Chapter 45: Overture Monthly Pass)
"How did you disappear?" Lucien asked calmly!
Tang Pu turned over the report in his hand to make the final confirmation, and the rustling sound of paper came into Lucien's ears: "The ones monitoring them were a high-level combat mage and two intermediate mages. They never came out after they arrived at a small church west of Rentat yesterday. The high-level mage initially believed that Salder had not cared about the normal continuation of the marginalization of those radical clergy and night watchmen during this period. He still didn't see any of Juliana and Minsk until today. He became a mouse and entered. Who knew that there was no trace inside."
This is the Kingdom of Holm. The number of magicians is countless times that of church personnel, so Tangpu can use advanced mages to monitor them in luxury.
"Did they discover it and deliberately get rid of it?" Lucien thought of another possibility.
Tang Pu knocked on the table: "This possibility is not ruled out, but the probability is not high, because this has been monitored in the past few months. They have not noticed any abnormal behavior, and yesterday was as calm as usual."
"What about the other clergy who were migrated by Sald's marginalization, the Night Watch?" Lucien expanded the scope.
Tang Pu laughed, his voice a little serious: "If they are missing, I will report directly to the Supreme Review Group, which shows that Salder must have problems and the plan must be adjusted. Now they are the two of them confirmed."
Lucien rubbed his brows: "There are twelve days before the action begins, try to find them, but don't attract Salder's attention."
Tang Pu was not disgusted with Lucien's suggestions and reminders. The entire Magic Council members were speculating when he would become a great arcane and join the highest review group. Moreover, his current authority was on the affairs committee, which was the same as several Nine Ring Masters such as Lavendi.
"The radicals are not only a little resentful, but their emotions are relatively stable. The great prophet Salder is really good at bewitching people's hearts." Tang Pu mentioned briefly. As a member of the Affairs Committee, a student of the Storm Lord, a high-level magician who has been tested in faith, he knows about cooperation, but he still does not know the specific action arrangements.
Lucien held the quill in his hand, not sure what strangeness and secrets this matter was hidden, but no matter what, Münster and Julianna were the night watchmen who hated themselves the most, and there were private hatreds in addition to "justice". It is very likely that any means could be used, so he asked Tang Pu to increase his guardianship of Joel's family.
After the communication ended, Lucien looked at the Arcane in front of him and was unable to concentrate for a long time. He was a little impatient. The big action that was about to begin really put too much pressure on anyone who knew. Even if someone like me who is good at keeping calm, when facing unknown dangers and unknown changes, he still felt unbearable to suppress before the storm. Of course, more importantly, he is not alone and does not need to consider other things. He has a lover, a teacher, a student, a friend, and a relative. Once things fail, the result will be terrible.
"Let's just remind the teacher and arrange for him to tell me." Lucien knew that Tompa would report to Fernando, but decided to go to "Thunder Hell".
Just as he was about to leave the office, Lucien saw Chery knocking in, his face a little nervous and melancholy: "Teacher, are you free?"
"What's the matter?" Lucien asked peacefully.
Chery sat timidly on the backrest chair in front of Lucien's desk and stirred his hands together: "Teacher, I have a couple named Jacques. You should know that, right? Have you signed a magic contract with me?"
"I remember he was coming to get the potion that stimulates bloodline?" Lucien nodded.
Chery smiled embarrassedly: "He was talented and had the hope of becoming a knight by himself, but after signing the magic contract, his will could not be greatly enhanced. After several years of hard work, it still couldn't work, so he planned to use the contract and not leave a way out for himself."
"With the contract, he not only has no way out, but also has no hope." Lucien himself found a lover who wanted to be with him for the rest of his life, and he also sympathized with Cheli and the others.
Cheri's face turned red: "So, so I want to ask your teacher for help. I have saved a lot of arcane points in the past few years. My father gave me a lot of Jintal and materials. In addition, Jacques' wealth accumulated through hard work in completing mercenary missions should be able to exchange for the "Blood Origin of High-level Vampire, but I don't have this authority."
"This is a trivial matter, and I have signed a magic contract. I will exchange it for you when I come back later." Lucien said kindly.
Cheri breathed a long sigh of relief. She had a gentle personality and a thin skin. This matter had been wandering in her heart for a long time and she didn't dare to speak. Now she mustered up the courage to ask for a satisfactory reply, so she was naturally excited: "Thank you so much, teacher."
Lucien laughed and said, "I exchanged the origin of blood and prepared to complete the ritual by myself? Speaking of which, Jacques is pretty good. He knows to make money by completing mercenary missions, rather than relying on you blindly."
"This ceremony is not complicated. I'm sorry, please trouble you, teacher. I will go to the mission area to post a mission and ask the magician of the devil or the transformed faction to host it." Chery mentioned Jacques, with a happy and warm face on his face. "He used to be a more exaggerated knight, but now he is much more at ease.
Following Lucien, everyone who came and saw outstanding men came and went. Chery had a new understanding of Jacques before. Fortunately, he changed a lot and his feelings continued.
Before Lucien could speak, Chery praised and complained to Jacques on his own: "His last mercenary mission was very dangerous. He actually investigated a cult. He did not stimulate his bloodline and almost died inside."
"Cult?" Lucien is sensitive to the word.
Chery nodded: "It is said to be a cult, but it actually has a close relationship with the Truth Church. It is an organization established privately by some radical clergy from Stewart. It seems to be worshiping the king of angels and deviating from the teachings of the Lord."
After several years of magical life, her faith was almost gone, but she still used to calling "Lord".
Lucien frowned again: "King of Angels..." What was Salder thinking? He still thought about crossing the Storm Strait in the future and unifying the faith of the church?
Listening to Chery finishing the matter in its original form, Lucien thought for a while and said, "As the church and the council stabilized in the respective control areas of the new alien space, the situation in Holm will definitely become more and more dangerous. You remind your father to prepare as soon as possible, and to cut off what should be split and prevent a total war."
"Well, my father has always been prepared for this, starting from the agreement between the family and the parliament." Cherie didn't think more.
After sending Chery away, Lucien went directly to the 33rd floor of the Arlinge Magic Tower, preparing to go to Thunder Hell through a fixed teleportation array, but the teacher was in the study.
"You're here." Fernando seemed to have known that Lucien would come.
Lucien nodded: "I learned some abnormalities from Tangpu."
"He told me, but there was no other discovery for the time being." Fernando put a map of Rentat's city, "It marked the marginalized locations of the radicals, the areas where different nobles were located, and several parts of Rentat's magic array."
This is a confidential map obtained from Hathaway.
Lucien walked to the teacher and followed the map to find that Salder had indeed marginalized the radicals very much. Starting from the west, the more we went to the southeast of the city, the more we walked to the northeast of the city, the fewer the radical clergy and night watchmen. When we arrived at the aristocratic area and the area where the Ragnarok Cathedral were located, there was no one left. Even Stone's Knights' Territory was switched to the near Lentat Monastery in the northwest of the city, completely waiting for the magical council to take action.
"It feels a bit weird." Lucien looked at the map and said, "It's not strange, even if you use astrology, you can't get the answer."
Fernando also frowned and said, "It will be uneasy if it goes too smoothly. Lucien, at that time, Hercules will deal with the parish of the North Coastal Corridor, Erica will control the Principality of Calais, Vicente will go to the Kingdom of Colet, and the parish of Briana, which has not been won over by Salde, will be personally taken by Brooke and Holt will cooperate."
Hurculi is the "monarch of Qi", another legendary magician in Palmela's cottage, who has a deep control over the Northland. Erica is the "transformation master" of the Wizard House. Historian. Since the headquarters of the Wizard House is located in the Principal of Calais and has a close relationship with the local aristocratic forces, it is most appropriate for her to take action. By the same token, the relationship between the two can be seen from the joint award of the Immortal Throne Award by the Kingdom of Collette and the Pale Hand.
The Silver Moon Song Alliance is headquartered in the Kingdom of Briana, and Brooke takes action by himself. "Silver Moon Scholar" Chelsea Holt cooperates, so there should be no big problem.
"It must be driven away and controlled as soon as possible so that the nobles of these countries can no longer swing, otherwise they all have epic knights. With the Cardinal, the situation will deteriorate quickly." Lucien whispered.
Fernando nodded: "What we need this time is the time difference, the matter of Holm Parish, Hathaway and I fought head-on, Douglas controlled the overall situation in Arlinger, and the other great arcanes and legendary magicians are reserve forces, joining different battlefields at any time."
"At that time, don't stay in Aliner. I will arrange for you to go to the Nexer Palace in the northeast of the city. It is a balanced place where several forces of the magic barrier meet, and it is easy to be opened. If the situation becomes very unfavorable, you will immediately teleport away with Natasha in chaos. Although Aliner is safe, if something goes wrong, it will definitely be the target of the primary blow. You are the mysterious person of fate. Natasha has the sword of truth, and a few people's actions will not be easily locked. You can hide in the depths of the endless ocean and wait for you to become a legendary magician, which is the hope of the revival of the parliament."
"This is the 'Night Shuttle, Scroll, who has something to do with the Dark Council, from a vampire prince, helps you break the space anchor and space barrier blockade."
Listening to the teacher's worst arrangement for the situation, Lucien suddenly felt the atmosphere around him becoming depressed and solidified.
