Chapter 189: Alterac (8)
On the shores of Lake Dallon Mill, this land was later known as the "Land of the Western Plague".
But now, the scenery is beautiful, the vegetation is lush, and there is no terrible sight of the future; At least now it looks much more comfortable than the drab white scene of Alterac City.
Keldaron Island, located in the middle of Lake Daron Mill...... A long time ago, when Carlin first went to Dalaran, he passed by this place, and even had the idea of visiting it; But at that time, he was just a mage who had just three rings; Although I have this heart, I didn't receive an invitation, so I naturally didn't have the courage to rush in.
Now it was different, looking at the isolated island in front of him, Carlin took out the "Etiyès" pinned to his waist......
He read the ancient incantation, and then he turned into a black crow and flew towards the island.
The black raven flew over the lake until it landed on the island, taking on the form of an elf.
The servants of the Barov family on the island were all taken aback...... There was a look of alarm on his face.
"I'm sorry, guys, but I didn't mean it badly!" Carlin smiled and said, "I'm a mage from Kenrito, and I'm just here to visit Lady Jenens!" β
β¦β¦
"Elven mage from Dalaran?" After hearing the servant's report, Janice Barov couldn't help but frown.
She was indeed a mage, and ten years ago, she was even a famous magical genius in Alterac...... But she was a native of Alterac and had nothing to do with Dalaran.
Any mage, especially a human mage, must yearn for Dalaran...... Even the mistress of the Barov family is no exception.
When she was younger, she also had the idea of going to Dalaran to study. But with a chance encounter, the idea quickly faded; Because she met Duke Alex Barov, an elegant and strong Otrankian nobleman.
In general, it is very difficult for a mage, especially a female mage, to fall in love with an ordinary human...... But Janice is a very emotional woman.
In her early twenties, she had already broken through the Five Rings Mage, and gave up her pursuit of arcane arts to follow Duke Barov...... Fortunately, Alex did not disappoint her, and after divorcing his ex-wife, the two were together, and then lived in Kelldaron Castle for almost ten years.
Ten years is enough time to change a lot of things...... Now Janice may regret that decision ten years ago.
If it weren't for that decision, she might have broken through the Six Rings in Dalaran and obtained the title of Archmage...... Put on a blue robe, even a brown robe, and stand tall!
Instead of hesitating in the position of the fifth ring as now, and may not even be able to step on the threshold of the sixth ring road for the rest of his life.
"The mage!" Putting aside those irrelevant thoughts, Janice asked lightly, "What color is the robe on your body?" β
"Blue, ma'am!" The servant replied honestly, "It looks exquisite!" β
"Damn it!" She frowned, what the blue robe meant, she knew better than her minions...... While thinking, she walked out of her room: "Let your Excellency, wait in the living room for a while, and I will be there shortly." β
β¦β¦
Carlin sat in the Barov family's parlor and watched as Mrs. Janis approached.
"Hello, ma'am!" He stood up and said very gently.
A smile also appeared on the corner of Janis Barov's mouth, a very handsome elven mage, looking very comfortable, at least much easier than facing those old men who were immersed in the arcane ocean.
"Salute you, Your Excellency!" The hostess of the castle of Kirondal bowed and saluted: "Dare to ask the name, and why are you here?" β
"My name?" Carlin smiled, "My name is Carlin-Sunrage!"
Hearing this name, the hostess's face suddenly trembled slightly; She is not a dirt bun like Blackmore, and she knows this name and the origin of this name very well for a nobleman like her who has intelligence channels.
A student of Antonidas, an adjutant of Anduin Lothar, and an heir to an astral mage...... A series of identities is enough to make any mage envious or even jealous.
"It turned out to be Lord Carlin's visit!" She stood up and said with a little humility, "It seems that I am a little neglected!" β
"Don't be so polite, ma'am...... I'm just here to talk to you about a deal! Carlin said bluntly.
"Deal!" The expression on Janice Barov's face became solemn.
Many things came to her mind at once...... The other party is going to make a deal with the Barov family, could it be that Dalaran or the alliance has already thought about Alterac; Or is it a deal for yourself?
A note was thrown in front of Janice.
"Madame, you can take a look at this first!" Carlin said with a smile.
Janice took the note suspiciously, and the moment she saw it, the mage's hand suddenly trembled.
"It's ......"
This note contains a very deep and complex enchantment spell called "Autosuggestion...... Through this spell, you can give yourself some subconscious instructions, implying that you are in some special environment...... However, it is free to cancel without any mental effect.
Janice Barov quickly realized the value of the spell to her...... She could have used it to imply that she was still ten years ago, and even that she had not married Alex and had gone to Dalaran...... In that way, the threshold of the Sixth Ring will not be impregnable......
But the note only contained a small part of the spell.
"I was in Karazan for a while, and I inherited my inheritance there, ma'am!" Carlin said calmly, "So in my hands, I control some special, unknown magic!" β
"And the price, at what cost?" The mistress of the castle of Kailongal, with a solemn face, asked:
The Barov family is very rich, but the value of a spell at this level cannot be measured in terms of money.
"If you want me to cheat on my husband!" Her expression was slightly hesitant: "I...... I don't think it's enough that you need these! β
"Of course not...... Madame, I'm not trampling on your charms, but that's not what I need! Carlin was stunned for a moment, then smiled helplessly: "I just need you to do me a small favor, of course, it may be a little dangerous!" β
β¦β¦
Half an hour later, the black crow flew out of the castle.
"All-knowing eye, according to your calculations, what is the probability that the other party will agree to my conditions!" Carlin asked softly.
"Okay, wait a minute...... the voice of the All-Seeing Eye sounded in his head: "It's about 99.45%!" β
