Wizard From Afar
Chapter 864
This is an event that dates back to the beginning of the earliest 11th generation.
At that time, the empire had just experienced extremely violent turbulence. At that time, the fear of the invasion of monsters in the north had not dissipated; Good poetry and literature, the unrestrained and iron-blooded empress lost her support from all over the world, she almost became the emperor and finally became the "apostate" duke; Otto I, who was "mean and ineffective" and even burdened with the suspicion of killing his mother and usurping the throne, quietly restored the empire that was almost broken in the hands of his mother, trade routes were cut off, and civilians were displaced.
He wants to compromise and negotiate with the dukes, he wants soldiers for food; he wants to restore the war-torn East Sackland to life, and he wants to give Eboden autonomy to borrow the free nobles and the Chamber of Money in the hands of Commerce; to ensure the status of the Torino family and strive for the stability of Byrne.
Alto I pleased everyone, and in the end no one pleased; I did everything, so I did nothing;
Have not built a palace, built a church, did not fight After a battle; no statue, city gate, library, or bridge had his name or relief; if it weren't for the 11th generation, the empire would have almost forgotten the emperor.
But for a certain alchemist at that time, none of this was his concern.
The Queen of Crazy Dragon died, and the Black Duke was ruined; facing the withered and broken empire, he was completely desperate, and he never wanted to pay more for this country that "betrayed himself".
It’s not yourself, the queen, or the duke that is wrong, it’s this world that is wrong.
So, he turned his gaze to the misty sea to the west-on the other side of the sea is another country.
The kingdom of the elves, the kingdom of Azores under the rule of Xiong Yingwang.
He set off with the ocean-going fleet, but the fleet actually failed to reach the Kingdom of Azores; so he figured out a solution for himself, and finally leaned on a small sampan and swam to arrive at an eagle called Yingxiao. The place on the island was rescued by an elf lord; he was hospitalized for a long time, fighting swords with him, composing poems and singing peace, talking and laughing...
So far, Loren has heard the content. But what's next is the real key point.
"After a period of time, the elf lord seemed to have a strong interest in alchemy and wanted to communicate with me in depth."
The spirit of the morning star forest settlement Inside the Tree house, Harimvan Ashmael sighed and continued: "I was very young at the time, so I agreed without thinking about it-after all, the other party saved me, not to mention that it was not an excessive request." p>
black hair wizard nodded, I agree.
Although the wizards of the empire always value knowledge more than life, the theoretical system between schools and even the Academy may be the difference between Heaven and Earth, but as long as it does not involve core research, "basic popularization" Still very keen...not to mention that the other party is a life saving benefactor.
"So after talking about it, I can say with confidence that the Azorean elves know almost nothing about alchemy." Ashamed tried to recall: "He was He has a sincere attitude and a hard-working study-in all fairness, at the age of the elven lord, his rate of progress can be called an extraordinary natural talent."
"But the fact is, Azores The elves don’t know anything about mysticism, ancient rune, alchemy, and spell studies-the level of understanding in this area is almost zero!"
What?
This time not only Ayn and Lucien, but even the black hair wizard couldn't help but eyebrows raised.
Only Peter Fasa seemed to have known something, and his eyes showed some indistinguishable complex emotions.
until now The Empire’s knowledge of the Azorean elves is very shallow, but the goods brought by ocean trade, especially luxury goods, can also get some clues-the country on the other side of the sea, in The achievements in literature and art are not inferior to the empire.
In textiles, pottery, metallurgy, forging, stone carving, etc., it even far exceeds the level of the empire.
In the fixed thinking of the empires, especially the wizards, the elves can reach this height, they must have alchemy that is much more advanced than the empire; even if the title is different, the development direction is different, sure It exists and is extremely prosperous.
But now Harimvan Assamah tells them that not only do the elves do not have the school of alchemy, they do not even have a wizard!
"At that time, I suspected that this was because the number of wizards among the Azores was too small or their status was too low, which resulted in the elf lord having no idea about them." Just listen. Shamai continued:
"But the truth is the opposite, there is indeed no-because it is not necessary."
"No need?"
"Yes , Your Excellency, it’s not necessary.” Ashamed was slightly nodded, and suddenly turned his gaze to the little wizard: “Ayin, you have been in Byrne’s wizard for so long, and you have also served as a mentor to teach new apprentices.”
"Tell me, how long does it normally take to recruit apprentices, and how many people can become at least qualified apprentices?"
"Well...at least, it takes two years Around." The little wizard groaned: "As for the proportion of people, it is usually between one-thirtieth to one-fifth, almost...wait, what do you mean?!"
In the face of the people who lifted the head almost at the same time, Ashamed was nodded again.
Loren's heartstrings tightened.
"Are you surprised? When I noticed this, I was even more surprised than you guys. Among the thirty empires, one has the basic innate talent to become a wizard; but for the elves, This is their innate ability."
"Any elves can dream, do not need to build a spiritual palace, do not need to understand the boring ancient rune, do not need a spell to master and use The equivalent to low-level magic spell level Void Power, this is innate, just like the instinct of using a tool by hand."
"Yes, they are not starting too low, but too It’s high; of course it’s not necessary, and it’s impossible to develop a theoretical wizard system like the nine-pointed star wizard tower!"
The low voice fell, but it was like an explosion in everyone’s ears. Thunder.
The black hair wizard lowered his head, staring at the ground blankly, without saying a word.
Ayin, who was immersed in shock, showed an expression that could not imagine this scene.
The gray-eyed boy stood silently by the door, holding the hilt of the sword at his waist-this was the only thing he could think of, what he could do.
The Azores did not develop alchemy because each of their craftsmen is an "alchemist", and there is no need to distinguish the two concepts of "scholar" and "wizard" separately.
This is a more difficult concept... to explain it in a simpler language, that is, the Azorean elves may think they live in a "non-magic" or "low-magic" world , Because their use of Void Power has been integrated into their lives without forming a separate system.
Humans have such an independent "system" because the level is too low, and the proportion of innate talent is very small.
This is really...
"The Azores did not create the'wizard' business, but it does not mean that they did not have another use of Void Power. System." Ashamed’s voice sounded again:
"Warrior System."
The gray pupil suddenly raised his head and opened his eyes vigilantly.
"Similar to Byrne’s Knight system, the nobles of the Azores had to learn the sword technique and bow and arrow techniques from an early age. The Elven Lord who saved me was himself a sword technique. The warrior, the sharp Azores sword in his hand, can even split the armor."
"Not only that, they use Void Power in a very unique way in the sword technique, some It's similar to'beyond perception' but completely different. It's very shocking; I don't want to exaggerate it, but..."
Halinvan Assama had a meal and looked at Loren and said word by word: "One The name is Azores warrior, in the case of foot battle and equal, can at least compete with four Byrne Knights at the same time."
Loren silently looked at him without interrupting.
"Not only that, the Azores is also a country with a tradition of'military force worship'; according to the elf lord, the more powerful the warrior, the more respected the status-cream of the The expert of crop can even be tied with Xiong Yingwang. "Ashamai sighed then said:
" And this warrior who can sever iron armor is precisely because of the clumsy sword technique. , I can only get an official position of defending the border islands."
"To be honest, I now hope from the bottom of my heart. This is really because he is too humble."
Lucien's pupils shrank suddenly.
Many times more powerful than slicing the iron armor. It is qualified to be alongside the king and wielding the Azores sword...
I really want to compete.
The black hair wizard is lost in thought.
"Master, why..." The little wizard said in confusion: "Why have you never mentioned this before? Why is the empire still nothing to the Azores until now? Do you know?"
"Why?" Haringvan Ashamai did not answer, with a bleak expression, and turned his helpless gaze to Loren with a wry smile.
"Because it is not necessary." Loren gave the answer silently.
Yes, there is no need.
Separated by the sea of fog, even the empire’s ocean-going fleet can only go back and forth once a year, and there are only two to three thousand men including sailors and escort mercenaries.
In other words, even if the Azores launch a full-scale war and a full-scale invasion, the army they can put in is only four or five thousand at most, and the only direction they can attack is the port of Eboden, and only a year once.
Even if they can fight ten each, with the strength of Eboden's homeland, they can also defend against the invasion of the elves, so there is no need to worry.
even more how, what can they get from the invading empire that has traveled across the ocean?
Wealth? Compared with such a costly expedition, how much wealth is not worthwhile;
Land? Not to mention whether they can control the occupied land across a sea of mist, even if they want to open up a colony, the next thing they have to face is the empire's siege from all sides, the lack of troops, and the internal rebellion, it is basically impossible to defend.
slave? Although it is not appropriate to say that, if they really want it, Eboden's Chamber of Commerce and ocean-going fleet can definitely find a way to satisfy them in exchange for the huge profits of ocean-going trade.
Such a costly, laborious expedition, destined to lose nothing at a loss, what kind of war madman can figure it out?
"Then...the irreparable mistake that the Master of Assama said..."
"I haven't really come into contact with the warrior system of the Azores, but... …"Ashamai gave a wry smile: "They should already have a good understanding of our wizard system."
"I guess, I may have accidentally exposed the actual war potential and level of the empire."
The black hair wizard sighed-when the Master Assama told himself about this, he thought it was just some private question...
"Also... if you come The spirit of the ancient wood forest is my benefactor. I think it would be against the duke to let him see me. You know, a person’s happiness is often based on the suffering of others; unfortunately, I and him. The happiness of a daughter and a niece are all weighed on the father and uncle..."
"Of course, from an alchemy point of view, this is very cost-effective, because we create Three times the happiness, but only one pain...but I guess he might not think so..."
"..." Everyone.
The room enclosed by "silence like water" is so quiet that you can even hear everyone's heartbeat.
"Half a year ago, Eboden sent a team to investigate the dead ocean fleet. It is said that they have a good eye."
When everyone was quiet, Peter Fashar’s The voice suddenly sounded:
"Although there is no conclusive evidence, they did find the Sea Territory where the fleet was killed. It is said that there was no bad weather on the day of the disaster, and There are no signs of hurricanes or waves."
"At least, in the tower of the nine-pointed star, wizards who are proficient in divination and astrology predicted this way."
"You Means to say..." coldly snorted Lu Sien asked.
"At the place where the incident occurred, they also found some debris from the ship." Peter Fasha ignored him, and continued to open the mouth and said: "Especially on the fragment of one of the masts. , I found the traces of being cut by a sharp blade."
"That is the main mast of the ocean-going fleet, the flagship;"
"By some unknown blade..."
"One cut."
The voice fell, and the room was quiet again.
Loren, frowning, looks steadily forward at Peter Fasza’s right hand; the trance-looking line of sight seems to have traveled through time, going back to a scene three years ago——
The night is as dark as ink, and on the sea where the rain is pouring, an elf warrior leaps up to the flagship deck with a knife; in the exclamation of sailors and mercenaries, panic footsteps, shouting and screaming surrounding him, Gently buckled the handle of the knife.
The sharp blade light unsheathed at the moment when the thunder exploded.
Plasma, gushing like ink; screams, one after another.
After a while, besides him, there was no second standing on the deck.
The elven warrior, who was alone, swung the knife to his side and returned to the sheath; the blood drop that fell with the knife drew a crescent-shaped half arc around him.
When I turned around, there was a neat cut on the main mast behind him, and it capsized in a whine.
"Bang——!!!"
The door was opened.
The nervous crowd turned their gazes to the direction of the door almost at the same time, and Peter and Assama did not forget to put on their hoods and pretend again.
"Sorry, didn't you bother you?"
The cold voice sounded from outside the door, and the expressionless female elf hugged her shoulders and stared straight at her back. To her black hair wizard:
"Chen Xing Lin veteran's order, they agreed to your request!"
