Chapter 313: A Hundred Years of Truth
After Zhao Xu suddenly heard this voice, he still cautiously asked some private information, and only then did he confirm that the voice he heard in his heart was indeed Antinoya.
Because according to his understanding, the other party never observes his actions with boredom.
In Antinoya's opinion, as long as Zhao Xu is not used up before the five resurrection stones are used, he is equivalent to being in a full state, so naturally he doesn't have to worry about him at all.
In the end, at the suggestion of Antinoya, Zhao Xu paid a bag of gold coins he got for the Half-Plane Mission of the Reaper as the cost of buying out the news.
Frost Sword and the others also swore to him not to divulge the secrets of this area again, and also handed over the "notebook" to him.
For this kind of one-time buyout, Zhao Xu is also very decisive in making a starting price, and he can't tell if he still has the end of his hand when he gets it.
In fact, when the watchmen union saw the gold coin given by Zhao Xu, they didn't react for a while, after all, they were on a very weak side, but they didn't expect this storm mage to be so willing.
In the end, Frost Sword nodded to Zhao Xu to express his gratitude, and at the same time hinted that he could solve some things that were inconvenient for the Wind Mage in the future, and even run errands.
At this time, after everyone saw the bag of gold coins that Zhao Xu took out, they basically regarded him as a powerful NPC who could hug his thighs.
Zhao Xu politely left the "contact information" to Shuangjian and the others.
The Wardens Guild players then rushed back to Mystra overnight, with no idea of going underground.
With the Tempest Mages bought out, it's their turn to get out of the way, and it's riskier for them to get closer to Sunset Peaks.
After all the personnel were evacuated, Zhao Xu stepped on the stone steps again and walked up, standing on the high platform next to the Mirror Moon Lake.
"Mentor, shouldn't you have been paying attention to me since you came out of me?" Zhao Xu asked knowingly.
"You think too much, it was you who entered this area, and I focused on it, who would have thought that I would meet an acquaintance."
"Enter?" Zhao Xu was a little strange.
"The territory of Xifeng Valley is my fiefdom, and I will naturally know what disturbance you have done." Antinoya said lightly.
Fief?
This sacred, and at the same time representing Arthur's landlord class, immediately grasped Zhao Xu's heart.
The fief itself means that he has all the legal rights over the territory area, but Arthur's fief acquisition form is extremely strict, because he still has to go through the level of the gods.
Zhao Xu didn't expect Antinoya to have this kind of capital, and suddenly the other party in his mind felt a shining golden light.
In this case, the ferocious bear was said to be Antinoya's domestic animal, and they killed it casually.
Zhao Xu also vaguely understood, if the mage tower really settled at the bottom of Mirror Moon Lake, then it was really impossible for Antinoya not to know.
If he had known that the Mage Tower was within three or four days' distance of Mystra when he was in Mistra at the beginning, he would have been suspicious.
A hundred years ago, the real mages of Mystra were able to ignore the fall of a mage tower under their noses so much?
Antinoa's appearance at this moment finally cleared his doubts.
"Mentor, you dug up the mage tower before?" Zhao Xu asked.
At this time, he was also relieved.
Even the enemies who may peep around, that is also a local chicken.
And with Antinoya's intervention, then the next notebook will be fused with him.
"The mage tower is still under the bottom of the lake, and I didn't dig it out." Antinoya said lightly.
At this time, the slightly drunk night breeze blew across Zhao Xu's face, making him feel a little cool, and also made him sober up a little.
"Mentor, how underneath you are?" Zhao Xu asked.
Obviously, a group of them had just searched for a night, and the spells alone had taken 60 hours, and they had found nothing.
"That mage tower was smashed into the bottom of the lake by the mage Errol himself before he died. Hmph, these Nine Ring Mages had mediocre talents when they advanced to Legends, and they were calculated as legendary mages. ”
"I know that I don't look down on his mage tower, and I'm afraid that other mages will be greedy for ink. He smashed it directly into my territory, wanting me to keep it for him for free for a few hundred years, and then dig up this mage tower when a gifted mage appears in his descendants. ”
"It's just that doing business is on my head, how can there be such a cheap thing. The mage tower was smashed by him for a full thirty kilometers from the sky to the ground, and I doubled it for him, and continued to smash it for another thirty kilometers under the lake. Antinoya said proudly at this time, as if she was very satisfied with what she had done.
After listening to this, Zhao Xu could only secretly complain that this kind of "revenge" method is indeed a practice that has not grown up.
And the other party fell thirty kilometers and fell in the air. Antinoa is a rock barrier that forcibly runs through the ground, and the difficulty is not at all a level.
It seems that the spell of "no trace of time" does not increase the age of the heart, and it does have a price.
It's just that Zhao Xu also relaxed even more after thinking about it, and he didn't worry about the leakage of the Mage Tower.
Thirty kilometers below the Falling Star Lake, within the surrounding area of ten kilometers, the distance from the Mage Tower is basically about thirty kilometers.
In this way, Frost Sword and the others knew the hiding place of the Mage Tower, but it didn't make much sense.
The value that really has a lot of significance is actually the encrypted part of the back of the notebook in his hand. So Zhao Xu paid that gold coin, in fact, he also bought out this cause and effect.
"Huh? You want to dig up that mage tower? ”
Suddenly, Antinoya's figure suddenly appeared beside Zhao Xu, standing side by side with him.
And Zhao Xu also relied on the "True Perception Technique" to see Antinoya's invisible figure, but he couldn't detect Antinoya's existence from his sense of smell and various senses, indicating that the other party was using a higher ring of invisibility.
After Antinoa teleported out, he kept looking at the fiefdom he owned in front of him.
"Mentor, it stands to reason that thing is also an ownerless thing, and it doesn't violate common sense for me to dig it up, right?" Zhao Xu asked.
"It's natural, those players saved the descendants of Errol, and after getting the permission of the other party, they were born with the ownership of the mage tower, and you just bought it out from the other party, and you also got the theoretical ownership. As long as you can dig up that mage tower, you will naturally be its owner. ”
"Actually, Errol deliberately smashed in, also to let me, the owner of the territory, also have partial ownership over time. But I don't mind, so I'll dig it up as you like. Antinoia laughed cheerfully.
A mage tower, after all, is a big matter.
Therefore, Zhao Xu didn't want to have flaws in the process, and he was relieved when he heard Antinoya's words.
If a group of adventurers broke into the tower and looted the things on the tower, it would be tenable in principle, after all, they were all ownerless things that no one had taken care of for too long.
But if the group of adventurers wanted to claim that they owned the mage tower, there would be a lot of fighting.
This is also why Frost Sword gave up the ownership of the tower in the first place, because only the Mage Guild itself can eat it.
However, the premise of possession is to "dig" it.
Thirty kilometers, Zhao Xu walked on the field for a day, and it was just this distance to die.
The Earth's crust is also about tens of kilometers thick, with granite on the outside and basalt on the inside. Arthur's surface estimates are also approximate.
This means that the mage's tower is hidden in a rock at a depth of thirty kilometers.
Zhao Xu couldn't help frowning, "Master, that mage tower wasn't flattened by the vibration of the earth's crust, right?" ”
Most of the earthquakes on Earth spread in the earth's crust, and he didn't want to end up diving thirty kilometers deep to find a scrapped mage tower that had been crushed and torn apart.
"Do you think it's possible? I think you need to get to know who is standing in front of you. Antinoya spoke cheerfully.
Isn't that a legendary mage?
Zhao Xu didn't think about it angrily.
At this time, Antinoya turned her head sideways to look at Zhao Xu, her eyes were very bright in the night, as if they were flashing with starlight.
"When you find a way to dive 30 kilometers underground, you'll be able to go in and loot the treasure. When you have the means to dig it out, then you are qualified to own such a mage tower. ”
Hearing this, Zhao Xu frowned.
In Antinoya's words, let him divide into two steps: "finding" and "digging".
The first one alone is not so easy to do.
The current depth of human technology drilling on Earth is only 12 kilometers.
Zhao Xu immediately reviewed the list of all the spells he knew. If he wants to reach the underground of thirty kilometers directly, he may have to rely on the "teleportation technique", and at the same time, he must immediately perform the "Thor Stone Walking Technique" of the five rings, otherwise he will be crushed to death by the stone after teleporting.
However, the "Teleportation" scroll of the Five Rings was not so difficult for Zhao Xu to obtain.
It is that he has to do a good job of investigative information to make himself "extremely familiar" with the target location, otherwise he may teleport to a similar area, or even be killed on the spot.
"Mentor, is there any treasure in the Mage Tower?" Zhao Xu asked, he needed to use this to determine his strength.
There was nothing in the meeting later, and he would go in now and waste two five-ring scrolls back and forth.
"At least there is no shortage of high-ring spell scrolls." Antinoia replied.
After listening to this, Zhao Xu secretly thought, such words are indeed worth his fight.
"Well, since you want to take a shortcut with the teleportation technique of the Five Rings, then you will have to go back to Mystra to do your homework again and investigate the details of the Mage Tower."
Antinoya saw through Zhao Xu's intentions at once, "Okay, you still have to accumulate level 6 in Mystra, and then go out and venture to the Mage Tower." During this time, I will also arrange a faculty member for you by the way, anyway, you are a little qualified at level 5. ”
"Advanced?" Zhao Xu asked in surprise.
"Didn't you already get the notebook?"
Antinoya's gaze fell on the lead box in Zhao Xu's hand at this time.
