Chapter 132: The Excited Northdark EmissaryChapter 132: The Excited Northdark Emissary
“Impossible!”
“Absolutely impossible!”
“Gandalf and his 10 Shadow Guards were invincible back then!”
“How could they suddenly fall?”
“Who in the entire mainland could make them fall?”
“Can you do it, Patriarch?”
Dozens of Northdark emissaries were excited.
The Patriarch, “…”
In the Northdark Sect of the northernmost region, because Patriarch William had been frivolous and neglected in managing his people for many years, his subordinates had always been disrespectful to him.
This was not the first time that his subordinate dared to question him like what had happened today.
In fact, because it happened frequently, and his subordinate"s questioning each time was indeed very reasonable, William had also got used to it.
Hearing his subordinate"s question, he coughed awkwardly and changed the topic.
“Gandalf was indeed invincible back then.”
“But don"t forget that about cultivation, you won"t know what will happen in the future.”
“500 years ago, when Gandalf cultivated to the peak of the ninth rank High Magus, his temperament suddenly changed. He changed from his usual gentle temperament and directly launched an attack on the entire mainland.”
“At that time, not only the North, but the Central Plain and the South were also deeply troubled.
“No one knew what had happened to Gandalf at that time.”
“It was also after that great war, that Gandalf suddenly sealed all the trade routes between the five uttermost regions.”
“From then on, we have no news of Gandalf.”
“We have no way of knowing what he went through in the past 500 years.”
“Perhaps, his fall this time was caused by a huge change in his temperament 500 years ago.”
“Or perhaps, it has something to do with the ninth rank High Magus. What do you all think?”
William"s voice faltered as he spoke.
Many of the things he said were experienced and witnessed by many of the people present.
Therefore, everyone knew that William was right.
Gandalf had gone mad 500 hundred years ago.
No one knew why.
After all, until now, there had never been a second ninth rank High Magus in the mainland.
No one knew what sort of secret that the peak of the ninth rank High Magus was keeping…
“So, Patriarch, what you are saying is that the Eastern Emperor, Gandalf has already died, and his 10 Shadow Guards have fallen as well. There are no more experts in the entire easternmost region… so the newly appointed Eastern Emperor, with just a first rank Great Sage, he has been able to a.s.sume the position of Eastern Emperor?”
After clarifying his understanding of the deeper meaning of William"s words, the emissary of Northdark asked again.
“That"s right.”
The Patriarch William nodded. “As the Northern Emperor, I can clearly sense the auras of the experts in the mainland.”
“As for the easternmost region… I don"t sense much expert"s aura.”
“In fact, I can sense that there are very few experts at the level of the Great Sage in the easternmost region. I dare to guess that in the East, only the newly appointed Eastern Emperor is an expert at the level of the Great Sage!”
William focused his gaze and sensed the aura of the east while he was explaining to everyone.
However, he wasn"t surprised at all when he was once again rebuked by his subordinates:
“Patriarch! Could it be that you often stayed up late and your senses weren"t working properly? Then the East, which used to be the strongest in the entire mainland… you said that there is only one expert at the level of the Great Sage? How is that possible?”
Someone scoffed.
“That"s right. If Gandalf and the others fall, the power of the East will indeed be greatly reduced. But Patriarch, if you say that there"s only one Great Sage in the East now. I don"t believe it at all.”
“That"s right. How can a Great Sage be considered an expert? Just among our 128 Northdark emissaries, there are no less than 30 Great Sages, right? If this East is really so weak, won"t we be able to destroy it with a wave of our hands?”
“I think so, too. Patriarch might have said this on purpose to put on some face for himself…”
“Patriarch has always liked to act pretentious when he speaks. It is indeed possible…”
Everyone discussed in whispers, and their words were humiliating Patriarch William once again.
Patriarch William: …
I felt very sorry as the Patriarch.
No one would listen to what I was saying now!
Patriarch William pulled a long face and couldn"t help but sigh.
However, he still forced a smile and continued to speak with a calm face
“Everyone, back then, Gandalf single-handedly suppressed the North for more than 100 years. He even invaded many of our northern resources. Now that the East is tired and the tides have turned, it"s a good time for us to take revenge!”
“What do you think?!”
William"s words were very provocative. He inadvertently revealed the true purpose of the meeting:
To plunder the East!
That"s right!
Ever since Gandalf appeared in the East, he had been suppressing the other regions until they could not breathe.
Almost all the tens of thousands of magi on the entire mainland were shrouded in Gandalf"s shadow.
Now that Gandalf had fallen and the East was exhausted, it was a good time for him to rise up from the serfs and sing!
Hearing the appeal of the Patriarch William, many people who were still whispering suddenly blushed and nodded in agreement!
That"s right, that"s right.
Although the Patriarch was always unreliable, he was right.
The East was indeed a nightmare for every northern magus who cultivated.
Countless northern magi who lived in Gandalf"s era had the fear of being dominated by that guy.
Gandalf, these three words made them hate and love him.
What they hated was that such a genius had appeared on the magic mainland and had made all the other magi who claimed to be geniuses dim.
There was only one thought on everyone"s mind: The end of the magi was Gandalf.
At that time, everyone felt that no matter how hard they tried, when someone talked about this era in the future, they would not remember themselves but only three words: Gandalf.
But the happy thing was Gandalf, a once-in-thousand-years genius, had single-handedly rewritten the history of magi.
Not only did he discover a whole new mage path.
For the first time in the mainland of magic, a magus is above a swordsman.
Yes, the mainland of magic, though it is called magic.
But before Gandalf came out, the position of the magus was not as high as that of the swordsman.
The magi in those days thought that the ceiling of the path of practice was the Sage.
As for the Great Sage after the Sage, only swordsmen had ever reached that level.
As for magus, no one had ever reached that level.
As the first expert to reach the Great Sage level by purely practicing magic, Gandalf had undoubtedly become the idol of all magi in the entire magic world!
Moreover, everyone clearly remembered that when Gandalf reached the Great Sage realm back then, he was only 21 years old!
Until now, no one had broken this record.
This was simply laughable. The predecessors had already explored the path of advancement, but there were still not many people who could achieve it before Gandalf.
This was simply the greatest humiliation for those experts who claimed to be the mage geniuses.
“Patriarch, please give the order! This subordinate is willing to be the vanguard and go to the East to investigate the situation!”
Thinking of this, a Northdark emissary walked out and knelt down to ask for battle.
Subsequently after one person, there were two persons.
Very quickly, Hualala, a group of people walked out from their seats and knelt down to shout in unison.
“Patriarch, please give the order! We are willing to be the vanguard for the battle!”
