nEveryone present was shocked. These were all high-level elemental mages who were guarding the king’s side. How could they not dispel this terrifying poison that had no shape or smell? Unless there was an antidote, those who were poisoned would definitely die.

n

n

nEven if there was an antidote, they had to eat it within half an hour. Otherwise, even a god would not be able to save them.

n

n

n

n

nBut there was no antidote in the imperial city!

n

n

nOther than the divine fog sect in the far south, no one else had an antidote.

n

n

nAn old man who was obviously a high-level elemental mage said in a deep voice, “Quick, quickly go to the forbidden land. Ask the ancestor to appear!”

n

n

nThese top-level mages had almost all been nurtured by the great mage divine snake.

n

n

n

n

nThat was why they called him the ancestor.

n

n

nAlthough the ancestor had not appeared for more than fifty years, they had strong confidence in the great wizard Snake God.

n

n

nThe ancestor would not die. He would definitely break the legend and become the first Ultimate Wizard!

n

n

nFacing such a critical moment, they immediately thought of the ancestor.

n

n

n

n

nOnly the ancestor could save the king.

n

n

nThey also thought of an even more terrifying consequence. Once the king fell and the kingdom lost its leader, it would be in chaos.

n

n

nThe prince was still young and had no way of controlling such a chaotic situation.

n

n

nOnly the old ancestor could take charge of the overall situation.

n

n

nThey needed to invite the old ancestor out.

n

n

n…

n

n

n

n

nThe palace was in chaos, but the library was very quiet.

n

n

nLei Luo was lying in the vampire coffin, practicing the spirit-patching codex.

n

n

nThe spirit-patching codex was still at the first level, and there was still a long way to go before it reached perfection.

n

n

nThe recent sign-ins have all produced ordinary things. I have to try a new place. Lei Luo thought.

n

n

nHe had signed in the library for more than ten years, and he was about to throw up.

n

n

nIt was time to change places.

n

n

nPerhaps there would be a great harvest?

n

n

nThere were so many places in the capital, and the palace was pretty good.

n

n

n

n

nAs a place where the king and ministers discussed matters, it must have gathered a lot of luck. Perhaps there would be a huge reward for signing in there.

n

n

nAnyway, he was already an ultimate wizard. If he sneaked into the palace at night, no one would be able to see him.

n

n

nSuddenly, a look of surprise appeared on his face.

n

n

nEh, someone’s heading towards the bamboo forest forbidden ground again?

n

n

nWait, it seems to be a purple-robed wizard?

n

n

nLei Luo thought that it was the same person as before, but after sensing for a moment, he realized that they were not the same.

n

n

nThe clothes he was wearing at the moment were obviously that of a mage with an extremely high status in the palace.

n

n

nWhen the old mage had entered the bamboo forest through the passageway on the side of the library, he did not hide anything at all. He just flew over with swagger.

n

n

nMoreover, the old mage’s expression was extremely anxious. It was obvious that he had something urgent to deal with.

n

n

nLei Luo quietly left the vampire coffin and followed behind the old mage like a ghost.

n

n

nThe old mage’s cultivation was very high. He was an eighth-level elemental mage, but he did not notice Lei Luo at all. One could imagine how powerful Lei Luo’s shadow magic was. His body was perfectly covered by the shadow and did not make any movements.

n

n

nSuddenly, the old mage knelt down on the bamboo path and wailed to the darkness in the distance, “Ancestor, His Majesty has been poisoned. I’m afraid he won’t be able to hold on for long. Ancestor, please come out and save His Majesty!”

n

n

nNeedless to say, the ancestor that the old mage was talking to was the Great Wizard Snake God, Moseley.

n

n

n

n

nLei Luo was not surprised, but his expression changed slightly. The king had been poisoned?

n

n

nThis was not a good thing.

n

n

nIf the king died, with the current situation in the Faroe Kingdom, the only outcome would be destruction.

n

n

nThe great wizard Snake God had died long ago. It was impossible for him to answer the old mage’s wailing.

n

n

nLei Luo shook his head, turned around, and flew towards the direction of the palace. He disappeared in an instant.

n

n

nThe old mage did not notice at all. He continued to kneel on the ground, kowtowing and begged the old ancestor to come out and save his majesty.

n

n

n…

n

n

nThe palace was in complete chaos.

n

n

nAlthough the few great mages had made arrangements at the first moment to stop the news from spreading, they knew that this could not be hidden for long.

n

n

nIf His Majesty could not be saved, everything would be useless.

n

n

nHowever, the hunt for the culprit had already begun.

n

n

nQueen Lina had just woken up. No matter how calm she was, her face was pale with fear at this moment.

n

n

nShe knew what this meant. Once the king died, the Faroe Kingdom would completely collapse.

n

n

nLeaving behind a young prince, there was no way to control the situation.

n

n

nShe rushed to the king’s sleeping palace and looked at the king who was completely unconscious. His face was dark and his breathing was shallow. Her eyes were wet.

n

n

nHowever, she tried her best not to cry because this was a sign of weakness.

n

n

nThis was absolutely not allowed in the palace. Not to mention at this critical moment.

n

n

nQueen Lina took a deep breath and calmed down from her obsessive-compulsive disorder. She quickly issued a few orders to invite the king’s most trusted minister into the palace and then made some other arrangements.

n

n

n“Healer, how is His Majesty’s condition?” She asked a magician who was trying to save him.

n

n

nThis magician stayed in the palace and even secretly stayed by the king’s side.

n

n

nHe was also a sixth-level elemental mage.

n

n

n“Queen, His Majesty’s condition is terrible. If it weren’t for the few great mages who used their magic power to stop the spread of the poison, His Majesty would have died.”
