Chapter 248: Battle Wizard
The topography of the Vilen continent is to show the topography of the northeast and southwest, the east is dominated by high mountains, four of the seven main mountain ranges on the continent are located in the eastern continent, two are located in the northern ice field, and only one is in the western continent.
The human and god sacrifice contract signed by Louis X and the mysterious existence of the Black Forest, if it is really as Su said, the seven mountain ranges of the entire Veron Continent are used as hunting grounds for the monsters of the Black Forest, then the Eastern Continent French Empire ruled by Louis X is the first to bear the brunt, but the Western Continent is much less affected.
Thinking of this, Leo couldn't help but express his doubts.
It's just that Su didn't explain to Leo why Louis X wanted to sign such a human-god contract that harmed himself and others, as he had just explained in detail the reason for the appearance of these monsters in the Dibia Mountains, but changed the topic very abruptly, saying: "Although the witchcraft you just cast is very good, your way of fighting is wrong. I have here a notebook from Tower Battle Wizards, although incomplete, but it is very suitable for you to learn, I believe that if you master the most orthodox wizard combat skills in it, your strength will improve a lot in a short period of time. ”
Although the topic was abruptly diverted, Leo could sense that Sue did not do this because she did not understand the situation, but because she was reluctant to speak out for other reasons, which could be some kind of concern, or some interest.
Although he couldn't learn more about the secrets of the Black Forest Pact from Sue, Leo wasn't too disappointed, after all, he was just a passerby passing through the Dibia Mountains, but the notes of the Battle Wizard of the Tower that Sue mentioned later attracted his attention.
According to Leo's understanding, the battle wizard is definitely a unique type of wizard in the tower, in some ancient documents involving the tower, the battle wizard is also mentioned the most, almost all the battles involving the size of the tower, the battle wizard is always an eye-catching one, and the only case of successful god killing recorded in the ancient books of the Orthodox Church comes from the battle wizard of the tower.
The gods mentioned in this case are not pseudo-gods like the True Eye who have not evolved to the omega-level higher beings, and only rely on their own bloodline talents to obtain some kind of godhead and divine fire, but real gods, but for some reason the names of the gods have been hidden and not seen in words and language.
According to the law of gods in the world of Vilun, whether a god is right or evil, as long as he can break through the life form, then he can live with several abilities that a god should have, such as omniscient characteristics, immortal characteristics, and so on.
Because of the effect of immortality, even if this god is brutally killed, he can still be resurrected in his own kingdom or other places where the seeds of life are left, but some of his power will be permanently lost.
But back then, the battle wizard of the tower was able to kill a god on the Vilun Continent, even if that god had a life seed, he could not be resurrected, and the divine kingdom where the god was located also disintegrated in an instant at the moment of the god's death, and was swallowed by the subspace.
This was clearly documented in the Orthodox Church's secret texts, and the Heresa Society included it in its own internal publications, which led Leo to understand how powerful the battle wizard was.
However, the information that allowed Leo to truly understand the Battle Wizard did not come from the Persona Society, but from the basic wizard notes that the Expeditionary had traded for him. In those few wizard notes, the specific situation of battle wizards was described, and it was also pointed out that the various wizards of the Wizards Association of Silvermoon City in the dream world were also created based on the original form of battle wizards, and the real battle wizards had long since disappeared.
Although the Battle Wizard ceased to exist long before the Tower disappeared, some of the add-ons created by the Battle Wizard are still well preserved, such as the most primitive method of making alien cells, such as the types and levels of witchcraft used by wizards today, and so on.
For any non-research wizard, the Battle Wizard's notes, even if they are just mutilated, are very precious, no less than a powerful wizard's curiosity, like Leo's mastery of witchcraft is all self-taught, the Battle Wizard's notes can undoubtedly help him understand the real wizard combat methods in a short period of time.
Leo has actually been aware of the problem with his fighting style, and it stands to reason that he is already a fourth-level psionic person, and he has mastered so many psionic skills called witchcraft, but the combat method is still melee combat, which is completely different from the combat method of the psionic in his impression.
It wasn't until he obtained the seal of her world witcher from Ciri that he found a way to combine psionic skills with melee abilities. However, this method of combat was still not the wizard's method of fighting, and the powerful sorcery that he could cast in his head still did not play any role in the battle.
Now the battle wizard's notebook mentioned by Su only mentions a little bit of the battle wizard's combat skills, or gives a combat example, which is enough for Leo to use this as a starting point and find a set of wizard combat methods that are suitable for him.
The only question now is whether this battle wizard notebook in Sue's hand is real or not.
Because of the battle wizard's god-killing behavior, the battle wizard is hostile to almost all churches, whether it is the Orthodox Church or the cult organization, the battle wizard is regarded as a mortal enemy, and the disappearance of the battle wizard may also be related to these churches.
At the time of the fall of the Tower, the Orthodox Church had a large-scale collection and destruction of all items related to the Battle Wizard, especially the destruction of the Battle Wizard's Wizard Notes, and the cult was secretly doing the same.
In this environment, it is almost impossible to preserve the Battle Wizard's notes, at least after years of searching for Persona through the power of its own members, and not a single piece of paper from the Battle Wizard's notes has been found.
Maybe Leo didn't hide the suspicious expression on his face, Su easily saw his current thoughts from his face, which made Su feel angry and funny, once upon a time, the witch group Su would be suspected of deceiving people with fakes.
Faced with this situation, Su didn't explain much, and directly took out the mutilated notebook of the battle wizard and threw it directly to Leo. She wasn't worried that Leo would read the battle notes and not admit it, because she was confident that no one would dare to take her account.
At the moment when he received the thrown wizard note in his hand, Leo was already very sure that this broken wizard note must be genuine, because the shell of this note turned out to be a wizard artifact, and the spiritual energy fluctuations contained in it were beyond the perception range of him, a fourth-level psionic person, that is to say, the spiritual energy contained in it was at least above the sixth-level psionic ability.
This is just the shell, the dozen or so pages left in this notebook are also very ordinary, Leo felt the natural breath only on the leaves of the mother plant, that is to say, the raw materials for making this kind of page are at least the same as the leaves of the mother plant, and its preciousness is self-evident.
Although Leo had developed a strong curiosity about the contents of this notebook, reason still made him not impulsively turn the pages of the book, but asked extremely calmly, "What do I need to give?"
In the face of Leo's calm inquiry, it was Sue's turn to be surprised this time, and this surprise was unabashedly written on his face.
It has been many years since this battle wizard's wizard notebook fell into her hands, and in so many years, she has used similar methods to the previous one more than once, and has tricked people who are curious about this notebook, and everyone will be eager to read the contents after getting the notebook, Leo is the only one who can suppress the desire to read, which makes her even more curious about Leo's identity.
Su couldn't help the strong curiosity in his heart, and very rarely took the initiative to ask, "Who are you?"
Leo looked indifferent and did not respond positively, and said, "I'm just a passerby, do you need to know my name?"
Hearing Leo's words, Sue's expression became indifferent, and there was a trace of displeasure in her eyes, after all, this was the first time she had taken the initiative to ask for someone's name in the past many years, but she got such an answer, which made her feel aggrieved like she had never felt before.
Although Su wanted to teach the person in front of her who seemed quite rude to her, her proud personality made it impossible for her to do such a detrimental thing to her identity, so in the end she just snorted coldly and expressed her dissatisfaction, and then did not continue to ask Leo's identity, but said: "You just need to tell me how you communicated with the webweaver, this battle mage's notebook, I will give it to you." ”
After hearing this, Leo directly threw the battle mage note in his hand back to Su, and said, "I don't know how to communicate with the webweaver. As he spoke, Su, who didn't wait to take the note, opened his mouth to question, and added: "It was the weaver who took the initiative to communicate with me." ”
"The webweaver took the initiative to communicate with you?" Sue looked at Leo in amazement, as if she had heard something shocking.
In fact, in Sue's opinion, what Leo said was indeed shocking. Because as far as she knew, in the past countless times when the intelligent beings of the Velen Continent had come into contact with the webweavers, no webweaver had ever taken the initiative to contact any of the intelligent creatures. And the only way she knew to be able to communicate with the weaver normally was to have in her hands what the weaver was most interested in, a soul, a strange soul that was different from ordinary souls.
This method is not derived from some ethereal legend, nor from some monument written by a mysterious being, but from an accident. In that accident, she had just obtained a soul stone that had been condensed from the distorted soul left over from the sacrifice of an ancient evil god, which made her eligible to communicate with the Webweaver, and through the exchange, she obtained a piece of the Webweaver's spider silk, and thus discovered the mystery of death contained in the Webweaver.
Now that Leo had told her that the Webweaver had taken the initiative to contact her, she couldn't help but wonder if Leo had a strange soul in him that even the Webweaver was alarmed.
Although Su has some probing methods that can detect whether Leo is carrying this strange soul, if she does so, it will definitely cause a big misunderstanding, and make the relationship that is now peaceful become tense and even hostile, which is not the result she wants.
So, Su thought for a moment and asked, "Can you tell me what the webweaver contacted you for?"
"He just made a deal with me to help them clean up these Black Forest monsters and clans that Miria City Evacuees encountered on their way. Leo didn't think that a deal with the Webweaver was something to hide, so he said it truthfully.
After hearing this, Su couldn't help but ask curiously, "What can you gain from this transaction?"
"Friendship. Leo said a simple word, but felt the need to add, and continued: "The friendship of the weavers." ”
When Su heard this, he couldn't help but show a look of envy, and his eyes when he looked at Leo became extremely strange, as if he was looking at some incredible magical creature, which made Leo as the person concerned feel inexplicably uncomfortable, and his brows furrowed slightly.
Fortunately, this line of sight did not last long, and Su returned to normal, and walked back and forth a few times as if thinking about a problem, and then suddenly stood still, and asked Leo in a somewhat serious tone, "You just said that the Web Weaver just asked you to clean up the surrounding Black Forest Ancient Beasts and Clans, right?"
"Ancient beasts?" Leo was stunned for a moment when he heard a new word in Gamorei, and quickly realized that Sue was talking about the Black Forest monsters of Mogandy, so he nodded.
"They didn't ask you to protect those who fled?" asked Sue again, with a clear point.
"Nope. Leo also got some hints from Sue's words, and some thoughts also came to his mind when he saw the webweavers harvesting the souls of the avalanche victims and the threads connected to those who had taken refuge.
After getting the answer he wanted, Su's face showed a sudden look, and at the same time, a smile appeared, and he said to himself: "No wonder it left the Black Forest, it turned out to be for the soul." As she spoke, she didn't intend to explain it to Leo in detail, but threw the battle wizard note back in her hand, and said, "You need to help me kill someone on the way over the Dibia Mountains, and this note is yours." ”
Leo took the battle wizard's note again, hesitated slightly, and said, "I have promised the webweaver that the monsters and clans around this fleeing party will be cleared, and it is impossible to leave with you......"
Su explained: "Don't worry, you don't need to leave, that person will appear near this fleeing party by himself, and he is also one of the families you have to deal with, and he will not violate your agreement." ”
"In that case, I agreed. Leo didn't say anything more, nodded and agreed to Sue's proposal.
After hearing this, Su also had no intention of discussing the details of the action with Leo, and retreated into the darkness of the forest again, disappearing without a trace in front of Leo.
After Sue disappeared, Leo resisted the urge to look through the notebook, put it in the storage space, and then continued the previous plan, patrolling around the camp of the refugees, and eliminating some of the Black Forest monsters and dependents who had slipped through the net, and after confirming that there was no danger, he returned to the open space not far from the camp, set up a campfire, sat by the fire, and carefully looked through the battle wizard's notes in his hand.
