Plane Overlord of Rebirth

Chapter 656 Archmage Hilton
"To the wasteland?" Chen Ning asked, a little confused.

"Yes, we are leaving in three days." Lin Ao said, he took out a pocket watch from his pocket, looked at the time, and said, "Sorry, Edward, I am going to attend a combat meeting now, wait for me Come back and we will talk in detail. Until then, Hilton and Gerrard will be with you."

"Okay." Chen Ning said quickly, "I won't disturb your business."

Watching Lin Ao leave, Chen Ning said, "Can you tell me in detail about the expedition in three days' time?"

Gerald shook his head and said: "Lin Ao is gone, I have to deal with the whole camp, these guys have a lot of experience, I'm afraid something will happen if I'm not here, so I'm sorry. But it's okay, Hilton will have a good talk with you, and there will be more conversations between the two mages."

Then Gerald also left the room.Now in the room, only he and Hilton were left.

Sheldon looked about 25 years old, and his face was a little pale, which is a common feature of many Orodic mages.This young archmage was obviously not a very talkative person. After Gerald left, he didn't speak first, but looked at Chen Ning silently, not knowing what he was thinking.

Under Hilton's gaze, Chen Ning seemed a little unnatural.An introverted, silent, and quiet mage is a very difficult object for many people to deal with.

However, no matter how difficult it was to deal with, Chen Ning didn't want to just stare at Gerald or Lin Ao with Hilton's big eyes and small eyes. The scene felt awkward even thinking about it.

For mages, they are usually not very willing to chat with ordinary people about ordinary topics. With this spare time, they would rather do two magic experiments or meditate to accumulate magic power, or simply sit quietly. Think about something on the side.Therefore, using ordinary topics, don't let the archmage talk to me.Of course, as Gerrard said before, asking about the expedition in three days is also a good opportunity to start the topic.However, if only relying on this topic, it is estimated that Hilton would fall silent again after giving him a brief explanation. This is not in line with Chen Ning's purpose of establishing a good relationship with the other party.

However, Chen Ning quickly found a topic.What's the best way to talk to a mage?Of course it's best to talk about magic!Various spell structures, ideas for improvement, communication on spellcasting skills, ideas for magic experiments... There are simply too many to communicate with!In fact, Chen Ning is not a real Orodic world school mage. Maybe he knows some spellcasting skills, but he doesn't know anything about the experience exchange of magic experiments.However, who made him, the plane traveler, the most shameful cheater in this multiverse?At the beginning, in order to improve his spellcasting ability, he spent a lot of law power on the knowledge-based ability of [Arcane Knowledge].Although it is impossible for him to rely on this arcane knowledge to complete independent arcane research without practical experience, it is still possible to exchange "experience" with a great mage.

At the beginning, Sheldon only regarded Chen Ning as an equal object to exchange some experience with.Although Chen Ning also has the ability to cast spells with five rings, and has a matching arcane knowledge, but Hilton himself is a six-ring archmage, so he is better than Chen Ning in this respect.But the more we talked, the more interested Hilton became.Chen Ning's arcane knowledge is indeed consistent with his own spellcasting ability, but the arcane knowledge improved through the power of law does not have any knowledge defects.

For example, Chen Ning now has the arcane knowledge that matches that of a five-ring arcanist, so he can fully understand all the arcane knowledge that a five-ring arcanist can understand.This is a goal that mages can hardly achieve through normal study in the real world. Everyone will encounter what they are good at and what they are not good at in the process of learning. Naturally, in terms of knowledge, there will also be Each missing.But Chenning, the cheater, did not have it at all!

Therefore, when Hilton chatted with Chen Ning, he found that although Chen Ning did not have very profound knowledge, he was knowledgeable enough. In terms of arcane knowledge below the level of the fifth ring, Chen Ning basically had no difference. got it.Some of the questions were so biased that even Hilton didn't know about them, but Chen Ning was always able to answer them in one sentence, which surprised him the most.

"Unexpectedly, Mr. Edward is still a very knowledgeable person. It is hard to imagine that Lin Ao said that you studied in the Department of Battle Mage at Red Moon Academy, but your level of knowledge is better than most of the academic mages. .” He sighed with emotion.

Chen Ning hummed twice.Now, the relationship between the two has improved by leaps and bounds after some exchanges and conversations.It's an exaggeration to refer to each other as confidants, but it's really not easy to be able to chat with a high-level mage.

And especially when Chen Ning opened up the chatterbox with the other party, he also immediately felt that Sheldon was not really bad at words, on the contrary, in terms of magic communication, it was completely inconsistent with his appearance, this Said man!The topic got farther and farther away, and the conversation got deeper and deeper, which made Chen Ning feel a little uncomfortable.He just wanted to get closer to the other party, but he didn't want to really chat with Hilton about magic knowledge for a day!
So, change the subject decisively.

"By the way, Lin Ao said before that he will leave Blood Wolf Castle in three days and go to the Eastern Wasteland. What's going on?"

"Oh." Hilton thought for a while. For those things that have nothing to do with magic and arcane arts, this high-level mage showed unparalleled slowness.He thought for a few minutes before answering: "It's like this. Three days ago, after we repelled an onslaught of orcs, the headquarters decided to take the initiative to attack. That attack defeated the orcs in the city. At that time, the blood wolf The garrison of the fortress pursued under the leadership of the commander. However, an elder shaman of the orcs summoned the power of legendary spells at the cost of his life, stopped the attacking coalition forces, and caused us to suffer a devastating blow A blow. Our losses were huge, not one out of ten troops fled back to Blood Wolf Castle, and even the legendary paladin of the Kingdom of Meazza, General Liszt, died in battle.”

"In addition to the army that died on the spot, we also had a large number of troops who were scattered during the battle and could not return. Instead, they were forced into the wasteland. Three days later, our mercenary group will set off and leave Blood Wolf Fort, enter the wilderness, wipe out the orc troops, prevent them from gathering their routs, regroup their troops, and find a way to contact our troops who were forced into the wilderness as much as possible."
