Chapter 822: Preparing for War

At this moment, the eyes of all the members of the Nording family also turned to that team, only to see that it was a team of two hundred people, the speed of these two hundred people was also extremely fast, and their bodies were also fully armed, and the sharp blade in their hands had already been unsheathed, and under the sunlight, it bloomed with dazzling cold light. Jing Chen looked at it, and couldn't help but gasp, the team of two hundred people in front of him turned out to be all strong people above the third level.

At this moment, Jingchen even had an illusion in his heart, could it be that the Nording family and the Lange family had already gathered all the powerhouses above the third level in Dores City? Although these powerhouses above the third level were not too rare, I am afraid that there would be no five hundred in the entire Dores City, and most of these five hundred powerhouses above the third level were still in the military of Dores City, and they were more or less subject to the constraints of the military of the French Empire.

Now Jingchen has finally understood that these big families who can operate for hundreds of thousands of years are not good people, and once the hidden strength is gathered, I am afraid that even the officials of the French Empire will have to give some face. However, at this moment, the performance of the Patriarch of Domon also made Jingchen a little admired, although he had the one hundred and ten enchantment balls he gave to Domon as a basis, but in the face of the Lange family, whose strength was obviously stronger than the Nordin family, Patriarch Domon's face did not fluctuate at all, but in the depths of his eyes, Jingchen saw a cold glow that flashed in an instant.

The people of the Lange family stopped a hundred meters away from the Nordin family, and walking in front of the Lange family was the black power suit, wearing a magic armor outside, as the former patriarch of the Lange family, after the death of his son, he naturally took over the position of the head of the family, and continued to take charge of the family that had been in business for hundreds of years.

Seeing the people of the Notting family who had already lined up in formation, Kabi's face also showed a sneer, "Domon, Kunde, your Notin family came very early, are you in such a hurry to merge into our Lange family?"

Domon calmly glanced at Kabi on the other side, and said lightly, "Before the gambling fight starts, you already know who wins and who loses?" There was an undisguised sarcasm in his words.

Kabi was slightly stunned, and then his face sank, and said, "That's natural, what, do you think your Nording family still has a chance today? Or obediently merge into my Lange family, maybe I will be soft-hearted for a while, and I will let you live, but if you insist on this, I'm afraid that today next year will be your Domon Nordin's sacrifice day." ”

Domon snorted coldly and said, "Merge into your Lange family?" You said it so lightly, even if I die here today, I will completely destroy your Lange family, I want to see how you annexed my Nordin lineage." ”

Kabi was about to continue to speak, when a somewhat indifferent philistine voice suddenly sounded, "Domon, are you still going to resist today?" I saw a man with slightly gray hair flash behind Kabi, this man was dressed in a light blue robe, holding a magic wand surging with powerful spiritual power in his hand, and a pair of somewhat cold eyes, staring at Domon tightly at the moment, as if he wanted to see Domon through.

At this moment, everyone's eyes in the field were focused on this man, and the next moment, many people let out an exclamation, not because of how strong this person was, but because this person was too familiar to the strong men of the French Empire, it was the teacher of Zhiyun Lange, Master Byron.

Although the Nording family also has Jingchen, a strong enchanter, but Jingchen's age is still young after all, and the accumulation of connections obviously cannot be compared with Byron, who has lived for hundreds of years, at this moment, those strong people who have been hired by the Nording family for a lot of money, some of them are also retreating in their hearts, after all, no matter what, it is very unwise to offend a sixth-level enchanter for the interests of the Nording family, and whether this benefit can be obtained in the end is still between the two.

"This is Byron?" Jingchen asked Ferding beside him suspiciously.

Furding nodded with a gloomy face, and said, "This is the sixth-level enchanter named Byron, although his own strength is not very good, and it is a bit reluctant to be called a master, but his brother-in-law is a real sixth-level peak enchanter, a real quasi-master." Not only that, but his brother-in-law is also the vice president of the Enchanted Hall in Fran City, you must know that the general association of the enchanters is also in Fran City, although it is not in the same place as the Enchanted Hall branch in Fran City, but the name of this branch president is naturally much more famous than in other places, and the influence is not the same. At the end of the day, Fordin's face became more and more ugly.

Jing Chen nodded thoughtfully, for him, this Byron and his brother-in-law, the vice president of the Enchanted Hall Branch in Falan City, Jing Chen didn't care too much, after all, whether it was Jing Chen's teacher, Master Alpha, or Master Alpha's friends, most of them were seventh-level or even higher-level enchanters, so Jingchen didn't care much about this Byron, who was only a sixth-level Byron.

Of course, there is another reason why Jingchen doesn't care, the general enchanter, especially the senior enchanter, although they also have combat professions, most of the enchanters are obsessed with the study of enchantment, and they are so-so about the combat profession. Just like his teacher Alpha, although he is also a seventh-level space magician, his strength is probably not as good as his current self. The reason for this is that these high-level enchanters have invested too much experience in the study of enchantment and neglected their combat profession.

Seeing the coming, Domon's face also showed a trace of bitterness, afraid of something, this worst-case situation seems to have appeared now, despite this, Domont squeezed out a smile and said, "Master Byron, I don't know when you arrived in Dores City, Domon is far away, I hope you will forgive me." As he spoke, he arched his hand and paused, only to hear Domon continue, "Master Byron, this gambling is a private matter between our Nordin family and the Lange family, with your identity, why bother to wade into this muddy water." ”

Although this sentence is said by Domon as a bit of a show of weakness, the whole sentence is not entirely a show of weakness, and its main meaning is to hope that Byron will not get involved. Of course, it's not that Domon is afraid of Byron, he has those enchantment balls given by Jingchen, not to mention a Byron, even a few more sixth-level powerhouses Domon is not afraid, but he must think about his family. As a local force, it was obviously not advisable to offend a sixth-level enchanter, not to mention that the background of this sixth-level enchanter was still a bit complicated.

Byron was obviously unwilling to stop there, only to see him smile coldly, and said in a commanding tone, "Domon, I miss the head of your Nordin family, I didn't want you to be too unrelievable, but today, if you don't merge the Nordin family into the Lange family, not only you, I'm afraid the entire Nordin family will not see the sun tomorrow." As he spoke, he pointed to the strong men who were invited to stand behind Domon, and said, "And you, if you leave now, I will treat it as if nothing happened, and if you are obsessed, you will prepare to bury the Nordin family." After saying that, Byron snorted coldly, and his cold gaze swept to the helpers who were invited by the Nordin family.

The few people who were originally retreating had even more thoughts of retreating at this moment, and seeing that Domon's gaze was also over, those people turned their heads one after another, not daring to meet Domon's gaze.

Domon sighed secretly, seeing the appearance of these people, he also had a trace of bitterness in his heart, but for these undecided people, Domon was simply listening, only to hear Domon say slowly, "Everyone, if there are people who want to quit now, I Domon will never stop it, but if you don't want to quit now, you will stumble on my Nordin family behind my back for a while, I can't say ......" Domon gave his father Kunde a vague look. True to the father and son, Kunde immediately understood what Domon meant, and a fierce momentum suddenly gushed out from his body, and the terrifying part of that momentum was so terrifying that even the air was squeezed into a light sound.

"One to twenty?" The middle-aged man was slightly stunned, nodded, and said, "This price is fair, with your family's current situation, I'm afraid you will give it if you ask for a little more." After speaking, the middle-aged man pondered for a long time and said, "Old man, for your sake, I will definitely help you get this batch of materials, but I'm afraid you won't be able to enjoy such a big discount at this price, and the amount of materials you want is really a bit large......"

Before the middle-aged man could finish speaking, Domon spoke, "As long as you can get the materials, money is not a problem, when is this coming? The family business is gone, isn't it for people to have more money?" At this moment, a touch of sadness also appeared on Domon's face, as if the Nording family was about to be wiped out.

The middle-aged man was also stunned when he saw Domon's appearance, and then sighed, patted Domon's shoulder, and said, "No matter when, we will always be brothers, if it really can't work, bring nephews and nieces and them, come to me to avoid it, no matter how arrogant the Lange family is, they will not dare to clash head-on with the Enchantment Hall." ”

Grabbing the middle-aged man's hand on his shoulder, Domon's heart was also moved, when he was still an intern in the Enchantment Hall, he thought about learning enchantment from this middle-aged man, but unfortunately, he had almost no talent for practicing enchantment, but at that time, he formed a fairly deep relationship with this middle-aged man. Later, when Domon's internship ended, when he left, the middle-aged man invited him to his home for a light meal, but this friendship also ended with Domon's departure.

Unexpectedly, a few years ago, the middle-aged man was transferred to the branch of Dores City by the Enchanted Hall, and the two met again.

As the saying goes, where there are people, there are rivers and lakes, and there are various factions in the Enchantment Hall, and this middle-aged man himself is average in strength, and he is on the wrong team, so he was assigned to this Dores City. Although the city of Dores is also a frontier town, its significance is only to deal with the demonic beasts, and there is no dispute with neighboring countries. Therefore, only when the beast tide comes, this Dores City will be lively for a while, and there is hardly a large flow of people here, and caravans are rare.

After coming here, the middle-aged man also thought of Domon, who almost became his student's old friend, and went to the Notting family manor with a relaxed mood, but he didn't expect to really meet Domon who had just returned from Fran City, and the two met at the first time, and Domon was very moved by the middle-aged man just like he was at the beginning. Originally, Domon still wanted to perform the teacher-student ceremony, but was sternly rejected by the middle-aged man, so the two have always been called brothers now.

The middle-aged man groaned slightly, and said slowly, "I'll go to the material library, you wait for me here, and we'll hand over here in a while." With that, the middle-aged man walked out of the office slowly.

The waiting time is always long, especially at this moment, with the mood of Domon, waiting here feels even longer, and the middle-aged man has not come back for a long time.

"Squeak" Just when Domon was waiting a little impatiently, the middle-aged man pushed the door and walked in.

"How's it going?" Domon asked with some eagerness when he saw the middle-aged man come in.

"Fortunately, I was not dishonored. As he spoke, the middle-aged man took out an ordinary space ring and handed it to Domon, saying, "Look at it, it's not these things." As he spoke, he handed the list in his other hand to Domon.

"Brother is doing things, how can Domon not be trustworthy, these materials are expensive?" After Domon put away the space ring, he looked up at the middle-aged man and asked.

"Forget it this time, these materials are all accumulated by me over the years, just when I help you, there are a lot of eyeliner of the Lange family here, I didn't dare to mention it from the material library, so as not to cause trouble for you." The middle-aged man smiled and waved his hand.

"How can this make my brother able to help my brother, my brother is already very grateful to you, if I let you break the bank again, then what will I be? You collect this money, although it is not much, but it is also a little bit of meaning to be a brother. As he spoke, a crystal card appeared in Domon's hand, and although the middle-aged man refused a few times, he was finally forced into Domon's hand.

"Since you have a heart, old man, I will accept it. As he spoke, he groaned slightly, stretched out his right hand, and a silver light flashed, and he saw three enchantment balls exuding rich spiritual power appear in the middle-aged man's hand. The middle-aged man looked down at the enchantment ball in his hand, raised his head and said to Domon, "These three fifth-level enchantment balls, although they are not high-end goods, they are also things that I have carefully made over the years, so I will give them to you, brother, I hope you and the Nordin family can get through this difficulty." With that, he put the three enchanted balls in Domon's hand.

Looking at the enchanted ball in his hand, a trace of emotion welled up in Domon's eyes, the world often says, the icing on the cake is easy, it is difficult to send charcoal in the snow, and the middle-aged man can send these three enchanted balls at this time, which shows his feelings for himself. Thinking of this, Domon did not shirk, and carefully put away the three enchanted balls. After the matter was done, Domon did not delay any longer, and said goodbye to the middle-aged man, the middle-aged man still sent Domon to the back door, watching Domon leave slowly, watching the carriage disappear at the end of the road, the middle-aged man sighed, as if he remembered himself back then, and a trace of loneliness flashed in his eyes.

Jingchen didn't leave his room today, even if it was breakfast, it was sent into his room by the servant, he ate in the room, no one knew what Jingchen was busy with, but thinking of what Jingchen promised to do for the patriarch Domeng last night, no one dared to disturb Jingchen.

This guest room is very tidy, although there are not many furnishings, but it also shows the atmosphere of the rich and noble, if someone else breaks in, you will be surprised to find that at this moment in Jingchen's room, Jingchen is not alone, an old man with a faint white light is sitting opposite Jingchen.

"Teacher, do you think I'm fit to fuse this fragment right now?" Jingchen dragged the fragment of the scroll he had obtained by completing the mission of the Earth Watch Council in one hand, and looked up at Rios on the other side.

After a moment's hesitation, Rios said slowly, "Although you have fused this fragment of the page, which can once again exude the energy that can actively protect you within this silver ring, I think this is not a good time to fuse. After a pause, Rios continued, "First of all, the silver energy is not controlled by you, but the completely spontaneous behavior of this silver ring, when you were not strong, it was nothing, and now with the improvement of your strength, it will undoubtedly waste a lot of energy; ”

Listening to Ríos's words, Jingchen also nodded slightly, and looked down at the silver ring, this silver ring did help Jingchen a lot when he first obtained it, and even saved Jingchen's life, but with the improvement of Jingchen's strength and the increase of life-saving means, the role of this silver ring can only be said to be better than nothing. After all, as Rios said, the protection of this silver ring was not transferred by his consciousness.

"Actually, these are nothing, the most important thing is that every time you fuse, you need to consume a lot of blood, and the consumption of blood is not something that can be regenerated in a short time, and now the battle between the Nordin family and the Lange family is imminent, so I don't recommend you to fuse this fragment. Ríos concluded.

"Well, I see, after this incident, let's find time to fuse this fragment, and I'm not in a hurry now. Jingchen nodded in response.

In the distance, three people walked from the direction of the Odin Mountains, all three of them were wearing robes similar to magicians' robes, with huge hoods covering their faces, but it was not difficult to see from the figure that the two people walking in front should be men, and the one walking behind was a woman.

The three of them slowly walked to the north gate of Dores City, only to hear one of them say in a somewhat old voice, "It's been more than four months, and I finally don't have to face those demonic beasts all day long, eating demonic beast meat all day long, and the birds are going to fade out of my mouth." ”

"Old ghost, you still say, you are here to save your students, and what about me? I was completely deceived by you, you still dare to complain, be careful that I kill you!" There was a smell of vicissitudes in this voice, and it was obvious that this person was probably not too young.

Hearing this voice, the person who spoke before smiled awkwardly, and stopped talking, and the three of them walked slowly towards Dores City.

Since he got the enchantment materials sent by Domon personally at noon that day, Jingchen has even rested for two hours instead of cultivating the starry sky every day in addition to eating, and he has been sitting in the house behind closed doors all day long, rushing to make these enchantment balls. Jingchen is the kind of person who doesn't agree, as long as he agrees, he will do his best, so for what Domeng entrusts, Jingchen is also doing his best, and strives to do his best.

Of course, it is worth mentioning that in the nearly three days of continuous production of the enchantment ball, the wild magic power in Jingchen's body actually broke through to the sixth-level intermediate level unconsciously, with his current strength, not only is it stronger than Kunde, even if it is against an ordinary sixth-level high-level powerhouse, with Jingchen's many means, it is also easy.

During the period when Jingchen was refining the enchantment ball behind closed doors, the atmosphere between the Nording family and the Lange family in Dores City was also becoming more and more tense, and on the second day of Jingchen's closed-door refining of the enchantment ball, the Lange family saw the opportunity and took back many of the shops occupied by the Bennotin family, and some small families who were still watching suddenly threw themselves into the arms of the Lange family, and for a while, the Nordin family was also very passive.

Fortunately, Kunde came forward in time with a group of people, and also stifled the arrogance of the Lange family, and snatched several large shops of the Lange family in one fell swoop.

It was night, in the Notting Family Chamber.

"Damn, these grandsons of the Lange family are actually playing yin, those big shops have been destroyed by the Lange family who are leaving, even if they want to repair it, I'm afraid it won't be a matter of a while, this time it's a big loss!" A middle-aged man sitting on the right hand side who looked a little like Domeng said angrily.

Tomorrow is the day of the gambling fight, at this moment in the hall, the core members of the Nordin family are all present, at this moment, everyone's face is a little gloomy, obviously, these core members of the Nordin family are not in a good mood at the moment.

"These things that have been released in advance, tomorrow's gambling fight, how are the preparations?" Kunde sighed, he didn't care about these gains and losses at the moment, he was concerned about tomorrow's gambling fight, if he lost tomorrow, it would be useless to grab more shops now, and even the Nordin family would not exist at that time, and those shops would naturally have to be renamed.

The middle-aged man who had just spoken had a stunned expression, and then smiled bitterly, "What else?" We have invited all those who can be invited, but I heard that Byron may come, and most of them have not replied, and those who come are all friends with the family, but they still seem a little thin." "It's true, the Nording family has also been taken care of by Domont in the past few years, and it has gradually gained power, and the accumulation of contacts is naturally not comparable to the Lange family, and I heard that it is possible to offend a sixth-level enchanter, many people are also retreating, don't say please, even if they are hired, they are not willing to come.

At this moment, everyone's eyes were focused on Domon, although Domon, as the head of the family, was not outstanding, but his resourcefulness has always been admired by the older generation of the family, otherwise the previous head of the family would not have let Domon, his nephew, inherit the family business.

I saw Domon, who was sitting on the main seat, nodded with a gloomy face, he had expected this situation a long time ago, even if the Lange family did not invite Byron, but no one was willing to take this risk for his Nording family, after all, the friendship is still shallow, which is also human nature.

"I don't know what happened to those enchantment balls made by Master Jingchen......" In the hall, I don't know who whispered.

Hearing this, many people in the hall were stunned, they raised their heads and looked around for a long time, but they really didn't find Jingchen's figure, it stands to reason that such an important occasion should not be without Jingchen, at this moment, many people's hearts are slightly shocked, if this young strong man does not help the Nordin family, then this gambling fight may not even be necessary.

"Fuding, where is Xiaochen?" Domon raised his head and looked at his son suspiciously, he clearly remembered that he had just asked Fuding to personally invite Jingchen to come to the meeting hall, and Fuding was already present at this moment, but Jingchen was nowhere to be seen, and his heart couldn't help but sink a little.

"Dad, you don't have to worry, I went to find Boss Jing just now, and when I saw that he was still making enchantment balls, I withdrew and didn't bother him, but he also saw me at that time, and I thought that I would come after I was busy for a while." As he spoke, Ferding looked out of the hall.

In the corner of the hall, there are the young generation of the Nordin family, looking at the gloomy faces of their parents, they don't dare to interject indiscriminately, this oppressive atmosphere has a kind of fear in their hearts.

"Sister Shu Ya, I heard that Master Jingchen is about the same age as us, is he really that strong? The hopes of our Nording family are actually pinned on him?" A little girl sitting next to Miss Shu Ya asked softly about Shu Ya beside her, this Shu Ya looked less than twenty years old, her black hair hung down to her waist, and a pair of bright eyes were embedded in her pretty face like beautiful jade, and she was so delicate and moving.

Hearing this, Shu Ya smiled slightly, and said in a low voice, "That Master Jingchen is a fifth-level enchanter, and he is not yet twenty years old, and he is an extremely powerful existence, such a genius and brilliant person, not to mention our French Empire, even if it is on the entire continent, I am afraid it will be difficult to find the second one." After speaking, Shu Ya's face also flashed with awe, even if Jingchen's age is not mentioned, a fifth-level enchanter alone is enough to make most people awe-inspired, not to mention, this fifth-level enchanter is still a young man under the age of twenty.

"A fifth-level enchanter under the age of twenty?!" the little girl seemed to think of something, and a hint of awe flashed on her delicate little face.

On this continent, many people are not in awe of the enchanters themselves, but the connections behind those enchanters, this is like a chain reaction, once someone touches the enchanter, the retribution must be endless, just thinking about the scene of being beaten to death by someone is enough to make anyone's heart chill.

"If only I could become an enchanter...... the little girl said with some wistfulness.

"Alas. Shu Ya sighed softly and didn't say much, in this world, there are many people who want to become an enchanter, even if she herself has had a dream of becoming an enchanter, but unfortunately, the reality is cruel, not only her Shu Ya, but countless people's dreams are shattered in the face of that harsh test. Having said that, it is precisely because the conditions for becoming an enchanter are so harsh, that is why the enchanters on this continent are so popular, otherwise any person can become an enchanter, how can the enchanter make the major families so crazy.

"Don't be delusional, if you have the potential to become an enchanter, the family will already focus on cultivating you, and you can still sit with the rest of us?" a little boy sitting next to the little girl unceremoniously poured a basin of cold water on her.

The little girl who was a little sluggish by the little boy pouted, and when she was about to cry, a hearty laugh suddenly sounded in the hall, and the owner of the laughter said slightly apologetically, "I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I've made you wait for a long time, Xiaochen, I'm here to apologize to you." ”

At this moment, whether the old or the young, the male or the female, everyone's eyes were focused on the person who spoke, although they had heard a lot of rumors about this Jingchen master, but when they really saw it, many people still let out a low cry, they really didn't expect that this Jingchen was really so young, it looked like he was fifteen or sixteen years old, many people were so shocked by this reality that they couldn't even speak, they could only look at Jingchen in a daze.
