Chapter 797: 253. Personality Reset
Inside Selena’s study room.
Selena brought over a cup of tea and placed it before Noland Lee, teasingly saying,
“When you were talking to Loymin, I couldn’t get a word in. The things you two were discussing were too unfamiliar to . I didn’t expect you to have so understanding of science.”
Noland Lee chuckled,
“If you were to spend a decade or two in the Tatis Empire, you would be well-versed in these topics as well. In fact, this knowledge is not novel to a wizard. Different groups of people just have different nas for them.”
“I rely built a bridge between magic and science, helping translate the scientific terminology in Loymin’s mind into corresponding terms in the realm of magic. For example, infrasound is actually quite similar to the ‘oscillation wave’ in sonic magic.”
Noland Lee picked up the tea cup, blew away the white fog, and lanted with a shake of his head,
“I should have thought of sonic magic sooner. Fortunately, it’s not too late. Loymin’s words served as a wake-up call.”
“Couldn’t we simply seek help from wizards in the field of sonic magic?” Selena asked, sitting down.
“That won’t work, Selena. Strictly speaking, the ‘oscillation wave’ magic spell and the infrasound in the field of science are quite different. The ‘oscillation wave’ introduced in ‘Fundantals of Magic’ is a product of the combination of wind and geotechnical magic. It requires rock and soil as the sound source, with magical gas as the dium of propagation, and it’s challenging to control the vibration frequency. It’s hard to implent in sea water.”
Noland Lee took a sip of tea and put down the teacup:
“Once Loymin creates the final product, I can modify it to create the corresponding magical creation. They will beco our weapon against the sea monsters.”
Selena bent her arms, propped them on the table, held her chin and laughed,
“So, your extraordinary ability is to transform things from the realm of science into magical creations? Which extraordinary ability is this now? I really can’t figure you out.”
Noland Lee was unfazed by Selena uncovering his secret.
From the mont she agreed to beco his principal, Noland has considered her slightly below Denise Green.
“Enough said, Selena. I’ll leave it to you to request additional personnel from the Wizard Enforcent Departnt. Once I develop the spells to deal with sea monsters, I will consider giving them to you. You can then pass them on to your father and older brother,” Noland said.
“Sure, I will also keep my promise,” Selena raised an eyebrow at Noland,
“But it all depends on whether you can get my father’s approval. This is no small matter; you have to prepare yourself.”
“I will.” Noland responded with a smile, then asked,
“What’s the situation with Berkeley’s magic ship now?”
“Hmm? Why do you suddenly ask about this?” Selena supported her chin, looking at the tabletop, thinking for half a second:
“In my mory, that ship should be at Baldur’s Gate.”
Selena twirled her fingers.
The books on the bookshelf floated like waves, and several letters flew out and landed in front of Noland.
Noland used the [Mage’s Hand] technique to unfold the letter paper, swept a glance at the characters on it, a warning light flashing in his eyes.
Berkeley’s magic ship had not been dismantled.
The ship was being repaired in a large shipyard at Baldur’s Gate, ready to serve its new owner.
And the new owner of this magic ship was the ‘Pure Light Court’.
Another piece of information on the letter rang an alarm in Noland’s mind.
That night, after Noland and Denise teleported away, the magic ship was engulfed by the Lost Sea Fog while waiting for the rescue fleet.
Noland’s expression slightly changed, revealing a hint of solemnity.
“What’s wrong?” Selena tilted her head and asked,
“Why the long face?”
Noland raised his hand and rubbed his chin:
“There seems to be a bit of trouble. After we teleported away from the magic ship that day, the Lost Sea Fog in that sea area was artificially triggered. The magic ship and everyone on it were stuck in the Lost Sea Fog for a full ten hours before the fog cleared, and they were able to rendezvous with the rescue fleet.”
“Yes, that’s true,” Selena looked at the text on the letter,
“At that ti, the ship had the protection of the Grand Arbitrator Paredes from the Pure Light Court. No one was injured or went missing in the Lost Sea Fog. After the investigation, it was suspected that a passing ship or sothing else might have triggered the Lost Sea Fog. Why does this concern you particularly?”
Noland put the letter back into the envelope, gazed at Selena’s beautiful face, pondered for a mont, and then said:
“Hey, Selena, do you rember that ti when I found you, and we teleported together to the Suman Archipelago?”
“Mm-hmm.” Selena nodded her head.
Noland looked around, checked the interior and exterior of the study room with the Deconstruction technique to ensure no anomalies were present before he lowered his voice and said:
“The tal Ancestral Dragon’s bloodline and willpower are on that magic ship.”
“!!” Selena straightened up all of a sudden, her eyes widening in surprise:
“Are you sure?!”
“Of course. Otherwise, I wouldn’t have been in such a rush to leave the place.” Noland tapped the envelope with his fingertip:
“I can confirm that the tal Ancestor Dragon and Paredes have reached so form of cooperation, right on the magic ship, during the ti the Lost Sea Fog engulfed the sea area. There may be a conspiracy between the tal Ancestor Dragon and the Pure Light Court that outsiders are unaware of.”
