Chapter 572 Ustalav
On a breezy and drizzly morning, a carriage was walking along the dim tree-lined avenue.
Starting in mid-February, after traveling for about fifteen days, Perenli finally arrived at the southern border of Ustalav in early March.
The traffic was so inconvenient that half a month passed easily.
Nothing major happened during this period. At most, we encountered some monsters blocking the way. However, there were always soldiers and adventurers patrolling near the road. Any monsters were weak and slipped through the net, so it was not a problem at all.
As a place that attracts the most attention, the situation in the Republic of Tula is still in a stalemate as always. Currently, more than a dozen rebel groups are still participating in the grand event in that hot land, exchanging opinions fiercely with the regular army.
The only news worth mentioning is that after a long period of wrangling, the regular army of the Tula Republic finally completed the reorganization of the first unit and immediately led the army to invade the rebel province closest to the central province of the capital.
However, the local rebel leader may have been so confident that he actually sent a group of peasant soldiers with insufficient weapons and equipment to fight against the regular bureau. Needless to say, the result was that all of them were killed without their armor.
.
Being able to take advantage of the chaos and seize the city does not mean that they can take advantage of the victory and kill the regular army. It is estimated that these people really have no idea.
However, the regular army has indeed failed to move forward. Due to the chaos of the reorganization, the supplies cannot keep up. Moreover, they do not carry any siege weapons. They are currently cutting down trees outside the city controlled by the rebels. It is expected that a real launch will be launched soon.
siege warfare.
At present, the regular army is still three provinces away from the Free Spark invested by Perrenli, and it will be impossible to defeat it for a while. It is estimated that by the end of the month, the ruthless people from all over the world will have almost arrived, and the sneaky assistance from various countries has almost arrived.
Once it's in place, you should be able to compete with the regular army.
In short, the situation is not clear yet, and we are still in a state of watching the show.
The first batch of weapons assistance to Naivara has been received, and all the weapons enough to arm 500 people have been sent. And as time goes by, new blast furnaces will be gradually built and output will be further increased.
The gray dwarves have been idle since they finished building the farm tools and a few weapons needed for the Demon Kingdom. Now they finally have something to do.
After the forged weapons are counted and numbered, they will be transported to the forest on the edge of the sea of trees. Naivara's people can just bring people over to pick up the goods. The other party's gold will also be thrown directly into the forest, and neither party will come into direct contact.
.
The water goblin was left in the Faron Province as an envoy. During this period, Navarre had been making insinuations in the hope of extracting information about the person behind the scenes. However, because the water goblin was ordered to die by Pei Renli, he was so tight-lipped.
Not a single bit of information was shared.
Perrenli estimated that it would take one to two months for the Republic of Tula to complete the formation of all troops. Then it would be time for them to launch a full-scale attack. Now they are just sprinkling water.
As long as the various resistance organizations are not stupid, they should know that they must use this period of time to urgently train the army. Even if they are still no match for the regular army on the front battlefield, they will not be beaten to pieces like peasants who have been given weapons.
When necessary, Pei Renli will also intervene with force. Although even if he doesn't take action, the countries watching on the surface will secretly take action. If the trouble is really big, it is not impossible to break the relationship.
Of course, due to its special geographical location, the Republic of Tula, no matter what kind of chaos it becomes, it will not have any impact on people in other areas. Pei Renli, who is a devil secretly and an adventurer on the surface, still has to carry out the school's arrangements.
Next task.
It took 15 days of travel to reach the southern border of Ustalav, but the place they were going to was in the mountainous area on the northern border of Ustalav, a place called the Stone Fortress, and it would probably take another twenty to thirty days of travel.
Kaya and Korra were sitting in the driver's seat, chatting and pulling the reins. In the car, Camilla sat quietly and obediently on the soft cushions, carefully reading the scriptures of the Indecent Girl. Compared to her, she had to follow her.
Cistia seemed very dishonest. Sometimes he would look at the gradually regressing scenery from the back of the car, and sometimes he would run to the front of the car to chat with Kaya and Korra, as if he had ADHD.
Her two guards, Tana and Alindra, seemed to have finally gotten used to the eldest lady's monkey style. At first, they nervously persuaded Sistia to sit down, fearing that she would be thrown off due to the bumps of the carriage. But now
Even if Sistia climbed on the roof of the car, neither of them bothered to talk.
Perrenli is still reading, reading the book True Language Magic. He has recently spent all his free time reading it, which makes people think that he may be understanding the meaning of the book word for word.
It's amazing, this time it's him going out with a bunch of pretty girls again. I don't know if the teacher did it on purpose when he divided them into groups.
And speaking of teachers…..
"Isn't it here yet? I'm almost out of wine."
Teacher Grace was lying in the car like a caterpillar in a 'wasted' state, and the strong smell of alcohol made her nose itchy.
Since I have already entered the second grade and it is a real long-distance mission, according to school regulations, I will be followed by a teacher.
Last year, Ms. Grace taught in the school, so naturally she was one of the teachers who went out to follow her this year.
——Although everyone wants to change someone...
In fact, the fact that it took 15 days to reach the Ustalav border also had something to do with her.
Ustalav is northeast of Brevoir and directly north of Orion. The shortest distance is to take a straight line through the Orion border, but do you remember? Teacher Grace is permanently banned from entering the Orion Kingdom...
So they had to make a slight detour and take the Brevo road to Ustalav, which took two or three days longer than taking the straight line.
"Respect yourself, how can you get so drunk in broad daylight?"
"Idle time is idle, it doesn't matter, hahahahaha!"
Everyone's head is full of black lines, and it seems it's too late to return the goods now...
Because the smell of wine was too strong, Camilla couldn't help but move in the direction of Pei Renli.
"What book are you reading? I haven't seen you change it all this time."
"True Word Magic is difficult to understand."
"If you can't get started, don't waste your efforts, burp~"
Teacher Grace burped, used the small wine barrel as an armrest and leaned on it, saying:
"Although the information on True Language Magic is not rare, few people can learn it. This requires unique talents."
Purely from the perspective of spell power, there is not much difference between True Language Magic and the arcane spells used by Pei Renli, and the number of spells in True Language Magic is very small, no more than twenty in total, which is a completely unsystematic type of magic.
, especially when compared with the number of the nine schools of arcane magic.
"Why is it so difficult to learn? Isn't this all magic?"
Maybe she wanted to show off, or maybe Teacher Grace was drunk enough. She shook her head and answered Camilla:
"The origin of True Language Magic is very interesting. There is a saying that it was simplified from the spell."
Casting a spell requires spell components, and the spell itself is to help the caster better use magic power to construct a spell model.
To use a more popular metaphor, a spell is similar to the multiplication table, which can help you do multiplication and division operations.
And casting a spell without a spell component means that you have become very proficient in memorizing the multiplication table. You can figure out the answer instantly when you see the multiplication and division formulas, and naturally you don't need to memorize them from beginning to end.
One of the sources of True Language Magic is that the components of the spell are simplified, and no gestures or material components are required, so the spell casting speed is extremely fast.
But this approach is like asking primary school students who have just learned addition and subtraction to jump directly to calculus, which is very difficult to understand.
"One theory? Is there any other origin of True Language Magic?"
"After all, this statement cannot explain why even experienced magicians cannot learn True Language Magic. There are indeed other rumors about its origin."
An experienced magician is like a college student, and a novice magician is like a primary school student. If you ask the latter to learn calculus directly, he will definitely be confused, but the former will not be confused.
But this is not the case with true language magic. Even if it is a powerful magician who can destroy the world with just one move, he cannot learn it even if he should not learn it.
"Words have power, and the 'True Word' of True Language Magic refers to the simplification or degradation of the words recorded on the Creation Stone? In short, it is almost this kind of existence."
The creation myth of this world is very simple. It is roughly that the Creator God separated the heaven and the earth and established the cornerstone of the existence of the multiverse world, such as time, space, life and death and other basic laws. Then he created many creatures and the first batch of ancient beings.
The god then disappeared.
With the disappearance of the Creator God, conflicts broke out between ancient gods due to different ideas. In the process, new gods and new creatures were also born.
For example, Talos, the Storm Lord who was once called Xhosa, was born from the battle between the Moon Goddess Selun and her sister Shar, the Night Lady.
The ancient gods at that time were much more powerful than they are now. After all, there were only a few in total, and the divine power equivalent to the entire multiverse world was concentrated on them.
The fight between them, just the aftermath, makes each plane like a small boat in a storm, and may be swallowed up at any time. If they continue to fight, the whole world may be destroyed by them.
However, the God of Creation seemed to have predicted this. He left behind ten powerful artifacts and gave them to mortals to control the struggle between gods.
There are six slates representing the basic elements, which is what Teacher Grace calls the creation slates.
"Influencing reality through words is the most terrifying part of True Language Magic. For example, you can use True Language Magic to create sweet salt."
"Isn't that just sugar?"
"No, it just tastes sweet, but it's still salt in essence."
It is equivalent to distorting and changing the reality of a certain item or a certain area through magical means.
"But it is also the most difficult place to learn, because 'speech' is the sound of creation. Only one person in ten thousand people may have the ability to cast a spell, and among one hundred thousand spell casters, it is not necessarily possible to find one who can learn it.
A man who speaks true magic."
After talking for a long time, Teacher Grace probably felt thirsty, so she took the last glass of wine from the barrel, and held up the glass to Pei Renli without taking herself as an outsider.
"Let me see how you're doing with your studies."
Pei Renli sighed, this teacher is really unreliable.
He closed the book, reached out and drew an extremely complex rune in the air.
So far, it seems to be no different from the rune magic used by Pei Renli, but this time the 'rune' did not activate the spell, but followed Pei Renli's fingertips and was pressed into the feather he used to take notes.
On the pen.
