Chapter 96 The White Wizard Association's Prohibitions and Regulations!
Next, Kalai reached out and summoned back all the mithril puppets that had been released to intercept the Skaven snakemen and landed on the surrounding ground.
So all the mithril puppets bounced back, climbed up the legs of the Kalai wizard's robe to the chest area, and crawled inside the robe, where they remained motionless.
"Luckily, I usually study magic puppetry, otherwise I would probably have died here when these Skaven snakemen attacked for the first time."
"I can't believe it," Kalai said, still shaken.
Now, seeing these silver-white mithril puppets climbing up Kalai's wizard robes, Wayne's eyes lit up with interest.
Actually, they had become interested in the mithril dolls when they were initially blocked from entering the Redstone Outpost by the gate. When Kalai threw one over, climbed onto the gate, and opened it, Kalai realized that the mithril dolls were the first to be used.
Looking at these dolls, Wayne had a sudden thought and tried to ask.
"Mr. Kalai, may I take a look at these mithril dolls?"
"What, could it be that the Wayne brothers are interested in these dolls?"
Seeing the look in Wayne's eyes, Kalay asked with a smile.
Next, with a flick of his wrist, he took out a mithril doll from inside his wizard's robe and handed it to Wayne.
Wayne took it, examined it closely. It was entirely silver-white, with magical pathways branded on its surface.
The spiritual energy inside has probably been drained, so it has reverted to being a dead object.
The four limbs are made of metal, with slightly larger spheres at the ends.
It's just a regular human-shaped doll, like a building block toy.
"If you're interested, I can give you some; they're all made using the most basic magic puppetry techniques."
"Kala said."
"Brother Wayne, I also recommend that you try to learn some witchcraft skills in addition to your regular witchcraft studies."
"As the saying goes, having more skills is never a burden. Sometimes, having an extra skill might just save your life in a critical moment!"
He is now deeply moved.
Just before Wayne came to help, it was thanks to these mithril puppets that the Skaven snakemen were entangled and delayed for a while.
This allows him to catch his breath and prepare to fight back.
"Really? That would be wonderful, thank you." Wayne's eyes lit up when he heard that Carly had offered to give him some.
After witnessing the agile movements of these mithril puppets, a future plan emerged in Wayne's mind.
Therefore, when Wayne heard that Carly was willing to give it to him, he was not the kind of person who was shy or couldn't bring himself to do it.
Now that the other party has taken the initiative to offer it, it would be impolite to refuse, so I will gladly accept it.
"Hey! What are you saying? Why are you being so polite with me? You've saved me more than once already. It's just some basic spirit dolls, you could have had them all!"
Kalai said very generously.
"No need, one is enough for me."
Wayne said that he didn't want to finish it all at once.
"Alright then, just remember that if you want to use these puppets, you just need to input a wisp of your spiritual power into them, and they will perform some simple actions according to your commands."
"However, of course, mithril dolls have time limits, and if a certain amount of time and distance is exceeded, the dolls will lose their effectiveness. After all, these magic dolls are just the most basic magic dolls, and cannot compare to the formal dolls made by professional magic doll wizards."
"Kala reminded me," Kalai reminded him.
After carefully putting the mithril doll back into the pocket of his wizard's robe.
Next, Wayne and Kale walked towards the redstone outpost ahead.
Back inside the outpost, the two men went through the buildings, opening each door and investigating.
Live to see people, die to see corpses.
We can't just let those knights and guards disappear without a trace.
Inside the outpost, they opened each room door to check, and finally, in a warehouse on the second floor, the strong smell of blood hit them as soon as the door was opened.
Inside the warehouse, numerous corpses of knights and guards were piled up in a corner.
Furthermore, their expressions before death remained unchanged, just as they had when they were guarding and patrolling; there was little change, only their bodies were somewhat cold.
"It seems they were all killed instantly, so their expressions didn't even change," Kale said in a deep voice, frowning slightly.
Because only when someone is suddenly attacked and killed instantly will they show no expression at all.
Otherwise, they would definitely show expressions of anger, fear, or anxiety, but right now everyone's expressions are calm and normal.
Thinking of those Skaven snake people, they had a unique ability when they moved: they could move silently without making a sound.
It's likely that the Skaven snakemen took advantage of the poor lighting at night to sneak into the outpost and silently approach the knights and guards.
Then, kill them here, slit their throats.
Now that they had confirmed that all the knights and guards were dead, Wayne and Carly closed the gates of the outpost.
Then, they immediately retraced their steps and returned to the Black Forest patrol's camp.
On the way back, Kale couldn't help but show a worried look in his eyes.
"What kind of audacity do these Skaven serpent-men possess to dare attack the Black Forest City outpost in broad daylight and kill all the guards stationed there? Aren't they afraid of retaliation from the White Wizarding Association?! Their actions are tantamount to declaring war on the Wizarding Academy!"
"What exactly is going on with these Skaven snake people?" Wayne asked, somewhat puzzled, seeing Kale's worried expression beside him.
I just heard him say that these Skaven snake people seem to have some kind of agreement with the White Wizard Association.
"Hundreds of years ago, the Skaven serpent people, a race near the Black Forest, frequently attacked and plundered human villages, massacring humans and leaving behind piles of bones and corpses. So, the wizards sent an army to fight the Skaven serpent people and almost wiped them out at one point."
"Later, he became the president of the White Wizard Association. It was pitiful that their race was reduced to only a few hundred old, weak, sick, and disabled people. Considering that they were also creatures of the continent, he couldn't bear to exterminate them. So he signed an agreement with them, stipulating that the Skaven Snake People could only live underground and could never return to the surface area. As for any behavior that attacked humans, it was naturally even more forbidden."
"I never imagined they would disregard the original agreement and reappear on the ground, even murdering the guards stationed at the wizarding academy's outpost. This... this audacious behavior... have they gone mad? Or do they have some ulterior motive...?"
"Kalai said with a worried expression.
Soon, half an hour later, he returned to the camp and reported the situation to Vice Captain Cohen.
Scarface Cohen sat bolt upright in his chair, his face filled with disbelief. "What? You...you mean it?" he asked.
"Yes, Captain Cohen, I saw it with my own eyes. All the knight guards stationed at Redstone Outpost have been killed by the Skaven Serpentmen. Not a single one was left alive, and they even clashed with us!" Kale replied.
