Two Worlds: I studied abroad at Hogwarts

Chapter 276 Under the Red Mist
The next morning, the moon had not yet set over the sea.

Lieutenant General Dylan has already woken up from his sleep.

His long years of military career have enabled him to develop good work and rest habits.

Even if he is seriously injured and needs rest, his brain will habitually wake him up at this time.

But today, Lieutenant General Dylan was woken up by his old comrade.

Last night, after the young high priest left, Leighton didn't sleep all night.

When the tribal warriors and troops outside woke up and heard some joyful shouts, the old general couldn't help but sigh.

It was amidst these sighs that Lieutenant General Dylan could not help but stand up and blame his old comrade.

"The situation is very good now, why are you sighing?"

Layton looked back at Lieutenant General Dylan and found that he was full of energy. Then he walked to the door of the tent and looked at the soldiers outside.

"Don't you notice anything wrong?"

"What's wrong? Are the Faithless plotting something? Or does the young high priest have some new plan?"

"Neither, look at your injuries!"

Lieutenant General Layton said this and walked back to the chair and sat down.

"What's so good about injuries? Wow!"

Lieutenant General Dylan was still a little confused, but he subconsciously raised his arms and found that all his injuries had healed.

He touched his chest again, which was the most seriously injured, and patted it hard a few times.

I couldn't feel any pain from the fracture anymore.

"I'm actually fine! Looks like I can teach those Faithless bastards a lesson today!"

Lieutenant General Dilan was surprised and happy, with an expression of disbelief on his face.

His hands unconsciously clenched into fists, and his joints crackled.

He was originally very worried, thinking that he would miss the next battle due to serious injuries.

But now he can go and wipe out the faithless again, which simply fulfills his biggest wish at the moment.

Layton sat aside, quietly watching Lieutenant General Dylan's reaction, but his brows were unconsciously twisted into a "川" shape.

The old general felt something unusual about the magic potion after Lu Shaman applied it to his wounds yesterday.

This potion is incredibly effective.

Later, when he learned that this potion was made by the mysterious young high priest, Layton was filled with worry.

In just a few days, he had been shocked countless times by the high priest.

Especially when he was fighting the Molten Sea Serpent yesterday, after feeling the power of Moon's magic, he knew that he had completely underestimated the other party.

He originally thought that Moon's position as high priest was due to his bloodline, but now he knows that this is not the case at all.

Years of war experience have made Layton develop the habit of reviewing the battle after the war.

After returning last night, he had been pondering Moon's fighting style.

Rapid attack capability, powerful and unknown attack angles, and absolute air superiority.
These are magics that the federal spellcasters do not master, and they are also the key to victory on the battlefield.

Of course, after seeing these magics, Layton has been thinking about how to deal with them.

Over the past few decades, the Federation has suffered from attacks from the Maynila Empire, and has also made considerable achievements in defensive magic.

The Spellcaster Academy has even created many defensive magic circles.

Whether it is defending against the evil magic attacks of the court wizard or the sky threat brought by the old fire dragon, these magic circles have performed well.

Now that I think about it, it would also be helpful in dealing with the rapid magic attacks of the tribal wizards.

But last night, the young high priest once again demonstrated his extraordinary ability to make potions, and the effects of the potions were very significant.

This surprised and disturbed Layton.

"How much more does this young high priest know?"

Layton has a soldier's consciousness. When a powerful and mysterious force appears near the country, he will unconsciously consider the other party as an opponent.

Although the war against the Faithless has not yet ended, Layton has already considered the tribal wizards led by Moon as future opponents.

What's more, in his opinion, the island where the tribal wizards were located was originally land under the jurisdiction of the federation.

This further satisfies the conditions for the two sides to become enemies.

"This potion is so good! Aren't your injuries completely healed?"

Hearing Layton's concern, Lieutenant General Dylan asked subconsciously before he could react.

"It's because it's so good! That's why it's worth worrying about."

Layton had already torn off all the bandages on his body, and all his wounds had healed.

He originally thought that if he encountered tribal wizards on the battlefield in the future, he might be able to crush them with his numbers.

But the potion that Moon mastered was equivalent to giving the soldiers a second life.

In this comparison, the federation's advantage is even smaller.

Considering the serious injury suffered by Lieutenant General Dylan yesterday, according to Layton's original prediction, he should rest for at least a hundred days before returning to the battlefield.

But now, only one night has passed, and this powerful spellcaster has regained his fighting strength.

This was what made Layton uneasy.

"I understand your concerns, but the tribal wizards only occupy a small island. Our strength is ten times theirs, so don't worry."

Lieutenant General Dylan clearly saw what Layton was thinking and comforted him softly.

"But wasn't the Maynila Empire originally ten times as powerful as the Federation? And now, isn't it still being blocked by us outside the Snow Eagle Mountain defense line?"

Layton's words left Lieutenant General Dylan speechless.

When the Federation was first established, only five cities responded. At the time, the Maynila Empire was probably a hundred times more powerful than the Federation. However, after the war, the God of Victory has always favored the Federation.

Now mysterious tribal wizards have appeared again in the territory of the Federation. It's like a cycle, making Layton feel powerless.

"Don't even think about it. It would be nice if we could drive the Faithless out of the archipelago. At least we can still recover our territory."

Hearing Dylan's words, Layton nodded helplessly.

Driving the Faithless out of the archipelago is also in the Federation's interest, which is why the two of them agreed to participate in this war.

But can the territory be truly recovered? Leighton began to wonder again.

As soon as the sky was getting light, all the senior leaders of the tribal wizards gathered again.

The next step is to discuss how to attack Fort Collin and rescue the hostages inside.

The two spellcasters were late, but Moon did not blame them. He just smiled and nodded to them.

"How are the injuries of the two lieutenant generals? Can they still participate in the battle today?"

Moon had noticed the two spellcasters after witnessing their magical abilities yesterday.

Although this is the first time that the tribal wizards have gone off the island to fight, in order to avoid heavy casualties on their side, Moon still hopes to have more comrades.

In Moon's opinion, the participation of two spellcasters could avoid many casualties among the tribe.

"I'm totally fine, High Priest. I didn't expect your potion to be so effective."

Lieutenant General Dilan no longer had any prejudice against tribal wizards. As soon as he saw Moon, he praised him generously.

"As long as it works, the level of this potion isn't very high. The fact that it works is beyond my expectation."

"Not high level! How is that possible?"

Lieutenant General Dylan reacted a little too strongly. After being reminded by Layton in the morning, the two of them carefully preserved the potion residue on the bandage.

They had originally planned to take the bandages back to the Federal Spellcaster Academy.

Ask the potion instructor in the academy to analyze it and see if the refining method can be restored.

Now Moon's words that the level is not high made them feel that they had finally stolen a golden bean, but it turned out to be a small stone that others didn't want.

In fact, what Moon said was true. Most of the potions he currently knew were basic potions for first-year students at Hogwarts.

This category includes hemostatic potions and bone-setting potions for treating external injuries.

Judging from the senior potion teaching materials provided by Cedric, the preparation of this potion will be optimized in future potion classes.

By then, the effects of the potions produced should be much better than they are now.

But Moon didn't explain it to them.

The two judges also walked to the conference table full of doubts and discussed today's combat arrangements.

"I will now tell you the exact information about the enemy."

Seeing that everyone was present, Zalan gestured to Moon and walked to the sand table.

"According to all the information currently available, there are 17 wizards and 3000 soldiers remaining in Fort Kolin. Each of the four walls is equipped with five cannons."

"There is a turtle-like magical creature in the castle with unclear magical abilities."

"The exact number of magical monsters transformed by the Faithless is unclear. Based on the intelligence reported by the four main cities, it is estimated that there are more than 20."

"Also, after midnight last night, a strange red fog rose outside Fort Collin, and the scouts who entered were unable to return."

After Zalan finished speaking, each participant expressed his or her opinions.

In terms of the number of personnel, Xingjin Island has both advantages and disadvantages.

In terms of wizard manpower, although the Faithless lost a lot of people, they still had the advantage.

In particular, the Faithless used magic to transform a group of monsters, and the strength of these monsters far exceeded that of ordinary people.

There is also a magical creature to deal with, which will distract the strength of the tribe's wizards.

As for ordinary people and the army, Xingjin Island has a clear advantage.

Last night, the rescued evangelicals and the oppressed islanders came to the camp to support Moon.

Even now, there are still some islanders from far away who, after hearing the news, take the trouble to rush to the outside of Fort Collin just to completely drive away the faithless.

Now the number of troops on the Xingjin Island side has reached 3, which is 10 times the number of soldiers in the castle.

However, in terms of weapons and equipment, the Faithless are more sophisticated.

At Zalan's suggestion, Moon only copied weapons for the few believers who could use muskets.

Most people still use cold weapons such as swords and knives.

"The musketeers will fire in sections in the front, while the spearmen and sword and shield soldiers will be ready to support the charge at any time. As for the wizards."

After Zalan finished explaining the arrangements for ordinary people, he looked at Moon again.

It was no longer his job to decide how the wizards should be arranged.

"High Priest, if it were you, I would just let me lead the men in and charge in. They can't see clearly because of the thick fog anyway."

Lang is still as reckless as ever.

But just as he finished speaking, the Great Wizard Hailan patted him on the back of the head.

"Listen to the High Priest's instructions and don't act on your own!"

After experiencing a series of battles, the tribal wizards became more and more confident in Moon.

They knew that although the plans made by their high priest were sometimes not perfect, they would often prioritize ensuring their own manpower.

On this basis, we can still achieve good results.

This also made the young tribal wizards more and more convinced of Moon.

"We must now find out what the Faithless are doing under the Red Mist."
