On the Seven Towers

"Let's put it this way. I am Xiao Chen, but not your Xiao Chen. I come from another world. Well... to be precise, it is the world before Xiao Chen came here, a similar parallel world.

I have a connection with your Xiao Chen that spans the world. I just felt that he was in danger. He seemed to need my help in a battle, so I came to this world to help him fight together. Later, during the battle with that energy, he was affected by The impact was greater than mine, so he passed out, and I temporarily kept this body for him to prevent him from encountering any danger when he passed out. This is what happened. "Xiao Chen explained the reason why he appeared here.

Xiao Chen's words did not make Roger and Evelin relax their vigilance at all. Instead, Roger slowly approached him, looked at his expression carefully, and said, "Yes, I know that you have the ability to travel through the world. But we still can't be careless, because magicians have too many strange methods, and you How can I prove myself?"

"This...I have to tell some Xiao Chen's secrets to prove myself, right?"

"That's right." Roger said.

"Okay, Xiao Chen is a high-level peak mage, good at spiritual magic." Xiao Chen said.

"This is not a secret, even the enemy will have this information." Roger said.

"Well, Xiao Chen likes Luo Ling in this world." Xiao Chen said again.

"Everyone in the entire Hebend City knows this," Roger said.

"Half the Elf Kingdom also knows." Evelin added.

"Well, I didn't expect that the world's information would be so developed, and I would become a public figure." Xiao Chen laughed at himself, and saw that the other two had serious faces, "Okay, Tower of Dreams, Sea of ​​Knowledge Shadow Scroll."

Xiao Chen said this vaguely, and Roger and Evelin finally breathed a sigh of relief. Roger said: "Now I can basically trust you. Tell me, how is your condition? How long will it take for you to wake up?"

Xiao Chen said: "I don't know his specific situation. I feel that although his life is not in danger, his mental strength has been severely damaged and he should need to recuperate slowly, and my time here is limited. If you have any If I need to do it, it's best to complete it within a day or two. According to his experience in coming to our world, how long he can take in another parallel world depends on the level of his mental power. My mental power is not close to high-level, I guess. I’ll come back as soon as I fall asleep.”

Roger said: "We are now in the empire. The situation at Blackwood Pass is very bad. I speculate that it was probably captured by the empire. We have to find a way to get through to the other end of the pass and then return to Suero. "

"What's your suggestion?"

"Let's go to the vicinity of Heimuguan first. If things are as bad as I expected, we will go over the mountain." Roger thought for a while and said, "What kind of magic do you know now?"

Xiao Chen said: "Although I am at the peak of the intermediate level of mental power, I have no chance to learn magic. However, my mental power can pick up objects from the air and poke people."

"In other words, you are a mid-level mage who cannot do magic?" Evelin said.

"It sounds weird to say that, but it's true."

Roger pointed to the storage ring on Evelin's hand and said, "Give him an elf sword."

"But Xiao Chen is not a warrior." Evelin followed the instructions and took out a slender and fancy elf sword.

"He is actually very strong, has good fighting talent, and has mental strength to help. If he slashes with a sword, ordinary knights and attendants can't chop him."

——————————

The three of them sneaked towards Heimuguan from the forest, and they met many teams searching for the missing mage along the way. They tried not to attract each other's attention, but because there was no magic to cover their bodies, they were avoiding an enemy team. When they arrived, they happened to bump into a five-person search team coming from the other side. Roger and Elena quickly killed four of them before the other party could react. But he didn't notice a fish that slipped through the net that was walking a little slower. Fortunately, when he was about to speak, Xiao Chen used his mental power to form a gun shape and stabbed it into his throat, preventing him from shouting. Then, he went up The previous sword broke his neck.

"How's it going?" Roger put his hand on Xiao Chen's shoulder and asked with concern. Xiao Chen's expression was quite calm, but his face was a little ugly.

Xiao Chen shook his head and said: "It's nothing. This is the person who must be killed, isn't he? Don't waste time, let's keep walking."

The three of them continued forward and began to reach the edge of the forest. Evelin signaled the two of them to stop, and then listened carefully to the surrounding movements.

"There are no people nearby. I only heard the sounds of some wild beasts." Evelin said: "They should be searching here from the direction of the camp. We should have got rid of them."

"Is this your life here? You have to fight the enemy every day, and you may be stained with blood at any time?" Xiao Chen asked, his voice was a little dry, and the relaxation in the previous conversation was long gone. .

"Being stained with the blood of your enemies means you are a lucky one. All the unlucky ones shed is their own blood," Roger said.

"Haha. This is a new world for me, and it will take some time to adapt." When Xiao Chen said this, the anxiety he felt after killing someone for the first time was actually diluted.

Roger said: "This is a world that revolves around war. Empires and kingdoms, empires and orc tribes, kingdoms and southern city-states, temples and temples, wizard towers and wizard towers, all kinds of wars have never stopped. Since I was a minor, everything I did was to prepare for war, practice combat skills, learn combat tactics, and train my own soldiers. I am happy to do so myself. I think it is a kind of pride and honor. What can better set off my bravery than the enemy's head? What can glorify the family more than conquering the enemy's city? I have always thought so.

Until I was defeated, captured, and sold as a slave. I realized that war is not only a ladder to success, but also a trap that can lead to disaster. I thought a lot in Suero's slave camp. Who am I fighting for and why am I fighting? The more I think about it, the more confused I am. When my family sent someone to redeem me, I didn't leave myself. On the one hand, I felt sorry for my subordinates, and on the other hand, I didn't know what I should do when I go back."

"But you are still fighting now." Xiao Chen said.

Roger nodded slowly: "That's because I followed you, or rather...followed him. He gave me a meaning for fighting."

"What is that?"

"To make our world more like your world."
