South of Brittany, the Tower of Learning.

Standing on the green lawn, Heath looked up at the ancient tower in front of him. It was a standard Gothic tower building built with large pieces of blue-gray stones, composed of a main tower and several attached towers, with four floors at the highest point. It is considered majestic on this land that is still a popular adobe building.

However, at this moment, there are signs of being burned by fire on the top tower.

The reason is...

"Fire? Are you saying there was a fire here?" Magra asked at the Grand Sir Boer in front of him.

Boul said: "Yes, it happened the night before yesterday."

Magra frowned tightly: "It really happened in the room where my people are?"

Boul said: "Yes, they live on the top floor."

Magra asked with a somewhat ugly face: "Then they now..."

Boul said: "I'm sorry."

Things went against my wishes. Just the night before Heath and his men arrived at Xueta, a fire broke out in Xueta. What's even more bizarre is that the fire happened in the room where Magra was in, and none of the quite incredible survivors were left behind.

There is a conspiracy!

This was the first reaction between Heath and Magra. After all, there was no such coincidence in the world. They started burning as soon as they arrived at the Xuetao and burned all the insiders to death. Even if the Xuetao rescue was not timely, could not even a single living person run out?

With such subjective judgment in mind, Heath began to investigate the fire scene, trying to restore the truth of the incident. After careful investigation, Heath finally found out that it was...

It's really an ordinary fire!

Yes, from the remaining traces on the scene, Magra's people were not careful with the fire at night, causing the candlestick to light the curtains and ignite the bookshelf in the room. The people inside tried to escape after failing to put out the fire, but their heads were broken and unrepaired under the scorching fire, which eventually led to the tragedy...

Apart from being too coincidental, this fire is really nothing special. The "Study Tower deliberately created to cover up some truth" and "Arranged by other relics" and even "Magra deliberately backstabs" and so on, all of which did not exist.

‘Is it really a wizard’s curse?’

Standing among the burnt ruins, Heath frowned and pondered.

According to Xueta University St. Boer, similar things have happened not the first time. Once a scholar gets involved in things related to the hedge remains, something unfortunate will happen, breaking his head, falling down the stairs, inexplicably injured or even dead, etc.

The father of the Cat Girl Sisters like Deep Water Harbor was said to have suddenly fallen ill and died after reading some information about the Hedge Relics.

Over time, scholars who studied the tower attributed this to the 'wizard's curse', saying that the wizard who once lived in the hedge ruins had cursed the hedge ruins. Anyone who studied it would encounter misfortune. This was an open secret in the learning tower. Even when the people of Magra came to the learning tower, scholars who studied the tower had already had a foreshadowing that there would be today.

This is why no scholar has solved the secret of hedge relics over the years.

"Sir, can you...can you tell what kind of magic this is?" Magra asked with a frown.

Heath frowned.

How do you look at it? There are burnt wood on the scene, and there is no trace of fighting. I don’t even know if it is caused by magic. If you can tell, there is a ghost...

But if it is not magic, Heath really can't find other explanations that so many coincidences have happened... and in the unfathomable realm of magic, there are really some spells that can achieve such effects, fate, curses, etc.... There are even related magic and knowledge during the apprenticeship...

Not to mention the distance, isn’t Magra a typical example? Heath has not forgotten what circumstances the two met. If he hadn’t met him by chance, he would have been fed to the wild beasts in the forest by a robber…

‘If it is the sixth rune condensed, you can try it with the unique ability of the sixth rune, but now...’

After hesitating for a moment, Heath said, "Let's stop here in advance."

If magic really participates in it, it will definitely be medium and high magic. At least from Heath's cognition, such a curse of ability cannot be used by an apprentice, and even ordinary low-level wizards may not be able to do it.

This level has far exceeded the limit he can handle. No matter how curious he is, it is unreasonable to die in vain, right?

‘Let’s look back and ask the tree sea, maybe you will know something there, right?’

'after all...'

‘What involves this level of wizard...is not a trivial matter...’

Unwillingly Magra searched the room again, trying to find something valuable, even a manuscript was good.

Unfortunately, including the notes that recorded the "hidden text", all the paper materials were burned in the fire. In the end, Magra only found a few biographies from the ruins. Heath took them to search for them, introducing some of the great nobles and families of Brittany.

The clues are interrupted here.

......

Heath stayed in Xueta for a month, and after a month, he returned to a boulevard in the gray woodland.

"Da da da da da..."

“Wheel wheel…”

The sound of horse hooves and the sound of wheels rotating sounded, and a convoy of three carriages slowly advanced on the dirt road.

When compared, there was one more carriage of Heath and his group. The one extra was given by scholars from the tower, and it was filled with books filled with carriages.

This is also the main reason why Heath stayed in Xueta for a whole month.

Although the clues about the hedge remains were not found, Xuetaxis accidentally discovered many books that he was interested in, such as "General History of Brittany", "Geographical Guide to Gray Woodlands", "On the Relationships between Nobles", etc., astronomy, geography, history, production, war, etc. As the largest and only knowledge-focused production center in Brittany, the knowledge materials included in Xuetaxi almost cover everything in this land. Heath, who was very interested in knowledge, could not get out of it as soon as he fell into it.

In addition, there is another point that attracts Heath here...

"Drip, successfully extract, gain knowledge: a discussion of the advantages and disadvantages of topography and landforms on war."

"Drip, successfully draw, gain knowledge: Brittany national customs."

"Drip, the extraction is successful, and knowledge is gained:..."

The extraction is largely affected by the objects being extracted. If the apprentice is drawn, you can often draw mental power or magic related. If the knight is drawn, you can draw swordsmanship, and if the hunter is drawn, you can obtain hunting. Here, these scholars can always draw various valuable knowledge.

You should know that many of this knowledge are the result of the scholars spending decades and devoted their lives to their hard work. Now they have become the foundation of Heath in a flash. This taste is really...

Heath felt that although he had not found the treasure, this trip was not a loss at all!

"Did you think of any clue?" In the carriage, Magra's inquiry interrupted Heath's thoughts.

Heathra's thoughts running away.

He shook his head: "I'm just thinking about some magical issues."

After a pause, he said with some boredom: "And I have already answered you. I am not going to explore this ruin for the time being. You should be able to understand what it means to this end, right?"

Magra still didn't give up. He had come to Heath to discuss the follow-up content of the ruins more than once these days. Even though Heath had clearly stated that he had withdrawn or even handed him the clue manuscript, he was still pestered.

The old god Magra smiled and said, "Haha, wizard, why give up on a little bit of difficulties? I have encountered many similar difficulties over the years, but in the end I have not been able to overcome them one by one and found out the information about the ruins. If there is really a curse, then should I have died long ago? Man conquers nature, and we will definitely gain if we persist!"

What was wrong with me when I fell to the ground? I was looking for some ruins!

Heath was speechless.

He said: "Work hard is of course important, but direction is also important. Even if you do your best to sail against the current, what if the river is no longer a waterfall? Besides, even if you find that ruin..."

After a pause, he said bluntly: "I told you too that there is nothing you want to find in it."

Magra still said, "What if?"

Good guy...

Still obsessed with it, are you?

Heath is not talking.

Magra turned his head and looked out the car window, looking at the withered trunk. After the winter, the buds that started were vaguely seen on the dead trees.

He looked at the tender bud without blinking, and suddenly said, "Just as you and I said, there are too many unsolved mysteries in this world. Even if a wizard is not everything, why is it impossible for a waterfall to go upstream? Did you say no?"

Somehow, Heath felt his expression seemed...

Somewhat crazy...
