I Ascend To the Throne of God with Arcane Magic Chapter 278

Chapter 278 Duke Ward takes the blame again!

Outside Bingfeng City, Li Si prepared an underground hiding place with spatial coordinates in advance.

In the originally dark cave, the space fluctuated and distorted. A figure wearing a black mage robe suddenly appeared in mid-air and fell to the ground in a somewhat embarrassed manner.

Li Si grinned, feeling the severe pain coming from all parts of his body, and decided to lie down for a while first.

Although Li Si successfully pretended to be a big boss this time, as a silver professional, he fooled a group of top gold-level experts in the kingdom, but the price Li Si paid was also quite high.

 Severe injuries are mostly caused by the use of energy beyond the body's tolerance, which causes great load and backlash to the body.

This is because Li Si has a special talent. If it were a mage of the same level, under the same circumstances, his body would explode and he would die without a trace.

In addition, the elemental power accumulated over the years in the legendary accessory [Sphinx's Wisdom] has also been exhausted. Before Li Si fully masters this legendary equipment, he can only slowly wait for it to recover on its own.

The other thing is the magic props consumed this time. As for the mission rewards given to the Virgin Mary players, it is nothing to Li Si.

 For Li Si, who received a large gift package from the Hansong Chamber of Commerce in Beifeng City, this amount of wealth was nothing.

But at the same time, the previous goal was achieved this time, and the impact was quite large. This "fireworks show" can be said to have affected the entire Bingfeng City, leaving a deep impression on everyone.

  Looking back, you can explore the dream world to see if you have achieved the intended goal.

However, at least Li Si does not intend to return to Bingfeng City tonight at least.

 First, because Li Si is currently seriously injured, it will take some time to return to physical activities without being affected.

 On the other hand, Li Si does not dare to return to Bingfeng City now.

When he left Ice Peak City using [Advanced Teleportation Technique] just now, he saw the [Top High Energy Bomb] sent to the central courtyard of the Ice Castle Palace through [Teleportation Technique]. Although the explosion was completed in the end, the huge golden light pillar produced even Directly destroying the protective array of the palace.

  But the location of the explosion was not in the atrium of the destination, but in the air directly above the palace.

 The overall architecture of the palace was not affected much, only the tall central spire was damaged.

The cause of all this was not the desperate gold-level priests of the palace, but a sturdy middle-aged man wearing white single clothes.

The [Top High-Energy Bomb] was caught in his hand, and all the power was spread into the air.

This middle-aged man Li Si is very familiar with, the only legendary strongman in the Dilon Kingdom, the legendary berserker [Wrath of the North] Hitti Whitman.

Li Si felt the hostility from this person at the last moment before teleporting away. Although there was only a trace, it still made him feel like he had fallen into an ice cellar.

Provoking the Dillon Kingdom may not seem like a big deal to this person. He is not interested in taking action against the professionals under the legend.

However, in the dangerous situation that most of the entire Ice Castle Palace might be destroyed by [top-level high-energy bombs], this big man still took action.

terrible!

Is that the power of the legendary strong man?

Just the coercion and hostility made me tremble with fear, and I felt like I might go see the God of Death in the next moment!

Li Si was lying on the ground in the hiding place, thinking with lingering fear.

 Can't commit suicide anymore!

 Or maybe I can't dance so happily in front of this person. Who knows if this big boss will take action directly next time.

But fortunately, in the subsequent plan, Li Si was not planning to take action personally, but was hiding in the dark and quietly doing things.

 Feeling that his body had regained some strength, Li Si sat up, took out the healing potion from the storage ring and drank it.

Now he doesn't even have the magic power to use healing magic.

However, he could feel that the earrings transformed into [Sphinx's Wisdom] were slowly drawing elemental power from the surroundings into his body, slowly healing the wounds on his body.

 His body is slowly getting better, and he even feels a little rejuvenated. Li Si has a hunch that after his body recovers completely, it may become stronger.

 Find wealth and honor in danger!

Li Si sighed and called out the system panel.

Just when he was out of the battle, he heard the system prompt.

  [You are out of combat! ]

  [You have completed an attack on the Kingdom of Dillon-Ice Peak City-Ice Castle Palace. This is an unprecedented feat! ]

  [You have gained the special feat [Provocateur]! ]

 [Special Expertise [Provocateur]: When you provoke hostile forces or opponents (including verbal provocation, action provocation, use of provocation skills, etc.), the mental resistance of the provocation target will be slightly reduced, and your own movement speed will be +30%]

  [You have achieved a new milestone [The Pain of Ice Peak City]! ]

[Milestone [Painful Fireworks in Ice Peak City]: The actions of Moriarty, the Secret Order of Death, made Ice Peak City, which had not experienced turmoil for decades, once again taste the feeling of pain. No one can forget that scene. Crazy fireworks. National legend +1]

　　[Your identity [Death Secret Order-Moriarty] obtains a special status. Whenever you appear in Ice Peak City as Moriarty, the [Dillon Kingdom-Undying] status will be triggered! ]—

 The new milestone has gained a bit of national legend, which is pretty good.

As for the newly acquired specialty [Provocateur], Li Si thinks this skill is very strange.

 Increase movement speed?

 Is this because you are afraid that you will be beaten to death if you provoke someone, so you make yourself run faster?

 Besides, as a good young man who is loyal, reliable, honest, and treats others peacefully, how could I be a provocateur?

Li Si shook his head, then took out a mattress from the storage ring and lay it on the ground casually.

Tonight's operations have drained all Li Si's energy. Just carefully observing all the golden experts present and not letting them see that he is hiding behind a strong exterior is enough to test his mental toughness!

That was a double-digit gold expert. Fortunately, he was bluffed at the beginning!

 Otherwise, if they really come together, Li Si will have no choice but to run away directly!

 Bingfeng City should be very lively now!

But this is none of my business!

Li Si soon fell asleep, and darkness and calm returned to this hiding place hidden under the ice sheet.

Different from Li Si who left, Ice Peak City and Ice Castle Palace are now lively.

Teams of soldiers set off from the military camp and quickly rushed to various important locations in Bingfeng City. The atmosphere was solemn and serious.

Bingfeng City, which was already tense due to the bombing of the Garza Warehouse a few days ago, suddenly entered a wartime state.

 The streets that were already sparsely crowded at night were now even less crowded. From time to time, a pair of eyes peeked out from the windows of the houses on both sides of the road.

 In the Ice Castle Palace, many guards are stepping up their patrols, not missing any suspicious location.

 [Wrath of the North] disappeared from the scene after holding the [Top High Energy Bomb].

However, all the royal ministers present knew the legendary boss who was sitting in the palace, and it was not surprising for him to appear.

Everyone present was still a little frightened. The man in black robe who claimed to be Moriarty just now left them with a deep shock.

Not to mention the weird and unpredictable means of appearance, the grand blue meteor shower and the terrifying final golden beam of light made them fearful of the instigator, Moriarty.

The decapitated tall tower in the center of the palace still reflects the terror of the golden beam of light just now.

 “Lord Abbas, His Majesty the King calls you over.”

 A palace attendant walked up to Abbas, who had a dark face, and said respectfully.

"OK."

Abbas was stunned for a moment, then he responded and followed the waiter towards the depths of the palace.

This time, the place where King Lucar received him was not in the study room high in the kingdom, but somewhere underground in the palace.

Abbas knocked lightly on the thick door, opened the door and walked in after receiving permission.

This is directly below the Ice Castle Palace, the core of the magic circle protection, and the surrounding solid walls also block the prying eyes of outsiders. Abbas entered and respectfully saluted King Lukar who was sitting on the throne.

 At the same time, Anna and several other core kingdom ministers were present.

 Although it is underground, it is also luxuriously decorated, and it looks like a safe place has been prepared long ago.

 “Abbas is here, sit down!”

Lukar looked up and said with a smile.

Abbas nodded respectfully and sat carefully on the sofa at the end, the sound of the armor on his body clanking against each other.

 There is no way, everyone here has a higher status than him.

"Abbas, I just asked you to come here to confirm one thing."

Lukar tapped the table with his left hand and looked seriously at Abbas, who was wearing armor.

“Is that Moriarty the one who destroyed West Castle?”

 “Yes, Your Majesty.”

Although Abbas didn't want to recall that tragic time, he could only nod heavily at this moment.

"That was the first time I saw that person. He claimed to be Moriarty from the Death Secret Order. Every time he appeared, he was wearing a black robe. He was a pale middle-aged man, but I'm not sure who he was. It's not his appearance.”

 "The Secret Order of Death Moriarty"

 Lucar murmured, feeling very bad.

 Last time when he received the news that West Castle was destroyed, he noticed Moriarty, but at that time he thought that this should be a counterattack from the Kingdom of Fes, so he didn't pay too much attention to it.

 Targeting and attacking the Kingdom of Fes will definitely bring a lot of losses and pain, and he knows this well.

But I really didn't expect that this Moriarty would go to such an extent and dare to attack Ice Peak City and Ice Castle Palace. This was simply a direct declaration of war on the Kingdom of Dillon.

So now Lukar is a little undecided.

 If this Moriarty was really arranged by the Kingdom of Fes, he would not have provoked and provoked the Kingdom of Dillon like this.

 At present, most of the power of the Kingdom of Fes is devoted to the war with the Kingdom of Berdych, and there is no spare power to open up the northern battlefield.

If the king of the Kingdom of Fes still had sense, even if he knew that he was planning to invade, at most he would only destroy the two castles in the Luoxue Mountains.

And this Moriarty, and his self-proclaimed Death Secret Order, acted like a madman, with no regard for any consequences, just like those evil churches that advocate chaos and blood and fire.

“Does the Secret Order of Death have this organization?”

　Not just Abbas, all the ministers present shook their heads.

Even though they are basically noble families with a long history in the kingdom, they have never heard of this organization.

“The name sounds like an organization that believes in the gods of the Death Gods, but the Death Gods now have always been very low-key, and I have never heard of any organizations related to the Death Secret Order.”

 Minister of Military Affairs Armand Cardin is a majestic and domineering old man. Although his hair is gray, the confidence and domineering exuding from his body are eye-catching.

 “That's it.”

Although Lukar knew something about those extraordinary forces, most of them were about the Orthodox Church, and he didn't know much about other extraordinary organizations.

 “Abbas, how strong is Moriarty?”

Lukar thought for a while, then continued to ask Abbas, and then added something.

"Lord Whitman has already told me that the last golden beam of light was not Moriarty's own strength, but the effect of a powerful magic item."

Abbas also breathed a sigh of relief when he heard this. If that terrifying golden light was also Moriarty's method, he really wouldn't have the courage to continue facing Moriarty.

“He should have a very strong gold-level mage, although his aura looks strange.”

“But there is no doubt about his strength, and he should have a way to explode, otherwise I can't think of those dozens of blue meteors as his own strength.”

Abbas said seriously, but the more he did this, the more strange he felt about Moriarty.

"Your Majesty, when we were at West Castle, Moriarty finally told me that he would meet again in Ice Peak City. I didn't pay attention at the time. Now that I think about it, he may have planned all this."

 “Is that so?”

Lukar's face was a little gloomy. These facts proved that this Death Secret Order was really directly provoking the Kingdom of Dillon.

 Could it be that this is the plan of the Kingdom of Fes, to divert its own energy and delay the invasion of them as much as possible.

 There are too many possibilities, which gives Lukar a headache.

 This matter is so serious that it may even affect the prestige of the kingdom.

 “Do you have any ideas?”

 Lucar looked at the other people present.

Anna was silent for a while and then said:

"No matter what, the reason why Moriarty did so much is to cause chaos in Ice Peak City."

“I don't know if the West Warehouse explosion two days ago has something to do with them, but I think we should pay more attention to it.”

“Especially if there is any relationship between the Order of Death and Duke Ward.”

 Duke Ward!

 Lucar suddenly found that he had ignored this possibility. This possibility was very high!

If this is the case, the Death Secret Order attacked West Castle, Ice Peak City and Ice Castle Palace all to help Duke Ward relieve the pressure!

 The damned Order of Death!

 Damn Duke Ward!

Duke Ward didn't know it, but a big pot was suddenly placed on his head again.
