Twenty Sided Dice

readx(); "Wendy, when did you become interested in these magic books?" Knox's mage crossed his arms, raised his chin and said arrogantly.

Siegel raised his head and glanced at the bald mage, his eyes filled with cold eyes. Such an expression had obviously never appeared on Mage Wendy's face before. That Knox took out his wand and stood guard in front of him.

It seems that Wendy's status in the magic tower is not high, which should have nothing to do with the level of magic - Siegel can feel the surging magic fluctuations in her body, the thick and tough power - it is her soft personality that makes everyone Take her lightly. In fact, as long as she is serious and shows a little claws or fangs, others will feel obvious threats.

"The mage tower you built is full of Knox-style spells. If you don't read these red magic books, would you explain it to me?" Siegel turned away with a cold voice, as if he didn't see the other party. Pulled out wand.

The two mages of Knox looked at each other and felt that Wendy's behavior was a bit abnormal. However, they were not stupid enough to use magic here, and left with doubts in their hearts. Siegel did this on purpose in order to create suspicion between members of the Federation and members of the Knox. However, these seeds can only really sprout and bloom after he has dug a hole and filled it with soil and watered it. So Siegel waited for them to close the door, then took out his wand and drew the engram of the magic circle in the air.

In the original design of the Mage Tower, this room was used to place the control hub. The red crystal magic tower collects the energy generated by the daily thinking of the city residents, and uses the magic circle formed by the laughter badge to store and transform it. When the Knox Commonwealth wants to attack, it must be controlled from the hub.

At the same time, the hub of the mage tower also has the ability to control all protective spells of the entire building. Most of the time, the protective spells on the outer walls don't always run at maximum power, and the counter-attacking magic circles generally don't activate, only the detection and protection spells never rest.

If the elves launch an attack, they need to activate the full power of all the circles through the hub. This is a very important place, the hub was deliberately relocated after the Magic Tower accident. hid.

Siegel uses the magic circle to enhance the effect of detecting magic spells, and combines positioning and spell analysis. This is a technique commonly used by prophecy mages, which can quickly detect the fluctuations of surrounding magic and the traces left by them in the past.

Most of the libraries are simple protective spells, such as waterproofing, fireproofing, and keeping the environment comfortable and stable. None of this is Siegel's goal. was left aside by him. There are also many necromantic spells, such as targeting various worms and small animals that are destructive to books, and there are also a lot of instant death spells. Among all these strange lines, Siegel was looking for control spells, especially control spells for enchanting spells.

Hard work pays off. He finally found a clue in one corner of the wall.

The magic barrier line drawn from the red magic tower changed direction under the floor of the top floor, and came to the back of a bookcase along the corner of the wall. A protective spell barrier is released on the bookcase. If the correct opening sequence is not known, it will definitely cause an alarm, or even suffer a direct spell attack.

There is no other way to bypass this entrance, it is too difficult to crack the spell and requires a high level of spell attainment. Fortunately, I have seen the blueprints here before, and know how to bypass most of the spells, but there are some that are not on the blueprints. Siegel doesn't know where it came from.

There must be someone in this magic tower who knows, and more than one. The safety of the hub is very important, but more importantly, in the event of an emergency, the hub can work normally. Siegel guessed that there were at least three full-fledged wizards of the Knox Common Order on the tower who knew how to open the control room door.

Siegel estimated that the spellcasting level of these three people should be similar to his own, and it is difficult to judge the strength if they do not really fight. Everyone has their own strengths, and there must be hidden cards. And in this red magic tower, the Knox Common will be the home court, and their mages can use more power than Siegel. Then again, even if Siegel beat one of the mages. In what way can he find the information he needs from his memory?

Fighting against Knox's mages in the field of mind control is almost a death sentence.

That's why Siegel turned his mind to the rest of the Mage Tower. According to his observations, Wendy, who patrols the Mage Tower every day and is a Protection Department specializing in Mage, is the most likely candidate.

Siegel was less than a last resort. He really didn't want to use it - he knew very well that his behavior was a real "use" - this female mage named Wendy. First of all, she was not a member of Knox's joint meeting, and she did nothing wrong, and it was not in Siegel's turn to punish her. This elf war has nothing to do with her, and even if a battle with Knox occurs, she is a potential ally rather than an enemy.

She's just an ordinary person who happens to know key information.

Wendy was timid and self-isolating in the impression of other mages. Always confused and distracted. However, she is very good at protection spells, and ordinary spells can radiate extraordinary vitality in her hands, raising a whole level.

This also placed higher requirements on Siegel's plan: simply using verbal communication, it was almost impossible for Siegel to establish a relationship of mutual trust with her in a short period of time, and this could only be achieved with the help of magic. But as a protection mage, Wendy's defensive spells are complex, and only the "euthanasia" magic circle of the Knox Common Society can work on her.

Siegel actually didn't know the name of this circle, but he couldn't call it the "Laughter" circle. The mage thought of eating several of his colleagues alive in the red spire, and felt that the three words "euthanasia" were the most suitable.

From reading Knox's books and deducing spells, Siegel learned how the circle was designed: its ultimate purpose is control. Once affected by "euthanasia", the way of thinking of the target of the spell will be subtly changed, and it will be difficult to get rid of its spell effects throughout his life. It's just that the degree of change in behavior patterns varies according to each person's willpower and the length of time they've been controlled by the spell.

Siegel was still hesitating. He used the spellcasting skills of the Knox Common Society and borrowed some of the power of the magic tower to successfully establish a friendship with Wendy. The next job is to subtly control her mind and let her become her helper.

How long can I leave it to myself, there will never be another week, right? Efforts to crack the entrance to the control room were almost at a standstill, and it was time to resort to alternatives.

When he knocked on the door of Wendy's lounge, the door actually opened by itself.

To save space, each mage's room is very simple, with only simple furniture such as beds, tables, chairs, and cabinets. Some magic towers are arranged with space effect magic circles. Can make a small room bigger. But Knox will build multiple magic towers at the same time, and obviously they don't have the energy to invest in this area.

Wendy's room was a little cramped to accommodate two people, not because of the size of the room, but Wendy's dress. Completely different from her usual serious and conservative dress. Wendy is now wearing light and elegant clothes that accentuate her graceful curves. Her original appearance was very good, and today she put on light makeup, put on earrings, necklaces and bracelets, and made a careful dress.

"You... hello. Mr. Soth." Wendy greeted with a smile.

Siegel closed his eyes, let out a long sigh, and forced himself to be ruthless. The red magic tower sensed his thoughts and responded to his spell call. Some magical fluctuations that affect thinking passed over and permeated Wendy's room.

"Mage Wendy, we meet again," Siegel's voice was very soft, like the finest velvet. "I've finished my work, and I've come to see what you need. Beautiful lady, tell me."

Wendy felt a little flustered by the spell. I don't even know what to do with the man on the other side. She feels very happy now. In fact, she just wants to taste this feeling quietly now, and nothing else matters.

Seeing the female mage's expression, Siegel knew that the power of the magic circle was too strong, especially for those who had been affected by magic. He flicked the fingers hidden under the long sleeves lightly, weakening the influence of the magic circle. If Wendy was completely hit, she wouldn't want to do anything, let alone provide a spell for the entrance to the control room.

"I'm here to see you," Siegel said. "What's bothering you about that scene on the stairs today?"

Wendy bit her lower lip and pinched her thigh with her fingernails. To keep yourself focused. "I...I want you to teach me how to clear my mind and meditate better."

Siegel stepped forward, raised his hand, and placed it by Wendy's ear. Arrange her hair. He is now so close to the female mage that the latter can clearly feel the strange temperature emanating from under his mage's robe. Wendy didn't need to resort to magic, she could feel the strong, toned and vigorous body of the man in front of her, and a weird but not unpleasant smell wrapped her around her. She swallowed quietly and cleared her throat, fearing that her voice would tremble when she spoke.

"Thank you." She realized that her tone had changed, and the embarrassment in her heart almost made her cry. Control yourself and don't make a bad impression on him! Wendy kept shouting in her heart, adding strength to herself.

Siegel put a strand of fluttering hair behind Wendy's ear, and the slight touch of his fingertips made the female mage's ear red. He took a half step back, and although he said sorry, his tone was more gentle and considerate. "I saw that you almost fell down the stairs. I reached out to support you~www.readwn.com~ It was a bit abrupt. At that time, you had a lot of protection spells on your body, so you shouldn't be injured. I was a bit of a nosy."

"No, absolutely not." Wendy hurriedly raised her head and looked into Siegel's eyes. "Thank you for helping me. Not only did you help me, but more importantly, it drove the ghosts away for me. I was at a loss and couldn't do anything but tremble. The ghosts seemed to be sucking me dry, and they almost died. It worked!"

It's just a shadow of illusion, Siegel thought. The translucent crystal wall has a good effect on light transmission, and uses its refracting surface to cast illusion images cast in other places. If there is only light, there is no magic fluctuation, even if the detection magic can not see any clues. Moreover, the walls of the mage tower itself have magic resistance, and very weak magic reactions will be covered up.

Through observation, Siegel knew that Wendy was a very social and introverted person, but it was a rare trait that she was so afraid of ghosts. This matter has both advantages and disadvantages to his plan, and may be able to be used as a means.

But the expression in Wendy's eyes made Siegel a little uneasy. (To be continued.)

PS: The scale can only be like this, there is no way, hehehehe.
