After a day's rest, the five legions of the Empire, led by Barn, the head of the Iron Wolf Knights, sailed out of Faroe Bay and headed for the west coast.

On the west coast, the announcement issued by Queen Skady was also delivered here early the next morning, when the announcement was posted, the people who saw the announcement left in a hurry, as a commercial harbor city, the Duchy's legions stationed on the west coast were only half of the full strength, that is, 5,000 people, most of them were daily patrols to mediate commercial disputes, and the combat effectiveness could only barely be said because of the backwardness of weapons and equipment.

What did the people who saw the announcement leave? The vast majority of people went to buy food to prepare for storage, because the empire sent additional legions to the territory of the principality again after nearly ten years, and it was definitely not here to play, maybe the real war was coming, and at that time the west coast would definitely become depressed because of the war, and it was too common to not be able to buy food with money at that time.

"Mentor, it's not good, the Empire, the Empire has sent four more legions to Faroe Bay, maybe it's already heading for the west coast." After seeing the announcement posted outside the store, Luo Lian hurried back to the Wizards' Guild, and after meeting the president Shalan, Luo Lian's nervousness disappeared slightly, after all, there are not many things in the world that can make the mentor embarrassed.

"Hey, are you still here?" Sha Lan was reading a magic book, and her hand that turned the page didn't move for a long time, the arrival of the Emperor ** group was expected by her, but when this day really came, Sha Lan didn't know how to deal with it for a while.

"For more than two months, the empire's response was really fast, and almost as soon as it got the news, it dispatched troops and set off on a warship." After calculating the time of the existence of Sky City, Sharan couldn't help but smile bitterly, it seems that the Imperial side attaches great importance to the legion commander who was killed by Kaili, and did not hesitate to send four legions to the Duchy of Belmar on the other side of the ocean.

"Mentor, what should we do?" Seeing that Sha Lan didn't reply for a long time, Luo Lian couldn't help but ask, she really wanted to stand up and stop the empire's legions, but no matter how strong her strength was, it was not worth mentioning in the face of the five legions of the empire, not to mention anything else, the long-famous short sword master Barn could easily kill her.

You must know that Lorian's family is also a nobleman of the principality, she ran away from home and came to the West Coast, and the family is also in Huttonmar, if it is captured by the Empire's legions, who knows if the people in the family will suffer accidents because of this?

Luo Lian has grown a lot after experiencing the exploration of Sky City, and she is also deeply aware of her willfulness, but she has not been in contact with the people of the family, and she is not good at returning to the family directly to admit her mistakes, that is, she has been delaying until now and has not reported her safety to her family once, although she knows that there have always been people in the family secretly protecting or monitoring herself.

She didn't dare to imagine what she would think if the worst happened, she looked at Sharan in thought, and boldly said her decision: "Mentor, I may have to go to Huttonmar, I'm sorry. ”

"Silly boy, you've long since graduated from the Wizard's Academy, if you want to go, go ahead." Sharan didn't show disappointment or anger, she stood up and came to Luo Lian and whispered, Luo Lian couldn't help but have a sour eye in the corner.

"As a neutral organization, the Wizards Academy has accepted the aid of the principality, so it stands up to show its attitude, Lorian, now I appoint you as the special representative of the Wizards' Union as the president of the Wizards' Union, your words and deeds will represent the entire Wizards' Union from now on, and you will be responsible for negotiating with the Empire's legions on behalf of the Magicians' Union, remember, don't mix your personal feelings in the negotiations, that may make more people bleed."

Shalan's next words surprised Lorien, and she looked incredulous, the mentor agreed?

"This badge represents who you are now, you keep it." Sharan took out a special badge, and Lorianne took it and looked at it and carefully put it away.

"Remember, the attitude of the Wizards' Guild is absolutely neutral, and it will not directly intervene in the struggle between the two countries, but it will not allow the empire to blatantly invade the principality, you bring badges after seeing the representatives of both sides, if the dissuasion fails, notify me as soon as possible, and I will arrive at your side as soon as possible."

Sharan continued to instruct Luo Lian, her expression was very serious, the stakes were very high, there must not be enough strength here on the west coast to stop the empire's legions, not to mention that as a commercial capital, the west coast is completely open except for the fishermen who live on the sea are merchants, and it makes no difference whether the empire occupies it or not.

"Mentor, I made a note of it." Lorianne bowed her head deeply.

"Go ahead." Sharan nodded, she watched Luo Lian walk out of the wizard's union and step on the broom and leave, she couldn't help but rub her forehead, the relationship between the Duchy of Belmar and the Dark Elf Kingdom has not been completely mediated, and the empire is actually intervening at this time, this year is really a year of many disasters.

It is not an exaggeration to describe this autumn of 996 in the Arad calendar as an eventful autumn, less than half a day after Queen Skadi's announcement was posted, the prices of various items on the West Coast were rising, and the highest increase was naturally the food that was convenient to preserve, followed by the food that could not be stored for long after the processing was completed.

After learning about this incident, many citizens of the West Coast who realized it were basically unable to buy grain if they wanted to, and even if there was a small amount of grain on sale, the price had increased by at least ten times, not to mention that it was really high, but after a while, the grain at ten times the price was also sold out.

Most people complain about this situation, and young people who have never experienced war finally know that such a terrible situation will occur before war comes, no wonder the older generation can't help but tremble when they talk about war, they must have experienced this situation back then.

Epic war? No kidding, what does the war between countries and between legions have to do with ordinary people? It's better to think about what to eat tomorrow.

"Captain Barn, we're on the West Coast soon." A member of the Iron Wolf Knights cautiously came to the cabin and shouted to Barn, who was sitting there wiping a short sword, and the other party made a move, carefully inserted the short sword into the scabbard at his waist, and then stood up.

"Pass my order, everyone must not harm anyone after landing, unless the other party takes the initiative to attack us." Barn spoke in a deep voice as he reached the outside of the cabin, looking at the approaching West Coast harbor.

"So, what if someone stands in front of the line and doesn't go or shoot?" The subordinate asked apprehensively, this kind of thing has not happened before.

"Persuasion is the best, if it doesn't work, kill a hundred people!" Barn's voice was cold.

"My subordinates understand!" I want to talk about "DNF's Live Aradd" with more like-minded people, pay attention to "excellent reading literature" on WeChat, talk about life, and find confidants~
