Chapter 288: Upgrade procedure

She couldn't wait for a moment. Since the Mage Tower was unobstructed, why did her father die suddenly? Even if she might be in danger, she couldn't care so much.
"Master, the Tower of Time is damaged, unable to guide the teleportation."
Taling's feedback made Niya's heart sink again, "What happened over there? How could my father..."
"..." Taring was stuck first, and then replied: "The high wizard of the elves is coming, Mage Eps, Mage Eps, Mage Eps--"
Speaking of the back, Taring started to freeze again, making Niya feel angry. Fortunately, the communication between Taring and the tower owner was not only words, but also a deeper level of information exchange.
After receiving Niya's subconscious signal that she wanted to obtain more detailed information, Taring immediately sent a series of perception pictures
From the arrival of the mage tower, imprisoning the elf mage, to the sudden change of the lock, the arrival of the higher mage, and then to the unsuccessful trial of the higher mage. At the cost of the destruction of the lock, he rushed into the mage tower and took away the Stardew Scepter, and The last finger.
At the end, Niya let out an exclamation, "Father is not dead?!"
Taring did not respond, but Niya had already determined that her father was not dead. She really couldn't accept the reality of her father's death. She rubbed her cheeks and Niya tried to pretend to be relaxed.
Although the mage tower is damaged and his father is also injured, the enemy has disappeared and everything will be fine!
"By the way, where's Uncle Ebbock?"
Only then did she think of Abbock, who had already been transmitted in advance. The message from Taring just now didn't mention Abbock, and Niya was puzzled.
With the thoughts in his mind, Taring immediately began to reply, "Master, Mage Abbock is affected by the destruction of the lock and is in a coma!"
Then there came a picture from Taling. Abbock’s robe was damaged and he fell down not far from the Tower of Time, just in the chaotic area of ​​the magic web. However, the randomly generated magical effects would spontaneously hit Ebbock’s body. Dissolve it.
"It's Uncle Ebbock!"
Niya knew that Abbock had already advanced to an arcanist, and that Arcanine could passively comb through the magic net, but when the arcanist was in a coma, it would still play a role, it was difficult to predict.
It may be immune to 0-level and 1-level spells, but more advanced spells
"Taling, is there any way for me to return to the Tower of Time immediately?"
Not only because of Abbock, Niya wanted to confirm his father's state, even though he looked okay now, but the sudden start of the inheritance process still cast a shadow on Niya's heart.
"Master, no!"
But Taring also gave two alternative options-
One is to let the mages who are now in the Tower of Time repair the related magic circle and restore the guided teleportation function.
The other is to start the upgrade process, which is the reverse operation of the downgrade process. This can immediately restore the relevant functions, but the damage of the mage tower itself will not be repaired because of this. Doing so will make it impossible to downgrade again before the repair.
The low-level state of the mage tower is to replace the high-level magic circle with a large number of low-level magic circles, and replace the damaged low-level magic circles with the intact high-level magic circles after upgrading.
The highest energy level of the Tower of Time is level 11, which means that it has 11 sets of reserve arrays, (the Mage Tower has a higher level and has nothing to do with the actual combat power, and it can maintain the combat power of the 11 ring even at a low energy level).
Of course, considering that some of the magic circles involve various energy levels at the same time, there are actually less than 11 backup magic circles.
Now Niya faces two choices, one is to wait for the mage in the mage tower to repair, and the other is to upgrade to get full functionality at the risk of not being able to downgrade.
In this way, once you encounter an enemy who can isolate the magic net and can't reduce the energy level to maintain combat power, then the mage tower is not much different from a stone tower.
"Perform the upgrade procedure!" Niya hardly hesitated.
The current mage tower has been damaged, and key functions have been lost. It is hard to say whether the downgrade can continue. Rather than wait for the repair, it is better to upgrade first to get full functionality.
As for the enemy who can isolate the magic net, Niya can't take care of that far. She has to look at her eyes and talk about it. Without the transmission function, not only the people outside cannot get in, but the people inside cannot get out.
"Master, the upgrade procedure is in progress, please wait a moment--"
The higher the energy level of the mage tower, the higher the efficiency, and the upgrade and downgrade are also related to this. The higher the energy level, the faster the upgrade and downgrade speed.
At present, the tower is in the 6-ring state, so in fact only the magic circle in the 6-ring state has been damaged, and these damages may involve the magic circle in the lower energy state.
However, the upgrade will avoid these damaged magic circles and replace them with fewer high-level magic circles, so you can get the full function. In contrast, after upgrading, you can't downgrade because the related magic circle has been damaged.
While waiting, Niya paced back and forth between the pillars ~EbookFREE.me~ and prayed to the main hall inside.
The cheers of the celebration outside continued, impacting the temple from time to time, but Niya seemed to have heard no sound, hoping to complete the upgrade!
However, when we are going to leave, the follow-up of the celebration must also be handled. At the moment, the phantom of Uncle Ebbock and her is still maintained by her. Once she leaves, the phantom will dissipate.
There must be an explanation.
Otherwise, if the mage tower in front disappears and the acting lord disappears again, the lord himself will not show up. I don’t know what will happen next time!
The excuse of the secret experiment can be concealed from ordinary people, but not from the members of the Tower of Time.
Niya was pacing while looking for excuses. For a moment, Taring sent a message, "The upgrade is complete, the current 7th ring state, the function recovery progress, 87%, can guide the transmission."
Ugh--
Now that it has already started, I am not afraid to go to the end, Niya calmly ordered: "Continue to upgrade!"
But she didn't have to wait until all the functions were restored to transmit. She couldn't wait any longer. She told the Bishop Ambrill who co-chaired a few words that Niya controlled the two phantoms to come into the temple and let them disperse.
"Tarling, guide the teleportation!"
...
On the other side, inside the Tower of Time.
Xia Duo was checking around in the residence. Just now, the magic net suddenly became disordered, and accompanied by a sudden and short-term strong earthquake, although it quickly returned to normal, he could not calm down.
He had previously guessed that an enemy might be attacking the Mage Tower. Although Taring had sounded the alarm and the spell laboratory was also deactivated, it did not have much impact after all.
Then, while probing that Taling had not responded since the alarm was issued, he patiently waited for the chance to run.
