Chapter 71 [Insist on using the power of the mobile phone and change the text to make do with it]
Sitting on the back of the Sphinx, Karl and the others approached very quickly.
It didn't take much time before the castle described by Eileen appeared in their field of vision.
This is a fortress composed of a large number of spiers, with a complete circle of towering walls surrounding the outside, and a large number of watchtowers scattered on it. This is obviously a well-managed fortress.
"Mr. Captain, this should be a standard academic mage. According to the previous lady, a mage with such a long life may not be easy to deal with."
"So any good ideas?"
Since direct use of force was not recommended, Karl directly asked if there was any other way. To be honest, he felt that he was a pacifist and it would be better not to take action if possible.
"Then we can visit this mage more formally. With me as a mage, the other party's attitude should not be too harsh."
"Sphinx, when we get to the front, we will land and then formally visit at the gate."
"yes."
In response to Karl's request, the Sphinx immediately began to lower its position.
About a hundred meters in front of the castle, the group of them landed firmly on the ground, and then the Sphinx turned back into a little girl.
After confirming that there was nothing wrong with their appearance, the group began to approach the main entrance of the castle.
Under such close observation, various details of this castle also appeared in front of Karl and the others.
Except for the main white building, the upper parts of these buildings all have blue conical roofs. Looking at the image here, Karl suddenly felt that he had seen such a building before.
But when I think about it carefully, I can't remember it.
Maybe this is something that will appear in later generations, but I just can't remember it now.
"Karl, let me knock on the door!"
Just when Karl was trying to remember, Naiya took the initiative and asked to be the first to visit the mage.
No matter how you think about it, Naiya won’t be able to cause any big problems like this, right?
Thinking this, Karl nodded and agreed to the evil god's request.
"Go ahead, there's no need to cause trouble this time."
"We are here to visit the owner here with good intentions."
"Okay."
After replying to Karl, Naia immediately shouted at the gate below the castle and ran away.
The evil god was also very satisfied that he could find something to do for himself now.
As a result, after she ran out only fifty meters, a piece of ground that was originally good suddenly swelled up after Naia stepped on it, and a violent explosion occurred in an instant, sending the cheerful evil god directly into the sky.
"Alderna!"
Seeing that Naiya was about to be dismembered on the spot, Kolyakin immediately chanted his own spell loudly.
Immediately afterwards, a position appeared in front of him, catching all Naia's body parts that were about to fly out, and then dragged them back to Karl.
Looking at the shocked Naia who was trying hard to repair her body, Karl turned to look at the old mage in the team.
"Mr. Kolyakin, this is..."
Judging from the power of the explosion when I saw it just now, even if it hits my own body head-on, it may not end well.
In other words, Naia, who is not afraid of death, can use mine detection tools to help them eliminate this danger. If they walk over unprepared, their combat effectiveness may be seriously compromised.
Is this the academy mage the old mage calls?
Isn't it too scary?
"This is my dereliction of duty."
Faced with Karl's question, Kolyakin admitted his dereliction of duty without hesitation. After all, they chose to visit officially at his suggestion. He should indeed be responsible for such an unexpected situation.
ah.
"This is an item called an arcane mine. It is a powerful trap that a mage would set up to protect his own mage tower. I never expected that the opponent would actually bury such a terrifying thing under the castle gate."
While explaining to Karl, Kolyakin had already taken out the magic book from before.
The mobile phone spread out in the hands of the old mage automatically started turning pages under the influence of an unknown force, and soon stopped on a page with both pictures and text.
"Since it was a mistake I made, please allow me to make some amends for this matter."
Boom!
Just when the old mage's spell was about to be activated, the castle door in front of them suddenly opened.
As the gate in the form of a suspension bridge fell to the ground, the guys in the castle slowly walked out.
"Guests from the outside world who have come here, please allow me to apologize for the accident on behalf of my master and show our sincerity. The master hopes that you can enter the castle to accept his hospitality."
What appeared in front of Carl and the others was a blue and slightly transparent elf with no legs underneath its body. This thing looked very much like the magic lamp elf that Carl had seen before.
But at this moment, Karl didn't pay too much attention to the other person's appearance, because this guy wearing mainly red clothes looked so familiar, and something that was waiting to be revealed in his memory seemed to be coming out.
"Mr. Captain?"
The silent Karl obviously made the other people a little undecided. They didn't know what the team leader's attitude was.
In this case, Iida behind him took the initiative to pat Karl on the shoulder.
"What should we do now?"
"ah!"
Iida immediately woke Karl up from his thoughts, looked at the elves in the distance who were still waiting for a reply, and then looked at his companions around him.
Only then did he continue: "Go in, let's go in."
"Naiya is fine anyway, this is just a misunderstanding."
"It's obviously very troublesome..."
Complaining about Karl in a low voice, Naiya still didn't do anything on his face. They just came out to greet their blue elf together with the cultivators, and then entered the castle where they didn't know the details.
Behind the towering walls of the castle, several iron men with metal structures are controlling the opening and closing of the castle gate, and behind it is a large open space growing with various plants, among which there are many goblins with ugly faces and wearing blue or red robes.
Working among them, taking care of these delicate plants with great care.
After passing here, in front of the main building of the castle, two black gargoyles guarded both sides of the door, checking all the creatures passing by the door until the blue elf gave an instruction that Carl had never heard before.
The door behind the gargoyle opened for them.
Walking here, this series of scenes has completely activated Karl's memory.
Whether it is the shape of the castle, the creatures here, or the mines outside, they are all combined with a certain game in Carl's mind!
This is definitely the famous game he once played!
