In the eyes of ordinary people, the Wizard's Tower has always been a mysterious place. Because it is always shrouded in thick fog, you can't find the way in if you accidentally walk in. Even if you can accidentally hit the tower, there is nothing that can be opened.
The door lets you in.
Young people are always yearning for mysterious and powerful wizards, and every day there are people wandering outside the wizard tower in Cold Wind City. They spread legends that represent good luck, and wait with high hopes for a blind wizard to recruit them as apprentices.
Many people spend their whole lives and spend all their wealth without even touching the threshold of arcana.
If he were an ordinary gangster, he would definitely turn around after taking the gold coins from a powerful man, and would not go to the Wizard's Tower to seek bad luck. But Lorraine was different. Zhou Qingfeng had seen what Rubio and Adrian had said about her, and this time he planned to
Test it again.
If it is really a good seedling, then focus on cultivating it. Although it is said that "a thousand-mile horse often exists, but a Bole does not always exist", the talent that can be created is actually extremely rare. How many teachers are eager to have a good student!
Lorraine gave the gold coins to his younger siblings and walked toward the wizard's tower alone. The square outside the tower was crowded with people. This was originally a commercial place. Wizards opened shops around the square to sell and buy magic materials and items.
When a dirty beggar appeared outside the square, people looked at her with disdain. The soldiers maintaining order shouted at her: "Get out of here, kid. This is not the place for you to come."
"I'm not here to beg. I'm sending a message to a big shot." Lorraine said weakly, "The recipient is Mr. Fabbro, the 'Chief Alchemist' of the Wizarding Group."
Maybe he felt that his momentum was too low, so the tomboy risked everything and puffed up his chest, stared at the spear-wielding soldier and shouted: "Don't look down on me, I bring an important message. I want to go to the Wizard's Tower."
The soldiers in the square were intimidated by Lorraine. This kind of thing would indeed happen. An insignificant person was sent to contact two big people who were not convenient to meet directly.
"You'd better have a true message." The spear-wielding soldier glared fiercely, "But I want to see how you get into the wizard's tower."
There is no one within ten meters outside the tower. It is like a forbidden boundary. People have a tacit understanding not to get too close. Real wizards will naturally walk in calmly. They will have secret marks on their bodies and can pass through the first door of the wizard tower.
Road protection.
From the outside, the outside of the tower was just a piece of grass. But as soon as she crossed the ten-meter boundary, the scenery in front of Lorraine turned into thick fog. She could no longer see the ground clearly, and even raising her hand would fall into the thick fog.
"Concentrate and move forward." Lorraine remembered Zhou Qingfeng's instructions and muttered in her mind: "The thick fog is just a trick to obscure the view. The road under your feet still exists, be careful not to go astray."
In the eyes of the people in the square, the thin little beggar stopped after crossing the boundary, as if he had lost his way. Every day, several people tried to break through, but they could not hold on for long in the fog, and some even cried.
Collapsed.
Lorraine stretched out her hand like a blind person and moved forward step by step. After walking ten meters, she found that she was still a little off, but she successfully reached the foot of the tower.
The gate of the Wizard's Tower is a solid wall with a pig's head carved on the wall. This is not a domestic pig, but a wild boar with thick bristles and bloody tusks.
When someone approached, the wild boar's eyes lit up, and he opened his mouth and shouted: "This is the Cold Wind City Arcane Association, the refuge of the mysterious lady, and the stronghold of the Magic Network. Anyone who has no interest in it, please turn around and leave."
"I..." Lorraine was so frightened by the boar's head that her teeth clashed. She tried her best to speak clearly, "I am a messenger, looking for Fabbro, the 'Chief Alchemist' of Cold Wind City."
Your Mightiness."
"Oh...?" The tone of the boar's head was very disbelieving, and he asked suspiciously: "Do you have any information that I can relay to you?"
If it were an ordinary messenger, this step would be enough. But Lorraine risked her life and ran over instead of stopping outside the tower. She gritted her teeth, shook her head and said: "I must personally tell Mr. Fabbro the information, outsiders cannot relay it.
"
Hmm..., the wild boar grunted, its eyes shone brightly, and seemed very angry.
Lorraine took two steps back, but said stubbornly: "Please tell Mr. Fabbro that there is important information that only he can accept."
After a stalemate for several seconds, the wild boar head on the solid wall gave in first. It snorted coldly: "Boy, you'd better not lie, otherwise I will throw you to the perverts of the necromancy system. Now take a step forward and come in."
"
Lorraine was already covered in sweat and breathed a sigh of relief. She took a step forward and approached the wild boar's head, only to find that she had passed through a solid wall and entered a hall decorated with stars.
The light and shadows are constantly changing, and the songs of praise to the goddess are humming gracefully. The energy of magic is rushing around, turning into shining silver-white flames, and the runes and spells are floating everywhere. Standing among them, people feel as if they are flying in the universe.
"Follow me, don't stand there stupidly." The voice came from the entrance of the hall. There was a young wizard apprentice staring at Lorraine. The voice in the wild boar's head was made by him.
The wizard apprentice who was guarding the door led the way and walked very quickly. Lorraine had not recovered from her surprise and had to trot to keep up. She stared curiously at the people coming and going in the hall and asked in a low voice: "What's this?"
What place is it?”
"The Hall of Stars is where the Mother of Magic is praised. Each spiral staircase here corresponds to a school of thought." The gatekeeper explained.
Different stairs correspond to different appearances. The most recognizable one is the necromancy system, which is completely made of bones. The prophecy system is translucent, appearing and disappearing at different angles. The plasticity system is simply made of fire, ice, acid, and lightning.
, toxin composition.
The other sects have their own characteristics, but the alchemy department is a bright yellow one, as if it were made of gold coins. The apprentice led Lorraine up the stairs and passed through a curtain, and the scene changed again.
Lorraine walked into a classroom. A dozen students were sitting cross-legged on the floor, writing something quickly with their hands. In front of the classroom, there was a middle-aged wizard sitting in front of a bubbling experimental table.
The intrusion of outsiders caused the middle-aged wizard to glare coldly, and the apprentice who led the way quickly apologized and said: "Dear Mr. Fabbro, I am very sorry to disturb you. There is a beggar who wants to summon you, but I can only tell you.
Me."
The skinny little Lorraine stood up, causing a burst of laughter in the classroom. The middle-aged wizard stood behind the experimental table and shouted coldly: "How many times have I told you not to disturb me during class. Even if the city lord comes, let him wait outside.
!”
These words were filled with great anger, and the classroom quickly became silent and as silent as a chill.
The apprentice who led the way quickly bowed and apologized, "Sorry, Sir, I'll come back later."
"Idiot, do you want to disturb me again later?" the middle-aged wizard shouted angrily.
The apprentice who led the way panicked. He was in a dilemma and gave Lorraine a hard push. "This is Mr. Fabbro, please tell me your message."
"But Mr. Fabbro is not the only one here." Lorraine remained stubborn. Before the message was spoken, she still took the initiative. "The person who asked me to take the message said that I could only tell the 'Chief Alchemist' of Cold Wind City himself."
The apprentice who led the way was angry, thinking to himself that he had already met the distinguished 'Chief Alchemist', wasn't it enough? He kept Fabro's face cold and silent, feeling that he should not have brought this beggar-like guy up here.
.
"Sorry, Your Excellency, maybe there is something wrong with the messenger's mind. I will get him away right away..." The apprentice who led the way grabbed Lorraine's arm and tried to drag her out.
Fabbro, who was behind the experimental table, coughed again, glared at Lorraine and asked, "What does the person who asked you to deliver the message look like?"
The atmosphere was wrong, and Lorraine was a little scared. She didn't dare to persist anymore, and said quickly: "The person who asked me to send the message wanted to ask Mr. Fabro, has your improvement of the 'mind disruptor' been successful?"
Fabbro's face fell in the blink of an eye.
Mind disruptor? This is a device secretly researched by the 'Chief Alchemist'. He has only publicly used it once. Only a handful of people know about this thing, not even his apprentices.
In a daze, Fabbro understood which disaster star was coming to find him?
