Chapter 482: Birds Meeting

Feuerbach transformed into an owl and flew through the Black Forest at an unreasonable speed. He flew quickly through the lush vegetation below and was about to reach the meeting place.

The meeting place was very conspicuous. It was an open space with a huge tree stump in the center. It was hard to imagine how tall it must have been when it was intact. Now all that was left were the remains with scorch marks and moss.

There were already birds of all colors waiting on the torn wood fiber sections. Most of them were owls that had violated their regular schedules and nodded humanely when they saw Feuerbach land.

The sun shines on the wood, and a shape gradually emerges in the glare. A snow-white swan descends from it, and it appears with a shadow. Soon the shadow also comes alive, and a black swan walks out. The relationship between the Tower of Light and the Tower of Darkness is quite entangled, but other mages cannot explain the details of the two.

Last to come were the ravens and gulls from Istani.

The raven held a bloody eye in its mouth and looked at the scene with a grumble. A large owl with fluffy feathers made a disgusted sound like Master Kano: "Thomson, your behavior is still so disgusting."

Most of the great wizards present had bird-shaped clones, some had familiars, and some, like the representative from the Storm Tower, had their pets holding the [Magic Eye]. This eyeball not only allowed the caster to gain its vision, but also to use spells below the seventh level.

There were also people like Feuerbach who arrived in person, but he and others could not determine who else was attending the meeting in person.

"Now that everyone is here, let's get started." Kou Bo was the host and he took the initiative to preside over the meeting.

"This is too troublesome. When can we find a new space?"

"Why not just use that secondary plane? By the way, what's the situation over there now?"

The chief of the Thunderstorm Tower replied: "I am keeping an eye on the 'refugees' who have migrated to this plane. The situation inside has been initially stabilized. It is best for us not to disturb them anymore. Master Kano and I have decided not to disclose the teleportation coordinates of the secondary plane."

Kano responded: "The focus now is not here. Seeing that the Republic and the Empire have had enough rest, I think the Empire should launch an action against the Republic before the large-scale grain harvest."

"Yes, a lot of things have happened in the empire recently. The new emperor is eager to prove himself with a military victory. It is also related to the Summer Night Unrest." The Mage Tower in the empire is paying attention to the deployment of the imperial army.

In order to prevent the Imperial Army from provoking another reaction to the electoral reforms, the Imperial Capital re-prepared the entire army to distract their attention. In addition to preparations on the main defense line, it also attempted to sabotage the main grain-producing areas in northern Valois.

Carnot knew that Valois was also preparing for a large-scale operation, and even an artillery general suggested that the main force should be pushed outside the mainland to fight and support the war, so as to ease the extremely tense logistics situation. The artillery general seemed to be someone he knew.
"What attitude should the guild take? Since the Valois guild has actually cooperated with the National Salvation Committee, our imperial branch should also be allowed to properly contact and cooperate with the imperial authorities."

Representatives of the Empire's Mage Tower discovered that the opportunity to restore the guild to normal operations in the Empire had arrived because the military mages had split and broken away from royal control.

William II no longer trusted most of the military mages, and the royal family softened their attitude towards the guild, and even tried to let the Senate of the Mage to control those "lawless spellcasters". After all, the guild has always been gloriously isolated, and it has never thought of pulling out a group of mages to kidnap His Royal Highness the Crown Prince. Kano began to sell his ideals again: "So it is very necessary to monitor the 'Tree of Truth'! It will become the basis for controlling spellcasters and the bond to restore the cross-continental nature of the guild. We can monitor a part of the branches in each tower and inform each other of the records."

"Perhaps this idea is outdated. Monitoring the 'Tree of Truth' is no longer sufficient to control all spellcasting situations." The owl transformed by Feuerbach had a ring on its right foot, which was actually a storage ring. He took out two tutorials on spell clouds from it and threw them to Kano.

The Chief of the Tower of Mysticism reported the existence of the "Spell Cloud" to other great wizards for the first time, and roughly explained its operating principles and the existence of the "Tree of Law".

"So, even if we monitor the main cluster of spell chains, a lot of magic will pass through the 'Tree of Law'. I'm not sure about the effect of monitoring the Tree of Truth, but I can only say that with the existence of the Tree of Law, the situation will be much more complicated."

"Why are you talking about such a big thing only now?" Some chiefs were stunned. When did a brand new spellcasting system emerge? And isn't the Tree of Truth the only one in myth and legend? How come a second tree appeared after the first one was discovered?
"Because I have been observing its effectiveness for some time. It has proven to work well and has greatly lowered the threshold for learning and even casting spells. The most noteworthy thing is that I successfully used it to cast a nine-ring spell today."

Kano was a little annoyed that his blueprint had a stain on it: "It can be seen that the holder of the Tree of Law is at least at the level of a great wizard.

"With the lessons learned from the past, we can no longer let a great wizard do whatever he wants. We should make necessary contact with him, make a comprehensive assessment, and take compulsory measures when he does not cooperate."

Feuerbach said solemnly: "Isn't that too tough?"

"Tough? You should be tough! Are we going to keep lax until the situation is irreversible?" Kano seemed to be influenced by the atmosphere of Valuana. His behavior seemed to be like that of a member of the National Salvation Committee. He raised one wing and gave a speech:

"Public mages, it was our indifference to the Master of Necromancer that nearly caused him to murder at least 100,000 people, resulting in irreversible consequences. Now, a new danger has sprouted, and a monopoly on the spellcasting system has emerged. Should we continue to wait until the last minute to deal with it?

"We are the Arcane Senate, shouldering the future of all mages. Don't be weak anymore, don't compromise anymore!"

The other birds nodded in agreement with Kano's speech. After listening to Feuerbach's description, once the new spell system is rolled out, it will indeed have an impact on the entire mage community. Regardless of whether it is good or bad, he and his system should be brought under the control of the Senate.

Finally, Chairman Kano asked solemnly: "So, Master Feuerbach, do you have any information about the creator of the magic cloud?"

"The information I have is very accurate and detailed." The person being questioned felt extremely happy at this moment. His efforts to conceal the name of the protagonist in his report were quite effective: "He is from the Empire, graduated from the Imperial Royal School of Magic, and is now 20 years old."

The other mages were all surprised that the Imperial Academy could produce such a monster. The bird controlled by Cobb grinned and showed an anthropomorphic smile. The more Kano listened, the more he felt something was wrong, especially the one about having studied abroad in the Starry Tower for a year and now living in Bayern.
Feuerbach declared to Kano, who had just been chattering, as if he had won: "The creator of the magic cloud is Rorschach!"

Kano immediately interrupted: "Before, I made an arbitrary decision without full information. Now I think that we should take the initiative to show goodwill to such a talented young man. I know Rorschach very well, and he will cooperate with us."
