A rat in panic ran into the leg of a stool and was pinned down by the cat's claws. After whining a little, the beautiful but hungry hunter quietly climbed up the rafter with his dinner. Lind ignored the noises and focused on the reward from the gardener.
The very beginning was news about the Oath Keepers Alliance. The Gulf War developed as everyone expected. After the Blood Race terminated the contract, the Alliance quickly proved to the mysterious realm that Prince Drablay and his race were of no importance to the Alliance. In Lind's view, these alien races from the alliance took this opportunity to show their alchemical results to the mysterious realm. Tomorrow he has to order the wizards to speed up the transportation of the wreckage of the alchemy warship.
These chores can be left to the help of local adventurers without his special attention. At present, the number of mysterious creatures in Knight's Bay is increasing sharply, and more people are running to join the victor's camp. The originally dangerous Knight's Bay has suddenly become the most popular place in the mysterious field - all kinds of mercenary groups, warmongers, pirates and armed chambers of commerce are all here. He quietly put out his tentacles and came to the lighthouse town closest to the battlefield to explore, looking for opportunities to gain benefits. But no matter what their intentions are, the momentum of the Oath Keepers Alliance is almost as strong as that of the Holy Radiance Council. Even the Eastman people are absurdly spreading it around, as if the sky tower above their heads does not exist.
Even these guys have the guts to take advantage of it, but the Silent School, one of the mysterious fulcrums, must stand still in order to observe the battle situation. Linde couldn't imagine that Mr. "Secret Box" or "Tattoo" would let the opportunity slip away from his eyes. After all, this was a woman who viewed leading an army into war as a parade through the streets. The wizards do not seek merit but no fault, even if the ratio of risks they face now to the possible returns is enough to make even the most cautious investors excited. After the war, he thought angrily, people would think of the school as a second Croita.
Maybe it was the tower she was afraid of. Lind threw the paper into the candlelight. The town of Lighthouse has power lines and a semi-abandoned bus track near the sea, making the lamp look suspicious. The fact that the White Envoy is still alive will sound alarm bells for most people who are ready to make a move. At least there won't be any more mysterious fulcrums that want to intervene, such as the Holy Knights of the Holy Council of Radiance. Although there is no evidence that they will return to Eastman again, Lind believes that where there are demons, there will be madmen who worship Lucia...both of which will interfere with the search plans of the wizards of the school. Thinking about it this way, Bai Zhishi's survival is considered good news.
Followed by some mediocre reports. Lind flipped the paper and browsed the movements of the Faf Tanner envoy, the situation in the lower reaches of the Golden Bird River, the personnel transfer of the Gaia Church, and the scattered material distribution list. The Mist Elves are indifferent to the civil war of the Oath Keepers Alliance, as they have always been; the Church is somewhat trivial. The things that a group of anti-wizard factions are provoking are things like the archbishop and the reconstruction of churches in disaster areas. Those idiots still refuse to admit the existence of the truth. It doesn’t matter if the news about them is not mentioned. Anyway, the ascetic monks will deal with the internal problems. Lord Jizuk of the school once teased him to try to become the archbishop of Gaia after he decided to cross the path of death in his later years, but Lind declined politely.
The final supplies are the key. Linde led four-fifths of the sect wizards in the search team to Knight's Cove, and since then the ladder transportation in Six Fingers Castle has been terminated. Previously, he thought it was the tower messenger who interfered with the Eastman Kingdom's support for violating the vassal treaty, but when the Six Finger Fort collapsed, the demon hiding in the Garden of Flowing Water was exposed to everyone.
He would have known that a mortal like Isbon Glonion would die due to stupidity, and that the entire Court of Flowing Waters might be buried with him. This viscount should also rest in peace. Eastman isn't worth the school's investment, and Lind wonders how Shania will feel about it at Dragon's Den.
So he flipped the reply letter at the bottom onto a list of dozens. The sealing wax required special witchcraft to melt. Linde resignedly identified the patterns on it and used his fingernails to pick out a few of the mysterious lines. He muttered a magic spell, and a cluster of sparks rose up, and the wax block gradually twisted under the attack of heat. Then the color disappeared and became transparent, as if it had never appeared before, saving the trouble of handling...
...But a kind of dissatisfaction quickly accumulated to its peak after he read the content. Shania Ravenas's order was elegantly worded but frustrated. She hoped that the ascetics and wizards in Knight's Bay could handle the material issues themselves, and stated bluntly that there was no possibility of repairing the kingdom's ladder, and the supplies at the school's headquarters were also limited. needs time. On the next page, she turned around and ordered Linde to transport the wreckage of the "Blackheart" battleship (the written language she used was 'the legitimate gains of the search team in fulfilling the diplomatic contract with Eastman') as quickly as possible back to the Iron Claw. City, lest the Oath Keepers deal with the vampires coming back for the wizards. At this time she was actually so bold.
If Shania thought that the Oath Keepers Alliance would find Lind Punabag, a high-level wizard, and completely distance themselves from the relationship with the team leader, then she had made a wrong calculation. Linde continued to read, wanting to see what she would do to make him willing to share the risk with her.
It was as expected. A cautious woman like Shania didn't even dare to mention the Alliance's warships in private letters. She would never leave anyone with any clues - in other words, none. She praised his leadership and strict discipline under his command, praised him for his stability and composure in not rashly intervening in the Gulf War, and promised to request recognition from the school for his contribution to the important task of retrieving the Holy Scriptures. When it came to commendation, he forced himself to read the next two lines, but he soon regretted this decision. They are all empty promises. I might as well join the team of adventurers fighting vampires.
Lind threw the rest of the list into the fire, there was no need for him to read any further. Wizards must fend for themselves and complete their tasks. That was all the message his superiors conveyed to him. It was as if she regarded them as mortal canvases, capable of moving the ship simply by drinking the north wind. Humph, it doesn’t take much effort to instruct people anyway.
Although there is no evidence, Linde firmly believes that Shania Ravenas used some special means to obtain the resources to advance to the Sky Realm. If he wasn't as stubborn as he seemed, Ronald Zachary might have fallen in love with her. Would that make our situation any better? But the White Envoy has returned to Iron Claw City, and no matter how seductive the bitch is, she has no chance to play. The madman had nearly killed the holy Priestess Lucia.
What's the use of complaining? He had to come up with a charter no matter what. The Church of Gaia is currently busy with the reconstruction of the disaster area and the internal mess, and it is impossible to obtain support; the local lords still need to rely on his protection, but if DeWitt realizes that the wizards of the school actually have to let mortals provide assistance, I am afraid that the Earl will Linde's power was viewed as a bargaining chip. He couldn't bear this.
But if there is really no other way, then this is the only way to do it. The number of ascetics who entered Eastman was far more than that of the mercenary group. Except for the nobles, almost no one could afford their daily material consumption... He racked his brains and looked for the possibility of self-reliance. I'd rather lead a team in the Gulf War, like a mercenary group. This idea suddenly came to him and he was firmly grasped: Can wizards take over the Adventurer Bar? Now that most adventurers have poured into the battlefield, Iron Dragon Port in Beacon Town was ordered to be closed for use, but these people were driven away. There is a vacancy for adventurers in the town, but the troubles will never be less. If the wizard can replace the adventurers, it may not be impossible to survive the time for backup to arrive.
The flames ran out of fuel and went out. Lind leaned back in his chair tiredly. Instructing the wizards of the school to do the menial work of adventurers will surely make many people complain. Besides, he has to ensure that he has enough manpower to track down the whereabouts of the holy book. The Tower Witch made a lot of noise in Tide Sound Castle last night. Linde was worried all day long, but in the end the matter did not reach the worst point.
The assassins he sent out were all dead, and the witch caught no one alive.
Linde was convinced that the Holy Code was in Tide Sound Castle, the lord's castle in Knight's Bay, and the search was inevitable. To him, the Earl's bedroom was nothing. As long as he declared that he would never leave Beacon Town, DeWitt Hearn would definitely stay with him for the sake of his own life. His extra concern was only because it was the witch's temporary residence. If we conduct a direct search, we can only hope that she will not be interested in a brand new sacred book. Lind is not willing to bet on her mood. He must deal with this "guard" who accidentally hit him.
The Holy Scripture is the ultimate goal, he thought, and all sacrifices made for this are necessary. Shania misjudged me. Her praise was for Lynd Punabag on the surface, not for an ambitious man who sent his subordinates to die at Wavesound Keep in an attempt to start a war.
Thinking of it this way, the common goal between me and the devil still exists. Lind closed his eyes and crossed his legs on the edge of the table. But he didn't have the ability to kill the Witch of Destiny, he just needed to let her leave the castle.
Playing tricks under the nose of the Witch of Destiny is extremely challenging. As long as she peeks into the "past", all her plans will be revealed. The attack by the demon society inadvertently provided cover for his plan. As long as Helen Dorothea regarded this attack as another attempt by the demon, she would not deliberately seek to verify the identity of these assassins. Destiny is the supreme mysterious message, but it will not take the initiative to get into the minds of peepers. I'm still safe.
In any case, after paying the expected sacrifice, his plan succeeded. The Witch of Destiny left Tide Sound Castle and came to Beacon Town. Next, he had to deal with this woman on his own. woman! Especially those in high positions, with extraordinary beauty and sharp minds, Linde has always had a bad impression of them, because most people will not use these qualities for good purposes. Just wait and see.
