Chapter 246: Chief Archmage

Hollanster replied happily to two of these conditions, especially the second, and the transfer of Bloom back was only a matter of his words, but it was not a condition at all. Although the third condition is a little difficult, but since sooner or later it will have to confront the Holy See, then there is no need to be polite to the agents of the Hepburn family, and even need to hit the business of the Hepburn family to a certain extent, after all, the Hepburn family, as the biggest behind-the-scenes supporter of the Holy See, is also attacking the Holy See, not to mention that the pharmacy business has a huge profit return, regardless of other things, just from a simple business logic, it is also worth a try. The most important thing is that these two things don't look like a conspiracy, so he agreed without much thought, but the first one made him hesitate, the reason why the Ogu family has prospered since more than three hundred years ago is because of the agreement with the dragons and dwarves, but Alan now asks him to risk violating the agreement for the lives of some mercenaries, whether there is any conspiracy behind it, he really needs to think about it repeatedly. He didn't want an angry dragon to turn the entire ancient city of Aogu into a sea of fire one night, wrapped in the cold wind from the Kulen Mountains.

"If the adults can't agree to all my conditions, then unfortunately, I can't join. ”

Allen's tone faded, he still couldn't forget his desperate state in the ice room of Dragon God Mountain, and he never wanted any mercenaries to repeat this mistake.

"Alan, you can mention the other conditions, anything, I can give you the title of chief magician, build you a castle second only to this place, and have hundreds of servants to serve you. If we succeed in the future, you can choose the richest land on the continent, and the surname Kanter will be on a par with Ogu, immortalized. ”

Hollanster spread his hands and frothed at the mouth as he drew a flatbread for Allen, but unfortunately his flatbread was full of grease and did not suit Allen's appetite at all.

"If the adults can't accept all my conditions, I don't want to embarrass the adults, so I take my leave. ”

Ignoring Holancest's persuasion, Alan picked up the mage hat he had placed beside him, stood up, and walked out.

"My lord, the conditions put forward by Alan are also for the benefit of the mercenaries, and if we refuse him, it will not be bad for the prestige of the adults. ”

Seeing that the two were about to break down, Herbert hurriedly stepped forward to persuade Holancest.

"Say no more. ”

Hollanster waved his hand, he knew what the old magician was going to say, but that was clearly not what he wanted to hear.

"Alan, I can promise you all the conditions, but you must promise that the greed of the mercenaries will not cause the tribute to go wrong, thus affecting the agreement between the Ogu family and the dragon. ”

As Alan was about to step out of the living room door, Hollanster finally stopped him from behind.

"I promise. ”

Alan stopped and said categorically.

"Very good, very good. Alan, the new chief mage of the ancient city state of Okuro is you. ”

Hollanster said excitedly.

"My lord, when can we act?"

After the two sides agreed, Alan returned to his seat and sat down, and asked his most important questions, in his mind, it was best to eliminate the Papal forces led by Tis Hepburn immediately.

"Allen, don't be too anxious, the Holy See is not a Bolsma bandit, you can destroy it if you want to. ”

Hollanster instructed the servant to bring the old wine, and personally brought a glass for Allen, and then patted Allen on the shoulder affectionately and said, although Allen's magical strength is unparalleled in the continent, he still lacks experience in politics and military.

"Your Excellency always has some plans, right?

Alan asked.

"Among the major forces in the mainland, our forces are the weakest at this stage, so my plan is to wait. ”

Hollander took the wine glass, walked around the living room, and finally returned to square one before continuing:

"Now that Higg is completely finished, sooner or later there will be a conflict between the Holy See and Yus, who have lost Higg's buffer, before they enter the war in full area, all we have to do is wait for the change of the situation on the continent, I believe that this day will not wait too long, but in the meantime we must not be idle, we must be prepared to deal with the violent turmoil on the continent that may come at any time. ”

Holland believed in his strategic vision, and his tone was full of confidence.

"What do we need to do to prepare?"

With this explanation, Alan understood that Holranster's wishful thinking was to go down the mountain to pick peaches when Yuss and the Holy See were fighting to a dead end.

"Expand!"

Hollanster raised his glass to Allen, and then a word came out of his mouth.

As for the expansion of the army, the three of them sat together and discussed it for a while, of course, mainly Alan asked, and Hollanster replied.

"Archmage, what exactly does this chief mage position do?"

Alan said goodbye, and Hollanster was supposed to send Alan personally, but at Herbert's request, he finally sent Alan outside the city gates. At the gate of the city, Alan stopped and asked Herbert for advice.

Holland is ready to appoint Alan as the chief archmage of the ancient city state of Ao, but Alan doesn't know what the chief archmage does, is it like Herbert who accompanies Holland every day and advises him, then his magic talent is too wasteful.

"What do you say?" Hearing Alan ask this, a strange smile appeared on the old magician's face, "The chief archmage is a very important, but also very unimportant role. ”

Herbert gave an ambiguous answer as soon as he opened his mouth.

"What does the Archmage mean by that?"

Alan was a little puzzled.

"The role of the chief archmage varies from person to person, some people are good at alchemy, can provide a lot of magical equipment for the city-state, and seek profits for the city-state, and some people are good at casting spells, and the mercenary group led by them can complete many impossible tasks, and some people's magic theory is very profound and can train magicians for the city-state. Depending on his abilities and preferences, the chief mage can be the leader of the mercenary group, or he can be lazy like me and choose to stay by the city lord's side to give him advice, of course, it is also the responsibility of the chief mage to personally solve some problems for the city lord. In short, this position can do anything or nothing, it all depends on your abilities and choices. If you don't do anything, then you may just be a sign that the lord uses to embolden everyone, and everyone knows that the Agu family has the support of a powerful mage like you, just like a swordsman of unknown strength holding a long sword inlaid with large magic crystals, which makes people instinctively fear him. ”

Herbert patiently explained to Allen.

"I see. ”

Alan nodded, Herbert's words are not difficult to understand, the chief archmage is just a fictitious position, with status and the support of the lord, but other than that, everything needs to be fought for by himself, there is nothing necessary for him to complete, this is also a good thing, it gives him the right to choose freely, he really doesn't want to stay by Holance's side every day like Herbert.
