Chapter 204: Visitors from the Mountain
On the old campus, Ryan sat bored on a bench, constantly writing and drawing on the map in his hand, not worrying about whether he would be exposed. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
But it wasn't his death, and Ryan had spent most of the afternoon walking around the neighborhood several times. Not only did he not encounter any danger, let alone a golem or an alarm, but if it weren't for the magic power that he could see around him after drinking the Demon Eye, he would have thought that he was in the forbidden area.
Of course, after a few laps, Ryan didn't gain nothing. With the map Woodlaw had given him, he had basically figured out half of the old campus. However, what is helpless is that the forbidden area is like a barrier, dividing the entire old campus into three parts.
The kitchen and dormitory are all located in the house, and if nothing else, the library is on the other side of the forbidden area.
With a long sigh, Banjing turned his head to look behind him, only to see wisps of dark blue magic blocking his vision, and the concentration of the magic flow that could be seen even without looking at the demon eye was obvious.
After hesitating for a moment, Ryan took out a bottle of white, translucent potion from his waist bag, opened the cap, and poured it directly.
Arcane Resistance Potions can not only effectively reduce the casting failure rate caused by large changes in external mana, but also increase spell resistance to a certain extent.
Of course, that's not all, due to his own reasons, entering such a high concentration of magic area is likely to bring unexpected consequences, and Ryan naturally can't be too cautious.
Increases resistance, mage armor, and protects against chaos.
Ryan blessed all the protective spells he had learned, took a deep breath, and stepped into the range of the turbulent mana.
As if walking in water, as Ryan entered the range of the mana flow, the blockage sensation from his whole body made his movements become sluggish.
As he went deeper, as if he were in a thick fog, Ryan's vision was white, and it was difficult to see anything ten meters away.
As time went on, Ryan felt more and more that something was wrong.
It's at least a hundred meters, and it's not the end yet?
And, how is there nothing around?
Stopping the movement of moving forward, there was no shadow of any buildings in the surrounding scenery, Ryan looked at his feet with a solemn face, fortunately, it was still a regular bluestone brick paving.
Spatial folding, or illusion?
Ryan hesitated for a moment, and was about to pull out a bottle of Demon Eye from his waist when the sound of regular, subtle footsteps sounded in his ears like thunder.
Without looking, the half-elf immediately prostrated on the ground, only to see a vague tall figure gradually appear in the field of vision, fortunately the other party's travel route did not communicate with him, and with a low roar far away, it quickly disappeared.
Golem!
Although it was only a glimpse, Ryan was sure that this voice was definitely a golem!
However, the Golem's kinetic core is very sensitive, and once it is affected by large-scale magical turmoil, it can easily be paralyzed or even scrapped. According to Woodlow, the experimental accident must have reached the level of affecting the golem, not to mention that no one else repaired it, how did this golem work again, and why could it move freely in such a high concentration of mana?
Although he wondered about the origin of the golem, Ryan did not want to confront it head-on, and withdrew his gaze, and he walked quickly forward,
As Ryan had thought, the dense magical turbulence created a massive spatial overlay, or illusionary effect, that magnified its area many times more than Ryan's senses.
Thankfully, it doesn't have any other damaging effects.
The Forbidden Demon Zone is almost completely different from the outside world, with weeds everywhere, valuable gardening has long since withered, the exterior walls of buildings are covered with moss, and a thick layer of dust has accumulated on the ground, and Ryan's every movement can kick up a large cloud of dust.
At this moment, Ryan inexplicably felt awkward all over his body, unable to mobilize his magic power, just like the eyes that had been myopic for many years suddenly took off their eyes, and everything was 'blurry'. Only then did Ryan find out. It turned out that the use of magic had already unconsciously entered his daily life, not only spells, but also the extension of the five senses were carried out by magic.
Trying to mobilize the magic, and sure enough, it failed, Ryan shrugged his shoulders and didn't pay much attention to it, striding forward, walking to the other side.
As for concealment, there is no need to worry at all.
Woodlaw said that the magic turbulence is like an electromagnetic pulse, destroying most of the devices and facilities, and all magic items in the forbidden area are paralyzed, and even if there is a chance to restart, they must wait until the concentration of the surrounding magic power returns to normal or even higher levels before activation.
After all, he had been a mentor in Castle Shinestar, and had lived here for many years, and Woodlaw's words could not be wrong.
On the other side of the old campus, it was extremely empty, with twelve towering mage towers standing in a circle, one of which had long since collapsed, making the complex look asymmetrical and out of place. In the center, there was nothing but a huge church-like building.
Today, the old campus, which has been quiet for many years, is destined to be bustling.
A storm broke out on the flat ground, and the magic power that had been quiet suddenly trembled, and it quickly gathered and galloped towards the bottom of one of the mage towers.
Soon, the rich magic power became visible to the naked eye, condensing and entanglement at the bottom of the mage tower, quickly surging towards the countless intricate notches on the ground. With the contact of the magic power, the teleportation circle instantly bloomed with brilliant brilliance.
The moment the light of the circle reached the top, the endless magic power quickly twisted, turning into a huge blue portal.
A robed mage stepped out of it, and the student in the lead, apparently aware of the place, didn't show much surprise, and continued to use detection magic to patrol the surroundings.
The bright blonde hair appeared in front of the crowd, and Kemath still had that formulaic smile, but it looked much more natural than before.
Looking around, Kemas spoke to everyone very kindly: "I saw a lot of fresh faces, I think this time there are many people who have come back here for the first time, right?" ”
"Who are you?" Unexpectedly, it would be Lanier who answered him. I haven't seen him for nearly a month, and the boy's face is a little less immature and impetuous, and if you look closely, you will find that he has similarities with Ryan's temperament, self-confidence, and calmness.
"Introduce myself, my name is Kramaz, the proud protégé of Archmage Ervite."
Ervit? If memory serves, it seems to be the Morning Star Wizard.
Lanier's brow furrowed, and he inexplicably remembered Ryan, who was also a student of the legendary mage. The young man's face immediately fell, he glanced at the other party indifferently, and left without looking back: "It's my business." ”
The smile on the face of "......" paused, and Kemas buried his anger deep in his heart, still smiling, "This classmate, the danger of the old site of Shining Star Fort is not something that can be dealt with by one person, many people and many helpers. ”
It seemed to be an admonition, but there was a deep disdain in Kmmás's words, although the others didn't feel it, but just after falling on the other side, Lanier heard that something was wrong, as if he was laughing at his own inadequacy.
"You reminded me." With a chuckle, Lanier turned his head and said to the group, "I'm Lanier, who has just entered the fourth grade, and it's not my first time here at the old campus, so if you believe me, I won't treat you badly." ”
Seeing a new face approaching Lanier, Kmás's face darkened: "The things he is looking for are all in that mage tower, do you want to follow him to find death?" ”
Following his fingers, it was the half-collapsed tower, on which huge pieces of building debris floated with the help of magic, looking desolate and fantastic.
The mages who had been going to Lanier suddenly stopped and retreated in unison.
Perhaps the owner of the tower had been a mystery to them a few days ago, but today, with Lancedel's warning, they knew that it was the first Morning Star Wizard to fall into their own home so far.
The mage tower where the master fell is generally the favorite treasure exploration place for adventurers, but the one who really finds the treasure is never the first to eat the crab.
Accidental death means that the various spell traps and anti-intrusion systems of this mage tower have not been undone, and despite the baptism of magic storm, it is undeniable that this is the base of a legendary mage, and there will definitely be well-preserved magic facilities in it!
These people are not adventurers, and hesitation or even rejection of a path that is likely to put their lives in danger must be preferred, if Lanier can't give a suitable reason.
