Chapter 167 Crisis in the Time Mirror

Chapter 167 Crisis in the Time Mirror

Underground of Nether Island.

When Brady Xingyue asked these questions, Gunara gave an intriguing smile.

"If you want to know about Lin Feng, you need to pay the equivalent of one forbidden spell scroll. If you want to know why I came to the Magic Tower, you can't afford that price."

"Okay, I want to know about the former."

Brady hesitated for a moment, then took out a water-based forbidden spell scroll from his magician badge.

He was too curious about this Gunara, and he knew that if the other party was really a member of the Black Tide, then the only way to obtain information was through a transaction.

Although Black Tide is an underground organization, it is indeed a very reputable organization.

Gunara didn't expect that Brady would actually produce a scroll to find out about Lin Feng, but she still accepted the forbidden spell.

"Lin Feng's original name is not Lin Feng, but Ryan Wood."

"Lion Wood! The Ryan Wood who was wanted by the entire Caesar Empire some time ago, and who later uncovered the Pope's crimes?"

As the eldest prince of the Star-Moon Empire, Brady was naturally very concerned about the current affairs of the surrounding empires, but he had only heard of Ryan Wood's deeds but had never seen Ryan Wood's specific appearance, so he was mainly curious about this person.

Now that Brady knew Lin Feng was Ryan Wood, he was shocked.

How could a person who could expose the Pope's crimes and get away with it be an ordinary person? He could only blame himself for being short-sighted and not recognizing this great god.

If he had known the other party's identity earlier, he might not have stood up to speak for Jin Baili and would have definitely tried to win over Lin Feng.

For the imperial family, there are no friends or enemies, only eternal interests.

They can see who has greater value better than anyone else.

"So he is also your target?" asked Brady Xingyue.

"You have to go back and ask your father, the emperor." Gunara smiled meaningfully.

Brady's face changed. "You mean, the person who hired you is my father?! What connection did he have with Ryan Wood? How come I didn't know? Did he ask you to eliminate him?"

Brady was confused. He didn't actually regard Lin Feng as an enemy. In fact, after hearing about what happened in the Caesar Empire next door, he even admired the other party's courage to do these things.

But when he learned that his father had actually hired Black Tide to investigate the other party, he was a little surprised. During the communication with Gunala along the way, he had already heard that the employer behind the scenes wanted Black Tide to eliminate Lin Feng, but when he learned that the employer was his father, he was a little confused.

"If you want to know this information, it is equivalent to the value of two forbidden scrolls." Gunara started to quote again, trying to do business with the familiar, a father-son deal.

Although Brady still wanted to know some details, the price was beyond his ability to afford. Even though he had the money, it didn't mean he was willing to spend it.

Anyway, Black Tide was hired by his father, and he would just ask about it when he returns to the capital. There was no need to waste this money.

"No need." Brady took a deep breath and looked at the last seal. "Are you sure there is no danger?"

"Don't worry, there's no danger."

Brady's eyes narrowed, and he smashed the seal with the golden cone in his hand.

The magic seal was suddenly covered with cracks, and black lines instantly covered the entire metal block with it as the center. A sinister and murderous aura seeped out from those cracks, forcing Brady and Gunara to retreat quickly.

"Hold on! It's okay!" Gunara held up the dark magic shield to block the surging breath.

Even though she was mentally prepared, she was still nervous about unsealing the block of metal. Even at this moment, she was a little uneasy - was that demigod-level Abyss Lord really a corpse?

In the blink of an eye, black gas seeped out from the cracks, and the huge block of metal separated into two parts, like a huge black coffin.

After the black gas completely dissipated, Brady and Gunara removed the magic shields and looked inside.

There lay an ugly-looking abyss demon about 3 meters long. He was wearing a dark blue satin robe with red silk threads wrapped around his body, and a black magic wand was grasped in his skinny claws.

The Lord of the Abyss lay quietly inside, as if he was really dead.

Brady and Gunara looked at each other, and only dared to approach after making sure that the other was not moving.

The black magic wand was obviously a valuable item, and the magical ornaments and clothes on the opponent's body, as well as the abyss treasure placed inside the metal block were all priceless!

If the Magic Tower were told about the Abyss Lord, then these things would definitely not be theirs now.

Brady glanced at Gunara and thought that there was nothing wrong with being a little selfish.

Brady walked forward and looked carefully at everything about the Abyss Lord. This was the first time he had looked at an Abyss Demon, a demigod-level lord, so closely and carefully, and it turned out that this was what he looked like.

The necklace around my neck looks nice.

Brady stripped off the clothes of the Lord of the Abyss, revealing a black pearl necklace with an extraordinary color.

Just as Brady was about to tear it off, the Lord of the Abyss, who was supposed to be dead, suddenly opened his eyes and bit off Brady's head!

……

"Oh no! There's a crack in the time mirror!"

Magic Tower, Audio-visual Hall.

The bosses of the Magic Tower who were watching the performance of the examinees suddenly found that the big screen in front of them went black, and then Tol Edison, the head of the engineering department in charge of magic props, rushed in.

"What's going on?" asked the chief judge of the Magic Tower Tribunal with a frown.

This situation has never happened before. This time mirror is a magical artifact. How could there be any problem with it?

"The cracks in the time mirror mean that something uncontrollable has happened. It means that a force has appeared in the past timeline that is powerful enough to change the established facts!" Tuer Edison explained hurriedly with an anxious look on his face.

"Impossible. Lin Feng's forbidden spells are far from enough to exceed the limit of the time mirror. How could they cause cracks in the time mirror?" said Brook Dani from the administrative department.

"The Time Mirror is a divine artifact. If it can cause cracks in the artifact, there must be a god-level power that appeared in the past! I suspect that during the battle of Nether Island, there must have been a god-level Abyss Demon that we ignored!"

"Go and call Yaheng back!" The situation suddenly changed, and Minggo, the highest-ranking judge on the field, also realized that something was happening that was beyond control.

After a while, Yaheng rushed back from the abyss battlefield.

"Yaheng, have you ignored anything when you were on Nether Island a year ago and until now?" Ming Ge asked.

Yaheng was still confused at this time. He had just been watching the battle situation in the Abyss battlefield when he was suddenly called back by the leader of the headquarters. And he was asked about the Battle of Nether Island a year ago. He was unable to react for a while.

"What's wrong with Nether Island? Hasn't it been taken over?" Yaheng asked.

"Now there is a group of magicians participating in the trial and assessment in the time mirror. They are using the background of your original battle of Nether Island. Now cracks have appeared in the time mirror. Edison said that it is because at least a god-level power has appeared in it. In other words, when you cleaned up the battlefield, you did not clean it up completely and ignored some powerful existences!" Mingge said with a serious face.

"Impossible! How could it be?!" Yaheng felt a little wronged. "As the commander of the army, how could I make such a low-level mistake..."

Suddenly, Yaheng stopped talking: "I remember that when we were preparing to fight against the Abyss Army led by Eliphant, I did feel a strange energy fluctuation. That energy came and went quickly. Until we cleaned up the battlefield later, this energy never appeared again. I wonder, could it be..."

"It's the corpse magic." Just then, a white-haired old woman walked in from the door. Although there were wrinkles on her face, one could still vaguely see her beauty when she was young.

"Meet Master Murphy!"

"Meet Master Murphy!"

"Meet Master Murphy!"

The moment the white-haired old woman appeared, all the magicians on the scene saluted at the same time.

The presiding judge, Phil Mingo, looked at the visitor and said, "Jenny, why are you back now?"

“I sensed something ominous, so I came back to take a look. Sure enough, there was a problem with the time mirror, and the past had changed.” The visitor was none other than Jenny Murphy, the legendary magician of the Magic Tower.

Jenny Murphy walked to the middle of the crowd and said, "The Abyss Demons have a kind of magic called Corpse God Magic, which can put the demigod-level Abyss Demons into a state of death. Outsiders cannot detect the breath of the Abyss Demons in Corpse God Magic at all. This state will continue according to the potential of the Abyss Demons. When the Abyss Demons wake up, they can be promoted to the god level and become the Abyss Demon King."

"You mean, on Nether Island, a demigod-level Abyss Lord has been promoted to a god-level Abyss Demon King?" Phil Mingo usually stays in the Magic Tower, and knows much less about the abyss and other dimensions than Jenny Murphy, who is away all year round.

"That's the only possibility," said Jenny Murphy.

"Once the Abyss Demon King appears, these examinees will not be able to deal with him. Even Yaheng cannot deal with the god-level Abyss Demon. Let's get them all out." At this point, the only option is to end the second round of assessment.

But when Phil Mingo said this, Jenny Murphy frowned: "Too late!"

"What do you mean it's late?!" everyone was shocked.

"The time mirror has cracks. No external force can enter the time mirror again at this time. It is equivalent to the channel connecting the past and the present being completely interrupted. The people inside can't get out, and the outside forces can't get in! If they want to get out, they must completely resolve the god-level power that appeared in the past, so that the time mirror can repair the channel by itself and bring them back to the present!"

Jenny Murphy said solemnly that she had once been a user of the time mirror and understood its characteristics better than anyone else present.

Seeing that some people still seemed confused, she further explained: "After the power to destroy the past appears, if the people who stay in the past die, they can only stay there forever! Therefore, you must be mentally prepared for all those people to die in the past! Give a good explanation to the people of the Magic Continent!"

This sentence sounded the alarm in the hearts of everyone in the Magic Tower!

They had no doubt about what Jenny Murphy said, that is, the nearly 10,000 people who were now being tested in the time mirror would most likely stay there forever!

These magicians are all outstanding magicians in the entire magic continent, and some of them are at least great magicians, the backbone of the country.

The Magic Tower recruited people with the intention of making these magicians into warriors who guarded the Magic Continent, and never intended to let them die in an assessment trial.

Once this tragedy happens, not to mention that the reputation of the Magic Tower will suffer a fatal blow, it is very likely to cause anger across the entire magical continent. When the time comes, all major forces and even major empires will unite to demand an explanation. How should they explain it?

That’s thousands of lives!

They simply cannot give an explanation to the entire magical continent!

"Does the tower master have any solution?" Phil Mingo had already understood the seriousness of the situation, and he asked Jenny Murphy.

"Only someone who is proficient in time magic can save everything, but as far as I know, there is no such magician in the magic continent now. Unless Yaheng in that world breaks through to the god level." Jenny Murphy said.

“But at that time, I was only level 7, and I finally broke through to level 8 before I killed Eliphant. Let alone god-level, even if I were demigod-level, I would have been trampled into pieces.” Yaheng on the side had a guilty look on his face.

If he had cleaned the battlefield more carefully, what happened today would not have happened.

Jenny Murphy sighed: "Then there is no other way. Get ready to explain to the world."

After saying that, Jenny Murphy staggered out of the theater, leaning on her wand.

The entire audio-visual room fell into deathly silence.

……

"Reno, what's wrong with you?"

Nether Island.

The second and third waves of attack from the Abyss Army arrived ahead of time, but were easily defeated by Lin Feng's forbidden spell offensive and powerful recovery ability.

Lin Feng's team's points have already ranked first, reaching 50 billion.

But since half a day ago, Renault's face has been pale.

Lin Feng had been keeping an eye on Renault, thinking that this man didn't put in much effort, so why did he look so exhausted.

If someone who doesn't know saw this, they would think that it was Renault who released the forbidden spell, not Lin Feng.

So Lin Feng couldn't help but ask Renault.

"I feel that there is something terrifying on this island, and it's coming soon!" Renault's voice was a little hoarse.

"What is it?" Lin Feng put away his smile and became serious.

Suddenly, Renault hugged his head and the intense pain made him kneel on the ground.

Seeing this, Ace and others on the side hurried over.

"what happened?!"

"Did you get food poisoning from eating your barbecue?"

"That's impossible. I handled it very cleanly."

"Lindsay, show him."

Lin Feng saw that Renault did not look fake. He could feel that the magic power in his body was very chaotic at the moment, so he quickly asked Mirabelle to treat him.

But after several healing techniques, Renault still did not get better.

Just then, dark clouds rolled in the sky.

A terrifying aura descended upon this place.
