MTL - Overturned Tower-v2 Chapter 21 The Pride and Cruelty of Mages

Tuesday, May 9th.

It wasn't until nine o'clock in the morning that the inferior and the strangled had just arrived at Yongquan Island.

Unlike Sogo Island, which is next to Happy Island, Yongquan Island is basically the farthest empty island from Happy Island. They set off a day earlier than Russell, but arrived at their destination half a day late.

Those who are inferior need to go to Sun Island first, then transfer to Tongshen Island, and then transfer to an empty boat pad built on land—or, in other words, built on a clean island.

Afterwards, they took a ship from this isolated island to go to Yongquan Island.

——The dragon "Hudson" of Yongquan Island specially purified an island for the residents of Yongquan Island, and specially made it a port leading to Yongquan Island. And this island was named "Quanliu Island".

This small island itself is far away from the land, and it cannot become a **** battlefield for the tug-of-war between the two sides, so it has not encountered too serious spells and technological attacks.

Of course, the main reason is... the aborigines here have been wiped out by the mages as early as during the Islamic War.

And when Strangled told the story to the inferior, the inferior also raised a question in the inferior style: "How do you know these secrets? Is the news channel reliable?"

Strangling impatiently gave a strangling-style answer, "None of your business?"

In fact, this is the knowledge that Strangler got after meeting other mages while traveling in the dream world.

When the mages drove the mage tower here, they felt that it was a good place to stay. So they occupied this unnamed island.

Although the mage tower can always float in the air, it also needs energy - before the "mage tower" becomes a "floating island" and gets the dragon's heart as energy, its energy actually comes from all the people living on the mage tower. of mages.

Spells are a solitary force, maintained and promoted only by constant access to the dream world.

And if you don't enter the dream world for a long time, the spell will start to dissipate. And mages who live alone can maintain their power for a longer period of time.

When many powerful mages with close spells gather together, the spells they hold will gradually dissipate into the surrounding space, and the surrounding space will gradually bend...

It is like a coil that generates a magnetic field when it is energized. But this magnetic force is not generated out of thin air.

Because the "spells" obtained by mages are not actually stored in themselves, but a kind of "authority" to call resources from the sea of ​​subconsciousness of the group. This kind of authority allows them to extract power from the dream world...and if the authority they hold is highly unified, then these crowded forces will form a special space similar to a "funnel", and the power from the dream world will be It will continuously seep into the real world.

In fact, even if a powerful mage lives alone, this situation will happen, but it is relatively minor.

For mages who live alone, ordinary people around them will find that some "supernatural" things will start to appear around them.

This is the phenomenon caused by the rich energy in this field. Its essence is the power differentiated from the "unified spiritual energy" in the deepest part of the dream world, the sea of ​​group subconscious that "realizes human wishes". Some people's "wish" is captured by this dissipated energy, unconscious and one-sided realization. As a result, some "spiritual phenomena" appeared.

The mage tower is a giant device that utilizes and transforms the energy provided by this field to the greatest extent. Through long-term cultivation, this field is gradually solidified and permanent. Eventually, it can fly directly out of thin air.

But the mage tower can fly, but mages need to eat - they must have a supply point where they can dock.

As an isolated island far from land, it has quite dense vegetation and a complete ecological chain. The surrounding warm ocean currents can also bring many sea fish. It is well suited as a lighthouse, a sentry turret, to threaten the church angels attacking from the depths of the sea. So this mage troop descended directly from here.

Because it was already a time of war, the mages didn't have time to investigate the entire sky island. After waiting for a few months, they belatedly discovered that there were still some aborigines here who could not understand the language and were obviously backward in technology. In order to prevent these aborigines from being taught, will teach

The infantry of the society was stationed in the village, so the mages wiped them out.

Therefore, this island has become a "nameless island". Because the people who knew its original name no longer exist.

And when the battle became more intense, these mage towers deployed overseas gradually began to retreat inland. They again abandoned the occupied island.

But the carnage is even just the beginning.

After the birth of the Mechanical Angel and the reversal of the offensive and defensive trend, the church quickly realized the shortcomings of the mages and began to attack their supplies—that is, the villages that existed near the mage tower.

As the deaths and injuries of the mages began to increase, the power of the mage tower began to decline. The mages have mastered a technology that allows them to use some "brain" as fuel to expand the hole of the "funnel", thereby overdrawing the operation of the mage tower.

Those civilians faced only two futures.

Either they disobeyed the mages and were exterminated by the mages; or they obeyed the enslavement of the mages and were exterminated by the church.

This is why, the most tragic casualties in Islamic wars are civilians. Because the church really can't penetrate the protection of the mage tower, and facing the angel army, the mages will die as long as they leave the mage tower, so they can't take the initiative to attack.

The church can only win by cutting off supplies... So when the final war enters the final stage, it directly becomes where the mage tower falls, and where the missiles fall.

"... At that time, there were at least tens of thousands of aborigines who died on this island. There are also reports that it is hundreds of thousands. The specific information is not reliable, because the aborigines here have been exterminated..."

Hang Hang frowned slightly, and said in a low voice: "Their bodies were destroyed as garbage, and their brains became the reserve fuel for the Mage Tower."

Even a "noble mage faction" like him felt that the actions of these ancient mages were too cruel and crazy.

This incident also caused an uproar in the mage camp for a time-but the high-ranking mages didn't take it seriously. Because as they went deeper into the dream world, their personal abilities gradually became ridiculously strong, and they no longer regarded themselves as the same race as those "mortals".

That was the heyday of mage civilization.

High-ranking mages can modify their will and destroy their flesh as they wish; as long as they are prepared, whether it is bullets, shells or missiles, they can gracefully evade and resist, and can enter other people's dreams, and when others are asleep, Destroy their sanity. Even if the physical body is destroyed, the spirit body can enter the dream world and occupy an area to continue to survive. If you are lucky, you can also take away someone else's body and be reborn again...

It is even possible to move in space, go back in time, and bring the dead back to life.

Correspondingly, there are "psychics" whose natural awakening rate is less than one in 100,000 and who are extremely weak, and those "powers of the holy order" who are extremely weak, monotonous in type, and poor in performance.

Since the first mage war ~www.novelbuddy.com~ mages have claimed to be the kings of the world.

Nor are they mad simply because they are polluted by the "Shadow"... but because they see themselves as a "nobler race" through and through, and see the removal of other races as an "ecological Cleansing and Cleansing".

"My teacher thinks...one of the reasons why the mages were defeated was because of their trend of thought."

Hanging said in a deep voice: "From a macro point of view, the church's victory is not because the mechanical angels are strong enough... but because the spirits and dragons finally stood on their side.

"And it's not so much that the dragon chose the church, it's better to say...the arrogant mages drove the dragon away.

"The teacher has a saying that I remember very clearly.

"——When the mage civilization developed to its peak, the mages believed that those high above, powerful and wise, huge as mountains, monarchs,...maybe they were just puppets that could be enslaved."
