Chapter 161 An Atmosphere of Religious Fanaticism
All twenty-five teams, comprising over a hundred wizards, were currently aboard this enormous ship.
Leo stood at one end of the ship, his gaze fixed on one side of the giant vessel.
You can see the rising air currents.
These air currents are some kind of magic that levitates the enormous ship.
Even Leo thought this method was outrageous.
Leo thought to himself: As expected of a formal wizard, he easily lifted such a huge ship with his magic.
Maintaining the spiritual energy required for such a powerful spell is absolutely immeasurable, far beyond the capabilities of a second-rate wizard apprentice like Leo.
Leo's gaze then fell on Kindley.
Two wizards were floating beside Kindley.
Judging from the faint magical pressure emanating from these two wizards, they are wizards of the same level as Kindley, meaning they are also two formal wizards.
Three official wizards were mobilized for this grand gathering.
This also made Leo increasingly feel that the enemy wizards involved in this grand gathering would probably be very powerful.
"Young wizards, let us set sail for the Twin Continents and take down that ignorant mortal king who disrespects the power of wizards."
"We wizards hold high the throne of truth, looking down upon the world from the heavens."
"Ignorant and foolish mortal kings only know how to fool the people, but do not know how difficult it is to obtain the truth."
"They rely on their status and power to deceive and oppress ordinary people for their own use."
"But we wizards are different. We not only possess power, but we also revere power. We wizards respect and acknowledge anyone who seeks the truth."
"On the path of pursuing truth, fellow believers are the most precious."
"But secular royal power is different from that of nobles."
"They don't need the common people to acquire knowledge or power."
"All they need is for the common people below them to fear them and to be exploited by them."
"Today, we wizards, who respect all those who seek the truth, are being smeared by nobles and those who forge royal power."
"They slander us, claiming we have stripped us of our rights as kings."
"They slandered us for harming civilians."
"They slandered us as inhuman monsters."
"They slander us as evil creatures."
"Such slander is an insult to us wizards and a contempt for our pursuit of truth."
"So, young wizards."
"We need a war. A war to demonstrate the power of us wizards. To let these corrupt nobles and monarchies witness what it means to be a seeker of truth."
"We are not barbarians who wield strength, but wizards who wield the power of truth."
Kim Dee said this.
Leo suddenly shouted involuntarily, "We are not barbarians who wield strength, but wizards who wield the power of truth."
Leo was slightly startled when he said those words.
These remarks were not from Leo's own heart, but rather seemed to be shouted out by someone who was being carried out by some force.
Leo guessed that this must be some kind of magic used by Kindley.
On the big ship.
The wizards chanted this phrase over and over again.
This scene resembles the fanatical and blind obedience of followers of a certain religion.
Leo didn't like this atmosphere.
However, due to the magic, Leo's body was out of control, and he kept shouting out the words.
Faced with the power of a true wizard, any resistance seems utterly futile.
They rule over everything.
They seemed to represent what was right.
Kindley looked at the scene he had created with magic with satisfaction and said to the two formal wizards beside him.
"Indeed, this kind of atmosphere is needed when setting sail."
What do you think?
Faced with Kindley's question, the two formal wizards exchanged a glance, then smiled helplessly at each other and said, "Perhaps."
"Well enough."
They clearly didn't like this kind of scene either.
Kindley wasn't satisfied with their lukewarm attitude and said, "Atmosphere is very important in anything."
"An impending war undoubtedly requires us to be able to mobilize the fighting spirit and morale of these young wizards."
"Alright, let's get going."
A formal wizard shook his head slightly and said, "The time is almost up. If we delay any longer, I'm afraid the tower master will blame us."
"Hmm..." Jin Deli said, then suddenly looked at Leo.
When he realized that there were only four people on Leo's side, he couldn't help but frown slightly.
"I've discovered a squad with only four people. Could I prevent this squad from traveling to the Twin Continents?"
As soon as Kindley finished speaking, the two official wizards looked in the direction of his self-glow.
Upon seeing Leo's Proso-like physical characteristics, a wizard said, "You mean that Proso-like wizard?"
"That's right."
The formal wizard said, "Kindley, although I also hate the Pros, don't forget that there are instructions from the Tower Master."
"We can hate the Pros, but we can't do anything to them before the prophecy ends that would hinder their growth. Besides, there are rules set by the Tower Master for this grand gathering, and four-person teams can also participate. The rules are the Tower Master's bottom line, and once we cross that line, the Tower Master will not let us off the hook."
Hearing the warning from the formal wizard, Kindley withdrew his gaze and said, "Alright, alright, I understand. Let him retain his right to participate in this grand gathering. Anyway, I don't think he can get first place. After all, this time we have your son, Brock, and a second-level mental wizard from the previous year."
Upon hearing this, the wizard named Brock smiled and said, "My son Banville will be the uncrowned king of this grand gathering. Even a level 6 mental genius cannot defeat him. His team will definitely win the title of genius wizard this time."
Kim Dee smiled slightly.
Then, Kindley shouted, "Let's go, young wizards!"
The giant ship began to slowly accelerate.
They flew towards the Twin Continents.
The Socratic Empire, Twin Cities: This is the heart of the Socratic Empire.
It is also the location of the Socratic royal family.
Sitting atop the city wall, Socrates looked down at the three thousand knights he had gathered.
His heart, however, remained calm.
This is a battle that is destined to be lost.
However, this is a drama in itself.
A drama by King Socrates directed at the ancestors who initiated this century-long project.
A figure floated beside King Socrates.
King Socrates' gaze fell on the figure, a hint of apprehension flashing in his eyes. He asked, "Your Excellency, now that everything is ready, I wonder if the wizards of Xuanfeng Island are ready to take their positions?"
