Astartes of the Bear School

Chapter 1611 1583. The whereabouts of the wizard

"It seems that things have reached a rhythm that you are familiar with."

Lan smiled at Cassandra.

As a mercenary in the Peloponnesian War in ancient Greece, although Cassandra generally helped the Spartan side, she was sometimes forced to do so by circumstances.

For example, a Spartan commander somewhere had an enemy with her, or his goals conflicted with hers.

That can only help the Athenian city-state to defeat Sparta.

She was very skilled at navigating the Peloponnesian War, doing things like what Berengar described.

It even includes, but is not limited to: assassinating military commanders, assassinating politicians in city-states, secretly collecting evidence on certain key figures as threats, etc.

At present, the historical process of the magical Middle Ages is roughly equivalent to the fifteenth and sixteenth centuries in the normal world, and there are additional magical technologies that are ahead of their time.

There is a clear generation gap between this and the wars in ancient Greece, the early days of civilization.

For example, the development of siege equipment, the development of various tactics and arms, and so on.

However, Cassandra's abilities are there, she only needs to adapt slightly to this generation gap, and the rest will still be easy to handle.

At the dinner table, the Greek mercenary [Falconer] received a mission regarding new equipment, which made her very motivated and excited.

"We were talking about wizards before," Lan En turned around and picked up the topic he had dropped before, "So what have the wizards been doing in the past six months? I mean the wizards on the side of the Talent and Skill Association and the Council."

"No wizard remains with Demave." The smiles on the sorceresses' faces faded, and it took a long time before they responded.

"The traitor Fecat was originally an advisor to Foltest. His betrayal made Foltest suspicious."

Margarita narrated very calmly.

"In fact, if it weren't for your relationship, I'm afraid Triss wouldn't have been qualified to attend the Temeria Royal Council we talked about earlier. The kings and wizards are experiencing a crisis of trust."

On the night of the coup on Thaned Island, Triss undoubtedly stood on the side of the northern wizards.

But that night was too chaotic, and many of the wizards at the meeting only saw one group of people arresting people, and then another group of people arresting people. Then there was fighting and massacre, and the Scoia's Party came to the island.
In the chaotic situation, the vast majority of wizards were actually bystanders who were not qualified to participate in the discussion, and everything they saw was chaos. Therefore, various statements emerged one after another, confusing the public.

As for the wizards who are qualified to participate in the discussion and execution, they are few in number and are labeled as untrustworthy. Whatever they say, others will first be skeptical.

Therefore, the entire coup on Senid Island became increasingly confusing amid rumors from the outside world.

The credibility of wizards also continued to collapse.

"The kings no longer trust wizards and have driven them out of the palace, but I actually feel a little happy about it here." As a traditional wizard, Tishaya showed a tiny sneer on her serious and rigid face.

"A few prominent wizards went to Kaedwen, but most went to Kovir and Hunvers. They chose neutrality. As you know, Lan, Esterad Thyssen, and Niedamir all chose neutrality."

"I know." Lan nodded. "What about Vigfortz? And the people who followed him and survived?"

“Vilgofortz is missing,” Eskel said coldly. “People thought he would appear in the lost Aedirn, as the governor appointed by Emperor Emhyr. But he disappeared without a trace, along with his accomplices.”

Vigfortz wanted to capture Ciri. Whether this was Emhyr's intention to gain the claim to Cintra and the Skellige Islands, or his own decision to go it alone, was unimportant in Eskel's eyes.

The girl was raised by them in Kaer Morhen for two years. Although she was Geralt's unexpected child, the entire Wolf School actually regarded her as the descendant of this group.

Therefore, his anger towards Viggofortz is understandable.

Viggo Fortz, a tough and dangerous opponent.

Lann remembered him vividly.

At present, it seems that this person is not completely loyal even to the Emperor of Nilfgaard.

"Tissaya, Rita, speaking of mages, I actually learned some 'little tricks' when I came back this time."

As if to ease the atmosphere, Lan En picked up a snow-white napkin from the table, and the two sorceresses present looked over.

Lan En spread the napkin flat, dipped the dinner knife in the sauce on the silver plate that had previously held the honey-glazed ribs, and quickly drew a spell on it that no one present had ever seen before.

After the last stroke was made, a slightly refreshing feeling spread out.

The reddish-brown, appetizing barbecue sauce glowed slightly with an earthy yellow hue at that moment.

But it was only for a short second, less than a second, and the light dimmed, and the feeling of peace of mind and body disappeared.

But everyone present was not an ordinary person. They were all certain that the feeling they had just experienced was not what ordinary people would call an "illusion".

Gerd and Eskel looked surprised: "What is this?"

Berengar looked down at the pendants on the necks of several witchers. They were so quiet that they looked like fakes made by a blacksmith.

So he muttered and concluded: "Without the fluctuation of chaos magic, is this considered magic?"

"This isn't magic in the strictest sense of the word."

When it comes to basic concepts, Margarita showed her professionalism as the dean of the academy: "At least it's not magic in the human sense. If we have to classify it, it should be classified as 'supernatural power of unknown origin' like priests and priests."

Compared to Margarita, who was more professional and experienced, Tishaya put down her knife and fork with interest and made a conclusion. "A new spell system?"

"You did not mobilize the chaotic magic in your body, but your mental and physical strength have been depleted."

"This kind of magic is called 'Yin Yang Magic'. Although the one I have is even evolving from Yin Yang Magic to something else."

As Lan En explained, he stood up, walked to the side of the box and pulled a chair to the dining table, as if someone wanted to join in temporarily.

Several people were confused.

Then the young witcher pulled out a white paper figure from the gap in his belt.

After a flash of light, a man wearing a complicated, wide, strange robe appeared in the room.

Abe Haruaki opened his eyes and was surprised by the Western-style room and the dishes on the dining table.

"Does this count as the magic academy?"

The Yin-Yang Master first bowed slightly to the strangers around him, then asked Lan En who had pulled out a seat.

"It's not the academy. We are meeting in a restaurant outside the academy."

Lan explained to him.

"The paper figure just now..." Tishaya was now very interested. She even tilted her chair over and looked at the alien wizard intently. "Is it similar to the transformation and sealing technique?"

The Art of Sealing is an advanced magic of this world. The sorceress [Coral] Rita Nid, who once sacrificed herself on Mount Sodden, was particularly good at this spell.

It encapsulates life into a small statue similar to a chess piece.

It is generally used to secretly carry certain people to certain places through secret channels.

Superficially, Abe Haruaki's transformation from a paper doll into a human form is very similar to this magic.

But in fact, it is completely different. After all, this Abe Haruaki is just the last Onmyoji in the life of the great Onmyoji.

"There is a huge difference. We can study it slowly when we communicate in the future."

"comminicate?"

Margarita asked with some confusion, but Tishaya smiled directly.

"welcome!"

"Seimei is my teacher of Yin Yang Jutsu. He is helping me perfect a very important spell framework. So basically, I invited him here as a spell consultant."

Lann explained Margarita's question.

"And my research is mostly conducted in Aretuza, so..."

Margarita nodded in understanding. "Welcome, Master Qingming. Aretusa has never had a spellcaster from a different system come to exchange ideas. We are honored for this."

This is a statement made by a college dean.

Tishaya once shared her insights with her students after her trip to the New World.

Although Margarita's level is not as high as Tishaya's, she lacks understanding of this level of perception.

But since we know that in the field of magic, the next research focus will be to understand the differences in alien environments, it is only natural to welcome exchanges with spellcasters from other worlds.

In fact, even if Qingming had not come to Aretusa, Tissaya's next step was to study the [Spell] system in Lan's hands as a way to expand his knowledge.

"What are they talking about?" Abe Haruaki asked Lan En in a low voice without changing his smiling expression.

"They are welcoming you. How is your ability to learn languages?" Lan En asked while he had time.

"Language? I'm quite confident." Abe Haruaki said modestly, "When I was learning Yin Yang magic, I spent a year learning Chinese. Recently, the Japanese archipelago has been interacting more and more with the southern barbarians, so I also took the time to learn Iseban in half a year."

Espanyol is actually Spain. During the Age of Exploration, the Spanish language was very common at sea.

Onmyoji are high-level, multi-talented people supported by the Japanese government.

For a top-level Onmyoji like Abe Haruaki, it is normal for him to have an outstanding learning ability, and it is not surprising that he knows several languages.

Seeing that Lan En was able to invite a spellcaster from another world, it sounded like he was a top figure in that spellcasting system, with a status similar to that of Tishaya.

Suddenly the two sorceresses became particularly enthusiastic.

Now Aretuza is badly damaged after the rebellion half a year ago.

Having such external aid can be considered a great supplement, whether it is academic research or anything else.

Abe Haruaki was also very polite and the atmosphere was very harmonious for a while.
