In a situation where no one was in control, this kind of thing naturally caused Chuck Weiss and the others to be in a state of chaos. Everyone wanted to know the reason why the Magic Tower would do such a thing on its own.
Until someone who was more observant noticed that the center of the image was the caravan responsible for transporting supplies that had just left this morning. Of course, the original Tower Master, Guebrach Lin Tripwood, was among them.
And after the Magic Tower changed its observation mode several times, it could roughly see the group of people lurking in the darkness. Armed with weapons, they were advancing towards the fortifications in the center of the city. In any case, this didn't seem like a friendly greeting.
In other words, this was still a conspiracy against the original Tower Master. After finding out how long the other party had left the tower, the conspirators decided to pull out a team and directly kill the original Tower Master with real swords and guns.
Otherwise, there was no way to explain why a group of bandits would surround a pile of carriages without supplies. And professional bandits could roughly guess the value of the goods from the depth of the tracks of the wheels, including whether the carriages were empty or not. And how much courage would it take to rob the Society of Sorcerers' caravan?
To insist on explaining that the target of this group of people wasn't the original Tower Master was like insulting one's own wisdom. And the hidden rules of the Magic Tower that weren't told by the original Tower Master were still protecting the original Tower Master.
This wasn't a rule that would be canceled when the authority of the Tower Master was handed over. Chuck Weiss had become familiar with the rules over the past few days and learned that the previous Tower Master liked to target individuals or groups when he designed any rules, not a specific position or authority. So the Tower Master's identity was the Tower Master's, and the rules of the Magic Tower still protected whoever it protected.
Should he really be like his other good friend and ask how to cancel the protection hidden under the complicated program code? That would be no different from telling the other party: I'm going to use this tower to kill you. As the target, it didn't seem difficult to decide whether to make the first move or to obediently stretch out his neck to be killed.
As for using the Magic Stone to Remove or something, it was no different from destroying the tower, so he didn't consider it. Besides, he and his teacher had never thought of dealing with the original Tower Master.
Moreover, the group of people who did it, as well as the conspirators behind them, had neither righteous nor honorable reasons. They were completely the product of greed and seeking death. If the Society of Sorcerers had to protect such people, or help them get rid of a Sorcerer who was full of wisdom and mystery and had great potential in the future, then the Society would have been destroyed long ago.
"Chuck." The friend who was hostile to the original tower owner asked, "Is there any way to interrupt the spellcasting of the magic tower?"
"Well, the document didn't mention anything about that. As for our spontaneous interruption, to be honest, I don't even know the casting circuit of this tower, so how can I interrupt the casting? "
"Then take out the Stone of Removal and remove the uncontrollable program of the entire tower," the person who spoke said anxiously.
"Hmm, why? In the future, we will have to rely on this tower to fight against the Abyss. I don't think it's right to cripple him like this. "
"Cut the crap, I said hand it over! Don't make me repeat myself! "
The friend who appeared fierce but was cowardly at heart stared fiercely at Chuck Weiss with red eyes and several magic lights on his body. As the apprentice of the chairman and a man who had also received the title of Great Sorcerer, of course, he was no stranger to battle, nor was he timid. However, it was rather surprising that the opponent was his friend.
Seeing Chuck Weiss looking at him with a playful expression, the anxious person cursed, "Damn it." Then he silently cast a few auxiliary spells on himself and strode forward. He stretched out his right hand, which was covered with a layer of magic light that imitated his forearm. This was his specialty and had always been successful in battle.
At this time, Chuck Weiss was surprised that his friend really dared to attack. At the same time, he prepared to counterattack, but he had already lost the initiative. However, a beam of light shot down from the ceiling and instantly ended the battle that hadn't yet begun.
The spell that his friend was so proud of was not as good as he boasted, with dual functions of attack and defense. Under the cutting of the beam of light, the arm was cleanly cut off. Before blood could spurt out, a second and third beam of light cut open the body of the attacker. From the top of the head, from the shoulders, from top to bottom, the person was cut into several pieces.
Although he had seen another "good friend" die under such an attack. It was still very shocking to see it with his own eyes. Chuck Weiss rubbed his chin with some stubble and murmured, "This set of automatic attack mode of the Tower of the Great Sage isn't completely useless."
After saying that, Chuck Weiss looked at the others who also called each other friends. Perhaps their friendship wasn't as good as he imagined, and there were still some schemes behind the scenes. Disappointed? To be honest, not at all. Or so he thought, these hidden dangers erupting early wasn't a bad thing.
Sensing the gaze of the current Tower Master sweeping over them, most of the people subconsciously took a step back. Some of them even raised their hands in front of their chest and said, "Hey, Chuck, old friend, you know I'm loyal. You saved my life once, and I haven't forgotten this favor even now. "
"Heh, I understand." With a meaningful chuckle, Chuck Weiss swept his gaze over the others. Before he could say anything else, a person standing in front of the main surveillance screen shouted, "Hey, everyone, come and look. This person looks so familiar, who is she? "
Someone shifted the focus, and everyone was happy to put aside the awkwardness in front of them and gathered in front of the main surveillance screen to recognize the familiar face on the screen. It was a valiant woman with some freckles on her face and a ponytail. Now in the screen, she wore dull armor, her eyes were sharp, and she walked silently in the night.
"Isn't she …" The person who spoke wanted to say something but stopped, because everyone recognized who the woman in the screen was. She was the Mage who had just died under the attack of the Magic Tower, a highly skilled female Warrior under his family, and also one of the women that the deceased loved.
Now that she appeared on the surveillance screen and was locked onto by the Tower of the Great Sage's program, the result was self-evident. Chuck Weiss only said, "What a pity."
In the screen, the Association's carriage team that was surrounded discovered the enemy. This guard team was made up of Warriors directly under the Association. Not only were they experienced, but they also had all kinds of magic props provided by the Association. That was why they could discover the enemy in the dark and avoid the predicament of being attacked at night.
However, the disparity in numbers caused the members of the escort team to look a little flustered, and even a little desperate. But they still relied on the empty carriages and set up a defensive array.
Knowing that the opportunity for a surprise attack had passed, the people in the encirclement no longer carefully hid themselves. They formed a tighter formation and surrounded the carriage team in the middle from several directions.
The horn to attack and the roars to kill sounded at the same time, and hundreds of strong Warriors began to charge. At the same time, the automatic program of the Tower of the Great Sage also launched an attack from the alert state.
The sorcerers in the nuclear chamber had no idea what was going on outside except for the images captured by the surveillance cameras. The Arcane Eye at the top of the Tower of the Great Sage, on the other hand, had already turned around and looked at the ambush site at night. At the same time, the magic circuit at the top of the tower glowed with an ominous red light, which shocked the Mages outside the tower.
At this moment, the people in the tower were staring at the image observed by the Arcane Eye that was dozens of meters away. And the moment the Tower of the Great Sage's program notified them that the attack had begun, they silently counted in their hearts.
In less than ten breaths, the attack had arrived.
The light bullets were like a torrential rain, and those who were hit were doomed to die. Many people looked at the huge holes in their chests in disbelief and collapsed weakly. But even more people maintained the expression of charging and died in a frenzy.
Hundreds of experts were all killed in one breath, and no one was spared.
Looking at the surveillance screen, although the people were mentally prepared, witnessing the power of the Magic Tower with their own eyes still made them speechless.
In the campsite, the expected battle was over before it even started. The night attackers all died in their charge. The dense light bullets fell from the sky and accurately exploded everyone's chests.
When the surrounded guards saw this scene, they should have rejoiced at the fact that they had survived the disaster. But in fact, they looked at each other and didn't know what had happened.
The two young apprentices had similar expressions. It wasn't that they didn't know the power of the Tower of the Great Sage, but they didn't expect to be so far away from the tower and still be within its protection range.
And the former Demon King, who saw the power of the Magic Tower for the first time, was more curious than surprised. She lifted the man who was wrapped in a thick cloak with one hand, and this action frightened many people who were paying attention to her. But a certain Lich didn't care at all. She grabbed Lin by the back of his collar as if he was a cat and asked, "What's going on?"
The man who was shaken awake by a certain heartless Lich wanted to curse. But even when he just opened his eyes in a daze, he knew that he couldn't win, so he could only swallow it. Faced with Fen's question, Lin yawned and said, "They're all dead. You don't have to wake me up for such an obvious thing, do you? "
Fen grabbed the man and turned his face to her. She asked again, "What's going on?"
"Yes." Looking at the pair of sparkling eyes, Lin knew that he couldn't sleep until he explained clearly. So he could only answer helplessly, "I have to start from the last time when the two little girls were injured by the vampires who invaded the tower. Before that, the activation of the attack had to be done manually. The accuracy was there, and it could effectively avoid accidental injuries, but the reaction speed wasn't fast enough. It wasn't easy to wait until someone was injured or held hostage to launch an attack. So, we simply designed the rules of the automatic attack as part of the magic trap. "
