The mage arrives

679 Under the Tower

"I can feel the presence of Ania. She is somewhere below us..." Gordon opened his eyes, and told Jier the conclusion he had just obtained from immersing himself in the spiritual world.

"Really? Then what are we waiting for, go down and find her."

"No problem, but it's better for us to be more cautious. I can feel that the cold attribute energy in the air has become more and more intense after I walked into this Tower of Eternity. Moreover, I also smelled A breath of a dragon."

Seeing Gordon's stern face, Ji'er couldn't help feeling solemn, and she quietly grasped the Longgang sword.

At this time, the two of them had just passed through the suspended corridor, from the side tower to the main tower.But Gordon and Jill, who had just experienced a long climb, had to go down again.

Although he couldn't experience it personally because of the protection of spells, Gordon could still feel that since he entered the Tower of Eternity, the temperature in the surrounding environment has been getting lower and lower.This feeling becomes more and more obvious every time you go down one floor.It was as if the two were heading towards the poles.

When the Akhosians built the Tower of Eternity, although its main function was to serve as a waterworks to provide clean, clean water for the entire city, this giant building also had other functions.For example, because of the continuous supply of pure water, some magical experiments that require a large amount of water can be carried out here.The top of the tower was set up as a very cutting-edge magic laboratory at that time.

Moreover, because the people of Arkhosia like to take a bath, there is one main tower and two auxiliary towers in the Tower of Aion.Both are built with plenty of bathrooms.The Akhosians have a custom of communal bathing, and a most peculiar custom.They bathe regardless of gender.

Therefore, the various baths in the Tower of Aion are not only places for Akhosians to clean their bodies and socialize at the same time.It is also a place where men and women openly pursue sexual pleasure.

Dragons are inherently obscene.The Dragonborn family also has habits similar to the dragons.The entire Arkhosian Empire is very open about sex, so it's not surprising that Arkhosians would go to the public baths in groups to participate in that kind of promiscuous party.The murals that Gordon and Jill saw in a bathroom in the side tower just now can reflect this custom.

Ever since he learned about the customs of the Akhosian Empire, Gordon felt that even if the empire had not been destroyed in the brutal civil war between the two camps, sooner or later, it would be because of this overly open and chaotic sex. concept is destroyed.

Originally, the dragon descendants, who were the ruling class, only occupied a very small part of the population structure of the empire.Keep messing around like this every day, pursuing carnal pleasures, and giving up the obligations of family and reproduction, and the infectious diseases caused by chaotic behavior will make the birth rate of dragonborn even lower.The final result is naturally self-evident.

After passing through the luxurious restaurant, changing room, sauna room, bathhouse and other facilities already occupied by snow and huge ice blocks, Gordon and Jier finally went all the way down to the lowest floor of the main tower of the Aion.

Those above are the places that were originally open to the public, and the real core of the whole tower lies: the whole set of water supply from the water elemental plane through the space channel.It is underground in the tower, and it is very tightly protected.

Here, Gordon could smell the growing uneasiness in the air.His actions began to become more and more cautious, and he kept using the secret magic eye to find the way.If you don't ensure complete safety, you will definitely not go forward with Jier.

Because of being cautious, the natural forward speed slowed down.

It took a long time.The two of them came to the corner of a long corridor.Gordon sent out the Mystic Eye to continue exploring and just flew around the corner.At the end of the passage ahead, there is a shadowy thing.

"Someone? Enemy?"

Gordon had only just discovered each other.Unexpectedly, the reaction on the other side was extremely quick, and two flaming arrows were shot directly, destroying his secret magic eye.

"Ji'er, get ready to fight!"

After Gordon finished speaking, he didn't hold back, and directly used his strongest attack spell - Unlimited Sword Control.

Who knew that just after the sharp long swords gathered in a group, before they launched an attack, a familiar voice came from the opposite side: "Master Lindeman, don't! This is a misunderstanding. I am Aziz, and the person who made the attack just now is My sister Kaya!"

After the sound fell, a lighting ball rose up, illuminating the extremely low-visibility aisle.

Indeed, as the voice said, the shadow that Gordon spotted just now was actually Aziz's younger sister.And farther away, the mage with a turban, a big beard, and a desert attire even in the extremely cold environment, which seemed extremely unsuitable, was an acquaintance who had taken an adventure with Gordon not long ago.

Gordon didn't go out immediately. He didn't go out with Jier until he opened the Eye of Reality and Warning and checked carefully, knowing that there was no disguise on the other side.

"I'm glad you two survived." Gordon said with a smile after seeing Aziz.

In that adventure team, apart from Geralt, it can be said that this mage is the person he hits with the most. Seeing that the other party survived the battle last night, both brothers and sisters are safe and sound, Gordon Also very happy.

Aziz stroked his beard, and said with a smile: "I am also very happy to see that you and your lady knight follower are safe and sound."

Kaya beside him bowed to Gordon and muttered a lot.

The other party did not understand the common language, and Gordon knew very little about the desert language of the southern continent.Because every desert tribe may have its own language, unless it is a real master of linguistics, or a guy who has nothing to do, it is impossible to specialize in learning those difficult and troublesome languages.

Fortunately, Gordon at least roughly understood the meaning of the other party. She was apologizing for her act of destroying the secret magic eye just now.

"It's okay," Gordon waved his hand, expressing that he didn't mind.

Aziz laughed, put his arms around Kaya's waist, and then said to Gordon: "Master Lindeman, I'm sorry, this is the first time for my sister to travel far, and she has never left the tribe before, so it is not Don't know the common language."

"The first time I went out, I came to the endless abyss. It's really amazing..." Gordon smiled, and then noticed that the relationship between the brother and sister seemed a little unusual.

Reminiscent of Ben Latu's surname, in addition to the name of "Great Warlock Family", there is another nickname that is not very easy to get, Gordon seems to understand something...

"Could it be elopement?" The more he thought about it, the more likely it was.

Of course, Aziz would not know that the middle-aged fat man with a wretched appearance was guessing about the relationship between his siblings.After a brief greeting, he said to Gordon with a serious face: "Master Lindeman, do you also want to go to the bottom of the Tower of Eternity?"

"Yes. But I'm not interested in that water system. I just think an acquaintance is trapped down there."

Gordon expressed his purpose directly.In this way, Aziz will also understand that he and the other party have no fundamental conflict of interest, and can communicate frankly.

"That would be the best. If you also want to obtain the highest crystallization of Arkhosia's magical technology, I have such a competitor, and I am afraid that I will feel great pressure." Aziz half-jokingly said .

The bearded mage and his sister were in the same situation as Jier and Gordon. They were also transported to the Tower of Eternity after being integrated into the ray of light released by the red dragon Titanis using the Eternal Orb.

After finding out where he was, Aziz was very excited for a while.He thinks this is the arrangement of fate, the favor of the goddess.Otherwise, how could he, who wanted to explore the secrets of the Tower of Eternity, be randomly sent to this destination?

However, Aziz encountered difficulties when entering the underground main building of the Tower of Eternity.

He led Gordon and Jill around in the dark underground passage, down several flights of stairs, and finally came to a hall.Although the place is still covered by countless solid ice, like an ice cave that has been frozen for thousands of years, Gordon feels that the temperature of the environment seems to have risen a lot, and it is already above the freezing point.

"These ices are no longer naturally condensed. It is very likely that they can survive because of the strong cold energy in the air."

While Gordon was observing the surrounding environment, Aziz led the three of them to a huge metal door on the east side of the hall.The surrounding walls are all covered by translucent blue ice, so this door showing its original appearance is really very conspicuous.

"If we can open this door, we will be able to enter the core area of ​​the Tower of Eternity. It's just that I can't open it."

Aziz pointed helplessly at the metal gate.

Gordon took a closer look at the gate, and found that its design and manufacture were very clever. The exquisitely carved and vivid reliefs on it concealed many complex and extremely powerful protective magic circles.And the most troublesome thing is that the core of the entire protective circle of this gate is on the other side.In other words, unless Gordon could penetrate the wall and reach the other side, it would be possible to crack the protective circle of the entire gate and open it.

The problem is, if he really has the ability to walk through the wall without opening the door, why bother to open it?

This is a paradox.

"I guess when the Akhosians built this gate, they designed it so that it could not be opened from the outside." Aziz said, and then his style changed, "But I still have a way, but I still need to Some help."

"help?"

"Yes. I couldn't open the door, but I went to find a helper who could."

After finishing speaking, the bearded mage shouted in the empty hall: "Mr. Andre, Mr. Andre!"

As soon as he finished speaking, a huge figure walked out from an ice wall. (To be continued..)
