Magicians never make wishes

Chapter 173 The Dark Prince, the Twelve Constellations

The twelve people in the Dark Abyss remained like bystanders from beginning to end.

They watched everything unfold in the arena with indifference, occasionally launching a few casual attacks at the crystal golem.

These attacks should have been ineffective against the crystal golem.

But that was a moment ago.

Now, with the fierce attack of the Dark Trio, the Crystal Puppet has not only lost some of its self-healing ability, but its defense has also been greatly reduced.

Once everyone realized this, the intensity of their attack instantly increased significantly.

Take advantage of his illness and kill him.

Everyone here knows it deeply.

The magic array created by the nine people of the Eternal Night Kingdom became practically useless in the later stages.

No matter how frantically the Crystal Puppet fought back in the early stages, it was all in vain. After that, it gradually lost the desire to attack the magic circle again.

Ronan stood by and watched with great interest as the contestants used their attack methods.

If we divide them by faction, the Dark Tower currently appears to have the most powerful attack.

This was mainly due to the contributions of the Dark Trio.

Not only did they employ a variety of methods, but they also fully utilized the abilities of each branch of the Necromancer faction.

The Dark Tower is dedicated to maintaining the balance of all lineages, ensuring that each profession has a complete lineage and that no lineage has ever been particularly outstanding or weak.

This can be seen from the group in the Dark Tower.

Not only are the three professions of the Dark Trio of equal rank, but the professions of the rest of the group are also diverse, encompassing all five factions.

The fact that it can achieve this level of excellence is naturally due to the academy's rich heritage and its vast and comprehensive lineage.

No wonder it's ranked second in the Necromancer academy.

Clearly, their goal is to surpass the number one ranked Abyss.

Ronan had also researched the Dark Tower on the Magic Network.

Its selection process is quite unique, resembling a religious one.

The strongest person in each rank will be selected as a Holy Son and given special training.

Interestingly, there are actually three new first-tier holy sons this year.

Ronan guessed that these three were undoubtedly triplets, otherwise they wouldn't be called the Dark Trio, the trinity.

In contrast, the Abyss of No Darkness, as the representative academy of the necromancy system, has a fixed number of twelve participants for each level.

These twelve individuals represent different constellations that illuminate the abyss, and each is capable of standing alone.

It is said that these twelve constellations can, at certain times, borrow the power of others to enhance themselves, thereby greatly increasing their strength.

Therefore, if you want to deal with the people of the Dark Abyss, it is best to wait until they are alone before making your move.

This is what Ronan saw on the Magic Network.

There have been targeted analyses of them by specific individuals.

It's estimated that the person must have some deep-seated grudge against the Abyss of No Darkness, which is why they weren't afraid of retaliation and wrote down these details.

As for the Eternal Night Kingdom, Ronan didn't find any similar targeted analysis.

Strictly speaking, the forum on the Eternal Night Kingdom has extremely high authority, and even if there are related discussions, they will quickly lose popularity or be deleted directly.

Ronan even suspected that the relevant reviewers might be from the Eternal Night Kingdom.

Based on the information currently available, the people from the Eternal Night Kingdom are not so easy to deal with.

Previously, they deliberately concealed their abilities on the first floor, then inexplicably lost a teammate on the second floor, and now on the third floor, they suddenly created this magic circle that killed others—

No matter how you look at it, Ronan felt that this group of people had ulterior motives and hidden plans.

However, Ronan didn't seem to care.

What purpose could someone have in participating in the faction representative battle?

It's simply about getting a good ranking and points.

As long as it's not directed at him personally, he doesn't care about so many things.

The Eternal Night Kingdom ranked third, while the people sent by the bottom-ranked Death Valley were clearly much weaker.

In reality, the Valley of the Dead cannot achieve the mastery of all five meridians like the Dark Tower, but it also has its own advantages.

The Necromancers have always been a major pillar of the Necromancer Valley.

The necromancers of the Dead Valley are able to hold their own against their counterparts of similar strength from the other three academies.

However, after observing, Ronan discovered that, apart from himself, four of the six people from the Valley of the Dead were sorcerers, and one was a skeletal demon.

The Necromancer and Flesh lineages are completely devoid of talent; it's a veritable talent drain.

He had no idea why an academy known for its necromancers would have so many sorcerers.

If you include myself, an elemental mage, the whole lineup becomes even more bizarre.

Ronan had a vague feeling that the academy's higher-ups had already tacitly given up on the first-tier points.

In other words, whether it's him or these six people, they're basically just going to their deaths if they come here.

Thinking of this, Ronan couldn't help but shake his head helplessly.

He slightly raised his eyes and looked at the scene of the crowd beating up the crystal puppet.

At this moment, the four sorcerers of the Dead Valley are using elemental magic of the zero ring to attack.

He couldn't help but feel a little emotional.

That's right. The curses cast by a first-tier sorcerer have absolutely no effect on inorganic life forms, especially alchemical puppets with a certain level of magic resistance.

It's laughable that a first-tier sorcerer would use zero-ring elemental magic.

The other three academies seemed to have anticipated this, and had already accepted that it wouldn't be surprising if the bottom-ranked Dead Valley made any strange moves or phenomena.

Ronan was somewhat relieved that he hadn't joined them.

Otherwise, with four sorcerers using zero-ring elemental magic, plus him, a genuine elemental mage using ring-level elemental magic, they might really make their opponents laugh to death on the spot.

To the uninitiated, this might seem like a battle between factions representing the elemental system.

Compared to the baby-bus-like attacks of the four sorcerers, the attacks of the Dark Triad were simply on a different level.

The crystal golem was basically exhausted, and the three-meter-long sword had no chance to be used.

As a guardian puppet of the third level, its strength is determined by the number of people who actually enter the Tower of Babel.

Based on current estimates, it will be defeated only after eliminating half of the competitors.

Unexpectedly, it was trapped in a special magic array right from the start, and after killing only three insignificant weaklings, it was completely powerless to fight back.

The alchemical puppets in the Tower of Babel possess a higher level of intelligence compared to ordinary alchemical puppets.

Essentially, as long as the Tower of Babel exists, these puppets will not be completely destroyed.

Each time it is destroyed, the magic towers will accumulate energy and reshape their physical forms during the days they are not open to the public.

Their sole purpose is to filter out a certain number of contestants.

Over the years, this has become an implicit indicator.

Unfortunately, this time, the crystal golems, acting as the third layer of guards, clearly failed to achieve their goal.

It looked at the crowd outside the magic circle and let out a final, desperate roar before falling silent under a fierce attack.

At the same time, the fourth-floor entrance opened, and the original staircase spiraled upwards again, forming a new staircase leading to the fourth floor.
