Chapter 159

Garrett Nordmark had been on the headquarters of the Magic Council for over a month, and this was his first alternative to climb the mountain and witness the core group of mage towers. The small prepare clanked alongside the tracks, ascending steadily. Because the prepare gained peak, the surface mild steadily dimmed.

Moisture started to cowl the glass home windows. Garrett reached out to wipe the mist away and seemed outdoors. The prepare had entered right into a thick fog, lowering visibility to lower than 20 meters. Climbing additional, rain began to fall, creating dots on the home windows that shortly fashioned into streaks.

“I didn’t deliver an umbrella!”

Garrett pleaded for assist from the red-robed mage. Excessive-level mages might need magical safety, like Grasp Karel, who effortlessly walked within the rain with water parting round him. Nonetheless, Garrett, being solely a 1st-level mage, didn’t possess such talents.

“Don’t fear; you received’t get moist,” chuckled the red-robed mage, Harvey. Garrett felt a bit relieved, pondering the rain would possibly cease as soon as they reached the mountaintop. The rain did cease, however…

A fierce snowstorm ensued.

Earlier than the prepare even stopped, howling winds carried snowflakes, pounding the home windows. The glass rattled, and the prepare carriage itself appeared to sway suspiciously.

Garrett: “…”

How robust is that this wind? Seven ranges? Eight ranges? Possibly it’s even past 9 ranges? At this level, I’m not frightened about getting moist; I’m involved about with the ability to stroll!

The red-robed mage reverse him remained silent, nonetheless smiling. The prepare ascended just a little, reaching a plateau. After advancing one other thirty meters, the carriage out of the blue quieted down, the wind slowed, and the snowstorm disappeared, as if coming into one other world.

“Welcome to Igor Peak.”

Harvey Mage had been having fun with Garrett’s astonished expression all alongside. Lastly, because the prepare got here to a cease, he smiled and pointed ahead:

“What you see is the protection system of the Mage Tower group, Igor Lock. Igor Peak experiences thunderstorms and blizzards all winter, so the lock is normally activated. It not solely regulates the local weather but additionally actively absorbs energy from the storms.”

This… is a big lively meteorological protection system?

And it absorbs vitality actively?FiNd updates on n(o)/velbin(.)com

Even superior expertise in my earlier life couldn’t obtain this!

“Garrett Nordmark? Your paper mentions restricted experimental situations, making the outcomes unsure. So, what situations do it’s essential guarantee accuracy?”

“Animal varieties, amount, caretakers, experimental surroundings, gear,” Garrett fluently replied. “For the experiment, there ought to be at the very least mice, rabbits, pigs, sheep, horses, and, if potential, add pigeons and canine. It’s even higher to have monkeys. Search wholesome grownup specimens, an equal variety of men and women, in keeping with a configuration of 100 multiplied by the variety of bat species. Bats ought to be at the very least 3 to five species… Personnel… Housing… Experimental gear…”

I’ve been desirous to ask for lots! Once I sought assist from Elder Wooden, the experimental situations have been reduce and reduce once more till it couldn’t be reduce anymore. It’s just like the Southwest Union College constructing, going from three flooring to 2, from two flooring to a single-story constructing, from brick partitions to adobe partitions, from blue tiles to thatched roofs…

“In case you’re given all these situations, are you able to produce the identical outcomes?” Grasp Zephyr patiently requested.

“No. I can solely say that the extra full the experimental situations, the higher the likelihood of acquiring outcomes,” Garrett replied with out hesitation.

“However along with your proposed situations, the consumption could be vital,” Grasp Zephyr stated with a touch of a smile. “In case you can’t assure outcomes, why would the Magic Council comply with a redo?”

“I’ve completed my greatest,” Garrett answered with out hesitation. “I’ve issued the warning, submitted the paper. Whether or not to spend cash on it, whether or not to repeat the experiment – aren’t these selections for the Magic Council to make? If the affected person refuses to pay,

refuses to endure examinations, we will’t drive them, can we?”

“Think about this task; you simply want to offer me a rating, and I’ve no points with anything,” he stated frankly. Grasp Zephyr’s smile deepened:

“Then I’ll think about it as your settlement!”

Earlier than Garrett might reply, he grabbed a pen, scribbled two traces on the paper, and handed it to Harvey:

“Arrange the experimental situations Garrett wants, make an evaluation, and apply urgently to the Magic Council. As soon as authorized, let him lead and conduct the experiment once more.”

Garrett: “…Hey!”

What did I comply with? I didn’t comply with something! If you wish to repeat the experiment, do it yourselves! I’ve plenty of issues to analysis, plenty of magic to be taught, meditation to do, and upgrades to attain!

Archmages are crafty!
