The most striking sacred mountain in the Sacred City, halfway up the mountain, has a small two-story building that stands alone.

This is a holy place in the eyes of many Terran players, and it is what they strive for!

This is the headquarters of the Angel's Covenant, which is entirely owned by the Angel's Covenant and is by far the only building in the Holy City that is entirely owned by the player.

Stepping into this two-story building means becoming a member of the Angel's Covenant, which is an honor to be boasted about in the eyes of many Terrans, and even some players of other races.

A room on the south side of the second floor is where Raphael works, where she controls the operation of the entire Angelic Covenant.

At this time, in addition to Raphael, who was sitting in a chair, there was also a female mage with beautiful long purple hair and holding a long-handled staff embellished with astral stones.

"President, everything is ready!" The female mage sat on a chair, resting her feet on the table without grace, looking like a bad girl.

Raphael seemed to have long been accustomed to this guy's rudeness, and he didn't bother to let her sit upright, buried his head and looked at the information in his hand, and asked, "How are those guys?" Are you still singing the opposite tune as you used to? ”

"Haha, they are good now, since they were taught a hard lesson by that death knight in the undead clan, and even a few pieces of equipment that were exchanged for bankruptcies have turned into a pile of broken copper and iron, now they are even careful to speak, and they are even more afraid that they will be slaughtered if they go out!"

"This is also karma, who let them always rely on their equipment to bully those ordinary players before."

The female mage said with a smile: "If you want me to say that you are still powerful, you will directly ask for the power to exchange military merits from the quartermaster, so that even if those guys have more military merits, we don't exchange them for him, and he can only keep eating ashes!" ”

"It's just a player-oriented military merit exchange power, I can't control those who have a formal military position, not to mention, I can't get stuck too badly in this matter, otherwise they should say bad things about me again!" Raphael set aside one document in his hand and picked up the other and looked at it.

"If you want me to say, just clean them out, it's nothing more than someone behind them, and I'm not afraid that there will be nowhere to go after leaving here. It's not that this kind of scum hasn't been dealt with, so why be polite to them! ”

"It's an eventful season, so let's have less turmoil or less turmoil! Otherwise, the other members don't know how to think nonsense. One chapter president, three vice presidents, and more than fifty elites are not a small number. The impact of the defeat of the ruins of Shasar last time has finally passed, and at this time, when such a big news comes out, do you think that the bell is not busy enough? Raphael raised her head and glared at the mage, and in the face of Raphael's majestic eyes, even the always smug smug lowered her legs resting on the table and stuck out her tongue.

"What, President, Her Royal Highness the princess won't be holding back any longer in this action, right?" Seeing that Raphael looked down at the documents again, the female mage asked, "Fortunately, the matter of Raven Ridge was successful this time, and the Holy See came forward to testify, and Her Royal Highness the princess couldn't criticize anything, but it's always like this, it's always uncomfortable!" ”

"Don't worry, this operation was unanimously decided by the Holy See and all human kingdoms, even Princess Lana will not object, on the contrary, she will fully support this operation." Raphael said, "What's more, this time, except for those who are suspicious, they will all go to Sky City, and it is through the hands of Princess Lana that those hidden dangers have been solved." ”

"It turns out that the president has already made arrangements! Haha, that princess is not easy to fool, maybe when the time comes, she will directly kill those bastard guilds in a fit of anger, so that they have no place to cry! Hearing Raphael's words, the female mage danced with joy, and almost danced on the spot.

"That's it! I really don't know how you can calm down and learn magic, Dalaran's reputation has been lost to you! Are you sure everything is in place, tiramisu? ”

Tiramisu knew what Raphael really wanted to ask, and immediately fell silent, at this time, it seemed that this long-haired female mage was indeed a standard magician, and she could feel a feeling of "this is the orthodox mage" from her.

"Everything is ready to go! After such a long period of screening and training, coupled with the actual combat test of Nanhai Town, the first to fourth elite regiments have met our requirements, and the regiment commanders have also been served by reliable personnel. Tiramisu reported in a serious tone, "In terms of reserve forces, although the fifth to eighth elite groups have not yet undergone systematic training and preparation, the screening of core personnel has been completed, and they can be supplemented to the first few elite groups at any time when needed." ”

"What about the Knights?"

"Camilla has completed the initial formation, and the knight order of one hundred and fifty people has all been put in place, but because the corresponding equipment is relatively difficult to obtain, the level of preparation is less than sixty percent. As for the other knight order composed purely of NPCs, because of the help of Cardinal Meradel, both equipment and training have been completed, the only problem is the level, you know, the level of those NPCs is completely different from our players, so if you want to meet our requirements, I'm afraid it will take a while. ”

"Camilla's knights are acting with me this time, and the equipment problem can be put aside for now! The Guardian Shield Knights are the top priority, Tiramisu, don't underestimate the NPCs, their strength may be worse than those so-called elite players, but they are far stronger than elite players in discipline and obedience, we can't walk on just one leg, the advantages of the players are obvious, but the disadvantages are also outstanding, this time Nolan their matter is the best evidence. Raphael said with a straight face.

Tiramisu nodded: "I know, I will work with the bell to focus on the guardian shield, Camila's Radiance Impact Knights let Camila and Wren take care of it, anyway, the most troublesome initial formation has been completed, and the rest is daily training and mutual cooperation." ”

"Well, this can only make Camilado trouble! There are also those professional spars in stock, all of which are below the fourth order are taken out, and you and the bell formulate a suitable exchange price, so that these materials can be converted into actual combat power as soon as possible! ”

"Okay, what about those high-level professional hedrons? Wasn't there a batch of champion knights' professional hedron in the warehouse not long ago? ”

"I'm going to use those professional hedrons on the Guardian Shield, what do you think?" Raphael looked up at Tiramisu and consulted with her.

Tiramisu opened his mouth, as if he wanted to object, but finally nodded in agreement: "I have no opinion, but many people have seen these professional spars when they are in storage, and I am afraid that some people will think that it is inappropriate to deal with them in this way." ”

"Not suitable?" Raphael sneered, "Then you tell them that if they can sign a three-year contract with the Angel's Covenant, strictly abide by the orders of the Angel's Covenant during the contract period, and be held legally responsible for terminating the contract without reason or breaking the contract to change jobs, then I will not only give them these professional spars, but also pay them a suitable amount of cash every month as a salary!" Square peg? Hmph, are they treating the Angel's Covenant as a welfare institution and a nursing home? ”

"Haha, stop the rage! Hopefully, anger will increase wrinkles! Tiramisu immediately said with a smile, she also knew that these high-level professional spars could not be treated in the same way as those ordinary professional spars, after all, the player's mobility is too great, you gave him good things today, and tomorrow they will be poached by other guilds in the blink of an eye, and it is impossible for you to take things out of each other at that time, so any regular guild will have a set of strict contracts as constraints, and the angel covenant is actually very lenient in this regard.

"Okay, don't cover for them, I don't know who's staring at this batch of high-end goods behind my back!" After all, Tiramisu is her own cronies, and Raphael will not be too harsh on her, this kind of thing is something in every guild, and how to deal with it can only rely on the ability of the president, in this regard, Raphael does not have much experience, fortunately, Yu Bin has been providing support behind the scenes, with the experience of his previous life, Raphael can be comfortable in many situations.

Tiramisu snorted embarrassedly: "Hehe, President, you know, after all, everyone is here to play games, and it makes sense for this kind of thing to happen!" Don't worry, I'll do their job! ”

"Yes!" Raphael replied noncommittally, "We must prepare enough supplies to have a margin, we will leave in the evening the day after tomorrow, and the specific time and destination will be communicated to everyone an hour before departure!" If there are special circumstances that make it impossible to attend, the head of the regiment must be informed one day in advance, otherwise it will be regarded as an unexcused absence and will be directly demoted to the four reserve elite regiments. ”

"Has the meeting place been decided? The Holy See is moving so fast! I thought they couldn't get enough of the celebrations outside! ”

"The meeting place is in a secret fortress in the Arnas Empire, the NPC army will arrive there early for reorganization, we will teleport there directly through the spare teleportation array of the Holy City, and there is no other way to reach the meeting place." Raphael rubbed her eyes, it was very hard for her to read the documents that were distributed to her in the past few days, but this was also the duty that she had to assume as the commander-in-chief of this operation, "Thanks to the request for help from the Minotaur, the Holy See can smoothly gather so many troops together in the name of calling up troops to support the Minotaur, otherwise, such a large army movement will definitely attract the attention of the chaotic camp." ”

Speaking of the Minotaur's request for help, Tiramisu also asked, "So, on Mogaolei's side, are we humans ready to intervene?" The elves and dwarves are in the big quagmire of the Jeremanca Desert, and if we humans don't help, the Minotaurs will be in danger! ”

"It's not that they don't help at all, when the time comes, there will also be a support army going to Thunder Cliff through the teleportation array, which is not only to support the minotaurs, but also to cover up the means of opening the space passage of the Sky City, for this reason, the Holy See even specially invited several archmages who are proficient in space spells in Dalaran to help, isn't your teacher also among them?"

"Ahh The old man didn't like me all the time, so I was self-taught most of the time and hadn't been to him for almost two weeks, haha! ”

"You! That's an opportunity that others can't ask for, so you just threw it away, I really don't know what to say about you! Raphael shook his head and re-talked about the matter on the Minotaur's side, "As for the Thunder Cliff side, the Minotaur Chief Kane is not a fool, how can a strong man who can lead a race not see through the little trick of the Body Devouring Snake, and the Third Apostle is too ignorant of NPCs, look at it, this time, the Body Devouring Snake will fall a big heel!" ”

Tiramisu said happily: "It's good to fall on your heels!" The harder you fall, the better! The matter of the tea party, the matter of Crow Ridge, many people have long looked at this mysterious organization unpleasantly, this time, I am afraid that many people will applaud! Hehe, if this leads to a significant decrease in deterrence, they will have a headache in the future! It's better never to do bad things to us again! Leader, do you think that the Snake will steal chickens and not eat rice, but instead set itself on fire, so that the Minotaur NPC can directly deal with them? ”

Raphael thought for a moment and shook his head: "It's possible, but I don't have much hope, those guys are too cunning, I'm afraid it's hard to catch their evidence!" I just hope they focus on the Thunder Bluff and don't come to Sky City! This operation is crucial, not comparable to the previous ones, and we cannot afford to fail! ”

"Don't worry, President, we are so well prepared, if we fail again, it can only be said that it is a crime of non-war, and we can't blame it!"

"It's useless to worry too much, how are the other guilds preparing?"

"As we expected, although many guilds are secretly digging into our corners, this time they still have the cheekiness to join us, I really don't know how they can say it!" Speaking of this, Tiramisu felt indignant, "If the president hadn't told me in advance what to do, I would have rejected them at the time." ”

"Eating alone is always going to make people red! This action is too important for us alone! As long as the means are not too excessive, it is better to pull in as cannon fodder than to kill our own people! Raphael said calmly, "As for those who want to fight with us no matter what, then there is no need to be polite to them, anyway, either you die or I live, are we kind enough to let them get a piece of the pie!" ”

"The president is so right!" Tiramisu just liked Raphael's style, and a strong woman's breath came to her face, "Up to now, a total of seven hundred and twenty-two guilds and groups have been confirmed to participate, with a total number of more than 700,000 people. ”

"Seven hundred thousand? I'm already satisfied that one percent of it comes in handy! ”

"That's right, most of them are players who are not even cannon fodder, the level is too low, I'm afraid they can't even fight forced damage, and they will waste materials, occupy space, and destroy the formation! So I've asked the heads of these guilds and groups to go back and screen, and those whose level is lower than the second order and seventy are not allowed to participate, so that the number of participants should be greatly reduced. ”

"What are you going to do with the unsuccessful ones?"

"Let them be responsible for providing supplies, the materials we prepare are all supplies, there are no raw materials, that part is provided by these players who can't enter Sky City, and in the same way, rough and finishing will be handed over to them as much as possible under possible conditions!"

"Excellent! The groups that have always maintained a good relationship with us should help and not chill their hearts! ”

Tiramisu replied with a smile: "Of course, the Knights of the Round Table, Garfield's Guild, Followers of Light Guild and other groups will all act with us at that time, and most of the command of those low-level soldiers will also be delegated to them, which will not only allow us to reduce our workload, but also help reduce our losses, and the control of high-level troops will still be in our hands, so it is also convenient to protect the holy flame!" ”

"What about the weapons of war? Carpenter Kavrin must have recovered, right? This is an important aspect related to the future development of the Angelic Covenant, and Raphael naturally attaches great importance to it.

Tiramisu took a document on the table: "I have already reported this matter to you in writing, it seems that you are too busy to read it yet!" Forget it, let's talk about it! Master Kavrin has completed the treatment two days ago and recovered smoothly, but because of his special physique, I am afraid that he will not be able to appear in front of ordinary people openly, in this regard, Master Kavrin also expressed his understanding, so the master will live in our station in the future until we obtain a formal territory, when the time comes, Master Kavrin is willing to be our technician, responsible for the training of carpenters and equipment manufacturing in the territory, as for the war equipment, according to Master Kavrin's meaning, He can make most of the ordinary weapons of war, provided that the raw materials are sufficient and that a group of apprentice carpenters can start with them. ”

"No problem, you look for some reliable members to learn from Master Kavrin as soon as possible, and strive to make a batch of war equipment as soon as possible, this time the operation of Sky City, each human kingdom has also provided a large number of war equipment, whether it is successful or not, there will be a large number of war equipment scrapped and damaged, when the time comes, pull these back to repair it, it can also become our things, and in the future, if we want to obtain our territory, we will rely on these things."

"I really want to see that day sooner!" Tiramisu fantasized about owning his own guild's territory, and the scene was too beautiful to look at, "When the time comes, I'll lead a mighty and majestic crusader and see which guild doesn't like it and destroy them!" But Chief, listen to you, aren't you optimistic about the operation of Sky Castle this time? Doesn't it mean that if you succeed, you will become the lord of the castle in the sky? In that case, Sky City will naturally become our territory, right? ”

Raphael glanced at Tiramisu: "Do you think it's possible?" Will the kings give us such an important city to rule? What's more, it's still unknown whether it will succeed or not! ”

How could it be successful! This operation is doomed to fail! No one will gain the right to rule in the Sky City, not the Holy See of Light, not the undead who have spent tens of thousands of years, and neither can she Raphael!

Raphael thought to himself.

This unprecedented expedition will only end up with a pile of fragments! When he thought of this, Raphael felt a faint sense of loss, a reluctance and pity for the imminent disappearance of that one-of-a-kind work of art.
