Chapter 470: City Scroll
Chapter 470: City Return Scroll
Inside the second-floor round tower.
While there was a huge uproar outside, Ivan was surprisingly calm inside, as if the incident was not caused by him.
"You have a really big heart. So many people say that you are arrogant, fanciful and so on, but you are still sitting here peacefully." Seeing his calm face, Angus, who came to visit, sighed.
"The words have been spoken. It's too late to regret now," Ivan said.
"He is not being careless, but being confident." said Sackri, who came with Angus. He is a great enchanter of the Chinanandu branch.
Previously, everyone arrived here together on the Cloud Shuttle.
Hearing what the two said, Ivan just smiled and didn't answer.
"Ivan, great scholar, I believe you have guessed our purpose. Give us a chance?" The two men looked at each other, and finally Angus spoke.
"Have you thought it through? This is not only difficult, but also very dangerous."
"Of course, you are Ewen Marichatton!"
"If other third-level wizards dared to come forward and say they wanted to study the teleportation array, we would definitely sneer at them. But you are different. We are willing to follow you to explore the deeper mysteries of space and uncover this cage that has not been shaken for hundreds of years."
"Well, welcome to both wizards."
Seeing how sincere the two were, Ivan had no reason to turn them away.
Time flies, and several days have passed. The news is still spreading, and there are many different opinions. From time to time, wizards personally visit and express their willingness to wait for instructions and help with the research of the teleportation array.
Ivan selectively included some people, including Master Nelson, whom he had visited before.
As for the senior wizards, they are now busy with the things obtained from the Star Gate. Ivan is not in a hurry to look for them. As the saying goes, let the bullet fly for a while.
However, he was summoned first.
……
In the Empty Valley, there is only one nine-story wizard tower.
This nine-story wizard tower is the most important and honorable place in the Empty Valley. Usually, only arcane wizards come here to conduct some very high-end and dangerous secret experiments.
On this day, Ivan was fortunate enough to be brought inside and to a room on the ninth floor.
"Mr. Marichadon, please come in. Someone is waiting for you."
"Okay, thank you."
Ivan nodded to the waiter who was leading the way, pushed open the door in front of him and walked in. His first impression of the room was that it was ordinary.
As soon as he entered the small room, the door at the back closed automatically.
He couldn't care about these things because there were people in the room, there were four arcane wizards, including Hotes who had not been seen for a few days, and these people were actually waiting for him here.
"Greetings to you, President Doradoli."
"Greetings to you—"
"Okay, you don't have to follow these etiquettes in front of us. We didn't ask you to come here to hear these things."
Ivan hurriedly stepped forward to salute, but just as he opened his mouth to say a few words of greeting, President Doradoli waved his hand to stop him.
During the days when the Star Gate was activated, they had already met each other and were no longer strangers.
"Ivan, it's rare for you to be so flamboyant and magnanimous. You've almost made the Kongliu Valley boil over this. This is really impressive." President Hati said with a smile.
I couldn't tell whether his words were praise or criticism, but he looked very happy anyway.
"Let me guess, you let the news spread so widely, causing mixed reviews, are you trying to select like-minded wizards? Let me tell you, this wizard is also very interested in your plan, how about--" The next person to speak was Humo Thurlum, also a member of the Space School, he often took turns with President Doradoli to sit in the Empty Valley.
Among the four arcane wizards present, Ivan was the most unfamiliar with the Humo wizard. Hearing his joke, he couldn't help but think more about it and was preparing to answer.
"Alright, alright, you guys can talk later, let's get to the point."
Doradoli didn't want to listen to their idle chatter, so he interrupted them again.
Seeing this, the other three could only let the chairman do what he wanted. They knew in their hearts that Doradoli was the most anxious person and had been thinking about solving the problem of the teleportation array.
"Tell me about your real goal. Don't tell me what's being said outside. Your plan is to solve the problem of the teleportation array in one fell swoop. I think you're not that conceited based on your personality."
"President, please understand that my plan only targets part of the problem, rather than directly solving the problem of the teleportation array."
Hearing President Doradoli's question, Ivan did not hide it. He never had such big ambitions from the beginning to the end, and he always only focused on part of the problem.
Just as many people believe, the teleportation array is a millennium plan of the Space School. How can a third-level wizard solve it?
He knew he had no such credentials, so he certainly wouldn't go down a dead end.
"Then which part are you aiming at?" Doradoli asked.
"Cough, cough - cough, cough." Hotes suddenly started coughing and only stopped after being glared at by others.
"Wizard Hotes, do you think I would covet other people's ideas and plans? This is probably not the first day you've met me, Doradoli." Doradoli glared at him unhappily.
"Give me back Humo Selum. Doradoli and I have been guarding the Kongliu Valley for many years, just hoping to solve the problem of the teleportation array as soon as possible. We are eager for someone to step forward and take on the responsibility. How can we throw the baby out with the bathwater?" Humo said immediately.
"Of course not, my throat just felt a little itchy just now." Hotes smiled awkwardly.
He actually didn't doubt anything, he just wanted the two of them to express their stance in public to prevent someone from being tempted and taking the lead in Ivan's research, which would go against the original intention of the plan.
"Ivan, please continue. We asked you to come here because we want to give you some support. Don't forget that this is the Empty Flow Valley. There are many wizards who have studied teleportation arrays before you."
President Hatti spoke up to smooth things over.
Hearing this, Ivan's heart moved.
He suddenly realized that coming to the Nine-story Wizard Tower was probably not a random act. In other words, there must be something in this tower that can help him.
"President, please understand. What I'm aiming for is actually a directional teleportation, a special directional teleportation. To make it easier to understand its meaning, I also gave it a concise name - the City Return Scroll.
A return scroll, as the name suggests, is a scroll that returns to the city from the wild.
This can be extended to mean returning to a pre-set location from the outside along a pre-laid spatial path. A return scroll does not necessarily have to be in the form of a scroll—"
Ivan himself had no right to doubt any arcane wizard, and immediately began to explain his goals and plans.
Previously, when he saw the traction lighthouse and learned about its strong traction and directionality, a similar idea flashed through his mind, and he also thought of some things in a game in his previous life.
Of course, one is a false thing in the illusion, and the other is a real thing created according to the rules of space.
The scroll of return to town that he planned must be quite different from the one in the game.
The reason why we don't directly choose the teleportation array is due to various factors. The teleportation array has little meaning if the transmission distance is short, but the return scroll has various adjustments.
In his estimation, the research on the scroll of return to the city will definitely produce some results in the end, regardless of the size.
Secondly, compared to the teleportation array that had been highly anticipated for many years, the concept of the new thing was different and it was easier for people to be satisfied with it. In a way, he could be said to have taken a shortcut.
