A strange world

"Don't panic, it's just an accident..."

Annan, who was suddenly surrounded by darkness and unknown, maintained his composure.

"Let's try to restore the mage tower first... Tower spirit, are you still there?"

The empty control floor contained only Annan's echo and the faint sounds from other floors.

Chaos is brewing as the mage tower loses power.

Just as Annan was trying to carry the rhombus crystal back to the base through the dim light of the red ghost, a stream of fire appeared in the night sky. At first it flickered outside Breeze City, then it quickly became clear, dragging a straight trail towards the Mage Tower. Countless residents looked up at it as if it were an illusion, and entered the dark Mage Tower.

But for Annan, who was facing the "meteor" at the control level at the moment, it was another matter. The miraculous holy flame enveloped a vague outline. The blazing flame almost burned the soul and illuminated the entire control layer:

The boy in the mage's robe was holding the rhombus crystal stiffly, and next to him was a sneaky ghost holding only the magic stone.

"It's not what you see..."

After the words fell, Annan was shrouded in white light and lost his mind——

I don't know how much time passed, but Annan's consciousness returned as the white light in his field of vision dimmed, and a cold snort escaped the harsh and rapid buzzing in his mind.

"I saw it in your head. The scum in the ditch..."

This kind of foul language seemed to make Annan see a second Michael.

The flame outline began to restore the mage tower - the raging magic power that suffocated Annan emerged like a stormy wave. It condenses and crystallizes to form a diamond-shaped crystal that resurfaces on the red copper base.

The restored light dispels the darkness that enveloped the mage tower.

"Solve this matter, you can continue to stay in the Mage Tower, otherwise get out."

The grumpy being said to Annan, turned into a shooting star again, and left Breeze City along the trail that had not dissipated.

At first, Annan could still recall the words and outlines, but as if they had faded over countless years, the existence of the outlines quickly became blurred. Only the pale crystal that had lost its energy lay on the ground, silently telling what had happened before.

"Why can't I remember..."

"Legendary characteristics, unrecognizable." The restored tower spirit halo whispered, "Your Excellency Agarwal came here just now and restored the mage tower."

Annan realized why he hadn't seen the legend since coming to Breeze City. Perhaps I had seen it at some point - but was forced to forget it.

"Aren't spells below the eighth level unable to affect crystal stones? Why does the mage tower fail?"

Fortunately, it was just a false alarm - but not for the red ghost who was shivering in the corner holding the magic stone. The emotion exuded by that Agarwal sir almost killed it.

"The control crystal of the Mage Tower has been tampered with. Lord Agarwal asked you to help the Mage Tower find the murderer."

Annan took this opportunity to remember his forgotten words: Deal with the scum, or get out.

"Where am I going to find the murderer?"

"The control layer has advanced recording technology and can find clues."

Clicking footsteps appeared outside the control layer, and a demon doll appeared holding a recording magic stone.

"As a tower spirit, don't you know?" Annan comforted the frightened ghost.

"There are many nobles visiting the operation floor."

A magical image appeared in the sky above the magic stone held by the golem.

Annan looked at the image and regained his peace of mind.

legend……

Annan had improved his concept of legend countless times due to the legendary chapters of the Bard, but he still did not have a clear understanding...just like the description in words was always pale and weak.

The legendary mage seems to have broken away from the category of human beings and become as powerful as a god. .

The legendary mage ignored the "dregs in the ditch" he called them and handed them to himself. Are they insignificant, or do he not care?

Annan asked the tower spirit to only select images with visitors. While watching a group of mage apprentices curiously visit the operation floor, he asked: "Is the magic circuit of the mage tower easily tampered with?"

"Only an epic caster can do it."

After getting the answer, Annan almost said "No need to look anymore" - Augusta Olmedo's vicissitudes of face appeared in front of him uncontrollably.

This will undoubtedly be the best evidence to identify Augusta Olmedo.

"Has Augusta Olmedo been here?"

"No."

"Have you never been to the Mage Tower or the control floor?"

"None of them have been here."

Ta Ling wiped away Annan's expectations.

At this time, a group of noble ladies burst into the magical image. Annan was still thinking about the disaster after the Mage Tower failed: according to the speed at which the legendary mage arrived, the tower owner should be near Breeze City. But if he wasn't there...the mage tower guarding Breeze City would fall into silence.

So when did this tampering begin? Who did it?

Rat man? Or the devil north of the snowy mountains?

In the magical image, ladies surround the diamond-shaped crystal. Women are like dragons, shiny things always attract their attention.

Annan's eyes regained some focus because he saw a familiar figure among the ladies surrounding the rhombus crystal.

The beautiful countess and the other noble ladies rubbed the rhombus crystal indiscriminately, and then moved around the base to the back. When no one was paying attention, she suddenly and strangely placed her entire palm on the crystal.

The tower spirit exuded a hazy halo: "It seems you have found the murderer."

Annan looked at the magic image with complexity. The countess returned to the ladies and continued to talk and laugh elegantly.

"……when did it happen?"

"About two months ago."

It was very close to the time of Levi's attack. Coincidentally, Earl Morgan also died during that time.

Skaven disguised as humans... Skaven who long for the blood of warlocks...

"What are you going to do with the Mage Tower?"

"Your Excellency Agarwal asked you to resolve this matter, and the Mage Tower will not interfere." The tower spirit's answer was to do nothing.

Annan faces three choices at this moment:

Find the countess and threaten her. You don't want this evidence to appear in the scavenger headquarters, right?

Capture the countess.

Tell the scavenger about this.

"Would the Mage Tower mind if I informed the Scavenger?"

"Your Excellency Agarwal asked you to resolve this matter. Mage Tower will not interfere."

Annan made his choice. He returned to the second floor, stood in front of the guardrail, and announced to the mages in the hall: "The loss of control just now occurred on the control floor. Fortunately, Mr. Agarwal came to solve the crisis, but I have to tell you some bad news... …”

"The Skaven hiding in Breeze City planned all of this."

The echoing shouts made the mages gradually quiet down, looking at the King of the North emerging on the second floor.

"I have to give the evidence to the scavengers, but they also saw the scene when the mage tower went out of control. The Skaven will not allow this news to be sent to the scavenger headquarters."

"Young and wise mages, I need your help, but I don't know if you have courage and integrity surging in your bodies?"
