Elizabeth asked from the side: "Isn't this magic... cast directly here? Is there still a place for it?"
Wang: "Ordinary magic does continue to take effect within a range after it is cast, and does not require any constant objects. But these will become invalid after a period of time. For a permanent effect like this, it must be constant on a certain item or other
What's above? And this spell is so powerful that the items used to stabilize it cannot be smaller."
Elizabeth thought for a while and pointed to the white wall in the distance: "Constant is on the wall?"
Wang: "It's possible. Are there anything that looks like magic runes on the white wall? It's very complicated for a spell of this scale to be constant, and it must be assisted by runes. It may even require a large number of runes."
Rosalie looked at each other and Oscar, who had followed but was too scared to speak because of the violent unfolding, then replied: "No. The most famous thing about the white wall is that there are no cracks in the bricks at all, let alone words.
"
Wang: "Then it's not a white wall."
At this time, Emperor Bernard hit the wall of the tower again, and once again his nosebleed violently.
The king stopped and looked at the emperor suspiciously: "Shouldn't it be?"
At this time, Elf Nini, who had been listening carefully, spoke up: "Teacher, I also find it very strange. If this spell can be seen through so easily, it is impossible that there have been no rumors that it is an illusion for so many years."
Wang scratched the back of his head: "If you think about it carefully, it is true. Nini, will you try it?"
Nini: "In my eyes, this tower no longer exists. Just now I just saw His Majesty bumping into the air in a funny way."
The king turned to look at Bernard, and after meeting their eyes, the emperor spoke: "If Master Mel hadn't also successfully entered, I would have doubted that you are a charlatan. But, don't you think it's strange? I trust Mel so much.
Master, after seeing him go in, I should have already believed him!"
Wang: "This is very strange. Let's limit the variables and increase the number of experiments. Uh, Your Majesty, I hope you - you will assist me."
Bernal: "You asked for my help, so you changed to the honorific title? Did you know that you have been making fun of the majesty of the royal family since the first time you met me? You actually let a werewolf ride in on your neck, Munro
The last person in Via who could ride a horse into the audience hall was the regent Duke Taiwen who died of illness 77 years ago."
Wang was stunned for a moment, and it seemed that he really didn't think about it: "Uh, I'm sorry?"
Rosalie: "When you say you're sorry now, it seems like you're mocking me."
"Is that so?" Wang was surprised, "Satire is such a profound knowledge."
Elizabeth: "I am sorry for the rudeness of the members of the mission, Your Majesty."
Bernal: "Since it is the apology from the sister of the Emperor of Kuosania, I accept it. Tell me, Master, what do you want me to do?"
Wang: "I need you to select twenty people from your guard, from various places in Monrovia, and let them try to see if they can pass through the wall. In addition, Rosalie, and, uh, Prince Oscar, you two will also go
Give it a try.”
Rosalie: "Okay, I'll give it a try."
After saying that, she walked towards the tower solemnly with dignified steps, and walked towards the wall with her eyes open like Elizabeth just now. As a result, her secondary sexual characteristics were blurred on it.
Wang leaned over and studied it carefully for a few seconds, then turned and asked Elizabeth: "Why does she feel a little hard?"
Elizabeth: "She should be wearing whalebone breast pads. Of course they will be a bit hard."
Rosalie: "Are you studying the problem? I thought you were studying the wall!"
Wang looked innocent: "I can't see the wall. I can only judge the location of the wall through the deformation of your secondary sexual characteristics."
Just when Rosalie was about to complain, Wang said again: "Close your eyes and try again."
She sighed, pulled away, closed her eyes, and moved closer.
Wang: "This is strange. Your Majesty, have you selected the twenty volunteers? They should be posted on the wall in the way I asked, with angles and so on. Let's start after selecting the people."
Twenty minutes later, Wang touched his chin: "It's strange, how could this happen?"
He had just asked Elizabeth and Rosalie to walk side by side towards the wall, but Elizabeth went in and Rosalie was stuck on the wall.
Wang: "It stands to reason that if someone next to you directly enters the wall, people should have very strong doubts about whether there is a wall here."
Nini: "Teacher, is this not an illusion?"
Wang: "But I rely on studying this phantom killer who has mastered the fourth ring - wait a minute, I won't be sure until tomorrow whether I have mastered this fourth ring spell, so... Is it true that I made a mistake? But you have all seen through it.
What’s the essence of this tower?”
Nini: "Is it because we are your traveling companions? We are members of the rescue team?"
"That makes sense," Wang nodded, then pointed at Rosalie, "I will now appoint you as the laundress of the Salvation Team! Come on, you try again."
Rosalie looked helpless, but still walked towards the tower.
She put it on again.
Wang: "What is the principle of this? I have obviously seen through this spell like my teacher?"
Nini: "Is it because, teacher, you didn't really understand the essence of this spell, so you didn't get the gift of fate?"
Wang: "It makes sense."
Elizabeth: "Did you deliberately ask Nini to call you teacher? Wasn't it like this before?"
Nini: "Ah, I'm used to this name. Originally, my idea was that I would only call him teacher when he was teaching me. Does this title make you unhappy?"
"No, no." Elizabeth shook her head repeatedly.
Bernal: "So do you still want to continue testing? You don't want me to call the whole city over and hit the tower when there is a cloud of war, right?"
Wang: "No, obviously this spell has rules that I haven't been able to reveal yet. I have already initially discovered this rule. People who have close contact with me should be able to see through this cognitive modification. Rosalie can't see through it. It should be
Because she and I don't have a close connection."
Nini: "Teacher, how to define this close connection?"
Wang: "You have all gone on adventures with me. Even Nini, the newest addition, also lived and died together in the adventure of Fetal Movement Hall. Of course, this statement is not accurate. I will be resurrected by my teacher, and you will have to...
I found a way to resurrect myself.
"If you don't care about this detail, we are comrades who live and die together. Do you remember what my teacher said, this tower is in my destiny, and your destiny is also closely related to my destiny."
Rosalie: "But didn't you accept my destiny as a laundress? Is it because I'm not high enough?"
King: "You will know after you give it a try. Your Majesty, please send someone to notify the Star Chaser in the port and send ten trustworthy crew members here. Immediately."
Bernal: "It's a long way from here to the port. I'll let the griffon knights pick it up. Send an order to dispatch ten griffin knights to the port to find the Star Chaser and ask them to send ten trustworthy sailors."
After a while, ten griffons landed.
Xiaobai looked at the griffin and let out a cry of surprise: "Oh oh oh oh, great! I want to change into this! Let me ride!"
Wang: "You can ask Your Majesty to visit the griffin breeding garden and learn more about their ecology."
Xiaobai: "Can I eat a gryphon? I'll understand if I eat one."
Bernal: "At this time, the gryphon is an important combat force. We cannot let it become fodder for werewolves."
Wang: "It was the dissection process before eating that allowed him to understand the physiology of the griffin. It would be okay to ask the breeder to explain it."
Xiaobai: "No, I have to kill and eat myself to find out."
King: "Then if there are gryphons killed in the battle, you can kill and eat them yourself."
Xiaobai was happy: "Okay!"
The gryphon knights all frowned.
A cavalry captain said: "Griffins that die on the battlefield are generally recovered and buried."
Bernal: "Looking at your age, you probably haven't experienced the last orc invasion thirty years ago, right? You won't have the chance to bury the griffins, they will become the orcs' meal."
Xiaobai: "Then I'll go have a meal."
Bernal was silent for a few seconds and reminded: "They are green orcs."
Xiaobai: "I am a furry werewolf. Okay, most of my skin is fair and white, but I am indeed a werewolf. Is it a distant relative of an orc?"
Wang: "Your distant family is really far away. It's almost the end of the world."
Bernal shook his head: "Whatever you want, the sailors from the Star Chaser have arrived, can we start the experiment?"
Wang nodded.
In the next few minutes, he explained the ins and outs, and at the same time asked Elizabeth to perform the "wall penetration trick" again, and then let the sailors start the collision.
The results came out in five seconds.
The Star Chaser's sailors could not see through this spell.
Bernal frowned: "Do you know? When word spreads about what happened today - I guess the grand dukes in the capital already know about it - they will say that Mel colluded with you and put on a show.
"Of course I personally trust my Archmage, but the Dukes also have eighth-level spellcasters around them. These spellcasters will probably take a look for themselves and say with certainty that the tower is real.
"With the current military situation, there must be someone who wants to make suggestions to remove Master Mel who is colluding with you."
Wang: "You are right, so I have decided to remove this magic."
He turned around and asked Rosalie: "Where are there any huge, ancient buildings around that are covered with words and patterns?"
Before Rosalie opened her mouth, Nini spoke up: "Teacher, didn't you just meet one when you came here?"
Wang raised his eyebrows: "Oh, yes, that bridge! It's really huge, and it's full of patterns and characters from the ancient Cyclops Empire. Come on, let's go to that bridge and have a look."
Elizabeth: "Do I need to call Flint?"
King: "No need, we have His Majesty's escorts and the gryphon knights in the sky. Even if the wolf cavalry comes, there is no need for us to fight. But Marika, is she still around?"
Elizabeth: "I don't know, Marika should still be there!"
The drow emerged from the shadows of the walls surrounding the tower: "Your Highness, are you looking for me?"
"We are going back to the bridge, will you come?"
Marika: "The mage is right, the emperor has so many guards, it is not our turn to fight. In fact, I have been buying the supplies we need in the city these days. If you follow the emperor of Monrovia out, I will continue
Go and do this."
Wang: “What was the result of the acquisition?”
The drow sighed: "You can't buy resurrection scrolls at all, and other magic scrolls are basically out of stock. After all, now that the war is going on, both the knights and the various dukes themselves are buying these scrolls. The market price of resurrection scrolls has already reached a high price.
A piece of 150,000 gold coins is still priceless, after all, many priests don’t know how to copy scrolls.”
Copying scrolls requires professional skills, and priests may not necessarily know it - priests who know it may not have six rings.
Wang: "Just try your best. Thank you for your hard work."
As he said that, he turned to Bernal: "We can set off. The target is the long bridge."
**
When the sun began to set in the west, the mighty cavalry and griffon knights arrived in front of the fortress gate next to the long bridge.
Wang jumped off Xiaobai and walked onto the long bridge. His two apprentices hurriedly followed.
Nini's steps are elegant and beautiful, and she is worthy of being an elf.
Apprentice Mel is a little crazy, and he acts like a crazy old man.
The emperor stopped directly at the end of the bridge, probably because he did not want to overly influence the king's study of the bridge. He stopped, and the mighty guards naturally stopped as well.
Elizabeth hurriedly said: "Don't stop, you must protect him!"
Bernal: "The Griffin Knight will protect him, don't worry. In such an open place on the bridge, any enemy is afraid of the Griffin Knight."
Elizabeth said "Oh", dismounted and trotted to catch up.
Rosalie didn't move, and her father turned to look at her sternly.
The Fourth Princess had no choice but to dismount and follow.
Wang walked to the middle of the bridge and stopped, looking down at the patterns on the ground.
"Nini," he asked, "let me test you, what is the pattern on the ground?"
Nini looked down at the ground and immediately said: "Euclidean geometry? Teacher, you taught it."
"Yes." Wang smiled, "It shows that you are studying very seriously. Now I want to tell you a new knowledge. Euclid is a borrowed word. All naturally occurring Euclid in the multiverse originates from
From the same mother plane, they are different branches of that mother plane."
Nini frowned: "Teacher, you mean... this is the masterpiece of the planeswalker?"
Wang immediately clapped his hands: "Smart! People who don't understand Euclidean geometry will only think that it is a very beautiful pattern when they see this picture. We passed under this bridge a few days ago. I looked up at the bridge arch and didn't realize that the bridge
The arch is a typical Lobachevsky surface, which is also a borrowed word.”
Nini: "Teacher, you haven't talked about this yet."
"This is because the first-level spells do not yet require this level of knowledge. All in all, this bridge may have been built by the Cyclops Empire under the guidance of the Planeswalker, or it may be that the Grand Arcanist of the Cyclops Empire who directed the construction of this bridge was himself
It is not uncommon for planeswalkers to return home in glory.
"Now the pattern under our feet is the center point of the entire structure."
Mel looked at the patterns on the ground in confusion, obviously not following the conversation at all.
Here, Wang was still doing his own thing. He held Nini's shoulders with both hands, "positioned" her to a certain point, and pointed to the tower in the distance: "I can't see with my eyesight. Please tell me, can I
See the pedestal that the dwarves built on the tower?"
They can't see the tower, only the base.
Nini: "Yes, the distance is about..."
"There is no need to report the distance, so standing at this point, you can clearly see the base of the tower without any obstruction, right?"
"Yes, the tip of the tallest building in the city that I have seen cannot block the base. Standing on this bridge, you can completely see the base."
Wang: "This is why the bridge is built so high! Magic does not necessarily require direct visual inspection, but it does require the addition of a series of precise spatial positioning statements."
Master Mel, who was looking at the picture below his feet, suddenly raised his head: "Spatial positioning!"
Wang: "Yes, it will make the spell extremely complicated. So it is better to build a super-tall building to ensure direct sight."
Elizabeth obviously didn't understand the whole thing, but she wanted to participate in the conversation, so she asked: "So you already have a solution to this?"
"Me? No, no, how could I do it. But you see, since the installer took great pains to maintain direct line of sight, then we will block it."
As he spoke, Wang stood behind Nini and gently pushed the back of her ear with his hand, turning her ear completely horizontally and turning it into a measuring tool.
Nini: "Teacher, you don't have to measure it yourself, you can let me tell you."
Wang: "I measured it. It needs a strip of cloth about one meter wide. As for the length, to be on the safe side, I might as well block the entire tower."
Elizabeth: "What are you going to do?"
Wang: "Isn't there a gryphon knight here? I want to make a piece of cloth that is long and wide enough for the gryphon knight to hang up and perfectly cover the tower."
Rosalie: "The Gryphon Knight cannot hover perfectly, so let the Gryphon Knight fly towards or from the tower. And because the Gryphon Knight cannot walk perfectly in a straight line, it will definitely yaw, so the cloth needs to be larger.
"
The king snapped his fingers: "The princess is right, she is worthy of being the princess of a country with gryphon knights."
"She's just a laundress. I'll arrange the cloth. I'll have to work very late. How about we rest in the fortress tower next to it and wait for the cloth to be finished?"
Wang: "Okay!"
**
By the time the cloth was completed and transported to the tower by the gryphon knights, it was already late at night.
But Bernal ordered the experiments to begin immediately.
The cloth Rosalie rushed to make was too heavy, and when it was transported, fifteen gryphons hung it on ropes.
Monrovia's mages had to cast the Bull Power spell on all griffons.
After the cloth was fully unfolded, the griffons suddenly discovered that such a large cloth would be blown away by the wind in the air. The emperor's mages had to use wind-making techniques to artificially counteract the natural wind.
After struggling for a long time, everything was ready, and the giant curtain was accurately blocked between the geometric point that Wang was looking for and the base of the tower.
But nothing happened.
Bernal: "Is this a failure? Damn it, I'm actually doing this at this time!"
Wang: "Wait a minute!"
He pushed Nini and used the elf's ears as a measuring device. He measured as he walked and found the midpoint between the fortress tower and the base of the tower in the distance.
Wang: "If it's not there, then it should be here. Make sure it's high enough to completely block the fortress tower."
The fortress tower is only high in foundation and not very high in itself, which is more than enough for this huge rush-made curtain.
Then everyone made great efforts. After the mages used the power of the bull twice, the curtain was finally moved between the fortress tower and the high tower.
Wang stood at the same spot, with one hand on Nini's shoulder, as if holding a prop, and the other hand holding Rosalie's arm.
"Is the tower still there?" he asked.
Rosalie: "He's still here, fine."
Wang: "This is strange. It should be blocked? Is there something missing?"
At this moment, a very strong wind blew, which suddenly overshadowed the wind-making techniques used by the mages to counteract the natural wind.
The giant screen was blown off course.
Wang: "What happened? Recover quickly...what's wrong with you?"
The stunned Rosalie pointed to the tall tower in the distance: "It...is gone!"
Wang suddenly realized: "I understand! We aimed at the base and couldn't see the tower! So we missed it!"
Soon enough, a huge torrent of magical energy spurted out from the center of the pattern under the three people's feet, sending the three people flying into the sky.
