When Brian firmly and cautiously stepped into this mysterious space hidden in the gap between time and space, a dazzling magic ball floated in front of him like a star. It released a pale but extremely deep violet light, and the brilliance was like a handle. The invisible key quietly reveals the secret veil of this grand space.
This violet beam of light is like a decrypted light sword, penetrating the darkness and instantly illuminating the tall and wide vaulted ceiling carved with ancient runes and a spiral staircase without guardrails but as solid as rock. .
Around the spiral staircase that seemed to lead to the unknown world, violet light poured out like moonlight, illuminating every corner one by one.
A majestic and solemn ring-shaped living room emerged from the darkness. A row of lanterns waiting to be lit and containing traces of time hung on the stone walls. They were silent in the dimness, adding to the space. A bit of silence and mysterious charm.
The carpet is thick and soft, like a layer of fine and dense velvet covering the smooth and smooth cold hard stone floor underneath. It seems that you can feel the echo of history with every step you take.
On the left side of the entrance, on a raised platform carefully carved from hard stone, stands a huge stone seat that looks like a throne. It has complex textures and is majestic and solemn. It seems that there have been countless great figures here. They left behind their wisdom and strength.
In the core of the entire tower, just a stone's throw away from the spiral staircase that spirals upward, the small ball that is constantly emitting violet light is quietly suspended and slowly rotating, like a The taciturn but extremely loyal guide is patiently waiting for your arrival in silence, ready to lead you to explore this world full of miracles and secrets.
At this critical moment, a magical light flashed across, and a young drow with a thin body and a terrifying face suddenly appeared in front of Brian's eyes. His face was left with extensive, intimidating acid burn marks.
“You are that Mr. Bryan, right?” The young drow mage said in a low and slightly hoarse voice, with a special charm in his words, “I once heard I have told you about your deeds. In the ancient city of Orens, you are the only one who can break away from the trap of fate woven by the God Queen and become a free slave. It seems that you are indeed extraordinary, otherwise you would not be able to reach this point."< br>
"Now I will introduce you to my mentor," the drow mage's face looked distorted due to burns, making it even more sinister. "This tower is full of magic traps, and ordinary people cannot easily step into it." His crimson eyes stared closely at Brian, issuing a mocking invitation, "If you have the guts, follow me."
It turned out to be him!
Faced with the other party's contemptuous words, Brian not only did not get angry, but secretly exclaimed in his heart: "It turns out to be a disciple of Archmage Wizlan! No wonder the strange thing happened just now. It turns out that he is a disciple of Master Wizlan! There is such a connection between the two of them, and the matter becomes even more intriguing. "
This young drow mage is called Green Oster.
In the deep and mysterious underground city of Arakita, he is Wizzlan's apprentice and the only one who is with his master.
He comes from a family that was once glorious but now in decline. With his witty and cunning character and his innate keen sense of magic, he continues to struggle to survive in difficulties.
With an almost stubborn determination, Green broke into the illegal alliance of drow mages known as the Spider Council. This alliance weaved a web of intrigue and dark magic in the secret corners of ancient Orens City.
However, Green's ambition was like a double-edged sword. His carelessness and overconfidence caused him to almost pay the price of his life in a key mission.
He was almost mercilessly executed by the Parliament, but fortunately, he was rescued by Witzlan at the critical moment of life and death.
Witzlan is also the sponsor who controls the Spider Council, and he is also one of the most powerful drow archmages in the ancient city of Orens. He saw the potential in Green, so he decided to bring Green back from the brink of death and accept him as his apprentice.
In this silent and lonely Arakita, Green began a more rigorous and advanced path of magic study under the careful guidance of Wizlan.
He is deeply loyal to Wizzlan, but deep down he cannot fully adapt to this isolated life.
Whenever night falls and the moonlight shines on his pale face through the cave, his heart fills with endless longing and longing for his hometown of ancient Orens.
He cherishes a secret wish, that is, one day he can return to that familiar yet unfamiliar land and use the magical power he possesses to support the rebels who intend to overthrow the mistress and her cruel rule.
He knew that only in this way could he truly wash away the shame of his family, restore the family's past glory, and at the same time leave his own legacy as Green Oster in the history of dark elf society. A strong stroke of ink and color.
Brian thought for a moment and then followed Green's footsteps without hesitation.
While walking, he discovered that there was a permanent invisible servant on each floor of the tower. Twenty-four decorated
sets of armor were placed in the tower from bottom to top. Inside, they are all activated armor, seemingly able to move and fight according to Wizzlan's orders.
Brian also noticed through his keen telepathy that there were traces of other humanoid creatures appearing in Alakita. These marks included broken clothing, moldy food, and certain rooms. The chains inside and the shackles embedded in the wall.
“Don’t be confused about this,” Green would confide to Brian, seemingly aware of Brian’s gaze, “My mentor once summoned many secondary demons through contracts in the tower, and Slave some humanoid creatures to serve you.”
Brian shrugged slightly and didn't ask too much, but he couldn't help but think about how to make the master and disciple turn against each other.
After all, the two people seem to have different ideas. One is obsessed with destroying the entire city of Ancient Orens, while the other just wants to restore the glory of the family.
Under the guidance of the violet ball of light and Master Green, Brian successfully reached the core area hidden deep in the tower.
There is no doubt that the Drow Archmage Wizlan and the Slaad Death Toad have already been waiting for this moment in the secret chamber.
At the same time, Brian's eyes were attracted by an unexpected detail. He noticed that Master Wizlan was wearing a smoked crystal pendant strung up by an adamantine rune magic chain around his neck. .
With his keen intuition about the magical world, Brian knew at a glance that this crystal filled with strong negative energy fluctuations was undoubtedly the control gem belonging to the Slaad Death Toad, and its existence demonstrated a mysterious and powerful power. (End of this chapter)
