"The Sage's Tower...... I've seen this name in books. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info This is a sacred place established by some hermits who do not want to be bound by any power, and it is dedicated to taking in like-minded cultivators who are bent on pursuing the pinnacle of their own self and have no concern for worldly power. Roark heard the name of the Sage's Tower and recalled information about the place.

"The description of the Sage's Tower in the books is only the tip of the iceberg. As far as I know, there are many powerful people of the older generation who have been famous on the continent of Anais for a long time and joined the Sage Tower in their later years and lived in seclusion here. Now the situation on the mainland is very critical, Roque, you don't know what kind of person my father is, he has huge ambitions in his heart and knows how to forbear, and he will not tear his face until he is fully sure that he can win. Even those countries that are rotten to the bone will not be able to resist his offensive at all. ”

"So, the only one who can save all of this now is the Sage Tower, a completely neutral force." Emilia wasn't really confident that she would be able to convince the higher-ups of the Sage's Tower to help, but there was no other way to do it now.

"Eh, with all due respect, doesn't the goddess care about this kind of war that has swept the entire Anais continent?" As soon as Roque said this, Emilia looked at him with an alien-looking look, which made Roque extremely embarrassed.

"Are you an idiot, unless you encounter a plane invasion, or a disaster of the level of the dragon's destruction, you can't take action at will. It's just a war between continents like this, and the goddess won't care about it at all. Emilia explained.

"However, we are divine beings, even if we go to the goddess for help, we can't get help?" Mi Lu also interjected at this time.

Emilia gave Milou a serious look and made sure she wasn't joking before she said, "You have to make it clear that the divine favor is a gift from the goddess to you, not a favor, just like a rich man gives a beggar a bowl of rice at will, and the beggar will be grateful, but if you ask the beggar to ask the rich man to help him get out of poverty, will the rich man do this?" The rich will only answer that this is your own business, and it is up to you to think about how to solve it. ”

Milou was choked by Emilia's cold words, she couldn't imagine that the goddess, who seemed to be gentle and kind, could be so cold and heartless.

"God is not a human after all. The mess that human beings themselves have caused should be solved by themselves. Emilia gripped her wand in her hand, and the fluctuations in magic coming from it reassured her.

Nothing to say all the way.

The speed of the wyvern was undoubtedly very fast, and even so, when Roque and the others finally reached the Atlas Mountain, where the Sage's Tower was located, it was already a day later.

Atlas Mountain is located in the northernmost part of the continent of Anais, adjacent to the Ice Dragon Empire, and is the highest mountain on the continent of Anais. It is covered in snow and ice all year round, and it rarely sees daylight, so it is also known as the "Sunset Mountain". However, the original founder of the Sage Tower chose this place precisely because of this special condition. Since most of the time is at night, the stars at night are so clear and dazzling that they are a rare treasure for "astrologers", and the first owner of the Sage Tower happens to be a powerful astrologer, who made countless predictions during his decades of settling here. Among them are the famous "Invasion of Hell" and "Miracle of Light".

Once here, the Wyvern could no longer fly, so Emilia and Roque had no choice but to jump off the Wyvern and hike to the Sage's Tower.

Everyone was at least a fourth-order professional, and the cold naturally couldn't affect them, so under the guidance of Emilia, they climbed all the way up, and finally saw the legendary sage tower.

A massive, mountain-tall tower-like structure towered atop the top of Atlas Mountain, a bright orange beam from the top of the tower, piercing the clouds into the distance and scanning back and forth over time.

There was a huge door at the bottom of the tower, which was closed tightly, unresponsive to the arrival of Roque and the others.

Emilia took the first step and imprinted her palm on a small magic circle under the gate, and the magic power surged, and the magic array emitted a trace of light, as if it had transmitted the message to the tower.

After waiting for a long time, even Roque almost thought that all the people in the tower were dead, and finally a voice asked, "Who is here?" ”

"Princess of the Yog Empire, Yog Emilia!"

"Huh? Why is Her Royal Highness the Princess of the Yog Empire here, shouldn't you sit in the palace and wait for the news of your father's triumph? There was a hint of sarcasm in that voice, and it didn't seem to have a good impression of the Yug Empire.

Emilia frowned: "I'm not here to show off my might, I'm here to ask for help." ”

"Oh? The Yog Empire, with an army of hundreds of thousands of monsters, still needs help? I am afraid that I don't want to take the opportunity to carry out a thorough purge of the hostile forces. Sorry, we have no intention of interfering in this matter, please go back. The voice began to give the order to evict the guests.

"Wait a minute!" Emilia hurriedly shouted, "I mean I want to ask the Sage Tower to help the rest of the countries on the continent of Anas fight against the attack of the Yug Empire, otherwise, I'm afraid it won't take long for Anas to become a purgatory on earth!" ”

“…… It's ridiculous. Your father wants to destroy all the countries and dominate the continent, and you don't want to be the princess of your empire, but you come here to ask for help? Let's help those stupid nobles keep their country? I wonder if you've read too much historical fiction and think the War of Nations is interesting? ”

“…… Not. I just didn't agree with my father's idea, and I didn't want to see Anais have only one country from now on, so I was willing to give up my low-hanging status and power and choose to stand in opposition to my father. ”

"To be honest, I can't believe you little girl. Who knows if you weren't sent by your father to be an undercover spy? Instigating us to intervene in the war, and then taking the opportunity to wipe out us and the rest of the forces? This outrageous conspiracy was used up countless years ago. Save it, you can go back wherever you came from, even if your Yog Empire really dominates Anais, it has nothing to do with us, we don't need to look at your face to act. ”

“…… If you still don't believe me, then I'll just prove it to you. Emilia was not disappointed after being rejected mercilessly, but her eyes became more determined.

Moreover, she did something that stunned everyone present.

Emilia stabbed her wand into her lower abdomen, shattering the source of her magic!

"Holy! Amilia, you're crazy! Roque was stunned by Emilia's actions, and after reacting, he quickly rushed up and hugged Emilia, who was already unsteady on her feet and about to fall.

"Now I've shattered the source of my magic. So I've lost all my power now, and I'm a wasted person. And even if I didn't get hurt after that, I wouldn't have lived long. So you should be able to trust me, right? Amilia's pretty face was pale and frightening, and her hands couldn't cover the large amount of blood flowing out of her lower abdomen, which was coagulated just after flowing out in this cold weather, and the bright red and pure white against her figure made Roque feel inexplicably distressed.

The other party seemed to be frightened by Emilia's astonishing behavior, and fell silent for a while.

So the group was silent on the top of this Anais, and the icy cold wind whistled and blew, bringing up Emilia's hair, and gently brushing Roque's cheek, as if he had met the girl for the first time, and was struck by her strength and courage.
