Chapter 183 (1/2)
Although the name has the title of tower, it is actually closer to an ancient castle, adjacent to the west of eboden, simple and solemn.
The gate of the ancient castle is close to the street. There are almost no redundant colors in the whole castle. There are gray walls and dark black spires. There are even no murals and carvings. It is simple like a Holy Cross Church. On both sides of the paved road extending outside the gate, there are only a few pure white columns for decoration.
In the center of the castle stands the most eye-catching tower, which is stacked for nearly 60 meters. The nine awned stars are carved on the four sides of the spire, which is the origin of its name and appellation.
Standing in front of it, Loren looked at the high tower, the ancient castle and paved road made of rocks and bricks - this is the birthplace of wizards, the base camp of the whole wizard world, the nine pointed star wizard tower.
The wizards who were once expelled to eboden established the first wizard college here, and gradually developed into today's scale on this basis. Now the nine pointed star wizard tower is not only the authority of the wizard world, but also the only wizard organization recognized by the Empire.
”Are you really going to go in with me?” the black haired wizard glanced at the ”black feather Eagle” on his shoulder, and his tone was somewhat incredible: ”you can't stand vimpal. This is the headquarters of wizards!”
”For the sake of my dear friend, Asriel is fearless!” Asriel's ”righteous” voice echoed in Loren's mind: ”what's more, please don't think of me as an ordinary vampire?”
Indeed... Ordinary vampires are not as difficult as him.
Shrugging his shoulders, Loren entered the gate of the castle. Behind the gate was a spacious hall. The corridor columns on both sides continued to extend forward until the end in front of a circular patio. There was a long stone table filled with parchment books.
The sound of clear footsteps echoed in the hall. Behind the stone table was a young wizard in gray robe, with a smile on his lazy face. He didn't cheer up until he saw Loren approaching.
”Welcome to the nine pointed star wizard tower. What can I do for you?” the other party's tone was very polite: ”you look like you are a stranger. Are you a local wizard?”
”No, I'm from the Principality of lottel.” Lauren's face wore a formulaic smile and lowered his head slightly: ”I hope to be certified by the nine pointed star wizard tower and become a member here.”
”OK, no problem!” the young wizard replied briskly. When he was just about to pick up a quill pen, he suddenly frowned: ”wait, you say you are... The wizard of the Principality of lottel?”
”What's the problem?”
”Of course there's a problem. We've never heard of lottel or the wizard College - it's said that the church there is very strict, and even if you expose your identity, you may be arrested by them!”
The young wizard looked surprised: ”aren't you the kind of wizard family inherited in private? Or are you just a loterian who practices to become a wizard in other places?”
”You're half right.” Loren said faintly, ”the Holy Cross Church in lottel is very strict, but we still have our own wizard college, which has been open for more than 30 years.”
”It's only been more than 30 years...” the grey wizard chuckled, but he quickly shut his mouth after seeing Lauren's expression: ”well, but the nine pointed star wizard tower has no record of your college, so we may need to verify your identity first to prove that you are indeed a wizard.”
”Proof of identity?” the black haired wizard frowned. ”How do you prove it?”
”It's no trouble, as long as you show your level of specialized subjects. You can make an appointment first, and we will prepare a test for you.” the young wizard smiled and took the initiative to stretch out his right hand: ”anyway, welcome to become a member of the nine pointed star wizard tower. I'm Peter FASA, who is responsible for introducing the wizard tower to the new wizards. They call me a watchdog!”
”Watchdog?” raised his eyebrows, and Lauren looked carefully at the guy in front of him - golden curly, some messy hair, a childish face, and round eyes really like a puppy.
”Yes, it's quite vivid, isn't it?” Peter shrugged his shoulders carelessly and smiled. ”I'll take you to the test place then, and you'll know.”
