"Hmm." Antaike joked after confirming Fernando's question, "You would actually doubt that a legendary lord would surrender to the church? What benefits can this bring? Ordinary archmages can be safe and obtain materials provided by the church.
What can a legendary magician get? When the external troubles are lifted, he will definitely be the first batch of hidden dangers to be eliminated."
Such a smooth and sharp explanation does not seem to be something that a timid guy like Antaike could organize temporarily. He probably remembered it when he listened to the discussion between the "King of Nightmares" and Stannis... Fernando laughed at Antaike in his heart.
After that, he straightened his face: "What exactly are you studying in Kufre City?"
"Isn't it the mystery of faith and the shaping of gods." Antaike looked calm.
Fernando's bright red eyes stared at him so hard that he gradually became unable to maintain a calm attitude. He shrank his shoulders and said, "What are you suspecting?"
"I don't know, but I'm sure this is definitely not the answer, at least not the most fundamental answer." Fernando said solemnly.
Antaike was visibly relieved and looked at Fernando sincerely: "At least this is the answer."
"I understand, I won't ask anymore. Letting a coward bear more pressure than he needs will make him so scared that he can't sleep." Fernando heard the implication of Antaike's words. If he continues to ask, his own safety may not be guaranteed.
.
Antaike showed no mocking anger and patted Fernando on the shoulder with a smile: "The more scared I am, the more I can sleep."
There was a greasy feeling on his fingers, and he immediately retracted it like an electric shock. His face turned red again. Now Fernando is still "Landuo"!
Fernando curled his lips and felt that his body had recovered, so he said: "I'd better leave here as soon as possible. The rotten secrets buried underground made me feel sick to my stomach, and a layer of pimples appeared on my skin."
In short, the secret made him feel dangerous.
"I brought Biddy and Loiva here before. Just outside the city." Antaike was very worried that Frando's identity would be seen through by Fran, and he would definitely be "implicated", so when Fernando was unconscious, he went to
Advise him to leave quickly.
Fernando glanced at Antaike in surprise: "It's rare that you can prepare in advance."
"Hey." Antaike enjoyed Fernando's "praise".
After exchanging pleasantries with Antaike and agreeing to meet in the future, Fernando walked to the door and opened the door with the brass handle.
At this time, a man in his thirties happened to walk outside the door. His facial features were ordinary and he would definitely be "drowned" if thrown into the sea of people.
He looked Fernando up and down, and said in a low voice: "Although you are very perverted, you have better premonitions and analytical skills than others, which is very good."
"You think I'll be happy if you 'praise' me like this? You're a guy who can't tell the difference between dreams and reality." Fernando said as always.
This man is Stannis, the future "King of Nightmares" whom Antaike described to Fernando and whose portrait he saw.
"Words can't bring you any benefits, but spells can." Stannis said coldly, "I heard from Antaike that you have different views on illusions and dreams. I hope it's not too crude, otherwise it will be a waste of my time."
Fernando chuckled: "I hope you won't waste my time."
The two of them sat in the "ward" with Antaike and exchanged their views on illusions and dreams in detail. Although it did not involve detailed magic symbols, spell structures, etc., their thoughts were still stimulated and they each benefited a lot.
After Fernando left for a while, Fran, who was arrested by her teacher as a "coolie", rushed over. There was no love between her and Fernando, but she thought that what happened to him was all caused by the wrong information she gave him.
It is inevitable that I feel a little guilty and have a more compensatory mentality.
"What? She has returned to Holm?" Fran looked at Antaike in shock. The only scene in her mind was the opening and closing of his mouth.
She actually didn't say goodbye to herself? Was the joy and happiness during this period not even worth saying goodbye?
Thinking of this, thinking of Fernando who ignored her charm and walked away, Fran felt quite sad.
Suddenly, Stannis next to him said calmly: "Are you also interested in people with female bodies and male souls? Antaike is not bad. His soul is timid than that of a lady. If he transforms his body, it will meet your requirements."
"What do you mean?" Fran was stunned for a moment, and then all the doubts about getting along with Fernando arose. She looked sharply at Antaike - after all, Fernando is not a professional lady, so it's okay for a short time, and they get along often.
Next, there are often details that confuse Fran.
Antaike was so frightened that he took a few steps back: "This. This has nothing to do with me. It's Fernando who is perverted and likes to become a lady."
He didn't dare lie in front of Fran.
Fran's face was gloomy, her teeth chattering, and she didn't speak for a long time. When Antaike was frightened and wanted to move to Stannis, she waved her arms violently: "When we meet next time, I will let him become
Really feminine!”
…………
Ten years later, in late spring, the grass was growing outside the city of Rentat and the orioles were flying.
Fernando, still wearing his favorite bright red magic robe, looked at the noble knights and clergymen in Rentat City walking through the streets and alleys without seeing anything, and soon arrived at the "Grilled Fish Hotel".
"Old Green, you're not dead yet!" he shouted as soon as he entered the door.
Old Green squinted one eye and looked at him: "You are dead, but I am not dead yet. Today's letter."
He threw a thick stack of letters to Fernando.
Although the church initially stabilized the situation ten years ago by letting Hoffenberg, the Sword of Truth, return and sending two saints over, as time went by, the church fell into anxiety with the coalition forces on the Alto-Tria front.
, repeated attacks failed. As the legendary sea monsters in the endless ocean frequently attacked, the number of terrifying legends in the church was divided and diluted. The nobles in the Great Holm area gradually had strange thoughts and were no longer working so hard.
This situation reached its peak two years ago after the "Death Lord" returned to his peak and killed the cardinal who was later reinforced. Even if they met someone wearing a magic robe on the road, the nobles would turn a blind eye as long as they were not acting together with the clergy.
Turning a blind eye, more and more of them are secretly cooperating with magicians, brewing and waiting, hoping that one day the strength of the church here will be suppressed, forming a tripartite confrontation between nobles and magicians, with the church being the weakest but the backing
The strongest situation.
Fernando seemed to have an invisible hand in front of him, grabbing the thick letter. After opening it, he saw Hathaway's more graceful handwriting. It was densely packed with questions about mathematics and physics, and
These problems are so complex that even Fernando's talent in mathematics is dizzying, and he has the illusion that his mathematical abilities are no longer as good as Hathaway's.
In ten years, perhaps no one can make rapid progress in magic, but in the field of mathematics and physics, as long as you have outstanding talent, ten years is enough to become a master of mathematics and physics!
"This little girl's talent in the field of mathematics and physics is not too bad." Fernando said with emotion in his iconic tone.
Green sneered: "This is the thirty-ninth time you have expressed similar sentiments. Is it so difficult to directly admit that her talent in mathematics and physics is better than yours?"
Fernando did not hear this sentence because he had already done it and fell into the world of mathematics.
"Her insights into fluxes, no, calculus, were so profound... She made a decisive contribution..." Fernando became more and more frightened as he watched.
In the past ten years, he has often corresponded with Hathaway to guide her in her mathematical knowledge, but when it comes to the most cutting-edge and difficult flow numbers, Hathaway only asks some basic definition questions - flow numbers have been renamed calculus by Douglas.
, as a result, in today’s letter, the calculus knowledge given by Hathaway has exceeded his ability, and he must learn it first!
"When did she know calculus?"
Fernando thought in amazement, and quickly recalled what Douglas once said - "A child thought that calculus sounded better than fluxes, and that this system could be built with her considerable contribution, so I decided to do it as she thought.
Just name it."
At the time, he thought Douglas was referring to Erica who came here often. Now that he thought about it, it was probably Hathaway. While she was corresponding with him, she was also writing letters to exchange mathematical knowledge with Douglas!
When did her mathematical ability reach the level where she could co-create calculus with Douglas... Fernando sighed, feeling that he was lagging behind.
"Old guy, Hathaway is still communicating with Douglas?" Fernando raised his head and asked.
Old Green wiped the wooden wine glass as before, and said calmly: "Of course, your mathematical ability is far worse than Douglas. If Douglas hadn't been in Allinge and rarely came over, she wouldn't ask you for advice."
He doesn't mind hitting Fernando at all.
"At least the completion of calculus is many years faster than imagined. This will be the most dazzling achievement in the history of magic!" Fernando was not bitter, but said to himself quite excitedly.
His open-mindedness made Old Green stunned for a moment, and then he said: "The most dazzling achievement? Hey, who could have imagined that one of them is a little girl who can't do magic."
He has an elder-like love for Hathaway. In his eyes, Hathaway is still a little girl even after ten years.
"It seems that I have to treat her as an equal partner." Fernando put away the letter and prepared to go back and study it carefully.
Old Green looked around and saw that no one else was there, so he lowered his voice and said, "Are you going to take action tonight?"
Fernando nodded solemnly and said a little uncomfortably: "You, you have to be careful."
The "Death Lord", who has regained his strength, believes that time is tight and must occupy a large city with basic layout as soon as possible, so that he can construct the mysterious lock that he has been secretly researching for decades in the shortest possible time, which can consume the "divine descending technique"
The Mystery Lock - Ten years have passed, no one knows how far the Pope's strength has reached, and how long it will take for him to use the divine descending technique, so he can only prepare early.
"Are you sure?" Old Green asked with concern.
Fernando nodded slightly, yes, because the nobles will be on our side!
