The sphere at the top of the black tower suddenly rotated, shocking everyone on the top of the tower. They gathered under the sphere, looked up at the disc-shaped sphere, and could not speak for a long time.

"What did you do? How did it become like this?" After a while, everyone who woke up from the surprise asked Beren who was standing on the ladder.

Belen, on the other hand, looked at the scrub cloth in his hand with a confused and surprised look, then looked up at the place he had wiped before, and said in confusion: "I didn't do anything? I just wanted to wipe it clean.

That’s all.”

Just as he was speaking, three air pillars formed by black clouds rushed out from the tops of the three chief wizard towers in Silver Moon City, and soon flew to the airship docking platform outside the top of the black tower. All the black clouds gathered together.

They transformed into three wizards wearing black robes and hoods.

Seeing these three wizards standing on the platform, the porters and engineers in the top room all stopped their discussions and lowered their heads respectfully. Beren, who was standing on the ladder, also jumped down and lowered his head.

He stood next to his companion.

Although Silvermoon City is managed by the Municipal Council, everyone knows that the Municipal Council is just a management tool. The real controllers of Silvermoon City are the ten chief wizards of the Wizards Association. In name, these ten chief wizards

Their status is equal and there is no distinction between high and low, but in fact everyone knows that among the ten chief wizards, the three black-robed wizards are the strongest and have the highest status.

Except for some major celebrations, the three black-robed wizards rarely appear in front of people, and even if they do, they have never appeared at the same time. Now that the three black-robed wizards appeared at the top of the black tower at the same time with such great fanfare, the room was filled with confusion.

The engineers and porters all felt that something big might happen.

After the three black-robed wizards appeared, they paid no attention to the other people in the room. Instead, they walked directly under the sphere and looked up at the disc-shaped sphere.

"There is still some magic left on it. The magic just now should have come from here." A woman's voice came from under the hood of a black-robed wizard embroidered with blood-colored patterns. Then she took off the hood, revealing a cold and charming face.

face and bald head covered with various patterns.

"Do you still remember what this thing is called?" Another black-robed wizard's clothes were embroidered with purple patterns, and he was also the burliest. A large number of scars could be seen from half of his face exposed under the hood.

The last black-robed wizard had white patterns embroidered on his body and had the oldest voice. His hood was deliberately pulled down to cover his entire face, and only a beard that reached his waist could be seen hanging down. He said in a deep voice.

Said: "I remember this thing is called a boundary ring."

"But, how come I remember that this thing seemed to be a sphere before?" The blood-striped black-robed wizard pondered for a moment, and then asked: "Do you know what the use of this thing is?"

The other two black-robed wizards looked at each other and didn't know the answer. Then the white-striped black-robed wizard coughed twice and said: "There were so many books and inheritances lost in the turmoil back then. I'm afraid we need to learn about the function of this thing from those

I’ll look for it in the remaining ancient books, but I may not be able to find it.”

"How did it become the shape it is now?" the blood-striped black-robed wizard asked again.

As he said that, the three black-robed wizards looked at the engineers and porters standing beside them with their heads bowed.

The person in charge of the five engineers quickly stood up and carefully explained the situation just now.

"Is it just erasing the rust?" Hearing this, the purple-striped black-robed wizard murmured in confusion, and then saw his body floating up from the ground to the side of the disk. Then he lifted his hand from

He lifted up his robe and took off his leather gloves, revealing his palms with metallic skin, and then lightly touched the disc. Where he touched, the rust was like a stain that had been wiped away.

disappeared, and the disappearing effect gradually spread. In the blink of an eye, the disc completely took on a new look, revealing its golden surface and those fine patterns.

"Huh?" When they saw the patterns on the surface of the ring-shaped bearings on the disk, the three black-robed wizards exclaimed in unison, and their eyes fell on those patterns.

"It seems that there are one hundred and six levels of magic patterns?" The white-striped black-robed wizard quickly calculated the number of Turing radicals in the outermost ring, and added: "This is still on the surface of the outermost ring axis.

The number of magic patterns, according to my observation, the number of magic patterns on each layer of the annular shaft inside is greater than that on the outer layer, which means that the number of magic patterns on the deepest core bearing may be more than a thousand levels."

"What? So many?" The words of the white-marked black-robed wizard made the other two black-robed wizards extremely surprised. Although they felt that there were a lot of magic patterns on the circular axes on the disk, they never expected that there would be so many more.

.

The purple-striped black-robed wizard asked in a deep voice: "How many magic marks are there in the rare object with the largest number of magic marks in our hands?"

The white-striped black-robed wizard quickly gave the answer: "The dream catcher placed in the fog area to guard the castle, seventy-sixth level magic mark."

Hearing this, the three of them all took a deep breath.

The blood-striped black-robed wizard asked with a puzzled look on his face: "Why haven't we discovered the mystery of this thing before?"

"Maybe it's because I see it often, so..." The explanation given by the purple-striped black-robed wizard was a bit stiff, and he himself may have felt that such an explanation was unreliable, so he stopped before he finished speaking.

The three black-robed wizards did not continue to stand here to discuss, but directly ordered that this place be classified as a restricted area. All supplies shipped outside the lake area were transferred to other airship stations for responsibility, and the three of them sent some wizards to stay here to guard it.

After that, they went into the warehouse that had been dusty for many years and searched for information that might be related to this world ring from those old objects and ancient books.

The actions of the three black-robed wizards naturally attracted the attention of the other chief wizards. They came to the top of the black tower and looked at the disk, but they did not show much interest in it. They only sent a few formally.

Several subordinate wizards were stationed in the room at the top of the tower, and they continued to quarrel over the successor of the tenth chief wizard.

The other chief wizards who have long been secular are more concerned about the power in their hands, the resources they have obtained, and the territory they control. They are no longer interested in the so-called wizards' knowledge. Because there are three black-robed chief wizards, no matter how hard they work

, it is impossible to have any improvement in status and power, not to mention that their power comes from their blood. Even if they do not delve into various witchcraft, their power will increase as they grow older, so there is no need to pay too much attention to it.

Focus on these useless things.

Leo, who was far away in the forest, didn't know that the animal skin in his hand had caused the world's most core magical artifact to react. He also didn't know that because of this reaction, the black-robed wizard who controlled Silver Moon City had begun to pay attention to some early...

Things that had been forgotten, he was now focused on finding suitable clothes at the second supply point.

Compared to the first supply point, the second supply point Leo found was not very far from the hut. At his walking speed, it only took him less than ten minutes to get there, and he only encountered two people in the process.

An attack by a dream spirit.

This supply point is not a wooden house, but a converted cave. The inside of the cave is very dry, but there is no such thing as a fireplace. Like the cabin, there are some nets hung at the entrance to block the torso dream spirits.

Wizard's Curiosities.

There were no weapons stored in this cave supply point, but there was a lot of silver-white gravel that had caused reactions to animal skins before, and there were also clothes of various sizes. Leo quickly found some suitable ones for him to wear.

of clothing.

Although the clothes were found, Leo did not dress them randomly. Having done more than one infiltration mission, he knew that clothes were worn differently in every place. If he did not wear them correctly, he would be more conspicuous.

Eye-catching.

Fortunately, Valentin, whom he had met before, was used as a reference. He quickly analyzed some of the rules for how people here wear clothes. He put on a lined vest and a hunter's half-coat. In order to avoid making mistakes, he quickly

The trousers and boots have also been replaced by the linen trousers and the very old-fashioned boots.

Leo did not throw away the clothes he changed, but carefully folded them and put them into his backpack. After all, these clothes were specially made for him by Rembrandt. The value and function of the clothes themselves are not comparable to ordinary clothes.

of.

After changing his clothes, Leo checked to see if there was anything missing.

"By the way, there are weapons!" Leo soon found a loophole that he had just overlooked. He took off the king and queen, along with the holsters and bullet belts, put them into his backpack, and then took them out from before.

I have a set of weapons and equipment that I took away from that hut.

From Valentin's previous reaction, it is not difficult to see that only the night watchmen can use firearms, and other ordinary people can only use blade crossbows and other cold weapons.

After hanging the crossbow and a bag of silver-white gravel on his waist, Leo checked the condition of his clothes again and found no more holes. He picked up a flange hat that was still popular decades ago on the hat rack.

Putting the three-cornered hat on his head, he walked out of the supply point and walked towards the nearest lake town.

When looking at the map, Leo felt something strange in his heart, because according to common sense, a city's public cemetery should be built not far from the city, or even within the city.

But it's different here. The cemetery guarded by Valentin is thirty or forty kilometers away from the nearest Hushang Town, and it's still deep in the forest. If ordinary people walk on foot, it may take more than one or two days to reach it. In addition,

The danger in the forest may last longer, so this seemingly unreasonable urban layout must contain mysteries that he has not discovered yet.

However, when Leo discovered several abandoned cemeteries on the way to the nearest town on the lake, he had a vague suspicion that these cemeteries might have something to do with the foggy area mentioned by Valentin.

These cemeteries are not so much for burying the dead as for using the bodies of the dead to perform certain rituals to generate some kind of power to fight against the fog.

In these abandoned cemeteries, Leo could not find any corpses under each grave, but from some traces it could be seen that a large number of corpses had been buried here, and there were many dreams and dreams seen in the forests around the cemetery.

Traces of the battle between spirits.

Perhaps because they have entered the actual control area of ​​Crescent Moon Lake, the number of dream spirits encountered by Leo on the road has become less and less. Groups of dream spirits such as strange birds and Bai Ying have almost disappeared.

, most of them are individual dream spirits.

However, the fact that these dream spirits can live alone in the forest near Crescent Moon Lake without being eliminated by the Night Watch or the Wizards Association is enough to prove how powerful they are.

When approaching the habitat of these dream spirits, Leo could feel from a long distance that the terror of several of them was definitely no more terrifying than the Wilson Matthew he saw underground in Cage City, the man who had lived for three hundred years.

How much weaker is a young wizard?

For this reason, he didn't even dare to let go of his mental network, because when his mental network sensed the other party, the other party would definitely be able to sense him, so he only dared to judge the dream spirit through spiritual vision or spiritual perception.

Habitat range to avoid these places.

After walking in the forest for more than six hours, Leo finally saw the outer wall of Lake Town.

This outer wall is a very majestic wall for ordinary people. The wall is nearly thirty meters high. Both ends extend into the lake, forming a semicircle and surrounding the entire town on the lake. The wall has no entrances and exits.

But there are some large steam elevators on the wall that can be used by people.

Just like the tombkeeper huts and supply points equipped with the kind of net-like wizarding artifacts, this wall is also equipped with a large number of similar wizarding artifacts, and these wizarding artifacts are no longer woven with those rough plant vines.

It is made of some high-tech metal wires, and its durability and effect far exceed those of other plant vine nets.

Because of the existence of these magical objects that repel dream spirits, the entire wall forms a huge repulsive force field. The impact of this force field is not only in the area near the wall, but can even be felt in places several miles away from the wall.

to this strong repulsive force.

It is precisely because of this strong repulsive force of dream spirits that the land around the wall becomes available safe land.

All the trees on these lands were cut down, their roots dug out, and the land was reclaimed and turned into farmland. The food crops grown in the farmland were not the common cereals and other foods in the world of Velen, but a kind of food that looked like

Cotton, a plant that tastes very similar to bread.

However, Leo found that after eating this kind of food, his Chaos Stomach did not absorb the food directly, but allowed him to digest it slowly like a normal person.

Perhaps it was because the people here had too much trust in the power of this high wall, so they did not arrange any manpower to patrol or guard the wall. As a result, Leo easily climbed to the wall without alerting anyone.
