Chapter 689 He Is Not a Prince, but a Son of Destiny
The Tower of Terror is indeed a tall tower. The five-story dilapidated tower is more than ten feet high and is surrounded by an abandoned house. I don’t know if it is to deliberately exaggerate the atmosphere of terror or if there is really no one to maintain it. This occupies an area of The abandoned house of more than ten acres is overgrown with weeds, dead vines and old trees are mixed with crows, and the dilapidated iron door makes a creaking sound when pushed open.
There were shrill cries of old crows, a mouse scurried out from the corner and ran away in the blink of an eye, the tenacious grass emerged from the stone road, and a frog jumped up and captured the small insect, but Shortly after landing, he was swallowed by a green snake.
Walking along the winding broken stone road, there is a small square in front of you. The water fountain no longer functions as it used to. A dirty goat-shaped sculpture stands there, with drops of turbid water dripping from its mouth. Falling, causing ripples in the pool.
The finger-length human-faced fish in the pool jumped up and caught the small insects flying in the air. It seemed to feel the vibration and knew that someone was coming. It immediately turned around and dived, leaving only faint ripples. Trying to find them accurately in the turbid water It's not easy, and the pool seems a bit deep.
The buildings in the house are very unreasonable. Except for the small square in front, there is only a dilapidated and scary tower. The other places are overgrown with weeds and desolate. I don't know what the original owner here thought. The overall layout is a mess.
There is a broken statue in front of the main entrance of the Tower of Terror. It looks like a horse, but there is a black horn on the top of its head. The patterns on its body are slightly ferocious, and its body is full of bones. Well, this is not a modification but According to the normal description, the ribs on the black horse sculpture are clearly visible. If the inside was not solid, one would suspect that the sculpture was a bone horse on fire.
"The gatekeeper stone beasts should appear in pairs, right?" Lilith stared at the stone sculpture for a full minute, and then turned her gaze to the other side of the gate, which was empty.
Little Will nodded slightly and stepped on the place where another stone statue was supposed to be placed. It was very solid!
"According to common sense, there should be nothing wrong with this, but there are many things in the wizarding world that cannot be inferred based on common sense." Although he said this, his eyes flashed and he looked around quickly, and finally turned his attention to the Tower of Terror, with a slight twitch in the corner of his mouth. twice.
It was obvious that it was not the first time for Susan, the red girl, and Vivian, the ice girl, to come here. They were not very curious about everything around them. Instead, they kept staring at Little Will, Lilith, and Wei Liluo, so they immediately noticed something strange about Little Will. .
"Teacher, have you discovered some great secrets?" Susan now admires this teacher who can see through the secrets of the eternal uphill and never-ending rivers around the city just by walking around. , but you just came here and discovered the secret of the terrifying tower without even entering the tower. Is it a bit too much?
"Is there any very advanced magic circle here? Well,
The one specially used to hone the mental strength of wizard apprentices? "Vivian immediately expressed her guess.
Since the eternal uphill climb and the never-ending river around the city are for the physical training of wizard apprentices, shouldn't there be a place dedicated to training the spiritual power of wizard apprentices? There seems to be a legend in the Tower of Terror that says that after experiencing pressure and working hard to survive, one's mental power is improved.
There cannot be meaningless facilities in the academy, so does it mean that this terrifying tower is included in the Nine Mysteries?
"Do you think that the academy is too comprehensive? The academy is only responsible for teaching, supporting and providing a platform. If you want to become talented, you have to rely more on your own efforts rather than taking advantage of opportunities." Xiao Weier warned the two girls very seriously. : "It is very dangerous to be opportunistic. Taking one step at a time and doing it steadily is the right way."
Lilith glanced at Little Will with a strange look, and secretly cursed, "It seems that you are the least qualified to say this. The blood essence of the vampire clan, the blessing of the soul singer, devoured the souls of the bloody demon believers, and finally ate them." A black dragon from hell, you are the one who relies on external forces the most, and now you are also using the Snow Wood World to help you practice the "Code of Creation". You have entered the level three years since you started practicing. It's like this that you actually have the nerve to advise others to play it safe and not to use help. external force?
Seemingly sensing Lilith's silent condemnation, Little Will shrugged and said, "Except for irresistible factors."
"For example?" Susan seemed to be very interested in improving her strength, especially opportunistic methods.
"For example, divine power and divine relatives." Xiao Weir added: "Especially divine power and divine relatives that match his own attributes."
"Teacher, you have to be realistic. People favored by God are very rare. Only people in the church can become favored by God. This path is unreachable for wizard apprentices like us." Susan stood up on tiptoes and patted Little Will's shoulders seemed to want to comfort him, a teacher who thought about opportunism all day long.
"I am the favored one of the goddess of night, earth and ocean, Lilith, the favored one of the goddess of dawn, Xiaoluo, the favored one of the goddess of elves. Although my level is very low, I am also at the bottom among the favored ones of the gods. It exists, but the divine power has indeed been obtained." Little Will's words made Susan's hands freeze, and Vivian was stunned and couldn't believe her ears.
"Dark Night Magic: Tranquility!"
"Morning Spell: Guard!"
Little Will and Lilith released two magic spells, and then stopped Xiao Luo from releasing magic spells on them. Xiao Luo's magic spells were too biased, well, they were biased towards attack. What if the two girls got too excited and ran away? Lilith and I had just calmed them down.
Susan felt the changes in her body and said faintly: "It turns out that there are such benefits in being born in the poor and backward Gods Continent. The two teachers are able to achieve what they have today, and the power of the gods and the favor of the gods must have contributed to it, right?"
"Half and half, mainly due to my own efforts." Little Will explained softly: "In the Gods Continent, I have five second-level wizards around me, who are proficient in astrology, alchemy potions, alchemy casting, construction witchcraft and miscellaneous studies, and they are all the type that I can learn as long as I want to learn. The highest level of the church members around me is only the cardinal in white, and there are only three or four who can fully cooperate with me. This is also one of the reasons why I chose the wizard's way instead of the church route."
Well, although it is only a very small part of the reason, it shouldn't be considered a lie to say so, right? Little Will looked at Lilith with a guilty conscience. The latter had a blank expression and seemed not ready to expose him.
However, this explanation did not make the fiery girl Susan and the ice girl Vivian feel relieved. Instead, they were more envious and jealous. "Are you the prince of a king? How come there are so many strong people around you? Isn't the Continent of Gods a barren continent? Aren't the people there very repulsive to wizards? How come there are so many powerful wizards around the teacher? Level 2 wizards are strong even in the academy."
"He is not the prince of the kingdom, but the son of luck. He is the type of person who will have good things come to him even if he sits at home." Lilith also felt incredible about Little Will's luck. She was able to achieve limited achievements, partly because of her close relationship with him, right?
"Ahem~, now is not the time to talk about this. Don't you want to know the secret of the horror tower? Then experience it yourself."
