Chapter 126 The mysterious master of the tower, the choice of focus enchantment
The magic message from the Lord of the Tower rang in his ears. Sebastian politely dismissed the group of apprentices who seemed to be extremely enthusiastic. After saying hello to Isabel, who had just driven back last night, he took a stroll. Walk towards the passage leading to the top of the tower.
The residence of the Lord of the Tower is located on the highest floor of the Archmage Tower. It is not an undisclosed secret. But no matter who he was, he would never dare to disturb the supreme leader of the Great Mage Tower unless there were urgent matters. Because even in the eyes of magicians, the Lord of the Tower is a rather mysterious being. Except for promotion ceremonies and extremely rare major events, the Lord of the Tower rarely appears in front of the magicians. But it's not surprising, because even the Archmage rarely directly intervenes in the management of the Archmage Tower, but leaves it to the honorary elders below to handle it entirely.
As the floating saucer rose rapidly, Sebastian had time to reorganize his thoughts.
His senior brother Crowley did not attend the promotion ceremony, but Instructor Yager had already informed him in advance. Perhaps due to stimulation, Crowley started practicing closed meditation a few days ago, as if he planned not to come out until he met the criteria for promotion. In fact, Sebastian does not doubt the feasibility of the other party's action, because in terms of Crowley's ability, he has already accumulated it for a long time. He only lacks an opportunity to make a short hair, and his promotion is undoubtedly A very effective opportunity. Maybe next time I see this senior brother, his identity will also change.
On the other hand, although Narcassos and Little Manchester both attended the ceremony, they did not come forward to congratulate them like other magicians. Not to mention the most basic nod, Archmage Antonio had just walked away, and the two of them left directly behind.
No, to be more precise, three people. Little Manchester's uncle, the younger brother of the current patriarch of the Summoner family, Mentor Manchester, was also with the two of them. The look that this gloomy-faced old man occasionally looked at Sebastian was not really friendly.
Regarding this, Sebastian has already been mentally prepared. Ever since he defeated Little Manchester, he had vaguely felt the invisible pressure coming from there. In fact, it would be fine if the two of them competed in other events. The Samena family did not seriously say that they could not afford to lose at all, but who asked them to compete was the summoning chess that this summoner family has been most proud of for hundreds of years. The scene of the match between the two that day has been spread through the crowd watching. Sebastian's mysterious half-animal summoned beast defeated the Salmena family's secret magic fantasy elf head-on in the most direct and rude way. This was In the eyes of a caring person, it is simply a slap in the face. If we can't find a way to save a round, wouldn't the title of "The Strongest Summoner Family" become a joke?
Silently thinking about the future development path, Sebastian had arrived at his destination before he knew it.
The real space inside the Great Mage Tower is kneaded at will like dough. After passing through the long corridor, the floating disk landed lightly in front of a huge stone door covered with complex runes, and then evaporated in the air in the blink of an eye.
Before Sebastian could take any action, the heavy stone door opened on its own. With a slight smile, Sebastian stepped into the door. The heavy stone door slowly closed behind him, then gradually faded until it disappeared.
A gentle breeze blows, and the sun shines warmly. Rather than saying that this is somewhere inside the Archmage Tower, it would be better to say that this is the rooftop at the top of the tower. With no walls and no ceiling above you, the stunning scenery of Sorens is unobstructed from the top of the tallest building in the city.
However, Sebastian knew very well that, like the Hecate Temple where he was a moment ago, the scenery presented here was not completely real. Even if we don't mention that the design of the Sorrens Archmage Tower does not have this broad top platform, at such a height that towers into the clouds, the wind blowing around will never be as gentle as it feels now.
A huge and complex magic circle is painted on the ground of the platform. The center of the magic circle is a marble base embedded with runes, and a transparent crystal ball the size of a human head is suspended on it, floating up and down slightly. Other than that, there is nothing else here.
With his hands folded in his sleeves, Sebastian looked at his nose, his nose and his heart, and just stood there quietly without saying a word.
Time passed quietly, I don¡¯t know how long it took, until a hazy figure appeared next to the crystal ball.
"What, young man, aren't you interested in the charming scenery in front of you at all?" A voice that sounded neither male nor female sounded, and it was somewhat similar to the previous large-scale magic transmission sound. place.
"Good day, everyoneThe master of the master tower. I am Sebastian, the magician who was promoted today, and it is my honor to meet you. "Sebastian bowed and saluted.
"You're welcome." The figure raised his hand to signal the boy not to be polite and said, "You haven't answered my question yet."
With this simple movement, ripples seemed to be produced on the body of the Lord of the Tower. Perhaps because of the existence of magic, his face was quite blurry, making it difficult to distinguish. Coupled with the neutral voice, to be honest, the magicians have no idea whether the master of the tower is male or female or how old he is. But having said that, no one has ever mistakenly identified the owner of the Tower in the Grand Master Tower.
When the Master of the Tower appeared in front of Sebastian, the latter almost immediately felt keenly that the rich arcane energy in the Archmage Tower that far exceeded the outside world seemed to have found a long-lost source, and he happily expressed his gratitude to Sebastian. The person in front of me rushed over and quickly connected with him.
According to legend, the Lord of the Tower can directly control all the systems inside the Archmage Tower with one person, and has far more authority than the Archmages. It seems that it may not be a fiction.
"It's not that I'm not interested in the scenery. Your Excellency, Lord of the Tower, I must admit that this is the most successful illusion I've ever seen." Sebastian glanced around calmly and said lightly, "It's just that no matter what you look at, How real the illusion seems, but it can never be 100% real. Compared with the real scenery, I always feel that something is missing."
"Haha, that's right. Fortunately, I also deliberately used the shadow spell to produce some reality. Unfortunately, this is not the shadow plane. Even this most powerful illusion cannot achieve the maximum effect. Even if it has 100% The eighty degree of reality cannot be called reality after all." The Lord of the Tower was silent for a moment and said helplessly.
"I'm really surprised by your extensive involvement!" Sebastian raised his eyebrows and said with some surprise, "If I remember correctly, since the Shadow Kingdom was destroyed a thousand years ago, there have been many There are few mages who specialize in this kind of shadow spell that may damage perception. Could it be said that you are actually a shadow mentor?"
"That's not the case, I just used other methods." The Lord of the Tower didn't seem to want to continue discussing this topic. He said a simple sentence and then changed the topic, "Okay, plug Bastien, let¡¯s get down to business. According to the previous procedures, I will enchant an item of your choice so that you can connect to the spell pool. Now, take out what you have prepared.¡±
"Yes, Your Excellency. This is the thing I chose to add the arcane focus to, is that okay?" Sebastian replied while slowly spreading his right hand.
In the palm of his hand, a perfect hexagonal crystal the size of a finger reflected colorful light in the sunlight.
Sebastian¡¯s choice was actually the Spiritual Crystal Servant!
The Lord of the Tower waved slightly, and the crystal seemed to be picked up by an invisible hand, slowly flew towards him, and landed in his open left palm.
"Huh¡ª¡ª?"
Almost as soon as he touched the crystal, the Lord of the Tower let out a soft cry of surprise. For some reason, his left hand seemed blurry at that moment, but it soon returned to normal.
"Magic item? No, it's not!" With a few simple characters, the master of the tower inspired a detection spell, carefully observed the mysterious crystal in his hand, and the owner of the crystal who was standing aside without paying attention said, "A bit Meaning, this crystal seems to have incomplete self-awareness. Well, no, this is this is actually a construct? Hmm this is the first time I have seen this type of intelligent construct."
"Your Excellency?" Seeing that the other party kept grabbing his spiritual crystal servant and playing with it, Sebastian had no choice but to remind him.
"Huh? Oh I'm sorry, I was a little obsessed." The Lord of the Tower came back to his senses and apologized with a smile, but his tone was full of curiosity, "Where did you get this little thing? ?What is it used for? I think you don¡¯t mind satisfying an old man¡¯s curiosity.¡±
"Of course not, Your Excellency." Sebastian explained calmly, "In fact, it is just a tragic failure. You see, I unfortunately died during the ritual of summoning my demon pet. Due to a small accident, this thing happened to fall in the center of the magic circle, replacing the raven that was supposed to appear, and became mydemon pet"
"This thing is actually a demon pet?" The Lord of the Tower asked in surprise, "So does it have the ability of a demon pet?"
"Thanks to the goddess, at least part of it is still preserved. There is still a spiritual connection between me and it similar to that of an ordinary magic pet. When I hold it, my feelings will indeedBe more alert, more alert. Sebastian shrugged and said in a helpless tone, "But as you can see, its effect is still inferior to that of a truly free-moving Demon Pet." Perhaps the only advantage is that because it still exists in the form of an item, maybe if I have the opportunity in the future, I can add some powerful enchantments to it. By then, maybe it will become a unique magic pet. "
"Hahaha, you can see clearly." The Lord of the Tower found it interesting and couldn't help laughing. He even comforted him a few words, "Don't worry, you became a magician at a young age, so your talent is not bad. . The magic pet is dispensable to you. It is not as interesting as this crystal with self-awareness. I think you should not summon the magic pet again. Breaking the link with the magic pet is harmful to the soul. It¡¯s not worth it if it hurts a certain amount.¡±
"Thank you for your advice, I understand." Sebastian smiled shyly and bent down gratefully.
"Okay, in that case, I won't waste time anymore, let's get started." The Lord of the Tower held up the crystal with his left palm, drew runes one by one in the air with his right hand, and said with a smile, "Smart items don't Duojian, this is also the first time I attach focus to this kind of thing. If the magic conflicts and fails, don't be disappointed."
