When Alan returned to Aogucheng with the body of the old magician, Elvis and they were already waiting here, they rushed back in the flying magic array, and got the news that the teacher was in distress, Elvis was as anxious as Allen, but he couldn't use the flying technique, and the speed of the flying magic array was much slower than Allen's flying technique, and he couldn't catch up with Allen at all, so he simply waited for Allen's news in the ancient city, but he didn't expect to wait for the bad news of the old magician's death.

"El, the teacher is gone. ”

Seeing Elvis, Alan hesitated for a moment but told him the bad news directly.

"I'm sorry, teacher. ”

Elvis knelt beside the old magician's body, gently stroking the teacher's pale hair, and wept silently, and Alan was also in tears beside him. Both of them have been seriously lacking in fatherly love since childhood, and they have always respected and worshiped the old magician as a father in their hearts, and at this moment, the mountain in their hearts has collapsed, how can they not be heartbroken.

"The greatest magician on the continent is gone, but his will remains, and I announce that as of today, the Olympian Kogunbang School of Magic has officially changed its name to the Academy of Magic. We will inherit the legacy of our teacher, carry up the banner of magic, let magic flourish, let the spirit of magic perpetuate, and all those who dare to stand in the way of magic will be trampled under our feet. ”

This is a short but extraordinary speech by Allen at the funeral of the old magician, and it marks the official transfer of the center of magic from Boulder City to the ancient city of Aogu. There were not many people attending the funeral, all of them were teachers and students from the middle school of magic, and listening to Alan's speech, they all felt a heavy weight on their shoulders in addition to awe, the mission given to them by the deceased old magician was so heavy and so sacred, as if history had chosen them, and they were destined to make history.

"Brother-in-law, Reinhardt has something important to see. ”

When Alan returned to Castle Ogu with a heavy heart, Steven was already waiting for him at the castle gate.

"Ask him to wait in the living room for a while, and I'll change my clothes and go over. ”

Reinhardt Allen is full of gratitude, although the reason why he provided information for himself is largely for personal gain, but without him, Allen may not even see the last face of his most respected teacher, and even the teacher's body may be desecrated by the Holy See.

"I have received reliable information that the Grand Prince is currently hiding in the castle of the Earl of Longlee, and that the Yuss Empire is organizing an army to conquer the Earl of Longlee and force him to hand over the Grand Prince or else they will be wiped out together, and it is said that the defenders of Nice have arrived in the territory of the Earl of Longlee as the vanguard. My guess is that the Count of Longley will not compromise, and that war may be imminent. ”

After the meeting, Reinhardt first expressed his condolences to Famakos before moving on to the topic.

"Brother-in-law, this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, if we can rescue the Great Prince from the encirclement of Yus's army, with his help, we will be twice as effective in dealing with the forces of Yous and the Holy See in the future. ”

Next, without Reinhardt opening his mouth, Steven had already made the purpose of his visit clear for him.

"That's exactly what I meant, Archmage. As far as I know, the castle of the Earl of Longley only has 5,000 private troops, even if he has expanded some recently, it will definitely not exceed 10,000, and now the defenders of Nice City who have conquered them have reached 20,000, plus the armies of other nearby towns, the total strength can reach more than 40,000, the Earl of Lilang is not a character who can fight well, his army has limited combat effectiveness, and it will definitely not support it for half a month, so the opportunity must not be lost and will not come again. ”

Reinhardt once again reiterated that this was a rare opportunity.

"Your Excellency, thank you very much for this news to us, but this matter is too important for me to consult with you before I can give you an answer. ”

Alan pondered for a moment and said.

"I'm just in charge of delivering the message, how to choose is your own business, and you don't need to give me an answer. ”

Reinhardt smiled strangely and stood up to take his leave.

"Tell everyone to come to the meeting at Castle Ogu. ”

Seeing Reinhardt away, Alan turned to Steven and commanded.

The core figures of the ancient city of Aogu are mainly distributed in the three places of Aogucheng, Capra Pass and Tiesong Town, Steven, the person of Aogu City, is responsible for informing, and the magic academy and Tiesong Town send people to deliver the letter in the flying magic array.

In the afternoon of the next day, everyone arrived, and a meeting to decide on the strategic adjustment of the city-state officially began. First of all, Alan informed everyone of the news that Reinhardt had brought over.

"Is the news true?"

Kevin asked first.

"Teacher Kex sacrificed to cover the eldest prince, and the news should be true. ”

Alan replied.

"I'm curious, Reinhardt is obviously an official of Yuss, why is he helping us so much?"

This time it was Elvis who asked the question.

"The Reinhardt family is betting on us. ”

Kevin said.

"If you just think that the Reinhardts are simply betting on them, you are underestimating them. In fact, they are betting on both sides at the same time, the Duke of Reinhardt supports the court of Yous, represented by the second prince, in Boulder City, and his son Obele supports us in the ancient city of Aogu, if we can rescue the eldest prince and help him restore the country, the Reinhardt family is the hero, otherwise they can also be guaranteed to be safe. ”

Steven further explained.

"Whatever their purpose, it's good to have someone to provide us with information, and now the question is what we do to choose. ”

Alan brings the conversation back to business.

"Alan, you give orders, I'll listen to you. ”

Bloom was the first to speak.

"What do other people think?"

Allen's eyes were on Kevin.

"Alan, I support going to rescue the Great Prince. Although the city-state is not yet ready to fully confront Yuz, if we can join forces with the Grand Prince, there is a good chance that there will be a split within Yus, and we have a chance to drive them out before the Holy See takes full control of Yuz. ”

Kai Wenming has experienced the murder of Fama Ques, and the relationship between Allen and the second prince's faction is already incompatible, and it is only a matter of time before he tears his face, and rescuing the eldest prince is a great opportunity.

"Uncle Allen, whether it is the independent cause of the Gossars or the southern conquest of the Holy See, with our current strength, we need an ally, and now it seems that the only one who should be the same enemy as us is the Grand Prince of Yus, so we should help him. ”

Harvey followed suit.

"Archmage, if the Great Prince joins us, the possibility of winning the support of the Northern Legion will be greatly increased, and with the Northern Legion, our strength will be doubled immediately. ”

Because the meeting involved military operations, General Bernard was also invited to the meeting, and he waited until everyone had made their statements clear.

"Since everyone's opinions are very unanimous, then we will immediately prepare for action, march to Longley Castle, and rescue the Great Prince!"

Since there was no objection, Alan no longer hesitated and made a decisive decision. Then came a military meeting. As this was the city-state's first foreign military operation, Allen was unusually cautious when making deployments. After some negotiation, he finally decided that all the boys' regiment would stay at Capra Pass to prevent the orcs from suddenly moving south, and most of Bloom's Dragonbard mercenary group and Quake's Wolf Warrior mercenary group, with a total of 40,000 horses, would go with him. Allen himself served as commander-in-chief, General Bernard as staff officer, assisted Allen in formulating marching plans and tactics, Bloom was appointed vanguard, and Kevin was appointed as general logistics officer, responsible for coordinating the army's logistical supply, and the army set out three days later, aiming at Longley Castle, five hundred miles east of the ancient city of Au.
