The most shameless alchemist in history - Chapter 188
Chapter 188 History of the White Tower
Although Du Lei has a thousand unwillingness in his heart, but at this time he can only follow Nono towards the Ash Tower, surrounded by withered trees, the ground is scorched, and there is even a swamp in front of it, and the swamp is filled with it. There was a rotten stench, which was disgusting.
It’s surprisingly quiet everywhere, where is the verdant appearance of the woods a little bit before, as if you have come to another withered world, and there is a smell here that Du Lei is familiar with, that is the smell of the dead, he is in the snow-capped mountains But many dead people were dug out from the snow.
“The Tower of Destruction? When was this tower built and what purpose was it built for?” Du Lei was not frightened by Nono’s words. When he passed through the swamp, he asked Nono about the Ash Tower. His history is quite interesting.
“When exactly was the Ash Tower built? It’s too old to be able to verify it. Maybe in the entire college, only the old dean knows. By the way, Winster may also know. Next time I see him. You can ask, anyway, it existed before the academy appeared.”
Nono didn’t conceal Du Lei, she roughly described the status of the Ash Tower, but she didn’t know the issue of age.
“Maple Leaf College has a history of more than three hundred years. In other words, did this tower exist more than three hundred years ago? Since it is called the Ash Tower, there must have been a fire in this tower, and There are also signs of being burned nearby.” Du Lei raised his head and looked at the tall tower standing in the distance.
The tower of ashes towers high into the clouds, and the whole body is charred black. Looking at it from a distance, the surface of the tower has obvious cracks, and the top is broken by the waist. Even a broken tower has such a height, then it has just been It’s hard to imagine how brilliant it looked when it was built.
Du Lei did not see this tower before, because the Ash Tower is located on the north side of the foggy forest. It is surrounded by heavy fog, and it is impossible to see its outline. Now it is sunny in early spring, and after the heavy fog has been dispersed, it finally revealed Out of its true body.
“It looks like you are not stupid. The Ash Tower has indeed been burned by fire in history, and there is a legend about the Ash Tower.” Nono affirmed Du Lei’s guess and also provided more information.
“Legend? What legend?” Du Lei asked immediately with interest.
“At the beginning of the construction of the Ash Tower, this tower was not black, but white. At that time, it was not called the Ash Tower. This was the name added to it by later generations. It was still called the’White Tower’ at that time.” Nono explained that she didn’t know the age of the Ash Tower, but she had heard the story.
“White Tower? How did the White Tower become the Black Tower?” Du Lei nodded and continued to inquire.
“Don’t interrupt, it’s too early for the White Tower to become a Black Tower. You should ask who the White Tower lives in.” Nuonuo gave him a blank look.
“Well, Mr. Nuonuo, who does the White Tower live for?” Du Lei couldn’t help her, so he could only follow her words.
“The White Pagoda was built by an ancient king for his daughter. At that time, the White Pagoda was very beautiful, white and flawless, and the same color as the white clouds in the sky. At that time, there were many people living nearby, and there was even one. The castle…” Nono opened the chatterbox and started talking.
“But Teacher Noono, you just said you didn’t know the Ash Tower… Oh no, didn’t you know the age and history of the White Tower? Why do you know so much now?” Du Lei asked suspiciously.
“Can I remember it? Why don’t you know how to be romantic? This is called artistic processing, you know?” Nono scolded again.
“It turned out to be artistic processing? Teacher Nanno, you continue.” Du Lei motioned to Nuono to continue speaking, and looked around.
“The little princess is very beautiful, just as pure and beautiful as the White Tower. She stands by the window of the White Tower and looks at the forest every day. She has been in the tower for too long. She yearns for the outside world like a bird in a cage. No matter how expensive the cage is, it can’t restrain the eager heart.”
Nono looked at the tall tower in the distance, her eyes were clearly black, but what appeared in her mind was the appearance of a holy tall tower.
“What happened later? What happened afterwards?” Du Lei knew that the story was about to come to the point.
“Although she stays in the White Tower every day, she is not alone, because she also has friends. Every night her friends will climb to the windowsill to accompany her, talk to her, and tell interesting things.” Nono continued to tell. .
“Climb to the window sill? Only half of the Ash Tower is left, but it still has such a height. Normal people can’t climb it so high, right?” Du Lei keenly caught the unusual place, and he looked at the Ash Tower. This half is more than 100 meters high.
“Yes, normal people definitely can’t climb this high, but if it’s a monster, it’s a different matter.” Nono affirmed this.
“Warcraft?” Du Lei frowned.
“Don’t forget that this is the gathering area of Warcraft. Even now, hundreds of years later, there are still a lot of Warcraft nearby, let alone hundreds of years ago.” Nono continued.
“That is to say… there is a monster that climbs to the tower every night and talks to the little princess. Have they…become friends?” He knew that there was indeed such a possibility.
“Yes, this lasted for a long time. It can be said to be the happiest time in the little princess’ life.” Nono was a little melancholy.
“What happened later, what happened later?” Du Lei knew that there would be a change later, otherwise the White Tower would not turn into a Tower of Ashes.
“Later, the little princess’s father, the king, noticed this. He blasted away the little princess’s friend, the Warcraft, and wanted to marry her. The little princess strongly opposed, but couldn’t disobey her father. “Nono said with a sigh.
“What’s next? Did the wedding happen?” Du Lei continued to ask.
“Later the little princess married and became the wife of a prince, but she was not happy after marriage, and the prince treated her badly, especially after the prince became a king, she became depressed when she was even more neglected. The widowhood began to fall ill and eventually died out.” Nono continued.
“That’s really not a happy story. Later, the White Tower will become the Tower of Ashes, the friend of the little princess…” Du Lei began to find some clues, knowing that the White Tower became so sure to be with the little princess. Friends of Warcraft can’t escape the relationship.
“You guessed it right. After the little princess passed away, her body was returned to the White Tower. On the day of her burial, her friend of Warcraft appeared. She was so distraught that she suddenly went mad and used the fire of anger to kill her. The entire tower was burned, and the white tower became what it is now.” Nono told the ending of the story.
