Spellcasting Heavens
Chapter 207 Towering Tower (Part 2)
Unlike the dark and humid environment of most castles in Westeros, the towering tower seems to have adopted a very special design that allows light to be refracted along the passage, so there is no need to light torches and oil lamps during the day, and Under the faint light, the originally black walls occasionally flashed vague mysterious symbols.
Perhaps in the eyes of a layman, these symbols may just be an indecipherable ancient script, but in Zhang Cheng's eyes, they are similar to the runes carved on the Dragon Binder horn.
Although there is a huge difference in the way they are used, the essence is to use energy to complete the constancy of a certain spell, especially the closer to the top of the tower, the more runes and the more powerful the energy induction.
As for what the spell is, Zhang Cheng is not sure yet, but one thing is, the magic technology mastered by the tower builders is definitely not inferior to the once brilliant Valyrian civilization.
Interestingly, the magic here is more towards the water element than the magic of blood and fire in Valyria, and coupled with the proximity to the sea, it is no wonder that there are rumors that it was built by a mixture of human and deep-sea races.
Just as he was carefully observing the tower, which was incompatible with the style of the old town, Leighton Hightower, who was walking in front, suddenly stopped, turned around and asked with a serious face: Earl Mason, I heard that you are a A powerful magic user who summoned hailstones in the Battle of the Blackwater, completely destroying Stannis' cavalry charge, right?
Hahahaha! Overwhelming? Do you think it's possible? Zhang Cheng asked back with a big laugh.
Okay, I admit that the rumors may be exaggerated, but you always have to admit that you have cast a large-scale offensive spell that is enough to change the direction of the war? Layton continued to test without discouragement.
After a short mental adjustment, he quickly calmed down his anger and began to try to figure out the details of this mysterious young man in front of him.
You must know that the Hightower family is not as keen on seizing power and territory as other nobles. Except for the tragic Dance of Blood Dragons in the middle of the Targaryen Dynasty, they seldom really participated in the civil war. He prefers to rely on the two major forces of the academy and the church, slowly infiltrating the seven kingdoms, and quietly expanding his influence.
After all, the church represents faith and controls the spiritual world of tens of thousands of nobles and commoners, while the academy represents the inheritance of knowledge, culture, and values. Almost all castles will be stationed with a bachelor who came out of the academy, in order to own the castle. The family provides a variety of services and is responsible for educating their descendants.
To a certain extent, the background of the Hightower family far exceeds the so-called famous families of Lannister, Tyrell, Stark, and Tully, so even if they lose control of the old town, Layton still does not show it. A little panic,
Because he didn't think anyone would dare to take a huge political risk to attack himself and his family.
Feeling the arrogance vaguely revealed in the old man's words, Zhang Cheng's eyes flashed a hint of mockery that was not easy to detect, followed by a half-smiling reply: Ah, yes, I did cast an interesting spell. Why, do you want to discuss the mysteries of magic with me?
Layton hurriedly shook his head: No, no, no, please don't misunderstand, I didn't mean to spy on it, I just wanted to confirm. To tell you the truth, and I don't know why, the Hightower family recently For a hundred years or so, the ability to learn and study magic has been completely lost, and only recently have we discovered that that mysterious power has returned.
So? Zhang Cheng deliberately pretended not to care.
So I hope to get an explanation from you to explain why the magic suddenly disappeared and then suddenly came back. I believe that you who have such powerful spells must not be the power you suddenly acquired, right? After that, Old Layton said He crossed his hands on his chest, his face full of excitement and anticipation.
As the number one otaku in Westeros, he has spent almost his entire life researching and learning magical knowledge, and is extremely eager to unravel this question that has plagued him for decades.
Zhang Cheng is a mage and a person who pursues power. He understands the other party's ideas very well, but he did not give an answer immediately, but instead asked in a playful tone: Why should I explain? What is the benefit to me? Count? Know that knowledge is expensive, and if you want something, you must exchange it for something of equal value.
Oh? Then what is the same value? Leighton Hightower raised the corners of his mouth confidently.
It is estimated that in his opinion, with the huge wealth accumulated by the Hightower family for thousands of years, no matter how outrageous the price the other party proposes, he can be satisfied.
Hehe, very simple, I think the tower is a good equivalent. As long as you agree to give it to me, then I can not only explain the secret of the disappearance of magic, but also tell you about the real purpose of this tower. You know, Although you have realized that the tower is a building used to study and learn magic, it has not actually used a tenth of its power. And I will show you how amazing this tower is. …”
As the last word fell, Zhang Cheng raised his hand and injected a burst of energy into the wall that was flickering with dim light.
moment!
The originally dim light suddenly became dazzling, as if some incredible power had been awakened.
Before the people around could react to what was going on, a surging energy began to spew out from below, lighting up the runes with different shapes one after another on the wall.
The moment the last rune was lit, the flaming fire on the top of the tower exploded with a bang, replaced by a dark blue crystal the size of a small boat.
Under the sunlight, there is a continuous flow of mercury-silver liquid in the center of the crystal. It is so deep and charming that anyone who sees it will stop all movements involuntarily, with a dull expression as if under mental control.
Damn! You... what did you do? Moroya asked loudly with a vigilant look on her face.
Relax, dear, I didn't do anything, I just woke up this tower that had been sleeping for an unknown period of time. Zhang Cheng ignored the guards who drew out their long swords and put on a fighting posture, and explained to himself. road.
Wake up? Moroa keenly grasped a key word.
Yes! Wake up! Zhang Cheng nodded without thinking. Although I don't know whether the tower is closed because of energy exhaustion, or the builder actively closed, in short, it has been in a semi-closed state, otherwise it can easily set off storms and tsunamis with its own power, any fleet that dares to approach. And the soldiers will be destroyed in an instant. But you, you are stupid to use it as a lighthouse, a fortress. But it doesn't matter, I will correct this mistake immediately.
