Chapter 437: The Secret of the Gray Valley
The sky is easy to indulge in, and the wind blowing from the southeast brings a fresh scent of plants...... As the sky gradually darkens, the afterglow of the sunset makes the sky purple and red, incomparably gorgeous. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 infoThen, a crescent moon shone on the lake in the distance, reflecting a white light.
Below, the scenery on both sides of the river begins to change dramatically, and the topography of the river banks begins to rise and become rocky. It didn't take long for the terrain below to become a series of rolling hills, not very square, but lush with vegetation. The slopes on both sides are buried under a large number of thorns, vines and ferns.
Behind that terrain are low cliffs with ivy-covered pillars, and behind the cliffs are fir trees that look dying in the strong winds. They are getting closer and closer to the Ephemore Valley...... This ground is very strange to ordinary people, it is in the wizarding world, and it represents a long-standing wizarding organization - Gray Valley.
Merlin is riding on a magic carpet, this kind of flying vehicle looks very spirited, but it is actually inferior to her flying puppet, if you don't use the energy shield on it, tearful communication is already the best...... Most of the wizards' bodies are very similar, and the cold snaps encountered in high-altitude flight may freeze if you don't use an energy shield. And now...... Merlin was covered with a layer of fire elemental, and she felt like a humanoid torch, feeling old, as for the scenery along the way...... Hmph, I've been aesthetically tired for a long time, and I can't arouse half of my interest.
Riding with Merlin was Alonso, the head of the Golem Academy, along with an old man and a male wizard in his thirties...... The former is the vice-president of the Golem Academy, the priest, and the latter is also a student of Alonso, the first-class wizard Thorne.
This time, the group's goal was Ash Valley.
Just when Merlin was promoted to a second-level warlock. Alonso received an invitation from Mount Sol about the Sea Clan invasion...... To be precise, the Sea Clan has signs of the right to invade.
In the hearts of all the continental races, there is no trivial matter involving the Sea Clan, and once there is a problem with the Sea Clan, all disputes will be settled immediately until the Sea Clan problem is perfectly resolved.
Of course, an invitation card doesn't say much, but it says the event and the time and place of the meeting...... This is another place that surprises Merlene.
Ashenvale, a wizarding organization she had never heard of.
Originally, Merlin didn't want to be involved in this matter, but Alonso didn't know why she had to participate...... The reason, of course, was that Merlin, as his best student, deserved to be present on such a large occasion.
Because of the news of the Sea Clan, now that the war between the two major forces of the Black Wizard and the White Wizard has completely stopped, the fourth-level wizards of the major forces have reached a unanimous decision when they meet in Sun Mountain, preparing to come to a conference alliance to prevent the mainland forces from being broken by the Sea Clan.
In the old days, the Golem Academy, as a member of the Arisan Wizarding Alliance, would not have had the opportunity to participate in this kind of gathering. But now that Alonso is a veritable fourth-level wizard, a major event like this alliance can no longer bypass the Golem Academy, which has grown in strength, and the alliance also needs to increase its voice.
For Alonso, he also needs an opportunity to show his muscles to the wizarding forces in the north of the entire Misty Continent, although the invasion of the Sea Clan is a blow to the land race, but it is also not a new division of forces, and showing his muscles at this time may get unexpected gains. So, he personally brought the Vice-Dean Priest and two of his best students, while De Niro and the other Vice-Presidents sat in the College and handled the complicated affairs of the College.
The place chosen for this official meeting was not the Mount del Sol, but the Vale of Ephemore where a neutral wizarding organization was located. That's where the ash valley is located.
Although it was a bit boring along the way, Merlin also noticed a strange phenomenon...... In other places, it was more or less affected by the fighting between the black wizards and the white wizards, but in this area, there seems to have been no war, and you can even see the black and white wizards coming and going together in some towns, and they seem to get along very well.
"Thorne, what is the origin of this Grey Valley, and how can the Dark and White Wizards put aside their prejudices and live in peace?" asked Merlin curiously.
Thorne was considered her student, and although Merlin was now a second-level warlock, she was still respectful in front of Thorne, and she did not get carried away because she had successfully advanced to the ranks.
Although Thorne's qualifications are not as good as Merlene's, they are still much better than ordinary students, otherwise Alonso would not have taught him personally. However, like Merlin, he did not choose to be promoted quickly, but kept sharpening himself, hoping to consolidate his foundation before being promoted. And this guy is like a living encyclopedia, and a lot of inexplicable things are known. It is inconvenient for her to ask her mentor these two questions, but this senior can obviously ask for advice.
"The overall strength of Ash Valley is not very strong, and any academy in the alliance is stronger than them. And although the wizards of Ashenvale are not hermits, they rarely leave their sphere of influence. However, there is one thing, in the sphere of influence of Ashenvale, trading is the safest, and it is in the sphere of influence of Ashenvale, and the wizards have almost no fighting......"
Thorne stole a glance at Alonso, and seeing that he didn't mean to object, he explained to Merlin in a vivid tone.
"Speaking of this, it goes back to the time of the first Sea Clan invasion. At that time, the Grey Valley was still the most powerful wizard organization in the north of the Misty Continent, because the valley master of the Grey Valley was a sixth-level wizard and the only sixth-level wizard in the entire northern region.
The battle was fierce and brutal, with the Sea Race outnumbering and the Land Race being a cut ahead. When the war reached its most critical juncture, the Sea Clan invited out the great wizard of the Deep Sea Royal Clan, which was a seventh-level wizard. At that time, there were still a group of fifth-level wizards in the northern part of the Misdi Continent, but there was only one sixth-level wizard, and there was no seventh-level wizard. As soon as the Sea Clan Great Wizard made a move, he was invincible, killing the mainland race to the ground, and seeing that the continental alliance army was about to collapse, the valley lord of the Gray Valley took the strong man of the Gray Valley to set up an ambush in the place where the Sea Clan Great Wizard must pass.
The battle was bloody, the dead and wounded, the strong men of the Grey Valley were killed and wounded, and the valley lord of the Grey Valley died with the great wizard of the Sea Clan......
It was a decisive battle, when the Continental Alliance took the opportunity to counterattack and drive the Sea Clan back to the sea, and Ash Valley was almost removed from the wizarding world after this battle. ”
Thorne couldn't help but gasp a little as he spoke.
