Chapter 69: The Hermit
After ignoring Xiaobai, the protagonist Succubus looked at Yulia again, and said, "You should know the owner of this mage tower, right?" How about leaving the negotiation to you? β
"Well, of course it's fine." Yulia replied. After that, he walked in front and approached the brass mage tower with the righteous adventure group.
As if sensing someone approaching, the originally silent mage tower was activated. The huge gem set at the top of the Mage's Tower glows brightly. At the same time there was thunder rolling.
The main character, the succubus, could feel that a powerful, devastating power of thunder and lightning contained in that gem.
"Artifact...... At least it's a sub-artifact-level treasure. I don't know if it's the power of the gem, or if it's with the power of the Mage Tower...... Well...... I guess it's the latter. After all, artifacts and sub-artifacts are rare. Mage or something, it's terrifying. β
The main character, the succubus, thought so in his heart, and said at the same time, "It seems that the owner of the mage tower has noticed us. β
"Hmm." Next to the protagonist succubus, the uncle with missing ears nodded: "Moreover, the master seems to be very enthusiastic...... I'm one of my favorite mages with these enthusiastic mages. As he said this, he stuck out his tongue and licked it on his lips. A look of eagerness.
"Hey, hey, captain." Xiao Bai on the other side lowered his voice and said, "Uncle still looks very excited...... You said he was excited to meet the Dark Elves, who were old enemies. But now it looks ...... Are mages and elves rivals? β
"Who knows......" The protagonist succubus is also a little strange: "Maybe the uncle has a grudge against a certain mage, so the hatred has expanded." β
"But Xiaoqian is also a mage. And when he was in the abyss, the uncle must have faced the mage a lot, right? Xiaobai then retorted.
ββ¦β¦ Well. Saying this......" The protagonist succubus nodded: "Find a chance, I'll talk to my uncle." β
Even as they spoke, Yulia also walked up to the mage tower, raised her head and shouted, "Uncle Mars! It's me. Yulia! Behind me are my companions, and we hope to be able to go back to the surface through the portal you control! β
After she had shouted this, another moment passed. The gem at the top of the Mage's Tower stopped moving. After a few more moments, the door to the Mage's Tower opened. A middle-aged man dressed in pale gold mage robes walked out.
"Age...... It is impossible to estimate. Both the eyebrows, the hair, and the beard are pure white. But looking at his appearance, he is middle-aged...... However, because he is a mage, it is also possible that he has used some methods to delay aging. The protagonist succubus thought to himself.
And then. The middle-aged mage seemed to sense the gaze of the main character's succubus, and immediately turned his head to look at him, smiling and nodding his head.
"Very good, young man."
"Uncle Mars." Yulia, who usually has a lot of quirks, looks respectful when facing this mage named Mars. It could be seen that she respected this mage very much, or rather feared him.
After this. Mage Mars also smiled gently at Yulia, and then nodded slightly. Then he looked at the main character's succubus.
Mars paused when he saw Uncle Missing. Then he opened his mouth, and finally couldn't help but ask:
"Your Excellency...... Have we ever met? β
"Nope." The attitude of the uncle who lacks ears is very stiff.
"Really...... But...... Your Excellency is indeed very much like a man I know, he, like Your Excellency, is also a Golden Elf Warrior, and his name seems to beβ"
"-That's enough!" Uncle Missing Ears interrupted Mars: "Don't say it's useless. Shut up, Mage! β
"Uncle. Do we still have a request for others...... Hey, hey, hey......" Next to the uncle with missing ears, Xiaobai was a little anxious. I wanted to persuade my uncle to give in. But before that, he was stopped by the protagonist succubus.
"The old gentleman." The main character, the succubus, says, "My companion doesn't want to discuss this topic with you. So, can you please stop? Although I don't know what relationship there is between you. However, it is hoped that you will be able to respect the wishes of the person concerned. β
"Oh...... Oh. Mars smiled again: "Nothing. It's me who lost my temper. And...... It's also unlikely...... I'm so sorry, this elven warrior. I apologize to you. After he finished speaking, he bowed slightly to the uncle who lacked ears. The uncle, who lacked ears, also reluctantly saluted him, but did not speak.
Seeing this scene, several people on the sidelines breathed a sigh of relief. It's really nice not to fight - looking at Marles like this, you know that he is not easy to mess with. What's more. He also has his mage tower support. It's not as simple as one plus one equals two. Even if the main character's succubus team is full of talents, it is no joke to have a painful battle with a mage who does not know the depths of his mage tower.
"Fortunately, this mage has a good temper." Xiaobai stroked his chest while talking to himself.
"Good temper?" Yulia repeated this when she heard this. With a face, "Xiaobai, you deserve to be Xiaobai, you are really naΓ―ve." What kind of legendary mage can have a good temper? Expression. Xiaobai couldn't help but swallow his saliva.
"So, please come in. Welcome to my Mage's Tower. Ladies and gentlemen. Mars then invited.
"Well, excuse me." The main character, the succubus, as the leader of the team, agrees to the invitation of Master Mars on behalf of everyone.
"Very well, please come here."
Mars nodded, then reached out and introduced the Righteous Adventurers to his mage tower. The moment they entered the door, everyone was ushered into the couch in the living room. After this, the invisible servants brought black tea and snacks. At Mars's motion, the five-man group gave it a try.
"It tastes surprisingly good." Xiaobai replied in surprise.
"Hehehe...... Young people, just like it. Mars said with a smile.
"Hmm-" Xiaobai nodded vigorously, then reached out again and grabbed the plate of dim sum.
Before that, though, he was hit back by the elbow of the main character's succubus. After this, the main character, the succubus, looked at the mage Mars very seriously and said:
"Thank you for your hospitality. Mr. Mars. But before that, can we talk about business? β
Mars continued to maintain a gentle smile and replied, "There is no hurry, young man. But if you really want to, it's not impossible. (To be continued......)
