Chapter 199 7 Magic Towers
Franky heard the urgency of the situation from Winterbourne Hill's words.
He did not interrupt the other party's narration. Although he did not know much about Sky Island, he was also aware that this matter concerned the entire magic continent.
“The Sky Island and the Magic Continent are now disconnected. In the short term, there is no harm except that the path to becoming the God of Magic will be cut off.
Even because there was a gap in the energy flowing from the Sky Island to the Magic Continent, some powerful beings from other dimensions were unable to find the path to the Magic Continent.
This is also the reason why, in the past few hundred years, there are very few god-level powerful beings from other dimensions entering the Magic Continent, or they are unable to stay in the Magic Continent for too long.
However, in the long run, it is more harmful than beneficial to the magic continent. Due to the existence of the dimensional rift, the elemental energy always overflows.
One day, the elemental energy on the magic continent will become scarce, which will lead to the gradual loss of magic rules. Once it reaches a certain limit, even legendary magicians may disappear from the magic continent.
By that time, no one will be able to resist foreign invasion, and the entire magical continent, humans and other creatures, will face a devastating disaster. "Hill said.
Franky's eyes became serious: "What can we do?"
"Of course there is a way, that is to reopen the passage to Sky Island and repair the passage between Magic Continent and Sky Island. But it is very difficult to accomplish this task. First of all, there is almost no hope of finding the location of Sky Island."
"Why? Don't you know?"
"In the past, when the Sky Island passage still existed, our group of magic gods could indeed go directly there. But in order to prevent the Sky Island from being found by evil, we had to cut off all ties with it. Now even we can't find its location.
However, there is still hope. As long as we find the Seven Star Magic Tower that has appeared before and gather the power of all the magic towers, we can accurately sense the location of the Sky Island. "
"Seven Star Magic Tower?" Franky opened his mouth slightly.
He had heard about the Seven Star Magic Tower because he had obtained the information when the Holy See shared information with their Imperial Magic Corps when they were hunting down Ryan Wood.
"Yes, there are seven Seven Star Magic Towers in total. They have a very long history on the Magic Continent. They were jointly built by the first generation of Magic God and the Sky Island Elemental King. Their existence means guidance.
At the same time, its existence is also to resist foreign enemies. The most outstanding magicians of all ages have been sent to guard the Seven Star Magic Tower to maintain the stability of the magic world.
500 years ago, we went to Sky Island to fight against evil. In order to prevent the magic continent from being attacked, we, the gods of magic, deliberately hid the traces of the Seven Star Magic Towers and exiled them to various corners of the magic continent. Every once in a while, they would change their location. This was to prevent them from being found by evildoers. "
"So you don't know where they are now?"
"Yes," Hill did not deny it, and then stared at Franky, "My power is running out, and I can no longer guess their exact location. But you, Franky, can."
"Me?" Franky was a little surprised.
"That's exactly why I sent someone to find you here," Hill said.
Franky was a little flattered. This matter concerned the survival of the magic continent, and he was actually a key role in it?
"Among the seven magic towers, there is a magic tower called Hertz, which is known as the prophecy magic tower. Only magicians who are proficient in prophecy can sense its location. As long as you find Hertz, you can sense the locations of the other six magic towers. And you, Franky, have this ability." Hill said.
"Then how can I predict? The art of prophecy did not come out of nothing. At least you need to know something about it, or have been exposed to it." Franky asked.
"I have a magic key to the Hertz Magic Tower here. You can use it to find Hertz's whereabouts. After finding Hertz and passing its test, you can become the new tower keeper of Hertz. I wonder if you are willing?" Hill asked.
"I..." Franky was stunned by the question.
Although the excitement has gradually subsided at this moment, there are some things that cannot be let go just like that.
He also held an important position in the Caesar Empire, and becoming an imperial magician was the proudest thing in his first half of life.
He now possesses power and status, and he has thought about continuing in that position.
However, at this moment, he was a little shaken.
It has nothing to do with power and status, but with the future and destiny of the entire magical continent.
The former God of Magic chose him and placed high hopes on him. If he does not take on this responsibility, can the God of Magic still wait for the next person?
Franky recalled the past scenes in his mind.
He had wondered why teacher Sadie Maya, who had saved him from danger, was so furious because he had killed several people;
I also thought that even though his ability had reached that of a mage, his teacher, who was his guide, did not recommend him to go to the magic tower;
I also thought that the teacher had the legendary Jenny Murphy behind him, but he was unwilling to even introduce her to him.
Until the Imperial Magic Corps extended an olive branch to him and promised him everything he wanted, he resolutely left his teacher and became the powerful chief.
On the contrary, the fugitive criminal Ryan Wood, who committed numerous crimes, was trusted by his mentor Sadie Maya and was given the inheritance. On what basis did he do that?
Until this moment, he realized that his journey of magic seemed to have always been very utilitarian.
He did it not for the people of the world, but for himself.
On the other hand, Ryan Wood, despite being charged with crimes, was able to destroy the Vatican and tear off the latter's hypocritical mask.
He may have done it for himself, but he saved the world.
That's the difference between him and Ryan Wood.
In the first half of his life, he had obtained everything he wanted; in the second half of his life, as he stepped into legend, should he choose another path?
What kind of person is expected to be when becoming a Maya teacher?
Hill did not interrupt Franky's thinking. He saw that the other party was in a state of confusion. Only when he thought things through clearly could he take on this important task.
Otherwise, even if Franky found the Hertz Tower, he would not be able to pass the test of the Hertz Tower in the end.
At this moment, the light in Franky's eyes gradually became firm.
He smiled with relief: "Your Majesty, I am willing to work hard for the future of the Magic Continent."
