The light of a portal appeared.
Gloria glanced at Søren gently, then nodded gently and said, "Come with me."
The two got up and walked into the portal. When entering the portal, Søren frowned slightly. The scene just now made him think of a lot of things. First of all, the Wizard Towers of the Northern Witch Council were all connected together. This was a huge maze with great power. Then, although Gloria was the owner of this Wizard Tower, the Eye of the North also seemed to have control of this Wizard Tower, and may have a higher control authority than Gloria.
This could be seen from the fact that she just casually opened the portal of the Wizard Tower!
In other words.
This Wizard Tower still belonged to the Witch Council, but it was managed by Gloria.
And it seemed that the Eye of the North had a strong control over the Witch Council, and she also had a strong prestige in Gloria's heart. As a veteran legendary witch who had been in charge of the North for hundreds of years, the Eye of the North's status and influence were quite amazing. If he could get her favor, it was basically equivalent to winning over the Witch Council, which was very important for Søren, who currently lacked strong allies. Another pirate king, Ashrod, was backed by the Naga Siren royal family, and the sea priest did everything for the church of the sea goddess. Søren needed forces outside the South Coast as his allies.
And it would not affect his strength in the outer islands!
Although it was just a very insignificant matter, Søren judged a lot of things and thought of another reason to invite Gloria.
The Wizard Tower of the Witch Council.
Although it was managed by Gloria, it was not her personal property after all.
…
The two of them stepped into the teleportation array.
Sure enough, as Søren expected, the Wizard Towers in the North were connected together, and they were basically connected by portals. When Søren came over, many members of the Northern Witch Council had gathered here. All of them were beautiful women, and it was difficult to judge their age from their appearance. Although there were high-grade male Wizards in the Northern Witch Council, all the ones who were eligible to enter the council were women. The status of high-grade male Wizards was similar to that of guests, but they could not reach the core of power.
In the face of Søren's arrival, the other Northern Witches were curious, but there was no hostility.
Many of them smiled and nodded at him and Gloria, and the witches greeted each other with a slight nod. The atmosphere was quite harmonious, and there was no sense of open strife or veiled strife like in other organizations. This meant that under the management of the Eye of the North, the members of the Northern Witch Council were quite united. This unity would immediately transform into a strong fighting force once they encountered other places. Therefore, when Søren saw the Eye of the North being looked at with respect by many witches, his evaluation of her in his heart could not help but improve a lot.
She was worthy of being a veteran Legendary Witch who had stood for hundreds of years.
Not only was she powerful, but she was also first-class in the way she controlled the council!
This kind of wisdom was worthy of respect, but Søren preferred the feeling of being in awe rather than respect. So he could never be loved and respected by others like the Eye of the North, but he liked to be worshipped and respected by his subordinates. It was hard to say which was better, but it was much more difficult to win respect than to win awe. Søren still liked simple and crude things.
"Sit down!"
The Eye of the North looked slightly old. In fact, it was inevitable that she would grow old at her age. She looked at the other witches with her white pupils, and then tapped the ground with her staff. When her eyes fell on Søren, the Eye of the North paused for a moment, and then said, "Be quiet! I know what you all want to know in your hearts. I'll tell you what happened now, and let you know why the Githyankis attacked us! "
A silver-white brilliance emerged.
A blade fragment about the size of a dagger appeared out of thin air in the palm of the Eye of the North. When the silver-white blade fragment appeared, everyone present felt a force in their hearts. Then they couldn't help showing a trace of surprise. They looked at each other and communicated secretly. Everything was inseparable from the word "artifact"!
Søren and Gloria looked at each other.
Although neither of them spoke, they could guess the meaning in each other's eyes.
That was, everything was for the artifact!
The artifact had incredible power. Although there were many artifacts in history, it was quite rare for them to fall into the hands of mortals. Looking at the equipment on Søren's body, it was clear that although he had fought for so long, the limit of his contact was only legendary items. The artifact was out of his reach, and at the same time, it was also quite fatal!
Because the artifact could be located by magic.
In front of them was an artifact, or a fragment of a powerful artifact. Even if it was just a fragment, they could feel the power contained in it.
And Søren also felt a strange aura!
It seemed to come from an evil god.
Among the people present, he was the only one who had this feeling, because the others were surprised. Only Søren couldn't help but frown. His expression was a little uneasy, a little disgusted, and a little repulsed. The artifact was naturally inextricably related to the gods, but the Silver Sword of Githyansk didn't seem to be related to many gods. In Søren's memory, it seemed to have more interactions with some evil gods.
"They're here for this!"
The Eye of the North looked at the others present, then raised her hand and cast an isolation light. She said to the others, "About 150 years ago, this thing fell into our hands, so I've been keeping it since then. There are still some fragments like this scattered in many places, but the two largest ones are kept by us and the Wizard City. "
"For so many years, we've been secretly studying its secrets."
"The Silver Sword of Githyansk was forged in a very ancient era. The Kingdom of Soul Suckers was another era of arcane prosperity that was not inferior to the Silver Age. So we've been trying to study some secrets from it, and the special divine power it contains. Unfortunately, our research progress is very slow, and some of the ancient knowledge has been lost. For more than a hundred years, we've only completed one and a half research projects. "
The Eye of the North made a gesture behind her.
Then they saw two witches with the same old face come out. They glanced at the other witches who were obviously much younger and took out two pieces of special silver-white metal.
The members of the Witch Council were elected once every fifty years. If they couldn't advance to the legendary level, they could only retire behind the scenes. The legendary witches could continue to be re-elected.
"Look!"
The Eye of the North raised her hand and touched the silver-white metal, then slowly said, "This is the first project we cracked, the secret of the Silver Sword of Githyansk. The silver metal can change shape and has a special memory ability. What you see with the naked eye is a silver flowing liquid, but in fact, its real side is a kind of powerful memory metal that can repair itself!"
"Legend."
"The high-level golems of the Arcane Empire could repair themselves, no matter how serious the damage was, they could not be completely destroyed. And they could change their shape on their own. Many great arcanists could transform them into a kind of weapon called [Advanced Magic Armor] to protect themselves. We have always thought that the material of [Advanced Magic Armor] has an inseparable relationship with these astral metals! "
The Eye of the North raised her hand and waved on the silver-white metal.
Then they saw a faint aura emerge, and the silver-white metal changed its shape automatically. First, it turned into the shape of a silver sword of Githyansk, then it turned into a beheading sword, then it turned into a pair of gloves, and finally it even structured into a toy model of about twenty centimeters high that was similar to the appearance of a steel golem. Such a change gave a strong impact to many of the witches present, and they could not help but be stunned one by one. Even Søren was a little stunned.
So high-end!
In the past, he also came into contact with the relics left by the Arcane Empire, but it was the first time he saw such a high-end thing.
"Although we have cracked some of the secrets."
The Eye of the North glanced at the others, closed her eyes and thought for a moment, then continued, "For example, its ability to change shape, the recovery ability of the memory metal, and the fusion of elemental energy, etc. But we have no way to use it in other places. At most, we can only imitate the Silver Sword of Githyansk, which is undoubtedly not of much use to us. "
"We lack the most core part of the knowledge."
"So this topic has entered a dead zone 30 years ago and has been sealed in the cutting-edge laboratory of the Witch Council."
There was a short silence.
The Eye of the North glanced at Søren and continued, "As for the other half of the topic, it belongs to the study of divine power. The Silver Sword of Githyansk once killed three evil gods, two of which were true gods with divinity, and one of which was a slightly weaker demigod. So this artifact fragment has always had residual divine power, and we tried to use it to crack some of the secrets. There are many secrets in this topic that can't be told to you. When you reach the realm of legends, you can come to me to learn new knowledge. "
"From today onwards, if any of you are interested in the research of the first topic, I will also open your access to this topic in the library."
"If there is no problem, everyone else can leave."
"Gloria."
"And your friend, stay. I have something to say to you."
