Two Worlds: I studied abroad at Hogwarts

Chapter 263 A Wizard Visits

Before Moon showed up, the Star Wizard's expectations for the wizards of the Star Embers Island tribe had already reached freezing point.

The curse that had been unsolvable for thousands of years weighed on them, leaving him with no hope.

The only reason that kept him going was that he always believed that the spirits of his ancestors would protect future generations.

This is not only his belief, but also the belief of all the tribesmen.

The strange magic happening to Moon now is considered by the Star Wizard to be the guidance of the tribal high priest to his heir long ago.

Moon hadn't figured out how to explain it to the three great wizards.

Hearing what the Great Star Wizard said, Moon frowned slightly and was stunned for a moment, then quickly nodded.

"I knew the high priest would not ignore us. He must have mastered some mysterious time magic to be able to teach you so many amazing sorcery techniques from a distance."

"Yes, I did learn a lot of magical magic."

Moon naturally would not deny this.

The Great Spirit Tree Wizard, who was originally observing the fire dragon, also came over after noticing what was happening here.

After listening to the explanation of the Star Wizard, she nodded in sudden realization.

"In ancient tribal legends, the high priests of long ago could summon all kinds of magical creatures, which is very similar to our current high priests."

The great wizards have found the best explanation for Moon, so he doesn't have to worry anymore.

Even with such an explanation, Moon's identity on Xingjin Island became clearer.

The grandson of the high priest from long ago.

Seeing that the three great wizards and Lang and Lu beside them were all convinced, Moon and Zalan looked at each other and smiled.

After confirming Moon's identity, the wizards continued to admire the fire dragon.

With the great wizard Hailan, who is good at summoning waves, taking care of him, Moon doesn't have to worry about fire.

After observing for a while, the Star Wizard suddenly thought of something and turned to consult Moon about the fire dragon.

"High Priest, does your friend, Norbert, have any other effects with his dragon breath?"

"Other effects?"

Moon recalled the scene when he first saw Charmander and the introduction to the Norwegian Ridgeback in the Hogwarts textbook.

"The flames spewed out by this fire dragon should be a little poisonous."

"It's poisonous. What a pity! Now I can't use dragon breath to refine magical weapons."

The wizards of the Star Tribe are all good at crafting and inventing.

What they call magical weapons are actually equivalent to alchemical items from another world.

It’s just that because their magical concepts and cognition have not reached such a high standard, the things they create are relatively simple.

However, due to years of inheritance, they have also developed an alchemy path with very tribal characteristics.

Use magical tools to fuse or simulate various natural elements.

For example, they created a fire magic seal.

As long as you put the seal somewhere, that place will immediately burst into flames.

This kind of flame is not only not afraid of wind and rain, but can also use seals to determine the whereabouts of the enemy.

Although this magic item is not very powerful, it is also the most representative magical weapon of the Star Tribe.

There is also a wind chime that incorporates wind magic.

Just hang this little gadget indoors and it will always create a breeze and purify the air.

In addition to these, the wizards of the Star Tribe also use mithril, moonstone, and star sand to create a magic array.

This combination of magic can form a huge magic circle, which can be used to protect the safety of the island and launch attacks on the enemy.

However, due to the curse, the inheritance of making magic arrays was interrupted.

Now the only magic circles that can be used on Xingjin Island are the [Mist Hidden Ring] and the [Forest Spirit Fantasy Realm] that have been passed down.

The former can generate a thick fog-like magic barrier that completely covers objects or creatures within the range of the magic circle.

It not only makes it difficult for the enemy to find the target's location, but also hides the tribal wizard's figure very well.

The latter can cause a certain degree of instantaneous distortion of space, and the original scene will be replaced by a dense forest.

And combined with the [Wood Communication Technique] of the Spirit Tree Tribe, you can launch magic attacks between reality and illusion, making it difficult for the enemy to distinguish the direction of the attack.

In order to prevent these two inherited magic circles from being worn out, the great wizards will only activate them when a powerful enemy invades.

The Great Star Wizard had always wanted to replicate a magic array of this level, so he tried to refine it using the breath of a fire dragon.

It's just that Norbert's flames weren't suitable.

However, the great wizard Hai Lan, who had been paying attention to the fire dragon, became excited after hearing Moon's explanation.

"Poison is good, it will let those devil cubs who come to the island know how powerful we are!"

"What's good about that? The fire dragon is still young and can't be allowed to fight."

Although the little fire dragon had burned several landscape trees planted by the spiritual tree wizard himself.

But the mother-in-law was not annoyed at all, and even doted on Norbert very much.

In her eyes, the Charmander that sets fires everywhere is like her own descendant.

"I didn't intend to let it fight now. In three years, when Charmander becomes an adult, I don't think we will be able to stop it."

The great wizard Hai Lan was very eager to see the combat power of a truly adult fire dragon.

But there was something wrong with his estimated time.

"Great Wizard, a three-year-old Charmander is not considered an adult."

"Ah, then if I want it to go out and fight with me, won't it take a long time?"

Hearing what Great Witch Hailan said, Moon smiled and shook his head.

"In fact, it won't take three years. In one year, Charmander will be the overlord of the skies over the Vena Islands. By then, you might not be its opponent."

According to the knowledge Moon got from the book, Charmander will grow very fast after birth.

After a few months, its size will exceed that of an average house, and its magic resistance will gradually increase.

After a year, it can not only master flying in the air, but also spray flames continuously.

Such power is no longer something that a single wizard can handle.

"Is that so? Then I'm really looking forward to it."

After hearing Moon's explanation, not only the Great Wizard Hailan, but also the wizards around him showed anticipation in their eyes.

But speaking of this, Moon thought of another question.

"Great Wizard, the little fire dragon will grow very fast, so we must choose a suitable place for it to live in advance. Do you have any suggestions?"

Hearing Moon's question, the three great wizards looked at each other.

Finally, the Great Wizard of the Spirit Tree came out and pointed to the distant mountains to Moon.

"High Priest, there is an extinct volcano in the center of the Spirit Tree Tribe. The temperature there is very high, and there are also some hot springs and small magma vents. It should be suitable for fire dragons to live."

When Moon first came to Xingjin Island, he had seen the mountain from afar.

Later, when inspecting the spiritual tree, I also saw the wizards of the spiritual tree tribe using geothermal energy to cultivate various magical herbs.

As for the area near the volcano, it is full of rocks and the temperature is too high, which is not suitable for growing herbs. It can just provide a home for Charmander.

"Okay, I'm going to check that place now to see if I can blast a cave for Charmander."

The weather on the island is very changeable. When the flood season comes, it will rain for a long time.

By then, Charmander will need a dry place that is sheltered from the rain.

"There are several places there that would be very suitable. I'll let Lu take you to see them."

"it is good."

After Moon finished speaking, he and Lu Shaman from the Lingshu Tribe rode on flying brooms towards the distant volcano.

Not long after the two left, the wizard guarding the port came to the square and found the three great wizards.

"Great Wizard, a Federation spellcaster's ship has requested to enter the port. They said they want to visit the island."

The Vena Islands, where Xingjing Island is located, are nominally under the jurisdiction of the Gracia Federation. However, since the island was occupied by tribal wizards 3000 years ago, it has always been autonomous and has never been ruled by any country.

This delicate situation of belonging to the federal territory but not accepting any federal orders has caused the conflict between tribal wizards and federal spellcasters to deepen.

For this purpose, the Federation sent Vice Admiral Dylan Taft to attack Star Embers Island.

At that time, the nominal governor of the Vena Islands led 10 junior spellcasters to the island to fight.

However, this battle did not cause much trouble, and they were even safely escorted off the island a day later.

Only a few people know what happened in between.

But the Vice Admiral never proposed to recapture Star Embers Island again.

The three great wizards were all eyewitnesses of the battle at that time, and they had no intention of coming into conflict with the ruling power of the archipelago.

However, the three great wizards still remember the vice admiral's superb water magic.

"Since they are here to visit, please lead them to the reception room first."

The Star Wizard replied to the wizard who came to report, then looked at his two old friends.

"Should we ask the high priest to come back? It's definitely no small matter for a spellcaster to enter the island."

"Forget it, let's go meet him first. We can't rely on the high priest for everything. After all, he is still a child."

The Great Wizard of Lingshu said something and walked away first, and the other two Great Wizards hurriedly followed.

The reception room of Xingjin Island was built near the port. It was a simple stone castle building.

There are also many stone carvings with tribal characteristics on the stone walls outside.

Because there is not much communication with wizards in the outside world, this building is rarely used.

But today is different. After the tribesmen cleaned up, the three great witches arrived first and sat on the main seat.

After a while, the bronze door in front of the building opened with a bang, and two law enforcers walked in.

Vice Admiral Dylan Taft, who once attacked Star Embers Island, was among them.

More than a decade has passed, and the lieutenant general's appearance has not changed much.

The straight military uniform was matched with a light blue cape, and three naval medals in the shape of water ripples were pinned on the chest.

The three great wizards just glanced at him and automatically turned their attention to a soldier walking in front of the vice admiral.

The tall and straight figure, the face that is dignified without anger, and the neat but not cumbersome military uniform draped on his body give people a strong sense of oppression.

However, what attracted the three great wizards was the epaulettes on the soldier.

Three gold stars.

One more than Vice Admiral Dylan Taft.

"Why, after fleeing last time, you want to retake Xingjin Island this time?"

Looking at the serious expressions of the two spellcasters, Great Wizard Hailan was the first to ask.

"If you hadn't used the magic circle last time, we would have taken over this island long ago."

Dylan Taft also stood firm.

The last defeat made him lose face in the Federal Parliament, and now he feels very regretful every time he thinks about it.

"Humph! Isn't the magic circle part of our strength? Break it if you can."

In the battle more than ten years ago, the tribal wizards used the thick fog created by the [Mist Hidden Ring] and the psychedelic attacks created by the [Forest Spirit Fantasy Realm] to make the spellcasters return empty-handed.

"you"

The Vice Admiral wanted to continue to refute, but the soldier standing in front of him raised his hand to interrupt him.

"We are not here for territory."

Leighton Gavin stared at the stone carvings on the wall and continued in a cold voice.

"I heard your island took in the court mage."

Because he has lived in the army for many years, Leighton Gavin's language is more concise and direct.

And this time he came to find out the reason why the court mage of the Maynila Empire came to the Vena Islands.

After receiving the news from the court mage that the sailboat had docked at Xingjin Island, he immediately rushed here with the vice admiral.

"Court Mage?"

The three great wizards looked at each other.

The Star Wizard coughed lightly and said, "Are you talking about the wizard wearing a red robe and a golden mask with two silver stars on it?"

"Yes, I need to know why he is here."

"No comment on that."

Hearing Leighton Gavin's aggressive tone, the Great Wizard Hailan immediately became furious.

He didn't care whether the other party's military rank was higher or not, and the matter of the court mage was obviously an internal affair of Xingjin Island, so there was no need to tell outsiders.

Hearing the words of Great Wizard Hai Lan, Leighton Gavin took a deep breath and tried hard to force a smile.

"I'm sorry, maybe my attitude was wrong just now. I'm Leighton Gavin, Lieutenant General of the Gracia Federation Army and Chief of the Federation's Spellcasters. I'm here only on behalf of the Federation Supreme Council."

For Leighton Gavin, finding out the reason for the Court Mage's arrival is more important than anything else.

Not to mention letting him release some goodwill.

The Federation is currently at war with the Maynila Empire, and the court mage has appeared on the Ember Island and has yet to leave.

Leighton Gavin was very worried that the two forces would unite.

According to what the Great Wizard just said, a court wizard with the strength of a two-star golden mask is already able to negotiate cooperation on behalf of the Maynila Empire.

If the powerful Maynila Empire and the mysterious tribal wizards really form an alliance, the Federation will have almost no chance of winning this war.

Seeing that Leighton Gavin's attitude had improved, the great wizards stopped speaking ill of him.

The Spirit Tree Wizard tapped the ground with his cane, and a lot of vines emerged from the gaps between the tiles, carrying the two chairs towards the guests.

Then two more vines separated and brought two cups of tea from a table in the distance.

"Please take a seat, and please try some of our tribe's scented tea."

The Great Wizard of the Spirit Tree used the [Wood Communication Technique].

She has been studying this witchcraft for nearly 90 years, and many plants on the island are willing to obey her orders.

This witchcraft was not uncommon for tribal wizards, but it surprised Leighton Gavin and Dylan Taft.

In their previous understanding, wizards' combat strength would inevitably decline as they got older.

Because in this world, if you want to cast magic, you not only need to recite complicated spells, but also perform various complicated movements.

These things are a huge burden for old wizards.

Whether it is a slow mind or an unresponsive body, wizards are unable to cast magic quickly when they get old.

Of course, there are some older wizards who possess powerful magic, but due to physical reasons, this magic will not last long.

However, the heritage of the tribal wizards is very long, and the strength of the three great wizards cannot be compared with that of ordinary wizards.

Especially after seeing that the old Spirit Tree Wizard could control plants at will, Leighton Gavin put away his contempt for the three old wizards in front of him.

"Thank you for the hospitality, Great Witch."

Leighton Gavin took the teacup from the vine branches and took a sip.

“The taste is very unique, more fragrant than the tea I drank in Snow Eagle Mountain.”

Seeing that the attitude of the spellcaster on the opposite side had improved, the three great wizards no longer concealed it.

"The spellcaster you mentioned has been petrified by our high priest and imprisoned in the dungeon."

puff~
"Petrification? Dungeon? How is this possible?"

Vice Admiral Dylan Taft spat out the tea he had just drunk.

A two-star court mage.

The Federation and the Maynila Empire had been at war for over 30 years, and had never captured a court mage of this caliber.

A small tribal island, why!
