Lord of the Oasis Chapter 534: .The weirdness in Lionheart City
Besture did not answer immediately after hearing Kant's question.
He respectfully said to Kant:
"Sir, please allow me to learn more about the information."
Kant nodded, his voice a little serious:
"Yes!"
Kant knew that Bestuer attached great importance to information and intelligence.
Although Kant himself has guessed and understood the information about these nobles just now, he is not specialized in researching and analyzing intelligence. In this respect, he is slightly different from Bestur.
Kant asked Bestour for exactly this reason.
Bestul came to the Swadian royal knight who first reported the situation.
He asked the Swadian royal knight with a serious expression:
"Your Excellency, may I ask you to find the sleeping nobles, servants, warriors, knights, great knights, etc. in the aristocratic mansion. Where are they?"
The Swadian Royal Knight, after thinking for a while, said:
"Lord Bestur, the nobleman, was found in his bedroom, and the squires, warriors, knights, high knights, etc., were also found in their resting places."
"In fact, we were all taken aback at first, thinking they were sleeping in bed."
Bestuer nodded and added:
"Then, did you find any traces of battle in the noble mansion?"
The Swadian Royal Knight replied without thinking this time:
"No, we did not find any traces of combat."
Bestur nodded:
"Okay, knight! Thanks for your answer, which made me confirm some of my guesses."
Bestur came to the Ainfath Empire Mage who answered Kant's question again, and asked him with a serious look:
"Dear mage, I want to ask, can the archmage fly?"
Bestur comes from Calradia, which is not the same as Pendor, where the mages of the Ainfath Empire came from.
The power system of mages is rarely seen in Calradia.
Einfuss Empire Mage mage said after a while:
"This score faction, if it is an evocation or transformation archmage, they can fly. The archmage of the other factions do not have the ability to fly."
Bestul nodded clearly and continued to ask:
"Then, the archmage you mentioned who released the mental imprisoning spell in the entire aristocratic mansion, can he fly?"
The Imperial Mage of Ainfuss said hesitantly:
"Mental confinement is not an exclusive spell of a certain faction. In fact, mages with strong spiritual power can use it."
"However, since that archmage can develop new spells of this type specifically, he is probably an archmage of the illusion department. If he did not focus on the evocation system or the transformation department at the same time, he should not can fly."
Bestuer directly concluded:
"That means it might not be able to fly?"
The Imperial Mage of Ainfath nodded:
"It can indeed be said that the world of magic is difficult and obscure. It is not easy to become an archmage in any faction. Even if it is achieved, it should continue to be studied in depth. Instead of wasting time on other factions on."
"Therefore, the Archmage of the Illusion Department, he may specialize in the Department of Illusions is very likely."
Bestur understands:
"It seems unlikely that the archmage flew out of the closed noble mansion."
He continued to ask:
"So, can the Archmage cast a spell and then trigger it after a certain time?"
"Well, what I mean specifically is, is it possible that after the archmage casts mental imprisonment on others, he will let those who have been imprisoned by him perform normal activities for a period of time before falling into a deep sleep."
The Imperial Mage of Ainfath nodded:
"Lord Bestur, the situation you mentioned belongs to super magic skills - spell delay. People who can become archmage generally master some super magic skills more or less."
"Therefore, the situation you mentioned is entirely possible."
Bestur pondered for a while, and continued to ask the Imperial Mage of Ainfus:
"One last question!"
"What is the strength of the archmage? Can he deal with 300 soldiers and 30 great knights in this noble mansion at the same time?"
The Imperial Mage of Ainfuss took a long time to think about it this time:
"If it's an archmage of the summoning or evocation system, it is somewhat possible. However, the illusion system, which favors support and control, is difficult to deal with so many people at the same time, especially 30 great knights. The will is stronger, and the resistance to illusion spells is stronger."
Bestur nodded:
"Ok, thank you for your answer, respected mage!"
Bestul asked for some specific details to verify his conjecture, and then came to Kant.
"My lord, I think we can lead the army forward!"
Kant listened to Bestur's questions and answers about Swadia Royal Knights and Enfass Empire Mage, and wanted to understand Bestur's meaning a little. Regarding the observation of details, he is indeed not as good as Bestur.
However, Bestour is completely loyal to him, as long as he can control Bestour and let him exert his talents.
Like now.
"Tell me about your analysis!"
Although Kant made the same conjecture in his heart, he still needs to listen to Bestour's opinion, perhaps Bestour's consideration is more detailed than him.
“My lord, based on the known clues, I judge that the people in this noble mansion were all voluntarily mentally imprisoned by the archmage. Perhaps the nobleman even sent the archmage out of the mansion, and then He ordered the soldiers to close the door before returning to the bedroom and fell into a deep sleep."
Kant also had this idea, otherwise even if an archmage has the ability to imprison so many people, but those people are not wood, as long as they resist together, the archmage may not even think about successfully imprisoning one person.
Only people in the noble mansion cooperate actively, and this situation will occur.
"The analysis makes sense, but it's not a basis for your decision whether we're going forward or back."
Bestoul was refreshed and continued:
"My lord, there are only two situations that can make people so obedient."
"One is the absolute crushing of power, and the difference in power is so large that the weaker party can't even think of any resistance.
"We ruled out this situation. After all, the power of these nobles combined ~IndoMTL.com~ is quite powerful."
"The other is absolute suppression of status. The high-ranking person has an extremely powerful deterrent effect on the low-ranking person, even to the extent that the high-ranking person can dominate the fate of the low-ranking person with only words."
"The law of the jungle is applicable to the first type, but ethnic groups with a rule-based social system are often more suitable for the second type. The crushing comes from status and the crushing of power."
Kant Interface says:
"But status and power require strength to guarantee!"
Bestur nodded and said:
"Yes sir, status and power do require strength to ensure."
"But it doesn't necessarily need to be stronger than the combined power of all the low-ranking people, it just needs to be stronger than every low-ranking person. Behind the archmage who makes these nobles cooperate almost unconditionally, there may be such a person standing behind him. name exists."
"According to my speculation, he is likely to be your father, Archduke Cameron, Duke of the Lion."
