"That's right. Pen Fun Pavilion www.biquge.info" Magellan nodded.

"Are you really sure?" all the Academy of Magic professors looked excited, as they knew exactly what that meant.

"But I remember it was due south of the Holy Land?"

"Excavation site, yes, castle ruins, no. ”

A white-haired professor trembled and put down the teacup in his hand: "The Eastern Fortress is the closest gathering place for Scientologists to the Holy Land, in the southeast of the Holy Land, where there is an oasis called a miracle, and in the center of the oasis, is a lake......"

Everyone present, except for Magellan, showed a look of admiration, the power of nature is beyond human estimation, and the lake in the desert is indeed a miracle.

"The castle was built right on the edge of the lake, guarding the eastern part of the oasis, because the pagans always attacked from there. The fort was considered impregnable because there was always enough food in the city at any given time. The oasis is surrounded by farmland by the lake, and even the holy land often has to collect food from here. In addition, there were several oases within the area that the castle could protect, all of which were repeatedly contested by the Crusaders and Saladin the Great. ”

"All this made the Red Lake Fort the focus of many great battles, and the blood of the Crusaders and mages flowed into the lake, staining the lake red, so the castle was called the Red Lake Fort......"

Magellan nodded, dipping the tea in his cup and drawing a simple topographical map of the vicinity of the Holy Land on the table.

In the notes of the missionary Llamas, this is what the Holy Land should have looked like. ”

The other professors nodded, they had studied this period of history and knew the terrain in their hearts.

"We can see that there are four small oases, a large oasis, which is where the Red Lake Fort is located. Magellan pointed to this simple topographic map and poured water from his teacup into the small circle representing the oasis.

"Many oases have disappeared into the desert after centuries of windblown sand, but we can assume that it is possible for large oases to survive, although the area will be greatly reduced. ”

The water on the table quickly evaporated, leaving only dark marks, only the largest one, and a little tea remaining.

Magellan pointed to the little tea, and his tone was very certain: "There is no doubt that the excavation site is here." ”

The professors of the Academy of Magic exchanged glances, and finally it was Professor Granger who spoke, "It's just a guess...... While it may well be true, until it is confirmed......"

"It's going to be confirmed right away. Magellan smiled and brought his cup to his lips, "Professor Cook's archaeological team will be set off soon, and we will see the results soon as the excavation begins...... Well, although it might be a bit slow to get the message back over there......"

"Can the Academy of Magic participate in this archaeological team?"

"Of course, Professor Cook wouldn't refuse. ”

The professors of the Academy of Magic had reached a tacit understanding almost instantly, and seemed to have made up some kind of determination.

"May I ask a question?" Magellan looked at the professors curiously.

Professor Granger nodded, "What?"

"I know you're paying attention to the ruins of the Holy Land because you're concerned about the Mage Empire, but why? Now everyone knows that the future of magic lies in the Essence Furnace, and how important are those few ancient magic items, no matter how powerful they are?"

After Magellan finished speaking, he was surprised to see several professors showing a depressed face, and even sighed.

"It's true that the Academy of Magic is the hottest academy right now, with the most students and the most funding, but in fact, there is one thing that worries us very much. ”

"You know, there are most of the students, even a small percentage of the teachers, who think that all ancient magic is wrong and useless, and they don't have the slightest respect for the ancient magic masters. And what's really sad is that, in fact, they do understand the essence of essence better than most ancient magic masters. ”

Magellan spread his hands: "There is nothing new under the sun." These cannot be changed, although it is a pity, but it is a fact. ”

He remembered that before the time travel, the authors of science fiction novels could imply that the pre-Qin princes had achieved nothing, and the three-legged cats who had cut everywhere dared to say that Chinese medicine was not a science, and that things in the world were like this, there was nothing strange about it, and naturally there was no need to worry about it.

However, this statement was not endorsed by the professors.

"You're a professor at the Faculty of History, in your opinion, is there any point in history?"

The professor who asked the question didn't seem to expect any answer from Magellan, and said to himself: "The essence never stops flowing, nothing can last forever, but as long as it exists, it will definitely leave traces." Those traces are part of reality, as important as all realities, history is not a thing of the past, but a present. ”

"You've been on an archaeological team, and in your opinion, what you've dug up is worthless?"

"Of course not. ”

"That's right. History, of course, is less important than reality, but that doesn't mean it should disappear. But now, there are many people who feel that the Academy of Magic does not need a history department. ”

Magellan almost didn't laugh.

This fact is subtle, mixed with absurd, justified, meaningful, allegorical symbolism, and finally ferments into an irresistible sense of comic.

"You can come to the School of History, Professor Cook will be pleased. As he spoke, Magellan realized that this was a bit mean, but he was really carried away by the funny feeling just now.

"That's one of the plans that we've prepared. ”

Unexpectedly, the professors of the School of Magic were not dissatisfied at all, and Magellan really understood that their situation was probably really not good.

"I don't think anyone has the right to decide what Trinity College of Magic should look like, except for the professors of the Academy, you don't have to be so pessimistic. ”

"A lot of people think that the future is infinitely possible, and that's because they know so little about the world. ”

"The flow trajectory of the essence is elusive, but it follows a fixed trajectory. When you see dead leaves falling, you know that plump salmon is about to appear in the fish market. You may think we're alarmist, but that day will come. Now we can only do everything we can to ensure that when that day comes, our research will survive. ”

Magellan rarely remembered the past twice in a day.

He had witnessed a truly terrible torrent, in which there was not only the mighty soup that the people wanted, the exhilarating death of those who obey me, but also the terrifying bones that are invincible and indestructible, the so-called "great era", which is probably the case.
