Chapter 1060: Parliament appropriation, transfer of authority

[网] The Lord of Arcane "Crunch"
Hearing the sound, Xia Duo immediately turned his gaze to the mage tower where the sound originated, and saw a door slowly opening on the gray outer wall of the mage tower.
Before the door was fully opened, a tall figure rushed out of the mage tower. He first swept his gaze outside the tower. After noticing the existence of Xia Duo, he immediately bowed slightly and bowed solemnly:
"His Excellency Chateau, Master Savile, and Steven Giles Tower's expatriate have seen two of them."
Xia Duo can tell from the emblem on the counter-method robes that the other party is indeed the Giles Tower. It is basically unlikely that someone would dare to fake it, let alone that it was originally the domain of the princess family, and it is even more impossible to fake it.
Judging from the magical aura of the opponent, even the middle-level mage of the seven towers would probably not be so rich. This Steven has a high probability of being a high-level mage.
And if the opponent is an Arcanist, it is basically unlikely to be stationed here to guard the tower.
But even so, Xia Duo gave the other party full respect: "Master Steven, lucky to meet!"
"Your Excellency Chateau is polite, the two are here to receive the watchtower, I have received the notice, please come with me, both of you." Steven looked respectful.
After speaking, he stretched out a hand and lied to the watch tower behind him, motioning for Xia Duo and Niya to follow. Xia Duo and Niya looked at each other, and both saw the confirmation message in the eyes of the other party.
In fact, no matter how many bad assumptions have been made before coming, the possibility that the Watchtower will be a trap is extremely low after all.
Not to mention, if an ordinary high-level mage is so close to Xia Duo, he really has to be careful, Xia Duo's flying sword is not a vegetarian.
Someone came out of the watchtower, and Chateau was basically certain that there would be no traps here.
...
As soon as he entered the watch tower, Xia Duo was sure that this mage tower was indeed inferior to the tower of time.
Although from the outside, this watchtower is taller than the Tower of Time, but the difference inside is too far. There is a space folding effect almost everywhere inside the Tower of Time, and here
How big it looks from the outside and how big it is inside, there is no folding space, at least Xia Duo hasn't seen it along the way.
"Your Excellency Chateau, Master Savile, this watchtower has been built for nearly three hundred years. For these three hundred years, it has always served as the lighthouse of the Hubble Harbor route, and this duty needs to be continued after the handover. ."
Speaking of this, Steven paused on purpose, but neither Chateau nor Niya showed any concern.
Although Chateau also considered that it might cost a lot to maintain the super bright lighting spell outside, it is a white mage tower after all, not to mention the mithril share that can be obtained from the Arcane Federation every year. , It’s worth the big price to maintain it.
You must know that whether it is a dwarf or an elf, the amount of mithril exported to Netheril is very tight. Except for digging the ruins, most of the mithril currently circulating on the market comes from the distribution of the Arcane Federation.
Any registered mage tower can get a certain share. Of course, the Mithril itself still needs to be bought with money. If you don't use that much, you can also sell the share.
At present, the Tower of Time has achieved mass production of three magic items (communication instruments, vigilant charms, and missile wands). In the foreseeable future, there will be more mass production types.
Even now, the Mithril reserves of the Tower of Time are a bit tight. Before owning the Mithril mine, in addition to recycling this kind of throttling method, the only way to purchase and increase income was to purchase.
But you must know that the design of mass production of magic items is not only the Tower of Time. In fact, as long as the layer of window paper is broken, almost all mage towers are capable of doing such a design.
At that time, the demand for resources, especially the relatively fixed amount of Mithril imported each year, will increase.
In order to get an extra share from the Austrian Law Federation, you can't go to build a mage tower!
But what if there is a mage tower that comes in vain?
That's different.
However, the real surprise is yet to come-
Steven saw that the two were unmoved. He didn't know if the princess had explained in advance, or the two really didn't care, but he couldn't deliberately mislead, so he quickly explained:
"But don't worry about the two. The Sevinton Council will be responsible for the maintenance of the watchtower as a lighthouse of the route. Generally, it is 100,000 gold coins per year, delivered in the form of mithril and Ao Neng crystals."
When Xia Duo heard this, the corners of Xia Duo's mouth rose slightly, and she glanced at Niya, and Niya's eyes were also very surprised.
Then Steven said: "In the beginning, the lighting technique on the top of the watchtower could be easily seen at night, and it could also be easily seen on the Seventon side. However, because of the high maintenance cost, the brightness was reduced year by year until now.
"After the two take over, they can also choose the brightness by themselves. You only need to ensure the normal navigation function of the lighthouse. Specifically, it is to increase the brightness in foggy and rainy weather. It doesn't matter if it is slightly darker at ordinary times. It can cover the maintenance of the entire mage tower."
"..."
Maybe there is a balance!
Xia Duo immediately realized the tricky inside. In fact, the form of the lighthouse could be improved. Instead of using the diffuse light spell, it was irradiated in the form of rays, which saved even more.
However, he didn't know whether the beacon in the form of a beam would be accepted by the Seventon Parliament. If the maintenance funding was to be reduced as a result, he would have to study and study.
...
Soon, under the leadership of Steven, Xia Duo and Niya circled up the spiral staircase close to the inner wall of the mage tower, and came to the main control layer of the watch tower.
The four-element pool of the watchtower is located on this floor. Comm and the transfer of related permissions are also limited to this layer.
When he arrived in the inheritance room, Steven summoned a simple-shaped scepter, and on a round table about higher than the ground with complicated lines painted on it, he relieved himself of the synchrony with the scepter.
Then he walked off the round table, handed the scepter to Niya, and said, "Mage Savile, please stand in the inheritance circle and coordinate with the watch scepter. This is an indispensable step for transferring authority."
Niya reached out and took the scepter, then glanced at Xia Duo, and Xia Duo nodded. Then Niya walked to the round stage and began to link the scepter to herself.
After a while, Niya took the scepter and walked down the round table with a little doubt in her eyes. She asked Steven, "Is this all right?"
"That's all right." Steven replied affirmatively, "This mage tower does not have a tower spirit, all authority is concentrated on this scepter, and you can control this mage tower if you master the scepter.
"But note that once the scepter leaves the mage tower, the mage tower cannot be operated, and the mage tower will automatically enter the alert state."
