Volume 5 The Trial of the Twins Chapter 69 Hoinheim's Choice
Although Romanita cannot see, she has a sense of everything around her that goes far beyond vision. The expression on Fang Qiuling's face only changed slightly, but it was still noticed by her.
- How? What did you find?
- He thought of something, the kind that would help us. But what exactly is unknown.
- Helpful to us? Does it mean that He can help us get out of the predicament we are facing?
- Yes...... From the first time I "saw" him, I was convinced. He is the one who is the guide in the prophecy.
Just as Fang Qiuling used a psychic link to connect himself with Xiao Hanqi and Avril, the chiefs of Hoinheim also used similar magic to synchronize the spiritual realm.
Romanita's offer was too sudden. In particular, the proposed deed clause looks like a one-sided deed of sale.
When other magicians are looking for an employer, the conditions provided by the employer are not ungenerous. From the magic tower to the daily life, as long as the magician makes a request, there is nothing that is not satisfied. However, the terms proposed by Romanita did the opposite, except for ten years of employment and basic living security requirements, the other conditions were quite "equal", and it did not feel like inviting a "master", but hiring a simple-minded, well-developed barbarian warrior.
So in the invisible spiritual world, the five chiefs are arguing.
Naka, your prophecy is accurate. The previous columns have proved you right again and again...... But I don't think it's appropriate to be all attached to the Norn family and to this one.
- I also disagree. The conditions are so bad that it feels like signing a deed of sale.
- Can this man speak? It looks so young. Although he is the head of the Norn family, he is so young, the affairs of the Norn family should be decided by the elders, and it is not his turn yet.
- We're high magicians, not muscular stupid big guys!
Among the five chiefs, the chief prophecy, Naka Hilt de Romanita, is the proposer, and naturally actively promotes the progress of the matter, as much as possible. The chief of defense, Castoro von Hoinheim, was initially opposed, but he was convinced. As the chief prophecy chief of Hoinheim, Romanita has made many accurate predictions over the decades, and Hoinheim has benefited a lot from this, and she cannot be biased towards outsiders, she must have "plotted".
However, the other three chiefs, Leslie Pym, chief spells, Edward Frederick Wood, chief of sculpting, and George Hamilton Gordon, chief of change, all three of them objected. Kalmarofey von Hoinheim, the number one man, remained silent.
According to the Hoinheim internal tradition, in the absence of the first chief, the leader, major internal decisions are decided by the vote of the chiefs of each faction. The current number of votes stands at two in favour and three against. The proposal of the chief prophecy undoubtedly did not receive a majority, which means that it did not pass.
- Don't make a decision quickly. Now that the prophecy has made it clear that it is Him, no matter what decision we make, the final outcome will not change......
- Is this part of the prophecy, or is it your speculation?
- neither part of the prophecy nor my speculation, but a fact of what is to come......
- Naka, I'd love to trust you. You've saved every single one of us, and more than once. But this time, it's hard for me to agree with your proposal.
There is still a lot of debate in the spiritual realm, mainly between the chief prophecy of the "one debate of the positive side" and the chief of the "one debate of the opposing side" of plastic energy.
The chief prophet, Naka Hilt de Romanita, always emphasized the inevitability and direction of the prophecy, while Edward Frederick Wood, the chief of the Shaping Energy, was a clear opponent.
Hohenheim is indeed in decline, with a serious decline in financial and material resources, and access to resources gradually shrinking. But the biggest problem is in people. It's been a long time since the core magician team has been replenished with fresh blood, and the entire Hoinheim hasn't recruited new magic apprentices for a long time, even if the recruitment requirements have been lowered again and again. And the age of the chiefs is gradually increasing, and half of them have entered old age......
However, even though the overall strength has declined significantly, Hoinfheim is still not to be underestimated. In Hoinheim's original station, they were the uncrowned kings, almost indistinguishable from the overlords of the secession side. Its power at its peak was no less than that of a small kingdom. Even now, Hohenheim still has the strength to dominate the local area, and there is no need to rely on a certain family in a similar way to survive.
- Naka, I remember the prophecy pointing to ...... not long ago It was the girl, the girl who was seriously injured. You said that she was the key to the future, and suggested that you do everything you can to treat her. But why, why is it not the girl who is referred to in the prophecy, but to this new young man?
Karma Luofei was silent for a long time, and asked slowly.
- because only that girl can impress the one in front of her.
Romanita's words were steady, as if she were saying something that was taken for granted.
- How do you impress? Impress with what?
- With all due respect, the girl's character is speechless, her qualifications are quite good, and she is very beautiful. But alas, she is gone. The magic is countercurrent, and now it is suppressed, but how long can it be suppressed? It's hopeless! Once the countercurrent accelerates, it is a miracle to be able to save a life!
- We are "Light Chasers", and the way and method of studying magic is different from that of ordinary magicians. Naka, are you sure he won't care? Although it is just an academic disagreement, it is just a difference in the perception of the world. But in the name of academic disagreement, we have already suffered countless times. Can you guarantee that this one doesn't care?
The three opposition chiefs remain worried. They trusted Romanita, but it was difficult for them to trust Fang Qiuling.
- So let's try it first.
Romanita seems to have been waiting for their dissent for a long time.
- Try?
- Yes, try. She is the key, and then we deliver the key to the person named in the prophecy.
- What if......
- There are no ifs. Even if there were, it was just that he took her away, and there was nothing to lose for us. You know, she wasn't hurt by us, and it doesn't matter to us to take revenge.
Romanita's proposal was immediately approved by all the chiefs.
- Agreed.
- Indeed, agreed.
- Agreed. It's best if he can settle the cost of treatment.
Karma Lofe remained silent again. When it wasn't necessary, he would hardly interfere with the decisions made by the chiefs together.
ββ¦β¦ Mr. Norn. You just said that you are here to find someone? β
"Yes, that's right. Lady Romanita, have you seen her......"
Before the question came out, Fang Qiuling felt that he was a fool. If you want to ask if you have seen it, you should ask the other Hoinheim chiefs around you, but not the master of prophecy. But the prophet's subsequent words took him by surprise.
"If your description is correct, the one you're looking for...... You must be related to the female companion next to you, right? β
"Yes, that's right! She's my sister! Xiao Hanqi couldn't wait to be the first to say, "Ms. Romanita, have you seen my sister?" Where is she? How's she doing? β
"She's not doing very well." Chief of Protection, Xastoro von Hoinheim, took over the words, "Broken rib on the right side, open fracture of the right leg, comminuted fracture of the right arm, ......"
Just by saying the beginning, Ε astoro von Hohenheim felt the pressure rise sharply. Fang Qiuling's gaze was full of oppression, and his heavy aura couldn't help but remind people of a fierce giant beast.
ββ¦β¦ The trauma was severe, but not a big problem. Although Shastoro von Hohenheim was shocked, her voice remained steady, "What is really problematic is the magic circuit in her body. Her magic circuit was 'cut off' once, and then forcibly continued and forcibly activated. The reactivated mana circuit has caused a lot of damage to her body, and there is already a reverse flow of mana......"
Fang Qiuling raised his hand and directly interrupted Shasdoro von Hoinheim's words: "Where is she?" β
"Tent ...... in the back"
Fang Qiuling nodded slightly to Shasdoro von Hoinheim in thanks, and then turned his gaze to Karma Luofei who was sitting in the center.
Karma Luofei whispered a word to the Chief Protection, and then nodded to Fang Qiuling as well. Fang Qiuling immediately got up and walked out of the tent.
"I'm sorry everyone, I'll miss ...... first."
Xiao Hanqi tugged on Fang Qiuling's sleeve and followed behind him without saying a word. Avril pursed her lips and got up to follow with a nonchalant expression.
Shastoro von Hoinheim led Fang Qiuling to a white tent not far away. The curtain of the white tent has a bright red cross on it β exactly like the illustration of medical treatment in the world.
When the curtain was lifted, a strong smell of herbs came to my face. As a master of alchemy, Fang Qiuling immediately recognized the hemostatic medicine, the wound medicine, and the aura produced by the concentration of various herbs.
Looking closely, a small cubicle similar to a ward came into view. Several figures in white robes were busily walking through the cubicles, and from time to time there were the groans of patients and the loud cries of pain.
ββ¦β¦ Are you short of healing potions? β
The environment in the medical tent is decent, and almost every patient can be assigned to a separate cubicle. However, most of the patients were seriously injured and limited by medical supplies, so they could only be subjected to initial hemostasis and bandaging, and could not be further treated.
"Hmm. The healing potions have run out, and the herbs are not enough......"
Shasdoro von Hoinheim led Fang Qiuling all the way forward with a solemn face, and walked directly to the slightly larger compartment in the deepest part of the tent.
