Chapter 0450: The Mysterious Tower Master
The reappearance of the tower's owner also caused a slight shock in the pattern of Oneros City.
At this moment, I don't know how many people are peeping at every change in the tower in different areas and in different ways, but the dense magical aura and the thick tower body block a covetous gaze.
Viscount Rudis walked briskly up the spiral staircase to the lookout with some confusion. His attention was so preoccupied with thinking about it that as he was about to reach the top of the lookout, he tripped over the wooden steps and nearly fell. This mistake scared Viscount Rudis into a cold sweat, and also made him temporarily suppress those messy thoughts.
Dispersing the guards who were staring at the top floor, Viscount Rudis held the battlement in his hand and looked out into the north side. As a towering behemoth in a small city, the mysterious tower doesn't need much eyesight to be able to clearly see the dazzling magical aura on the top of the tower.
The Resident Mage is back!
Although he had been mentally prepared, Viscount Rudis was still a little apprehensive when it really came to an end.
The last time someone inquired, it was also said that the guild had no intention of stationing mages in the tower again in the short term, but in the blink of an eye, the mysterious tower had already been stationed again.
"I need to get in touch with this mage who suddenly appeared in the tower as soon as possible, and try to get a good impression!" Viscount Rudis, who was groaning, heard the sound of hurried footsteps stepping on the stairs behind him, and when he looked back, the old butler who had served the family for decades caught up panting: "Ryan, you came just in time!" Hurry up and send my invitation to the Mage's Tower, and then prepare a rich gift. By the way, bring the turquoise that was put in storage last month...... By the way, by the way, remember to pick a few chefs with better skills......"
Some of the old butlers Ryan hurriedly answered them all, wrote them down by heart, and before he could even breathe, he turned around and stepped up the stairs again.
At the same time, the various hidden forces in the small city also moved when they heard the news, and many representatives of the forces either went out in person or sent representatives, and hurried to the mage tower in a carriage with heavy gifts.
However, at this time, the young Master Li Xun was in the reception room on the second floor of the tower, carefully inquiring about Kokar's previous affairs. From the history of the tower over the past 100 years, to the basic situation of the city of Oneros, to the actions of previous owners...... There is no matter how big or small, no matter how big or small the time is, the young mage also asks where he wants to go, but he asks Kokar, who claims to be the head snake of the ground, sweating profusely and short-hearted.
Although this Kokar's personal strength is a little worse and he is a little lazy, he is familiar with the city of Oneiros and the tower. Through Guò's dialogue with him, Li Xun basically outlined the responsibilities and authority of a tower owner.
The tower is indeed nominally his, but in some respects, it also bears some necessary additional obligations. For example, the first floor of the tower must be kept open to the public as long as it is not in wartime, allowing mage apprentices and full-fledged mages to rest or replenish supplies. The magic hut belonging to the Mage Guild must also maintain a basic supply of materials to the outside world at all times, and the share depends on the size of the mage tower.
Of course, these are just the details, and the most important task of each mage tower is to ensure the normal operation of the teleportation circle. For example, due to the large scale of the Isdir Mage Tower, there are two teleportation arrays, inside and outside, and the teleportation array located inside the tower will be used as the exclusive teleportation array for the owner of the tower, and will not be open to the public. The teleportation array located in the plaza outside the tower is the guild's public teleportation array, which needs to be kept on standby at all times to provide teleportation services for all guild mages in need.
Of course, there is a high cost to enjoy this service. It's not a mage with a lot of money, so he doesn't dare to be so extravagant. The fees received have a clear price standard and are not allowed to be changed at will. The fees collected will be divided between the master of the Mage Tower and the guild. With this rule, almost all Mage Tower owners will be happy to open the public teleportation array in their jurisdiction.
However, as the owner of the mage tower on the deterrent side, it is also obligatory and necessary to help the nobles in their jurisdiction manage their territory, and provide magical support in some necessary military operations (crusade against bandits, extermination of beasts). Of course, this spell-supported Cheng dù is the intimacy between the owner of the master tower and the local nobles.
After all, providing one or two magic scrolls is even if it provides spell support, and the direct mages under him can also be regarded as providing spell support.
Therefore, based on this degree of freedom, the local nobles are of course more willing to have a good relationship with the owner of the Mage Tower, so as to obtain more protection.
After the inquiry, Li Xun waved away the only mage apprentice and began to discuss with Cialis the priorities and priorities he should handle. After all, Hillis had traveled alone in the Kingdom of Breland for many years, and both the geographical power and the sophistication of people were more feasible than the life experience imagined by the young mage.
And the ghost girl is not idle, since the young mage gave her the corresponding operation authority, she has been meticulously cleaning.
Of course, the sanitation and cleaning work in such a huge space is not completed by her alone, even if she is exhausted. So when she pulled out a dozen steel golems and magic structures from the Tower's permission list, the Tower Guards were sadly transformed from guardians to cleaners.
After all, the entire Arcane Tower has not been activated for more than half a year, and although the defense mechanism that maintains the minimum operation efficiency can block the intrusion of thieves and adventurers, it cannot block the pervasive dust.
Instead of having the patience to clean up the area bit by bit, she ran straight to the top floor of the Arcane Tower, and then borrowed the overflowing magical energy from the Arcane Tower to temporarily open a small hole leading to the water elemental interface. As a result, a huge amount of pure water elements quickly poured down from the top floor, washing over and over again on all floors. And these steel golems took heavy steps, holding the huge rags modified by the ghost, and pushed down the floating ash on the surface of the floor.
Anyway, the more important facilities and areas in the Arcane Tower have corresponding protection mechanisms, and they don't worry about being flooded at all, so the ghost girl boldly lets it go.
It was just that the young mage and Cialis were talking on the second floor, but they heard that there was a flood outside, and a wave of dirty mud was swept down from the top floor with a huge amount of dust.
Cialis covered her mouth and smiled, her delicate face full of laughter. This phantom girl is really bold and reckless, and she started such a big battle without saying hello. If it weren't for the young mage casting a spell to block the door to the reception room, this muddy wave would have washed the owner of the Arcane Tower out as well.
Li Xun was also helpless, so he could only swipe his fingers, and with the authority in his hand, he opened a huge light door at the opening of the tower on the first floor, so that the turbidity current rushing down was transmitted to the north three hundred miles away. It was a wooded area near the Filas Mountains, so it must not have caused much danger.
This turbid wave came and went quickly, almost half an hour, and the entire Arcane Tower seemed to be "washed", clean and clean, revealing the hard floor hidden under the dust with mysterious patterns etched.
This is worthy of the former Arcane Tower, and even the basic structure material is a strange thing that Li Xun can't recognize, not to mention the arcane network extension of the Arcane Tower. Mysterious rune lines and arcane ciphertexts can be seen in almost every inch of space in the Arcane Tower, which shows that as the owner of the Arcane Tower, he can control almost every inch of space here.
In comparison, the extension rate of many modern mage tower spell networks is about 30%-80%, and it is difficult to achieve complete control without leakage.
However, when the young mage used his authority to perceive all the space of this arcane tower, he was surprised to find that most of them had lost their response.
It seems that under thousands of years of erosion and damage, some arcane networks have been broken, leading to the failure of these branch nodes. And the previous owners of the towers did not have enough arcane knowledge to repair and replace them, which led to the loss of function of the entire arcane tower year by year, and the efficiency continued to decrease.
Each Arcane Tower will have its own magical soul at the beginning of its construction, and once the core is damaged and this light of wisdom is extinguished, it will be difficult to return to its heyday even if it is completely repaired in the later stage.
At that time, this arcane tower may become a "ruined tower" completely.
Although Li Xun didn't have the ability to repair an arcane tower thousands of years ago, one of his subordinates could do it. So after some air communication, a portal opened in front of the young mage, and one or two dozen arcane golems came out of it one after another.
One of the Arcane Golems was noticeably smaller and more "delicate" than the rest, and at first glance it was not intended for combat use. Behind this arcane golem was a young girl in a black cut-out leather suit.
Xu was some kind of delusion, looking at this obviously delicate and pitiful young girl, the young mage actually had a strange feeling that the beast of the wilderness was staggering towards him, and the oncoming rage, cruelty, and evil almost suffocated him.
The girl stood among a group of steel golems, her long black hair scattered in the air, a few strands of hair obscuring her fierce purple eyes. The pale face had no expression, the bright red and cold lips were slightly open, and the black Gothic cut-out leather coat was put on her body, but it was inexplicably suitable, and a bit of mystery emerged invisibly.
Of course, the most memorable thing about this strange girl is her indifferent eyes and cold temperament, and there is an eternal vicissitudes and tyranny on her body, as if she can turn into a brutal beast at any time and swallow the enemy in one bite.
The young mage stood up from the sofa in surprise, rubbed his eyes vigorously, and looked at the one in front of him carefully again.
As the panorama penetrated deeply, a large number of strange numbers fed back from his body, making his mouth open wider and wider, and in the end it was enough to stuff two eggs.
