At night, the atmosphere around the campfire in the wild camp was not harmonious at all, but rather tit-for-tat.
The young aristocratic son stared angrily at the adventure group hired by his father. The slap on the back of his head still made him feel dizzy. However, he had seen all kinds of people and encountered all kinds of things.
Dangerous, this group of experienced adventurers simply ignored the non-threatening gaze.
But not everyone had no complaints about the current situation. The archer stirred the fire and complained: "Didn't I just agree that we would spend the night on a roof? Why did you come out to camp again?"
The warrior leader laughed sarcastically and then said: "I won't be at ease if I'm still living in the magic tower after something like that happened. Whether it's the tower owner or our people."
"Damn it!" the young noble snarled angrily, and said in a ferocious tone: "If you hadn't stopped me just now, I would have captured that vicious magician. It was only a few steps away."
"Oh, it's just a few steps away." The soldier continued to taunt, but he didn't want to start a bigger dispute with the employer's son. He turned towards the deserted forest and asked: "According to your opinion, we just won
What are the chances? Mehe."
The magician of the team was walking out of the forest. As soon as he appeared, he heard the leader's question. He said casually: "The correct question should be, if we just fought, how many people could survive.
"
"Oh, then Mai He, tell me, if there is a fight, how many of us will survive?"
"According to my original idea, except for me who can escape, you should all die."
"What were your original thoughts?" The warrior leader became curious about the key words he heard. He continued to ask the magician who was already sitting by the campfire: "What is your current opinion?"
"The current view is that except for the possibility of me escaping, you will all die." Looking at the surprised expressions of his companions, the magician shrugged and continued: "After all, my original plan was that once you guys started to make trouble,
, I will definitely run away as soon as possible. Those who don’t run, of course, have no chance.”
"Damn it!" It was the young nobleman again, he complained angrily: "If you don't stop me, just let me suppress the other party and put the magic-breaking blade on that hateful guy's neck, even if he is a Dharma Saint
, it’s of no use. He can only go to hell to pay for his sins.”
"Yes, that's right." The magician responded weakly, and whispered: "If you can get it on his own neck."
The warrior leader's eyes flashed, and he immediately thought of the key point and asked: "Mahe, what did you see in the core room?"
He tilted his head, thinking about how to organize his words. The magician said: "There are many things that are difficult to describe, but the most shocking thing is the tower owner himself. Well, to be precise, it is not the one we saw. It seems,
None of you realized that the person in front of you was just a clone. That’s normal, because I didn’t notice it either.”
The explosive news still shocked the companions around the campfire. But if you think about it carefully, it is normal. When guests come, the residents of the tower personally greet guests to represent goodwill, but generally speaking, it is the apprentices who come forward.
Unless they are acquaintances, or people of high enough status, the magician himself will greet them. Otherwise, anyone who comes will have to be greeted by the tower master himself. Then do we still need to do magic experiments? Halfway through reading
Do you want to interrupt? Being a tower owner is so cheap, so don’t do it.
To put it more plainly, this is just a courtesy to express goodwill. When the tower owner comes forward, he should negotiate. After the negotiation, everyone will do what they want to do. If the visiting guests cannot find out that the tower owner who came forward is just a clone,
Naturally, there is no such thing as being disrespectful.
Even if it is really rude, so what? It is common for some masters of magic towers with high enough status to have puppets or servants who are ordinary people come forward to receive them. This does not violate the rules that must be maintained by magician inspectors.
Law. Moreover, if you feel unhappy because of the other party's impoliteness, if you have the ability, you can attack the tower and drag out the extremely arrogant magician to beat him. If the visiting guest really has such ability, the tower owner cannot help but ignore it.
.
Besides, some people in my team also came to visit with bad intentions. I really can’t blame the other party for hiding in the core room. However, the well-informed warrior leader was still curious and asked: "What kind of weapon did he use?"
Do you understand the clone magic? Mai He."
"According to what the tower owner said, it's called three-dimensional imaging. He gave a rough explanation, but I couldn't understand it. There was only one part that I understood, which was that the magic relied on the magic tower to operate, and it was a trap type of magic.
It’s a kind of thing that can’t be used in other places.”
The aristocratic young man who was not willing to become a supporting role snorted coldly and said: "So what if he deceived us with his clones? Can he prevent us from going up to the third floor? Or maybe it just gives us a reason to go up. Right, Captain Haas?"
.”
In the world of life and death, failure to see through the deception means death. The adventure group and others wanted to warn the noble young master like this, but they still looked at the man who came out from behind the young master. The strongest sword in the hands of Count Sita, Thunder
The commander of the Lightning Legion──Richard Haas, is an upright and powerful knight.
Although wars between countries and between nobles are less frequent in this era, it is not that there are no threats to the development of civilization. Beasts living in nature, even monsters, as well as uncivilized and accustomed
The threat of plundering others or destroying their own Homo sapiens race was the reason why lords everywhere maintained armaments.
Some people are willing to accept others, for fear that the sharp blade in their hands will turn around and hurt themselves. But there are also people who accept talents. As long as their subordinates are really capable, they will turn a blind eye to minor problems, close their eyes, and ignore them. Richard Haas's
His shortcoming is his stubbornness, but he is trustworthy when it comes to training and using troops. This has created a regiment that is famous in the kingdom, and has also brought prosperity to the earldom with both fame and fortune.
This time, in order to protect his eldest son, Count Sita asked the legion commander to go out personally. It was impossible to bring the entire legion, but he also brought a squadron, followed by the elite Bai Lai. As for the five-person adventure group,
It is used by the old Jianghu who lead the way and let their sons see the world.
In terms of status, of course the warrior leader cannot command the legion commander who is in charge of more than 3,000 people, but the noble young master can. Although he is not able to obey all orders, Richard Haas still got a lot from the count.
He has autonomy, but on the premise of protecting the life of his young master, he will not be so unkind as to disobey any request. Not to mention that from what he has heard about the evil deeds of the tower master, he will not do anything if he has the opportunity.
If you are given punishment, he will not refuse.
So when Richard Haas came forward, it meant that he was also seriously considering the possibility of attacking the Magic Tower. Such information had to be faced by the adventurous pairs with caution.
However, looking at the heavily armored knights with a few white hairs in their prime, the magician half mocked and half warned: "The legion commander will not think of a surprise attack on the magic tower.
.”
"Did you betray our whereabouts?" His voice was slightly chilly, Richard Haas stared at this group of hired people.
The magician shrugged his shoulders and denied it. At the same time, he also remembered the situation of the previous meeting with the tower master.
───
Machelind Fleiss went up to the core room on the third floor. In addition to seeing the two owners of the Great Sage's Tower, one of them - the one who followed him - stepped onto the third floor.
Disappear like a phantom.
Apart from being shocked, I also saw that the layout of this place was completely different from the core rooms of other magic towers. The biggest difference was that in addition to the energy pool standing upright in mid-air, there were also dozens of images formed by the water mirror technique hanging above.
In front of the console and next to the energy pool.
Most of the things in the pictures were unrecognizable to the visiting magicians. However, a few could tell that they were of the same nature as the surveillance pictures they saw on the first floor. It was just that the content was not what they had seen before.
The scene of a villager breaking into the tower and then being killed was the scene of the companions on the first floor leaving the magic tower after a discussion that was not a discussion.
"It seems that your companion is no longer willing to live in my tower." As a prelude, Lin stood up and saluted his companion, and said: "First meeting, Magician Lin Defries. I am the Great Sage.
The master of the tower, Gabra Shlyn Tripwood."
After making a haha and returning the gift, Lindflese did not intend to pursue the matter of the clone welcoming guests. Magicians, especially those who have been adventuring outside for a long time, all have a common belief that no etiquette or power can be trivial.
Life is important. The damn rules for magicians to come out are just to cater to the bullshit reasons of ordinary nobles.
He was actually curious about one of the Water Mirror Techniques. The map around the Tower of the Great Sage was suspected to be full of light spots of different colors, large and small, and moving around. "Excuse me, sir, what are these light spots?"
?”
"Oh, that's a biological aura." Without waiting to ask questions, Lin Ye followed his curious colleagues to the map screen and continued: "I say it's a biological aura. It's actually my own way of saying it. Because I still do it up to now.
It is unclear what the observed things are based on. It may be the magic power of the magician, or the fighting spirit of the warrior, or even the spiritual power emitted by the soul. In short, the size of the light spot can represent the biological
The size of the body and the depth of the color can represent the level of his energy essence."
Pointing to a spot of light on the screen, Lindflese continued to ask: "What do you think that spot of light represents?"
Lin walked back to the console and fiddled with his things. He replied casually: "Maybe it's the army from somewhere. It's just that I don't know what race it is and where it comes from."
"Oh, why would you directly assert that this is an army, not immigrants, or gregarious monsters?"
"Even if the immigrants hire powerful mercenaries as guards, they will inevitably include some women or children. Generally speaking, the aura of these two creatures is not strong. As for the aura you are referring to, it does not matter if it is strong.
, and very average. So it is unlikely to be immigrants. As for the gregarious monsters, there will be no large-scale gathering of herbivorous monsters in the forest. If it is a carnivorous monster, it will also be due to the lack of food here.
They will leave after wreaking havoc, and will not stay here. Moreover, their behavior pattern should be more dispersed, which is conducive to increasing the range of distribution and hunting more prey that can satisfy their hunger. Being able to gather together so densely
Yes, apart from the army established by Homo sapiens, I can’t think of any other possibility.”
"Then you are not worried at all. What is the purpose of this army appearing here?"
"If they wanted to say hello, they would have visited me long ago. Without alerting me, it means that they have other secret tasks to carry out, and it is not easy for me to get involved and say that I have discovered your whereabouts. Anyway, this kind of person,
I should just stay for one night and leave the next day to carry out my own mission. If you don't leave by tomorrow morning and don't notify me, just treat it as an unfriendly and evil guest and just bomb it. After all, in
On the mainland, the military's actions have its own rules. Intruding into other people's territory without permission is an act of aggression, and you deserve to die. Isn't it?"
Lin smiled kindly, but it made Mahlind Fleis' scalp tingle.
