Chapter 143: Tower of Fantasy with a Thousand Faces
He was so good, he didn't do anything and didn't purify any nightmares, but he was suddenly rewarded with ten Holy Light Marks by the Skeleton Prince......
This left Annan very confused and at a loss.
Although this nightmare, there are indeed many elements of "betrayal".
β¦β¦ But the purifier of this nightmare is not Annan.
Your old man is not doing his job, so come here to watch my broadcast...... By the way, I also gave a void tip.
Judging from the reward given by the person in the mirror, this reward is quite a lot. It's half the size of the person in the mirror.
Is there something wrong with that?
"You don't really want me to be the pope......
Annan's face was complicated.
Not to mention, Annan is really the holder of the holy deed who betrayed the angel Angelo. In fact, he is the Pope of the Skeleton Half...... Although he didn't want to take the job himself.
Sensing from the back room that the ritual was over, Nefertari stepped out of the room.
Her expression was a little complicated.
Looking at Annan, Nefertari asked in a low voice, "Is it over?" β
"It's all over."
Annan replied.
He looked at Nefertari, whose brows were shrunken and somewhat restrained, and couldn't help but laugh: "You don't have to. It's not your problem, it's not even about you at all. β
Annan was not enough to push everyone who was even the slightest bit close to Trisino to the other side.
Although Nefertari still refers to Trisino as a teacher to this day, they are not in a group. Nefertari himself is innocent...... She is also the one who is being used, but her relationship with Trisino is deeper.
Even though she knew that she might be used or even deceived by Trisino, she couldn't completely forget the teacher-student relationship for a while.
This is normal.
If she can completely abandon her old feelings in the blink of an eye, Annan will have to be wary of her.
Rather, everything is just right.
"Seti the Healer, aka Professor Ash. He is also the soul of today's 'Professor Wolf'. β
Annan said slowly: "The two of them are the same person, but they are not using the same name...... You know what I mean. β
ββ¦β¦ I understand. β
Nefertari nodded slightly.
She even knew a little more than Annan.
The idol wizard has cut off a part of his name - this is not the first of Trisino Setti's creation, and it is not even troublesome. I just want to keep the severed names alive...... On the contrary, it is quite an easy thing.
Normally, a severed name would become a lifeless spell. I can use these spells at any time to switch my mind by myself.
She hesitated, but still made up her mind.
"Teacher, he ...... In fact, he is not a native of the underground. β
Nefertari said softly, "He grew up in the Church...... And graduated from the Tower of Fantasy with a Thousand Faces. When he was still a silver-level wizard, he also served as a 'dealer' in it for a few years. β
ββ¦β¦ Tower of Fantasy with a Thousand Faces. β
Annan frowned slightly and muttered in a low voice, "No wonder." β
He knew that the spell of "Self Style" was inherited from the [Tower of Fantasy with a Thousand Faces].
This is the Wizard's Tower, which mainly teaches the Idol School and the Shaping School...... But it is not known as a wizard's tower.
Except for wizards, other transcendents and ordinary people call it the "Tower of Lies".
And the apprenticeship period of this wizard tower is exceptionally long.
As long as you don't advance to the silver level, you will always be an "apprentice". And when you reach the Silver Tier, you have to serve the Wizard Tower for several years before you can leave.
- It's a wizard's tower as dangerous as the "Lava Forbidden Tower".
Compared to the Tower of Fantasy with a Thousand Faces, the Black Tower of the Sawa, which only exists in the depths of the poisonous swamp full of methane, is even considered a safe zone.
With the exception of the Zedi Black Tower, the Jade Tower, and the Blue Diamond Tower, the other wizarding towers are more or less dangerous.
The most dangerous thing is to destroy the most mainstream inheritance of the school, the Lava Forbidden Tower.
The apprentices of the Lava Forbidden Tower, if they get too close to the core area, can be killed by the aftermath of the spells of the high-ranking wizard at any time; If it is too far away, it may be licked and swallowed by activated magma elements; Even during class, there may be a sudden realization of a classmate...... And then it blew up.
And the classmates who sit with this enlightened classmate will also die very randomly.
The Tower of a Thousand Faces isn't as dangerous as in the Lava Forbidden Tower, but it's not much the same.
It is the Wizard's Tower, which inherits the "dark side" of wisdom.
Mentors, or "dealers", teach their apprentices more than just spells. There are also conspiracies, trickery, murder, fraud.
It is not only a teaching institution, but also a "place of entertainment". It attracts many gamblers who are eager to "change their lives against the sky".
It is a life casino where you can bet or trade with others on illusory things such as "luck", "lifespan", and "loyalty" as bets or rewards.
In addition to the complete ban on any form of "direct attack".
Whether it's cursing the other person with rituals, increasing the favor and trust of others with the Soul Snatching spell, or using the Sculpting spell to transform into another person, using the Prophetic Spell to predict the future, and other tricks to make a difference in the game - as long as they are not discovered and exposed by the other party, then they are all allowed.
There are only three absolute rules for Tower of Fantasy.
First, the chips in each game must be of equal value, that is, the chips of both sides must be judged by the Wizard Tower to be of the same value before the game can be played; And only apprentices can initiate gambling, while outsiders can only choose to accept or not to accept it.
Second, if an outsider enters the Tower of a Thousand Faces, he must win at least one gamble before he can leave; And if any of the outsiders' debts are not settled, they will never be able to leave the Tower of Fantasy.
Thirdly, all wizards who belong to the Tower of Fantasy, whether apprentices or "dealers", must wear a "mask" when they are in the Tower of Fantasy.
It's some kind of protection mechanism.
If someone finds that they are "not wearing a mask" and reports it to the tower owner, they will be immediately stripped of their status as an "apprentice" or "dealer" and will be considered an "outsider".
The apprentice can leave the Tower of a Thousand Faces at any time, but cannot return after leaving; And if the apprentice advances to the silver level, he can choose to become a "dealer", that is, a mentor.
A "Dealer" cannot engage in any form of gambling as an initiator or responder, but at least one Dealer must be present as a supervisor for each game. The dealer can take any percentage of the winner's commission according to the prior agreement of the three parties - usually this commission is around 5%, but there are a few exceptions.
When the dealer leaves Tower of Fantasy, he needs to return the mask and pay "one-third of the chips he won" as a deposit for the mask, and he can still receive the mask when he returns next time.
Otherwise, the next time you return, you will be treated as an outsider.
Generally speaking, the Tower of Fantasy is a sacred place for wizard apprentices to deceive outsiders and use their wisdom to plunder their lifespan, luck, memories, skills, and other illusory things in order to grow themselves.
That's where smart people with bad intentions aspire to.
But to say that there is no deception between wizard apprentices at all is also false - wizard apprentices can also start a "duel" like other wizard apprentices, as long as the other party is willing to accept it, they can still gamble.
The only thing that is absolutely fair is just the "chips".
There are even a few gods who "play" in Tower of Fantasy with a Thousand Faces and follow the same rules. Because the chips offered by both sides must be of equal value, unless they are on top, it is still safe for the gods.
In order to prevent some gods from becoming angry, the Holy See of "Miss Good Luck", one of the twelve righteous gods, was built at the gate of the Tower of a Thousand Faces.
Or rather...... The entrance to the Tower of Fantasy is in the backyard of Miss Good Luck's house.
ββ¦β¦ Even the 'tragic writer' himself has been waiting in the Tower of Fantasy with a Thousand Faces for a long time, disguised as outsiders. Waiting for the apprentice to start a game against him. Naturally, there is no friendship between the apprentices of the Tower of Fantasy...... The seniors are also happy to watch this kind of excitement. β
Nefertari said.
The usual image of a tragic writer is a middle-aged werewolf who is nostalgic for gambling or drinking, wearing a purple robe, full of alcohol, and a decadent and sloppy face.
If anything, when did Trisino Seti begin to believe in tragic writers......
"βthat can only be at that time."
