Twenty Sided Dice

At breakfast, Earl Todd found Sir Bill. As always, Sir Bill is here on the training ground. But he didn't end up practicing swordsmanship today, but sat on the wooden barrel next to the weapon rack with his arms folded, quietly being a spectator.

Janet was on the other side of the field, while Siegel, another Baron, was beside his girlfriend, pipe in hand and a book spread out on his lap. He and Sir Bill looked across the field, looking up from time to time, but mostly reading. The middle training ground is occupied by two young men, one is Evan and the other is Kerry.

The two faced off against each other, and the fight was inextricable. In terms of strength, skill, and speed, the two have their own advantages. For a time, on the premise that the other party cannot be seriously injured, neither can win the other. In the past, Siegel would have rushed into the field excitedly, but now although his physical fitness is still there, he has preferred to use spells to solve problems rather than fists. On the contrary, Janet watched with relish, and gestured the movements of the two in her hands. She will learn to stealthily tomorrow, but be careful not to disturb Siegel beside her.

Seeing the Earl's arrival, Sir Bill took a dime of ale from the barrel beside him and handed it over. He took another glass for himself, and after toasting, waited for the count to speak first.

"The prince's complexion is still not good." When drinking, the count's expression seemed to be ten years older. His hair not only turned white quickly, but also fell off badly, like the melting snow outside, gradually revealing his baldness. the ground. "Although I don't want to admit it, there is very little hope that his body wants to return to its previous health."

"Is the Dawn Temple completely helpless?"

Earl Todd shook his head, everyone could see the loss in his expression.

"There is also a city that can help. Although those mages are not as good as the priests in treating injuries, it is said that they are also very skilled, and may be able to find problems that the priests can't."

"I hope so too." Earl Todd looked solemn and thought for a while. Then he raised his head and drank the ale in the horn cup. Then he also sat on the barrel and whispered, "How credible do you think what Baron Siegel said?"

"I believe in him," replied Sir Bill. "Not only in his character, but in his abilities. If not with full certainty. He will not tell you about spies through me."

"I didn't expect to be targeted before I set off. It seems that I want to rectify the order of the capital." In fact, the main meaning of Earl Todd is not this. He really changed the subject: "Do you think there will be a solution to the prince's current situation in Master Lier's prophecy?"

"I don't know," said Sir Bill honestly. "No one present can answer that question unless it is asked of the Master himself."

"If there is no problem with the intelligence, the Knox Common Club is really a group of conspirators." The earl gritted his teeth and clenched his fists: "Conspirators never end well."

"But be careful with them. Everyone knows that mages have great powers. I think it's better to tell the mages association in Xuecheng first. Only their own people can better deal with their own people."

Hearing this, the count moved. "Tiger. What do you think of your apprentice?" He sat up straight and said, "Will he be on the side of the royal family?"

"He's always on the side of the royal family, there's no doubt about that." Sir Bill nodded. "But there's no good reason, and he wouldn't go against Knox together. You can't pin your hopes entirely on him alone. "

"I know." The Count said, "I remember you mentioned when you reported to me that Siegel said that there is a way to restore the scene, maybe to see Master Lier's prophecy again?"

"He did say so, but it was our private communication, and he didn't ask me to report it to you." Sir Bill said, "But I think it should be reported to you without reservation, so as not to delay anything."

"You are an excellent knight, loyal and capable." Earl Todd nodded. "And you can teach a good student, which is even more valuable. But you still have a weakness that limits your development." He patted Sir Bill on the shoulder. Smiling: "Don't worry, the shortcomings are easy to make up."

"Mr. Earl, what is it..." Before Sir Bill's words were finished, Earl Todd walked around the training ground and walked towards Siegel. The young mage had already seen the situation on the other side, and he cast a spell to enhance the senses, and heard the conversation between the earl and the baron clearly. However, he still pretended not to know anything and greeted the count until the other party mentioned Master Lier's prophecy.

"I have a reasoning about this." Siegel closed the book in his hand. "If I were a mage of the Knox Common Order. I would not try to steal what Master Liel gave you, because no one Know what kind of magic mark there will be on it - if it is located by the master, it will be miserable. The magician who is proficient in prophecy is best at tracking and locking the target. The common people are not fools, and they will definitely not startle snakes. Likewise. They are also not sure what is written One is that the time is too late to manipulate the prophesied items. It takes at least ten minutes to determine what kind of magic enchantment is attached to the item, let alone modify the above content; the second is that the protective magic on the item may not be able to be broken. , as long as smart people don't gamble their success rate on it."

The count nodded as he listened. He had only some common sense knowledge of spellcasters and spells, and through Siegel's explanation he became more and more aware of the power of wizards.

"The Knox Common Masters I know are very good at spells that affect memory, so I guess if they want to know Master Lier's prophecy, they must take it from the reader's head."

"At that time, only His Royal Highnesses read the prophecy letter," said the earl.

"Yes, so if you want to know the contents of the letter, you must let me cast a spell on His Highness's memory."

"Are you so sure that you can find the true prophecy text in His Royal Highness's memory?"

Siegel nodded, "This involves the principle of reading and modifying memory spells. The real and original memory will not be erased, but only covered up, so I am 80% sure that I can dig out the truth."

"Will it cause harm to the prince's body?"

Siegel nodded and replied earnestly, "It's inevitable to have a headache for two days. Then either lethargy or insomnia, it varies from person to person. But I can guarantee a full recovery in three days. Also There will be no follow-up effects." He thought for a while, and then added: "Maybe you can ask Master Lier for advice. Or wait for the arrival of a more advanced enchanting mastery master, and you may be more confident that way."

"Master Lier is too far away, and I can't count on it for the time being." The earl said: "And the other mages are not loyal members of the royal family, and I don't know. Therefore, the current candidate is only you."

"I can help if you decide," Siegel said. "But I have one request, and it's about Janet. She's written off. Don't bother her again."

"The trouble your little woman finds those dukes has nothing to do with me... Forget it, I won't gossip with you and talk nonsense among the nobles. I agree to your conditions, what else do you need to prepare?"

"It's best to tell Pastor Cooper at the Temple of Dawn and let them take care of His Highness's body." Siegel said, "I'll make a magic weapon first, and then I can cast it at any time."

Earl Todd nodded and left. I don't know how he persuaded Pastor Cooper, but the Temple of Dawn finally agreed to this spell. However, they have prepared spells such as thinking about shielding, and are ready to cut off the magic of the mage at any time.

Siegel didn't care, no matter what. The spell did no harm to him. His Royal Highness, who was lying on the bed, slept soundly after drinking the sleeping potion, which was good for casting spells. Siegel placed the magic weapon made by Ezuki Shiroishi on the prince's forehead, and folded his hands over the stone. The sound of the mantra reverberated throughout the room. A golden beam of light emanated from Siegel's palm, covering the prince's entire head.

In addition to the Earl, Sir Bill, Evan, and Reverend Cooper were also nearby, their expressions were different, but they were all curious.

Memories of being spelled were different, and Siegel quickly found spell structures characteristic of Knox's common methods. If it weren't for their spellbooks, Siegel wouldn't have easily noticed these hidden spell traits.

"Knox is a sharp sword, use it carefully to make sure it only hurts the enemy; the Church of Dawn is a strong shield. Check patiently to make sure there are no cracks. Bring the dragon to help. The shadows go forward, and the stars will not die. The king will obey." You read very slowly, but clearly. "That's the prophecy you've seen, isn't it?"

"His Royal Highness once mentioned these words to me, which should be right." Earl Todd said: "He didn't read it at the time, and he burned the note after reading it, but he mentioned it later. Now you look for it. What is the true prophecy?"

Siegel nodded and began to gradually dismantle the memory curtain cast by the Common Club. Each hidden word takes over a minute, so the process is very slow. Earl Todd took a piece of paper and recorded every word he heard, and then the words appeared on the paper: "Beware of the Red Shadow Spire, chaos spreads from this; the golden dragon and the black phoenix have appeared, and they have The Kean Dynasty. Retreat in the face of plague, advance in the face of darkness, and live after death.”

The mage still did not stop casting spells, in order to prevent any omissions, he checked the memory of His Highness again. At this moment, he noticed another abnormal situation~www.wuxiaspot.com~ Although it was completely unrelated to Knox Common Club in terms of technique, it was still a "forgotten" memory.

He shifted the direction of the spell, focusing on this piece of memory. It can be clearly seen that this memory was produced very early, when His Highness was about four or five years old, he was still a child. In his memory, his father took him to a dark basement, the surrounding walls were full of dense runes, and the layered magic circle effect filled the entire space, and also slightly illuminated the place. There was nothing in the room, but a thin and small table was placed in the very middle, with a tiny thing placed on it. All the magic circles point to this table and the things placed on it.

"The Starry Kingdom will always be prosperous and strong," the king said to Prince Aaron, "as long as you can take care of him."

Aaron wasn't tall enough, so the king picked him up. The prince giggled in memory, thinking that the father was playing a fun game with him. But with the help of his sight, Siegel finally saw what was on the table.

It looks familiar, because it is a dice, the size, material and color are exactly the same as his own. The only difference is that it was a 100-sided die. (To be continued)
