"No wonder there are many strong men in this world who like to build families, just to use their own strength to leave enough foundation and protect their descendants as long as possible..." Heras sighed,
The reason why the Riolan magic family has the title of marquis is because the Quicksand Empire has a great influence on the family ancestors.
, the posthumous title of the third-level legendary mage - 'Hand of Binding' Ilibas. Although the Quicksand Empire had not been established when Ilibas died, the empire still posthumously granted him the title of Marquis.
To commemorate the achievements of this legendary mage, and also to win over the descendants of Leolan who had already taken root in the family territory at that time.
The title of Marquis has brought a lot of convenience and benefits to the descendants of the Riolan family. This is the most intuitive manifestation of the power of the ancestors that has bequeathed to the descendants.
Heras took one last look around this simple stone room, and then left here without any regrets. He would use his own strength to build a home, and it would definitely not be this simple stone house or a narrow cockpit.
After that, he completed the procedures for leaving the Great Temple of Eternal Night as quickly as possible. However, after stepping out of the temple gate, it was already dawn, so Heras did not delay any more and went straight to General Uando's station.
The ancient city of Askalan was built on an island in the middle of a lake in the center of a giant river valley. It was not only a teleportation hub, but also an important military location. The garrison's fortress camp was set up next to a military dock on the south bank of the island in the middle of the lake.
The fortress outside Askaran City stands like a green hill on the south bank of the island in the middle of the lake. Although the building is designed to be simple and practical, it still unconsciously brings the elf's unique elegance and classical style. This building
The entire body of the military fortress is made of denser magic lines, of better quality, and is made of twice as thick arcane stone. It is integrated with the arcane city wall of the ancient city, with more than one connection point, which makes it easier to mobilize troops quickly during wartime.
Due to the obstruction of the arcane city wall, it seemed that winter could not be felt in this shady ancient elven city. As soon as Heras left the city, the cold and wet winter wind from the south mixed with fallen leaves hit him.
However, except for the northernmost part of the Snow Kingdom, there is no snow in other areas of the Western Continent in winter, so this kind of weather is limited no matter how cold it is. At least for Heras, there is no discomfort.
Soon he walked to the front of the hill-like garrison fortress, where there was already a team of elite guards ready to go. After greeting General Uando's guard captain Charol from a distance, Heras
He walked over calmly. He had visited the general once before, and the guard captain knew him.
"The general has agreed for you to follow us into the land of disputes, but now he is discussing matters in the fortress. You must wait, Mr. Scholar." The guard captain Charol's rigid face did not move at all, and then he squeezed out a sentence very stiffly.
Half of these most elite bodyguards are air cavalry, and they are combing the wings of their mounts. The Storm Horned Eagles that serve as elite mounts are at least high-level monsters. With such a group of bodyguards, they are enough to run rampant.
A land of strife...
Heras nodded without saying anything. He knew that the fate of these people would not be very good. As for whether to give a few hints to General Uando, Heras had never had such an idea, because it would undoubtedly
Implicated all the way to Glenarya.
The reason why he has a friendship with General Uando is that he deliberately saved Usuliga's life with a utilitarian purpose, and Glalenya is his beloved wife. There is no need to consider which is more important.
In the meeting hall reinforced with thick arcane walls in the ancient city's military fortress, an older soldier with brown hair and brown eyes and a resolute face was making arrangements for the expedition. Among the generals standing below him, there was a bald Uondo.
At this time, several generals were listening to the arrangements of the older soldiers without saying a word.
This older soldier with brown hair and brown eyes is the legendary knight Liaton, the garrison marshal of Askaran City. He has always had a bad relationship with the city lord, the legendary mage Saliv.
In people's eyes, many of Saliv's governance plans deviate too far from tradition, and as the chief administrator of the city, this legendary mage should have jurisdiction over all institutions established by the Magic Council in the territory under its rule, but the city lord is not convinced.
The Magic Council does what they say, which is simply outrageous!
When Sarifu was still a magician, he served as the deputy minister of the battle mage department of the Elf Empire Magic Council, assisting the minister in managing the empire's mage legion. Due to his background, when he was promoted to a legendary mage, many high-level officials
They all strongly opposed Emperor Edralan's transfer of him as the administrator and regional governor of Askaran, because this would undoubtedly strengthen the political influence of the Magical Council in the region.
However, due to the importance of the Elf Emperor, Saliv finally took this position. Although the south of the empire has always been a magic-prone area, Marshal Liaton, as a southern Elf, has no resistance to magic, but Saliv
Many of Lifu's plans involve ji
The bottom line of the elves' tradition, such as the delusional attempt to establish a research institute for magic machines and the exploitation of various resources to destroy the natural ecology! In Salifu's words, the most developed magical civilization should walk in the twisted void.
Time, a country that does not have this goal is not worthy of learning magic!
This concept of Saliv was instilled by their president Erica. Ever since Erica became a professor at the Pillar of the Void, she has done her best to brainwash the members of the Elf Empire Magic Council!
As a result, the board's behavior became increasingly unorthodox.
But fortunately, these plans have not been implemented yet. It seems that the city lord still knows the importance. If once implemented, he will step down tomorrow amid a strong backlash...
"Everyone, I know you all have a lot of objections to the Magic Council, and so do I, but this expedition is related to the safety of the empire, and that elemental magic dragon must not be allowed to enter the territory of the empire! This is not only an order from His Majesty
! It is also the mission of soldiers!" Marshal Liaton said in a loud voice that did not sound like an elf: "At this time, we must let go of our prejudices and try our best to cooperate with the Magic Council. These mages are the best at interception!"
"In order to avoid disturbing the people, we set off in batches. Uangdo, you are responsible for deploying the troops here." Marshal Liaton pointed to the road map of the disputed land behind him and said: "The situation you are responsible for needs to be dealt with is more complicated.
So you go ahead and set off today!"
"My most elite personal guards are all ready to go. Marshal, they can set off at any time." General Uangdo heard this and replied seriously.
Then the marshal assigned the locations where the other generals would set up ambushes one by one, and finally said: "The soldiers sent are not only my subordinates! There are also Marshal Stimana's troops. By then that damn dragon will fall into the mage
You must immediately block their trap with all your strength and delay it at all costs so that the mages can make the final fatal attack!"
"Why do you and Marshal Stimana's elite troops follow the mage army? Those mages should be cooperating with us." A general heard this and said a little puzzled. This does not conform to the conventional tactical arrangement.
...
"This is your Majesty's order, we just have to carry it out!" Marshal Liaton roared upon hearing this, causing the general who asked the question to take a step back.
"Only two marshals have been recruited this time, but the Magic Council has mobilized most of the high-end forces, so the mages are the main interceptors this time. Do your best to protect them." After Marshal Liaton finished his roar,
He continued expressionlessly. To be honest, the marshal was very unhappy to be asked to protect Salifu, a deviant bastard, but no matter how unhappy he was, he had to perform his duties as a soldier.
Thinking of this, Liaton was also a little puzzled. Logically speaking, since the interception location was in the Land of Disputes, the first thing to be recruited should be the troops stationed in the Northern Evernight Forest. However, considering that most of the generals in the Northern Forest preferred Drew.
Elder Yi, it is reasonable for Your Majesty to recruit soldiers from the southern army to cooperate with the mage.
What makes Liaton wonder is that he and Stimana are the two marshals with the worst relationship with the Magic Council among the troops garrisoned in the south. Why were they recruited to cooperate with the mages in this operation?
However, he did not have any doubts about the order itself, because the Magic Council, which had always been cautious, actually used most of its high-end power this time. This proactive attitude was even highly appreciated by many generals in the north who were anti-mage.
After receiving the order, General Uando immediately performed a standard military salute and walked out of the fortress' meeting hall alone. As the most valued general under Liaton, he has always been the vanguard of the marshal.
!
Since there was only one enemy this time, and it was an extremely powerful elemental lord whose power level could reach the sixth level of legend! So they only mobilized the most elite officers in the army to form the team. First of all, they could come and go.
In addition, it can also avoid the wasted sacrifice of many middle and low-level soldiers. After all, although many soldiers are indispensable in a large-scale all-out war, they cannot even make effective attacks against high-end forces, so it is not necessary to bring them with them.
burden.
In addition to his own team of personal guards, General Uangdo also selected many garrison officers from the garrison of the fortress. They are the soldiers who he values the most, and they are also the people whose behavior is most to his taste. That is,
It is said that it is a relatively conservative power component in the southern spirits...
Including his own personal guards, all those who follow the general on the expedition are high-level! Not only the air cavalry, but also the ground cavalry and shooters are all high-level soldiers! This can also show the foundation of an empire, as long as
It is a country with a stable political power, and the army usually has most of the country’s strongest bloodline members! (To be continued.)
