Arcane Linguist

Chapter 474 Substitute Plan
A few days passed quickly.

Another night, the same mounds and cliffs, under the same moonlit night.

The devil meets with Ren again.

"Sir Ren, the 'substitute' you want has been found!"

"Oh, is it so?"

Ren turned his head and looked at the devil's phantom.

The devil said: "That is a man named Gallo."

Ren said solemnly: "I have vaguely heard of this Gallo, and he is also serving in the war zone of the Kingdom of Dolan."

The place he was guarding was the most remote and wild desert in the Kingdom of Dolan. The top leaders of Atrein also knew the dangers of mixing troops, so they simply used the terrain to isolate the undead army he commanded.

As a strange general under surveillance, he was unable to leave the war zone he was guarding, so he was not familiar with other battle mages in the Dolan Kingdom.

His theoretical innovations and new interpretations of ancient arcana have attracted much attention in the arcane world, and his future is bright.

Now members of the Euthodox school have long distanced themselves from him, their former friends and supporters have disappeared, and their contributions have been forgotten...

In the eyes of the devil, this thing seems to contain a deep magic power that attracts people's hearts.

Now, he has long been the consul of the empire, the archmage, and the arcane committee member.

Although these things that happened in the human world have been widely circulated for a long time, Renn would not have noticed it if he had not deliberately collected them.

The committee was furious and ordered a thorough investigation. As a mentor, he was inevitably implicated.

“Gallo was a former rising star of the Autodocus school, a young leader with a distinguished reputation.

Such people are trapped in confusion and pain, and their hearts must be filled with darkness that can be exploited by us. "

"Ok."

The grievances between Gallo and Roland and the Seris School were told to Renn.

Another night.

He vaguely guessed something, and a sly smile appeared on his lips.

At that time, Rolando was just a rising star, competing with Gallo for the top spot.

"You think of a way to give this soul pearl to him."

However, after going to the world of Reiner, his disciples illegally used the "Soul-stealing Technique", which led to the accidental death of the official mage and the subsequent erosion of the abyss.

Ren silently took out a walnut-sized bead from his chest.

It has an oval shape with a surface as smooth as jade, reflecting the brilliance of the moonlight.

……

"Soul Pearl?"

What's more, that has happened for many years.

A whirlpool rose in the air, sucked it in, and disappeared immediately.

The moon is setting and the crows are crowing, in the wilderness, the cold wind is blowing, and tranquility envelopes the surrounding areas.

When Gallo returned from patrol with his battle mages, he saw the silver moon wheel already hanging in the sky, emitting a brilliant light.

"Everyone has worked hard, let's rest first."

Gallo looked around and saw that everyone was looking at him, so he cleared his throat and announced.

Smiles broke out on everyone's faces, they nodded, and then dispersed, each looking for a place to rest.

Seeing that it was getting late, Gallo also returned to his hut.

The station is brightly lit and the surrounding environment is quiet, with only the chirping of insects and the footsteps of patrolling guards moving around from time to time.

However, Gallo did not fall asleep, but read a book inside.

His mood was slightly disturbed, which was caused by the dim prospects for the future. Nowadays, he is just a high-level mage who has made mistakes and lost his power. Even his position as an alternate committee member has ceased to exist in name only.

Although he once held a high position and had a bright future, it has become a thing of the past.

At present, the arcane world is dominated by Roland and others. The Seris School has begun to become a prominent school. Even the old deans of the two schools, Pedos and Elamon, have to avoid its edge.

He thought that after he came out, the letters he had written had all disappeared into the sea one after another. His former mentor, Master Watson, was also getting old. No matter whether he wanted to help him recover or not, he would be unable to do anything.

He understood that his time had completely passed.

He knew that he had become an unpopular person, and even his former follower, Oxia, seemed to have become a high-level mage, becoming a senior inspector in the Arcane Development Department and assuming real power.

How could such a person become a big boss and be willing to go back to the past?

There is no place for him in the arcane world, and research is no longer possible. Only power is the pursuit.

Suddenly, the wind blew the books into chaos, and a hazy brilliance began to appear on the magic light source in front of him, projecting a faint figure.

Gallo looked at this scene calmly, disdainful of such supernatural phenomena that might scare ordinary people.

"What's the matter with pretending to be a ghost?"

He had a vague feeling that this was somewhat like a vision caused by "Alien Detection", a level 5 spell that could find entities from other worlds to ask about things and communicate across planes.

But that kind of spell is to transport one's own spirit to another realm, and what you see in front of you is more like the "arrival projection" often used by creatures from outside the realm.

Those middle and high-level devils who master this technique often like to use it to pretend to be gods and ghosts, and to fool ordinary people who don't know its true nature.

Sure enough, a moment later, a devil as bloated as a pig appeared.

"Lord Gallo, I salute you."

The devil didn't pretend to be a god in front of Gallo, pretending to be a god from another world. Instead, he was a little humble and flattering. Before the other party destroyed this magical power, he nodded and bowed.

"I was asked to deliver something to you."

"Oh?" Gallo was a little curious, "What is it?"

"Something that can help you break through the promotion and become an archmage!" the devil said.

Gallo's heart beat hard.

Archmage.

In his lifetime, it has become a delusion for him to advance to the ninth level from the field of arcane research and return to his hometown as a great arcane master.

However, it is still possible to advance from the rank of Battle Mage to the ninth level by relying on real strength and military merit.

After all, the senior management's characterization of him was originally to make meritorious deeds.

When one's strength reaches the peak of high-level, and then establishes oneself with military merit, he may not be able to return to the committee, or even cultivate a new group of supporters.

Thinking of this, Gallo felt a little enthusiastic.

But he was not dizzy. Instead, he sneered: "You have ulterior motives!"

He immediately made a move to summon the guards.

The devil didn't dare to play tricks anymore, and quickly revealed the answer to the mystery when he stood up: "It was Lord Ren who sent me to find you!"

"Ren? That lich?" Gallo was slightly startled.

"Your Excellency Renn shares the same problem with you and is very sympathetic to your experience. I hope you can get out of this predicament..." The devil tried his best not to stimulate Gallo's emotions with some caution.

But this sentence was undoubtedly like a fuse, instantly igniting Gallo's emotions.

"We have sympathy for each other, hahahaha... we have sympathy for each other!"

"Who the hell is he? He deserves to feel the same pain as me!"

Jialuo's face became ferocious, and his originally calm mind instantly stirred up a storm. He stretched out his hand to grab it, and then explored the illusion ahead.
