Chapter 1220: Sudden News
Hearing a not-so-good news early in the morning will not be in a good mood for the day.
So the maid sat irritably in her office on the top floor of the Mage Tower, waiting for a response from Latinia beside her.
After a while, Latinia opened her eyes and saw her frowning brow, and knew that the answer was not quite what she wanted.
Sighing silently, the maid asked helplessly, "How is the situation?"
Latinia bit her lower lip and whispered with resentment, "Cloudsdale has completely blocked the information channel to the outside world, they have crossed the Atoso Mountains, and now they are heading towards the Inland Sea area......
With no hope left, Cloudsdale seemed to be aware of their prying eyes, and after receiving the prying eyes, they reacted immediately - using magic to hide themselves, causing the city to disappear completely from the cameras of surveillance satellites.
Since they woke up early this morning, they have been receiving bad news, which seems to have been backlogged for a long time, one after another, and they are annoyed.
Serena and Latinia shuddered at the thought that Cloudsdale was most likely connected to the Eye of All Knowing and the Dragon Hunters, that the Floating City had flown over their heads several times, and that it had been wandering around the continent for more than eight hundred years.
The mage organizations of the entire continent are under the supervision of the gods, so as to prevent another human tragedy like the Arcane Empire, and it is naturally impossible for Cloudsdale to escape the monitoring of the gods.
In the eyes of many gods, mages are not to be trusted, and even more so in mage organizations that gather many mages.
Even if the Cloudsdale School betrayed the Arcane Empire during the 'Arcane War' and helped the gods successfully capture an entire floating city, who would truly believe a traitor?
And now, this traitor has betrayed again!
Of course, this may not be a betrayal, after all, they have never betrayed the Arcane Empire, they have never truly loved the world of Assatom, so where does 'betrayal' begin?
Although all this was just speculation, the appearance of Cloudsdale in the Black Forest was still a reality, and Cervantes had mentioned that he had seen Cloudsdale fly out of the Black Forest when he was in the Frontier.
Judging from these things, the mysterious Cloudsdale may not be on the side of the Assatom world, but from the beginning, it was another backhand of the Arcane Empire.
It was even very likely that it was the All-Seeing Eye or the stronghold of the Dragon Hunter Order - the Floating City that had fallen from the sky over the Southern Continent had already made them suspicious of Cloudsdale, and now, there was a new piece of evidence.
The maid took a deep breath and shook her head heavily, "To be honest, I'm not surprised!"
Latinia also sighed, "After all, I had some guesses before, so naturally I won't be surprised by this expected situation, it's just ......"
It's just that I didn't expect the Arcane Empire to be able to lay down such a backhand, and for its return, in addition to the Dragon Hunting Order and the Eye of All-Knowing, a Cloud City was also prepared.
And if they're not mistaken, in the process of capturing Cloudsdale, the gods also killed a Grand Arcanist with their own hands, and countless Arcanists were killed.
However, this also seems to explain why, with the cooperation of the Cloudsdale School, the Arcanists still destroyed the research materials that were valuable enough, leaving only a few books and materials that were not of high priority.
It's because Cloudsdale has been on the side of the Arcane Empire from the beginning, and in order to act on this play, they really killed a great Arcanist and many Arcanists, and those Arcanists even had their souls shattered, and there was no possibility of resurrection.
If this is the case, then the main forces of the All-Seeing Eye and the Dragon Hunting Order may not be in the Athatom world at all, but Cloudsdale is their eyes, and Cloudsdale has been collecting information about the Assatom world for more than eight hundred years that have been coming and going over the continent without a trace.
This continent has long been explored by the Arcane Empire, but they don't know how the Arcane Empire has developed in the past eight hundred years.
If the Arcane Empire were in the astral realm, the maid would even suspect that they had grown to the point of astral colonization.
Now that Cloudsdale has escaped into the depths of the Black Forest, it is obviously not an easy job to find them, at this point in time, those who can enter the Black Forest to explore, except for the dragons, there are only gods, but the slightly stronger gods have their own things to do, and the weak ones entering the Black Forest are sent to death, and the evil gods can't be counted on.
Even Latinia needs to adjust and reconcile the commercial and political relations of the countries of the continent in the current chaos to ensure that commercial activities can be carried out normally.
In this way, they can only wait for news from the dragon, and there is nothing else they can do.
"The house leak happened to rain overnight......" I thought about it for a long time, but I didn't think of a good solution, and the maid could only sigh.
Latinia also shook her head helplessly, and the office soon fell silent.
Joanna sat at the desk, looked at them with some curiosity, and wondered why she had been chatting so passionately just now, and now she suddenly stopped talking.
“...... By the way, Sela, don't we really have to help the elves?"
After a while, Latinia suddenly turned to the side, leaned back on the sofa, and looked at the maid.
Serena glanced at her and sneered, "War money is not so easy to earn, the elves have been suppressed for so many years, if they don't let them release their anger and hatred, maybe they will really do something terrible." It is better for them to deal with the nobles than for them to kill the commoners. ”
Latinia was not ashamed at all, turned a deaf ear to the ridicule in the maid's words, leaned over cheekily, and asked in a low voice: "We all know that this time the war elves have won, although the other nobles of the Kurkut Empire will also be indignant, after all, the elves are alien, but how do I think, what else is the twist in this?
"It's true that I didn't tell you something, but even if you did, it wouldn't be of much use. The maid shook her head lightly and sighed, "Ruerno Luches has already arranged everything, and this time he has locked the country, and except for the elves, who are an indispensable help, no other forces want to interfere in his plans."
"I can tell you that he wants to clean up the entire Kurkut Empire at once, because he is dying, this is a golden opportunity, if he dies and his successor fails to seize this opportunity, the Kurkut Empire will sink day by day, and eventually it will even be divided and conquered, which he does not want to see.
"He didn't mention it to anyone else, and he wouldn't have mentioned it to me if it weren't for the desire to ask me for some relevant knowledge, and the fewer people who knew about it, the better, for only in this way could he ensure that his chances went smoothly and that all the nobles were cleared, good or bad. ”
Seeing the eager look on Latinia's face, the maid pursed her lips and reminded, "This time he won't let other forces interfere, so the idea of making war money can be put down." You know that this war is against those nobles I hate, so that's why I have the idea of making war money, although I also want you to make such a war profit, but unfortunately, Ruerno will not allow it, and I will not do it. ”
The corners of her mouth quickly curved, and she even spat in disgust, Latinia's mouth opened slightly, and she was stunned again when she wanted to say something.
When Latinia came back to her senses and frowned, the maid couldn't wait to ask in a deep voice, "What happened?"
"The Grand Duke of the Principality of the Eagle is going to be king......" When she said this, Latinia looked ugly, and Serena knew that the situation was more than that.
"And there are also many mages in his army, and in just one month, the entire Eagle Principality has been unified. But ......"
However, the Eagle Principality is not rich in mages, and on the contrary, there is a lot of exclusion from them.
And the 'massive' in Latinia's words will certainly not be only a few dozen, although for the 'mage', this is already a huge number......
So now the question arises - where did these mages who suddenly appeared in the Eagle Principality come from?
