No. 205 Odd

The female knight did not choose to change her appearance. According to her, this face has only been seen by a very few people in the first place, which in itself is equivalent to a change of identity.

In fact, Richard thinks this statement is a bit strange: because the number of people who know the true identity of this person is very small, if it is exposed, it will be very unusual, isn't it?

After all, the characters involved are either powerful popes or super-high-level beings who can cast miracle-level spells.

But seeing that Joan was so persistent, and that he didn't seem to be unaware of this, he didn't ask any further.

Although they had only fought each other once, and the time spent with each other was brief, Richard was impressed by the female knight's character, and he believed that the other party would not be the type to leave a flaw due to carelessness.

"-I thought it would be too wasteful for the Black Tower to be used as a place to house wandering wizards."

Seeing that Richard was in a daze, he didn't speak, and seemed to have acquiesced to the remarks of "starting from the magic tower to conquer the world", so he continued with a smile.

"Obviously with such great mobility and protection, coupled with the fact that as one of the world's largest gathering places for wizards, it is rare to see military mages in secular kingdoms, but here you can pull out a batch of them as a source of troops anytime and anywhere, it is simply a giant mobile battery that is incredibly powerful, but has an insurmountable range advantage - if it can appear on the battlefield, it is undoubtedly an invincible killing weapon. It's a pity that generations of Steppenwolf haven' failed to recognize this. ”

Richard glanced at her. I didn't expect this girl to have this war maniac-like side.

"Now that the Tower of Babel has relocated their base to Earth, it is no longer a true wizard's tower: it has an entire kingdom to back it up, but it has also lost its power."

"And the White Tower suspended in the sea of clouds is a loose group of more than thirty wizard towers united, and in terms of individual protection performance, firepower and action, it is actually inferior to the magic tower......"

"In fact, at present, even if it is the same 'Three Towers of the Stars', in fact, only the Black Tower can maintain such an astonishing architectural scale, and even the Tower of Babel, which has a longer history and has been in operation for more than 2,000 years, has been showing signs of the main structure falling off and falling due to its excessive weight since more than a hundred years ago - this is also the reason why the Council of the Sages is anxious to find a partner to join forces to attack the land and the country together. As a result, they ended up looking for heretics who had broken away from the Holy See. ”

Richard nodded frequently when he heard this, and felt that she was indeed very reasonable, but when she asked, she realized that she really had the idea of beating the magic tower early-

From the moment Joan's father revealed his intention to take action against the magic tower to the higher-ups, the female knight had the intention of taking the magic tower as a war fortress.

Should I say that she is worthy of being the biological daughter of a world-famous careerist, this kind of thinking loop makes people don't know how to complain for a while.

As for the reason for the existence of the Magic Tower's superiority in this regard......

"I'm afraid it's because of the existence of the Spark Furnace."

Richard thought to himself.

Now he can confirm that the Starfire Furnace is also one of the "artifacts" - I am afraid that it is the legacy left by the ancient sun god Sun Tyrant who fell in the eternal war.

When he was accepting Joan's allegiance, he had personally taken over the Divine Annihilation, and found a line of engraved font on the face of the sword, which was more like a ceremonial instrument.

Joan said that this phrase means "who is the Lord of hosts", which is a phrase used in the sacred scriptures to praise the angels of war. But he couldn't understand that it didn't seem to belong to any kingdom, region, nation, or even race in the Mayan world.

Richard also noticed that the font was actually changing slightly, and every once in a while, the outlines and strokes of each character would change; After a while, it will even become very different from before.

...... Is there really such a writing in this world? If so, how does it correspond to a fixed language?

Above all, the basic function of the written word is to transmit it between groups as a carrier of ideas and culture, and this kind of writing is a complete obstacle to communication.

Instinctively, however, Richard felt a little familiar. This line of words and the "all things come from the fire" he saw in the spark seem to belong to the same language system.

At the time, he was equally incomprehensible; But although he couldn't understand it, the content of this text was as if it was directly in his mind.

The female knight's answer to this was that the content engraved with "Divine Annihilation" was the corresponding text called "Angel's Word"-

Yes, it is known as one of the "highest achievements in the wizarding world", known as the "Psychic Crown Orb", and I heard that only one of the ten crown families, the Edward wizard family, who is good at sΓ©ance, has mastered some of the interpretation methods.

"At present, not to mention mastering the basic rules such as the grammatical composition of angelic language, even the written content recorded in history is rare." "The only thing that can be known is that only the owner of the artifact, or those involved, can understand the words written by the Angel's Language, but they also have no way of understanding the meaning of the font of other artifacts that have nothing to do with themselves. ”

In short, for some reason, every artifact will naturally emerge with the corresponding text engraved with "Angel's Language"; On the contrary, it can also be used as a basis for judging whether it is an artifact.

"Divine Annihilation" is a "liberation language" that can only be understood by the leaders and leader candidates of the ruling families of the Kingdom of Esperia in the past generations; The text of the Starfire Furnace needs to be one of the "Steppenwolf" before you can realize its connotation.

......

Seeing that Joan was still talking, Richard couldn't help but sigh and couldn't help but interrupt.

"My knight, I think you have other questions to ask."

β€œβ€¦β€¦ Sorry, it was me who lost my temper. ”

Beneath the hood, a faint flush appeared on the female knight's cheeks, and she coughed lightly and replied.

"Definitely. I just want to know β€”β€”."

At this point, the two of them were almost at the door of this lawless city.

"My lord, why did you come to such a place?"

"I'll have to ask my students."

There was a hint of dissatisfaction in the black-robed wizard's tone.

"Do you value this student?"

Joan keenly picked up some clues from his words and asked with a smile.

……

Richard did not answer immediately.

It suddenly occurred to him that if the female knight knew about Verlit's identity as the heir to the inheritance of the "Tyrant of the Sun" god, she would probably be even more convinced that she was the reincarnation of the Demon Emperor Bafont.

After all, the former sun god was the most trusted comrade-in-arms and subordinate of the "Head of All Evils".

Richard, who realized this, couldn't help but doubt even himself-

Is this really a coincidence? Or is it the so-called "guidance of fate"?
