Chapter 364 The Struggle of the Black Mystery Tower
Hill looked up hesitantly.
Although the appearance of this tower is very similar to that of the Tower of Despair, Hill can always tell that it looks like the sun is setting over the mountains.
Hill meditated quietly, settling his emotions into the most stable state, and then continued to look up... It was not because he had heard too much about this magic tower that he had hallucinations.
This can only prove that the vast majority of people in the Black Mystery Tower have lost confidence in the future of the Magic Tower.
The sadness and decadence of human beings will be reflected in buildings, not to mention mages who are inherently stronger mentally.
Hill breathed a sigh of relief.
Finally he found the right place.
Although speaking of it, there is still plenty of time... no matter how useless Paradise Mountain is, it will not collapse in a few years, but Hill always feels that the situation inside the Tower of Thea must be very complicated, and he had better not waste time.
Alas~
He was still a little nervous.
After all, he had never done this kind of overly exciting adventurer action.
------------------
It took Hill a while to find the Hesenal family from which the young mage named Gilbert came.
It may be because they entered the Tower of Darkness relatively late, and Gilbert's development in the Magic Tower was indeed not very good, so although their family is also in the town, they are relatively...cannot be said to be on the edge.
, it can only be said that it is near the residence of a group of ordinary people who are not in a very good situation.
Not among them, but close at hand.
This is a very interesting location.
If nothing happened to Gilbert, their family would naturally be able to live well, but if he couldn't hold on... ha~ It should be well known that their family is rich, right?
After all, he is a famous apprentice bought back by the Tower of Mystery.
If it were the other magic towers that were fine, but the Black Mystery Tower was on the verge of collapse, no one knew when a riot would break out.
Hill suddenly felt that his idea was really possible.
Therefore, the most important thing for him now is to observe Heisennar for a while, remember the appearance of these people, and it is best to get some news about Gilbert from their words.
Heisennar is a big family.
But apart from the patriarch, the ones with obviously different identities should be Gilbert's family. Hill could confirm this from the words of some people.
Well, judging by his age... the male mage who was with Jerry was already several dozen years old. There is absolutely no way that someone of his age could be Gilbert's father.
He couldn't even be his brother.
Even if a mortal lives a long life, it is impossible to maintain youth for that long, especially in a place like this where there is no way to maintain it.
People who don't eat well will naturally have their life span shortened and age faster.
Therefore, this guy is either his younger brother who was born after he entered the Magic Tower, or he is one of his nephews.
I guess this is the reason why their family is not even the patriarch... huh?
Hill suddenly realized that if Gilbert supported it, even if his father died early, his brother would naturally get the position of patriarch.
Nobles are always real creatures.
But Hill still remembers what the male mage said.
Gilbert almost risked his life for his family. How could such a person not care about his remaining family members at all just because his parents left.
People who value emotions will never give up their family easily.
No matter what they think in their hearts, the nobles whose families rely on Gilbert will show great respect for each other and his family.
Unless they find a new one to rely on.
But judging from where they live, not yet.
Moreover, these members of the Gilbert family did not show any dissatisfaction. When the patriarch sought their opinions out of respect, they basically followed the crowd.
Gilbert was afraid that he was in trouble, and even knew that his future was not good from the beginning, so he never tried to seize the leadership of the family.
I just hope to save my family's lives and prevent them from becoming the main targets of attacks.
When Hill heard the male mage talking about the child, he felt that he was actually quite smart. If he hadn't been forced to do anything, Gilbert would probably be able to lead the family to a better place.
Moreover, this child is quite stable. His last crazy sprint would have shaken and cracked the spiritual sea of an ordinary person.
Black Mystery Tower is not stupid either. Before paying a large sum of money to invite him, he must have made sure that he had no fundamental problems.
As for other things... I guess there is one more thing. This child's defensive spells must have his own style.
In a sense, defense mages still have a way of dealing with the laws of gravity.
If the Tower of Black Mystery is not very good at spells such as meteorites falling from the sky... After all, the Gilbert family has not been killed by the Tower of Theia yet, which proves that anyone can learn the spells they have.
Hill touched the defensive magic book on his waist and continued to listen carefully to the chats of those above.
One thing that makes Hill feel hopeful about this world is that the earth's rejection and disgust of the humans in him will even slowly decompose the spells in his body.
Therefore, any isolation array cannot exist underground for a long time.
This has also resulted in the current situation. Unless it is near a magic tower with a big business, there is no underground magic circle at all elsewhere.
This is also the reason why there are no magic materials in this world... Everything related to the earth can only resist magic but not guide it.
This is probably why Asmodeus firmly refuses to allow professions such as knights to appear in this world.
Knights are a profession in which it is easy to form their own unique beliefs, but mages, because of their high IQ and self-preservation nature, will not easily become enemies of the world.
Anyway, we just need to eradicate all the knights at the beginning... Knights are more dependent on their own world than mages.
When the meat disappears and the normal magical plants die, the knights and even the swordsmen will naturally disappear and never appear again.
How can someone who can’t even eat enough exercise exercise?
But as long as they appear, relying on the world's aversion to magic, they will definitely have the upper hand... They don't need any meteorites to fall from the sky, their weapons and equipment can be smashed out by picking up some similar stones and metals.
If Hill hadn't been a son of the earth himself, other mages would have been suffocated to death by dissipating all their magic power if they had stayed underground for so long.
Therefore, mages in this world are not very careful about ears coming from the ground.
"Ulrich, why has there been no news from Master Gilbert in the past two months?
Have you contacted him recently?" Patriarch Heisennar asked the people around him in as calm a tone as possible, "I'm really worried. The last time I saw him..."
"Two days ago, Uncle Gilbert told me that the Black Mystery Tower has now fully relaxed the bottom line for recruiting apprentices... As long as you can become an intermediate apprentice before the age of 16, you can pay a training fee to enter the Black Mystery Tower.
.
Uncle Gilbert didn't want to be sent out to retrieve people, so he planned to meditate in seclusion.
Didn't he buy a bottle of alchemical potion last time?
I just took this opportunity to eat it to see if I could stabilize my mental state and hit level 12..."
"What?" Patriarch Heisennar was not happy, but a little frightened, "How dare he take that kind of medicine?
Isn't that gambling on your life?
Who knew that thing was really made of meteorite material?
What if...it's already like this..."
"This is not the first time that uncle has gambled his life!" Ulrich raised his voice, "What can he do?
If the mage is less than level 12 and the aging period is imminent, then there is no hope!
The family, the family only has two apprentices who can afford it!"
"What can be done about this?" Patriarch Heisennar said with a wry smile, "If our family is really talented, how could we be let go?
Gilbert back then was really a gift to our family on the verge of death."
"Forget it..." Ulrich was a little decadent, "Our family can't find any mid-level ones.
Uncle Gilbert asked me to bring the two apprentices to him after revealing the news in the Black Mystery Tower.
If you have any hope of becoming a mage, just pay the money.
It would be better for our family to spend our family’s money early.”
"I understand." Patriarch Heisennar said somewhat dullly... Of course he could hear the uneasiness and frustration in these words.
Is the Heisennar family really going to end?
He stood up abruptly: "I'm going to see those two little guys!"
Hill followed him and found the two children who were obviously around 15 years old and no longer very motivated...a boy and a girl.
During this time in Hill, it was rare to see such healthy children, including among the noble families in the Tower of Despair.
It seems that the Heisenauer family has indeed reached the point of seeking medical treatment in a hurry.
"Russell, Carpenter! What are you doing?" Chief Hesenal said somewhat unhappily, "Even if you can't enter the Magic Tower, won't you still be able to work in the town government in the future?
If you are still so careless when we get there, I will collect your bodies within two days!"
"Patriarch!" The two children who were in a daze stood up hurriedly.
"We are just a little sad." Russell quickly explained, "I will be 16 soon, and there is still so much difference between the two of us."
"You don't need to worry about this." Patriarch Heinalson said with a frown, "Take care of yourself, Ulrich will take you to see Master Gilbert in a few days, remember, behave better!
