Soul of Burning Steel

North of the Empire, Moldavia, south of the Great Aas Mountains, a gathering area for dwarves.

Star Fall 832, March 1st, 9:45 am.

A seemingly young mage was holding a brown wooden staff and standing in front of the lava lake. He watched his teacher levitate above the golden lava, constructing a huge and complicated space-time magic.

In front of his eyes, the white-haired old mage wearing a gold-patterned robe fluently manipulated the faint blue time and space runes, combining them into one after another shining magical characters. They turned into space nodes, repelling them. The surrounding fire elements are then rooted in the void, connecting the space of another world.

As the huge magic power was drawn, the dark blue door was opened little by little—but it was actually not laborious to open it, and it could even be said that it didn’t take much effort. In fact, what the old mage did was In suppressing the endless expansion of this space-time gate.

"After fully deployed, the radius is 700 meters. With such a huge space-time gate, even the underground dwarf gathering places will be greatly affected."

With a slight emotion, the young mage looked at his teacher with admiration: "If it weren't for the restraint of the teacher, the space-time gate that opened instantly after activation would cause unimaginable terrible geological changes."

The mage's name is Lorraine, and his teacher is the chief archmage of the empire, Nostradamus.

This mage is 21 years old and has been studying at the Royal Mage Academy in the Imperial Capital for eight years. Today, he and his 31 classmates came to assist Nostradamus in exploring the space-time gate and maintaining the space-time passage.

These thirty-two people were all the most loyal disciples of Nostradamus, and they were basically common people and unfamiliar people born, and none of them were nobles. Even if they don’t have the money to buy materials and magic books for spell experiments, they rely on their talents and hard work to fight desperately without a good bloodline. Now they all have silver rank strength. In a sense, It can be said to be a genius.

A few days ago, Nostradamus rushed to the school and called them these civilian children openly, saying that they would go to the Black Forest in the North for a field practice and observe the consequences of chaotic erosion at close range-of course, this time The internship will definitely add credits and year-end grades. If you perform well, you can apply for scholarships first.

Needless to say, everyone was immediately attracted by this incomparable condition, and the team of thirty-two people was full in an instant.

In the gradual warming weather, they crossed many levels. The levels reinforced by the dark tide of winter have not been completely evacuated. They saw the various legions stationed in various fortresses. The heroic military posture made these civilian mages. Emotionally.

This is of course-civilians want to promote their status quickly, only relying on military merits, if they have made great merits, and can even be quickly knighted, 80% of the nobles in the empire come from this way. The Legion is where these mages will work after graduation.

Under the flying magic and teleportation spells, they only took a few days to reach the southern part of the Great Aas Mountains, where the rune dwarves of the North gather.

Of course, they all know that this kind of sudden on-the-spot investigation is definitely not really for the purpose of observing some chaotic erosion samples-this kind of subject is not something they can study at all, their teacher is just making an excuse, and Nostradam Mas also quickly gave their real purpose for coming to the North.

Look for the gate of time and space.

The old mage roughly explained the cause and effect to his students-roughly the lord of Moldavia in the north, the guardian of an ancient elven clan in the far south, and the leader of the dwarves disappeared here for no reason. It may be that they were involved in a time-space door that was suddenly opened. Now they need to find the time-space door that may cause them to pass through as soon as possible, and then search and rescue them.

"Um, teacher... how long have they been missing? What occupations are they in?"

"About two days, one golden druid and two golden warriors."

Ha, two barbarian professions, and an environmentalist who doesn't understand the subtleties of magic.

Lorraine said in her heart, if the three golden mages were involved in the space-time gate, they might have rebuilt the space-time gate by relying on local magic materials.

It is true that only our mage can experience the mystery of time and space!

In any case, after going back and forth several times, the wizards headed by Nostradamus finally determined the location of the time-space gate and established a binding circle.

At this time, it was the time when the old mage was about to open the door of time and space.

The magic circle was activated. Thirty-two silver-level wizards gathered their strength and cooperated with Nostradamus to connect the corridors between the dimensions, so that the blue door slowly opened, and the majestic chaos aura spread in an instant, but, early The wizards who were ready had the [Purification Shield] on their sides as a barrier, but they were not disturbed, but the lava lake in front of them immediately began to cool down and condense when they touched the chaotic breath Grey-black rocks.

After the time-space door was opened, several wizards left the circle. They put on a complete set of magic equipment and prepared to go to another world to search and rescue those missing.

However, before they could enter, as time and space fluctuated, two figures appeared in the quiet blue door.

Accompanied by the golden vindictiveness and the green power of nature, Claire and Moria quickly passed through the time and space channels and landed on the frozen magma.

"Nostradamus, it really is you!"

The old dwarf seemed to be acquainted with the old mage. After landing from the gate of time and space, he looked up and saw Nostradamus floating in the air, maintaining the circle, and immediately smiled and said hello: "I disappeared very quickly. Yeah."

"Thank you." The elf is not as big as Moria. She and the old mage also know each other, but they don't say much, they just bowed slightly to express their gratitude.

"Don't talk nonsense, Moria, Joshua-is that the human lord?"

His two old friends returned so quickly and safely, which surprised Nostradamus, but more of joy, but he watched back and forth for a long time, but still did not find the third shadow, so he frowned. Sheng, asked suspiciously: "You are all back, why is he missing?"

"He said he had something to do and he left the team midway, and now he doesn't know where to go."

This is Moria's answer.

"This Jahwa!"

The faint blue light was bright and dark, and the majestic power was shaking. Nostradamus and his students tried their best to maintain the space-time gate. He said anxiously: "The large space-time gate here is tidal in nature. With the surging of magic power, one piece and one piece are combined, and the next time it opens, at least one day later."

"He can't come now, so he has to wait for tomorrow!"

On the side, Lorraine, who was helping to maintain the time and space gate, took a breath.

The space-time gate in front of us is so powerful that it is beyond everyone's imagination. In order to calculate its space-time characteristics, everyone present felt that their brains were not enough. The mage felt quite pressured.

"What the **** are you doing, this lord!"

Exhausted, Lorraine couldn't help but start to hate this unappeared lord: "Obviously he is a fighter who can't even build a time-space gate by himself. The return is so slow, and the time-space channel won't wait for people!"

In another world, the decayed and dead wind is constantly blowing from the passage of time and space. Although the external energy in it is eliminated by the shield, the smell of this air makes everyone feel very bad. On the contrary, it is the dwarves and elves on the side. With some emotion, they feel that the environment has finally improved, and they feel a lot more comfortable.

"No, if this continues, the tide of time and space will recede, and even I can't hold the door of time and space from opening!"

The secret path made a bad sound, and Nostradamus felt that his physical strength was declining rapidly, and this was a sign that the tides of time and space were slowly receding.

Not only that, but the old mage also noticed the erosion of a hint of chaos.

Another five minutes passed.

There was a gasp.

The time and space tide has almost completely receded, and the natural help has disappeared. Now, the power required for such a huge time and space gate really makes you a bit unable to hold it.

The Space-Time Gate, which originally expanded to the size of 30 meters in diameter, is slowly shrinking, while Nostradamus is slowly closing the Space-Time Gate little by little.

I can only wait for tomorrow. He thought with regret. .

But suddenly, contrary to the previous decay and silence, a refreshing wind of order emerged from the shrinking space-time channel, and came out.

Everyone was stunned.

It feels... how is it completely opposite to before?

However, the space-time channel is still slowly closed, and everyone's strength can no longer be maintained.

The wind of order became stronger and stronger, and Nostradamus felt tight.

The Guardian of Chaos has the power of purification. On the opposite side of the time-space channel, Joshua must be coming quickly, but the time-space gate is about to close, and the warrior must be too late!

"Zerzzzzi."

The piercing sound of time and space sounded, and the time and space gate became smaller and smaller, shrinking to the point where people could no longer enter. Seeing this scene, the dwarves and elves couldn't help but sigh.

"It seems that Joshua will have to wait another day."

"Why don't you come here soon."

The mages present felt very upset--will they come tomorrow?

They thought that they had wasted so many days in Northland. Their time is precious. Even if they have credits and year-end grades, they can't be wasted like this!

Lorraine thought so too. He had already started to regret abandoning his own spell experiment and coming to the Northland with his teacher to do such meaningless things.

And Nostradamus was a little puzzled, he thought Joshua was not the kind of person who deliberately made others worry about waiting.

But what did he do?

boom!

There was a vibration, and the door of time and space seemed to be completely closed.

But everyone's eyes did not disperse, but all focused on one point.

At the place where the time-space gate was originally, there was a finger hanging in the void. Around him, blue ripples vibrated rapidly.

Slowly sliding the finger, the time-space gate also expanded.

In the silent gaze of everyone ~www.novelmtl.com~ the part of the finger master entering this world is getting bigger and bigger.

One palm

Arm.

Half body.

"Drive me!"

Because of penetrating the passage of time and space, some muddy voices came, and the violent shock was accompanied by the impact of the red color, rushing out of the time and space door into a big hole, and the figures of Qiao Xiuya and Rin appeared in front of the stunned people.

The fresh wind of order and the wind of chaos and decay are mixed, and the source of the power of order is Joshua. He is holding Rin in one hand and the blue-purple rune core in the other, and his face is a little bit. exhausted.

Ignoring the shocked eyes of other people, Joshua just frowned and looked at the small piece of silver-white crystal in his hand that suddenly appeared and was burning.
