Half a minute later, the black robe cast a black light, fixed a piece of white fruit in front of it, and then slowly spoke: "It's decided!

Worried that the black robe might do something threatening, Leo didn't get too close, but kept a distance of about twenty meters.

In this way, even if the other party makes a sudden move, he will leave himself a certain amount of time to react and not be caught off guard.

As for where the other party was going, Leo didn't ask much, he believed that the black robe would not joke with his life. Moreover, Leo himself is not without hole cards, the key of the Rising Sun has long been charged, and if it doesn't work, he can directly open the portal and forcibly leave.

Walking all the way through the plantation, more than ten minutes passed, and a white jade gate appeared in front of him that was exactly the same as the one he had encountered before. Behind the gate, the towering magic tower seems to be close at hand.

Seeing that the black robe stopped, Leo frowned slightly and asked, "Shall we go in?"

The black robe nodded: "Yes, there is a direct passage to the outside world in the magic tower. ”

"But I've heard it's dangerous in there, isn't it?" said Dina, a little nervous.

"Yes, it's more dangerous than the outside. The black-robed voice was unwavering, "However, this is the nearest exit, and with a bit of luck, we may have some windfalls." ”

After a pause, his eyes hidden in his hood swept over the two of them, and he continued, "Now you have to make a decision, because I'm going in soon. ”

Behind him were the white fruits that were still screaming, and the large blackbirds in the sky had not dispersed, and Leo knew that it was very unrealistic to want to return to the place where he entered now, so to speak. I don't have a choice now.

Dina thought the same thing, and whispered, "Then let's go in." ”

"Good. Leo immediately responded, and then asked, "Do you know what's inside the magic tower?"

Dina replied with a solemn expression, "I don't know, my teacher hasn't been inside. ”

Just as the two were talking, the black robe had quietly entered the white jade gate, obviously eating the two people behind.

Leo didn't like it very much, though. But there was no way, so he could only glance at Dina, and hurriedly followed into the white jade gate.

And the moment he stepped in, a thick viscous feeling came, as if the air here had become extremely thick, and even breathing became extremely difficult. The white fruits and blackbirds chasing behind them stayed outside. Some kind of unknown obstruction makes them not dare to take half a step at all.

At this time, the voice of the black robe came from the front: "Use your concealed abilities. Be careful, there's danger ahead, and if you bring in something you shouldn't do, I won't do it. ”

As he spoke, his figure began to turn gray and fade again, and disappeared in the blink of an eye.

However, in order to prevent the latter two from being unable to keep up, he did not disappear completely, but left a very inconspicuous gray punctuation.

See this scene. While Leo put on the invisible blanket, he also quickly left a two-way arcane imprint on himself. This simple magic is similar to the opponent's gray punctuation function. It allows the target person to find out where they are at any time.

The path leading to the Magic Tower is a secluded path lined with tall trees. But the strange thing is that it is already late autumn, but there are no fallen leaves on the road, and it can even be said that it is spotless.

After moving forward for a hundred and ten meters, the punctuation point in front of it suddenly shook a few times. Leo knows. Hurriedly stopped.

A few seconds later, a vague figure floated over, still holding a broom in his hand.

"Ghost Minions...... No wonder ......" Leo had seen this kind of thing in Minethiel Manor before, so he recognized it immediately.

However, the ghost servant in front of him seemed to be different from that of Mr. Planck. It's not just a blur of the body. His face was blurred, and he didn't seem to have any intelligence, just doing the cleaning work mechanically.

After a while, the ghost servant slowly floated by, and Leo followed the gray punctuation mark in front of him.

Along the way, he silently calculated, and actually encountered no less than twenty ghost servants. They had a clear division of labor, some were building lawns, some were watering plants, and everything seemed to be in order, which even made Leo wonder if the legendary mage with this half-plane was still alive.

Carefully bypassing the ghost minions, at the end of the path, the magic tower was gradually revealed.

Leo realized that the path he had taken was just one of many paths leading to the Magic Tower.

Looking up, with the magic tower as the center, the winding roads radiate out, and there are no less than a dozen of them. Leo couldn't help but wonder how big this half-plane should be if every path led to an area that resembled a plantation!

Soon, Leo's gaze shifted back to the Magic Tower.

This majestic magic tower has reached fifteen floors. This far exceeded the height of the three to five floors of the ordinary mage tower, and it also clearly showed the strong strength and noble status possessed by the master.

Fortunately, Leo didn't notice the presence of a surveillance magic circle nearby, which made him feel a little more relaxed. Perhaps it is precisely because of this self-confidence that the master does not set up strict surveillance like ordinary mages.

However, another challenge arises.

The door of the magic tower is inky black, with a metallic luster, and at first glance it seems to be a magic iron with excellent magic power transmission performance. This metal is much more precious than steel, and it is also an excellent material for crafting weapons, and it is very wasteful to use it to make gates, but it is very difficult to break through, at least Leo knows that with his own ability, he can't do it at all.

The gray punctuation representing the gray robe stepped back a little, and a hoarse voice came: "Don't worry, the door will open in a while." ”

Leo nodded in understanding. Then, he hesitated slightly, but decided to ask the doubts in his heart, and said, "If you want to enter the magic tower, it should be as simple as leaving here. ”

"Yes, there's something I'm looking for. If you're willing to cooperate, we can share it afterwards. The black robe was surprisingly frank, without any hint of concealment.

Actually, here it is. He really didn't need to hide it.

Leo's heart moved, and he hurriedly asked, "What is it?"

The black-robed man let out a string of ugly laughs in his hoarse voice, and replied, "What else could it be, of course, the great research result of the great Fink Hulse, the alchemy of the human body!"

"Human alchemy!" Leo was taken aback.

Through the notes he got from the bandit leader, Leo had a guess about Fink Hulse's specialization. It must have been a powerful mage who specialized in the School of Change, and had a unique attainment in the field of Change. But he never expected it. The other party turned out to be a researcher of human body refining technology!

You must know that although the human body refining technology in the field of magic has never been broken, there has always been great controversy, so the inheritance is incomplete, and there are not many people who are willing to accept it.

Researchers in this academic field often use magical power to greatly modify the body to achieve the purpose of being able to carry out various special applications.

But in the process of transformation, in order for the soul to be able to accept the new body. It is necessary to change the soul to a certain extent, which will change the structure of the soul to a large extent, and will also cause many unpredictable changes. Therefore, in the eyes of ordinary mages, the inheritors of human alchemy are often freaks and are not accepted.

"It turns out that he is a inheritor of human body refining, no wonder one wears this kind of black robe. Leo suddenly thought.

Didn't wait for Leo to say anything more. A bell rang, and it didn't sound threatening. On the contrary, it is crisp and melodious, which makes people feel refreshed for a while, and even the feeling of stagnation in the air has been reduced a little.

The next moment, the heavy magic iron gate slowly opened, making a tooth-aching sound.

And as the gate opened, the sound of armor clashing came.

Leo was surprised to see. A whole group of guards in standard armor streamed out of the gate.

Their armor is uniformly silvery-white, and the surface is well-maintained, extremely smooth and shining. On the chest of the armor, an inverted triangle pattern of inexplicable meaning is painted in purple paint.

Leo observed. It soon became clear that these guards, no matter how tall, short, fat or thin, were exactly the same.

"Magic golems again?" he whispered to himself.

"No, it's a living guard. The black-robed man spoke unexpectedly. Seeing Leo's puzzled face, he continued: "A zombie-like thing, but easier to control, more flexible, and better in combat than zombies. ”

"This thing can't be made from living people...... Dina's guess tremblingly.

"Hehehe, that's right. The black-robed man let out another unpleasant laugh, and then said, "All right, keep quiet now, and we will be able to go in at once." ”

Soon, the living dead guard in the mouth of the black robe split into two teams and patrolled in different directions. The screeching sound of metal rubbing came again, and the magic iron door began to slowly close.

"Let's go, move lightly, although their perception is not strong, but it is definitely not an ornament!" the black robe emphasized, and took the lead in moving towards the Demon Iron Gate. Leo and Dina didn't dare to delay and hurriedly followed.

Half a minute passed, and the three of them managed to enter the inside of the magic tower before the magic iron gate closed, and everything was just right. The occurrence of this scene made Leo even more convinced that the black robe must have been here many times, otherwise it would be impossible to even grasp the time so accurately.

Contrary to what he had imagined, the interior of the magic tower was not gloomy, but unusually bright. In addition to the sunlight that is collected indoors in a special way, there are also candles burning around it that are not extinguished.

"If you don't want accidents, you must follow my footsteps and listen to my instructions. The black-robed man spoke, and without waiting for the two to respond, he recovered his physical form and walked towards a staircase in the depths of the magic tower.

Seeing him do this, Leo also took the invisibility blanket off. But in the next second, he suddenly felt a cold gaze lock on him.

"What is this......" Leo suddenly had cold sweat oozing from his back.

But when he noticed Dina beside him, he was even more surprised. Because although the other party was also out of the range of the invisible blanket, his expression was as usual, as if he didn't feel the terrible gaze at all.

"Don't worry about it, you will feel this way when you come in for the first time, this is the remnant of the will of the strongest, it is really for people with stronger souls, just wait for a while to get used to it." The black robe didn't look back, and directly raised his feet up the stairs.

The long staircase seems to be endless. Leo silently calculated, and it was not until the thirteenth floor that the black robe in front of him stopped and said, "Next, there may be some battles to happen, you guys get ready." But don't be too nervous, the enemy's strength is not strong. The premise is that we have to fix it as quickly as possible, and we don't make too much of a fuss to avoid attracting something more difficult. ”

As soon as the words fell, heavy footsteps rang out, and they were getting closer.

"I'll control it first, and you attack according to the key points I've marked!" the black-robed man cried out in a low voice, "Remember, don't make too much noise!"

Dina subconsciously held the bow and arrow behind her back in her hand, but her whole arm was trembling.

Leo shook his head and comforted softly: "It's okay, you don't have to be too nervous, I'll attack in a while." ”

"Hmm......" Dina replied with complete gratitude. She had already remembered how Leo had used lightning magic to destroy the metal bear, and she was finally relieved.

The black-robed man snorted softly, completely confused about what he was trying to say, and then, he had begun to chant a low, hoarse incantation.

After a few breaths, a wide figure slowly appeared around the corner of the corridor.

It was an obese lion out of proportion, with gray and white bags, thick limbs, and terrifying fangs, but it was clearly not a real lion, but a stone statue.

"Living fossil statue...... Leo muttered to himself, and soon realized that the living fossil statue in front of him was different from the ones he had seen before. Through the psychic scan, it can be seen that there is no mechanical structure in its body, and it completely relies on activated rocks for its activities!

In other words, compared to those counterfeit products, this is the real living fossil statue!

At the same time, the lion's red gemstone eyes also looked at the three of them, and opened their mouths, but they didn't know if it wanted to roar or say something.

Because before it could make a sound, the black robe had already recited the incantation.

Countless black chains appeared out of thin air, forming a net, enveloping the lion statue.

At the same time, the lion statue was already roaring.

However, no sound was heard, and the chains seemed to seal off the space they covered, not even emitting the fluctuations that magic should have. (To be continued......)
