From Hogwarts to Strixhaven

A man.

A man with broken hands.

At this time, he was lying on the ground with a confused mind, and his mouth kept making low sighs of pain.

A large area of ​​blood wet his sleeves, and the land beneath him turned brown.

Even though the man in a blue-purple mage robe held the cross section of his forearm tightly, blood was still pouring out.

Ivy was not sure whether he should help him, but in fact he had just arrived here.

This is a cliff on the side of the road, with low shrubs and towering trees growing on both sides of the road, and the purple teleportation array on the stone walls is gradually becoming dim.

There is only one thing Avi can be sure of, and this is definitely Jianwan.

The Tifflin warlock in Gongmo Tavern is named Nosil, which probably means wandering or traveler. The tuning fork he sold to Aivi was a magic prop used to locate the lower plane of Feiren.

Relying on frequency resonance, Ive can make precise plans for the landing point of the gate of another world or the spell transmitted by another world. So a minute ago, he had just returned from the first level of the Nine Hell, Aphurus.

What greeted him was not the sunshine in Jianwan, but a young broken-armed mage lying on the ground with blood.

And he looked like he would fall into a coma due to excessive blood loss.

Ivey just thought about this, and the painful humming of the broken-armed young mage completely disappeared. The hand holding the forearm was also weakly released, and only the blood gushed out faster.

"Healing quickly." Avi gently recited the wizard's healing spell, looking at the untidy section of the wound on the mage's arm, gradually healing into a scar of Mama Lailai.

There is both good news and bad news.

The good news is that the wizard's magic was not completely forbidden by Faren's magic goddess.

The bad news is that wizard's magic also requires the consumption of spell positions here, and the spell effect will change according to the consumed spell position.

The previous healing spell just used a first-ring spell position, so it can only stop bleeding and heal wounds, and cannot provide scar removal and limb regeneration.

However, even at Hogwarts, it is very difficult to get the broken arm to grow again. Otherwise, Professor Silvanus Celticborne would not have to be with a bunch of wooden prosthetics.

Avi took back his divergent thoughts and carefully checked the wizard who was still in a coma. Although the wound healed, the blood he lost was not replenished and he would not wake up for a while.

The man's robe looks very luxurious and should be a guy of great status, but judging from the magical aura on him, it is no different from a novice who has just learned how to release a spell.

He had no magic equipment on his body, and his poverty was almost engraved on his face.

"The direction of these blood vessels is so strange..."

Some dark blue lines cling to the young mage's neck, which is very similar to the color of the venous blood vessels under the skin, but the trend is very strange, completely unlike the result of natural growth.

Ivey used the mitral staff to lift the man's collar, and a dim mark was printed on the skin under the man's clothing.

It is a circle with many arcs representing flames or magic.

Ive recognized this pattern, which was the Magic Ball of Destruction.

The young mage carrying the magic ball of destruction is Gale from Deep Water City, the former voter and old lover of the Magic Goddess, the victim of the Heart Flayer, and the walking super bomb man.

"Ah... it's really amazing." Avi couldn't help but smile, "There should be a crashed snail shell ship nearby. It seems that the protagonists have just escaped from the crash..."

Avi looked at Gale, who was still unconscious on the ground, and his broken arm: "But who cut off the hand of the Great Master of Deep Water City? Chicken girl? Or Asdelen ? Although their camp is more evil, they should not have conflicts with Gail, who has no grudges or grudges? What's more, they all share the same sympathy and are trapped in the mind of Naseriel's inner-fighting tadpoles..."

"Niseriel..." Avi smiled and whispered the name of the Lost Magic Empire, "The crown above the head of the master's mind and the Naiseriel stone in the hands of the three gods of death, will be my biggest goal. That's What both the Devil and the Three Gods of Death want is absolutely of great research value…”

But Avi will never forget the gods on the Faren Continent. Therefore, disguise is necessary. He needs to become the winner in the competition between multiple forces, both open and dark, so he must maintain absolute patience and restraint. Organic planning.

Although Avi failed to complete the third chapter of the game due to the optimization of the scum before traveling through time, most of the forces involved in this drama have already appeared in the first two chapters of the game. The three gods of Death use Kalsa. The plan of Shrine's Crown to manipulate the master's brain was also revealed by Gotash at the coronation ceremony of Feilong Pass.

So compared to the confusing protagonist group, Avi undoubtedly has a great advantage. As a legendary spellcaster hidden in the dark, Avi might be able to get started and get involved in the gods and devils in this matter. There are also forces fighting each other.

Therefore, he hid all the magic equipment on his body, leaving only the simple Lute Qin behind him, a light cloth armor, and a beast-biting sword hanging around his waist.

He will act as a [Barrior], seeking new inspiration to compose a great work, while collecting books, letters, and legends scattered throughout Jianwan.

And Gale, who was missing a hand, would be the best proof for him to join the protagonist group.

Ivy stretched and turned around in a showy way. This was the first time he appeared in front of the world as a non-wizard or mage. He must make a shocking debut for the old lover of the goddess of magic, so that the identity of the [bard] would be deeply rooted in people's hearts.

Just as Ivy was thinking about what kind of music to use to announce his debut, Gale, whose wound had healed, suddenly made a painful sound.

Ivy leaned over to check, and the black and purple blood vessels appeared under his skin, making Gale's already pale face even uglier. A large amount of sticky and smelly liquid gushed out of his mouth, and Gale, who was missing a hand, twitched unconsciously.

Just as Ivy was thinking about what state Gale was in and what kind of spell to use to counter this effect.

The unlucky mage died.

"It seems to be some kind of severe toxin?" Ivy thought with a headache, because he could rely on entering the state of [Earth Element Invocation] to be immune to toxins and acid damage, so he never considered the possibility of dying from poisoning. This resulted in him not being able to find a suitable way to detoxify Gale in a short time when the poison in his body took effect.

"Maybe I should use the Philosopher's Stone on him..." Ivy scratched his chin, "Complete recovery will definitely work... Forget it, it doesn't matter if I use the Philosopher's Stone to revive him... Anyway, it's not me who died..."

Before Ivy reached into his arms to take out the Philosopher's Stone, a projection flashing with lavender light appeared out of thin air. The projection wore the same clothes and hairstyle as Gale who was lying on the ground, and perhaps spoke the same accent.

"Hello!" The projection greeted Ivy warmly with a ghostly voice, "I am a magic projection, belonging to the genius wizard Gail Dekalios of Waterdeep! If you see this projection, it means that I died earlier than expected!"

"Huh?" Ivy was quite surprised. This was a triggered projection magic, and Ivy's arcane vision didn't notice it at all. He began to believe that Gail was a genius wizard.

"I'm sorry I can't tell you the specific reason, but please help me revive as soon as possible when it's convenient. This is very important!" The projection Gail just stood beside his corpse and gave a speech, not caring at all about the impact this picture had on Ivy. Even a ruthless person like him who kicked Voldemort's head like a ball, he never thought of making a magic projection triggered after death to talk to others.

"You can rest assured that my purpose is not just to save myself. I must complete the resurrection within two days, and this is related to many lives, even yours!" The projection of Gale continued, "Have I expressed it clearly enough?"

"Then the 'unexplainable reason' refers to the tattoo on your chest?" Ivy pointed to Gale's open-chested corpse.

"Did you see it? Did you guess it? Okay..." Gale's projection tried to interact with the collar of the main body, but the fingers made of magic could not touch the real object.

"I tried to save your life. You lost a hand and fainted on the ground covered in blood." Ivy explained, "But you were also poisoned by something I didn't expect. It was this poison that caused your death."

"Then you are really a kind person." Gale's projection changed the subject, "So you must be willing to help me revive? I should have a valuable and rare thing on me that can help, but it is protected by multiple security protocols, and what we have to do now is to quickly and correctly cancel these protocols and obtain the scroll of complete resurrection inside."

"Complete resurrection scroll?" Ivy repeated it in surprise. This was a plot he had never experienced during the game, otherwise he would have been impressed. Complete resurrection is a nine-ring spell that only exists on the priest and druid spell tables, and is at the same level as the nine-ring spell prayer that Ivy uses the most. If you want to make this spell into a scroll, you need to spend a lot of energy and time, and a wizard like Gale must pay money to buy it.

"That's right." Gale's projection raised a finger, "First, you need to take off the small bag on my chest..."

Ivy saw the small bag on Gale's body and picked it up. There were three yellow, purple and red silk threads wrapped around it, which looked like a time bomb.

"I got it, and then what?" Ivy turned the small bag in his hand twice and scanned all the details into his mind.

"...Be careful!" Gale's projection looked frightened, "Can't you wait until I finish everything before taking action? If you make a mistake, thousands of people will accompany you to heaven!"

"Don't worry, I will do it one step at a time." Ivy smiled and comforted.

"Okay..." Gale's projection couldn't touch the entity, so he had to compromise, "Untie the purple stitches in a counterclockwise direction, and don't touch other threads!"

Ivy gently pulled the purple thread according to the instructions of Gale's projection. After a burst of purple smoke, the package opened, revealing the wooden flute and paper inside.

"You need to play the notes with this flute. The details are on that piece of paper..." Gale's projection continued, "You look like a bard, so you must be able to correctly identify the most basic scales, right?"

"It's hard to say. I usually play according to my intuition." Ivy made a little joke, holding the wooden flute with a little magical power in his hand, and unfolding the page in the package with his other hand.

There were four capital letters written on the four corners of the parchment.

"The answer is 'dead'?" Ivy chuckled, "Mr. Dekalios, I quite like your 'dead' humor."

"In clockwise order... Well, you have guessed it, it is 'dead'." Gale's projection also smiled, "The performance will summon a magma bat..."

Generally speaking, there are only seven notes in an octave scale. Although the seven letters from A to G are used, the familiar "do" is represented by the capital letter C.

Therefore, Gale's riddle actually sounds like "no, mi, la, no".

When Ivy finished playing, a burst of magma exploded not far away, and a not very large red elemental creature spread its wings and flew into the air. Just as Gale's projection said, a magma bat.

Speaking in a hoarse accent, the magma bat asked a question hoarsely.

Ivy nodded and looked at Gale's projection: "It asked what its name is?"

"K'hs... Wait, can you understand the language of the Fire Tribe?" The projection that had just started stopped, "This language is not easy to learn..."

"I'm a bard, so I know a little bit of everything."

"I don't think all bards know the language of the Fire Tribe..." Gale's projection complained while answering the question of the magma bat.

Just as Gale's projection said, not all bards know the language of the Fire Tribe. Ivy can understand the language of elemental creatures because of his professional characteristic of [Splendid Warlock] - [Original Speaker].

This feature allows him to understand elemental creatures who speak four different dialects of the original language, including the magma bats who speak the fire language.

The magma bat, who got the correct answer, sprayed a mouthful of hot lava on the parchment with "dead" written on it, successfully turning it into a scroll of complete resurrection.

The projection of Gail, who saw this scene, was obviously relieved: "You got the scroll! As long as you use it on me, my hands that are cold due to death will soon be filled with the warmth of life again, and I will shake hands and thank you with infinite gratitude!"

"Now you only have one hand left, remember?" Ivy shook the magic scroll in his hand.

"Whatever! Resurrect me as soon as possible, okay?" Gail's projection shook his head and turned into a burst of light and dissipated in the air.

Ivy unfolded the scroll of complete resurrection, admired its completely different principle from arcane spellcasting, and then stuffed it into the Destruction Grimoire.

"It's such a waste to use a nine-ring spell to revive someone who just died less than an hour ago." Ivy took out the Hufflepuff gold cup, "Good steel should be used on the blade!"
