The Wizard's Secret Journey

Chapter 77 Incomplete Patterns
Elena's pale green eyes suddenly lit up and she asked:
"What do you need me to do?"

Lin En leaned back on the sofa and asked calmly:
"So, you want to escape too?"

Elena did not answer directly, she just said slowly:

“The situation is worse than you think, Lynn.

“The Holland School has officially declared war on the Horsens School.

“During this period, all of Horsens’ overseas businesses have suffered attacks to varying degrees, and the attack on the international students you know of is just one of them.

"Yesterday, Anderson, a formal student of Mr. Huosens, a first-level senior wizard who had just gone to Silver Ring Academy, also completely lost contact with the school."

Elena's tone was low. Compared with the demise of the third-level school Black Rose, the disappearance of Anderson, a first-level wizard, made her more uneasy.

"There are also rumors that the Holland School has added a new second-level wizard."

"A new second-level wizard?" Lin En was slightly stunned. He hadn't recovered from the news of the disappearance of the first-level wizard yet, and he heard this even more shocking news.

The original Horsens School and the Holland School each had only one second-level wizard.

But now, this balance in combat power has been broken.

And it is a huge breakthrough.

If the probability of the Horsens School winning on paper was 50% before, then after the Holland School had an additional second-level wizard, it would only be 5% at most.

"The Horsens School has completely abandoned its overseas businesses and decided to stay in Horsens Wizard Territory for a last-ditch effort."

Elena sighed, her vision slightly out of focus.

"The official war will come soon, and it is not impossible that it will come tomorrow.

“I initially thought the school chose to hold on, perhaps because it had some kind of trump card.

“But the truth is, Lynn, David versus Goliath is only a story in fiction.

"Wizard Hosens has secretly arranged for some talented apprentices to leave with the inheritance...

"Just like... the original Black Rose School."

Lynn couldn't help but feel a sense of urgency.

"But..." Elena said, "No matter what the final outcome of the war is, it is the best choice to stay away from the Horsens Wizard Territory when the war breaks out."

Elena had considered all the circumstances.

Whether she stays here or not has no impact on the battle situation, but the survival rate of leaving is much higher than staying here.

If the Horsens School wins at that time, she can also come back quietly depending on the situation.

Therefore, there is no need to think too much about how to choose now.

There was a brief silence in the room, and Lynn said:

"Material.

"I need you to help me gather the materials to make the Lambiel shuttle."

Elena sat up straight and asked tentatively:

"As a reward, I will have a seat on the way out?"

"Of course." Lin En nodded. "There are a total of 8 seats in the Lambiel shuttle. I only need 4 of them. If you can provide me with the materials and it doesn't affect my departure, you can assign the remaining 3 seats to me."

“No.” Elena shook her head, “I just need a seat.

“Not everyone has the resolve to leave – especially members of the school.

“Unfortunately, the people I’m familiar with are all members of the school.

"Luck, attachment, reluctance... they are trapped here by something."

Elena looked at Lin En and said frankly:
“In fact, I am also a member of the school, and if I had a choice, I would not want to leave.

“Once you leave the Horsens School, you become a wild wizard.

“And the wild wizard…” Elena shook her head and sighed, “The road ahead will become a hundred times more difficult and full of thorns.

“That is the most difficult path to truth.”

Lin En was silent. He naturally understood the difficulties faced by wild wizards.

Without knowledge inheritance, without the protection of power, it is difficult to have enough resources...

“However, I heard that in addition to cultivating wizard seeds from a young age, Silver Ring Academy also recruits students from outside.

“As long as you meet the requirements and pass a series of assessments.”

Elena smiled again and said, “I’ll share this information with you for free, Lin En.

"As an extra thank you for coming to see me."

Lin En paused, shook his head slightly and said frankly:

"I don't have any more choices. You are the only one."

Elena was not disappointed, but smiled even more happily, saying without a doubt:
"An alliance formed by interests is the most solid." Lin En did not comment, and Elena asked:

"If there are enough materials, how long will it take you to build the shuttle?"

"Not sure yet. Besides, I'm afraid it will take at least half a month before I can start production."

"Half a month later?" Elena was puzzled and asked with a frown, "It's with the Golden Shadow Wizard..."

"There is a confidentiality agreement. I can't say more." Lynn interrupted Elena.

Elena understood and skipped the topic.

Next, the two discussed more details of the plan, and Lynn handed the list of materials for the Lambiel shuttle to Elena.

The complexity of the materials needed for a large shuttle obviously exceeded Elena's expectations.

She frowned as she looked at the list, and after a moment's silence, she said, "It will take me quite some time to get these things.

“Plus the time it takes to make it, we may not be able to catch up.”

"It doesn't matter." Lin En shook his head. "We can't decide more things. We can only do what we can."

Elena looked up at him, as if she had thought of something, and suddenly said:

"Since you are good at witchcraft knowledge... I have something I want you to help me with."

After she finished speaking, she turned around and took out a few pieces of white paper with strange patterns on them from the bookcase behind her.

"Do you recognize these things?"

Lin En took the white paper, looked at it carefully for a moment, and said uncertainly:

"It seems to be the incomplete patterns of some kind of witchcraft array... Where did you find these patterns?"

“Can you see any effect?”

Lin En shook her head, and Elena took back the white paper.

"I found these in some ancient ruins in Greenwood City."

She didn't explain much, just stretched out her hand and smiled:

"I will do my best to collect materials in the coming time...Happy cooperation, Lin En."

Lin En didn't reach out his hand, but nodded calmly: "It's a pleasure to work with you. I will tell you when we can start making the shuttle."

He stood up and prepared to leave.

But when he reached the door, he seemed to remember something and said:
"In order to cover up, I need you to visit me often during the next period of time."

"Of course." Elena nodded and chuckled, "It's normal for two young boys and girls who grew up together and are from the same hometown to have a good relationship."

Lynn didn't respond and pushed the door open to leave.

……

Lin En returned home without resting as there were still about 6 hours before his return time at 7 o'clock the next day.

He wanted to take advantage of this time to spy on the Lambier Shuttle.

Not long after, Lynn came out of his peeping state.

Looking at myself, a new line of characters has appeared in the skills column:
[Lambiel shuttle production (beginner's guide)].

"It seems that the intense work during this period has improved my knowledge of witchcraft."

Lynn thought to herself.

Leman has a high level of attainment in wizard formations, and would occasionally give some pointers when renovating the wizard tower.

Every time, Lin En is deeply touched and feels like he has been enlightened.

'However, the entry-level Lambiel shuttle production is not enough. If you want to succeed in one go while ensuring the production speed, you must at least reach the mastery level.'

……

At 6 o'clock in the morning, Lin En returned to the underground of the Golden Shadow Society on time.

Lehman was still busy. When he saw Lin En coming back, he said without turning his head:
"After you have rested, continue working.

"For me, for yourself and for those you love, hurry up... show your true talent, understand?"

"Yes." Lynn nodded calmly, not realizing the deeper meaning of Lehman's words.

He went straight to the wizard tower.

Perhaps it was because he had just taken a peek at the Lanbir shuttle, he felt that his wizard formation skills had improved again, and the efficiency of making energy supply units was obviously much faster than before!

'If I continue to work at my current efficiency, I can complete my daily work at least one-third earlier.'

Lin En held the carving knife and stared at the witchcraft unit in front of him, feeling delighted.
