Chapter 747 – Elven Spring Water
Chapter 747 – Elven Spring Water
Byron was a bit confused and lost.
“Have I gone mad?” He didn’t talk to the figure who called himself a half-elf, but muttered, “Although I have long realized that I have some mental problems, I didn’t expect to go crazy so soon. To go crazy to this extent should be alienation. But is a person still conscious after alienation? Or does it mean that after my alienation, my spiritual consciousness is actually locked up in a closed space in my brain? Well, I wish I could record this!”
Half-Elf: “……”
This is the first time the half-elf has met someone who just saw him and gave up on healing.
“You’re not alienated yet, though there’s already a trend in that direction.” The half-elf waited for Byron to stop talking to himself before saying, “I’m not dangerous enough to instantly alienate a normal wizard.”
“I am not an ordinary wizard.” Byron said with utter certainty, “I’m using the head of your elf king.”
“…… It is for this reason that I am able to communicate directly with you.”
“You said that you are a half-elf, right? Why aren’t you an elf coming over to communicate with me?” Byron immediately asked the other party, “It’s not that I’m looking down on your lineage, it’s just that in the elf society, the elf king should not be able to look down on half-elves, right? How come he has you hidden in his head?”
This time, the colored phantom spoke after a while, “Is it because I haven’t communicated with anyone for too long?”
“I am not in the Elf King’s head, I am only communicating with you through this medium. As for why it is me …… because now, I am the only one who remembers how to communicate with people.”
“It seems that all elves really have had a bad time. You’ve appeared in my dreams many times and this is the first time you’ve spoken. Is something wrong?”
“We have just discovered the scent of the elven spring. It’s very important to you, and to us.”
“Elven spring water?” Byron got serious, ever since he used the Elf King’s head for his new locator, he had been keeping an eye on Elven lore.
One of the items, Elven Spring Water, although not the item that appeared the most in the legends, was a very important item.
It was said that in the places where the elves were strongest, having elven spring water was equivalent to having a second life for the elves.
It was only before the Solstice Era that the elf spring water began to gradually dry up, and it eventually turned into a legendary item.
There were many functions of elven spring water, and one of the functions that Byron valued the most was its calming effect on the elves’ mental power.
Using the Elf King’s head as a new locator was an extremely risky move, but Byron, who had already lost his original locator as well as his body at that time, had no choice.
After obtaining the Elf King’s head, although Byron had successfully advanced into a full-fledged sorcerer, he had not dared to continue to advance because of the side effects brought about by the elf.
If he could get the elf spring water, at the very least he would dare to continue trying.
Therefore, once he heard the news of the elf spring water, even Byron got excited.
There wasn’t a single sorcerer who didn’t want to continue to advance, and even many sorcerers were willing to gamble with their lives.
Byron was also one of them.
“In what place? Is it in the land of no man?”
“I don’t know.”
Byron frowned, “Then how did you sense the presence of an elven spring?”
“Just know.”
“You’re not being reasonable.”
The half-elf could see that Byron was angry and only had to explain to him, “Before the elf’s accident, there was no longer a single drop of elf spring water in this world. That’s why when a new elf spring appeared, we were able to sense it immediately. The spring that appeared this time is most likely a spring that was once sealed away or even not in this world.”
“Then what does elf spring water look like and how do I find it?”
“Elven Spring Water looks just like ordinary spring water, but when it appears near you, you’ll definitely be able to recognize it.”
“Spirit sensing again, every time, you elves always live so reliant on intuition.”
The half-elf stopped talking.
His energy didn’t seem to allow much communication with Byron anymore.
Being able to explain so much to him was already the half-elf’s current limit.
Byron opened his eyes and got up from the table.
Looking at the mess in front of him, he silently organized everything, and then casually stacked the materials he wasn’t using for the time being in the corner of the room.
“I’m going out, too,” Byron said as soon as he was out the door and went to find Hope, the butler, who was busy. “Yes, Lord Byron, where are you going and do you need a vehicle? Or do you need me to send a few apprentices to follow you? If Lord Tower Master returns, do I need to leave him a message?” The butler asked a series of questions.
But Byron just stared at Hope without saying anything.
Hope took a deep breath, “Well, when are you leaving?”
“Now.”
Hope immediately twisted her head and pulled over a passing wizard apprentice, “Camilla, go lead the magic wolves to the exit, and when you pass by the first floor, have Minx prepare two hundred magic crystals to go over there.”
After doing so, Hope turned back and smiled at Byron.
Byron nodded, “Thank you.”
He went back to the lab and gathered some essentials, then put on his cloak and went straight downstairs to the first floor exit.
At that moment, the Demon Wolf was already slumped in the doorway, while next to him, a skinny boy was holding a bag of magic crystals with a meaty face.
Byron didn’t know who the other party was.
There were quite a few more people in the Sorcerer’s Tower now, and Byron only recognized the two sorcerer apprentices who were working for him as assistants.
He went up and took the magic crystals, mounted the magic wolf, and was ready to go.
However, before he could urge the magic wolf to get up, he suddenly heard a familiar bird call from above his head.
Just as he raised his head, there was a blur before his eyes, and Saul had instantly moved in front of him.
“Senior Byron, I’m back. What, are you going out?” Saul was still carrying an unconscious orange cat in his hand.
“Well, I’m going to ……”
Byron was just about to tell Saul that he was going to look for Elven Spring Water through the Secret Speech Technique when he suddenly felt a peculiar aura on Saul’s body.
The half-elf had once said that as long as the elven spring water appeared near Byron, he would be able to sense it.
And now, how did Byron sense the spring’s aura right on Saul’s body?
“Senior Byron!” Once again, the voice of a familiar face came from above his head.
Byron subconsciously looked up, the sunlight above his head was a bit blinding, and he could only see a large bird and the silhouette of a person above it.
On the contrary, the person’s long red hair was very dazzling, like a flame.
The giant bird quickly landed beside Byron and Saul, and the red-haired girl that he hadn’t seen in a few years rode on the back of the bird and was waving her arms at him with a look of excitement.
“Ah, picked up.”
Byron didn’t even know which thing to ask Saul first for a moment.
……
Inside the Pure Spirit Wizard Tower, the housekeeper, Hope, was reconciling the accounts with the second level wizard apprentice, Minx, who was in charge of financial bookkeeping.
Now the Pure Spirit Wizard Tower was already the most powerful force within the Lordless Land. There were more and more people inside the Wizard Tower, and the Rhine City outside was also developing and expanding rapidly. Although the Wizard Tower had a lot more property and sorcery resources under its name, it had to be more careful in spending money.
Just halfway to the right, Hope suddenly felt a familiar spiritual power fluctuation coming from behind her.
He turned around in surprise, and saw Byron walking quickly up the stairs.
“Uh, Lord Byron, is there something you forgot to bring?”
Byron walked up to Hope and paused for a moment, “No …… I was returning from an outing.”
Hope opened her mouth and simply said, “Welcome back.”
Byron continued up the stairs with a hurried gait.
On the side, Minns asked Hope in a low voice, “Mr. Steward, can I go ask Lord Byron for those two hundred magic crystals back?”
