Chapter 110 007: Learning Tower
Just as Luo Xi expected, his battle with Charlotte immediately attracted great attention from the participating apprentices from major wizarding organizations. The apprentices who remained in the arena began to study spells targeting him. In the subsequent decisive stage of the game, Luo Xi clearly felt that his opponent's strength had improved significantly.
That's fine.
So after Luo Xi continued to win a few games, he chose a suitable opponent and lost to him. Coincidentally, the lucky guy he chose was none other than Lu Ze, who had had an unpleasantness with him a few years ago and was beaten up by him, and then came to him to borrow the magic stone.
Since the last time he borrowed the magic stone, Luo Xi's relationship with him has eased a lot. When he was too busy making magic tools, he even came to help.
Different from Luo Xi who takes things as they come, Lu Ze dreams of going to Fran for further studies. These days he has been practicing magic desperately and studying every possible competitor in detail.
He had studied the few spells that Luo Xi had displayed before very thoroughly, and he was even more cautious and careful when he entered the ring. Basically, every spell that Luo Xi released had an advance plan to crack it. It has to be said that if he really only used these few spells, Luo Xi really wouldn't have any good way to deal with him.
So Luo Xi went with the flow, pretending to walk into his carefully woven trap step by step. Finally, after he delayed the ice armor to the end, he got close to her and brought his wand within one step's distance of Luo Xi.
At this distance, there is basically no possibility for apprentices who have not mastered the displacement spell to avoid it. Therefore, according to the rules of the competition, when one apprentice points the magic wand in front of another apprentice at close range, he will be judged as the winner. Lu Ze can be said to have adopted a tricky method.
"Complete an effort to lose the game, generate a critical hit, time point +13 days."
After the game, Luo Xi couldn't wait to go to the school tower.
Elemental Castle, Learning Tower.
Standing in front of the school tower, Luo Xi looked up at the tall tower. The bluish-white ancient stone walls were covered with mottled nettles. These were not ordinary nettles. They were magical plants specially cultivated by wizards. Anyone who approached without permission would be attacked by them.
In addition, there are demon sculptures with wings on their backs standing in various corners of the tower. These sculptures are alchemical golems that anchor powerful demons, and each of them possesses strength that is no less than that of a wizard.
Together with the magic circles and magic traps arranged around the tower and the wizards stationed inside, the defense of this tower has reached a quite astonishing level. Even if a high-level wizard breaks in, he will not be able to escape unscathed.
Just from the strict security, it is not difficult to see the importance of this place to the Elemental Castle. It is indeed true. This can be said to be the most important area of the entire Elemental Castle, because what is stored here is nothing else but -
Knowledge!
All the core knowledge since the establishment of the Elemental Castle is stored here. In a sense, this is the core of the true core of the Elemental Castle.
“I can’t wait!”
Excited, Luo Xi took a step forward.
At the entrance was a lush green lawn filled with various dangerous magical plants such as carnivorous plants, vampire vines, and ghost grass. There was only a small path paved with blue-gray stone slabs running through the middle of the lawn.
These slabs are not ordinary slabs, but jump slabs with space properties. If you walk on them without permission, you will be teleported to the previous slab over and over again, making people feel like they are walking into an endless road.
“Hiss.”
"Clattery"
Seeing Luo Xi coming, the dangerous magical plants on the lawn suddenly became active. The carnivorous plant opened its big mouth, revealing its sharp fangs, the vampire vine began to extend towards Luo Xi, and the ghost grass began to make a low laugh like a ghost crying.
The whole lawn was filled with joy, like a beast that had scented its prey and was waiting to swallow it up as soon as it fell into its trap.
“Buzz…”
At the critical moment, a clear buzzing sound was heard, and the badge worn on Luo Xi's chest emitted a faint magical glow. Under the illumination of that light, the carnivorous plant quickly closed its mouth, the vampire vine retracted its tentacles, the ghost grass fell silent, and the lawn that had just been boiling suddenly became quiet again.
The badge already had the spiritual imprint left by the castle wizards, proving that he was the one who had permission, so the lawn certainly wouldn't dare to make things difficult for him.
He stepped onto the jump slab. With a light "click", the next second Luo Xi had crossed the wide lawn and appeared at the gate of the school tower.
The door was closed. It was covered with intricate patterns and on the top there was a relief of a human face. When Luo Xi walked up the stone steps, the relief suddenly came alive, moving its eyes and lingering on the badge on Luo Xi's chest for a moment, then
"Squeak~" sound.
The heavy stone door opened to both sides.
After entering through the stone gate, the interior of the school tower was exposed to Luo Xi's eyes. Although he had heard of this legendary tower before, when he actually saw its interior, Luo Xi still felt shocked unconsciously.
The first intuitive feeling is that it is big, really big!
It was like walking into a spacious and majestic palace. The height from the floor to the ceiling was nearly 100 meters. It was filled with corridors, spiral staircases, and arcades. There were a total of six floors from bottom to top.
Rows of neatly arranged bookshelves were arranged like dominoes, and they were densely packed with books. At a glance, there was no end in sight.
“Pah, pah!”
There was a sound of flapping wings, but the sound came not from birds but from books.
These books were turned upside down and opened in the middle, fluttering up and down like birds, flying in the air, either in groups or alone.
The sunlight shines in through the tall cross windows, leaving beams of light in the air and lighting up the bird books.
“Tsk tsk.”
Luo Xi stared at the scene in front of him in a trance. Although he had seen many strange things in the magical world in the past few years, the magical scene in front of him still attracted him.
It wasn't until a sudden voice in his ear brought him back to his senses.
It was a majestic voice, describing the rules here to him in a stern tone that could not be offended: "You are only allowed to browse knowledge on the first floor!"
"No transcribing allowed!"
"You are not allowed to use any magic that records or memorizes anything!"
"You only have three days. The countdown begins."
As the voice fell, an hourglass suddenly flew over from the air and hovered beside Luo Xi.
Luo Xi saluted to the top floor of the tower and said, "Apprentice Luo Xi, excuse me for disturbing you."
Then he walked to the bookshelf next to him and picked up a book.
"call"
Taking a deep breath quietly, Luo Xi couldn't help but feel a little nervous, and his heart began to beat faster involuntarily.
The reason for his emotional change at this moment is that he is now going to do an experiment, a bold experiment.
Once he succeeds, he will make a fortune and won't have to worry about wizard-level knowledge for some time.
But if you fail, the Elemental Castle will not easily forgive the thief.
Feeling anxious, Luo Xi called out softly in his heart: "System."
