Astartes of the Bear School

Chapter 1043 1025. Fort Rossgarh
Radagast's method sounds simple.

That is to let Lan En and the others adapt to the magic in this dark forest.

The magic of Mirkwood is very complex, and most of it is naturally generated magic.

The earliest inhabitants of this great forest included the elves of the Woodland Kingdom, who lived in the northern section of Mirkwood.

From what Radagast said, the elven race in this world seems to be extraordinary.

They come almost naturally with magic.

In the land they live in, even if they do nothing, they will naturally be infected with the power of magic.

Not to mention that for the defense of the Woodland Kingdom, the elves also released a lot of magic on their own.

Add to that the natural power of Mirkwood itself, and the evil, dark old castle.

The magic of the entire forest is now a complete mixture, messy, but really powerful.

Ordinary means cannot keep the entrants awake in this forest.

Even if a wizard personally leads the way, it is definitely not safe.

But the elves of the Woodland Kingdom and other native creatures living in the forest are basically not confused by these mixed magics.

Because they have adapted.

Radagast has a mission and cannot lead Lan through the forest.

But he felt that if Lan En and the others stayed in the forest for ten days and a half, they would be able to get used to it.

As long as he doesn't leave the forest, he can still take care of him in this little time.

"Even if it's just for Qilin and Velvet Ball, oh~"

As Radagast walked, he looked at the tall horse and cute kitten following Lan En, showing an intoxicated expression.

The sloppy old man showed a girlish look, which made Lan En and the three of them shiver in secret.

Forgive Lan for not having dealt with people like druids yet, but are they all like this?

At this time, they had all gotten off the vehicle. Radagast untied his wooden sled, and the seven or eight big rabbits also untied their reins.

Afterwards, they skipped away minding their own business, obviously looking like journeymen who were just going to relax after finishing their work.

This also shows that this area is the land that Radagast can influence.

"welcome!"

The old wizard opened his arms, and his dirty, tattered brown robes unfolded with his movement.

"Haha! Welcome to Fort Roosegar. It's been a long time since anyone came here."

The unicorn's bowl-sized hooves stepped on the soft grass, followed by the human boots and the claws of the Ellu cat.

It is no longer the sticky and moist humus in the forest, nor the fallen leaves in the process of decay, but the verdant grass.

Lan En looked around with a smile on his face.

It was said to be a 'castle', but to Lan En and the others, it looked more like a crumbling old wooden house.

It is almost three stories high, but like the Leaning Tower of Pisa, it is tilted to one side from the foundation.

The house is crooked, but the smoke rising from the chimney on the roof is straight.

The gaps between the gate and the roof are big enough for birds to slip right in. Maybe Radagast did this on purpose?

What's more important to Lan En's senses is the atmosphere here.

After determining that the atmosphere was the external manifestation of certain forces and tendencies in this world, Lan En paid more attention to this point.

Originally, in the dark forest, only a few spots of light could be seen through the dense canopy.

The dark environment makes people feel depressed, and even feels a little lack of oxygen due to the dense vegetation.

But in this woodland in Radagast, it is obvious that this guy has an unparalleled love for nature, and there is no trace of forest pruning at all.

But the lighting in this woodland is better than other places.

The ground is also fresh and crisp green grass instead of dreary humus.

A large swath of warm sunlight shone down, making the crooked wooden house and the surrounding environment look like a house in a fairy tale.

Just living here can change the environment. It has to be said that Lann looks at Radagast in a different light.

Following behind the sloppy wizard, the old man's legs and feet were very nimble and did not match the wrinkled old face at all.

"Are there many wizards like you, Radagast?"

Lan En asked seemingly casually from behind.

At this time, Radagast happened to pass by the roots of a big tree. There was a circle of mushrooms with fat umbrella covers growing around the roots. He squatted down and patted the umbrella cover with great interest, making a dull "bang bang" sound.

"A wizard like me? Let me think about it."

Radagast was playing with the big mushrooms while thinking. The velvet ball seemed to be interested in collecting them too. It ran to the mushrooms and looked at them curiously.

"Ah! Come to think of it, there are five of us in total."

Only five wizards in the world?
Lan En raised his eyebrows, looking a little surprised.

And there are only five wizards, so you have to react for a while before you remember that eating mushrooms is really ruining your brain, right?
"I'm wearing a brown robe, another one is wearing a gray robe, two are wearing blue robes, and the last one is wearing a white robe." Seeing that the velvet ball seemed to like mushrooms, Radagast quickly picked one off and let the kitten hold it. .

Seeing the cat holding a mushroom with an umbrella half as big as itself, Radagast smiled like an intoxicated aunt again.

"Oh!" Radagast continued to explain as if he suddenly understood Lan En's doubts.

"The five of us are serious wizards, but don't think that no one else knows magic. Those humans, elves, and dwarves are all good at magic, but they can't be called wizards."

Lan En opened his mouth, then closed it again.

If it weren't for the fact that the atmosphere around Fort Rosgar was truly unique in the Dark Forest, he would have been a bit doubtful about the worthiness of the wizard who had just carried a wand and when faced with a monster chasing him, he immediately chose to knock it instead of casting a spell.

Maybe that's the style.

"Ah! Are your family taking a walk?"

Radagast, who explained a little to Lan En, jumped up from the mushroom at the root of the tree, walked towards the side and lowered his head to ask.

There were three large, two small and five hedgehogs there, walking leisurely across the grass in a line.

Facing Radagast's greetings, the hedgehogs stood up in a very humane manner and waved to him.

It seems that many things in this world are born with wisdom.

The same goes for the rabbit who gave Radagastra the carriage.

Should we say, 'A world with a Creator God watching over it is rich'?

The witcher walked up to the sloppy wizard, and Radagast kept waving at the hedgehogs happily without even looking back at him.

"Great Immortal Hedgehog." He tilted his head towards Lan En.

"We are very good friends. Sometimes I give them some fruit, and in return they scratch my back. You know, as people get older, their hands and feet become less flexible, and some places are harder to reach. "

"Those thorns are quite comfortable!"

Lan En pursed his lips in embarrassment and nodded speechlessly.

The rhythm of Radagast's speech was very off-beat, and coupled with the large patch of bird droppings on the side of his forehead, he would probably be considered a completely crazy old man in the eyes of ordinary people.

Fortunately, Lan En boasts that he has seen a lot of crazy guys, and he can handle them completely.

"Come on, come in, friends."

Under the bright sunshine, I walked on the soft grass to Radagast's wooden house. He enthusiastically opened the leaky wooden door and invited me.

Fluffy Ball was full of curiosity, and he walked in with the big mushroom in his arms.

But Lan En and Qilin stopped at the door.

Each of their heads tilted towards the door, and finally pulled back in embarrassment.

"Uh" Lan En scratched his chin, "Radagast, it seems difficult for us to get in. Do you have any magic that you can use?"

There is no hidden world inside this wooden house. Its interior perfectly matches its crooked exterior.

Because the whole building is skewed, the usable area of ​​the wooden house, which already occupies a small area, becomes even more crowded.

There were many miscellaneous items scattered in the wooden house, including herbs prepared by the wizard, and many strange objects.

The only pieces of furniture in the house were littered with random things on the table.

Several mice were crawling up and down in the maze-like debris. Considering that this was Radagast's house, Lan En didn't think they were pests, but his friends or pets.

As soon as he entered the door, Radagast took off his hat, and three birds took off from the nest in his hair and resettled freely in the house.

"Spells? Hey, I'm not that handy with magic!"

The sloppy old man yelled casually, and at the same time diligently moved a stool for Velvet Ball.

And he shouted outside the house.

"Beautiful horse, please don't be impatient. Old Radagast will make you a big and comfortable hay bed outside the house!"

Just because you co-authored it, you don’t care about me?
Lan En held his forehead.

Fortunately, in the end, the flannel ball that wandered in with the big mushroom in his arms did not stay in the house.

It carried a stool outside and sat down with Lan En and Qilin.

Radagast had no idea, or maybe he just wanted to stay with these beautiful and lovely creatures that he had never seen before.

So I rushed out, smoked my pipe, and chatted with my new friends.

He took out a basket of apples to eat.

Lan En, on the other hand, was on the side, unloading his magic harness and relaxing amidst Qilin's complaining snort.

"Okay, let's talk about it carefully. What kind of accident can make you appear in the middle of the dark forest in a daze?"

Radagast asked as he smoked his pipe.

"I'm a wizard, but I've never heard of this kind of magic. It's amazing to be able to change people from one place to another out of thin air."

A wizard said that a spell like [Portal] is magical, which should be very inconsistent.

But Lan En, as a traveler who has traveled to many worlds, has seen many strange situations.
