Chapter 829 (1/2)
It took Cecilia only a short time to find a hidden mechanism.
The location of this mechanism is very ingenious. It is next to a wall bookshelf in the hall on the first floor. Only those who carefully search and have a certain understanding of magic can find it. It is obviously impossible for barbarians like the Blackwater tribe to find here, so Sean and others can naturally draw a conclusion that the underground area of the mage tower, I'm afraid those tribes have never explored.
When Cecilia activated the mechanism, a slight sound of mechanism click was sent out in the middle of the hall.
Then, the stone slab on the ground began to sag downward, exposing the stone ladder hidden under the ground. Countless fluorescence lights up one by one from the dark underground. The light is not strong and dazzling, but it is very bright. It almost reflects the whole underground at a glance. This scene makes Sean feel a little like the underground world he once saw in the game.
”It's a bit like the city of shadows.” Harding uttered a faint sigh, apparently surprised by the scenery in front of him.
Shadow city is one of the three recognized neutral cities in the underground world. It does not belong to any ethnic group or force. These three neutral cities have their own rules and positions. No matter how powerful and powerful big people are, they must abide by the rules set by their houses in these three neutral cities. Of course, this is not absolute. After all, the underground world is a world that advocates the strong. Therefore, if the strength is strong enough to go against the sky, you can walk horizontally in these three neutral cities.
However, such people are often called ”rule breakers”. They and ”rule makers” are like the relationship between darkness and light. The vast majority of rule makers will not like such saboteurs, and even want to eliminate them all.
”That's how the underground world feels.” Cecilia, as a native and well-off person, has never been to the underground world - in fact, today's surface residents can't have the opportunity to go to the underground world even if they go back more than a dozen generations.
”Almost.” Harding said, ”but it's still different from the real underground world Only big cities can have such beautiful fluorescence. Generally, there will be no such beautiful fluorescence in small places or in the wild But I can't tell the details. Anyway, I feel some differences, but the differences are not big. ”
”Mainly because there are no piled up buildings here.” Sean glanced. ”Most of the cities in the underground world have a very strong ethnic style, while big cities like the shadow city look more like a rough mixture. In short, the things in the underground world look more simple and rough, pay more attention to practicality, and will not be as clean and tidy as here.”
Harding also glanced, but he neither refuted nor agreed. Perhaps, HARTING thinks Sean's words are an insult to the underground world, and as a resident of the underground world, HARTING will naturally feel a little uncomfortable, but even if he wants to refute, he doesn't know where to refute. Obviously, Harding is not very good at drunk guns. He is better at fighting.
Other people want to laugh but dare not. After all, if they laugh, it's really a very impolite behavior.
Everyone, start walking down the stone ladder.
The road was not long. Soon everyone reached the underground area of the mage tower.
This area looks very large, almost equivalent to the size of the whole island, but there is a more detailed regional division here, including the important facility of MAGE tower - magic array center.
Generally speaking, the mage tower is the most important residence for a mage. In addition to relevant defense measures, there are also some mechanism traps to prevent some guys who are not popular with mages from visiting. Such traps and defensive measures naturally consume a lot of magic. Therefore, there is a control system such as the magic array center. Basically, all magicians inherited from the ash age have the habit of establishing the magic array center in their own mage tower.
In order to maintain the magic consumption of the whole mage tower, the daily magic cost of the magic array center is naturally huge, so magicians generally have two choices. The first is to recruit a group of apprentices. The most basic work every day is to inject a certain amount of magic power into the magic array; The other is to establish a magic pool, which automatically fills the magic array.
Usually, no legendary mage will be willing to invest a lot of energy in building his own half plane, because this is actually a waste of time. However, the master of the half plane entered by Sean and others is obviously not an ordinary legendary mage, so he not only spent a lot of time building his own half plane, but also built a mage tower here, which is no different from all mage towers in the material world, and the supply mode of the magic array is still the magic pool.
