Chapter 1216: Tower of Radiance, Inheritance Farce
As for Scum, he didn't get involved too much, on the one hand, to avoid suspicion, after all, this incident happened in the Gilles Tower, and on the other hand, it was also with the help of the Seven Towers.
His main task is to stay in the Gilstall Tower and continue to summon Thorne, and if Thorne can be contacted, many questions may be answered.
After the Seven Towers had assigned their tasks, Skum looked at the only non-Seven Towers presence present, "Lord Iorem, there's something that needs your help as well. ”
"Please?" Iolem didn't refuse, and he could even guess what was going on.
"Lord Eorem is asked to determine Lord Shado's role in this matter! If this matter had nothing to do with him, it was a complete accident, and the Seven Towers would not have let a senior arcanist take on anything extra; But if this matter has anything to do with him, then even a senior arcanist, he must pay the price he deserves! ”
"Yes."
"Then I'm sorry for you."
After that, the people of the Seven Towers quickly split up, and Iolem left the Gilstall Tower and returned to the Arcane Federation.
……
Cliff Collar.
Located in the eastern part of the core area of Nesser, after Cliff became the Grand Arcanist, the Council of Severington took the initiative to allocate him a territory due to his special status.
It was originally the domain of a lord in the Gennik Tower's faction, but was stripped of his territory due to the lord's undead creation of undead while resisting the orc invasion.
The area of this territory is not large, it can even be said to be small, especially for a Grand Arcanist, but in the core area where the land has long been carved up, it is not easy to have such a territory.
What's even more rare is that Cliff Territory has a total of six large and small mage towers, which is a huge asset for any spellcaster.
And now, on an ordinary night at the end of the snowmelt moon, a sudden change of events makes this great wealth, which has not yet been inherited, even more moving.
Tower of Radiance.
The main tower at the heart of Lord Cliff is also a mage tower built by Cliff's Grand Arcanist himself and lived in for a long time.
Compared with the general mage towers, which are mostly cylindrical structures, this mage tower is quite unusual-
Its main body is made up of three large rectangles stacked on top of each other, the largest below and the smallest above, and above the smallest of the cuboids, there is an extremely tall, extremely pointed obelisk.
At the top of the obelisk, which is three times the height of the main body, is a huge emblem of the Lord of Light, a golden sun with a coronal halo on the edge.
But tonight, the Tower of Radiance doesn't seem to be so bright, and a farce of feud over a vast unclaimed wealth is playing out in the midst of it.
In a golden hall, where the vast majority of the high-level casters of the Tower of Radiance were concentrated, a golden-robed mage had a look on his face, but he said with a firm look in his eyes:
"The tower spirit is gone, the teacher is missing, as the rotating director of the Tower of Radiance this month, I, Mars, have the responsibility and obligation to re-establish order for you."
But as soon as his words fell, another mage on the other side immediately retorted: "This month is only the last two days, after this month, is it going to be replaced by Vernal?" ”
Hearing this, Mars did not panic at all, he swept his gaze from everyone one by one, and then said lightly:
"The tower spirit is gone, and there will be no transfer of authority to the Tower of Radiance even next month, I would like to let Vernal come, but can he?"
As soon as these words were spoken, before the one who had refuted before spoke, another golden-robed mage stood up: "It's not up to you to decide whether it's okay or not, the ten of us can nominate a real person in charge and give him authority!" ”
"Then you do it! Why not do it? ”
A hint of disdain flashed in Mars's eyes, after the disappearance of the tower spirit, the authority of the Tower of Radiance could indeed be granted by the golden-robed mages, but this also meant that the promoter gave up the possibility of his own inheritance.
The people who can stand here and argue with him, if it weren't for the slightest possibility of inheritance, why would they come here, they would have already made a choice.
"Vernal, what does it mean for the tower spirit to disappear, I think you should know better than me, now I have the highest authority in the Tower of Light, if you support me, then we will re-establish order as quickly as possible, even if we can't inherit the complete territory in the future, at least this Tower of Light can be preserved."
In the face of Mars's wooing, Vernal was silent, and just when everyone thought that Vernal was about to bow his head, there was a sudden sound of hurried footsteps outside the hall, and a young mage with a panicked face broke in:
"Oh no, my lords, the Seven Towers are here, and they are coming, they are coming-"
Before he could finish speaking, a tall and sturdy figure suddenly appeared in the hall out of thin air, and the young mage's words had just spoken, but in this case, his voice was probably only heard by himself:
"It's the Grand Arcanist of Badigar from Gustav's Tower!"
"Grand Arcanist of Badigar?"
Seeing the person coming, Mars's face immediately changed, as the actual supreme authority after the disappearance of the Tower of Radiance, he has the greatest possibility of inheriting the Tower of Radiance, but the premise is that there are other variables that exceed expectations.
There is no doubt that the appearance of Badigarh is something he never expected.
However, inside the Mage Tower, even if the Tower of Radiance had lost its spirit at this moment, Mars didn't feel much fear, just worried about the inheritance.
"Good night, Lord Badigar, I am Mars, the rotating director of the Shining Tower, and the Shining Tower welcomes you. But you didn't notice at all, and even broke into our important meeting, which is not the attitude of the Seven Towers. Mars said without humility or arrogance.
In fact, he regretted it in his heart, if he had known that Badigar would appear, he would definitely block the teleportation circle in advance.
Of course, if he blocked the teleportation circle in advance, it might cause even more chaos, and maybe he would be out of the game.
In this situation, he could only hope that the Seven Towers would not interfere in the internal inheritance affairs of the Tower of Radiance, but seeing Badigar's solemn expression, Mars couldn't help but have a bad premonition in his heart.
"You're all here, time is urgent, I'll just say it bluntly, Cliff Archarcanist has had some accident during the astral exploration, the Council of Severynton takes this very seriously, and is investigating this matter, I need you to temporarily block the Tower of Radiance, forbid anyone to leave, and prohibit any news from spreading."
Badigarh was quick to say what he wanted, and then stared at the people in the hall, especially Mars, who was the leader.
His words didn't cause much commotion in the hall, on the one hand, everyone was at least a high-level mage and their mentality was quite stable, and on the other hand, due to the disappearance of the tower spirit, everyone had actually expected it a long time ago.
The only question is whether or not to block the Tower of Radiance, and is this considered the Seven Towers interfering in internal affairs?
It is not known what the rest of the crowd thinks, but Mars was overjoyed when he heard Badigar's request.
"Maybe we can take this opportunity to let others make a decision sooner!"
In this case, who else is there to be?
Mars immediately agreed to Badigarh's request.
