Can you hear me?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After sending this message, Lann waited for over three hours to receive a reply.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was Margaret’s delighted voice, though in the cone-shaped crystal’s communication, it was transformed into an old-fashioned phone-like, noise-ridden female voice.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Ha! I did it! This communication magic works! I told you the magic array I deduced couldn’t be wrong!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Lann, let’s be concise next. The magic power consumption on our end is enormous.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even though it was expected, the fact that cross-world communication succeeded on the first try left Lann feeling a bit surreal.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He held the cone-shaped crystal, looked it over from every angle, and finally shrugged.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This field of ’scientific research’ was not his forte; no matter how he looked, he couldn’t discern more from it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Thus, Lann could only concentrate on his current affairs.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I have some trouble here, and I need the technical support of a magic expert.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lann then explained the situation of a deer-headed spirit appearing in the other world to Margaret.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He clarified that this deer-headed spirit was entirely different from the usual sort, having grown too powerful to deal with easily.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, the hardest part at the moment is trying to find a few small clues over a vast area; otherwise, there’s not even a chance to face off with the deer-headed spirit.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"A deer-headed spirit?\" Margaret’s tone revealed surprise upon hearing this.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Wait a minute; if it’s a monster issue, then perhaps I’m not too familiar. I need to consult Belengar.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then came another long wait.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Later, it seemed Margaret had brought in Tishaya to take over the cone-shaped crystal communication.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Margaret’s talent in spells is top-notch, but when handling affairs and sudden situations, she habitually seeks advice from her teacher.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Tishaya’s calm, smooth, and efficient voice transmitted from the cone-shaped crystal into Lann’s mind.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"According to Wolf Demon Hunter records, the exceedingly rare ancient deer-headed spirit among the deer-headed spirits does indeed possess the talent to open undirected portals. The one you’ve encountered likely opened a portal itself and wandered over by coincidence.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"But as you mentioned, the biggest challenge you face now is finding the individuals cursed by the deer-headed spirit. If Rita or I were by your side, it would be quite simple. Entrails or shard divination could easily pinpoint a region.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"However, considering the spellcasting capability of demon hunters...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Tishaya didn’t finish her sentence, but the unspoken implication already let Lann understand the headache from their side.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>To female warlocks, spellcasting is the primary choice for solving problems. However, they’re not by Lann’s side now, and Lann’s spellcasting abilities fall short, leaving even remote guidance impossible.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The situation is somewhat stuck; magic from distant worlds doesn’t seem to be of help at this moment.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lann furrowed his brows but then seemed to have thought of something after a moment.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He reactivated the cone-shaped crystal after a long silence.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Let’s not mention target locking for now.\" Lann carefully chose his words, striving not to cause any misunderstanding in this precious cross-world communication time.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Tishaya, do you and Margaret still remember the Yakxi Rune of the demon hunter?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I need you to help me refine it so it can produce a spell effect similar to ’two-way telepathy’ under a demon hunter’s spellcasting ability. Can you manage that?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After another long wait, a slightly speechless voice from Margaret came from the Magic World.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You’re asking two Airetusa deans to refine a demon hunter’s trick.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She paused slightly, seemingly pursing her lips.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"And then you ask us ’can we do it’?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"...You do realize whom you’re talking to, right, dear?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Demon Hunter couldn’t help but chuckle softly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It’s assured.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"By the way, I also need your help; I need to contact the Lady of the Lake... No, nothing, I just thought it could serve as a contingency plan.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>-----------------\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Subsequently, Lann and the Grand Commander stayed another two days at the third expedition’s research base.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>During these two days, under the guidance of the two Airetusa deans using the cone-shaped crystal, Lann developed an alternative casting method for his Yakxi Rune.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Tishaya and Margaret actually took only half a day to refine the Yakxi Rune to a satisfactory state.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After all, the ability of ’telepathy’ is a basic, passive skill for any formally trained wizard or witch.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even the most proficient spellcasters of the Griffin School demon hunters just never focused their research here.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the end, they’re mainly warriors who double as scholars, and the development direction of the Yakxi Rune in their hands still leans more towards mind control and thought confusion.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Otherwise, they could have developed it quickly too.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And these two days were mainly consumed by cross-world communication.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Teaching is something that speeds up with two-way communication; the Magic World provided Lann with ’textbooks’ and Lann needed to identify and relay any points of discomfort during learning.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then Tishaya and Margaret would further emphasize explanations in these areas.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Between sending and receiving, this form of communication, resembling phone messages at present, dragged out the procedure by two days.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This was thanks to the ’interstellar civilization-level learning device’ Mentos exerting its power; otherwise, if an ordinary demon hunter were to learn a new magic seal variant, even with face-to-face teaching, it would take over a week.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And once Lann could steadily use this new Yakxi Rune, he called the Grand Commander in the morning and set out from the research base.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Do you have a solution?\" The Grand Commander asked in surprise. \"But the Thief Adventurer’s Group hasn’t returned yet.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Waiting passively is too disadvantageous,\" Lann said as they stepped out of the research base, and the demon hunter looked up, seemed to confirm a direction, then unhesitatingly set off on his way.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I’ve found a more proactive way... but I need to find a helper.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"A helper?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Grand Commander scratched his golden buzz-cut. He couldn’t figure it out; there are no more than a few thousand humans in this new continent.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Land Coral Plateau is still unexplored territory; what help could they find?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Just follow and you’ll see.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lann had a demeanor of ’too lazy to explain, just keep up with me’.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As they continued advancing across the Land Coral Plateau, traversing the vividly colored terrestrial corals.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Grand Commander looked at the increasingly heavy black thunderclouds in the sky, seeming to finally understand something.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He looked at Lann leading the way in astonishment.\u003C\u002Fp>",1132,"2026-06-06T10:40:26.754Z",1,"novelbin.me","16ef0415e257415e6fcb5ee5019b1437c675820923bbc86b5dd2f4273af08e70","bear-school-astartes-chapter-762","bear-school-astartes-chapter-760",1043,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fbear-school-astartes-cover.jpg"]
