Not a Witch

"If there is a branch of Carites here, we just take a break here." Ling Xin walked in front of Vimiya and introduced this place to her.

"Yefeng Island, I seem to have heard of it before." Vimiya gathered the messy hair beside her ear, and then looked at the island again.

"Where did Vimiya grow up?" Ling Xin occasionally asked curiously.

"On the sea, that is, in the middle of the endless sea."

"I heard it's very dangerous there. Not only are there usually huge tides and waves, but there are also huge eddies underwater. Once the ship sinks to a certain bottom, it will gradually fill with water, and then it will be completely silent." Ling Xin said what she heard to some things.

"Well, in fact, there are indeed few people living there, and I also depend on my predecessors." Vimiya recalled the past.

"But I gradually got used to it later. In fact, I'm not afraid of loneliness." The mermaid lady explained seriously.

Then the two talked about their respective hometowns and the old things among the classmates.

……

"Actually, we were also entrusted by our friends to come back to you. I don't know if we really want to." Thinking of not having a good communication with this blue-haired girl along the way, Ling Xin felt a little regretful.

At that time, she was immersed in the study of the Pearl Witch's blessing, trying to understand the reason why she would not age for the time being.

"I know, it's Lorraine." Vimiya smiled.

"I believe Lorraine, if she personally asked you to come to me, then there must be something very important."

"Even she can't handle it. I need to find help. It seems that this time the situation is very unusual."

Even before returning to the mainland, Vimiya roughly guessed the problem Lorraine Hill was facing. If it was just an ordinary matter, the Star Witch would naturally not bother her. Since she took the initiative to find her this time, the opponent It was almost certainly not the witch, or the sages.

But now that the strength of the Sage Society has not fully recovered, there is no need to offend a witch, so after a little thought, it can be guessed that the opponent is also a witch, and there are more than one.

If Kitty was still there, Lorraine shouldn't be so troublesome to come to him

Where did the red-haired flame witch go now? Although I felt a tingling sensation when I came into contact with her, I have to say that in Vimiya's eyes, Keti is still a very cute companion.

The two hundred and eighth chapter reunited two original

At the end of May, the army led by the famous general 'Bazel' arrived in Yinding Province. Its continuous flags and camps spread all over the river bank, facing the fortress built on the mountain in the south.

Because of the previous victories, the 'Dryswood' organization has occupied the favorable terrain here, and can rely on terrain and fortresses to resist the enemy.

"It's very strong, and it's a bit tricky."

Bazel used the binoculars to observe the tall towers among the peaks on the opposite side, and it took him a long time to put his hands down.

He turned around and returned to the huge tent. At this time, there were already many high-ranking officers waiting here.

There is a detailed and huge map in the middle of the tent, and there are many newly written signs and notes on it. It seems that the layout of the 'Dryerwood' organization has long been mastered by them, and this is naturally attributed to those who are in the army. The witch who served her life.

"The attack will be launched during the daytime tomorrow. There is no need to worry about the enemy attacking tonight, so we try to arrange for the soldiers to have adequate rest."

"Yes, my lord." All the officers nodded.

Afterwards, Bazel assigned the tasks and plans of each unit, and the combat meeting ended in an orderly manner.

There were no particular speeches or worries, war was as normal to the general as drinking water, and his men were used to it.

After all the officers left, Bazel sat on the large throne, closed his eyes and meditated. At dusk, a witch asked to see him outside, so he slowly opened his eyes.

"Master Bazel." The witch first saluted respectfully, and then raised her head.

"What's the matter?"

"At present, the investigation of the enemy's defense has been completed, and a small part that was missing before has been completed."

After reporting on the task that the general gave before, the witch paused for a while, and then she watched Bazel and said some rather obscure words.

"The stars began to rotate, and the trajectory of everything I saw was unpredictable."

"Before I told you that you have a key destiny, but the ridiculous thing is that we can no longer see the trajectory ahead, as if we are in a fog."

"Oh, is that so?" Bazel opened his thick eyelids and looked at the witch below.

"I have never cared about fate. It is just an excuse and reason for the timid to find for themselves."

"If a person is really willing to move forward, even without the blessing of destiny, he will go forward until he succeeds, or dies on the way."

"Thinking and forecasting too carefully will only waste lives in vain."

Compared with his usual reticence, it is rare for this general to say a few words. This may also be his childhood experience, and it must have made him think about this issue many times.

"I've seen too many people, always regretting the past, always worrying about the future, like worms, spinning around in place, and claiming to be smart, but in fact this is just another kind of stupidity."

"Since you say you can't see the trajectory of fate, then serve the army well. Maybe after victory, I can give you some rewards, so that your trip is worthwhile."

"With wealth, you can do many things, feed your family, indulge in pleasure, fulfill your wishes, and gain a good name. So, why should you go far and wide to pursue such a ridiculous fate? The key to change everything is so simple and direct."

"Power, wealth, status, etc., you witches are so intelligent and extraordinary, don't you also serve those big people?"

"Go back."

"Yes." Bowing her head and retreating, the witch slowly walked out of the tent.

She took a deep breath, looking at the mountains and fortresses surrounded by clouds and mist in the distance, she felt something in her heart.

She doesn't care about the general's words, because they are people from two worlds. As witches, they pursue fate, knowledge, mystery, and the unknown. Such wishes and goals are rarely understood by people, and she has long been used to them. Such a misunderstanding.

It's just that the current changes really made her feel a kind of panic. It was not just about the anxiety about this war, but about the entire empire and the world.

From an extremely ancient era, these witches, as followers of the Witch, began to observe astrology, record time, pass on secret knowledge, and secretly assist and guide those strong men.

For the changes of fate, they can't understand it very well. Many heroic epics have a lot of revelations before they begin.

Although we can't exhaust the whole picture, we can always detect some clues.

For example, the red and white twin princes back then, the battle between Cangcui and the country of Oz, and the joint confrontation between the seven countries of Xuehua and so on.

But now, they can no longer observe the direction of the future. This is not only their branch, but also those sisters in their hometown in the north.

Everything is in a fog, and the future path cannot be seen clearly.

This is a rare era of turmoil, or it may be that many disturbing factors have arisen one after another, making the future confusing.

In the past, it was still possible to know who is the key person who affects the fate, who may bring about huge changes, and which time point will usher in a change, but now, it doesn't work anymore.

If this situation continues, I am afraid that the profession of witches will gradually disappear. In the end, they will not become like those ordinary mages, but only have a little bit of extraordinary skills.

----

The third era, 1706, the Canghong Empire, Yinding Province in the south, Wuyuling.

The fierce battle broke out in the early summer, and the general 'Bazel' who led the 'Golden Mane Bear' legion used sufficient and fierce artillery fire to break through the defense line at the very beginning, and directly blasted through the canyon passage, allowing the former army to Penetrate the line of defense and camp behind the enemy.

In this way, the fortress on the Longji mountain range was encircled front and back, and artillery, explosives, and other spells were used to bombard it, cutting off the transportation line supported by the "Dryer Wood" organization to supply the fortress on the mountain top.

Faced with such an attack, 'Dryas Wood' organized several charges, preparing to cut off the enemy's alliance at the foot of the mountain, but the effect was not good and it was never successful.

The steep slope does hinder the enemy, but it also makes it impossible for one's own side to attack down the mountain, which is extremely dangerous.

After several days of stalemate like this, one night, fire fell from the sky and smashed into the imperial camp at the foot of the mountain. Afterwards, the soldiers from the fortress on the mountain charged down the mountain again and organized a joint attack with the southern reinforcements from the Dryas.

While the night fire was burning, gunfire and explosions continued, and the two sides fought in the dark night, which was extremely chaotic for a while.

At dawn, the battle finally ended. The Imperial Legion's camp behind the mountain was destroyed, and a small number of people retreated to the northern line of the mountain. After many sacrifices, the two sides returned to the stage of confrontation.

In mid-June, the imperial garrisons from the provinces in the south also started to move, dividing into three groups to attack behind the 'Fairywood' organization. For this reason, the daughter of the red dragon, Xia Lanluote, led the remaining knights to block and resist with difficulty.

At the beginning of July, the original underground organization "Transparent Stone" in the southern region finally announced to join it after negotiating with "Fairywood" for many days.

These hidden mages will help organize and repel the imperial army, but as a requirement, they hope to rebuild the astrological capital, Odyssey, which is the former Oz Academy of Odds.

In late July, an airship sailed slowly through the war-torn provinces to the front line of the battle.

The cabin door opened, and a group of special passengers walked down the steps.

"Wow, it's finally here. I didn't expect to go for so long this time, and I was delayed at the border for a while." Lan Lier stretched her waist, and then jumped off the airship, followed by Ling Xin who was still calm.

Is this the front line?

Vimiya also stepped off the airship, slightly shielding the too bright sunlight with her hand, looking at the beacon towers and fortresses on the distant mountain tops, the air was full of dry dusty smell, mixed with a little lingering fragrance of gunpowder smoke.

After the report, a group of warriors in Jade Lin armor led the way for the three of them, heading towards the distant mountains.

At the foot of the south side of the mountain, the camps are connected together. They are like huge circles covering the open field. There are many fences and horses. They look like hedgehogs. Walking among them, you can see the crowds of people. The sound, and the soldiers in full suit.

Faced with the continuous increase of the imperial army, the 'Dryasma' organization is also stepping up support. Now there are nearly 20 troops gathered here. They attack in turn and replace the wounded soldiers on the mountain from time to time.

Many new recruits also adapted to the brutal battle as soon as possible in a short period of time.

After the three of them curiously walked through the long camp, they finally came to a temporary cave at the foot of the mountain.

It is said to be a cave, but the entrance of the cave is extremely tall, like a palace leading to the mountain.

This is a newly built place to protect important people and objects from possible enemy bombing.

After entering here, Lan Lier and Vimiya could see the strict defense layer by layer. They went through complicated procedures before passing through the checkpoint step by step.

Finally, when they reached the depths of this underground facility, the surroundings became a little quieter. Doors were distributed on both sides of the giant tunnel, and there were sounds from time to time, and occasionally explosions could be heard.

"After 14 trials and tests, this type of repeating rifle has barely reached the stage of production and assembly. We need to prepare the design and manufacturing flow chart within three days, and then send it to the rear workshop for rapid production."

A door opened suddenly, and several mages in dark green robes came out one after another. The leader among them was still talking about various matters, while someone behind him kept recording.

"Okay, let's end this project for the time being. Fianu, you will be responsible for the follow-up of follow-up questions. If there are any problems that cannot be solved, please ask me again."

"Yes, mentor." One of the younger mages pushed down his glasses and nodded.

"Well, let's go and see how the construction of the 'Erlong' is going. Although there is strong support from the organization this time, the materials are still very scarce. Don't make any mistakes and waste the hard-earned opportunity."

As he said that, the master of the magic sequence led a group of people past the three of them, and then entered another door.

From the small meeting time when the door was opened, several people also vaguely saw the huge structure being built in it. Its shape was like a giant, but the details were like a dragon, giving people a cold and powerful visual impact.

Is that some kind of magical colossus, or something.

Just when Lan Lier was itchy and curious, the three of them finally arrived at a quiet door.

dong dong——

After a simple knock on the door, a petite maid opened the door and looked at a few people, then checked the documents below, then nodded and let the three of them in.
