Fulilian: The Little Master Who Doesn't Understand Love

Chapter 212: Discovering Clues and Creating Magic

"No, Volame." Ella's voice suddenly became sharp. She squatted down and brushed her fingers across an inconspicuous black stone on the ground that was half-hidden by sand.

The stone had a smooth surface and an unnatural charred black. "Look at this."

Volame took a closer look and immediately reacted.

This is not a natural stone.

This is clearly the residue formed by some kind of building material that began to melt at extremely high temperatures and then cooled naturally.

There was even a very faint trace of dark magic erosion remaining on it.

"This is... the building material for the elf village!" Her voice trembled slightly with excitement.

Volame remembered that the cottage where teachers Lord and Celie lived in seclusion had similar materials.

at last!

It wasn't nothing, so they found the clue.

Moreover, the magical aura of the residue has not completely dissipated, which means that the incident must not have happened for too long.

Hope ignited in the hearts of both of them like wildfire.

They immediately searched carefully around the debris.

Soon, a little further away from the elf village, they found more similar charred stones, as well as huge collapsed and broken ancient trees and some building ruins that had not been dealt with in time.

It was obvious that this elven village had been destroyed not long ago, and the demons had not had time to thoroughly clean up and cover up all traces.

"These damn guys!"

Ella looked at the ruins in front of her, and even the elves, who were relatively indifferent to emotions, were filled with murderous intent at this moment.

At this moment, several figures flashed out from behind a pile of rocks in the distance. The horns on their heads revealed their identities as demons. It seemed that they were a demon team clearing the last traces.

"Who is it!?" The leading demon immediately spotted Volame and Ella standing on the edge of the ruins.

However, when he saw the faces of the two people clearly, or rather, when he saw the magical aura on the two people, his eyes widened instantly.

In his vision, the magic power around the human girl was not much but extremely dense, while the magic power around the elves beside her was incomparably vast. Only an elven magician who had lived for hundreds of years could accumulate such a large amount of magic power.

This is definitely not an existence that they can provoke at their level.

He might even be a magician on the level of Lord Qibengxian.

"Retreat first!"

The demon turned around and ran without hesitation. Although the other demons didn't understand why, they reacted instantly when they saw their captain lose his composure and fled desperately in different directions.

"Want to run!?" A cold light flashed in Volame's eyes. How could she let these executioners escape so easily?
She immediately cast a spell, which was one of the spells that Teacher Celia taught her, the Vine and Thorn.

Rumble!
The earth began to shake.

Countless thick magical thorns instantly broke out of the ground. They grew wildly and then rolled accurately towards the demons who were escaping a little slower.

The two unlucky guys were caught off guard and were entangled by several thorns. The hooks pierced their flesh, making them unable to move instantly.

However, the leading demon and two other guys with extremely quick reactions quickly cast magic just before the thorns wrapped around them, temporarily repelling the thorns released by Volame.

They did not dare to fight any longer, and with the cover of the surrounding terrain, they disappeared from sight after a few takeoffs and landings.

"Damn it!" Volame waved the wand in his hand unwillingly.

The range of her magic was limited, and the other party fled in different directions. She released magic to hinder them, but in the end, a few of them still escaped.

On the other side, Ella had already appeared in front of the two demons who were tied up like dumplings with thorns.

In order to torture the demons, Lord once invented a unique mental magic that could directly use mental shock to destroy the demons' will, thus forcing them to tell everything they knew.

This was the magic he had used when he had questioned Graosam.

However, the side effects of this magic are serious. After asking a few questions, the other party will completely lose the ability to speak and eventually become an idiot.

Lord had no intention of passing this magic on to others, but considering that Ella was Celia's disciple, he taught her anyway.

So Ella used this mental magic on the two demons without hesitation.

The two demons' originally clear eyes suddenly became dull. It was obvious that Ella's magic had taken effect.

"Answer my questions." The situation was urgent, so Ella asked directly, "Who sent you? What is your purpose? Where is your next target?"

"General Balzat's orders!" one of the demons answered instinctively. "He's responsible for clearing out the elven villages in the northwest of the continent, leaving no survivors. He must also erase all traces to prevent discovery."

Balzac?

Volame walked over quickly, his brow furrowed.

She had never heard of this name before.

"Is he Qibengxian?" she asked in a deep voice, her tone serious.

Volame remembered that teachers Lord and Celie mentioned that the Seven Collapse Sages were the top seven strongest among the demons, and each of them possessed great power.

Although these so-called Seven Collapse Sages may not be difficult opponents for other teachers, they are already a formidable foe for ordinary magicians.

Volame is no exception.

However, she remembered that when the two teachers mentioned the name of the Seven Bengxian, Teacher Celie always glared at Teacher Lord inexplicably, and sometimes even said, "It's all your fault."

Volame was very confused about this, but she didn't dare to ask more questions.

Now that she was facing a situation where Qi Bengxian might be leading the team himself, she was not sure of winning.

"General Balzat is not one of the Seven Collapse Sages." Another captured demon replied blankly: "Although General Balzat is powerful, he is not one of the Seven Collapse Sages.

The Seven Collapse Sages are like Lord Mahat and Lord Bezer, and General Balzat is just one of the generals of the legion directly under His Majesty the Demon King."

Not the Seven Bengxian.

Volame and Ella looked at each other and saw a hint of understanding in each other's eyes.

Since he is not the top fighter among the demons, that's easy to say.

But General Balzac was someone who could command a covert operation of this scale and handle it so perfectly that the two of them hadn't found any clues until now. He was definitely not someone to be underestimated.

"What is your next target? Where is that Balzac now?" Volame asked.

"General Balzat usually leads the team to clear out the elven villages himself. His next target is an elven village about three days' journey to the northwest."

After obtaining the key information, Volame and Ella no longer hesitated and quickly dealt with the two demons.

"Let's go!" Volame said quickly

We must arrive before the demons and prevent another tragedy. We cannot allow the tragedy of our village to repeat itself before our eyes!
Volame made up his mind secretly.

"Let's use flying magic! Walking is too slow." Ella suggested.

She and Volame both knew flying magic, but they rarely used it when traveling, relying on walking most of the time.

Flying magic consumes a lot of magic power from the magician, and most magicians will not use it unless it is necessary.

"Ok."

The two men set off immediately and rushed towards the northwest.

During the journey, Volame's brows were never relaxed.

The scene of the demons running away immediately after discovering them replayed in her mind over and over again, and this had happened once before.

She vaguely remembered Teacher Lord's teachings:
Demons can use magic perception to judge the magic power of the magician fighting against them, and thus choose a more advantageous fighting style.

The two teachers never concealed their magical aura because they were very powerful and familiar enough with the demons to not easily give them a chance to escape.

But I am not good enough now.

I'm not strong enough.

"The breath of magic..." Volame muttered to herself, and an idea flashed through her mind like lightning. "Since the demons can judge the strength of their opponents by sensing their radiating magic, then can I disguise my own magic power?"

She was thinking as she flew.

What if he could completely restrain his own magical power so that the demons couldn't see him at all, or even be more subtle and disguise himself as a weak being to lure the enemy deeper?
"Sister Ella," Volame suddenly spoke, "you know how to absorb your own life force and blend it into nature. So, can magic achieve a similar effect?"

A hint of surprise flashed in Ella's eyes when she heard this. "It's true that elves can blend into nature to a certain extent through their talents, thus reducing their presence, but that's more like a disguise. What do you mean?"

"I want to use magic to restrain my magic power or disguise myself to make myself look weaker?"

Ella understood what she meant instantly.

This is to prevent the demons from easily detecting their strengths and weaknesses through perception.

“Volamei, your idea is very bold.

However, it is very difficult to completely restrain or change the external form of a magician's original magic power.

I've never heard of magic with similar effects, perhaps a completely new magical framework and formula is needed."

"That's equivalent to creating magic." Volame continued.

"Yes! It's very difficult! Apart from Teacher Celia and Mr. Lord, I haven't seen any other race be able to create this kind of new magic.

Even a large part of humanity's existing magic system is derived from the magic originally created by Mr. Lord.

Ah! You should know this, right? About Mr. Lord?

Ella suddenly remembered that she hadn't asked Volame in front of her if he knew about Mr. Lord? Did he know that he was the oldest magician in the human race?
"Yes, I know! And I've also read about the Origin Magic Book that Mr. Lord participated in compiling."

"That's good! Anyway, this is a very difficult thing."

"I know it's difficult," Volame's eyes were unusually firm, with an air of unwillingness to admit defeat, "but what happened just now is the best example."

"If our magic were less conspicuous, we might be able to get closer to our targets, rather than having them flee the moment they see us.

And just like Mr. Lord, he always gives people an unfathomable feeling. It is difficult for you to perceive the terrifying power hidden in his body. "

Volame recalled the figure of Teacher Lord, who seemed ordinary but contained terrifying power. That was exactly the realm she longed for.

She clenched her fists, a clear goal forming in her mind.

"I'm going to try to create a new magic! One that can hide or disguise one's own magical aura!"

Ella looked at the determination in Volame's eyes and just smiled without saying anything else.

The human girl's growth rate and magical talent always surprised her.

She suddenly understood why Mr. Lord also wanted to accept the other party as his apprentice.

After leaving the noisy wedding, Lord and Celie's journey continued.

They did not deliberately speed up their pace, but maintained that leisurely pace.

In Lord's hand, the bouquet of flowers that symbolized good luck was preserved by him using a solidification magic. It lay quietly in his backpack, becoming a special existence on this journey.

A few days later, they arrived at a large human city famous for its magic research.

The first magic academy of mankind is located in this city. At the same time, the first magic book of mankind written by Holy King Norn and God Slayer Lord is also kept here.

In the center of the city stands a magnificent white building, with ancient magical runes and a relief of an open book engraved above the gate.

Obviously this is a building similar to a library.

"Let's go in and take a look?" Lord looked at the tall building in front of him with a barely perceptible trace of nostalgia in his eyes.

Celie nodded. Actually, she wasn't very interested in human book collections, but since Lord wanted to read them, it wouldn't hurt to accompany him.

As you enter the library, you are greeted by a solemn atmosphere.

Beneath the towering dome, there are layers upon layers of enormous bookshelves that stretch to the horizon.

The bookshelf is so large that it is likely that all the books in human history are collected here, and it is not an exaggeration to say that some foreign classics may even be included.

There were quite a few people inside, scholars in white robes or apprentices who came here to look up books. They would deliberately lower their voices when talking to each other so as not to disturb the solemnity of the occasion.

Celia was quite satisfied with this quiet environment.

She paced casually, her eyes scanning the titles of the books on the bookshelf, most of which were boring things such as history and philosophy.

"Aren't there any books about magic?" she asked Lord, who was flipping through a history book.

"Maybe it's up there! After all, magic can't be displayed openly like these."

Celie nodded in approval.

She still feels that magic is a special thing, not something that anyone can learn.

Although this concept has been restrained a lot under Lord's influence, the core demands have not changed.

The two walked up the stairs but were stopped at the entrance.

"The area ahead is for magic books. Only magicians can enter. Please show us your magician qualification certificates!" one of the guards said.

"Well, what is a magician qualification certificate?" Lord frowned.

He suddenly began to understand how Fulilian felt in the original novel when she was stopped and asked to show her magician certificate.
