"There are many demiplanes in the tower, and most of the labs of mages are in these spaces, so the area looks small on the surface, but the actual area is much larger than you imagine—but because you are now a 'patient' ', for the sake of safety, you are not allowed to enter most public areas, please understand."
Silvia took Talia out of the "bedroom" area where she was originally, and at the same time gave a brief introduction.
"Ah...Of course I understand, I will definitely not walk around."
Going forward along the corridor, the atrium in the tower suddenly opened up Talia's eyes. She is currently on the fourth floor of the magic tower, but because the atrium is hollowed out, she can even see the high-level dragons and In the various research department areas where the high-level mages are located, as far as the eye can see, there are many figures with two horns on their heads walking back and forth.
The atmosphere in the magic tower is obviously serious and busy. Except for the mages, countless apprentices and servants hurriedly and even trotted to deliver various items and information. With the help of the magic circle, the small carts transporting magic materials floated invisible Glide on the track. Right below, Talia happened to see a two-meter-long black monster being placed in an iron prison and pulled over.
"Then... isn't it a monster?"
She stared at the still struggling figure and asked in a low voice.
Sylvia came over to take a look, and replied: "This should be some kind of animal that has been 'infected by demons', because the demon plane has more and more influence on the real plane, not only humans, but many animals or Warcraft Something is wrong. From my experience, the one you're seeing should be an infected sheep."
"sheep!?"
The corners of Talia's mouth twitched, because the monster's muscles were knotted, and its mouth was full of sharp teeth. Only the spiral horns on the top of its head could touch the "sheep". herbivores.
"One of the major characteristics of devil infection is that the infected creatures become extremely aggressive and violent." Sylvia led her along the corridor, "But as for the principle or solution, we still have to More research is needed. It is estimated that Elder Uslian will ask you about this at that time—by the way, I think you should be... a low-level mage?"
"I am an apprentice of the high-level mage Ethan, and my ability has just passed the assessment of the low-level mage, but, but I am actually still far behind."
In fact, Talia has always been particularly confident in her spell level. But after coming to Hollier City, she only felt that she was as small as a reptile.
But Sylvia didn't take it seriously, and said casually: "It's okay, with the status of a mage, you can also write papers in exchange for points. Many people are not qualified to enter the magic tower, and you are now entering the magic tower because of this kind of thing." , I suggest you try to seize this opportunity and learn a little bit more."
Faced with this kind reminder, Talia thanked her repeatedly with gratitude. However, she immediately remembered her "identity problem". After walking into the empty "canteen" area with Sylvia, she asked, "By the way, I... just applied for an identity certificate when I entered the city. Does it affect it?"
"Oh? You just started it, so... it's a bit troublesome."
Sylvia frowned and said: "Her Majesty does not require much from the people, but 'identity' is the top priority. You have to understand that everything you enjoy in Karen Kingdom is the same as Her Majesty's. The rights and interests bestowed are closely related. Without the seed improvement policy, people would not be able to eat such cheap food, and without the rapid update of magic and technology in Houlier City, magicians can only toss in their own field for a lifetime without seeing The Great Way of Truth. Can you understand me when I say so?"
Talia was stunned for a while. She didn't like the feeling that "everything she did was given by others", so she didn't say anything for a long time.
"You should have just come to Karen Kingdom not long ago, right? Then let me put it another way—whether Her Majesty the Queen, the Prime Minister... or the dragon lord or the great magister, 'identity' does not mean that you are loyal like a noble servant, but You need to understand who you are standing with. Our current enemy is not a certain country or a certain lord, but the whole race of another plane. If you don’t think that you are standing with the Karen Kingdom and even all mankind, So when war breaks out, whose side will you be on?"
"Of course I'm on the human side..."
"That's not necessarily true." Sylvia shook her head: "According to records, when the high elves faced the invasion of demons, many forces chose to side with the demons and became accomplices."
Sylvia herself has the appearance of a high elf, but Talia didn't realize this, she only thought that the other party was an "elf". She thought about the content of the conversation just now, but she also understood the meaning, nodded and said : "I understand now... As a mage, I have more power, and in order to ensure that this power does not betray, I must deepen my understanding of my own camp, right?"
"Yes, this is what each of us has to do. Have you checked your schedule? In addition to treatment, you also need to undergo a series of spiritual training to prevent the demon's bewitching from affecting you. Only Only with a firm belief in your heart can you better resist the invasion, this is the most important point."
Hearing that this involved her own illness, Talia immediately paid attention, and nodded quickly: "I will definitely carry it out! That..."
Before she could ask anything else, two other figures suddenly walked into the empty cafeteria. Sylvia and Talia looked over at the same time, and found that it was a thin young man and a man in the same uniform as Sylvia. mage.
This is obviously another "patient" and the guardian mage, Sylvia said hello to the mage, and then said to Talia: "There is a rule here, that is, you can talk to other people in public areas , but must be carried out under the supervision of the mage in the tower, and keep a distance of more than two meters."
"Two meters?"
"Because there was an accident before."
Sylvia deliberately didn't say much, but Talia's face turned serious, knowing that it might not be a good thing.
That "patient" looked bad. Although he was a man, his face was pale and skinny. Standing there, he looked like a sapling about to be blown down by the wind at any time. After seeing Talia, he didn't show any extra expressions, and quickly looked away.
Sylvia saw that they had no intention of communicating, so she continued to introduce how to order food in the cafeteria, and then took Talia to the half-plane area where she could "release the wind"—this is an open grassland with a beautiful view. Beautiful, sunny, but Talia was a little lost: "I saw that person just now... not in a good condition
"Invasion level 8, the probability of being cured is not high."
Sylvia shook her head, "We can only try our best to save it."
