Chapter 315 Mage Tower

As Zhang Jingtian stood at the entrance of the mage tower, he couldn't help but think of the fantasy games he had played before.

They all seem to have similar settings.

The mages in those games also possess various powerful abilities, but they don't have very good tempers.

This made Zhang Jingtian somewhat worried, wondering if the owner of this mage tower might also be like this.

Gazing at the mage tower, Zhang Jingtian seemed to have already imagined that a strange but knowledgeable mage must live inside.

I don't know if the other person can tell me what kind of world this is, or what they belong to.

As Zhang Jingtian stood in front of the mage tower, he suddenly heard a whispering voice from the side.

He turned his head and saw a little dwarf staring at him.

Zhang Jingtian didn't know for the time being whether this little dwarf was a human like himself or a beastman.

"what happened?"

After observing the dwarf for a while and confirming that the dwarf meant him no harm, Zhang Jingtian smiled at him.

The little dwarf immediately jumped up, but even so, its height only reached Zhang Jingtian's knees.

"Be careful. If you don't have the heart of a mage, you'll be burned to death by the archmage inside with a fireball!"

Zhang Jingtian chuckled: "The Heart of a Mage? Hmm, what's that?"

The dwarf pursed his lips, then explained, "A person without the heart of a mage cannot become a great mage!"

Zhang Jingtian could tell that the dwarf was also completely unaware: "Well, but I am indeed a mage, I know magic, so I must have the heart of a mage, right?"

However, the dwarf once again rejected Zhang Jingtian's idea:

"No, you're wrong! That's just the soul of a mage. If you want to become an archmage, you must have the heart of a mage. In fact, with your abilities, if you were willing to join the orcs and become their bodyguard, you could live a good life."

Zhang Jingtian shook his head again: "No need, I feel I have the heart of a mage."

Upon hearing Zhang Jingtian's words, the dwarf immediately rolled his eyes.

He had heard these words countless times.

Many people think so.

"Heh, everyone thinks they have the heart of a mage! But that's nothing but wishful thinking on your part!"

Zhang Jingtian ignored the dwarf and walked directly to the front door, placing his hand on the doorknob.

At the same time, Zhang Jingtian heard a resounding warning from the dwarf.

Zhang Jingtian remained silent.

Because he could clearly sense that the door in front of him was not an ordinary door.

When Zhang Jingtian placed his hand on it, he could clearly feel a force pulling it from behind the door.

Of course, there was even a force, like a raging flood, ready to tear him apart.

Zhang Jingtian could roughly guess that this power was the work of that grand mage, so he could guess that the grand mage was using his ability to determine whether he possessed the heart of a mage.

Thinking of this, Zhang Jingtian couldn't help but laugh.

I certainly can't just sit here and wait to die at this point.

So Zhang Jingtian closed his eyes tightly and began to activate the magic book within his body.

Soon, these spells appeared around Zhang Jingtian. As his level gradually increased, Zhang Jingtian found that he became faster and more effective when using these spells.

Zhang Jingtian looked up and glanced at the man using magic, who was staring at him with a cold and terrifying gaze.

Yes, he was just outside the door a moment ago, but somehow he was suddenly switched to this mage tower.

Then, as expected, Zhang Jingtian met the owner of the mage tower, a man who looked extremely cold and sinister.

"You actually fought back against me?"

The Grand Master stared at Zhang Jingtian with a somewhat distorted look in his eyes, as if he wanted to kill Zhang Jingtian on the spot.

Upon hearing this, Zhang Jingtian almost immediately rolled his eyes.

What kind of talk is this? "You attacked me, and I'm not even allowed to retaliate? What kind of unfair rule is this!"

Upon hearing Zhang Jingtian's words, the Grand Mage curled his lips and laughed: "Of course, that's not what I meant. Actually, I was praising you. I didn't expect you to have the ability to fight back against me."

Zhang Jingtian acted as if he hadn't heard anything. He stood up and looked at the Grand Mage: "So, do I possess the Mage's Heart that you need?"

However, to Zhang Jingtian's complete surprise, what the grandmaster said next completely exceeded his expectations.

At this moment, the Grand Master looked at Zhang Jingtian with an all-seeing gaze. To be honest, when Zhang Jingtian was looked at like that, he really felt as if he could be seen through by this man even through a layer of clothing.

"You don't belong here, how could you possibly possess the heart of a mage?"

Zhang Jingtian stood there stunned, but immediately realized that this great mage must be the person he was looking for.

The fact that he could tell that he was someone who had traveled to this world meant that he also knew why he was here.

"You, how did you know?"

Zhang Jingtian glanced at the Grand Master in front of him and asked softly.

The Grand Master looked at Zhang Jingtian, then said in a very calm tone:

"Because you have no soul. Perhaps in other people's eyes you are still a real human being. But in my eyes, you are just like a wandering ghost, and there's no way to hide that from me."

Zhang Jingtian found it increasingly fantastical, but since the other party could tell that he didn't belong to this world, he knew that this man was definitely extraordinary.

"How can I return to my original world?"

Zhang Jingtian looked at the Grand Master and then asked with great curiosity.

The Grand Master pondered for a moment before speaking:

"Do you want to go back? Why would you want to go back? Isn't it good here? Your strength is enough for you to thrive in this world. I don't understand."

Zhang Jingtian also found it difficult to answer this question immediately.

Because he himself didn't understand why he was so eager to go back.

But he felt that the world had not been destroyed yet, and there were still people waiting for him to save them.

He couldn't just leave like that.

Zhang Jingtian raised his head, his eyes filled with unwavering determination:

"I... I want to go back, for no reason."

The high priest sighed: "Then come here and let me see where your soul truly belongs."
