Infrastructure starts from the game

Although it was always suspected that it was Cecilia himself, Angel didn't care about the great magician Cecilia.

It's not so much that I don't care, it's better to say that I "can't" care.

In the wizarding world, "similar existence" is a very dangerous thing.

Among the black magic recorded by the Magic Association at present, there are more than three figures of black magic that can use "similar faces", "similar voices" and "similar behaviors" to win the other party's love, status, lifespan, and even fate. .

And that's not the prerogative of the dark arts.

For example, the sage's specialty is to throw the sword used by the previous generation of heroes in any corner, and then "prophecy" tells everyone that "the one who gets that sword is the reincarnation of the previous generation of heroes, and he will save the world". It doesn't matter whether the one who gets the sword is "the reincarnation of the brave" at all. What's important is that when that person acts like a brave man and is praised more and more by others as a brave man, his soul will naturally become the majority. The human "speaking spirit" is distorted into "the reincarnation of the previous generation's brave man", and he is forced to accept the fate of saving the world.

Angel naturally didn't want to be such an unlucky ghost.

While the legendary "Grand Magician Cecilia" sounds like a serious person, who knows?

——Besides, judging from the fact that the other party built magic gears as his "doll pool", it seems that this great magician is not as serious as the rumors say.

Like this kind of situation where there are "similarity", "clone" and "doll", it is the safest choice for the king not to see the king. Anyway, the opponent's "body" cannot get out of the tower, as long as you don't get close to the opponent, nothing will happen. ……perhaps.

"That is to say, are you afraid of meow at all?"

Mithril complained.

After complaining, it felt that something was wrong, so it couldn't help but glanced at its master: "Are you afraid too?"

"I'm still a human being, so of course I'm afraid." Angel did not deny it, "And knowing that there is a gap in strength, but still taking risks to find out the so-called 'truth', that's not bravery, it's 'death' !"

And it's not something you have to know.

Angor's "self" is very clear. He has a "career" and an "ideal" that he wants to accomplish. Compared with that, the relationship with the so-called "great magician" is not very important.

At least not so important as to risk your life.

But this world is entering the magic-free universe, and it is possible to fly to the blue star, which is different.

Angel said sternly: "How can this matter be related to the future of this world? When you don't care about such trivial matters, the sooner you find out the truth, the better."

Saying so, he stepped out of the shadows.

Cecilia's mage tower appeared in front of Angel.

This tower stands like the arrow of an arrow at the easternmost end of Cecilia City, facing the direction of the abyss.

After a long period of time, it is no longer the tallest mage tower, nor is it the mage tower with the strongest defense cover, but it is the spiritual pillar of the city and even the entire east.

No matter how many times the demons invade, as long as this tower does not collapse, then the people of the East will not give up hope.

Therefore, this place is also the most heavily guarded place in the entire eastern border. The people of the eastern border have built an outpost nearby, and there are guardian mages patrolling nearby all year round. Even the emperors and dukes of the eastern border cannot easily approach here.

It's just that no one expected that a gap was torn open in the shadow of the tower against the city wall, and a certain black robe could approach here at will as if entering his own home.

"...Is this your 'dare not to care'?" Mithril lost the strength to complain for a moment.

"This is just in case!"

Angel said righteously, if something really happens, I must be "prepared"!

What preparations?

Ready to escape?Or is it a preparation to murder the great wizard Cecilia?

Mithril felt that he was really naive, and should guess Angel's behavior with the greatest malice!

"The great magician has sealed himself for nearly ten thousand years, right? No one can enter this tower, and he has never come out again. There are even rumors that he is too powerful to continue to exist in this world. , "Mithril asked nervously, "What are you going to do?"

"I'm here to ask for advice, of course it's enough to knock on the door properly!"

Angor said so.

He actually came out of the shadows and walked directly towards the front.

"Hey!" Mithril called.

Regarding Angor's swaggering behavior, a team of guardian mages immediately looked over, but when their eyes really fell on Angor, they turned away as if they didn't see anything.

Angel was in front of everyone, walking to the tower gate like the most normal guest.

The main entrance of the most famous and powerful Mage Tower in this plane is very simple. It is not only an ordinary wooden door, but also covered with vines, densely climbing the entire wall, and one of them has a white vine. Hangs down like a rope, like the pull cord of an old doorbell.

In fact, this vine is what the doorbell does.

It is a magical plant with lily-of-the-valley flowers. As long as you pull the vine at one end, all the flowers in the tower will ring. It was used by some down-and-out wild mages as doorbells in ancient times.

Of course, the use of such a doorbell by the great magician Cecilia is simply "simple".

And this is also the last resort for the world to communicate with the legendary great magician.

Although there is no response to ringing the doorbell at ordinary times, when the doorbell is ringing when the demons invade, different defensive measures will be lowered according to the emergency situation.

The most famous example is the most ferocious demon invasion in the second era. I don’t know what went wrong. The demons climbed up from the abyss and flooded the entire city of Cecilia. It hit the Cagoffin Plain in the Academy City.

Fortunately, the prince who was patrolling in the Eastern Territory discovered something was wrong early on. He notified the Duke of the Eastern Territory to transfer the city residents first, and led the army to fight to the end. He retreated to the tower of Cecilia's Mage Tower before he rang the doorbell. , Immediately, tens of thousands of thunderbolts fell from the sky like rain, smashing the demons in the entire city to ashes, and the prince survived. He returned to the capital after the war and became the famous ZTE in the second era. Lord.

Hundreds of stories like this about Cecilia Tower could be told.

But stories are just stories.

What people really know is that after the "Great Disappearance Incident", the mages at that time rang Cecilia's doorbell in desperation, hoping to be guided by the other party. any movement.

Mithril is not optimistic about Angor's behavior.

"Do you think the great magician will pay attention to you?"

"It's a good thing if he ignores me, it means I don't matter to him," Angel calmly pulled the vine, "but if he ignores me—"

"Squeak—"

Almost at the moment when Angel touched the vine, the door of the mage tower that was said to have not been opened for tens of thousands of years opened.

The inside of the dark door stared at Angel like eyes.

Angel laughed dryly twice:

"If he's so impatient, I'm in big trouble."

But until now, there was no reason to back down. Even though it felt strange that the door opened at this time, Angel still walked into the tower with Mithril in his arms.

"Excuse me!" he said to Tari.

The sound echoed in the empty tower.

Yes, empty.

Where Angel could see, there was no furniture or other things, just empty.

Angel had already rang the doorbell. He didn't mean to hide anything, and directly cast a light spell to illuminate the entire hall.

In this way, I can see more clearly. There is really nothing here except thick dust. What it looked like from the beginning is what it looks like now.

Just at the steps of this empty hall, there was a person standing there.

A man very similar to Angel.

He has the same black hair as Angor, the same facial features, and almost the same height, but his appearance looks older. He is a middle-aged man in his 30s and almost 40 years old. His hair is neatly combed. What he was wearing was not a black robe, but a light brown robe—this meant that he was a natural elemental mage, and the non-pure color robe meant that his elemental magic was not specialized in a certain direction, and he knew some elemental magic. It belongs to the kind of mage that can be seen everywhere - the whole person looks more gentle and polite than Angel.

This man seemed to have tried his best to appear in front of Angel in the least scary way.

When he was sure that Angel saw him, he put his right hand on his chest and smiled:

"...You are finally back, Master."

But this elder is scary enough for Angel.

Ordinary people are not used to appearing in front of themselves like this when they agree with their appearance.

Angel frowned and said, "Master? I don't remember that I have a servant like you...and I'm just an intermediate mage, not the great mage Cecilia."

This is a very important thing and must be emphasized again.

The "middle-aged Angel" seemed to have expected Angel to say this, and he smiled deeper.

"Yes, you are Master Angor, and the great magician Cecilia is me."

"You are the great magician Cecilia?" Angel was taken aback.

"That's right, open your defenses, protect the land, and get everyone's praise and belief instead of you, and thus gain the meaning and soul of existence. I am the great magician Cecilia, and this is the identity you gave me." That's what the self-proclaimed 'Great Magician Cecilia' said.

"I bestow?"

The other party didn't mean to explain in person: "I know you have a lot of questions to ask, but I have arranged the things you need according to your instructions and put them upstairs. You can go and see by yourself."

Angel glanced upstairs: "Can't you tell me the story?"

Any normal mage would not run around in other owner's mage towers without authorization, who knows what they will encounter.

"I really want to report to you in person, but my body is almost overwhelmed."

That "Cecilia" said, and tried to walk a few steps towards Angel.

But with every step he took, his face and body grew older.

Seeing such a horrifying scene, Mithril's fur all exploded.

"Meow!"

It arched its back and gave a warning call to the weird "big magician".

Even so, "Great Magician Cecilia" ignored it, and he still insisted on walking in front of Angel - at that moment, "Cecilia" had completely turned into a gray-haired grandfather.

"My Creator, I have been waiting here for 1 years, and I just want to see you one last time,"

"I want to see what kind of person you are who created me, used me to do such great deeds, but left those praises and glory without hesitation."

"I hope I haven't ruined your image."

He looked at Angel with complicated eyes, and stretched out his hand tremblingly: "My mission has been completed..."

When he said the last sentence, his flesh and body finally couldn't bear the long-term existence and turned into fly ash. Only his head rolled off his neck and rolled to Angel's feet, as if Kiss Angor's shoes.

Angel watched this scene expressionlessly, until the other party disappeared, and then picked up the head that had completely turned into a skeleton.

"Don't get close to that thing!" Mithril was still in a state of fried hair, he warned, "This may be a trap."

"No, he really seems to be my puppet." Angel said.

He picked up the skull, wiped off the dust, and showed Mithril a familiar signature.

"It has my signature on it, and it also has my magical reaction."

"Yes, this is my magic power."

"And this tower is also..."

"I feel a magical connection."

Angel muttered, raised his head, and a huge golden magic circle appeared from under his feet.

On the other side, in the Tower of No Owner.

A group of old mages are still stranded in the Tower of No Owner.

They stay at two-thirds of the height of the tower: this is the traditional position of control of the tower by high-ranking mages.

After all, not every era will have people like Angel solve all the problems, but if the apprentices are allowed to "grow freely" in the Tower of No Owner, they don't know what will happen, so the high-level mages of the Balance School will obligate Nature comes from the Tower of No Owner to provide teaching, solve puzzles and maintain order.

However, even for high-level mages, it is quite good to solve two-thirds of the questions, and at this height, it is enough to manage the situation of all the personnel in the tower, so they will stay here.

——The space above cannot be compressed, and it would take them several years to go up, which is really unnecessary.

So the old mages sat on the tower at the top of the Tower of No Owner, drank the herbal tea brought by Avery, and waited leisurely for Angel to finish his work and come down from above.

Up to now, these old mages have mistakenly thought that Angor came back to take over the Tower of No Owner.

So an old mage took a sip of tea and asked boredly, "Do you think Angel can really become the owner of the Tower of No Owner?"

"Is there no one else who can be the master of this tower besides him?" Oville said, "Even now, Angel is the real master of the Tower of No Master, right?"

At the beginning, the mage shook his head and said, "That's different! Although his progress is more complete than others, it's not like no one has done it in history. The point is whether the core of this tower will really recognize him. "

"Speaking of which, does this tower recognize anyone else?" asked another mage.

"There is no recorded history, otherwise how can it be called 'The Tower of No Owner'."

"Yes, although there are more than 30 people...is it more than 30? After solving all the problems of this tower, they are eligible to enter the 'Hall of Truth'. Unfortunately, none of them passed the test of the Tower of No Owner and became recognized. Master's."

"Not only that, but they all died tragically during the test." An old mage sighed.

"Terrible death?!" Oville slapped the table in surprise and stood up, "Why didn't you guys talk about this earlier?!"

The red dragon also looked nervously at the top of the tower: "Then my baby Angel—"

"He knows." The old mage cast a glance at the perverted couple, "Actually, he himself investigated this matter."

"Hey?"

"Back when he solved the mystery of the Tower of No Owner, we hoped that he would go one step further and challenge to become the master of this tower—after all, he is only a middle-level man, there is no precedent, even if we want to include him in our Mage Tower The management committee also needs to change its name, right? If he is the owner of a Xingyao Tower, it will be different-but Angel gave us a paper the other day, which lists the problem solvers of the past generations in detail The way of death, and evidence."

"...As expected of Angel." Oville said.

"In short, seeing that kind of paper, we can't force him to do something that must die again." The old mage sighed.

"That's true!" Another old mage fell into a state of reminiscence, "I didn't know Angel at that time, and I laughed at his life when I saw his paper. Now that I think about it, that guy is not All the problem solvers who cared about the Masterless Tower are dead, but they simply don't want to join our Mage Tower Management Committee?"

"..."

There was an awkward silence in the space.

It took a long time for Oville to complain in a low voice: "If you realize this, don't say it!"

"Why can't you say it! That guy Angel is a bastard, isn't he?" Another old mage slapped the table angrily, "I only know how to enjoy rights, but I don't want to take responsibility! If he was more serious at the beginning, he can't do it now. They are all the actual leaders of our mage tower! How can they be reduced to the point where they have to go home and inherit the workshop!"

"Actually, even if he doesn't join the management committee, he almost becomes Oville's successor, but doesn't he want it?"

"Yes, he just wants to experiment with the Guardian Mage!"

"Does that guy have the right to complain that we don't grant him funding? It's just a middle-level mage! If he manages things honestly, what kind of funding will not be given to him—"

"But, having said that, it's a good thing he didn't become chairman of our committee!"

"Can you imagine what that guy would do if he became the leader of all the mages in our Kinkou faction?"

"..."

There was another awkward silence.

Not everyone wants to face this topic very much.

After another long time, someone laughed and said, "It suddenly occurred to me that at the very beginning, we suspected that Cecilia was 'that' Cecilia!"

"Yes, there is such a thing," the other mages echoed, "After all, Angel was too young when he solved the problem of the mage tower, and the magic gear he was born in has that kind of relationship with the great mage Cecilia. , really thought he was Cecilia's clone or something."

"Yeah, so at that time I tried my best to get him into the management committee!"

"It's ridiculous to think about it now! If Cecilia who saved the world was Angel, the world would be over!"

"Hahaha, indeed!"

The mages laughed.

The heavy air just now finally changed, and there was a happy atmosphere everywhere.

It was at this time that a beep sounded from the leading old mage.

The old mage touched his body, took out a crystal ball, and put it on the table.

Suddenly, the panicked face of a young mage appeared in the crystal.

He even forgot the honorific title and shouted: "Big, something is wrong, Sai, Cecilia has recognized the Lord!"

"Cecilia?" The old mage was stunned.

In the past, when mages mentioned Cecilia, they generally thought of this city, and then they thought of the great magician. However, after several years of Angor's torment, they only thought of Cecilia and Angor.

So even though the other party was unclear, the old mage still grasped the subject: "Angel has recognized the master... No, it should be the mage tower who recognized Angel as the master?"

Anyway, he couldn't imagine what Angel would look like when he recognized his master.

The young mage over there nodded frantically: "That's right! Angel became the master of that tower."

"He did it?!"

"Are you sure he became the owner of a Xingyao Tower?" the old mages immediately asked.

The young mage was obviously in a state of confusion after the huge shock, he nodded indiscriminately and said: "That's right, Xingyao Tower."

A mage looked around strangely: "It's strange, why is there no movement in this tower?"

Generally, the higher the level of the mage tower, the more exaggerated the scene of recognizing the master.

It's not that mages like ostentation, but that the stronger the mage tower is, the more magic power is poured into it, so the magic power will be inherited when it is passed on, which will inevitably cause a considerable degree of shock.

Of course, there are exceptions.

A mage said: "Maybe the Tower of No Owner is like this?"

"That's true."

After being surprised, the old mage finally remembered to reprimand his subordinates: "The Tower of No Owner has not had a master for so many years. Isn't it a good thing to finally recognize the master? What are you talking about?"

"No, the Tower of No Owner?" The young mage found himself chatting with the old mage, "No, I mean the Cecilia mage's tower."

"what?"

"I mean, the Cecilia mage tower has recognized the master." The young mage repeated it in a straight voice.

"Mage Tower Cecilia?" The old mage froze in place.

His brain couldn't process the news for a moment:

Isn't the owner of Cecilia's Mage Tower the great magician Cecilia?Why did he recognize Angel as his master?Although Angor is indeed a Cecilia... um huh huh?

And Avery and the red dragon pushed open the nearest window without any discussion, and the red dragon jumped out of the window immediately, with huge dragon wings spread out behind it, returning from the human form to the dragon form, Ovi Li jumped onto it immediately, and besides that, several mages who reacted quickly also flew onto the dragon's back following Oville.

The red dragon didn't bother to care about the actions of these mages. He flapped his wings and flew in the direction of Cecilia's mage tower.

In fact, you don't have to get close to see it.

A huge and straight golden light beam is covering the oldest mage tower. It reaches down to the abyss and reaches up to the sky. Like the pillars of heaven and earth, it stands on the easternmost side of the city.
