Chapter 478: How to pit this blind guy

The whole army sets out, packed into one car.

The newly snatched luxurious flying car was the best means of transport. To prevent others from recognizing it, Du Luo Ke "renovated" it, changed the paint, added a wide body, and set off on the road.

The flying car drove steadily out of the Life God Pool. Nai Ge Li Si lay on the deck and asked Ge Lei, "What's going on with the Mage Assembly? And what is this thing you mentioned that can break the Silence Barrier?"

Ge Lei shook her head, "I don't know either. You know I couldn't hear at the time. I could only see him talking on the communicator. I guessed some keywords through lip-reading, and among them were breaking the Silence Barrier and the Mage Assembly."

Of course it was like that, then you couldn't blame her for being vague.

"Then do you know who he was communicating with? What kind of communicator did he use?" Nai Ge Li Si asked.

"I don't know. The communicator was in the cabin, the one on the platform is it," Ge Lei said.

Speaking of "the one on the platform," Nai Ge Li Si knew which one it was. It had seen it before; it looked like a communicator.

"Then what's going on with the Mage Assembly? Why haven't I heard of this assembly?" Nai Ge Li Si asked.

Ge Lei glanced at it strangely, "Sometimes I really doubt if you guys are from this world. You haven't even heard of the Mage Assembly? Even for the sake of keeping a low profile, the Undead and Warlocks are powerful, but it's not to the point of not having heard of the Mage Assembly, right?"

Nai Ge Li Si spread its hands, "We are indeed not from this world. It's a long story. Just treat us as coming from the Abyss."

Ge Lei's "God Spirit" had eaten the blank Godhead and become Ang's subordinate god. There was no need to hide such things from her, it was just too troublesome to explain, so they would explain it slowly later.

Ge Lei nodded in realization, that explained it. She continued, "The Mage Assembly is an annual gathering where all mages get together to exchange insights and trade what they have. The time of the event is unfixed, and generally, outsiders don't know about it. It only circulates among mages. It generally adopts an invitation system. Mages who receive an invitation letter can bring their followers to participate."

"Why use an invitation system?" Nai Ge Li Si asked in confusion.

The Grain Competition held by the Star Republic of the main plane was actually a disguised Mage Assembly. Everyone could go to participate, whether they were commoners or merchants. It didn't restrict the identity of the participants and was turned into a lively celebration, with everyone celebrating and reveling like a festival.

Of course, some people would receive invitation letters, but that kind of invitation letter wasn't an admission qualification, but a reimbursement voucher. The personnel teams that received the invitation letters would have all their expenses covered by Star Academy.

For example, the Southern Hedgehog team took the invitation letter and came to Star Academy for free all the way. On the return trip, they got the travel expenses, but to save money, they walked back and almost got sun-baked to death in the desert.

For an assembly like this, surely the bigger the influence, the better, yet they adopted an invitation system. Could it be that the organizers were very poor and reluctant to spend money?

"Because they don't want those Warlocks to come and join in the fun. It's troublesome," Ge Lei said with disdain.

Du Luo Ke was unhappy, "Little friend, do you have any prejudice against Warlocks?"

Ge Lei glanced at him and said, "No prejudice, I'm still good friends with some Warlocks. But when it comes to academic problems, these Warlocks are very annoying. Their reliance and obsession with external forces have reached a point of madness. They shout all day about some Billion-Turret Star-Burst Giant Array, and they look down on us mages very much. If they didn't adopt an invitation system, Warlocks would definitely come to cause trouble."

Billion turrets? Star-Burst Giant Array? Du Luo Ke looked at the Star-Burst Array in the sky and suddenly understood a little.

Warlocks built powerful Star-Burst Arrays. A single faith storm could clear away the gods on the ground. Even the Undead Empire didn't dare to build their palace under the array, but built it on the other side of the plane. Warlocks were undoubtedly the powerful elite of this world.

Under such circumstances, looking down on mages was very normal, just like a new farmer using fertilizer looking down on those old farmers who rely on heaven for their harvest.

If fertilizer is used properly, the yield per mu is a thousand catties. Without fertilizer, the yield per mu is two or three hundred. How could they not look down on you?

Du Luo Ke wasn't from here, so he didn't have the habit of looking down on mages, but he could understand the reason why Warlocks here would develop this mentality. A mage who has practiced for decades might not be able to beat a fully equipped Warlock. How could others not look down on you?

One reason was not wanting to be disturbed, and the second was to keep a low profile. If they made it too grand, what if they provoked the Undead Mages of the Undead Empire?

If Warlocks were just prejudices caused by different industries, the Undead Mages of the Undead Empire were truly looking down on you.

The profession of mage is absolutely one where the older you are, the more knowledgeable you are. The more magical knowledge you have learned, the deeper your understanding of magic.

Although age and strength cannot be equated, as age increases, a mage's reaction will slow down and memory will decline. However, Undead Liches don't have this problem; the longer they live, the tougher their souls become.

Therefore, a several-hundred-year-old Undead Lich crushes any human mage in terms of knowledge. If they come to step on the field, no matter how many human mages there are, they can only listen obediently.

Nai Ge Li Si nodded. It had seen the scene where Au Au Benli trained Lan Xing. The Truth Typhoon Tian Lan Xing Di Lu Ni was trained like a student who had done something bad, shrinking its head and wringing its fingers there.

"Then what about you? What level of mage are you? I see your magic reaction is almost at the strength of a Truth Mage," Nai Ge Li Si asked.

Ge Lei shook her head, "No, I'm just an Arcane Mage. But when I'm particularly irritable, that 'she' inside me will come out. She can negate all truths, and all truth magic will fail. I am the public enemy of all Truth Mages. Of the four Truth Mages in the Magic Star City, three wish I would disappear forever."

"Tsk tsk tsk, negate all truths? Can you also do it in a magic-forbidden domain?" Nai Ge Li Si asked.

Ge Lei was stunned for a moment, "Is there such a truth? No, right? Among the four Truth Mages I know, no one can do a magic-forbidden domain. Is there really such a perverted truth? Wouldn't that be the public enemy of all mages? Even more hated than me."

"Uh, yes. I'll introduce you to each other when I have time," Nai Ge Li Si said.

The flying car drove slowly and arrived at the cave-dweller settlement outside the river bend, preparing to drive out along the river channel. However, after arriving, they discovered that the cave-dwellers didn't know what kind of large-scale sacrificial ceremony they were holding. A pile of people were surrounding a fire basin at the river bend, dancing and jumping there.

Looking at that familiar fire basin, Nai Ge Li Si frowned and said, "Did we forget something?"

Teng! The flames in that fire basin suddenly flared up, soaring into the sky.

"Woohoo~ woohoo~" The cave-dwellers thought their sacrifice had caused an abnormality in the fire basin and became even more excited, dancing and singing.

The flames disappeared, and the fire basin extinguished along with it. The thing in the fire basin had quietly slipped onto the flying car and lay there complaining, "Lord Nai Ge, you are really stingy, making me run so far. But this forest is really strange. I clearly sensed the master's location, but no matter what, I couldn't walk there. Fortunately, you guys came out, otherwise, I would have been mixed into a totem for these cave-dwellers."

"You know I'm stingy and you still complain? Be careful, or I'll peel you off again. Do you know why you couldn't get in? Because you are a demon and will pollute those flowers and plants. Hurry up and ask the Life God for advice on how to restrain your demon aura, otherwise, you will never be able to get in," Nai Ge Li Si said.

Hearing someone mention itself, the Life God emerged from Ang's left shoulder, and the Little Sapling emerged from the right shoulder.

Ge Lei was stunned on the spot when she saw this scene for the first time. The Life God?

"Inhale, inhale hard, Xi Ma Duo Mu @￥#..." The Lord of Terror was forcefully stuffed into a suit of armor. Following a burst of incantations, the demon aura it emitted became less and less, and finally disappeared completely.

Nai Ge Li Si leaned in and sniffed, nodding and saying, "The smell of the demon can't be smelled anymore. Old Tree is really knowledgeable, knowing all kinds of magic."

The Life God replied slowly, "I've just lived a bit longer."

The armor moved, and the voice of the Lord of Terror came from inside, "How magical, I feel like I've merged with this suit of armor, it's not uncomfortable at all."

Nai Ge Li Si said, "Stand still, stand still and let me see."

The Lord of Terror stood straight.

Nai Ge Li Si lifted the faceplate of the armor. It was empty inside. Leaning in to peer inside, what it saw was an empty suit of armor. Even if it reached its hand inside, it couldn't touch anything.

"Hee hee, don't touch randomly, it tickles," the voice of the Lord of Terror came from the armor.

Nai Ge Li Si hurriedly pulled out and shook its claws with disdain, "If you stand there like that, others will think it's an empty suit of armor and will put you on."

Pulling up the faceplate, the Lord of Terror said, "Then, what is he willing to sell?"

Nai Ge Li Si also performed a little disguise, tying a sign around its neck, which read: Pet Nai Ge, home address X-X-X City X-X Road, finder please contact the owner, heavy reward.

"Is this appropriate? Pretending to be a pet? It feels so shameful," Nai Ge Li Si said, pinching its sign uncomfortably.

"Appropriate, appropriate. The pets kept by mages are strange and varied. If you wear a hat, it will look even more like one," Ge Lei said.

Nai Ge Li Si took out its magician's hat and put it on.

On the contrary, Du Luo Ke took off his hat. The Mage Assembly was very exclusive to Warlocks. If he were still dressed as a magician, he might not even be able to enter the city.

After a night of driving, the flying car soon arrived at Magic Star City, a thousand kilometers away.

Magic Star City was a city built on a mountain. A straight-up-and-down stone mountain appeared abruptly on the plain. The top of the mountain was flat, like a tabletop, and Magic Star City was built on the "tabletop."

There were several ways to get up to Magic Star City. One was through the twenty-eight lifting platforms around the mountain.

These lifting platforms were large and small. The small ones could hold a few carriages, and the large ones could hold hundreds of tons of grain. Their reciprocating lifting and the supplies they carried supplied the daily needs of the entire city.

The second way was to fly. Mages showed their magical powers. Whether flying horizontally or vertically, standing or sitting, riding a donkey or a broom, if you could fly up, you were considered capable.

The third way was a teleportation array, which would be skipped.

Ang put the flying car into his Divine Domain, and the group walked toward the stone mountain in the distance.

Ge Lei wrapped herself tightly in a cloak, revealing only a pair of eyes, and introduced as she walked, "The stone mountain where Magic Star City is located is two hundred meters high. There are fifteen deep wells in the city that are several hundred meters deep, and water pumps are constantly pumping water to supply the needs of the whole city."

"The permanent population in the city is about ten thousand, belonging to five forces. They formed a Mage Council to manage the entire city. The Mage Assembly is also held by them together."

Nai Ge Li Si thought of a question, "No, you said before there were four Truth Mages, and three of them want you to disappear forever. Then why are there five forces?"

Ge Lei's eyes were a bit strange, "I am the fifth one."

"Uh, that's true, Truth Negator. But don't you only have the strength of an Arcane Mage?" Nai Ge Li Si asked.

"I will erupt with Truth-level strength when I'm angry. They don't know, and besides, I also restrain them," Ge Lei said.

Nai Ge Li Si asked suspiciously, "Why do I feel like you're a bit excited? Are you trying to cause trouble? I'm warning you, our mission here is to find that thing that can break the Silence Barrier. If you want to cause trouble, wait until we leave."

"Okay," Ge Lei replied readily.

It seemed Ge Lei really wanted to cause trouble, but this was also reasonable. She had been treated so miserably. If Ang hadn't saved her, she would be a disabled person with broken hands and feet, deaf and mute. She hated those who plotted against her to death.

As for who plotted against her? Of course, it was three of the four Truth Mages.

It was curious how she planned to cause trouble, and just as it wanted to ask in detail, a voice suddenly interrupted it, "Hey, are you selling your baby dragon?"

Baby dragon? Where was there a baby dragon? Everyone turned to look and saw a noble man poking his head out of a luxurious carriage, looking at their group.

Nai Ge Li Si looked left and right, and finally found that everyone's gaze was focused on it. Only then did it react. Was the baby dragon referring to it? Did this man want to buy it?

Seeing that they didn't react, the noble man asked impatiently again, "Hey, I'm asking you, are you selling this pet baby dragon? How much money? You even put a hat on it, isn't that because you want to sell it? Hurry up and give me a price."

Everyone looked at each other. Did wearing a hat have this meaning?

Silver Coin immediately rubbed his hands and stepped forward to greet, "Oh, this guest, how should I address you? You really have an eye for things. This is a baby dragon of the rare Golden Dragon, extremely rare. Although it is a sub-dragon, it looks exactly like a giant dragon. After raising it and taking it out, the eyes of the whole city will be attracted to you. Such a unique and precious thing, how can it be measured by money?"

Hearing it was a sub-dragon, a trace of disappointment flashed in the noble man's eyes, but hearing it looked exactly like a giant dragon, his interest immediately rose again. Sub-dragon is good. If it were a real giant dragon, it would be bad instead; that wasn't something he could possess.

He heard that giant dragons were already extinct. If Silver Coin insisted on saying it was a giant dragon, he would be suspicious instead. But truthfully stating it was a sub-dragon made Silver Coin credible.

"Makes sense. A unique and precious thing, how could it be measured by money? What do you want? Let's trade," the noble man said generously, but he never announced his name. His posture clearly indicated that he thought Ang's group wasn't qualified to know his name.

Nai Ge Li Si was so angry its teeth itched, but it had to keep smiling. Silver Coin had already rubbed his hands and gone up. It didn't know how to pit this blind guy, so it would just smile and cooperate. ===== CHAPTER 479 =====
