  "This key will grant you partial control over the second layer, where this crystal ball is currently located at the center of the simple instincts that control the Wizard's Tower. The magical energy reserves are already depleted and all magic is being drawn from these three small-headed men. Use it with care, or else they will all die. This is also something I do not wish to see." Xilang Oktos said: "Also be sure to defend Pailles Castle, accept those ransoms, as for the hostages, dispose of them as you please."

  After saying that, Xiran Oktō walked up the stairs in a void and slowly disappeared into thin air, apparently having gone to an even higher floor.

  A voice still echoed in the void: "If you want to know how to do it, just put your hand on the crystal ball..."

  The melon turned its head to look around the metal bookshelves, and it was clear that the crystal ball's greatest function was to control this library and transfer the knowledge within through some sort of mysterious magic into the minds of these three dog-headed people. Moreover, it continuously stimulated the dragon vein blood in their bodies, making their ability to control magic even stronger.

  However, this is obviously a way of pulling up seedlings to help them grow, and there are bound to be many hidden dangers, but it can properly respond to the current predicament.

  Gua looked at Tusi's face, which was suffering from the electric shock with no self-awareness, and stretched out his hand to cover the crystal ball. Suddenly, he felt like his head was being struck by a huge bell, and his five senses were lost. A strong shockwave hit him, shaking his eyes, brain, eardrum, and nostrils all at once. He felt dizzy and disoriented, as if he had drunk too much wine, but the dizziness was even more painful than that. Thin lines of blood slowly flowed from his seven orifices, like a small snake waking up from hibernation.

  It was during this process that Gua's consciousness became extremely clear, and he clearly knew everything that happened to him. It seemed that a certain acupoint in his body had been opened, and there was a simple and tacit circuit between the demon core and the crystal ball inside his body, allowing them to exchange various simple information with each other.

  A sudden realization rose from the depths of his heart, he knew that it was precisely because his own magical powers were insufficient that he had been affected by the crystal ball's magic backlash.

  A mysterious feeling surged into his mind, forming a figurative chart, and Guagua knew what it meant without being taught.

  A thick blue current flowed like a progress bar, which was obviously the progress of their knowledge being instilled. Guagua lowered the speed a bit, so they didn't suffer as much.

  On the other side, there were three test tubes with red contents that looked like blood. Guagua instantly knew that this was the degree of awakening of the three dog-headed people's dragon veins, as well as their current accumulated magical power. At this moment, their dragon vein blood only covered about one-tenth of the level at the bottom of the test tube.

  Slowing down the influx of knowledge, the accumulation speed of Longmai's magical power increased a bit, but the overall activation speed slowed down a bit. After repeated testing, Gua found a most suitable degree and adjusted it, no longer paying attention to it.

  He thought to himself that he had to find a way to freely go up and down from the second floor. At this moment, the crystal ball flashed once, and immediately a spell and a gesture appeared in his mind. Combining it with the key given by the great magician Xilang, he could freely open the light pillar leading to the first floor. From this light pillar, he could freely go back and forth between the first and second floors.

  Magic is truly a wonderful thing, and for an instant, even Gua felt that magic was more convenient than the technology he knew in his previous life, and it could even rival the skills of the demon race.

  But there's no time to indulge in these things now, Gua has important things to do, he must guard this castle well and take care of all the people who still depend on him.

  The great wizard Xilang is right, if this castle cannot be defended, all of these people will die.

  And for Gulu, this is also the only opportunity to come into contact with advanced civilization in Beidi, and he cannot afford to fail in any way.

  During the exchange with the crystal ball, Guagua felt that the undigested Frost Ice Toad Demon Core seemed to have undergone some changes. His blue beard had grown a bit longer and his internal magic power had also changed, but it was not time to check yet.

  As soon as I took my hands off the crystal ball, all those charts and spell teachings in my mind disappeared, and what was before my eyes returned to reality.

  He held the iron key around his neck, following the method taught by the crystal ball, reciting incantations and making gestures with his hands. Originally, he thought it was a simple spell to cast, but he had to do it three times before succeeding, then exited from the second floor and returned to the first floor.

  On the top of the tower, Xilang was constantly observing Gugu. When Gugu used the key, his eyebrows involuntarily twitched and he smiled to himself, saying: "I knew you had magic power, but your acting skills are really good, even I was deceived."

  "Don't you know the real reason I came here? It seems that after everything is over, you can't stay... Let me think about how to deal with you..."

  Back to the first floor, as Gua Gua had expected, Harry and his group were already gone. Gua Gua ran outside the mage tower and saw that over 300 dog-headed people were gathered in a messy heap. At this moment, Frenzy Axe was selecting his team members from among them. He chose those who were slightly taller and stronger-bodied dog-headed people.

  Valley Melon rushed over, fortunately, Tuo Ba and others had not been taken away by the crazy axe, he quickly selected all the small dog-headed people captured by the Stubborn Stone tribe, which was seventeen people. Then, he also chose those dog-headed people who looked slightly smarter, so there was no conflict with the crazy axe, and the two of them each selected fifty people without any problems. The remaining dog-headed people continued to build barracks around the mage tower under the supervision of Ice Claw, for these dog-headed soldier to live in.

  Possessing the complete martial arts knowledge from his past life, teaching a few dog-headed people was no problem. Gu Yan led these little dog-headed people to the other side of the Fa Xiang Tower and began to teach them.

  Apart from Tu Duo and Tu Ba, Guagua also selected three dog-headed people who looked good in all aspects from the dog-headed people he had chosen himself, and appointed them as Shi Chang. He divided these fifty dog-headed people into five teams, first lining up in rows, Shi Chang knew the names of the team members, Guagua knew the names of Shi Chang, announced the discipline, and initially established order.
