The Witcher: From the Academy of Knights

Chapter 130 Witchcraft Crystals
Looking at the metal box in front of him, Sauron had a thoughtful look on his face.

"The people of Baigu City don't know what's inside?"

Sauron asked.

"no one knows."

Kailo shook his head, spread his palms and said, "This iron box was originally hidden in a secret room in the castle, and even the housekeeper didn't know the existence of this thing."

"Where is the Bachelor of White Valley City?" Sauron pondered.

According to the tradition of the Duchy of Tar, although bachelors do not belong to the noble class, they are often the right-hand man of some lords.

For example, in Night Crow City, Frost, as a bachelor, almost has a status under one person, and is in charge of the city's affairs during the lord's absence.

Baigu City is no exception.

Now, with the death of Lord Dover, the Bachelor of White Valley City has become a very important figure.

"It's been caught."

Kailo nodded and said, "I'll bring him to see you now."

After all, Kai Luo ordered someone to bring the Bachelor of Baigu City over.

"Are you the Bachelor of White Valley City?"

Sauron looked at the Bachelor of White Valley City. The other party was a thin middle-aged man. Although he had been reduced to a prisoner, he still looked calm.

"Yes, I am Kafei, a bachelor of White Valley City."

The bachelor Kafei stood where he was, looking at the youthful Sauron, with a trace of complexity flashing in his eyes.

Once upon a time, the young man in front of him was just a young eagle, but now he has grown up and even destroyed Baigu City.

As a bachelor of White Valley City, although Kafei did not have the belief of living and dying with the city, after hearing the news of Dover's death, he began to consider his own fate.

"How do you plan to deal with me, Lord Sauron?" Kafei pondered.

"uncertain."

Sauron said indifferently, "It depends on how much you are worth to me."

"What does your lord want to know?"

"Where is the breathing method practiced by the knights of White Valley City?" Sauron asked straight to the point.

"My lord wants the Stormrage breathing method?"

There was a trace of surprise on Kafei's face, and he said in confusion: "As far as I know, the night raven breathing method inherited by the Swain family is of higher quality, and the angry wind breathing method seems to be of little use to adults, right?"

"Nothing to do with you."

Sauron said with a blank expression, "I came here to ask you to answer questions."

"Unfortunately, I cannot provide you with the Stormrage breathing method."

Kafei shook his head and sighed: "The anger breathing method inherited from Baigu City has always been mastered by the successive lords of Baigu City."

"And as far as I know, the Knights of Baigu City practice the Fury Breathing Method, which has always been passed down word of mouth, and the complete Fury Breathing Method only exists in the mind of the lord of Baigu City!"

Hearing what Ka Fei said, Sauron frowned slightly.

In order to keep the privacy of breathing method inheritance, there are indeed many families who will use various methods to keep it secret, and Baigu City seems to be the same.

"Pity."

Sauron shook his head. If it is true what Kafei said, the complete heritage of the Stormrage breathing method only exists in the memory of the lord of White Valley City.

So now, with Dover's death, the inheritance of Stormrage's breathing method has also been cut off.

"Forget it, it doesn't matter."

After a moment of regret, Sauron returned to his original state. Anyway, the quality of the Stormrage Breathing Technique is not too high, and it doesn't matter whether he can get it or not.

"Where's the key to this box?"

Sauron raised his head and kicked the special metal box in front of him.

"No keys."

Ka Fei shook his head, but seeing Sauron's expression was unkind, he quickly said: "It's true that there is no key, this box does not belong to Baigu City at all."

"A few years ago, a caravan from the Free City State passed by Baigu City and sold a lot of messy things."

"Among them, this box is included."

"When Lord Dover first got this thing, he thought there would be something good inside, but he couldn't open it after trying various methods."

"Later, Lord Dover threw this thing into the warehouse and ignored it."

Sauron frowned slightly, and suddenly his mind moved.

"Free City?"

He thought of Old Lyndon, the city of wizards, which was part of the Free City. If this metal box came from the Free City, then it might have something to do with wizards.

"Okay, you go down first."

Sauron waved his hand and ordered someone to take Kafei down first.

Sauron was the only one left in the room.

He looked at the box in front of him. The lock on it had a strange shape, and even the most skilled locksmith in Baigu City could not open it.

"try it!"

Thoughts flickered in Sauron's mind, he held the lock with his palm, and then injected magic power into it in the way of using a supernatural item.

click!
With the infusion of magic power, the lock made a light click, and the box was opened immediately.

"really!"

Sauron's eyes flashed. Since the way to open this box is to use magic power, it means that it is indeed related to wizards.

After opening the box, there was only one azure crystal inside.

It was a crystal similar to a Rubik's cube, with a liquid-like light flowing inside, and it looked full of fantasy style.

"This is... a witchcraft crystal!"

Looking at the azure crystal, Sauron's pupils shrank for a while.

Witchcraft Crystals, a must-have item for becoming a full-fledged wizard!

In the world of wizards, only real wizards can be called extraordinary beings, and both apprentices and quasi-wizards are under the extraordinary.

And when a quasi-wizard wants to become a wizard, he must first prepare a witchcraft crystal. Only by successfully solidifying a formal witchcraft and condensing the magic crystal in his body can he become a real wizard.

In other words, mastering a witchcraft is also the mark of a wizard.

Therefore, witchcraft crystals are of utmost importance.

According to the inheritance that Sauron had received before, he knew that witchcraft is composed of runes. Different runes, arranged in different ways, form completely different witchcraft.

The function of the witchcraft crystal is to record the arrangement of the runes of a witchcraft and the conditions required for the solidification process.

Picking up the witchcraft crystal in the box, Sauron's eyes flickered slightly.

Although he has not yet become a quasi-wizard, and there is still some distance from becoming a real wizard, but since he has obtained this witchcraft crystal, it can be used as an advance preparation.

You must know that in the world of wizards, the value of witchcraft crystals is extremely high, and even how many apprentices and quasi-wizards can hardly exchange for a single witchcraft crystal with all their wealth.

And for the apprentice class, the value of witchcraft crystals is even more difficult to describe in numbers, because it represents the opportunity for an apprentice to become a wizard.

Looking at the witchcraft crystal in his palm, thoughts flickered in Sauron's mind.

Immediately, he infused magic into the witchcraft crystal.

The azure crystal radiated light, and then began to rotate slowly. With a strange sound, it opened like a Rubik's Cube, revealing the inner scene.
