Chapter 212: Order in the Mage Fort
The silver leaf, depicted with the "Destiny" motif, was soon hung on the wall of the Mage's Castle Hall. Every resident of Mage's Fort who passes by from here can't help but look twice.
Because everyone knows that Given's offer of a near-sky-high bounty for the secrets behind these patterns. Powerful crystal disks, bags of magical items...... All it takes is a flash of thought to get it.
If you can solve the mystery of this Excalibur on the wall, then everything belongs to you.
The desire to regain power has led countless mages to take the plunge, and even between several small groups, an informal fierce competition has begun.
There is one person who has deep apprehension about this competition. The current manager of the Mage Castle, Mage Servitz, said to Givens worriedly, "Such a crazy competition, if you don't get it right, will ruin the order of the Mage Castle. ”
Givens could see the longing in the eyes of those creatures, and knew the evil that might be hidden behind this*. But in this fearless world of life and death, only in this way can the secret of "fate" be unearthed faster.
As a summoned beast, Givens could wait 10,000 years or more for this secret, but Adelia couldn't wait that long, and the conspiracy against her might even appear tomorrow.
Now, timing is everything.
But this is the fastest way, and if anyone violates the precepts, punish them according to the law. Givens replied.
Not only is the "Destiny" pattern hanging on the wall, but the laws of the Mage Fort are also engraved on the inner walls of the castle, and anyone who attacks their companions, steals, or frames them will be stripped of their existing wealth and crystal disks, and then mercilessly thrown into the wilderness away from the Mage Castle.
"I hope it works. ”
Seeing that Given's attitude was very resolute, Givenz didn't argue, just shrugged his shoulders, and then spread out the crystal disk pattern record slate that had just been sorted out in front of Given.
"This is a crystal disk pattern sorted out from more than 30 known crystal disk design drawings, and it is temporarily divided into these categories. ”
As Servitz patiently introduced, the mages tentatively deduced patterns that represented different functions such as "birth", "growth", "circulation", and "change", and summarized them in detail.
Contrary to what Jiwen had originally envisioned, the classification of the mages was not exactly the same as that of the elven craftsmen, which resulted in more than a dozen combinations of crystal plate patterns for each function, and the crystals and patterns used in each method were different. This adds a lot of difficulty to cracking the mystery of the entire crystal disk.
But if the research is just a guess, there is no point in verifying the correctness of the conjecture by trying it yourself.
After looking at the slates, Givens pulled out his tools from the storage ring.
"Let's give it a try. ”
Jiwen tried to use these patterns, combined with the design principles of the crystal disk, to complete a simple crystal disk completely designed by himself, but after trying it a few times, he found that it was not easy. The only successful work was a crystal disc that seemed to be useless.
Givens continued the "birth" and "growth" patterns from the Ice Arrow Crystal Disk, then added the "Cycle" pattern from another crystal disk, and then incorporated the previously designed base of the Spell Torrent receiving part into the final work.
This crystal disk can respond to Jiwen's control, but its spell effect is pitifully weak, and it can only generate a stream of water out of thin air. The current is not turbulent and has no impact.
Givenn refers to this spell effect as "water-making", and its only use is probably only for irrigation or extinguishing fires.
Although this crystal disk is not powerful, Jiwen is still satisfied, at least it can prove that the mage's conjecture is feasible, if there is enough time to combine all these pattern combinations, then more useful evidence will be obtained to unravel the secret of the crystal disk.
If the secret of the crystal disk is solved, then it is not far from unlocking the secret of "fate".
Just as Given's next steps were being told, a commotion came from outside the hall, and then the door to the hall was squeezed open, and a group of residents of the mage castle poured in.
In the midst of this confusion, Givens grabbed a guy with a bloody face and asked, "What's going on?"
"Dragon...... Dragon...... There are dragons outside. ”
The hapless creature gasped, then pointed to the door of the hall in resentment.
An ominous premonition immediately flashed through Jiwen's mind, and the situation he feared most had happened. So Givens threw him away and rushed out.
Sure enough, just above the Mage Castle, two bipedal wyverns were swooping and flying up wantonly. From the walls, from the stairs, with sharp teeth and sharp claws, they tossed hapless creatures into the air and tore them apart.
These two evil creatures are having fun here, and the Mage Fort has become their hunting ground!
Seeing the tragedy in the air, the anger in Jiwen's heart gradually ignited.
Although those who died will eventually come back to life, the horrific memories will remain in the mind forever.
If the Mage Fort is no longer a safe place, then the people here will eventually disperse, and the research that has been so hard to begin will gradually cease.
This is something that Givens absolutely cannot tolerate.
Given's armor wasn't wearing today, but he pulled out his fate and the crystal disk dagger and ran to the top of the Mage's Castle, the top of the Tower. Givens can't fly, and the top of the tower is the best place to attack these green-skinned flying monsters.
As Gilvin continued to climb the stairs, the mages in the mage fort with crystal disks had already arrived in the square, and then tried to use the spells of crystal disks to fight the dragons. However, the disparity in spell strength allowed the wyverns to disperse the mage's resistance with only two acid sprays.
Given's silence was on his lips, staring at the two black shadows with their wings outstretched in the canopy, calculating their angles and distances from himself.
Faced with an opponent like the Wyvern who could easily escape, he had to make sure that he could kill them with one blow and leave them here. Only by learning enough lessons can these guys no longer have the guts to get one step closer to the Mage Fort.
"It's still too far. ”
Given's discovery that the two wyverns were moving too quickly and always kept high in the air, leaving Given's chances of never finding a shot.
If only something could drive the wyvern towards him, Givens thought angrily.
But at the same time, a reinforcement that Given's unanticipated broke into the skies of the mage's fort.
A flying carpet sprang down from the sky and swooped down on the dragons' backs. On that small flying carpet, the goblin Harvey wore his best magical equipment, cursed, and used aurora and fireball magic to drive away the two reptiles.
Harvey, the goblin, was in a bad mood today, and even from such a distance, Givens could hear Harvey's shrill screaming.
"You two wood-headed reptiles, get back to your filthy holes! Don't think about these ideas to beat these mages! They're mine! No one will want to get them out of here until they have worked to pay off the money and interest owed to me!"
In order to maintain the safety of his property, Harvey burst out with incredible power, and the rhythm of spell casting far exceeded the usual level.
The two wyverns were forced close to the ground by the dense magic shots, and their attention was drawn to Harvey, and they didn't notice an even more terrifying opponent on the spire of the mage castle, preparing to launch an ambush.
The two bipedal wyverns had a tacit understanding, and they tried to bring Harvey into the flanking attack, but at this moment, they all felt a strong spell flash suddenly burst in the air.
The wyverns turned their heads to see five fast-spinning spin balls approaching, and the nearest wyvern was caught off guard and caught in its wings. The flaming chain ball smashed into the dragon's chest by inertia.
The mortally wounded wyvern screamed and slammed into the ground, while his companion narrowly escaped the chain ball and struggled to climb up the way from the enemy who had not yet appeared.
But it was too late, and an impossibly large prismatic icicle shone with a cold light and approached the wyvern from behind.
The bipedal wyvern, who was fleeing for his life, felt a black shadow gradually envelop his body. It looked up, then froze. The black globular eyes are full of fear of the unknown.
Jiwen used his dagger to send out that ice arrow, and the size was far larger than all the ice arrows in the wyvern's battle memory
The icy ice crystals finally stuck to the wingtips of the wyvern, and soon the thin white ice spread along the wingtips to the rest of the wyvern's body. After a few seconds, the dragon's wings could no longer wave, and its body had turned into a sculpture of ice and snow, falling silently in a straight line.
In just a moment, the two wyverns touched the ground one after another, unable to move again.
