The Sun King's Evidence

Chapter 276, The limits of human mastery of magic

After seeing off Anton, Ryan also saw off Sulia. The female knight was going back to Helen Hilde for the Winter Curtain Festival. Sulia wanted to leave as soon as possible before the heavy snow closed the mountains.

Ryan knew that as long as he begged, Sulia would definitely be willing to stay in the earldom to spend the holidays with him, but this was not necessary. The days to come were still long, and it was not suitable for two people to stay together for too long before they were married. This is detrimental to Lidya Su’s reputation.

The female knight has paid a lot for Ryan, and Ryan naturally considers her.

After sending Surya away, Angron returned with his army.

The song of triumph was played, and the earl, with the remaining knights and sergeants, welcomed the return of the army. Everyone had a big smile on their face, and there were more than a dozen carts of loot loaded with large amounts of gold. Silver made the residents of the town widen their eyes with envy.

The seizures of this expedition were extremely rich. Even the serf soldiers, each of them seized at least dozens of silver coins worth of wealth. The Earl's expeditionary army wiped out eight beastman warbands and night goblin warbands in Chalon Forest. One regiment, one greenskin fortress was conquered, and the loot captured was estimated to be worth thousands of gold crowns. This was accumulated over hundreds of years by the beastman war gang and the greenskin fortress.

The expeditionary army also suffered losses. Only more than 1,300 people were left out of 1,500 when they returned.

"Tonight, the bars in the town will be overcrowded, and the soldiers will taste barley wine and tell their glorious past of making great achievements with Lord Angron and Lord Armand." Angron and Ryan walked along the high road of the town. Wall Walk, the current high wall of Jean Town has been built seven or eight meters high: "Oh, by the way, fighting side by side with dwarves and elves will also be one of the glorious deeds, from the last victory to the next victory , we need continued wins to strengthen residents’ confidence.”

"Did you get the vibranium? Brother?" Ryan was not interested in this aspect. With Angron leading the team, victory was almost certain.

"I got it, but it's a pity that it's not enough for me to make an axe." Angron shook his head with some regret: "Maybe another one as big as that will be enough."

"Don't be anxious, brother, take your time." Ryan let the cold wind blow on his face. He comforted Angron: "The dwarves will have it. If it doesn't work, let's attack the dwarf fortresses occupied by the greenskins. .”

"This war went very smoothly, but we will not always be so smooth." Angron nodded: "Your subjects cannot support a long-term war. We have opened up many settlements in the forest. What you need to do now What is needed is to arrange the remaining labor force into the newly opened areas of the forest for farming.”

"I understand that Katzenberg has already arranged this." Ryan said with a sigh: "The residents have become accustomed to living under various threats. The peaceful life now is hard-won. Everyone knows how to cherish, and in this case, I want to encourage my residents to actively join the army."

"Yes, I have something to discuss with my dwarf brother, so I won't accompany you." Angron patted Ryan's shoulder hard, then turned around: "Lucien?"

"Yes! Your Excellency Angron!" A young knight errant accompanying him immediately straightened his body.

"Don't you want to see the dwarf bar? Come with me." Angron laughed.

"Yeah!" The knight-errant named Lucien followed Angron. Ryan shrugged helplessly and walked towards the third floor of his castle.

"Count! Good morning!"

"My Earl!"

"Good morning!" Ryan was wearing an earl's costume. He politely greeted everyone who greeted him, including serfs, freedmen, and knights who had not yet received spurs (you can be officially promoted if you get spurs) (a knight errant with a false title), including his knightly subordinates.

"Master~" The dark elf appeared in front of Ryan. She was wearing a black and white maid's dress. Her long black hair was tied up with a white ribbon and a headscarf. Her cold face was a little happy to see Ryan's appearance. In the middle of winter, Of course, Orica's maid outfit is not the summer knee-length skirt, but a long black skirt that reaches her ankles. Her usual pumps are also replaced by long boots. If Ryan guessed correctly, Orica You should also replace your garters with pantyhose.

"Olica, where's Theresa?" Ryan took the dark elf's hand.

"Miss Teresa is learning Gothic and the mastery of the wind of magic, and Her Highness Morgiana is teaching her." Orica took the initiative to hold Ryan's arm: "Her Highness Morgiana asked me to see that you are back. No, she said that if you keep doing this and don’t come, she will never teach Miss Theresa again.”

"Okay, I'll be there right away." Ryan was a little embarrassed. He knew that Morgiana only agreed to teach the sorceress because of his own face. As a result, he was a little busy and spent time teaching Teresa for a few days at first. , just leave everything to Morgiana later.

This of course caused dissatisfaction with the Lake God Witch. Morgiana didn't care how much Theresa had learned. She didn't care at all about the sorceress's life or death. She just wanted Ryan to spend more time with her before she agreed. Regarding this, Ryan is very clear that there is no law in this country that can restrain the Witch of the Lake God.

"Olica, can you teach Theresa magic?" Ryan said suddenly.

He could now faintly feel the magic in Orika's body.

This shows that after more than two years of nourishment by him, the soul of the dark elf has been repaired to a certain extent.

The dark elf didn't understand what Ryan meant for a moment. Her amber eyes stared at Ryan for several seconds, which made Ryan want to laugh: "What's wrong, you keep looking at me, didn't you see enough last night?"

"Master~" Olica knew that Ryan was joking. Even so, the dark elf was still a little embarrassed. She walked towards the third floor with Ryan. The dark elf didn't quite understand why Ryan said that. She thought for a moment and said : "Master, human magic is too simple for me. Your Highness Morgiana, she masters both the sky and life spells, and is also proficient in the lake god spell. She is the chosen great wizard of the sacred domain. It’s enough to teach Miss Teresa the ability to sense magic.”

"It sounds like you don't care about Morgiana's magical knowledge?" Ryan heard something different from Orika's words.

"That's not the case. Your Highness Morgiana still has her own unique skills in life magic and the unique Lake God magic." Olica shook her head calmly: "But I want to say that Her Majesty Morgiana can Teaching Miss Teresa Gothic and the perception of magical winds cannot help her advance further in her magical attainments."

Ryan frowned at this.

Orica may be right. Teresa is a sorceress of the ice system, Veronica is a witch of the light and fire systems, and Morgiana is a sanctuary witch and lake goddess of the sky and life systems. The divinely chosen witches who specialize in divine magic. The magics mastered by these three witches are not related to each other.

Moreover, Teresa's ice spells are even more special. The ice spells are not among the eight magic winds, but they do exist, because magic cannot be summarized simply by the eight magic winds, just like Chaos is not the only thing in the subspace. Ice magic was established by Soika, the first ice-type holy witch. In the north of the empire, Nord and the Kingdom of Kislev, there are many witches of the ice type. .

"Humans are not a race suitable for using magic. This is why after the Great Holy War, the high spirit Teclis spent a lot of energy teaching magic to humans. In the end, he simply let these wizards bind one kind of magic wind and only practice one kind in their lives. The reason." Orica smiled meaningfully: "Because humans can only master two winds of magic at the same time. It is better to specialize in one kind. Anyway, humans can master one kind of magic in their short life. The wind is amazing."

The two people arrived in front of the prayer room on the third floor, but Ryan grabbed Olica and motioned for us not to go in. The Earl took his maid to his bedroom.

"Master?" Orica saw Ryan closing all the curtains, and her face with light wheat-colored skin immediately turned red: "Master, do you want to do it? Okay."

"...We have to wait until the matter is over." Ryan took Orica's hand and sat down, and said seriously: "Can you introduce to me in detail, what is the magic of elves?"

Olica looked at Ryan and then at the closed curtains. A bright light flashed in her eyes: "Master, what do you want to know?"

"In addition to the eight magic spells, how else do elves cast spells?" Ryan became interested.

"In addition to the Eight Winds of Magic, elves also have two ways of casting spells. The first is called Dahl." Orica whispered: "Dahl means black magic. As everyone knows, elves in order to prevent the chaos of chaos. The invasion created the Maelstrom, which drained the winds of Chaos needed for the coming of Chaos, and then filtered out the Eight Winds of Magic."

Ryan nodded. Everyone knew that after being filtered by the maelstrom, although the corruption of chaos in the Eight Winds of Magic is still there, it has been greatly weakened. This makes human wizards less likely to be corrupted by chaos.

"But among us dark elves, we have a unique technique of directly using the wind of chaos to cast spells. This spell-casting technique comes from Hecate, the goddess of black magic in the elven underground god system. Chaos wizards also cast spells in this way. Dark magic Because it directly guides the power of the winds of chaos, it is particularly powerful, but the user is extremely vulnerable to the corruption of chaos and violent magic. As the use of dark magic intensifies, the user's soul will gradually be cursed and devoured by Slaanesh." Lika's tender little hand held Ryan's rough big hand tightly, and the dark elf secretly leaned on Ryan's shoulder: "If the master hadn't saved me, it is estimated that my soul would have been devoured by Slaanesh in five years at most. Er Jing.”

"Is there no way to stop it?"

"Yes, killing and enjoyment, as well as an in-depth understanding of black magic." Orica nodded lightly: "Killing allows Slaanesh to swallow the enemy's soul, thereby slowing down and filling the loss of his own soul, extending life, enjoying and Indulgence allows Slaanesh to gain spiritual satisfaction, and it can also slow down the speed at which the soul is devoured... But since my master isolated me from the prying eyes of Slaanesh, I have been freed from the curse."

"Well...then what about another one?" Ryan then asked, he was indeed very interested in this aspect.

"There is another method of casting spells called Quish, also known as high magic." Orica continued: "High magic is different from black magic. High magic is to control multiple magic winds at the same time and reconcile different magic winds. , merged into more refined energy and spells, the most typical ones are the elven archmages in the White Tower of Hoth. They all started practicing one kind of magical wind and became completely proficient in it. After they skillfully controlled multiple magical winds, , and then practice advanced magic, the Supreme Mage Teclis of the Council of Magisters of Hoth is proficient in all the known spells of the eight winds of magic, and also possesses many unique advanced magics of his own, including many great spells."

"Big spell?" Ryan then asked, "What is that?"

"Magics of nine rings and above are called great spells. Normally, the magic net is under the control of the gods, and spells of nine rings and above are sealed. If you want to release a great spell, Or the caster has the strength of a demigod, or the caster has the recognition and help of the gods." Olica looked out the door: "For example, Her Highness Morgiana, her most powerful spell 'Pharmacion Holy Grail Comet' is the Fairy of the Lake The gift of.”

"I see, I understand." Ryan nodded repeatedly, indicating that he fully understood.

"In addition to high elves, Slann Demon Toads also have the magic network backdoor opened by the Ancient Sanctuary. They can also easily use big spells. For example, the famous Slann Demon Toad Lord Mazda-Moody can cast a spell from the plains with just one big spell. It pulled up mountains thousands of meters high and prevented the Druzi army from going south." Olika's face turned a little red: "Master... Actually, I can also cast the big spell. The one you carved on my lower abdomen The spirit pattern also has the authority to open the magic network. Master, are you the descendant of a supreme being? Or the reincarnation?"

"Have you fully recovered?" Ryan asked instead without directly answering the Dark Elf's question.

The chosen champion can vaguely feel that Orika's identity is by no means that simple. The elves may know more about many magic secrets, but she does not know it so clearly. More importantly, Orika is very young. This dark elf is less than three hundred years old.

"No, my soul has been seriously damaged. I can't condense my magic power now. My magic power depends entirely on the supply of my master." Olica shook her head: "If you, master, want me to teach Miss Theresa how to control the wind of magic, , then the master must always replenish me... magic power."

"Really?" Ryan said that I was very doubtful.

"Of course...it's true." The dark elf looked away unnaturally: "Without magic power, I wouldn't be able to teach Miss Theresa."

"...Forget it, let's go to the prayer room first." Ryan pulled Orika, and the Earl and his personal maid walked towards the prayer room.

"Henry~" opened the door to the prayer room. Morgiana was instructing Teresa in High Gothic. The sorceress held the teaching materials and was trying hard to speak according to the pronunciation of High Gothic.

"No, no, the h sound cannot be pronounced here. In High Gothic, the h in this word is silent. This word should be pronounced as Onli." Morgiana had a look of impatience on her face. The Witch of the Lake God Trying to be patient: "There are some letters in High Gothic that are silent. Miss Trovik, you have to change these habits, otherwise you will be laughed at at the palace banquet."

"Yes..." The sorceress was painfully learning High Gothic. She knew that this was a skill she must master. Even if she didn't consider staying with Ryan, the opportunity to learn High Gothic was still very precious.

"Lian, are you here?" When Morgiana saw Ryan appearing, a light flashed in her green eyes: "Miss Trovik, let's stop here for today's class. Go back and review it carefully. The day after tomorrow you will You must write a self-introduction of no less than fifty words and then read it to me.”

"Yes!" The sorceress nodded. She greeted Ryan and then exited the prayer room with the book in hand.

Morgiana raised her head and looked directly at Ryan: "You are finally here? Ryan, when will your promise to me be fulfilled?"

"Now."
