Although the sun was shining brightly in the sky, the temperature in this cold place was still extremely low, and the ice and snow showed no sign of melting, and there were creaking noises under everyone's feet. Looking at the direction of the group of people, they were indeed walking towards the mage tower that exuded an evil aura.
When Sheyan got closer, he could see that, strictly speaking, this building could not be called a mage's tower. Because most of its building materials are made of dark black solid rock, this kind of building material looks very hard, with obvious traces of knives and axes on it, and even faintly has a rough and majestic appearance.
But because of this, it can be called a fortress/fortress, and it can also add magnificent, strong and other adjectives to the front-but it has nothing to do with mages. Only on the top floor can you see that there are mithril threads connecting the gaps in the wall, calcite as the conduction of spellcasting, protective runes carved by graphite lines, and exclusive energy areas separated by partitions, which can obviously be called magic towers. Only the top layer.
In fact, you can figure it out with your toes. Most of this tower was built by the half-orcs driven by Saruman's avatar. These guys who seem to have muscles in their brains are able to do this, obviously they have tried their best and can't ask for anything better. When Fang Sheyan walked to the door of the mage tower, a strong orc who looked extraordinarily tall and strong came out from inside. His face was extraordinarily ferocious and hideous. He carried a huge bow and arrow on his back. But whether it is the bow string or the surface of the bow arm, there is a thin layer of light flowing like water, which is extraordinary at first glance.
When the other orcs saw this orc, they all seemed quite afraid, and retreated to the side separately. The tall, strong orc glanced at Sheyan and asked:
"Who is this?"
There was a growl in his low voice, obviously with a considerable degree of anger. The warden Ge Keluo who was walking ahead hastily stepped forward:
"Master Lutz, the great envoy ordered him to be brought here."
Hearing the name Lutz, a thought flashed through Sheyan's heart like lightning:
"This guy... is Lutz?"
In the movie plot, an important member of the Fellowship of the Ring, Boromir, the son of the regent and the commander of the Gondors, died at the hands of this orc with amazing archery skills. Even the elf prince Legolas It was also once blocked by it. Its strength is evident. Judging from his appearance at this time, it is obvious that Saruman's avatar has the trust of him.
Lutz said coldly:
"Wait here."
After speaking, he turned around and walked in, and after a while, he walked in, and he simply shook his head at Sheyan, signaling him to go in. Obviously, the orcs were far more intelligent than the half-orcs, and they were also very fluent in the common language of Middle-earth at that time.
This mage tower doesn't look big from the outside, but the space inside is not small. Fang Senyan followed Lutz, feeling like he was going upstairs and through the door non-stop, and everything he saw during the period was recorded by him wholeheartedly. In the mind, wait until later to think about it slowly.
Their final destination was a laboratory with a pungent smell. There are large oak tables, test tubes, baking dishes that look like glass balls spliced one after another, and various alcohol lamps. The training cabin and so on. The walls of this room are made of thick stones, iron blocks, and other alloys, and are protected by mesh arcane energy. The inner wall is also protected by various elemental effects. It seems that certain accidents and accidents should often occur here. Of course, there are some magic organs and experimental objects that Sheyan does not recognize.
Saruman's avatar was sitting on a chair at this time and was meditating. There was a piece of debris in the container in front of him. This East and West Mori Rock was quite familiar with it. It was the curse potion he had thrown earlier to scare the orc guards. broken glass bottle. As soon as this powerful mage raised his head, Sheyan felt that his eyes were like sharp knives trying to dissect his internal organs. Obviously, the difference in strength between the two parties was unknown.
Don't talk about Saruman's avatar, even if Lutz wants to kill Sheyan, it will only take one arrow at most. According to Sheyan's preliminary estimate, even if he added the reef himself, the limit would be to kill the warden Ge Keluo at most, and it must be in a one-on-one situation. Fortunately, Sheyan and the others' original intention of entering this world was not to kill/fight, but to try their best to prolong their stay.
And more importantly: in this world, Sheyan can return to the nightmare space at any time, this is Sheyan's greatest strength! Otherwise, he could tell that this clone of Saruman was moody and violent. If his sixth-level ability black magic deployment technique is exposed, there is at least a 30% to 40% chance of being killed by him on the spot! But with the ability to return at any time to protect the body, Sheyan doesn't have to bear too much consequence of failure, so of course he is willing to take a gamble, because even if he loses the bet, there is still time for Reef to survive and continue the mission.
Seeing Lutz walking in with Sheyan, Saruman's avatar did not look up, but continued to sit on the chair for a while before speaking.
"My servant said that he found something very interesting, and there is enough evidence to prove that he is not lying."
Having said that, the old Saruman clone slowly stood up with a stooped body. He coughed a few times, still making the sound from his abdomen. His eyes fixed on the shards of glass bottles on the table.
"I didn't believe it at first, so Mr. Ge Keluo took three whips for nothing, but under his insistence, I didn't miss this very interesting item... or the evidence. Now, I will first ask Ge Keluo Mr. Corot's loyalty and cleverness will be rewarded. Please answer a few questions after this, if your answer is not satisfactory to me, or if you are lying at all, then I have to use the magic of memory extraction."
"This excellent magic can perfectly obtain most of the memories in your brain, and there are only two side effects. The first side effect is to stir your brain thicker than red wine juice. Or you will suffer very, very much in the process—you have ten seconds to consider my suggestion—Lutz, reward Mr. Gekro with a bucket of strong wine and fifty pounds of meat, the bloody kind."
Sheyan walked towards the table, Lutz's ferocious eyes tightened, but Sheyan picked up a glass bottle fragment very calmly, bowed slightly to Saruman's clone:
"Senior Alchemist Assistant Sailor pays tribute to you, great Master Mage. My teacher has devoted himself to the research of biological weapons since several years ago. He always believes that the most powerful weapon is not forged, but the physical body." Self-healing ability, so he started tireless research on this point, and has a little experience—I am a student who inherited part of his experience.”
"Given that I have deeper theoretical knowledge, more nimble fingers, a clearer mind, richer work experience, stronger and faster work efficiency than these orcs, so I have reason to ask for some delicious food, clean accommodation and limited privileges.”
"Oh, please don't look at me with such eyes. Great mage, I'm just a guy who is good at analysis and thinking—this is also one of the weapons that an excellent alchemy assistant must have—the mood of Mr. Lutz It doesn't look very good. There may be many reasons for a human to be in a bad mood, but for a simple strong orc, the only reason for being in a bad mood is the owner's scolding. Look at the corner again, those big groups of people Stains, and small fragments of test tubes that have not been cleaned up indicate that your assistant is not competent. Of course, the reason why I have enough courage to stand in front of you is because I have heard a sentence more than once: a clever And efficient alchemy experiment assistants are welcome everywhere."
Saruman's clone said coldly:
"If your real materials can catch up to half of your words, then I can guarantee that your first two requirements can be met. But before that, you have to tell me who your teacher is."
"It's a pity." Fang Senyan shrugged his shoulders: "I can't say his name. Otherwise, my vow will be fulfilled, and my head will explode with a bang, which is worse than memory extraction. Oops, believe me, my lord, a living sailor is more useful than a dead one."
Saruman's avatar is of course cunning and cunning, at most he heard half of what Fang Sheyan said, and he only believed half of what he heard. However, Fang Senyan deliberately sneaked into the mage tower, and did not intend to impress Saruman with a few words in advance. The smartest people in the world tend to believe more in eyes than ears.
Just as Sheyan was about to take out a bottle of bear + fox mixture to further win the trust of Saruman's avatar, he suddenly saw two half-orcs carrying a dead snow bear walking in, bleeding all over the ground along the way. , his eyes lit up, and he immediately yelled at the two half-orcs:
"What are you two guys doing? Why don't you seal the snow bear's wound? The more blood it loses, the more it will affect the quality of the preparation!"
The half-orc's brain really lacked a tendon, and was stunned by Fang Sheyan's roar, and he was in a hurry and really planned to put the snow bear down to plug the wound. Sheyan said loudly:
"No, you two go and bring me the knife and pliers over there."
