Chapter 422: Bare-chested Playing with the Art of Carving
The passage that connects the quiet and dark twilight forest with the sad swamp overgrown with reeds is an eerie and bleak trail called the Upwind Trail. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
It's full of strange trees, rocks, and deserted......
But Karazhan stands right here!
It was an ancient magic tower, built in secret by Tirius** a long time ago.
The reason why this remote southern mountain region was chosen at that time was because of the extremely powerful magical energy field here, and it was here that successive Guardians had secretly watched the movements of the demons in the world of Azeroth for thousands of years.
It's a pity that the current Guardian and the last Guardian is the most powerful human in all of Azeroth, Medivan was destined to be controlled by the evil of Sargeras from birth, and this is not to blame him, but his mother Egwene, because this is his innate imprisonment.
Today, the Mage's Tower, which has been quiet for six years, is visited again.
Still high in the sky, 10,000 meters away from Karazan, Anyang saw the magical tower full of mystery.
It is a majestic tower, with a huge and ornate base and a tower body hundreds of meters high, beautiful and mysterious, undoubtedly the most perfect work of the craftsman. It was backed by mountains and twilight forests, and in front of it was a sad swamp full of reeds and lakes. The circular building located in the center of the tower exudes such powerful magical energy that it forms a pale blue halo that radiates in all directions at a height of several hundred meters.
The magical energy is pulled by the energy field here, visible to the naked eye, like countless pale blue threads of smoke, being drawn into this magic tower.
From afar, a powerful aura came to my face!
Looming behind the Magic Tower, there is a castle-like building, or rather a small magic tower complex.
It's hard to imagine that a place so large enough to house thousands of people could have only two people, the Guardian and his butler.
Phew!
A hoarse chirp of an eagle pierced the sky, signaling the arrival of the griffon.
Lothar slowed down a bit and shouted to Anyang, who was flying in front, "Hey, listen, Master Travel, I shouldn't have brought you here in the first place, and I don't know if Medivan welcomes you as a strange guest, so when you get to Karazan, stay down there with this nerd, and I'll go up and make it clear to Medivan that if he's not happy, you have to leave as soon as possible, got it?" ”
An Yang turned his head to look at him and didn't speak.
This only shows that he heard it, and whether he heard it or not is another matter.
The griffin quickly flew to Karazhan, but instead of landing under the Magic Tower, it flew between the main tower and the six tall annex towers of the Magic Tower, until it landed at the base of the tower, a flat ground tens of meters high and covering a very large area.
It's a flat area the size of several basketball courts, but it's just a corner of the tower's base.
Madison's butler, Morros, stood in the middle of the ground to greet them.
The white stone floor had become old with age, and there was even a lot of moss growing on the ground near the annex tower, and there was a lot of grass growing between the cracks in the square stone slabs, and it was obvious that Moros was the only one in charge of the chores, and he was a little overwhelmed.
The griffin flapped its huge wings, blowing dust on the ground and landing steadily.
It's just that it was originally called a behemoth, but in the background of this empty ground and majestic tower, it is like a small point.
Lothar rolled down, just in time for the butler Moros to smile.
"Lothar!"
"Moros!"
"Long time no see!"
"yes, look at you, you're not old at all!"
The two talked faintly, and Khadgar also came down from the griffon.
Then Anyang also turned off the thruster and slammed to the ground.
The little mage and the traveling mage and prophet looked up at the massive tower, one with remembrance in his eyes, the other full of novelty.
It would be unkind to say that this is a tower, but it is a complex of buildings, and it is very large. Regardless of the castle behind, the magic tower alone has the scale equivalent to a small palace, the huge and towering main tower, if it is not piled with books, it can definitely accommodate thousands of people, and the famous Oriental Pearl in the real world is far from being compared, which is an architectural marvel exclusive to this world.
Around the main tower, there are also six auxiliary towers with a height of more than 200 meters, which may not be huge from a distance, but that is because of the distance and the main tower body, in fact, these six relatively small, and much lower auxiliary towers cover an area that is not inferior to a playground.
In the original movie, because of the special effects technology and financial investment, the tower was not very detailed, more of a long shot, only a few seconds to reflect the grandeur of Karazan, almost in a flash, there are very few opportunities to really look at the tower in such detail.
That's why Anyang raised his head high, turned on the screen capture function, and observed this magic tower.
The architectural design is exquisite, gorgeous and beautiful, with a beautiful appearance, the corridors and pillars are staggered, especially the connection between the towers, like a sky bridge, and like a sky corridor between huge and towering buildings, and those intricate carvings, gold stone carvings add a lot of color.
As I said before, this is difficult to achieve in the previous life's architectural level, even if that world has reinforced concrete, with various construction techniques, but this is still a miracle that belongs to this world, an architectural miracle, and a magical miracle!
Although he was already standing on the pedestal dozens of meters above the ground, he still couldn't see the top when he looked up, only the circular building located in the middle of the tower, the magical energy field pulled a light blue magical power, exuding a mysterious light, reflecting the blue sky and a group of huge birds flying by.
Magnificent and magnificent!
The roar of a griffin echoed in his ears, as if to remind him that this was a mysterious and fantastical world.
As if he had only seen An Yang now, Moros squinted at him, a little surprised by this strangely dressed man covered in silver and white metal. There was no doubt that it was an airtight suit of armor that covered every part of his body in a streamlined pattern, and it was the first time he had seen it in his life for so long.
"Is this your friend?"
"Yes, this is a ...... This is a prophet who told me that I should come here. ”
Lothar's words were all on his lips, but he changed his words and did not say that he was a mage from another world.
"Prophet ......?"
Moros looked at An Yang again in surprise, but he didn't say anything, nodded and walked towards the magic tower.
"Come with me."
The four of them walked into the tower, and directly into the main tower.
According to the film's portrayal, even Khadgar, Medivan's apprentice and apprentice guardian, has never been here.
The light in front of him suddenly dimmed, and An Yang squinted his eyes and looked at it.
In the middle of the tower, as in the movie, there is a huge circular staircase, and the rest of the tower is a library-like place, filled with old bookshelves full of heavy books of all kinds, and other than that, the shock is indescribable.
Lothar frowned: "What about the others?" ”
Moros smiled and replied, "A lot has changed, and it's just me and the Guardian here. ”
Khadgar touched the nearest row of bookshelves and said to himself, "The energy must be locked here, and the knowledge ......"
Lothar asked Moros, "Where is he, Medivan?" ”
Moros stood on the circular staircase, did not answer, but quietly pointed upward.
Lothar leaned on the handrail and stretched out her head, looking up, but only saw the stairs of the stairs, and it was difficult to see the top, only a long exhale.
I haven't climbed yet, I'm tired first!
He glanced back at Khadgar and Anyang, and nodded at them, "You guys wait here." ”
An Yang smiled and bowed his head, and pointed at it by the way, meaning that you can go.
Khadgar had just reached out to touch an ancient book when he received a warning from Moros.
"Try not to touch anything!"
Khadgar hurriedly retracted his hand, glanced at An Yang, and as if to hide his embarrassment, he said, "I didn't know there were so many books here......
An Yang chuckled: "If you hadn't given up your oath in the first place, these would have belonged to you in the end." ”
Khadgar glanced back at him and fell silent.
No one spoke, and the place was so empty that only books were left immediately and it was eerily quiet, like a pin drop.
After a while, Anyang broke his calm and said, "Guess what Medivan is doing now?" ”
Khadgar thought for a moment, his expression looked wooden, then shook his head and said, "I don't know, maybe, he is studying magic, or reading books, or experimenting with some devices?" It is also possible that he is meditating, silently realizing the deeper meaning of magic. ”
An Yang smiled and said, "I guess, he's playing with art carving shirtless right now!" ”
As soon as he finished speaking, the sky above the tower seemed to shake.
Khadgar raised his head in a panic, and when he saw that there was no movement, he lowered his head and looked at An Yang in dismay: "How do you know?" ”
An Yang smiled and nodded with his finger: "You seem to have forgotten my identity." ”
Khadgar's eyes were still a little stunned, and he hung his head, muttering the word prophet in his mouth.
The heavy wheezing of Lothar above his head had long since disappeared, and the footsteps were gradually fainting, and he should be gradually approaching the height of the tower, where he would finish catching up with the shirtless Medivan in the rotunda in the upper half of the tower, and show the king's ring to summon the guardians!
Below.
The restless Khadgar began to shuttle between the bookshelves, without Moros present, he was a little unscrupulous, casually visiting everywhere, occasionally encountering books of interest and taking them out to take a look, completely ignoring Moros's reminders.
As for Anyang......
He admires Khadgar's character who is not afraid of things!
So he began to read the books of the Tower of the Guardians.
