To Burris The Spellcaster And His Family Dependent

Chapter 91

Back on the altar, Boris was busy casting spells to break the space restriction so that Odette could be removed from the top of the tower. During the cumbersome casting process, he found that his fingers were much stiffer than usual... Only then did he realize that he should cancel the transformation spell and return to his twenty-year-old state.

That afternoon, Boris left the White Tower with the three creations, and after jumping through several magic circles, he finally returned to the Mountains of No Return before dusk. There is a magic labyrinth area in the mountain forest, which is spacious and safe enough, not far from the tower, just suitable for hiding a huge black and white striped sluggish dragon.

Odile stayed in the labyrinth area, wanting to spend more time with Odette. Boris originally wanted to stay and observe for a while before leaving, but he was so tired that he couldn't concentrate, so he decided to go back to the tower to rest first. Siegfried took the initiative to let him lie on his body, and carried him back to the gate of the tower.

In front of the tower, Siegfried stopped and stuttered to wake up Boris. Boris raised his head from the griffin fur and looked at a large group of undead incorporeal soldiers in front of the tower.

There are not only incorporeal soldiers, but also several orc skeletons that look like leaders. They are holding sharpened ox bones and riding pigs... to be precise, the bones of huge wild boars.

The tower door opened a small crack, and Earl Herolf yelled for joy and galloped out. Seeing Siegfried, not only was it not afraid, but it kept jumping and turning around beside the griffin, perhaps because Siegfried somewhat had Lott's breath on him.

Burris dropped his hand from the back of the griffin and stroked the dog's head. Earl Herolf yelled a few times as if urging him, ran a few steps towards the forest, and then turned back, as if asking him where Lott was hiding.

After the dog, another pale face with blond hair and blue eyes appeared through the crack of the door. Heisong observed carefully for a while, and finally ran out with confidence, and came to the Griffin in three steps at a time.

Boris looked at him numbly: "You take these things away..."

"I already know!" Heisong leaned over excitedly, "I already know... uh, I already know who you are. I didn't mean to know, it's because... that... At that time, some of his consciousness passed on to you. come over… "

It's over, Burris thought. Yriel has really been in trouble for thousands of years in both big and small things...

Heisong put his right hand on his heart and said loudly: "Teacher, if you want to hide this... er, this change, then I will definitely keep the secret for you and never reveal the truth to anyone! Please believe me, I will I swear to all the love of my life!"

Burris looked at the elf's right hand. The little finger on his right hand was broken by Yriel, and he now has a splint on his hand.

"You... get rid of the incorporeal bodies first..." Boris waved his hands weakly, "There are also orc skeletons and pigs..."

Heisong nodded fiercely, and hurriedly obeyed. After the unsightly undead guards disappeared, Boris slid off the griffin and shuffled slowly into the tower door.

He found a recliner in the living room, leaned into it and remained motionless.

He told himself that he couldn't relax now, the matter was far from over, the Austrian Federation still had to investigate the matter of the White Tower, and Lott hadn't come back yet... But no matter how he reminded himself, he was still thinking wandering and listless.

Heisong leaned close to Siegfried and asked him where Odile was in a low voice. Siegfried looked at the elf who had suffered together, thought of the previous experience, thought of the missing master, and thought of Odette in black and white... His nose was sore, and he covered his face with his wings and cried bitterly.

=================

Burris' trance didn't last long. A few minutes later, a bell rang in the tower, and someone was calling him with a communication crystal.

He asked Willis the Golem to bring down the crystal and put it in the reception room. He turned off the imaging function of the crystal and only listened to the sound transmission. Disguising a voice is much less labor intensive than another transformation spell.

Grindyll's voice came from the crystal. He said there was an emergency which had to be reported to Burris. Burris' head was swollen, and he pinched his eyebrows and asked him to continue.

This "emergency" is quite a twist. To put it simply, the "suspicious boy in white" almost ran away... Fortunately, he was caught back in the end.

When the mage and knights were evacuating to the large teleportation array, they suddenly encountered a cold night owl. It is not a living alien creature, but an undead creature that has turned into dry bones. Its attack is very violent, but it seems to lack reason and no specific target. The mage and knights fought together and quickly repelled it.

This thing can fly, so it's not very easy to chase. The captain of the Silver Blade Knight suggested to leave it alone and send someone back to clean it up in the future. The mages agreed.

Strangely, after Han Yexiao was driven away, the boy in white in the arcane cage suddenly went berserk. He cursed and cursed a lot, wanted to cast a spell, and kept beating the force field barrier. He tossed so hard that the Silver Blade Knights had to put down the cage.

A mage makes a foolish decision: open the arcane cage to check what's wrong with the boy.

It was nothing at first, Yriel couldn't beat so many people, especially after he lost Odette. That's why Burris returned to the Mountains of No Return with peace of mind, leaving the trivial matters to the students and colleagues.

If Yriel tried to run or attack, the mages would surely have overpowered him in no time, but he didn't. After being released from his cage, he continued to curse and go berserk, but didn't hurt anyone... The most damage he did was kicking a knight several times.

Yriel got tired of tossing and lying on the ground, and people relaxed their vigilance towards him a little. The team was exposed on the unsheltered plain. At this moment, Han Yexiao suddenly left and returned.

It swooped down from behind the low thick clouds, wounding two knights and a mage, and finally lifted the boy in white with its claws.

Han Yexiao grabbed Yilier, accelerated to take off under the concentrated fire of arrows and magic rays, and escaped into the forest in the blink of an eye. When narrating this passage, Grindyll said that the boy seemed to be really terrified. He screamed and struggled, as if he was conspiring with the monster to escape.

After chasing into the rime forest, the mages were a little exhausted. They had been busy for a long time, basically without eating or drinking. Most of the men were so tired that they had a stomachache, and several of the women had hypoglycemia. The silver blade knights were still dignified, but were slowed down by the mage.

They wandered around in the rime forest for a long time, and finally found the breath of Han Yexiao. They came to a small body of water, which, according to the map, was a small lake formed by the tributaries of the Khiva River. Dozens of Frostland barbarians stood by the lake, holding all kinds of strange and crude weapons in their hands, blocking the knights and telling them not to approach the lake.

The knight captain asked them what was in the lake, and a blond girl pointed to a big hole in the lake ice and said, "There are devil snakes in the lake, and a flying bone that fell in."

The Frostland barbarians were once ruled by Yriel, and the older members of the tribe have seen many monsters. They called flying undead creatures "flying bones" and palm pythons "devil snakes".

The knight asked her what the "flying bone" looked like, and according to her description, that thing was undoubtedly Han Yexiao.

Frostland barbarians feel that the recent rime forest is not safe, and the "devil snake" that has disappeared for many years has reappeared in Mirror Ice Lake and Khiva River. So they organized a team and approached slowly from the tribe towards the White Tower, investigating whether any monsters reappeared along the way.

Today they walked near the small lake and found a "flying bone" attacking people. They drove the monster away with slings and spears, and rescued a white-haired boy from its claws.

"Flying Bones" stood on the surface of the lake while trying to counterattack. As soon as its claws touched the ice, several "devil snakes" suddenly sprang out from under the ice, and soon dragged "Flying Bones" into the lake.

The barbarian girl spoke the Common Tongue very well, and spoke it with pride. The knight asked her with a sullen face, where did the man in white go

She slapped her head: yes, where did she go? It seems to have run away

When he heard this, Boris urged: "How did you catch him back later? I don't need to go into details about the various efforts in the middle."

So Grindyll went straight to the end. It wasn't them who caught the boy in white, but a young warlock with red hair.

The reason why everyone knows that he is a warlock is because... he loudly announced that he is a warlock with a sense of presence. While handing over the man in white to the knights, he glanced triumphantly at the mages.

The man was clearly the Red Vulture. While on top of the tower, Boris saw him cast a spell from afar. The red vulture has been active on the edge of the frosty plain and rime forest, and has never been close to the White Tower. Before the mages came out of the tower, he had already got into the woods and was about to leave.

Burris speculates that probably because he is a warlock and has been strengthened by Siegfried, he can perceive the subtle elemental fluctuations on the frosty field and can sensitively sense that the matter is over.

The Red Vulture met the escaped man in white and turned him back to the mages. The mages once again sealed the man in white into an arcane cage. This time, his head drooped, his body was limp, and he didn't toss or yell.

The red vulture didn't describe their encounter in detail, and the mages didn't know what kind of communication he had with the man in white.

When Grindyll was talking about this passage, Odile and Siegfried, who had temporarily turned into a human form, also slipped into the tower and followed Heisong.

All three were terrified: Odile and Siegfried were worried that the red vulture would reveal the identity of Yriel. Of course, Yriel was not worthy of distress. They were just afraid that they and their master would be exposed; The scene when the vultures meet again... For God's sake, a warlock has captured the legendary Lord of the White Tower, and he can no longer justly laugh at the red vultures...

After listening to all the reports, Boris asked, "Are you in the city of North Star now?"

"Yes," Grindyll said, "the man in white is locked in the prison of the temple. He tried to escape several times, but all failed."

"Have you found out his identity?"

"No, he doesn't want to communicate with people. Haida used Veritaserum on him, but it didn't work. His thinking was too confused. He said he was a silver dragon for a while, a priest for a while, and a priest for a while. Dead Yriel..."

Burris frowned. Veritaserum really works. Such a statement would not be accepted, especially if the speaker was in high spirits or behaving erratically.

"What do you think?" Burris asked.

"He is obviously an admirer of the Lord of the White Tower, and he may want to use some spell to revive Yriel. Also, we think he is not a mage, but a once relatively powerful warlock."

There was a burst of laughter from outside the reception room. Boris stared at him fiercely, and the laughter stopped immediately.

"Is he a warlock?" Boris asked cautiously, "I also think his power display is rather rough, not quite like a mage."

Grindyll said: "It's like this. The flow of elements near the White Tower is very abnormal. As the suspect was captured, the element anomalies gradually subsided. Now we have checked him and found that there are a lot of combed elements left on him. It is an element in a balanced state, which is in line with the physical fluctuation characteristics of a warlock. But at the same time, no spellcasting talent can be detected in his blood, that is to say, his warlock ability has experienced an acute decline, and his power cannot be dispersed."

Outside the door, Heisong asked in a low voice: "Will the Warlock's power decline?"

"Yes," Odile replied, "just as the 'strength' of ordinary people also declines. Normally, all your abilities will decline with old age, right? And in special cases, young people It may also suddenly become weak, such as serious injuries, loss of limbs, serious illness, adverse reactions across planes, being cursed by specific magic, etc... The same is true for warlocks. Their blood talent is equivalent to the behavior ability of ordinary people, so Reinforcement and recession are similar."

Hearing this new knowledge point, the tension on Heisong's face disappeared, and he raised his head again.

The author has something to say:

Is he considered a black magician this time
