Chapter 164
The five underground floors of the central tower of the Black Crystal City are divided into about ten isolated areas. In the center of each area is a small room full of magic arrays on six sides. It is empty. There is only a bed, a small square table, and a stone toilet. It looks ordinary, but the space magic array is used in it. This is the highest-level prison of the Sun Temple. It has been built for more than 400 years and has not been used much, and many people have forgotten it. But today, the prison has welcomed two prisoners of equal status.
Hicks entered the room. Behind him, a tutor slowly closed the stone door, and it became dark. After about a few seconds, he slowly emitted a soft white light from the magic decorations on the four walls and roofs, shining the room hazyly. Hicks swept on all sides and sat down with a calm face.
When he was surrounded by eight tutors, he knew that the matter had been exposed. At this time, if he resisted, the eight tutors would join hands and kill him into scum in less than a few seconds, just so that they could get what they wanted. If they did not resist, they did not have a reason to take action immediately, then they would not die, because For those mentors who are in the same camp as him, they will try their best to protect him. So he let several tutors take away the god gun and magic slates and followed them back to the temple.
"I don't know what's going on with Eric," Hicks said hatefully. These stone houses were extremely closed. Although he knew that Eric stayed in this prison, he could not communicate with him. The senior management of the temple may be worried that the two would join hands to create some unnecessary trouble for them before separating them.
At the same time, the high-level council hall of the Black Crystal Tower.
This is the place where the mentor meeting is held. It is not very big. There are twelve chairs on a long table, but in fact, because of magic research, there are only about seven or eight people who often come here. These people have gentle discussions here, even on the eve of the decisive battle with the Mage Association, they also He is determined, his face is indifferent, and he looks harmonious. But today, there are not only more than a dozen people sitting here, but also blushing, and the whole room is filled with hysterical manic manic atmosphere.
A few minutes ago, all the high-level officials of the Temple of the Sun were gathered, including two detached mentors and those research maniacs who usually never came here. After the highest tutor announced the crimes of Hicks and Eric, they first were in an uproar, and then the whole audience was silent. When a tutor proposed to kill two people. After that, the council chamber exploded and gradually evolved into the situation above.
"Guys, maybe they are indeed unpardonable, but the two mentors are a powerful force, which is very important to maintain the balance between us and the Mage Association. For the benefit of the organization, I firmly oppose any form of capital punishment." A tutor said loudly. This tutor is an opposition, and he is also known as a member of the ground faction in private. But when he said this, even his companions despised him, but they couldn't think of any other reason to argue. They just looked at him.
"If according to what you said, can't we punish them at all, then Mirba will die in vain." A tutor scolded, "Your idea is simply ridiculous."
"Why am I ridiculous? I'm just stating the truth. Don't be emotional..."
"Hahaha, I'm emotional. This is really a big joke. You don't even talk about the basic truth in order to save his life. According to you, I'll find a few people to kill you tomorrow. Don't you have to be responsible?"
"You..."
"Enough, don't quarrel." Finn shouted loudly. Seeing that the two of them calmed down, he looked at the two great tutors who were silent next to him. One of these two people is called Faris, with Cretan blood, and the other is a pure earthly person, named Blair· Aston. Although the pedigree theory is generally regarded as an outdated theory, it is an important factor in the context of the common family inheritance in the world of mages. These two people, one belongs to the Cretan faction and the other belongs to the earth faction, but their personal friendship is not bad.
Aston was silent for a long time and said, "What you say makes sense."
For this incident, Faris was completely on the side of the Cretans. Hearing this, he laughed angrily and said, "It makes sense. Let's talk about it. What are you going to do with them?"
Everyone stared at the inexplicable tutor to see if he was going to say something amazing again. He really didn't let them down. He paused for a while and then said, "Exited into space."
There was another uproar in the council chamber. Ex exile in space is an ancient criminal law. It is the ancient mage association to punish magicians who have made major mistakes but have special achievements in magic. If he is under the death penalty, his research results cannot be left behind, but he is not sentenced to heavy sentences and cannot be convincing and warned. Later generations came up with such a move. The exiled will be loaded into a special magic guide container similar to a space capsule. His mobility is strictly limited, and his physiological activities are almost completely stagnant, which only keeps his consciousness awake. He is so lonely and imprisoned in the orbit of near-gear space. After ten years, he will be picked up. If he is not crazy. , I will definitely explain everything honestly.
Although the situation of Hicks is different, this method is also applicable. The Cretan faction dominates the whole Temple of the Sun, and it is absolutely impossible to let Hicks go, but the opposition has a slight advantage in power. They will never die. In fact, space exile is no different from death, because these two people will never be released one day, so the Cretan faction is very much in favor of it. As for the opposition, although they are not very satisfied, they also know that this compromise is the limit that the other party can accept. As long as they live, everything is hopeful. , so I don't object.
But it's one thing not to object, and it's another whether to do so or not. Faris said, "Are you confused? Have you forgotten the magic fault? How are we going to send them up?
The magic fault refers to a thin natural forbidden field under the earth's satellite orbit. It appeared for more than 500 years, that is, after the first mage war. No one knows the specific reason. With the emergence of modern technology, people's understanding of space has made new progress, but the magical world has been unable to keep up with the pace of exploration because of this fault. Instead, it has fallen behind natural science. Because of the magic fault, the criminal law of space exile has been de factoted.
"We can't send it, but someone can." Aston Road.
Faris was about to refute when he suddenly understood what he meant and stopped talking.
The supreme mentor, Fien, looked at the situation in the field and saw that no one objected, so he made a final decision on the fate of Hicks and Eric.
Six days later, Hicks was lying on ** conceiving a magic theory. Suddenly, a strange light came out on the wall of the room. Under this light, Hicks became drowsy. Although he tried not to fall asleep, he could not defeat the power of this super magic array and fell asleep. Then came two mages and put a black and slightly transparent sphere on his edge. A light shot from the ball, and then Hicks was ingested, and his consciousness regained consciousness. He lost the feeling of his whole body and control of his body. He didn't know what had happened and stayed for a while. When he found that this seemed to be the legendary container for space exiles, he couldn't help shouting in horror, but his body did not respond and there was no sound at all.
Several mage mentors took the two black balls to the Americas by plane, where a space shuttle was about to fly into space, and it would replace the teleportation to send Hicks and Eric into satellite orbit.
Inside the ball, Hicks is full of resentment, and his hatred for the Cretans has burned to the extreme. And Eric is also full of hatred, but he knows that he may not be able to come back in his life.
Wang Qi returned to the council's own mage tower for more than half a month, but the Sun Temple did not move. He did not announce the secret of the magic guide stone in advance. In addition to studying the silver book every day, he explored in the spiritual space with Hiroda. Ye Feng was busy studying notes and wanted to reach the tutor level as soon as possible. Under the guidance of Wang Qi, he made rapid progress. When Singer came over, he found that Wang Qi was very idle, so he pulled him to help. The three spiritual magic tutors joined hands. Although Carol was in a controlled state, he made rapid progress because his knowledge was not affected.
One day, in the mage tower of Singer, the two finally made a breakthrough progress and initially improved the spiritual split. Only some details were left. There was no need to mention that Singer was full of joy.
The next day, Wang Qi was about to go to Singer to complete the research as soon as possible, when Klein suddenly came. Klein had a good relationship with him and came to ask some magic questions from time to time, so he was not surprised to see him come to Wang Qi, but looking at his face, he knew that something was wrong.
Sure enough, Klein's first sentence is:
"Mentor Wang Qi, the Sun Temple has just given us a notice."
Wang Qixin said: Finally, it's here. Seeing the worry on Hiluda's face, he smiled at her, signaling that she didn't have to worry, and then said to Klein, "What did they say?"
"Within three days," Klein looked at him, felt that his reaction was a little strange, and said, "Give you to them."
Wang Qi sneered and said, "Ha, the Sun Temple is still so domineering. Do they really think they are invincible?"
"In terms of strength, it is true," Klein said. "Although they have recently lost two mentors, their comprehensive strength is still above the mage association. Even if the mage above the tutor level fights, they will only have the upper hand. Unless we join hands with the association of mages, we can suppress them."
"Yes, as long as we join hands with the Mage Association, they will have nothing to do with us," Wang Qi said seriously. "Mr. Klein, help me tell the Roman tutor and ask him to call all the tutors of the council to have a meeting. I have something important to announce."
"What's the matter?" Klein said in astonishment.
"That's what you just said," Wang Qi said with a meaningful smile, "United with the Mage Association."
Klein stayed for a stay and then left in a hurry. A few hours later, all the senior officials of the council came to the council hall. Roman said a few words and let Wang Qi, the protagonist, come to the podium.
