him.
"A spell is the intention of the caster. It is the power to shape reality. It should be omnipotent."
Karsus took a few deep breaths, closed his eyes and opened them again.
"I will use the method of an arcanist and the method of a spellcaster to deal with all the phaerimms."
Karthus finally woke up.
His behavior before was no different from that of some rough warriors.
After this battle, Karthus recovered the true power of the Grand Arcanist—the omnipotent magical creativity.
After that, due to the defeat of the Light of Nether, the morale of the Nether Empire dropped a few points, while the morale of the Phayling Demon Kui side skyrocketed, and the battle situation that had just improved for the arcanists was once again brought back to its original shape.
Karsus returned to the Silver Scale City.
He stepped into his mage tower, closed the door tightly, and did not see any visiting guests. Even the Grand Arcanist could not make Karthus leave the mage tower.
Some people say that this genius of the Nether Empire could not bear the blow and chose to isolate himself.
However, some people say that the light of Nether has never been extinguished, but is only accumulating a brighter light.
