442 The Female Priests of the Church of Storm, Slutty Outside Yet Prudish Inside (2/2)
Roland, on the other hand, left the capital and returned to Delpon through Long-Distance Teleportation.
He spent a day with Andonara and Vivian at the manor. Then, Roland resumed his work at the Magic Tower.
While he was away, Vivian had been managing the Magic Tower. She was not talented in magic, but she was quite gifted at management.
Both the Magic Tower and the school were well-organized thanks to her.
On the other hand, Cage did a better job than Vincent did in terms of city safety.
A sheriff had to deal with the quarrels and fights of ordinary people, so they had to know what ordinary people needed and how to get along with them.
As a person from a rich family, Vincent certainly did not know that as well as Cage did.
In her spare time, Andonara taught the players how to train into Great Swordsmen and made a lot of gold coins.
Because of Andonara, Delpon was quite famous among the players.
After all, the Great Swordsman was an OP class that only Andonara could help one turn into. So more and more players were coming to Delpon.
After he returned to the Magic Tower, Roland was focused on magic sword-making and item auto recovery.
Neither of the two techniques was hard as long as one changed their mindset first.
Item auto recovery, in particular, was a special application of causal magic power.
Essentially speaking, auto recovery was a traceback process.
An item's shape, form, and features could be recorded with causal magic power. Once it was deformed, the magic power nearby would be utilized to restore the item.
It was easier said than done.
What auto recovery needed was the glyph technology that Mordenkainen invented.
It was not Enchantment but an unsystematic technique to infuse magic power solely based on his own experience.
Different from Enchantment, the glyph technology was more effective, but it was also contrary to common sense.
It was one of the reasons why prophecy spells were hard to learn.
Most of the prophecy spells were created based on presumptions, but they somehow worked out in the end.
Therefore, even though Roland had accurate data for his modeling, it was hard for him to parse the glyphs.
Much of the data didn't match, or was even contradictory.
However, having invented Language Proficiency and Unhindered Communication, Roland had known a thing or two about causal spells. After a dozen days, he finally got the hang of auto recovery.
Roland smashed a cup with a huge noise.
Soon, the pieces of the cup slowly moved on their own. But it was so slow that Roland estimated that it would take more than three days for the pieces to regather.
And this was only a cup made of clay.
It would've taken even longer if the cup were made of iron or magic.
He might have to wait a month, or even years if he wanted to recover a large item.
That speed was enough for daily use. After all, most items degenerated slowly. If they were recovered every day, they would almost be permanent.
However, it was not good enough for battle.
If a piece of equipment was damaged in a battle, it would be pointless if the equipment couldn't be recovered very quickly.
”The glyphs are exactly the same as Mordenkainen said, but I'm not as fast as him. What is the key?”
Deep in thought, Roland subconsciously checked the math model he established again, hoping to infer his drawbacks. But he failed to find anything after a long observation.
All the data was correct, but none was useful when it came to the recovery technique.
While he was thinking, Vivian opened the door of the lab and came in. She said, ”Chairman, something happened in the city. Cage is already there, but it's tricky to deal with. He wants you to go and take a look.”
Oh?
What could something that even Cage found tricky be?
Roland immediately went there.
In front of a small manor, Roland saw Cage with twenty city guards confronting a team in yellow cleric robes.
Heavy armor under a yellow robe was the typical appearance of the Church of Storm.
Roland walked to them and found a blue triangle on their yellow robes, which was a symbol of the Church of Storm.
There were also two female clerics in the team who were both wearing short skirts. All the female clerics of the Church of Storm wore such sexy robes, because their goddess wore such.
They did not feel anything wrong at all about dressing in such a revealing way.
”What happened?” Roland walked to them.
Cage was relieved to see Roland. ”They're going to take Conan Doyle's family, claiming that Conan Doyle defied their goddess.”
Roland looked at them and found a bunch of people behind the clerics of the Church of Storm.
