"Well, it can be considered a refugee matter." Leon paused: "Speaking of which, you came out at the right time, and I have something to tell you."
"What's the matter?" Angel asked confused.
"Didn't you say before that you could set up an illusion outside Gru Town so that mortals would never be able to find Gru Town?" Leon looked at Angel: "I hope you really set up such an illusion outside Gru Town. "
Angel looked at him carefully and found that Leon's expression was serious and did not seem to be joking.
But a few days ago, Leon thought his suggestion was a joke, and now he was suddenly asked to set up an illusion. Could it be that something had changed these days?
Angel asked about his doubts.
Leon looked around and made sure there was no one else before he nodded and said: "General Meng En died in the battle on the Beiyou Coast. The current situation in Yamei Province is not optimistic."
"General Meng?" Angel was stunned, and the image of a middle-aged man with a beard suddenly flashed in his mind, "Could you be talking about the father of the Allen brothers and sisters?"
Lyon nodded: "Yes, it is Eton Meng. The army he led was originally stationed in the province of Yameh, and it was just now that Yamei maintained peace. But the latest news from Jordan is that he has now died on the front line. , the army has no leader, the spiritual pillar has collapsed, and the subsequent defeat has already appeared. Now, it has been half a month since the news of his death, I am afraid that the frontline war in Yamei Province has already..."
Leon's expression was a little sad. Since he used Morning Dew to establish a friendly relationship with the Munn family, and Angel became a gifted person, the Munn family was very optimistic about the future of the Pat family. Therefore, General Munn expressed his concern for Gru. The town has always been very caring.
Now that Meng En died in battle, Leon was also a little sad.
Upon learning of the news of Meng En's death, Angel suddenly became silent. After a while, he said: "You think Yamei Province will fall, so you want to set up an illusion outside Gru Town?"
"It's not that it will fall, it should have already started to fall." Leon looked solemn.
Angel nodded: "I understand."
After the two talked, they immediately went to Sheriff George's house. Most of the other townspeople had fallen asleep, but the lights in his house were still flickering.
A month and a half later, when he saw George again, Angel could feel the haggard look on George's face.
Even the Jordanian knight on the side had a hint of worry in his eyes.
After Angel came in, he went directly to the Sheriff's Office without any nonsense. There is a landform sand table here, which is a miniature sand table of Gru Town and the surrounding landforms.
Since he wanted to set up an illusion outside Gru Town, Angel naturally needed to understand the specific scope of the illusion, and this sand table was the most intuitive prop.
Because George always worked carefully, the sand table itself was also made by him, and the sand table was often modified.
Just like in the upper left corner of the sand table, there is a group of miniature wooden houses with a khaki circular mark marked with a flag. On the plan below the sand table, the location corresponding to this mark is: the refugee camp.
It can be seen that this was added to the sand table recently.
In addition, Angel discovered that there were several newly built wooden house models in Gru Town, and there were even a few models that had not yet been built, and the materials were placed next to the sand table.
"This is a house built by refugees who recently signed slave status and are willing to stay in Gru Town." It was George who spoke. He shrugged: "However, there are not many refugees who are willing to sign slave status. Most of them still stay in Gru Town. Refugee camp, it is estimated that these refugees will run away as soon as the news from the front line comes..."
Slave status. Angel glanced at Leon, who had his lips tightly closed. It was obvious that this was the method of restraint he wanted.
Angel took in the sand table's landforms into his eyes, and then said to Leon: "Brother, shall you define the scope?"
Leon nodded, holding a piece of chalk. Start drawing circles along the sand table.
While Lyon was drawing a circle, George said with a confused look on his face: "What are you two brothers doing now? Do you have any countermeasures? You have to explain it to me."
Angel told George Lyon's original words. After hearing this, George did not express his position. Instead, the Jordanian knight looked surprised: "Illusion? What is this?"
During the last Moonlight Shower, Jordan was sent to Waterford by George, and George didn't tell him about the changes in Pat's manor when he came back. Therefore, Jordan, like most of the townspeople, is completely confused.
"Illusion is not a thing, but a trick." Angel took this opportunity to popularize the so-called wizard's knowledge. This news even surprised George.
"However, I'm just a wizard apprentice. I don't know any of the spells that can cause the earth to shake with a flick of my hand. I only know a few blinding tricks." Angel said, "But to confuse ordinary people is no problem."
After listening, George suddenly realized. If we can really create an illusion that covers the entire town of Gru, we can avoid war to a certain extent and protect the lives of the townspeople.
However, Jordan said: "If you have this ability, you should be able to help defeat Hailan. Wouldn't this be done once and for all?"
When Jordan said this, George opened his mouth and wanted to say something, but he didn't know what to say. Leon was drawing circles, but he paused at this time.
Angel: "I don't mind saving some people alone. But if a war is affected because of my appearance, this goes against the default rules of the wizarding world."
Jordan wanted to say something else, but George stopped him. Angel's willingness to protect the residents of the town was a matter of affection, but if he was asked to protect a country, George himself actually felt a little inappropriate. After all, we are facing a country. What if something goes wrong with Angel?
Soon, Lyon's area had been delineated.
Angel took a look and found that Lyon's delineation was basically the area where the townspeople usually moved. No matter how far away the mountains and forests were, he didn't delineate them too much.
"When the illusion is set up, outsiders will not be able to enter for the time being. If you want to go out, there is no problem, but I don't recommend that you go out." Angel paused and looked at Lyon: "Are the townspeople going out, family members? Do you need to call the heir back?"
"Everyone is in town, no one is outside except Edgar."
When Edgar was mentioned, everyone couldn't help but sigh. Edgar is the father of little Sam. Little Sam disobeyed the advice and broke into Pat Manor and was killed by the owl watcher. After Edgar found Sam's body the next day, he left Gru Town and disappeared without a trace.
Edgar was a hunter, and most of the game on Angel's table when he was a child was hunted by Edgar.
"Since Edgar has chosen to leave, let's leave him alone. With his hunting skills, he shouldn't have a bad time." Angele paused and said to George: "I will set up the illusion later. , you remember to call all the townspeople tomorrow and ask them not to leave as much as possible."
After Angel left, Leon walked with him outside the town.
Halfway through, Leon asked: "Is there no example of the so-called extraordinary interference in political power in the wizarding world?"
"Yes, and there are many." Angel shrugged: "However, interference in political power is mostly just for manpower. Wizards who are willing to embark on the path of truth will not be immersed in the struggle for power in the mortal world. This is not in line with the wizard's Core values. Of course, if there are benefits to be gained, it doesn’t matter. After all, the default rules are just a concept that everyone obeys subconsciously, rather than forcing you to do so.”
Angel turned to look at Leon: "You want me to stop this war?"
Leon shook his head, "No. I just thought that if Yamei Province really fell, Gru Town would probably be an isolated island in the occupied area. I actually don't like this feeling."
Angel looked at it from Leon's point of view and could understand his thoughts.
After all, Grutown was, in a way, his responsibility.
After setting up the illusion, Angel and Leon returned to the manor. Angel continued to study the art of dreaming, and the manor once again fell into a period of peace.
A week later, reports from the front line came, and the news of General Meng's death spread like wildfire.
The refugee camp in Gru Town lost half of its population that day. Over the next few days, more refugees chose to leave every day.
However, another week later, Yamei Province did not fall as expected, and only a few cities on the edge were destroyed. Because the Golden Bird Empire began to rebound after shrinking for a few months, and gathered a new army to station in Yamei Province.
According to news from Jordan, the army stationed in the province of Yameh this time was personally recruited by the Shannon royal family.
General Meng En fell as a pillar, and the originally sluggish military spirit solidified again when he knew that the royal family was coming in person.
The situation, which was originally a huge defeat, seems to be slowly recovering.
The changes in the war were so unpredictable that even Angel was a little unprepared. However, what surprised him even more was that a few days later, the Shannon royal family who was rumored to be on a personal expedition appeared near Gru Town.
…
During this period, the illusion that Angel set up outside the town of Gru was often touched by people, most of whom were refugees outside the town.
However, these refugees were touched by the illusion, and soon they would return to their original place in confusion. After many attempts to break in, they all gave up entering Gru Town.
But that day, to Angel's surprise, someone successfully walked into his fantasy world.
And appeared in Gru Town.
The first person to notice the visitor was Jordan. Since the illusion was set up outside the town of Gru, his guard job has become easier than before. Standing on the sentry post, he spent most of his time in a daze, thinking about his classmates at the Knight Academy.
Therefore, it was not until everyone came to the guard post and specifically asked the horses to neigh that Jordan suddenly discovered that an outsider had actually entered Gru Town.
He looked at the person who came in surprise. It was a female knight wrapped in golden armor, riding on a white horse, looking quite chic.
"Who are you?"
"My name is Taweil Shannon. I want to meet Viscount Pat. I wonder if you can pass the message through for me."
