Chapter 265: Change
"City of Waiting", Mage's Tower.
The mage tower is located behind the Royal Palace, far from the city center and undisturbed on weekdays. The tower is twenty-five meters high, the whole is white, the window is decorated with black stone slabs, and there are many black frames at a glance; It is thicker at the top and bottom and slender in the middle, like a fair girl showing off her small waist. Scattered soul fires were attracted and swirled around it to form a galaxy map.
A big fat man was looking up at the Mage Tower on the ground, judging the Mage Tower. Every time he said two words of praise, he would say something provocative, and people would not be able to figure out what he wanted to express. He had a fat head and big ears, and he laughed, well, to put it mildly, and laughed a little hateful, just because his eyes were either naked sycophancy or naked contempt. He is Sam Montgomery, who committed suicide in order to join the Twilight Empire, and was a noble lord in the kingdom of Olquila, who was good at intrigue and power struggle. Originally, he was an ambassador in Sala Monroe and was at ease, but unfortunately, the sudden arrival of the Knights of the Iron Hoof forced him to return to the Paradise of the Dead.
This kind of person is born for power, and does not have any other skills, and may be like a fish in water in human countries, but in the Necromantic Empire, they will be reduced to a waste. Why? Because necromantic creatures respect the strong and are the most pragmatic, power, status, and the priority distribution of wealth must all come from strength, such as combat professionals, necromantic beasts worship Frankie, such as soldiers worship Skoll, and researchers worship Brian. The White Bone Tyrant didn't think too complicated when building the high-rise buildings of the Twilight Empire, he was meritocracy, so his entire team was the power center of the empire, and every backbone went out in response. Sam Montgomery couldn't get along with these backbones, so he didn't get real power.
In fact, aristocracy is not synonymous with corruption. In the early days of each country, the noble patriarchs were respected meritorious and capable ministers, and they were rewarded by the king for their meritorious deeds, and their descendants were overshadowed; After a few hundred years, the reasons why the descendants of the family become corpses are multifaceted and complex, and they are not simply degraded by forgetting the glory of their ancestors. Over time, the king feared the prestige of the nobility and took back much of his power from the nobility, compensating for it with wealth. There is an old Oriental saying that says: live in sorrow and die in peace. It is precisely because of the comfort that the aristocracy forgets the duty of fighting on the battlefield and worrying about government affairs, pays attention to etiquette, food, balls, and the only thing they learn from childhood is to socialize (a mixture of hypocrisy, fraud, utilitarianism), and finally become the moths of the state.
Then again, not only did the necromantic creatures dislike Sam Montgomery, but even the humans hated him, not because he was talentless, but because he was a traitor for glory. Although it is clear within the Twilight Empire that this man did not contribute much when attacking Orquila, the outside world agrees that it was his betrayal that led to Orquilla's fall (at least this reason is more credible than "the Twilight Empire won by strength").
"Master Diesel, are you there?" At this time, Sam shouted under the tower. The magician's stuff was so strange that he couldn't figure out how to communicate with the people in the tower, so he just shouted.
A corpse witch hurried in from afar and bowed to Sam: "Lord Diesel has joined Your Majesty in the defense of Gilly Hills. β
Diesel is a soul mage with a sensitive identity and defection from the Dark Church, so Sam immediately treats him as the same kind of person and wants to be close to him. This mage tower, which cost hundreds of thousands of dollars and is comparable to a small city, was built by His Majesty for Diesel, which shows how much His Majesty attaches importance to him.
"He joined the army? Why didn't I get notified of such an important matter in advance? Sam was displeased, and his round face wrinkled into a wrinkle.
"This is a military secret, and I have violated His Majesty's majesty by divulging it to non-military people." The corpse witch bowed his head and said, not letting the other party see the soul fire in his eyes.
"Oh, yes, you should keep it a secret from me. Stand down, I'll go find Brian. Sam smiled and waved goodbye to the corpse witch amicably. He summoned a Skyweb spider, moved it to the spider's back with great difficulty, and pointed to the joint scientific research center in high spirits, and left in the dust.
Sam isn't stupid, it's just that he's been sitting in high positions for too long and is sometimes more willing to make a fool of himself.

"City of Waiting", a joint research center.
It took a long time for Brian to send Sam Montgomery away, and it was nothing more than what Sam should do. Although Brian really couldn't think of any position suitable for Sam, he still arranged an idle errand - "corpse procurement". If it weren't for the fact that no corpse ship would enter the port in the future, Brian would not have let Sam take this position, and he would be removed as soon as the turmoil passed. In addition, Brian decided to keep his preparations a secret so that Sam would not bother him all day.
As soon as Sam left, Chief Jon arrived, and brought with him a little human boy who looked like he was two or three years old. The little boy had short yellow hair and a fair complexion; He wears a lace scarf around his neck and a diaper underneath. He took the hand of the manager, a toddler, his face was innocent, and his eyes were very dark.
Where did the children come from? Without wearing a "necromantic mask", aren't you afraid of causing irreparable damage to your body? Why did Director Jon bring him to the Research Centerβ
Brian's soul fire shook violently, which was already an extremely gaffe for him, but he only stood up suddenly, pointed at the child, and shouted, "Your Highness Annigill! "Everyone's soul wavelength is unique, and even if something happens to the original baby, Brian can accurately identify the other person's identity from the soul. The problem is solved: only Anigil does not need to wear a "necromantic mask", and only Anigil will be brought into the research center by Jont!
But......
Yesterday it was just a little baby, why is it a three-year-old now?
Chief Jont said with a smile: "Mr. Moaning is really powerful, under the [Streamer Flying], His Highness has grown up very fast. It's just that His Highness hasn't been able to adapt yet, and he still drools and pees his pants. β
The little boy nodded vigorously, and his fleshy little hands tugged at the diaper: "I have to grow up a little more, this thing is really stupid." β
Brian's soul fire shook again: "Your Highness, Your Highness...... Where did you learn the word 'stupid'? β
"Brother Rudy taught me!" The little boy yelled crisply, saliva flowing from the corners of his mouth, which may have been taught by Rudy's brother.
"His Highness Rudy must not be allowed to enter the nursery." Brian immediately looked up and said solemnly to Jon.
"I feel the same way."
Annie Gill had not yet learned to walk, but she climbed into Brian's chair, propped her hands on the table, and looked curiously at the small objects on the table, such as inkwells and quill pens. He didn't point to something and pronounce its name out loud, which he did "as a child" and now "grown" and disdain to do. He's smart, you can't measure his brain by age.
"According to this trend, probably tomorrow or the day after tomorrow, His Highness Annikir's life will be back on track. I wish Your Majesty could see this. Chief Jont looked at the little boy with relief.
"He'll see." Brian said, "He'll see when he comes back." β

"City of Waiting", a joint scientific research center, a large laboratory dedicated to the study of the "origin of evil".
Due to the temporary suspension of all research projects, even the analysis of the "origin of evil", this large laboratory will be temporarily mothballed. While the other researchers were evacuated, Strom was the last to leave and was responsible for locking the door. Before leaving, he glanced at the "source of sin", sighed, and left.
At this time, there was a sudden sigh in the "Source of Sin": "It's finally gone." Well, this place is really weird. Filthy, evil, although the environment is not very comfortable, but it is passable. However, why didn't this original sin appear in the 'Huaxia' ocean? β
The black water in the container no longer transforms into an evil symbol, but directly transforms into a small human form. It is not accurate to say that it is humanoid, it should be said that it is a mixture of people, sheep and bats, giving people a sense of abhorrence. It had no legs, only two hooves, two oddly long goat horns on its head, a pair of bat wings on its back, and a thin arrow tail. This little man flapped his wings and walked around, which was simply vivid.
If Brian could have understood here, this mutant humanoid form was a miniature version of the demon.

When necromantic creatures are busy preparing for war......
The Grand Arena, the full "gospel" competitive tournament, moans without disease against a watershed player.
"Ahh Ahh As soon as he appeared, the thaumaturgist sneezed twice in a row, and then scratched his head: "Someone is talking about ~~~ about me behind his back?" β
"Great God, do you look down on people?" The other party looked angry. "Qiankun" is not reality, the cold in reality can't be brought in, and the great god's physique is so good that he won't catch a cold at all, so he feels that the other party's sneezing is teasing him.
"Hmph, you're not qualified to talk to me."
He moaned and still smiled, and his cane shook in front of him. With him as the center, four glittering walls of gems were erected around him, each fifteen meters wide and fifty meters long, like Tetris that was about to reach the top! There is also a jeweled ceiling of mixed colors above the four walls, and these lights and shadows enclose a huge space.
If the enemy's skill is duplicated with your own skill, each time you repeat it, you will increase your intelligence by 1%, increase your mana recovery speed by 1%, and increase your mana limit by 1%. The duration is the number of skills * level * 1 second. Adds 1 cubic meter of field space for every 3 skills.
As soon as the field of disease-free moaning opened, it was invincible. He muttered, "Did they find a problem?" Oops, I hope June doesn't come back......"
