Age of Adepts

Chapter 1242 - Tower of War

When Grim and Billis first got out of the carriage, they were immediately struck by the magnificent tower in front of them.

It was magnificent, majestic, strange, and mysterious....

Numerous words of praise and eulogy all rolled over the hearts of both of them, turning into a hot torrent of emotions that ran through the body.

Looking at the tower's towering body shimmering in the warm and warm sunlight, the base of the tower is not a traditional cylinder style, but a thick and thin multi-bodied witch tower.

A number of bizarrely shaped huge rune stones covered with mysterious lines were floating high in the sky, floating along a strange path around the tower. The green-golden special material reflected golden yellow, deep blue, indigo, crimson and other strange illusions under the beautiful sunlight.

In the sky, a substantial rainbow bridge linked each of the separate towers, and the transparent light shield surged with an awe-inspiring amount of magical energy.

The main tower is connected to the secondary tower by countless air bridges and flying saucers, and is surrounded by countless small terraces, flower halls, and botanical gardens, all covered with a transparent light shield.

If you look down from above, those with good eyesight will be able to see shamans and apprentices moving slowly as if they were ants inside the mask.

Due to the no-fly boundary around the Overlook Tower, it was also forbidden to transmit without authorization, so one had to rely on one's own feet to reach the upper floors.

However, as a rank 4 Sorcerer, one could still enjoy many conveniences and privileges.

As soon as Grim and the others disembarked from the carriage at the entrance of the giant tower, a 20 meter square side of the floating flying saucer slowly landed.

"Let's go, Grim Wizard. Since you're here, why don't I give you a tour of the Sorcerer's Association!" That Horner Witch was extremely hospitable, though.

However, the torturing witch Olivia was clearly a bit impatient.

"You guys take your time going on the tour! I'm going to go settle a score with someone..."

With that said, her body exploded with a bang, bursting into a cloud of black smoke.

By the time the smoke cleared, Olivia's figure had disappeared without a trace.

"Come with me!" Horner stepped onto the floating flying saucer in a single bound, and Grim and Billis followed suit.

Without seeing how he drove it, the floating flying saucer shook lightly and already began to rise slowly.

There were countless sorcerers and apprentices walking hurriedly in the wide square around the tower, and they couldn't help but look up at the scene. And they had become smaller and smaller in Grim's eyes, gradually shrinking into a blurry little black dot.

It was no longer possible to see their eyebrows and shapes without attaching the Eagle Eye technique!

As the floating flying saucer rose, the people and objects on the ground became smaller and smaller, but those things on top of the Witch Tower that originally needed to be looked up to became close at hand again.

As the UFO ascended, a huge rune stone flew near them, allowing Grim to experience a powerful and perfectly harmonious energy system up close.

These Rune Stones should all be part of the Overlook Tower's defense mechanism.

The purpose of their existence was to constantly monitor any abnormal spatial fluctuations and energy reactions around the Overlook Tower. Once an abnormality was detected, the Rune Stones could instantly transform into a terrifying platform of fire to eliminate any possible intruders from the tower.

Although Grim had collected some knowledge about the Vigilance Rune Stones, the ones he had collected were clearly only 'junk' compared to the real Rune Stones in front of him!

And more importantly, these rune stones were not isolated.

On it, Grim could perceive a large and magnificent mysterious soul controlling everything. And these rune stones were merely some of the eyes and tentacles of its extension.

The Overlook Tower must have a tower spirit as well, and one with an extremely high level of intelligence!

The entire Sorcerer's Association headquarters looked serene and peaceful, an academic shrine and paradise. However, under the sweep of Grim's special elemental vision, there was a torrent of energy that ran through all the areas, a strand of crisscrossing energy threads, and a cascading, mutually obscuring energy force field.

If the Rune Stones were tangible, then these things were intangible.

The visible and invisible were stacked on top of each other to form a powerful defensive system that left no stone unturned and covered the entire Overlook Tower!

The floating flying saucer was traversing between these visible and invisible energy fields, coupling with the surrounding defense mechanisms every moment. The Horner Wizard's body was emitting a strange energy fluctuation, and it was thanks to this energy fluctuation that the floating flying saucer was able to pass through an energy force field and float between the forested sub-towers.

The floating flying saucer was still circling....

As he passed the edge of a secondary tower, the Horner Wizard casually pointed out with a light chuckle, "This is the breeding tower, where all the special witch beasts needed by the Association can be customized and cultivated on a large scale. Often times, the indigenous armies of the Otherworldly Conquest still need them to destroy..."

The exterior of this sub-tower was earthy yellow, and on top of the tower was a transparent elemental light shield. Through the light shield, Grim could clearly see the huge and expansive singular space within the tower.

With the support of the Strange Space Expansion Technology, the space inside the tower was clearly much larger than what could be seen from the outside. The inside was even isolated with a static light mask that created one small bizarre space after another, each filled with all sorts of bizarre beasts and terrifying demons.

A small ant-like black dot moved around the edge of the space, seeming to be some dedicated wizards responsible for monitoring and **witch beasts.

The floating flying saucer only passed over the breeding tower, and Grim had only a glimpse of its contents, unable to appreciate in detail the progress of the Sorcerer's Association's research in this area.

"Horner Sorcerer, I wonder what kind of process the Association has in place when dealing with the Secondary Plane?" Grim was so impressed that he couldn't help but take the initiative to ask.

"What, are you interested in that?" Horner chuckled, "Then I'll take you on a tour of the Tower of War!"

With that said, the direction of the floating flying saucer turned around and actually flew slowly towards another secondary tower in the distance.

The Tower of War was actually a 'small' witch pagoda that had split from the Overlook Tower.

It was small, but if it was placed in the Scattered Areas Tower Forest, it would still be treated as a large Tower.

The Overlook Tower was divided into a total of seven hundred and seventy-seven floors.

The base of the Tower of War was divided from the 136th floor of the Overlook Tower.

So when the floating flying saucer slowly descended on one of the air platforms of the Tower of War, it was already thousands of meters above the ground. Strands of white clouds were floating not far away from the platform, making the place look like a paradise on earth.

The air platform was not large, only a hundred square meters in size, and on it stood four metal puppets as tall as 5 meters.

When the floating flying saucer landed on the platform, one of the leading metal puppets emitted colorful and bizarre rays from inside the honeycomb-shaped hole in its head, while the remaining puppets stepped forward and raised their thick and heavy giant swords, entering a state of alert.

However, when the dazzling rays of the lead puppet touched the layer of strange energy fluctuations that haunted Horner's body, all alert mechanisms were revoked.

The several metal puppets returned to their original positions, transforming into a tall and powerful metal statue that did not move.

"Come on, I'll show you the interior of the facility!" Horner stepped onto the cobblestone path that led to the tower.

Here was already a thousand meters above the ground at absolute altitude, and the fierce plastic wind was whistling between the towers. Ordinary people walking through these cobblestone paths that were less than 5 meters wide with no skeletal support visible at the bottom would definitely be frightened and their hands and feet would be weak.

But for a high-ranking sorcerer like Grim, such a path was as calm and natural as walking on flat ground. They even had the leisure to look down on the surrounding scenery as they traversed the top.

At the end of the path was a fluorescent light door, perfectly separating the inside from the outside.

Accessing this place obviously required an extremely high level of authority, but it was obviously not difficult for Horner, who held the status of an elder.

As soon as the three of them arrived at the light door, three holes comparable to their size were pierced in the fluorescent light door. And as they stepped in, the light door quickly bridged behind them again.

Inside was a huge and spacious three-dimensional space, a metal platform floated staggered all over the tower, and a strange light door opened on top of each platform. And above each light door, a series of numerical numbers were marked out with eye-catching glowing runes.

"...There has been a moderate rebellion in the numbered JY0367 location, and a request for reinforcements has been received from the resident witch... Please 'Bat-Snake Squad' 'Prepare for battle...the latest transmission will begin in 25 seconds...'"

As soon as Grim stepped into this space, a clear and beautiful female voice could be heard within his ears, haunting the tower. Following that, a team of 11 Sorcerers emerged from somewhere in the tower wall and stood on a small metal floating platform.

A huge mechanical arm held up the metal floating platform and slowly moved around the tower, passing through countless platforms and light gates before finally coming to a halt in front of a platform numbered JY0367.

The team of heavily armed sorcerers moved onto the metal platform, stopping for a brief moment before entering the light door in an orderly fashion under the leadership of a lead sorcerer.

In addition to this instantaneous bit of teleportation, there were countless mechanical arms holding up metal floating platforms up and down throughout the Tower of War, with one or more sorcerer figures standing on each floating platform.

When they arrived at the light gate of the dimension they wanted to travel to, they took out a golden token and touched it, and the darkly colored light gate came to life. Once the light gate was completely stable, they too gradually entered it, never to be seen again.

"This is the Tower of War of our Sorcerer's Association, and each light gate corresponds to a sub-domain that has been conquered. By sending a request to the association, any sorcerer can easily cross the bitspace to another secondary plane for exploration and search. The loot obtained is also all yours... "Horner introduced to Grim with pride.

Grim swept his eyes away, his heart trembling slightly.

Just this piece of space that he had seen, there were more than four or five hundred light gates of all sizes....

The war potential of the Wizengamot is also evident from the fact that it is large and strong!
