Chapter 112 Night Raid
"When is a wizard at his weakest?"
"Isn't that right now?" Wizard Sunil replied without hesitation.
A wizard, in addition to spells cast by constructing spell models, also has fixed spells and spells in temporary spell slots as trump cards.
While the fixed spells can be cast at any time, the spells in the temporary spell slots can only last for one day.
When the two "heavens" meet, the spells on the temporary spell slots will completely dissipate.
At this time, the wizard's mental energy will be disturbed—this is also the time when meditation is most effective.
Therefore, ambitious wizards would meditate at this time, and then prepare temporary spells after the meditation ended.
At this moment, the wizard's attention is focused on meditation, the pre-stored temporary spells have completely dissipated, and their perception has shifted from outward to inward—this is when a wizard is at their weakest.
This is the easiest time to deal with a wizard.
"Wizard Ralph, what do you mean?" After answering, Wizard Sunil was startled and suddenly realized what his "temporary partner" wanted to do.
"Wizard Sunil, do you really think the matter of Forked Ridge can be resolved with just a few words of persuasion?"
"Among the central kingdoms, the existence of sorcerers has always been hidden in the shadows, unknown to ordinary people."
"As for Crimson and Thunder, they made a big show of their arrival, letting everyone know about the existence of the wizards."
"Even if we manage to persuade them to go into hiding starting today..."
"And then what?"
"The existence of wizards has become known."
"Those commoners and those nobles will all flock to the existence of wizards."
"Especially those nobles—nobles all have a mysterious bloodline flowing through their veins."
"Once all the nobles know of the existence of the wizards, and confirm their existence... how long do you think it will take them to make contact with these mysterious beings?"
"How long will it take them to pose a threat to us?"
The wizard Ralph looked puzzled—at this moment, he seemed to suddenly realize the real reason why the wizards in the central kingdoms were hiding.
That truly protects the wizards' 'future'.
"Therefore, Thunder Wizard and Crimson Wizard will definitely die—their corpses will be handed over to the nobles so they can use them as proof that they were 'playing tricks'." Wizard Ralph looked at Wizard Sunil.
"Wizard Sunil, I know what you're worried about."
"To seek out another wizard at the intersection of 'heavens' is extremely impolite and would make that wizard consider you an enemy."
"But Thunder Wizard and Crimson Wizard were already enemies."
"So why not take this opportunity to kill him?" said the wizard Ralph, his eyes filled with murderous intent.
He didn't know the real situation or what those wizarding schools were thinking—but he wanted Wizard Sunil to believe that this was the truth!
What he needed to do was to incite the wizard Sunil to offend the wizard Thunder, and to get Sunil to take action against the wizard Thunder.
This was intended to make Thunder Wizard and Crimson Wizard feel the hostility of the central kingdoms from the very beginning—so that they wouldn't be easily 'tamed'.
"No matter what, I will ensure that the wizard towers of Thunder Wizard and Crimson Wizard stand atop Forked Ridge, allowing them to freely display their wizarding power!"
"Even if they are destined to die, I want to make them stand as long as possible, so that more people will know of the existence of wizards."
"Only in this way can I, like them, openly display my power, instead of hiding in the shadows!"
"Wizard Sunil, the Kingdom of the Shield is our territory!"
"Five wizards in this kingdom are already a lot!"
"Even if you don't intend to kill the Crimson Wizard and the Thunder Wizard, you should at least show enough hostility to drive them out of the Kingdom of the Shield," said Wizard Ralph, making no attempt to hide his hostility towards the Thunder Wizard and the Crimson Wizard.
Under his guidance, the wizard Sunil's hostility was unsurprisingly stirred up.
"That's right, you're right, but you can't let the Thunder Wizard and the Crimson Wizard take root in the Kingdom of the Shield."
"In the Kingdom of the Shield, five wizards are already quite crowded, and there is no room for two more."
"Let's go, we're going to Iron Sword Castle now!" Wizard Sunil declared menacingly, heading straight for Iron Sword Castle.
"Tell me, which room is the Thunder Wizard resting in?" Under the cover of his mental energy, the guards and maids in the castle ignored him. With the suppression of his mental energy, he easily grabbed a maid and "asked" about the room where Loen was resting.
—It's right next to the study.
"Each of you on one side, after you meet, first join forces to use your mental power to interfere with him and suppress him."
"Don't worry, there are two of us here. We can easily interfere with his spellcasting by working together." Wizard Ralph nodded to Wizard Sunil and went around to the other side.
Neither Ralph nor Sunil noticed one thing—when they stepped into Iron Sword Castle, a very thin mist was already appearing inside, swirling around the oil lamps everywhere.
……
Inside the castle, before entering meditation, Loon had already habitually cast Concealment Cloud. Ever since learning the "Boiling" spell and using it as his second temporary spell, Loon had developed the habit of casting Boiling first and then "activating" Concealment Cloud for meditation.
Even though he was meditating amidst the swirling mist, with his senses focused and communicating with the "mysterious," Luo Ang's perceptions still gradually spread outwards as the mist expanded.
When the wizards Sunil and Ralph stepped into the castle and into the mist, their presence immediately became apparent to Loon—like whales suddenly appearing on the beach, extremely conspicuous.
Especially Ralph the Wizard.
Luo Ang is currently unaware of who this person is, but the undisguised hostility emanating from him is already burning Luo Ang's senses like flames.
Under these circumstances, Luo Ang, who was still meditating, almost without hesitation, withdrew from his meditative state and interrupted his meditation.
Instinctively, he wanted to unleash a slashing spell to kill the two hostile wizards instantly—the Crimson Wizard's slashing spell landed on the city wall, only expanding it by two meters.
This power may seem ordinary, but in reality, it is not.
Slashing is an offensive spell, and its target is not inanimate objects, but living beings and other wizards.
Therefore, its "aggressiveness" is not only manifested at the "physical" level, but also reaches the level of the soul. While causing damage to the enemy's body, it will also cause damage to the enemy's soul simultaneously.
This is a method that can shatter a wizard's 'semi-digitalized body'!
Conversely, if this slashing technique is not aimed at living beings, but at inanimate objects, its true lethality will not even reach one-third.
Even if the enemy is a wizard—if this slashing technique hits the enemy, it will definitely be 'one hit, one kill'.
However, just as he was about to activate the node corresponding to the slashing technique, the Crimson Wizard's instructions resurfaced in Lo Ang's mind.
They needed an opportunity to speak with the wizards of the central kingdoms.
So remember, never try to kill someone the moment you meet them.
Thinking about these things, the spell node that Luo Ang was pinching changed again, from a slashing spell to a grass and wood entangling spell.
With the spell model completed, a seed was already in Loon's hand.
This is the limitation of the Grass and Tree Entanglement Technique—it requires the presence of 'seeds' or 'grass and trees' near the target.
If not, then we need to consider how to 'send' the seeds to the enemy.
A moment later, the door to Loon's place was kicked open.
Accompanying this was a loud, explosive sound.
Then, a cloud of dust rose up in the room.
