Chapter 78 Magic Council

In the center of the continent, a magnificent building complex stands tall.

This is the Magic Council - the power center of the entire wizarding world.

The Council is not only responsible for managing all the guilds in the entire continent, but also bears the responsibility of maintaining order and punishing black magicians.

At this moment, in the highest level meeting room of the Council, ten senators dressed in luxurious robes were sitting around a huge round table.

"Regarding the recent frequent activities of the Black Mage, we must take more stringent measures."

Just as everyone was discussing enthusiastically, the man sitting on one side of the round table suddenly frowned and his face turned gloomy.

What's surprising is that this man looks exactly like Gerard, even the marks on his face are exactly the same.

His abnormality quickly attracted the attention of others: "Ziklein, what's wrong?"

Zikrein stood up and bowed slightly to the councillors around him. "Excuse me, everyone," he said quickly, "something has happened and I need to deal with it urgently."

After saying that, he turned and strode towards the door, leaving the room full of astonished congressmen looking at each other in bewilderment.

As Zikrein walked out of the meeting room, a figure followed closely behind him.

"What happened?" A soft female voice sounded in his ears.

Zikrein turned around and faced the woman who was chasing him.

He didn't speak, but his voice rang directly in the other person's mind: "Urutia, there is a problem with the Tower of Paradise. I have to go and deal with it."

Urrutia frowned when he heard this, and also said in a voice transmission: "Is it serious? Do you want me to go with you?"

Zikrein shook his head gently. "No, you stay here and continue the meeting. Don't let others get suspicious. I'll be back soon."

As soon as he finished speaking, a golden magic circle suddenly lit up under Zikrein's feet. It seemed as if there were stars flowing on the magic circle, releasing a dazzling light.

The next moment, Zikrein's figure turned into a stream of golden light and flew out of the window. In the blink of an eye, his figure disappeared at the end of the horizon.

At this moment, in the tower of paradise
Orochimaru walked to the side of Ikaruga, reached out to pick up the long sword lying next to Ikaruga, and looked at it in front of his eyes.

The blade shone with a cold luster, and the edge was as sharp as ever, with no signs of having experienced fierce battle.

Orochimaru gently stroked the blade, a hint of admiration flashing in his eyes.

"This sword is good." Orochimaru whispered, "The material is very special."

"Put it away. We can't win this battle without you." Fugaku's voice came from behind.

"Thank you."

Orochimaru put Ikaru's sword into the scroll, stood up and was about to speak when the wall in front of him suddenly began to fluctuate strangely, attracting the attention of both men.

I saw the wall in front of me rippling like water, and in the blink of an eye, the outline of a huge door frame emerged.

"boom!"

With a dull thud, the door that appeared out of nowhere suddenly opened to both sides, revealing a passage. Thick darkness poured out from behind the door, swallowing up the surrounding light like a substance.

Magical arrays appeared on the surrounding walls and continued to press towards the two of them.

"Interesting, forcing us to go in." Orochimaru narrowed his eyes slightly, licked his lips lightly with the tip of his tongue, and said with a hint of excitement: "It seems that the final boss of the game is about to appear."

"This passage is likely to lead directly to the center of the tower." Fugaku whispered, "The core should be just ahead."

"Then let's meet the master of this tower." Orochimaru sneered, "Shadow Snake Hand!" As soon as he finished speaking, several white snakes instantly sprang out from his sleeves and rushed into the dark passage like an arrow from a bow. The snakes moved forward quickly in the darkness, exploring the way while also collecting intelligence.

However, just as the white snake was about to reach the end of the passage, a powerful energy wave suddenly swept over.

"hiss--"

The white snakes let out a short hiss and instantly turned into green smoke and dissipated into the air.

Orochimaru frowned slightly, and a trace of vigilance flashed in his eyes. There was a vague figure at the end of the passage, but before he could see it clearly, the white snake had been destroyed.

"It seems that the other party doesn't want us to spy too much." Orochimaru said softly.

At this time, the wall was about to shrink in front of them. Orochimaru and Fugaku exchanged glances, then stepped into the dark passage.

The moment Orochimaru stepped into the passage, his trouser legs trembled slightly. Several extremely small white snakes slid out of his trouser legs silently and quickly disappeared into the shadows.

After passing through the dark passage, the view suddenly opened up. A very spacious room appeared in front of them. A man in a luxurious robe sat on the throne, staring at the two with sharp eyes.

"I didn't expect that you could make it this far. Congratulations." Gerard said with a smile.

His voice was low and playful at this moment: "Can you tell me why you came here?"

Orochimaru chuckled and answered slowly: "It's just a chance encounter, or it can be considered a game..."

While the two were talking, Fugaku stood aside, his Mangekyō Sharingan quietly turning, carefully scanning every corner of the room, trying to find an object similar to a core.

He noticed that the entire room was covered in intricate magical patterns, and there seemed to be invisible energy flowing in the air.

At this moment, Jellal noticed Fugaku's actions, his face instantly darkened, and he stood up suddenly.

"Since you come here to seek death, I will grant your wish!" Gerard said coldly, with unquestionable murderous intent in his voice.

As soon as he finished speaking, he swung his right hand violently, and ripples suddenly appeared in the air. In an instant, a black magic circle lit up in his hand.

"boom!"

A thick beam of light burst out from the magic circle and headed straight for Fugaku. Wherever the beam of light passed, the air was instantly ignited, making a sharp explosion.

Fugaku's eyes moved and he tried to dodge.

But at this moment, a circle of complex runes suddenly lit up on the ground beneath his feet. Fugaku felt his feet sink as if he was stuck in a quagmire and couldn't move.

"Oh no!" Fugaku was shocked.

As the beam of light was about to hit, the Mangekyō Sharingan in Fugaku's eyes spun wildly.

"boom!"

A huge Susanoo instantly formed and blocked Fugaku. The beam of light hit Susanoo hard, making a deafening explosion. Air waves rolled and gravel flew everywhere.

At the same time, Orochimaru quickly formed seals with his hands and whispered, "Wind Style..."

However, Gerard sneered: "Want to seal? It's not that easy!"

He waved his hands violently, and four purple magic circles suddenly appeared around Orochimaru. They surrounded him from top to bottom, left to right. Several black chains shot out from the magic circles, wrapping around Orochimaru's hands like spirit snakes.
