Chapter 1188: Resistance to Magic
Karl began to cast the portal spell to Drodh and was immediately hit with the most intense resistance to magic use that he had ever felt.
[Cara, a little assistance?]
The Chaos Badger brought up a [Nullify] bubble around him, suppressing the effect. That let the portal form smoothly, just outside the main gates to Drodh.
Karl waved to the city guards and then tossed them a couple of gold coins.
"Can you lead these fine guests to the house? I will ask someone to get in contact with the Supreme Lady, as they are requesting a direct meeting." Karl explained.
"Of course, Sir. Ladies, Gentlemen. This way, please. We will get you settled in the crafting village for now, as it has lodging for everyone. Karl will have someone here to assist you in just a few minutes." The guard agreed.
From outside of Karl’s line of sight, a matronly voice replied. "No need. I will see them in. Where did you say that they needed to be?"
"Oh, Librarian Sapphire! Yes, that is perfect. Karl is on the other side of the portal, and he says they need to speak directly to the Supreme Lady." The Guard replied, sounding incredibly relieved that he didn’t need to be the one to tell someone to bring the Chaos Dragon over.
"Sapphire, before I run away again, how is the project coming?" Karl called.
"Very well. We’ve got the Inscriptionists from the Library here, and they’re working overtime on the skills needed for advanced Warriors, Clerics and Mages. Mage is still a bit spotty, as not every mage is compatible with the advanced spells we have found.
But there are also more advanced Mage Class residents compared to Advanced Warriors, so they’re not our biggest concern." She replied, then frowned.
"How long will you be gone? We could use your expertise here as well."
