At this time, Dick's heart trembled violently. The lake in the distance was blown by the strong cold wind, and the waves caused by it were constantly beating against the rocks on the shore.
"Looking at your reaction, you really do know something. Grand Commander, my memory is very good, so let me tell you this doomsday prophecy from the mouth of Madigan."
As he spoke, Ibu read out the entire poem in a cadence, "
The path of destiny is set, and those with gray hair will face execution. Lead everyone to fear the evil shadow and hope that the dawn will come.
Manslayer stepped on Northern Kingdoms, rain of blood raged everywhere. Fire burned all over the camp, and the creatures cried out in sorrow.
The slaughter is rampant and everything is in dire straits. The shadow of doom is approaching, and chaos dominates peace."
Dick frowned, so focused that even his eyelashes did not tremble.
But he discovered that although this poem was partly the same as the poem Madigan predicted for himself, the final content was completely different.
In this poem spoken by Ibu, it is clearly stated that Manslayer came to Northern Kingdoms, and then the camp was burned with fire, and then the whole world was destroyed;
But in the poem Madigan divined for himself, the future of this world is uncertain.
At this time, Dick had already understood who the flames in the poem were referring to.
"Xiya." Dick murmured to himself.
At this time, Ibu stopped talking and looked at his leader with interest.
"Where did you hear this poem?"
"This poem has spread throughout Northern Kingdoms. No, it's not just Northern Kingdoms, it should be the entire Panda Continent. In recent days, someone went to explore Madigan's residence and found that he had died suddenly and inexplicably a few days ago."
Speaking of this, Ibu's words paused slightly, as if waiting for Dick's reply.
"I did meet him once, but I didn't kill him."
"Of course I believe in your character. This just satisfies my curiosity a little bit. And I think if you wanted to hide it, you wouldn't have spent money on giving Madigan a grand burial."
"You know this kind of thing?"
"It's just a matter of Tiny Kelang, and this is the method of other nobles. I just heard the news." Ibu straightened the rolled up part of the cuffs again, and smoothed the golden wrinkles with his fingers.
"Madigan came to Ravenstern City half a year ago. At that time, he told Her Royal Highness the Queen and a group of nobles about this prophecy in the name of measuring the fate of the country, but at that time everyone thought he was trying to please others.
After that, the queen's warlock Barbara disappeared for a while, and when the news came back, Madigan had fallen into madness.
We don't know the relationship between Barbara and Madigan. The Queen didn't even ask where Barbara went during this time. Who else dares to ask?
"Barbara?"
Dick remembered the scene shown when he entered the original timeline, Madigan the woman with two thick black braids next to her...
His pupils shrank suddenly into vertical needles.
Sure enough it is Barbara!
"Ahem, grand leader." Ibu reservedly loosened his collar, "In short, that's all I know. Although the banquet is to welcome Queen Meve, it is really to find out from her what the monarchs of other countries in the mainland have said. The current situation seems..."
He did not continue, but just concluded. "You should make preparations early.
Rest assured, Magic Academy is a reliable ally of Witcher Order, and this has not changed in the past thousand years."
"Then how do we go back now?"
"Of course."
Ibu said in a low voice and began to recite the spell, and then drew a purple-colored light circle in the air with his right hand, the size of a door.
"We have entered the portal. At a distance of 10 kilometers, my body can still withstand the consumption of spells. Please, Grand Leader."
Then, he bowed slightly.
Dick was the first to step into the portal in silence.
Another violent shaking came. I closed my eyes and resisted the nausea. When I opened my eyes again, Dick found myself on the square of the Magic Academy.
But I saw that the square was very lively, and the sounds of laughter and laughter kept coming from the mouths of the little warlocks.
Among them is a delicately carved doll of eight or nine years old, wearing a tall wizard's hat and riding on a cat.
That's right.
Dick Taking a closer look, it was indeed a cat, a calico cat with a white halo that was half a man tall.
The Tiny warlock apprentice on his back just waved his staff and rode for a few steps. After "driving", a halo of light suddenly spread out from the staff, which was connected with the halo of the calico cat under it.
The calico cat's body is glowing with stars, and its body gradually shrinks into the shape of a kitten.
The kitten meowed twice, stretched out its little paw angrily, slapped the instep of its owner's leather boots several times, and then ran away again.
"Wait for me, wait for me, I'll test it again, don't worry, I can't overpower you." A childish voice sounded from the child's mouth.
On the other side, two little warlocks were holding up their halo-emitting hands, and a portrait was rapidly rotating between them. The person in the painting followed the violent rotation of the statue, their eyes kept spinning, almost spinning into a vortex, and their tongues stuck out.
"You guys should stop fooling around." At the same time, a human voice came out of his mouth.
Seeing Dick's eyes widen, Ibu straightened his clothes and replied softly, "That portrait is of the Magic Academy's ancestor hanging in the verandah, and his remnant soul is attached to it. These children are really naughty."
The two children were having fun when they suddenly found themselves shrouded in shadow. When they turned around, they found a man wearing quartz glasses looking at them with a smile on his face.
The hands of the two sorcerer apprentices shook, and the portrait suddenly fell in the air as the spell casting ceased.
Dick quickly took it with quick hands and grabbed the gilt frame.
"Thank you so much, Demon Hunter, this day is so exciting, so many things can happen even if you hold a banquet." Senior Magic Academy sighed with emotion.
Dick handed the portrait to Ibu who was standing aside, and Ibu was tapping the foreheads of the two little naughty things with his fingertips. "Remember, no more nonsense, you know?"
"I know. I know, Professor Ibu." The two children mumbled.
"Go and play." Ibu waved his sleeves gently again.
"Let's go, let's go ride the big cat too."
"How about it, Chief, it's going to be lively here."
"Just call me by my name. It's really lively here, and there is still a pure land in this world."
"Pure land?
Dick, did you know that only one of these magic seeds can appear in 20,000 people, and these children are promoted to warlocks, and only one in 200 people can appear, so there are very few warlocks in the entire Pandas Continent, but Magic Academy has enough foundation, and there are more than 30 formal warlocks.
But don't think these children are miserable. Even if they cannot advance to the level of warlock, they can live to be more than 300 years old with the strength of warlock apprentices, and they can also serve for the Magic Academy or Panda Continent nobles of other countries in the future.
In short, they have changed their destiny."
"I always feel that something is wrong with your mood."
"I just explained to my grand leader the reason for the warlock and the composition of the Magic Academy."
His voice slowly dropped, "Even if we Witcher Order had more than ten sorcerers who died, if they served for any country, the crowns on the heads of the monarchs there would laugh and fall to the ground."
After silence, Dick solemnly promised, "Don't worry, Witcher Order will never be captured again in the future."
"In this way, I can rest easy. I am afraid that something unexpected will happen as soon as I join the cult. Now, come with me to the banquet. Many of our acquaintances will be there."
