Chapter 182: Preparations Although Zhao Yannian was also surprised by the strong restraint of these magicians who had become scavengers against the Soul Eater, Zhao Yannian, who had already received some information from Vikna, was mentally prepared, and now Zhao Yannian was even more surprised by the dragon that appeared behind the Lord of Water when he magnified his move.
Whether it was the scale claws that appeared by chance in the water waves, or the proud posture, it was no different from the image of the dragon in Zhao Yannian's mind.
"Dragon, the dragon of the previous world, although it may be a coincidence, but if there are other things I know in the future, then what the soul eater or the will of the world is is more and more curious."
Zhao Yannian, who was sitting in the control room of the Water Tower, had been monitoring the Water Lord Noyce's every move before, even if Delia moved to the ice and snow tundra hundreds of kilometers away with the Noyce space, it did not escape Zhao Yannian's gaze, and after confirming that Noyce was seriously injured, Zhao Yannian's plan could be said to have been completed.
Now it's just a matter of waiting for the Soul Eater to attack in a big way before launching the final arrangement.
With the home field of the Water Tower, Zhao Yannian can be said to have taken advantage of the enemy's light and darkness, after Noyce entered the fourth layer of the giant tower, Zhao Yannian began to lure the exploration team that Zhao Yannian had sentenced to death to approach the position of the Soul Eater, sure enough, after the third layer of space barriers were unlocked, Noyce's actions were much bolder, and after continuously slaughtering several baits sent by Zhao Yannian, Noyce knew what he wanted to know, And some of Zhao Yannian's previous arrangements also began to operate in the direction he expected at this time.
According to Zhao Yannian's previous observations, this Water Lord can be said to be a combination of caution and arrogance, he has been extremely cautious in the process of action, and in terms of the purpose of the action, it can almost be said that he is crazy, he actually wants to use the key of the third layer to open the space barrier of the Water Tower, trap all the human exploration teams in the Giant Tower, and with the endless water elemental power of the Water Tower as the backing, it is really possible for this Water Lord to completely wipe out all the human exploration teams.
And because of the Titan's spatial defense array, the humans under the Water Tower can't give their companions a rescue.
Of course, there is a serious misunderstanding in this, everyone thinks that the key can block the entire space of the Water Giant Tower, prohibiting all spatial teleportation activities, but in fact, the space seal on the outer wall before the Water Giant Tower is not open by the key in the hands of the Ice Queen.
Before, when Inuslave and Regana were trapped on the third layer, they didn't know what the situation was in the outside world, and then Zhao Yannian also searched for the whereabouts of these people after gaining control of the giant tower, and after confirming that the Soul Eater had left, Zhao Yannian opened the spatial defense on the outer wall of the Water Giant Tower to prevent anyone from using spatial magic to invade the tower next time.
And after the human exploration team was stuck on the third layer, after Noyce appeared, the various performances of the water lord made Zhao Yannian think of a good way to hit the other party hard without making the other party suspicious, so the key to the third layer became Zhao Yannian's bait, and at the same time that the human exploration team found the key and opened the space barrier on the third layer, Zhao Yannian also closed the space defense wall on the outer wall of the Water Tower.
At this time, Delia, who was able to use spatial abilities, could naturally perceive the changes in the giant tower, so the function of this key was amplified in everyone's consciousness.
At this time, the key of the Ice Queen on the third layer became a key that was enough to control the entire space of the Water Tower.
After Noyce knew about the existence of this key, he naturally couldn't help but want to keep the key for himself, and since this key can control the spatial defense of the giant tower, is this key the one that the king said can close the goblin ruins?
As time passed, the value of the key to the third layer was gradually magnified in the minds of the Soul Eaters, and for this reason, the Soul Eaters began to try to obtain it under the control of Zhao Yannian's invisible hands.
The three major guilds also have some speculation about the power of this key, but because of this, the presidents of the three major guilds and the lords have been unable to reach a consensus on the ownership of the key, no matter who the key may represent the ownership of the Water Tower, it is a huge threat to other forces, so the Supreme Council decided to escort the key back to the king and let His Majesty the king personally control it, which is not only a trade-off between the major forces, but also a gesture of goodwill and expression to the king by the three major guilds.
It is precisely because of this that this key was sent to the camp of the Water Tower, ready to be sent back to the royal capital, and Zhao Yannian had already made a small suggestion in time when he was arguing with the nobles in the Supreme Council Guild before this, since this key is so precious, how could the soul eaters lurking in or near the giant tower let the key be sent to the human inner realm?
So the executioner troops were ordered by the Supreme Council to escort the key to the royal capital with the highest specifications, and it was precisely because of Zhao Yan's young fluttering words that Noyce not only did not grab the key, but was also stabbed in the heart by the leader of the scavengers.
Zhao Yannian spent most of his time in the giant tower these days, and in order to hide his whereabouts, Zhao Yannian temporarily created an alchemy doll in his basement in the shape of himself, and the alchemy doll controlled by Xilu, who had a spiritual link with Zhao Yannian, could perfectly imitate almost all of Zhao Yannian's actions.
Coupled with the help of Zhao Yannian's several wives, no one found out that the lord who appeared in Rodnik's territory these days was actually an impostor.
Of course, during these days, Zhao Yannian would occasionally return to the territory a few times to deal with some important matters, as well as go to the Supreme Council to participate in meetings to ensure that this incident is still under his control.
It is not easy to control a conspiracy to develop according to his own plan, there are too many variables in this world, so Zhao Yannian has hardly rested these days, and his mind is full of conjectures about the results of the actions of various forces all day.
In addition, every time Zhao Yannian turned on the Valkyrie's stealth system and silencer system to take off and land from the water giant tower like a thief, Zhao Yannian was also very worried that he would be discovered by a sharp-eyed or special ability professional.
At this time, Zhao Yannian had to lament that it would be good if he had the talent to learn space magic, but it was a pity that the magic pattern technology developed by the executioners could only allow people to master the elemental power, and the executioners were helpless against the power of space power, which required a special soul form.
"Why did you suddenly remember to learn space magic!?"
Vic sat on the couch and looked at his old friend who had suddenly arrived in surprise, but he didn't expect the other party to ask him for books on space magic as soon as he entered the door.
"Don't you think space magic is a time-saving way to get on the road?"
Zhao Yannian gave the most real and unbelievable reason.
"I really can't stand your attitude towards magic, if you say such things in the Academy of Magic, you will definitely be sent by the headmaster to clean the monster cage."
Victor commented to Zhao Yannian, who looked calm.
"I didn't go to the Academy of Magic."
Zhao Yannian pushed his black-rimmed glasses and laughed.
"I haven't been on it either."
Vikana laughed too.
A few minutes later, Vikena took out a few crumpled magic booklets from the space ring and put them on the coffee table, and when Zhao Yannian grabbed the booklet with great interest and watched, Vikena struck at Zhao Yannian.
"Although space magic has never belonged to the orthodox element magic, the magic guild actually values the talents of the space department, and the orthodox attribute test of the magic guild actually includes the test of space attributes, if a young man has outstanding talent in the space department, then he will be forced to send to the magic guild for secret cultivation."
After listening to Victor's words, Zhao Yannian put down the booklet in his hand.
"In other words, my spatial talent can't match the outstanding?"
Zhao Yannian asked.
"This is a normal situation, don't be discouraged."
Vic said with a wicked grin.
"I'm afraid you don't know, I was jointly recognized by my teacher and an archmage that I can't become a great mage before the age of eighty."
Zhao Yannian replied with a confident smile.
"Uh......"
Vic touched his nose stupidly, not knowing what to say for a while.

"Okay, now that we're done talking about private matters, let's talk about business."
After Zhao Yannian put those booklets into his ring, he opened his mouth and said to Vikna.
"Business?
What business?
Victor was a little confused by Zhao Yannian's sudden transformation.
"This is an order from the Supreme Council, and I will be an observer sent by the Supreme Council to inspect the headquarters of the executioners, of course, the most important thing here is that I want to understand the specific combat power of the executioners and how to deal with the soul eaters, and then I will make a specific report to the Supreme Council as a specific report on what I see."
Zhao Yannian took out a document with the magic seal of the Supreme Council from the ring and handed it to Vikna.
"Why did the Supreme Council suddenly remember this?"
After receiving the order from the Supreme Council, Vikena asked Zhao Yannian while looking at the contents of the order.
"Of course the Supreme Council is so busy that I can't remember this, but I'm very idle, and you know that I've been doing business under that Titan Tower lately, and yesterday the Soul Eater destroyed a third of the Magic Guild's camp, and luckily, the mages avoided that area for some reason, otherwise the Magic Guild Elder would have gone mad.
You say that if those crazy people came to my Mithril Chamber of Commerce that day, I would have gone crazy too?
Zhao Yannian shrugged and gave Vic a half-truthful explanation.
