Chapter 175 Big move, Carly's thinking
"Dean, I'll think about it for a few days." Lucian maintained his apparent calmness.
"This matter does need to be properly considered. There is no rush. Anyway, the preliminary preparation will take at least two or three years." The gray-bone wizard smiled and nodded, looking extremely tolerant.
But he soon changed the subject and talked about another thing.
"By the way, I remember that there is an idle wizard organization called the 'Bone Alliance' active on the west side of Ashbone Academy? I remember hearing that they intercepted our academy's transport airship. During this time, they also Are you active?"
"The Bone Alliance?" Lucian frowned slightly when he heard the name, but with the excellent memory of a formal wizard, he quickly found information about this wizard organization.
This is a wandering wizard organization. You can even call them a group of wandering thieves who have mastered wizard training methods. The leader is an official wizard who drives a bone airship and wanders around the borders of several big wizard organizations, relying on robbery to survive.
"This wizarding organization is still there, and its leader is still Butters Van Dijk, who calls himself 'Captain Sue'..."
"Very good." The gray-bone wizard looked at Lucian with a smile, "I feel that this wizard organization has affected the development of the college, so... destroy it, and then capture 'Captain Sue' Butters Van Dijk alive."
Destroyed the Bone Alliance? Because it affects the development of the college?
Hearing the Gray Bones Wizard's instructions and reasons, Lucian felt a little ridiculous.
Although the Bone Alliance is a small wizard organization that survives through robbery, they are not actually very harmful to the Ashbone Academy. To a certain extent, the two sides have reached a tacit understanding and balance that goes without saying.
With the Bone Alliance and some micro wizard organizations as buffers, there is a gray isolation zone between Ashes Academy and the tower, and this gray isolation zone is even more beneficial to Ashes Academy.
"There is no need to worry about the Bone Alliance's revenge or the Bones' ability to escape."
The Gray Bones Wizard looked at Lucian, who was bowing his head in deep thought. He seemed to think that Lucian was having trouble with the flexible flying ability and escape speed of the Bones. He waved his hand gently, and suddenly countless small shadow pythons emerged from the ground of the Gray Bones Academy. Finally, the snake mother that Lucian had seen before in the underground library gathered together in front of the Gray Bones Wizard.
At this time, the latter was holding a scepter in his hand.
The scepter is made of a special jade-like arm bone, and a gray-white crystal is inlaid in the original hand bone position. The scepter itself attracts the surrounding shadow airflow to gather around it, and even Lucian felt a chill that seemed to come from his soul.
"This is the scepter of gray bones, and it is also the most precious witchcraft tool in the academy." The wizard of gray bones smiled, and at the same time controlled the snake mother, and handed the scepter to Lucian. "While you are the dean of the college, you can borrow this scepter for free."
"As long as you carry the ash bone scepter and perform the internal sealing witchcraft [ash bone sealing technique], let alone a Bones airship, even a real wizard airship will lose most of its flight capabilities. The wizards above will definitely be weakened by the influence of the sealing technique..."
The Gray Bones Wizard introduced to Lucian in detail this powerful witchcraft tool that could be used by some second-level wizards. However, the meaning of his words was also very obvious, that is, he urged Lucian to take people to destroy the Bone Alliance as soon as possible and capture the "accuser" alive. Captain Dead" Butters.
After taking the scepter, Lucian nodded slightly, "I will handle this matter as soon as possible."
"Yes." The gray-bone wizard smiled and nodded, seeming to express his approval of Lucian's attitude. Then with a crash, his somewhat illusory body instantly collapsed and turned into wisps of shadow air that quickly dissipated.
"It's really..." Lucian silently stared at the position where the Gray Bones Wizard and the Snake Mother disappeared, then looked at the Gray Bones Scepter in his right hand, and shook his head helplessly.
Lucian felt that under the control of the third-level wizard De La Torre, the wizard situation on the entire continent was about to be turbulent again.
However, the encirclement and suppression of the Bone Alliance required some advance preparations, and during this period, the Winterhold exchange team promoted by Lucian had already received news of their departure.
"Teacher Lucian, after Winterhold received the gift from you, teacher, their exchange team has now set off. Well, I heard that the team is led by three official wizards. It is considered a relatively high-level exchange visit in Winterhold. Already..."
Carly, who was responsible for liaison with Winterfort, ran into Lucian's office happily with a letter with a mental power mark attached.
Lucian couldn't help but have a smile on his face. He had been waiting for this matter for almost a month and a half, and now he finally had a satisfactory result.
..."I really don't know what those guys from Ashbone Academy have in mind." A huge whale flapped its huge fins like a pair of flesh wings, floating above the clouds and mist with the help of magic power and air current fluctuations. .
Inside the whale's body, the original head position has been transformed into a room-sized cabin. Three wizards from Winterhold and a dozen wizard apprentices are currently living in this whale. In the body of the Liyun Whale, with the help of this extraordinary magical beast that had been transformed into a biological vehicle, it quickly moved towards the area where Ashbone Academy was located.
Just like most elemental wizards look down on body-refining wizards and despise the latter as "barbarians", in the eyes of these body-refining wizards, those elemental wizards who only know how to "play tricks" are not actually in line with their expectations. Likes it, and believes that that kind of "sizing up the situation" is actually the exclusive manifestation of a coward.
In particular, the elemental witchcraft that the Academy of Ashes is good at is biased towards life-saving, sneak attacks and indirect combat shadow and death-type witchcraft, which is even more inconsistent with the "good man" aesthetic of Winterhold. It is precisely because of this difference in the cultivation system that the official wizards on both sides are actually in a state of distaste for each other.
In this unprecedented "ice-breaking operation" of the Ashes and Bones Academy, the reason why Winterfort sent three official wizards was that, except Iceberg Woolf because he was curious about the Ashes and Bones Academy, the other two official wizards were I came with the attitude of criticizing and watching the fun.
In their view, the reason why Lucian invited them for so-called academic exchanges was to some extent a low profile, a reflection of their lack of confidence in the path of elemental wizards that the Ashbone Academy has always adhered to.
However, among the three official wizards, Woolf was not as prejudiced as his two companions. On the contrary, he had a kind of good-natured curiosity about this exchange visit to Ashbone Academy. At the same time, he also has a certain interest in the methods of elemental wizards.
"Actually, I feel that this exchange is actually a good thing. After all, some auxiliary elemental witchcraft is actually also useful to us..." Woolf wanted to say something, but was interrupted by the other two body refining wizards. Interrupt directly.
"Okay, Woolf, instead of believing in those flashy witchcraft, it's better to spend your time tempering your body." Saud patted his shoulder, and then handed him a bottle of the ones near the ice field. Wodeka, which is brewed only by the country, seemed to be a sign for him to drink some strong alcohol to sober up.
Woolf shook the bottle helplessly, then uncorked the bottle and took two sips.
"Isn't this Wodeka more effective than some kind of blessing witchcraft?" Saud took back the bottle and muttered as he started to drink for himself.
Woolf:…
…
"Sally, that's great! Our grade's basic runes class is suspended tomorrow!" Early in the morning, Sally heard the cheers of her friend Monica.
When she turned her head, she saw Monica sprinting towards her bed at a speed of 100 meters, and in the next second, a "big dumpling" appeared on her bed.
Sally's mouth twitched, but she still picked up a certain salted fish that she was about to salt and marinate. "No, please explain clearly first, why is the basic runes class canceled tomorrow?"
"Hey, the exchange team from Winterfort is coming tomorrow. Teacher Carly will be responsible for presiding over related matters, so she simply gave us a week's leave." Monica's face was full of smiles at this time, and she spread her arms lazily. On his bed, his whole body seemed to have been completely deboned.
"Oh, Teacher Carly is good at everything, but the classes are too strict and the homework assignments are too difficult. Did you know? There are already apprentices who care about Teacher Carly as the Silver Devil behind her back... Well, in short, the exchange student program Long live!"
“Long live the exchange student program!”
"Long live the Silver Demon!"
When Carly passed by the first-year dormitory area of Ashbone College, she could hear ghostly cries and howls coming from inside the dormitory from time to time. She looked down at the pile of homework she had prepared in her hand and fell into deep thought.
"Forget it, just think of it as a question to think about. If you are interested, take a look. If you are not interested, forget it." Carly muttered. She felt that these new batch of wizards seemed to be a little too loose. It seems to go from one extreme to another all at once.
"Perhaps, I need to mention this matter to Tutor Lucian." Carly silently wrote down the matter. She felt that if the current atmosphere continued, these new wizards might be happy within the academy, but they They also lost the consciousness and ability of the wizard apprentices from the Ashbones Academy to fight and fight.
"This won't work for a long time..." Carly thought as she found the dormitory where several "class representatives" lived, and then knocked on the door.
And the moment she opened the door, Monica's cheers in the room stopped abruptly.
