Two Worlds: I studied abroad at Hogwarts

Chapter 264 The Reasons for the End of the War

It’s no wonder that Federal Lieutenant General Dylan was surprised.

To them, the court wizard with two silver stars engraved on his mask was already a high-level combat force of the Maynila Empire.

After so many years of war, they had seen only a handful of two-star court mages.

A court mage of this level could easily break through the defensive line formed by the spellcasters whenever he appeared, and would also cause heavy casualties.

After the end of the Federation's War of Independence, a senior court wizard with a silver star engraved on his mask defected to the Federation. Only then did they gain some understanding of this wizarding organization that was only loyal to the Mad King.

The Maynila Empire also has its own set of ideas on the training of wizards.

Every time they recruited a young wizard with suitable talents, they would give him/her an iron mask.

The young wizards never asked each other for their names or identities. The only ideas they were instilled with were to become stronger and to be loyal to the Mad King.

Everything else should not exist in their minds.

The strength of the court mage can be distinguished according to the level of the mask he wears.

Apprentice: Iron Mask.

Apprentice Court Mage: Silver Mask.

Court Mage: Golden Mask.

Senior Court Mage: One-star gold mask.

Court Mage: Two-star gold mask.

Chief Mage of the Palace: Three-Star Gold Mask.

The court mage who defected to the Federation and became the vice-president of the Spellcaster Academy was previously a senior court mage wearing a one-star golden mask.

Lieutenant General Dylan and Leighton Gavin both studied magic with this vice-president.

Now they have all become high-level spellcasters in the Federation, and Leighton Gavin is even able to command all spellcasters in the Federation.

All the enemy secrets that were previously unknown to them are now revealed to them.

There were once sixteen senior court mages in the Maynila Empire, and they could be seen in every war.

Although a senior court mage later defected to the Federation, he was quickly replaced by the Empire.

Every high-ranking court wizard possesses powerful and destructive magic.

Some can release extremely poisonous fire lotuses that cannot be extinguished once touched.

Moreover, it burns extremely fast and can take a person's life in just a few breaths.

Some can mobilize water vapor in the air, which, when combined with their own magic, will form highly corrosive acid rain.

Weapons and equipment, food, livestock, and even soldiers in armor could not survive an acid rain.

Some of them master the strange and evil magic [Blood Curse], which can draw all the blood out of a person's head in a very short time.

Combined with a specially made magical creation: the blood robe.

Court mages can often sneak into military camps under the cover of night and kill military leaders and spellcasters.

The damage caused by these court mages was innumerable, and therefore they were Lieutenant General Layton's main target of defense on the war front.

As for the court wizard with two silver stars carved on his mask, Leighton Gavin had only seen him once.

That was ten years ago, in the later stages of the sovereignty war.

The federal army had already captured Iron Fort and Giant Ridge County City at that time. The army's morale was greatly boosted and there was plenty of food and grass.

It also occupies the Snow Eagle Mountain, which provides an advantageous terrain overlooking the Maynila Empire.

There is every hope of invading the heartland of the Menila Empire and achieving greater results.

At that time, there were even radical military personnel who proposed to attack Glorious City and capture the Mad King alive.

But it was in a battle after that that three court wizards appeared.

They cooperated with each other very well, and the magic they mastered had astonishing damage power.

At that time, they were the vanguard, leading other court mages and a large number of imperial soldiers.

In just one day, the federal army lost tens of thousands of men. At that time, no federal spellcaster could stop them.
Later, because the damage caused by the court wizard was too shocking, the morale of the federal army was completely broken.

Old Marshal Antolov had no choice but to order the army to withdraw to Snow Eagle Mountain and use the advantageous terrain for defense.

This battle not only ended the ten-year war for federal sovereignty, but also caused the old marshal to abandon all other matters after the war and focus solely on training spellcasters. Both Leighton Gavin and Lieutenant General Dylan witnessed this battle.

The two-star court wizard was unstoppable on the battlefield, which shocked them to the point where they never faded.

Even though their current magical strength has far surpassed what it was before, they still cannot guarantee that they can capture a court wizard of this level.

But looking at the three old men opposite, their words and attitudes were very sincere, and they didn't seem to be lying at all.

"The one you caught wasn't an imposter, was he?"

Lieutenant General Dylan still looked incredulous.

He had led his troops to attack Xingjin Island and knew that among this group of tribal wizards, the three old men in front of him had the highest magical powers.

But they were all too old, and for some reason, the young tribal wizards had not grown up.

After the last fight, he found that the only ones who could pose a threat to him were three old wizards.

If the person they captured was really a two-star court wizard, how could this be possible!
After all, he knew that he could not be a match for a court mage of this level.

"We don't care if he's an imposter or not, there are two stars on his mask anyway."

The tone of the Great Wizard Hai Lan was still very disdainful, he didn't care whether the other party believed it or not.

Anyway, he knew that if the high priest had not taken action that night, his son Lang would probably have gone to see the ancestors early.

Even if he was there at the time, he could not prevent this situation.

"you."

Lieutenant General Dylan wanted to say something else, but Layton interrupted him again.

"Can we visit the high priest of your ministry?"

As someone who had been tracking the court mage and came to the Vena Islands, Layton obviously got more information than Lieutenant General Dylan.

He knew that the court mage could not be an imposter and was of a very high level.

In the conversation just now, he clearly grasped the key points that the great witch said.

High Priest, Petrification, Dungeon.
Since he was petrified and imprisoned in a dungeon, it proves that the court wizard is not in alliance with the tribal wizard.

The first purpose of his trip has been achieved.

The next thing we need to understand is this mysterious high priest.

If he could really capture the Grand Mage, how powerful was he, and what was his attitude towards the Federation?

As the leader of the federal spellcasters, Layton must figure out these issues.

The great wizard Hai Lan did not have any good feelings towards the two spellcasters in front of him, and he subconsciously prepared to refuse.

However, the Great Star Wizard spoke in advance.

"Okay, please wait a moment. We will send someone to call the high priest over."

When on Moon Island, the Star Wizard had a comprehensive understanding of the successor of the mysterious high priest.

He knew that Moon's hometown was the Gracia Federation.

Although they have now become the high priests of Xingjin Island, they cannot stop their fellow countrymen from visiting Moon.

After the Star Shaman finished speaking, he summoned the shaman from his tribe: Han.

Give him the broomstick and return to the High Priest from the Central Volcano as soon as possible.

The Han shaman did not hesitate after receiving the order, and even felt a little excited after taking the flying broom.

Without saying anything more, he got on his broom, kicked off, and rushed out of the skylight of the reception room.

"Flying Sky Magic!"

After seeing the tribal wizard flying, Lieutenant General Dylan stood up suddenly and his words became a little stammering.

boom!
Leighton Gavin even crushed the teacup in his hand, and his tone suddenly became colder.

"Why didn't you report this to the Federation?"

“I just found out about this too~”
