Chapter 0761: Family Meeting
Baron Wilms died......
The two wizards who accompanied the baron, one dead and one seriously wounded......
And the seriously injured wizard who escaped by luck returned to the Scattered Tallinn Association, but he insisted that he had been attacked by the wizards of the Crimson family. This time it was a hornet's nest, and the old guys of the Scattered Tallinn Association had not yet expressed their position, but the elders and deacons under them were clamoring to demand severe punishment for the murderers who openly attacked and killed the wizards of the association.
And several small wizarding families near the Crimson Throne jumped up and down, and they all aimed their attacks at this powerful Crimson family.
After all, the Crimson family is a newly rising wizard family, and it lacks allies with sufficient weight within the scattered Tallinn, but it is a big handful of enemies. So it's no surprise that an anti-Crimson family alliance is rapidly forming.
The main force of the 'Anti-Crimson Family Alliance' is naturally the small wizarding families that are close to the Crimson Throne Witch Tower. Their foundation is too close to the Crimson Family, and if the Crimson Family chooses to expand externally, I'm afraid that the power of several of their families will be affected to a greater or lesser extent.
Rather than wait for the Crimson Family to become powerful and annex them, it would be better for them to take advantage of the internal division of the Crimson Family to split up.
Of course, before they did it, these small wizarding families also made a lot of hard work, and did a deep understanding of the wizarding power inside the Crimson Throne Witch Tower.
The Crimson family strategically divided their forces into the Northlands, transferring most of the family's power to the Icewind Lords under the control of the Northland Witches. This kind of leapfrogging and subversive thinking is obviously not favored by other wizarding families.
Although it is still possible to exchange personnel and resources through the remote teleportation array, this circulation has great limitations considering the amount of magic crystals that need to be used to teleport once.
If the Crimson family is given a few more decades to operate and cultivate slowly, maybe it can really blossom in both places, and use the Crimson Throne and the White Tower to spread the family's power and influence to a wider area. Unfortunately, at the beginning of the split, both the Crimson Throne in the Scattered Tallinn region and the White Tower in the Northland Ice Wind Realm were in a period of short-term weakness.
The originally clenched fists suddenly spread out, and the strength of the two witch towers naturally became weak.
On the side of the White Tower, they can't reach it, but on the side of the Crimson Throne, they are within reach.
As a result, fueled by both overt and covert enemies, a terrifying storm against the Crimson family is rapidly brewing.
And Gargamel, as the grand butler of the Crimson Throne, naturally received countless intelligence and information early. It's a pity that the wizarding power he can call on is still too little and too little, so he is powerless to reverse the increasingly harsh living environment in front of him.
By the time these days, the road to the south of the Crimson Throne has been cut off, and the markets and towns around the tower have become sparsely populated. Most of the adventurers, mercenaries, and apprentices have already left the area, waiting for a family war to break out!
In the past, this kind of large-scale wizarding clan war was not allowed by the Scattered Tallinn Society.
After all, it is always the backbone of the scattered Tallinn region that is lost in the war!
If the wizarding families are allowed to kill each other, then the Scattered Tallinn Association will eventually lose its underlying foundation to resist the invasion of the three major wizarding forces. However, it is still necessary to eliminate the weak and retain the strong in a small area.
After all, a powerful wizard family can only reach the top if it steps on the enemy's native bones!
Therefore, when the wizard of the association was attacked and killed near the Crimson Throne Witch Tower, the Scattered Tallinn Association also faintly relaxed its control over this area, and began to contact several small forces around it, intentionally or unintentionally, to form a powerful 'Anti-Crimson Family Alliance'.
And now, this alliance has gathered enough wizard power to gradually encroach on the periphery of the Crimson Throne Witch Tower. Once they are allowed to gain a foothold there, I am afraid that the Crimson Throne Witch Tower will also face a prepared and planned siege by the other party.
Although the Witch Tower claims to be indestructible, it also has to be divided into whose hands.
If it is in the hands of a third-order wizard, even if those fourth-order wizards are there in person, they are not completely sure that they will break the tower and kill it. But if the Witch Tower is in the hands of a second-order wizard, the upper limit of the power that the Witch Tower can exert is even more miserable.
As long as the strategy is right, the means are tough, and the number of wizards is large enough, it is not so difficult to forcibly knock down a small witch tower!
So these days, there is already a lot of noise near the Crimson Throne, and even the wizards and apprentices of the family don't dare to take another half step out of the Witch Tower.
"First of all, I would like to state one thing...... "In Grim's absence, Mary is sitting on the throne: "This is a great conspiracy against us!"
At this point, Mary paused, and her scarlet blood pupils that shone like ruby slowly swept across the room.
Many wizards in the arena were in one place, silently listening to Mary's pre-war declaration.
Standing on Mary's side was naturally her lineage.
Thoros and Winsor are two pseudo-second-order blood knights, as well as two beautiful blood elves with delicate faces and pointed ears. The old fox Winliel did not appear in this battle sequence because he needed to stay in the White Tower to assist Meryl.
The other two second-order families, the dragonman Zacha and the goblin Tigul, each had a corner and silently listened to Mary's speech.
Seriously, they weren't the core wizards of the Crimson family.
Dragonman Zacha is the first second-order soul slave accepted by Grim, so naturally everything is subject to Grim's will. Now that Grim is far away from the fire elemental plane, the fact that the dragonman Zacha has attended this family meeting with an attitude of necessity does not mean that he has to offer his loyalty to the weak Mary.
Goblin Tigur himself only has a Tier 1 strength, and he relies on the Goblin Clan's unique mechanic profession to control the Tier 2 Demon Ripper. Now that the goblin plane has become the possession of the Crimson family, this goblin warrior can only pinch his nose and join the wizard's team for the benefit of the clan.
However, within the Crimson Family, Tigur the goblin only bows down to the powerful wizard Grimm. As for this Wizard Mary, it is not yet to the point of directly drinking it.
In order to show the importance of the Witch of Destiny, Alice also sent her own super fierce general, the Berserk Witch Sophia. And Sophia, who is five big and three thick, rough and super strong men, holds her thick witch wooden staff and has a corner alone, looking like she doesn't listen to the announcement.
Except for these unruly creatures, on the other side of the hall are all the internal wizards of the Crimson Throne Witch Tower.
Gargamel, the Crimson Archmaster, Ava the Wood, their beloved daughter Emelia Wizard, and Caron, the Manticore Lion...... Originally, there were some free wizards recruited from within the Witch Tower, but considering that they were not reliable, Gargamel did not summon them to this internal family meeting.
As soon as she glanced at it, she saw that it was such a group of stragglers who were bowing down in front of her, and Mary's brows couldn't help but furrow.
"Grim is now exploring the fire elemental plane, and it will be difficult for him to return to the family in the short term. I've already met Alice before I came, and the crisis facing the Crimson Throne this time is most likely a conspiracy against Grim by some enemy behind the scenes!"
"Lord Mary, could you please elaborate on the specific situation!" The dragon man Zacha was worthy of the most loyal soul servant, and his anger was instantly ignited when he heard that this operation might involve the safety of his master.
"The current situation is complex, and I can only briefly describe it. Mary licked her red lips and said sharply, "Grim went to the fire elemental plane with the help of the power of the Crimson Throne Witch Tower, and left the plane positioning coordinates here. Once this place is attacked and the dimensional positioning coordinates are lost, it will be a big problem for Grim to come back!"
"Are you saying that the idea of those bastards to fight here is to get their master lost in the Alien Plane?" Draconian Zacha's voice immediately rose an octave, and the body of the drakeman covered with blue scale armor immediately crackled with dazzling thunder.
"That's right!" Mary nodded, "So, until Grim returns, we must hold the Witch Tower tightly and never let them destroy the coordinates here." ”
"Understood, Lord Mary!" Zacha the dragon man immediately became murderous, "Until the master successfully returns, Zacha is willing to listen to Lord Mary's assignment and beat those rabbit cubs back to their nest!"
Mary nodded in satisfaction, and her eyes quickly focused on the goblin Tigur.
Faced with the spiritual oppression of a second-order vampire wizard, even Tigul's battle-hardened array couldn't help but be secretly frightened. Complaining in his heart about the uprightness and recklessness of the big man, Tigul sighed, and could only take a step forward with a forced smile.
"Maria-sama, during the time of Lord Grimm's absence, I am willing to obey your command!"
Now that the second-order reinforcements of the two families have nodded their heads, the next combat missions will be easily assigned. As for those first-order wizards within the family, they only have the right to bow down and obey orders on such occasions, and they have no bargaining power at all.
"Gargamel, now you can report on the enemy's side......"
"Yes, Maria-sama!"
Gargamel obediently stepped out from the side, cleared his throat, looked around at the family's core wizards, and began to introduce loudly.
“…… At present, there are 5 forces that are entangled and ready to attack our Crimson Family, including the Kamala Family, the Andorra Family, the Senas Family, the Magic Grove, and the Layton Wizard Academy......"
“…… They are currently stationed in the Kamala family's territory, preparing to use it as a springboard for a quick invasion of our Crimson family......"
“…… The aristocratic army they assembled was 30,000 men, cobbled together by three small wizarding families. The number of official wizards has exceeded 100, but the number of wizards of rank 2 and above is unknown......"
