Genius remembers in a second [Aishang Novel Network biquge.info] to provide you with wonderful novels to read.
Bhatia looked at this magic array, and the more she looked at it, the more frightened she became.
He can become a mid-level mage, and his attainments in the magic array will naturally not be weak.
But from Batia's eyes, this magic array is full of strangeness, obviously this formation is working, but he can't find the source of magic power to maintain this magic array!
This...... This is simply overturning the basic theory of the magic array!
Suddenly seeing Chen Daolin standing aside with a sneer on his face, Bhatia immediately shouted: "Since you can see through this magic array, then I think you can also open it!"
"When I open this magic array, it will be my time of death!" Chen Daolin sneered.
"If you don't, you'll die now. Bhatia raised her wand.
Chen Daolin moved his steps back, just looking at Bhatia coldly.
Bhatia glared at Chen Daolin for a while, and finally took a deep breath: "Okay...... How about we make a deal?"
"Hmph. β
"If you help me open this magic circle, I will promise that I will not harm your life. Bhatia said slowly: "I can sign a magic contract with you, you are also a magician, you should know that once the magic contract is signed, if you break the contract, you will be attacked by magic power, and it will never escape......! If we sign a magical contract, you can trust me. β
Chen Daolin thought about it, and then nodded and said, "Okay!"
Bhatia was a decisive person, and immediately took out a magic contract, and the two signed it on the spot, with the magic infused with it. The contract burned and turned into ashes. Bhatia looked at Chen Daolin coldly: "You can rest assured now, right?"
Chen Daolin laughed. But suddenly, he saw Bhatia looking at him coldly. The wand pointed at him, and a powerful telekinesis rushed over, instantly knocking Chen Daolin to the ground!
Chen Daolin was shocked: This guy is going to turn his face?!
Before he could get up, Bhatia's mouth was already fast at the beginning of the year. The wand pointed, and Chen Daolin suddenly flew up again, and his body slammed into the wall.
He struggled to urge his mental strength to resist, and raised his hand with a wave. There was a flash of fire!
Bhatia's eyes tightened, and he shouted, "Good ability!"
He smiled coldly, didn't dodge, and let the firelight fall on his body, but a transparent light suddenly appeared on his robe, blocking all the firelight from the outside, and not even a little spark really touched his body!
"Haha! Young people are young people!" Bhatia let out a long laugh, and the magic wand was clicked, and suddenly a huge pressure overturned Chen Daolin: "I have been preparing for things here for five years, do you think I will come here without any preparation!"
Chen Daolin got up from the ground. But his body was already stiff, as if there were several shackles that had locked his whole body firmly. He knew it was wind magic. It's called airflow shackles.
At this moment, his whole body was restrained, and Chen Daolin frowned and said, "You really want to kill me?"
"I didn't mean to kill you. Bhatia walked over, walked in front of him, and looked at Chen Daolin condescendingly: "However, I always feel that this guy is weird, and it's hard to guarantee what tricks you will come up with, so I have to find a way to take good care of you." β
After a pause, Bhatia frowned: "When you fought back against me just now, you didn't chant a spell for this spell...... Hmph, how did you do that? Could it be that you have some magic scroll hidden on you?"
Chen Daolin did not speak.
Bhatia didn't say anything when he saw him, so he didn't ask anymore, but he sneered, and when he touched it from his arms, he actually found a shackle.
The shackles seemed to be made of silver, turning out a cold silver glow. Chen Daolin immediately felt a strong fluctuation of magic power.
"Huh, what a strong light divine attribute. β
"Hmph, you know the goods. Bhatia smiled, bent down, and put the shackles on Chen Daolin's hands with his own hands, and then lightly touched the wand on them.
With a click, the shackles were automatically tightened! In an instant, Chen Daolin felt a strong invisible force filling his whole body, and the spiritual power that he was secretly gathering momentum suddenly receded like a tide, and dissipated in a blink of an eye!
Chen Daolin's surprise was not trivial, he tried to stimulate the magic power again, but no matter how hard he tried, he could no longer condense a trace of magic power. As long as you move your mind a little, the magic power will be absorbed in an instant before it is condensed!
And the shackles on the hand, the silver light is sheng!
"This, what is this?" Chen Daolin gritted his teeth.
"Haha, you don't have to bother battling. Bhatia sneered: "This thing is called the 'magician's shackles', but it is specially used against magicians." Even if you are a mage of the seventh or eighth level, you can be obediently restrained under these shackles, let alone a low-level mage. β
"Magician shackles, is there such a thing in this world?" Chen Daolin didn't believe it.
"Hmph, it's lonely. Seeing that Chen Daolin no longer had the ability to resist, Batia was much more relaxed: "This thing is not easy to come by, and it is a rare commodity obtained by the Magic Guild. For thousands of years, there have been so many magicians on the mainland, there will always be some evil minds and evil, the magic union as a common organization of magicians, naturally also has the responsibility of crusading against evil magicians, the union has its own magician law enforcement team, specifically to capture and deal with those evil mages, this thing is the secret treasure in the magic union! Once you wear these shackles, your magic power will not be able to condense, and if you push the magic power a little, you will be sucked into this shackles! For thousands of years, these shackles have not known how many famous people have been locked, and you little guy is nothing. β
Chen Daolin looked at the shackles in his hand, and suddenly smiled bitterly: "In this way, I am very honored...... This thing must be rare, right? How did you get it?"
"Even in the Wizards' Guild, there are only six or seven pairs of shackles left. As for the pair of ...... in my hand You don't need to ask much about the origin. Locking you up is enough anyway!"
Chen Daolin staggered to his feet. Glancing at Bhatia, "You really don't kill me?"
"The contract has been signed, and I don't want to taste the magic backlash. Bhatia shook her head: "I just want to guard against your tricks, as long as you are honest and wait for the matter here to end." Naturally, I'll let you go. β
Speaking of this, Bhatia's eyes froze: "Now, hurry up and tell me, how to open this magic array!"
Chen Daolin glanced at this guy. Sighed: "You look down at the ground." β
Above the ground, as the light of the magic array on the ceiling flowed, the countless strange symbols were twisted like spirit snakes......
The round Taiji diagram on the original ceiling was finally reflected on the ground, and a large Taiji floating shadow appeared on the stone slab on the ground.
Batia naturally didn't recognize this Taiji diagram, but instinctively felt that this pattern was quite strange, and couldn't help but look at it a few more times.
A large circle, with a small circle in it, are the two circular skylights in the ceiling.
Because the skylight is open. The light from outside shone in, like two circular projection beams on the ground.
The brightness of the beam is very faint. If you don't look closely, it's really hard to notice.
Chen Daolin pointed to two circular beams of light: "These are the two entrances, you just need to stand in the beams...... This magic array should be a teleportation array, as for where to teleport, don't ask me. β
Bhatia hesitated for a moment, looking at the two circular beam shadows on the ground, he quickly made a decision in his heart: "You go first!"
Chen Daolin had expected him to do this, smiled lightly, and was about to step towards the closest beam circle to his side.
But at this moment, suddenly, I heard a gentle cough behind Batia, at the doorstep outside the top of the tower.
Bhatia also heard the cough, and the magician suddenly changed color and quickly turned away!
At the door of the stargazing room at the top of the tower, a figure stands.
The figure is stiff, the waist seems to be unable to straighten up, bending over and coughing, and the breath is heavy and disordered.
This man was dressed in dirty linen robes, dressed as a servant, and carrying a dimly lit lantern in his left hand, with a mediocre appearance, a withered description, and a pair of old eyes that were cloudy.
But he just appeared at this door, and he didn't know when he came!
Bhatia had already spread his spiritual power everywhere, and under the cover of the magician's spiritual power, this person actually came so close without even noticing it......
As soon as he thought of this, a cold sweat broke out on his back.
This person, of course, is the old servant of the Luo Lin family who is responsible for guarding and cleaning this white tower!
The old servant seemed to sigh softly, carrying the lantern, and walked into the stargazing room step by step, and when he walked into the door, the door behind him closed silently.
"Mage Bhatia. The old servant swept over Bhatia with a cloudy gaze, and then glanced at Chen Daolin again: "And this young magician...... Your name is Darling, right? I guess I heard it right. β
"......" Chen Daolin and Bhatia glanced at each other, and at the same time stared nervously at the old servant.
Bhatia's heart was even more horrified than Chen Daolin's!
He came to the White Tower after Chen Daolin hidden tonight, and before he came in, he had already quietly arranged two magic prohibitions outside. In addition, he also cast a "space barrier" magic, which not only isolates all movement in the room, but also prevents people from outside from entering!
But this old servant came to the room so quietly, as if the two magic prohibitions he had set up outside didn't have any effect! And he just walked into the room, he was so relaxed and leisurely, and his own space barrier magic didn't react to him at all!
As soon as he thought of this, Bhatia's hand that was holding the wand drooped down, and he really couldn't have the courage to make the first move.
"When I saw both of you during the day, I thought to myself...... Ahem...... I thought in my heart, after waiting for so many years, it seems that I have finally waited for something. The old servant seemed to be smiling bitterly: "How many years has the magic array here not been opened...... Let me think about it, this time is so long, I almost forgot jìla......"
He turned around and slowly placed the lantern on the ground in the corner, and he turned around with such a big grin, and showed his back to Bhatia without paying attention. But even so, Bhatia still didn't have the courage to do it!
"Hmm. Not bad. It's pretty smart. "The old servant who turned around. Glancing at Bhatia, he said, "You don't look too stupid when I turn around, don't you look stupid, magician......"
Speaking of this, he coughed twice: "But...... You're not stupid. But why do you do such a stupid thing again?"
Bhatia's breathing began to be rapid and heavy, and Chen Daolin carefully took a half step back, hiding his body behind Bhatia.
"I remember the first time I saw you five years ago. Master Bhatia. The old servant had a smile on his face, but his cloudy old eyes did not have any brilliance: "You came to the Rollin family and became the magic advisor of the Rollin family...... Well, at that time, if I'm not mistaken, your strength reached the standard of a fifth-level mage. It's been five or six years now, and now you have a sixth-level strength, and you're already standing at the level before the intermediate and high levels. It seems that you have been very diligent in the past five or six years. β
Bhatia stared at the old servant: "You...... Who the hell are you?"
The old servant shook his head, but did not answer the question. Then he looked up and looked at the skylight in the ceiling. It is as if looking at the stars in the sky, still remembering: "I remember...... You are a very patient person, and after coming to Rollin's house, you waited three months before you came to explore this place for the first time. That time, you came in the middle of the night and stood outside my door and listened quietly for a full hour...... Your patience is good. Over the years, I have met many people who have come to the White Tower to spy at night, and you are the most careful and patient one, even an old servant like me, you will not take it lightly.
I remember that night, you stayed on top of this tower until almost dawn, and then left disappointed. β
After a pause, the old servant continued to laugh: "But you are not dead. Later, you came in a total of nine times, and you looked at almost every step of the white tower from the bottom to the top. You even quietly put a sleeping spell on me once, and then went into my room to check it out before leaving, didn't you?"
Cold sweat is dripping from Bhatia's forehead!
"Cautious, patient, and attentive, you're really a rare talent. The old servant sighed: "I have met so many people here over the years who have fought the idea of this white tower, and you are the one who makes me look at it the most." β
"You...... Who the hell are you!" Bhatia's heart grew more and more nervous, and finally she almost lost her temper and shouted loudly.
"Me?" the old servant smiled faintly, and his eyes immediately became a little gloomy: "It's been too long, it's been too long, so long that I've almost forgotten who I am." β
He squinted his eyes, as if immersed in a memory:
"When I first came to Rollin's house, I remember that the hostess of the White Tower was still there. I am a young groom, and all I know is that I have to guard this white tower, and the secrets of this place cannot be known to others. Then, thirty years later, that physical body of mine grew old and died...... Then I changed my body and became a gardener in this castle of Lorraine...... Then, twenty years later, the gardener died, and I became a blacksmith......"
He shook his head and sighed as he spoke.
But Chen Daolin, who was listening on the sidelines, already had a strange face.
This...... Could this be...... Is it a ...... By the way of grabbing...... Get ...... Immortal?!
"If I'm not mistaken, as of today, it's three hundred and sixty-one years and thirty-seven days. The old servant said lightly.
Three hundred and sixty-one years......
Chen Daolin's heart suddenly moved, and he couldn't help but speak: "You mean...... You've lived here for three hundred and sixty-one years?"
"Alive?" the old servant smiled bitterly, "It's considered alive." β
"So...... Have you ever seen Duke Tulip? The first Duke of Tulip. Chen Daolin asked.
"You mean Du Wei?" the old servant's eyes were a little strange: "He...... I've seen it a few times. When I first came to the castle, it was far away. But he didn't discover the secret of the White Tower...... So, my mission doesn't have much to do with him. But Duke Tulip is a terrible man, huh...... It's scary, it's scary...... Later, as soon as he came to the castle of the Lorraine family, I avoided it from a distance, but I did not dare to let him discover my deposit. β
"Tell me, who the hell are you. "Chen Daolin is calmer than Bhatia, anyway, even Chris's 10,000-year-old monster has seen it, a guy who has only lived for more than 300 years, not even a fraction of Chris.
"I ......" the old servant smiled lightly, but the smile was a little strange: "I...... I don't think it's a 'person'. I'm just a ...... Those who have lost their masters, lonely ghosts. β
Lost the owner......
Chen Daolin immediately asked, "Who is your master?"
"My master......" The old servant suddenly stopped talking and glanced at Chen Daolin: "Why do you have to ask so much? Anyway, you are all going to die, what is the difference between knowing and not knowing?"
"Going to die?" Bhatia couldn't help but sneer.
"Yes, it's going to die. The old servant coughed and sighed, and slowly straightened his body.
In his cloudy old eyes, there was a glimmer of light, which burst out little by little:
"Whoever knows the secret of this white pagoda will die...... Every one of them is going to die!" (To be continued)
