Arcane Lord

"Mr. Muyan, please rest assured, I will take good care of your tribe."

Master Leonard was smiling all over his face, but Shado saw the restraint and fear in Master Leonard. Perhaps Lord Saville also had a headache for a foreign high-level bard.

After a while of greetings, Master Leonard looked at Xia Duo, "Xia Duo, do you have anything else to deal with? If not, we will return to the Mage Tower."

"No more, but-" Xia Duo looked at Mu Yan.

Mu Yan waved his hand, "Go and find your own magical path."

"Thanks!"

Sha Duo bowed deeply and followed Master Leonard away.

…

It was almost noon, and Xia Duo followed Master Leonard silently, still thinking about Mu Yan. Meeting Mu Yan is definitely the biggest opportunity Xia Duo has encountered since traveling through time.

"Xia Duo, Mr. Mu Yan asked me to take care of you, but the Mage Tower has its own rules. All I can promise is the apprentice level magic knowledge. As for more, you need to fight for it yourself."

When they walked to the square in the center of the town, Master Leonard said something abruptly, the smile that had been on his face disappeared, and his tone was quite harsh.

"Yes, thank you Master Leonard."

Xia Duo never felt that the Mage Tower would give him special treatment because of Mu Yan. He originally planned to be a servant, but now he was overjoyed to be able to become an apprentice.

The only difference between an apprentice and a servant is that they have less time for chores and have the opportunity to ask questions to the official mage.

Without Mu Yan's help, if Xia Duo wanted to cross the threshold of a servant and become an apprentice in the Mage Tower, he would at least need to accumulate the money to purchase a 0-level magic, learn the magic and pass the assessment in the Mage Tower.

He couldn't ask an official mage for advice on how long it would take him to learn a magic. Xia Duo had no way of predicting it. The 20 gold coins needed to purchase a 0-level magic were enough for him to save for a long time.

…

After Leonard made the point, he didn't say a word. He just slowed down a bit when passing the statue of the great arcanist Saville, and then resumed his original speed and walked towards the mage tower in the northwest.

Today is already the third day after the Midsummer Festival, and all celebrations will end on this day. Shado noticed that the clergy of Amaunata had already appeared in the square to organize civilians to clean up and clean the roads.

This time I went to the Mage Tower. Unlike the crowded one three days ago, the square was very empty. Moreover, it was a foregone conclusion that Xia Duo would join the Mage Tower, and I felt more relaxed. I made sure not to fall too far behind Master Leonard. At the same time, he enjoyed observing everything in Savile Town.

After arriving in Savile Town for more than half a year, Xia Duo has never been as relaxed as he is today. But the ease is short-lived, and the next life in the Mage Tower will definitely not be easy.

…

Tower of Time - the official name of the Mage Tower in Savile Town. Of course, this name was not given to it by its original owner, but because for a long time, the Mage Tower has used the magic runes on the top of the tower as a symbol for all who can see it. People indicate time.

For nearly a hundred years, I have become accustomed to calling it, and the lord seems to have acquiesced in this name.

The Tower of Time is located in the northwest of Savile Town. The Wolfburg River winding from the north turns a "factory" bend in Savile Town. The Tower of Time is at the corner of this "factory".

From the Tower of Time to the east is the villa area, to the south is the west area of ​​the town, from the west area to the east are the square, the east area of ​​the town, and the south area is south of the square.

Shado followed Master Leonard, crossed the square, and walked along a stone road. The tall wizard tower rushed towards him. The closer he got, the more he could feel the pressure from this almost miraculous creation.

Looking from the outside, the diameter of the Mage Tower is at least 10 meters. It is hard for Sha Duo to imagine how people in this era could build such a tower that is nearly 50 meters high - there are no cranes or other tools in this era.

The dwarf Broto once participated in the construction of the Tower of Obsolescence. Whenever he talked about it, he looked proud, but he was unwilling to disclose the details, saying that it was a secret of the craftsmen.

Shado couldn't force a dwarf to reveal his secret, but he still kept it in mind. If he needed to build a mage tower in the future, he could contact Broto.

Of course, if you want to build a mage tower, you not only need craftsmen, but the most important thing is a mage. Unfortunately, before the great arcanist Xavier could complete the Tower of Time, he disappeared into the exploration of other worlds, leaving a mess. It took the Savile family busy for two generations before the construction was barely successful.

But for Xia Duo, no matter what kind of mage tower it is, as long as it allows him to learn magic, it is a good mage tower.

…

Arriving in front of the mage tower, I heard Master Leonard say, "Tower spirit, command: return."

Without any sound, a door opened in the Tower of Time. Looking from the outside, the inside of the door was pure black and nothing could be seen. Seeing this scene, Xia Duo felt a little sick.

The memory of three days ago comes to mind. It is this door that you have to pass through once when you enter or leave the mage tower, but the feeling is uncomfortable, as if you are soaked in deep, lightless water and unable to breathe, accompanied by Feelings of dizziness and nausea.

Anyone who has experienced it once will never forget this feeling.

Sha Duo noticed that the corners of Master Leonard's mouth also twitched slightly. He thought that this feeling was not exclusive to him, not even formal mages were immune.

"Come in!" Master Leonard said and walked in first.

Xia Duo followed immediately. When light appeared in front of his eyes again, he had already appeared in a spacious hall, and his vision exceeded the ten-meter diameter of the mage seen outside.

Xia Duo suppressed the feeling of nausea, and heard Master Leonard's complaints in his ears, "..., why do you still use such a primitive way of entry and exit!"

After complaining, Leonard still remembered that Sha Duo wanted him to arrange it, so he smoothed his chest and said: "Okay Sha Duo, come with me!"

Leonard took Shado to one side of the hall. Here was the elevator. The assessment three days ago was conducted in this hall. Shado did not have the opportunity to take the elevator.

"Tower spirit, command: public level."

As soon as Leonard finished speaking, the elevator started to move. Xia Duo stamped his feet curiously because he didn't feel any overweight. The elevator here seemed more humane than the elevator on Earth.

Of course, it may also be that different principles give people different feelings.

A few seconds later, the elevator stopped at the public floor. After stepping out of the elevator, Leonard walked straight to his destination without stopping.

Xia Duo quickly followed. This floor felt to him like a hotel on Earth, a circular corridor with doors on both sides and house numbers on the doors. Xia Duo can speak the common language of Nese, but he can only recognize symbols and numbers in words.

Because Xiao Neil, who taught him Common Language, was also illiterate.
