Gallows Square, as soon as Wang entered the square, he saw the gallows erected in the middle.

What surprised Wang the most was that this gallows actually blended perfectly into the scenery of the square, making you feel that there should be a gallows in such a mixed place, and nothing else was suitable.

The gallows still hung the prisoners who had been executed this week, and a flock of crows stopped at the top of the gallows as if no one was around, guarding their "big meal".

A new crow tries to join them, but is beaten up by a group of crows and walks away.

The king frowned at the crow that had flown away, and did not withdraw his gaze until it was out of sight.

Mark also noticed his actions and asked, "That can't be your pet, right?" The crow. ”

"yes."

"Why the crow? Don't mages usually use bats, cats, or salamanders as magic pets? ”

Wang: "The crow pet can speak. ”

Mark: "That's it? ”

"Yes."

The swordsman had an expression of disbelief, but he suddenly turned around and yelled at the wanderer who didn't know when he came over: "Get out! Jim, your sheepdog, is going to nod when he sees me! ”

The homeless children scattered and disappeared into the inconspicuous dark alleys near the square.

Wang: "Shepherd dogs? ”

"Yes, bastards who make money with these orphans. If these orphans survive and grow up, they will eventually become a new generation of sheepdogs. By the way, that's also the path I should have taken. Mark said in a deep voice.

Wang: "I read a book that has been circulated from other planes, called "The Wanderings of a Bitter Child", and at the end of the story, the protagonist finds his biological mother, finds that his biological mother is a rich girl, and finally ......"

Mark interrupted the mage with a hearty laugh: "This is similar to me, I met the eldest lady, and now I have become her loyal dog, at least I have no worries about food and clothing." ”

Wang: "Indeed, it is ...... in that heterogeneous face book."

"Let's talk about your pet." Mark interrupted him.

"Ah, Devil Pet. What happened to the Demon Pet? ”

"You chose the crow to be a pet because it can talk?"

"Yes, according to my teacher, the talking pet is the only one worthy of the status of an archmage. He also gave an example of the archmages who want to subvert the world in the legendary story, all of them use crow pets, and they will also make the pets talk about the protagonist's adventures. ”

Mark looked at Wang with a frown: "That master...... Is it a character with such a personality? It's not like the bard's poems. ”

Wang: "That's it. His favorite thing to do is to summon us apprentices with his crow pets. So I also made a crow pet, and then found that it is really convenient for the pet to speak, I often use the pet to order food in the cafeteria, and the meal has already been served. ”

Mark: "The cafeteria? ”

"You just think of it as a restaurant in the tower."

Mark: "Sounds like there's a lot of life in your tower. ”

"Sort of, more than a hundred mages live together, and they can't be lively if they don't want to, and for a while, whoever made half of the golem went violent, and for a while, the summoning spell went wrong and the magma from hell flowed in......"

"Stop!" Mark raised his palm and made a stop gesture, "Leave this for Miss." She's probably going to like it. ”

Wang: "Will she?" ”

"Of course, I told her about my time on the streets, and she listened to it with great interest. Okay, back to business, is there something wrong with this gallows? ”

Wang: "No. I could feel the magic in this square, but it wasn't supposed to be part of the larger magic. In fact, as soon as we entered the square, I felt the detection magic pointed at me. ”

Mark: "That's normal, after all, a faceless spellcaster showed up in Gallows Square. This is where Swan Gate Lane and Mouse Street meet. Do you see that rat-like sign over there?

"It was a tavern, and the street back was the famous Mouse Street.

"Do you see that swan sign in the other direction? It's the most prestigious smoke house here, and from the back door of it is Swan Gate Alley. ”

Mark was explaining this, and a dagger was attached to the king's neck.

The drow elf who suddenly appeared pulled his hood up slightly, revealing his lips slightly: "Mage, detection and detection is not a spell that can be cast by the apprentices of the Three Rings, how do you feel the detection pointed at you?" Even the prophecy school can't do it without casting spells, right? ”

"Successful detection allows me to see an image of the person who is detecting me, and at least to let me know where he is." Wang replied calmly, "And I just felt the aura of detecting magic. But I don't know where the caster is, or who he is. ”

"Well, I'll trust you for now. But...... You didn't use the Mirror Shadow Technique this time, did you run out of spells today? It's too careless to prepare only one mirror technique. ”

Wang grinned: "No, I just didn't feel malice in you. You also know that there is a limit to the number of spells that a mage can prepare every day, and of course you can save it. ”

Drow: "A prophetic mage who can sense malice...... I've never seen anything like you. ”

"My teacher also said that I am gifted in the school of prophecy." The king said in a complete statement.

He paused, and added, "And, I can predict now that we're about to be in trouble." ”

Mark silently adjusted the position of the long sword at his waist and put it in a place where it was easier to pull it out, and his eyes were fixed on the ill-intentioned men who came around: "You don't need to predict this, mage. ”

Among the people who gathered around, someone seemed to know Mark: "Hey, Mark, is it fun to play with Her Royal Highness the Princess?" When will you sleep with her? Or have you already slept? ”

Mark put on a creamy tone, "If I were you, I wouldn't say such things in front of our wanderers, after all...... Who hasn't been left alone, and I don't want to be an unclaimed corpse in the stinking ditch of Swan Gate Lane tomorrow. ”

At this time, the man who looked like a leader spoke: "Don wants to know the skills of your new mage. After all, the whole city knows about the fact that he was sent by the portal this morning. Some people even swore that it was the Otherworldly Gate of the Nine Rings, which was opened from the half-plane of a certain archmage. ”

The king was suddenly overjoyed: "Really? Who recognized? I wanted to meet this man who recognized the spell, he must be a master of the Nine Rings spells. ”

He frowned halfway through speaking: "But that's not right, just now Mark told me that the court archmage visiting here can only be proficient in the Eight Rings spell, and the inference I have drawn from this is that there are very few people in this plane who are proficient in the Nine Rings spell. ”

Mark: "Is it possible that the man just heard the spell of the Otherworldly Gate in the Bard's poetry and said it casually?" ”

Wang let out an "oh" and gave a thumbs up: "Reasonable!" ”

Mark said to the little boss who had just spoken, "Did you see that? Go back and tell the great Don that the princess's new mage is a nerd. ”

Wang: "Is this Tang an honorific title?" Something like 'Daddy'? Or is it a nickname? It's also similar to daddy and stuff. ”

Little Boss: "It's an honorific title." Mark, you know Don doesn't like to be perfunctory. So you see, we have to do something to test the strength of your new friend......"

Wang: "You're saying you're going to prepare me for a test?" How to test it? Answer? Quickcast Contest? I've noticed that there are spellcasters among you, too. Is it for me to get into the ring with him? ”

All of a sudden, the audience fell silent.

The little leader suddenly laughed: "Hahahaha, Mark, you mages are very humorous." ”

Mark said to the king helplessly, "What they mean is that they are ready to us." ”

The king suddenly realized: "Oh! So that's what the test is about! ”

As soon as he finished speaking, the drow elf's dagger hit the little boss in the eye.

The next moment, a smoke grenade rolled out of her cloak, and after a crisp thud, the king's vision was completely obscured by the smoke.

The figure of the Drow Elf, who had just been next to the king, completely disappeared into the smoke, and only the screams of the enemy made it clear what she was doing.

Wang muttered, "You've deprived me of my vision." ”

As he spoke, his hand had already pulled out a small cloud of clear gel from the bag of spellcasting materials, with something like an eyelash floating inside.

In fact, it's the eyelashes, from a certain disciple in the tower who is eager to provide casting materials.

With the spell material in hand, Wang completed the gesture accurately and quickly, and the spell popped out of his mouth accurately and clearly at the same time.

The gel in his hand vaporized and vanished in an instant, along with the eyelashes inside.

Then he disappeared without a trace.

At this moment, someone shouted in the smoke: "It's a spell of invisibility, that mage is invisible!" ”

Another voice scolded, "Leave this alone, find a way to dispel this smoke bastard!" ”

As the words fell, a breeze blew, carrying away the smoke.

The Drow Elf is plunging a dagger into the throat of a fourth hapless man.

The warrior leaned his back against the gallows and assumed a defensive posture, guarding his sides with a short sword and a long sword.

As for the mage, the mage is missing.

Drow: "Mark, can't you kill one?" ”

Mark: "I don't have the same murderous intent as you. And...... Well, I'll admit I'm not as good as you. ”
