Chapter 969: The Real Ankazan
In the central area of the Faeron plane, in the territory of the Gray Rain Country, the majestic and magnificent fiery red magic tower is showing its transcendent status for thousands of years, this is a real legendary magic tower, although the maker did not give it too much height and too broad area, but the tower body made of legendary level alchemy materials is still shining in the sun, even if the background of the gray rain country in the cold winter is as dark and obscure as ever, and the weather is oppressive, but the red magic tower is still like a torch in the center of the small imperial kingdom。
The meaning of this magical tower is not just a war machine, it is the most solid fortress and residence of the old legendary mage "Scorcher" - Ankazan-Yanmei, it also symbolizes the absolute control of the Mage Guild over the Gray Rain Country, and it also represents that in the "center of the Faeron plane", the place where the forces gather, the Mage Guild is the basic façade of the order.
If someone dares to make a move against Ankazan, the legendary protector of the Grey Rain Country, then this kind of behavior is tantamount to directly declaring war on the Mage Guild, because the brave challenger is not only challenging another powerful legendary professional, but also challenging the majesty and control of the Mage Guild, which claims to be the "strongest legendary organization in the multiverse".
Actually, though...... The so-called "maintenance of order" is just talking.
In fact, the reason why Ankazan-Yanmei has been in the Gray Rain Country for so many years is more because the Mage Guild wants to be self-righteous and put on a show, after all, this era is an era of "legendary islands", and the confrontations between forces are almost all about verbal abuse and slander, and under normal circumstances, no one will be idle and have nothing to do but compete with the Mage Guild for the meaningless name of "order maintainer", so Ankazan and his magic tower have never experienced any enemy challenges since the construction was completed......
After all, according to many people's speculation, this "shelf" of the Mage Guild is simply the appearance of Mesul's posing in order to facilitate his cooperation with the gods of the good camp, and now that the Mage Guild and the Pantheon have reached an "unbreakable (on the surface)" alliance, the order of the Gray Rain Country has long been forgotten by the archmage of the day.
"Anyway, even in a few million years, no one will challenge the so-called "façade of the Mage's Guild", and Ankazan has actually no tasks to complete in this white magic tower under the name of the so-called "Guardian of Order", and his daily life is no different from that of most ordinary hermit legendary mages."
This is the pertinent evaluation given by Bill "Limans" Flying Blade, a legendary ranger who lives in the Hero Imperial Kingdom around the Grey Rain Country, and it is also an evaluation that Ankazan himself agrees with.
Ankazan is actually a legend of the hermitage faction, and many people don't think that the "burner" who is rumored to be "hot-tempered" is actually a mage in the neutral camp, who has never been given much resources to study, and has never had any intention of going out to cause trouble.
In fact, Ankazan, as a combat-savvy spellcaster, doesn't like to fight and kill at all, and the last time he traveled to the Shadow Plane was to rescue his "companions" rather than fight his enemies - the "Scorcher" can be proud to be sure that he has never left the Tower for the purpose of fighting or killing, although events have always turned out more than expected...... But Ankazan, who admires pacifism, has never forgotten his true heart, even after being a legend for so many years.
For example, at this moment, the middle-aged mage wearing a fiery red robe and carrying a large jar of high-quality wine left the magic tower with no one in order to start a war with anyone, he just wanted to catch up with his best friends who he hadn't seen for many years.
The knowledge, magic tower, and magic equipment possessed by this old-fashioned old mage were all given by the head of the mage guild "Mesur", and he was assigned the task of "staying in the magic tower of the Grey Rain Country and not going out too often", in this boring life called "façade" is actually "seclusion", Ankazan's main interest is not to be an overseer of order and fight everywhere, but to drink and chat with his old friends, in addition to the desire to learn new knowledge like most ordinary spellcasters.
I don't talk about academics or cooperation, but I just talk about all kinds of interesting things and the loneliness of 10,000 years of accumulation............
You must know that although the central area of the Faeron plane is called the "center", its area is still very vast and huge, including Ankazan, there are six legendary professionals living here, but only the "Limang's Flying Blade", who likes to travel around and visit friends, has seen a few of his "neighbors", since this ranger who likes to make friends and Anka, who came to the Gray Rain Country to build a magic tower, have become friends, and they have never changed their "habit" to get together every twenty or thirty thousand years and drink a few glasses of wine.
On a sunny morning, the wine made by the "Burner" using his own method was finally finished, and the middle-aged mage, who always had a straight face, was eager to taste it for his friend.
After tasting Bill's "Sword Spirit" last time, Ankazan has actually always wanted to invent a spirit of his own, anyway, the "order keeper" who has not received any materials or knowledge from the Mage Guild for a long time is not capable of carrying out any magical research, the "archmage" Mesur, who has not been heard from for a long time, has not given any new instructions, and the "burner" who has an empty warehouse of magic materials has too much leisure time and energy to turn himself into an outstanding "brewmaster".
As a result, Ankazan, who has filled the skill tree with "alcoholic beverage making ability", has spent tens of thousands of years seriously researching winemaking technology, and he has even single-handedly promoted the development of the alcohol industry in the entire Gray Rain Country.
Finally, when the intoxicating aroma of the wine came out, the "burner" also gave the jar he was carrying the name of "fire throat", after all, it was the first successful wine he had made by himself.
At the same time, according to friendly practice, the "burner" also carefully marked the name of the drink on the outermost side of the jar, and then generously took the jar directly and began to fly in the direction of the Hérault Imperial Kingdom.
Although Bill Cayton is an old friend, this gesture of friendship will always be indispensable in Ankazan's eyes.
In many ways, the spellcaster of the Order camp has always followed a rigid set of aristocratic etiquette - when a "colleague" is in trouble, he will "obliged" to go to the rescue, the last time he drank a friend's good wine, the next party will return with the same quality of wine, as a legendary member of the Mage Guild, Ankazan, who actually does not know what the Mage Guild is doing, also obeyed the orders of his "boss" Mesur not to inquire too much............
All in all, the "Scorcher" is by no means as self-motivated as he appears to be, and the anger he shows in front of his enemies is not his true face, and this life-loving, lonely spellcaster is just a rigid old aristocrat at heart, and it is enough for him to be able to fulfill his duties and enjoy a life of courtesy.
