Chapter 180 017: Guide Party
Wearing a hood, Luo Xi carefully crossed the battlefield. At this moment, he had activated the invisibility of his cloak, completely hiding his figure and even his mental force field.
Most of the people on the ground battlefield are apprentices, and their limited perception ability is not enough to detect his presence.
What he needed to worry about was the various magic spells that might fly over at any time on the chaotic battlefield. There were all kinds of fireballs and ice arrows flying around on the battlefield with hundreds of apprentices from both sides. He couldn't take a few steps before some kind of energy beam would hit him head-on.
Fortunately, Luo Xi's agility coefficient is far beyond that of ordinary people, and the super perception ability brought by the extremely high degree of soul training allows him to lock the trajectory of these spells in advance before the magic hits him.
Avoiding one magic spell after another, Luo Xi quickly passed through the battlefield outside and entered the Shadow Tower.
Currently, the battlefield is mainly concentrated outside the tower. Although there are some spiritual battles inside the tower, the attacks are not too fierce.
'Where should we go first?'
Luo Xi was a little confused when looking at the maze-like corridors and courtyards in front of him.
The Shadow Tower was not the small wizard tower he occupied. It was comparable to a large wizard organization like the Elemental Castle. The internal space was extremely large. As a stranger, he had no idea which way to go.
Just when he was in a dilemma, suddenly, he heard a voice from the side. It was a few apprentices hiding in the corner, seemingly slacking off. "Alice, don't go out. We'll stay here."
"But, the mentor and the others are fighting outside. If we don't join in, what if the mentor loses?"
"If we lose, we lose. Those white wizards can't possibly kill us all, right? I've asked around before, and they won't do that."
"Yeah, I've heard that too. These white wizards only target the mentors and won't attack us."
"If you can't fight, just change your mentor. You can be an apprentice anywhere. If you are with the White Wizard, you don't have to worry about becoming the mentor's test subject at any time."
These apprentices hid in a corner behind the gate, discussing how to surrender to the enemy and lead the way.
It seems that no matter which plane you are in, there are always such guides on the battlefield.
'This is really like a sleepy head meeting a pillow.'
Luo Xi, who was worried about getting lost, walked quietly among the apprentices and instantly deployed a static force field.
The powerful force field energy was like an invisible giant hand that instantly grasped the apprentices in its hand. Several apprentices had no idea what was happening and suddenly they felt unable to move.
"Ah, what...what's going on? I...I can't move."
"Me, me too"
Roshi took off his hood and revealed his figure.
When the apprentices saw this person suddenly appear beside them, they were immediately shocked.
"Who are you!"
"Yes, did you do it? You controlled us? What do you want to do?"
Isn't it obvious that Luo Xi thinks these apprentices are funny?
He sneered and said, "Do wizards who come in here at this time need to introduce themselves?"
"You are from the White Witch Territory!"
A female apprentice said with tears in her eyes: "No, please don't kill us, Master Wizard. We are just apprentices here. We do everything our mentor asks us to do."
Several other apprentices also begged in panic. It was obvious that they were scared out of their wits in the face of death.
Very good, this is the state we want.
Luo Xi touched his chin and said coldly, "It all depends on your performance."
After a pause, he got straight to the point and said, "I need an apprentice to lead the way for me. If you can lead me to my destination accurately, I will consider forgiving you."
"Where are you going, sir? I am willing to lead the way for you!"
"My lord, please let me lead the way. No one here is more familiar with the environment than me. I have been in the tower for more than ten years!"
"You're talking nonsense. You just came here three years ago. Sir, I am the one who knows this place best."
Several apprentices almost got into a fight over the right to lead the way.
"alright!"
Luo Xi impatiently stopped them, and then pointed at the most honest-looking female apprentice among them: "You, lead the way for me."
After saying that, he lightly snapped his fingers and threw a sleepy person over. The other apprentices around him suddenly felt a strong mental force hitting their brains, and they fainted instantly.
The female apprentice was even more frightened now.
Luo Xi said: "Don't be nervous, they just fainted. As long as you lead the way for me, I will let you go later."
The female apprentice quickly said, "Yes, sir."
"What's your name?" Roshi asked.
The female apprentice said, "Alice, sir, Alice Yeager."
Luo Xi nodded, and then stated his first destination: "Okay Alice, is there a library here?"
Alice nodded and answered in detail, "Yes, sir, there are two public libraries here, one is for wizards only, and the other is for us apprentices."
Luo Xi said: "Just take me to the apprentice's library first."
"yes."
Alice immediately took Luo Xi to the depths of the corridor. In a room at the end, there was a round stone slab with dense runes engraved on it and several space gems inlaid. It was obviously a space jump stone slab.
Standing on the jump stone slab, Alice took out her badge, held it in her hand and chanted a short spell. A beam of light shot up from under her feet, and in a flash, Luo Xi found herself in another room.
There was a corridor outside. Alice pointed to a hall on the left side of the corridor and said, "That's the library for our apprentices, sir."
She hesitated for a moment, then continued, "But the librarian, Mr. Baroque, is guarding here. If you go in like this, he won't allow you to go in."
Luo Xi asked: "Baroque? What is his strength?"
Alice explained, "It is an alchemical creation of Wizard Nar. It is a tin man, and its strength is equivalent to that of a senior apprentice."
Luo Xi nodded: "Okay, I understand."
There is no need to specifically mention an alchemical creation at the apprentice level.
Luo Xi walked forward first, and as expected, when he was about to enter the library gate, a tall tin man blocked his way.
The Tin Man shouted, "This is the Apprentice Library of the Shadow Tower, stranger, state your purpose, otherwise there will be consequences..."
The Tin Man's voice stopped abruptly before he finished speaking.
But Luo Xi just raised his hand and pulled the Tin Man up into the air. He then reached inside with his right hand and there were a few crackling sounds. The Tin Man was like a squeezed can, twisted and deformed, and soon became a lump of iron.
