Chapter 127 Clues to the Tower of Stars

At the end of the month of Frost, the coalition forces of Flash Territory and White Tower Province finally completed their war preparations.

However, just as Key and the Marquis of White Tower were preparing to launch the final attack, an uninvited guest suddenly came to the door.

"Evans?"

In the meeting room, Sunan was stunned after hearing what Key said.

"That's right."

Key and the Marquis of White Tower looked at each other, and their expressions were also a little strange.

"When we first received the letter, we also suspected that the other party was planning some conspiracy, but the people we sent over have already investigated clearly that the person there is indeed Evans, the legendary figure of the royal family."

The Marquis of White Tower also nodded: "I have seen the portrait uploaded below, and it is indeed Mr. Evans. Yes, he looks exactly the same as he did fifty years ago."

Sunan was puzzled: "This is strange, why did he come to our territory alone? And he asked to see me by name?"

Even if it is a three-ring legendary knight, it is still difficult for one person to fight against a thousand hands.

In the territory of the coalition forces, Key could completely dispatch the Golem Corps and the Black Rock Cavalry Corps to besiege Evans. As long as he spared no expense, he could kill him with the human wave tactics!

After all, the legendary knight is not a wizard apprentice, but has strong combat power and does not have so many strange means. Once he is surrounded, he will die.

Not to mention that Sunan is here.

"We don't know his purpose, but I have sent the Golem Corps to surround the tavern where Evans is."

Key looked at Sunan with a serious expression.

"What do you think? Do you want to meet him, or do we take action directly and take this opportunity to kill Evans?"

As long as Evans is solved, the biggest uncertainty in this war will disappear, and victory will be at hand.

Sunan thought about it and shook his head and said, "Forget it, I'll go meet him."

He originally planned to meet Evans to see how the other party extended his life.

Besides, he was also very curious about the reason why Evans wanted to meet him.

Seeing that Sunan had made a decision, Keyi and the Marquis of Baita said no more.

Anyway, they were all on their own territory, so there was no need to worry even if Evans had any conspiracy.

When they arrived at the tavern where Evans was, it was surrounded by three layers of people inside and outside. All they could see were dense stone golems, black rock cavalry, and even steel golems.

It can be said that Evans could not escape at this moment.

Sunan became more and more curious about Evans's purpose. This legendary figure would not come here to die on his own initiative, right?

Pushing open the door of the tavern, the tavern was deserted. Except for an ordinary-looking man in his forties sitting at the table in the middle, there was no other figure.

When his eyes fell on the man, a trace of surprise flashed in Sunan's eyes.

In his perception, the vitality in the man's body was vigorous and surging, as if he was in his prime, making it hard to imagine that this was an "old man" over 130 years old.

Obviously, Evans was far from the end of his life.

"I've heard of you for a long time, Lord Sunan, thank you for agreeing to my request for a meeting."

Evans stood up and smiled, pointing to the seat opposite.

"Mind having a drink with me?"

Sunan nodded, came and sat down opposite Evans, with two glasses of beer on the table.

From the color, it was just the most ordinary beer in the tavern.

Sunan had no intention of drinking, and asked directly: "What does Lord Evans want to see me for?"

Evans didn't care, and said with a smile: "I want to make a deal with you."

"What deal?"

"I know that the royal family will lose this war, so I come to ask you to keep some blood for the Kessler family. In return, I can provide clues to the Starry Tower."

Starry Tower?

Sunan's heart skipped a beat, and he was really surprised this time.

He never thought that Evans was looking for him for this matter, and he didn't expect that the other party actually had clues to the Starry Tower.

Thinking of Evans's identity as a royal bloodline, Sunan had a vague understanding in his heart.

"The Tower of Stars is indeed related to the royal family."

Evans smiled slightly: "You can say that."

"In fact, the wizard who built the Tower of Stars was the ancestor of our Kessler bloodline."

"Why then?"

Sunan didn't finish his words, but Evans already understood his doubts and shook his head with a wry smile.

"Although the ancestors left us the key to enter the Tower of Stars, those who enter must have the qualifications of a wizard or become a three-ring legendary knight. Unfortunately, after so many years, only I, a member of the royal family, have met the conditions to enter the Tower of Stars."

Sunan raised his eyebrows and said: "So you can still maintain a strong vitality now, is it also because of the Tower of Stars?"

"That's right." Evans admitted frankly, "I passed the Knight Trial of the Tower of Stars and got a bottle of Dawn Potion, which extended my life by almost one third."

The lifespan of a three-ring legendary knight is about 120 to 30 years, and an extension of one third is 160 to 70 years.

And because of the high physical strength and the infiltration of elemental power of the legendary knight, the body will always remain in peak condition unless it is the last few years of life.

It's no wonder that Evans' vitality is so vigorous.

According to him, he can live for at least another thirty or forty years.

However, a potion that can extend life by one third is at least a fourth-level potion, which is already a field that only formal wizards can access.

The Tower of Stars is indeed the inheritance of a formal wizard. You can get such good things just by the reward of the Knight Trial.

"What is in the Tower of Stars?" Sunan asked curiously.

Evans shook his head with some shame and said, "You need to pass three trials to enter the Tower of Stars. I am not strong enough. I only passed the first trial the first time and failed the second trial. I was lucky the second time and barely passed the second trial, but I still failed in the third trial. I was teleported out after taking the reward potion. From beginning to end, I couldn't enter the Tower of Stars, so I don't know what's going on inside."

"Can you enter the Tower of Stars multiple times?"

This is the first time Sunan has heard of this.

"As long as you meet the entry conditions, you can try as many times as you want."

"However, the Tower of Stars only appears once every twenty years, and each time only lasts for two months. During this period, everyone has only one challenge opportunity. Once you fail, you can only wait another twenty years."

Sunan frowned secretly. He didn't expect that the Tower of Stars would have such a restriction.

However, the Tower of Stars is a wizard heritage left by ancient wizards. The original intention is probably to leave a little hope for those with wizard qualifications in this elemental desert, so it makes sense to have strict restrictions.

"Where is the Tower of Stars?"

"I don't know." Evans shook his head, "The Tower of Stars does not exist on the Starlight Continent. Only when it appears can I sense its location with the key, and the place where it appears every time is random."

Not on the Starlight Continent?

That means it is in a certain dimension.

Maybe it is a half-dimensional space opened up by a formal wizard.

In this way, it is almost impossible to find the location of the Tower of Stars before it appears on its own initiative.

Sunan sighed a little disappointedly, but soon cheered up again.

In any case, we finally got the clue of the Tower of Stars, which is undoubtedly good news.

However, although he was happy, Sunan did not relax his vigilance. He looked at Evans and said, "You traded the key of the Starry Tower with me just to let me keep a little blood of the Kessler family?"

Evans showed a complicated expression, sighed and said, "I don't like fighting by nature, I prefer to travel around. To be honest, I am very opposed to political struggles and wars. If possible, I don't want to care about this matter at all."

"It's just that I once promised my brother that I would help the Kessler family to keep a trace of blood when the Kessler family is in danger of destruction."

"In the current situation, even if I ask you to let go of the current Grand Duke and his heir, I think you won't agree, right?"

Sunan's face was calm and he didn't answer, just as a default.

Cutting the grass and eradicating the roots is the quality that any qualified overlord should have.

At the beginning, Marquis Jinyan and Owen died because they didn't kill Keyi and Sunan.

Key personally experienced this series of things, so it is naturally impossible for him to repeat the same mistakes and leave himself with huge troubles.

He will certainly get rid of the Grand Duke and all the royal bloodlines that may directly threaten his ruling position.

Of course, if Sunan asked, Keyi would agree, but Sunan did not intend to do so.

Seeing Sunan's thoughts, Evans finally gave up the last glimmer of hope and stopped testing him. He said sincerely:

"So I only ask you to leave some blood for the Kessler family, even if it is a collateral line."

Sunan said without denying: "I have another question. You are not weak, why don't you try to fight back? Why do you admit defeat to me so easily?"

After hearing this, Evans couldn't help showing a strange expression.

He seemed to remember something, shook his head and said:

"Forget it, I don't want to die."

"You wizards are a group of tricky guys, with endless means and trump cards."

"I was already very surprised that Oviju could kill a wizard."

"But even Oviju died at your hands. I don't think I can be your opponent. Instead of struggling to death, sacrificing my life, and dragging the entire Kessler family to perish together, it's better to make a deal with you."

"Wizards believe in the principle of equivalent exchange. In my opinion, the Star Tower should still be attractive to you."

Su Nan raised his eyebrows: "You know a lot about wizards."

"I have traveled abroad in recent years and have had intersections with several wizards. I know a lot about wizards from them." Evans shrugged and said.

"Oh?" Sunan immediately became interested, "Where did you meet them?"

Evans smiled and said, "Is this part of the deal?"

Sunan pondered for a moment and nodded, "Okay, I promise you."

"As long as you give me the key to the Starry Tower and tell me the information about those wizards, I can guarantee the next member who has the blood of the Kessler family and is no older than five years old."

Evans was excited: "Deal, but you have to sign a vow contract!"

"It seems that you really know wizards."

Sunan looked at Evans deeply, but did not refuse.

Signing a vow contract is also good for him, which can ensure that the information Evans tells him is true, especially about the Starry Tower.

As long as there is a creature with a soul, they can sign a vow contract.

It took a while for the two to sign a vow contract.

The moment the contract was reached, Evans showed a relieved expression on his face, as if a burden had been lifted.

It seems that he really rejects this kind of thing.

Come to think of it, if there is Evans, the three-ring legendary knight, as long as he is willing to stand up and support the royal family, there will not be so many ambitious people in the Principality of Stars in recent years.

A sufficiently strong top combat force is no less than a stabilizing force for a country!

After that, Evans took out a stone from his arms and placed it on the table in front of Sunan.

"This is the key to enter the Tower of Stars."

Sunan picked up the stone and looked at it carefully. It was actually a stone carved into the shape of a talisman. The material was a bit like jade. It felt warm and slightly cool in the palm of his hand.

The surface was covered with dense enchantment runes. The mystery and complexity were so profound that even Sunan, who had reached level 4 in [Magic Item Manufacturing], felt dazzled and difficult to understand.

It can be seen that the person who made this "key" had many times higher attainments in the field of [Magic Item Manufacturing] than him.

"At least it is level 6 or 7."

Sunan thought secretly.

"I entered the Tower of Stars forty-eight years ago for the first time, and the second time twenty-eight years ago, so the next time the Tower of Stars appears should be twelve years later."

Su Nan stroked the seal stone, glanced at Evans, and said with a playful look: "You have more than one key in your hand."

Even if he had promised his brother, he didn't believe that Evans would be willing to give him the only way to enter the Tower of Stars.

If someone really values ​​family affection so much, he would not be so cruel as to sacrifice others just to preserve a little family bloodline.

Evans laughed and didn't admit it, but the answer was self-evident.

Su Nan didn't ask any more questions, but brought up the topic just now.

"Tell me about the wizards you have met."

Evans nodded and said slowly:

"In fact, I have only met three wizards in total."

"Two of them were met in the Cangjin Empire and the Jinghua Principality. Although they did not say it clearly, I could see the noble manners on them. Those two people were most likely from royal families or noble families."

"The third wizard was met in the underground world."

"Have you been to the underground world?" Su Nan's eyes flashed with surprise.

"It was also a coincidence." Evans recalled, "I tracked a very rare beast during a trip, but I got lost in the mountains and accidentally entered the underground world. I was attacked by a very scary monster. Thanks to that wizard who saved me."

"He said his name is 'Traveler'."
