Wizard Immortal

Chapter 275 Demonic Calamity

Beside Andra, an old elf dressed in white robes with a kind face slowly walked over, accompanied by a young elven girl.

The elderly elf looked kind, but everyone present paled upon seeing him, their faces turning respectful: "High Priest Farar!"

"Gentlemen, it's been a long time."

Standing before the crowd, looking at Andra and the others, the old elf named Faral smiled, then turned to look at Adir beside him.

Although he had seen him from afar, upon closer inspection and sensing the faint aura of majesty emanating from him, Faral couldn't help but sigh, "What a powerful bloodline... Perhaps only such a powerful bloodline could give birth to a genius like you."

"You're too kind."

Looking at the old elven man before him and sensing the powerful spiritual energy emanating from him, comparable to that of a wizard in the Transformation Stage, Adir remained calm and nodded slightly.

"I hope we'll have a chance to talk about this sometime."

Looking at Adir, Faral smiled and said, "In this Morrowind City, it's been a long time since there's been another wizard in the Transformation stage besides me."

After saying this, he didn't wait for Adir's reply, but turned to Andra beside him: "Chief Andra, could we let this matter slide for a while?"

He pointed to the patriarchs of the other three clans and began to speak.

"this···"

Hearing Faral's words, Andra's face remained calm, but he was somewhat displeased.

During that period, the Oris family was jointly suppressed by the other three major wizard families. If it weren't for Adir's appearance, they would have almost been wiped out.

Why did this high priest, Faral, choose to mediate now instead of at that time?

Such blatant favoritism would make anyone feel uncomfortable.

Thinking of this, Andra subconsciously looked at Adir, as if wanting Adir to step forward and put pressure on Faral in front of him.

"Patriarch Andra, you've misunderstood."

Seeing Andra's actions, Faral seemed to understand his thoughts. He stood there with a wry smile on his face: "This is not because of my personal favoritism, but because of the order issued by the royal family."

"The royal family?"

Upon hearing this word, Andra and the others were momentarily stunned, seemingly puzzled.

Even Adir, who was standing at a distance, couldn't help but turn his gaze towards the royal family when he heard the news.

"This matter is still being kept secret, but it wouldn't hurt to tell you all in advance."

Standing there, the kind expression on Faral's face gradually disappeared, replaced by a serious look: "The demonic calamity is about to erupt again!"

"What?!"

Upon hearing this, the faces of the people present immediately showed shock, and some even showed fear in their eyes, as if they had imagined some terrible scene.

"You've probably noticed, the number of monsters around here has been gradually increasing lately."

Looking at the group of people before him, Faral slowly said, "This is actually a harbinger of the impending demonic calamity."

"As for what the demonic calamity represents, you are all of noble birth, so I probably don't need to explain it further."

Hearing his words, they fell silent.

Neither Andra nor the chieftains of the other three tribes doubted Faral's words.

In matters like this, the other party has no reason to lie to them.

As the High Priest of Morrowind, Faral is not only the strongest in Morrowind, but also the representative of the Elven Royal Court, representing the Elven Royal Court's rule over Morrowind. It is perfectly normal for him to know the orders issued by the Elven Royal Court.

"The demonic calamity is about to erupt. During this time, all forces need to be mobilized. The royal court has personally issued an order that no official wizard of the elven race shall be allowed to die in internal strife."

Standing there, looking at Andra and the others, Faral said with a serious expression, "This is also the reason why I came here this time."

"It's not targeted at the Oris family. In the past, no matter which side won, I would have stood up to stop it."

He paused, then looked at Adir: "Previously, I wanted to step forward to help Mr. Adir, but I never expected that Mr. Adir would go this far."

Looking at Adir, he sighed, still feeling a pang of regret as he recalled the scene he had witnessed.

Standing in front of him, listening to what he had said, the people in front of him immediately showed different reactions.

Andra remained silent, his heart filled with intense resentment. The other three family patriarchs, on the other hand, felt a sense of relief.

"Of course, not allowing formal wizards to die in internal strife doesn't mean they can't do anything else."

Seemingly sensing Andra's resentment, Faral spoke again, looking at the other three: "As the price to be paid for this incident, how about each of your three families contributes a large magic stone mine to Mr. Adir?"

"yes!"

Despite feeling a pang of heartache upon hearing this, the three clan leaders readily agreed to Faral's request without any hesitation.

Moreover, they also noticed Faral's words that these three magic stone mines were not handed over to the Oris family, but directly to Adir.

That's where Faral's shrewdness lies.

The Oris family, if it weren't for Adir, wouldn't even be able to produce a single formal wizard. They would be insignificant in front of Faral, the high priest of Morningwind, and even less important than the other three families.

Giving the three magic stone mines to Adir will not only gain Adir's favor, but also leave the Oris family, represented by Andra, speechless.

Andra saw these plans clearly, but he had no choice but to agree in a low voice in front of Faral.

After doing all this, Faral gave a few more instructions to the clan leaders, including Andra, and then walked away with the elven girl beside him.

Standing there, watching Faral's departing figure, Adir turned around and followed Andra ahead.

Having witnessed what had happened before, the people present looked at Adir with a sense of awe.

As elven nobles, they were all too aware of the significance of a wizard in the metamorphosis stage.

If Adir were willing to join the royal court, he could definitely obtain a very high title and establish a new wizard family without any problem.

Amidst the crowd, Curtis and her daughter wore complex expressions as they watched Adir's figure approaching from afar.

His expression contained excitement, agitation, pride, and also a well-hidden sense of inferiority and timidity.

Adir could roughly sense their emotions through the keen senses of the moon elves.

He stood there, looking at his mother's body, and remained silent for a moment.

Looking at Adir in front of him, Curtis had mixed feelings.

Her memories of Adir were still from when he was a baby.

Although she couldn't stop thinking about her child, seeing him now still brought an unavoidable sense of estrangement.

Standing still for a while, Adir maintained his previous calm expression and ultimately said nothing, simply following Sora beside him as they walked forward.
