D 'Idarion took off his left boot and knocked it twice against a small tree on the side, pouring out the weeds and pebbles inside. He could not help but complain, "Are you kidding me? Why did those two guys run to the northeast again? When will they stop chasing like this?"
Sitting on the horse's back, Olavian looked at the map in her hand. They had followed the trail of Rob and Lolo all the way to Stanton, but the two had left more than three months ago.
"A week ago, there was a commotion in Anarepp. Many people in Lamu Town, which is less than fifty kilometers away, saw it. Judging from the time, it should be around the time when His Holiness Atledd Richard Holstein asked for help," Olavia muttered as her gaze stopped at a certain spot on the map.
"Don't. I don't want to climb a snowy mountain again." D 'Adrion rolled his eyes and put the dirty boot back on his foot.
"There is a teleportation circle in the Magic Association of Atolte. From there, we can directly teleport to Morvira. From Morvira, we can go to Hillzer. After reaching Hillzer, we are only 100 miles away from Lamu. We can get there in a day on horseback."
D 'Adrion protested, "Hey, are you listening to me? I said I'm not going to Anarep!!!"
Olavian put away the map and looked calm. "I'm listening to your advice very carefully. However, your advice does not help us find His Holiness Atlede Richard Holstein. So, I can only continue with my plan."
The former president of the Magic Association of Gudilesi was so angry that he laughed.
Olavian paused and then said, "Speaking of which, aren't you and him fellow apprentices? He was obviously in danger before. Aren't you worried?"
D 'Adrion twitched his mouth. "With his strength and the movement he made a few days ago, I don't think the temple can deal with him. In other words, if he is killed, we will just be sending ourselves to our deaths. That's why I don't want to go to Anarep. Let's report our findings to the council and see what they say."
"Someone has to go there and take a look first. If it's really dangerous, no one is more suitable than us."
D 'Addarion lamented, "After this, I don't want to partner with you anymore. Otherwise, even if I had a few lives, it wouldn't be enough for you."
While Olivia and D 'Addarion were rushing to the Great Snow Mountain, the dean of the Royal College of Magic and Magic, Grand Magus Steins, had just returned from the council meeting. The regular meeting of the council was held once every three months. However, it had only been less than 20 days since the last meeting.
The meeting was hosted by Steins. Everyone present knew what the topic of the meeting was.
The star that appeared in the sky a week ago, many mages did not know what it was, but the people of the council knew very well where it came from. However, their focus was not on that, but the set of mana sharing mechanism that came after.
Those present were the absolute higher-ups of the Magic Association, and they had sharp eyes. They immediately saw the importance of this mechanism for mages. Imagine, if the magic network could be built, then all mages could share their mana, and there would be almost no shortage of mana. By then, mages would truly become an invincible profession in the Dawn Continent.
This meant the arrival of a new era. This was definitely an epoch-crossing milestone in the history of magic. Perhaps its importance was second only to Roland's creation of the modern magic system. This possibility alone excited a group of grade eight and nine mages.
So at this stage, the main focus of the Magic Association was to find Rob. However, this matter was not easy. The latter had run away from the Royal College of Magic and Magic for three years. He only reappeared after the battle with Gudilesi, and then disappeared immediately. Although each branch was paying attention to their respective areas, everyone knew very well that it was unrealistic to rely on ordinary mages to find traces of Rob. Now, the main person in charge of this matter was Arbus's proud disciple, Olivia, and Rob's former ace of the Royal College of Magic and Magic, D 'Addarion. These two were second only to Rob in the new generation.
According to the latest news received by the council, the two had just left Stanton and were heading northeast. Compared with Rob, their biggest advantage was that they could use the teleportation circle of the Magic Association along the way. So, strictly speaking, the distance between the two sides was constantly narrowing. However, it was still not easy to find Rob.
Steins returned to his residence, intending to finish the remaining part of the experiment before he went out. However, as soon as he walked into the magic tower, he noticed something.
A mage's magic tower was an absolute private domain. Compared to other professions, a mage's body was weak, so they paid special attention to their own protection. As a stronghold, the defense of the magic tower was tight. Mages would also regularly strengthen it, especially the magic tower of a ninth-grade supreme mage. With the accumulation of time, it had reached a very terrifying state. The difficulty of attacking it was even more difficult than slaying a dragon. It was almost impossible for others to sneak in quietly.
Unless, that person had lived in this tower for many years.
"Teacher," the young man said.
It had been three years since the last time the teacher and disciple met.
Steins did not seem to have changed much. He did not speak. He took off his robe and hung it on the hanger, changed into a coat, and then put on a pair of swim bladder gloves. Only then did he beckon Rob.
The latter followed behind him into the laboratory on the second floor. On the marble experiment table was half the body of the Lord of the Abyss. This was a powerful monster with strength close to ninth-grade. It had incredible vitality. Even though it had been killed for half a year, the body was still very fresh, and there were even new tissues growing.
Steins picked up a scalpel and cut open the monster's pancreas. He found the bile duct behind it and used a test tube to extract a part of the bile. On the other side, Rob mixed Silverblue Grass and Red Sea Resin and finished heating it. Steins poured the bile in and observed the changes in the test tube.
In the laboratory, the two cooperated very well. They had done similar things countless times before.
Steins used an hourglass to record the time. After three minutes, he planned to add another magic material into the test tube. At this time, Rob reminded, "Teacher, the blood of a Kodo is more stable than the blood of an Iron-backed Rhino."
Steins nodded and added the blood of a Kodo. Like a drop of oil falling into water, the potion in the test tube suddenly boiled. The reaction was very violent, but it was bearable. In the end, the fusion was completed successfully, and a bottle of strange amber liquid was obtained.
