Sin City

Sin City
Chapter 16



The dark blue main tower was not a magic tower built in the usual way, other than having a height three times that of an ordinary magic tower, this tower also had a diameter twice as large, as it was, which meant that the total area of the dark blue tower was more than ten times that of an ordinary magic tower, and this still did not include the large additional building complex, either, the cost of a large-scale magic tower like this was truly unimaginable. The people who lived directly and indirectly around the more than 10,000 souls were only the size of a small town, the dark blue tower was like a huge monster, he said, which requires ten times the material of a city of the same size every day, with a scale of that size, the dark blue tower has become a symbol of high art in itself.


For material circulation, the deep blue tower surrounded by mountains and the sea has its own harbor, which consists of more than a dozen berths that can park giant ocean ships, and everything was created by magic on the hard coral reefs. Then there were three main highways connecting the dark blue towers from three different directions, and there were at least five or six cities along the prosperous highway as it was a trade route.


The dark blue tower is located at the top of a floating ice bay in the northwestern part of the continent, and is also a sail path of two great rivers. The floating ice bay had a vast area, entirely of its own ocean, a straight line distance from the Starlight Peninsula at the southern end to the Everwinter Mountains on that northern line was over 1,500 kilometers. Every winter, the floating ice bays will enter a period of frost, and only the southernmost coastline can be navigated, so the harbor of the dark blue tower is located at the end of the warm current, is an unfreezing port.


The location of the dark blue tower was very important, the transportation here was quite good, and it guarded one of the three main lines south of the Ice Sea Continent. Gray dwarves and fierce polar monsters can only choose to pass through the sunset canyon in the east, taking the path it needs to rotate further a thousand kilometers, he said, and had to deal directly with Fort Thor of the Holy Alliance Empire. However, after several battles with the dark blue tower were completed, the polar gray dwarves preferred to attack Fort Thor rather than fight Ailen. This woman has been associated with the most fearsome evil god in the legends of many polar grey dwarf tribes. And when Ailen officially broke through level 20 and was promoted to a legendary mage, the dark blue tower completely turned into a peaceful land.


Even the gray dwarves who were famous for ferocity and violence did not dare to destroy the peace here. So slowly, the land around the dark blue tower became a beautiful and prosperous land.


It's the history of the dark blue tower.


This historical narrator was an old mage who was almost a hundred years old, his magic power was not very strong, and level eight was almost the lowest level Richard had ever seen in a dark blue tower. However, the old witch had an outstanding appearance and a rhythmic voice, her knowledge of the history of the blue tower was ranked second only to Ailen. The task is very simple, which is to explain history to the visitors who come to the dark blue tower, for new students like Richard, who is the first student, studying the glorious and resplendent history of the dark blue tower was the first lesson of her witch career, and the importance of this lesson exceeded even the test of magic and talent. The old witch determined which path the magician could go further in this complicated world of magic, whereas the one Richard had only understood after a long time, was the one, that is, determining whether a certain magician disciple can take the path of magic.


Richard's status was different from that of the other magician disciples, he was a disciple recruited by Ailen, so the one-day history lesson for ordinary disciples turned into three days, so, having to tell the history of the dark blue tower for three days was also a test for the old witch.


The history that the old witch told naturally left behind a lot of details, and also deliberately ignored many important things. However, there is always an election in the history of official writing, what can be said and what can only be forgotten, it is all knowledge. Able to gather a fairly complete picture in his mind, Richard had fully maximized his wisdom and talent.


Three days of brainwashing has a significant effect. At least now, when Richard met with Ailen again, he would never consider Ailen to be such an innocent and innocent girl, and there would be no desire to bite anymore. A woman who was even feared by the gray dwarves and the giant ice beasts could not only be described with a terrifying word alone.


Of course, this result was definitely not the original intention of the old witch, but she would not know either. In the eyes of most people, Richard was a quiet child, a silent crotch to the point of not having the slightest additional expression, they had never seen him laugh happily or cry after being reprimanded or bullied, they had never seen him laugh happily, he would also do anything according to orders carefully and as well as possible, not at all like a ten-year-old.


There was no joy in Richard.


After the three-day history class, next was the magic talent test. Richard was taken to a special hall, he was enchanted by the abundance of alchemy equipment, there were over 20 magicians who were busy in the hall, the one who led the test was a great magician. When Richard used his 'original' ability, what he saw was not a magician at all, but a huge burning magic fireball! This was a great magician who was at least at the seventeenth level, who could be used as a court mage in any kingdom, but was instead tasked with testing his talent.


What Richard did not know was that behind the one-sided transparent magic wall, Ailen was leaning comfortably on the sand, paying attention to everything about her testing, she said, although he was reading the records books of the previous generation's legendary mages while taking fruit snacks to fill his mouth, but the legendary mage's method was definitely not something that ordinary people could guess, even without eyes and ears, she also had hundreds of other ways, she could monitor everything around her, so under Ailen's supervision, all the witches did their best.


The dark blue tower only had one master, and it was Ailen, all of them were servants except Ailen, as long as it could make Ailen happy, the treatment on the witches would most likely immediately increase by 50%.


A witch came, put a beaker under Richard's nose, and asked him to breathe in all the water mist floating in it. After a while, Richard's consciousness gradually blurred, but he remained conscious, and could vaguely see what was happening around.


Strange sensations began to come from all over the body. After a while, a faint voice sounded, "High element affinity. The flames, shadows, and sacred aspects were quite powerful. The talent element doesn't exist."


Then there were the various types of devastating pain, namely to test Richard's carrying capacity for elemental destruction, and it was also the most basic component of magic resistance. After a while, the same sound announced the result of good element resistance again.


Furthermore, Richard suddenly felt as if a needle had been pierced into his consciousness, a strong pain completely assaulting his soul! Despite being in a coma, Richard still could not hold back the twitch, but his entire body was tightly bound, so he could not escape at all.


“His spiritual strength is talented, approaching a genius.” After hearing this comment, Richard was finally relieved, apparently he was still in the study, and the results seemed quite good.


After that, there are various detailed tests on physical function. What Richard did not know was that the witches had even tested the talent of his physical virility function, and obtained the results of availability quickly and had excellent potential, he said, this result was even higher than his magic talent. The inspection took a full three hours, and ultimately resulted in a report that was over 20 pages thick.


During this period, Ailen had already read through two notebooks, tested new magic concepts, and ate ten catties of fruit. However, he never left the surveillance position.


In the end, when Richard came to his senses, he was told that the overall evaluation of his magical talent was excellent, without any special inclinations. At the same time, he also had quality martial arts talent, so if he wanted to become a battle professional, he might be able to reach level eleven to twelve in his life.


The good results made Richard very happy. After being relieved, he felt tired from the long test, to the point that his legs were wobbly, so he was lowered to rest. The level of talent seemed to be a certain level? Richard judged with the knowledge he had acquired lately, and that level of genius was not always there, only appearing under certain circumstances.


But Richard did not know that the values on his evaluation sheet were different, there were still five levels higher than the talented level in the evaluation sheet, namely genius, extraordinary, legendary, unique and Ailen.
