Astartes of the Bear School

Chapter 1249 1221. Transmission Across Worlds

[Double Cross of Alzu] is the most famous and notorious spell of the wizard who created the group of demon hunters.

The huge monster [Drool Demon] he summoned under the double cross magic circle crushed half of the city of Maripo.

The outside world thought that this spell should be some kind of powerful summoning spell.

But on Lann's last visit to Kaer Morhen, the original stronghold of the witcher cult, he had received Vesemir's permission to enter the castle's oldest and darkest rooms to read the lore and wisdom contained therein.

With Mentos' integrated understanding and calculation ability, Lan not only successfully completed the various knowledge lost by the Bear School witchers when they split from the cult, including the witchers' alchemy of decoction, the advanced forms of the five sigils, and so on.

He also discovered with surprise and keen insight the true nature of Alzuna's famous magic -

[Alzu's Double Cross], this spell has no meaning when released independently, and it is not a "powerful summoning spell".

The basis of Alzu's spell system is his [Multiple Triangle] theory, which allows him to induce various mutant characteristics in living things in an uncontrolled manner, both good and bad.

He took advantage of the insects' large reproductive capacity and used [Multiple Triangles] on them at will, using quantity to create quality.

The excellent mutant characteristics that were born were integrated by him using the [Double Cross], concentrated on one goal, and finally created the powerful [Salivary Demon].

Arzu is not the master of summoning spells as rumored, but a master of biological transformation in the field of magic from beginning to end.

After realizing this, Lan En became very interested in the spell "Alzu's Double Cross".

Because 'integrating various biological traits into one individual' really coincides with his [Organ Enhancement] plan.

If he could understand this spell, it would be very helpful for his future surgical upgrade planning.

Just like it is now.

[The stomach of the Mist Nest Master Tyrannosaurus]. I'm afraid even Lan En has completely analyzed and understood this super organ.

But without the help of magic or alchemy, it remains a problem how this organ, which already has semi-spiritual characteristics, can adapt to one's own body.

"Analysis of spells and alchemy still needs to be carried out, but collecting [Knowledge on strengthening organs] is also necessary."

Lan emphasized his course of action to Mentos.

“Although there are many things to do, we must do them step by step and always move forward.”

"I agree with your idea, sir." The biochemical intelligent computer praised very flatteringly, but then changed the subject, "But your tone makes it seem like I'm afraid to move forward."

"I am just a helpless and busy biochemical computer. I don't have that kind of emotion, sir."

In the face of Mentos's pretentious sarcasm, Lan curled his lips but said nothing more.

The slices of stomach wall cut off by myself are stored separately in a preservation jar for future research.

Lan En cleaned up the laboratory quickly and went out to prepare for dinner.

It must be said that as Winder greatly expanded the scope of activities of the investigation team in the New World, weapons and Mountain Cat Pavilion also obtained more regional specialty ingredients.

For example, in the Miasma Valley, a place full of corruption and stench, the head chef actually discovered a special kind of rotten meat that is edible after processing and has a special flavor.

Just like stinky tofu, hairy tofu, or canned herring, this exotic taste, once launched, actually attracted the adventurous hunters, and many people did fall in love with it afterwards.

As for the categories in other regions, there are mushrooms in the ancient tree forest, cactus fruits in the big anthill wasteland, and terrestrial seafood in the land coral plateau.
When Lan En was eating, he was also a little surprised. He wanted to see what the chef would serve as today's standard set meal.

"Is it bird meat today?"

Sitting down in the empty seat in front of the stone bar where the chef was in charge, Lan En raised his eyebrows in surprise.

Because they have to deal with a whole base of hunters and scholars, the weapons and mountain cat pavilions prefer mostly high-yield seafood, or large pieces of dragon meat, poultry meat.
"Oh?" The chef, who also had a handsome one-eyed face, licked his paw and looked at Lan En in surprise. "You can tell the difference in the quality of the meat at a glance, meow?"

As it spoke, it scooped up a large piece of meat that was being fried on the stone slab of the bar and placed it in front of Lan En.

"Today, a hunter from the fifth group killed a poisonous bird not far from the base, and simply brought it back to eat meow."

"This is its big tongue. I heard you've been bitten by it before, right? Haha!"

Lan En shrugged. When he first saw the poison bird, he was suddenly startled by its tongue that could stretch to twice its body length.

The head chef also remembers this.

"Indeed, I've been tricked by it before." The young demon hunter said it seemingly nonchalantly, but before he started to eat, he seemed to mention it intentionally or unintentionally.

"Oh my! Chef, you just said 'meow' several times, right? That's so cute!"

The large Felynx, who had his arms crossed and his head held high, looking very proud, suddenly froze.

The head chef is the kind of Felyne who wants others to think he is handsome and dignified, so he even deliberately avoids his habit of saying "meow".

Lan En's 'counterattack' at this time undoubtedly hit the mark, and the 'praise' he delivered word by word at the end was even more of a critical hit.

The bear school is like this. Compared with the wolf school's constant stabbing, they prefer to defeat the opponent in one go. "Chef! Chef, what's wrong with you, meow, Chef!?"

"You can't give up, meow! Dinner time isn't over yet!"

Ignore the large Felynx that was looking depressed, and the group of Felynx kitchen helpers that were jumping up and down and shouting around it.

Lan began to enjoy his dinner with a smile.

Beside Lan En, Tishaya watched the scene with interest.

Lan's little bad taste seemed cute to her.

"We haven't seen each other for several days." As the cats behind the bar were busy, the demon hunter ate the tongue of the poisonous bird and said to the sorceress beside him, "Are you okay?"

"Don't worry." Tishaya held the solid wooden cup in both hands and drank the beer brewed by the investigation team. "The magic power you gave me last time is more than enough to meet my normal needs."

It was past the dinner rush hour, so she wasn't really taking up space.

"By the way, I'll return the beacon to you."

Tishaya placed the stone engraved with runes on the bar and pushed it towards Lan.

"Have you finished your research?" Lan En didn't hesitate, took it back, put it into the alchemical leather bag, and looked at Tishaya in surprise. "It's only been a few days?"

"Rita and I started researching this beacon when you first brought it to Aretuza. Do you remember?" Tishaya waved her hand nonchalantly. "It's just that this is a rare pure theoretical research."

Lan En was very interested in Tishaya's current lazy and relaxed posture.

This always strict and reserved sorceress was now leisurely drinking beer, with her legs elegantly crossed, sitting on the stone block in front of the bar.

This action shows off her plump legs and voluptuous waist and hip curves, making her skirt a little tight and fit.

So Lan En asked while eating: "Looks like you got something?"

"I already understand the magic on this beacon, but I need to go back and verify it with magic."

Tishaya spoke lightly about the incredible news.

Lan En couldn't help but smack his lips.

"The magic technology on this beacon is very complete."

"Using it, I think if I have enough magic power to support it, I can also receive or send messages to another world. If I am fully prepared, it is possible to open a portal across worlds."

Tishaya said calmly.

An ultra-small cross-world portal, this technology actually does not require a high level of technology to manufacture.

Just like the ancient deer-headed spirit that previously invaded the New World, it used a [Random Teleportation Spell] to throw itself here.

The real difficulty is to find a suitable world in the boundless chaos outside the world and allow your teleportation to anchor it.

The elven beacon that Lan obtained in the ancient Greek world undoubtedly opened the horizons of Tishaya, the most senior sorceress among humans, and served as a technical guide.

The cross-world teleportation technology that the elves of the Aiun Sidi had before their race's decline seemed to have real depth.

"It's more than that."

Tishaya placed the large wooden wine glass on the table with both hands, and her fingers casually rubbed the rim of the glass.

Her eyes followed her fingers, as if she was in a daze, or as if she was thinking about something else.

"Do you know the word sage, Lan?"

"I'm listening." Lan En was impressed by Tishaya's research during this period. He turned sideways and looked at her while eating.

[Sage], the ancient language pronunciation is Ain Savini, and the meaning of the word is basically a synonym for "warlock" in Lan's impression.

He really didn't know why Tishaya suddenly mentioned this term after this period of pure theoretical research.

"You think that Sage and Warlock are synonymous." Tishaya seemed to have anticipated Lan's understanding of the word. "But this is wrong."

This seemed to be a common mistake, so common that even Dishaya, who had been teaching for many years, was no longer surprised by it.

At this moment, she was speaking to Lan En beside her in the same manner as when she was educating a student.

"My dear, putting those two together is like a bonfire and a volcano!"

"It's as stupid as equating a new soldier with a grass root in his mouth with you witchers just because you both hold a sword in your hand."
