"Attacking the geniuses of the various academies, and all of them are geniuses in magic tools and runes?"
Hearing the Sorcerer's description, Ariel could not help but frown, "Has anyone seen that Sorcerer's true appearance?"
She looked at the Sorcerer in front of her and asked.
"It's said that it's a Half-Elf Sorcerer."
The Sorcerer in front of Ariel said before waving his hand.
An image instantly appeared in front of them.
Within the image, a Half-Elf young woman appeared.
The Half-Elf young woman's appearance was quite exquisite and beautiful, but her expression was quite cold, as if she did not care about anything.
"Half-Elf …"
Looking at the young lady's appearance, the people present quickly recognized some of her subtle characteristics and could not help but frown.
"Very good."
Charlie frowned as the anger in his heart became even stronger, "Now even a bastard like the gnomes dares to bully my students."
"I'm going to capture her and put her in my laboratory, use her flesh and blood to feed my magic tool to vent my anger!"
He was infuriated and said coldly.
"Calm down, Charlie."
Compared to Charlie, Ariel was much calmer.
She looked at Charlie and said softly, "Don't you feel that this Half-Elf's background is quite strange?
Since when did our Hemu have a Half-Elf Sorcerer? "
She frowned as she spoke.
The Sorcerer circle was quite small and was very tightly connected.
No matter what kind of Sorcerer it was, they would need large amounts of resources and knowledge during their growth.
In order to obtain these things, a Sorcerer would have to interact with other Sorcerers as they grew.
Under normal circumstances, it was almost impossible for a Third Rank Apprentice to grow without the outside world knowing.
After all, even if a Sorcerer could live in seclusion, they would need large amounts of magic spell templates and materials, and they could not just appear out of thin air.
For a Third Rank Apprentice who had almost reached the standard to become a true Sorcerer to appear out of thin air was simply inconceivable.
Moreover?
She was a Half-Elf.
From what Ariel could remember, there were not many Elf Sorcerers in the entire Hemu region.
There were not many Elf Sorcerers in the entire Hemu region.
The entire Hemu region?
Only a small number of elves?
There were probably less than a few hundred of them, and they had been hiding in some secret place?
Living a secluded life.
As for the half-elves, these unique existences?
The possibility of its birth is very small?
After all, although elves and humans could reproduce, it was very difficult for them to produce offspring.
This also caused the existence of half-elves to be extremely rare.
Probably less than the number of elves.
And under such circumstances?
However, such a powerful Half-Elf Wizard had appeared.
From Ariel's point of view, this was something that did not make sense at all.
Where did they come from? What was their objective?
All kinds of questions appeared in Ariel's mind, but she ignored them one by one.
Recalling these questions, she could not help but frown.
But looking to the side, he seemed a little irritable?
Charlie, who couldn't control her emotions at all, still continued to speak.
"Don't worry, Charlie," he said.
"Based on what we know so far?
Even though they're attacking those genius apprentices, they don't seem to be taking the initiative to kill them. "
"The acolytes who were kidnapped?
In the end, they were all released safely. "
"From this situation?
Ed might not be in danger. "
"News is just news."
Listen to Ariel's words?
Charlie seemed to have calmed down a little, but after thinking for a while, he still shook his head. "Moreover, even if that's the case, are we going to place all our hopes on the mercy of this shameful kidnapper? Are we going to have pointless expectations for him?"
"If the other party wants to kill Ed, then our hesitation will cause Ed to lose his last hope."
"Of course I didn't mean that."
Ariel shook her head and said, "It doesn't matter if they release Ed or not. Since they dared to kidnap one of our students, this is a provocation to the Hunter's House, and it is unforgivable."
"However, in order to avoid provoking the other party and putting Ed in danger, I think we should be careful when we make our move. Try not to be noticed by the other party."
She looked at Charlie and said.
Hearing her words, Charlie hesitated for a moment before nodding. "I admit that what you said makes sense."
"So now, what should we do?"
Charlie asked as he looked at Ariel.
"First, put up a bounty and send people to capture him. Do the same thing as the other academies in case the other party feels that something is off."
Ariel nodded and thought for a moment before saying, "Afterwards, don't send out too many acolytes to chase after him in case they are angered.
"The real pursuit will be done by us two true Sorcerers."
At this point, a cold expression appeared on her face, "I'll ask the other Wizards to cast their spells and do their best to catch that half-elf acolyte."
"Once we find his location, we will immediately act and capture him.
We can also try to negotiate with the other academies. "
Charlie thought for a moment before saying, "Those academies' Apprentices were attacked by him before, so perhaps they know something and can give us some clues."
"Very well."
Ariel nodded, agreeing with Charlie's words.
Following this, the two of them quickly got up and started to move.
.....
"Is it here?"
Chen Heng asked as he looked ahead of him in a calm canyon.
In front of him was a mountain face.
The mountain wall looked very normal, just like an ordinary mountain. There was nothing unusual about it.
In front of Chen Heng, Yana stood there by herself, looking at the mountain face with a serious expression.
"It's here."
She turned and looked at Chen Heng as she said calmly, "There is an entrance to a place hidden on this mountain face.
It's just that I don't know exactly where it is or where the entrance is.
"This is also the reason why I brought you here."
Hearing there, Chen Heng did not say anything and only looked at Yana before getting up and slowly walking forwards.
He walked to the front and slowly touched the front of the mountain wall.
Standing there, he casually moved about.
An extremely rough feeling emerged from the palm of his hand. It felt different from ordinary stone. It didn't feel like he was touching a stone, but more like he was touching a piece of tree bark.
Chen Heng felt quite surprised and looked at it seriously.
From his perspective, he could find that this place was quite special.
There were many marks left behind by runes in many places.
These marks were quite perfect and would not have been revealed before. It was just that after so many years, they had started to reveal flaws, which Chen Heng had discovered.
Now, these flaws were the key to finding the problem.
As such, he thought for a moment before starting to act.
He did not lack any tools.
For some reason, even though this Half-Elf young woman was not proficient in runes, she had prepared everything in great detail.
It was clear that she was very experienced and had made preparations.
Looking at the things she had taken out, Chen Heng looked quite surprised.
"These were the requests from those fellows from before."
Looking at Chen Heng's confused gaze, Yana said softly.
"So it's like that."
Chen Heng nodded, understanding what was going on.
It seemed that there had been a few unlucky fellows who had been captured by Yana before him.
He wondered what happened to those fellows.
However, it was most likely that they had not found the entrance to this place.
Otherwise, this half-elf young lady wouldn't have had to capture him.
"Remember your promise."
Looking at the young woman behind him, Chen Heng said before starting to act.
His movements were very fast, and from time to time, he would be busy moving around.
During this process, Yana sat by the side and observed.
"Looks like he's not bad."
Looking at Chen Heng's actions, that voice once again sounded out in Yana's mind, "This child's skills are much better than those Apprentices from before.
Even within the Elf race, his skills are top-notch, and he is definitely a true genius. "
When she spoke, there was an obvious appreciation in her voice.
"It's not just runes and Sorcerer Formations," Yana said.
Yana also spoke up, "In terms of magic, he also learns very quickly."
"He has completely mastered the spell that I taught him before," the old man said with a smile.
"The only thing that can restrict him is his magic power.
"As long as he has enough magic power, he will be able to slowly construct the corresponding magic skill template and cast the magic skill.
"With this kind of talent, he should be a true genius among humans, right?"
She asked softly.
"I remember that it took me three years to learn this magic skill template.
"It's not just humans."
That voice once again sounded out in Yana's mind, this time with a sigh, "Even amongst all the Apprentices, this child is an absolute genius.
"Out of all the Apprentices I've seen in my life, he ranks at the top, and he is one of the most talented and promising Apprentices."
The voice in his mind sighed, and it could not help but feel some pity, "It's a pity …"
"The passage to the outside world from this region has been blocked.
"No matter how good his talent is, he will be trapped in this region and will not be able to leave.
"If he stays in this region, no matter how talented he is, he will be limited by his vision and resources. At most, he will become an official Magus."
"It will be very difficult for him to go any higher."
Yana said softly.
The Half-Elf young woman nodded.
She agreed with this as well.
The Half-Elf young woman was not a native of this region and was from another Sorcerer gathering place.
Compared to this region, the region that the Half-Elf young woman came from was more prosperous, and the Sorcerers there were more powerful.
After coming to this region, the Half-Elf young woman quickly felt the difference.
Some magic skills and techniques that were widely spread in other regions had not been spread in this region, or perhaps they had not been invented yet.
Even though there were Sorcerer legacies in this region, to the Half-Elf young woman, they were quite backward and crude.
At the same level, whether it was Third Rank Apprentices or true Sorcerers, they were all weaker.
This was why even though they were all Third Rank Apprentices, she was able to easily suppress other Third Rank Apprentices and kidnap Chen Heng from the hands of two Third Rank Apprentices.
The difference between civilization and technology was evident in all aspects, resulting in this result.
As such, looking at Chen Heng, who was busy in the distance, she could not help but feel that it was a pity.
From how she saw, if a genius like Chen Heng was born in her region, he would definitely have a glorious future and become an even greater Sorcerer.
However, in this region, he could only be trapped here. At most, he would be an official Magus.
Thinking to there, she inwardly shook her head as many thoughts flashed through her mind.
Time gradually passed.
Soon, the sky gradually darkened and became dusky.
Only then did Chen Heng stop.
"I've made some progress."
Looking at the Half-Elf young woman, Chen Heng nodded and said, "I'll be able to complete it in at most five days."
"It really is possible."
Sensing the confidence in Chen Heng's words, the Half-Elf young woman felt quite surprised.
Even though she had great confidence in Chen Heng's talent, she had never thought that Chen Heng would be able to produce results so quickly.
"Five days?"
The Half-Elf young woman inwardly nodded.
Following this, she brought Chen Heng to sit in front of a bonfire.
In front of the bonfire, she started to tell Chen Heng some basic magic skills and knowledge.
This was what they had agreed on.
Chen Heng would help her unravel the runes and Sorcerer Formations, while the Half-Elf young woman would teach Chen Heng some of the knowledge she had.
The Half-Elf young woman did not go back on her word. She would earnestly teach him every night, appearing very meticulous and serious.
"Such a complete structure of knowledge, and such a system …"
After teaching for the day, Chen Heng walked to the side and thought back to what the Half-Elf young woman had told him.
From how he saw it, the knowledge that the Half-Elf young woman had given him was incredibly profound, and in many areas, it was much more complete than what Chen Heng had learned.
There was a clear difference.
Evidently, this was not something that the Half-Elf young woman had come up with; it could only have come from where she had come from.
However, this was what Chen Heng felt quite confused about.
The Hemu region's Sorcerer circle was quite small, and there were not many Sorcerer academies.
If there really was an academy or school that had created such a complete structure of knowledge, there was no way that the Hunter's Belongings Academy did not know about it.
It was impossible for any advancement in knowledge or technology to happen overnight. Instead, it had to go through a long process of evolution.
As such, Chen Heng felt that it was quite strange for this Half-Elf young woman to have such complete knowledge and magic skills.
Her background also seemed quite strange to Chen Heng and was not simple at all.
Chen Heng had many guesses, but he could not confirm any of them.
Under such circumstances, the only thing he could do was to seize the time to digest what he had learned from the other party and try his best to memorize what he had learned from the other party and make it his own.
Time gradually passed.
In the blink of an eye, five days had passed.
After five days, through Chen Heng's hard work, the smooth mountain wall began to show signs of change.
When the final rune was activated, a formless door appeared in front of him.
"It's done."
Standing in front of the mountain wall and looking at the open door, Chen Heng wiped away the sweat on his forehead as he spoke softly.
Hearing Chen Heng's words, the Half-Elf young woman raised her head and looked in front of her.
"He really did it."
An emotional voice sounded out in Chen Heng's mind.
"From the looks of it, our journey this time was rather smooth. There weren't many twists and turns."
Yana nodded, agreeing with what the Half-Elf said.
In actuality, in order to open this Sorcerer Formation, they had done everything they could.
In the past, they had kidnapped almost all of the geniuses in the surroundings in order to open this Sorcerer Formation.
If Chen Heng could not do it this time, they would have to target true Sorcerers.
However, this would create many problems.
True Sorcerers were not as easy to deal with as Apprentices.
Putting aside whether or not they could capture them and make them sincerely cooperate with them, they would not be able to keep this place safe.
Before they had kidnapped the Apprentices, they had used special magic skills to erase part of their memories, making it so that others would not be able to find this place.
However, if it was a true Sorcerer, they would not be able to do this.
It could be said that Chen Heng had done them a great favor.
At the very least, they did not have to take the risk of working with a true Sorcerer.
At the thought of this, even Yana couldn't help but reveal a smile.
Thus, she slowly walked forward and walked towards the door.
As the light flashed by, her figure slowly disappeared, disappearing from where she stood.
Looking at Yana's disappearing figure, Chen Heng inwardly frowned and could not help but hesitate.
"Should I go in? Or … "
She frowned as she looked at the door in front of her, various thoughts flashing through her mind.
Now that Yana had entered this historical remnant and he was alone, he did not have to worry about her controlling him.
Moreover, according to their agreement, after opening this historical remnant, Chen Heng could leave.
