Chapter 368

John used his wand to remove the key necklace, and the surrounding light dimmed.

"What is this key for?"

As an alchemist, John checked the key immediately.

There is an unlocking magic hidden in this key. Unlike the unlocking spell, this magic is a protective spell.

"Similar to the Secret Keeper of the Fidelity Charm." He concluded, stuffing the key into his pocket.

That protected place requires a key to find the entrance.

Being able to be protected with great fanfare might be something valuable.

Pulling out the staff, the bookshelves around John began to return to their original positions.

The light on the ground confirmed John's guess that this wizard tower was a huge magic amplification prop.

The specific effect can only be known by letting John walk through the entire tower.

He continued walking up.

Arriving on the sixth floor, there is a garden with lush green plants and crisscrossing roads turning the place into a maze.

It took John a while to walk out and reach the seventh floor.

There is a school hidden here.

Unlike Hogwarts, the school here gives people a depressing feeling, where everything is uniform.

Several classrooms are exactly the same, as if they were copied by a copying spell.

The way up is hidden above a pool, and in the pool are long-dead eels.

There are many star models on the eighth floor, and the flying stars simulate the universe.

This room seemed as vast as the universe. John walked around but could not find the entrance to the ninth floor.

He stopped, the sound of footsteps ringing in his ears.

The moment he approached, he turned around and grabbed the stabbing dagger.

With a twist of his right hand, he snatched away the exquisite knife and pressed it against the visitor's neck.

As if he didn't expect John's reaction to be so quick, the visitor's whole body stiffened, and goosebumps appeared on his slender white neck due to the cold.

John stared at the other person.

Long blond hair like silk, gray-blue eyes and fair skin.

After a brief pause in breathing, the woman stared at John with her eyes.

"Who are you? Why are you here? How did you get in?" He asked three times, and the beautiful woman looked very angry.

John's face turned cold, "This is what I want to ask you, who are you?"

This is the second person to appear in the Wizard Tower, and John will naturally not let go of the exploration.

The woman still wanted to be tough, but the cold feeling on her neck made her reluctant to say: "I am the owner of this place, Emily."

"Master?" John looked up and down suspiciously.

His suspicion stung Emily's heart, and she said firmly: "Sooner or later it will be."

Emily noticed the sword on John's back and saw the staff in his left hand, and her expression changed drastically.

"Did you pull out the gray crystal staff?" Emily cursed, "You stupid woodchuck, you will let the Dark Iron Blood Lord out!"

"The whole city will be in disaster."

Emily yelled that John was a groundhog, which made John look dark.

Does this guy not understand his current situation?

But Emily seemed to have broken the pot, "Okay now, when the Blood Lord finds us, we will die here. Where did you come in, you stupid fool!"

…

Chapter 394 I rescued the witch

A reckless man?

I?

John was lost in thought, and he was considering whether to put a tongue-locking spell on the mouth of this foul-mouthed guy.

Seeing that Emily seemed to be desperate, John simply put down the knife.

He asked casually: "What is this place? Who is that Black Iron Blood Lord?"

Emily no longer had any hope, and she didn't want to hide anything anymore.

"This is the Black Hawk Tower. The wizards from the independent wizard faction conducted research here. Later, they made a bold research that caused the wizards in the entire tower to disappear."

Emily knew this place very well. She rolled her eyes at John and said, "As for the Black Iron Blood Lord, he is a very dangerous guy."

"He was originally a viscount in this city. He later kidnapped me and pried open the Black Eagle Tower to enter, hoping to take away the treasures inside."

Speaking of this, Emily sarcastically said: "It's a pity that he was wrong. He thought that by controlling the wizard, he could control magic, and he was turned into a blood lord."

"I didn't expect that I could use magic to close this place so that he can't get out."

"The Blood Lord's weakness is his voice. I used the remaining magic power to summon a banshee, blocked his way out, and blocked the exit with the staff."

Emily laughed at John and said, "It's a pity that you, a reckless man, ruined everything. Now that everything is over, if the Blood Lord finds his body, no one can stop him."

While John was thinking, he raised his head and glanced at Emily strangely, and asked: "Is the Blood Lord you are talking about the guy made of blood?"

"Yes, it's him. He's looking for me everywhere. Fortunately, I hid on the eighth floor and he couldn't find me." Emily responded without noticing anything was wrong.

John looked weird and said: "If it's that guy, he should be dead."

"Don't be ridiculous, how could he..." Emily glared at John dissatisfied.

But soon, Emily realized something, and she asked in horror: "You didn't meet the Blood Lord when you came up?"

"Meet him," John nodded honestly, "I killed him."

"Impossible!" Emily said excitedly, "You are lying to me. It is impossible for ordinary people to kill him."

As she said that, she saw the style of the sword on John's back and screamed in surprise: "Are you a witcher? No, no, even a witcher can't kill him."

Emily had some suspicions that John was trying to trick her into leaving.

But John raised his hand silently, and a flame bloomed in his hand.

"I burned it with fire."

A simple sentence tells the truth.

Emily was confused, why would an exorcist use magic?

It is true that some exorcists have these small methods, but most of them are similar to shock waves.

In the end, Emily accepted the reality.

She doubted life and said: "The person who forced me to be trapped in this tower for a long time was killed like this?"

She thought of something and asked, "Were you the one who cast the spell yesterday?"

John recalled that he had used a cleaning spell.

This left Emily speechless. She thought it was a wizard, so she opened the door specifically to let the wizard in and join forces to deal with the Blood Lord.

As a result, an exorcist came and killed the Blood Lord directly.

This makes Emily's previous efforts look very worthless.

"By the way, where is the ninth floor of this tower?" John still couldn't find the entrance to the ninth floor.

Emily retorted, "There's no ninth floor here."

John thought, there is no ninth level?

Emily stayed here for a long time. Although she was trying to avoid the Blood Lord, she also learned a lot about it.

Most of the Blood Lords stay on the fifth floor, trying to escape from the Black Hawk Tower through the knowledge inside.

The upper floors became a place for Emily to explore.

She can confirm that there is no ninth level here.

This tower was originally built by the wizard independent faction. They had different beliefs from other wizards and wanted to cultivate an army belonging to wizards by occupying the city.

Unfortunately, it was not implemented and all disappeared because the experiment failed.

Emily's background is not small, she is the royal wizard of her country.

He was deceived and told that there were magical creatures causing trouble, but he was kidnapped by the Black Iron Viscount and brought to the Black Eagle Tower.

At the same time, she also had the idea of ​​investigating the Black Hawk Tower.

Putting a notebook on the table on the seventh floor, Emily said: "This is all the information I can find on Black Hawk Tower. Witcher, you solved the Blood Lord. I don't mind sharing a little bit with you." ."

John opened it, and above were the notes Emily collected through the Black Hawk Tower information.

One of the strange words caught John's attention.

"Megalith?"

He looked up at Emily, hoping for an answer.

Emily didn't understand this either, and said: "It seems that the main research direction of Black Hawk Tower is the monolith, and the ninth floor you call should be the place where the monolith is studied."

"The disappearance of that group of wizards is most likely related to the giant stone monument."

John nodded when he heard this, and then put the book into his pocket very naturally.

Emily's eyes widened, "What are you doing?"

"Isn't this the reward you gave me?" John waved his hand generously, "I don't want the money anymore, just use this to pay off the debt."

Call me a groundhog, right?

I generally don't hold grudges, and I usually take revenge on the spot.

Emily bared her teeth and claws to snatch it back, but was suppressed by John with one hand.

In the end, there was nothing she could do, so Emily promised that she would make a new copy and give it to John.

…

The two walked out of the black tower.

Emily has been away for too long, and she needs to go back and report to the king as soon as possible.

"If you really want to know about the ninth floor, then go to the Royal Capital, there might be someone there who knows." Emily said before leaving.

She asked John to buy the staff, and John knew she was hiding something.

It's for the staff, which was left behind by the independent wizard.

The key inside has been taken away by himself, so the staff is of no use.

In addition, this thing is not suitable for John, he is accustomed to using a wand.

So John simply opened his mouth and asked Emily not only to walk back to the capital, but also to owe John a large sum of gold.

After solving the banshee and blood lord, Kang Sang's haze has not dissipated.

John knew that this was because of the existence of the Black Tower. As long as the tower existed, it would keep Kang Sang in this state.

Staring at the black tower, John finally ignored it.

He wasn't sure if destroying the Black Tower would have more serious consequences.

He returned to the tavern and found that the tavern was particularly lively today.

The smile on Heiberg's face never stopped, and he drank one glass after another while receiving copper and silver coins.

This is completely different from yesterday.

Libby was also given a free glass of wine by Heiberg who was in a good mood. It was the first time Libby tried this taste and it was so spicy that she burst into tears.

Seeing John coming back, Libby immediately ran over.
