PS: I wish couples a happy Chinese Valentine's Day, if there are no couples, read like me, there is a golden house in the book, and Yan Ruyu in the book...... Forget it, the more you talk about it, the sadder it becomes. Ask for a monthly pass in the middle of the month~

Trying to shake her mood away from the old witch's strength and the vaguely aware truth behind the matter, Karina asked Lucien with a polite smile: "What about you, sir, are you also a legendary powerhouse?" But none of those famous mid-level magicians match your image. ”

Karina, who has a good background and successfully became a magician, has always been a proud and confident girl, but Adam is a "legend" outside the magic tower, with strong strength and fierce style, and even with Lucien, a prisoner who seems to have the same status as him, has become a legendary powerhouse in the eyes of Karina and others, and has to deal with it politely.

Lucien smiled and shook his head, "I'm just a magician with no reputation, not a legendary figure, and I only came a day before you. You may call me Lucian. ”

"A day earlier, Mr. Lucien, you're not from our family?" Ophelia, the tall, beautiful girl, looked at Lucian in a little surprise, and Alva, Brad, and Karina had the same expression.

Their eyes always gave Lucien the illusion that he had become a rare beast in the zoo, surrounded by humans outside the iron railing, so the corners of his mouth turned up slightly: "Haven't you seen outsiders?

Perhaps realizing that her inquisitive eyes were too hot, Karina smiled embarrassedly with a flush of shame, "I'm sorry. Mr. Lucien, we really haven't seen outsiders. Although many long-established families have stories of ancestors who came from the outside world and were trapped here and could not get out, for hundreds of years, the people of cities and villages have multiplied, fought with the beasts around them, fought monsters, and gradually developed and grew, but they have never encountered outsiders. ”

Adam laughed beside him, "Actually, it's always been, but it's only when it's swallowed up on a large scale." A small percentage of outsiders will choose to hide their identities first. Blending into human society, like me, many outsiders were either killed by monsters in the forest or caught directly by the old witch. For example, Lucien, the hapless guy. ”

"Old witch?" Karina, Alva, Ophelia, and Brad stepped away from Adam almost at the same time.

He dared to call the owner of the magic tower an old witch directly? He and the others only dared to curse like this in their hearts! Although he was domineering and domineering before. But now he is not also a prisoner. Aren't you afraid that the old witch will arrest him, punish him severely, or even kill him?

When Adam saw them dodging monsters, he knew they were worried about being implicated. With a wry smile, he spread his hands: "It's okay, the old witch never cares what we say, she only cares about her experiments and appearance, don't you see that they don't react?" he said a few servants guarding the prisoners.

Seeing Adam's eyes aimed at himself and the others, the red-faced servant glared back fiercely: "Adam, if you discuss this matter again, I will beat you with a whip!"

He didn't dare to report the title of "old witch" to the witch, legend has it that a long time ago, a servant was eager to make a meritorious service, and reported to the witch that there were experimental materials secretly calling her the old witch, but the witch repeated "old witch" several times in a cold voice between her teeth, and then put to death all those who said the word, whether prisoners or servants.

The reaction of the servants dispelled the concerns of Karina and the others, and they all sighed: "Mr. Adam, you turned out to be an outsider, no wonder you have such a strong strength as soon as you appear. In this way, the gentlemen like you should also be outsiders. ”

Then, a strong curiosity surged into their hearts, and Brad, the young knight, could not help asking, "Mr. Adam, Mr. Lucian, what is the outside world like? Are there those poems and stories that are so beautiful? Are there many strong men who are no worse than witches?"

Adam pointed to Lucien next to him, who was thoughtful: "I've been in a forbidden place for decades, and I don't know much about the situation outside, so let's let Lucien tell you." ”

Several servants not far away stopped talking to each other and focused on Lucian, they were equally curious about the outside world, and life in the magic tower was extremely boring, so it was nice to hear the story.

Lucien thought about the things worth paying attention to from Karina's words just now, and said casually: "I don't know how many times bigger than the outside world is here, not only the dark and terrifying Black Forest, but also the green and emerald lakes, the towering peaks, the golden and harvest plains, the crowded and bustling cities, and the buildings floating in the sky......"

Although it is only a rough description, the scenery that is completely different from this place still makes Karina and the others listen to it with relish, especially the city in the sky, the magic steam train that can run to the sky, the completely unimaginable form of the magic council, and the incredible alchemy life, which makes them yearn for it even more.

"There are so many wonderful places in this world, and there is actually a city in the sky. Karina stared at the Silver Moon in mid-air, as if it was hard to believe that a city could fly there, and then she asked more enthusiastically than her companions, "Mr. Lucien, I wonder how powerful the Magic Council is?"

Lucien looked at the several floors of the magic tower above the terrace, and said in a calm tone: "Magicians like the old witch can be found everywhere in the Magic Council. ”

"You can see ...... everywhere" Even Adam was shocked by Lucian's description, he had the impression that high-level magicians and heavenly knights were rare no matter where they were, and no matter how powerful the Magic Council was, it wouldn't allow a middle-level magician to meet a high-level at any time, right?

Lucien laughed, "I'm telling the truth, at least for me. "Of course, the premise is to be able to obtain the Holm Crown Ring like me, and be recognized by the higher echelons of the Elemental Will.

Then, Lucien emphasized, "And there are many magicians who are ten, hundred, and a thousand times more powerful than her. ”

"Really?" Karina felt that this was beyond her imagination, and she and Alva and the others looked at Lucien with more awe and trust.

Seeing the deliberate flaunting of the power of the Magic Council succeeds in making the desperate prisoners vaguely see themselves as objects to follow. Lucien nodded with satisfaction, looked at several servants, and said "arrogantly": "I fell into the Forbidden Land this time because I sent a message to the Dark Mountains for a certain Excellency, maybe it won't be long before someone will come to save me." In front of the legendary magician, the old witch is like an ant, pinching it to death as much as she wants. ”

The old witch was almost insane, and she was trapped here and couldn't get out, and she didn't worry about the legendary magician at all, but her servants were still normal. After hearing Lucian's words of "the spirit of the king is wild". Their faces changed slightly.

Lucien didn't continue to show off, because empty words are difficult to be believed, so it is better to stop appropriately and let the servants, Karina, and others use their imagination to fill in the gap. And they don't need to really believe it. As long as it can leave that impression in their minds. It is enough to interfere with their judgment and decision at a critical moment, and it is the icing on the cake anyway.

"Legendary magicians, how powerful are they?" asked Karina, a magician, almost instinctively.

Adam replied for Lucian, "It can easily destroy this magic tower." Destroy nearby cities, villages, and surrounding dark forests......"

He had never seen the legend make a move, and he answered according to his imagination, startling Karina and the others again, making the servants look a little flickering.

After a moment of silence, Karina looked at Lucien with a burning passion for the Magic Council and the legendary magician: "Mr. Lucian, how many rings are you?

Lucien sighed softly: "Don't call me sir, we are all prisoners, there is no distinction between high and low." I'm just one of the many mid-level magicians in the Magic Council, and I'm still a long way from the high-level, so I really don't have anything to be proud of, and the old witch probably has seven rings, or eight rings. "It's enough to reveal the strength of the middle rank, there is no need to reveal the specific level.

"Intermediate mage, you are really a mid-level mage!" Karina was pleasantly surprised, in this region where resources and knowledge are seriously deficient, mid-level mages are very rare, and it is even more difficult to be promoted than the big knights, so after confirming that Lucien is a mid-level mage, Karina, a girl who is interested in the path of magic, is like Alva, Brad, Ophelia and others who showed reverence and enthusiasm when they saw Adam.

But Ophelia, Alva and the others couldn't help but take a few steps back, and said with a pale face: "The old witch has seven or eight rings?"

The strength of Karina's second-ring magician, they can see for all to see, how strong will the seventh-eight-ring magician be? Why is she hiding in the magic tower and not ruling the nearby territory?

Seeing that they seemed to have some guesses, Adam nodded in affirmation: "The old witch is not interested in domination, only crazy about magic and experiments, and those rumors about the magic tower are spread by her." ”

The curtain of light that shrouded her past life was ruthlessly lifted, revealing the darkness and despair beneath her, and Karina quickly descended from the joy of meeting a mid-level magician into an abyss that seemed to end forever.

"Are we just lambs in captivity?" Ophelia asked herself, a little struggling and desperate, not seeing any hope in life.

Lucien ignored their confusion and directly asked the question that had just come to mind: "When did the legend about the Magic Tower appear, and when did the magician and knight first disappear?"

"About 500 years ago. Karina replied uncertainly.

Lucien didn't ask, just speculated: "The old witch fell into a place of confinement before the establishment of the Magic Council? Then she may not know the arcane arts, if she can be her assistant and show her a few 'magical' experiments, she may directly blow her head off." However, the old witch was not mentally sane, and it was difficult to communicate and arouse her interest, so it was important to do something else. ”

For Lucien, the most important thing at the moment is to get rid of the Forbidden Bracelet and the Forbidden Demon Collar, and the easiest way to do without mental power and blood power is to find a place where the anti-magic array is arranged, as long as you enter, these two magic items will be useless. It's a pity that so far, Lucien has not found the anti-magic field in the magic tower, so he can only think of other ways.

After exchanging some more information, Karina and the others' mood gradually stabilized, anyway, they were all caught as experimental materials, no matter how bad they were, and with Lucien, a mid-level magician with a scary "identity background", they inevitably had some hope.

............

Two days later, while Lucien was still digging with his fingernails for the stone bricks on the right wall, the old witch uncharacteristically sent someone to take him to the magic laboratory.

Along the way, Lucien carefully observed the flesh puppet knights guarding the key positions and the sharp and bright giant axes and swords in their hands.

The door to the laboratory opened from the inside, and Lucien saw Ophelia tied to the dissecting table, while the old witch was beside her, holding a pitch-black mirror and looking at her shriveled and wrinkled face, chanting a strange incantation: "The Magic Mirror tells me, who is the most beautiful woman in the world?"

"Huh?" Lucien, who almost sang along, felt more and more weird. (To be continued......)
