The wizard era begins with the alchemist wizard

Chapter 318 War Situation

Looking at the sincere high priest, Richard considered it again and again, and finally accepted a few people.

The scroll with the seal of the five Towers of Truth cannot be faked. As long as the scroll is real, this group of magic dwarves can almost be called non-staff wizards.

In the absence of a crime, even the law enforcement wizards of the Ministry of Justice have no right to restrict a wizard's freedom.

The high priest handed over a total of thirty magic dwarves to Richard. These magic dwarves were divided into half by gender, with the male dwarves all reaching level two and the female dwarves all reaching level one.

Richard temporarily prepared some suspended death potions that wizards used to store synthetic animals for a long time and had the dwarves take them.

These magic dwarves are not strong enough to fight, and they can only serve as cannon fodder when participating in the academy war.

After taking the suspended death potion, Richard put the magic dwarves into the pocket of the synthetic beast and then left the magic dwarf settlement.

It took Richard nearly nine days to reach the magic dwarf settlement, but after leaving the settlement, Richard flew at full speed and returned to his original hiding place in less than half a day.

Richard checked and found that the magic circle of the hiding place showed signs of being damaged, which meant that the wizards of Meteorite Academy had finally discovered this place.

"It seems that even the best disguise can't withstand decades of searching."

Richard is about to enter the temporary laboratory, and the specimen he had left on the test bench that year has indeed disappeared.

Richard shook his head and pulled out the communication crystal ball from his pocket.

After being cursed for ten years and sleeping for another twenty years, Richard knew nothing about the current war situation.

He now needs to understand the situation of the war.

When you open the crystal ball, dense magical messages keep popping out like popping beans.

The magical information accumulated over thirty years jumped for more than ten minutes before it stopped.

Richard picked out some recent information and looked at it, and found that the war situation seemed very grim.

In the past thirty years, nearly two-thirds of the outer academy of the Black Tower Wizarding Academy has been occupied, and currently only one inner ring of the entire academy is still being guarded.

If the inner ring is lost, the core wizard tower of the Black Tower Wizard Academy will face the attack of the Meteorite Wizard Academy.

This is basically equivalent to ending the war.

The two great wizards didn't have any deep hatred, so they just occupied the external academy as a gesture of respect.

If we really break into the core wizard tower, not to mention the Black Tower's Great Wizard, the three rings of the Black Tower Wizard Academy will also be mobilized collectively.

By then, the war will not be as restrained as it is now.

"It seems that it will be a hassle for me to go back and renew the contract."

If Richard wanted to go back to renew the contract, he would first have to pass through the outer ring of the academy occupied by the Meteorite Wizarding Academy, and then he would have to pass through the inner ring of the Black Tower Wizarding Academy at the risk of being treated as an enemy by the wizards of the Black Tower Wizarding Academy.

Finally, Richard was able to enter the core wizard tower and renew the contract with Alex.

This process sounds quite laborious, and if you really do it, you can imagine how difficult it is.

But Richard wasn't about to give up on the idea.

The treasure house of the great wizard of the Black Tower is not just any random collection room.

Even though the Great Wizard of the Black Tower has only been a Great Wizard for a few thousand years, the collection in his hands is definitely a treasure that they have never seen before.

If Richard missed this opportunity, he might never encounter such an opportunity again in his life.

"Let's go observe the situation first. If the defense is tight, forget it."

After leaving the hiding place, Richard put the witch hunting team into the synthetic beast's pocket.

With these four big guys following behind him, it would be hard for Richard to avoid being discovered.

After collecting them, Richard took out a map from his pocket, matched the directions in his memory, and flew eastward.

……

Thirty years of war changed a lot of things.

The once towering black walls of the outer ring of the Black Tower Wizard Academy are now mostly destroyed.

The towering defensive spires all collapsed in the battle between the wizards.

These defensive weapons are extremely lethal no matter which side they fall into.

Neither wizard will leave it to the other.

Inside the city wall, the remains of living gargoyles almost covered the entire ground. These living gargoyles, created by alchemists, had served as cannon fodder and auxiliary soldiers for the wizards of the Black Tower Academy in the battles of the past thirty years.

Relying on these things, the wizards of the Black Tower Academy were able to fight back and forth with the Meteorite Academy.

But as the war continued, the number of gargoyles in the Black Tower Academy became few and far between. The speed at which the alchemists produced gargoyles could not keep up with the speed of consumption during the war.

Standing on the hill outside the college, Richard looked at the ruined college and couldn't help but sigh.

Even if both sides are trying to control the intensity of the war, war will ultimately result in casualties.

These wizards survived the plane war, stepping on the corpses of so many indigenous people, but in the end, they died at the hands of their own people.

And this is just two great wizards sulking each other.

If two great wizards reconcile, these lesser wizards will have to shake hands and make peace no matter how much hatred they have for each other during the war.

Perhaps in the near future, the two academies will be able to fight side by side in the same world. The enemies who once fought each other will become close comrades in the blink of an eye.

Unless you become a great wizard, you will always be just a pawn in the wizarding world.

After observing outside the academy for a long time, Richard finally confirmed that there were basically no wizards outside the academy.

All wizards of Meteorite Academy gathered in the frontline area near the inner ring.

And this also brought a message to Richard.

Richard muttered to himself, "It seems that the Meteor Academy is not prepared for us, the outsourced wizards."

But this is normal. Although these wizards sent abroad are elites, their numbers are very small.

Even if dozens of second-ring wizards gathered together, they would not be able to change the situation of the war.

Moreover, once the wizards of Meteor Academy discover that the wizards sent out have returned, the wizards who were pinned down by the wizards sent out in Meteor Academy’s hometown will certainly reinforce the front line. At that time, the situation on the front line of Black Tower Academy will be even more unfavorable.

"Since there is no defense, can I sneak in?"

Richard touched his chin and took out a mask from his pocket.

Although the war had been going on for thirty years, Richard believed that these wizards of the Meteorite Academy would not know all of them.

As long as he behaves naturally enough, he shouldn't be discovered in a short time.

All he needs to do during this period of time is to find a way to invade the inner circle of the Black Tower Academy.

This is a risky plan. If discovered, Richard will definitely be hunted down by the wizards of Meteorite Academy.

Moreover, when he sneaks in, he cannot release the witch hunting team. A wizard followed by a huge alchemical golem will be too conspicuous.

If it weren't for Richard's current physique reaching the peak of the second-ring wizard, and if it weren't for the fact that after devouring the soul rules, he would have gained an ability called mind guidance.

He really didn't dare to carry out such a risky plan.

Wearing a mask, Richard quietly entered the Black Tower Wizarding Academy, which had become ruins.

The once tight defenses had been reduced to ruins during the thirty years of war. Richard moved cautiously among the ruins with the help of his invisible cloak, without any unnecessary movements.

Soon, Richard saw a wizard from the Meteorite Academy.

This is a first-level alchemist wizard, who is currently repairing his alchemy puppet.

It was an eight-legged alien alchemical puppet that looked like a spider. Its dark golden shell was inscribed with dense runes. Eight crystal eyeballs were located on the puppet's head, and at this moment, they were all flashing a dangerous red color.

The puppet was badly damaged, with four of its eight mechanical legs blown off by the spell, and huge dents on its protective armor, with cracks in some places. Through the cracks, one could see the damaged complex structure inside the puppet.

If Richard were to judge, this puppet had basically lost its value of repair, and it would be easier to directly transform it.

But apparently this first-ring wizard didn't think so. He was still trying in vain to repair it, and even used a crystal ball to call for help.

The helper is a second-ring wizard, who seems to be the teacher of the first-ring wizard.

As soon as the second-ring wizard arrived, he scolded the first-ring wizard severely. Then he looked at the broken alchemical puppet and made the same judgment as Richard.

"This puppet isn't worth repairing. Take it apart for parts and smelt down the rest for recycling."

The first-ring wizard felt a little disappointed, but his teacher had already made a judgment, so he could only obey.

"maybe."

A voice made the first-ring wizard stop in his tracks.

He looked back and saw a black-robed wizard wearing a silver mask slowly walking out of the ruins.

"who are you?"

The second-ring wizard held his staff and looked vigilantly at Richard who suddenly appeared.

"Who else could I be? Could I still be a wizard from the Black Tower Academy?"

Richard's voice carried a subtle magic, which made the two wizards involuntarily ignore the things that were wrong with Richard after hearing it.

This is the ability generated by the interaction of the soul rules and nightmare rules in Richard's body - mind guidance.

This ability does not directly affect people's minds, it only subtly makes people use their imagination.

For example, Richard's words made the two wizards imagine that Richard must be a wizard from the Meteorite Academy.

This is a change that happens silently, but the effect is more terrifying than the spells of the Soul School that directly control people's minds.

Once people make a decision, they will involuntarily look for arguments to justify the decision and ignore evidence that can refute it.

The first-level wizard asked respectfully, "Master, do you think my puppet can be repaired?"

Richard nodded slightly: “Of course, it’s just a bit troublesome.

But why do we need to repair it? Why not just reshape the shell, dismantle the damaged structures inside, and turn this eight-legged alien puppet into a four-legged alien puppet? "

The first-ring wizard was stunned when he heard this, and then fell into deep thought.

But his teacher was very knowledgeable. After listening to Richard's suggestion, he replied directly: "The master's knowledge is as vast as the ocean, but this transformation is a bit too difficult for us."

"It's difficult... yes. How about this, you sell this puppet to me?" Richard said slowly, "At this time, we should try to avoid wasting materials."

The second-ring wizard was slightly stunned after hearing this, and then looked at the students around him: "Your puppet, you decide."

The first-ring wizard hesitated for a while, and finally sighed and said, "Two hundred magic essences, Master, buy it if you are willing."

Richard said nothing, then took out two hundred magic spirits from his pocket and replaced the alchemical puppet.

After getting the puppet, Richard did not shy away from anything and directly dismantled the outer shell of the alchemical puppet in front of the two wizards. He then dismantled the structures inside that would make ordinary people dizzy at the first sight in a few seconds.

The structure of this alchemical puppet is very complex, but this is a manifestation of low craftsmanship. Complexity means fragility and difficulty in maintenance.

After Richard removed the damaged parts, he couldn't help but look up and said, "How did you make a first-level puppet so complicated?"

The first-ring wizard looked ashamed, and the second-ring wizard sighed helplessly.

Richard slightly modified the remaining usable parts, removing most of the redundant structures inside, and then reshaped the outer shell and reinstalled the four intact mechanical legs.

Soon, a four-legged alien puppet was made.

The whole process took less than half an hour.

After watching all this, even the second-ring wizard couldn't help but praise: "The master's technique is truly amazing."

Although he could make such changes, he thought he couldn't simplify his students' defense into this in such a short time.

Controlling the four-legged puppet, Richard naturally walked towards the Meteor Wizard's position.

The two wizards naturally came up with a suitable identity for Richard.

"Master, you are here to support us, right?"

"What do you say?"
