The Wizard's Secret Journey

Chapter 81 Night

After leaving Youan's house and waiting to get on the carriage, Elena asked with interest:

"The witchcraft just now was quite powerful, but I don't think I've ever seen it before. What was it?"

"It's just a magic to control the airflow." Lin En answered perfunctorily.

White Crow Swordsmanship is essentially a form of witchcraft.

After Lynn was promoted to a second-class apprentice, its power had already increased.

But perhaps because of his enhanced mental strength, Lin En found that he could actually use his own magic power to create the White Crow Sword Qi.

Lin En has always wanted to try to use the White Crow Magic Group to cast witchcraft, but there are many difficulties in the process and he has never succeeded.

However, he did not expect that after being promoted, he would be able to use his own magic power to drive the White Crow Swordsmanship.

This is much simpler than using the White Crow Magic Energy to drive witchcraft!
The White Crow Sword Qi driven by magic is even more powerful, but consumes slightly more energy.

Seeing that he was unwilling to answer, Elena did not force him to do so, but simply said:

"You know, Lynn, I thought you wouldn't do that?"

"How?"

"I thought you would continue to bargain with Youan." Elena replied, and suddenly asked,
“If he still won’t lower the price, will you really do what you said you would?

"Go and grab the Blue Patterned Gem directly."

Lin En pondered for a moment and nodded:

"I'm not as kind as you think. I just have some bottom lines, Elena."

Elena did not comment, stroked the hair beside her ear, and suddenly smiled:
"We are one kind of people, Lynn."

"I don't think we are." Lynn shook his head calmly.

Elena did not refute, but changed the subject and asked:
"Are three blue gems enough?"

"We can only try. We need to modify some energy supply modules..."

Lin En frowned, looked at the prosperous Cuilin City outside through the car window, and sighed softly.

Elena didn't say anything else, and a rare look of uneasiness appeared on her face.

After all, she was just a second-class wizard apprentice.

After saying goodbye to Elena, Lynn returned to the basement to continue making the Lambiel shuttle.

This small shuttle has basically taken shape in appearance.

It is roughly shuttle-shaped, with shorter wings on both sides, about 10 meters long, and the widest part in the middle without wings is about 2 and a half meters.

That is to say, the basements of wizards' residences are generally very spacious in order to facilitate research or practice of witchcraft.

Otherwise, there is really no way to put this big guy down here.

However, for a basement, the Lambiel shuttle is large.

But compared to large flying vehicles like airships, it looks a bit mini.

The interior space of the Lambiel shuttle is extremely narrow. Although it can theoretically carry 8 people, in reality, 3-6 people are the best choice if you want to store some daily necessities.

Holding the blue-patterned gem, Lin En came to the middle of the shuttle.

Lifting the bottom plate, a complex rectangular structure comes into view.

This is the energy supply module of the Lanbir shuttle. Lin En has actually already completed it and is just waiting to inlay the blue-patterned gemstone into it and then charge it with magic stones or magic energy veins.

However, the original design of the energy supply module required 5 blue gems.

Now he only has 3 in his hand, and many places need to be changed.

As for trying to find more blue-patterned gems... Lin En was not willing to pin his hopes on illusory luck, he would rather try to transform them himself.

'Perhaps we can try to reduce some power and unnecessary functions to reduce the pressure on energy supply...'

Lin En thought for a while, then returned to his workbench and started writing furiously on the manuscript paper. He was soon immersed in the writing.

The sun passed quietly across the sky and finally slowly sank into the horizon.

Cuilin City has entered winter, and as night falls, the air becomes even colder.

At a certain moment, a snowflake suddenly fell from the night sky.

The first snow of winter has arrived.

In the basement, Lin En was unaware of this. He rubbed his temples, checked the time, and weighed whether to wake up and continue his research. "It's snowing..."

Upstairs, Adeline was still awake. She sat by the window, looking at the snow outside. She was lost in thought, not knowing what she was thinking about.

Suddenly, Adeline caught a glimpse of a figure walking hurriedly towards the door in the snow and wind on the street outside.

'Are you a visitor to see Mr. Lynn?'

Adeline stood up, but the next second, the figure directly climbed over the wall and quickly approached the main house!

"Mr. Lin En's magic array...didn't work?"

But soon, with the help of the light at the door, Adeline saw the person coming clearly. She was slightly startled and hurried to open the door.

"Where's Lynn?"

The figure strode into the living room, lowered his hood, revealing his signature blonde hair and green eyes, with an anxious look on his face.

It was Elena Rose.

"Lady Elena, Lady Lin is still in the basement." Adeline replied.

Elena nodded and strode towards the basement.

But as if she had thought of something, she turned around and said:
"Adeline, go get Gigos, and you guys come along too."

Adeline was confused, but she nodded in agreement.

Elena continued walking towards the basement, and just as she reached the stairs, she met Lynn who was about to go upstairs.

Lin En's heart sank when he saw Elena's hurried appearance and the bag she was carrying behind her.

“To make a long story short, just now, I discovered that the short-range communication magic array at the guard post had lost its connection with the mountain.

"Besides the damage to the witch formation, there is only one other reason for this situation.

"The school has completely activated the defensive magic array, which means..."

"The war is coming soon..." Lynn replied, turning around and walking towards the basement without hesitation.

As if thinking of something, he said,
"Elena, please help me call Adeline and Jigos over."

"I have called them," replied Elena.

Lin En was slightly startled, glanced at Elena, and continued walking towards the basement.

After these days of contact, Elena has understood him well enough and he would not joke about such things.

"How's the progress of the shuttle?" Elena asked behind him.

"Not even a little bit yet. I need some time. How long will it take before the war officially begins?"

"I don't know, maybe a few minutes, maybe an hour, but no more than half a day." Elena shook her head and gave a new piece of information:
“There is another strange thing. Two days ago, the school summoned some apprentices from the guard department to return to the mountain. They were supposed to come back yesterday, but those apprentices did not come back.

"I originally thought it was just an ordinary mission, but now I feel like the school called those apprentices back because they sensed the coming of war."

"You mean, the school abandoned the rest of you apprentices?" Lynn shook her head. "It's just a coincidence, Elena. Besides, you don't plan to return to the school, do you?
"It's more important for us to get the shuttle."

“You’re right, Linn.” Elena relaxed her brows, “I may have thought too much.

"Is there anything I can do for you?"

Lin En pushed open the basement door and walked straight to the meditation room on the right. After thinking for a while, he said:
"I need some time, don't disturb me. If you really need help with anything, wait for Gigos and Adeline to come over and help me explain everything to them.

In order to avoid unnecessary trouble, Jigos and Adeline didn't know about the shuttle and the war.

"Oh, right..." As if thinking of something, Lin En took off his Golden Shadow Society badge, threw it to Elena, and said,

"Take it and go to the Golden Shadow Society to have a look."

"why?"

"I can't say too much, Elena. I can only say that this may be our second hope of escaping Cuilin City...although, it is very slim."

Although he vaguely realized that the Golden Shadow Wizard was just deceiving him, at this critical moment of life and death, he could not let go of even the slightest hope!

Lynn took a breath, turned and walked into the meditation room.

He opened the light curtain and took a look. His own source energy had only recovered half, but he no longer had time to wait for it to recover more.

Sitting cross-legged on the cushion, Lin En closed his eyes and took a deep breath to calm himself.

He needs to investigate now and find out how to modify the energy supply module!
