The magic tower built on a small hill, together with the other five towers, formed an almost substantial barrier to surround the large library complex in the basin.
That barrier gives someone the feeling of seeing a five-story high-voltage power grid, with clearly visible blue-white plasma flowing throughout the body. It seems that as soon as any conductor comes close, the plasma flow will flow to that area. Place it on people and things, and make them burnt on the outside and tender on the inside.
The area around the Magic Tower is not quiet at all. Because no one can forcefully pass through the barrier, it would be like fighting against the power of six towers at once. So those who plan to enter the Great Library or work in the Great Library , all must pass through the Magic Tower. Over time, a market was formed around the Magic Tower.
Most of them are shops selling all kinds of food. If you set up an awning and put in a few tables and chairs, it can become a small restaurant. Because eating and drinking are not allowed inside the Great Library, if anyone dares to violate the prohibitions set by the magistrates, the consequences will be dire. It's not just a warning or a small fine that will solve the problem. If you peel off a layer of skin, you'll be considered lucky.
The second most popular place is the smokehouse. As one of the few entertainments in the Lost Land, smoking is of course also popular among magicians. Then smoking in a place full of books? This is more serious than eating in a big library. .The magistrates will not punish or warn, they will kill anyone who dares to light a fire!
There are so many magicians who are killed every year for violating this ban. They all think that they are addicted to cigarettes, and as long as no one sees them, it will be fine. They do not think that they are in the fifth level of magic in the six-level magic saint. Under the supervision of the tower, unless you hide in another dimension to smoke, as long as you get a little hot, your life will be gone, without exception.
Therefore, people who want to relieve their addiction to cigarettes can only leave the confines of the big library and go to the cigarette dens in the market outside to smoke to their heart's content.
Also as a refreshing product, the number of coffee shops in the market has increased year by year. The reason why there are not as many as opium shops is purely due to the coffee production and not enough people who know how to roast and brew coffee.
As long as there is a way to grab a site outside the magic tower and start a coffee business, you will be busy from morning to night, with no time to spare. The shop will be closed, and there will only be one reason: no materials.
Although the area around the Magic Tower is lively, no one would block all the roads without foresight. On the contrary, the road planning here has developed a very efficient road system after hundreds of years of operation.
If you dare to dissatisfy and want to cross the line, take a look at the high tower above you. Kill or bury it. In the lost area, it refers to the magic tower, and if you blast down the offensive tower with magic, you still have nothing to bury. kind.
Looking at the lively scene in the early morning outside the window, someone felt like he was in another world. Speaking of which, since I came to the Holy City, I really haven't taken a walk in it to take a good look at the city.
Looking up again, I thought that a mere five-story building was nothing to a time traveler. But when I looked up from the bottom of the tower, I saw that the tower actually gave people a towering feeling. The feeling of entering the sky. The top of the tower seems to be infinitely far away, intangible and out of reach.
After taking a closer look, he discovered that there is a mystery hidden in the outer wall of the tower. It uses color to create a visual illusion for others, so that when looking up from below, it feels like it is towering. This discovery surprised Lin. Unexpectedly, I'm so surprised that I can actually see such an arrangement. I don't know if the tower owner who did this is purely speaking from experience, or if he has really studied these visual misleadings.
Another less surprising thing is the illusion lingering around this magic tower.
Although the magic tower in the Lost Land is a war fortress, it is not that mysterious. Because regarding the size of the magic tower, the formation of the main attack magic, and the layout of the tower, as long as you have money, you can buy a simplified tower log from the Magician Association.
'I learned that there will also be an introduction to the Magic Tower, its history, previous tower owners and other information.
Of course, it is impossible for a simplified tower journal to contain all the magic towers in the land. Usually, a simplified tower journal will contain the resumes and introductions of ten to twenty magic towers. There is also one that is only provided to
The successor tower owner contains more detailed information, including the transformation process of previous tower owners. The magician who succeeds the tower owner can specify and purchase it from the association.
Of course, someone's knowledge of Tower VI is a detailed version. As for the source of the information... it cannot be said, it cannot be said explicitly. Everyone just knows it. Those who use free resources should keep a low profile.
According to the Tower Chronicles, Tower VI, one of the six towers in the Holy City of Estali, is best at phantom illusions. The internal space is like a maze. It can be said that among the six towers, it has the strongest magic ability to trap enemies and confuse them.
tower.
But the tower records are only historical records after all. It is unknown what changes the current tower owner has made on the basis of the magic tower. And this part is usually the trump card of the current tower owner. There are even those who are tricky and will use the tower to
The log records were used as an inducement, but the actual settings in the tower were changed to the completely opposite situation, making the road that was originally shown as a safe road in the data become a trap.
In addition to the tower log as reference data, the introduction of the local great magician Kabambai also allowed Lin to understand the current situation of Tower VI. The first floor of the magic tower has the most people coming in and out, and it can almost be regarded as a public place.
Everyone who enters and leaves the Great Library will be registered and checked here. In order to protect the books inside, some contraband cannot be brought in. However, only advice and safekeeping will be provided here, and no drastic actions will be taken.
Starting from the second floor, there is a space belonging to the tower owner. In addition to regular traffic, if you want to handle matters related to the Great Library, you have to go to the second floor. The third floor is the defense floor, with the famous folding space of Tower VI.
Maze with phantom.
It operates in the most basic state in normal times, but when facing foreign enemies, this maze can be expanded to trap an army of ten thousand people within it. The large army can be divided into individual units, causing them to get lost in the maze.
There is very little information about the fourth floor. Some say it is similar to the setting on the third floor. Others say it is the living space where the apprentices of the tower master, the Dharma Saint, live and practice magic. But there are only two students of the current tower master.
The individual is still with their teacher. Although he is a second-level magic apprentice, his combat prowess and strength are said to be as good as those of a formal magician.
The fifth floor is the private domain of Saint Mildiades, and it is also the core part of the entire magic tower. But unlike most magicians who do not welcome outsiders to enter the core of the magic tower, Mildiades’ friends
With some guests, they are often invited to the fifth floor for a small talk, showing the degree of closeness between the two parties...or the degree of trouble. Think about the situation when an outsider wants to pass through the third or fourth floor.
"So the most ideal situation is to have that gentleman's student come forward and accept the journals we presented on the second floor. Then you can leave." Lin said.
Kabanbai had no words to respond to someone's strange conclusion. Although he was vaguely aware that this young man didn't like attracting attention, it was rare to see him being so afraid of things.
Most people are eager to become famous, and profit will follow closely behind. This person hopes that others will treat him as a transparent person and ignore him. But what he does attracts everyone's attention.
It's really a contradiction.
However, from the life-saving point of view of the great magician Kaban Bai, it is a good thing to be able to leave other people's magic towers as soon as possible. Now he no longer needs to let a magic saint touch his head, and then excitedly go around to promote his achievements
The rewards come to make one famous.
The Dharma Saint who can sit in the Sixth Tower of the Holy City may behave very kindly, but he definitely has nothing to do with the word "good old man". If you are deceived by their appearance, the consequences are obvious.
In any case, the great magician Kabamba tried to hide, and his not so calm behavior made someone following him feel a little uneasy. But what was supposed to come would come, and Lin could only obediently hold the bag of mathematics in his hands.
The wooden box of the journal followed the old man and walked into a five-story magic tower.
The lobby on the first floor is no different from the general offices of the Magicians Association, or the reception halls of the Adventurer's Guild and Mercenary Guild. There is a noisy group of people crowded in front of the counter, harassing the little boy sitting behind.
Girl or young person.
Of course, the so-called harassment is nothing more than verbal teasing. If anyone dares to touch someone, first think about where they are. At least no one dares to drink and cause trouble in such a place, or pretend to be crazy while drinking.
People who want to go up to the second floor to do business don't have to mix with those who want to enter the big library. There is a staircase next to it. Just say something to the guard guarding the stairs and you can go up.
Logically speaking, there are no firewalls or soundproof doors in the stairwell. The open passage should allow the noise on the first floor to be transmitted to the second floor. But once you go up to the second floor, it is like entering another world, it is quite quiet.
There was no one there either. The only counter lady at the reception desk was fiddling with her hair in boredom.
As soon as she saw someone coming up, she immediately stood up, made a fairly standard professional smile, and said, "Good day, Your Excellencies. I don't know if I can help you."
"Good day, ma'am. I am Kabamba, and this is the wizard Guy Blasch Tripwood. We are here to present ten volumes of mathematical journals to the Great Library. We hope you will check them out."
Upon hearing the name, the female apprentice smiled kindly and said: "Two of you, please sit down for a moment. Lord Hakim has told you that you two will come, and he will receive you personally. I will inform Lord Hakim immediately."
It looks very troublesome. Lin thought to himself. The lady at the reception desk said she wanted to inform, but in fact she did not leave. Maybe it was like the bank alarm bell on Earth. After touching a switch somewhere, she took the seat temporarily.
The two people next to the seats in the waiting area were served two cups of hot elf flower tea.
After a while, a handsome young man with two silver tassels tied on his chest came out from the stairs behind the counter. He bowed respectfully to the great magician Kaban, but did not look at anyone.
It's almost like treating another person as the principal's follower.
After a few polite words, the arrogant magic apprentice said: "Teacher hopes to meet you in person, so please come with me." He turned around, waved his hand, and welcomed the great magician Kabamba.
If someone hadn't been holding something to donate, I'm afraid he would have been turned away. From the expression of disgust shown by the young man when he saw him walking by, Lin guessed this. It seems that this
