Chapter 127 126. Sudden Change
"The Banquet of the Upper Class Nobles" and "The Banquet of the Lower Class Poor" roughly require two to three hundred extras.
There will be chaos when there are too many people, and mages always have their own unique ideas. You never know when a maverick mage will appear. When Annan was editing the film, he discovered several people who secretly used charm or light spells to make themselves visible in the crowd.
So Annan commissioned the actors hired from the theater to train the extras, and then went out of the city with Michael to meet the illusionist he hired.
Tina Wright. She used to be named Barna Sweeney, Lynne Owen, McFan Parkhurst, etc... You can tell how troublesome she is from the frequent changes in her name
Michael said that when he was still an apprentice at the Mage Shop in Plenty City, he spent some time with Tina Wright, who was also an apprentice. Then the two people's lives took completely opposite paths - Michael because of his tenacity and talent. He was taken to Breeze City by his teacher and joined the Mage Tower. But Tina Wright, who was more talented, was kicked out because of deception.
Then this disgusting guy wandered in Pulang'enci County for more than ten years. It is said that he became a mage and left a lot of bad reputation. But Tina Wright didn't deceive Michael very much, so they got along quite happily.
This kind of person is obviously not worthy of trust, but Michael said that manipulating illusions is her specialty - this is what Annan saw after meeting her.
When this pale cheek was tattooed with patterns, his lips were painted with purple quartz powder, and his body was covered with noisy ornaments and feathers, he looked more like a wizard than a warlock. After seeing Annan, he used illusions to imitate it. A black dragon.
This six to seven meter long black dragon standing majestically behind Tina Wright was so lifelike that even Michael almost cast a defensive spell - but Annan, who had been in contact with real dragons many times, calmly commented: It was too thick, mighty and strong, unlike the blue dragon's beautiful streamlined body.
However, black dragons are known for their strength and power.
Michael and Tina Wright waved their hands: "This is the customer I introduced to you, so you should have guessed something from this mage robe and black hair."
< br>"Dear King of the North, it's an honor to serve you." Tina Wright bowed with a clattering decoration. "I, Jupa Simon, will swear to the gods to keep your secrets according to the direction of your sword."
"Tina, your name is Jupa Simon again now?"< br>
Tina Wright immediately tore up the politeness she maintained and cursed like a mad woman: "Damn Michael, the hopeless pig, did you tell him my name?!"
"Annan is my friend, you can trust him."
"The King of the North will be friends with us commoners? Oh, you are no longer a commoner." Tina Wright sarcastically said, "I don't care Are you mistresses or lovers? I have no interest in getting involved in the affairs between nobles."
"I'm not lying to you, this is a big deal. We need you to build some illusions."
"Hope. That's it."
"Old rule, get the money after it's done."
"No problem."
Tina Wright's eyes with black circles fell on Annan, and she didn't even want to maintain false respect: "Boy, what do you want?"
< br>"I need you to build a complete mage tower in Breeze City. The people in the mage tower should be real enough, and then the rat tide will wash away the mage tower like a wave, and finally break the mage tower in the middle."
Every time Annan said something, Tina Wright's face became more ugly, and finally she said to Michael with a stinking face:
"If you want to join forces with outsiders to arrest me, you don't have to go to so much trouble."
"Can't do it?"
Tina Wright pointed to the mage tower in the city: "That broken tower is 300 feet high? If I could build such a thing, would it look like this? "
"This black dragon is my limit. I have been carving it for several years."
The black dragon behind Tina Wright is about ten meters long from beginning to end, and the mage tower is also there. It's not that complicated. Ten days should be enough.
"Then build a 30-foot-tall mage tower in one week."
"No, but if you..." "You also need to pay more for our relationship?" Michael interrupted her.
“Damn it! You stupid pig!”
Tina Wright finally followed them back to the city, cursing.
In the Circular Square, Tina Wright looked up at the Mage Tower with pale cheeks and full of disdain: "Is it enough to show off your power? Find me a place to live."
"Wait a moment."
Annan got off the carriage and walked into the Mage Tower, and came back soon with a visitor badge. "You can visit the Mage Tower with the badge, but visitors can only go to the first three floors. "
Tina Wright looked at the badge in silence, not knowing what she was thinking. Michael, who endured her scolding all the way, gloated:
“Are you so moved that you’re going to cry?”
“I’m so touched... vomit——”
Tina Wright spat out a puddle of disgusting vomit at Michael, "Sorry, I've been in the car for too long, and I was disgusted by your words again."
Annan looked at the puddle of vomit with pity. Michael.
The Cleansing Technique can clean the mage's robe, but it cannot clean the psychological trauma.
The Mage Tower has a guest dormitory, which saves Annan the trouble of finding a place for Tina Wright. After talking to her about building the mage tower, Annan went to visit Evelin again and discussed tomorrow's scene with her.
“Your mood at this time should be rebellious and determined, not shy.”
"I can't do it...I'm not that strong."
"Ruth is not that strong either. She is like a puppet manipulated by her mother. She sacrifices herself for the family, but after meeting Jack, she Understand what freedom is. Think of yourself as Ruth..."
As night fell, Annan and Red Ghost came to the control floor to prepare for the "Lights Out of the Mage Tower" session that had been completed a few days in advance.
The core of the mage tower is clearly presented in front of Annan: huge colored diamonds floating on the arranged red copper base
"The blue spar controls the defense of the mage tower, and the green spar controls the mage tower. Attack, the red crystal controls the light source of the mage tower. "The tower spirit floating beside introduced.
"Be careful not to touch them..."
Annan reminded the red ghost who was a little close to the red crystal.
"It can be touched." The ethereal voice said, "Nobles often visit the operation floor. The crystal can resist direct attacks below the eighth-level spell."
Annan felt a little relieved and looked at He stretched out his hand towards the diamond-shaped crystal in front of him.
“The outside world cannot do anything to the crystal——”
The halo of the tower spirit flickered and dissipated.
The floating diamond-shaped crystal faded its color and rolled down from the base. The power driving the operation of the Mage Tower was annihilated, and the entire Mage Tower was suddenly shrouded in deep darkness.
In the darkness, Annan continued to stretch out his hand, unable to understand what was happening in front of him.
The red ghost gently pulled Annan, as if asking him to run for his life.
