The town of Nota is less than a hundred miles from the city of Badel, and there is no dangerous terrain between the two cities, and it is a plain with a flat river. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

At night, Newman walked into an alley, reconfirmed that he was not being followed, and only then opened a door and dodged in.

As soon as he entered the room, he walked quickly to his desk, grabbed a pen, pulled out a piece of paper, and began to write.

"Dear Lord Martin, there have been some very disturbing changes in the town of Nota in the past two days. Supplies from the city were being sent to a nearby camp, the town had begun a curfew, and all roads in and out of the city had been checkpointed. After a few inquiries, I believe that an army of more than 10,000 men has arrived near the town of Nota, and when they have finished repairing and resupplying, they will probably immediately withdraw their camp and cross the copper line......"

He finished as quickly as he could, and after making sure that nothing was missing, he rolled the letter into a small roll, placed it in a slender metal cylinder, and closed the lid tightly.

With all this done, Newman quickly climbed up to the top attic, pushed open the window, and slashed his wrist with a knife.

Soon a swarm of bats flew in the distance, and Newman waved his arms and sprinkled his own blood into the air, and the swarm of bats swept past the window and devoured his blood.

When the bats circled back again, Newman tossed the metal cylinder in his hand, and one of the bats stretched out its claws and grabbed the metal cylinder. Then, the bats flew north together.

The bats drank Newman's blood, and if the bat holding the metal cylinder had an accident, the other bat would take the metal cylinder and continue its flight north. As long as the bats are not all dead, they will relay one by one until the metal canister is delivered to Martin in Berdel City.

Newman knew he had done everything he had to do. In the past few days, his actions have aroused suspicion, and next, he is ready to flee.

......

Upper East Side, Badel City.

Moli had returned from the sorcerer's ruins a day earlier, and he had only brought back two things from the ruins, the first being the blade made of strange metal, and the second being the carved stone found in the Great Tower.

He had been thinking about how to use what he had found in the carved stone, and his head ached faintly when he thought about it, and he was wondering if he should sleep first, when there was a knock at the door.

Opening the door, Moli saw Rogie standing in the doorway, dragging a huge box in her hand.

“...... What is this?" he asked curiously.

"Get out of the way! Go in first! Princess Ben will let you see! Oh, hehehe!"

- No! This guy is very wrong, I guess he has been hit by something, right?

Mo Li looked at the girl whose demeanor was completely different from her usual demeanor, and couldn't help but think worriedly.

But Rogie didn't pay any attention to him, dragged the box straight into the room, opened the lock on the box, and lifted the lid with a "brush".

"Look!"

"What's going on? Wow!

Mo Li first glanced at the box in a somewhat strange way, and then his eyes widened in surprise.

The box, which was large enough to fit the girl herself, was filled with stacks of blood essence.

"There are 30,000 blood essences...... No, forty thousand?"

"Fifty thousand!" the girl triumphantly held out five fingers to him.

"Fifty thousand blood essences!" It was the first time Mo Li had seen so many blood essences in front of him, you must know that even if it was the Brotherhood that dominated Birdel City, its net income in a month was less than fifty thousand blood essences.

"So many ......"

"And that's just a small part!" the girl smirked. "Five percent of the annual tax revenue of Bordall City is now mine!"

Mo Li was stunned for a moment, and immediately understood what Luo Ji meant. Now that Martin and the entire city council have chosen to support Rogie, of course, not just words, but even financial support is only part of it. In the future, when Rogie dismantles the blood spell and returns to take the position of head of the family, Boydel City is likely to send troops to help.

"Five percent of the tax! With the affluence of Birdell City, there will never be a shortage of money again. Mo Li said, and couldn't help but sigh in his heart: I finally feel like a princess.

"Hehe, didn't I say I'll have a lot of money soon? That's not a lie. Oh, by the way, do I still owe you five thousand blood essence, just take it!" the girl crossed her hands on her hips, and her tone was bold, completely looking like an upstart.

"Forget it!" he hurriedly waved his hand. "It's useless for me to ask for so much blood essence, by the way, then we're going to the Far East, and we won't need so much blood essence along the way, right?"

"What if I want to eat?" said the girl.

Mo Li suddenly realized, he almost forgot this, everyone else spends money, and the one in front of him is eating money.

It's too extravagant......

"When are we leaving?" he asked.

"If you don't have anything else to do, the sooner the better. Martin has offered to pick a few elite members from the army to help us, what do you think?"

Mo Li smiled after hearing this: "Grace also sent someone to me to ask if I need to transfer a few experienced mercenaries to help." However, I refused, the team is too large to attract attention, and the mercenaries sent to me by Grace are only three or four levels of Blood Guard, and if there is a situation that neither of us can handle, no matter how many people there are, they will not be able to cope with it. ”

Rogie nodded and said, "I think the same way, then I will reject Martin's side." In that case, we can leave tomorrow, how about it?"

"Okay, let's go tomorrow. Mo Li said dryly.

As soon as the words fell, there was another knock on the door.

The two looked at each other, both indicating that they didn't know what was going on, and Moli walked over and opened the door, only to find Martin's lieutenant standing outside the door.

"Lord Martin has invited Her Royal Highness the Princess and Lord Moli to the City Lord's Mansion, and there is a very urgent matter to discuss with the two of you. The adjutant bowed and said.

Mo Li and Luo Ji exchanged a look, both of them were a little strange, what else could there be urgent at this time? Could it be that Andrea has something new to do?

"Then we'll go now. Without much hesitation, Rogie said to the adjutant.

"Okay. The carriage was already prepared downstairs. ”

It seemed that the matter was indeed urgent, and as soon as the two got into the carriage, the coachman drove the carriage all the way, and in a blink of an eye they arrived at the castle lord's mansion.

Led by the adjutant, the two came to Martin's office, entered the room, and saw another person besides Martin.

It's Grace.

How did these two get together? Mo Xuan was a little strange, although he didn't know the specific situation, he could also guess that these two people didn't deal with each other very much, what was it that brought the bright side of Birdel City and the boss in the dark together?

"Your Royal Highness Princess, Lord Moli. Seeing the two of them enter, Martin and Grace both bowed slightly and saluted.

"What's the matter?" asked Rogie straight to the point.

Martin took a deep breath and said in a deep voice: "Just now, I received a secret report from Nota Town, the army of the Morning Star Empire is gathering near Lota Town, and it is estimated that it will soon pull out the camp, cross the copper carving line, and attack Bordall City!"

There was silence in the room for a moment.

After a long while, Luo Ji said slowly: "It seems that the Prayer Star Sect finally knew that I was impeached, but I didn't expect them to move so fast!"

Martin nodded, and said, "I guess they've been hiding an army near the border, I'm afraid it's just for this day, it's really a big deal! If we hadn't planted a spy in Lotta, I'm afraid we wouldn't have found out until their army drove down the city!"

"How many of them are there?" asked Rogie again.

This time it was Grace who replied: "In the past few days, the supplies of Lotta Town have been continuously transported to the army, and the Brotherhood has channels in the human chamber of commerce, and through the supply situation, it can be estimated that the total number is between 10,000 and 15,000, but the knights should only be 2,000 people." ”

"That's not a lot. Rogie sighed. "I remember that the defenders of Bordall City were only five thousand?"

"If some reserve forces are used, there are about 6,000 to 7,000 people, and if they just hold on behind closed doors, it will probably be enough. Martin said with a wry smile. "But the key is that we have received exact information, the other party's leader this time is the Great Star Prayer Master Weiss, and there seems to be a son of the Star Prayer, not to mention anything else, as long as we can't come up with a way to deal with this Great Star Prayer Master, what kind of closed-door defense will become a piece of paper, and the other party can use magic to blast open the city gate and rush directly into the city. ”

Mo Li listened to the conversation of several people, but there was another thing in his heart - since the "Seven Days War" a hundred years ago, neither the Morning Star Empire nor the Blood Clan dared to send such a large army to cross the copper line, and now ...... Does the Prayer of the Stars already feel that the Conjuretors Guild will not appear again?

It's true that the Conjurer's Guild hasn't been seen again for a long time, but the Sorcerers are still on this continent.

What is the mission of the puppet?

- Manifest the authority of the Conjurer's Guild to prohibit the Morningstar Empire and the Bloodlines from crossing the Copper Engraving for non-peaceful purposes.

Mo Li thought of the carved stone he had brought back from the ruins, and he hadn't thought clearly about how to use the power in it.

But now, he has come up with the answer.
