Mage? Spell Engineer!
Chapter 84 Investigation Team
After a day's journey, Rorschach arrived at the nearest big city to the Black Forest, Pema, the capital of the Principality of Württemberg.
The criterion for whether it is a big city is simple: whether there is a magic guild resident. Yes, it is a big city.
The guilds in Peima City are also quite large. It should be said that the entire city is relatively prosperous: it is the economic intersection of the southwest of the empire, and it also produces horses and concentrates the rich products of the Black Forest.
Rorschach went to the mail delivery room underground of the guild. There were two transmission arrays here.
"This document is addressed to the Forest Tower. Well, there is no specific recipient. It is an official letter." Rorschach took out the compiled materials and letters of introduction, including the map with old Meyerson's information attached. "Send this copy to the Tower of Stars, Archmage Leonor Cano."
The staff looked at it and said, "I'm sorry, this one is overweight, so I need to charge you for two." She was referring to the one for the Forest Tower.
"In addition," the other party apologized and pulled out a document to Rorschach: "This is a cross-border letter. You need to fill out a form. We need to keep the time and purpose of sending your letter."
Before Rorschach said anything, the staff immediately explained: "You see, we are also trying to cope with the new bill. We just need to fill it in casually and don't fill in the wrong date."
Is the guild really complying with the Empire's new laws? Such a gesture was beyond Rorschach's expectations, but he didn't know the magic guilds in the empire as well as the branches in the kingdom, and he couldn't find out the reasons behind it.
"Is there a portable teleportation scroll? I can send letters at any time."
"Yes, but the other end of the portable scroll connection is fixed and requires a continuous and stable energy supply. You can choose to bind it to the teleportation array of our guild to ensure that it can be successfully sent and received."
Transmission requires energy and spiritual materials. The portable scroll must be bound to a "high-power host" to be effective. There is no communication between the portable scroll and the portable scroll.
"Then please allow me to attach another letter to the documents of Tower of Stars."
Rorschach planned to send a letter to Kano first. He guessed that the Tower of Stars should have its own transmission address and did not need to be relayed through the Magic Guild.
Replies from both parties were received the next day. Knowing that Rorschach was in the city waiting for a reply, the guild employees gave Rorschach a hand of cards - relying on the secret contract, he would be vibrated whenever there was news that required his signature.
Kano's reply was a large piece of parchment, but contained only one sentence: You can purchase a blank communication scroll and fill the inner ring yourself with undiluted standard concentration Thoth alchemical ink.
So Rorschach bought three copies in one go. This thing was very expensive. Although it was not a disposable item, the bound permanent magic circle could not be changed after the inner ring was constructed.
They don't just have to pay twice, right? Mori Tower's reply also contained a large amount of material, which was delivered in two subpoenas.
Returning to the accommodation room, Rorschach first used [Magic Detection] to check the surrounding environment. After confirming that there was no magic reaction, he checked Kano's reply volume. Sure enough, there was a large hazy magical light in the blank space, but the content could not be seen clearly.
Rorschach carefully checked the parchment again, and there were small words on the back: If you don’t know [Reading Magic], just use your Tower of Stars identity card to stick it on, kid!
Was this all predicted by the instructor? Rorschach took out a card that he hadn't used for a long time, and as expected, he reacted as soon as he leaned close to it. The content revealed by the spell cover is the core of the teleportation array and should point to the Tower of Stars or Master Kano himself.
In order to ensure the reproducibility of the drawing, the pattern of the core of the array uses standard drawing methods: blue ink draws auxiliary lines, red ink marks the length of each straight line, the radius of curvature of each curve, each angle and radian, and finally The thick solid black line is the core that Rorschach will outline with alchemical ink.
Bad memories from my past life are attacking me! Rorschach thought of the days when he stayed up late to complete engineering drawings. He missed CAD a little now. At least he didn't have to draw by hand, right?
The reply from Forest Tower contained more information, including members of the dispatched investigation team:
Alexander von Humboldt, the eighth-level archmage who led the team; Peterson, the second-level mage; and three apprentices.
Send the Archmage directly? Rorschach then understood that it was a matter of lost gods after all, so sending high-end combat power was the safest approach. Well, it's much more reliable than the magic tower of a certain holy kingdom.
Rorschach looked at a large package of things sent by the Tower of Forest. There was also extremely detailed information: there were forest vegetation distribution maps, rainfall distribution maps, water system and terrain maps. Although there was a lot of labeled data, there were still large areas of blank space. place.
Observing the entire forest, there are more human settlements and strongholds toward the west, and less recorded information toward the east with the mountain range as the boundary. The vegetation is densest in the north, dominated by pine, cedar, and cypress, and oak dominates in the middle. In the south, forests and meadows are mixed, which is the pastoral area and horse-producing area of the Principality of Württemberg.
According to old Meyerson's route map, the team at that time should have passed through the gap in the mountains and penetrated deep into the hinterland of the central and eastern part of the forest. On the way, Rorschach noticed that the map sent by the Forest Tower marked a crossed-out hut - the original elf settlement.
What follows is a long list of personal supplies Rorschach needs to prepare before entering the forest.
"Sleeping bags, tung oil tarpaulins, machetes, compass bandages, sugar, dry biscuits and other foods high in nutrients. Please be sure to bring enough warm clothes and leggings."
Finally, I specially wrote a line: Master Rorschach, please believe in our Forest Tower, you don’t need to prepare herbs to prevent insect bites!
We will gather at the Magic Guild Hall of Fort Pema at 9am two days later. We look forward to meeting you!
It's very thoughtful, and it showed a little bit of pride in me at the end. Rorschach smiled knowingly after reading it. In addition to these, he also wanted to buy measuring tools, compasses and alchemical ink for ruler and compass drawing.
At nine o'clock, in the hall, Rorschach saw a person whose main tone was green:
The middle-aged man who headed the group had more decorations on his clothes and showed his own magnanimity. The young man behind him had a tall hairline and wore round glasses. Behind him were two men and one woman. The boy had the biggest and heaviest backpack.
It should be the Forest Tower team, Rorschach judged.
Instead of the mage robes and apprentice robes that fluttered to the ground, Forest Tower wore leggings, and the coat fit as closely as possible and had many exposed pockets. Compared with the legendary druids, they are full of explorers. Each of the visitors was holding an oak staff half as long as a man, but it looked more like a hiking stick than a staff.
"Nice to meet you!" The leader of the team, Archmage Humboldt, was full of energy. His face was plump and his eyes were firm. The hand holding Rorschach was thick and powerful, and his rough palm was like that of a farmer: "We heard about the secondary position. The wonderful adventures ahead, I didn’t expect you to be so young.”
No, I was forced that time, just like now my hand is firmly held by you and forced to move around.
Rorschach felt that Mr. Humboldt's handshake was too wide, and was about to withdraw his hand before dislocating it. At this time, the door of the magic guild was opened again, and there was a tall and majestic figure in the backlight.
No, there was a young man carrying a package that was two heads taller than his own. He yelled at Rorschach:
"Master Luo Xia! I am Cavendish, a three-year apprentice in the Tower of Stars. Master Kano asked me to go with you!"
I'm going to do a long-standing professional experiment in the afternoon, and it should probably be done in the evening, probably at 9 p.m., sorry, sorry
