The bone of sin domain is king

Chapter 157 No.30 Act Seven. Finding the Lost Mage

At almost the same time, all the monsters in the entire territory of the crime capital felt this surging tide of magic power.

They all looked towards the territory of the flower of thorns, and some of the closer ones even extended a little perception. Although this behavior is almost equivalent to provoking a war on weekdays, everyone now knows that the flower of thorns is afraid of fate. It won't be long.

However, the lords of these monsters also have a certain IQ. When they sensed that there are two very powerful sources of magic power here, they also restrained their tentacles wisely.

Since there is a more powerful existence occupying that area, then I don't need to take the first shot. Most monsters choose to wait and see with such a mentality.

This is really cheap for Rosen and the others.

At this time, if they really surged up a large wave of monsters of the same level as the previous Flower of Thorns, enough to be named by the Alien Tribunal, then it is really hard to say what the consequences will be.

Now it has caused a huge deterrent effect, which can be regarded as an unintentional move.

If the magic power induced by the previous battle was too small, then other monsters would definitely think that Rosen and the others had fallen into a powerless state after the battle, instead of waiting and watching like they are now.

Since she needed to attack with all her strength, Tia did not deliberately restrain her power. After three consecutive spells, the Flower of Thorns was wiped out, and the entire neighborhood no longer existed.

It is also unclear whether it is the flower of thorns or the damage caused by Tia's magic. In short, the busiest street in the city of crimes has now become a flat square, and the only remaining thorns are quickly burned by the flames. Turned to ashes, blown in the wind.

The drifting ashes fell like rain, leaving gray marks on Rosen's head and shoulders.

"Actually, you actually killed that guy!"

The first man to speak was the escaped man. He showed an unbelievable expression, looked at Rosen, and finally stopped at Tia.

"Meteorite, Flame Torrent, and Thunder Bombardment are three third-ring spells. You are an intermediate mage? No, no, no, the fluctuation of magic power is a bit strange, it should be using another technique."

The man was originally asking Tia, but soon fell into a state of talking to himself. After a while, he woke up from the state of selfless thinking and stared at Tia closely.

"Are you from the Rainbow Tower?"

"of course."

Tia nodded and took out the Rainbow Key that symbolized her identity.

The colorful rainbow light shone, making the man's eyes brighten up.

"That's great. I thought I'd have to spend my whole life in this crime capital."

He leaned over, and seemed to notice that his body was quite tattered, and after tidying up a little, he introduced himself.

"My name is Paul Piedmont, the stationmaster of the Rainbow Tower's observation post in Ishtar, and a low-level mage in the second ring."

Second ring low-level mage.

Rosen had heard Tia mention the rank division of mages in his spare time before, starting from mage apprentices, and going up is the first to ninth ring mages, which are distinguished according to the number of mage rings that can be fully mastered.

Among them, the third ring and below are low-level, corresponding to the strength of ordinary people, which is the bronze level. The fourth to sixth rings are mid-level mages, who are also silver-level powerhouses. Above, the seven, eight, and ninth-level mages have A high-level mage with golden combat power, and a more powerful one is a legendary mage who has stepped into the legendary realm.

But in fact, the system of a mage and the system of ordinary people are not one-to-one correspondence. In the same rank, there will actually be a huge gap in strength. Paul, who escaped, also belonged to a low-level mage, but the difference could be seen at a glance.

However, the second-ring low-level mage means that this Mr. Paul has at least a Bronze-level combat power. Now that he has fallen to this point, it seems that monsters are not the only threat to this crime capital.

"Tia, come here on behalf of the Rainbow Tower to investigate the changes that have occurred in the Capital of Sin. As for these two, you can be regarded as my followers."

Tia said, then pointed to Rosen and Davos beside her.

"attendant."

Leaving aside Davos, Rosen is a person with similar strength to Tia, so it is too underestimated to be directly regarded as a follower.

However, he didn't mean to make excuses. What's more important now is to investigate the matter here, find the hot wind mercenary group, and regain the control core of Istar. Rosen shook his head, and then asked Paul.

"What about the others, I remember that there should be other mages in the observation post who came to investigate together, why are you the only one?"

As soon as he asked the words, tears welled up in Paul's eyes.

"...it's my fault, it's my fault, they all."

Paul fell to his knees and covered his face.

It seems that the remaining mages are in danger.

Tia looked at Rosen and sighed softly.

"We were already close to the core of the Capital of Crime, but the monsters that suddenly emerged dispersed our team. It took a week for me to rely on the tokens to find some of the corpses of other companions. The monsters here are generally better than the original ones. The type of it is stronger, and the previous flower of thorns is at least a monster with a hunting level above level five."

It took a while for Paul to catch his breath, and carefully explained what they had seen and heard along the way.

According to his speech, it seems that the monsters in the crime capital have become much stronger since they came last time. The specific reason is unknown, and they seem to be dominated by an existence from the central city.

They had originally planned to evacuate, but encountered two lord-level monsters on the way, and they were almost wiped out in the end.

And Paul himself, due to the interference of the chaotic magic power of the capital of crimes, has never been able to fully recover, and is often hunted down by other monsters, so there is no way to escape from the capital of crimes.

To make a team of Bronze rank mages so miserable, it seems that the monsters in this city of crimes have gone beyond common sense, and perhaps the leakage of chaotic magic power is more serious than previously imagined.

Tia also exchanged information and told Paul about the current situation in Istar and Asami.

"I didn't expect this to happen. I really shouldn't have organized a second expedition out of curiosity!"

The young mage seemed rather annoyed, beating his chest and feet.

"Have you noticed signs of other people passing by before?"

Rosen asked, although Paul's strength has dropped greatly due to the exhaustion of magic power, his perception should not have degraded too much. People from the Hot Wind Mercenary Group should be aware of it when they pass by.

"That's right, a quarter of an hour, about a quarter of an hour ago, another army entered the Capital of Sin. I wanted to go there to observe, but I didn't expect to disturb the flower of thorns that should have been sleeping during the day. "

He nodded, confirming Rosen's guess.

"They headed towards the center of the city, and they should have killed some monsters along the way."

"It seems that their goal is to unlock the seal here."

Tia nodded and said, patted the dust on her clothes, then raised her head to look at the haggard Paul.

"I'm sorry to be late, Paul, but we don't plan to leave the Sin City directly."

"what?"

There was a look of surprise in Paul's eyes. In his opinion, it seemed that he didn't want to stay here for a second, but the girl in front of him calmly said that he wanted to take a step closer.

"We have to enter the central city and regain the control core of Ishtar."

Tia said that there was no room for rebuttal.
