Solving the problem of the World Tree under the control of the four Elven Kingdoms within a month was something that some people hadn't expected. They had thought that it would take at least a year. Apart from the surprise attack, there would also be lengthy diplomatic negotiations. In the end, it had all been solved in a short month. The first ten days had been wasted waiting for the Amelan Kingdom.
They had thought that the following days would be like the first time they had suppressed the Amelan Kingdom's royal palace, which didn't attract much attention. But the mass-produced Elven Bow, the original Elven Emperor's Bow, was too shocking. The people who had been indifferent had no choice but to shift their attention to this shocking rumor.
The value of strategic spells lay in their large scale and large area of effect. The drawback was that they consumed high-level manpower and took a long time to prepare. Mages who could use strategic spells together with other mages couldn't be casually picked up from the streets. Usually, a team of mages could only deal a large amount of damage with a volley of spells.
But when there were mass-produced weapons that could achieve the offensive power of strategic spells and had the ability to continuously attack, any resistance would be powerless in front of them. As long as one was the leader of a force, it was impossible not to care about this rumor.
These people did everything they could to confirm it. Confirming this rumor was just a means by which the Elves wanted to attract attention. Most people thought that this was a means to attract attention, but they didn't think about why the Elves would create such a fake rumor.
Scare people? So that the human countries wouldn't dare to attack the Elves? Without using such means, the Wood Elven Tribe and the Elven Kingdom had continued to exist until now. Then, what was the purpose of this rumor only spreading today?
Unfortunately, the Elven Kingdom was sealed off. Whether it was spies or diplomatic envoys, they couldn't easily obtain any information from the Elven Kingdom. As for another reliable source of information, it was naturally the Turtledove Alliance's Wood Elves.
But at some point, these core members of the Turtledove Alliance, the Wood Elves, seemed to have disappeared. They couldn't be seen in the taverns on the streets or in the semi-public gatherings of the Adventurer's Guild and the Turtledove Alliance. Thus, even if someone wanted to ask, they couldn't.
At this time, a mage who was somewhat related to the rumors appeared in everyone's eyes. Even though that mage was an untouchable taboo in the underground world dominated by the Thieves Association, his whereabouts were extremely easy to grasp.
Perhaps his unique and strange teleportation magic made it impossible for others to track him down, but he would definitely be able to see him in Kabamba Academy's math class. Even if it was impossible to get close to him in any other way, his students certainly could. Among the hundreds of students, there were bound to be some who were close to him who could inquire about such information on his behalf.
Perhaps it was because there were too many of these things, but there were always some unknown connections that would find the mages in the mathematics class and ask them to ask the lecturer some questions. Perhaps they were also interested in this matter, or perhaps the reward was very generous, but the mages wouldn't forcefully reject such a request.
After a few times when different people asked the same question in private, Lin decided to open up the fifteen minutes after class to answer the students' personal questions. Giving a unified answer would save him the trouble of repeating the same answer countless times.
Of course, he had the right not to reply to these private matters that had nothing to do with mathematics. As long as he made this choice, even if others asked him in private, he would still give the same answer.
Besides, these gossipy questions wouldn't take up a certain someone's extra time. Leaving as soon as fifteen minutes had passed was also a good way to restrain the students from asking endless nonsense, if they were really not interested in intellectual questions. Secondly, there would naturally be someone to gather and coordinate the questions who wanted to ask. After all, time was limited.
More than a hundred Great Mages or old generation mages who had been famous for a long time couldn't do anything to a youngster who could leave whenever he wanted. With their age and insight, it was quite degrading. But everyone tacitly didn't mention this matter, because everyone was equally humiliated, no one was an exception.
As for the matter of the Elven Emperor's Bow, it was quite easy for Lin to solve. Simply put, it was a matter of shifting the blame to others and pretending that it had nothing to do with him.
Not many people knew how deeply he was involved in the Wood Elven Coalition. Therefore, he couldn't shift the blame to the Wood Elves and the World Tree because he didn't know anything and couldn't do it. Thus, everyone believed him at once. Moreover, Lin felt that even if he told the truth, no one would believe him.
Speaking of which, this was a very interesting matter. The great sage, Duke Wei of Luding, once said that the most brilliant lie was nine truths and one lie. In fact, after entering society, one would find that this was purely the words of a novelist …
The most brilliant lie was to say what others wanted to hear!
Just look at those swindlers, where nine out of ten sentences were true! Apart from the identity information at the beginning, every sentence was false. But, there were people who believed it. Perhaps they were taking advantage of people's greed, or perhaps they were taking advantage of people's panic, but they could always go along with the other party's words, say what others wanted to hear, and then lead in a direction that was beneficial to them.
Similarly, regarding the matter of the Elven Emperor's Bow, everyone wanted to hear that it was purely fictional. Even if it was true, it wouldn't be something that was done under the lead of a human.
Even if someone had all the enchantment methods and magic pattern diagrams of this elven inheritance treasure, and there were versions of them of various attributes. Unless he did the same thing in front of these people, no one would believe him.
In the face of this ostrich mentality, Lin Le went along with everyone's words and said what they wanted to hear. Not only would it satisfy them, but it would also save him a lot of trouble, so why not?
Moreover, after the Wood Elven Alliance solved the problem of the four World Trees, they didn't attack any other forces, nor did they do anything extreme to the human kingdoms. So, this matter came to an end very quickly.
The winter of Year 732 of the Aran Calendar came to an end just like that. At the end of the year, a certain person spent more time at home than in the previous half a year.
The main reason why a certain person could be so free was because the World Trees were in a state of rest. All twenty-five awakened World Trees were adjusting their respective core magic patterns and rearranging the layout of their respective domains.
Mainly, according to the grouping of the Book of Luo Array, the World Trees in each group had to form a connection to exchange authority.
In order to better support and defend each other, the World Trees prepared to turn the Bifrost into a facility. In other words, it would be made into a traditional magic array, with an array diagram facility on the ground that could be responsible for transmission and reception.
Also, because the coordinates of all the Bifrost teleportation destinations were calculated by a certain person before being transmitted to the World Trees. In order to achieve mutual support between the World Trees without a certain person's calculation, the relevant parameters were recorded in this fixed Bifrost magic array. As long as a certain set of parameters was selected, the designated destination would be teleported.
The first batch of destinations were, of course, the locations of the other World Trees. The main reason why Lin provided this Blink spell to the World Trees was so that they could send out troops to support each other.
In this way, the use of the Bifrost was becoming more and more similar to the traditional teleportation magic array. It was just that the core was completely different. And when necessary, new parameters could be filled in at any time and teleported to a new location.
Apart from the twenty-five living World Trees, the task of marking the twenty dead World Trees was left to the wood elves to assign people to carry out.
Firstly, the most troublesome part was actually designing the relevant magic array, but this part was already done by Lin and the World Trees. All that was left was to find the remains of the dead World Trees and carve the magic patterns on them. There were plenty of elves who could complete this part of the work. They could split up and do it. It would be even more efficient than having a certain person do it one by one.
Secondly, and also because of the concern that the World Trees had expressed, a certain person occupied too much of the entire plan. It was so high that as long as he fell, the entire plan might be stalled or even abandoned.
From the standpoint of the World Trees, they naturally hoped that someone could replace them so that their hopes of growth and advancement wouldn't die prematurely. However, it wasn't that easy to find a replacement. The knowledge that a certain person had was unique in the land of mysteries.
Even though the overall plan was the result of a certain person's discussion with the World Trees, the World Trees remembered all the calculations, formulas, and causes and effects in the process clearly. However, it didn't mean that the World Trees could eliminate a certain person and complete the entire plan on their own. The biggest difference between these plants and animals was that they didn't have innovative thinking and the ability to adapt to unexpected situations.
Therefore, the World Trees could only settle for the next best thing. They began to let their dependents join in and consciously nurture the latecomers. They chose the elves as their dependents because this race performed quite well in all aspects and had a strong learning ability. Perhaps they couldn't replace a certain person at the moment, but it didn't mean that they would always be inferior to a certain human if they continued to learn.
For these elves who were focused on nurturing, the first step was to participate in the promotion of the plan. Through the process of implementation, they would deepen their understanding step by step, understand the entire plan, and have the ability to lead. In the end, they hoped that some of the elves could enter the core circle led by the World Trees and participate in the discussion.
In order to achieve this goal, Lin was asked to let go of the most basic and simple work and let the elves do it. In addition, this was a part of the plan, so a certain person unexpectedly had nothing to do.
When a man stayed at home with nothing to do, he would be an eyesore. The apprentice in charge of cleaning the attic complained, "Teacher, you stay at home all day. It's not convenient for me to clean. "
"I don't stay at home all day. I'll still go to class in the afternoon, okay? "a certain person mumbled.
