Chapter Seventy-Five: The Hall Master's Misunderstanding
"What!"
The hall master was stunned for a moment, turned back in disbelief and said, "You say it again!" What happened to the city of the North? ”
"Your Excellency, the northern realm has been ...... It's gone. ”
The archpriest's mouth was full of bitterness: "I just received the news that half a month ago, the undead of the Northern Forest ran out. ”
"They have attacked the city of the North, Bishop Mauriah and Knight Eric have been killed, and none of the Templars have escaped."
The archpriest lowered his head and said in a hoarse voice: "Even the Lucky Eagles are missing, I think the Lucky Eagles should have been discovered by this group of undead." ”
"How is this possible! I've sent out thousands of Templars, and I can't purify a bunch of low-level undead! ”
The hall master's eyes widened, he absolutely couldn't believe that his heroic warrior had been wiped out by a group of low-level undead.
"Tell me how the city of the North fell! Why did it take half a month for the news to come back! ”
The hall master took a deep breath, he was angry, but reason told him that anger would not help.
This matter is too strange, and the hall master feels that there must be a conspiracy in it!
The archpriest shook his head, "I don't know how this group of undead came to conquer the city of the North. ”
The hall master's gaze was like lightning, and he looked directly at the archpriest: "Then how did you know the news?" ”
The archpriest said in a low voice: "After the city of the north was lost, some adventurers and people from the Magic Chamber of Commerce left the north for other cities, and then the news gradually spread, and the news of the loss of the north was known to the temple clergy of other cities. ”
"In the beginning, no one believed this, but after the clergy from other cities in the North secretly traveled to the North to check ......"
"Found a city full of undead!"
"The current northern city no longer belongs to the temple and the empire, and it is full of skeletons, vampires, gargoyles and other undead, there are tens of thousands, and I heard that they are all undead summoned by a large group of undead summoners. The entire northern city has become a veritable city of the dead. ”
Hearing the words of the Grand Priest, the hall master couldn't help but take a deep breath, and his expression was extremely solemn: "In other words, the undead in the Northern Forest are actually the movements made by this group of undead summoners?" ”
"Not bad."
"Could this be a conspiracy of the Academy of Magic? Do they have a purpose or a plot that I have not yet guessed? ”
The hall master frowned and lowered his head in thought.
At first, he thought that the undead in the northern forest were just a coincidence, just a small number of evil creatures created by the magical nerds at the Academy of Magic while studying forbidden magic.
In the Academy of Magic, there is always no shortage of such deviant magicians who secretly study dark magic.
It just so happened that the temple could use this opportunity to suppress the Academy of Magic and eliminate the new generation of potential young magicians in the Academy of Magic.
Even if the Lord decided to send the Templars to the Northerns Forest, his main purpose was not to eliminate the undead lurking in the Northern, but to be wary of any other schemes and means left in the North.
To be reasonable, the number of undead recorded in the history of the Isk continent is pitiful, and even the occasional undead are caused by evil summoning magic and necromancers.
For example, the appearance of a rift in the undead plane recorded in the Divine Codex, leading to a large-scale invasion of the undead, has never been experienced by the Eske Continent.
Therefore, the first time he saw the undead, the hall master's first reaction was that the magic academy was making trouble.
Now, the North has been lost, and the number of undead in the Forest of the North is unexpected.
Even the Templar Legion sent out by the hall master has been wiped out.
"If I'm not mistaken......"
The hall master took a deep breath and muttered, "All this is a conspiracy of the Academy of Magic!" Their target from the beginning was the clergy of the northern part of the Empire! ”
"The temple has little foundation and influence in the North, and the city of the North is full of villains and adventurers, and this group of heretics is not willing to believe in the great God of Light at all."
"But the brilliance of my lord is destined to spread throughout the continent, but when the Academy of Magic learned that the temple began to prepare to spread faith in the north, it deliberately united with the evil undead summoners to attack the members of the temple, wanting to completely control the north!"
The hall master said in a deep voice: "The truth must be like this! Except for the Thorn Flower Magic Academy, there is no place in the entire Eske Continent that can cultivate so many undead summoners! ”
"The northern border is lost, is it the original magic academy that did it?"
The Grand Priest was stunned for a moment, then lowered his head to think, and couldn't help but nod in agreement: "Your Excellency, your analysis is very reasonable, when the Tragic Wind Law robbed Arya, I suspected that the Academy of Magic couldn't help but attack us. ”
Although the Law of the Sorrowful Wind is nominally a wanted villain by both the Temple and the Academy of Magic, the hall master is not stupid, will the wanted villain come to help the Academy of Magic save people for no reason?
The method of the sad wind must have been arranged in advance by the Academy of Magic, and it only appears when necessary.
The hall master believes that the group of undead summoners who suddenly appeared in the northern city must also be the backhands of the secret cultivation of the magic academy, just to attack the temple at a critical moment!
The hall master can be sure that this is a revenge from the Academy of Magic!
Because of Arya's matter, the entire magic academy was angered, causing this group of magicians to take revenge on the temple, so they used the hole card of the undead summoner to attack the northern city.
Obviously, the hall master misunderstood what was happening in the northern city.
He firmly believed that it was the Academy of Magic that was behind the scenes, but in fact, the Thorn Flower Academy of Magic was really wronged this time.
The reality is that a group of players from Earth are dressed in the skin of the undead and are constantly fighting demons in the continent of Esker.
But who will believe these words?
At least the lord of the temple will not believe it.
People in positions of authority will think more about things more complicated, and they will be more likely to associate things with their opponents.
"It's dangerous."
The hall master suddenly sighed: "If it weren't for the fact that Arya was suddenly captured by us to be judged, which attracted the Academy of Magic, which led to what happened later, I'm afraid that Archpriest William would have died in the North by now." ”
The Grand Priest was stunned for a moment, and then realized, his heart was full of fear: "You mean to say that their purpose is to kill the Grand Priest?" ”
The hall master shook his head: "It doesn't have to be the Great Priest, but they will definitely target the northern realm and encircle and suppress the important priesthood members of the temple as much as possible." ”
In the temple, the status of the great priest is second only to the hall master, and any great priest may become the next generation of the hall master, with a noble status.
"If it weren't for our sudden attack on Arya, I'm afraid their purpose would have been achieved, but even then we've lost thousands of Templars and an archbishop."
The hall master muttered to himself: "Magic Academy, what a cruel method! ”
"That'...... Your Excellency, what should we do now? ”
"What else can I do?"
The hall master raised his head, stretched out his hand, and stroked the statue of the God of Light in front of him, he suddenly smiled: "Don't you know yet? Now it's a war. ”
"This is the Academy of Magic's declaration of war against us, and the temple has never feared any enemy!"
"Any pagan who wants to stop the spread of the faith is our enemy, and we must crush all obstacles and suffering!"
The hall master's tone was very resolute, everyone was bullied, how could the temple, as the number one force in the Eske continent, bow his head casually.
Gotta fight back!
"The Lord of the Temple......
The archpriest asked cautiously, "Now that the northern border has been lost, and we don't have clear evidence that all this is the work of the Academy of Magic, we ......"
"Go and make arrangements, I'm going to see Your Majesty."
The hall master said lightly: "I don't need evidence, I just need to take it back to the north!" Destroy the group of undead summoners! ”
"The undead are our mortal enemies, and it is our job to destroy evil, and there is no reason for the Academy of Magic to interfere! They can only watch us destroy this group of evil beings, and they are also their companions. ”
The meaning of the hall master is obvious.
If it was only a small friction, there was no need to alarm His Majesty the King at all.
Hall Master, this is to use the force of the Lion Empire to take back the ownership of the entire northern territory!
"As long as I get it back to the north, I'll slowly settle accounts with that old guy in the magic academy!" Take a look at the latest chapter of "We Are the Scourge Claw Book House" to read for free for the first time.
