When more than half of the clergy in the branch hall of the Temple of Loran retreated back to the Ottoid Empire, even the most unresponsive people sensed the breath of war.

The positions of the four empires are all on the front line of the fight against wizards, and every time before the war, the temple will shrink all its strength back to the imperial headquarters to prevent the wizards from attacking on a large scale.

In addition to the priests of the temple, there are about ten archmages in the Oss Empire, but these strong people are not at the disposal of the temple.

For example, Archmagister Melly, Archmagister Edward, do not participate in the war, only by their own will.

As for those great mage powerhouses who have not been certified by the Magic Association and have never shown their strength, the temple does not know about their existence, and they may not be able to help the temple.

Regardless of whether the Ossian Empire will become a battlefield or not, at least for now, Loren will not be affected.

Chen Luo, Isabella, Britney Spears, and Christine, every few days, would visit Grand Magister Melly together.

In the past few years, Archmage Melly's health has deteriorated, and Christine, despite her objections, transferred several attendants from the palace to serve her closely.

Her mental power is still strong, but her body has come to the end of her life.

It's a pity that no matter how strong the spiritual power is, it must also have a healthy and robust body to maintain it, and when the body dies, the spiritual strength will lose its sustenance.

According to Chen Luo's guess, the Holy Demon Master had a longer lifespan, and what they gained was definitely more than just a change in their spiritual power.

Archmage Melly's face was already covered with brown spots, and Britney held her thin hand and whispered, "Teacher, you better go back to the royal capital and live with us......

"I love being here. Melly clapped her hand and shook her head, "This is my home, ah, our village was here, Uncle Barron's house, right in the place of that tree, don't look at it now that it has grown so tall and strong, back then it was only so tall......"

She raised her hand to a higher level, her eyes full of memories: "Aunt Aina's house, right next to Uncle Barron's house, and we like to eat her baked bread the most......"

Melly whispered, Chen Luo seemed to see the small village by the stream with only a dozen households, but now, there was nothing but grass with scattered wildflowers.

"Later, Uncle Barron died, Aunt Aina also died, and everyone moved to the royal capital, and when I returned from my travels, the village disappeared......"

Melly looked at Catherine and said, "When I'm dead, you're going to bury me there, under that tree......"

Britney's eyes showed sadness, and she didn't take her words, and said, "If the teacher doesn't want to go to the royal capital, I can move here." ”

"No, I don't. Melly smiled and said, "I just said that after I die, I didn't say that I will die now, and before I die, I still want to go to the temple......"

Christine walked over and hurriedly said, "But teacher, your body is ......."

Melly waved her hand and said, "I used to run away, if I couldn't go to the temple before I died, then even if I died, I couldn't close my eyes......"

Christine and Britney's lips moved, but they didn't say anything.

Archmage Melly eventually went to the temple, Christine and Britney's repeated persuasions did not make her change her mind, nothing could curb the archmage's desire for advancement, maybe she had some concerns about the temple before, but now she is not afraid of death, and naturally she is not afraid of anything other than death.

The fear of war still hangs over people's heads, but life has to go on, the vigilance and patrol power of the royal capital has obviously increased, and the price of vegetables has quietly risen by one silver coin.

People began to hoard food, after all, if the war started, in addition to the empire, a small country like Loland would also be affected, and no one knew how many wizards were hiding around them, and perhaps the neighbor who grinned with them every day was the undercover agent of the wizard.

When the war begins, they will create chaos across the continent in order to contain the forces behind the temple, as they have done before.

Although the scholars did not expect the war, they did not feel the nervousness of the magician.

Chen Luo occasionally goes to the Galaxy School, Christine follows Tasia's example, and has carved out an area in the royal capital, as the headquarters of the Galaxy School, there are many scholars in and out of here, Chen Luo smiled and signaled to all the people who saluted him along the way, and his face was a little stiff.

"Is it Sage Blair?"

Chen Luo finally walked out of the school headquarters, and suddenly a figure walked out from the side, looking at him with burning eyes.

This is a middle-aged man, his clothes are shabby, his hair is messy, and his face is unkempt, Chen Luo almost thought he was a beggar at first sight, but a beggar would not have such a wise look.

Of course, beggars generally don't have the cultivation of a great mage.

"My name is Zaratus. The middle-aged man who looked like a beggar looked at Chen Luo and said, "I've been looking for you for a long time." ”

Chen Luo had never met Zaratus, but he had heard his name.

In the era when the four major temples controlled the continent and the whole people believed in the gods of magic, he was the first and only warrior to shout "The gods are dead".

He is a famous philosopher in the Farr continent and a powerhouse at the peak of a great magister.

In order to punish him for his god-reading behavior, the Temple of Fire sent four archmage priests, and at the cost of one dead and three wounded, he still let him escape.

Chen Luo didn't expect him to come to the Oss Empire and to Luolan.

Chen Luo looked at Zaratus and said, "They say you're crazy. ”

Zaratus said, "Do the sages also think I'm crazy?"

Chen Luo nodded and said, "Philosophers are all crazy. ”

A clean smile appeared on Zaratus's not-so-clean face: "I like this sentence. ”

Chen Luo asked, "What are you looking for me for?"

Zaratus looked at him and said, "I went to a lot of scholars and asked them a question, but they couldn't give me an answer, and they all said I was crazy. ”

Chen Luo shook his head and said: "I don't know if the gods are dead or not, I haven't seen a living god, and I haven't seen a dead god, and I can't give you an answer to this question." ”

"No......" Zaratus shook his head and said, "God is alive, but they should die, they are bondage, they are shackles, they live, we can't live well...... Can you understand, Blair Sage?"

Zaratus was the powerhouse of the peak of the Great Magister, and he once tried to advance to the Holy Magister, but ultimately failed.

Everyone said that he was crazy because he couldn't stand the blow of the promotion failure, but Chen Luo didn't think so, geniuses and madmen are often on the same side, and sometimes, a few madmen reveal most of the facts.

"Sage Blair is the wisest man on the continent, Lord Zaratus, do you think he would listen to the hysteria of a madman?"

A voice came from behind Chen Luo, Theodore stood there quietly, looked at Chen Luo, and said, "Your Excellency Blair, we meet again." ”

Zaratus looked at Theodore, with contempt and pity in his eyes, and said, "Foolish fellow who has been blinded by illusion and does not know it, we meet again. ”
