Chapter 80-8: The Teleportation Network of the Mage Country
"I'd like to ask. Catherine asked suspiciously, "What is the internal teleportation network of the Mage Country, Vivien, do you know, I heard those two mage lords talk about it just now, and I feel that it is very interesting magic technology." β
"That's a special magic array teleportation technique in the Mage Country. Vivian recalled: "I remember listening to other researchers when they were chatting, it is said that more than 50 floating islands are used as nodes to form a special structure, which can reduce the energy consumed by each additional kilometer of distance during teleportation, and then use hundreds of large and small leyline energy nodes in the entire Bute Plateau as energy support during transit, and finally establish a set of teleportation system." This system allows people to teleport magic between any of the floating islands, and if combined with the normal teleportation array network from the Upper Territory Capital to other affiliated cities, these mages can reach any corner of the Mage Nation within an hour, which is convenient and fast. However, it is only possible to operate in the special environment of the Bute Plateau, and each teleportation consumes a huge amount of energy, plus only one person can be teleported at a time, so it will only be used for internal official business, and the lord of the user needs to issue a certificate when using it, and the public servant takes the certificate to transit in the territory of other lords and leaves a record, and finally at the end of each year, each territory settles the transmission energy loss cost to the territory that issued the certificate. As for outsiders, although there are no mandatory rules, according to the default custom among lords, they are generally not allowed to use the internal teleportation channel, of course, there are exceptions. β
"There's something wrong with what you're saying. In fact, it is not that outsiders are not allowed to use it, but this kind of teleportation has a big problem, that is, the user must have a magic channel in the user's body, that is to say, the user must be able to use magic energy, and the magic energy in the body can be controlled to cooperate with the teleportation array, otherwise the teleportation circle will not be effective. Pannis shook his head and said, "So, even if they are internal civil servants, they only have the profession of mage." Even part-time people can be teleported. As for outsiders, because they need to let the inner magic energy operate with the magic array, and outsiders are not like the mages in the country of mages who have grown up in such an environment since childhood, and they are not familiar with the operation of the magic array, so it takes a while to train and adapt to this operation law, rather than spending so much time training, it is better to rely on ordinary transportation to pass normally. β
"Well, I really don't know anything about that. Vivien said blankly: "I guess those mages who talk about this don't know either, it turns out that there is still this kind of restriction, no wonder the country of mages itself doesn't apply much." β
"Still. This gives us a good opportunity. Moore wiped the Flarenchen and said leisurely: "As long as you go to the territory where the last clue is broken, find out who is using the teleportation system, and hold the certificate issued by which lord, maybe you can find the main messenger behind the Sands of Time." β
"If you want to do this, you first need to confirm that the person is indeed Sandy, but you are now lost, and it is impossible to confirm it. Pannis retorted, "Secondly, even if it can be confirmed, it's Sandy." What do you use to prove that he must have used the teleportation system? Even if he did use the teleportation system, in what capacity are you going to ask the local lord to cooperate with you to check the teleportation records? I checked the incident that Sandy was wanted by several major guilds at that time, and he was wanted by several major guilds because he had been using intelligent creatures for a long time, the question is. This wanted party does not include the country of the mage, that is, the wanted notice is not recognized in the country of the mage, and the other party is not obliged to cooperate with you in the information access. Even if the Mage Guild and the Adventurer's Guild came forward to put pressure on them, the lords who joined that region were also slightly involved with the Sands of Time, and they firmly disagreed with your access to the information. There's nothing you can do about it. However, we can start from Fira's side, as an important member of the Supreme Council of Mages, if the other party cooperates as a council, they will have no reason to obstruct it, but the premise of doing so is that we must have conclusive evidence that the person you are tracking is Sandy. Therefore, I think our first task now is to confirm the authenticity of the news tomorrow, if it is true, we will rush to the scene as quickly as possible, and try to find clues before too many people destroy the scene, so that whether the other party is really Sandy or not, we will not be too passive. β
"If you want to go to the border between Faral and the Neutral Lands from here, even if you do it as fast as possible, I'm afraid you won't be able to get there in ten days. Catherine muttered and calculated: "The straight-line distance will not be useful for so long, but due to the terrain, unless we plan to jump from the steep slope of the Marmilla Mountains several thousand meters high, and then cross the borderless sea of death sand in the territory of Bartom, the country of sand, we must walk half of the bout, and cross the entire territory of the Ferrar Empire to reach our destination." Ten days may not be enough after this calculation, and when we get over there after ten days, I'm afraid there won't be any clues left, well, it's very troublesome. β
"So we need to prepare in two ways. Pannis said: " First, the Mage Guild contacts the Adventurer's Guild and the Mercenary Guild, and even the Shadow Hand is counted, anyway, Asker still owes me a favor, and he himself has to investigate this matter, the four guilds together represent the neutral place to negotiate with the Falar Empire, and the two sides jointly isolate the location of the massacre and prohibit any unrelated people from entering, so as to minimize the possibility of the scene being destroyed, as for the other hand, Moore I ask you, can you transfer a few horned eagle beasts from the forest?"
"Hippogriff, do you want to use the Hippogriff to fly all the way down the steep slopes of the Marmilla Mountains?" Moore shook his head vigorously, and said without thinking about it: "Do you want to think about it, it's not that you don't know the characteristics of the Hippogriff, they have certain insect characteristics, and they still have air holes on their bodies, and they must consume a lot of air to maintain enough body activity, and after leaving the forest environment, it is difficult to say whether they can fly up to a hundred meters in the air." If you want them to fly on the Buteplateau at an altitude of several thousand meters? It is absolutely impossible, the environment on the plateau can suffocate them to death. β
"You don't need them for long flights. "They should be able to hold up if they just fly straight down the edge of the steep slopes of the Malmira Mountains and don't need them to climb altitude," Pannis explains. β
"You still don't understand what I mean. Moore sighed and said, "Think about it, if you want to use them to glide down a steep slope, the first thing you have to do is have them appear above the steep slope, right?" β
"Uh, I see. Pannis slapped his forehead and smiled bitterly: "Forget the most important point, unless you take the land route, they can't come up at all, the problem is the waiting time you need to take the land route, it's better for us to take a detour directly, it seems that this idea will not work." β
"Even if they could come up, I wouldn't dare let you ride them. Moore said: "The danger is too high, and the steep slope of several thousand meters, if the horned eagle beast can't support it and falls, except for you who can escape with the realm, everyone else will be killed." This kind of death is really meaningless, and if there are casualties because of this guide, I guess you will strangle me to death, uh, this kind of death is also meaningless, so forget it. β
"When I think about it, it seems like there's really no good way to go down. Pannis's fingers tapped lightly on the table, and he thought seriously and said: "Actually, it is possible to use the floating island to go down, but the problem is that the speed of the floating island is not too fast, and it is unlikely that you want to mobilize a floating island for this reason." β
"From here, you can go north, through the permafrost and then west, a little through the perimeter of the Death Forest, and you can go around the Marmilla Mountains. Moore shrugged his shoulders and said helplessly, "But if I go around like that, I'm afraid it will take more time, and the Forest of Death is not a place I want to go into." β
"Isn't this nonsense?" Pannis glared at Moore angrily: "Actually, I remembered that there is a place to go down, but no one has used it for many years, I don't know if it can be used, and the danger is not low." β
"Do you mean the source of the Malmis River?" Moore understood Pannis's thoughts after a little hesitation, and said hesitantly: "Indeed, the waterway of the Malmis River is indeed the most gentle slope in the entire Malmis Mountains, but even so, the impact of the current can easily sweep ordinary people away, not to mention that there are many waterfalls with high drops along the way, once the boat capsizes, the result is unimaginable." I know you walked the waterway back then, but don't think about demigods and legends together, okay? I see why you're suddenly weird today, and you're proposing methods that aren't feasible, and they're all so dangerous?"
"Alright, alright, Pannis, don't make a fuss. Catherine quickly understood why Pannis was doing this today: "Didn't you just tell me? I see, there is no other way, let's go buy four magic cars tomorrow, I warn you, when you go home, all four magic cars will be sold, don't think I will agree to leave you one." β
"That's fine. Pannis winked at Moore and smiled in a triumphant manner. In fact, there are already two magic cars in the mansion, which belong to Vivian and Freya respectively, but now there are a total of six members of the adventure group, and the six people are too crowded on the two magic cars, and the damage to the locomotive is not small, so the magic car can only be placed at home as a decoration, and there is no chance to use it at all, so everyone has plucked Catherine several times, to buy another magic car, and there is no need to hire a carriage for future travel, but obviously, all opinions have been dismissed, the girls did not expect that Pannis actually used this opportunity to let Catherine relent, once you really buy four, it will be much easier to intercept one in the futureγ
"You guy is using me. Moore gritted his teeth and said, "I almost forgot, you have become a bastard now, I am still discussing things with you seriously, and you will wait to meet the wrath of a chant." (To be continued......)
