Wizard Alchemist

Chapter 182 People from Another World
"These teenagers generally have the educational level of a junior high school student...

Invest some resources first and see if you can produce intermediate apprentices in a few years.

Then I will teach you witchcraft such as "activation", "strong acid refining" and "element refining".

It also has a certain ability to cast spells, and can do a lot of things..."

After everyone left, Roy pondered alone.

“It doesn’t matter if you don’t have the qualifications.

They can be trained to become craftsmen, high-level knights, or great knights, and sent to the battlefield..."

……

The arrival of the young apprentices has brought a lot of popularity to this cold quarry.

With their arrival, some non-staff members such as craftsmen and chefs also came.

This is to take care of daily life.

But Roy did not meet with them, but asked Gold to manage it on his behalf.

This descendant of high-level goblins from the empire is good at these trivial matters and can maximize the enthusiasm of his craftsmen and laborers.

Where no one knew, a hazy figure gradually changed from a petite centaur maid as small as a deer back to its original form.

She is not a human, but a dark elf named Pranjie with long pointed ears.

She was wearing a dress as light as gauze, but her hands and feet were tied with belts, and her waist was tightened, making her look slim.

His skin was like slightly burnt wheat, brownish-yellow in color, and there were white scar-like curse marks on many parts of his body, giving him an exotic look.

At this time, it was late at night and the quarry was quiet, and it was dark all around.

But she seemed to have the ability to see at night, and she half-crouched and walked out like a ghost.

Outer corridor.

Magic lights hanging on the wall illuminate the surroundings.

Under the lamp, guards under Atidiya were on duty, faithfully guarding the quarry.

However, because of the long period of peace, their vigilance was a little low, and they were completely unaware of the figure that quietly passed by.

It was a superb stealth skill, the body seemed transparent, disappearing into the night.

……

A few days later, July 11th.

More than a hundred miles away from the Tata Mountain quarry, there is a country manor owned by an indigenous noble.

Several people gathered in the small hall on the second floor of the villa, with a topographic map of the quarry on the table.

Places are marked on it in various colors and shapes.

“That’s basically the situation…

Through various means such as aerial reconnaissance and Planjie's on-site infiltration investigation, we have successfully modeled the on-site environment.

I also began to understand the general mechanisms, traps and defensive forces.

It can be basically confirmed that this first-level wizard named Roy is indeed a newcomer who was promoted in recent years.

He seems to have good fighting talent. His performance in the previous battles of Skartu and Bloodhoof was remarkable.

However, there is a serious shortage of reserves for magic alarms, reconnaissance sensors and other means outside the front battlefield.

The Empire's plan may find a breakthrough from him."

A wizard wearing a bright moon-white robe decorated with plant patterns such as laurel and pine branches commented calmly.

“However, now is not the time.

This world is home to high-ranking wizards, and they are a presence that cannot be ignored."

"Yes, a third-level wizard from Weiser...

This is equivalent to our 16th to 20th level mages, able to cast 7th to 9th level spells."

"He only needs one person to easily wipe out our special operations team!"

"We can only truly begin after His Excellency Archmage Gem takes action and completely diverts his attention!"

Several human men and women wearing similar clothing but clearly not mages nodded slightly.

"The Empire has attacked wizard colonies from the rear many times.

Some succeed, some fail...

But without exception, it requires patience and hard work.”

"Then it's decided. Before launching the formal attack, wait patiently and lie low.

Gather as much intelligence as possible so that we can strike them with a thunderous blow on the day of our attack!"

The leader nodded and touched his chest with his hand.

"Arcane is above, the glory of the empire will eventually shine upon this world!"

"Arcane above!"

Everyone also placed their hands on their chests and solemnly declared.

……

In the carving room.

"Lord Roy, Lord Roy!"

Roy was busy as usual, discussing the next carving plan with Stodson, when he suddenly heard Atidiya's voice outside.

She walked in, a look of anxiety on her face, and informed him.

"Lord Ivant has returned, and he has brought intelligence about the Southern Frontier Icefield."

"Oh?"

Roy's expression changed slightly when he heard this, and he stood up and left the carving room.

Ivant, who had not been seen for a long time, came back as expected, with a look of excitement on his face.

“Lord Roy, the ancient battlefield!
I discovered the ancient battlefield of the Knight War 500 years ago!

The space crack leading to the Osis Empire is hidden in it!
Those orcs must have come from there, and Yannis also went to the orc world from there!"

"It's actually inside the ancient battlefield?"

Roy was slightly startled.

In fact, with his status, he could learn from his teacher about the "Knight War" 500 years ago, and he could also see the location of the ancient battlefield from the map.

But without an on-site investigation, I really don’t know the current situation there, let alone the specific direction from which those orcs came.

So for more than a year, he continued to send Ivant there to investigate.

Once, twice, three times, five times...

After many failures, I finally made a discovery.

……

"A spatial rift in the ancient battlefield?

Even I don't know about this matter.

Historical materials are either vague or vast, and there are so many things buried in the long river of time..."

Not long after, Roy spoke with his teacher remotely to discuss the incident.

Frost sighed sincerely.

His investigation was immediately highly praised and he was given a long-term task.

"Let your people continue investigating.

I will also send some spies to try to reach the other side."

Things like space cracks are the connecting points between the two ends of the star field.

It's like folding a piece of paper in half and cutting a few times.

Even the slightest distortion and deviation would lead to a huge mistake.

The passage that Roy and others used to enter the Cretaceous Country was revealed only by the dark star that appeared once every 23 years.

Therefore, it is not like a teleportation array that can be defended and shut out to invading orcs.

But similarly, the Orc Empire also had no way to prevent the infiltration of small forces.

Frost intended to try this out as a casual move.

"Teacher, please help me exchange some materials. I plan to create a few apprentice-level magical weapons and enchanted items so that Ivant can better carry out this task."

Roy thought about it and said to Frost.

After all, it's about a different world.

Both passive defense and active offense will be valuable.
