Unlike the mainland, the mage lords of Seran Island do not take care of the daily government affairs in the territory. Their more important responsibility is to ensure the normal operation of the magic network, especially sitting at the fulcrum tower to support the backbone of the magic network around the island. [Section visit:. . Copy URL to visit But as far as Dover City is concerned, it is not only the case with Lord Desires, but also the city lord Claude. He 'handed over' all matters to the three chief officials of the Municipal Department. Anyway, in the past five hundred years, there has never been a war inside or outside Seran. All the city lord's palace encountered were boring and trivial matters, which could be dealt with as usual. Lord¡¯s Mansion, Glass ¡®Flower¡¯ Hall. The Lord of Dover City, Claude, the sixth-ringed ice magician, is one year younger than Desires, so he can be considered young and promising. In fact, the two of them were childhood sweethearts and grew up together in Sindvall City. They just chose different teachers and thus embarked on two different paths. "Have you received the mainland war report for January?" Claude asked lazily. This handsome Lord of Dover has long brown-gold hair and a pair of azure blue s eyes. "Not yet." Desires shook her head slightly and ordered the 'waiter' and 'maid' to serve tea. Although I don't want to see this guy, since he has broken through his own "mirror maze", he should treat him with courtesy. "Next Monday, my new ship 'Iceberg Beauty' will be launched for trial. If you are willing to honor and attend, I will tell you everything, how about it?" Claude put forward his own conditions. "Don't even think about it." Desires flatly refused. Just by hearing the name, she knew what kind of virtue this ship was. "Oh, forget it," was the expected answer. Claude sighed and replied pretending to be aggrieved, "You must know that no matter how unfeeling you are, I will tell you." "If nothing happens, you can go back. Let's see the guests off." Desires' face turned cold, she put the tea cup on the table and gave the order to expel the guests. "Don't." Claude hurriedly raised his hand to let the 'maid' go out, and then whispered, "On the night of the first snow, changes occurred in the Hersius Valley, and the north and south of the continent were once again isolated. The northern land. Dragon Knight David They usurped the throne and became the king, but the Principality of Delano and the Principality of Holy Jonas were the leaders. Snow Hell Icefield, Iron Wall Pass and other places declared independence one after another and broke away from the rule of the Kingdom of Snowton" "As expected," Desires. He commented calmly, "After the intelligence came in in December last year, I knew that the situation in the mainland would be in chaos. Even if the information was blocked again, there would be no news that King Nachini was still alive. Will spread back to the north. At that time, how could Jonas not take advantage of the situation, and war zones such as Tiebikuan will definitely have a wait-and-see attitude But the leader is actually Delano? " "Asia Delano? , the little cousin of the Lion King, she holds the purple-patterned jade slip that founded the country, which can be regarded as legitimate." Claude poured some tea from the cup and sketched it on the table, "Of course, these are not. It's important, anyone with a discerning eye can see it. David is just a decoration, and the "Star Caller" Vilano is the founder of the entire northern pattern. "What is he doing?" Desires became more serious. . "He built a lot of construction projects around the Norman city and devoted all the efforts of the country to build nine magic towers," Claude replied seriously. "Currently, there are only three or four floors. But according to my estimation, it will eventually reach seven floors. Even the height of eight floors. (')" "Nine towers as pillars and the dome of stars?" Desires exclaimed, "What a big move from Bila Nuo." "Collude with Buada or even the 'Fortress of Sorrow'. , Subverting the rule of the Lion King is the real big deal," Claude shook his head. "Otherwise, how could he empty out the Snowton treasury, gather hundreds of thousands of people, build towers, and transform the Norman city? " " Could it be that he wants to build a magic city?" Desires smiled slightly and asked, "What about the south?" "The Wraith Army sent troops from the 'Fortress of Sorrow' and pursued the Lion King all the way to the city of Severa. , now, with the St. Imas River as the center, the three parties are confronting each other, and the war is about to break out while the Buyada Empire is advancing with great success, and its troops are directed towards the city of Mahatma. However, when Settian's heavy troops stationed in the north move south, "There will definitely be a fierce battle between the two sides" "Who are you optimistic about?" Desires asked. "Buada, don't forget, the 'Tower of Wind' has fallen into their hands. It can take as little as three months or as long as six months. Fadreva can be promoted to a legend. How can Settian be promoted?" Claude drew a line on the table and analyzed, "So far, Buyada has only mobilized half of its troops, firstly because the Battle of Saint Imas has not yet broken out, and secondly because it is waiting for Fadreva to come out after his success. "One more thing, determine the attitude of the forest kingdom." Desires added. Buyada's western border borders Moonsong Forest. If the lowland elves take advantage of it,If you invest too much, you will lose more than you gain. "Speaking of the elves, the Lord of the Green Tower is really patient and has not taken action so far." Claude drew a semicircle. "On the other hand, the Torm Federation is already in chaos and has business with us. Among the "Shanghai Flowers" who came and went, they met with several other major business lords, but the first family sent Luo Meng to sit on the mountain and watch the tigers fight, and made a lot of war fortune. " "Those who just watch the changes are all. Just waiting for the opportunity," Desires said softly. "Including us?" Claude looked at her with a smile. "It's you, the returnists of the Nine Rings Council," Desires shook her head firmly, "I always believe that there is no need for Seran to 'meddle' in the war situation on the mainland. This vast blue sea has already separated us from the mainland. Isolated and divided into two worlds. "But on the day of disaster, didn't you see the destruction of all the stars?" Claude raised his tone, "In Donadoni. In the prophecy, evil forces will destroy the entire world, and Seran Island will not be spared!" "I don't believe what that madman said," Desires said coldly. "Then why did you escort his relics to Sindvall?" Claude recited the phrase "water condenses into ice" softly, and the tea on the table condensed like frost, like the veins of mountains and rivers. "Are you in charge?" Desires asked unreasonably. "Oh?" Claude said with a playful smile, "Is there really some kind of truth hidden in it?" Desires did not answer, but just cast a "cutting force field" to cut the ice flowers on the table. Shovel away. "As one of the thirty-six members of the Nine Rings Council, I personally hope that you can stand on our side." Claude stood up and made an invitation gesture, "After a thousand years, it's time for us to go back." "I won't send it off." Desires waved her sleeves and walked away, leaving only his slim back. ? ****** ? Where there are people, there are factions. Thousands of years ago. While the radical faction among the mages was still fighting fiercely with the Holy See of Light, the moderate faction secretly compromised with the enemy and fled to Seran Island, thousands of miles away. Thousands of years later, the returnists are becoming more and more powerful. They are eager to return to their homeland and reconquer that vast continent. Others are firmly opposed. They think Seran is good enough, so why should he be greedy? Be content with the status quo. Or forge ahead, Desires chooses the former, and Claude chooses the latter. The prophecy of Donadoni, Ranaya¡¯s crazy teacher, spread widely because it conforms to the wishes of the Returnists. However, those who are content with the status quo still account for the majority, including the great "Arcane Hand", Keltzman. But as the older generation passed away and the young masters came to power, the balance of power in the Nine Rings Council began to change. Change is bound to happen. Of course, Allegri, who was still struggling in the dock area, knew nothing about all this. He couldn't even spare time to restore his magic power, because the pressure of life was too great. "You can live here for now," Allegri said back in the low shanty town. "Brother Wayne introduced me. The original owners are an old couple. Their son has just been promoted to the Fourth Ring Road and has taken them to Baicheng District. They don't care about the money, so the rent is cheap." "Okay." Beverly nodded. nodded. Taking advantage of the lunch break, Allegri helped her move. After all, he was born as a coolie, and the two big packages were just like playing. The heavy furniture was moved around, and Beverly was asked to make the small furnishings herself. She would have to gradually adapt to this kind of physical work. "You are really strong." Beverly praised. After leaving Copper Compass, she became much clearer and her tone was not as mean as before. Feeling that there was something in his words, Allegri smiled awkwardly. In a shanty town. This wooden house with a yard is already considered a luxury house, but most people are not willing to pay the monthly rent of ten silver coins, so it remains vacant until today. "I have to go." After a while, it seemed that the time was almost up, Allegri said. "Uh, um" Being alone here, Beverly seemed a little scared. "Simba, you stay." After thinking about it, Allegri ordered the big dog. After he gets off work, he can go talk to Zenis and then take the big dog back. Watching him go out, Beverly touched Simba's back and started to clean up the room. And Allegri called Wayne, who lived nearby, and walked to the dock together. "Brother, when will you move here?" Wayne asked casually on the way. "Huh?" Allegri was stunned for a moment, and then he realized that the other party had misunderstood him and Beverly.??relationship. "Just a friend, not what you think," he shrugged and explained, "But I have to ask my brother to take care of me more often." "It should, it should." Look at his face , Wayne obviously didn't believe it. By the standards of the shanty town, Beverly is already pretty, and with at least one coolie, it is more than enough. Allegri could only shake his head and smile bitterly. If Dios and Irlo knew about this, they would definitely laugh at it. "By the way," Wayne thought of something again, "If you don't move here, it might not be safe for her to live here alone." "Yes." Allegri sighed, frowning and thinking. The public security in the shanty town has always been bad. If it were not to avoid those prostitutes, he would not have made such a move. And keeping the big dog Simba can only embolden Beverly, but it will not have much effect. ? ****** But this annoying problem will be solved in the evening. After get off work, Allegri just walked to the door of the pub when he saw a confused girl wandering around. "Lanaya?" He called tentatively. "Mr. Egg?" The girl recognized him, with an expression of surprise on her face. However, his sullen look made Ranaya a little confused, "You, what are you" "I just came back from work," Allegri approached and asked with a smile, "You are looking for Bev "Li?" "Yes, I remember she said she lived here, but after asking about it, the waiter said she had just moved away." Lanaya replied. "You come with me." Allegri waved, and while leading the way, he wiped the dust from his face with a towel. "Where did she go?" The girl picked up a bag of luggage from the ground and followed her with difficulty. "Let me do it," Allegri took it and asked in confusion, "Why did you come here suddenly?" "I dropped out of school." Lanaya replied softly. "What?" Allegri was slightly surprised. On Seran Island, mage students have the right to attend free classes and receive a fixed monthly allowance. However, if they drop out of school voluntarily, they will have to work hard on their own. "I have already learned what I need to learn," Lanaya explained calmly, "What's more, under the instruction of some people, I can only receive a few silver coins every month. If this continues, I can only 'hide around'. "It's hard to make any progress until you die." It seemed that she had already planned it, but it was not until Aubrey's incident that she finally made up her mind. Allegri thought to himself that no matter what, the girl's courage to make a decision is admirable. After all, she is only sixteen or seventeen years old. "Beverly, why did you move out?" Lanaya hesitated for a moment, then asked. "She doesn't want to do that kind of business anymore." Allegri replied casually. "You know her" Lanaya was a little embarrassed to say, "Then how did you 'friend', 'friend' her." "I'm sorry, I lied to you," Allegri whispered. She replied, "Actually, I'm not her boyfriend, I'm just her neighbor across the door." "That's it." Lanaya nodded. She could understand that her sister wanted to find an excuse to convince herself to accept the girl. money. "Also, I am not an alchemist. Otherwise, how could I live in the Copper Compass?" Allegri continued. "What's your profession, sir?" Lanaya was very polite to Allegri. "Coolie, I'm carrying the bag on the dock." Allegri raised the luggage in his hand. "To be honest, it doesn't really look like it." The girl looked at him seriously and shook her head. This should be regarded as a compliment. Allegri smiled and asked, "By the way, what are your plans in the future?" "First think of a way to make some money to support the family." Lanaya's answer was very simple, No matter what, she had to settle her sister first. While talking, the two of them walked through the pier, facing the blowing sea breeze, and walked towards the shantytown on the side of the fjord.
