I ascend to the throne of God with arcane magic - Chapter 597
Li Si controlled his clone and moved towards the direction of the City Lord’s Mansion.
The City Lord’s Mansion was extremely quiet under the night sky. Li Si observed outside for a long time and found no signs of human activity.
Although the exterior looked relatively bright, it was like a haunted house that had been neglected for a long time, lifeless.
Because this exploration used a spiritual clone, Li Si did not let the clone enter stealth mode in order to determine whether there were any exploration measures in the City Lord’s Mansion.
He just walked through the street carelessly.
Until he approached the edge of the City Lord’s Mansion, Li Si’s clone did not trigger any defense and warning measures, and was not attacked either.
Although Li Si felt a little strange, he did not stop and continued to control the clone to approach the City Lord’s Mansion.
Until he touched the rock wall of the City Lord’s Mansion, Li Si did not find anything wrong.
“Strange”
Li Si frowned and controlled his clone to use [Wall-penetrating Technique] to enter the City Lord’s Mansion.
Passing through the thick wall, Li Si entered the residence of the highest authority in this small town.
Li Si controlled his clone to look around. This seemed to be a room for storing sundries.
A small part of the room was filled with tables, chairs, wooden ladders, and cleaning tools such as brooms and mops.
Li Si touched the table with his right hand and looked at the light dust on his fingers.
This level did not seem to have been cleaned for a long time.
After all, it was a utility room, and it was normal not to take care of it for a while.
But Li Si always felt that something was wrong.
As he entered, the dead silence of the city lord’s mansion became stronger and stronger.
It was as if no one had been here for thousands of years.
From the chat with Old Milo, Li Si knew that out of respect for the city lord, the residents of Yihailes had their own decisions.
In other words, basically no residents would come to the city lord’s mansion to disturb them.
Except for the annual Gul Festival, the city lord Yihailes would not appear in front of the residents at ordinary times, let alone issue any orders.
But no matter how you look at it, although this city lord’s mansion is only three or four stories high, it covers a considerable area.
In order to maintain the daily operation of this city lord’s mansion, dozens of servants were needed before.
You can’t let the legendary wizard do it himself, right?
But now the city lord’s mansion looks like there is no breath of undead residents like old Milo, let alone living people.
Is the legendary wizard Yihailes really staying here?
Or has he always been near the Golden Coconut Hotel?
Li Si is not sure.
In any case, this city lord’s mansion does not look like the base camp of a legendary wizard.
Li Si has checked it just now. There are no early warning and defensive magic circles set up in this city lord’s mansion.
Even simple spells such as wall penetration can be released directly without any interference. It is not as good as the magic workshop built by low-level wizards, let alone compared with the wizard tower covered with various forbidden magic circles.
Even human nobles who do not possess any extraordinary powers will spend a huge price to invite wizards to come and arrange protective measures when building their own castles. There is no reason why the legendary wizard would be so careless.
Although the abilities of legendary mages are powerful, they are basically fragile and are very afraid of being approached by professionals of the same level, or facing sneak attacks from assassins of the same level.
Li Si’s situation is just a special case.
Even if a mage professional is promoted to a legend, there will not be much change in this aspect.
Not to mention Li Si, even a bronze-level professional can come and go freely in this city lord’s mansion.
Li Si stood in the corridor of the city lord’s mansion, observing the situation on both sides.
A few rays of bright moonlight fell from the window of the corridor, sprinkled on the dark blue ground, bringing some brilliance.
But in the corridor where the moonlight could not reach, the deep darkness was like a greedy abyss, hungry and wanting to devour any life.
Li Si thought for a moment, and controlled the clone to directly use the exploration spell.
It would take too much time to search such a large city lord’s mansion bit by bit.
It is better to use the exploration spell to find clues directly.
If there is really any problem, it is just a clone anyway, and Li Si has a chance to get away.
After a moment, Li Si received the feedback of the detection spell and frowned slightly.
Just as he had noticed before, there were no humans or undead in the entire City Lord’s Mansion, and there was no trace of any extraordinary power.
It was just like an ordinary building.
Li Si was silent for a moment, and directly controlled his clone to use the [Fireball Spell] and smashed it towards the window beside him.
Bang!
The sound of the fireball explosion mixed with the sound of broken glass echoed throughout the City Lord’s Mansion, just like throwing a stone into a calm lake.
But what puzzled Li Si was that although the fireball spell caused a lot of noise, it did not cause any reaction.
The entire City Lord’s Mansion was like dead, without any feedback.
Shouldn’t it be?
Li Si scratched his head. He didn’t expect this situation.
Before, when he was preparing to attack Zhuo in the Golden Coconut Tavern, Li Si really felt the legendary wire.
That must be correct, and it couldn’t be the influence of any legendary props.
This Li Si can still tell clearly.
Exploring the City Lord’s Mansion was a decision Li Si made after much consideration.
He was ready to make trouble, so he left a space mark on Taiya when he left the room, so that he could take Taiya out of this secret place immediately.
As a result, the operation of testing Zhuo, which was originally thought to be harmless, attracted the legend.
The highlight of the exploration of the City Lord’s Mansion, but nothing unusual happened.
“Strange”
Li Si was a little confused about the thoughts of the legendary wizard Yihailes.
Could his base camp be somewhere else in the town?
Li Si guessed, controlling his clone to walk towards the place he sensed.
That was the largest room in the entire City Lord’s Mansion in the information fed back by Li Si’s spell.
He was going to see the situation there, and he couldn’t go there in vain.
A moment later, Li Si came to the center of the City Lord’s Mansion, pushed open the heavy door, and walked into the hall.
A somewhat strange scene appeared in front of Li Si.
This is a magnificent hall, the space is high and deep, as if it was once a place for grand noble banquets.
However, in stark contrast to the luxurious decoration of ordinary banquet halls, this place has abandoned all the complicated carvings and gorgeous utensils, showing a different kind of simplicity and solemnity.
Under the towering dome, the moonlight sprinkled on the ground through the sparse window lattices, adding a bit of mystery and tranquility to this empty space.
To Li Si’s surprise, on both sides of this hall, rows of solid wooden racks stood like loyal guards.
Some racks were neatly arranged with shining armor, some were brand new and unused, with a smooth surface like a mirror, reflecting the cold light; some were covered with traces of battle, cracks and dents telling the bravery and sacrifice on the battlefield in the past, and the faintly visible dark red marks on them seemed to be dried blood silently telling the story of the past.
On other racks, there were a variety of weapons, lying there quietly, but they seemed to contain inexplicable power and stories.
The long sword is extremely sharp, and the tip of the sword flashes with cold light; the long spear is upright, and the shaft is as straight as a pine tree, revealing an unyielding will; the bow and arrow are elegantly hung on the rack. Although the bowstring is not fully stretched, the power ready to go can be felt; the heavy hammer and shield are side by side, the former is heavy and powerful, and the latter is solid and reliable, and seems to be the most reliable guardian here.
In Li Si’s view, the whole hall is like a living weapons and equipment collection room. Every weapon and every set of armor seems to carry the dust of history and the glory of the warriors.
In this hall, there is no luxury style of the nobles, but there is a bit more iron blood and killing.
Li Si looked at the weapons and equipment on both sides, walked up to take down a long sword to feel it, and shook his head with some disappointment.
Although these weapons and equipment look quite good, they have no extraordinary power.
It’s no different from a useless stone, Li Si can easily crush it.
It shouldn’t be like this, and why there is such a collection room on the territory of the legendary wizard.
Could it be that Ihalus has this special hobby?
Or is it related to that?
Li Si’s sight stretched out to the end of the hall.
In the deepest part of this ancient and mysterious hall, the light became dimmer, as if even time slowed down here.
Li Si’s eyes passed through rows of weapons and armor, and finally fixed on the bluestone throne on the deepest steps.
The throne was towering, and its backrest extended upward like a mountain, several meters high, giving people an unattainable sense of majesty. It was engraved with simple mountain and river patterns, intertwined and entangled, as if it was the embodiment of the earth and the storm, implying power and conquest.
In the center of these simple patterns, the pattern of a long sword was clearly visible. It was quietly embedded on the back of the throne, and the hilt was engraved with delicate thorn patterns, and it seemed that the sharp edge could be felt.
Sitting on this throne was a skeleton.
The skeleton sat on the throne, still maintaining the majesty and composure of a king, as if calmly welcoming the arrival of death.
His head drooped slightly, and his empty eye sockets seemed to be staring at the entire hall.
And on the chest of this skeleton, there was a long sword, and the hilt was wrapped with thorns, but the style was exactly the same as the long sword on the back of the throne.
Li Si came to the throne and looked carefully at the skeleton in front of him.
The skeleton was as white as jade, and there was no dirt or blood at all.
The whole skeleton was much taller than normal, and it seemed that it should be about two meters tall when it was alive.
Each bone was much thicker, which meant that the owner of the skeleton should have a very strong physical fitness.
When seeing this skeleton, Li Si first thought that this was the legendary wizard Ihalus, but soon realized that this guess should not be true.
It’s no wonder that Li Si thought so at the first time. The existence that can sit on this throne is very likely to be the owner of this building.
Perhaps because it has existed for too long, the aura of the skeleton in front of him is completely gone. Li Si can hardly judge the strength of this skeleton when it was alive.
But judging from the appearance of the skeleton alone, it should be a warrior or other melee professions when it was alive.
Of course, the possibility that this is a mage cannot be completely ruled out, but the probability is indeed very low.
And the numerous weapons and equipment in the surrounding halls can also prove this point.
But this is a bit strange. Isn’t the owner of the City Lord’s Mansion the legendary wizard Yihailus?
Why is there another skeleton sitting on the throne here?
And the surrounding weapons and equipment do not look like a wizard’s collection?
The City Lord of Yihailus is not Yihailus, but another warrior?
Then why did he die here, and the cause of death was stabbed to death by his own sword?
From the perspective of the stabbing of the sword, it should not be the skeleton who did it before his death, but someone else intervened.
Li Si looked at the throne and skeleton in front of him, a little confused.
The development of this City Lord’s Mansion was indeed a bit beyond his expectations.
Li Si checked the long sword inserted into the skeleton, and like the weapons placed on the shelves around, it did not have any special power.
Shaking his head, without finding any other clues, Li Si left the hall after noting the situation here.
Li Si explored the remaining special places in the City Lord’s Mansion, and did not find any valuable information.
This City Lord’s Mansion is really weird.
Li Si controlled his clone and used the flying technique to float above the City Lord’s Mansion, looking down at the entire City Lord’s Mansion.
After thinking for a while, Li Si controlled the wind element to form a pale blue illusory tornado, sweeping towards the City Lord’s Mansion below.
The pale blue wind soon enveloped the entire City Lord’s Mansion, searching for any place that might be abnormal.
Hmm?
Li Si’s eyes instantly focused on the back of the City Lord’s Mansion.
There was an open space that occupied a small half of the City Lord’s Mansion. There were no buildings on the flat land. It seemed to be a training ground, and behind it was a small and exquisite garden.
Clearly in Li Si’s perception, there was nothing here, but the pale blue storm he controlled disappeared completely after arriving here, as if it was swallowed out of thin air.
What’s going on?
Li Si was a little surprised.
If he hadn’t seen it with his naked eyes, he wouldn’t have noticed the abnormality here at all.
You have to know that the spells he used all contained his mental power, so that he could better control the spells and also play the role of detection and warning.
But this time there was no feedback.
Was the mental power also devoured?
But even if the mental power was devoured, I should have noticed it?
Or was there actually feedback, but I subconsciously ignored it?
If I hadn’t noticed it with my naked eyes, would I have ignored it like this?
Is it the influence of the illusion?
Li Si’s brain was thinking quickly, and at the same time he controlled his clone to fly towards the open space.
Soon, where the wind was devoured, Li Si touched an illusory transparent wall.
Sure enough, there was a problem!
