You appear in the guild hall.

Soon, the captain of the guard of the labyrinth village led the guards to the neck of the "old mage" and escorted them to the hall, followed by Melanie and the "Impromptu Map" adventurer team. Melanie's expression was complicated, because she had clearly kicked through the old mage's skull at that time, and she had confirmed that she couldn't die more thoroughly. The old mage looks directly at you with both hands in a gesture of surrender.

He...... Why are you still alive, and why are you here?

"Honorable Elder, I ......," the old mage tried to smile, "I have come to make peace on behalf of Heraran. Walked in from the city gate without any resistance, with sincerity. None of your members died in the previous battle, but we suffered heavy losses, Antonio Xin and two other level 17 mages were killed, and the victory or defeat was already very clear. At the end of the day, there is no mortal enmity between you and me. It is said that you made peace with Ms. Sylvana, proving that you are a negotiating leader. ”

As if noticing you looking up and down, he explained that he had previously used the 9-ring necromancy "Static Clone", and immediately resurrected from a pre-prepared clone after death. He had several clones, and it took two to four months to make. Antonio Sheen originally had a clone, but the quilt lizard completely demolished the entire cultivation room, and the assassination of the nobleman was convicted, so he could not be resurrected.

There was another important reason for Heraland's willingness to make peace—they had been expelled from the western frontier and were increasingly disadvantaged in the kingdom.

"If you accept our peace, Heraran is willing to sell you the Wishing Technique to increase your stat value. ”

Sale?

"There's also a level 17 mage in your territory, is he willing to sell his Wishing Technique? The old mage glanced back at the tower. Indeed, the otaku mage would rather sell the art he made than sell his wishing art. "If you could give us access to the arena in your territory, it would be a great help. ”

Arena?

You look back at Hathaway, who whispers in her ear that it was probably Heraran who was well-informed and learned that your arena was undead, and that this was a great way for archmages to safely earn experience to replenish the loss of wishing spells. It's shrewd.

"Please don't attack, I'll give you 1 strength right now. "The old mage casts the "Wishing Technique" on you in slow motion without provoking the guards, and a powerful energy swells into your body, "Wishing can accumulate up to 5 of a single attribute. If you have enough money, each available Archmage can sell you 1 stat per day. It's just that it's very expensive, starting at 10,000 gold. ”

Ha!

Come on, come on, come on, come on, add all your six ring attributes, and then add all the other people, and Kyle will be reimbursed anyway!

The old mage breathed a sigh of relief, and the guards gradually lowered their weapons.

The old mage glanced back at the "improvised map" behind him and said to you, "Thank you, sir. Actually, I have one more thing to do today, to find this "Mr. Rafael Sheen". ”

"Huh?" The dwarf captain and the halfling were stunned, and turned to look blankly at their companions, but the sorceress had already expected it.

Raphael raised his hand and stopped, "No need to go on. I don't need to. ”

"Mr. Rafael Sin, your father, Antonio Sin, has unfortunately passed away, and although the evidence of the crime is conclusive, he has been knighted, and you are no longer able to take the throne, but I entrust me with part of the legal inheritance he left behind. "Many people go to the old master to do things, because he is really quite responsible and unusually obedient. I think that at the beginning, he kept Kyle Jr.'s contract for many years.

The old mage handed Raphael a note from the Bank of the Intramura City, a lot of zeros.

Raphael tore the bill to shreds: "I said it, I don't need anything from my father. His title, his legacy, or his twisted and obsessive will to ascend to the throne have nothing to do with me. With that, he pushed the guards away and left without looking back. The sorceress quickly chased after her, followed by the dwarves and halflings, shouting, "What son of a baron?

The old mage smiled awkwardly and saluted you, "Thank you for your forgiveness and kindness, and I assure you that no one in Heraran will dare to have any disrespectful thoughts towards you again. I must now fulfill Antonio Sheen's request to convince his only son to find a way to glorify his ancestors, even if he can't claim a title. Leave. "Anyway, the old mage went after Raphael.

The kingdom's largest arcane association, "Heraran", is still a skinny camel bigger than a horse, they now have no main base, no leader, no operation and management organizational structure, and the remnants are scattered all over the country, and no one can say exactly how many people, how many masters, and how many funds. The dead Hedavir Arcane Association is a rookie who has joined Heraran not long ago and runs to the Five Alleys Bay to stand on its own, and many small Arcane Associations have sprung up all over the country.

You agreed to the expulsion plan from the West, which led to a situation that no one expected—the Heraran masters of the West had to shift their positions and reconnect with other old friends. A whole huge association that has collapsed is trying to coalesce.

"President, did I ever say that the second generation attaches great importance to "grasping the opportunity"?" Hathaway blinked, as if he had just come to his senses, and handed you a suppressed order that read, "Search for all the archmages above level 17 in Helaran scattered all over the place, and pull them under the banner of the Five Alleys Bay Market, or kill." Publisher: Kyle Jr.

You look at the lost Melanie and ask her if she's free now?

"If you ask, there will always be. What do you command?" Melanie asked, and you took her hand and walked to the teleportation array, tilting your head, unable to guess what it was.

After several twists and turns,

You and Melanie arrive at the huge drawbridge of the royal city, and the crowds are still there.

Two purposes: to bring Melanie to buy weapons to coax her, and besides, you plan to avoid the resignation of the guild - if someone is going to leave, you can't stop it, not even the goddess of life can make everyone like her. Just give the resignation letter directly to Hathaway, and you will know the result when you get back.

Melanie hardly ever comes to the metropolis, especially during the day. She kept looking around like a bun, and the corners of her mouth remained flying. She smiled bitterly and declined to taste the long line of snacks, then shook her head and decided that it was better not to approach the direction of the temple casually, she touched her chin and stared at the guards patrolling the street, wondering how much practical value those golden heavy armor had, thinking about which policies in the royal city could be applied to the maze camp to learn.

Following the crowd, you gradually come to the entrance of the Black Street, and there is still and only the King's lover guarding the door—according to Tong En, this little girl is actually the entire Black Street above-ground and underground building itself, she is a humanized building. It's strange that the fists and feet were so fierce at the beginning. Even if you use the wishing technique, you don't know how much effort it will take to experiment with such an effect, and Raumi can't do it.

It was close to noon, and there were no people on the black market.

Along the narrow, winding stone staircase and into the dimly lit underground black market, you and Melanie rent a construct shaped like a giant spider that can carry passengers and goods. Six metal legs move smoothly on the ground and even on the wall, relying on the seat surrounded by three rings to ensure that the passenger will not fall, a very strange means of transportation.

The situation is different from the last time I came, and I saw anything I liked along the way to buy and buy.

Melanie is armed to the teeth.

A pair of 2 xenomorph weapons, which look like double-headed daggers, are nothing more than a crescent moon shape, with toothed spikes in the arc, a pair of 2 pure gold claw gloves, similar to the metal fist gloves of the warrior monk, are just used to arm her nails, after all, the hardness of the natural weapon is not so ideal, she finds someone to hide a circle of sharp blades around the edge of her skirt, and when she turns around, she has a sense of immediacy of a saw blade, her shoes are equipped with poison blades, a dozen silver throwing knives, and a rope dart hammer with radiant damage, she really likes xenomorph weapons.

All have a curse, harmless only to herself.

For lunch, she had a full meal in the Black Street...... It's really selling everything. You head back to the streets of Intramuros and eat delicious snacks all the way to the front of the Arcane Knights' Guild, where the Guildmaster loves you anyway.

Rarely at ease, Melanie sat among the guild clerks and told bizarre stories that had been passed down long ago, and that only the Eternals could have seen and heard. Melanie loves to manage her territory, but she can't remember how long it was since she last took a nap, so who hates a holiday? There was an inexplicable sense of security in the royal city, as if the whole city was declaring that "if something happens here, there will be no safety anywhere." Especially now, when the Duke of Doom is busy with the battle of the Jackals in the Northwest, it is full of peace.

"Svanay's survival is definitely not due to his strength, there are only three reasons. "The Arcane Knights are teaching you some new techniques while talking about Duke Doom, "First, there is a stinky and shameless brain-dead villain, which helps the other forces to be more united, and smart people know this; second, there is a stinky and shameless companion, so that the head of Elander, the boss of Saint Sicilon, and the Vaal Pope will not control the kingdom alone; third, there is a stinky and shameless frontier butcher, and many tricky wars will be easier to win." Ten times as many people wanted Swanai to live than there were to kill him. ”

Oh, yes

Now that you don't have a villain by your side, it's really uncomfortable. I would have known that Antonio Sheen would have been killed, or that it would have been better for Portz.

You've spent the whole afternoon at the training grounds of the Arcane Knights' Guild, as if you don't want to go back. Who knows whose resignation is on your desk?

So, at dusk, you send Melanie, who is in a good mood, back to the labyrinth village, and then go straight to the meeting room of the Lonely Island Temple.

Hathaway bows to you slightly, not saying who resigned.

At least Julianne is still there, and she's ready for the Phantom Meeting.

Lohoyo also bowed to you slightly, as if he hadn't tricked you this morning, and stood next to your seat.

The previous proposal to reduce the tax rate on tea proposed by the "small and medium-sized distribution" has been approved by 4/5 votes today, and they have succeeded. The faces of several nobles in the East were very unsightly, but they seemed to have become accustomed to it.

Your proposal to rebuild the Adventurer's Guild in "Wisteria Ghost Ridge" and incorporate it into the management of the branch has changed in the approval rate - several nobles in the central and southern regions and the small and medium-sized distribution have agreed, and it seems that the bribery is being promoted, and the effect is significant.

Suddenly, a nobleman from the Eastern Frontier pressed his hand on the table and spoke: "After all, the proposal involves the Western Frontier, and we can't let go. Can you have a chat when it's convenient for Lord Viscount?" As soon as the words fell, several nobles in the Western Realm instantly couldn't sit still. It was not a trivial matter to build the Adventurer's Guild around them, and it was impossible for the nobles of the Western Realm to agree to it.

"We also have a 'middle thing' on our side. ”

The North suddenly spoke,

"There's been a slight change in the war – we need to cross the border in three days to pursue the gnolls. ”

"No way! This is not a "medium matter" at all, but a "big matter"!" a nobleman from the West slammed the table, "Do you know what you are proposing?

The nobles of the northern realm took a sip: "You also know that it is a "small country"? their home and country that have long been harmed by jackals are gone, and there is a diplomatic crisis, what are you afraid of that? It is our Duke Swanai who is fighting hard, and it is our northern border. Lao Tzu just informed you according to the rules, and I love to agree or not. ”

“...... You!"

"I just want to see if we follow in the footsteps of Duke Swanai and pursue across the border, who can do anything about it? The North sneered a few times and added, "Besides, we have good reason to have to cross the border in three days. ”

No way, we don't agree, it's treason, it's a grave crime against the security of the kingdom! This will give the restless Saudis a great cause! The Tsars will raise troops in support of their neighbors!—many nobles roared like this, and the otherwise quiet meeting suddenly became noisy.

The quarrel died down as the nobles of the South-Central Border raised their hands.

The central and southern realms looked at the western and northern realms, and said lightly: "I was going to say it after a while, okay - I also have a "little thing" that only involves myself. The new marquis will send troops to the western frontier and garrison them. ”

"Nonsense! This is obviously a "medium matter"!"

"We have been instructed by Commander Elander and His Majesty to be ready to resist the invasion of the Sand Kingdom from the west, and we have the royal edict in hand. If the Duke of Doom crosses the border with his army after three days, the Marquis will also send troops to the west at the same time. We, hehe, are just "informed" of you. ”

Lohoyo shook his head and sighed, it is simply an impossible task to defend the Sand Country, because there are three routes bordering the South Port, the West Border, and the Northwest Border, and if you really fight, you can only take the initiative to attack and kill the hinterland to win. The question is, it's a loss-making deal...... The land in Saudi Arabia is too barren.

Hathaway frowned and said nothing. She doesn't know you've peeked at her notes yet.

How do you plan to respond to the ruling meeting?

A, stand out from the crowd and agree to pursue in the north

b, with the mainstream opposition
