Release that Witch - Chapter 414

[Chapter 407 Doubt]

“Could it be…she didn’t follow you to Sleeping Island?” The prince quickly realized the meaning of the other party’s words.

“That’s true,” the fifth princess shook her head helplessly, “This person is called Speer Passy, and his ability is a magic power channel, which can connect the magic power of several witches. In other words, during the effective period, those who are connected to the channel Witches can temporarily borrow other people’s magic power, which should be able to meet your requirements.” She paused, “She lives in Falling Dragon Ridge.”

“Since you know so well, you must have had contact with this witch,” Roland asked puzzled, “Why would she stay there even at the risk of being arrested by the church?”

Tilly was silent for a moment before replying, “…because she is both a marquis and the lord of Falling Dragon Ridge.”

“Lord?” He was stunned. “A witch?”

“That’s right, her father, Old Passy, the previous lord, passed on his title and territory to her instead of the second or third son. Due to his high status, Speer can do well She hides her identity and lives a much better life than ordinary witches.” Tilly said slowly, “During the Great Migration, it was she who took the initiative to come to the door to provide help, so I was able to gather the witches in the south-central towns of the kingdom so quickly.”

“Come here on your own initiative”… Roland immediately noticed the strangeness, “Wait…she doesn’t plan to take in her compatriots?”

“No,” Tilly shook her head. “Not only that, she also hopes that these witches can leave her territory as soon as possible to avoid being persecuted by the church. For Speer, the position of lord is obviously much more important.”

If the church finds out that the lord is protecting witches, this position will undoubtedly become precarious. After all, Falling Dragon Ridge is not like a desolate frontier town. There are churches and resident priests in the local area, and the sphere of influence of believers is much larger than that in the Western Territory.

Although Roland knew this truth, he was still surprised by the other party’s choice: “If the local witch is caught, could it be that she…”

“I also asked the other party this question,” Tilly said regretfully, “Speer Passy told me straightforwardly that if she was caught by the public, she would find a way to replace the witch with other death row inmates in the prison. Then smuggle them out of the country; but if they are caught by the Judgment Army or tried by the church, she will basically choose to sit idly by.”

“…” That’s why in order to solve the hidden dangers of witches, the other party took the initiative to contact the fifth princess—probably because of this, the latter did not consider setting foot in the Falling Dragon Ridge in the end, but took the risk to cross the strait and head for an unfamiliar place. Land of the fjords.

Thinking of this, Roland couldn’t help frowning, “Do you think I can invite her to Border Town?”

“There’s no hope, but you can give it a try.” Tilly spread her hands, “I just told you that there is such a witch, but I didn’t guarantee that she would definitely come.”

Roland sighed, “I will send an envoy to talk to her first.”

And the most suitable candidate for this emissary is without a doubt Nightingale… who can avoid the eyes of everyone, sneak into the castle without a trace, and can also distinguish lies. As long as she shows that she is not hostile, the other party will probably not take any drastic actions.

It takes five or six days to take a boat from Border Town to Falling Dragon Ridge. If it is replaced by Maggie’s air transport, it will only take half a day to reach the destination. Coupled with the faster lightning speed, this journey is not too much Dangerous—the three of them were originally the most mobile combination in the Witch Union, but now that they have guns, they are even more capable of attacking and defending.

After thinking for a while, Roland noticed in his heart.

Although the success rate of persuading the Marquis on this trip is close to zero, it is an action that must be carried out sooner or later to investigate the situation of the other party’s territory in advance. Falling Dragon Ridge, as the main road leading to the extreme south, happens to be within the scope of his spring offensive plan.

“I heard that another witch has evolved in the castle?” Tilly suddenly changed the subject.

“Ah, you mean Mystery Moon, she has indeed condensed magic power,” Roland nodded, and roughly described her evolution process, “However, using the ancient witch’s method to promote evolution is not ideal for improving magic power. If you want to be like Anna, you still have to learn the basics honestly.”

“But it’s also a way to improve your ability,” Tilly said with great interest, “and I’m very concerned about one thing you just mentioned: “Ability is the specific manifestation of magic power, not natural Phenomenon of existence”, how to understand this sentence?

”

“This is also my personal conjecture.” He picked up his cup and took a sip of hot tea. “Whether Anna’s heart fire or black fire, there are no corresponding examples in nature. It is not true to say that they are the manifestation of magic power.” It’s hard to understand, but what about ordinary flames before evolution? So I assume that from the beginning, they are all made of magic power, which is the reflection of “heat” in the brain, and as the cognition deepens, the image of heat is constantly changing—— —This point exactly corresponds to Agatha’s experience: Many witches had similar abilities before they evolved, because most of what they saw was the same natural phenomenon.

However, after high-level awakening, the abilities of witches will become completely different, which is caused by the huge difference in everyone’s cognition.

”

“It sounds reasonable,” Tilly said noncommittally, “but according to this statement, if witches of the same kind have a consistent understanding of things, they will still be very close when evolving new abilities, right?”

“That’s almost the case. UU reading www.sonicmtl.com assumes that their comprehension abilities are exactly the same.”

Roland still has one idea that he didn’t express, that is, how far can magic power evolve?

Since it forms the basis of various capabilities, it fully demonstrates its low-level and versatility.

If there is an all-knowing and omnipotent witch, can she display all abilities as she pleases?

“You… come from a world without magic power?” Tilly asked abruptly.

“Pfft——” the prince almost spit out all the tea in his mouth, and he wiped the corner of his mouth, “You, what are you talking about?”

“In the past month, I have read all the books you wrote, and I always feel that something is wrong.” The fifth princess looked directly into his eyes, “It was not until what you said just now that I finally I understand what went wrong. You completely excluded magic power from nature… Neither “Theoretical Foundations of Natural Science” nor “Elementary Physics” mentioned magic power at all. You said magic power manifested The effect is a phenomenon that does not exist in nature, but… magic power itself is a part of nature.”

Roland was stunned for a moment.

He suddenly realized that he had completely forgotten that the other party lived in a world where magic power existed naturally—not only Tilly Wimbledon, but the fourth prince was also like this before he was alive. However, he put magic power on the opposite side of natural phenomena and took it for granted .

Toss this mistake to the sudden extra memory?

I’m afraid it will be difficult to work this time. If the fourth prince’s knowledge is shallow, it is reasonable to copy these books according to the contents of his memory, but why do he not believe in this part of his memory even in words, deeds and thoughts? Doubt, subconsciously divide the magic power separately?

Can he still swear that this is the memory of the fourth prince as the leader?

Roland felt a little parched.
