Chapter 193: The Past of Shining Star Castle

Back in the dormitory, Ryan didn't feel sleepy at all, and he couldn't even meditate. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

Woodlow's words made his heart flutter, and the so-called magical turbulence was most likely the work of the mentor Taylor had in his mouth.

He wants to find out the truth from years ago, but Ryan needs the truth to change his current situation. It's a two-pronged deal, and Ryan readily accepts it.

Knowing that Ryan didn't have any hope of stealing Viren's notes, Woodlaw was also bold enough to help him with his plans to go to the old campus.

You know, Ryan has been in Shining Star Fort for half a year, but he has never heard of the old campus. Woodlow's words confused him at first, and it wasn't until the other party pulled out the map that he woke up like a dream.

Stargazing Peak is not the highest main peak of the Star Range, due to the flat and open summit, it was originally only used by Bright Star Fort as a place for the establishment of the academy.

That's right, "only".

In the beginning, there was no year-round fog, no towering Morning Star Tower, just a collection of school buildings and student dormitories.

The Morning Star Wizard and those mentors usually live on another towering mountain, Bright Star Peak, the main peak, where Bright Star Castle originated.

At that time, Shining Star Castle was not dominated by an academy, its nature was closer to a neutral force, and under the leadership of the Twelve Wizards of the Morning Star, it was an arcane organization like the Gray Eagle Eight Leaves. Wizards are here to further their education and exchange arcane knowledge with each other, and each mentor is a powerful spellcaster with a reputation for excellence.

Unfortunately, the sudden magical riot a hundred years ago not only destroyed most of the facilities in Shining Star Castle, but also caused a great mage to die here. After that, the Morning Star Wizards argued with each other in order to hold them accountable, causing the rift between the Great Wizards to grow wider and wider, and the prestige of Shining Star Castle fell to the bottom for a while.

Although Shining Star Fort was later rebuilt in the Academy, the days when the Morning Star Wizard used to balance the forces of all parties are gone. To put it mildly, the current great wizards have their own thoughts, and they can even fight for their own selfish interests.

Of course, none of this is Ryan's concern. Since the current Shining Star Fort is dependent on the Academy, the old site that has been abandoned for many years is also called the old campus by those in the know, which is the location that Woodlaw is referring to now.

"This place is more than four thousand meters above sea level, and it is full of cliffs, and those wizards used to rely on flying and teleporting back and forth. If you want to go here, you have to be prepared. ”

Briefly telling the old history of Fort Shining Star, Woodlaw cut to the chase and constantly warn Ryan. Fortunately, Ryan is not an ordinary person, otherwise he would have been scared away by a timid person.

"Although most of the facilities were destroyed by the Magical Riot back then, there are also some areas that remain defensive."

"Defenses?"

Seeing Ryan's surprised face, Woodlaw laughed out loud: "Haha, of course, at that time, Shining Star Castle was not just an academy, as the private territory of the spellcaster, alarms, labyrinths, traps...... All kinds of magic equipment are readily available. ”

"But don't worry, I've got a map to defend here." Taking out another volume of maps, Woodlaw spread it out in front of Ryan, "This hundred years have passed, and the scope of the magic riot is very likely to change, so when the time comes, you should be more careful." ”

"After all these years, haven't you been back once?" Hearing this, Ryan's face showed doubt.

After showing Ryan the map, Woodlo's face suddenly became gloomy, and then he quickly recovered, shaking his head lightly: "I'm not afraid to tell you that the old campus is listed as a forbidden area, not only the Morning Star Demon Guide has carried out spell monitoring on the periphery, but the periphery of the forbidden demon area has accumulated a lot of magic power, and some undamaged golems can work independently in such an environment for many years." ”

"Didn't you push me into the fire pit, then?" Ryan was stunned for a moment, then pouted, his face full of helplessness.

"The Great Magi's surveillance is aimed at mana fluctuations, and as long as you don't cast spells with more than five rings, they won't be able to spot you."

"As for the golems, I left a few from my time on the old campus, and if I'm lucky, I might be able to pull them as shields." Taking out a diamond-shaped piece of iron from his bosom, Woodlaw handed it to Ryan, "This is the controller, as long as you see a golem with the same mark on your chest, pour the same amount of mental power and magic power into it." ”

Ryan took the controller and looked at it carefully, only to see that it was carved with a complex oval imprint, which looked like an eye from a distance, faintly giving Ryan a familiar feeling, making him fall into deep thought.

"Of course, the records I need will only appear in the forbidden area if nothing else, as long as you don't mess around, you won't encounter any danger." Woodlow's words interrupted Ryan's thoughts, and the latter didn't think much of it, nodding in understanding.

Back in the dorm room, Ryan didn't rush into meditation, he stood in front of the window, his deep gaze cast into the distance.

The magical catastrophe that Woodlaw spoke of was obviously inextricably linked to Viren, but he didn't expect that the magical energy explosion would have such a big effect.

Destroying a territory guarded by twelve legendary wizards, and causing a great wizard to fall, what kind of height can the power of the magic surge reach?

At this moment, Ryan suddenly wavered about Viren's proposal.

Although eager to obtain the arcane knowledge left by Yaba, Ryan was not in a hurry to go to the old campus. No one can predict what will happen in the Arcane Turmoil area, and Ryan must be prepared for everything he can.

Having arranged for the apprentice to carry bags of materials into Lancedle's lab, Ryan silently glanced at the alchemy skills that had reached 10 points, and geared up to do it.

Staying in the library for the past few days, Ryan has not wasted himself, and most of the time has been spent on studying alchemy. To put it mildly, Ryan is now theoretically equal to a beginner alchemist.

What is missing now is practice.

Sending off a few apprentices, Ryan looked around the lab, where the clean alchemy table was full of utensils.

When Ryan returned to Castle Shinestar, he immediately approached Lancedle, but the latter only left a letter explaining that he had something to do and needed to leave temporarily. This shattered Ryan's original desire to get some reward from him, but after seeing this laboratory, his mind came alive.

If Ranksdell was still in Shining Star Castle, Ryan would definitely not use his laboratory to use alchemy, after all, he knew very well what kind of person his mentor was.

It's not that he's stingy, as a legendary mage who can't even refine a brute cow potion, how can Ransdell stand up to others showing off in front of him?
