Asking this question, Richard's attempt to show off himself is clear.

Princess Audrey, who had always liked to contradict him, immediately gave her usual mockery, "I want to know what you think?"

Diana and Heloise did not pay much attention to this, but continued to study Richard's drawings. Although the things on the paper were almost ghostly, they knew the geography so well that they could tell what they meant. Now with the help of this sketch, I am digesting what Richard has just said.

"Your Royal Highness Princess, I can't say it, and I ask you for advice. Richard triumphant, "My guess about this is the expansion of the Church of Light. ”

"Since 700 years ago, the footprint of the Holy See has spread to all human nations. They can be quite tough when it comes to spreading the teachings of the Light. One book I've read simply calls it 'Missionary with the Sword.'" There are still some old god beliefs among the sorcerers everywhere, all of which fall within the scope of their exclusion. When it expanded to El, it even launched a large-scale witch hunt at one point. ”

"The rise of the Magic Tower is probably due to this ......"

Just as he was about to say more, Audrey suddenly interrupted him.

Her Royal Highness looked at her with contempt.

"You want to say that the reason why it was made is because of the wizards everywhere huddling together to keep warm. It's an easy conclusion, but it's not worth bragging about. ”

"There is a difference between huddle heating and huddle warming. Richard shook his finger at her, "The process of a wizard's transformation into a magician is difficult and the twists and turns are far beyond what you and I can imagine. Their huddle for warmth is no longer a cooperation in the general sense. ”

"What do you mean, be clear?" Audrey frowned.

Diana glanced at Richard and began to listen intently to their conversation.

Richard was not in a hurry to answer this question, "From what I know, those wizards and sacrifices of the old gods have been severely persecuted. The place where it was originally rooted, due to the intervention of the Holy See, had no place at all. They are like rats that have been plugged up in a rat hole and can never come back, and everyone has left their homes. ”

"There is a side proof of this, which is the magic tower where they live. ”

"In the novels I've seen, two hundred years ago, the Magic Tower was presented in a military fortress-like image. Far from the human world, they stand tall in the wilderness and dense forests, and are hidden kingdoms armed with magical traps, monsters, and all sorts of savage intelligent beings. Magicians give the impression that they are mostly weird, evil, and insidious, and always seem to be plotting various conspiracies. ”

It was not until the rise of royal power later that they came into contact with the major kingdoms and city-states and gradually reversed their image. ”

"In my time, magicians are already synonymous with gentleness and wisdom. Even the Church of Light has chosen to target only a few evil magicians as hunting targets......"

Princess Audrey gave a warm applause when she heard this.

"What you said is really touching, a group of losers went through hardships and finally overcame difficulties and came to success. She paused deliberately, then mocked, "But how do I feel like it's just an unrealistic story?"

Richard shook his head at her, "Stories are sometimes a reflection of reality, a hazy reflection in the water. ”

Because of this philosophical remark, even Heloise looked at him with bright eyes, looking forward to what he was about to say.

"Since you have told the story, then I will tell you a story for Her Royal Highness. ”

Richard was afraid that the person in front of him would not understand, so he had to use metaphors.

"A poor pharmacist living in El who has a secret recipe in his hand. The secret recipe describes a special potion that can make people strong and strong, and has great value. But there was a medicinal herb in it that had become extinct in El, and he couldn't find it. Therefore, this secret recipe can only be a piece of waste paper. Pharmacists have always lived in poverty. ”

At the same time, in the mountains of Edo, there was a peasant. He happened to know how to grow that kind of medicinal herb, and he also had its seeds. This is passed down from his ancestors, and it is only said that it is a medicinal herb that can be mixed with other plants to form a precious medicine. But neither he nor his ancestors knew the recipe, and neither the local people of Edo considered the herb valuable. As a result, the peasant had no choice but to remain anonymous. ”

"They're all losers in life, right?"

"But what if one day, this apothecary of the El, travels to Edo and meets the farmer?"

"I think it's quite possible that such an encounter has happened every year for the past 700 years. Even every month, even every day......"

Princess Audrey, who was originally going to refute, suddenly stopped talking.

The other two were also immersed in thought.

"Originally, magic was the power that humans could wield. Primordial magic is too precious for only a few to possess. The giving of magic is a special gift from the gods, and it does not belong to ordinary people. Spells, runes, and magic arrays are the special creations of people to learn all things, and they are also the most important way to make up for their own shortcomings. Richard added, "The spell of the El is the accumulation of generations of the El. The runes of Edo are the crystallization of the wisdom of Edo. From this point of view, they are no different. But this place of El has its own special features, and Edo has many differences. Once they are mixed, who's to say they won't have the effect in this story. ”

"Actually, a lot of times, one plus one doesn't equal two. ”

"Because the whole is not equal to the sum of its parts!"

After he finished speaking, there was a brief silence in the cellar.

"I now understand your sentence 'there is a difference between huddle heating and huddle warming'. "If your guess is true, it seems that their cooperation is indeed more than just a common enemy. While their interests are closely combined, they dedicate their respective inherited knowledge and strength to each other for learning from, achieving a great integration. ”

Richard nodded at her, glad she could figure out what she meant.

"Failure leads to success, and misfortune gives birth to miracles. To be able to explain this so adequately, you really deserve to be a smart man. ”

Diana stared at Richard with emotion.

Just as Richard looked shy and was about to say a few words, Diana, whose red hair was fluttering, couldn't help but tease, "But if you make this discovery public, I'm afraid what awaits you is a sharp stake and a large pile of firewood." You're going to be bloodied and burned in front of you in a square......"

At this moment, not only Audrey couldn't help but laugh, but even Heloise couldn't help but laugh. Although the corners of this cold beauty's mouth curled slightly, she immediately changed back to her original cold appearance.

Richard also looked helpless.

"That's why I said it was a windfall. But don't worry, I'm sure. Isn't it just a trifle to prove that I'm a smart person? ”

He was afraid that the people in front of him would not believe him, so he specially added, "You guys wait and see, I already have a detailed plan, and now I only need to verify two things......
