"This matter has been decided, there is no need to discuss it any more." King Luo Ruian first made the final decision, and then asked, "Wallis, did you find any flaws in it?"
"Your Majesty, this remnant of spiritual light is too incomplete. I can only roughly judge that it is indeed very similar to some features of the Beast Slaughter series of spells, but those few badges and accessories, I am sure are definitely imitations!"
"Oh? What do you say?"
"Although the badges of the society I founded are genuine for sale at the headquarters of the Erintal Society, I imagine that those behind the scenes would not dare to enter there and leave traces. Of course, this is not the point. The key point is the badges of the Orc Slayer Society. The material is made of coinage materials, but has been modified to a certain extent. There are forged signs of wear and tear on the badges and jewelry displayed by Master Tai Lun. Through these marks, it can be seen that the material of these badges is not coinage material."
After speaking, Wallis took out a society badge for his own use. The spell cast left a mark of wear on its surface. As expected, a group of consultants discovered the material difference between the two.
At this time, Wallis continued: "Actually, the Society has never thought of making money on badges. Old badges can be exchanged for new ones for free at the headquarters. Generally speaking, no spellcaster will use the badges at all. To the point where the surface is worn away, you can actually tell it’s a fake just from that alone.”
It would be possible if they were humans, but elves, even the current Yin Erfalan elves, were originally from lower-class civilians in the past. After so many years, they have long developed the exquisite style of upper-class elves.
In fact, bloodline has never been the key to distinguishing the upper class from the lower class, strength is.
Wallis even felt that the man behind the scenes deliberately left jewelry with traces of wear and tear from long-term use as a humiliation to the current Yin Erfarang elves.
"Mage Tyron, I'll leave it to you to investigate the clues about the forged badge. If you need anything, you can ask it now."
"Your Majesty, before I came here, I had initially traced the clues to these badges and ornaments, but was blocked by a powerful force. I need the authorization of Advisor Mikael to use the secret lock of the Ministry of Internal Affairs to investigate."
After Yin Erfran's centralization reform, all mythos were included in the same system, but the internal division of authority was still different. For example, the Ministry of Internal Affairs was actually the Ministry of Intelligence, specializing in exploration and retrieval, and was under the jurisdiction of the ruling advisor Mikael.
Although Tai Lun is a senior mage and serves within the system, he is directly under the command of King Mian and is responsible for supervision and law enforcement.
But in terms of expertise, the Ministry of Internal Affairs is more professional in terms of exploration and pursuit.
Since the matter was so important, the ruling advisor Mikael naturally would not deliberately create difficulties on this issue. Before the crowned king of Rorian could speak, he agreed on the spot and directly controlled the Mystic Lock to grant Tyron relevant authority.
In fact, it would be better to leave this matter to the Ministry of Internal Affairs, but it was the subordinates of King Mian who discovered this incident first. King Mian wanted to use this matter to show his authority, and Mikael would not be too disappointed.
The crown prince and the ruling advisor jointly govern the country. There has been a consensus among Yin Erfalang that the increase in the crown prince's prestige will not undermine the real power of the ruling advisor. On the contrary, a prestigious crown prince can unite the lower class people better.
…
After Tyron left, the palace continued to have a heated discussion on whether to close the Northern Mystery Lock before.
This issue is very important, and it is related to the strategic direction of Yin Erfalang in the not too short period of time in the future. If you choose to close the Northern Mystery Lock, it means giving up the outer areas of the Levi Forest, and it will also cause damage to the Mystery Lock.
But without the entanglement of the orc tide, Yin Erfalang can focus more on the battle for the ancient fortress newly discovered by Sluvend.
Of course, choosing this direction is not without its hidden dangers. The mastermind behind the orc wave that triggered the orc wave in advance has not yet been found. Maybe there is a back-up plan. If they cause something big in the country, even if they get some benefits from the ancient fortress, they may There is no way to make up for this loss.
If you choose not to close the Northern Mystery Lock, it actually means facing the orc tide head-on, and at the same time increasing efforts to track down the masterminds behind the scenes. However, this also means that the resources and energy that can be invested in the battle for the ancient fortress will be greatly reduced.
This choice is safer and more conservative. Although it will not have too serious consequences, if you cannot profit from the ancient fortress, the strength of other countries will indirectly lead to your own decline.
Ancient fortresses were no different than others. They were likely to store powerful weapons of war inside, which would be enough to change the balance of power between countries.
…
The discussion in the Crown Prince's court continued until the Yin Rusk envoy arrived, but failed to reach a definite result. In this regard, the Lorian Crown Prince decided to meet with the Yin Rusk envoy first, just to calm down the advisers.
Yin Rusk's messenger this time was a middle-aged man with a thick beard. As soon as he entered Lorien's meeting hall, he fell to the ground and cried in broken Elvish:
"Your Majesty Luorian, please save the people of Yin Rusk. This year's orc wave has come ahead of schedule. Yin Rusk lost several elite scouts to determine that this year's number is several times more than in previous years. If it weren't for Yin Erfa Lang's Support, Yin Rusk’s demise is not far away!”
This guy was crying and twisting and squirming on the ground as he crawled towards Lorien's throne. Every ruling advisor in the hall suppressed laughter and turned their heads away.
Luorian took a deep breath and stopped the Yin Rusk envoy from squirming forward with one hand. The invisible force dragged him up from the ground and stood upright. He also cleaned up the ground that was dirty by the opponent. Then he slowly spoke:
"Messenger, don't panic. Yin Rusk is the protectorate of Yin Erfalang. Naturally, Yin Erfalang will not sit idly by. If there is anything else Lord Yin Rusk wants you to tell me, please tell me."
"The Female CEO's Almighty Soldier"
"The orcs are coming fiercely, and Yin Rusk is completely unable to stop them. The lord would like to ask His Majesty Lorien to allow Yin Rusk's people to enter the Levi Forest for temporary refuge."
"Yes, in addition, I will ask Jiagos City to provide you with food. If you want to evacuate, evacuate as soon as possible. Yin Erfalang may close the Northern Mystery Lock. If it is too late, you may have to go alone. Facing the orcs.”
"Closed Mystery Lock?!"
The messenger was stunned for a moment. He knew that the orcs were powerful this time, but he did not expect that they were so powerful that even the elves did not want to confront them head-on. This made him even more anxious.
At this moment, he wished he could fly back to Yin Rusk immediately, not just for the purpose of sending a message. For the purpose of sending a message, even though Yin Rusk's magic was not developed, he would not even have the ability to send a message.
What he was thinking about was his family. In such critical times, he would feel relieved only if he took care of them personally.
So he muttered and looked at King Luorian, but he didn't know how to speak. When Luorian saw this, he smiled slightly and said, "Is there anything else the messenger wants to say?"
"Your Majesty, I want to return to Yinrusk, but I don't know-"
"Want to return to Yinrusk?"
Lorien was stunned for a moment, obviously not expecting that the other party would actually say this. Staying in Elintal would protect him from the danger of orc invasion, but if he went back, he might not be able to evacuate within the Mysterious Locks of Levi Forest in time.
But since the other party is willing to share the difficulties with his people, Luo Ruian is still willing to fulfill his wish.
Speaking of which, after Yin Erfalang experienced the great purge of Arivanda, a group of almost powerless civilians worked hard with each other and gradually developed from the ruins.
Thinking like this, Luo Ruian also made his own decision——
"I'll take you back!"
