This was the seventeenth time Orlando passed by this mage tower.
He silently recorded the number of times every time, because every time he thought about whether to enter, but he often chose to retreat when he was about to knock on the door. He actually didn't know what the 'Mage Tower' meant, but it was just what people called it.
It was just this tower, so he also learned to call it that.
Although Orlando didn't know what a mage tower meant, he knew what a tower and a mage meant. Especially the latter. In the mouths of those people, "mage" had almost become synonymous with omnipotence. This made him very happy.
It's the desire... What if this mage is willing to help him?
He kicked the stones on the road unhappily and began to consider whether he should really go over and knock on the beautiful-looking door this time. But he was also very afraid - what if the tower owner was a mage with a bad temper?
What should I do? What if he wants to turn me into a table or a stone? Besides, I have no way to give him any reward.
So he began to walk around on both sides of the tower at a distance, and from time to time he would raise his head to glance at the tower, for fear that someone would come out from inside.
Just when he was hesitating, the door opened by itself, and a huge white wolf walked out. Orlando gasped, he had never seen such a huge wolf before!
It's literally like a wall.....
The wolf seemed to know his location and walked straight towards him along the road. Orlando suddenly began to tremble, and his mother's voice began to echo in his mind: wolves eat people, wolves eat people.
, wolves eat people...
He closed his eyes, squatted down and prayed. He hoped that the wolf would not eat him badly, so that his mother could at least recognize him.
However, after he closed his eyes for more than ten minutes, the expected pain did not come. Orlando secretly opened his eyes through a crack and found the huge white wolf lying down not far from him.
His face was full of fun.
Orlando himself felt strange - how could I see a human expression on a wolf?
But that was the fact. Seeing him open his eyes, the white wolf opened its mouth and yawned. Its hair shone in the sun. Then it stood up, turned around, and turned towards Orlando.
nodded.
"You, you want me to follow you?"
"Ugh." The huge white wolf nodded.
With hesitation, Orlando entered the mage tower with it.
The first thing he saw was darkness. But Orlando didn't panic much. He could feel the huge body of the white wolf around him. After a while, a little blue starlight lit up in the darkness, the crystal clear blue
The erotic light just appeared and instantly stole his attention.
With an obsession that he didn't even notice, Orlando opened his mouth wide, and his eyes followed the starlight. It moved up and down, left and right. After a while, the starlight exploded -
—The room suddenly lit up with light.
The firewood in the fireplace crackled, emitting a warm orange light. It illuminated the area in front of it. An antique armchair was swinging slightly on the carpet, and a small round table was placed in the center of the carpet.
Four or five books were piled up, as well as a bouquet of white flowers that looked like they had just been picked not long ago and were still covered in dew.
In the corner of the room, there were three large bookcases, divided into four floors, and each floor was filled with books. Orlando's eyes gradually moved upward, and the scene on the ceiling made him unable to take his eyes away for a long time.
In the area that should be the ceiling, there is a starry sky.
The darkness serves as the curtain, and the stars serve as embellishments on it, as beautiful as a painting. Even the stars are slowly rotating and twinkling, as if they are telling his story to him. Orlando cannot describe himself.
He just wanted to see this scene more and for a longer time.
But the white wolf didn't share his thoughts. Feng swept the young man's back with his tail and motioned for him to follow him. They walked up the stairs, and the stairs suddenly became very large, even big enough to accommodate Xiaofeng's huge body.
.They walked all the way to the top of the tower, and the wind swept open a wooden door with its tail, and then pushed Orlando in with his head.
The wooden door closed behind him with a muffled sound. Orlando swallowed. He seemed to be standing in a void, boundless, with only pure darkness condensed here. Then, he heard a man say: "Oh,
Sorry, I didn't realize you were here."
Then, the world lights up.
Orlando was surprised to find that he was next to a lake. Standing in front of him was a man in black robe with his back to him. Orlando couldn't see his face, only knowing that he had black hair shawl and was picking up things from the ground.
Pick up stones and throw them one by one into the lake.
"Uh, sir...?" Orlando said hesitantly.
The man turned his head slightly, revealing half of his handsome profile: "Come here, kid, you've been hanging around my door for too long this month."
"I'm sorry, sir."
"Why apologize?"
"Because I've been hanging around in front of your house for too long. It's very rude, but I actually..." Orlando slowly walked to him. Everything that happened in the past ten minutes made him feel that he
As if he was in a dream. He said slowly: "I actually want to ask you for something."
"Wait a minute, kid." The man glanced at him, smiled, and then threw the stone in his hand again. The black, sparkling stone spun and flew out of his hand, hitting the surface of the lake.
It took more than twenty strokes before falling into the water.
"Your skills in drawing water are really good."
"This is not a waste of time, kid." The man smiled mysteriously and turned around. Only then did Orlando realize that he was surprisingly tall.
He stretched out his hand and shook hands with Orlando gently. His skin was cold, as if he were not human. Then, he patted the back of Orlando's head and said, "Come on, I'll take you to a place suitable for conversation."
place."
They moved away from the lake all the way. Behind them, the lake gradually changed and turned into a pure and small planet, which was covered with black stones that the man had just thrown. It just rotated little by little, lifted into the sky, and finally
Disappear.
The man took him back to the first floor. He snapped his fingers like a magic trick, and another chair appeared out of nowhere. Orlando was embarrassed, but wanted to be as decent as possible. He sat down uneasily.
, he even took the cup of tea that the man handed him with great reluctance.
"There's no need to be so nervous. Let's start by introducing yourself." The man smiled, leaned back, lay on the chair, and said comfortably and leisurely: "My name is He Shenyan, and I am a mage. What about you?
child?"
"Orlando, sir, my name is Orlando."
"Okay, Orlando. I remember. So, what do you want from me?"
He Shenyan looked at him with an encouraging smile, as if he was not in a hurry to get an answer. Orlando hesitated for a long time, and then slowly said: "My mother...she is sick. She has been sick for a long time.
My father has been working outside and is very tired every day. He can only come home once every two months, and every time he comes back he brings a lot of money."
Gu Ying
"Then, he would ask me to take the money to buy medicine for my mother, but no matter how much medicine she took, she would not get better...Yesterday, my father came back again. I heard him secretly talking in the middle of the night.
Crying, he's not in particularly good health."
"So, you came to find me?"
He Shenyan's words made Orlando blush. Only then did he realize how unreliable and disgusting it was to place his hopes on a stranger - why should others have to help you?
He stood up suddenly, not forgetting to put the teacup in his hand on the table to prevent the tea inside from spilling. He looked very ashamed: "I, I'm sorry, sir -"
"——Why are you sorry?" He Shenyan asked, and then pointed to the chair: "Sit down first, and let's talk slowly."
"No sir, I..."
He wanted to refuse, but looking at He Shenyan's serious eyes, Orlando couldn't say a word. He had to sit down uneasily.
"There's no need to be sorry, Orlando. When you can't solve something on your own, it's normal to ask others for help. Listen, kid, I'm not a hard-hearted person, so I'm going to help you."
He stretched out his right hand, and a small sapphire appeared on his palm. He Shenyan casually threw the sapphire into Orlando's arms. Regardless of the other person's fuss, he smiled and said, "But
It’s not that I don’t have any requests, child. I have a question to ask you.”
"As long as I know!" Orlando nodded hastily. Although he didn't know what this sapphire could do for his mother, what he had seen and heard so far made him believe in this mysterious mage.
"Who are those people?"
The expression on Orlando's face paused for a moment, and then his expression became more and more surprised and frightened. He stammered: "You, how do you know?"
This time, He Shenyan stopped laughing. He tapped his temple with his finger and said calmly: "I am a mage, kid. Answer the question."
Orlando left the mage tower twenty minutes later. He ran very fast. It was hard to say whether he wanted to go home quickly to see his mother or because he was afraid of the mysterious mage in the tower.
He Shenyan was still sitting on the chair. He looked thoughtfully at the starry ceiling, stretched out his hand and grabbed the tail of Feng who wanted to sneak past him and run outside to play.
"Don't do this, Feng, don't even think about running outside to play again." Facing her pitiful eyes, He Shenyan laughed out loud.
"Speaking of which..." He touched his chin and sighed: "People's words are really scary, aren't they? I haven't done anything, but in their words, I am almost a grown-up.
It’s amazing. It’s so fun.”
The wind whined twice.
"Shouldn't I scare him? No, I want him to be wary of strangers. Besides, what kind of scare is this?"
"woo woo woo woo!"
"...Where did you learn this word? To lie to children? I think you want to be beaten!"
He Shenyan was furious, jumped up from the chair, grabbed her tail and carried her upstairs. No matter how hard Feng struggled, she couldn't break free from Bai Jiu's hand.
, the size difference between the two was obviously several times different, but she could do nothing except let out a miserable howl of recognition.
----------------------------------------
"General, he is seriously injured, but we don't seem to be able to use the scarlet secret method to restore his injuries."
A member of the Scarlet Secret Society stood in front of Thane. He was wearing a red robe the color of blood and a brass mask on his face. The existence of the Scarlet Secret Society is not a secret in the empire. They are similar to military doctors.
But they all master blood magic and can quickly recover from injuries, so they have a high status in the army.
They themselves have no idea about fighting for power, they just focus on the blood itself. Although many people in the empire have criticized their treatment methods, for now, the Scarlet Secret Society is still loyal.
"oh?"
The tone of the member of the Scarlet Secret Society sounded very confused: "The blood magic will be absorbed by his body as soon as it comes into contact with him. We can't control his blood or make the wound heal on its own...
.It’s as if the power of magic has no effect on him.”
interesting.
Thane tapped his steel chin casually. The man's description reminded him of Demacia's Forbidden Stone. After their warriors put on armor made of Forbidden Stone, they were like natural enemies to mages.
The existence of them. Just being close can make it difficult for them to breathe and prevent them from casting spells.
But...he didn't believe that one person could possess the power of the Forbidden Demon Stone. The information about the group of demon hunters had been put on his desk, and he knew that only mages would be searched.
The demons were captured. The war had ended two days ago. Demacia had been removed from the map of Noxus, and it needed a new name as a new city-state of Noxus.
"Stay back first, and give orders to keep the doctors at bay to hang on to his life. I will transfer another batch of medicinal materials from China to keep him alive, do you understand?"
Thain said calmly, if what he thought was true, then this man might become a sharp sword for them when facing the mage.
Speaking of the mage...another person appeared in his mind, and he didn't even notice when the people from the Scarlet Secret Society left.
Silence returned to the camp again, and Thain was thinking calmly. This was extremely rare, but his thinking obviously couldn't last long. As the general of a legion, he had a lot to do.
Darius pushed open the door of the tent and walked in. He was dusty and there were even wet stains on his armor. Obviously, although the Demacians had officially surrendered, the civilian resistance was still operating.
Thain glanced at him, and after confirming that he was not injured, asked: "What's wrong?"
Darius lowered his head respectfully and said in a deep voice: "They are from the Demacia royal family... Jarvan IV and their marshal want to see you."
Thain slowly raised his eyebrows.
