Chapter 115: City of Wisdom

How the City of Wisdom appeared in the first place and how it was established is untestable. Scholars live here and watch everything with cold eyes. A night owl, like an elf under the moonlight, flew from a distance against the background of the moon. At first, it was a black spot, and then gradually occupied the entire field of vision, completely blocking the moon behind him, and finally turned into a huge shadow passing by.
A few months later, Bran's name appeared in the city again. The name first appeared here, a few years ago. Xiao En, the scholar who had been silent in the Northland, suddenly moved. This forgotten person reported Bran's name, and he found someone who could inherit the mantle. About a year ago, Sean reported in an uncertain tone that Bran had discovered the secret of wizard evolution. Until a few months ago, the scholars in the Northland returned news one after another, and the fairy appeared. The creatures in the legend of the North actually exist.
It is not accidental that scholars can be found everywhere. They have their own organizational system. They use their knowledge to serve various places, and at the same time they are constantly absorbing new knowledge and talents from all places.
When this situation reached the Northland, it began to become awkward. Scholars entered there generation after generation, and then began to fall silent. They have never really come into contact with the secrets of the North, and they can't even cultivate their heirs from the North. How many years have passed, the City of Wisdom has filled the North.
But no one loses patience, because they don't get it because they haven't paid enough. Only some things started to change. The first batch of young and outstanding scholars entered the Northland with confidence, but their fate allowed them to age silently. When death came, the new successor inherited their position. Gradually, this place was regarded as an unknown place. Although the people who came were even better, their status had changed. Most of them are people who have made some mistakes, and this has become a place of exile, a place of atonement.
There are too many secrets in the North. How does a seemingly barbaric race master the top smelting technology? What is the source of their power? Wait, wait, there are too many things that are peeped by scholars.
From the beginning of the Battle of Perpetual River, before the Northern Land revealed people for the first time, scholars noticed the strangeness of this race, and realized that there was something they were interested in. Knowledge is tempting, and acquiring it does require learning and recording. But what will happen to you when the other party refuses to teach you what you want?
Perhaps from the black robes on the scholars, one can guess that this is not a group that considers itself noble. They are also predators, predators of knowledge.
Years of hard work began to pay off, and years of not-so-noble behavior finally gained. Only a thousand days are a thief, how can a thousand days be a thief? Now the secret of the Northland opened a corner to them. The appearance of the fairies allowed scholars to re-examine and collect the legends of the Northland. Perhaps from these legends, they can discover more hidden truths and knowledge.
Ye Xiao brought the latest news of Lava City, and a complex mission set out from there. Their target was the Northland and Bran in the Northland.
The information that scholars have is the most comprehensive and reliable. As Sean said, he was recording everything he could. He took the trouble to record everything in the castle, including Bran. This old scholar records day by day, never neglecting any one person, any detail, and now this persistence and hard work shows value. Bran’s various things from birth to later are completely presented to the scholars. Bran is the one who truly masters the evolution of wizards, which is no secret for scholars.
They decided to save Bran. If possible, scholars hope Bran will be one of them. A team of twenty people set off from the City of Wisdom, a group of special scholars. Under the black robe are delicate chain armor and short swords, and long swords and shields are fixed on the side of the saddle.
Can stand on this land, guard and seize the knowledge of all parties with a neutral attitude, how can it be a group of unarmed people? How could the tall and smart city lack the foundation of flesh and blood? It is time for fresh flesh and blood to consolidate this great city.
...
Bran didn't have the mood and energy to care about the changes outside for the time being. He was trapped in the northern city and sat withered under the big tree. Now there is another annoying Zoya next to him, speeding up and consuming his little patience.
This is not the original villa, he can do nothing. With the growth of power and the constant understanding of magic, Bran has more confusion and questions. He needs to think and verify with all his heart, he needs time. He should hide in the villa and continue to accumulate his strength. But in order to get rid of the shackles and truly enjoy freedom, these are the prices he must pay. Only after paying the price, Bran found himself even more unfree.
The construction of the city was not very smooth, and Bran realized that something was wrong after the stall was spread. The stall was too big and the manpower was severely understaffed, so he had to readjust. The Northland City now appears chaotic, and this situation will continue for a long time. Several suspended construction sites, like huge scars, laughed at his incompetence.
In Zoya's eyes, Bran is still the little Northlander who likes to listen to her stories. The only difference is that he was sitting in a rocking chair at that time, but now he is sitting under a tree. She couldn't understand Bran's troubles, and Bran would not pour out a child.
Zoya finally started to care about Bran's affairs after several days of talking. I heard: "You killed a lot of people this time?"
"Who said that? What does it mean, ‘killed a lot of people again?’" Bran was a little dissatisfied.
"Everyone is talking."
"Don't listen to their nonsense! Last time, I did not kill the people. This time, the Anya people were killed by the dragon and the royal family. I did not kill."
Bran didn't want to talk about these things with the little girl, not to deceive, but to think it was inappropriate to tell the child. Although in this world, blood and violence have long been integrated into daily life. The children have become accustomed to seeing them since they were young, but currently he is reluctant to talk about this with a child, especially a little girl.
"Lie! I know what you did with the white wolves these days."
Bran was taken aback, "Who told you?"
"More than one of my entourage knights and servants saw them. I heard their private conversations."
"Oh, don't you feel scared or nauseous?"
"No! We will also execute criminals. But I haven't seen a wolf cannibalizing, so take me with me next time." Zoya looked eager to try.
Bran sighed, "Okay."
Amid Zoya's cheers, Bran became silent. He needs to adjust his mentality now. The little girl cheers for the upcoming, flesh-and-blood picture, which is too beautiful...
Zoya didn't let him go, she posted and continued: "Teach me to kill, okay?"
Bran licked his teeth, looked up and down carefully, then reached out and touched her head: "As long as you want to learn."
There is no need to teach Bran to kill. The little girl already has good skills, and those are used to save lives. Perhaps this is just an act of the little girl expressing closeness, or perhaps the little girl’s feeling of curiosity about the sword and body, Bran could not see any bloodthirsty or insidiousness in the girl’s bright eyes.
...
When Il came in, he heard and saw this scene. Her mentality adjusted quickly, and now she no longer fears. Through observation, she found that the people from the north are very easy to get along with, and they never take harshly with those around them. As long as you don't become their enemy, as long as you work hard for them.
In just a few days, the residents of Beidi City got rid of their initial fear, and began to have idlers come to watch the fun, and even agreed to go to see wolf cannibals next time. The initial fear was gradually replaced by another emotion-the master, so as the crowd watched, the applause gradually sounded.
If you think about life here, it hasn't changed much. Except for the city that has become a little messy, it is not much different from before. And people believe that with the progress of urban construction, this kind of mess will soon disappear, provided that there are enough manpower.
Yes, manpower!
Il was to report the manpower problem to Bran. There are a few good and courageous guys who entered the mountain privately and caught a few mountain people back. Bran started, and now someone is starting to follow suit.
Bran, who was feeling powerless, thought it was good. Go ahead...
