Chapter Twenty-Eight: The Stargazer
Coo-quack!
Half a day later, the carriage came to an inconspicuous hill, and a black shadow suddenly burst out of the grass beside it.
It was a monster that resembled a pheasant, but was two circles larger and had five eyes.
"Googa, it's Francis, you're back alive, Googa!"
The correct race of this "chicken" is the "multi-eyed owl", which is a medium magical beast, less aggressive than a low-level magical beast, but its intelligence is equivalent to that of a normal human, and it is very rare in itself.
"Don't say more, I've brought a very distinguished guest, you go and inform me. ”
Francis said something to the multi-eyed owl solemnly, and at the same time secretly conveyed a certain message with a small trick of mental fluctuations.
Then, he turned his head to Geer and said, "This hill in front of you is actually an illusion, and you can see the headquarters of the Silver Star Tower through here." However, there is a strong guard circle at the entrance and exit, and there are stronger defensive arrays around it, so please forgive me for not being able to bring you directly in. ”
"Just as soon as possible. ”
Gehr nodded and said lightly.
By this time, the multi-eyed owl had plunged headlong into the hill, and when it hit the wall, it was not hindered, but rippled like a wave of water, until it was completely submerged in it.
After a while, the mountain wall rippled again, and a white-haired old man wearing a white silver-trimmed robe walked out of it step by step. And the multi-eyed owl appeared on the old man's shoulder.
"Lord Stargazer!"
When Francis saw the old man, he immediately jumped out of the carriage, ran quickly to the white-haired old man, bowed his head and saluted.
"Francis, it seems that your curse has been removed, is it from the help of these guests?"
The old man not only had gray hair, but also had a long white beard, and when he spoke, he seemed to be calm and unhurried.
"Yes, my lord, it was the owner of this carriage who came to my rescue, and the only request they made was for me to lead the way to the Silver Star Tower, and to join us. ”
Francis's fears for nearly a month were all swept away when he saw the white-haired old man. He thought that no matter how powerful the owner of the carriage was, he would never be able to defeat the stargazer!
My lord is the honorific title of the inferior to the superior. Francis called the old man, and because the other party had helped him vigorously, he was able to afford the reincarnation scroll in the first place, and half of it was due to the old man's funding. Although the scroll had been burned by the Dark Clothes.
In fact, the white-haired old man was one of the elders of the Silver Star Tower. And stargazer is his title.
The title wizard, that is, the forbidden wizard, is the apex of the wizarding class!
We have a total of three forbidden wizards in the Silver Star Tower! We are not afraid of any enemy's provocation!" Francis thought.
Click!
Just as Francis was feeling warm in his heart, and his breathing was a little heavy, the door of the carriage finally opened.
A skeleton wrapped in a black cloak, with dazzling red gleaming in its eye sockets, and a beautiful and flawless little girl in a purple-haired dress, stepped out of it. Of course, there is also a ghost spirit in the image of a girl, which also floats out.
"You—You're the owner of the carriage?!"
Francis finally saw the man who came to his rescue, but he never expected it to be a skeleton.
"No, I was just summoned by her. ”
Zhou Chen plans to join the forces of the Silver Star Tower, so it is necessary to do some hiding. The image of his skeleton will definitely make people defensive, and changing to the image of a girl like life will save a lot of trouble.
"I'm a witch, and all three of them are my summoned companions. ”
He spoke at the right time, paused and added, "Well, I'm a few hundred years old now." ”
She wasn't lying. Zhou Chen is at least a few hundred years old, and she is naturally the same.
"Uh...... Thank you for your help. ”
Sure enough, Francis realized that he had made a mistake, and it turned out that the little girl in front of him was the main one, and her face suddenly looked much better. He finally had a chance to thank him in person.
"You want to join us in the Silver Star Tower?"
The stargazer next to him was still unfazed, stroked his long white beard and continued: "Your origin is unknown, and the three summons you are carrying can't even see through the reality of the truth, so it is difficult for us to accept you easily." ”
"But ......"
He changed his words again and said, "But the fact that you saved Francis shows that you are at least not from our hostile forces. Francis is the leader of the new generation of the Silver Star Tower, and it is great news that he can survive, and the condition for you to save him is to join the Silver Star Tower, and I can promise here. But we can only give you an ordinary mid-level position first, and we will also have a specific observation of you for a period of time. ”
The so-called specific observation is naturally used to judge whether it is sincere to join, and not to come with malicious intentions.
"Okay. ”
Life nodded.
"So, more on that later, let's go inside. ”
As the stargazer spoke, he turned around and waved his right hand slightly, and the hill gradually turned from real to virtual, and gradually disappeared.
Without the obstruction of the hill, a wide entrance and exit appeared, and through this entrance, it was a scene like an ordinary human city. The most eye-catching thing is the towering silver tower in the center, which is the symbol of the Silver Star Tower and the origin of the name of the power.
"Please!"
With a polite sound, the stargazer walked in first. Francis followed suit.
Zhou Chen's side didn't speak, but the red color in his eyes flashed, and he also walked towards the entrance with his life.
"You're in charge of the carriage. ”
Yuyi smiled at Gehr and continued to float with Zhou Chen's life.
Gehr didn't react and silently drove to follow.
......
More than four months later, on the seventh floor of the Silver Star Tower, where the top floor was located, an old man in a white robe with white hair and a white beard, and an old dwarf man in the same white robe sat together playing chess and drinking tea.
The former is naturally a stargazer, and the latter is the supreme ruler of the Silver Star Tower's forces.
"How's the investigation going?"
The two of them were playing chess, playing the most popular triple astrolabe among wizards, and the dwarf suddenly asked, seeing that he was about to lose.
"We have tried our best to investigate, but nothing has been found. ”
said that he had found nothing, but the stargazer still seemed to be calm, and kept in his hand, a chess piece went down, and the victory was established.
"So, really a lone wizard, sincerely join us?"
The dwarf looked at the chessboard, knowing that he had lost again, and pouted: "That witch is unabashedly looking for a way to refine the human body, and she has searched through the books on the first four floors, maybe her girl's body is very unstable, and she urgently needs to replace the body container, so she wants to find a force to join." ”
"Or maybe she's helping her summons find containers, like the ghost. According to the information provided by Francis, it is enough to tell that the witch is of the same level as us. Her three summons are at least at the level of the Grand Wizard. ”
The stargazer took a sip from his teacup and added.
"Anyway, it's okay to be reassured. In the previous battle with the Black Jiao Palace, we suffered too heavy losses, and we lost many backbones, and we really need to absorb some new members with enough combat power. ”
The dwarf shook his head, and smiled again: "The gang of the Black Jiao Hall suffered more losses than us, so they proposed a truce to us, if it weren't for the next exploration of the ruins, I really wanted to take this opportunity to completely destroy them." ”
"The day the ruins will be opened, and it will be years away, so it's time for us to save up. ”
The stargazer took another sip of tea, and the chess pieces in his hand fell with a "snap", completing the final lore.
"You're still ruthless, you play chess so seriously. ”
The dwarf looked unhappy, and then said: "Recruit newcomers every four years in advance, and send ...... Sending the witch to carry it out was also her first official mission. ”
