"The wolf that walks on the moor" -

This is the symbol of the leaders of the Magic Tower. As one of the most powerful wizard groups on the continent, the movement of the Magic Tower will naturally be followed by the major forces.

The vast majority of the members of the "Reverse Cross" are the most well-informed people on the mainland. Of course, there are powerful monsters among them, but it is not surprising that they are reluctant to confront a legendary wizard when they encounter the arrival of a legendary wizard and choose to retreat.

"The question is, should the communication between us and the southern nobles continue now? The delegation is still on the tower, so if you want to get in touch, throw an olive branch at them, and they will surely accept it with gratitude. But what happens next is a possibility. ”

"In any case, someone is making trouble behind the scenes, which is undoubtedly a provocation to our authorities! A strong response is required. ”

Mr. Hall said in a deep voice.

"It's just a bunch of lost dogs, so there's no need to be afraid."

Just like the first impression of his appearance, this middle-aged man is supposed to be the radical and hard-liner in the magic tower.

"No, then you don't have to, right? We didn't take the initiative to contact the people of the Rhine Kingdom, they came to the door on their own initiative, and besides, none of us officially made a statement or spread the news to the outside world, and the wizard who drove the demon lair was only targeting other people, which is not a provocation. ”

Mr. Evelyn shook his head.

"It's not a good thing to make enemies with people for no reason. What's more, there is likely to be a curse master among the members of the opposing party. ”

Mr. Green nodded approvingly.

"Well......" Mr. Evelyn said, "it's right not to worry about others, and since neither of them is averse to communicating with the people of the Rhine Kingdom, they should continue as they thought before, right?" ”

His proposal was endorsed by Mr. Hall. "In this way, it's two votes." The blonde youth said, smiling and turning his gaze to Mr. Green. Judging from his words, Richard thought to himself that the policies made at the fireside meeting were determined by adopting the most basic "number of people".

The old man did not immediately answer.

"Mr. Raspuchin, Ms. Garcia, what do you two think?"

Richard was thinking in his heart how to express "I don't care!" in more high-end words. Rorel Garcia, who had not spoken, was the first to speak.

"I'm against it."

It was a gray-haired lady who looked about the same age as Mr. Green. But compared to the kind Marion Green, her expression always looks very solemn, which makes people feel unapproachable subconsciously.

She straightened her back, unable to see the old man's rickets at all, and her pupils shimmered sharply under the cover of gold-rimmed glasses. Ms. Garcia sat upright on the sofa and said in a tone that had no room for manoeuvre, without the slightest room for manoeuvre:

"This is a provision in the 'Treaty of Retreat' established thousands of years ago, and the Three Towers of the Stars are not allowed to interfere in the internal affairs of the kingdom on the continent. The purpose of the group of visitors from the ground was clear, that is, to get the help of the magic tower and to win the civil war. We must not condone the violation of the Treaty. ”

"What Ms. Garcia said is exactly what I feared. The 'Treaty of Retreat' is our bottom line, and if we cross this line, we will invite disaster. ”

Mr. Green spoke only then.

"Pedantic, behind the times. It's ridiculous to stick to a piece of waste paper from a thousand years ago! ”

Longman Hall did not hesitate to respond. His voice was not loud, but the words he used were more intense than Richard had imagined. Even Mr. Evelyn looked surprised, as if he was taken aback.

“…… You're saying that the 'Treaty of Retreat' is just a piece of waste paper? ”

Ms. Garcia's narrow eyes narrowed, and her blue pupils seemed to contain storms and thunder.

"Young man, do you know what it really means? The 'waste paper' you are talking about was stained with the blood of countless people, and even the legendary wizards who stood at the top like us fell by double digits in that war, and for the wizards, the value and significance of the 'Treaty of Retreat' is no different from the oath that the gods signed together at the end of the Bronze Age! ”

The "oath" that Rorel Garcia refers to refers to the "Hidden Pact" that allowed the gods to return to the kingdom of God or the Heavenly Pantheon one after another, and no longer directly interfere in mortal affairs and wage divine warfare, which laid the foundation stone of the Black Iron Age, known as the "Mortal Age". …… Speaking of which, it has a similar name to the "Escape Treaty" of the Three Towers of the Stars, and the latter should be imitating the former.

"Don't laugh, comparing the oaths of the gods is just a group of old guys' self-deception."

Mr. Hall, however, was not holding back.

"The Hidden Pact is an 'oath' based on the real name, and even the gods cannot violate the power from the origin of the world, but the Pact of Seclusion is not an ordinary agreement, and it is not binding in substance, do you want to pin your hopes on the ridiculous virtues of the wizards?"

"The Covenant of Retreat is not an oath, and I know that better than you." "But it's the power of reason that sustains everything." This is the path that wizards should take, do you still want to start a war? ”

“…… War? ”

Mr. Hall smiled mockingly.

"I don't like war, but I don't cover my eyes as if I can't see. If you fear it and run away from it, one day it will really fall on you. This was decades ago, and I don't want to repeat it - the Babel guys have already united with the Anglican Church to establish their own country in the Eastern Continent, do you see them at war? ”

"This is not a reason for us to abandon the 'Treatise of Retreat'. Sooner or later, Babel's actions will invite the ill will be irresistible to the ill will of the short-sighted fellows. ”

"Ever since they did this, the treaty has been dead in name only! And malice ...... Hehe, are we less enemies than they are? ”

Mr. Hall's voice was deep.

"In the past ten years, our situation in the Holy Alliance has become more and more difficult, although the power of the Holy See has been hit by internal divisions, but still has a dominant advantage, they have not been at ease with the magic tower floating around their heads and out of control, and the contradictions will only intensify in the foreseeable years in the future......"

"We are not afraid of the Holy See, but we need to be prepared. Isn't it? ”
