Wizard: I brought the wrong system...

Chapter 471 Calm Beneath the Torrent

Regardless of their social status or personal strength, the gray-robed elder had no need to waste words with them.

The masked apprentices were filled with doubt and fear, but they dared not show the slightest disrespect.

With the senior apprentices getting so close, these junior apprentices had no chance to resist.

"What are your orders, sir?"

The old man said gently:

"I need you to return to the resource area we just left and continue deeper inside. Don't worry, I'll move the guards away. Take as much as you want there, and destroy what you can't take."

The masked apprentices exchanged glances, a vague guess forming in their minds.

"But... sir, aren't you... a member of the Fernando wizarding family?" the older apprentice asked cautiously.

The old man smiled, a hint of amusement in his eyes: "Young men, things aren't always as simple as they seem. I do indeed bear the surname Fernando, but how many others share that surname?"

He asked himself and answered, "Besides the dozen or so mortal members of the royal family of the Saint Fernando Empire, there are more than a thousand wizard apprentices who inherit this noble surname. But apart from a few members of the main family, how much benefit do we, the branches, actually receive?"

"So you don't need to worry, at least this time, I'm standing with you."

……

Dark plains, at the gate of a secluded castle.

The wizard apprentice, dressed in a pristine white robe, waved his hand and calmly ordered, "Kill them all! Don't let anyone escape!"

"yes!"

A group of knights clad in silver-white armor and riding tall, unicorn-horned horses moved swiftly into action.

The resounding hoofbeats shook the earth, and the air seemed to freeze, each thud like a heavy hammer blow to people's hearts.

The castle guards were terrified. The alarm blared, and someone shouted, "It's the Enchanted Knights of the Fernando Wizarding Family! Go and fetch the patriarch!"

The Enchanted Knights are formal knights who wear various main battle enchanted treasures.

Ordinary knights, clad in full heavy armor, are already invincible steel machines. If they were equipped with various magical treasures, each of them would possess the combat power to threaten even advanced apprentices.

Such powerful knightly orders rarely mobilize, but when they do, it's never for anything trivial.

The high walls were no match for these steel beasts; they either charged directly at them or took to the air on their mounts.

The gleaming weapons were stained with bright red blood.

Some brave soldiers managed to form small squads and put up a fierce resistance, but they were easily crushed by these ruthless knights.

Weapons clashed, and screams of agony echoed continuously!

"Stop! Stop!"

A middle-aged man rushed out of the castle, shouting anxiously, "This is the territory of the Korda family, personally granted by Lord Fernando! How dare you! How dare you do this! I'm going to report you, and you will all be severely punished!"

The middle-aged man's voice was filled with anger and disbelief.

At the castle gate, the wizard apprentice, dressed in a pristine white robe, calmly spoke:

"I know this is the territory of the Korda family. When you launched your unauthorized attack on the Fernando wizard family's resource area, didn't you foresee this day would come?"

"No! We absolutely did not do such a thing!" the middle-aged man protested in a panic.

The wizard apprentice in his pristine white robes said coldly, "You think we can't find evidence? But do we need evidence?"

"Continue, kill them all!"

Tree Spirit Forest, Bat Cave Underground Base, Library.

"Heri, you've already looked at the information I gave you. Calculate which parts of the armor need to be activated to perform this action."

Yaro pulled a piece of paper from the table and handed it to Heli. It had a drawing of a breakdown pose for "Blood Frenzy".

Heri took a look and couldn't help but laugh: "Lord Yaro, this posture is so strange, it looks like he's stretching."

This is a strange movement similar to sitting cross-legged, but with the body twisting and the arms raised high and swaying to one side.

Yaro continued his calculations, head down, and casually explained, "This movement is indeed stretching. Have you ever felt dizzy while stretching?"

Heryl shook her head: "I haven't encountered that."

"Well, that might be because you're young and have good vascular elasticity. Actually, when you stretch, all your muscles tense up, which puts extra pressure on your blood pressure. Blood that's pooled in your muscles is forced back to your heart, increasing the pressure on the blood vessels in your brain."

At this point, Yaro suddenly remembered something, looked up and smiled, "So, when you're young, take every opportunity to stretch, it can promote blood circulation. When you get older, you should try to reduce the number of times you stretch, because the blood vessels in your body may not be able to withstand the pressure, and it may cause the blood vessels to rupture."

Bard, who was practicing his moves nearby, asked curiously:

"Lord Yaro, is this 'blood frenzy' achieved by using the squeezing effect of muscles on blood to mobilize the life force absorbed into the body? Does that mean that life force is hidden in the blood? Is the life force of a formal knight also mobilized through the blood?"

Yaro shook his head and said, "The Blood Frenzy does indeed borrow from this knowledge, and it also utilizes energy concentration differences, the influence of emotions on the body, the effects of gravity, and so on."

As for how a formal knight invokes life force, I haven't become a formal knight, so I'm not entirely clear on that.

In fact, through the original "Blood Rage", Yaro had already made some guesses about the way a formal knight would utilize his life force.

It's unlikely that it was accessed via blood vessels.

For muscles and limbs, blood vessels are divided into arterial blood that enters and venous blood that exits.

If it's venous blood, it's just returning blood and won't provide any nutrition to the muscles.

But if it is arterial blood, which starts from the main trunk and is constantly subdivided, how can the vital energy be accurately and precisely delivered to the target muscle without being dispersed?

Therefore, the most likely scenario is that the fluid that traveled was actually tissue fluid.

"Although it may involve tissue fluid, we can see from the secret technique of Blood Rage that knights don't actually have the concept of 'meridians'. In other words, the knight's secret technique is that no matter what the intermediate path is, as long as the life force is sent to the 'destination', the requirements of the secret technique can be met."

This process is somewhat like the transportation of electricity; you just need to deliver the electricity directly to the destination and activate the organs there.

What Koyal wanted was to have these 'wires' intertwined and alternated, just like using 'wires' to create various electrical appliances.

Instead of simply using this 'electricity'.
