Chapter 1087 The Beginning of the Mage War
Even with the Pure White Church's efforts to mediate from it, the war still began.
The first move was Adrick Academy.
Under the dispatch of Sivi, Adrick's students defeated the Mages' Association sent out in one fell swoop by making full use of the resources of their academy far superior to the Mages Association, trying to surround Simolo's advance troops.
Because the victory was too clean and neat, the eyes of the idle people around him who were waiting to see jokes and touch the corpse almost fell out.
Some people may ask, it was said before that the old man Shaman of the War Mage Association and Sivi of Adrick Academy had already had a tacit understanding in the dark, and had even decided the direction of the war long ago. So why would there be such a situation where the advance army of the Mage Association surrounded Simolo?
The reason is very simple.
Because the further we go, although the scale of the war will expand to a certain extent, due to Xiwei's intervention, there is almost no need to doubt the result.
So if the Mages Association wants to have more bargaining chips at the post-war negotiating table, it can only gain a considerable advantage in the early stage.
There is no need to try to kill the students of Adrick Academy, just defeat them. And let them go like a dog that leaves the bereaved, so that they can give Sivi an invisible constraint - from a war perspective, giving up killing the students of Adrick is to give Sivi a favor.
Even if Xiwei takes action, he will definitely be restrained because of this favor. If someone deliberately lets go of your student, you will kill him. This is a bit too much.
You should know that Adrick does not need a tough administrative organization, but a school. Schools with lost reputations not only cannot gain the respect of others, but will also greatly affect their own development.
Sivi is not a fool, so he naturally knows the strangeness.
But even though he knows, he won't be stupid enough to give points to the other party.
After exploring the general strategy of the local area, it is time to deal with it by chance.
During the battle, the advance troops of the Mages Association all had more or less free acts of water - probably because they were afraid that they would accidentally kill the students of Adrick Academy and would attract revenge from Siwei - but because of this, they were defeated by Adrick's students, those little guys who seemed to be just rookies in their eyes.
But in the same way, Sivi did not kill these defeated mages, otherwise the war would have changed.
He just asked the students who were studying seals in the school to create a special set of seal scrolls, which sealed the magic of the defeated and captured mages - the seal on the scroll would last for about three months, and by that time the war should almost end.
It’s not that the Mages Association has no choice but to do with this seal. In fact, as long as the magicians from the academy work hard to study, they can decipher the seal in about a month, and maybe the curse patterning over there will be a little progress.
It is not impossible to even ignore the sealing principle and let strong men at the level of great magicians directly solve the curse.
But if all the academy mages were really thrown into the mage tower for research, then Hornheim's combat effectiveness would further shrink, and the war might end in one month.
If the great magician forcefully unravels the curse, it will have a considerable impact on the spirit and mana. If the academic mage leaves the field and affects the main combat power, then the great magician unravels the curse to affect the high-end combat power. No matter what, Hornheim will suffer.
You should know that this is not just one or two seals. Just the anti-encirclement and suppression of Simolo's advance army, the number of sealed magicians exceeded one thousand (although most of them were lower-ranking magicians).
According to the development of the war, it is obvious that this situation will worsen for Hornheim.
Then the question is, can Hornheim use the same means to deal with Adrick Academy?
Perhaps the senior executives there will make similar attempts, but the final result will definitely disappoint them.
Because Adrick's Three Sages System can decipher almost all sealing and barrier methods in this era in a short period of time, and then just use a low-cost, fast and effective way to unprint it...
As the war continued, the balance of victory quickly moved towards Adrick in an absolutely inclined manner, in the astonished eyes of everyone who did not understand the inside story.

"It's really incomprehensible!"
A magician complained in a wooded area at the southern end of the eastern plain.
He and his companions were now marching in the woods.
This forest is not a good person. There are swamps and natural pit traps hidden in many places. Even the most experienced hunters will move forward slowly with all their attention when entering it.
But these magicians are different.
They sat on the slide rod, carried by the spirit servants like a sedan chair, and quickly shuttled through the forest.
The mage who just complained took out his wand and shook it gently, and a trap detection spell was cast, and many dark red light spots suddenly appeared on the ground.
The spiritual servants carefully avoided the places where these light spots were.
"I don't know what the above thought, but he actually asked us to show mercy to those little kids..." He took back his wand and then continued: "What a joke, we are not rookies! You must know that the magicians' battles will be defeated as long as they are negligent, and the consequences of defeat will probably die! Do those bastards in the mage council do not take our lives to heart?"
"Well, I think there should be my own ideas above. Mr. Shaman is not like the kind of person who jokes about other people's lives." Another round-faced mage said calmly. It seemed that he was more optimistic in nature: "Maybe we can go back to Hornheim as long as we go through the motions? I would rather huddle in the mage tower to do experiments than slaughtering others or being killed by others."
His words resonated a lot, and other mages also praised them.
Suddenly, the spirit servants stopped their movements.
Not far from them, a man in a windbreaker and a hood stood there, as if waiting for their arrival.
"Who are you?"
The magician who complained at the beginning narrowed his eyes and pulled out his wand as if he was facing a great enemy.
But almost the next moment, round holes appeared in the space around them.
Immediately afterwards, other mages around were swept into the space hole by the claws or tentacles that suddenly stretched out from the holes. Then, large swells of blood splattered out of the holes, and all the mages screamed shrillly before their death.
The remaining magician was scared by this sudden change. He screamed and waved his wand and shot out a silver airflow.
The hooded man opposite just tilted his head slightly and easily avoided the silver airflow.
But because of this, his hood was held down by the aftermath of the airflow, revealing the face under the hood.
"It's you!"
The magician obviously knew the other party, and roared and wanted to continue casting the magic.
But the Hooded Man didn't give him this opportunity.
Just snapped his fingers gently, and a huge blue sub-dragon creature fell from the sky, tearing the mage into a mess of meat.
"Stop playing," it was not until this time that the Hoodman closed the holes of the space and then jumped behind the blue arrond, and then said to the blue arrond: "Let's go, Digarex."
