Chapter 128 About Brute Force Defensive Magic
Chapter 128 About Brute Force Defensive Magic
Ruan Xiaozhe was extremely angry.
"But there is a solution." Amur held a thick cigar in his mouth, lit it and continued.
"any solution?"
"When the time comes, find a mount without an owner in the academy. When I come to pick you up, you can ride it and fly out with me."
"This……"
Ruan Xiaozhe was a little puzzled. He would have to be checked when he came out anyway, so how could he escape?
"We will still be searched anyway, so won't we be discovered?"
"This situation is a little different. I also learned about it by chance...People who enter from outside will be thoroughly checked along with their mounts when they come out, but if someone from inside the academy comes out, it won't be so strict."
Generally, professors also go out from time to time, so the college does not conduct too strict checks on internal personnel going out.
Once, when Amur was leaving with a professor, he was repeatedly checked, while the professor was just glanced at and allowed to pass.
"Of course, if you come out alone, the chances of being discovered will be very high, but if you come out with me, the academy's attention will be mostly focused on me. This is the most reliable method at the moment."
"How the hell am I supposed to find a flying mount without an owner in the academy?"
Ruan Xiaozhe thought to himself, if it really doesn't work, he might as well steal a mount that already has an owner...
"If you want to steal someone else's mount, don't expect me to help you." Amur said softly, as if he saw what he was thinking.
"Of course, I would never do that kind of thing." Ruan Xiaozhe said righteously.
His answer satisfied Amur, who nodded and said, "Yes, forcibly separating the master and the mount is a barbaric and cruel act."
"..."
At this moment, Ruan Xiaozhe was thinking that when the magician's mount was stolen, it would immediately trigger an alarm and notify the owner, so he gave up this idea...
However, seeing the other party's look, he was too lazy to explain any further.
"Although there are still many uncertainties, this is the plan most likely to succeed at the moment," Ruan Xiaozhe thought to himself.
Ruan Xiaozhe did not ask questions like "How can I find a flying mount without an owner in the academy!" or "Although the inspection is not strict, what if I am unlucky and get discovered!"
That's what losers say.
"I must succeed. That's the only way to escape... Then I'll leave it to you!"
Ruan Xiaozhe said to Amur sincerely.
"Sure enough! From the moment I saw your eyes, I knew you were not an ordinary student."
"From now on, I will go to the academy every two weeks at midnight on Saturdays. If you are ready for your mount, go to the stables at the top of the academy tower. I will wait there for an hour each time. If you are ready, we will leave together then."
After listening to this, Ruan Xiaozhe nodded in agreement.
But he suddenly felt doubtful again - if he looked at it this way, even if he paid in advance, Amur's contribution would be much greater than the money.
Every time he went there, he had to wait for an hour, not knowing whether Ruan Xiaozhe would come out.
If Ruan Xiaozhe can't get to the stable at that time, it means that Amur's efforts will be in vain and he won't earn a penny.
"But...please forgive my intrusion, why are you willing to help me like this?"
After hearing Ruan Xiaozhe's question, Amur stroked his beard and said with a smile:
"I think it's inhumane for the academy to torture students like you with those ridiculous and harsh rules. People in my hometown hate those rules very much, so when I see a student like you who has the courage to resist, I can't just sit back and watch."
"Thank you so much!" Ruan Xiaozhe was deeply moved.
It turns out there are still heroes outside the academy!
……
Before I knew it, the time allowed to go out was almost up.
Before arriving at the college to report before sunrise, Ruan Xiaozhe also has to calculate the time wasted on the road, so he doesn't have much time left.
"There's another place we need to go."
Ruan Xiaozhe therefore ran in a hurry.
His last destination was the workshop of the illusionist Baldorn.
Generally speaking, for magicians, not all of them can obtain official positions in the empire and live the life of civil servants.
Some magicians take on quests like adventurers, while others open workshops in the village and make a living by taking on various commissions.
The place where Ruan Xiaozhe is going now is one of such workshops.
"Um……??"
Baldorn was very surprised to see the visiting student.
No matter how you look at it, this student is from the Einlogard School of Magic!
"Why are students from the magic academy here?"
Baldorn is a third-ring wizard, which is equivalent to the second or third year at a magic academy.
There are so many ready-made great magicians in the academy. What kind of commission would the other party come to his workshop for?
Moreover, this student did not look like an ordinary nobleman. Judging from his words and deeds, clothing style and walking posture, he was clearly a nobleman, and even if his clothes were shabby, it could not hide it.
"Excuse me?" Baldorn asked carefully.
"I'm here to ask some questions about magic." Ruan Xiaozhe said politely.
"Hmm..." Baldorn was a little surprised when he heard that.
"Isn't he here to cause trouble?"
The other party is so young and energetic. If I can't answer it, will the other party think "You still want to open a workshop with your level" or something like that...
"Go ahead."
However, since he had received the consulting fee, Baldorn decided to listen first.
"Let's say I want to enter a tower, but it's full of defensive magic... You're an expert in illusion, so I want to ask you, what solutions do you have for this?"
Ruan Xiaozhe asked, blinking his two innocent big eyes.
"you……"
Baldorn was shocked - which tower are you talking about? Isn't it obvious?
"Isn't that the tower in your magic academy?"
Then he took a closer look and was even more surprised to see that Ruan Xiaozhe was wearing the first-grade school uniform.
In other words, this first-year student not only successfully escaped from the academy and came here, but he even had the mind to find a way to break the defensive magic inside the academy?
"This child will definitely become a great wizard in the future!" Baldorn was full of admiration.
Looking back at myself back then, I was probably still smoking and having fun at that age...
"There are countless types of defensive magic, and no magician can master all of them. Outstanding magicians can identify the structures of these defensive magics, and more outstanding magicians can even disable them..."
Baldorn paused here.
This is not only a question of talent, but also a question of knowledge and experience.
A good locksmith will have thousands of lock designs stored in his mind.
Therefore, even if he encountered a lock he had never seen before, he could quickly determine its structure and compare it with the existing design drawings.
The same principle applies to turning off defensive magic.
You need to store hundreds of common defensive magics in the empire in your mind so that when you encounter a new defensive magic, you can quickly identify its components.
Even a genius cannot easily break some defensive magic without sufficient knowledge and experience.
"This... requires a lot of experience and knowledge. Even if I tell you a few possible ways to shut down defensive magic, if you can't master them, there's nothing you can do. In other words, instead of shutting down these magics, it's better to destroy them violently..."
Baldorn stopped in the middle of his speech.
He realized that he had just said something ridiculous unintentionally.
Disabling defensive magic in a clever and silent way is of course a highly difficult operation.
But breaking the spell is not easy either.
In some ways, this is even harder.
You have to know that the defensive magic arranged in the academy is very powerful, and you need tremendous strength to destroy the solid structure supporting these magics.
But where to find this power?
"...No, that's not right. This method won't work." Baldorn added hastily.
"No, I just want to learn more about this method of directly and violently breaking the magic." Ruan Xiaozhe's eyes were shining.
"?!!"
