Low-level magic like this will naturally not cause any harm to the mage who became a council member, but it is extremely one side used magic to stick other people's shoes to the floor, and the other side used magic to splash watercolor on the other person's clothes. It was almost like some kind of mental hospital carnival. But for these councilors, they are used to this kind of funny-looking magic confrontation. Anyway, every time they do this, the Speaker will soon be unable to bear it and send his own familiar to force him to make a decision. Sure enough, after this childish slapstick lasted for nearly half an hour, a green parrot transformed by the magic power of General Speaker Alois flew over. The voice of Alois came from the parrot's mouth, asking the members of the two main fighting factions to bleed blood to pay the ransom for 80% of the captives, while the other factions were responsible for the remaining 20%. As for the location of the prisoner exchange, the Red Rock Mountains on the edge of the Golden Federation territory were set, and the faction dedicated to diplomacy sent a congressman to handle related matters. Alois, who returned to his mage tower alone, sat down on a chair carved from stacked magic crystals with a solemn expression. His old hands played with the smooth chair, and he fell into deep thought. "I still underestimate the combat effectiveness of the Golden Federation. After all, it is a dynasty that can survive from the gods of ancient deeds. It is indeed outstanding." He said to himself in the empty space filled with books on the surrounding bookshelves. . He waved his hand and used magic power to form another blue phantom exactly like himself. The blue phantom stood next to him and spoke in human words: "I think the biggest problem in these two battles, in addition to underestimating the enemy of the Golden Federation, is also related to the lack of attention paid by our Offspring Council itself."
Alois nodded: "You are right, these two dispatches did not seriously send out a general who understands military affairs." The blue phantom's old face showed a headache: "But we in the Austrian Law Council do not have talents who are particularly good at military command. In the past, military operations only required mages to bombard us. Other countries simply cannot resist this kind of combat method." Alois continued: "But this kind of combat method is not effective when facing big countries, not to mention the Golden Federation, even when facing the Holy Empire of France and the Charles Empire, our mages are in the enemy's magic group. With the counterattack, we can only gain a certain advantage, but it cannot expand the results." Blue Phantom said: "Do you (I) think that the regular army sent by the Offa Council now can gain an advantage in military operations against the Golden Federation?" Alois shook his head: "No, I (you) think that even if you send out regular troops, you won't be able to gain a big advantage. From the mages who escaped back, I learned that the enemy has too many high-level combat forces. On the other hand, although we also have Many mages who have set foot in the legendary realm are not good at fighting after all. The death of Vladimir this time made me realize this." The blue phantom nodded: "Yes, and even if the regular army of the Offensive Council wins the battle, it will probably be a tragic victory. I don't believe that our two 'good neighbors' will miss such a good opportunity." "Good neighbors" of course refer to the Holy Empire of France and the Empire of Charles surrounding the Offen-Parliament. Alois nodded: "So looking at the overall situation, the best choice now is to suspend military operations against the Golden Federation and focus on improving the military capabilities within the Austrian Parliament, so that those mage apprentices who only know how to study can become capable Soldiers fighting on the battlefield.” Blue Phantom frowned: "But can those pampered mages become soldiers?" Alois and the blue phantom looked at each other and said at the same time: "There will be a way." Then the Speaker waved his hand, and the blue phantom turned into particles and returned to his is because after he practiced spiritual magic, he habitually separated a clone that had the same thoughts as his own to think. On the other side, the return ceremony of the prisoners of the Offician Council was left to Neferi Lu. Just to return the prisoners, Neferi Lu herself did not need to come forward, but sent the Homeless Knight to execute it, and the person in charge was White. This time, the Austrian Parliament officially sent its regular army to the vicinity of the Red Rock Mountains. They were fully armed and nervous and headed towards the location agreed upon by both parties. White's expression was relatively relaxed. He, Fazhuang and Arthur, who were also homeless knights but had not appeared alone for a long time, led 500 exiled soldiers and watched more than 300 prisoners advance. Under the clear winter sky, the two sides soon saw each other, and White also began to order the exiled soldiers to be alert and guard against possible attacks by the other party. "Boom." On top of the magic weapons, the soldiers of the Austrian Law Council moved heavy wooden boxes one after another and threw them on the soil, causing dust to rise. Ms. Alice Watts, the head of the Offa Council, had a guarded look in her eyes. She stood ten steps away from White and said, "These boxes contain the ransom used to redeem the captives." Ten steps was a relatively safe distance for this distance, Mage Elize can cast her spell instantly when the enemy rushes over.
But White didn't care about this distance. As long as he wanted to, even if the opponent took ten steps back, the Homeless Knight sword in his hand could easily chop off the opponent's head. He raised his armored arm and hooked his fingers back. The ten exiled soldiers walked out of the queue in unison and walked to the boxes in unison. The soldiers of the Offensive Council nervously held the weapons in their hands, even though the exiled soldiers just came to carry the boxes. There were no accidents during the transportation process by the exiled soldiers. After putting the box down, they pried open the top of the wooden box under White's order, and the bright light of magic materials emerged from the box. Alice saw the other party's actions and said at the same time: "Two tons of magic crystals, half a ton of black jade crystals, and 2 grams of purified lucky stones. Where are our prisoners?" While listening to what the other party said, White asked the exiled soldiers to count them. After confirming that everything was correct, he said, "Here, these 315 prisoners are all jumping around here." The popular soldiers escorted the prisoners of the Offician Parliament forward. These prisoners looked excited after seeing Elise and the Offician Parliament troops behind her, but the cloth stuffed in their mouths made them only utter. "Woo" sound. One by one, the prisoners escaped into the opponent's camp after escaping from the custody of the exiled soldiers. However, the nervous-looking soldiers of the Austrian Law Council did not let them go immediately. Instead, they formed a human wall to intercept the prisoners. They checked and checked that the prisoners did not hide explosive magic or other restrictions amidst the scoldings of the prisoners before they were relieved. Elise frowned: "315? The number is wrong. Where are the remaining people?" White shrugged: "The remaining people will be divided into two batches and returned. You, the Offensive Council, can prepare the same ransom." "...You guys! This is what we agreed to...Ms. Elize." Alice raised her hand to stop the irritated colleagues behind her. Instead, she glanced at White with deep eyes, bowed slowly and said: "I will report your request to the Austrian Parliament, then I will take these with me. The returning mage went back first." White waved his hand: "Slow down, don't send me away." Then he remembered something and reminded the other party "in good faith": "By the way, it's best to return to your own territory of the Offensive Council after the moon rises. Otherwise, don't be blamed if you encounter the night cavalry of our Golden Federation and are chased by them. us." White shrugged: "After all, they are not in the same system as us, and we can't order those cavalry. That's it." Chapter 154: Refuse to reconcile and take the initiative In Stonewell City, Roland was looking at Kenneth Hyde in disbelief in the conference hall. "The Austrian Parliament sent representatives to ask us for reconciliation? Are they mentally ill?" Roland shook his head, feeling that Kenneth Hyde seemed to be teasing him. Kenneth Hyde also had an amused expression, but thinking that he was in a meeting, he coughed slightly, controlled his facial expression, and said seriously: "Lord Roland, although I really want to tell you that this is a joke, But judging from the envoys from the Offensive Council currently staying in Leiden, they are serious." "Scoff——" Edgar, the city lord of Morn City wearing bright silver armor next to Kenneth Hyde, sneered, and then he slapped the table with an angry face: "What do these bastards of the Offensive Council think of our Golden Federation? Is it their back garden? Come and leave whenever you want?" Roland stretched out his hand and pressed it softly, signaling Edgar not to be too excited. Kenneth Hyde also comforted Edgar, but he also agreed with what the other person said, but the specific decision still depends on Roland. In the conference room at this moment, except for Greg who went to the Rivendale Alliance and was not present, Malkit, Neferi Lu, Blaze and Bernard were all sitting here. The reason why Bernal is here is because Roland recently summoned the large arena of Nimgefu to the vicinity of Pulin City as planned, and Roland moved this stadium, which symbolizes Malika and Ge, as promised. The Furet-era buildings were given to Bernal. Currently, the Nimgefu Arena can be used by soldiers who have joined the Golden Federation. They can go there to find opponents and train themselves.
It is worth mentioning that Roland discovered that there are two modes in the arena. One is similar to the game, where you put your own spirit body and the opponent's spirit body on the competitive stage. If the spirit body is fatally injured, it will advantage of this mode is that both sides can fight freely, but the disadvantage is that they will not receive any rewards after victory. The other is the most common one, which is for the contestants to participate in actual combat. In actual combat, there will inevitably be casualties, but fortunately, there are drops of grace that can allow contestants to quickly recover from their advantage is that the winning contestant will receive the blessing of the golden tree, further increasing his course, the losing party will not suffer any loss or punishment. To put it simply, the former is a training mode and the latter is a ranking mode. At present, many locals who have joined the Golden Federation Army are very enthusiastic about the latter, because it is really difficult for anyone to resist this situation where they can feel that they have become heard from Bernal that the two young girls were the ones who were beaten the hardest among them. The little girls in Bernal's mouth are naturally Lucia and Lamia, who surrendered before and eventually became the reserves of the Lost Knights. It can be said that their strength is completely different now than when they were first to their natural beauty and fierce fighting style, they have gained a lot of popularity among those who often participate in the arena. However, the arena is not open to the public yet, and Bernal is currently making relevant preparations. Of course, even if the arena is open to the outside world, Roland will tell the Golden Tree not to reward the other party with blessings easily. At least, first check whether the opponent has any hostility towards the Golden Federation. If there is no hostility, then give a small amount of blessings as for the dew drops of grace, they will not be used unconditionally like they are for one's own people. If you want to enjoy these benefits, you must join the Golden Federation. The scene turned back to the conference room. Roland looked around and said to the heroes from all over the world who looked at him with burning eyes: "Of course I will not agree to the reconciliation request of the Austrian Law Council. Why do you think I will agree to the other party's request?" Kenneth Hyde coughed lightly and said, "Well, after all, Mr. Roland, you have never taken the initiative before..." Roland couldn't laugh or cry: "It was because we had too few troops in our hands before. Do you think I didn't want to take action against the Charles Empire? If it hadn't been for the Austrian Parliament to take the initiative this time, my next step would definitely have been to take action against the Charles Empire. Military operations." After hearing Roland's words, Edgar smiled with satisfaction, and then asked seriously: "Lord Roland, who do you plan to send as the main force to attack the Austrian Parliament?" As soon as Edgar said this, Roland felt that something was wrong in the atmosphere in the conference room. It seemed that everyone was eyeing this spot. Well, except for Kenneth Hyde. The blond nobleman sat down directly, as if he didn't care at all about the quota for this first expedition. His calm and calm appearance surprised Edgar next to him: "Don't you want to participate in this expedition, Kenneth?" Unexpectedly, Kenneth Hyde curled his lips, and the golden beard on his lips twitched and said: "Firstly, my force value is not as high as yours, and secondly, my military skills are not as good as yours. The last and most important point is that if I also follow When you fight against the Austrian Law Council, who will provide the food supplies on your way?" Then he waved his hand to Edgar, telling him not to disturb him, and he took out a thick notebook, opened it, and began to calculate the food consumed by the troops. After Malkit heard these words from Kenneth Hyde, she thought of something and suppressed her inner impulse to recommend opened his mouth and said to Roland: "This time I am specifically responsible for making a small contribution to the Golden Federation on the enemy's rear battlefield. Let others take the quota for this expedition." Roland looked at Marchite and nodded, and asked casually: "Do you need anything else from me? Will Darien adapt to your orders?" Darien is the real name of [Hunting Death D]. Malkit replied: "Are you talking about the man who is extremely fanatical about his belief in the golden tree? Well, I am very satisfied. Although his strength is not as strong as the night cavalry, he can always complete the tasks I assign with excellence. ." The tasks assigned by Malkit are basically aimed at those who joined the Golden Federation and then betrayed the Golden Tree due to the temptation of the outside world. The implication is that Darien is the same as the Night Cavalry. As long as Malkit thinks this If people deserve to be killed, then there is no need to ask why. "That's good. I was worried at first that he would be dissatisfied with you because of your omen status." Roland said with a relaxed expression, and then looked at Blazer: "As for the personnel for this expedition, I have already decided Blaze, I will let you lead the troops of the Kallia royal family to tell the people of the Offa Council what a true mage is." Blaze was sitting on the chair with his hands folded across his chest, and his furry wolf tail was unconsciously hanging on the back of the chair, swaying slightly from side to the half-werewolf heard Roland's words, his tail immediately stood up excitedly and swung wider. Then he stood up, patted his chest, and happily showed his wolf fangs: "Well, I will not let you and Lani down. expectations.” At this time, Neferi Lu expressed her confusion and said: "Roland, I don't want to compete for this spot. But it seems that the number of mages from Blazer and the Kallia royal family is not enough to serve as the main force of the attack." Before Blaise could speak, Malkit, who was on the side, took the lead in explaining for Blaise: "Your Excellency Neferi Lu, you must have been born relatively late, when the Golden Dynasty and the Caliya Royal Family were interdependent. It’s time for allies.” The ominous demon ghost glanced at the half-werewolf and continued: "So you don't know that what the Kaliya royal family is actually best at is using fewer enemies to defeat more. And their puppetry will make dead enemies and companions stand up again and continue. In combat, if the opponent is not strong enough, he is very likely to be overwhelmed by the powerful knights and mages of the Calian royal family leading countless puppet soldiers."
Neferi Lu nodded with understanding. Blaze also nodded to Neferi Lu: "Thank you for your concern, Sir Neferi Lu. Lord Roland also recently helped summon a group of Kaliya soldiers under Lord Lani, plus the current mages. As well as the puppet master Biddy, there is no problem for the Kaliya royal family to be the main force in attacking the Offa Council." The half-werewolf showed a cruel smile: "And I don't think anyone is better at dealing with mages than our Kallia royal family. This is also thanks to the treacherous traitors of the Cuckoo Knights. We also learned a lot of counter-spells from them. means." Roland finally added: "Don't worry, Neferi Lu. I will also follow Blaze this time. Don't worry about my safety. My strength has been restored after absorbing the big rune fragment from Greg." Part of it. And with Blaze, I can absorb the souls of the dead on the battlefield into ether. You know, the pride of the Calian royal family - the Calian knight. I can already summon it, but the ether is not enough right now, so I can't. Summon them over.” Blaze showed excited eyes: "Can the Kalia Knight be summoned too? Is it Mugram?" Roland shook his head at Blaze and said regretfully, "No, it's someone else." Blaze was not disappointed, but nodded happily: "It doesn't matter who it is, as long as a Kalia knight comes over, the Officine Council will not be afraid at all." Roland said a few more words to Blaze, then looked at the others and said in a deep voice: "Edge, Kenneth Hyde, when I go to war with the army, I must pay great attention to the security around Moren City and Leiden City. .I want to take away [Big Tree Guard] Fernandi and [Flying Dragon] Akil." The city lord and nobles both nodded. "Malkit, Stonewell City will be handed over to you during this period. Neferi Lu, after Kallia's army sets off, you arrange for two homeless knights to lead 2000 exiled soldiers as a guide." Malkit tapped the ground with her cane: "Don't worry, Roland. If anyone dares to take the opportunity to cause trouble, I will let them understand how I got the name 'Monster'." And Neferi Luze said: "I will send the lost knights Oleg and White as guides." Roland nodded: "That's it, Blaise, let's go get ready and set off early tomorrow morning. Kenneth, remember to tell the envoys of the Offensive Assembly tomorrow afternoon that we refuse to reconcile." Chapter 155: Sneak across Yinping and head straight into the fog of Shuhan Roland's mobilization work was done very quickly. It would be better to say that from the moment he issued the order through the golden tree, the soldiers and mages from the Calian royal family were ready. [Big Tree Guard] Fernandi first rushed from Morn City to Leiden City through the blessing teleportation point, and then led the 20 Troll Knights and enough food and grass requested by Roland to Neferi Lu's Pling City. Standby waiting. [Flying Dragon] Yaqir also spread his wings and flew out from the endless forest, and through the blessing teleportation point, he arrived at the half-renovated military fortress-level Pulin City. As for why the other younger flying dragon was not called over, it was because the other flying dragon was called by Greg to go to the Glen Alliance where the gray elves were. This is another story. On the Kallia royal family's side, Blaze led an army of 400 people and stood at the blessing teleportation point in front of the royal hall in Stonewell City. The Calian mages were almost like mobile treasure troves, carrying bulging backpacks diagonally across their bodies filled with scrolls, pyroxenes, and shiny containers of blue liquid in reagent footsteps continued to sound, these mages moved forward confidently amidst the tide of calls, and the pyroxene stone covers symbolizing different classrooms reflected the light under the light of the golden newly summoned Calian soldiers and knights were wearing dark blue and bright silver armor, holding swords, shields, and spears; they stood upright in front of Blaze, as if they were an unshakable force. Iron wall. There are a total of 300 mages, 90 Carian soldiers and 10 ordinary Carian knights (compared to the Gray Knights). Roland looked at Blaze with a strange expression and said, "Blaze, don't you think it's a bit awkward for Master Kaliya to stand with these soldiers?" The corners of the half-werewolf's mouth twitched and he nodded: "I have to admit what you said, Roland. I never dreamed that one day the soldiers and knights of Callia would put on the equipment of the Cuckoo Knight and stand in front of us. If it weren't for the fact that the badges embroidered on their chests represent the full moon of Her Royal Highness Lani instead of the cuckoo, I might have been unable to bear it." Roland nodded in agreement. It turned out that the Calian soldiers and knights he summoned with the few ethers all wore the same costumes as the Cuckoo Roland hadn't carefully confirmed with the system that the soldiers summoned were all soldiers loyal to Lani, these soldiers Roland could only let them stay in Stonewell City and then go to Malkit to keep an eye on them. An ordinary Calian knight standing in front of Blaze, whose armor and attire were no different from the Cuckoo Knight, also said in an awkward tone: "Sir Blaze, we don't want to dress like this. But Her Highness Lani asked us to wear it. The disgusting Cuckoo equipment, it is said that Cuckoo’s equipment is indeed better in terms of magic defense attributes.” Roland stood with Blaze and naturally heard the knight's explanation. He said to Blaze: "Well, that's right. We have to admit it, Blaze." The half-werewolf nodded.
In the original game, the Cuckoo Knight rebelled against the Kaliya royal family. During the attack on the Kaliya Walled City, the blood of the Kallian royal family flowed like a river. Therefore, the sword monument in front of the main entrance of the Kaliya Walled City has the words "despicable". The words "where cuckoo corpses litter the fields". Precisely because the Cuckoo Knights have long had thoughts of betrayal, their equipment has extremely high magic resistance. The text of the Cuckoo Shield in the game even has this description: "The magic attribute has a high damage reduction rate and is a shield for hunting magicians." .—The enemy I am waiting for is Kalia.” Of course, judging from the results in the game, the Cuckoo Knights not only betrayed Calia, but also the Rhea Lucalia Academy that had made a contract with them. They can be said to be "Cuckoos" in the true sense. But in Roland's opinion, the appearance of the Cuckoo Knight is the most beautiful among all the ordinary knights, second only to the Red Lion 's just a pity that these people wearing blue and silver armor and riding white horses are a group of treacherous traitors. "How is Lani's condition now?" Roland heard the knight mention "Lani" and quickly asked worriedly.
