Chapter 510 Don't Approach

( ) The fact that Laciman's flagship "Boratini" turned on the ship naturally couldn't escape the eyes of the coastal ships of the Karen Kingdom, but before the news reached the royal family, Houdini had already used Merlinsera " The banner of “Visiting Friends” gave a legitimate reason for visiting—since sooner or later he would be discovered, there was no need to hide it, which Houdini knew very well.

Charles II, who received the news two days later, was naturally displeased, but he was obviously too politically intelligent to yell at him: Politically speaking, the Rahiman Kingdom did not need to report to him for anything. Saying this at this time just shows that the other party still cares about the face of the royal family. After all, in terms of strength, the Rahiman Kingdom really doesn't have to be afraid of Karen... because Charles II doesn't even have a fleet to attack across the ocean.

"Tell me, why did they suddenly name and go to Elson?"

Looking up from the letter, Charles II frowned slightly, staring at the royal magician Gary in front of him and asked: "A ruined city buried in the forest, is it worth his special trip?"

"Your Majesty... This should be because the things left by the high elves made them curious. For example, broken magic circles, buildings, etc., but to be honest, these things are not of much value."

Gary actually didn't know the reason. Although the news of "artificial rainfall in the floating tower" was shocking, the spies who had infiltrated the royal family in Elson would never have thought that their letters were either intercepted by Camilla or directly tampered with. , so at this time these news were only disseminated in a small area in Efta, but they did not enter the royal family's intelligence system at all-those spies thought they had reported the news, but they thought that these news were all falsified mistakes information.

So at this moment, Charles II and a group of royal magicians still know "Elson" at the "abandoned city" stage. I have to say that Camilla's "information shielding" work is really hard work.

"What is the value of the things left by ancient civilizations? I guess that Houdini is planning to make another fortune before leaving..."

Charles II is not a mage, so he made such a conclusion after listening to Gary's opinion-in fact, his thoughts are the same as most people's. No one knows how sensitive this group of mages from foreign countries is to "magic news". The news of "artificial rainfall" appeared in the Rahiman Kingdom. I am afraid that the public opinion in the whole country would have exploded at this time. How could it be as stagnant as the Karen magic world at this time?

"Okay, you step back first, go and start studying those magic circles after completing the handover task, and digest these things as soon as possible."

Speaking of the harvest of this state visit, Charles II has changed his thinking after the initial pain, and now he thinks that the business is worth it—and in such a good mood, he is finally interested in turning his attention to Efta, which he drew a red line on the map...

"Raman,

Go and get Mirno over, I'll see him this afternoon. "

Charles II gave orders casually, thinking about the orcs in his mind. He is well aware of the fact that "the orcs are about to invade", but in his eyes, this is not a matter of the sky falling, but an opportunity...

Since Everta wants to close himself, Charles II is naturally happy to let them stand in front of him as cannon fodder.

"Orcs don't know how to negotiate. After all, children still don't know what they are facing."

He murmured, and even saw Efta being occupied by orcs and then recovered by his own army—the time had come to reunify the kingdom, and next, it was time for him to line up his troops.

"Report, report, Lord City Master, the loading operation of the No. 53 floating tower has been, has been completed, waiting... er, waiting for the bomb to be reloaded!"

It was not a soldier in armor who spoke at this time, but a mage Lime in his thirties dressed in a robe. He was a member of the "Magic Research Institute" in Elson City some time ago. Although his magical attainments are ordinary, he is extremely talented in "magic circle testing", so he was selected to be in front of Roddy at this time. Come and take part in this "experiment".

Lime usually doesn't stutter when he speaks, but at this time, every word of his words is filled with tears - because he is standing on the tallest central floating tower in Elson City.

Lime's robe was rattled by the wind blowing at an altitude of more than 400 meters. In April, Efta no longer had the chill of spring, so although the wind was strong at this time, the temperature was still suitable—and the place in front of him , Rody was looking down at the so-called "No. 53" test object, oblivious to the magnificent scenery in front of him and behind him.

After all, he has been on many high-rise buildings before, and Roddy has no need to sigh for the impression similar to the CCTV Tower and Tokyo Skytree—but few people in this world have climbed up to 400 meters in the air. The experience of overlooking the earth. Not to mention the panoramic view of Elson City and the forest below, even the edge of the forest in the distance, the open field, and even the corners of the Gondola Mountains and the Nehemia prairie are clearly distinguishable... Lim didn't feel that he had any fear before. High, but at this moment his legs are still trembling uncontrollably...

With his own virtue, and Bi Luodi's calm expression, he really couldn't accept it.

"Don't be nervous, come on, lower your head and check these things. There should be more than ten minutes."

The words "Experimental device No. 53 has been prepared" floating in front of Rody's eyes have been replaced by the words "Ready to load". This thing sounds like some kind of cannon weapon, but in fact, "No. 53" does not have a long barrel, but a swirl-shaped circular array - it is half a meter thick and two meters in diameter, perfectly embedded In the card slot reserved by the floating tower. The surface of the typhoon-like shape is full of uneven magic lines, and the center is a round hole with a diameter of 20 cm for "filling".

Those "ammunition" were placed next to Roddy's feet, and they looked like simple crystalline spheres.

The surface of the floating tower is a standard circle with a diameter of about 30 meters, and there are no guardrails around it. It always reminds Rody of the top temple of Jialin Xianta in "Dragon Ball". However, the ground here is not flat, but full of grooves and magic lines, revealing a complex and obscure arcane beauty.

"City, City Lord, the inspection is over, it's over."

Rhyme tried to focus on the runes at his feet, his voice still stuttering.

"Oh, wait a minute, according to the schedule, the signal should come in a few minutes."

Rody's hair was a little messed up by the wind, so he simply turned around and sat facing the wind, with his legs stretched out from the edge of the floating tower and dangling boredly, holding the pocket watch in his hand, a little lost in thought.

Looking at this posture, Lime felt a little weak all over. You must know that the ground of Rody's adzes is four hundred meters away from him. Even if he falls freely, it will take a long time, but the Lord of the city seems to be... Dozing off ?

"City, Lord City Lord?"

"Huh? What's the matter?"

Rody was indeed sleepy. After all, besides practicing archery, he also had spell training. He encountered a spell problem in the past few days and had to stay up for two days to solve it. Naturally, his spirit would not be very good.

"This... there seems to be a signal in the distance."

Rody looked towards the southwest side of Efta and saw a puff of white smoke rising from the edge of the forest more than 30 kilometers away, so he lowered his head to check his pocket watch and said, "Okay, the personnel have been evacuated to a safe place, five minutes Get ready, test with the calibrated ammunition first, and then replace it with live ammunition."

"Obey, my lord."

Lime was trembling and ready to reload, but he heard Rodido ask: "By the way, I remember telling them that we will set up a magic guard nearby. Your research department is involved in this matter. Didn't forget right?"

"No, no, this is all done according to what the city owner said."

"Oh, that's fine, get ready."

Rody waved his hand, turned his head and looked into the distance and continued to be in a daze.

And in the city of Elson below, Camilla looked up at the floating tower at the top, folded the signed letter to be signed by Roddy, and muttered casually: "I don't even sleep when I am busy with the experiment, alas ..."

"Wait a moment!"

In fact, without this warning, the advancing Rahiman envoy convoy would also slow down because of a sharp whistle sounding ahead.

Houdini frowned and walked out of one of the carriages, and shattered the source of the sound with a wave of his hand. With a crisp "click", the magic guard post in front of the road was directly removed. With a wave of his hand, the fragments of the simple stone slabs of the magic circle floated in the air. Houdini reached out and took a look, and muttered, "Why is the technique so rough?"

On the way here, he has already seen the floating tower floating above the entire forest. Such a height cannot be achieved even in Laximan—you must know that the floating height of the capital of the Capital City Magic Council is only 170 meters. High, and must be on the ground to reduce energy consumption unless the time of war.

But this poor magic guard sentry in front of him made him very puzzled. A city that can "artificially rain" and build a 400-meter floating tower can use this kind of junk to make up for it no matter how you look at it?

Originally, he thought it might be something from other forces, but after seeing the words "Elson City Institute of Magic" written on another fragment, Houdini's doubts became more and more serious...

"Sir, do you need to move on?"

"This sentry post is probably only used to scare monsters, don't worry about it, let's move on."

Houdini didn't think too much about it, but he didn't try to put together the other fragments on the ground carefully either—if he had been patient, he would have seen this sentence written on the other fragments:

"Magic Experiment Area" and "Keep Out".
