Chapter 1962: Chapter 1963: Seizing the Right to Speak
After muttering this sentence, Angel furrowed his brow suddenly, staring more intently at that strange magic pattern.
Tree Spirit, who was nearby, also heard Angelâs murmur.
Although Tree Spirit couldnât draft magic patterns, he still understood some rules about them. Connective magic patterns are a type of pattern used to link different magic pattern horns. They are inherently meaningless, but they serve as a critical junction to ensure continuity, a necessary component in all magic pattern drafting.
Despite being essential, connective magic patterns often appear frequently during drafting, and due to their inherent lack of meaning, they are often overlooked.
From Angelâs tone, it seemed he had previously overlooked a certain connective magic pattern, and now upon closer inspection, found that the connective magic pattern was repeated?
What could a repeated connective magic pattern signify?
Tree Spirit racked his brains with his limited knowledge of magic patterns to figure it out... but before he could deduce the reason, Angelâs murmur reached his ears again: "Oh, I was mistaken. Itâs not repeated."
Tree Spirit: "..."
Angel rubbed his chin, pondered for a moment, and then his eyes suddenly lit up: "This extra little horn canât form a connective magic pattern at all. Could it be connected to some place... a magic pattern!"
"Could it be a functional magic pattern?"
"If itâs a functional magic pattern, then it definitely has its effect." Angel spoke to himself with some excitement: "The defense magic pattern is already complete, so this function is certainly unrelated to the defense pattern; itâs an independent functional magic pattern!"
"Perhaps itâs the answer weâve been searching for?!"
Angel muttered to himself for a while, then suddenly sat cross-legged on the ground with excitement, taking out a piece of musk deer skin paper and quickly beginning to draft.
Tree Spirit also heard Angelâs voice, but this time he didnât follow along with Angelâs words, instead just listening casually without any expression... magic patterns werenât his area of expertise, so wild speculation would only be a waste of time.
As Angel speculated seriously, Tree Spirit leaned against the wall and let his thoughts wander inside the grand hall within the Eternal Tree. After all, seeing Angelâs focus, it seemed he wouldnât be done anytime soon, so he might as well check on Rheinâs sideâ
In the grand hall filled with vitality, Rhein was quickly discussing future decisions with those gathered inside.
The prophecy of Starwatch Day had already been spoken by Rhein. They were now discussing the most important aspect of Starwatch Day that he valued: Peach Heart Theater.
The reason Rhein attached so much importance to it was naturally because the first ticket booth of Peach Heart Theater appeared in the Eternal Night Country, very close to the Barbarian Cave.
"According to historical records, the distance from the first ticket booth where Peach Heart Theater appears wonât be too far. Perhaps even Peach Heart Theater itself will appear in the Eternal Night Country or nearby, making this an opportunity for us."
Wallace: "Lord Rhein, do you mean..."
"To seize the discourse power." Although the Barbarian Cave already had a significant presence in the Southern Domain, this time, Peach Heart Theater would attract not only people from the Southern Domain, and Rhein intended to elevate the overall discourse power of the Barbarian Cave within the Four Corners Wizardsâ Realm.
Obtaining discourse power means there is much room for maneuver.
For example, when the strong of the Four Corners Wizardsâ Realm come to the Southern Domain, they might bring regional special demonic materials. If we seize the discourse power and prove our authority, we can initiate small-scale trade gatherings and become the arbiters of these transactions.
The interest involved in this could be significantly large.
Of course, what Rhein values most is the reputation of the Barbarian Cave itself, yet being able to increase visibility and also acquire a large amount of otherworldly goods is also a wonderful thing.
After a moment of silence, others also understood Rheinâs intentions.
Wallace also nodded repeatedly: "Indeed, itâs an opportunity. If Peach Heart Theater is handled properly, it could very well become a grand event in the Four Corners Wizardsâ Realm!"
Although Peach Heart Theater might not stay long in the Southern Domain, and perhaps this so-called "grand event" may be short-lived, this is not a disadvantage, as once the discourse power is indeed seized, its influence will not merely be one-time or two-time.
"I support Lord Rheinâs view." Wallace muttered in a low voice, "Perhaps this could also enhance the reputation of White Gull Academy."
White Gull Academy was a faction Wallace established within the Barbarian Cave.
Others also voiced their agreement, as this was undoubtedly a matter where the benefits were clearly visible. However, some maintained concerns because attendees of Peach Heart Theater from the Four Corners Wizardsâ Realm would need to cross vast distances in a short time to reach the Southern Domain, which was no simple task.
While certain shortcuts are available, these paths to the Southern Domain require considerable strength, like the Abyssâs Phase Door...
This means that the outer domain wizards coming to Peach Heart Theater have extraordinary power. And great power comes with unknowable risks.
Rhein also considered this: "No matter how strong, it would be challenging for anyone to be at the Legendary Realm. As long as they are not Legendary, the presence of the Barbarian Caveâs local tyrant can handle any unknown risks."
Indeed, there is certainly risk. But, in any case, itâs unlikely the opposition would relocate their entire household to the Southern Domain. The Barbarian Cave is a local tyrant rooted in the Southern Domain, and it would be difficult for one or two people to shake its foundation.
With these words, no one opposed further.
The meeting then predominantly centered around the means of seizing discourse power. After much discussion, several steps were generally confirmed.
First, eliminate dangers. After all, the Eternal Night Country isnât safe right now, so the first step is to establish a safe island within its borders. This step is crucial, as only the Barbarian Cave can quickly layout a safe zone inside the Eternal Night Country. Other witcher organizations are either too far away or too weak.
Because they can establish a safe zone, the envisioned future is possible.
The second step is to establish the rules for the safe island and develop a trade market, or rather, a wizard market led by the Barbarian Cave.
The third step is to seize discourse power.
Though itâs only three steps, numerous simplifications are involved, and in practice, itâs not so easily accomplished. But at least the banner is raised, and the future becomes hopeful.
The next step is assigning personnel for each step.
Hearing this, Tree Spirit stopped paying attention. Firstly, these matters werenât as important; secondly, after many calculations, Angel seemed to have some results, finally pausing his efforts.
