"This is Ruud's room, and his portal should be in the hilly terrain around Danakhan, which is his hometown and where he aspires to become a magician......"

"Here...... It was Comina's room, a genius who had an accident at the age of twenty-six...... Oh, be careful, she put a ban in her room before she died, and she still looks the way it was. ”

"This is Finalls's room, he used to be a great mage who practiced fire magic during his lifetime, because he has spent his life trying to use the flame mimic, so his portal should lead directly to the northern land of fire......"

"This is Nataya's room, she used to be a king of the water system, but since she failed an experiment, she began to study other magic, I remember she later became a magician who refined the power of the Void, although there was no such concept of Void magic at that time...... What the? Isn't there still either? Sorry, I may have said too much. ”

With the continuous pace of progress and the sound of Virtek's explanation again and again, the rooms on the twenty-fourth floor of this high tower began to be opened one after another, and the portals leading to all corners of this world also appeared in front of them one after another as Duan Qing and the two of them passed. The layout and decoration of each room also changed delicately with the change of their respective owners, but the only thing that remained unchanged was the dust that covered the room, so after a period of visiting, Duan Qing finally asked the question that seemed to be incomparably obvious: "That...... Are all the people here gone? ”

"If you're talking only about the living...... Yes. ”

Looking back at the other party, Vitak's voice remained flat as before: "Except for the old guy Norman, everyone is gone." ”

"Norman...... How old is he now? So Duan Qing asked hesitantly.

"Four hundred and twelve."

The question that he didn't expect to be answered was actually answered, and Vitak's voice also carried a slight sigh: "He should be one of the oldest members of the Mage Council, and one of the oldest members of the Mage Council, even the current Council of Seven must respect some of the old man's suggestions......"

“……”

"Don't worry, he doesn't bother with council anymore."

It seemed that Duan Qing's face saw the worry in his mood, Vitak, who had stopped, waved his hand, and then waved forward and continued to walk towards the front of the tower: "Like the other members who have appeared here, Norman is now a dying guy, and in order to avoid such thoughts often appearing in his mind, he rarely lives here now......"

"Fart! Lao Tzu just doesn't want to see the names of these guys! ”

As this voice sounded, the voice belonging to Norman also appeared at the other end of the circular corridor: "Won't you feel sad every day when you look at the tracks of a group of guys who used to work with you but are now buried in this world?" ”

"Of course I won't, because I'm the grave keeper here." Looking at the old man who stepped forward with his hands behind his back, the corners of Virtek's mouth pulled a slight smile: "If you feel sad because of the traces of sleeping here, then how can you be a good grave keeper?" ”

"Okay, well, I know that your heart is as hard as a rock." The old man who was hunched raised his eyelids and glanced at Vitak, and muttered in a low voice: "The world says that magicians who practice earth magic can live a long life, and I think that you descendants of Marlock are the ones who are most likely to live long, not only can they stay in this place, but they can also clearly remember the names of so many people...... You two! ”

"How did you get to this place?" His eyelids lowered and turned his gaze to the direction where Duan Qing was: "Have you learned everything that has been taught to you?" ”

"That ......" Duan Qing let out a few dry laughs: "That...... We started out just walking around and then suddenly wanted to go upstairs and have a look......"

"There's nothing to see here." The old man waved the sleeves of his shabby robe: "You are still ...... Come back with me. ”

"There are a lot of portals in this place, and they lead to all parts of the Free Continent." Xue Lingphantom Bing, who was standing beside Duan Qing, said in a low voice, "We suspect that these passages may become the weak point of this place, so we want to follow in the footsteps of this magician and check ......"

"Weakness?"

Scanning the surroundings of Snow Spirit Ice with strange eyes, Norman rolled his eyelids: "An adventurer who knows almost nothing magic actually claims that this tower has its own weaknesses? Am I being left behind by the magical currents of this world because of my age, or are I you adventurers...... Started to become arrogant because you haven't seen the greatness of magic? ”

"But you can't deny it...... This place is in danger of being invaded. Without the slightest respect for the other party, Xue Ling's voice was still quiet and cold: "There have been many traitors in the Mage Council for a while, and they should still have a way to return here......

"I'm sorry to bother you with the argument, but I've taken those clearances back." Standing at the forefront, Virtek said with a smile: "My magic list has the names of all the people who use this space, they are the users of this world, but they are not the managers of this world. ”

"From the day they are removed from the Mage's Council, everything they have here will also be erased." Norman, who was in the rear, then continued: "As for everything they left here...... The Mage Council will also erase it as appropriate. ”

"But...... We didn't seem to find anything like this along the way. ”

As if sensing the increasingly cold expression of the woman beside him, Duan Qing hurriedly half-concealed the other party behind him: "Isn't every portal here working normally?" You guys really have a good ...... to shut down these."

"Don't forget, it's twenty-four floors."

Before Duan Qing could finish speaking, Norman interrupted the other party in a low voice: "The magicians who can leave a mark on the twenty-fourth floor of the Tyrann Tower are all magicians who have already achieved something in this world, how can these people with exquisite magical skills and noble character become traitors to the Mage Council?" Most of the names on the wanted list of the Mage Council are those who have given up on themselves before they reach the tenth floor, and their achievements can be imagined, and the threat posed by the portal they left behind can be ...... It's all out of sight under our feet. ”

"Do you want to see those places, adventurers?" Speaking of this, Norman let out an eerie chuckle: "Go to the bottom of the Tower of Tyranny and explore these so-called threats?" ”

"Uh......" Duan Qing scratched the back of his head: "Since the Norman master has said so, then we still ......"

“…… Let's take a look. ”

Interrupting Duan Qing's words again, Xue Lingphantom Bing, who stepped forward, gave the other party an inconspicuous look: "The situation is indeed as Master Norman said, the possibility that there may be a threat on this level should be very small, in that case, we might as well go directly to a more threatening place to check......"

"Hey, it's different from what we agreed before." Duan Qing on the side hurriedly pulled back the other party's body that was exposed again: "What about making a sum of money and leaving?" ”

"Without Plan B, can't we make an improvised Plan C?" Xue Lingphantom Ice replied in a low voice: "You can't be too greedy, anyway, with so many people staring, it's impossible for us to secretly move anything here......

"It's like something below can be secretly moved...... Well, those traitor stuff might have a chance. ”

Thinking about the gains and losses in his heart, Duan Qing nodded slightly, and then under the scrutiny of the two magicians in front and behind, he smiled dryly: "That...... Well, we do have some suspicions about the portals left behind by those on the blacklist, and for the sake of fate, can you take us to check it out now? ”

“…… You should be glad that I'm in a pretty good mood today. ”

After a slight silence, Vitak in front of Duan Qing showed a smile again, and the doors of the rooms that had just been opened around the twenty-fourth floor suddenly closed with the movement of his hand waving again: "Otherwise...... I'm going to take what you said as a question of me. ”

"Questioning is always relative, before the time...... Haven't you questioned the possibility of losing the Emerald Star? Duan Qing smiled indifferently: "Everyone is just trying to rule out the possibility of existence, please believe our original intention." ”

"Even if it's extremely unlikely...... Is that right? Norman, who was holding his hands behind his back, shook his head a little helplessly, and finally turned around and walked downstairs: "Okay, old man, I'll trust you for the time being." ”

"Christine and Freya have also admired you before." The figure belonging to Virtek also began to slowly appear in mid-air: "In that case...... Then come with me. ”

In the circular tower that constantly surrounded all kinds of magic floats, the eyes of Duan Qing and Xue Lingphantom Ice were then withdrawn from the trajectory of the figure gradually floating into the air, and then with the footsteps of Norman, who left first, along the ancient steps when he came, the eyes from Duan Qing's secret observation also continued to wander around the circular corridor in this process, and finally gave up the idea of competing with this strange and changing space, and then in this kind of height difference that was constantly changing back and forth, Returned to the location of the tenth floor of the Tower of Tyranny: "Hmm, then ...... next"

"Mo Shang Qingshan?"

A surprised voice suddenly sounded beside several people, located in the doorway of a certain room on the side of the circular corridor: "Why are you here?" ”

“…… Lord Tress? Duan Qing, who turned around, also raised his eyebrows in a little surprise: "It turns out ...... You're here too. ”

"Just drop by and take care of your own business."

Still sorting out his own noble mage robe, Tress, who had cooperated with Duan Qing and the two several times in some tasks before, slowly walked in front of them, and his right arm, which was holding some book materials, also moved slowly, and finally landed in the direction where Norman appeared: "It's you...... What are you doing? ”

"This little guy was curious about a lot of the designs here, so he wanted to come and see them." Old Norman replied with his hands behind his back, "Lord Marlock has agreed, and is now acting as their guide temporarily......"

"Guide? Lord Marlock? ”

Looking up at the magical creations that were constantly shuttling back and forth in the center of the circular tower, Tress's surprise became a little greater: "You guys...... The two of them plan to join the Mage Council? ”

"No, no, no, I won't take them!" Norman immediately shook his head: "No matter how old I get, I won't choose my apprentice so hungry!" These two guys are not even as good as ordinary magic apprentices and join the Mage Council...... It's just going to fall to my name! ”

"Hey, don't say it so sadly." Duan Qing replied helplessly, "At least at the beginning, you also gave me some basic magic skills and the like......

“…… I see, you have some personal friendship with the Norman master. ”

Retracting his gaze from the old man who had started shouting from behind, Tress's surprised face loosened slightly: "He was the one who introduced you in, right?" ”

"Aha, it's just a wonderful coincidence, we had some trouble when we were in Windflower Town before, and then we happened to be rescued by Master Norman......"

"Windflower Town? It's the territory of the Restoration, and you adventurous adventurers shouldn't be able to break into it easily......"

"Lord Tress...... Have you ever infiltrated the current Winflower Town? ”

"Of course, as the forerunner of the Mage Council, I have an obligation to investigate everything that has been occupied by the Restorationists, so that when the main force of the Mage Council arrives, I can quickly adjust the best course of action......

Slightly clumsy exchanged a courtesy with the other party, Duan Qing, who stepped forward, put on his smile again, and then after a period of customary greetings and greetings, he talked with the other party who took the lead, Vitak, who had already arrived first, still did not appear for some reason, but the old Norman, who had stopped losing his temper, slowly followed with a disdainful face, and the snow spirit phantom ice that had been observing the surroundings cautiously withdrew his eyes, and then came to the rear of Duan Qing, who was politely exchanging with Tress:" There's another one......"

"Now I don't have a choice for Plan C." Duan Qing handed back a look to the other party: "Take one step at a time." ”

"This should at least be checked out." Xue Lingphantasm thought slightly: "Even if there is no gain, at least ......"

“……”

The two men stopped talking in unison, and at the same time set their eyes on the destination in front of them, where a teleportation mirror that the two had seen several times was revealing behind the half-open door, revealing the scene on the other side of the portal in front of their eyes.
