Chapter 129 Achievements of the Times: Envy and Jealousy
In that instant, even the wizard Valennir's face twisted slightly—if Loon hadn't lowered his gaze, he would have clearly seen the distortion on Valennir's face.
"Just who is this Thunder Wizard?" Warrennil asked through gritted teeth.
Even a hint of blood on him would be nice!
The smell of blood suggests that this Thunder Wizard has a history of countless killings and may have had extensive experience in dissection and observation. This would explain his knowledge of the heart.
But strangely enough, there wasn't a trace of blood on this Thunder Wizard.
This means that he did not have much killing experience, nor did he have extensive experience in dissection.
How could he possibly know about the heart?
There are only two answers.
Someone taught me.
Or you can learn on your own.
The former implies that behind this Thunder Wizard is a rather powerful school of thought and more than one teacher—he is very likely the sole heir of that powerful school in this generation.
Otherwise, how could his teachers have taught him such unrelated knowledge as 'internal organs'? In the wizarding world, it's hard for someone who hasn't received 'professional training' to imagine something like 'general education'.
This means that whatever Thunder Wizard does, there is an exceptionally powerful school of thought backing him up—and that school is extremely determined to protect him!
Even what he is doing now is directly in line with the will of that school of thought.
If it's the latter... then this is his own knowledge and perspective, so where did he learn this knowledge from?
The most likely explanation is that it comes from inheritance within one's bloodline.
What kind of bloodline would include such "messy" knowledge in its inheritance, besides the models of magic?
That must be a very abundant and very powerful bloodline.
Thunder Wizards who inherit this bloodline must possess exceptionally powerful abilities.
Whether Thunder Wizard's situation is the former or the latter, it means that he has even greater power than Warrennil Wizard initially anticipated!
The wizard Valennir twitched his nose slightly.
Regret was already creeping into his mind.
If this Thunder Wizard before us truly comes from a powerful school of wizardry.
Therefore, what is happening in the Forked Ridge is not the reckless act of two ignorant wild wizards, but a secret plan of a powerful wizarding school.
Valenil was just an ordinary wild wizard; what right did he have to get involved in such a conflict?
Thinking about all this, he felt like slapping himself – why did he have to go crazy and try to get involved in this mess when he was just enjoying himself in the manor?
They've already deliberately walked into it, so how can they easily back down?
"Thunder Wizard's knowledge is indeed extraordinary." Wizard Valennil sighed, abandoning all his smugness and becoming cautious.
"The limit of my knight modification technique is indeed to allow a knight to exert his full power beyond the chasm of life force, reaching the level of spell-like abilities, and causing real damage to wizards."
After recounting his achievements, the wizard Valennil's words carried a hint of regret—though, in the eyes of other wizards, this regret might have been more akin to boasting.
"Unfortunately, the human body has its limits—even a modified knight will suffer a great backlash after exerting his strength to the limit."
Even a great knight only has a maximum of three chances to cross the chasm.
"Even though I have done everything I can to improve their heart function, they still die from ruptured hearts after three attempts."
That messenger knight was one of the experimental results of the wizard Valennil.
He has one more chance to push his limits.
"A remarkable experimental result." Luo Ang clapped his hands in praise, his words completely genuine.
He truly admired the achievements of the wizard Valennil.
Overcoming the insurmountable barrier of vitality!
It's easy to imagine how difficult it is for an ordinary person to become a wizard, how much effort and luck it requires—and what about the results of the experiments of the wizard Valennir?
However, it can directly transform an ordinary person into someone with the power to pose a threat to wizards.
How did the current landscape of the central states come about?
Isn't it because the wizards are worried that the nobles will pursue power and then use their enormous size to overthrow the wizards' rule over the world?
But no matter how large a nobleman is, how can he compare to the size of an ordinary person?
The nobles' pursuit of power makes the wizards feel extremely threatened. They need to create a sense of security for those nobles so that they don't pursue power... lest the situation in the central kingdoms descend into chaos.
What if ordinary people became a threat to the wizard?
Wouldn't that turn the situation in these central kingdoms upside down?
Once such results are exposed, the changes that Luo Ang caused in this forked mountain range will be nothing more than a minor matter, not worth mentioning.
Thinking about all this, Loon couldn't help but have some doubts about the wizard Valennil's achievements.
Is it really possible for the wizard Valennir to research something that can directly overturn the current 'system'?
Is this his achievement alone, or the achievement of the wizarding school behind him?
What is his purpose in exposing such results to himself?
He hoped to showcase his work to other wizards and sell it to them for a higher price.
Or does he want to use his own hands to spread this achievement before other schools of wizardry can react, thereby overturning the current situation in the central kingdoms?
Loon glanced at the wizard Valennil, then quickly looked away.
At this moment, just as Loon's figure appeared incredibly terrifying in the eyes of the wizard Valennir, the wizard Valennir's figure also appeared shrouded in endless mystery in Loon's eyes.
This allows ordinary people to threaten the results of the wizards' experiments!
Realizing this, Loen immediately became more vigilant.
—If it were just about Chashanling, he would still have a chance to deal with the wizards of the central countries. If all else fails, he could run to the depths of the sea… But if the results of this experiment were to be passed on from his hands, the wizards of the central countries would probably go to any lengths, no matter the cost, to kill him.
There was nowhere for him to settle down in the entire plane.
"Could it be that we've gotten caught up in the power struggles between different schools of thought?" Luo Ang became alert and changed the subject, no longer discussing the experimental results.
"The wizard Valennir comes from the Ironfire Kingdom?"
