Twenty Sided Dice

Siegel drew his sword, and the icy touch of Stardust reassured him. [\/\/ Novel update please search] He stabbed the corpses on the ground with his long sword to make sure they would not get up. Only then cast the spell to float them in mid-air so they can check for themselves.

For safety's sake, he decided not to touch the body with his hands. Siegel's ability to manipulate multiple objects with mind-control spells, which he demonstrated with Loremaster Faranis, has grown more and more adept as his spell abilities have improved. The mage robe on the corpse contained a lot of miscellaneous items, such as wands, spell material bags and all light items. These are not Siegel's goals. What he is looking for is the work plans of the dead mages, as well as all the intelligence information related to the Red Fata.

But none of these three people found anything.

The mage continued to look at the house, why did the three of them choose to die here? The blood on the ground was completely concentrated under the chair, and there was no blood anywhere except flowing along the terrain. Apparently, they sat on the chair until they died. But Siegel found no sign of being restrained here, the door was open, and no guards were found. There must be something in this room that attracts them, and they would rather eat themselves hungry and smiling than leave.

Siegel followed the corpse's gaze just now, only to see a bare wall, only a fireplace was installed on this wall. Siegel was taken aback for a moment. From the outside of the magic tower, the whole building was clearly integrated, and there was no chimney at all. Why is there a fireplace in the house? Siegel crouched down and used stardust to shake the dross out of the fireplace.

It is definitely not firewood burning here. Siegel took a closer look. The ash after burning wood is definitely not like this! He found a hard gray-black fragment in the waste residue, only about the size of the tip of a needle. Siegel picked it up with a spell and looked closely.

"Shards of Flame Soul Crystal!" Siegel finally recognized such a thing. He crouched down and looked more closely.

The other debris was still unrecognizable, but he found some Fire Soul Crystal fragments in the corner of the fireplace. Siegel collected them, including a portion of the "ash," all in the space bag. Maybe back to the magic lab. With the help of alchemy tools, it is possible to know what this kind of thing is.

To avoid later discovery, the bodies of the three deceased mages were put back into chairs by Siegel, their contents intact. Siegel believes that there must be a construction plan for the magic circle and magic tower outside, and at least there should be something like a log. So he continued to search upwards.

The stairs go straight on, past many rooms—a simple lounge, a barn ready to hold things, an oval room with an enchanting workbench. These rooms are empty and will be filled when they are finished. Siegel kept walking, and the stairs ended in front of a pair of huge bronze doors.

The door opened automatically as he approached. Siegel felt that there was no danger around him, so he poked his head and looked in. Inside is a vast brass palace, larger than the magic tower itself, and it must have been through the effect of space magic. The heads of many dead creatures hang on the yellow walls, each of which belongs to a powerful species. Siegel saw a large number of dragons, a magic ball full of eyes, a demon with sharp horns, and even a silver-white golem head. They lowered their heads, looked down coldly, and focused their eyes on the bronze gate. And the center of the palace. There was a lead-grey metal chair, covered with thorns and barbs, who could sit on such a chair? The back of the chair is inlaid with red gems, the largest and roundest gem is inlaid on the claw rest at the top of the chair, next to it is written a sentence in the language of the dragon: "Flesh and blood will eventually pass away, but thoughts are eternal."

There is nothing wrong with this sentence itself, but it is strange to write in such a place where all the skulls of strong people are, it seems to be showing off, or coercion. Siegel looked at the heads here, many of which were unrecognizable at all. He could only guess that those weird, twisted but intimidating heads might have come from other worlds. It is like a museum here, and what can be displayed must be carefully selected specimens. Siegel looked at it several times and finally found the problem.

There are no heads of undead creatures in it.

Not to mention the lowly undead. Such as skeletons or zombies, these are definitely not enough to hang on the wall. Among the undead, there are also powerful vampires, death knights, night shadows (this one should not be able to hang without a body), dracolich, and the demigod lich at the top of all undead monsters, which are not reflected on this wall. Combined with the words on the chair, Siegel probably understood why the door opened automatically for him, and he didn't feel any danger in the room.

This is for undead creatures.

The mage maintains the skeleton body shape. Step forward and wander in this hall. He noticed that as he walked, the head on the wall would also divert his gaze, always saluting Siegel. This kind of taste is not good, there is always a feeling of awning on the back. Fortunately, he is now in the state of a skeleton, his heart is like still water, and he has a strong resistance to this situation. After looking at the entire Brass Hall, he was sure that there were no other portals, and the magic tower ended here.

But where was the documents and information he was looking for?

Siegel set his sights on the chair in the center of the room and walked over slowly. The base of the chair and the ground are completely cast together, solid and inseparable. After getting close, you will find that the metal surface is not flat, and there are many sharp protrusions all over the surface of the chair. In the space between the protuberance and the gemstone, there are many thin gray lines that do not cross each other. Siegel had seen this fine line style on the golden skeleton warrior he had destroyed.

I don't know what these runes are used for, but I can write them down and study them slowly. Siegel took out a pen and paper, and used the magic of rubbing to record the surface structure and magical lines of the chair.

Siegel can basically confirm that there is a connection between the Knox Common Society and the undead. Originally, he wondered why they would specialize in mind control spells. After all, the shortcomings of such spells are very obvious, especially in the face of golems, elements and undead. But if they were originally connected with the undead and had such a powerful ally, then they would make up for this deficiency and could concentrate on studying and controlling living creatures.

This is in response to the sentence on the chair: "Flesh and blood will eventually pass away, but thoughts are eternal."

There was no place to hide things near the chair, and after thinking for a while, Siegel restrained his curiosity and cautiously gave up trying to sit on it. When he approached the door, he triggered some kind of mechanism, which made the bronze door open. Who knows what else would trigger sitting in a chair?

Thinking of this, he suddenly clapped his hands, and the hard bones collided with a crisp sound. In this magic tower, there were no sorcerers of the Common Society, only three mages from the original union. They can't look at this bronze palace all day long. So Siegel exited the palace and went back up the stairs. The bronze door closed automatically behind him, quietly blocking the end of the stairs.

Siegel took a deep breath and returned to his human form. He kept his eyes on the bronze door, reminding never to look at the "portrait of joy" on the stairs. He reached out and opened the door again. Sure enough, the room I saw this time was different.

This is a library, warm and cozy. On one side of the wall, five-story high shelves were filled with books, and the book titles were marked in silver dragon language on the backs of different thicknesses. There are no candlesticks or fireplaces here, only a safe, unquenchable flame provides light. Soft white light illuminates the large table, which is filled with various drawings and materials. Next to the ink bottle, quill pens for writing are stacked in boxes, and those that are worn out are discarded in the wastebasket.

A grandfather clock was placed beside the table, which had been stopped because it was not looked after. Next to it is a couch with a backrest, an open book on thick cushions and a grey rabbit-fur blanket. There is a tray on the coffee table next to the sofa. There are still unfinished drinks in the golden cup. Siegel leaned in and looked at it. It was the broken black tea and the copy of "Silver Flame - Legendary Technology".

This book is also in the library in Heimland, and it is the original version, so there is no need to waste time looking at the transcript. He only focused on blueprints he had never seen before, especially those involving magic towers and magic circles. The scrolls placed on the table clearly showed the main points of depicting the magic circle outside the Red Tower, and there was also a brief panorama. Siegel found a large blank piece of paper from the bookshelf and used a spell to copy the important information.

There are a lot of casting materials used in "transcription", all of which were used by Siegel. He studied the function of the magic circle while copying it, and finally understood the purpose of those crazy laughing circles. The entire magic tower is a spell amplifier, enhancing the strength and range of the spell. This "joy tower" can create joy and happiness. Turn everyone's emotions into irrepressible joy on a large scale. Except for prepared spellcasters, most ordinary people will be infected by this emotion.

If it is used on the battlefield to make both sides of the battle lay down their weapons, this is indeed a good spell. But if you use the spell to the extreme. Or what if it gets out of control? Infinite happiness will make people lose their fighting spirit, and even lose the strength to fight for survival. They will find a comfortable place to soak in the feeling and not move except smile.

When hungry, they will find the nearest food, which is themselves.

That's how the three mages died. They must have made a mistake in making the magic circle, which caused them to be affected by this spell. Fortunately, the scope of the spell is limited to the magic tower. It did not spread out, otherwise this hub castle would become a **** of death. Thinking of this picture, Siegel shuddered. The spell technology that the Knox Common Association mastered was too terrifying. Why didn't the Mages Association seal it up?

In addition to the hub castle, will the magic tower in Ximu Town have the same effect? Of all the emotions, joy and happiness are considered beneficial emotions, and most spells do not specifically protect against it, which gives the Knox Brotherhood an opportunity. They are indeed experts in the study of mind control spells. When facing the mundane world, within the range of the magic tower, such spells can have an absolute control effect.

Siegel knew that with his current strength, he could not face the Knox Commonwealth head-on for the time being, and the situation on the Mage Federation's side was unclear. Siegel could not guess whether Alexander the Lion and William the Traveling Mage knew, so he did not dare to take the risk of contacting the two. If Master Kasper finds out about this, the entire Heim Territory will not have a good life.

But he won't let the red **fa tower build such a dangerous magic enchantment in the city. All souls should be free to choose their own thoughts, and there are professionals in this area.

Siegel wanted to inform the various temples in the New World about this. (To be continued.)
