Rebirth of the Noble Mage Behind the Scenes

Chapter 449 - 224: Black Pyramid



Fiddling with a pendant engraved with secret patterns in his hand, Anvis withdrew his gaze.

The pendant he held was the trigger key for the overall attack command. Once the effect of the Primordial Pendant in his hands was activated, the wearers of all other subsidiary pendants would sense it.

If nothing unexpected happened, then today, as all the main characters in his plan entered the ruins, would be the moment he activated the key.

The emergence of Helros' Unlimited Magic Book was a major event even in his previous life.

However, in his previous life, the time when this ruin appeared was not now, but twenty years later.

At that time, the already famous Landon happened to pass by the Mivela Basin, and unintentionally triggered something at night, leading to the unsealing of the ruins.

After a series of thrilling explorations, Landon's protagonist squad successfully overcame the crisis and acquired the Helros' Unlimited Magic Book, lost at the core of the ruins.

As mentioned previously, Helros disappeared in defeat with the Infinite Magic Book after the final battle.

In fact, although Helros himself was severely injured and went missing, his bizarre, pitch-black opponent didn't fare any better.

The ruin itself was entirely transformed from the remains of that extraterrestrial entity. It used the last bit of its strength to flee through space, but ultimately couldn't withstand the damage and perished.

Subsequently, its remaining body gradually corrupted the surrounding natural environment, thus forming this ruin.

Clearly, as a formidable bizarre entity capable of targeting Helros, the ruin must contain immeasurable dangers.

Anvis was very aware of this, so he didn't plan to enter it directly, but rather use it as one of his strategies.

It was like a natural trap, equipped with its own bait.

Lady Mandel would certainly be tempted by it, but given her nature, she probably wouldn't trust his words. Landon, a Fourth Rank Professional, wouldn't be very credible either, and would likely sneak into the ruins quietly.

After Landon brought back the message, the Starfire Organization should now also be aware of this matter.

Now, at the moment when he fully opens the ruins, some High Rank Prophets related to this will also have a sensation.

Maybe they cannot directly predict what is in the ruins, but they can be certain it is something of great importance.

But among these people, aside from Landon who has a chance of leaving with something due to his destiny, others, if unprepared, are likely to suffer heavy losses inside.

"Vivian, what day is it today?"

Gently sitting down on the cool surface of a rock at the summit, Anvis looked back at Xia Ye Yinghuo standing behind him and asked.

"Today is the 22nd of the Golden Flowing Month of the year 2462 in the Radiant History, my Lord Mirror Man," she replied, a bit puzzled as she flipped through the game calendar on her panel.

"The 22nd of the Golden Flowing Month, huh?"

Anvis nodded and casually injected a spell of magic power with Landon's characteristics into the ground. He had obtained it from the Power Seed he had collected from Landon before.

"The Stove Fire Month is drawing near, with Purple Moon Amis hanging high at the zenith, while Silver Moon Sevin hides in the night. Over the next few days, the War God Star will probably shine very brightly... exceptionally bright."

"Huh? What do you mean?"

Confused by Anvis's words, Xia Ye Yinghuo was at a loss.

"Nothing much."

Watching the sudden change in the weather over the distant basin, Anvis replied with a smile.

"Just a feeling that it should be a good day for a rebellion—"

.........

"The ground is starting to shake! It seems like something is about to come out!"

At this moment, many people present in the Mivela Basin felt that something was amiss.

The earth suddenly began to tremble, as cracks spread rapidly like a spider web, the sunlight in the sky dimmed, and clusters of dark clouds began to swirl and gather around the center of the basin, forming a spiral shape akin to the eye of a storm.

Even the clouds contained streaks of illusory pitch-black lightning infused with dream power, silent yet shockingly striking.

Witnessing such an astonishing scene, everyone could sense that some sort of drastic change was taking place.

In the attentive gaze of all, a giant black pyramid, slowly rose from the center of the basin.

The tower was wrapped in illusory ribbons of power, resembling black mist, which absorbed any attempt at spiritual exploration as water is absorbed by a sponge, and even began to erode it in reverse.

Only after many people hastily relinquished a portion of their spiritual power did the reluctant dark mist begin to withdraw.

"Is this the ruins?"

At the edge of the basin, Ray looked at the cataclysmic scene before him with a serious expression, feeling a hint of pressure as well.

"The mere appearance of it has such an incredible momentum; the level of danger inside must be unimaginable. Landon, are you sure you still want to enter?"

Turning his head with some worry, he looked towards Landon beside him. The youth's gaze was somewhat blank, as if he had been stunned by the scene before him.

"Landon... forget it, don't go in, it's too dangerous! We can ask the teacher to take care of my brother's situation later."

Feeling the aura of the ruins, Frey's face was also pale.

"Don't listen to them, Landon, you must go in and check it out! And somehow, I suddenly feel a bit familiar with this place, as if I've known about it before.

Perhaps after we enter, I can recall more information related to it."

But within Landon's spirit sea, Dark Crow put forth a different viewpoint.

However, seemingly worried about being discovered by Ray, this time Dark Crow did not roar but murmured in a more covert whisper.

Hearing everyone's words, Landon finally snapped back to reality.

In fact, without Dark Crow's words, he himself could feel it. The aura of the ruins seemed to share a very similar essence with the Power of Apoptosis that Dark Crow had recently imparted to him.

"Sorry, my Leader, but I still hope to explore inside," Landon said as he politely nodded to the people around him who were concerned for him, then respectfully addressed the leader and consoled the elf girl, whose eyes were already reddening.

"Don't worry about me, Frey, I won't do anything without any assurance."

Seeing this, Ray nodded without bringing up the matter again.

Everyone has their own thoughts, and after cautioning others, he would not continue to interfere with their choices.

Moments later, the anomaly of the pyramid gradually subsided, becoming silent. The fluctuation of the magic ribbons on it also began to stabilize, no longer as restless as when it first appeared.

"Time's about right."

Seeing this, Ray nodded his head.

It's time to act; such a vast abnormal celestial phenomenon had already attracted many independent professionals who witnessed the scene.

If too many strong individuals are drawn here, it could complicate the situation further. It would be better to explore the interior as soon as possible.

"Now, the condition of the ruins has stabilized. Those who wish to enter can now choose to accompany me inside; I can ensure your safe entry.

Afterward, whether you continue to follow me or explore on your own is up to you."
