Throne of Magical Arcana

Chapter 317 Establishing an Image

Karina tried her best to get rid of the power of the old witch and the truth behind the things she vaguely perceived, and asked Lucien with a polite smile: "Sir, are you also a legendary strong man?" ? But none of those famous mid-level magicians fit your image."

Karina, who came from a good background and successfully became a magician, has always been a proud and confident girl, but Adam is a "legendary figure" outside the magic tower. In the eyes of Karina and others, En also became a legendary strong man, so he had to deal with it politely.

Lucien smiled and shook his head: "I'm just an unknown magician, not a legendary figure, and I came just one day earlier than you. You can call me Lucien."

"Come one day earlier? Mr. Lucien, aren't you from our place?" The other tall and beautiful girl Ophelia looked at Lucien in surprise, and the same was true for Alva, Brad, and Karina. expression.

Their eyes always give Lucien the illusion that he has become a rare beast in the zoo, surrounded by humans outside the iron railings, so the corners of his mouth are slightly raised: "Have you never seen outsiders? The people here They should all be descendants of outsiders, right?"

Perhaps because she realized that her curious and probing eyes were too extreme, Karina smiled with embarrassment and flushed with shame: "I'm sorry, Mr. Lucien, we really haven't seen outsiders. Although many families with a long history have ancestors Stories from the outside world, trapped here and unable to get out, but for hundreds of years, people in cities and villages have thrived, fought with wild beasts around them, fought monsters, and gradually developed and grown, but they have never encountered outsiders.”

Adam laughed beside him and said: "Actually, there have always been, but unless they are swallowed on a large scale, a small number of outsiders will first choose to hide their identities and mix into human society, such as me, and many outsiders are either killed by the forest Killed by the monsters in the game, or directly caught by the old witch, such as the unlucky guy Lucien."

"Old witch?" Karina, Alva, Ophelia, and Brad backed away from Adam almost simultaneously.

How dare he directly call the owner of the magic tower an old witch? I and others only dare to curse in my heart! Although he used to be tyrannical and domineering, he is now a prisoner. Isn't he afraid that the old witch will arrest him and punish him severely, or even kill him?

Seeing their actions as if avoiding monsters, Adam understood that they were worried about being implicated, and spread his hands with a wry smile: "It's okay, the old witch never cares about what we say, she only cares about her experiments and appearance, don't you think they didn't respond? ’ He was speaking of some of the servants who guarded the prisoners.

Seeing Adam staring at himself and the others, the red-faced servant stared back fiercely: "Adam, if you continue to discuss this matter, I will beat you severely with a whip!"

He didn't dare to report to the witch with the title of "old witch". According to legend, a long time ago, a servant was eager to do great work and reported to the witch that there were experimental materials secretly calling her an old witch. As a result, the witch repeated in a cold voice through her teeth After saying "the old hag" several times, everyone who said the word was put to death, whether they were prisoners or servants.

The reaction of the servants dispelled the worries of Karina and the others, and they all sighed: "Mr. Adam, you are an outsider, no wonder you have such a powerful strength when you appear. Inference, those gentlemen who are similar to you should be the same. outsider."

Then, a strong curiosity surged in their hearts, and the young knight Brad couldn't help asking: "Mr. Adam, Mr. Lucien, what is the outside world like? Are there any poems and stories that are so beautiful?" ? Are there many strong men who are no worse than witches?"

Adam pointed to the thoughtful Lucien next to him: "I have been imprisoned for decades, and I don't know much about the situation outside. Let Lucien tell the story."

Several servants not far away stopped talking with each other and focused their eyes on Lucien. They were equally curious about the outside world, and life in the magic tower was extremely boring, so it was good to hear stories.

Lucien thought about something worthy of attention from Karina's words just now, and casually said: "The outside world is many times bigger than here, not only the dark and terrifying black forest, but also the emerald-like lake, Tall and straight mountains, golden harvest plains, crowded and bustling cities, buildings floating in the sky..."

Although it is only a rough description, the scenery completely different from here still makes Karina and the others listen with gusto, especially the city in the sky, the magic steam train that can gallop to high altitudes, and the completely unimaginable form of magic parliament , that inconceivable alchemy life made them yearn even more.

"There are so many wonderful places in this world, and there is a city in the sky." Karina looked at the silver moon in mid-air with blurred eyes, as if it was hard to believe that a city could fly there, and then she was faster than her companions. He asked enthusiastically, "Mr. Lucien, do you know how powerful the Magic Council is?"

Lucien looked at the several floors of magic towers above the terrace, and said calmly, "Magicians like the old witch can be seen everywhere in the Magic Council."

"It can be seen everywhere..." Even Adam was shocked by Lucien's description. In his impression, high-level magicians and sky knights are rare no matter where they are. No matter how powerful the Magic Council is, Wouldn't it be possible for a middle-level magician to encounter high-level magicians at any time?

Lucien said with a smile: "What I said is the truth, at least for me." Of course, the premise is that I can get Holm's crown ring like me and get the approval of the high-level elemental will.

Then, Lucien emphasized: "And there are many magicians who are ten times, a hundred times, or a thousand times stronger than her."

"Really?" Karina felt that this was beyond her imagination, and she, Alva and others looked at Lucien with awe and trust.

Seeing that the power of the Magic Council was deliberately flaunted and successfully made the prisoners in the desperate situation faintly regard themselves as objects that could be followed, Lucien nodded in satisfaction, looked at several servants, and said "arrogantly": "I have fallen into this situation this time. The place of imprisonment is because I sent a letter to the Dark Mountains for a certain lord, and maybe someone will come to rescue me in a short time. In front of the legendary magician, the old witch is like an ant, and she can be crushed to death as she wants."

The old witch was almost a lunatic, and she was stuck here and couldn't get out. She didn't worry about the legendary magician at all, but her servants were still normal people. His face changed slightly.

Lucien didn't continue to show off, because empty talk is hard to get others to believe, it's better to stop it properly and let the servants, Karina and others use their own imagination to fill in the gaps, and they don't need to really believe it, as long as they can hold it in their hearts. Just leave this impression and interfere with their judgments and decisions at critical moments. Anyway, this is the icing on the cake.

"Legendary magicians? How powerful are they?" As a magician, Karina asked this question almost instinctively.

Adam replied for Lucien: "It can easily destroy this magic tower, nearby cities, villages, and the surrounding dark forest..."

He who had never seen a legend make a move answered according to his own imagination, startled Karina and the others again, and made the servants' eyes flicker.

After being silent for a while, Karina looked at Lucien with enthusiasm for the Magic Council and the legendary magician: "Mr. Lucien, how many rings are you a magician? What is your position in the Magic Council? The old witch How many rings are there?"

Lucien sighed softly: "Don't call me Mr., we are all prisoners, there is no distinction between high and low. I am only one of many middle-level magicians in the Magic Council, and there is still a long way to go to high-level magicians. There is nothing to be proud of, and the old witch probably has seven or eight rings." It is enough to reveal the strength of the middle class, and there is no need to reveal the specific level.

"Intermediate magician? You are indeed an intermediate magician!" Karina said in surprise. In this region where resources and knowledge are severely lacking, intermediate magicians are very rare and it is even more difficult to advance than a great knight. Therefore, it is confirmed that After Lucien became an intermediate magician, Karina, a girl who aspires to the magic path, showed reverence and enthusiasm just like Alva, Brad, Ophelia and others when they saw Adam.

But Ophelia, Alva and the others couldn't help but take a few steps back, and said palely, "The old witch has seven or eight rings?"

The strength of Karina, a second-ring magician, is obvious to all. How strong will the seventh- and eighth-ring magician be? Why did she hide in the magic tower and didn't rule the nearby territories?

Seeing that they seemed to be guessing, Adam nodded affirmatively: "The old witch is not interested in ruling, but only crazy about magic and experiments. She spread the rumors about the magic tower."

The curtain of light that shrouded her past life was ruthlessly lifted, revealing the darkness and despair below. Karina quickly fell from the joy of seeing a mid-level magician into a seemingly endless abyss.

"Are we just lambs raised in captivity?" Ophelia asked herself with difficulty and despair, seeing no hope for life.

Lucien ignored their bewilderment, and directly asked the question that came to mind just now: "When did the legend about the magic tower appear? When did the magician and knight disappear for the first time?"

"Probably more than five hundred years ago." Karina replied uncertainly.

Lucien didn't ask, but speculated: "The old witch was imprisoned before the establishment of the Magic Council? Then she may not know arcane art. If she can become her assistant and show her a few 'magical' experiments, Maybe it will explode her head directly. However, the old witch is not mentally normal, it is difficult to communicate and arouse her interest, so other methods are the most important."

For Lucien, the most important thing at the moment is to get rid of the bracelet of confinement and the collar of the forbidden magic. The easiest way to do this is to find a place with an anti-magic circle if you don't have mental power and blood power. magic item will be useless. Unfortunately, so far, Lucien has not found an anti-magic field in the magic tower, so he can only think of other ways.

After exchanging some information, the mood of Karina and the others gradually stabilized. Anyway, they were all caught as experimental materials, no matter how bad it was, and Lucien, who had a scary "identity background", With mid-level magicians around, they will inevitably have some hope.

…………

Two days later, when Lucien was still digging the stone bricks on the right wall with his fingernails, the old witch unconventionally sent someone to take him to the magic laboratory.

Along the way, Lucien carefully observed the flesh and blood puppet knights guarding key positions and the sharp and bright giant axes and giant swords in their hands.

The door of the laboratory was opened from the inside, and Lucien saw Ophelia was tied to the dissecting table, and the old witch was holding a dark mirror to look at her withered and wrinkled face, chanting strange words. Mantra: "Mirror mirror, tell me, who is the most beautiful woman in the world?"

"Huh?" Lucien, who almost sang along, felt more and more weird.
