Open Your Quest Log Chapter 127

"Wait, what did you say? The treasure won't be opened until a month later?"

Barrett sat at the table made of basswood, and asked the dwarf mage, Theodore Shining Gold, from high to low. Then he raised his head again and smiled kindly at the owner of the house who heard the sound, a middle-aged couple with dark complexion and plain clothes.

The owner of the house smiled back, turned around and continued busy with a dinner party for a few people. The two children around their legs, who looked exactly the same but couldn't tell their gender, grabbed their mother's apron and looked at Barrett with curiosity and fear.

"To be exact, it should be, um..." The gnome mage sat on the chair next to Barrett and thought for a while, "It's a month and seven days, yes, after 37 days, if not today." There was also a piece of wood between him and the chair, so that the little guy could reach the dining table.

At this time, Barrett and the gnome mage were in the house of an ordinary enthusiastic villager in a small village, which was also the place where the gnome mage had been living before. Now, with half a wild deer, Barrett has added himself to the list of temporary borrowers.

Barrett managed to persuade the gnome mage by means of inducement, stimulation, persuasion, and repeated pros and cons, and brought him to find the treasure together, but suddenly found that this adventure could only be carried out after a month.

"I remember that today is April 26th, and the specific time when the treasure opens..." Theodore looked around vigilantly, and lowered his already soft voice again, "Yes, it's June 4th."

"Then why did you come so early?"

"Is it early? In fact, I've been here for three months, hum, it's not bad for the last month anyway." Theodore looked indifferent, "You can see that in this small village, The people here are pretty hospitable, and I paid enough for the room, at least a lot more than your half-deer. I also used magic to fish for them and teach their children how to write Common Language. Believe I, although you are a human being, you must not know as much as I do in common language, because I am a mage!"

He said complacently, "Yes, and arithmetic, which is very important to mages, but to be honest, they didn't learn this very well in the end. But no matter what, people in this small village respect me because I It's a mage!"

The little man takes his profession very seriously.

"I mean, are you sure you have to wait more than a month?" Barrett was a little puzzled. "Are you sure what you know is true?"

Looking for treasure, the whole process is to solve puzzles, find locations, go through traps, defeat guards, get treasure, divide the spoils (and maybe fight to reduce the number of spoilers), and you're done. Barrett had never heard of a treasure, and still had to wait.

"Are you doubting me again?" The little mage jumped up and stood in the middle of the wood on the chair so that he could get a little higher than Barrett.

The gnome mage looked down at the barbarian adventurer, and raised his voice to rebuke, "I - Theodore Shining Gold - the master of magic, would I do something to deceive my partner? Or you, a Nord barbarian, are actually in the Doubting my intelligence, thinking that I can't understand those obscure records in ancient documents?" He blushed angrily, "Say, are you doubting my IQ, or are you doubting my character?"

I'm doubting my decision, the right decision to go on a treasure hunt with you. Barrett is very helpless. I have worked with hundreds of partners. You are not the weirdest one, but you must be the one with the strongest self-esteem and the most inexplicable temper.

The owners of the house heard the sound and looked over again. Barret could only show that hypocritical kind smile again, indicating that everything was fine, and whispered to persuade the dwarf mage to be quiet.

"It's not a suspicion, it's an inquiry." For the sake of the treasure, he explained against his will, "Why can't we set off tomorrow to find the place where the treasure is hidden?"

"Hmph, Master Keen's magic tower doesn't appear casually." The dwarf mage was full of contempt, and his fluffy white beard was blown up by his humming, "The one named 'Miana' Since the fall of the Magic Empire and the disappearance of Mage Keen, the magic tower has remained in the original demiplane. And this demiplane is attached to the material plane like all other demiplanes owned by mages. On. Only at a specific time, in a specific place, when this demi-plane and the main material plane have more overlaps, can this mage tower be summoned from the demi-plane through the spell left by the Master Keen! "

To be honest, Barrett didn't really understand what the gnome mage said, but at least he understood the first sentence, "The treasure you're talking about is actually a magic tower!" He was surprised, "Is it dangerous? Hundreds of years have passed. Now, is this tower still running?"

"Of course it's running, this mage tower will automatically extract magic power from the negative energy plane to supply its own needs." Teaching the ignorant barbarians calmed the gnome mage's mood, "Almost all mage, in the construction of When they have their own magic towers, they will do this. They either extract a huge amount of magic power from various elemental planes, or from positive and negative energy planes, to maintain the operation of the mage tower. Occasionally, there will be mage directly from Chaos It is extracted from the 'sea of ​​magic', because there is the most magic and the most active, but it is also more dangerous, because the magic in the chaos and disorder is more difficult to control, only the most powerful mages dare to do so."

Barret didn't quite understand the above words, and things related to magic were not his specialty, but this did not prevent him from assessing the danger of this adventure.

Hard to break into the magic tower of the mage? It wasn't a good idea, and Barrett wanted to back off.

"You are a master of magic, a powerful mage, there's no doubt about that." He learned how to communicate with the little man, "but I'm just an ordinary adventurer, very ordinary. To be honest, I don't I don't think I can get out alive from a magic tower that is still functioning normally although it has no owner." Neither of us can get out, I am sure.

Now Barrett is not optimistic about this treasure hunt adventure at all, he is far less calm and confident than when he persuaded Theodore.

However, this half-dwarf dwarf mage of unknown origin in front of him said confidently, "Don't worry, even if it's just me, I have more than nine points of confidence. If I add you, although I don't know your strength. , but looking at your size, at least you should be able to be a personal human shield." He scratched his beard, "You think I'm not prepared at all? Humph, it's too naive! After the fall of the Magic Empire, it disappeared. The super-mages and even the legendary mages are not counted. Those unmaintained magic towers, whether they are built on the main material plane or half planes, are not small in number. Why do I want to look for the magic of Master Keen Towers and not the others?"

Because you don't know the location of other magic towers~www.mtlnovel.com~Why? ' Barrett asked timely.

"Because my family has a very close relationship with Master Keen. My grandfather's grandfather's grandfather... was once the apprentice of Master Keene, the only non-human apprentice!" Theodore Shining Gold Picks He raised his eyebrows with a stern expression, "My family's ancestors used to enter and exit the mage tower freely, and the spell and the key to open the door are still preserved, and I know the location of almost all magic traps. Not only that, My family also has a large collection of Master Keen's notes and manuscripts, and from those manuscripts, I have calculated the specific time, June 4." He whispered, "and the specific location." He pointed to He pointed to the piece of wood under his butt, indicating that the location was in this small village.

"You want that magic tower?" Barrett saw the ambition of the little mage.

"Of course, Master Keen has no descendants, so my ancestors have the right to inherit that magic tower. And I, Theodore Shining Gold, as the only heir to the Shining Gold family, of course, have the right to inherit all the inheritance of my ancestors. So , and so on, I also have the right to inherit that magic tower!"

He tapped his fingers on the dining table excitedly, "When I become the owner of the magic tower, I will change its name. 'Miana' is the former lover of Master Keen, if I continue to use it, It doesn't quite fit. I'm going to rename that mage tower..."

"Why did you change the name?" Barrett was a little curious.

"Renamed 'Dalaran'! And I, Theodore Shining Gold, is 'Dalaran Mage'!" the little man shouted with bright eyes.

PS: Pure spoof, nothing to do with time travel. You can search for 'Dalaran Mage' on Baidu for this stalk, and you can understand it at a glance.
