Chapter 58: Alternatives
Xiao Chen stood on the podium, and there were nearly two hundred mages of all sizes, and this was not all the students of the magic school, but the people who happened to have classes today, and the number of more magic apprentices were not here.
Through the probing magic of the Great Mage, he could clearly feel the full and active spiritual power of these people, he had never seen so many vibrant spiritual power light clusters in other mage towers together.
Xiao Chen propped his hands on the podium, leaning forward slightly, he had always been big-hearted, but he was a little nervous at this time. This is the first time he has made a call in his capacity as acting chair of the committee, and it remains to be seen how many of the following people will respond.
"Ladies and gentlemen, these days have been a bit difficult for our Chinese Tower, and there has been a succession of bad news, first the loss of Heimu Pass, and then the attack on the Committee, everything has taken a great toll on us, whether it is the soldiers on the front line, or the members of the Committee, their sacrifices make us sad. And the initiators of these events are the Imperials, who not only took the initiative to invade our land and kill our compatriots, but also burned and looted our territory north of Heimu Pass, creating a no-man's land.
Now, for some reason, a severe plague called the Black Water Disease has broken out in the Black Wood Pass occupied by the Imperials, and this plague is so violent that many Imperials have fallen ill. This is undoubtedly good news for us, and it fulfills our old saying: If you do too much injustice, you will be killed!"
Most of the people who were doing it didn't know about the plague in Kuroki Pass, and when they heard the whispers of applause from many people here, there was a buzz in the auditorium.
Wu Zibin also said to Umedada: "The Imperial people really deserve it, do you say that this black water disease was caused by us? Isn't the plague that broke out in Green Forest City before called that? The people who threw the plague on the Imperial people are really amazing." We sent so many mages to learn that cure before we cured the plague, so where did the Empire come from? Their army is finished. ”
"Don't be complacent too early, you don't want to think about it, if the Imperial people are solved like this, why does Brother Xiao Chen come here in a hurry to speak to us?"
"This ......," Wu Zibin felt reasonable.
Xiao Chen and the others fell down slightly, and continued: "But, do you think that the cruel Imperial people will be willing to wait for death at Heimu Pass? No, just like before, they quickly came up with a very vicious plan. The Emperor sent small teams of sick people to storm our towns, and if they came into contact with our people in the towns, they would spread the Blackwater disease to our lands again. ”
This time, there was a much louder discussion than just now. Many people were filled with righteous indignation. Even Wu Zibin clenched his fists and scolded the imperial people a few times, he looked back at Umedada, she also gritted her teeth, looked very angry, and suddenly felt a little happy, today I finally found a place to match.
"You can't let this plague in, last time I participated in the treatment of blackwater, that kind of disease is too terrible, it is difficult to treat, as long as you are not careful, you will lose your life. A mage commented.
"Chairman Xiao, you must have a way to stop them, right?" someone below asked, "Our escort should be able to stop these people, right?"
"I do think of a solution, but not with the Guards alone. Our convoy has a very limited number of troops to stop and destroy the large groups, but there is no way to track down the small groups of enemies who have infiltrated each of them. It is up to all of you here that we will be able to win this war against the plague! That is why I am here today to speak to you.
I need all of you here to learn how to cure the Blackwater, and then join in the fight against the infiltrating Blackwater patients. We need a sufficient number of mages to form small teams to be stationed in every town and village, and cooperate with the local village cadres and militia to strengthen the defense of villages and towns. When a small group of enemies comes, they cooperate with the militia to annihilate them, and if someone in the village is infected with black water disease, they will be treated on the spot.
We will distribute you with the newly developed portable small communication array, which you can use to communicate with neighboring villages and towns to form a large network, support each other in case of difficulties, and notify the nearby escort team in time if there is danger. We will drown all the enemies who dare to rush into our territory in the vast sea of people's war. ”
Some of the mages below listened with enthusiasm, some listened with doubts, Xiao Chen could clearly look at the hundred states below, and to his relief, those who looked excited and enthusiastic were much more than those who looked worried and scared.
"The mages of our China Tower are different from other magic towers. We have never been high-ranking masters, but laborers who come from the people and return to the people. We are mages, workers, peasants, scholars, and warriors, and we are both the strongest shield and the sharpest spear when the enemy invades our land and endangers our people. Now that the fathers and elders who are providing for you need you, how many of you are willing to stand up?"
"I, I do!"
"I'm going, I'm going to destroy the invaders of the Empire!"
"Count me in. ”
"After learning so much combat magic, it's finally useful!"
The crowd below was excited, and one of the mages raised their hands in the air! In the morning, I saw that even those who had just seemed a little hesitant and frightened, many of them raised their hands and became eager to try. Whether it's forced by circumstance or their own change of mind. At least they don't want to be worthy of the title of Mage of the Tower of China.
At this time, Umedada's crisp voice overshadowed the noise of the audience, "Brother Xiao Chen, I also want to contribute, can I also participate?"
The room suddenly fell silent, and all eyes stared at this little girl who was only as tall as people's chests, and the principal of the magic school stood up and said, "Umedada, you are still too young, we don't have such requirements for the children in your class." ”
"But I'm a mid-level peak mage, my strength is stronger than most of the people present, whether it's killing enemies or healing, I should be more handy than them, why don't you let me participate?
Will the enemy let me go on the battlefield because I am a child? Since I won't, then I should also participate in this battle!"
