Chapter 315: City of Flames (Second Update)
On the seventh floor of the Fire King's Tower, in the Alchemy Laboratory, somewhere in a room. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
Gavin played with the leaf of life in his hand, thoughtfully.
The swamp of death, no more.
Three days ago, for the first time in a hundred years, the Tower of the Fire King showed its fangs, a hundred-fold magnified light strike array, which fell into the Death Swamp, and then penetrated the Death Swamp to destroy the ancient evil gods hidden deep underground.
This attack reminded Gavin of the attack that the "City of the Seven Underworlds" wiped out the kilometer-old vampire demon vine 10,000 years ago, with similar intensity, like a divine attack.
It's just that the original "Seven Netherworld Cities" only hit casually, and did not dispatch the most terrifying weapons, not even conventional weapons. And three days ago, the Tower of the Fire King accumulated a hundred years of energy, and I don't know how much it consumed.
The blazing flames evaporated all the water, and a huge crater more than three thousand meters deep replaced the original Death Swamp.
Subsequently, dozens of high-level mages from the City of Flames, led by the six archmages of the Flame Council, arranged a super-large spell enchantment to seal the huge pit, and the fiery red light shield obscured all vision.
What exactly happened in that battle, no one knows.
The only thing Gavin knew was that Master Prespo's soul was injured and he had to return to the Mage Tower to recuperate, leaving only a mirror clone to study the enchanted mirror system in the mirror room.
And the Tower of the Fire King ushered in three uninvited guests the next day.
It was the mirror doppelganger of the three legendary mages, I don't know where they came from, and they were soon invited to the ninth layer by the Lord of Flames, Gavin only glanced at it from a distance, and then until today, they have not come out.
None of this has anything to do with Gavin.
In that battle three days ago, Gavin performed very well and even played a decisive role. So in the end, the Lord of Flames and Master Prespo gave him all three Leaves of Life as a reward.
The reward is really generous, and Gavin doesn't have any grievances.
Contentment.
Each leaf of life is worth no less than 100,000 gold coins. If that Marquis Liszt was still alive, even if he exchanged 500,000 gold coins for a leaf of life, he would be willing.
Of the other three Leaves of Life, one was left by the Lord of Flames, one was taken by Master Prespo, and one was said to have been sent to the Sacred Forest, where His Excellency the Great Druid needed an explanation.
The two leaves of life were yellow, but Gavin could revive them at any time, but not now.
The limelight was out of the picture, and the Lord of Flames must have seen something, but before Master Prespo left, he told Gavin not to worry, no one was going to do anything to him.
Because he was her student.
Putting away the Leaf of Life, Gavin took out four more elemental crystals.
Ice Elemental Crystal, Fire Elemental Crystal, Earth Elemental Crystal, Wind Elemental Crystal.
The hedrons used by Lord Saint Druid to construct the four-element enchantment all fell into his hands.
Although these hedrons are legendary items, their value is too different from that of the legendary equipment. The sum of the four intact hedrons can only be equivalent to the most ordinary legendary equipment.
And they have run out of energy.
Of course, you can find a way to recharge, but it is more difficult, and the value is still reduced too much.
The circumstances of that battle, apart from Gavin, were known only to the Lord of Flames and Master Prespo.
Master Prespo is notoriously short-guarded, and she will never covet anything from her students. And as the owner of a magical acropolis, the Lord of Flames is not yet interested in these hedrons.
Gavin didn't have to worry and continued his experiments.
Master Prespo left him here, and the Lord of Flames had more important matters to attend to, so he was given access to this room for a month as a reward for him.
Because in a month's time, Master Prespo will take him away and go to the territory of the Merlin Mage.
The alchemical apparatus here is very comprehensive.
Although it is only a small room in the huge alchemy laboratory, although the sparrow is small, it has all the organs, and many archmages' alchemy laboratories may not be as comprehensive as here.
The room looks small, but in fact it uses the technology of space folding, and the interior is very large. Those valuable alchemy utensils, Gavin looked at them with greed.
The "Dragon's Eye", which is owed to the fire dragon Amy, must be made as soon as possible. That guy is careful. Three days ago, when he was in danger, Gavin tried to summon her again, but no one responded. I don't know if the eldest lady is in a bad mood, or if she simply thinks that Gavin doesn't have the eye of the dragon, so she doesn't want to deal with it.
As night fell, Gavin left the Tower of the Fire King and wandered through the streets of the City of Fire.
The Magic Acropolis is a satellite city in the Magic City system, all over the most important places in the Continent of the Gods, with the Magic Holy City as the center, forming a magic array that is said to be extremely powerful, the legendary Great Guardian Enchantment, but no one can confirm all this.
But at least the fiery red light curtain that envelops the city is real.
This light curtain is centered on the Tower of the Fire King, centered on the six-pointed star array of the Pillar of Fire and Gold at the top of the tower, and especially the "Eye of Andus" suspended in it, forming a very powerful flame barrier.
Most of the time, this enchantment is less than one percent open. But if necessary, at full power, even the legendary powerhouses will not be able to enter the city.
This is the confidence of the City of Flames.
The city has fewer than three thousand permanent residents, of whom there are fewer than a thousand mages, and an even greater number of followers.
Of the 1,000 mages, only one-third are high-level mages or archmages, and one-third are their mage apprentices or regular students.
The total area of this city is not much different from Pegasus City. Almost every high-level mage has a spire of their own. These ordinary minarets are scattered throughout the City of Fire, defending the Tower of the Fire King. And the most towering of them belong to the few archmages.
The City of Flames is home to more than thirty archmages, which is almost half of the entire Holy Griffin Empire combined. You must know that even the court archmages of the Flame Kingdom are only three. The number of archmages in the entire Flame Kingdom will not exceed ten.
One of these archmage towers is one of the more grandiose, six stories high, and it is relatively close to the Tower of the Fire King.
It was the spire that once belonged to the Fire Master, now under Morgana's name.
Three days ago, when that earth-shattering battle was over, the Lord of Flames was very fond of Morgana, a sixteen-year-old high-ranking mage, and invited her to join the Lord of Flames, and said that he was willing to teach him personally.
Morgana agreed.
She has always been very fond of fire spells, and has a very high talent in this area.
When he was in Pegasus City, he was favored by the Lord of Pegasus, and Master Nikolai liked her very much, and even often taught her himself, but Morgana was not a student of Master Nikolai.
Now she is a student of the Lord of Flames.
Then the Flame Lord gave her Master of Flame's spire, and Gavin gave all the loot he received from Master Flame to Morgana.
Gavin wasn't here to find Morgana, who was reading the magic books in the Fire King's Tower's library.
He's here for Amelia and Hans.
The two of them are not of high status, and it is impossible for them to be allowed to stay in the Tower of the Fire King, so they can only live here temporarily.
The door opened, and Amelia bent down to lift her skirt, respectful.
