MTL - Dawn of the Grey Tower-Chapter 131 Ground remains
Latest URL: Building a city in the North is different from other places. The stone city walls seem to be as long as they are stacked together, but actually require a lot of calculations and craftsmanship to truly have strength.
The former valley city was a qualified fortress city. Its original purpose was to cut off the roads in the valley area and prevent the frost guards from going south to pose a threat to the kingdom. However, during the plague, the witch who was on the opposite side of the cheese summoned a lord-level demon here through spells, turning the city into a projection of the abyss in the real world, causing the entire city's surface buildings to be destroyed.
Therefore, from the outside, today's Valley City looks like a dilapidated ruin, which looks desolate and desolate under the cover of snow, and it is impossible to imagine that it is still performing its functions as a city.
The snow was unbroken until a pair of well-built men and women arrived with four men and four wildebeest.
In the distance, the only towering building in the city looked at them quietly. It was a tall masonry tower, built very loosely. If it wasn't for the densely entwined vines on it, it might have collapsed long ago. Even so, The top of the tower also has a tendency to tilt, standing crookedly there.
No one can believe it for the first time, such a tower is the mage's tower of a mage, and this mage once repelled the entire siege army by himself.
"It seems to be more crooked than when I left." Cheese raised his head and looked at the tower named after himself. He shaped the tower with dilapidated buildings in the war many years ago, and it is also here lived for a long time.
"Anyway, it won't fall down. This will have a more miraculous effect." Jack shrugged and said as a matter of course. This tower is the mage's residence, so no matter how weird it is, it is normal. It is better to say that if it is too normal, it will appear to have no personality.
"Why doesn't it? I didn't cast a spell on the tower. It's too laborious to maintain the overall structure of the entire tower." I don't know if it's an illusion. When Cheese said this, the wolf staggered a little.
Even Mona stopped, turned her head to look at the gray robe, and asked with her eyes, are you serious? If the cheese really didn't stabilize the building, it would probably become the number one crisis in the entire Valley City. It's no joke that heavy stones collapsed from that height.
"Okay, don't look at me like that, I'll find a way to keep it like this. Well, when I have time." Whether it's through engineering or magic, cheese has a way to stabilize the situation of the tower, just to See if he is willing and has the time.
"I must remind you that all your books are still in there." Elsa knew what a wide time frame Cheese meant when he had time, and also knew what factors could force the gray robe to shorten the ridiculous length time span.
Sure enough, Cheese thought seriously for a few seconds, raised his eyes and carefully looked at the Tower of Cheese in the distance, "Well, I will start repairing it as soon as possible."
Since returning to the Northland, Cheese's speaking and acting style has become cheerful to the naked eye. He has never been so relaxed on the grassland, nor has he been so witty in the City of Ten Thousand Laws. Only in this place, he will show that ordinary person one side.
Why is this? The answer may be abstract, or it may be very clear. Although the skin color is different from the people here, and despite the different identities, the cold air here does capture the gray-robed mage. The ice and snow are cold, but when they become symbols, it is not unreasonable. with warmth.
Walking through the peaceful city wall, the mound-like dilapidated ruins on both sides tell its original function. As a person who has been active in the intact valley city, the scene in front of me tells that the so-called solidity is just a fantasy of people.
The valley city under the snow is slowly revealing some clues. If you are alert enough, you should realize that in a truly deserted city, there will be no low houses with traces of repairs, and shacks with curtains as roofs. But since the height of these buildings may be limited to the level that normal people can bend over to enter, it is also a test to face them squarely.
"It's so quiet here." Pinwei muttered in a low voice. There is something in the half-demon's words, and his senses are as sensitive as his. He has long been aware of the small voice of Xueshita who is moving slowly, and the words now are both complaints and warnings.
"It will get lively soon. We're almost at the entrance." Jack answered Pingwei loudly. He pointed to a relatively intact building not far away. It looked like a place like an outpost, but The watchtower above has collapsed, leaving only the stocky lower building.
"Aren't there entrances here? The snow has already exposed everything." Pinwei looked at a small hole not far from him. The snow outside the hole was indeed much thinner than the road, and it seemed that there was something coming from inside. The superheated gas melted the snowflakes that should have accumulated.
"Those entrances are too small. Unless you can shrink yourself to a third of your body like them, you can't go through. The entrance I said can let people of normal size enter, even wildebeest." Wolf Xingzhe's temper was originally not so patient, but this conversation also meant to report the current state of Valley City to Cheese, which was particularly detailed.
While talking, a group of people came to the building, Jack thought for a while, looked at Mona, "Sorry, I forgot the password."
The latter looked at the wolf with a helpless expression~www.novelbuddy.com~ and then stepped forward and knocked on the fence gate a few times. The places where she struck were different, and judging from the sounds she made, it should be that there was metal behind the wood, or in other words, only these places had metal behind the wood.
"Creak!" The sound of the bearing rotating sounded, and the wooden fence opened to both sides, revealing the dark interior space inside. The originally sealed floor fell inward, and a whole sloping downward ramp suddenly appeared in the dilapidated house in a neat manner.
"If they didn't make the entrance of the dungeon so hidden, the attitude of the visitors would be much better. I often hear people complain that coming here is like being a thief." Elsa complained softly, while touching Yuni's She seemed worried that the oppressive and gloomy atmosphere around would scare the apprentices.
"If they weren't so cautious, they wouldn't be rat people." Cheese sighed softly, physiological alienation would inevitably bring about a change in lifestyle. The rat people who once forced themselves to live as they did when they were humans, are now getting farther and farther away from the old in terms of habits and methods.
"Well, can some adults please come in quickly? The cold wind is pouring in." In the dark passage, a timid voice protested softly.
