Chapter 271 Honorary Vice President of the Magicians Guild
With Vattel's full efforts, reports of rampant orc activities on the northeastern border of the kingdom have suddenly increased recently. [] There are several warnings of orc invasion every day, and from time to time, villages on the border are attacked by orcs, and all the villagers are slaughtered.
report, as for those who died in the massacre of wandering orcs
There are countless caravans under the knife. The most exaggerated thing is that once, even the city of Karachi was besieged by hundreds of orcs. If these green-skinned monsters did not have heavy siege machinery, Karachi city would probably be attacked by them.
Even if it is breached, nearly 10,000 residents in the city will not escape the fate of being massacred.
In short, the orcs, who were originally just a scabies problem on the northeastern border of the kingdom, suddenly became a serious threat to the entire northeastern region of the kingdom. The military issued warnings to Alonso III one after another, indicating that if the orcs were not eliminated as soon as possible, these guys were likely to penetrate deep into the kingdom.
In the hinterland, it will cause serious losses to the entire country and may even shake the foundation of the kingdom.
The invasion of orcs has happened before. At that time, several green-skinned monsters penetrated into the richest areas of the continent and almost destroyed the entire human civilization. As the supreme ruler of the Kingdom of Thorne, Alonso III certainly would not take this matter lightly.
Immediately ordered the military department to do its best to deal with the matter.
Wattle naturally obeyed the king's order happily, but problems also arose. The kingdom has a large number of troops guarding the Linton Pass to guard against the undead army. Naturally, these troops cannot be mobilized; and the southern border of the kingdom has not been peaceful recently.
Often with a few people from the south
There is friction in a country. It is said that the atmosphere there is already very tense and a war may break out at any time. The military has sent most of the troops it can mobilize there. So in the face of the orcs causing chaos in the northeast, the dignified Kingdom of Thorne actually arrived.
where soldiers are available.
However, the problem of orcs must be solved. According to the laws of the kingdom, when the kingdom maintains the security of a certain place, the local lord should bear this responsibility. According to the military report, the main areas of activity of the orcs are in Kent County and
Terry County. Currently, there is no lord in Terry County, so the task of exterminating the orcs naturally falls on Roger.
The Military Ministry quickly reported this proposal to Alonso III. At this time, it involved the security of the kingdom, and it was done in full accordance with the law. Neither the King nor the Duke of Hamilton raised any objections. So the Military Ministry immediately drafted an order for the Military Ministry to
One of the ministers, Earl Farrell, went to Kent Town with a detachment of guards to deliver the order.
In the aristocratic circle of Mandos City, the reputation of Earl Farrell is not very good. He is only a distant relative of the old Earl, and it turns out that he has no inheritance rights. The strange thing is that shortly after the old Earl died, his
His son also died in a hunting accident. It is said that the earl's son accidentally shot himself with a crossbow, and when he was found he was already a corpse.
As a result, the title of earl became the target of competition among several of his distant relatives. Farrell was originally the least promising one, but his mind was more flexible than those of his other relatives. As soon as he arrived in the capital, he went to visit the Minister of War, Vattel.
I don’t know what agreement was reached between the two. In short, Walter played a great role in Farrell’s fight for the title, helping him stand out from several relatives and successfully obtain the title. Farrell also joined the military.
He soon became Vatter's loyal subordinate.
Farrell has never received any aristocratic education, nor has he attended a knight school for a day. He is vulgar, but he is greedy, lustful and thinks he is great. He especially likes to play with beautiful women, and he has raped countless civilian women.
In the aristocratic circles of the capital, he has always been nicknamed "nouveau riche", "Vettel's loyal lackey", "shameful whore" and so on.
Farrell was sitting in a luxury carriage, chatting about the monotonous scenery outside. To be honest, he was unwilling to leave the bustling capital and go to the remote Kent Town to convey some orders. And Farrell's trip was not just about conveying orders.
The order was so simple. He had to stay in Kent Town for a while to supervise Baron Roger Lee in completing the mission of exterminating the orcs. The thought of leaving behind the many beauties and the life of debauchery in the capital and living in a border town for a few months
, Farrell was unhappy.
However, this was an arrangement arranged by Marquis Vattel, and Farrell could only accept it. Before Farrell left the capital, Vattel paid special attention to him. In addition to performing military tasks, Farrell's trip to Kent was more importantly to give Luo
Jay causes trouble. For example, he makes Kent Town panic, or angers Roger himself so that he makes wrong decisions when fighting the orcs, etc. These are the real purposes of Farrell's trip.
"It's not good for this Roger to offend anyone. He actually dares to go against Lord Wattle. He is really asking for death!" Farrell licked his fat lips and thought to himself: "I wonder if there are any beautiful women in Kent Town. If not,
If so...the past few months will be difficult!"
Just as Farrell was gearing up to go to Kent Town to cause trouble for Roger, Roger was writing furiously on a piece of parchment. A man dressed as a magician was sitting opposite him, although his face was expressionless.
, but his eyes flashed with surprise.
This magician is quite old, with four gold strips embroidered on his sleeves. He is actually a high-level magician. He was sent by the Magician's Guild to confer the title of Scholar and Honorary Vice-President to Roger, and he also brought a few people along with him.
A scroll written in the ancient Elvish language was asked to be translated by Roger.
Roger and Anna had been exchanging letters, and they naturally knew that the bigwigs in the capital were making a fuss over the Wood family, so the Magician's Guild announced their decision at this time, which was somewhat of a sign of gratitude.
Being able to be close to the big tree of the Magic Guild was something Roger dreamed of, so he accepted the favor at that time. However, there is no free lunch in any world. Since Roger accepted the title of the Magic Guild,
, then it’s time to contribute to the Magician’s Guild. So Roger has been translating the ancient Elvish language for the past two days, and the dignified lord has almost become a full-time translator.
"It's finally done." After Roger wrote the last letter, he breathed a long sigh of relief and said, "Master Copperfield, these scrolls have been translated."
"Thank you for your hard work." The senior magician nodded slightly to Roger and said: "With your accurate translation, we will be able to decipher its meaning soon. Thank you very much!"
Roger smiled and said: "Master, what are you talking about? Since I am also a member of the Magician Union, I should do something for the union."
To be honest, at first Copperfield was a little disdainful of this young lord, and felt that the union gave him such a high honor was a bit too much. However, after witnessing Roger so skillfully translating the ancient Elvish language, the magician became more convinced about this.
The young man also had a little more admiration. At this time, he heard Roger's words.
As a member of the Magician's Guild, he nodded with satisfaction and said: "Now that the things here have been completed, I have to go back to the Guild. If anyone dares to embarrass you in the future, they will go against the entire Magician's Guild.
Don't be polite to such a guy, just punish him severely!"
