Chapter 45: The Clown's Action
"City of the Sky? Kingdom of Holm?" Mercury blurted out in surprise.
The Hanging and the Reindeer also said incredible: "Lentat? Near the capital?!"
This was completely beyond their expectations. Like Lucien before, they never thought that the Magical Parliament could exist so openly, in an orthodox kingdom that was not declared as a heretical country by the church and an evil country. It seems that it is no less than the rule of the ancient magical empire.
In their original idea, the Magic Council was either deep in the dark mountains, in a certain alien space or semi-plane, and then connected to the main material world through a hidden magic array.
Except for the great nobles such as Earls Hain and Earl Rafati who had long guessed the location of the headquarters of the Magical Council from the rumored Madam, Viscount Klein, who was confirmed by Lucien, who seemed calm, the other magical apprentices expressed their shock more or less, fast or slow.
Lucien, who carefully distinguished whether they were surprised or not, laughed and said, "Don't doubt, the headquarters of the Magical Parliament is in Arlinge, and has received the acquiescence of the nobles of the Holm Kingdom. His strength has completely overwhelmed the church forces in the kingdom. If the church had not spent a huge price to arrange strict protection in the Lucky Cathedral, and had enough time to wait for the Cardinal Order of Reims to come to help, and with the idea of the nobles maintaining balance, the Holm Kingdom would have been completely controlled by the Parliament."
"Really? Professor?" Mercury asked a little unbelievable. In the heart of her young girl born in the Principal of Waurit and raised in the Principal of Waurit, the church is unparalleled and powerful, and it is threatening countless different dimensions. If it weren't for the division between the north and the south, it would have left herself and the magicians without any way to live. It is incredible that the Magical Council can actually grow into a giant that competes with the church in some ways.
This is the question of most magic apprentices, even the "Sages" are no exception. The nobles may feel that the kingdoms such as Holm across the Storm Strait are a little abnormal - because they rarely know the situation there from books and stories, but only the nobles who are qualified to sit in the same VIP box with the Grand Duke can know exactly the bad situation there.
Lucien briefly explained the development history of the Magical Parliament, the achievements of the great arcanes, and the current status of the Magical Parliament, and finally said: "The Parliament is already the second most powerful force in the continent. In Alinhe, you can get the opportunity to learn arcane and magic for free, study magic openly, exchange experiences and exchange materials without worrying about being captured by the church, and you can get your status, identity and wealth through magic."
There is no inciting tone or exaggerated expression, and just plain narrative words that make mercury, hangers and others tremble and are overwhelmed. People who have never experienced similar experiences can imagine a dark and depressed mood, suddenly seeing the light and seeing a better future in danger and pain.
Even Mercury, who is good at keeping calm, had a nearly choked tone at this moment: "Professor, Professor, how should we go? I think the church must have blocked the straits and borders. Can you take us there?"
This sentence suddenly woke other magic apprentices up. Yes, the light has not really arrived yet, and the darkness is still in danger ahead.
"I have my own business, and I can't send you there." Lucien first refused to help, then told them the two routes, and finally said: "If you have flying objects, you can consider taking the northern Shahland route. If you don't have one, go to Sturk to find ferrymen. After their observation and test, you will have the opportunity to go to Alyn's. By the way, if you have not become a formal magician when you arrive in Sturk, you need to show your potential and ability."
Lucien did not disclose Grandeuf's identity, because there were likely church spies among these magic apprentices, so he just told them how to find ferrymen.
Sturk's Magical Council liaisons learned the lessons of serious losses a few years ago. For all magicians and magic apprentices, there is a strict process of observation, inquiry, identification, and testing. Even if the spy reveals the news and makes the night watchmen change their identities, it will be difficult to penetrate.
Mercury calmed down and said thankfully: "Thank you, Mr. Professor, if you have the chance, I hope to see you in Arlinge." Like the sage, she had no doubt about Lucien's last words.
Other magic apprentices also did not express their objections. They have always understood that there is nothing that does not require a price to pay. If you want to get help from the Magical Council, you must show what is worth helping.
"I hope you can tell the news to other magic circles, and don't hide it selfishly, so that everyone has a chance to choose." Lucien reminded him, and then smiled sinisterly: "By the way, after tonight, you'd better change your identities and hide places. I'm worried that other magic circles will have spies, and the church does not need the guys who already know that the headquarters of the Magic Council are located to maintain the illusion of the circle..."
"Yes, Mr. Professor!" Mercury and others were stunned at first, and then answered seriously, without doubting Lucien's words. He had personally dealt with a traitor and killed more than 20 night watchmen! At the same time, he must be cautious and cautious, and no one would like to fall down when approaching the light quickly.
The strange quiet lasted for a while, and the cold voice of the hanger said enthusiastically: "Mr. Professor, I heard you mention the basics of arcane and magic, and I also know that you are a knowledgeable intermediate magician. Can you give us a brief introduction to this aspect? We can choose our materials."
"The content of the introduction is free in the parliament. I don't take advantage of you, just talk about it." Lucien said in a simple and hoarse tone. I can't say that I don't even look down on the materials you put here.
"Sir, please explain."
After hearing Lucien's words, everyone, including the sage, stood up and saluted solemnly with the etiquette of the ancient magic empire to the teacher.
Next, Lucien explained to them the current arcane and magic system using a method that established the "arcane" thinking from the beginning. They were stunned and incredible. This was very different from what they had learned before, but they had extraordinary gains when trying to analyze magic.
Unlike the last time I saw the journal Arcane, they didn’t understand it at that time. After getting Lucien’s in-depth and easy-to-understand narration, they felt that a new door seemed to be opened in front of them, and behind the door was so deep and vast!
Until the secret gathering ended, the wise man and others were still immersed in the "new world" and could not extricate themselves. Even in some places that were inconsistent with their past cognition, the professor was reasonable and convincing!
With their current level and obstruction, in an environment without the teachings of high-level figures, it is difficult to have a solid cognitive world, and it is the time when the sponge body is crazyly absorbing various knowledge.
After leaving the underground secret room, the wise man, Mercury and others lined up again and solemnly held his forehead with his right hand and saluted: "I hope I will have the opportunity to listen to your teachings in the future, Mr. Professor."
After the teaching and teaching just now, the professors are no longer just a big figure in the purification sequence, a terrifying magician, but also a vaguely incarnation of the Magic Council representing the ocean of arcane and magic knowledge.
Lucien smiled and said, "My students all hate me very much. If there is a chance, I hope you don't regret it."
"Ah?" The puzzled Mercury and others witnessed the professor and the wise leaving together.
…………
Some secret place in the Alto sewer.
"What? The professor appeared in Alto?!" The clown stood up suddenly, and the deep dark eyes on his funny smile seemed to burn two flames to hold Juliana who was venturing on the news.
Juliana was excited and trembling: "Yes, just an hour ago, he attended the party in the original magic circle and had confirmed his identity! This is the news that the spy we placed in that circle received the first reward!"
The professor is a famous figure in the purification sequence, and spies dare not delay it.
The clown suddenly became quiet and silent, and then he burst out laughing, laughing so crazy and desolate: "Lucion returned to Alto, and the professor appeared in Alto. If they had no close relationship, I would go to the stolen rack by myself! The great people of the church, you can see it now!"
"Captain, please wait for good news. As long as you catch the professor and prove the way out, Sean Evans, it is the time when you return to the referee openly!" Julianna said happily.
The clown shook his head: "No, I have to seize the opportunity, I want to catch the professor with my own hands!"
"Captain, aren't you worried that it was the professor's conspiracy? He was so sinister and cunning! Look, Lucien had just recovered from illness and he was likely to target you! Let's just send us out. One of the three leaders of the referees must be dispatched. They are high-level, and they can handle any conspiracy!" Juliana was still scared of the professor's viciousness, so she quickly dissuaded the clown.
The three heads of the Vaurit Judgment are all sixth-level Sky Knights. Although their strength is much worse than the two seventh-level Cardinals, they are more than enough to deal with the professor. No matter how strong the conspiracy is, under the absolute strength, the thin snow shining under the sun, which melts as soon as it is sunny.
The clown shook his head firmly: "I'm worried that a big man will suppress it, delay time and make the professor alert, so I must seize the time so that I can avenge the more than 20 dead teammates. Moreover, Juliana, I will not be reckless, I will never forget the lessons of the Melze Black Forest in my life! I will only arrest the professor unless I have complete confidence. If not, I would rather wait for you."
The most important thing is that the clown has no idea what the professor has for him, and killing himself seems meaningless to him.
"Okay, captain, be careful!" Juliana saw that the clown was determined and did not persuade her again.
The clown laughed and said, "Professor may not have thought that the information of the sage has been firmly grasped by us! This will be the main reason for his defeat!"
Although there are many magic apprentices and it is not convenient to investigate one by one, so as not to alarm others, the sages and owls who have been closely related to the professor and have acted together are exceptions. The night watchmen who are eager to revenge have spent several months mastering their information through spies, but they have been triggered and not released. As a result, the owl died in the remains before it even took effect.
In Alto, if you can't even investigate this information, what will the clown and others use to deal with the professor!
"Captain, hurry up. It's best to find the professor before we arrive. Otherwise, you will be in trouble if you meet other night watchmen." Juliana reminded that her captain is still on the list of night watchmen arresting! (To be continued. Please search Piaotianwen, the novel is better, updated and faster!)
