"This magic barrier is indeed a very ancient magic circle technology. Judging from the time point, it should be the technology mastered by the intelligent races before the Battle of the Bottom of the Abyss. It's not that these technologies are bad, it's just that , it is indeed quite backward.”
After the mage who accompanied the army at the scene informed Edward of the details of the magic barrier surrounding the entire Santa Ana Snow Peak, he began to use the prayer communication network to contact the scholars in the Night Church.
The Midnight Library has been upgraded many times, and the environment inside is extremely good. Not only does it have a seminar room for scholars to communicate with each other, it can even use the plasticity of void energy to let the beings who enter it taste the delicacies that are actually illusory but very real. .
As for the basic functions of retrieving books, there is no need to mention them. It is much more convenient than those libraries in Sky Machinery City.
Therefore, in addition to practicing in the outside world, many scholars choose to spend most of their time in the Midnight Library. With the permission given by the Lady of the Night, it is not easy for Edward to contact these scholars. He will show them the maps uploaded by the mage. Scholars, seek their opinions.
These scholars were also amazed after seeing the magic barrier array structure that appeared around the Santa Ana Snow Peak. They analyzed it with great interest, and then came to the previous conclusion.
"You also know that the Battle of the Bottom of the Abyss did result in the loss of many skills, but those things, although it is a pity, are not indispensable."
"On the contrary, after the formal alliance of the five major intelligent races, knowledge integrated and collided with each other, ushering in a major technological advancement in magic and other fields. So it seems that these old magic circle technologies are very backward."
The scholars of the Night Church explained the situation of this magic circle to Edward. In summary, the technical level was indeed not low at that time, but looking at it now, it is just a thing full of loopholes. Read the book
"I understand, thank you for your help."
Edward was thoughtful, thanked the Night Church scholars who took the time to help him see the magic circle, and then left the Midnight Library and returned to reality.
"Your judgment is correct. This protective circle is indeed quite backward."
Nodding, Edward informed the mages who were waiting for him to confirm the results of the news he learned through the prayer communication network.
"As expected, I still find it a bit strange. These ancient ruins that suddenly appeared from all over the world look like a big conspiracy. How come the means of self-protection are so weak, and the result is really like this? .”
"Indeed, now that Mr. Edward has confirmed that our judgment is correct, it means that the strength of this magic circle comes entirely from a large amount of magic power, and it will be quite simple to crack it through clever tricks."
The military mages were chatting and discussing how to attack this very strong but not difficult magic barrier to break. They were eager to try and were ready to take action.
"Don't worry, the situation here doesn't seem to be normal. Since the other party has been forced into it by us, there is no need to act rashly."
Edward interrupted the military mages who were preparing to take action. He informed his familiar friends of the information analyzed here, and soon learned additional information, which also made him realize that Alai Things are far from normal here at Steller.
Looking at the news from Edward, Wang Yu felt a little baffled. He also knew about the old ruins that appeared across the continent, but Alestle's situation was very strange.
These old things that were buried deep in the old era must have reappeared for some purpose. However, the existence that was supposed to cause trouble in the new era has become unable to keep up with the times and the technology was crushed. Old antiques, this is quite wrong from any angle. If this is the case, the existence of these old times is a bit ridiculous.
"No, I don't believe that these gadgets pop up just to be suppressed by technology. Although I don't pay too much attention to it, the orcs, elves, and dwarves still know that they are troubled by these gadgets. If it is true, How can a guy who is hundreds of years behind in technology be able to do this?"
Wang Yu asked
According to Aviya, the other party had been in contact with members of the Night Church on the elves and dwarves side during the period when he was focusing on preparations, and he knew the situation much more clearly than Wang Yu.
"No, the situation here in Arestle is completely an exception. I asked Teacher Moira and Mr. Gwen. The elf capital of Liaheim and other elf capitals were suddenly affected by these incidents. The ruins of the past have been disturbed.”
The girl denied Wang Yu's funny guesses. Those ancient ruins that were disrupting the order of the mainland were not just for fun. If they could bring such a degree of chaos, they would definitely not be weak. As she said that, she showed a few pictures. On top of the perfect fractal lens in front of Wang Yu's eyes.
Several pictures show the current battle situation between the elves and dwarves. It can be seen that on the outskirts of the Forest of Origin, there are many dark elves and a team of ordinary elves launching an attack inside the Forest of Origin. Many dryads with very special shapes were mixed among the rebel elves. Those were the old beings who ran away from the ruins inside the elven kingdom.
The painting style on the dwarf side is a bit strange. The city is guarded by a large number of miniaturized "Iron Kings". The rune-magic cannons on the city walls are spitting out scorching fire and are launched against invading enemies from outside. Bombardment prevented them from rushing towards the dwarf city located in the middle of the mountains.
Among the hindered rebel teams, goblins, gray dwarves, and ordinary dwarves were mixed together. A large number of huge engineering machines were driven by them on the hillside. The golden iron armguards raised by the machines helped them resist the attacks from the dwarf city. Shelling, advancing steadily.
Among the teams of dwarves, there are some structures conspicuously distributed. The overall structure is not as sophisticated as the "Machine God" on the Sky Mechanical City, but it can also be seen that it is a body made with alchemy technology to be driven by intelligent races. .
Most of the large machines are controlled by these alchemy robots. The things that look like tanks are constantly firing alchemy bombs in the direction of the dwarf city. Where the battle is, artillery fire is everywhere, and explosions are everywhere. It's like a trance. Wang Yu thought he was looking at the battlefields on earth.
No matter what, whether it's the elves, the dwarves, or the orcs who don't have much news yet, these old existences that suddenly appeared have not shown that the technology here in Arestle is several generations behind. .
"In this area where the human kingdom is located, there are very few ancient ruins in comparison. The only ones that have been confirmed so far are the Snowy Peak of Saint Anna in Aleister, and the Pope of the Illuminati Cult. There is no news at all from the Theocracy where he is located, and it is very likely that he was directly solved by the God of Light."
The girl then talked about the situation in the human kingdom. At present, it seems that compared to the chaos in the kingdoms of other intelligent races, their side is really better.
"... Anyway, we should continue to make preparations. For the rest, let's wait and see what happens."
Shaking his head, Wang Yu compiled the information and sent it to Edward so that the other party could make a reference and make a judgment. If he needed help, just ask him for help.
"Uh-huh, the solution went pretty smoothly. Well...the national servers of other intelligent races are quite unstable. Anyway, you should give me less to do. Damn it, why do you still want me to handle it when the parliament has already been established? There are so many things, what do those guys who want to climb up think, I am almost exhausted from these documents!"
Charles scratched his scalp, concentrating on reading the message from Edward and dealing with the mountains of documents on the table. He complained loudly that his current position had increased with the decline of the royal family. At the same time, What fell on his head was more official documents that needed to be processed.
In addition to the four Grand Dukes in the Council, the candidates are still being slowly determined. However, the four Grand Dukes have neither the time nor the ability to help Charles share the work. They have specializations in the arts, and the four Grand Dukes have the ability to lead troops and individual combat capabilities. They are all top-notch, but writing reports and the like are really not what they are capable of.
All in all, Ciel's current workload, which will be bald sooner or later, will continue for a long time. He will not be able to relax until there are trustworthy people in the parliament.
"That's right. Those guys just stay in their positions and don't work. They're nothing like me. The higher the status, the more work they have to do. Why don't we just bring my father and those few brothers and sisters who are too idle? Work
, now no one in the kingdom should dare to criticize us for using our own people. "
Talking to himself in the office where he is alone is actually a conversation between Ciel and the devil "One" in his body, talking about his work. Ciel has indeed felt a little out of his depth recently. If it weren't for Wang Yu gave him a specially made energy potion that was strong enough, and Xiao Yi helped, but he was afraid that he might not be able to do it anymore.
"Stop for a moment, you bastard. Someone is about to sneak into the royal city. They are expected to follow the caravan into the west city in thirteen minutes. Their identities are, well, they are from the Sariben Empire. These are the only things I have seen so far. They are here. I can’t sense the purpose yet.”
The devil's voice "one" sounded in his mind, which caused Charles to stop the sliding pen in his hand, his face quickly darkened, and the veins in the hand holding the pen jumped. It was obvious that he was faced with a lot of documents to process but was overwhelmed. Ciel's blood pressure suddenly went up due to disturbing this matter.
"I really don't want to waste my time on these bitches. Damn bastards. If you're looking for trouble, don't worry about me being rude to you..."
Reciting the curse words he learned from Wang Yu, Charles closed his eyes, extended his mental power, touched something in the palace, and was connected to the network covering the entire royal city.
The power controlled by the royal family was gradually discovered during subsequent searches, and it was much more than previously expected. However, the archangel's super-speed shot from the sky gave the royal family no chance to throw out these trump cards. At this moment, it became Ciel A means to deal with those intruders.
In the city's area, those beings from Sariben were sitting in a caravan carriage in a certain Aleister country, following the caravan into the royal city.
Facing the identity check by the guards, all the prepared forged documents and procedures were complete, and the exquisite craftsmanship showed no problem at all, and he entered the royal city smoothly.
Their eyes naturally scanned the surrounding scene. These Sariben beings were somewhat surprised to find that the previous walled area in King Arestle City had been demolished, and the messy shabby houses had been simply renovated. The residents' faces no longer looked as miserable and gloomy as before.
Waiting for the caravan to arrive at its destination, they walked through the streets of the royal city. Before they were halfway there, a wizard in the team sensed something. He stood up suddenly and communicated with the void to perform witchcraft. However, Ciel, who already knew the trajectory of their actions, would not give them this opportunity.
The large network covering the entire royal city trembled for a moment, and a certain node suddenly collapsed. The carriage carrying the people of Sariben fell irresistibly into the gap between void and reality.
