Chapter 667: 213. Casual Mode_3
“I’m not denying the gains we made tonight, Jarvis.” Selena took a deep breath and said:
“But shouldn’t you consider your own future? You were indeed the biggest contributor tonight, but you’ve also offended the Pangula family to death. Compared to the loss of the mines, a family like Pangula cares more about their honor and influence. We should have handled Dickler Fegan’s collusion with the Dread Sail in a more dignified manner.”
Noland Lee asked:
“Does the method you mentioned include putting Dickler Fegan on trial? I mean, to try him in the form required by the Ulnas Ring Law. It can be executed by any enforcement wizard forces, including but not limited to the ‘Silent Maiden’, Pure Light Court. Under the 3rd law, which governs the behavior of wizard families, Dickler Fegan will face at least 20 years in prison. Is that his final fate, madam?”
Selena fell silent for a moment:
“… Ideally, he would receive his deserved punishment.”
Noland Lee picked up the conversation:
“That is to say, under normal circumstances, he can escape responsibility, right?”
Selena crossed her arms and looked out at the sea through the window:
“Yes.”
“I think that’s where our difference lies, madam.” Noland Lee leaned back in the soft car seat.
He fixed his gaze on Selena, staring at her beautiful side profile and fair white neck, sending out a wave of Deconstruction after another, revealing fragments of Deconstruction results in his mind.
Noland Lee read the Deconstruction results thoughtfully.
He clapped his hands and said sincerely:
“Thank you for protecting me, madam.”
Selena nodded her head, glanced at Noland Lee, and turned her head back to the window:
“I did it on behalf of Erica. Don’t be so impulsive next time.”
“Alright, I accept your advice.” Noland Lee took out a thin handcrafted rope from his Magic Pouch.
He wrapped the handcrafted rope with his hands, fixing it into a specific shape while speaking:
“You know, madam, I was always intrigued by the ‘Lecturer Professor’s authorization to use high-level spells’ before I arrived at the Suman Archipelago. Having ‘Magic Proficient,’ I find it difficult to understand why casting a spell requires someone else’s authorization.”
“After coming to the Suman Archipelago, I spent a lot of time studying the Dragon Clan treasure thrown from the Spinning Continent, and I’ve also talked with fellow enthusiasts and learned some rather credible information.”
“Hmm.” Selena gave a perfunctory hum.
Noland Lee continued to weave the rope knots in his hand:
“Before the beginning of this epoch, this world was controlled by the Dragon Clan. The Dragon Clan is a hierarchical and extraordinary species. In order to firmly control the power of magic, they created a world wonder called the ‘Ascension Fortress.’
“The ‘Ascension Fortress’ covers a vast area and towers into the clouds, resembling a high tower. It is divided into ten levels from bottom to top, each level having an area equal to ten human cities. Inside the fortress, a vast amount of magical knowledge is stored. The dragon clan divides different knowledge storage areas in each level according to the usage of magical knowledge. The higher the level, the more powerful the magical knowledge.
“The magical knowledge in the ‘Ascension Fortress’ exists in a mysterious form. There are rumors that it comes from an even older epoch. But anyhow, it doesn’t change the fact:
“Only by obtaining the permission to enter higher floors of the ‘Ascension Fortress’ can one learn the magical knowledge within and thus control even more powerful magic. Have you heard of such rumors, madam?”
“Yes, there is such a saying.” Selena coldly replied.
Noland Lee finished his handiwork and examined the rope knots he made.
He wasn’t bothered by Selena’s coldness, and instead kept speaking:
“As far as I know, the ‘Ascension Fortress’ was destroyed in the Doomsday Catastrophe. But its magical knowledge has been passed down and lingers in this world in an inexplicable form. Some people believe that the act of wizards inventing spells is actually ‘discovery’ rather than ‘invention.’ All spells had already existed in the world before being ‘invented’ by wizards. We wizards are simply ‘discoverers.’
“The knowledge to cast spells comes from the de-materialized ‘Ascension Fortress.’ Magical knowledge has not only been completely preserved from the Doomsday Catastrophe but has also inherited the ‘reading permissions’ imposed on it by the Dragon Clan. Only those who meet the ‘reading requirements’ can obtain ‘reading permissions’ and then create spells in bursts of inspiration, or learn spells in sudden moments of enlightenment.
“Do you agree with this view, madam?”
Noland Lee sat up straight, holding the rope knot in his hand, and smiled at Selena.
Selena nodded her chin:
“Partially.”
Yeah, partially. Noland Lee knew it would be that answer because what he had just spoken was extracted from her memory fragments.
As for the rope knot in his hand now…
Noland Lee said:
“I found a very interesting Dragon Clan pattern, but I never quite understood its meaning. I’m giving you this pattern as a reward for protecting me.”
“No, sorry, I’m not interested in Dragon Clan patterns.” Selena looked out of the window and replied without looking back.
“You will be interested.” Noland Lee flicked his wrist, tossing the rope knot and bringing it to her face with his [Mage’s Hand].
