Chapter 289: Curse attack

Sitting and waiting for death is not Chardonnay's style. Even if the Mage Tower is attacked without considering the unknown enemy, Lord Epps may find him afterwards.
Of course, from a rational point of view, the enemy may not have something to do with mystery, but apart from this, Xia Duo couldn't think of any possibility.
After all, his time to become a mid-level mage is too short, and it is not obvious, it is difficult to get in touch with the deep secrets, especially the rules of the game about the ruling class of Netheril.
Therefore, Chateau feared unknown enemies even more than Lord Epps.
Time passed by, and the mage tower did not vibrate again, as if the previous vibration was just an illusion.
Maybe the enemy was beaten back? So it should be Taling's call next, right?
The sense of crisis in Xia Duo's heart has been slightly reduced, but he is still a little worried about the meeting with Lord Epps. Isn't the person who is most afraid of being caught coming to the door?
Of course, Xia Duo did nothing wrong with one willing to dump and the other willing, but the inequality in strength made him worry.
With a sense of anxiety, Xia Duo took out his notes and began to study, right to dispel the anxiety in his heart.
...
The top of the Tower of Time, the Lord's Study.
Niya and her father Epps sat opposite each other, staring at each other's cups, silent. Abbock also sat aside, but he just woke up, his eyes were still a little confused.
He remembered that he had just teleported from Savile to Daxia, but he didn't know anything about the next thing. He only knew that he was already in the mage tower when he woke up again.
"Eps, what happened? What happened to the Tower of Time—" Ebbock had never experienced the Tower of Time Teleportation.
In other words, the Tower of Time has never moved since it was built!
Even in the entire Netheril, it is rare to hear of any mage tower that can be teleported. This is obviously not a regular ability.
Ebbock's question broke the silence of Nia and Epps. Epps glanced at his daughter. Although Nia didn't say or ask anything, he could feel her daughter's dissatisfaction and worry.
Ugh--
Epps sighed secretly in his heart, and began to explain to Ebbock, "There has been a relic of a mysterious lock. When I was exploring, I encountered an elf and clashed, so I called the Tower of Time."
Epps said a few words simply, but Abbock knew the truth was definitely not that simple, but he didn't need the truth, all he needed was an explanation.
This can be regarded as a tacit understanding between him and Epps, but he still has to ask the questions that should be asked, such as—
"There is no mage tower on the other side of the territory that is unstable, when can the tower of time go back?"
"This will take time. I'm afraid it won't work in a short time." Epps frowned, and he also thought of this question.
If it was in the past, it would take at least three years for the Tower of Time to accumulate the energy transmitted as a whole, and now there is plane crystallization, then--
He also didn't know that the current tower master had been replaced by Niya, and he had no authority to know this absolutely secret matter.
After thinking about it, Epps said again, "Let's go to the teleport room, Ebbock, activate the portal to connect to Savile Town, and we'll go back in a while."
Abbock responded, then got up, his gaze turned back and forth over the father and daughter, and finally turned away without saying anything.
In fact, in his mind, he had already thought of a more serious problem, and that was the enlightenment he got when he advanced. Epps was hit by a wizard spell.
What was the result, he didn't even dare to ask, for fear of knowing some bad news.
Abbock was very dissatisfied that Epps had kept his followers from him and went to explore the fans alone, but he couldn't say anything fierce, so he could only do his best to do his own thing.
...
Abbock's departure caused the study to fall into silence again. In the end, Epps couldn't stand the oppressive atmosphere and said pretendingly:
"Niya, the celebration is not over yet, go back when the portal opens!"
At the end, Epps suddenly groaned. Before he could think of any excuses, he saw his daughter's expression of horror.
"Ni—"
Epps was about to explain that Niya had interrupted him, her voice trembling, "No, father, your hair! Father, what's wrong with you?"
Niya suddenly jumped up from the chair, rushed to Eps, and looked at her father carefully. Not only her hair, but her complexion faded.
Epps noticed the look in his daughter's eyes. He stretched out his hand to touch his hair and cheeks, but he only reached halfway and stopped.
Because there is no need to pass the sense of touch, he has already seen directly—
The skin on the back of my hand ~EbookFREE.me~ somehow, it suddenly became dry and wrinkled, as if it was suddenly a teenager. Epps trembled in his heart, and sure enough, what should come is still coming.
Only now I know what the result is.
Niya was crying like a tearful person, "Father! Father!"
The sudden inheritance of the Tower of Time made her feel uneasy, but when she saw her father with her own eyes, she was lucky, but now—
Niya really can't accept this reality!
"Niya, don't cry, I'm fine!" Epps didn't pretend to be relaxed this time, but the situation was indeed not as normal as he said.
It's just a sudden acceptance of reality.
Compared to sudden aging, the loss of strength is the most unacceptable for Epps. He had received the last blow from the Light Elf before. Although he survived, he found that his ability to cast spells was degrading.
Until the sudden aging just now, he had almost lost all his ability to cast spells, and now he is not much different from an ordinary apprentice mage.
And this is not the end.
Epps comforted his daughter distressedly, and did not tell the worst news, but in fact, it won't last long.
When Niya's mood stabilized a bit, Epps slowly said, "The last finger of the elf was a curse, falling on the soul. If it weren't blocked by a few talisman, then I would have died. "
"Let's go to Sevinton, the Austrian Law Federation must have a way!" Niya wiped her tears and said quickly, "If it doesn't work, you can also ask the princess or grandfather's teacher for help.
Indeed, there is never unsolvable magic, just the price?
The final blow of a high elf wizard, who can break it? What's the price?
