After crushing all the Magic Cores, Kyle returned to the safe room and accurately found Alice's position.
Seeing Kyle in a black suit, Zhan En instinctively bowed.
Kyle looked at Alice with a smile. "It's good that you're okay."
Alice excitedly hugged Kyle, then pulled Kyle's hand and said, "Yes, Mr. Zhan En eliminated all these monsters in an instant."
Kyle stroked Alice's head and thoughtfully said, "Zhan En, in the future, unless it's a matter of life and death, you can't act casually. Your task is to tutor Alice, understand?"
"Yes, Sir Kyle."
Kyle then said to Alice, "You have to study hard and don't always rely on Zhan En. Relying on external forces won't achieve practical growth."
Alice saw Kyle's serious expression and nodded.
"Where's Lincoln?
Have you seen him? "
As soon as Kyle's voice fell, the students immediately rushed to answer.
"President Lincoln?"
"Assistant Hart just took him away."
"It seems that the dean wants to see him?"
"President Lincoln is so cool. He eliminated all the monsters in the blink of an eye."
"It seems … he's even more powerful than the dean!"
Kyle nodded. "Okay, Alice, remember my words. I'm going to find Lincoln."
"Okay, bye, Big Brother!"
Watching Kyle leave, Alice stuck out her tongue. "Phew, I was scared to death. Big Brother's serious look is so scary."
Yril shook her head. "I think Big Brother Kyle is so handsome. Mr. Zhan En is really him … Oh."
"Shh!" Alice covered Yril's mouth. "This is a secret. You can't say it."
…
After activating the defensive magic array, Sarah observed the Academy's situation through her crystal ball. She happened to see Lincoln standing in front of the safe room.
Sarah breathed a sigh of relief after sensing that there were no Shadow Crawlers in the vicinity through the magic array.
"Who would have thought that Lincoln would really be able to do it. Next up are the remaining troops. The teachers of the academy should be able to handle them."
Ikarov stroked his white beard as well. "This Lincoln Hyena Blade, he usually doesn't show off, but today, he's done something extraordinary."
It didn't take long for the assistant to bring Lincoln to the Mage Tower. Sarah and Ikarov's stares made Lincoln's hair stand on end.
"Thanks to you, Guild Leader Lincoln, the Shadow Cult's plot didn't succeed," Sarah said enthusiastically.
Lincoln was dumbfounded. "That … has nothing to do with me."
Ikarov smiled. "You're too modest, President Lincoln."
Lincoln scratched his head. "But … things really aren't that simple this time."
Ikarov froze for a moment, then his expression gradually became serious. "Sure enough, I can't hide it from you, President Lincoln."
Sarah also smiled bitterly. "Yeah, Nigmo has a backup plan."
？？？
Lincoln was even more confused. He meant that someone else had gotten ahead of him, so things weren't that simple. However, Sarah and Ikarov seemed to have misunderstood.
Ikarov sighed. "Kegmo's blood sacrifice ceremony is still going on. I don't know where he got so much blood, but he only has one purpose, and that is to awaken the thing underground."
Lincoln's heart skipped a beat. Ikarov's words reminded him of something.
"There are fewer homeless people in the City of the Night recently …" Lincoln's pupils gradually contracted. "Damn it!
I should have known the seriousness of this problem! "
Sarah placed the crystal ball in the middle of the three of them, then used magic to activate a plan of the school.
"The school was built on the seal to suppress that monster. The layout of the whole school is a magic array."
"Nigmo manipulated George to destroy the office building of the Necromancer Branch. In fact, he had already opened a gap in the magic array."
Ikarov nodded in agreement. "So the blood sacrifice ceremony in the safe room is just a trick to lure the tiger away from the mountain. But we have to do something about it."
Lincoln frowned. "It's a flawless plan. So, no matter what, the blood sacrifice ceremony will open a hole. Let's see if the thing underground will be awakened."
"Roar!"
As soon as Lincoln's voice fell, a roar resounded through the world. In an instant, the City of the Night was shrouded in dark clouds, and the sky changed color!
"Huh?
Why did the weather suddenly change? "
The residents of the City of the Night had no idea what was going on.
"Didn't you hear that roar just now?
That legend … Maybe it's true? "
"It can't be, right?"
"The monster underground in the City of the Night!"
"Oh my god!
Run! "
According to the legend, before the empire split, a magic beast beyond level 9 was born. Wherever this magic beast set foot, the sky fell and the earth cracked, and the mountains and rivers were broken.
The mages completely lost the ability to chant spells in front of it, and the warriors couldn't even pick up their weapons!
In the end, the heroes of the empire took action. Under the leadership of the two heroes of the City of the Night, the Night Ranger – Vivian and the Night Guardian – Bauer, they set up an inescapable net over several months and finally sealed this magic beast.
However, this battle caused the empire to lose dozens of level 9 mages and war gods. Even Vivian and Bauer were seriously injured and were buried in the City of the Night.
A thousand years had passed, and many people had almost forgotten this past and treated it as a legend. Little did they know that the magic beast underground in the City of the Night was about to awaken!
…
"Even after a thousand years, that monster's strength still makes people feel despair." Ikarov shook his head and smiled bitterly.
"There are no more than ten recorded magic beasts beyond level 9. Even if the seal keeps draining its power, so what?"
Sarah turned off the crystal ball and said, "Judging from the aura, it's at least level 8, and more likely level 9. Against such a monster, let alone the City of the Night, even the current Free Kingdom is helpless."
Unlike a thousand years ago, due to the chaos of war and disputes, as well as the weakening of magic elements, the strength of humans was greatly reduced. There were only a few level 9 mages and war gods in the entire Free Kingdom.
Lincoln spread out his hands. "We can only go with the flow. Let's go and see if we can fix the seal."
Sarah and Ikarov looked at each other and then said, "That's the only thing we can do now."
The ground of the City of the Night cracked, the river flowed backwards, and the sky was terrifyingly gloomy.
The ground was constantly shaking, houses were constantly collapsing, and people were constantly crying.
At this time, the only people they could rely on were those in the Night City College.
Lincoln and the other two came to the broken office building of the necromancer branch. Traces of black smoke came out of the cracks.
"These buildings were designed with magic reinforcement and can resist level 7 attacks. I should have realized the seriousness of the problem." Ikarov's voice was filled with guilt and self-blame.
"It's not your fault. Nigmo is too cunning." Sarah patted Ikarov's shoulder.
