Chapter 141

"It's obvious that the Sanctum has discovered the problem with this trial. The final battle is to give everyone a final chance. Instead of looking for trouble, it's better to seize the last chance to earn points." Lilith stopped the team immediately after discovering the mission and said to everyone in a clear voice.

Among the apprentices who came to look for trouble with Adam, there were different opinions.

The mission given by the Holy Tower gave the apprentices, who were still lacking a lot of merit points, a chance to pass at the last moment. At this time, it was no longer important to look for the mastermind. Not only did the apprentices think so, but even the elites in the War Alliance thought so too.

Some of the new mages who had been taken advantage of by the devils during the extermination of the three major families said angrily, "No one can humiliate us like this, humiliate the War Alliance. No matter who he is, he must pay the price!"

Lilith advised earnestly, "The purpose of the war alliance is not to show off its muscles, but to help each other in the trial and expand the results of the war. Meaningless fights will only consume the strength of the alliance. Now that we have a chance to earn a huge amount of merits in front of us, why do we do meaningless things? Moreover, the person behind the scenes didn't really do anything to us from beginning to end. "

"Lilith, what do you mean? Are you accusing us of only caring about personal grudges? "

Lilith felt a headache coming. She did not understand the logic at all. She was at a loss for words.

The new sorcerers saw that Lilith was speechless and thought that they had hit the nail on the head. Their faces suddenly became gloomy. They asked the other members of the War Alliance, "Do you think so too?"

Everyone was silent. They expressed their attitude with silence.

One of the new sorcerers stepped forward and said, "In that case, we will withdraw from the War Alliance. Those who are willing to follow me can leave with us now."

In the awkward silence, two people walked out of the team and stood with them. They were both apprentices who had earned enough merit points. The rest of the people were all watching the situation in silence.

"Good, very good. Let's go." There were a total of five people. Four of them were newly promoted magicians, and one of them was an elite of the Alliance. They left the group and flew towards Adam. The remaining apprentices looked at each other, not knowing what to say.

After a while, someone approached Lilith and asked softly, "Lilith, I don't understand. Why don't we deal with the rat hiding in the dark first and then carry out the mission?"

Lilith sighed. "The sudden increase in strength has made them arrogant and conceited. They've lost their previous wisdom."

"What do you mean?"

"Do you still not understand? This trial has been out of our control since the beginning, and it's also different from the previous trials that we know. Why didn't the mission of the Holy Tower come earlier or later? Why did it come when we wanted to cause trouble? "Lilith sighed.

Everyone around her was stunned as they gasped. They had never thought in this direction before. After Lilith pointed it out, they also thought of the reason why the Holy Tower issued this mission. "Could it be that the Holy Tower thinks that we might all be wiped out by the mastermind?"

"What a joke! How could we … "

Lilith spread out her hands. "But that's probably the truth. The Holy Tower didn't want to help us. They wanted to protect us."

On the wasteland, Adam left the lab and came to the ground to supervise the structure of the magic circle and the smelting of the metal.

All the energy nodes in the magnetic field and electric current conversion circle had been filled with Ether crystals by Adam. The energy provided by the energy stones could not support the consumption of the giant electromagnetic cannon.

Adam stood in front of the Smelting Magic Circle in the inner circle. He pressed his hands on the ground and activated the magic circle. Then, intense flames and unbearable heat soared into the sky. The metal pieces that had piled up into a few hills rapidly melted into liquid under such high temperature.

The energy stones were crushed batch by batch. The Devil's heart ached so much that he could not breathe. However, he had to constantly command the infected to add new energy, hoping that the smelting work would be finished soon.

Out of sight and out of mind, the Devil turned around and said to Adam, "Master, do we need to send infected to stop them?"

Adam's hands didn't leave the ground. Under his control, the liquid metal turned into dozens of huge pillars that were one meter wide and thirty meters tall. He replied, "Yes, then speed up the spread of the third-generation virus. Let them reach their strongest state as soon as possible. They will soon be useless."

The Devil obeyed and left, fusing with Garfers. At the same time, the infected across Ceylon began to enter the final stage of their existence. They began to attack everything around them in a frenzy, killing and devouring each other. Their energy aura steadily increased with each bite. When they reached the level of an Anti-Mage Apprentice, the virus genes in their bodies began to break, collapse, and burn, providing the final energy to the host in this way.

The Devil had already filled the path from where the apprentices were to the lab with innumerable infected. The five of them could not see what was in front of them. All they could see was the innumerable infected launching suicidal attacks at them.

Of course, it was not a problem for them. However, it greatly slowed them down, making them even angrier and more irritated.

"These damned monsters!" The new Fire Mage let out a furious roar. His runes glowed brightly as platinum-colored fireballs were fired continuously from the runes in front of him. The extremely high temperature burned all the infected creatures he came into contact with into ashes.

"These monsters." Another new mage appeared to be rather calm. "They seem to be a little anxious. I guess we're getting close to that rat in the dark. "

The fire mage held up the runes with both hands. A huge fireball condensed dozens of meters above his head. The unknown core in the center of the fireball could be clearly seen with the naked eye. Then, the mage clasped his hands together and the fireball smashed forward like a meteor. After the billowing waves of fire and shockwaves, the area of a few hundred meters suddenly became empty.

"Karl, calm down. You've just advanced and don't have much mana in your soul. Using this kind of magic will only consume your mana. These monsters are not worth it." Another new mage pulled elemental threads with both hands and slashed them back and forth in front of him like a blade, tearing the infected into pieces.

"I know, damn it! But I can't help it … "

At that moment, a large number of infected corpses gathered together and formed a vague humanoid monster. A strange voice came from the monster's mouth. "Caw! Caw! Caw! Master wants me to tell you that it's not too late to leave now. Otherwise, don't blame him if you die. "
