Chapter 556: The True Magician Tower! (Commuter pass plus update!) )
The valley was very wide, at least the size of Alice's Lindong City.
At this time, many tents were erected in the valley, and at least a thousand people gathered.
Of course, it wasn't the tents and the crowds that caught Gervais's attention, but the elaborate palace buildings that dotted in the middle of the valley.
And in the center of this palace building is a tall tower, which is not like the towers of China on Earth.
It is truly cut and made of special and precious stones, and is surrounded by six stout stone pillars that are half low.
Gervais visually inspected that the tower was at least 100 meters high, and the six stone pillars were at least 30 meters high.
Both the tower and the six surrounding stone pillars were inscribed with dense runes, all of which shone with a gray-black light, which represented the color of the necromancer's magical powers.
In addition, the most eye-catching thing is the top of the tower, which is the real reason why Gervais is stunned.
I saw a huge ball of energy light suspended at the top of the tower, just like those energy towers in the previous game.
It's just that at this time, Gervais has seen it with his own eyes, and the scale of this mage tower is even larger.
At this time, the gray-black ball of light suspended at the top of the tower was constantly absorbing the magic power between heaven and earth, and its diameter reached at least five or six meters......
As it continued to inhale magical power, the surface of the energy ball would expand and shrink rhythmically, and float up and down, all the while repeating itself like a black hole devouring magical power.
I don't know if it was to stabilize the energy ball or if it was used for other purposes, but the six stone pillars around the tower were connected to a thick iron chain, which had been derived into the energy light ball.
"How's that, it's shocking, isn't it? Harry, this is humanity's greatest wonder, the Wizard's Tower! ”
At this moment, Ratchet had broken away from Gervais's phrase "the crimson moon appears, and the orc cataclysm" has changed.
Seeing Gervais stunned and looking at the Wizard Tower in the distance, Ratchet did not urge to continue walking, but just stood in place, looking at the magnificent tower and asking Gervais.
"It's really impressive! This is the first time I've seen a real Wizard's Tower! It's even more majestic than I imagined! ”
Gervais told the truth, he originally had preconceived ideas, and thought that the Wizard Tower was just like the tower of the Huaguo in the previous life, gorgeous and exquisite, and used to make the Wizard live a life without shame.
But I didn't expect that the real magician tower was such a fantasy energy tower, although it was a little less exquisite and luxurious, but that kind of majestic momentum, no matter who the strength did not reach a certain level, they would be in awe after seeing it.
"Let's go! Harry! We're almost done, let's go back to the tent first! ”
"I'll show you enough when I'm rested, and the magic array in the palace in front of me should be broken in two days after tomorrow, and then we can take a closer look at the majesty of this magician tower!"
"Such an opportunity is rare even in the Alliance High Academy, although the Elders of the Academy also have a few magicians, but they can have the financial resources and resources to build their own mage tower, there are only one or two, and few people can usually enter there to watch the tower."
Feeling that it was almost time to stop and watch, Ratchey was worried that Adele would wait a long time, so he opened his mouth to urge Gervais.
Gervais nodded, then withdrew his gaze and walked with the others again.
He really needs to rest now, he doesn't dare to stay where he is for too long these days, he is on the road day and night, for fear that Lolita's woman will chase after him.
Soon, led by Ratchey, Gervais came to a camp with only seven or eight tents, and looked at the number of guards around him, and Gervais couldn't help frowning.
That's more than half as many as they did when they left.
Perhaps seeing Gervais's expression, Ratchey explained to Gervais: "Although we escaped the pursuit of that wave of orcs because of your resistance that time, we encountered a lot of orcs chasing one after another, so we sacrificed most of our guards one after another. ”
"Fortunately, we also met more adventurers at that time, and we all traveled together, and finally came to the valley of this magician tower!"
Gervais nodded, and didn't say anything more, the corpses on the road were proof of the danger of Ratchey's journey.
Next, Rage led Gervais to the campfire inside the camp.
I don't know if it was Rakhi's intention to protect it, or if it was luck, the two cooks in the group turned out to be intact.
The two cooks began to get busy under the command of Lachey, and soon roasted several catties of fragrant barbecued meat.
Gervais was not polite, and began to feast in the company of Adele, Ratchey, and others.
At the same time, they also talked about the Wizard Tower or the Necromancer.
In the chat, Gervais finally learns why Adella, the daughter, would come to the Wizard's Tower to adventure in person.
It turns out that this Wizard's Tower is likely to be the Wizard's Tower of the famous genius necromancer Neam Wizard in history.
This Neam Magus is arguably the most gifted necromancer in more than a thousand years.
He became a Magus at a young age of thirty, and had his own Wizard Tower around the age of fifty.
Not only is he powerful, but he also likes to specialize in all aspects of necromancy.
Not only has a lot of necromantic magic been improved to make it more powerful, but it has also cultivated the heart of the undead.
Under normal circumstances, most dark creatures have relatively low IQs, such as undead skeletons, which rely on instinct, and only a few high-level skeletons have a little intelligence.
However, it is said that the heart of the undead cultivated by the Wizard of Neam is able to gradually acquire consciousness and think after even the lowest gray skeleton has possessed it.
Don't underestimate that.
Take the group of skeleton soldiers that Gervais met under the moonlight fruit tree, if the red skeleton mage did not have intelligence, then it would appear in front of everyone at the first time, and there was no possibility of sneaking up on Adella.
All it takes is one or two fireballs, and Gervais and they can wipe it out.
But it was precisely because the skeleton mage had a little wisdom and knew how to ambush and sneak attack, that they finally made their group pay the price of a golden knight.
And one of the purposes of Adele's visit this time was to see if she could find a way to cultivate this undead heart.
Another purpose was to see if there were any psychic potions in the palace in the middle of the valley.
