Having money is good, and throwing out a lot of gold coins is a universal pass.

Located about 2,000 kilometers northeast of the Gourdell hills, from the edge of the empire to deep into the interior of the empire, Higg saw a tragic scene full of devastation.

The empire is on fire everywhere!

The Gauder region is still a semi-occupied area, but from the northeast of the Gauder region is already occupied by Arad.

Along the way, there was a flood of refugees, and there were people with their wives and children in all directions; There are many robbers, bandits, and hooligans; From time to time there were small riots, and there were also some small volunteers; The fields are barren and semi-barren, and the villages are rarely filled with smoke; Wars, famines, plunder, and massacres are everywhere. It is already late autumn, and the strong autumn mood has added to the desolation and misery of the people's livelihood and the desolation of all industries caused by the war.

The beacon fire in the occupied area is also tragic, and the official army, bandits, bandits, and volunteers are sketching a chaotic scene of suppression and resistance, encirclement and suppression, and counter-encirclement and suppression, and are staging a magnificent projection of the changing king's banner at the head of the city.

Higg watched helplessly. For him, it didn't matter whether the queen's camp or Arad's camp was to blame for these disasters, but it was Arad's Third Legion that wanted to kill him that made him biased in favor of the queen's camp.

In troubled times, everyone must make a choice, choose the queen's camp or the Arad camp, and fight for their respective camps? Not choosing a side is also a choice, such as a refugee who goes with the flow, or a bandit who is king of the mountain.

All of them want to end the war as soon as possible, and they are all calling for heroes to end this war, and the troubled times are about to open a heroic era.

But to end this war, what we are looking forward to is the real big hero, the big hero who dominates the ups and downs, supports the building to the top, and turns the tide in the fall.

It was as if Higg had heard the hero's call.

…………

All the way to the north, sometimes on the road alone, sometimes in a group, sometimes by car, sometimes by boat, more than a month later, I came to this small city that I should have come to more than three years ago - Dilis! But there is no trace of war in this small city, and the contrast with the scenes along the way is stark, and Higg can't help but be amazed.

I found the magic guild in the small city, and saw a four-story magic tower standing in the center of the guild, and the tower body faintly felt the magic light. There are independent huts scattered around the tower, the huts are the residence of the magicians, and the establishment of huts around the magic tower is conducive to the cultivation of magicians, and only the magic masters above the third level can be qualified to build huts here. The number of floors of the magic tower and the number of huts determine the size of the entire magic guild. The higher the number of floors of the tower and the greater the number of huts, the higher the scale status of the imitation guild.

Although it is a small city, it is the cradle of imperial magicians, with the largest number of magicians, and two of the ten great magicians in Middle-earth, and the McCann that Higg is looking for is one of them. The reason why it is blessed is because the small city of Dilis is built on the largest magical plain in the empire, so that the magicians who practice here can do more with less. As a result, the town became a magical mecca of the Empire.

The magic tower is actually a super magic laboratory, and each floor has a corresponding level of magic test hall for magicians to learn, test, and even develop new magic skills. Therefore, magicians who can learn three or more layers of magic are all with great wisdom, and such magicians have a respectable title - magicians.

The construction and maintenance of magic towers requires the consumption of a large amount of gold coins and a variety of large amounts of concentrates, so the general magic guild is supported by the supreme imperial ruler, but the magic guild is not affiliated with the empire, but cultivates a certain number of mages for the ruler in return. Therefore, the ruler and the magic guild are a transaction behavior, and the ruler who tries to occupy and enslave the magic guild will become the public enemy of the magicians of the whole continent.

The recruitment of new apprentices to the Magic Guild every three years has become the most lively place in the Empire, and hundreds of thousands of people will always come here to try to become apprentices of the Magic Guild, and every three years this grand occasion is called a magical pilgrimage.

Not all people are suitable to be able to enter the magic guild to practice and study, mainly because the magic field is difficult for most people to understand, plus the practice of magic is a painful and long process, and the famous magic guides are all gray temples.

There are two main ways to become a magic apprentice, one is to get one of the few qualifications recognized by the magic guild during the annual pilgrimage, and the other is the talent recommended by the ruler of the empire, funded by the empire, such a talent must serve for the imperial army for twenty years after completing the magic study and becoming a magician, and the cost can be imagined. There is also a third non-mainstream way, that is, if the Great Wizard finds a person with extremely high talent, he can recommend it to the Magic Guild or recruit himself as an apprentice, although this way is not the mainstream way, and the number of people is not large, but more than half of the magicians or magicians with extraordinary achievements come from this path.

The Dilis Magic Tower that Higg looked up to was shocked by the tall and majestic buildings, impressed by its faint magical pressure, and worshiped by its magnificent epic!

There were no walls, no guards, and no one was seen inside. Higg walked towards the magic tower, and when he was close to more than two hundred meters, Hig was blocked back by an invisible wall, which was difficult to cross.

"Magic Wall?" Higg exclaimed.

What should I do if I don't have a guard, I can't get in, and I don't see anyone inside?

"Old man McCann, what the hell are you asking me to come here and not letting me in?" Higg shouted loudly, several times in a row, but no one answered.

"Hahaha, another guy who wants to try his luck!"

"There have been too many people like this over the years, the world has been too chaotic, eh, poor boy!"

"Magicians are so popular, who wouldn't want to try their luck?"

……

Seven or eight crowds of people who love to watch the excitement came over and commented on the chatter.

"Child, it's useless to shout at your throat, those inside can't see or hear the outside, and the outside can't hear or see the inside! Only the Magical Guild's own people can enter and exit. They rarely go out though! A zealous old man said.

"Old man, isn't there any other way to get in?" Higg asked.

"No, ordinary people can not unlock the prohibition of the magic wall! Give up, there are people coming to make trouble every day, and I haven't seen anyone go in. ”

Unlock the ban on the magic wall? Higg didn't believe in evil, pulled out his matching sword, quickly rushed forward, and slashed at the magic wall with his sword, but was shocked by a huge force of arrival.

"Hey, they're all obsessed!" The old man sighed, shook his head and left.

The onlookers also shook their heads and began to leave, still chattering, "There is excitement every day, but it's all those few tricks, and there is nothing new!" ”

Higg was already angry in his heart, and when he was ridiculed again, he was completely angry. Took out the bow of the tree elf, and without saying a word, he opened his bow and shot an arrow, and an arrow whistled and remembered, and the bow and arrow shot at close range. With a bang, the arrow struck the magic wall in front of it, forming a huge ripple that rippled away.

"Who dares to attack the magic wall?" Five figures suddenly appeared behind the magic wall, and they all came to Higg, all young people in their twenties.

"Ben Shao is okay to walk, but he was hit by this magic wall, and he was upset, so how about trying its defense?" Higg smiled: "Who are you, do you want to fence the road with less money?" ”

One of them said, "We are the guards of the Magic Guild, what are you guilty of hitting our wall?" ”

Higg grinned and said, "I apologize, can't I apologize?" Brother Wall, I was wrong, I shouldn't have hit you. ”

"How dare you fool us?" The other man suddenly raised his right hand, chanted a spell, and then a magic arrow shot at Sig.

"Don't ......"

But it was too late, and the magic arrow shot at Higg's right shoulder, stirring up a faint smoke, shaking Hig a few times, and the clothes on his shoulders were burned, revealing a golden magical battle armor.

"Hey, this kid is also wearing armor, this armor is good, and it also has a magic defense function." The man who shot said.

"Philip, you're too impulsive, don't make trouble, let's go!"

Higg only shook a few times, but he felt faceless, damn, although he was poor since he was a child, when did he ever fight and suffer? Without saying a word, he raised his sword and rushed directly at the guy named Philip, kicking Philip to the ground with one kick, and then pointed the sword at his neck.

Although the magician's magic attack is powerful, the physical attack is their natural enemy, and the magician's own physical attack and defensive attack are simply miserable, so most magicians will have hired swordsmen to protect themselves, and the position of the magician legion in the army is the focus of the opponent's physical attack and the focus of their own defense.

Those few people were taken aback, they never dreamed that in front of their magic guild, someone would dare to do something to them, the magic attack was too late, it took time to recite the spell, and the other party had a hostage in hand.

There were also more spectators around.

"Do you want to run after hitting Ben Shao?" Higg asked coldly.

"Boy, are you sneaking up?" Philip was embarrassed and said angrily.

"You didn't beat me up very openly, did you, each other?"

"You want to kill me? Hehe, you don't dare to do it! ”

"Ben Shao didn't dare to kill you, so what kind of pants did you pee? Ha ha! Higg said with a smile, "Ben Shao may not have to kill you, but Ben Shao's hands will tremble when he is threatened, and I don't know if he will leave something on your neck." ”

"This friend!" Several other people didn't seem to dare to make a big deal out of it, and one of them said, "I think it's over, he hit you, you kicked him, everyone was not hurt, settle it peacefully, forget it." ”

Higg said coldly: "Ben Shao has always respected me, I respect everyone, he hit me, Ben Shao's kick just charged some interest first." Besides, let him go, so many of you, if you regret it, will Ben Shao be able to run? ”

"Then what do you want, after all, you attacked our magic wall first." The man said.

"How dare you mention the wall? Ben Shao walks well, you stand here on the invisible wall, and don't put a sign or anything, hurt Ben Shao and almost injured him, of course Ben Shao has to find the wall to vent. Besides, I've apologized to the wall, and now if I release someone, then I'm not at a loss? ”

With a pop, a sword stabbed into Philip's right shoulder, "Boy, you are not small, Ben Shao is talking, but you are a thief, secretly running magic and trying to sneak attack Ben Shao?" With that, Higg drew his sword and pointed it right at his neck.

Philip sighed, "If you don't kill me, I'll break you to pieces!" Philip said angrily to Higg with red eyes.

"You see, Ben Shao wanted to let him go, but he couldn't let Ben Shao go!" Higg smiled disdainfully at the man.
