Enter the Wizard's Tower and stand in the teleportation array in the lobby on the ground floor.

The vision changed and appeared in a large and luxurious room, a place that Wren recognized, he had visited once last month, and it was the residence of the Duke of Silverstar.

The two of them saw at a glance, Duke Silver Star sitting on the sofa.

She had already changed out of the solemn robe of the knighthood ceremony, put on a comfortable and homely long dress, with a leisurely posture, holding a book in her hand, reading with relish, and did not seem to notice that someone had come in.

The Duke was alone in the room, and the chief of the guard, Frink, had gone.

Ovira hesitated for a few seconds, she knew that the Duke had a habit of reading and did not like to be disturbed, and finally stepped forward and whispered, "Your Excellency." ”

Wren also walked over.

Duke Silver Star raised his head, his eyes swept over the two of them, he couldn't see any expression, and nodded: "You guys are here, sit down and talk." ”

When the two of them were seated across from each other from the couch, she closed the book in her hand and looked at Wren, "You already know where Glamorgan is?"

"Yes. Wren replied truthfully.

"It's good to know, so I don't have to tell you again. The Duke of Silver Star suddenly laughed, changed his sitting position, and sighed: "Glamorgan is a good territory, I was also surprised when I got its jurisdiction, the fall of the Dukagen family was beyond the expectations of many people. ”

"It's a pity that the interests of this territory are too great, and countless people covet it, and even I can't gnaw it, so I can only get some leftovers in the end. ”

"Otherwise, I can build the Floating City at least fifty years in advance. ”

Duke Silverstar's face was rather regretful.

Viola was a little anxious and asked, "Your Excellency, why do you want to make Wren the Earl of Glamorgan? The record company is on the right track, and I promise you that within five years, the record company's annual income will definitely exceed 500,000 gold guilders." ”

Duke Silver Star was unmoved.

She snorted and asked rhetorically, "Viola, do you think that I am short of money, so I started the idea of this territory of Glamorgan?"

Viola didn't respond, but that's clearly what she thought.

The same goes for Wren.

They couldn't think of any other reason for that. The whole of Longshand, who knew a little about the territory of Glamorgan, probably all had the same idea.

Duke Silver Star was silent for a while, and then said, "You run a record company well, and I am also very optimistic about the prospects of the gramophone, which is an industry that can bring profits in the long run. ”

"But do you know how much money the nobles of Modu hand over to me every year?"

Without waiting for Wren and Viola to guess, she continued: "It happens to be half a million gold. ”

"So much!"

Both of them were a little surprised, this amount was much higher than expected.

The annual income of 500,000 gold does not seem to be much compared to the tax of the entire Dukedom of Longshande, but this is pure income, you don't have to do anything, as long as you lie down, you can pick up 500,000 gold for nothing every year.

The Modu nobles were willing to give so much money to the Duke of Silver Star, and obviously, their income in Glamorgan was much higher than this figure.

Maybe that's just a small part of it.

Wren thought to himself, now that the Duke of Silver Star is not willing to take only the 500,000 gold, she wants more.

Still incomprehensible, Viola asked, "Why Wren?"

No matter how strong Wren's strength is, he is only a fourth-level wizard.

He entered Modu, the trading capital of the empire, where many powerful people in the empire gathered, and he also died a life.

If the Duke wants to take back Glamorgan, he can canonize others, and any of the five legendary transcendents under the Duke is more suitable to become the new Earl of Glamorgan than Wren.

"You think I'm pushing Wren into the fire pit?" Duke Silverstar asked in a deep voice.

Viola bit her lip lightly, wondering if she wasn't it?

Duke Silver Star sneered, feeling a little dissatisfied with his great-granddaughter, and said lightly: "It seems that you know neither me nor Wren. ”

Wren's heart skipped a beat and he didn't speak.

Viola was a little dazed, not understanding what she meant.

"Your Excellency?"

Duke Silver Star threw the book aside and said slowly: "First of all, I am indeed short of money now, but I am not short of money to the point of tearing up the agreement reached with Anxi Wodaus, the damage from this earthquake is not small, and I am not in a hurry to delay the construction of the floating city for a few years at most." ”

"Secondly, you underestimated Wren's strength, and there is no better candidate for the Earl of Glamorgan than him, and it is easier for him to survive than anyone else by throwing him to Mordu. ”

Wren's feelings were even worse, as if Duke Silverstar knew something.

Viola couldn't help but look at Wren beside him, with some confusion in his eyes, and said, "Your Excellency, Wren is only a fourth-level wizard. ”

An inexplicable smile appeared on Duke Silverstar's face.

"Have you ever seen a fourth-level wizard who can storm into a castle and kill twenty-four transcendents in five minutes, including a seventh-level steel knight, a fifth-level wizard, and a sixth-level shadow warrior?"

Hearing this sentence in Wren's ears, it was tantamount to a shock.

He thought that no one would know about it, and even Viola didn't tell him, and he was a little smug.

Unexpectedly, it was discovered by the Duke of Silver Star a long time ago.

Wren was a little panicked in his heart, but his face was impassive, as if he was not talking about himself.

At the same time, he was a little curious, did this mean that he had gone wrong, or did the Holy Soul Wizard have unknown clever methods?

Viola was shocked, she stared at Wren, "You killed Gallovena?"

Wren didn't answer, and it was a tacit acquiescence.

He noticed a stern gaze falling on him, it was the Duke of Silver Star, and found that her expression was not good-looking, and she seemed to be a little angry.

This made Wren's heart empty.

Gallowena is the grandson of Duke Silverstar, one of the descendants she values more, she killed him herself, and sat in front of him in a grand manner, it would be good if she was not killed on the spot.

Wren suddenly thought in his heart, no wonder the Duke of Silver Star wanted to throw himself to Modu, which was both a gift and a punishment.

Envy and power, the most preferred means of the superiors.

Thinking of this, he felt relieved, at least the Duke of Silver Star would not make any more trouble for himself before he returned from Mordu.

He laughed dryly and asked stubbornly, "Your Excellency, what should I do when I go to Modu?"

The Duke of Silver Star had just said that she had appointed herself as Earl of Glamorgan, not for money, but for other purposes.

"Viola, you go out first. ”

Duke Silver Star whispered, obviously the rest of the matter needs to be kept secret. Viola was stunned for a moment, and seeing that the duke's attitude was very resolute, she had no choice but to enter the teleportation array and leave.

There were only two people left in the room, which made Wren a little uncomfortable.

The Duke of Silver Star said: "The appointment of the new Earl of Glamorgan is not my idea, but Anthy Vodaus took the initiative to propose to me, I just chose you. ”

"Huh?" Wren didn't react for a moment.

What is this operation?

He had thought of many reasons, but he had never guessed that this would be the idea of Master Anthy Vodaus.

A lot came to Wren's mind at once.

As the leader of the Wezeland Floating City, Master Anthony Vodaus is also the strongest person in Mordo, and according to common sense, he should be on the side of the Mordu nobles, and they have common interests.

Could it be that there is a rift between the two sides?

In addition, the relationship between Master Anxi Wodaus and the Duke of Silver Star seems to be good, at least the two sides have a certain amount of trust, otherwise they will not let the Duke of Silver Star interfere in the affairs of Modu.

He hurriedly asked, "Why did Master Ansiwodaus do this, did he have a conflict with the nobles of Modu?"

"I don't know, he didn't tell me too much about the situation. Duke Silver Star also seemed a little puzzled, "You go to Modu after the New Year, the sooner the better." ”

"When you arrive in Modu, you will enter the 'Wezeland Wizarding Academy', and I have already written you a letter of recommendation, which can directly allow you to become a student of the academy without having to go through the entrance test. ”

"The people over there in Anxi will also contact you. ”

"Don't reveal your relationship with Anthy on the Mordu side, but he promised me that if the mission is completed, he can take you as a student. ”

Wren couldn't help but be stunned, "Become a student of Master Anthy Wodaus!"

The promise was too tempting.

Master Anthony Vodaus is one of the three giants of the High Council, one of the few in the Empire in terms of status and strength, and has a great reputation for imparting magical knowledge.

There may not be a better teacher in the world than Master Ancy Vodaus.

However, the better the conditions, the greater the danger.

Wren's face was solemn, realizing the seriousness of this matter.

can make a Holy Soul Wizard so vigilant, even the Duke of Silver Star doesn't know the inside story, and he is involved in it, maybe he will lose his life if he is not careful.

He cheekily asked, "Your Excellency, won't you send someone to Modu with me?"

In the past, the Earl of Gramog and the Duke of Silver Star would send people to protect them, but if they didn't send people this time, they would arouse the suspicion of others.

Duke Silver Star thought about it for a moment, nodded and said, "I will send a team of secret fire guards to accompany you, plus a team of silver knights." However, they can only act outside the academy, and inside the academy, it's up to you. ”

Wren was overjoyed, and that was enough.

The members of the Secret Fire Guard are all elite wizards, and the Silver Knight is the best guard in Longshande, and with them, their safety has been greatly improved.

Later, the Duke of Silver Star explained some things that should be paid attention to, and took out the written letter of recommendation.

Before leaving, the Duke of Silver Star suddenly said, "Your family, I can assure you that they are safe in Longshande. ”

"No matter how long the nobles of Modu stretch their hands, they can't reach into Longshande. ”

"You can go in peace. ”

Wren was helpless when he heard this, this was too unlucky...... Moreover, Duke Silver Star has something to say, saying that he is protecting his family, but he is actually a hostage.

She was afraid that she didn't want to go to Modu and escaped, so she grabbed her family in her hands as a handle.

But that's fine, at least you don't have to worry about your family's safety.
