Chapter 723: The Way to Survive
Houdini was a bit surprised by the result, but then he figured out why: the current competition to determine the ranking was mostly a "competition of strength", and Erwin and the barbarian soldiers almost won the championship, so it was not a surprise to win the first place overall.

It's also a little funny to think about: the dignified Rasiman Kingdom, facing the crisis of the ancient sea beast, relied on Roddy to solve it, and even the inevitable "Twilight Autumn Crown" also allowed the Karen Kingdom to win the championship, which was really a clean loss from face to inside...
He sighed, walked along, and unconsciously entered the area of Brenka Academy. Along the familiar street, he stopped in front of his deserted courtyard.
The area where the Ancient Sea Beast exploded was far away, so the courtyard was barely affected, but a notice had been posted in front of the gate at some point. Houdini frowned and stepped forward, only to find that it turned out to be a "relocation notice" written on it.
However, unlike the previous notice that told him to move to the lecturer's apartment for a limited time, this one reads, "In view of the outstanding contribution made by Magister Houdini, the Academy has decided to give a villa to Merrith..."
The words behind him were sincere and said good things, to the effect that the academy had reinstated Houdini and even promoted him to two levels, and as long as he went to the academy to sign it, he could have the status of "vice president" and enjoy more resources.
Intrigued, Houdini reached out and removed the notice, twisted it into pieces with his magic, and stepped into the courtyard.
The appearance of the ancient sea monster disrupted everything, but everyone's life had to go on. Houdini knew that the strength of the Barlenna Academy would come to an end, but that didn't mean that the Blenka Academy would be able to change its cowardice of the past.
Houdini, who jumped out of this circle, also felt a little confused at this time, under the drastic changes, where should he go?
So he took out a series of magic items in earnest, and released a "Destiny Guide" on himself - this is also the first time in the past five years that he has cast a "prophecy" that can really peek into the future.
Unlike other spells, Destiny Guide is not something that can be unleashed with magical powers, and whether it succeeds or not depends on a variety of factors. The most important thing is the caster's current mindset and understanding of the "future". Luckily, after failing to cast it five years ago, this time he finally made the "Destiny Guide" show a clear pattern:
Houdini saw the outline of the octagon and saw the symbol of the magic tower in the center. He frowned slightly, and then realized that this was not the city of Durrell, but Evta, thousands of miles away.
For the "prophecy" magister, every successful glimpse into the future means a deeper understanding of "fate". In other words, now his strength has reached a new level.
After putting away the props he was using, Houdini calmly took out his paper and began to write his resignation letter to be submitted to Blenka College.
In the humble inn, Duke, the little Khan of Bindu Country, paced back and forth in front of the window with some anxiety.
"Is he really not intended?"
Although the young Duke is a little frivolous, it does not mean that he is a fool who goes all the way to the dark. Although he was held his breath by the lessons of Merinthra, in the face of the absolute disparity in strength, Duke knew that the top priority was to establish a good relationship with the powerful kingdom of Karen - if he could establish trade and maintain long-term contacts, his position in the clan would definitely be doubly secure!
The Bindu country has the habit of advocating the strong, and the "strong" naturally does not refer to "personal strength" in a narrow sense, and if the whole country can be prosperous and strong, and trade is developed, the people will naturally remember whose credit it is. Duke was very eager for this, but to his helplessness, he asked Roddy several times last night for a "meeting", but so far he has not heard half a response.
"Little Khan, maybe they were too tired last night to wake up yet. ”
The old man, who was forced to vomit blood by Milen Sera's move, persuaded Duke in a low voice, "Trade cooperation is not something that can be done in a day, if they want to talk, they must talk to the Rasiman Council first, let's be patient and wait..."
Duke felt that he had a point, but the urgency in his heart still kept him alive. Coincidentally, at this time, a subordinate suddenly came to report and sent a letter from Roddy.
Little Khan Duke was dedicated to practicing martial arts, and he was "illiterate", so he grabbed the letter and handed it directly to the old man beside him: "Look at what you said!"
"The Roddy Emissary said... Well, it is not appropriate to talk about a trade program with Bindou. ”
The old man's words made Duke's face collapse, and he sat down in the armchair in a dejected manner: "Alas! ”
But the military advisor's eyes lit up after frowning and reading the letter, and he said in a low voice: "Little Khan, what the envoy of Luo Di means is that he can't negotiate with us in a high-profile manner now, but he does have the heart to cooperate, but everything must be out of the eyes of the Rasiman Council..."
"You mean..."
Duke's eyes lit up, and he suddenly came back to his senses. He understood that this was a great opportunity, thought for a moment, and waved his hand: "Then let's find a reason to leave here first! ”
The troops of Bindu chose to evacuate the city of Duriel on the same day, and the council of Rasiman thanked them for their help in clearing the city, and did not forget to give them a large amount of gold coins as a reward, to the great joy of both parties.
While Duke was thinking about how to report the good news to the Khan's father in Bindu, the two Tukh women hiding in the hotel room were lying on their beds in a daze with sad faces.
It is a temporary residence of the Karen Kingdom team, provided by the Rasiman Council free of charge, located on a high ground in the north of the city of Duriel, in the middle of the hustle and bustle, and overlooking half of the city. Both the level of luxury and the attitude of the staff and service are several levels higher than the previous hotel.
After taking a shower, Doroes and Evely lay on the bed in comfortable pajamas, the soft mattress made it difficult for the tired body to move, but the two of them who should have rested were both eyes wide and unable to sleep.
"We... Did you get away with it?"
Doris's voice was a little hoarse, and after a few seconds, she said to herself, "But... We'll never be back to Ciudad Gasco. ”
The city of Gasco is the capital of the Esca Kingdom and the core of the Dorys and Evely families.
"If you want to live, the only thing you have to do now is to forget where we came from, otherwise what are you and I risking half our lives last night for?"
Evely lay next to her, and when she talked about what happened last night, she couldn't help but shudder - because in order to create the illusion that the two were "accidentally attacked and killed", Roddy deliberately arranged for more than a dozen resurrected fishmen to besiege them!
I went out to party today and came back too late, more than 2,000 words, but I scheduled tomorrow's update for 12:05 in the morning. Opening a new book does not mean that the book is over, there is still some time before the new book is issued, I have written a 30,000-word beginning before, but I am not satisfied with the deletion, and now I am writing again, if I am satisfied, I will save the manuscript and send it again.
