"Hello, adventurer. It's an honor to see you in this tower. You are the first human to appear here in a thousand years." The old man, who was so thin that only his bones were left, looked at him with dull eyes.
With Ma Yingjie.
The old man was holding a black staff in his hand. The top of the staff was a lifelike carved bat with its legs hanging upside down. It looked like a high-quality product at first glance. Moreover, Ma Yingjie could feel the powerful magic elements surrounding the old man.
As for what magic element it was, Ma Yingjie couldn't confirm it.
Ma Yingjie could clearly feel the aura emanating from the old man's body. It had the scorching heat of fire magic, the coldness of water-washing magic, and even the thickness of earth magic and the lightness and agility of wind magic.
"Aren't you a human?" After Ma Yingjie said this straightforwardly, he suddenly felt a hairy feeling. The old man said this. He should not be a human being. He was not too big standing among hundreds of corpses.
Ma Yingjie responded, this time he was really a little scared.
Just like a person who is used to reading ghost stories, and suddenly a ghost actually appears in front of him, you can imagine his inner confusion.
"I used to be a human being, but I haven't been for a long time." The skinny old man made a strange tone. In addition to the chilling tone of death, there was also a review of his past life.
"Crack." The old man hit the ground with the bat staff in his right hand, and let out a long sigh: "Let's not mention those old things. Our era has passed. Time flies so fast. Thousands of years have passed in a flash.
I’m afraid there aren’t many old immortals still alive today.”
In fact, Ma Yingjie really wanted to say that Kerella was still alive, but he held it back in the end. After all, everyone was unfamiliar with him. Who knew if that damn Kerella had an old grudge with this old man, and he became a victim among them.
It's just not worth it.
"Young adventurer, I am the great wizard Ferrandis. As a member of the former human race, I am asking you for a favor. I wonder if you can help me." The old man's zombie-like face did not move at all, and his voice did not move at all.
It comes out from between the teeth.
System prompt: Your request to trigger the Great Wizard, do you accept it?
"Accept." Ma Yingjie readily chose to accept. It is difficult to encounter wild missions like this, and no one knows whether this mission is unique. You must know that the more hidden missions are usually, the rewards you will get after completing them.
The higher.
As a player, Ma Yingjie would certainly not let go of the opportunity to get rewards.
"Brave adventurer, I am very pleased that you are willing to help the old immortal fulfill his wish. I will thank you again after it comes true."
"Of course, I'd like to hear from you." Ma Yingjie replied respectfully. His performance will affect Ferandis's mood. When he is in a bad mood, no one knows the task that he has worked so hard to complete. The old man
They will use whatever rubbish they want to kill themselves. On the other hand, if the NPC is pleasing to the player, it is possible to get some additional items from the NPC on top of what they deserve.
"Young man, are you willing to listen to me talk about history?" Ferandis moved his cloudy eyes to look at Ma Yingjie, waiting for Ma Yingjie's confirmation.
"Of course, what I admire most are you heroes in the holy war." Ma Yingjie used the flattering skills he learned from Lin Zhifei, but obviously Ma Yingjie was not good at flattering others.
The wizard said with a hint of reproach in his tone: "Have the humanities and customs of the hometown I longed for day and night fallen to this? Young people should talk less and do more practical things. This is the rule of life."
Ma Yingjie was speechless as he watched Ferandis make a confession, mentally greeting Ferandis's eighteen generations who had long since passed away. The words in them were extremely insulting and could be called a model of national abuse. As for the details,
I won’t list them all because they are too violent.
Ferrandis continued to recall that past event: "Back then, I was a young magic apprentice full of fighting spirit. If it hadn't been for the damn undead invasion, I might have inherited my teacher's mantle and become the master of the Emerald Tower.
It's just like a baby's face that changes at any moment. No one thought how the undead far away in the west of the continent broke through the blockades and came here.
I still remember that day. The entire city of Corsus was occupied by undead creatures. The endless undead creatures all over the sky annihilated the entire city of Corsas like a tide.
Damn the undead, if it weren't for them, my teacher wouldn't have died." At this point, Ferandis's mood became agitated, and a dazzling red light shot out of his empty pupils.
"Great wizard Ferandis, it's been nearly a thousand years since this happened. Please show your condolences. No matter how great the resentment is, it should fade away over time." Ma Yingjie couldn't help but dissuade him.
"Haha, young man, I lost my composure. You must have heard all these things I said." Ferandis laughed dryly after hearing Ma Yingjie's words, and retracted his distant thoughts.
It’s none of my business whether you are still a master, but it’s true what I heard. Can’t this haunting guy talk about the key points? Do you think it’s a popular point card game in the 21st century, specially made up?
There is so much nonsense to defraud players of their point cards.
"This is normal. Seniors have lived alone for nearly a thousand years. When you meet someone who can listen to you, of course you will talk more. But forgive me for being stupid, I really didn't understand. The old man is talking about the key points." Of course, the last thing is.
Ma Yingjie thought about those words in his heart, just for a moment, so that Ferrandis wouldn't know about it.
"At that time, after the royal city was invaded by undead creatures, Prince Corsus led his imperial guards to the Emerald Tower and asked my teacher for help. The teacher agreed to Prince Corsus, but then the undead army tried to eradicate the weeds.
With this idea in mind, they once again besieged the Feilan Tower. The Imperial Guards took advantage of the tower to put up a desperate resistance, but in the end they were able to break through the tower gate due to the outnumbered enemy.
Facing the overwhelming undead creatures, the teacher knew that he would die this time. He sent Prince Corsus to the compartment at the top of the tower, used confinement magic to imprison the prince in the magic circle, and placed him in the aisle leading to the top.
Full of layers of imprisonment.
The most powerful formation master in my teacher's class at the time, and even the most powerful Finnish priest at the time, was inferior to him in the formation field.
The low-level undead creatures were blocked out by the formation, but it had no effect on a lord-level terror knight. After being broken through by the terror knight through multiple layers of formations, the teacher activated the Space Silence Magic, and with that lord-level terror knight
The Terror Knights died together on the sixth floor."
After saying this, Ferrandis turned around and looked at Ma Yingjie seriously with empty eyes and said: "Most of the undead creatures were unable to break through the formation set by the teacher, and finally left. Only a small number of undead creatures rushed with the terrifying knight.
After entering the tower, we were trapped on the third floor by the combined efforts of all our fellow apprentices, so we, our fellow apprentices, were able to save our lives.
The entire territory of the Kingdom of Corsus was occupied by undead creatures. This tower that was once regarded as a glory by the people of Corsus was gradually forgotten by the world and became the Forgotten Tower.
After a long period of time, all the brothers and sisters have passed their limit and died. Only I have mastered the five series of magic and extended my life to five hundred years. In order to fulfill my teacher’s last wish, after five hundred years, I chose to destroy my body and become an undead.
Because the life of the undead has no time limit.
But now the energy of the formation we deployed earlier is disappearing rapidly. It is impossible for me to trap those undead creatures again with my own strength. What I want you to do is to kill those trapped undead creatures to avoid being used by the formation.
After they failed, they once again caused trouble to the world."
System prompt: The request of the great wizard, the task level is B, the content is to kill all the undead creatures in the tower, and the completion time is unlimited.
The old man babbled for a long time and finally explained the task requirements. Ma Yingjie didn't bother to pay attention to the cliche things he said. What he cared about was whether he could get good rewards. If you let him be a volunteer, I'm sorry, even if you say
The mountains and rivers are upside down, the sun and the moon have no light, I'm sorry I don't have time.
"Do you have anything else to explain?" Ma Yingjie decided to get to the bottom of it. After all, he had wasted so much time with old man Ferandis, so it was time for him to do so.
"You must pay special attention to the fact that there is a strongest monster on each level. Only by defeating him and getting his head can you enter the next level." Old man Ferrandis said, if you don't ask, will he not?
I said it, damn guy, luckily Ma Yingjie said something more.
"Is there more?" Ma Yingjie looked at the old man worriedly. He hadn't finished speaking just now, so he might have some reservations this time.
"And you should pay attention to your health and take good care of yourself. I heard that drinking more honey water can improve your beauty. If you are interested, you can try it."
"Goodbye, old man." Ma Yingjie said respectfully to the old man, despising Ferandis in his heart. He even had beauty treatments. He was so beautiful that he had no flesh at all. He was just skinny at most.
