The City of Thorn Flowers.

The mighty imperial army returned to the city not long ago, and I heard that the enemy had attacked the grain and grass, and could not continue to attack the northern city, so they could only come back to rest and replenish the grain and grass.

I don't know who spread this matter, and for a while, many people in the City of Thorn Flowers were quietly discussing this matter.

Hundreds of thousands of troops went out on the expedition, and before they went far, they were burned by the undead!

Alex's face was disgraced.

His Majesty was furious and directly ordered Alex to be removed from his position as marshal, but he was spared his life.

"Alas, Marshal Alex is old, and there is no way to win the battle."

"I heard that God William took the last bit of grain and grass and 100,000 soldiers and killed him directly to the north?"

"Your Excellency the Grand Priest of the Temple! At the critical moment, we also need the temple to reclaim the lost land for us! ”

"But I heard that it was because of His Excellency Father William's blind pursuit of the enemy, the main force of the Imperial Legion was attracted by the undead, and finally all the Legion food was burned."

"Can you blame Your Excellency the Archpriest? In the face of the existence of evil, as a clergyman, it is natural to purify evil! I've heard that it was the mage legion of the Academy of Magic who refused to attack the enemy with all their might, which led to the final defeat of the war! ”

The voices of discussion in the City of Thorn Flowers are basically divided into two factions.

One faction is dominated by the temple, and the other faction is dominated by the magic academy, and the two are pouring dirty water on each other, and anyone with a discerning eye can see that the trend of public opinion has been kneaded into political factors.

Most smart people don't have an opinion at this time.

Everyone was waiting for news that Archpriest William had brought from the North.

Regardless, everyone on the surface hoped that Archpriest William would win and succeed in retaking the city of the North.

......

Thorn Flower Academy of Magic.

Andrew looked at the old dean who was lying on the bench basking in the sun, and couldn't help but smile bitterly and said, "Your Excellency, why aren't you in a hurry at all?" It's been almost half a month, and William has no news at all. ”

The dean squinted his eyes slightly, and said lazily: "No news is good news." ”

Andrew suspected that the old guy might be falling asleep in the next second.

"Your Excellency, aren't you worried that William will succeed in conquering the Northern City?"

Andrew was worried: "Arya and Sad Wind are now in the Northern City, if William defeats the Northern City, they will definitely not be able to escape." ”

"No, it won't."

The dean's voice was very soft: "William doesn't have this ability yet, if Sorrowful Wind makes a move, the 100,000 Imperial Legion will not be his opponent, not to mention that the group of undead is not an easy existence to deal with." ”

"Knowing how to use sneak attacks and division tactics, do you think this is still an ordinary group of undead?"

"That's what Your Excellency the Dean said."

Andrew nodded: "But I'm still a little worried." ”

The dean waved his hand lazily: "Okay, okay, let's go, let me sleep well." ”

Andrew reluctantly turned away.

After a while, Andrew hurried in again and woke up His Excellency the Dean, who was sleeping soundly: "What's wrong with you! ”

"Your Excellency, Your Majesty the King, please go to the palace."

"What's the matter?"

"I heard that Father William had an accident."

"Aha."

His Excellency the Dean was no longer sleepy, he suddenly became energetic, straightened up from the recliner, and said with a smile: "Look, you don't have to worry about the safety of Alia anymore. ”

Andrew nodded, a smile in his eyes.

......

The City of Thorn Flowers, the Palace of the Lion.

His Majesty the King and the Hall Master had been waiting for a long time, and in addition to the two of them, there were also ministers of the Lion Empire, gathered together.

The old dean came slowly with his cane, he was late, but no one could bear to reprimand an old man who looked like he was about to die.

"Teacher, you're here."

The Lion King was a middle-aged man with a majestic face and luxurious clothes that set off his extraordinary temperament.

"Your Majesty."

The old dean carried out court etiquette with gentle movements, and his attitude was very respectful.

"The teacher may not know that William is dead."

His Majesty spoke in a deep voice, looked at the old dean, and informed him of the news.

"Oh."

The old dean nodded, probably thinking that his attitude was a little too perfunctory, and he lowered his head and sighed: "It's a pity, what a good child." ”

A clergyman of the level of the Grand Priest, even if he dies in a different place, the headquarters of the Temple of Light will receive the news as soon as possible.

The death of the Grand Priest cannot be hidden, and there is a special magic that can notify the temple of it.

Archpriest William led his army to the North, and now that Archpriest is dead, and the Knights Templar and Imperial Legionnaires have not returned, everyone can already guess that the undead of the Northern City have done a good thing.

The Lion King glanced at everyone and said in a deep voice: "The teacher has also come, let's continue to discuss, I want to listen to your opinions, how to deal with the affairs of the northern city!" ”

"Your Majesty."

The hall lord was the first to stand up, and his tone was resolute: "I insist on my opinion, the army should be reorganized and the city of the northern realm should be attacked!" ”

"That's right! I agree with Your Excellency's suggestion! ”

Immediately, the minister of the Lion Empire stood up, his face full of anger, and his tone was serious: "Father William can't die in vain, we must continue to attack the northern city and teach this group of undead a lesson!" ”

"Evil creatures have defiled our lands, leaving the people of the Empire in the north under a shroud of darkness! We want to dispel the darkness of the North and bring new light to our people! ”

"I'm also in favor of sending troops, and in order to prevent the undead from sneaking up on the Imperial Legion again, I recommend splitting up the troops! 300,000 soldiers per legion! Divide into four directions and besiege the North! ”

......

The ministers of the Lion Empire kept coming forward and put forward their opinions one after another.

The old dean looked at the past, and oh! Good guys, dozens of ministers are in favor of continuing the offensive! Two-thirds of the ministers are supporting the Lord of the Hall of Light!

The old dean smiled and did not speak.

It seems that the information he has is not wrong, His Majesty the King trusts the temple master, not because the hall master has cured his illness, but because the temple of light has interfered with the political power of the core of the empire.

Theocracy and imperialism are always incompatible contradictions, and there will be disputes between the two.

The hall master obviously overlooked the fact that although the king of the Lion Empire was a believer in the God of Light, he was also an emperor and a man who held imperial power.

How could such a high-ranking existence be willing to be controlled by divine power.

Sure enough.

The Lion King was silent, and did not say anything in the face of the opinions of the impassioned ministers, and turned a deaf ear.

The old dean muttered, "It seems that His Majesty has not yet become a fanatic, but this is good news." ”

The old dean saw it clearly.

His Majesty asked the ministers to discuss, ostensibly for the sake of the Northern City, but the purpose was to see who would take sides and who would be members of the faction of the Lord of Light.

"Your Majesty, don't hesitate!"

The hall master continued: "The northern city is the territory of the Lion Empire, and it cannot be ceded to an evil existence! We must take it back! ”

The hall master's face was full of seriousness and justice, so that the old dean couldn't help but admire, what a loyal courtier for the country.

The Lion King didn't reply, but looked at the old dean: "Teacher, what do you think?" ”

"Huh?"

The old dean was stunned for a moment and smiled: "I think His Excellency the hall master has a lot of friends, and so many people agree with one sentence, which is really enviable." ”

The hall master's face was suffocated, and he looked at the old dean with a gloomy face, and was silent.

The old guy was taunting him.

"Teacher, I'm asking you what to do about the northern city?"

The lion king is very helpless, the teacher's temper has not changed at all, and he has always been unaccustomed to the style of the Temple of Light.

The Lion King also dislikes the Temple of Light, but the Temple of Light is deeply rooted in the Lion Empire, and the citizens and ministers have been believers in the Light since childhood, even if the king doesn't like it, there is no way.

This is a political malaise left by the fathers, and the king will not be able to solve it for a while.

The old dean shook his head: "I'm old, my opinion doesn't matter, Your Majesty the King, you can do whatever you want." ”

His Majesty immediately spoke: "The teacher has always been a great and wise magician in my heart, and your opinion is important to me. ”

The Lord of the Hall of Light sneered secretly, what a master-apprentice relationship.

The old dean smiled and said, "Then I said it?" ”

His Majesty's tone was serious: "Please teach me, teacher." ”

"Summation!"

The old dean said categorically: "Seek peace with the city of the north!" ”

His Majesty was stunned, and a hint of disappointment flashed imperceptibly in his eyes.

The Hall of Light Lord smiled.

"Your Excellency, you are really old! You're scared! ”

The hall lord sneered and said, "The undead have robbed our northern border, why do we ask for peace!" ”

"Could it be that just because they killed William and 100,000 Imperial soldiers, His Excellency the Dean was afraid?"

"Our Lion Empire is the most powerful empire in the Eske Continent! We are not afraid of any enemy! The light of God hangs over us forever! ”

The hall master said loudly: "Your Majesty! I'm willing to lead the army into battle! I'd rather die in the North than live in humiliation! I am willing to disperse all evil and enemies for the Empire! The latest chapter of "We Are the Disaster Claw Book House" is free to read for the first time.
