Age of Adepts

Montenegro City.

This is a majestic city built on the hills.

All the buildings in the city are made of local specialty black steel stone, the surface is dark and dull, but the hard Yousheng steel. Black city walls, black buildings, black castles, the entire Montenegro city is as cold as the character of the mountain people here.

The native mountain people near Heishan City are all simple and diligent, but they have become extremely fierce and brave in the harsh living environment. They usually go to the fields to farm, and the food they harvest is enough to satisfy their hunger. During the agricultural break, they go to the mountains to hunt in groups, and the prey they hunt becomes the main source of daily meat for the mountain people.

It is this kind of strange life of half farming and half hunting that honed the strong physique and brave fighting spirit of the mountain people. The mountain people who walked out from here were all the best human fighters, and they became the most popular group in the imperial army.

Perhaps at the beginning of the construction, the builders did not intend to turn Heishan City into a beautiful mountain city with beautiful scenery, but regarded it as the strongest unfallen fortress. Therefore, the buildings in the city can hardly see the soft and luxurious atmosphere of other regions, and almost all of them are castles, fortresses and towers that can be used for military purposes.

Lena's 'residence' is located on the top floor of a tall stone tower behind the Castle of the Lord of Montenegro.

There is not only a wide interior space, but also a good open view. Above the tower-like top floor, there are huge open narrow windows on all four walls. Since there are no wooden windows to block, the howling mountain wind can freely rush into the hall, sweep away all unfixed items inside, and then slip through the window on the other side.

Of course, what they took away was the last touch of warmth!

At night, the hall on the upper floor of the tower was surprisingly cold. Even a strong mountain dweller would freeze half to death overnight if they did not have enough warm clothing.

However, at this moment, the disheveled and ragged Reina was sitting shrunken on the cold floor in the center of the hall, with her head buried between her knees, her thin and withered body trembling slightly. Whenever she tried to move herself, the alloy shackles that were as cold as ice on her feet would make a strange rattling sound.

The alloy shackles were tied to a silver chain as thick as an arm. The chain twisted and twisted, passing through a small hole in the center of the floor and deep into the building below. If you tighten the chain, you will find that the distance is just enough for Reina to walk to the stone window in the hall.

In addition to the alloy shackles, Reina was also wearing an iron mask to prevent her from spitting out the pebbles in her mouth. On Leina's wrist, there is also a pair of fingerless iron gloves. The countless cold and sharp iron thorns in the iron glove have pierced into her flesh and blood. Lena's movements are a little bigger, and the iron thorns will tear open the wound. Purple-black blood flowed out.

In such an open and cold place, Reina's body was covered only by a black robe that was too tattered to look directly at. At the moment when she couldn't condense the power of witchcraft to warm her body, the only thing that kept her alive was the wizard's powerful physique that was different from ordinary people.

Although Lena is not a body-training wizard, after advancing to the second level, she also has a physique of 11 points.

This made her body look inconspicuous, but it also had a vigorous vitality and recovery power that was not weaker than that of a giant jungle beast. With the torture and harsh treatment she suffered, other weak women would have died countless times. But apart from the miserable appearance of Leina, the fire of life in her thin body is still burning hot, and she is extraordinarily coquettish.

At no moment has Reina longed for power and power so much!

A fire burned in her breast, burning her soul day and night.

In the past, relying on her mother's power to dominate, she enjoyed all the glory and wealth in the world, and enjoyed all the beauties and beauties. Her life was unprecedentedly depraved and extravagant. However, at this moment, the karma of the past has become the sin that weighs on him at this moment.

In order to survive, in order to survive, she did so many things to betray the witches and sisters.

But five years have passed, and the rescuer she was expecting has not arrived, but her mental state has been completely desperate.

She knew that her wizard talent was not good, and it was her mother who spent a lot of resources to barely stack her to level 2. However, her luck was really good, she unexpectedly became pregnant in a naked party, and gave birth to Xue Fu who has a good talent for ice and snow.

And Lena, who thinks she has fulfilled her historical mission, becomes more and more lustful and extravagant, going to all kinds of extravagant banquets every day, sinking into the siege of all kinds of beautiful and strong men every day, even the witch she depends on for a living His artistic ability has degenerated to the point of appalling.

Otherwise, with the power of a second-level witch, how could she be captured alive by the natives of the plane so easily!

However, when she was suffering from self-injury, Reina raised her head abruptly, and her purple pupils looked at the sky above Montenegro through the tall and narrow stone windows.

Although her body is severely restrained, her elemental perception ability far surpassing that of ordinary people is still there.

But just now, she suddenly sensed a faint and strange wind element condensing point above Heishan City, and it was still cruising slowly.

Is it a naturally formed wind hole, or...

Lena got up from the ground without hesitation, ignoring the blood dripping from the spiked hand and ankle shackles on her body, and rushed to the narrow window, staring fixedly at an empty sky in the distance.

The silver chains pulled by Reina's violent actions rattled, which also attracted the attention of the paladins guarding her below.

With the sound of iron shoes stepping on the stone steps, a black iron knight led three armored guards into the hall along the spiral stone ladder in the corner of the hall.

Seeing Lena clasping the narrow window stone platform tightly with both hands, the silver chain behind her collapsed straight, black blood flowed quickly along the arms and thighs, leaving bloody footprints on the floor.

"What are you doing? Don't run to the window..." The young paladin shouted loudly as he looked at Reina with unconcealable hatred and disgust. The three armored guards who followed him even untied the long whip wrapped with wire from their waists, whistling and whipping towards Lena's skinny back.

ah……

The long whip whistled, and the whip flowers swayed and shattered the black robe on Lena's body, leaving a long whip mark on the mud-covered back.

Reina tightly grasped the edge of the narrow window with both hands, raised her neck and let out a scream that tore through the sky.

Because this scream was imbued with spiritual power, after penetrating the hall, it lingered around the tower for a long time before dissipating.

And in Leina's mental induction, the strange wind element gathering point floating above the sky seemed to perceive her screams, and began to slowly float towards the sky above the tower.

It was not formed naturally, it was manipulated by someone...

Seeing that Reina was unmoved by the whip, the three armored guards pulled the silver chains tightly one by one, pulling her away from the narrow window abruptly. Under the mutual strength of the two sides, the spikes of the hand and foot shackles sank deeply into the flesh and blood, cutting Lena's bones with a crackling sound.

However, at this moment, Lena's spirit was clearly in some kind of abnormal excitement, she couldn't feel any physical pain at all, she was lying on the floor like an epileptic, her whole body's muscles were twitching abnormally.

The three guards rushed forward, and the long whips in their hands fell on Lena like raindrops, making her bloody and bloody.

"Stay here honestly and confess your sins. Your meal for today has already been cancelled... If you dare to go crazy, you won't even have your meal for tomorrow!"

The young paladins selected by the Chapel of the Holy Light to watch Arena are all guys who hate witches extremely, or have been persecuted by witches, or someone in their family died in a witch rebellion, and only such guys will ignore the charm of Witch Lena Skills, faithfully complete the task.

As for the skin damage that Leina received was nothing at all, as long as she worked overnight, most of it could be healed again. And this is precisely what the paladins fear and envy the most!

After severely punishing Reina, the young paladin returned to the tower with three guards.

There is no way, the hall at the top of the tower is too cold, even with the physique of the black iron knights, they cannot withstand the fierce mountain wind. Therefore, when there is nothing to do on weekdays, the guarding paladins and guards are stationed in the tower below. Only when Reina caused trouble would they come up to punish her.

As for escaping... Lena, whose witch power had been consumed by most of it, was just a slightly stronger witch, unable to get rid of the spiked shackles and masks made of special metals, so there was no possibility of escaping.

And when the hall of the tower building became quiet again, only the whistling sound of the fierce wind passing by was left, the strange gathering point of wind elements had already floated outside the hall, as if to enter through the window.

"Don't come in!" Lena barely propped her body up from the floor, and communicated in a spiritual secret language: "There is a holy light circle hidden under the floor of the hall, and any concentration of elemental power will trigger an alarm..."

The formless and qualityless 'wind' seemed to have understood Leina's warning, and froze in the void outside the window.

"Who are you? Tess or Itariel?" Reina asked sadly.

She also heard a little about what happened to the witch sisters.

After all, when the paladins want to torture some of the witch's internal secrets, they will inevitably reveal to her some of the current situation of the witch's remnants. And she naturally knew that the reason why the paladins brought her to Montenegro City was to catch the last two powerful third-tier witches.

"Hehe, Your Excellency Reina, long time no see!"

To Lena's surprise, the spiritual secret language transmitted from the strange wind spirit turned out to be a male voice. And that familiar voice and tone made Reina overjoyed.

"G...Grim...you are...Master Greem..."
