As the unknown creature was too fast, it caused quite a bit of dust when it landed on the door.
After the dust settled, the crowd finally saw its appearance. It was a giant creature over six meters long.
It was shaped like a bat. Its muscular limbs shone with a cold light. Its huge wings were wrapped in muscles. Its red and black metal skin reflected a cold light under the sunlight.
“What sort of monster is this?!!!!”
Karl looked at the strange creature on the door of the Alchemy Tower with a look of surprise.
This creature was too strange. He had never seen it in his textbooks.
However, he could feel that this creature possessed strength that was not inferior to his own. It even faintly surpassed him.
“Gargoyle? No, this isn’t a Gargoyle. Isn’t a Gargoyle pure black? Could it be an advanced version of a Gargoyle?!! How is that possible? Didn’t such a creature die with the Tower race long ago?”
“Why is there such a powerful alchemical creature in this Alchemy Tower? This is going to be troublesome…” Anthony looked at the monster sitting on the door of the Alchemy Tower in shock.
“Mage Anthony, have you seen such a monster before?�� Karl hurriedly asked as he looked at the shocked Mage Anthony.
“I’ve never seen it before, nor do I know it. I’ve read about this monster in the history books. It’s a creature that was wiped out by the Tower race three thousand years ago.”
“Three thousand years ago, there were eight kingdoms formed by eight different races: Elves, Magic Towers, Undead, Elemental Magic, Underground Fortress, Swamp City, Demons, Barbarian Beasts. Humans were enslaved by these eight races, and could only hide in caves and live like ants. Each of those seven races had a great existence. But for some reason, the extraordinary existence of these eight races disappeared from the world overnight. No one knew what happened and the only records about them were in the books.”
“Based on what you said, does Swoks have something to do with the eight kingdoms thousands of years ago?” Karl asked in surprise.
“No, it’s impossible. For thousands of years, no one has discovered anything related to it. There are no clues at all. This Swoks might have accidentally created this Gargoyle.
“However, this Gargoyle is a little different from the description of the Gargoyle I’ve seen in books. The Gargoyle described in books is entirely grayish-black in color, but the creature in front of me is red-black in color. Moreover, it looks a little like the Red Crystal. This Gargoyle, no, it should be said that it’s an advanced version of a Gargoyle. It’s really a little special!” Anthony replied calmly.
“Oh, Mage Anthony has quite a good understanding. That’s right, my Gargoyle is not an ordinary Gargoyle, but an advanced version of it. Compared to ordinary Gargoyles, my Red Crystal Gargoyle has stronger resistance to magic and is more sturdy.” Mas’s voice sounded in everyone’s ears through the alchemical loudspeaker.
Hearing Mas’s voice, Karl and Anthony looked at each other. It was not the voice they had been thinking about day and night, but an ordinary and clear teenage voice.
It was obviously not Swoks’ voice. They could tell immediately.
“Is there something wrong with the intelligence? Is there anyone else in the Alchemy Tower besides Swoks?” Karl asked.
“Mage Anthony, you sorcerers know more about alchemists. Please ask this alchemist what is his relationship with Swoks!” Karl bent down and whispered in Anthony’s ear.
Upon hearing this, Anthony nodded to indicate that he had understood. He looked at the Alchemy Tower and asked telepathically, “This unknown alchemist, I don’t know how to address you. What is your relationship with Swoks?”
Inside the Alchemy Tower, Mas could hear Anthony’s voice through the spell. He rubbed his chin with his left hand, his eyes flickering. Countless memories crossed his mind.
“Right, they’re looking for trouble with Swoks. They naturally haven’t seen me before, nor do they know my identity!
I can totally fabricate an identity and clear my master-disciple relationship with Swoks. Then, they will naturally not be able to blame me. Perhaps, with the Gargoyle around, they will be tight on the frontlines. They might even curry favor with me because of my identity as an alchemist!” Mas secretly clicked his tongue.
Mas rehearsed his speech a few times in advance and then replied through the alchemical loudspeaker, “I am Mas, a great alchemist who is determined to travel the world. I visit famous alchemists everywhere and discuss the mysteries of alchemy with them.
“Today, I saw a magnificent Alchemy Tower in the Gloom Forest, so I specially came over to discuss alchemy with the master. Unexpectedly, before we even started, you guys barged in.”
“Because this tower master was overly afraid, he had long fled with his money. Now, I am the only one left in this huge Alchemy Tower. In order to avoid trouble, I had no choice but to activate my alchemical creature and defend myself!”
“Everyone, I don’t know your relationship with the master Swoks. You can wait for me to withdraw and attack again. If not, I will have no choice but to activate an even stronger alchemical creature!”
After hearing what Mas said, Karl and Mage Anthony looked at each other and saw the strong shock in each other’s eyes. Activate an even stronger alchemical creature?
The voice of the young alchemist beside his ear was at most sixteen years old. This alchemist who came out of nowhere had a powerful alchemical creature, and it was an alchemical creature that had long lost its craftsmanship!
They did not doubt it too much. Although they were not alchemists, they knew some basic alchemy knowledge. Alchemical creatures had a periodic life. Under normal circumstances, alchemical creatures were in a closed state and would only be activated when there was a need. The Red Crystal Gargoyle in front of them was not something that he and Mage Anthony could benefit from. If they were to activate a bigger alchemical creature, they might not be able to escape unscathed. However, it was the king’s order behind them.. After thinking for a while, Karl answered.
