Chapter 311 Let's Do 2 Big Questions

Typhon Empire, Southwest Frontier.

The winter rain mixed with tiny snowflakes kept falling, splashing a chaotic curtain in the dim light of the evening. Get hazy.

In this blurry and hazy world, the impoverished border villages fell into darkness early, and the mountain people who had no money to buy lamp oil could only hide in the dark room in this bad weather, while relying on the little stove The fire kept warm, while looking at the ancient black minaret standing on the top of the mountain with a little horror.

The windows at the top of the black minaret are emitting a strange dark red light, and ominous dark clouds are shrouded above the top of the tower. The chaotic rain seems to be summoned by those rays of light, making the whole world become dark and damp. .

That crazy old magician was doing those terrible things again - the superstitious mountain people closed the windows uneasily one by one, whispered about the gods they believed in at home, and hoped that the curse of the black magician would not come. on oneself.

At the top of the magic tower, Mary and several other apprentices did not know what the superstitious and ignorant villagers in the mountain village were thinking, and even if they did, they had no interest in paying attention.

These apprentices are arranging the laboratory nervously, placing all kinds of magic materials in the correct places according to the instructions of the instructor. A large brazier is burning in the center of this stone-made room, and a red flame of unusual color is jumping in the brazier. , that flame is like blood shaking in the air.

The old magician stood in the center of a magic circle beside the brazier, and while injecting magic into the magic circle, he stared at the movements of each apprentice with his gloomy eyes. He was not wearing that black robe, and the artificial nerve cord ran from his spine. The position spread out, slowly squirming behind him, like a poisonous snake.

An apprentice accidentally shook his hand when throwing amethyst dust into the brazier, and the sparks shot out ripples in the air. The apprentice immediately looked at his mentor in horror, but the old magic The teacher just glared at him fiercely: "Be careful! You bastard!"

The apprentice heaved a sigh of relief and hurriedly continued the work at hand with a more cautious attitude.

Mary used a special tool to pour the liquid mixed with ore powder, demon blood, and magic grass juice into the rune groove on the floor, while sneaking a glance at her mentor.

Since the last "connection", the state of the old mage Daniel has become more and more wrong.

Although he always acted crazy in the past, punishing apprentices for no reason, and doing all kinds of creepy experiments, but this time the old mage is not the same as before - he seems to be After being greatly frightened and under a huge but unspeakable pressure, the whole person seemed extraordinarily neurotic. He drove the apprentices to set up countless spiritual defense circles in the magic tower almost without sleep, and still on himself. Engraved with countless new runes, he had to meditate for a long time to fall asleep, and more than once woke up in nightmares...

The other apprentices don't know why, but Mary suspects that this series of abnormal performances are related to the "connection" made by the tutor last time.

The mentor said he made a deal with a horrible being...so it's all because of that deal? It was that "terrifying existence" that scared this powerful magician to such an extent?

What a terrifying monster that must be...

Mary didn't dare to ask the tutor for details. She could only do her work silently with her head lowered, and prayed that she would not make mistakes in the process and would not be punished by the old mage, and she knew that other people might think the same.

Finally, all the magic runes have been set up, and the brazier and instruments used for the ceremony are in the correct position and state. The old magician glanced at the situation in the laboratory and waved his hand anxiously: "Go away! "

The apprentices quickly left the laboratory one by one, as if they had been granted amnesty.

"Mary! You stay!" The old mage's vicious voice came from behind.

The young low-level female mage trembled involuntarily, but she did not dare to disobey the order of the tutor, so she could only try to calm her heartbeat, then slowly turned her head and came to the old mage obediently.

"You, stretch out your hand!"

Mary obeyed the order almost numbly, raised her left hand and handed it over, and then she watched as the old mage grabbed her arm and stabbed her arm with a dagger.

At this moment, she almost pulled her hand back, but in the end she forcibly stopped this action that might bring terrible punishment.

After the sharp pain, the female mage's blood flowed out of the wound and floated eerily in the air.

Daniel sketched a few runes in the air with a blood-stained dagger, and the blood from Mary was pulled and floated to the brazier in the center of the room, where it was quickly swallowed by the flames inside.

"Okay...Okay..." The old mage murmured nervously, "Mixing the sacrificer's blood into the ritual process should be able to transfer the extraterritorial wanderers to the sacrificer...plus the surrounding Misleading, defensive runes, I'm safe, I'm safe..."

Before Mary could hear what the old mage meant, she was pushed hard behind her back: "Go, stand in the middle of the circle, hurry up!"

Mary glanced at the magic circle, judged from the knowledge of mysticism she had mastered, and then remembered what her tutor had said before, and finally woke up to what this terrible old mage wanted to do——

This old man wanted to deceive the terrifying existence with whom he had made a deal, and he wanted to use himself as a sacrifice, as a scapegoat!

But she had no time to resist, she had stepped into the magic circle, and a powerful force had firmly sucked her in place!

And even if she wasn't sucked by the magic circle, she knew that the result would not change, she didn't dare, and couldn't resist...

Daniel watched the dark red runes light up one by one, while the most silent female apprentice on weekdays stood obediently within the circle, and he couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

The time he agreed with the extraterritorial wanderers is coming soon, but he has to make one last struggle - he has already arranged dozens of layers of protective magic circles in this mage tower, and has set up a large number of them on himself. 's protection spells, so much protection, may be enough to resist the arrival of wanderers from outside the realm...

And he also used Mary as a misleading medium to push into the circle, which is also a layer of insurance.

What if extraterritorial rogues discover this "fake"?

Then put all the faults on this female apprentice, that is, she broke into the magic circle without authorization at the critical moment of the ceremony, which caused trouble to the great foreign wanderers...

Daniel felt that his mind was swollen, and his thinking was slowly chaotic. He looked at the female apprentice in the circle, suddenly a little confused, wondering when the other party became his apprentice, wondering why he was standing here, wondering about Why would I hurt an innocent child...

A few messy and broken images suddenly popped up in his mind. He saw a younger self standing in a dilapidated mage tower, and saw a little girl who was only about ten years old rashly running in front of him. to prepare food for the little girl...

Daniel was stunned for a moment, and immediately rushed up to save Mary, but the moment he took action, his mind fell into chaos again.

Endless spell research, the magical power of the eternal sleeper, the joy of seeking truth and achieving great success...

He looked at Mary viciously, waiting for the moment when the protections he had put in place kept the rogues out.

Then, there was a sway in front of his eyes, a boundless world composed of clear sky and boundless water quickly unfolded around him, countless huge metal platforms floated to the surface, and the outsider stood with a smile on his face. In front of him.

The protective measures he had set up had no effect at all—Mary, who was misleading, was of no use at all.

"Lord... my lord..."

The old mage's always chaotic thinking finally woke up in this virtual world. He instantly realized how stupid his actions were, and tried to remedy it.

However, Gawain didn't care about the attitude of the old mage at all, and he didn't even realize what protection the other party had done before——

Because he didn't connect to the old mage through "invasion" at all. When he kicked the other party out of the network last time, he left an open port in the other party's mind, and also dug a corresponding backdoor on the network...

This is also one of the results of his research on the spiritual network technology of the Eternal Sleeper for a period of time.

He believes that those eternal sleepers who have always focused on improving their personal strength and still only know how to protect their own minds with traditional psychic protection spells will definitely not be able to realize this new operation based on network architecture...

The old mage looked at the "extraterritorial wanderer" in front of him with a little surprise, and a doubt appeared in his heart - why is this inhuman being in front of him not angry? Wasn't his own defense and misdirection an offense and betrayal to him?

Gawain finally noticed the strangeness of the old mage and asked casually, "Why are you nervous?"

The old mage was stunned for a moment, and quickly lowered his head: "I... No, I just felt a little apprehensive because I was summoned by you again."

He suddenly understood and understood why the outsider in front of him would ignore his "little actions".

Because this powerful existence didn't feel those little resistances at all...

The dozens of layers of spiritual protection barriers in the mage tower, the countless protective runes on her body, and the specially arranged ritual scene of Mary, who was the bait, added up to the hindering power that could be perceived by "outside wanderers". degree……

"Don't be nervous, let's sit down and talk slowly." Gawain waved his hand to create things such as tea tables, seats, tea and snacks, and instructed Daniel to sit down.

Daniel sat down cautiously, because of his guilty conscience, he didn't even look at Gawain.

He heard the indifferent voice coming from the opposite side: "I have some things for you to do."

"You just order..."

Gao Wen smiled and showed a pile of books and drawings in his hand: "Don't worry, let's do two sets of big questions first."
