The night passed quickly, and the light of the morning shined on the window. Although the light of the morning and the light of the night did not seem to be much different, they were both false starlight, not the sun, but the light of the morning was stronger than the light of the night. The light has a touch of warmth and golden afterglow.
At the moment when the light appeared in the morning, the two-dimensional life gathered outside the window disappeared instantly as if it had never existed. Leo's spiritual vision only saw the folded space.
This night can be said to be a near miss. The building where Leo is located is very powerful. Even if countless two-dimensional beings have been gathered outside the building, the power of the building itself can still block these two-dimensional beings from the outside.
Leo wanted to know the principle of the building blocking two-dimensional life, because only by knowing the principle, can he make magical magical objects with similar effects by himself, so that he can safely continue to explore the folding space of this wizard tower.
Although he doesn't know how dangerous the folded space is, he can guess that the two-dimensional life that makes him feel dangerous should be the biggest threat. If there is no way to solve these two-dimensional life, then he will continue to explore this A wizard's tower will only put itself at risk.
However, what disappointed him was that after a night of repeated inspections, he had never been able to find any clues to resist the entry of two-dimensional life from this library-like building. There was no obvious special power in the whole building. , and there is no symbolic pattern that contains mysterious power, and the materials used in the building are only ordinary wood and stone.
Only, the entrance of each room has some special symbols used to filter the entrants, but these symbols have absolutely nothing to do with the unknown force blocking two-dimensional life.
In this case, Leo couldn't help but start to consider whether he should continue to explore this wizard tower.
If you continue to explore, you will naturally be able to gain more benefits and benefits. There are more than 100 million books in just one small town that provides services for apprentices. I believe there are many other towns. Moreover, the collection of books and collections in the central castle Treasures will only be more or less, and this is not to mention that the tower in the tower that penetrates the sky must also contain the most core mysteries about the tower wizard.
With such a huge benefit in front of him, even if Leo has an extraordinary and powerful state of mind, it will be difficult to control his heartbeat, but this kind of heartbeat is not strong, even considering the continued exploration, it is very likely to encounter two-dimensional Attacks of life, or even attacks of other mystical forces hidden within the wizard's tower, then these great benefits become less attractive.
When faced with a choice, Leo took a few deep breaths to suppress the violent fluctuations in his heart, closed his eyes and pondered for a moment, and finally made a decision that he would most likely regret in the future. He gave up continuing to explore the wizard tower, and immediately leave here.
After making the decision, Leo didn't stay in this building any longer, he left directly, and rushed towards the rune disc he came from outside the town.
Although he decided to leave, he did not completely give up the possibility of exploring this place in the future, so while leaving the town, he also left some of his own psychic marks. If one day he is in the warp, maybe If he can sense this, he can directly enter here to explore, of course, the premise is that he has mastered the method of dealing with two-dimensional life and not being assimilated by it.
In comparison, the astronomical apparatus needs to be correct and unknown to enter the wizard's tower. It is much simpler to leave the wizard's tower. The rune is stimulated directly through psionic energy, and then it is sent directly out of the wizard's tower, returning to the real world. in Lake Nia.
I don't know how much time he spent in the wizard's tower converted to the real world. In short, he saw the reflection of the wizard's tower in the water was very blurry at this time, and the astronomical apparatus at the top of the wizard's tower was no longer a corpse, and it seemed that it could not be used. How long will it dissipate completely, and it is impossible to enter the wizard tower by normal means.
Leo did not leave immediately, but carefully sensed the psionic imprint he had left in that small town. As he expected, he was completely unable to perceive the existence of any imprint.
Although the result was unsatisfactory, it did not disappoint Leo much. He packed up his emotions, floated up from the bottom of the lake, identified the direction, and rushed towards the north where the Belmont family migrated.
In the old continent, the biggest event is naturally the war between the two noble forces in the central region and the southern region, and the fuse of the war, the assassination of the protector of the country Barbarisa has not been mentioned by many people. More willing to talk about the trend of the war, who can finally unify the central and southern parts of the Middle Kingdom region, because they all know that the person who unifies the middle and southern regions will most likely eventually become the real rulers of the Middle Kingdom region, and the Middle Kingdom region will be Welcome to the unified kingdom of their dreams.
This matter is not only concerned by the nobles and people of various countries, but even the churches in the Old World are also particularly concerned about this war. Whether it is the Church of the True God or the Church of the Underground Evil God, they secretly sent their own observers into the Middle Kingdom area to observe The trend of this war, when necessary, make some help "within one's capacity", but this help is not to help the unification of the Middle Kingdom, but to prevent the unification of the Middle Kingdom.
On the issue of whether the Middle Kingdom region should be unified or not, both the Church of the True God and the Church of the Heretic God are surprisingly unanimous. They all think that the status quo in the Middle Kingdom region can be maintained, and there is no need for unification.
It's just that the church can't make it clear about this matter, and it's even more impossible to send church armed forces to join the war, so they are all thinking about the progress of the war, and then at an appropriate time to secretly provide some help to the weaker party, and then Maintain the balance of power.
Although the Church of the True God and the Church of the Evil God both have the same ideas, they obviously have not exchanged opinions and views with the stack beforehand, so that the clergy they dispatched to the Middle Kingdom region to serve as observers have not had time to fulfill their duties as observers. During the mission, they encountered a secret attack from a hostile church, so a contest between the Church of the True God and the Church of the Evil God actually started in the Middle Kingdom region before the war broke out in the central region and the southern region.
Throughout the Old Continent, many good people are speculating on the final winner of this Middle Kingdom regional war, and even some forces have opened up gambling games for this. It reached an astronomical figure, and many people who participated in the gambling game and even invested a lot of money secretly entered the surrounding countries of the Middle Kingdom area. It seemed that they planned to know the result of the war at the nearest distance, or they planned to know the outcome of the war in the near future. What you can do right away when you are betting against people you are betting against will regain momentum.
However, what surprised everyone was that what most people guessed might be a protracted war, but it ended at a speed far beyond ordinary people's imagination. It took less than 20 days in total to start the process, until all the dignitaries in the south were swept away, and the great nobles who sent assassins to kill themselves burned themselves to death.
The whole process of the war can be described with only one word, that is smooth wind and water, starting from the army of Barbarisa, it has experienced a total of more than 30 southern noble lords' territories, and thirteen battles have occurred, each time The average battle took less than an hour. It was almost not long after the battle began, the enemy collapsed, and then the noble lords either surrendered or were captured. Only in the final battle with Duke Joel in the Redwood Canyon lasted almost half a day. time.
After the Battle of Redwood Canyon, Duke Joel found that his army was distraught and could no longer win the war. He fled back to his territorial castle that night. Two days later, because he could not wait for the alliance from those who did With the support of the state, he set himself on fire in the castle, and Barbarisa completed the unification of the central and southern regions.
The progress of this war that will determine the future of the Middle Kingdom region can be said to have exceeded everyone's expectations. Even Barbarisa did not expect that everything would go so smoothly, so that when he communicated with his trusted generals later, he laughed. I have made a lot of arrangements in advance and have not yet displayed it.
Barbarisa is still like this, and the observers of the Church of True God and the Church of the Evil God who are trying to control the situation are naturally extremely shocked. They did not expect Duke Joel, who is known as the hegemon of the south, to be so vulnerable, and it made those who they did not expect to swear. The Duke of Joel's allies who sent reinforcements did not send any of them. Instead, they signed a series of peace contracts with Barbarisa as soon as the war ended, including countries that had a marriage relationship with Duke of Joel.
It is precisely because everything ended too quickly that the observers of these churches did not have time to send out useful information, nor did they have time to allocate resources from the church to support Duke Joel.
What was even more shocking to these church watchers was that just after the battle between the central and southern parts of the battle, nearly two-thirds of the northern lords, including the northernmost green emerald forest, sent envoys to meet Barbarisa. , clearly expressed their willingness to submit to Barbarisa. Although none of these envoys mentioned the topic of the establishment of the Middle Kingdom, everyone knew that the unification and establishment of the Middle Kingdom was basically a sure thing.
There is no doubt that the establishment of the Middle Kingdom has completely alarmed the countries of the Old World. They have sent their envoys to the Middle Kingdom to inquire about the situation. As for whether they want to see the establishment of the Middle Kingdom, or do not want to see this happen. It is unknown, because all the countries have not expressed any opinions or suggestions on this matter, as if they all intend to be a bystander, which also makes the overall political situation of the Old Continent extremely strange, as if the surface is a Wang stagnant water, but there is an undercurrent surging underneath.
Like the governments of various countries, the church has not expressed any opinion on this matter, but the clergy in the surrounding countries in the Middle Kingdom region seem to have become a lot more active, and some clergy of the Church of True God and members of the Church of the Evil God are often heard fighting. The rumors, and the church also sent some church armed forces to the surrounding countries of the Middle Kingdom area on the grounds of frequent activities and large numbers of members of the Church of the Cthulhu, and most of them were from the Church of Justice. The prestige that the Righteous Church has lost recently has been saved.
However, for the people of the old continent, whether the Middle Kingdom will be established or not, and whether Barbarisa will become the unification king are not their concern. They are more concerned about the outcome of the war and the payout. gold.
Gambles like guessing who will win Barbarisa or the Duke of York are not the focus of everyone's attention, because even if they guessed correctly, they will lose very little. What really attracts everyone's attention is that there are One person guessed when the war would end, and the payout would be an astonishing amount.
It's just that the forces that opened the gambling game didn't seem to plan to let the gambler get his bet so smoothly, because the time when the war was publicly announced by those forces was not the day Duke Joel set himself on fire, but a few days later. The day Barbarisa took over the Duke of Joel's castle, and that day there were no gamblers.
If the person who guessed the end time of the war was an ordinary person, he would never be able to compete with the forces that set up gambling games, but it is unbelievable that the gambler who predicted the end time of the war turned out to be from Barbarisa. Madam, UU reading www. uukanshu.com is also known as the Lady Protector.
As for why the Lady Protector, who had just recovered from her illness, pressed her husband's time to end the war, it was not because of her far-sighted wisdom, nor because of any magical hints Barbaliza gave her. In fact, Barbary Before the war, Sa didn't know when she could end the war. The reason why she pressed this time was completely an accident.
When Mrs. Huguo learned that outside forces had set up a bet on her husband's war, she was extremely angry, but she was unable to punish those forces. After that, she didn't know what to think. Perhaps it was the advice of her maid, she took it out. With her own money, she bought her husband's bet to win the war in a gambling game opened by different forces, and she asked the maid who bet for her to buy the bet of victory in the war more than 200 days later, but her maid Wrongly filled in more than 20 days, directly missing a zero, which eventually led to Mrs. Protector becoming the biggest winner in this gamble.
In the face of this situation, some forces can only change their mouths and pay the due bet. Although the amount of the bet is huge, these forces can still make some money from it, but there are still some forces who are insatiable and unwilling to change their words. , So in the following days, the leaders and sites of these forces were attacked by mysterious forces one after another, and the losses caused are unknown. He quickly changed the outcome of the bet and paid the bet.
It is precisely because of this that many people discovered for the first time that the seemingly very friendly protector Barbarisa also hides an unknown and extremely powerful underground force.
