I, The Dragon Overlord - Chapter 405

Chapter 405 – Voyage

Over the past few years, as major supernatural events shook the world and came to the fore of the news, other more sporadic and small-scale events also occurred. These lay beyond the purview of the common citizen and were instead intensely studied by governments and their departments.

And though these occurrences yielded some data, they did little but confuse the analysts further.

Some occultists theorized that mysterious forces could not contact mortals, but this was a flawed assumption considering all that had happened in recent years.

Those few supernatural events involving mortals were so rare that they could not even create any statistics and could only be discussed anecdotally. This case, that of the magic academy, however, was different. There were more than a hundred cases and all of them involved ordinary people – from students to office workers. This event caught the world’s governments’ attention. Every government began to believe that ordinary people could touch upon mysterious powers.

“According to the information of the invitations received by people all over the world, we have found that the language used in these letters was all in accordance with their readers’ preference. There were even some extremely rare indigenous languages. From the text of the invitation, it seemed that only one person was writing them, but experts have discussed together and agreed that the text on the invitations was like fonts on computers. Moreover, they should be written with magic and not handwritten.”

Gui Bin had become calmer and calmer as he faced the higher-ups. Even with so many leaders in front of him, he still spoke steadily.

No matter who was listening, they all felt that Gui Bin was quite good. In just a few months, this once dispensable person had become someone who had grasped some power.

“San Soliel Magic Academy. From the name, San Soliel should be the name of the place, but the world’s best geographers, historians, religious scholars, and theologians have checked all kinds of legends and histories, but have yet to find anything related to San Soliel at all. So I suspect that this place did not appear on Earth, or perhaps it is not even on Earth.”

Hearing Gui Bin’s words, all of them secretly nodded. These gods, demons, and other terrifying existences were being researched by various countries. They all felt that this tiny planet called Earth would not be able to withstand their great power, and had long suspected that these existences lived in places like heaven, hell, and others. They believed that they were either higher dimensional planes or other planets of the universe.

With the massive emergence of supernatural events, some countries could no longer hide private information. Even the United States had come up with some items that were more than tens of thousands of years old that proved that aliens existed somewhere in the universe and had visited Earth.

Moreover, the black hole of galaxy M87, which was the first photographed by humans, had a mass of 6.5 billion times that of the sun. Such a comparison showed that human beings were really worthless dust in the entire universe.

“Everyone should understand the words ‘school of magic ‘. It should refer to a school that taught students magic. I don’t know if anyone of you has read Harry Potter’s Hogwarts School of Magic, but experts believe that this novel should be a good representative of what it is.”

Gui Bin was afraid that these old people did not know what it was, so he even took out some movie clips to explain it in a brief manner.

“England also sent people to ask J.K. Rowling about this, but she responded that she created this novel purely by inspiration. We have reason to suspect that perhaps these inspirations are not from the author, but by the influence of wizards and that she was just a lucky person.”

“The Order of Merlin and Archmage Marches on the invitation should refer to the same ones who appeared in Buckingham to the rescue of Queen Elizabeth. The head wizard was named Marches, and he claimed to be from the Victorian period.”

“At that time, a fairy gave the British Princess Charlotte a golden apple, and Archmage Marches had said that he would take the princess as an apprentice. This little princess had also received an invitation this time.”

Gui Bin’s words fell, and the people listening to him were stirred and began discussing with each other.

Princess Charlotte was the one who had the highest status among those who received the invitation. They wondered what impact this had on England, especially once the princess truly learned magical spells.

However, this matter was nothing to do with them, so they did not care too much.

“Did anyone… in our army receive an invitation?”

A chief suddenly asked.

But several big wigs shook their heads, “Our policy is atheism.”

As the words fell, the chief felt a little embarrassed, because the invitation indicated that it was only for people who believed in the existence of magic.

Seeing everyone finish chatting, Gui Bin continued, “Please see there. This is the island shown on the map of the invitation. It is located to the west of the Scottish sea. These are the pictures taken by our satellite.”

Gui Bin put dozens of diagrams of the island in succession, and each one was extremely detailed.

“This island is an uninhabited island and does not occupy a large area. It doesn’t even have a name nor does it appear on any map, but it is mentioned in some nautical texts. There is nothing on the island, but at certain times of the year fierce storms would appear to surround the island.”

“In the past, no one thought there was anything wrong with this phenomenon, but now, it looks more likely that those storms were created by magicians to protect the island.”

“……”

The meeting lasted all afternoon. In the face of unknown power, everyone was being cautious for fear of making the slightest mistake.

The leaders continued their discussion until some gave the final instruction.

“We should do a good job of communicating closely with the people who received the invitations. Make sure that they are safe and make them believe that the motherland will stand behind them and support them. We also need to safely deliver these people to the island.”

“Leaders at all levels should communicate well. Do not use coercion and try to instill a sense of honor in the country. Don’t ask them to make a lot of contributions, just ask that we don’t lag behind other countries. The safety of the people’s lives and property is the most important thing.”

At the same moment, the governments of the world began more intensive research and study.

……

Somewhere in the seas northwest of Scotland, there was a lot of activity.

After communicating with the Scottish government, the governments all over the world dispatched agents to send those people who had received invitations here, ready to send them out to sea toward the mysterious island before the arrival of the fifteenth day.
