Mage? Spell Engineer!

Rorschach and Kano walked out of the Starlight Torch Tower, and Master Kano had to go back to the magic guild. There was Kano's carriage right outside the door. There were no family emblems, only the emblem of the White Tower under the stars.

"As the vehicle for the Tower of Stars, I am your mentor. Well, I should be the one leading you here, so I still have some status."

The whole journey was much faster with a carriage, and Rorschach felt that compared to caravan carriages and public carriages, this carriage was so smooth that no vibration could be felt. This is more powerful than previous modern shock absorbers, and it is definitely not a mechanical structure.

"Actually, we don't need a driver or a horse. This car can also travel. We have two mages, so it doesn't take much effort." Kano leaned comfortably on the soft cushion:

"But this city, no, the entire kingdom is very boring, and the church does a good job of 'protecting' the people."

Rorschach thought of his experience at the vegetable market and the stagnant atmosphere after he cast the spell.

"Sir, the guild has arrived." The coachman knocked on the partition and said.

"Okay, let's go down."

"Thank you."

Although it is such an important place as the capital of the kingdom, the magic guild is still deserted, and there is no one in the golden hall.

Kano and Rorschach heard steady snoring when they came in.

"Hoho. Hoo. Hoo."

Kano walked to the front desk with a dark face, took out an ear, and revealed a sleeping face scattered with freckles and woken up from pain.

"It hurts, let go! Damn it, Mr. Kano?"

"Pascal! I gave you a chance to make up for your credits and asked you to come here on duty. Did you come here to catch up on your sleep for me?"

Rorschach felt that it was necessary to give the master and apprentice space to communicate, so he returned to the carriage first.

With three people crammed into it, the comfortable carriage became a little crowded.

Pascal yawned: "Junior brother Rorschach, can you guess where to enter the Tower of Stars?"

Outside the window are squarely trimmed shrubs, as if you have entered a carefully maintained forest garden. The carriage made countless turns in the bushes and finally stopped in the center of the garden.

"A small maze, coupled with real-time changes, can help us reject uninvited guests without guidance."

There is only one lone door in the center of the maze.

"Go in." Pascal opened the door, and the doorframe framed a field of light. Kano stepped in first, followed by Rorschach. Rorschach stepped across the threshold, only to land on the lawn opposite the door.

"What's going on?" Pascal still opened the door for Rorschach: "The teleportation magic of the Star Gate has failed?"

It seemed as if an invisible hand stretched out from the flow of color, grabbed Luo Xia and pulled her in.

"Follow me." It was Kano's voice. After Rorschach was fully inside, Pascal came in scratching his head and closed the door.

"I don't know what happened. It seems that the magic attached to the door didn't work on me when I passed by myself."

"This door is a bit old, so it's normal to have some problems."

There is a huge transparent dome on the hall when you come in. The starry sky is shining with fine spots of light, wrapping the planets and star spots in the distance, drifting slowly, flashing with ever-changing rainbow light.

"Transmutation dust, according to records, they wrap around the stars. They are the remnants left behind when the gods and kingdoms meet our world."

The Tower of Stars has a vast starry sky, but no tower. The rotunda the size of a football field is surrounded by three levels of enclosures, each of which rotates slowly and staggeredly. In the center of the hall is a three-sided black stone pillar engraved with runes.

Pascal introduced that this is the core of the "tower" spirit: "Master Rorschach, if you activate your mage badge and stick it on the core, he will remember you, and the Tower of Stars will be officially opened to you. You are the researcher's Join the Kano Mentor Group as a member, and the permissions are faculty and staff.”

Rorschach did as he was told, injecting magic power to activate the badge, and the runes attached to the pillar immediately began to flow. After a while, an inhuman, stiff voice sounded: "Welcome to the Tower of Stars, Master Rorschach."

Why broadcast? After the tower spirit reported that there was no tower, everyone in the hall looked at Rorschach, full of curiosity and scrutiny.

In addition to the lobby, there are many public areas on the first floor:

"This is a restaurant. The chefs from the eight best restaurants in Valuauna take turns cooking. The juniors are considered teachers and can eat for free."

"Senior brother, how many apprentices like you need?"

Pascal said with heartache: "We pay the fee according to the academic year, a total of forty gold!"

Rorschach nodded. Is this price expensive? In fact, he looked at the sky restaurant in the Starry Sky Torch Tower, and the main course can be purchased for three to five gold coins. The annual fee of forty gold is definitely far lower than the normal price of eight restaurants. But forty gold is by no means cheap. Just for food expenses, a worker or a peasant family would have to pay all at once.

Fortunately, I ate for free

"This is the library on the first floor. It is open to everyone. The library on the second floor and above requires the teacher's approval slip. Oh damn, I forgot again. Junior brother, you don't need it."

Rorschach heard the envy from Brother Pascal. He smiled and said to Pascal: "Brother, I will approve the note for any book you want."

Pascal gritted his teeth: "Thank you so much, good junior brother!"

There is some space on the first floor that seems to be a store, with a cabinet full of purple potions on the shelves.

Pascal saw what Rorschach saw and introduced: "This is our Alchemy Department's own product. How else could it fit in such a whole cabinet? But take my advice, if you don't want to damage your own clever mind, stay away from them."

Just as Rorschach was about to ask what the purple potion was, the radio rang again, this time with a real voice, distorted but somewhat familiar: "Hello? Hello? Mr. Rorschach, Mr. Rorschach, please come to the chief professor's office on the third floor. Don't come here, that Pascal apprentice. Do what you have to do.

Oh, by the way, be careful with the stairs, you can go up or down after it stops. How to use this? I've wanted to try it for a long time, wait a minute."

"Master Kano?" Rorschach was a little unsure. Pascal looked to see that Kano was indeed gone, and nodded with a twitching expression.

Rorschach headed for the stairs, and even though the three floors were spinning, he noticed that others ascending the stairs took the escalator.

The escalator is first stationary relative to the ground in the hall. After someone stands on it, it starts to catch up with the rotating second or third floor until the escalator, people and floors are relatively stationary again.

A door on the third floor suddenly emitted light. It was originally a dark wooden door, so it stood out among them.

“It’s weird, but it’s very thoughtful.”

As soon as Rorschach finished speaking, the light door began to flicker and go out, changing colors every time it flashed, red, orange, yellow, green, blue, indigo and purple. The young man thought of the discotheque in his previous life. Of course, like most engineering dogs, he had only seen it in videos.

However, now, facing the "disco" with the sign "Office·Chief Professor", he had to walk in with everyone watching.

The apprentices and mages in the hall simply stopped leaving and looked at the gleaming door and Rorschach. Pascal had long disappeared. The noisy environment just now fell into a more terrifying silence than that of a large vegetable market.

"Yeah! You can still play like this. Damn it, the radio is not turned off."

Thank you to the "Confused Feather" book friend for your monthly ticket. This is the first time I have received it. Thank you for the encouragement.
