"Bishop Ansiuk, this is it! I just saw the wizard and the witch hunter coming out of the house from a distance and fighting all the way here..."
A quarter of an hour later, in the Lower City, a scavenger in tattered clothes and covered in dirt looked at the Vatican priests in front of him with a stooped figure, and carefully told everything he saw.
Ansik was speechless. He lowered his head and looked at the marks burned by the flames on the ground. The red blood had turned into dark red after being evaporated by the high temperature. The upturned ground surface and the fragmented flesh and blood residues all showed the brutality of the battle.
What caused such serious damage was most likely the second-ring magic [Pyroblast]!
"Where's the body?" Ansiuk suddenly asked. There were obvious signs of battle on the ground, but there was no body of Blainey.
The scavenger swallowed and spoke with difficulty. "After the death of the witch hunter, he was thrown into the Mian River by the wizard..."
"This is blasphemy!"
Before Ansiuk could speak, a middle-aged priest behind him shouted excitedly.
Over the years, thanks to the "wise" actions of the Duke of Nordland, the entire lower reaches of the Yao River have become a veritable filthy place.
You must know that Blainey's identity is not just as simple as a witch hunter, but also a member of the Holy See's Divine Punishment Army. He even drank the [Divine Grace Potion] in advance, and he seemed to have become a messenger of God in the mortal world.
The reason why he frequently participates in witch hunts is just to add to his resume.
But the wizard who was corrupted by the devil brutally killed the other party and threw the body into the filthy Yao River. This was undoubtedly a provocation to the majesty of the Holy See!
The scavenger's body couldn't help but tremble, and he lowered his head in fear.
Ansik's hand holding the scepter tightened a little, and his anger continued to rise. He turned to look at the slightly trembling scavenger and asked again.
"Did you see clearly what the wizard who killed Blainey looked like? Was there anyone else involved in the process?"
"I just took a few glances from a distance. Lord Bishop, there shouldn't be a second wizard there..." the scavenger replied with a slight trembling. "The man appears to be a young adult. He has brown hair and is probably as tall as you."
"Karl..." Ansiuk murmured to himself, thinking about the other party's information in his mind.
Before this, he had never paid attention to this unknown wizard apprentice. After all, judging from the information obtained, he had only been in the profession for about half a year, and he was not popular with the wizard Keru on weekdays. He was the least threatening among all targets. one of……
But now it seems that is not the case...
Release the second-level magic [Pyroblast] and kill two witch hunters one after another. This is definitely not something that an apprentice who is new to magic can do!
Unless the other party possesses a powerful alchemy item, or... is an official wizard like Kelu!
…
A few days later, at the Nordland border, in a hotel in the town of Ur.
Linn woke up from the nightmare and jumped up from the hard wooden bed, then walked to the window as fast as possible and observed the scene outside the window.
Seeing that everything was normal and no one came to surround him, Lin En was relieved.
Ever since he killed the two witch hunters in the slums five days ago, he had been worried about the subsequent pursuit by the Tribunal. He also deliberately took a long way to Ur Town and even faked some traces of his escape.
Perhaps his half-baked anti-reconnaissance skills really worked, or the Inquisition had no time to pay attention to his little wizard apprentice. So far, he has not encountered any pursuers.
But even so, the journey can only be described as difficult.
After being accustomed to the convenience of modern life, and now suddenly coming to a place similar to the European Middle Ages, this contrast almost made Linn collapse.
After all, there are no mobile phones, computers, familiar family or friends here. You can't have a hot breakfast when you wake up in the morning. You can only eat a bite of brown bread that is hard to swallow with water...
The only good thing is that he has a complete set of memories of the original Karl, understands the language and writing of this world, and is not weak in skills. He can intimidate some short-sighted thieves, so as not to die on the way.
After several days of torture, Linn reluctantly accepted the fact that he had traveled through time, and this was already the second day after he arrived in Ur Town!
Out of caution, Linn did not rush to find the whereabouts of the other wizard apprentices. After discovering the marks left by the other wizards, he returned secretly, spent a day getting familiar with the terrain, and purchased a dozen new flints and a bag. Black bread.
Lin En became a little nervous after a few days of running away, but after getting to know the town of Ur, she immediately understood why Jonny chose this gathering place.
As a trading town on the border of Nordland, the people coming and going here are mixed, and caravans often come and go. One or two unfamiliar faces will not attract too much attention.
While thinking about it, Linn reached for the stone mortar on the side, placed the broken flint into pieces, and then ground it into fine powder with a small wooden stick.
During the time when he entered Ur Town, apart from looking for markers and familiarizing himself with the terrain, Linn spent the rest of his time making white phosphorus!
White phosphorus is a simple substance of phosphorus with the chemical formula P4 and its appearance is a white or light yellow translucent solid.
There are two commonly used production methods.
One is to mix calcium phosphate, quartz sand and carbon powder into a mixture, heat it to 1400 to 1600 degrees Celsius, and then pass the generated phosphorus vapor into cold water to solidify and form white phosphorus.
The second is to isolate the air, heat the red phosphorus to 416 degrees Celsius, then sublime and cool it.
It's just that in this world without an industrial system, similar to ancient Europe, it is not easy to find these raw materials in a short time.
Although 071 had shown him some ancient and "convenient" raw material extraction methods, Linn did not intend to use them unless absolutely necessary.
Fortunately, Linn soon discovered a surprise. The surface of the flint he had used was partially doped with red phosphorus!
This is not surprising considering that red phosphorus is an efficient flame retardant and was used in the manufacture of matches to improve their safety in the last century.
It seems that the indigenous people of this world have discovered the element phosphorus, but their use is still very crude.
Under the continuous grinding of wooden sticks, the flint fragments were gradually decomposed, and after removing some impurities, only clusters of red powder were left...
He didn't have any professional instruments in his hands, but the magical power was much easier to use than those scientific instruments!
[Hand of the Mage]!
As soon as Lin En thought, the fine red phosphorus automatically suspended as if it had been inspired by something, and then, under the action of [Primary Material Deconstruction Technique], it was deconstructed into a basic molecular state...
(PS: I want anything from new books!)
