    Chapter 133 Things happen again, a small gift for senior brother

    The hot summer heat wave has gradually dissipated, and the first ray of coolness in autumn has quietly invaded Sorens.

    Farmers in the manor outside the city have already begun to prepare to harvest this year's wheat, planning how to celebrate the harvest festival later.  Most of the citizens in the city are engaged in handicrafts or small businesses. There is not much difference in business throughout the year, but there is little response to the most solemn celebration of the farmers.  As for the nobility, as long as they have enough jingling coins in their pockets, every day is a holiday.

    **Master Tower, public meditation room.

    The ethereal smoke, which seems both illusory and real, is like a psychedelic wind spirit, dancing lightly in this room full of complex patterns and lingering for a long time.  A young man with short broken hair had his eyes closed tightly, his face expressionless, and he was meditating.  In front of him sitting cross-legged is a small and exquisite brass incense burner. A short stick of incense is lit in the incense burner, which is the source of the intoxicating smoke in the room.

    Time passes minute by minute, and the incense in the incense burner becomes shorter and shorter as it burns.  Finally, after a slight shiver, the incense burned out.  After a few minutes, the smoke in the room slowly dissipated, and everything was clearly visible again.

    I don¡¯t know why, the young man¡¯s brows suddenly tightened, and his originally indifferent face looked strangely dignified.  After a few breaths, this solemnity quickly turned into effort. After a few breaths, the unconcealed disappointment was fully visible on the man's face.

    With a helpless sigh, the young man opened his eyes and moved his body, which was slightly stiff from sitting cross-legged for too long.

    "Even if I shyly asked for this meditation incense from my teacher, did I still fail in the final attack? Alas, if this incense could be three more inches, no, only two inches more, maybe today  Maybe I can succeed in one breath It is worthy of the standard of a formal magician, and it cannot be fooled at all." The man shook his head and said to himself, "However, although the incense is used up, my spirit  The amount is roughly enough. Let me rest for a few days to warm up. With just a few more attempts, I will be able to firmly stabilize the spell slot space to a level that can accommodate the complex structure of the three-pole spell. Haha,  Just wait and see, how can I let you leave me behind and focus on beauty in front of you?"

    Slowly standing up from the couch, the man pushed the door open and left the meditation room.  Although he didn't know exactly how long he had been practicing hard here, his already weak body and hungry stomach reminded him that this period of time must have been quite long.

    "You're out, Mr. Crowley." Perhaps he noticed the movement when the door opened, and a male waiter recruited by the Master Tower walked over quickly and intelligently.  The young boy looked at the man in apprentice robes with admiration, and tried hard to suppress the dream in his heart that "one day he would be as lucky as him to be accepted as an apprentice by a mentor", "What's the matter?"  Is there anything I can do for you?"

    "How long have I been in there?" Crowley, the young man, asked as his eyes swept across the glass windows in the hall - it was pitch dark at the moment.  His voice sounded dry and hoarse after not being wet for a long time.

    "Judging from the time records, you have been in the meditation room for a full day and a half. During this period, you have not taken any of the meals delivered to your door." The waiter replied with admiration, and then  He immediately showed a caring look, "Look, do you need to drink some nutritious herbal porridge first?"

    "Forget it My physical condition is not suitable for using magic to season it now. I'd better not be sensitive to that sour water." Perhaps recalling the complex taste of the special herbal porridge, Crowley couldn't help but taste it.  He shuddered, shook his head and refused, "By the way, has anyone left me a message?"

    "Yes, Mr. Crowley. Your friend, Mr. Sebastian the Magician, came to visit you in the evening." When he said this name, the waiter straightened his waist unconsciously.  Show respect.  This young magician who has been in the limelight recently is simply a living myth to those at the bottom of the Master Tower. "He seemed to be planning to invite you to go to his territory at the beginning, but  You happened to not have come out at that time. When he learned that you were meditating, he asked for details, left something as a congratulatory gift, and left quickly."

    "Invite me to his territory? It's really interesting. How could that guy be interested in his palm-sized territory? There must be some mystery." Crowley laughed dumbly.  It has to be said that he has been in contact with Sebastian a lot, and he has already figured out some of the other person's character.  According to Sebastian's proud personality, ridiculously high vision, and the meager annuity that a few knight fiefs can provide, the young magic??It's impossible to take a fancy to it, let alone take it seriously.  After thinking about it, Crowley looked at the waiter and asked, "Do you know anything?"

    "It's a coincidence that you asked. I'm afraid I've guessed some of the reasons why Sebastian the Magician is looking for you." The waiter looked around crookedly and said in a mysterious voice, "You should have heard this too.  You said it, that gentleman was assigned a trial task some time ago, right?"

    "You're talking about the druids in Taxaros? So what's going on?" Crowley asked with some confusion.  For the past few months, he has never left the Master's Tower, concentrating on meditating to advance to the next level. Naturally, he is not well-informed.

    Although the content of this mission has not been officially announced, the difficulty of defending the tower spread among the magicians and apprentices in private within a few days.  After all, this mission was originally entrusted by the Earl's Mansion, and Sebastian's hiring of a team of adventurers was almost an open matter, and it was not a secret at all.

    "I heard that due to the felling of the oak forest, the Sebastian magician's territory was also in trouble with druids. It seems that the territory did not take advantage of it, so I asked your Excellency to go back and help.  . But I see, these people are probably sent by the druids from Taxaros to find out. Otherwise, not long after receiving the mission from the druids thousands of miles away, my territory will be destroyed.  How could it be such a coincidence that you got into trouble with a Druid?" The waiter spoke so clearly that Crowley nodded secretly, "Magic Sebastian originally planned to invite you to go with him. There are so many people.  What a strong formation. Unfortunately, unfortunately for you, he had to go back alone. He may be on the road now. Oh, he told me to convey that you don¡¯t have to chase after you after you come out. "

    "That guy is very confident." Crowley chuckled and shook his head helplessly.  He naturally understood what Sebastian meant. That guy must have felt that he could handle the problem alone.  Oh, let him go By the way, didn't that guy leave something behind?  Crowley was not polite and asked, "I understand. What kind of gift did that guy leave?"

    "Yes, I will get it for you right now." The waiter quickly walked into the counter, carefully took out a small thing from the drawer of the small cabinet inside, turned around, walked back, and handed it to Crowley respectfully.  into his hands, "That's it, sir."

    Crowley held up the gadget in his palm and watched it carefully.

    This is a small piece of broken crystal fragment, which peeled off from nowhere.  At first glance, it looks very ordinary, almost the same as some pendants embellished on ordinary clothes. Even if someone is willing to spend money to buy it, it only costs a few silver coins.

    However, Crowley knew very well that since his little junior brother, no, Sebastian, who had officially become a magician, said that this piece of crystal fragment was a gift to him, then this gadget would never be used.  Probably some junk worth only a few silver coins.  But if not, then what exactly is this thing?  If I guessed correctly, it should be a magic item, right?  However, the identification technique, which can detect detailed information about magic items, takes an hour to cast, and Crowley is not ready at the moment. If he wants to use it, he must at least wait until dawn to prepare the casting materials and prepare the spell again.

    Staring at the crystal fragment twisted on his fingertips, Crowley vaguely seemed to feel that there seemed to be something hidden inside the fragment.  Somehow, something suddenly moved in his heart, and he gathered all his mental power to probe indirectly towards the crystal.  He believed that since Sebastian did not give any warning, this gadget must belong to the category of harmless magic items, and it could never be something like the Fireball Necklace, which is at the top of the list of dangerous magic items.

    The Fireball Necklace is quite famous in certain circles of spellcasters. At first glance, it looks like just a gold necklace with several small gold balls strung on it, but in fact, these gold balls can be easily removed individually.  When the golden ball is thrown hard and falls, a huge explosion will occur, just like the effect of the fireball, one of the most famous three-pole spells.  As a magical object, the Fireball Necklace is easy to use - just throw it out, and it is powerful - the effect of the spell is equivalent to that cast by the maker himself, and it can almost be called the best for killing people.  However, its only drawback is that if the caregiver of the necklace is hit by a magical fire attack, the unused gold balls hanging on the necklace may explode at the same time.  It is conceivable that when multiple fireballs explode at the same place at the same time, the caregiver in the center may not feel very happy This is why the fireball necklace is included in the list of dangerous magic items.

    When Crowley's mental power penetrated into the crystal shards without any hindrance, a piercing scream of "buzz" exploded in his ears.  It was as if a magic trap had been triggered.The same thing happened, and the mysterious power contained in the crystal fragments was immediately activated.  This mysterious power instantly wrapped around Crowley's mental power like a thread, vibrating at a specific frequency at extremely high speed before he had time to react.  His mental power was aroused by this fluctuation, and he seemed to be a little out of control, and spontaneously oscillated with the former.  The mental energy that had been somewhat dried up after a long period of meditation was miraculously restored in just one breath.  Crowley's mind turned, and the restored mental power became surprisingly easier to control.

    This gadget is actually more effective than meditation incense?  Crowley came back to his senses and looked down in surprise, but unfortunately found that the crystal fragment had been completely broken into powder and was obviously no longer usable.

    It turns out they are also consumables. No wonder Crowley finally understood something, but now

    "This guywell, let's fight" He threw this sentence inexplicably, Crowley turned around and went back to the meditation room, leaving only the dumbfounded little waiter.  .  .
