Foreign Land Reclamation By a Vegetable-growing Skeleton Chapter 894 - 894 495 How to Trap This Blind Guy

Chapter 894: Chapter 495: How to Trap This Blind Guy Chapter 894: Chapter 495: How to Trap This Blind Guy All troops march, one vehicle takes all.

The newly hijacked luxury flying car was the best ans of transportation. In order not to be recognized, Durken had ‘renovated’ it a bit, changing the paint and adding a wide body before hitting the road with it.

The flying car smoothly left the Life Sacred Pool, and Negris asked Grey while lying on the deck, “What’s this Mage Assembly about? And what’s the thing you ntioned that can break the Annihilation Formation?”

Grey shook her head, “I don’t know. You know I couldn’t hear at the ti. I could only see that he was conversing through the communication device. I guessed so keywords by reading his lips, which ntioned the Assembly and breaking the Annihilation Formation.”

Of course, that was the case, so it wasn’t her fault that her explanation was vague.

“Do you know who he was communicating with? What kind of communication device was used?” Negris inquired.

“I don’t know. The communication device was inside the cabin, and that one on the platform is it,” Grey replied.

Upon ntioning ‘the one on the platform’, Negris knew which one she was referring to, having seen it before—it looked exactly like a communication device.

“What about the Mage Assembly? How co I’ve never heard of this event?” Negris questioned further.

Grey glanced at Negris oddly, “Sotis I really wonder if you guys are from this world. You haven’t even heard of the Mage Assembly? Even if you’re keeping a low profile, those Undead and Magicians are significant enough that you should have heard of it, right?”

Negris spread his hands, “We are indeed not from this world. It’s a long story, but for now, just think of us as from the Abyss.”

Grey’s Divine Spirit had devoured the Blank God Statue and beca a subordinate deity to Ange. There was no need to hide this from her, but explaining was too cumberso; it would be discussed in detail later.

Grey nodded in sudden realization. Things made sense now, and she continued, “The Mage Assembly is an annual gathering of all Mages where they co together to share insights and learn from each other. The ti of the event is not fixed, and it’s usually not known to the public. It’s spread among Mages and generally uses an invitation-only system. Mages who receive an invitation can bring their followers with them.”

“Why use an invitation system?” Negris wondered aloud.

The grain competition organized by the Republic of Stellaris in the Master Plane is actually a disguised Mage Assembly. Anyone can participate, be it commoners or rchants, without restrictions on attendee status, turning it into a festive celebration. Everyone celebrates joyously as if it was a festival.

Of course, so people would receive invitations, but those invitations aren’t entries but reimbursent docunts. Teams that receive invitations have all their expenses covered by the Stellaris Academy.

For instance, the Southern Porcupine Man Team ca with an invitation, enjoying free passage to the Stellaris Academy and receiving travel expenses for the return journey. Nevertheless, they almost perished in the desert trying to save money by walking back.

For such an event, the more influence it has, the better, yet they used an invitation system. Could it be that the organizers are stingy and not willing to spend money?

“It’s because they don’t want those Magicians to co and make a fuss. It’s troubleso,” Grey said with disdain.

Durken took issue with that, “Hey kid, do you have a prejudice against Magicians?”

Grey glanced at him and said, “No prejudice, really. So of my good friends are Magicians, but when it cos to academic issues, they are really annoying. Their dependence on and obsession with external forces have reached a crazy level. They’re always shouting about sothing like the Cannon Star Burst Array and they have very little respect for us Mages. If it wasn’t for the invitation system, no doubt so Magicians would co and cause trouble.”

Cannon Star Burst Array? Durken looked up at the Starburst Array in the sky and suddenly felt he understood.

Magicians constructed powerful Starburst Arrays. One Faith Storm was enough to cleanly sweep away the Gods on the ground. Even the Undead Empire didn’t dare build a palace beneath the Array but constructed it on the other side of the Plane instead. Magicians were undoubtedly dominant in this world, representing the highest echelon of power.

In such a scenario, it’s normal to look down upon Mages, just as fertilizing Druids look down upon those who farm the traditional way.

With the right use of fertilizers, the yield per acre could reach a thousand pounds; without them, it might be just a few hundred. How could one respect the other?

Durken wasn’t from this place, so he didn’t have the habit of looking down on Mages. However, he could understand why the local Magicians developed such a mindset. Mages who had practiced for decades might be no match for a well-equipped Magician. How could anyone respect you?

First, they didn’t want any disturbances, and second, they sought to keep a low profile. What would happen if they attracted the attention of those Necromancers from the Undead Empire with too grand a display?

If the prejudice against Magicians was due to a difference in professions, the disdain from the Necromancers of the Undead Empire was genuine and outright.

Being a Mage was definitely a profession where the older one gets, the deeper their breadth of magical knowledge becos, and the more profound their understanding of magic.

While age and strength aren’t directly correlated, as Mages grow older, their reflexes and mory might decline. However, Undead Witches don’t have such issues; the longer they live, the more resolute their souls beco.

Thus, a centuries-old Undead Witch far surpasses any Human Mage in scholarship, and if they decided to show up just to cause trouble, even a large number of Human Mages could only obediently listen.

Negris nodded, recalling how Auburnli scolded Emperor Blue Star during a Faith Storm; Emperor Blue Star tucked his head down like a student who had done sothing wrong and nervously twiddled his thumbs.
