#136 - New mysterious abilities

When Mune dodged the bullet and simultaneously mastered the [Silent Floating Charm], a strange change occurred in his magic.

At that moment, Mune heard a crisp metallic clink, but after questioning everyone, Mune realized that only he had heard the sound.

Now that all the urgent matters have been resolved, Mune has time to investigate what that sound was all about.

"Wizard Mark breakthrough?"

From the reflection in the mirror, Mune discovered that his Wizard Mark had not only broken through the first mark, but also filled half of the second.

It shouldn't just be the changes brought about by the breakthrough of the Wizard Mark.

Mune is very sure that he still has a strange feeling now.

This feeling appeared when he carried the Water Bottle Grass to Hogwarts.

"Could it be that the ability to carry items has changed?"

Mune had long been accustomed to the existence of the Wizard Mark. Although this was the first time he had experienced the Wizard Mark breaking through a mark, he felt that the strange sound was related to this ability.

"It's too early to guess now. It's best to test it when I return to Hogwarts."

Mune now travels between the two worlds every seven days.

If this ability can really allow him to bring items from Hogwarts back to the world where Siling is, then the only way to verify the truth is to wait for the next return.

The sea voyage for the next three days was very safe. When he heard someone on the deck cheering that they saw land, Mune knew that the danger was temporarily lifted.

The first mate, Karen, soon came to report that they had arrived at Nitz Harbor.

Only then did Mune finish reading through the "Alchemy Notes".

"Nitz Harbor has the most ships. We have to queue to enter the port. We should be able to land by tomorrow morning."

Through the map of the Vena Archipelago and the introduction of the crew along the way, Mune had a comprehensive understanding of the destination this time.

The Vena Archipelago consists of six major island groups:

Caesar Island Group, Solman Island Group, Andros Island Group, Orem Island Group, Hephaestus Island Group, and Star Island Group.

Each island group is surrounded by dozens or hundreds of small islands.

All these islands together constitute the largest territory of the Gracia Federation.

The Nitz Harbor where Mune and the others landed this time is the westernmost port on Solman Island.

It is also a transit station connecting the Gracia Federation and the Vena Archipelago, and maritime trade is very developed.

"Here, we can exchange all those pirates for money, and then replenish some supplies."

Accompanied by Karen's introduction, Mune came to the deck of the Crimson Moon and looked at the land in the distance.

Solman Island is the second largest island in the Vena Archipelago. The main cities are concentrated on the west coast, most of which are built relying on the port.

There are many ships entering and leaving Nitz Harbor, which is much busier than Siling.

"You can discuss the voyage with Zalan. Remember to put all those slaves ashore."

Hearing that Mune was still thinking about those slaves, the first mate Karen showed a helpless expression on his face.

In his opinion, those slaves were also money. Even if they didn't use them themselves, selling them to others would be a considerable income.

But unfortunately, he is not the person in charge of the Crimson Moon.

When the Crimson Moon was about to arrive at the Vena Archipelago, a secret team on the land of the Gracia Federation had just arrived at Siling.

This team consists of seven spellcasters and fourteen guardians.

This is the largest force of spellcasters that the Gracia Federation can mobilize during the war preparation period.

Even after learning that the court mages of the Menila Empire and the [Night Owl] had come to this remote town.

Lieutenant General Leyton, who was stationed on the Snow Eagle Mountain defense line, also secretly arrived in this remote town.

As the spellcaster with the highest position in the Gracia Federation now.

The appearance of Leyton Gavin made everyone in this team inevitably speculate.

[What exactly is the Federation high-level looking for here?

To know the answer to this question, the spellcasters first thought of Michael Richie.

It was this spellcaster with the rank of major who encountered the court mages of the Menila Empire and the [Night Owl]'s siege here.

"Teacher, it was near the pier that I encountered a court mage with a blood star inlaid on his mask."

Michael Richie was taken as a student by Lieutenant General Leyton early on because he was very talented in defensive guardian magic.

"One star? In that case, it should be a senior court mage. The fact that you were able to escape means that you have not forgotten my warning."

When he heard his student talk about the information of the court mage, Lieutenant General Leyton's face became even colder. "The improvement of magical strength lies in hard training. Your words, student, I will never forget."

"Yes, not bad!"

Lieutenant General Leyton and his students are both from the hard cultivation school among the federal spellcasters.

They all believe that self-restraint and strict discipline can help them find the magical power that truly enhances themselves.

"There are only sixteen, no, fifteen senior court mages of the Mad King. To send one here must be for something important."

The court mages of the Menila Empire are divided into: apprentice, trainee court mage, court mage, senior court mage, grand court mage, and chief court mage.

This level of division, in addition to the magical strength of the court mage itself, the degree of loyalty to the Mad King is also an important measure.

During the last war between the Menila Empire and the Federation, a senior court mage defected and became the vice president of the Federal Spellcaster Academy.

This is also the reason why Lieutenant General Leyton just said that there are only fifteen senior court mages.

"I was just ordered to hunt down Albert Suarez's youngest son at the time. As for what the court mage was looking for, I really don't know."

Mitchell felt that he had been very unlucky during this period. First, he encountered a dragon-riding mage in Liuyun City, and he tried his best to guard the gate of Liuyun City.

When hunting down the fugitive, he actually encountered a senior court mage again.

After escaping this time, he was in a coma on the bed for three days before waking up.

"Suarez, that old fellow can't be a traitor. I don't know what those five old guys in Jinglan City are doing!"

Hearing Lieutenant General Leyton scolding the Federation's highest five-member group, Mitchell didn't dare to say a word next to him.

As one of the designated next members of the five-member group, Leyton can actually give advice on some of the highest decisions.

But since the war preparation began, he has been stationed on the Snow Eagle Mountain defense line, which has obviously delayed the speed at which he receives news.

"Teacher, although I don't know what they are looking for, I later discovered after investigation that they took away the sheriff and the dean of the monastery in Siling Town."

Michael panicked a little when he heard his teacher say that Suarez was likely not a traitor.

He not only participated in the operation to encircle and suppress the Suarez mansion, but also chased his son for three days at the end.

But now hearing his teacher calling the other party an old fellow, he quickly tried to change the subject.

"Took these two people away? It seems that they want to invite that old guy to read their memories."

Reading other people's memories.

Whether in the Menila Empire or the Gracia Federation, this is a very profound magic.

And among the wizards of the two sides now, the only one who can master this magic is the chief court mage beside the Mad King:

Gabriel Walter.

"Check! We must check what they are looking for."

After learning that this thing in Siling has attracted the attention of Gabriel, Lieutenant General Leyton issued the highest-level order.
