Click, click, click...

The sound of the gears and instruments engaging and moving clearly reached Weston's ears. He stared at the hemispheric dome above his head. The real starry sky was projected on the inner wall of the dome, rotating extremely slowly, fully displaying every ray of starlight.

.

No matter whether it is daytime or rainy outside, this celestial planetarium with a radius of nearly a hundred feet can ignore the sky weather and show the deep starry sky behind the obstacles, so that Sir Weston, who is obsessed with stargazing and astrology, can always stay alert.

Observation of the starry sky.

"Record, in the twelfth division of Ci Yayue District, there is a starlight enhancement phenomenon." Weston said, with a quill floating beside him while recording on the document. He held up his glasses as thick as the bottom of a wine bottle,

He said to himself: "Preliminary observation, it is the legendary spell level. Hmm... The Winter Wolf constellation responded at the same time. Did the battle take place on the immovable ice? Why is it there? Forget it, it has nothing to do with me, send the news

Give it to the Queen."

The documents and papers that fell off automatically flew out of the celestial sphere like a bird. Within half a minute, a round mirror floated into the planetarium and came to stand in front of Weston.

The light and shadow emerged in the round mirror, and the upper body of a woman appeared. She was sitting on a chair leisurely. The soft wide brim of the wizard's hat hung down, covering her face just right. Only her delicate chin and slender neck could be seen.

The curly hair is casually draped over the smooth shoulders and collarbones. Like a flower-filled dress, half of the pair of towering snow hills are exposed.

"Even through the communication mirror, I can still feel the 'charming aura' you exude." Weston adjusted his glasses, holding a pair of swollen eyeballs, his expression unchanged.

"Oh? It seems I need to pay more attention." said the woman on the other side of the mirror.

"What do you want from me?" Weston asked directly.

The female smile cannot be clearly seen in the mirror, but her smile can be detected: "Your observations have become more and more accurate. Just now we discovered that the Rainbow City of the Mysterious Eye suddenly launched a large-scale ritual spell, with more than a hundred buildings

The mage tower is in high-intensity operation."

Weston raised his head and looked at the horoscope, scanning his eyes: "The ritual spells in Rainbow City do not work within the city."

"That can only be the place you just reported to - the Fudo Ice Land." The woman in the mirror said: "Some time ago, there were violent changes in the polar wind belt outside the Fudo Ice Land, which may have attracted the attention of the Eye of Mystery.

So we sent the legendary mage to investigate."

"Who was sent?" Weston raised his hand and waved, and a miniature star map appeared in his hand.

"It should be Shadovan."

"There's a lot of commotion. Even this old bookworm has been invited out. With the combination of many magic towers in Rainbow City, more than a hundred high-ranking wizards have contributed spell slots to collaborate on legendary spells. This is after the battle at Ghost Bay.

, the largest mobilization of the Eye of Mystery. It seems that there is a very powerful existence in the Immovable Ice Land—could there really be a Frost Giant hiding there?" Weston guessed.

"Maybe. But the question is, with such a large-scale mobilization, how powerful an enemy are they facing? Why were they discovered by the Eye of Mystery at this time?" The woman said: "You must know that the Eye of Mystery is fully focused now.

, almost all of them are focused on breaking through the foggy sea and finding the legendary elven kingdom."

"Energy, they need a huge amount of energy that can reverse the climate of the vast ocean at one time." Weston said.

The woman nodded slightly: "The powerful existence of the Immovable Ice Land can cause drastic changes in the polar wind belt. If used properly, it is indeed possible to directly change the climate of the Sea of ​​Mist. But... I always feel that something is wrong."

"What's wrong?"

"Cause and effect." The woman said: "Is it the powerful existence of the Immovable Ice Land that causes the changes in the polar wind belts, or is it the other way around that the changes in the polar wind belts cause the awakening of this powerful existence? Even the two are not the same.

It must be cause and effect."

"Do you think there's another reason behind this?" Weston asked.

"The main reason is that the timing is too coincidental." The woman said: "The changes in the polar wind belt happened to be on the day when all the ancient giant ruins in the New World resonated."

"On the same day the stars dimmed, a star that originally had no star appeared in the central star area, and then disappeared." Weston said: "Do you think that fleeting star corresponds to the phenomenon that resonates with the ruins of ancient giants?

"

"If the powerful existence in the immovable ice is indeed a frost giant, or a creature related to it, then it may be that the resonance of the ancient giant ruins awakened that powerful existence. Maybe the change in the polar wind belt is just an accident.

Side effects." the woman said.

Weston did not refute: "With your ability to predict, you can often see the fate of the world. Although I still can't understand it, I have to admit that through astrology, the future I see is not as far away as yours."

"Then I would like to thank you for your compliment, Master Weston." The woman smiled.

"It's 'Sir Weston', Mephisitis." Weston raised his glasses. Facing the current actual controller of the Pentagram Tower, he did not have the same respect and awe as other high mages. He could even directly

Call the other person's name.

"Do you still remember the star map I gave you before?" Mephistis - or Missile Queen asked.

The star map in Weston's hand changed, showing a scene that was completely different from the real starry sky. He said with a solemn expression: "I even wonder if you dreamed about this star map in your dream, and then used it to test me.

It is impossible for ordinary people to construct such a complete starry sky system with their thinking consciousness."

Queen Missile raised her hand to support her chin and asked: "You have studied the stars more deeply. No one can support the meaning of the 'Pentagram' better than you. Can you explain it to me?"

Weston curled his lips, as if he was not used to the Missile Queen's praise, and said directly: "This star map is composed of five major star regions with the center and the four directions, and rotates to form a brand new space-time system. I guess it can connect

The Arcane Star Chart is like a super large magic circle."

"Tampering with the starry sky and turning it into a magic circle? This is very close to your celestial sphere matrix theory." Missile Queen said.

Weston looked at the star map in his hand and murmured: "It's different. What I pursue is to use the celestial sphere as an arcane matrix to master the knowledge of the starry sky. However, it is almost impossible to achieve it in practice. But you rely on my

Based on theoretical assumptions, the legendary spell 'Celestial Ball Missile' was successfully developed.

Compared with other legendary mages who have to rely on calculating space coordinates and opening portals for long-distance attacks, the 'Celestial Ball Missile' can ignore distance restrictions and directly guide the energy of the arcane star map to attack. Perhaps, you are the one closest to the starry sky.

."

"Compared to those who can tamper with the starry sky, approaching the starry sky may not be too clever." There was something different in the Missile Queen's tone.

"The tampering is only limited. At least the starry sky I observed here has not changed." Weston said: "And I think this star map may be just a part of the magic circle. Do you have any other information?

?”

"The information is in a small place called Chai Dui Town in the New World. If you want to come, you can come anytime." Missile Queen said.

Weston frowned: "I don't want to leave the Celestial Planetarium. There are all boring fights outside."

"Then I can't help you." Missile Queen waved her hand: "Okay, I have something else to do, so I'll ask you to keep watching."

After saying this, the light and shadow in the communication mirror disappeared. Weston seemed a little helpless and sighed in a low voice: "Humph, witch!"

…

"Ah, ah, ah - sneeze!"

Shu Rui sneezed, and a ball of light popped out and swirled around her head, making her look dizzy and drunk.

"Are you okay?" Sandoli raised the Tongxuan Divine Staff and directed the magical spring in front of her. Although it looked like a large cauldron placed on a pile of firewood, the strange liquid in the pot was boiling and bubbling.

"No, it's okay~ burp!" Shu Rui burped, "The potion is boiling, so we need to cast it while it's hot."

The young witch took out a simple doll tied with dry straw and threw it into the cauldron of potion. Suddenly, like sparks falling into a frying pan, a ball of fierce flames exploded, sometimes purple-red, sometimes blue, and colorful fireballs.

They jumped up one after another, and the top of the cauldron turned into little flashes of light, which was dizzying for everyone.

The magic potion in the cauldron was quickly dried up, leaving only half the pot of burnt black beans. Shu Rui stepped forward and grabbed a handful of beans, blowing gently, and the burnt black skin dispersed, revealing the apricot-yellow beans inside.

, the texture is pure and full.

"Success!" Shu Rui was very excited: "I have always wanted to make this kind of 'phantom seeds', but unfortunately I always failed. This time I finally completed it, and I made so many at once!"

"Congratulations then." At this time, Xuan Weizi's voice came from the distance. His clothes were fluttering, and he came across the sky, playing with a small wooden ball in his hand.

The young witch smiled shyly: "Isn't this thanks to your help? And it also counts as my thanks for your care during these days."

Sandori also smiled and replied: "Originally it's just a matter for Chai Dui Town, but I still want to trouble you."

Xuan Weizi came to the edge of the cauldron, picked up a bean, held it in his hand and felt it carefully. A simple and stable magic power was stored in it. He then used the magic power of the imperial weapon, and six mirror images similar to himself appeared in it.

around.

"good very good."

The batch of "Phantom Seeds" produced by Shu Rui were actually commissioned by Xuan Weizi to imitate "Throwing Beans into Soldiers" and were formed by the witch using the magic power of the Great Source.

Spreading beans and turning grass into soldiers, cutting grass into horses, are essentially using objects as guides and inhaling energy to transform thousands of troops. However, despite the scary names of these spells, they still belong to the category of "illusion" in essence.

The transformed soldiers and horses do not have complete entities and cannot be used to kill or injure people except to confuse the ears and eyes. Moreover, even if it is an illusion, the scale of thousands of troops and horses is definitely not something that ordinary practitioners can perform.

Xuan Weizi didn't expect to do this at first. It was purely during a conversation between Sanduoli and Shu Rui that she learned that their witches could make illusion items through magic power. There happened to be a magic spring near the witch cabin, and Shu Rui thought she could

help.

Not all spellcasters are good at fighting, and Xuan Weizi originally did not expect Shu Rui, a young witch, to be of any help in the coming war. However, after being reminded, Xuan Weizi remembered the saying of "sowing beans and making an army".

When it comes to illusions, just teach the secrets to Sandori and let her teach Shu Rui.

The result surprised Xuan Weizi. Shu Ruizhen did it. A "phantom seed" is equivalent to a "mirror shadow" effect. And because it is based on the magic power of Dayuan, it has supernatural effects and cannot be

It can be easily lifted and even difficult to see through.

"You are responsible for distributing these 'Phantom Seeds' to the combatants. The weather is going to get warmer soon. I estimate that Glanfaz will launch the first round of offensive during the sowing period." Xuan Weizi said to Sandori.

With a slight movement of Sandori's fingers, the beans in the cauldron automatically took off their burnt black shells and flew into a sack at her feet.

"Then I'll go get ready now." Sandori didn't waste any time. She picked up the sack and used a "Cloud Movement" to fly away. Now she serves as the head priest of the religious order and has responsibilities on her shoulders. She has to take care of many matters.

Being able to come here to assist Shu Rui is already very rare.

Watching Sandori go away, Xuan Weizi turned around and said to the young witch: "Miss Shu Rui, thank you for your help this time. The war is about to break out in the future, do you plan to stay near Chai Dui Town?"
